Under the Bankruptcy Code, third-party actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness owed by PG&E Corporation or the Utility, as well as most litigation pending against PG&E Corporation and the Utility (including the third-party matters described in Note 10 below) as of the Petition Date, are subject to an automatic stay. Absent an order of the Bankruptcy Court providing otherwise, substantially all pre-petition liabilities will be resolved under a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization to be voted upon by impaired creditors and interest holders, and approved by the Bankruptcy Court. However, under the Bankruptcy Code, regulatory or criminal proceedings generally are not subject to an automatic stay, and these proceedings have been continuing during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases.

Under the priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code, certain post-petition and secured or “priority” pre-petition liabilities need to be satisfied before general unsecured creditors and holders of PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s equity are entitled to receive any distribution. No assurance can be given as to what values, if any, will be ascribed in the Chapter 11 Cases to the claims and interests of each of these constituencies. Additionally, no assurance can be given as to whether, when or in what form unsecured creditors and holders of PG&E Corporation’s or the Utility’s equity may receive a distribution on such claims or interests.

Under the Bankruptcy Code, PG&E Corporation and the Utility may assume, assume and assign, or reject certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, including, without limitation, leases of real property and equipment, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and to certain other conditions. Any description of an executory contract or unexpired lease in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or in the 2019 Form 10-K, including, where applicable, the express termination rights thereunder or a quantification of their obligations, must be read in conjunction with, and is qualified by, any overriding rejection rights PG&E Corporation and the Utility have under the Bankruptcy Code.

On January 31, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court approved, on an interim basis, certain motions (the “First Day Motions”) authorizing, but not directing, PG&E Corporation and the Utility to, among other things, (a) secure $5.5 billion of debtor-in-possession financing; (b) continue to use PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s cash management system; and (c) pay certain pre-petition claims relating to (i) certain safety, reliability, outage, and nuclear facility suppliers; (ii) shippers, warehousemen, and other lien claimants; (iii) taxes; (iv) employee wages, salaries, and other compensation and benefits; and (v) customer programs, including public purpose programs. The First Day Motions were subsequently approved by the Bankruptcy Court on a final basis at hearings on February 27, 2019, March 12, 2019, March 13, 2019, and March 27, 2019.

On July 1, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving a deadline of October 21, 2019, at 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) (the “Bar Date”) for filing claims against PG&E Corporation and the Utility relating to the period prior to the Petition Date. The Bar Date is subject to certain exceptions, including for claims arising under section 503(b)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, the bar date for which occurred on April 22, 2019. The Bankruptcy Court also approved PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s plan to provide notice of the Bar Date to parties in interest, including potential wildfire-related claimants and other potential creditors. On November 11, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving a stipulation between PG&E Corporation and the Utility and the TCC to extend the Bar Date for unfiled, non-governmental fire claimants to December 31, 2019, at 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time). By order dated February 27, 2020, the Court extended the Bar Date through and including April 16, 2020, for certain persons or entities that purchased or acquired the PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s publicly traded debt or equity securities and who may have claims under the securities laws against the Debtors for rescission or damages.

On September 9, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed with the Bankruptcy Court their Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization for the resolution of the outstanding pre-petition claims against and interests in PG&E Corporation and the Utility, which was thereafter amended on September 23, 2019 and November 4, 2019. On December 12, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility, certain funds and accounts managed or advised by Abrams Capital Management, LP (“Abrams”), and certain funds and accounts managed or advised by Knighthead Capital Management, LLC (“Knighthead” and, together with Abrams, the “Shareholder Proponents”) filed the Debtors’ and Shareholder Proponents’ Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization dated December 19, 2019 with the Bankruptcy Court (as thereafter amended on January 31, 2020, March 9, 2020 and March 16, 2020, and as may be further amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Plan”).

