EDISON INTERNATIONAL

​

EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

​

As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2024

​

NOW, THEREFORE, the Edison International Executive Incentive Compensation Plan has been established by the Compensation and Executive Personnel Committee of the Board of Directors originally effective January 1, 1997, and made available to eligible executives of EIX and its participating affiliates subject to the following terms and conditions:

​

1. Definitions. When capitalized herein, the following terms are defined as indicated:

​

“Board” means the Board of Directors of a Company (or a committee thereof acting within its delegated authority).

​

​

​

“SCE” means Southern California Edison Company.

​

2. Eligibility. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to be eligible for any incentive award with respect to a particular calendar year (the “Performance Year”), an individual must (a) have been employed by the Company as a Participant for the entire Performance Year, and (b) continue to be employed by EIX, SCE, or one of their respective subsidiaries through the date that the Company pays incentive awards under the Plan with respect to that Performance Year generally (which, as provided in Section 5 below, occurs within two and one-half months following the end of the Performance Year) (the “Vesting Date”). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, in no event will a Participant or any other individual be entitled to, or be considered to have earned all or any portion of, an incentive award under the Plan with respect to a particular Performance Year unless (x) the Participant satisfies both of the eligibility requirements set forth in the preceding sentence and (y) solely with respect to a Participant who is a Covered Participant, the Covered Participant does not engage in Misconduct during or following the particular Performance Year.

​

​ | 2 | ​

​

In the event an individual first becomes a Participant after the start of the Performance Year but the individual otherwise satisfies the eligibility requirements set forth in the preceding paragraph, a pro-rata award may be made at the discretion of the Committee or an individual (and, if applicable, Board) having the authority to approve the Participant's award pursuant to Section 5 below. Pro-rata awards may be distributed to Participants who during the Performance Year retired, died, or had their employment transferred between a Company and a non-participating affiliate of EIX. A full award may be distributed to a Participant who was employed by the Company as a Participant for the entire Performance Year but who was not employed by EIX, SCE, or one of their respective subsidiaries through the applicable Vesting Date due to retirement or death. The determination of whether any pro-rata or full award will be paid in any such circumstances will be determined in the discretion of the Committee or an individual (and, if applicable, Board) having the authority to approve the Participant's award pursuant to Section 5 below had such retirement, death, or transfer of employment not occurred.

​

3. Company Performance Goals. The CEOs will develop recommended Company performance goals. In consultation with the EIX CEO, the Committee will select specific performance goals for the Performance Year. The performance goals should represent relatively optimistic, but reasonably attainable goals, the accomplishment of which is intended to contribute significantly to the attainment of Company strategic objectives. In the event a Covered Officer provides services to a Company that is not such Covered Officer’s employer (the “Non-Employing Entity”), then the Committee may delegate to the EIX CEO the selection of specific performance goals of the Non-Employing Entity with respect to such Covered Officer but only to the extent that the Committee determines that such specific performance goals for such officer may be based on the performance of the Non-Employing Entity.

​

4. Individual Incentive Award Levels. Company, organizational and individual performance relative to the pre-established goals will determine the award a Participant can receive. The Committee, the CEO of a Company, or a designee, as permitted in accordance with the Committee Charter or other applicable controlling document, will establish target award levels for the Performance Year as a percentage of base salary at the time performance goals are set (and/or at such later time when the individual first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan or is eligible to receive a higher/lower target award level under the Plan because of a promotion/demotion or other approved reason). If a Participant is promoted after the Committee (or the EIX CEO, to the extent the selection of performance goals has been delegated to the EIX CEO) finalizes the performance goals for the Performance Year for purposes of Section 3 above (generally, the Committee meeting held in February each year) or otherwise becomes entitled to receive a higher/lower base salary and/or target award level under the Plan after such Committee action, that Participant’s incentive award for that Performance Year may be calculated based on the Participant's weighted average base salary and target award level, taking into account the base salary and target award level during the portion of the Performance Year preceding the promotion and/or change in base salary and/or target award level, and the base salary and target award level(s) during the remainder of such Performance Year. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Plan to the contrary, if a participant is on a disability leave for all or

​ | 3 | ​

​

a portion of a Performance Year, any incentive award for the Participant for that Performance Year will (unless otherwise required by applicable law) be calculated by excluding the Participant’s base salary for the period(s) on such leave (for clarity, compensation pursuant to a disability plan or program is never taken into account for determining an award under this Plan). All awards are discretionary.

