and to retire as an employee of SCE, effective December&nbsp;31, 2005, and (ii)&nbsp;a Consulting Agreement (the &#147;Consulting Agreement&#148;), pursuant to which Mr.&nbsp;Foster would continue to serve as a consultant to SCE for a three-year

President (except as modified by the Retirement Agreement). Mr.&nbsp;Foster will be paid an additional $160,000 on or about October&nbsp;1, 2005, and his bonus percentage for 2005 will be 65% (his normal target bonus percentage) multiplied by the

&#147;Effective Date&#148;) and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 5, shall end on the third anniversary of the Effective Date. The scope of such work may be spelled out in one or more purchase orders or engagement letters. The
Company will give Consultant reasonable prior notice of its need for his services and will make reasonable scheduling accommodations to recognize Consultant&#146;s other business and personal activities and plans. The Company&#146;s CEO may request
that Consultant provide services hereunder for an affiliate of the Company; but Consultant&#146;s consent would be required for any assignment that would require a substantial amount of time outside of Southern California. </FONT></P> <P

the year on the projects in which he was engaged under this Agreement. In determining whether such a bonus should be paid and the amount of any such bonus, the CEO may consider the Consultant&#146;s level of effort, the degree of difficulty and
