Compensation and Benefit Plans Employee Savings Plan        A 401(k) plan is maintained to supplement eligible employees' retirement income. The plan received contributions from EME of $13 million in 2009 and $15 million in 2008 and $12 million in 2007. Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions Pension Plans        Noncontributory defined benefit pension plans (the non-union plan has a cash balance feature) cover most employees meeting minimum service requirements. The expected contributions (all by the employer) are approximately $22 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.        Volatile market conditions have affected the value of the trusts established to fund its future long-term pension benefits. The market value of the investments (reflecting investment returns, contributions and benefit payments) within the plan trusts declined significantly during 2008. This reduction in the value of plan assets will result in increased future expense and increased future contributions. Improved market conditions in 2009 partially offset the impacts of the 2008 market conditions. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 establishes new minimum funding standards and restricts plans underfunded by more than 20% from providing lump sum distributions and adopting amendments that increase plan liabilities.        Information on plan assets and benefit obligations is shown below: <div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt; PADDING-LEFT: 0pt; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 10%; WIDTH:

EME selects its discount rate by performing a yield curve analysis. This analysis determines the equivalent discount rate on projected cash flows, matching the timing and amount of expected benefit payments. Two corporate yield curves were considered, Citigroup and AON. Plan Assets Description of Pension and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions Investment Strategies        The investment of plan assets is overseen by a fiduciary investment committee. Plan assets are invested using a combination of asset classes, and may have active and passive investment strategies within asset classes. In 2009, the trusts' investment committee approved changes in target asset allocations. Target allocations for pension plan assets are 34% for United States equities, 17% for non-United States equities, 9% for alternative investments, and 40% for fixed income. EME employs multiple investment management firms. Investment managers within each asset class cover a range of investment styles and approaches. Risk is managed through diversification among multiple asset classes, managers, styles, and securities. Plan, asset class and individual manager performance are measured against targets. EME also monitors the stability of its investments managers' organizations.        Allowable investment types include: <dl compact="compact"> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">United States Equities: Common and preferred stocks of large, medium, and small companies which are predominantly United States-based. </dd> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">Non-United States Equities: Equity securities issued by companies domiciled outside the United States and in depository receipts which represent ownership of securities of non-United States companies. </dd> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">Alternative Investments: <ul> <li style="list-style: none"> <dl compact="compact"> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">Private Equities: Limited partnerships that invest in non-publicly traded entities. The pension target allocation is 6%. </dd> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">Hedge Funds: Funds that have target return and risk characteristics that are diversified among global equity, fixed income and currency markets. There is no systematic exposure to any market, and investments are made in liquid instruments according to relative opportunities within and across markets. The pension target allocation is 3%. </dd></dl></li></ul></dd></dl> <dl> <dt style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: -11pt; FONT-FAMILY: times"></dt> <dd style="FONT-FAMILY: times">Fixed Income: Fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by the United States government, non-United States governments, government agencies and instrumentalities including municipal bonds, mortgage backed securities and corporate debt obligations. A small portion of the fixed income position may be held in debt securities that are below investment grade. </dd></dl>        Asset class portfolio weights are permitted to range within plus or minus 3%. Where approved by the fiduciary investment committee, futures contracts are used for portfolio rebalancing and to reallocate portfolio cash positions. Where authorized, a few of the plans' investment managers employ limited use of derivatives, including futures contracts, options, options on futures and interest rate swaps in place of direct investment in securities to gain efficient exposure to markets. Derivatives are not used to leverage the plans or any portfolios. Determination of the Expected Long-Term Rate of Return on Assets        The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets assumption is based on the long-term target asset allocation for plan assets and capital markets return forecasts for asset classes employed. Capital Markets Return Forecasts        Capital markets return forecasts are based on long-term strategic planning assumptions from an independent firm which uses its research, modeling and judgment to forecast rates of return for global asset classes. In addition, a separate analysis of expected returns is conducted. The estimated total return for fixed income is based on historic long-term United States government bonds data. The estimated total return for intermediate United States government bonds is based on historic and projected data. The estimated rate of return for United States and non-United States equity includes a 3% premium over the estimated total return for intermediate United States government bonds. The rate of return for private equity and hedge funds is estimated to be a 3% premium over public equity, reflecting a premium for higher volatility and illiquidity. Fair Value of Plan Assets        The plan assets for EME pension are included in the Southern California Edison Company Retirement Plan Trust (Master Trust) assets which include investments in equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, other fixed-income securities, common/collective funds, mutual funds, other investment entities, foreign exchange and interest rate contracts, and partnership/joint