Expected Ratings (Moody’s/S&P):    Aaa (sf)/AAA (sf)(1)
Closing Date / Settlement Date:    May 10, 2022
Interest Payment Dates:    June 1 and December 1, commencing December 1, 2022
Applicable Time:    3:52 PM (Eastern time) on May 3, 2022
Proceeds:    The total initial price to the public is $3,599,892,126. The total amount of the underwriting discounts and commissions is $14,400,000. The total amount of proceeds to the Issuing Entity before deduction of expenses (estimated to be $7,891,013) is $3,585,492,126.
Initial Fixed Recovery Charge as a Percentage of Consumer’s Bill:   

The initial fixed recovery charge for the recovery bonds offered hereby is expected to represent approximately 1.7% of the total electric bill, as of March 1, 2022, received by a 500 kWh residential consumer of PG&E. However, as described in the prospectus, the impact of the fixed recovery charges is designed to be neutral, on average, to consumers, in part due to the Customer Credit. The Customer Credit, however, will not be used to pay fixed recovery charges.

 

The estimated aggregate initial fixed recovery charge for the recovery bonds offered hereby and the 2021 Wildfire Recovery Bonds issued by PG&E Recovery Funding LLC in November 2021 is expected to represent approximately 2.1% of the total electric bill, as of March 1, 2022, received by a 500 kWh residential consumer of PG&E.

Servicing Compensation:    The issuing entity will pay the servicer on each payment date the servicing fee with respect to the recovery bonds. As long as PG&E or any affiliated entity acts as servicer, this fee will be $1,800,000 (0.05% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the recovery bonds) per annum, plus out-of-pocket expenses

 

(1)

A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

(2)

The Issuing Entity expects to deliver the bonds against payment for the bonds on or about May 10, 2022, which will be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the bonds. Since trades in the secondary market generally settle in two business days, purchasers who wish to trade bonds on the date of pricing or the succeeding two business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the bonds initially will settle in T+5, to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

For the purposes of preparing the above chart, the following assumptions, among others, have been made: (i) in relation to the initial forecast, the forecast error stays constant over the life of the recovery bonds and is equal to an overestimate of electricity consumption of 5% (1.79 standard deviations from mean) or 15% (5.82 standard deviations from mean), (ii) the servicer makes timely and accurate submissions to true-up the fixed recovery charges, (iii) consumer write-off rates are held constant at 0.42% and 0.08% for residential and non-residential, (iv) PG&E remits all fixed recovery charges on average 47 days and 34 days after such charges are billed to residential and non-residential consumers, respectively, (v) operating expenses are equal to projections, (vi) there is no acceleration of the final maturity date of the recovery bonds, (vii) a permanent loss of all consumers has not occurred, and (viii) the issuance date of the recovery bonds is May 10, 2022. There can be no assurance that the weighted average lives of the recovery bonds will be as shown.

 

The section entitled “Use of Proceeds” in the prospectus included as a part of Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on page 137 is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

The net proceeds of this offering are estimated to be approximately $3,577,601,113, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and upfront financing costs. Proceeds will be used to pay expenses of issuance and to purchase the recovery property from PG&E. In accordance with the financing order, PG&E will use the ultimate proceeds it receives from the sale of the recovery property to reimburse itself for previously incurred recovery costs, including the retirement of a portion of the $6.0 billion of related “Temporary Debt” currently outstanding (described below) and a portion of loans outstanding under the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement.

The “Temporary Debt” consists of (1) $2,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of PG&E’s 1.75% First Mortgage Bonds due 2022 (the “1.75% FMBs”), (2) $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of PG&E’s Floating Rate First Mortgage Bonds due 2022 (the “Floating Rate FMBs”), (3) $1,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of PG&E’s 1.367% First Mortgage Bonds due 2023 (the “1.367% FMBs”), (4) $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of PG&E’s 3.25% First Mortgage Bonds due 2024 (the “3.25% FMBs”), and (5) the loans outstanding under the Utility Term Loan Credit Agreement.

PG&E will use the ultimate proceeds it receives from the sale of the recovery property for (1) the proposed redemption of all or a portion of the 1.75% FMBs and (2) the proposed redemption of all or a portion of the Floating Rate FMBs. PG&E will use any remaining proceeds for the proposed repayment of a portion of loans outstanding under the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement. This prospectus does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to 1.75% FMBs or the Floating Rate FMBs.    

At April 29, 2022, the 1.75% FMBs had an interest rate of 1.75% per annum and the Floating Rate FMBs had an interest rate of 2.36% per annum. At April 29, 2022, borrowings under the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement totaled $2,105,000,000. Such borrowings bear interest based at a floating rate (2.56% per annum at April 29, 2022). The Utility Revolving Credit Agreement matures on June 22, 2026, subject to two one-year extensions at PG&E’s option. The proceeds of the portion of the loans under the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement that may be repaid with the ultimate proceeds of this offering were used to fund cash payments of $1.35 billion to the Fire Victim Trust.

Certain of the underwriters and/or their affiliates are agents or lenders under the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement that PG&E intends to repay from the proceeds it will receive from the sale of the recovery property. In such event, it is possible that one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates could receive more than 5% of the net proceeds

of this offering, and in that case such underwriter could be deemed to have a conflict of interest under FINRA Rule 5121. In the event of any such conflict of interest, such underwriter would be required to conduct the distribution of bonds in accordance with FINRA Rule 5121. If the distribution is conducted in accordance with FINRA Rule 5121, such underwriter would not be permitted to sell to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without first receiving specific written approval from the account holder. See “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)”.

The section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in the prospectus included as a part of Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement is updated to “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” and the following paragraph is added below the last paragraph of that section on page 139:
