Item 8.01 Other Events
On November 8, 2010, Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”), Edison International’s subsidiary, entered into an agreement to sell its ownership interest in Units 4 and 5 of the Four Corners coal-fired electric generating facility located in Farmington, New Mexico to the operator of the facility, Arizona Public Service Company. The sale price is $294 million, subject to certain adjustments, and the associated after-tax gain will be for the benefit of SCE’s ratepayers and, therefore, will not affect SCE’s earnings. In addition, completion of the sale will not have a material impact on SCE’s rate base. The closing of the sale is contingent upon the receipt of regulatory approvals, execution of amendments extending the existing facility lease, execution of a new coal supply contract, and other specified closing conditions and is currently estimated to occur in the second half of 2012.
