PG&E Provides Update on Board Refreshment Process

Expects Majority of Board Will Be New Independent Directors by 2019 Annual Meeting

San Francisco, Calif.—The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG) (the “Company”) today provided an update on its previously announced Board refreshment process. The Board currently expects that no more than five of the Company’s current directors will stand for election at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Board intends that a majority of the directors of the Company will be new independent directors by the time of the 2019 Annual Meeting, subject to proper consideration of new candidates. The Board is expected to include 11 independent directors at that time. Subject to applicable regulatory approvals, it is expected that the Board of Directors of the Company’s utility subsidiary, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the “Utility”), will track the new composition of PG&E’s Board.

The Board is working with a leading search firm and has identified strong candidates who would add fresh perspectives and augment the Board’s expertise in safety, operations and other critical areas. As the Board continues to work through this process of identifying and evaluating candidates, it is committed to engaging with shareholders and other stakeholders to solicit their views on new independent directors.

The Board stated: “We fully understand that PG&E must re-earn trust and credibility with its customers, regulators, the communities it serves and all of its stakeholders, and we are continuing to make changes that reinforce PG&E’s commitment to safety and improvement. We recognize the importance of adding fresh perspectives to the Board to help address the serious challenges the business faces now and in the future. That is why we are committed to significant Board refreshment with the current expectation that no more than five current directors will stand for election and the intention that a majority of the Board will be new independent directors. We have been working diligently to identify respected professionals with relevant experience in safety, operations and other critical areas, and we have identified a number of strong candidates. Throughout this process of identifying and evaluating candidates, we intend to remain engaged with our shareholders and other stakeholders on potential new director nominees to ensure we are aligned and are evaluating the most qualified candidates who can help PG&E deliver safe and reliable service to our customers in the years ahead.”