On September 22, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement with certain holders of insurance subrogation claims (collectively, the “Consenting Subrogation Creditors”). On September 22, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility and the Consenting Subrogation Creditors entered into an amended and restated Restructuring Support Agreement, which was subsequently amended on November 1, 2019, (as amended, the “Subrogation RSA”). The Subrogation RSA provides for an aggregate amount of $11.0 billion (the “Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount”) to be paid by PG&E Corporation and the Utility pursuant to the Plan in order to settle all insurance subrogation claims (the “Subrogation Claims”) relating to the 2017 Northern California wildfires and the 2018 Camp fire (the “Subrogation Claims Settlement”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Subrogation RSA. Under the Subrogation RSA, PG&E Corporation and the Utility also have agreed to reimburse the holders of Subrogation Claims for professional fees of up to $55 million, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Subrogation RSA. See “Restructuring Support Agreement with Holders of Subrogation Claims” in Note 10 for further information on the Subrogation RSA. On September 24, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking authority to enter into, and perform under, the Subrogation RSA and approval of the Subrogation Claims Settlement. Hearings on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s motion to approve the Subrogation RSA were held on October 23, 2019, December 4, 2019 and December 17, 2019. On December 19, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Subrogation RSA. See “Restructuring Support Agreement with Holders of Subrogation Claims” in Note 10 for further information on the Subrogation RSA.

On December 6, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement, which was subsequently amended on December 16, 2019 (as amended, the “TCC RSA”), with the TCC, the attorneys and other advisors and agents for holders of Fire Victim Claims (as defined below) that are signatories to the TCC RSA (each a “Consenting Fire Claimant Professional”), and the Shareholder Proponents. The TCC RSA provides for, among other things, an aggregate of $13.5 billion in value to be provided by PG&E Corporation and the Utility pursuant to the Plan in order to settle and discharge all claims against PG&E Corporation and the Utility relating to the 2015 Butte fire, the 2017 Northern California wildfires and the 2018 Camp fire (other than the Subrogation Claims and the Public Entity Wildfire Claims) (the “Fire Victim Claims”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in the TCC RSA and the Plan. On December 9, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking authority to enter into, and perform under, the TCC RSA. A hearing on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s motion to approve the TCC RSA was held on December 17, 2019. On December 19, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the TCC RSA. See “Restructuring Support Agreement with the TCC” in Note 10 for further information on the TCC RSA.

•refinancing of Utility Short-Term Notes, Utility Long-Term Notes and Utility Funded Debt (except Pollution Control Bonds Series 2008F and 2010E, which will be repaid in cash) with the issuance of new notes, reinstatement of Utility Reinstated Notes and reimbursement of the holders of Utility Long-Term Senior Notes for debt placement fees and the members of the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee for professional fees of up to $99 million (as further described under the heading “Restructuring Support Agreement with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee”);

•the issuance of $23.775 billion of new Utility debt, consisting of (i) $6.2 billion of New Utility Long-Term Notes to be issued to holders of certain pre-petition senior notes of the Utility pursuant to the Plan, (ii) $1.75 billion of New Utility Short-Term Notes to be issued to holders of certain pre-petition senior notes of the Utility pursuant to the Plan, (iii) $3.9 billion of Utility Funded Debt Exchange Notes to be issued to holders of certain pre-petition indebtedness of the Utility pursuant to the Plan and (iv) $11.925 billion of new debt securities or bank debt of the Utility to be issued to third parties for cash on or prior to the Effective Date (of which $6.0 billion is expected to be repaid with the proceeds of a new securitization transaction after the Effective Date);

The Plan has not been approved and is subject to regulatory review by the CPUC and FERC, as and to the extent required by law, including as potentially causing a change in control under Section 203 of the Federal Power Act. The Plan may be further amended, modified, or supplemented as necessary or desired by PG&E Corporation and the Utility or as required by the Bankruptcy Court or the CPUC. PG&E Corporation and the Utility expect that the CPUC and FERC will issue decisions in advance of the June 30, 2020 deadline for Plan confirmation.

