Section 1-- Registrant's Business and Operations Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Indenture and Supplemental Indentures On May 7, 2007, Edison International's indirect subsidiary, Edison Mission Energy ("EME"), completed the private offering of $1,200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.00% Senior Notes due 2017 (the "2017 Senior Notes"), $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.20% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "2019 Senior Notes") and $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes", and collectively with the 2017 Senior Notes and the 2019 Senior Notes, the "Senior Notes") pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement, dated as of May 1, 2007, between EME and several initial purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto (the "Purchasers"). The Senior Notes are governed by the terms of the Indenture, dated as of May 7, 2007, between EME and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 7, 2007, setting forth the terms of the 2017 Senior Notes (the "First Supplemental Indenture"), by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 7, 2007, setting forth the terms of the 2019 Senior Notes (the "Second Supplemental Indenture") and by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 7, 2007, setting forth the terms of the 2027 Senior Notes (the "Third Supplemental Indenture," and together with the First Supplemental Indenture and Second Supplemental Indenture, the "Supplemental Indentures"). EME will pay interest on the Senior Notes on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2007. The Senior Notes are redeemable by EME at any time at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, on, the Senior Notes plus a "make-whole" premium. The 2017 Senior Notes mature on May 15, 2017, the 2019 Senior Notes mature on May 15, 2019 and the 2027 Senior Notes mature on May 15, 2027. The Senior Notes are EME's senior unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment to all of EME's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, and will rank senior to EME's future subordinated indebtedness. EME's secured debt and its other secured obligations are effectively senior to the Senior Notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt or other obligations. None of EME's subsidiaries have guaranteed the Senior Notes and, as a result, all the existing and future liabilities of EME's subsidiaries are effectively senior to the Senior Notes. The Indenture, as supplemented by each Supplemental Indenture, contains affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default (other than events of default due to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization), the trustee under the Indenture or the holders of not less than 25% of the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes may declare all outstanding Senior Notes to be due and payable immediately. Page 2 The Senior Notes are being offered by the Purchasers to qualified institutional buyers only in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, and outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Senior Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the laws of any other jurisdiction. Unless and until they are so registered, the Notes may be offered and sold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the applicable securities laws of other jurisdictions. In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, EME and the Purchasers entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of May 7, 2007 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which EME has agreed to offer to exchange the Senior Notes for new issues of substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act. In the event that EME breaches its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, EME will be obligated to pay additional interest to the holders of the Senior Notes. Copies of the Indenture and each Supplemental Indenture, attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1, 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3, respectively, are incorporated herein by reference. The description of the material terms of such agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits.