​

5. Approval and Payment of Individual Awards. During the first quarter of the year following the completion of the Performance Year, the EIX CEO, in consultation with the other CEOs, will assess the degree to which individual and corporate goals and objectives have been achieved. Incentive award recommendations for Participants will be developed. The Committee will receive a report from the EIX CEO as to Company performance, will deliberate on management recommendations, and will approve awards for Covered Officers. Awards to other Participants will be approved by the CEO of the respective Company, or a designee, as permitted in accordance with the Committee Charter or other applicable controlling document; provided, however, that if the selection of performance goals for a Company has been delegated to the EIX CEO, then the awards to officers of that Company who are not also officers of EIX or SCE will require the approval of the EIX CEO and the Board of the applicable Company. All decisions of the Committee, the EIX CEO, and the other CEOs regarding individual incentive awards will be final and conclusive (in the case of the EIX CEO and the other CEOs, as to awards for which the particular CEO has the authority to approve).

​

Incentive award payments will be made as soon as practical following the appropriate approval (and in all events within two and one-half months after the end of the Performance Year to which the award relates). Payment will be made in cash except to the extent an eligible Participant has previously elected to defer payment of some or all of the award pursuant to the terms of a deferred compensation plan of the Company. Award payments made will be subject to any income or payroll tax withholding or other deductions as may be required by Federal, State or local law. Any such payment shall be deemed an unearned advance, and, with respect to a Covered Participant, any such unearned advance shall be subject to recoupment pursuant to Section 15 of this Plan. Any incentive award amount deferred pursuant to the terms of a deferred compensation plan of the Company by a Covered Participant shall be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 15 of the Plan. By continuing to be employed by EIX, SCE, or one of their respective subsidiaries after the terms of this Plan have been communicated to a Covered Participant, such Covered Participant agrees and consents to the enforcement and implementation of the provisions set forth in Section 15 of the Plan without further consent or action being required of the Covered Participant, and the Covered Participant further agrees that none of the Companies (nor any of their respective subsidiaries) shall indemnify such Covered Participant against the loss of any amounts recouped pursuant to Section 15 of the Plan.

​

Awards under this Plan will not be considered to be salary or other compensation for the purpose of computing benefits to which the Participant may be entitled under any qualified Company retirement plan, including but not limited to the SCE Retirement Plan, the Edison 401(k) Savings Plan, or any other plan or arrangement of the Company for the benefit of its employees if such plan or arrangement is a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the

​ | 4 | ​

​

Code and is a trust exempt from Federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code. Awards may be considered compensation for nonqualified plan purposes depending on the terms and conditions of the particular nonqualified plan.

​

6. No Right to Assets. An award payable to a Participant under this Plan shall constitute an unsecured general obligation of the Participant’s employer (EIX or its affiliate, as the case may be, or, in the case of a former employee, the affiliate that last employed the Participant) (the applicable entity, the "Employer"), and no special fund or trust will be created, nor will any notes or securities be issued with respect to any awards. Participants will be no more than unsecured general creditors of the Employer with no special or prior right to any assets of the Employer for payment of any obligations hereunder. No Participant (or beneficiary of a Participant) will have a claim to benefits from any other affiliate. EIX is not a guarantor of the benefit obligations of other participating affiliates. By participating in, and by accepting any benefits under, this Plan, Participants consent to EIX sponsorship of this Plan, but acknowledge that EIX is not a guarantor of the benefit obligations of other participating affiliates. Each affiliate is responsible for payment of the accrued benefits under this Plan with respect to its own employees subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the definition of “Employer” to the contrary, and at the sole discretion of EIX, EIX may determine that for purposes of benefits payable under this Plan, EIX shall be deemed to be the Employer obligated to pay such benefits. Such an election by EIX may be made, in EIX’s sole discretion, as to all Plan benefits, as to only certain benefits, and/or as to only certain affiliates or Participants, and will be deemed an assumption of the specified benefit obligations of the applicable affiliates. Subject to the further provisions hereof, EIX will be solely obligated to pay any such benefits and no Participant (or beneficiary) will have a claim as to any other affiliate with respect to such benefits. Upon an election by EIX under this Section 6, benefits covered by the election will be paid from the general funds of EIX (and not the affiliate that would otherwise pay the benefits), provided that EIX may require that as between EIX and the affiliate that would otherwise pay such benefits, the affiliate will be responsible to pay EIX for the assumption of such obligations in accordance with funding arrangements determined by EIX at the time of election or any time thereafter. To the extent such affiliate fails to comply with such funding arrangements or obtains any refund or offset of payments made from the affiliate to EIX without the consent of EIX, the affiliate that would otherwise be responsible for payment of benefits to the applicable Participant will remain responsible for such benefits. EIX will effectuate any such election pursuant to this Section 6 by providing written notice to the Committee and the applicable affiliates regarding the effective date of such election, and the benefits, affiliates and Participants for which the election is applicable. The funding arrangements established by EIX at the time of its election, or from time to time thereafter, will set forth the method by which the affiliates will remit funds to EIX in consideration of benefit obligations that are assumed by EIX.

