 Executive Compensation: A Closer Look Diverse, experienced, and talented industry executives, including our CEO, were successfully hired and onboarded in 2021. • We wanted to attract and retain proven senior executives at a time of significant change at PG&E and intense competition for top talent. • One-time equity awards were granted to replace certain awards our new leaders forfeited by joining PG&E. All one-time awards are subject to forfeiture or claw back. • We conducted a comprehensive review of our compensation programs to ensure increased alignment with market and peer practices. Among other changes, we eliminated cash perquisite allowances and increased share ownership requirements. Our executive compensation program is aligned with stakeholders’ interests • Significant portion of executive compensation continues to be performance based, with increased focus on safety. • Short Term Incentive payouts for 2021 were reduced by an average of 40 percent for certain senior executives in consideration of performance on key safety and operational metrics. • For 2022, long-term incentive awards granted for NEOs and other senior executives are 100% performance-based. 3
