  PG&E Corporation adopted the consensus reached by Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, in EITF issue No. 03-06, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128,” or EITF 03-06, as ratified by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on March 31, 2004.

PG&E Corporation currently has outstanding $280 million principal amount of convertible subordinated 9.50% notes due 2010, or Convertible Notes, that are entitled to receive (non-cumulative) dividend payments without exercising the conversion option. These Convertible Notes, which were issued in June 2002, meet the criteria of a participating security in the calculation of earnings per share using the “two-class” method.

Accordingly, the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2003 reflect the allocation of earnings between PG&E Corporation common stock and the participating security.
