DEFINITIONS OF 2011 OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE METRICS FROM TABLE 4:

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 earnings in accordance with GAAP, see Tables 1 and 2 above.
   
2.
Operational Excellence Index:
 
 
The Operational Excellence Index is a composite of categories outlined below.  Overall, these metrics provide a balanced view on electric reliability, gas reliability, and safety.  A higher index score indicates better performance in operational excellence.
1. System Average Interruption Frequency Index (“SAIFI”) – 20% weight
2. Customer Average Interruption Duration Index (“CAIDI”) – 20% weight
3. Gas Emergency Response – 10% weight
4. Gas Transmission and Distribution Leak Survey Quality – 10% weight
5. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (“OSHA”) Recordable Rate – 30% weight
6. Motor Vehicle Incident (“MVI”) Rate – 10% weight
 
SAIFI is a measure of the frequency that customers experience electrical outages.  CAIDI is a measure of the average duration of electrical outages.  Gas Emergency Response indicates how often calls that require immediate response are responded to within one hour.  The Gas Transmission and Distribution Leak Survey Quality metric is a composite that measures both the quality of gas leak survey assessments as well as the number of those assessments.  The OSHA Recordable Rate measures the number of OSHA Recordable injuries, illnesses, or exposures.  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 per year.  The MVI Rate measures the number of chargeable motor vehicle incidents per 1 million miles driven.  A chargeable incident is one where the Company driver could have prevented an incident, but failed to take reasonable steps to do so.
   
3.
Customer Satisfaction & Brand Health Index:
 
 
The Customer Satisfaction & Brand Health Index is a combination of a Customer Satisfaction Score, which has a 75 percent weighting and a Brand Favorability Score, which has a 25 percent weighting in the composite.  The Customer Satisfaction Score is a measure of overall satisfaction with the Utility’s operational performance in delivering services such as reliability, pricing of services, and customer service experience.  The Brand Favorability Score is a measure of the overall favorability towards the Utility’s brand, and measures the emotional connection that customers have with the brand and is based on assessing perceptions regarding the Utility’s images, such as trust, heritage, and social responsibility.  The Customer Satisfaction & Brand Health Index measures residential, small business, and medium business customer perceptions with weightings of 60 percent for residential customers and 40 percent for business customers.  A higher index score indicates better performance in customer satisfaction and brand health. The year end score is the average result of four quarterly surveys conducted by an independent third party.
   
4.
Employee Engagement Index:
 
 
The Employee Engagement Score is derived by averaging the percent favorable responses to 8 survey items included in PG&E’s annual employee Premier Survey conducted by an independent third party.  A higher score indicates better performance in employee engagement.
   
5.
Environmental Leadership Index:
 
 
The Environmental Leadership Index is a combination of environmental compliance, which has a 50 percent weighting and operational footprint, which has a 50 percent weighting in the composite.  The environmental compliance is determined by the number of Notice of Violations (“NOVs”) that PG&E receives resulting from agency inspections.  The operational footprint is measured by reducing energy and water use, and increasing the diversion of solid waste at company facilities.  A higher index score indicates better performance in environmental leadership.

Table 6: Cautionary Language Regarding Forward-Looking Statements on Tables 7 and 8
 

Management's statements regarding guidance for earnings from operations per common share for PG&E Corporation and general earnings sensitivities constitute forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations and various assumptions and estimates that management believes are reasonable. These statements, assumptions, and estimates reflect management’s judgment and opinions and are necessarily subject to various risks and uncertainties, the realization or resolution of which may be outside of management’s control. Actual results may differ materially. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include:

·
 
the outcomes of pending and future investigations and regulatory proceedings related to the San Bruno accident, and the safety of the Utility’s natural gas pipelines in its service territory; the ultimate amount of costs the Utility incurs for natural gas matters that are not recovered through rates; the ultimate amount of third-party claims associated with the San Bruno accident that are not recovered through insurance; and the amount of any civil or criminal penalties, or punitive damages the Utility may incur related to these matters, including the amount of penalties that the CPSD may impose on the Utility for violations of natural gas safety regulations;
   
