Prior to each annual meeting, shareholders owning PG&E Corporation or Pacific Gas and Electric Company stock as of the record date for the meeting receive a Notice of Annual Meeting and Internet Availability of Proxy Materials ("Notice") or a copy of the Joint Proxy Statement, a proxy card, and an Annual Report. Both the Notice and the Joint Proxy Statement includes the time, date, and location of the meeting. The Joint Proxy Statement includes a discussion of business to be covered at the meeting, and information about our directors and officers so that shareholders can make an informed decision on the matters to be voted on at the meeting. The Notice includes directions to first view the Joint Proxy Statement and Annual Report on-line, as well as how to vote the shares. The Notice also includes directions on how to obtain a complete set of the proxy materials by mail.

By voting the shares on-line, over the telephone, or returning the completed and signed proxy card, shareholders can appoint our management to represent them at the meeting and instruct management to vote their shares in accordance with their wishes. This allows shareholders to participate in voting at the meeting, whether or not they decide to attend. If shares are held in "street name" in a brokerage account, the shareholder receives his or her proxy materials from the broker.

The PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company annual report to shareholders is mailed with the proxy materials.
