Note:

For the purpose of computing Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s ratios of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends, “earnings” represent net income adjusted for the income or loss from equity investees of less than 100% owned affiliates, equity in undistributed income or losses of less than 50% owned affiliates, income taxes and fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest).  “Fixed charges” include interest on long-term debt and short-term borrowings (including a representative portion of rental expense), amortization of bond premium, discount and expense, interest on capital leases, AFUDC debt, and earnings required to cover the preferred stock dividend requirements.  Fixed charges exclude interest on tax liabilities.