On March 20, 2020, the Debtors filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court for entry of an order approving a case resolution contingency process to address the circumstance in which the Plan is not confirmed or fails to become effective in accordance with certain required dates (the “Case Resolution Contingency Process”). As further described in the motion, the Case Resolution Contingency Process contemplates a process for the sale of PG&E Corporation or the Utility in the event that the Plan is not confirmed or fails to become effective in accordance with certain required dates. In addition, the motion sets forth certain other commitments by the Debtors in connection with the confirmation process and implementation of the Plan, including among other things, limitations on the ability of PG&E Corporation to pay dividends; commitments by the Utility with respect to cost recovery of amounts paid in respect of “Fire Claims” under the Plan; the terms of a purchase option in favor of the state of California (which would be exercisable only in limited circumstances); and commitments with respect to the Utility’s utilization of the cash benefits associated with wildfire-related net operating losses. Also on March 20, 2020, the California Governor filed a responsive pleading in the Bankruptcy Court stating that, assuming the Bankruptcy Court grants the Motion and the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) approves the Plan with the governance, financial and operational provisions submitted to the CPUC by the Utility or otherwise agreed by the Utility, with any modifications the CPUC believes appropriate or necessary, the Plan “will, in the Governor’s judgment, be compliant with AB 1054.” The Governor’s pleading also states that “a rate neutral securitization pursuant to Senate Bill 901...would, in [the Governor’s] judgment, be in the public interest...” Following a hearing held on April 7, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court indicated that it would approve the Debtors’ motion and the Case Resolution Contingency Process, subject to certain reservations of rights, and directed the Debtors to submit an order to that effect. The Bankruptcy Court entered the order approving the motion on April 9, 2020.

On February 7, 2020, pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed a proposed disclosure statement (as updated, the “Proposed Disclosure Statement”), with all schedules and exhibits thereto, for the Plan. On February 18, 2020, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed certain projections with the Bankruptcy Court as an exhibit to the Proposed Disclosure Statement, and on March 9, 2020, PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed an updated Proposed Disclosure Statement with revised financial projections as an exhibit with the Bankruptcy Court. PG&E Corporation and the Utility filed on February 18, 2020, a motion requesting that the Court (i) establish Plan solicitation and voting procedures, and (ii) approve the forms of Ballots, Solicitation Packages, and related notices to be sent to the various creditors and interest holders in connection with confirmation of the Plan (the “Solicitation Procedures Motion”). By order dated March 17, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Proposed Disclosure Statement and the Solicitation Procedures Motion. Pursuant to the Solicitation Procedures Motion, PG&E Corporation and the Utility mailed the Ballots, Solicitation Packages and related notices by March 31, 2020, and votes are due by May 15, 2020. A hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan is scheduled for May 27, 2020.

On January 22, 2020, PG&E Corporation and the Utility entered into the Noteholder RSA with those holders of senior unsecured debt of the Utility that are identified as “Consenting Noteholders” below and the Shareholder Proponents. The Noteholder RSA provides for, among other things, (i) the refinancing of the Utility’s senior unsecured debt in satisfaction of all claims arising out of the Utility Short-Term Senior Notes, the Utility Long-Term Senior Notes and the Utility Funded Debt, each as defined below, and (ii) the reinstatement of the Utility Reinstated Senior Notes, as defined below (together with the Utility Short-Term Senior Notes and Utility Long-Term Senior Notes, the “Utility Senior Note Claims”), in each case pursuant to the Plan and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Noteholder RSA. Under the Noteholder RSA, PG&E Corporation and the Utility have also agreed to reimburse the holders of Utility Long-Term Senior Notes for debt placement fees and the members of the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee for professional fees of up to $99 million upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Noteholder RSA. The following holders of Utility Senior Notes Claims are party to the Noteholder RSA as “Consenting Noteholders” as of the date hereof: Apollo Global Management LLC, Elliott Management Corporation, Oaktree Capital Management L.P., Farallon Capital Management LLC, Capital Group, Värde Partners Inc., Davidson Kempner Capital Management LP, Canyon Capital Advisors LLC, Third Point LLC, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, Citadel Advisors LLC and Sculptor Capital Investments, LLC. Any holder of Utility Senior Note Claims or Utility Funded Debt can become a party to the Noteholder RSA by executing the joinder attached to the Noteholder RSA.

•Utility Short-Term Senior Notes: Currently outstanding Utility notes maturing through 2022 in an aggregate principal amount of $1.75 billion (the “Utility Short-Term Senior Notes”) will receive new Utility secured notes in the following aggregate principal amounts: $875 million of new Utility 3.45% secured notes due 2025 and $875 million of new Utility 3.75% secured notes due 2028 (together, the “New Utility Short-Term Notes”). The New Utility Short-Term Notes will otherwise have substantially similar terms and conditions as the Utility’s 6.05% Senior Notes due March 1, 2034. Additionally, holders of claims arising out of the Utility Short-Term Senior Notes will receive cash in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the amount of pre-petition interest outstanding on the Utility Short-Term Senior Notes calculated using the applicable non-default contract rate and (2) interest calculated using the Federal Judgment Rate on the sum of (A) the applicable principal amount of the Utility Short-Term Senior Notes and (B) the amount in clause (1) for the period commencing on the day after the Petition Date and ending on the Effective Date.

