Such interest shall be paid to the person in whose name this Bond is registered at the close of business on (1) the business day immediately preceding the Series 2019C Payment Date if this Bond is in book-entry only form, or (2) the 15th calendar day before each Series 2019C Payment Date if this Bond is not in book-entry only form.

indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the “Trust Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the property, rights and franchises thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights of the holders of this Bond and of the Trustees in respect of such security, and the terms, restrictions and conditions upon which the bonds are issued and secured.

This Bond may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time prior to its maturity, after notice given in writing (including by facsimile transmission or electronic mail) to the registered owner hereof at the last address shown on the registry books of the Company, by the Company or The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the date fixed for redemption, at a redemption price equal to (a) if the date fixed for redemption is before May 1, 2029, the greater of (1) the principal amount redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (excluding any interest accrued from the immediately preceding Series 2019C Payment Date to the date fixed for redemption) on this Bond being redeemed, discounted to the date fixed for redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield plus 15 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption and (b) if the date fixed for redemption is on or after May 1, 2029, 100 percent of the principal amount of the Series 2019C Bonds being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption. 

 “Treasury Yield” means, for any date fixed for redemption, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the date fixed for redemption.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term to stated maturity of the Series 2019C Bonds to be redeemed (assuming for such purpose that the Series 2019C Bonds mature on May 1, 2029) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Series 2019C Bonds to be redeemed (assuming for such purpose that the Series 2019C Bonds mature on May 1, 2029).

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, for any date fixed for redemption, the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the date fixed for redemption, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or its successor or, if such firm or its successor, as applicable, is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, one of the remaining Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (1) J.P.

If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2019C Bonds, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, will select the particular bonds to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method of random selection, if any, that The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate; provided, however, that as long as this Bond is held with a depositary, any such selection shall be in accordance with such depositary’s applicable procedures.

Any notice of redemption, at the Company’s option, may state that the redemption will be conditional upon receipt by the paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Series 2019C Bonds to be redeemed and that if the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no force and effect and the Company will not be required to redeem this Bond.

The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for the purpose, among others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or in the performance or observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and such default shall continue as provided in the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

This Bond is transferable only on the books of the Company at any of the places designated above for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, by the registered owner or by an attorney of such owner duly authorized in writing, on surrender hereof properly endorsed, and upon such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however, that, among other things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all bonds outstanding under the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired, (2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the Trust Indenture on any of the trust property.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or any part thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the Trust Indenture, against any past, present or 

6

future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions, or by virtue of any statue or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or because of any representation or inference arising from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor or successor company, or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly released.

This Bond shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the execution of the certificate of authentication hereon of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, or its successor in trust.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Southern California Edison Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name by its President or one of its Vice Presidents and its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, as of August __, 2019, such execution and attestation to be by manual or facsimile signatures.