​

7. Plan Modifications and Adjustments. In order to ensure the incentive features of the Plan, avoid distortion in its operation and compensate for or reflect extraordinary changes which may have occurred during the Performance Year, the Committee may make adjustments to the Company performance goals or results or other Plan terms and

​ | 5 | ​

​

conditions before, during or after the end of the Performance Year to the extent it determines appropriate in its sole discretion. If, pursuant to Section 3 above, the Committee has delegated the selection of performance goals for a Company to the EIX CEO, then this Section 7 authorizes the EIX CEO to make adjustments to that Company’s performance goals or results at any time in his or her sole discretion. Adjustments to performance goals, performance results, and other Plan terms and conditions made pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 7 shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned. The Plan may be modified or terminated by the Committee at any time.

​

8. Plan Administration. Except as otherwise provided in other Sections of this Plan, administration of the Plan is delegated to the senior officer of EIX responsible for Human Resources (and to the EIX director responsible for executive compensation (the “EIX EC Director”) if EIX does not have an officer responsible for Human Resources other than the EIX CEO) and designees acting under his/her (or the EIX EC Director’s) direction. Such officer is authorized (and the EIX EC Director is authorized) to approve ministerial amendments to the Plan, to interpret Plan provisions, and to approve changes as may be required by law or regulation. Any decision or determination under or with respect to the Plan, as well as any interpretation of the Plan, by any Board, Committee or CEO, or by the senior officer of EIX responsible for Human Resources (or the EIX EC Director), in each case within its, his or her authority under or with respect to the Plan, shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned. No Company, Board, Committee or individual shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of the Plan.

​

9. Successors and Assigns. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Company and Participant.

​

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any right to receive payment hereunder is hereby expressly declared to be personal, nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will, intestacy, or as otherwise required by law, and in the event of any attempted assignment, alienation or transfer of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof, the Company shall have no further liability for payments hereunder.

​

10. Beneficiaries. Any award approved following the death of a Participant will be made to the Participant's most recently designated beneficiary or beneficiaries under the 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (or any successor equity incentive plan) of the Company. If no beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, or if no beneficiary survives the Participant, or if a designated beneficiary should die after surviving the Participant but before the award has been paid, any award approved will be paid in a lump-sum payment to the Participant's estate as soon as practicable.

​

11. Capacity. If any person entitled to payments under this Plan is incapacitated and unable to use such payments in his or her own best interest, the Company may direct that payments (or any portion) be made to that person's legal guardian or conservator, or that person's spouse, as an alternative to the payment to the person unable to use the payments. Court-appointed guardianship or conservatorship may be required by the Company before

​ | 6 | ​

​

payment is made. The Company shall have no obligation to supervise the use of such payments.

​

12. No Right of Employment. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon the Participant the right to continue in the employ of the Company as an officer or manager of the Company or in any other capacity.

​

13. Severability and Controlling Law. The various provisions of this Plan are severable in their entirety. Any determination of invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision will have no effect on the continuing force and effect of the remaining provisions. This Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.

​

14. Section 409A. The Company’s intent is that any payments and benefits paid under this Plan be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Code so as to not result in any tax, penalty or interest thereunder. To the maximum extent permitted, this Plan will be interpreted and administered consistent with such intent.

​

15. Recoupment. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, any award to a Covered Participant under this Plan, and any payment that may be made in respect of an award under this Plan to such Covered Participant, shall be subject to recoupment by the Company or forfeiture by such Covered Participant in the event that (a) such Covered Participant’s employment with EIX, SCE, and their respective subsidiaries is terminated by the Employer or if such Covered Participant is placed on unpaid leave by the Employer and (b) the applicable Recoupment Administrator determines that such termination or unpaid leave placement arose from such Covered Participant having engaged in Misconduct. In such circumstances, the applicable Recoupment Administrator shall determine the extent (if any) to which an award to the Covered Participant under this Plan and/or any payment that may be made to the Covered Participant in respect of an award under this Plan shall be forfeited or recouped. To the extent a payment made to the Covered Participant in respect of an award under this Plan is to be recouped, the Covered Participant shall promptly pay to the Company the amount of the required recoupment. In addition, any award under this Plan, and any payment that may be made in respect of an award under this Plan, shall also be subject to any recoupment, “clawback” or similar provisions of applicable law, as well as the EIX and SCE Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy for Accounting Restatements, as in effect from time to time (such policy, the “Mandatory Recoupment Policy”), and any other recoupment or similar policies of the Company that may be in effect from time to time; provided, however, that any portion of an award or payment under this Plan that is recouped pursuant to the Mandatory Recoupment Policy or as required by applicable law shall not be subject to further recoupment or forfeiture under this Section 15 or any other recoupment, “clawback” or similar policies of the Company that may be in effect from time to time.