•Utility Long-Term Senior Notes: All long-term Utility notes bearing an interest rate greater than 5.00%, of which there is an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $6.2 billion (the “Utility Long-Term Senior Notes”), will receive new Utility secured notes in the following aggregate principal amounts: $3.1 billion of new Utility 4.55% secured notes due 2030 and $3.1 billion of new Utility 4.95% secured notes due 2050 (together, the “New Utility Long-Term Notes”). The New Utility Long-Term Notes will otherwise have substantially similar terms and conditions as the Utility’s 3.95% Senior Notes due December 1, 2047. Additionally, holders of claims arising out of the Utility Long-Term Senior Notes will receive cash in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the amount of pre-petition interest outstanding on the Utility Long-Term Senior Notes calculated using the applicable non-default contract rate and (2) interest calculated using the federal judgment rate on the sum of (A) the applicable principal amount of the Utility Long-Term Senior Notes and (B) the amount in clause (1) for the period commencing on the Petition Date and ending on the Effective Date.

•Utility Funded Debt: Holders of the Utility’s pre-petition credit facilities and Pollution Control bonds (collectively, the “Utility Funded Debt”) will receive new Utility secured notes in the following aggregate principal amounts: $1.949 billion in new Utility 3.15% senior secured notes due 2025, and $1.949 billion in new Utility 4.50% senior secured notes due 2040 (the “New Utility Funded Debt Exchange Notes”). The New Utility Funded Debt Exchange Notes will otherwise have substantially similar terms and conditions as the Utility’s 6.05% Senior Notes due March 1, 2034. Additionally, holders of claims arising out of the Utility Funded Debt will receive cash in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the amount of pre-petition interest outstanding on the Utility Funded Debt calculated using the applicable non-default contract rate, (2) fees and charges and other obligations owed as of the Petition Date in respect of the Utility Funded Debt, (3) reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses of counsel, subject a maximum of $6 million and (4) interest calculated using the federal judgment rate on the sum of (A) the applicable principal amount of the Utility Funded Debt and (B) the amount in clauses (1) and (2) for the period commencing on the Petition Date and ending on the Effective Date.

As of March 6, 2020, PG&E Corporation has entered into Chapter 11 Plan Backstop Commitment Letters (collectively, the “Backstop Commitment Letters”) with investors (collectively, the “Backstop Parties”), pursuant to which the Backstop Parties severally agreed to fund up to $12.0 billion of proceeds to finance the Plan through the purchase of PG&E Corporation common stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such Backstop Commitment Letters (the “Backstop Commitments”). The price at which any such new shares would be issued to the Backstop Parties would be equal to (a) 10 (subject to adjustment as provided in the Backstop Commitment Letters), times (b) PG&E Corporation’s consolidated Normalized Estimated Net Income (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Letters) for the estimated year 2021, divided by (c) the number of fully diluted shares of PG&E Corporation that will be outstanding on the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”) (assuming that all equity is raised by funding the Backstop Commitments).

The Backstop Commitment Letters provide that, under certain circumstances, PG&E Corporation and the Utility will be permitted to issue new shares of common stock of PG&E Corporation for up to $12.0 billion of proceeds to finance the transactions contemplated by the Plan through one or more equity offerings that, under certain circumstances, must include a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”). The structure, terms and conditions of any such equity offering (including a Rights Offering) are expected to be determined by PG&E Corporation and the Utility at a later time in the Chapter 11 process, subject to the terms and conditions of the Backstop Commitment Letters. This may include terms and conditions that are designed to preserve the ability of PG&E Corporation or the Utility to utilize their net operating loss carryforwards. There can be no assurance that any such equity offering would be successful. In the event that such equity offerings (together with additional permitted capital sources) do not raise at least $12.0 billion of proceeds in the aggregate or if PG&E Corporation and the Utility do not otherwise consummate such offerings, then PG&E Corporation and the Utility may draw on the Backstop Commitments for equity funding to finance the transactions contemplated by the Plan, subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Backstop Parties of the conditions set forth therein. Although the Backstop Commitment Letters permit PG&E Corporation to draw up to $12.0 billion in equity under specified circumstances, the Plan contemplates an equity raise of only $9.0 billion, the maximum available under these circumstances, which equity will be raised in accordance with the terms of the Backstop Commitment Letters.