·
the outcome of future investigations or proceedings that may be commenced by the CPUC or other regulatory authorities relating to the Utility’s compliance with law, rules, regulations, or orders applicable to the operation, inspection, and maintenance of its electric and gas facilities (in addition to investigations or proceedings related to the San Bruno accident and natural gas matters);
 
 
 · whether PG&E Corporation and the Utility are able to repair the reputational harm that they have suffered which, in part, will depend on their ability to adequately and timely respond to the findings and recommendations made by the NTSB and CPUC’s independent review panel and cure the deficiencies that have been identified in the Utility’s operating practices and procedures and corporate culture; developments that may occur in the various investigations of the San Bruno accident and natural gas matters; the decisions, findings, or orders issued in connection with these investigations, including the amount of civil or criminal penalties that may be imposed on the Utility; developments that may occur in the civil litigation related to the San Bruno accident; and the extent of service disruptions that may occur due to changes in pipeline pressure as the Utility continues to inspect and test pipelines;
   
·
the adequacy and price of electricity and natural gas supplies, the extent to which the Utility can manage and respond to the volatility of electricity and natural gas prices, the ability of the Utility and its counterparties to post or return collateral in connection with price risk management activities; and the availability and price of nuclear fuel used in the two nuclear generation units at Diablo Canyon;
   
·
explosions, fires, accidents, mechanical breakdowns, equipment failures, human errors, labor disruptions, and similar events, as well as acts of terrorism, war, or vandalism, including cyber-attacks, that can cause unplanned outages, reduce generating output, disrupt the Utility’s service to customers, or damage or disrupt the facilities, operations, or information technology and systems owned by the Utility, its customers, or third parties on which the Utility relies; and subject the Utility to third-party liability for property damage or personal injury, or result in the imposition of civil, criminal, or regulatory penalties on the Utility;

·
the ability of PG&E Corporation, the Utility, and counterparties to access capital markets and other sources of credit in a timely manner on acceptable terms;
   
·
the impact of environmental remediation laws, regulations, and orders; the extent to which the Utility is able to recover compliance and remediation costs from third parties or through rates or insurance; and the ultimate amount of costs the Utility incurs in connection with its natural gas compressor station located near Hinkley, California which are not recoverable through rates or insurance;
   
·
the loss of customers due to various forms of bypass and competition, including municipalization of the Utility’s electric distribution facilities, increasing levels of “direct access” by which consumers procure electricity from alternative energy providers, and implementation of “community choice aggregation,” which permits certain types of governmental bodies to purchase and sell electricity for their local residents and businesses;
   
·
the outcome of federal or state tax audits and the impact of changes in federal or state tax laws, policies, or regulations, such as The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 (the “Tax Relief Act”); and
   
·
other factors and risks discussed in PG&E Corporation and the Utility’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(1) Items impacting comparability reconcile earnings from operations with Consolidated Income Available for Common Shareholders in accordance with GAAP.
 
(2)  The range includes pipeline-related costs associated with the increased scope of work that the Utility expects to undertake on its natural gas pipeline system, as well as any additional provision for third-party claims.

(a) The pipeline-related cost range of $450 million to $550 million includes costs associated with regulatory and legal proceedings and other gas pipeline costs that may not be recoverable through rates. Although the Utility has requested the CPUC to authorize the Utility to recover certain costs it incurs in 2012 and future years under its proposed pipeline safety enhancement plan, it is uncertain what portion of these costs will be recoverable and when such costs will be recovered.
 
(b) Although the Utility believes the ultimate amount of penalties could be materially higher than amounts accrued as of December 31, 2011, losses for penalties are recognized only when deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated under applicable accounting standards.
 
(c) The range for third-party claims in 2012 is in addition to the cumulative provision of $375 million recorded as of December 31, 2011.
 
(d) Although the Utility considers it likely that a significant portion of the costs it incurs for third-party claims will be covered through its insurance, insurance recoveries are recognized only when deemed probable under applicable accounting standards.
 
(e) As in 2011, guidance does not include any potential future insurance recoveries or penalties (other than those already accrued) or any potential punitive damages.
 
(3) The estimate depends primarily on the outcome of a final groundwater remediation plan and other related activities associated with the Hinkley natural gas compressor site.