ventures. Equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, mutual and money market funds are classified as Level 1 as fair value is determined by observable, unadjusted quoted market prices in active or highly liquid and transparent markets. Common/collective funds are valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held. Although common/collective funds are determined by observable prices, they are classified as Level 2 because they trade in markets that are less active and transparent. The fair value of the underlying investments in equity mutual funds and equity common/collective funds are based upon stock-exchange prices. The fair value of the underlying investments in fixed-income common/collective funds, fixed-income mutual funds and other fixed income securities including municipal bonds are based on evaluated prices that reflect significant observable market information such as reported trades, actual trade information of similar securities, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, bids, offers and relevant credit information. Foreign exchange and interest rate contracts are classified as Level 2 because the values are based on observable prices but are not traded on an exchange. Future contracts trade on an exchange and therefore classified as Level 1. One of the partnerships is classified as Level 2 since this investment can be readily redeemed at NAV and the underlying investments are liquid publicly traded fixed-income securities which have observable prices. The remaining partnerships/joint ventures are classified as Level 3 because fair value is determined primarily based upon management estimates of future cash flows. Other investment entities are valued similarly to common collective funds and are, therefore, classified as Level 2. Substantially all of the registered investment companies are either mutual or money market funds and are, therefore, classified as Level 1 for the reasons noted previously. The remaining fund in this category is readily redeemable at NAV, classified as Level 2, and discussed further in footnote 7 of the following pension master trust table. Pension Plan        The following table sets forth the Master Trust investments that were accounted for at fair value as of December 31, 2009 by asset class and level within the fair value hierarchy:

No additional awards were granted under Edison International's prior stock-based compensation plans on or after April 26, 2007, with all subsequent issuances being made under the new plan. The maximum number of shares of Edison International's common stock authorized to be issued or transferred pursuant to awards under the incentive plan as adopted was 8.5 million shares, plus the number of any shares subject to awards issued under Edison International's prior plans and outstanding as of April 26, 2007, which expire, cancel or terminate without being exercised or shares being issued (carry-over shares). On April 23, 2009, Edison International's shareholders approved certain amendments to the 2007 Performance Plan increasing such authorization by 13 million shares, resulting in an aggregate share limit of 21.5 million shares, plus the carry-over shares. As of December 31, 2009, Edison International had approximately 13 million shares remaining for future issuance under its stock-based compensation plans.        Total stock-based compensation expense (reflected in administrative and general on the consolidated statements of income) was $8 million, $7 million and $10 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of income was $3 million, $3 million and $4 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Excess tax benefits included in "excess tax benefits related to stock-based awards" in the financing section of the consolidated statements of cash flows were less than a million, $3 million and $14 million in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Stock Options        Under various plans, Edison International has granted stock options at exercise prices equal to the average of the high and low price, and beginning in 2007, at the closing price at the grant date, Edison International may grant stock options and other awards related to or with a value derived from its common stock to directors and certain employees. Options generally expire 10 years after the grant date and vest over a period of four years of continuous service, with expense recognized evenly over the requisite service period, except for awards granted to retirement-eligible participants, as discussed in Note 1Stock-Based Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options was $3 million, $6 million and $6 million in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.        Stock options granted in 2003 through 2006 accrue dividend equivalents for the first five years of the option term. Stock options granted in 2007 and later have no dividend equivalent rights except for options granted to Edison International's Board of Directors in 2007. Unless transferred to nonqualified deferral plan accounts, dividend equivalents accumulate without interest. Dividend equivalents are paid in cash after the vesting date. Edison International has discretion to pay certain dividend equivalents in shares of Edison International common stock. Additionally, Edison International will substitute cash awards to the extent necessary to pay tax withholding or any government levies.        The fair value for each option granted was determined as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires various assumptions noted in the following table. <div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt; PADDING-LEFT: 0pt; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 20%; WIDTH: 60%;

The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on a zero coupon U.S. Treasury issued STRIPS (separate trading of registered interest and principal of securities) whose maturity equals the option's expected term on the measurement date. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of Edison International's common stock for the lesser of 1) the period from January 1, 2003 through the last month-end prior to the grant date, or 2) the length of the options expected term. The volatility period used was 84 months, 72 months and 36 months at December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.        A summary of the status of Edison International's stock options granted to EME employees is as follows: <div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt;

