         ROSEMEAD, CA, June 28, 2001 - Edison International (NYSE: EIX) and Edison Mission Energy today announced
that Mission Energy Holding Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Edison International, has priced the issuance
of $800 million of its 13.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2008 and has received a commitment for a $385 million
senior secured term loan.  Mission Energy Holding is a new holding company for Edison Mission Energy.

         The closing of the offering of the notes and the closing and funding of the term loan are concurrently

each other.

         The notes will:

o        mature on July 15, 2008; and
o        be secured by the common stock of Edison Mission Energy on a pro rata basis with the term loan.