Under the Backstop Commitment Letters, PG&E Corporation agrees that if the Backstop Commitments are drawn, and PG&E Corporation does not expect to conduct a third-party transaction based upon or related to the utilization or monetization of any net operating losses or tax deductions resulting from the payment of pre-petition wildfire-related claims (a “Tax Benefits Monetization Transaction”) on the Effective Date, no later than five business days prior to the Effective Date, PG&E Corporation and the Utility must form a trust which would provide for periodic distributions of cash to the Backstop Parties in amounts equal to (i) all tax benefits arising from the payment of wildfire-related claims in excess of (ii) the first $1.35 billion of tax benefits, starting with fiscal year 2020. PG&E Corporation intends to explore a Tax Benefits Monetization Transaction. If PG&E Corporation and the Utility implement the capital structure outlined in the Debtors’ Plan of Reorganization OII Prepared Testimony filed with the California Public Utilities Commission on January 31, 2020, such capital structure will be deemed to include a $6.0 billion “Tax Benefits Monetization Transaction” for the purposes of the Backstop Commitment Letter.

The Backstop Parties’ funding obligations under the Backstop Commitment Letters are subject to numerous conditions, including, among others, that (a) the Backstop Commitment Letters have been approved by the Bankruptcy Court, (b) the conditions precedent to the Effective Date set forth in the Plan have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the Plan, (c) the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order confirming the Plan and approving the transactions contemplated thereunder, which shall confirm the Plan with such amendments, modifications, changes and consents as are approved by holders of a majority of the aggregate Backstop Commitments (the “Confirmation Order”), (d) PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s weighted average earning rate base for 2021 is no less than 95% of $48 billion, and (e) there has been no event, occurrence or other circumstance that would have or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business of PG&E Corporation and the Utility or their ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Backstop Commitment Letters and the Plan.

•the Plan or any supplements to or other documents in connection with the Plan has been amended, modified or changed, without the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate Backstop Commitments, to include a process for transferring the license and operating assets of the Utility to the State of California or a third party (a “Transfer”) or PG&E Corporation and the Utility effect a Transfer other than pursuant to the Plan. There can be no assurance that the conditions precedent set forth in the Backstop Commitment Letters will be satisfied or waived, nor that events or circumstances will not occur that give rise to termination rights of the Backstop Parties.

The commitment premium for the Backstop Commitments is paid in shares of PG&E Corporation’s common stock (with each Backstop Party receiving its pro rata share of 119.0 million shares of the Corporation’s common stock based on the proportion of the amount of such Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment to $12 billion). This aggregate 119 million share amount will be adjusted through the issuance of additional shares in the event that the aggregate value of the 119 million shares paid as the Backstop Commitment premium is less than $764 million based on the market price of the Corporation’s common stock following the Effective Date, subject to a cap of 19,909,091 additional shares in total. Such commitment premium was earned in full upon Bankruptcy Court approval of the Backstop Commitment Letters, subject to clawback under certain circumstances set forth in the Backstop Commitment Letters. In the event that a plan of reorganization for PG&E Corporation that is not the Plan is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, then the Backstop Commitment premium will be payable in cash if elected by the applicable Backstop Party. Under the Backstop Commitment Letters, PG&E Corporation and the Utility have also agreed to reimburse the Backstop Parties for reasonable professional fees and expenses of up to $34 million in the aggregate for the legal advisors and $19 million in the aggregate for the financial advisor, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Backstop Commitment Letters.

