 DEFINITIONS OF 2007 OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE METRICS FROM TABLE 6:

1.
Earnings from Operations:
 
 
 
Earnings from operations measures PG&E Corporation’s earnings power from ongoing core operations.  It allows investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of items that management believes do not reflect the normal course of operations (items impacting comparability).  The measurement is not in accordance with GAAP.  For a reconciliation of earnings from operations to consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP, see Tables 2 and 3 above.
 
The 2007 target for earnings from operations is based on the Utility’s 2007 authorized return on equity.  This target is not publicly reported but is consistent with PG&E Corporation’s publicly disclosed guidance range provided for 2007 EPS from operations of $2.70-$2.80.
   
2.
J.D. Power Customer Satisfaction Index:
 
 
 
Pacific Gas and Electric Company measures residential and business customer satisfaction with annual industry-wide surveys conducted by J.D. Power and Associates, as well as with proprietary studies using the same survey methodology in interim periods.  The overall customer satisfaction metric represents the year-to-date average of the residential and business overall customer satisfaction scores from both the J.D. Power-administered and proprietary surveys. The metric is calculated by first combining the available residential and business satisfaction scores (weighted 60% and 40%, respectively) in each period surveyed and then averaging all available composite scores for the year-to-date metric value.
   
3.
Business Transformation Performance:
 
 
The Business Transformation (BT) index is comprised of five measurement points that define success in achieving key BT operational, financial, and post-BT implementation objectives.  These five measurement points are:
 
a.             Overall BT cost performance in comparison to budgeted amounts;
 
b.             Overall BT benefit performance in comparison to planned/budgeted amounts;
 
c.             New business customer connection performance improvement for cycle time and number of customer commitments met;
 
d.             SmartMeterTM project performance for number of meters installed and activated; and
 
e.             BT Foundational release schedule and scope success.
 
The measurement points are individually scored on an index scaled from 0 to 2.  These scores then are averaged with equal weighting to calculate the overall BT performance index score.
   
4.
Employee Engagement Premier Survey:
 
 
The employee engagement premier survey is designed around 15 key drivers of employee engagement.  The average overall employee engagement score provides a comprehensive metric that is derived by averaging the percent favorable responses from all 40 core survey items (all fall into one of the 15 key drivers).
   
5.
Safety Performance:
 
 
The OSHA Recordable Rate measures the number of OSHA Recordable injuries, illnesses, or exposures that (1) satisfy OSHA requirements for recordability, and (2) occur in the current year.  In general, an injury must result in medical treatment beyond first aid or result in work restrictions, death, or loss of consciousness to be OSHA Recordable.  The rate measures how frequently OSHA Recordable cases occur for every 200,000 hours worked, or for approximately every 100 employees.

DISCUSSION RELATED TO TABLES 8, 9, and 10:
 
Management's statements regarding 2007 and 2008 guidance for earnings from operations per common share for PG&E Corporation, estimated rate base for 2007 and 2008, and general sensitivities for 2007 and 2008 earnings, constitute forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations and assumptions which management believes are reasonable, including that the Utility earns at least its authorized rate of return on equity, that the Utility’s ratemaking capital structure is maintained at 52 percent equity, and that the Utility is successful in implementing its initiatives to become more efficient and reduce costs. These statements and assumptions are necessarily subject to various risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include:

·
the Utility’s ability to timely recover costs through rates;
   
·

Since no holders of the Convertible Subordinated Notes exercised the one-time right to require PG&E Corporation to repurchase the Convertible Subordinated Notes on June 30, 2007, PG&E Corporation reclassified the Convertible Subordinated Notes as a noncurrent liability (in Noncurrent Liabilities - Long-Term Debt) in PG&E Corporation’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets effective as of that date.

Docket Numbers of Selected Regulatory Cases
 


Name
 
Brief Description
 
Docket Number
 
Gas Accord IV
CPUC proceeding to set rates, terms and conditions for gas transmission and storage services effective January 1, 2008 through 2010.  Settlement filed on March 15, 2007. CPUC issued a final decision on September 20, 2007 approving the settlement.
 
A.07-03-012
D.07-09-045
Cost of Capital 2008
CPUC proceeding to establish capital structure and increase the currently authorized rate of return on equity and rate base for 2008.  Final decision on rate of return expected by year-end 2007.
 
A.07-05-008
2006 Long Term Procurement Plan (2006 LTPP)
CPUC proceeding to determine need for new generation in the 10-year period 2007 through 2016.  Also determines how costs associated with new generation will be recovered from customers.  In 2006 plan, PG&E seeks approval to procure up to 2,300 MW of new generation.  Final decision expected by year-end 2007.
 
R.06-02-013
Billing and Collection Investigation
On September 20, 2007, the CPUC ordered the Utility to refund, at shareholder expense, approximately $35 million to customers and refund reconnection fees and pay credits to approximately 3,000 customers whose service was shut off for nonpayment of illegal backbills. PG&E Corporation and the Utility do not expect that the payment of such refunds will have a material adverse effect on their financial condition or results of operations.
 
I.03-01-012
D.07-09-041
QF Pricing and Policy
On September 20, 2007, the CPUC issued a decision that modifies the CPUC’s policies and pricing mechanisms applicable to the investor-owned electric utilities’ purchase of energy and capacity from certain QFs. Among other changes, the decision modifies the current formula for determining the utilities’ short-run avoided costs (“SRAC”) (i.e., the cost of energy, which, in the absence of a QF’s generation, the utilities would otherwise generate or purchase from another source).  The modified SRAC formula uses a market index formula based in part on forward market price estimates.  The Utility is evaluating the new SRAC pricing formula to determine its effect on the energy payments that will be made to the non-settling QFs.  On October 25, 2007, the Utility, along with the other investor-owned electric utilities, The Utility Reform Network and the CPUC's Division of Ratepayer Advocates, filed an application for rehearing of the decision.

Transmission Owner 10 Rate Case (TO10)
Primary FERC rate-making proceeding to determine electric transmission revenues and wholesale and retail transmission rates effective October 1, 2007.  Application filed on July 30, 2007.  Order issued September 28, 2007, accepting proposed rate subject to hearing and refund effective March 1, 2008. Final decision expected by second quarter 2008.

Energy Efficiency Order Instituting Rulemaking (OIR) Post-2005
Rulemaking to determine Energy Efficiency policies and programs including shareholder risk/return mechanism.  On September 20, 2007, the CPUC voted to establish incentive ratemaking mechanisms applicable to the California investor-owned utilities’ implementation of their energy efficiency programs funded for the 2006-2008 and 2009-2011 program cycles.  The CPUC will review the adopted mechanisms in 2011 prior to continuation to subsequent program cycles.  On October 31, 2007, the Utility, along with other investor-owned electric utilities, filed a petition for modification of the shareholder incentive mechanism to reduce the possibility of utilities having to pay back interim earnings as long as the final measured energy savings stay above 65% of the CPUC savings goals.
 
R.06-04-010
D.07-10-032
Catastrophic Event Memorandum Account (CEMA)
CPUC proceeding to recover costs of responding to the 2005-2006 winter storms and the July 2006 “heat storm.” A decision denying heat storm costs was issued in July 2007.  On September 21, 2007, PG&E and the CPUC Staff jointly filed a settlement agreement, resolving the winter storm cost issues.
