+## Introduction
+
+This document describes the process of the ePBS upgrade.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Warning: this configuration is not definitive.
+
+| Name                | Value |
+|---------------------| - |
+| `EPBS_FORK_VERSION` | `Version('0x05000000')` |
+| `EPBS_FORK_EPOCH`   | `Epoch(18446744073709551615)` **TBD** |
+
+## Helper functions
+
+### Misc
+
+#### Modified `compute_fork_version`
+
+```python
+def compute_fork_version(epoch: Epoch) -> Version:
+    """
+    Return the fork version at the given ``epoch``.
+    """
+    if epoch >= EPBS_FORK_EPOCH:
+        return EPBS_FORK_VERSION
+    if epoch >= DENEB_FORK_EPOCH:
+        return DENEB_FORK_VERSION
+    if epoch >= CAPELLA_FORK_EPOCH:
+        return CAPELLA_FORK_VERSION
+    if epoch >= BELLATRIX_FORK_EPOCH:
+        return BELLATRIX_FORK_VERSION
+    if epoch >= ALTAIR_FORK_EPOCH:
+        return ALTAIR_FORK_VERSION
+    return GENESIS_FORK_VERSION
+```
+
+## Fork to EPBS
+
+### Fork trigger
+
+TBD. This fork is defined for testing purposes, the EIP may be combined with other 
+consensus-layer upgrade.
+For now, we assume the condition will be triggered at epoch `EPBS_FORK_EPOCH`.
+
+### Upgrading the state
+
+If `state.slot % SLOTS_PER_EPOCH == 0` and `compute_epoch_at_slot(state.slot) == EPBS_FORK_EPOCH`,
+an irregular state change is made to upgrade to ePBS.
+
+```python
+def upgrade_to_epbs(pre: deneb.BeaconState) -> BeaconState:
+    epoch = deneb.get_current_epoch(pre)
