EME Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

In December 2012, EME and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. The Amended Plan of Reorganization, including the EME Settlement Agreement, was completed on April 1, 2014 with the sale of substantially all of EME's assets to NRG Energy, Inc. and the transactions called for in the EME Settlement Agreement, including an initial cash payment to the Reorganization Trust of $225 million in April 2014. For further discussion of the EME Settlement Agreement, see the 2014 Form 10-K, "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 15."

In August 2014, Edison International entered into an amendment of the EME Settlement Agreement that finalized the remaining matters related to the EME Settlement including setting the amount of the two installment payments at $204 million due on September 30, 2015 and $214 million due on September 30, 2016.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $184 million and $162 million for the three and the six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.