On October 11, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility entered into debt commitment letters, which were subsequently amended on November 18, 2019, December 20, 2019, January 30, 2020, and February 14, 2020 (as amended, the “Debt Commitment Letters”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., Barclays Bank PLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC and the other lenders that may become parties to the Debt Commitment Letters as additional “Commitment Parties” as provided therein (the foregoing parties, collectively, the “Commitment Parties”), pursuant to which the Commitment Parties committed to provide $10.825 billion in bridge financing in the form of (a) a $5.825 billion senior secured bridge loan facility (the “OpCo Facility”) with the Utility or any domestic entity formed to hold all of the assets of the Utility upon emergence from bankruptcy (the Utility or any such entity, the “OpCo Borrower”) as borrower thereunder and (b) a $5.0 billion senior unsecured bridge loan facility (together with the OpCo Facility, the “Facilities”) with PG&E Corporation or any domestic entity formed to hold all of the assets of PG&E Corporation upon emergence from bankruptcy (the Corporation or any such entity, the “HoldCo Borrower”) as borrower thereunder, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. The commitments under the Debt Commitment Letters will expire on August 29, 2020, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the termination rights described below.

Borrowings under the OpCo Facility would be senior secured obligations of the OpCo Borrower, secured by substantially all of the assets of the OpCo Borrower. Borrowings under the HoldCo Facility would be senior unsecured obligations of the HoldCo Borrower. The OpCo Borrower’s obligations under the OpCo Facility, and the HoldCo Borrower’s obligations under the HoldCo Facility, would not be guaranteed by any other entity. The scheduled maturity of each of the Facilities would be 364 days following the date the Facilities are funded. PG&E Corporation and the Utility will pay customary fees and expenses in connection with obtaining the Facilities (including commitment fees and ticking fees but excluding any fees related to the funding of the Facilities). If the entire $10.825 billion of bridge commitments remain outstanding as of June 30, 2020, the aggregate fees payable (including commitment fees and ticking fees, but excluding any fees related to the funding of the Facilities) by PG&E Corporation and the Utility would be approximately $75 million.

In connection with the anticipated funding for the Plan and the anticipated amount of debt and equity to be used for funding thereunder, on February 14, 2020, the Debt Commitment Letters were amended to, among other things, (1) adjust the maximum amount of any roll-over, “take-back” or reinstated debt permitted under the Facilities from $30 billion to $33.35 billion at the Utility and from $7.0 billion to $5.0 billion at PG&E Corporation and (2) increase the amount of proceeds from the issuance of debt securities or other debt for borrowed money as a condition to funding from $2.0 billion at PG&E Corporation to $6.0 billion at the Utility.

The Commitment Parties’ funding obligations under the Debt Commitment Letters are subject to numerous conditions and termination rights, including, among others, certain conditions and termination rights similar to those included in the Backstop Commitment Letters, in addition to conditions that are not in the Backstop Commitment Letters, including (a) the delivery of specified financial information, (b) PG&E Corporation’s receipt of at least $9.0 billion of proceeds from the issuance of equity, (c) the execution of definitive documentation for the Facilities and (d) that the Utility shall have received investment grade senior secured debt ratings. The Utility’s ability to borrow under the OpCo Facility is subject to approval by the CPUC.

On October 17, 2019, the TCC and the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee filed the Ad Hoc Noteholder Plan. On December 19, 2019, pursuant to the TCC RSA (described below), the TCC filed a notice of withdrawal as a plan proponent of the Ad Hoc Noteholder Plan with the Bankruptcy Court. The Ad Hoc Noteholder Plan differed from the Plan in a number of respects, including, but not limited to, its treatment of equity interests, its treatment of holders of claims in respect of debt of PG&E Corporation and the Utility and its financing sources.

On January 22, 2020, the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee entered into the Noteholder RSA with PG&E Corporation and the Utility, under which it agreed, upon entry of the order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the Noteholder RSA, to withdraw any participation in and support for the Ad Hoc Noteholder Plan, including by taking certain actions to defer further action on the make-whole and post-petition interest issues. On February 4, 2020, the Noteholder RSA was approved by the Bankruptcy Court, and on February 5, 2020, the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee withdrew the Ad Hoc Noteholder Plan. It is possible that, if the Noteholder RSA is terminated, the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee could re-file a competing plan with similar or different terms.

Effective on the Petition Date, PG&E Corporation and the Utility began to apply accounting standards applicable to reorganizations, which are applicable to companies under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. These accounting standards require the financial statements for periods subsequent to the Petition Date to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses that are directly associated with reorganization proceedings must be reported separately as reorganization items, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. In addition, the balance sheet must distinguish pre-petition LSTC of PG&E Corporation and the Utility from pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise, post-petition liabilities, and liabilities of the subsidiaries of PG&E Corporation that are not debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. LSTC are pre-petition obligations that are not fully secured and have at least a possibility of not being repaid at the full claim amount. Where there is uncertainty about whether a secured claim will be paid or impaired pursuant to the Chapter 11 Cases, PG&E Corporation and the Utility have classified the entire amount of the claim as LSTC.

