               Section 1 - Registrant's Business and Operations

Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

      On March 13, 2008, a First Amendment (the "Amendment") to the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") among Southern
California Edison Company ("SCE"), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
Administrative Agent, Citicorp North America, Inc., as Syndication Agent, and
Credit Suisse First Boston, Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., and Wells Fargo
Bank, N.A., as Documentation Agents, and the lenders thereto, became
effective.

      The Credit Agreement continues to provide for a $2.5 billion revolving
credit facility at interest rates which are specified in the Credit Agreement
and remain unchanged.  The Amendment extends the current termination date
under the Credit Agreement for one year, from February 23, 2012 to February
25, 2013.  In addition, SCE is permitted thereunder a total of five extension
options (four remaining after the extension implemented by the Amendment),
with an outside termination date of February 23, 2017.  The Amendment further
revises the time periods for notices relating to requests to extend the
termination date.

      The Amendment also establishes a $200,000,000 swingline sub-facility
with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. acting as the initial swingline lender.

      Finally, the Amendment provides SCE with additional Eurodollar interest
period options, and a shortened notice period for requesting Eurodollar loans.

      Many of the investment banking firms that are a party to the Credit
Agreement or their affiliates have in the past performed, and may in the
future from time to time perform, investment banking, financial advisory,
lending and/or commercial banking services for SCE and certain of its
subsidiaries and affiliates, for which service they have in the past
received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation and
reimbursement of expenses.

      The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the full text of the Amendment, filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated
by reference herein.