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.4 million, $6 million and $32 million during 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. At December 31, 2009, there was $4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options, net of expected forfeitures. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two-and-a-half years. The fair value of options vested during 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $3 million, $4 million and $6 million, respectively.        Cash outflows to purchase Edison International shares in the open market to settle stock option exercises by EME employees were $1 million, $11 million and $49 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Cash inflows from EME employees to exercise stock options was $1 million, $5 million and $19 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The tax benefit realized from options exercised was $0.2 million, $2 million and $11 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Performance Shares        A target number of contingent performance shares were awarded to executives in March 2007, March 2008 and March 2009, and vest at the end of December 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. Performance shares awarded contain dividend equivalent reinvestment rights. An additional number of target contingent performance shares will be credited based on dividends on Edison International common stock for which the ex-dividend date falls within the performance period. The vesting of Edison International's performance shares is dependent upon a market condition and three years of continuous service subject to a prorated adjustment for employees who are terminated under certain circumstances or retire, but payment cannot be accelerated. The market condition is based on Edison International's common stock performance relative to the performance of a specified group of peer companies at the end of a three-calendar-year period. The number of performance shares earned is determined based on Edison International's ranking among these companies. Performance shares earned are settled half in cash and half in common stock; however, Edison International has discretion under certain of the awards to pay the half subject to cash settlement in common stock. Edison International also has discretion to pay certain dividend equivalents in Edison International common stock. Additionally, cash awards are substituted to the extent necessary to pay tax withholding or any government levies. The portion of performance shares that can be settled in cash is classified as a share-based liability award. The fair value of these shares is remeasured at each reporting period and the related compensation expense is adjusted. The portion of performance shares payable in common stock is classified as a share-based equity award. Compensation expense related to these shares is based on the grant-date fair value. Performance share expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the fair values determined, except for awards granted to retirement-eligible participants. Stock-based compensation expense (benefit) associated with performance shares was $1 million, $(3) million and $3 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.        Cash outflows to purchase Edison International shares in the open market to settle performance shares classified as equity awards were $2 million and $5 million for 2008 and 2007, respectively. There were no performance shares settled in 2009. In 2007 Edison International changed the classification of the cash paid for the settlement of performance shares from common stock to retained earnings to conform with the classification for settlement of stock option exercises. The tax benefit realized from settlement of performance shares classified as equity awards for 2008 and 2007 was $1 million and $2 million, respectively.        The performance shares' fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. The Monte Carlo simulation valuation model requires a risk-free interest rate and an expected volatility rate assumption. The risk-free interest rate is based on the daily spot rate on the grant or valuation date on U.S. Treasury zero coupon issue or STRIPS (separate trading of registered interest and principal of securities) with terms equal to the remaining term of the performance shares and is used as proxy for the expected return for the specified group of companies. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of Edison International's (and the specified group of companies') common stock for the most recent 36 months. Historical volatility for each company in the specified group is obtained from a financial data services provider.        The risk-free interest rate used to determine the grant date fair values for the 2009, 2008 and 2007 performance shares classified as share-based equity awards was 1.3%, 3.9% and 4.8%, respectively. Edison International's expected volatility used to determine the grant date fair values for the 2009, 2008 and 2007 performance shares classified as share-based equity awards was 21.4%, 17.4% and 16.5%, respectively. The portion of performance shares classified as share-based liability awards are revalued at each reporting period. The risk-free interest rate used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2009 was 1.1% and 0.5%, respectively, for the 2009 and 2008 performance shares. The expected volatility rate used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2009 was 21.9%. The risk-free interest rate used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2008 was 0.8% and 0.4%, respectively, for the 2008 and 2007 performance shares. The expected volatility rate used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2008 was 19.2%. The risk-free interest rate and expected volatility rate used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2007 was 4.3% and 17.1%, respectively, for 2007 and 2006 performance shares. The total intrinsic value of performance shares settled during 2008 and 2007 was $5 million and $12 million, respectively, which included cash paid to settle the performance shares classified as liability awards for 2008 and 2007 of $2 million and $4 million, respectively. There were no performance shares settled in 2009. At December 31, 2009, there was $0.3 million (based on the December 31, 2009 fair value of performance shares classified as liability awards) of total unrecognized compensation cost related to performance shares. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately one year. The fair value of performance shares that vested during 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $0.2 million, $0.7 million and $4 million, respectively.        A summary of the status of Edison International nonvested performance shares granted to EME employees and classified as equity awards is as follows: <div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt;