Furthermore, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtors-in-possession, actions to enforce or otherwise effect the payment of certain claims against PG&E Corporation and the Utility in existence before the Petition Date are stayed while PG&E Corporation and the Utility continue business operations as debtors-in-possession. These claims are reflected as LSTC in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2020. Additional claims (which could be LSTC) may arise after the Petition Date resulting from the rejection of executory contracts, including leases, and from the determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or agreement by parties-in-interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and other disputed amounts.

As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the payment of pre-petition liabilities is subject to compromise or other treatment pursuant to a plan of reorganization. Generally, actions to enforce or otherwise effect payment of pre-petition liabilities are stayed. Although payment of pre-petition claims generally is not permitted, the Bankruptcy Court granted PG&E Corporation and the Utility authority to pay certain pre-petition claims in designated categories and subject to certain terms and conditions. This relief generally was designed to preserve the value of PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s business and assets. As described above, among other things, the Bankruptcy Court authorized, but did not require, PG&E Corporation and the Utility to pay certain pre-petition claims relating to employee wages and benefits, taxes, and amounts owed to certain vendors.

The determination of how liabilities will ultimately be settled or treated cannot be made until the Bankruptcy Court confirms a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization and such plan becomes effective. Accordingly, the ultimate amount of such liabilities is not determinable at this time. GAAP requires pre-petition liabilities that are subject to compromise to be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court, even if they may be settled for different amounts. The amounts currently classified as LSTC are preliminary and may be subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determinations of the secured status of certain claims, the values of any collateral securing such claims, rejection of executory contracts, continued reconciliation or other events.

⁽²⁾At March 31, 2020, PG&E Corporation and the Utility had $650 million and $21,526 million in aggregate principal amount of pre-petition indebtedness, respectively. Pre-petition financing debt includes accrued contractual interest of $1 million and $286 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, to the Petition Date. Financing debt also includes post-petition interest of $20 million and $815 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the Noteholder RSA. See Note 5 for details of pre-petition debt reported as LSTC.

⁽²⁾At December 31, 2019, PG&E Corporation and the Utility had $650 million and $21,526 million in aggregate principal amount of pre-petition indebtedness, respectively. Pre-petition financing debt includes accrued contractual interest of $1 million and $286 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, to the Petition Date. Financing debt also includes post-petition interest of $15 million and $638 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the Noteholder RSA. See Note 5 for details of pre-petition debt reported as LSTC.

On December 30, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court issued a memorandum decision in which it ruled that the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors is entitled to post-petition interest at the Federal Judgment Rate of 2.59%. Pursuant to the Noteholder RSA, holders of $11.9 billion in aggregate principal amount of Utility Short-Term Senior Notes, Utility Long-Term Senior Notes and Utility Funded Debt will receive interest at the contractual rate for accrued and unpaid pre-petition interest plus interest at the Federal Judgment Rate on the sum of the applicable principal plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest for the period commencing the day after the Petition Date and ending on the Effective Date. The $9.58 billion in aggregate principal of Utility Reinstated Senior notes will accrue interest at the contractual rate in accordance with the terms of the Noteholder RSA. From the Petition Date through March 31, 2020, the Utility concluded that interest was probable of being an allowed claim and resumed recording interest on pre-petition debt subject to compromise in accordance with the Noteholder RSA. The interest rate on trade payables subject to contracts that will remain in effect through the Chapter 11 Cases will be charged at the contractual rate or at the State of California statutory rate of 10%.

PG&E Corporation and the Utility have received over 100,000 proofs of claim since the Petition Date. PG&E Corporation and the Utility continue their review and analysis of certain claims including litigation claims, trade creditor claims, non-qualified benefit plan claims, claims arising from the Utility’s 2001 Chapter 11 case and customer deposits and advances, along with other tax and regulatory claims and therefore the ultimate liability of PG&E Corporation or the Utility for such claims may differ from the amount recorded in liabilities subject to compromise. To the extent that PG&E Corporation and the Utility believe that such claims will be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court, PG&E Corporation and the Utility will continue to record the expected allowed amounts of such claims as liabilities subject to compromise. The determination of the expected allowed amount of a claim is based on many factors, including whether PG&E Corporation or the Utility is party to a settlement agreement with applicable claimholders or their representatives, and is necessarily limited to information available to PG&E Corporation and the Utility. Claims covered by a settlement agreement include wildfire-related claims and Utility debt claims. See “Restructuring Support Agreement with the TCC,” “Restructuring Support Agreements with Holders of Subrogation Claims,” and “Plan Support Agreements with Public Entities” in Note 10 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on settlement of wildfire-related claims, and “Restructuring Support Agreement with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Committee” in Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on settlement of Utility debt claims. As PG&E Corporation and the Utility continue to resolve claims, differences between those final allowed claims and the liabilities recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet will be recognized in PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s Statement of Consolidated Income (Loss) as they are resolved. The determination of how liabilities will ultimately be resolved cannot be made until the Bankruptcy Court approves a plan of reorganization or approves orders related to settlement of specific liabilities. Accordingly, the ultimate amount or resolution of such liabilities is not determinable at this time. The resolution of such claims could result in substantial adjustments to PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s financial statements.

Reorganization items, net, represent amounts incurred after the Petition Date as a direct result of the Chapter 11 Cases and are comprised of professional fees and financing costs, net of interest income. Reorganization items also include adjustments to reflect the carrying value of LSTC at their estimated allowed claim amounts, as such adjustments are approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Cash paid for reorganization items, net was $57 million and $117 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to $17 million and $91 million for PG&E Corporation and the Utility, respectively, during the same period in 2019. Reorganization items, net for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and from the Petition Date through March 31, 2020 include the following:

On June 7, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court granted PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s motion for declaratory judgment in an adversary proceeding entitled Pacific Gas and Electric Company v. FERC. In its amended declaratory judgment, the Bankruptcy Court found that FERC had no “concurrent jurisdiction, or any jurisdiction, over the determination of whether any rejections of power purchase contracts by either Debtor should be authorized” pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court also found that the “Debtors do not need approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to reject any of their power purchase contracts” and that “[a]ny determinations of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission” that were contrary to these findings “are void, of no force and effect and not binding on this court or either Debtor.” The Bankruptcy Court further stated that such determinations include, but are not limited to, those previously made in certain FERC proceedings initiated before the Chapter 11 Cases were filed in connection with power purchase contracts with the Utility (the “FERC Orders”).

On June 12, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court certified its amended declaratory judgment for direct appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On July 15, 2019, FERC and certain counterparties to the Utility’s power purchase agreements filed requests for the Ninth Circuit to permit such direct appeal, which the Ninth Circuit granted on September 17, 2019. On September 17, 2019, the Ninth Circuit granted the requests and docketed both appeals. Opening briefs of FERC and the other appellants were filed on November 20, 2019, PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s answering brief was filed on December 20, 2019, and reply briefs of FERC and the other appellants were filed on January 17, 2020. Oral argument is scheduled for August 12 or 14, 2020. Separately, on June 26, 2019, the Utility filed a petition for review of the FERC Orders, also in the Ninth Circuit. On September 20, 2019, the Ninth Circuit granted the Utility’s motion to align the briefing schedule with the direct appeals from the Bankruptcy Court. The Utility’s opening brief was filed on November 20, 2019, FERC’s and respondent-intervenors’ answering briefs were filed on December 20, 2019, and the Utility’s reply brief was filed on January 17, 2020. Oral argument is scheduled for August 12 or 14, 2020.

Various electricity suppliers filed claims in the Utility’s 2001 prior proceeding filed under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code seeking payment for energy supplied to the Utility’s customers between May 2000 and June 2001. While the FERC and judicial proceedings are pending, the Utility pursued settlements with electricity suppliers and entered into a number of settlement agreements with various electricity suppliers to resolve some of these disputed claims and to resolve the Utility’s refund claims against these electricity suppliers. Under these settlement agreements, amounts payable by the parties, in some instances, would be subject to adjustment based on the outcome of the various refund offset and interest issues being considered by the FERC. Generally, any net refunds, claim offsets, or other credits that the Utility receives from electricity suppliers either through settlement or through the conclusion of the various FERC and judicial proceedings are refunded to customers through rates in future periods.
