      5.02.  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of
      Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
      Officers.
On
      January 7, 2008, PG&E Corporation's subsidiary, Pacific Gas and Electric
      Company (Utility), announced that the Utility's Board of Directors had elected
      John S. Keenan as Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the
      Utility effective January 1, 2008.  Mr. Keenan will continue to report
      to William T. Morrow, President and Chief Executive Officer of the
      Utility.  Mr. Keenan joined the Utility in December 2005 as Senior
      Vice President, Generation and Chief Nuclear Officer.  Before joining
      the Utility, Mr. Keenan was employed by Progress Energy, an energy company
      headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, that owns two electric and gas
      utilities in the Carolinas and Florida.  From November 2003 to
      December 2005 Mr. Keenan served as Vice President, Fossil Generation for
      Progress Energy and from May 1998 to November 2003 he served as Vice President
      of Progress Energy's Brunswick Nuclear Power Plant.
Mr.
      Keenan's compensation includes a base salary of $500,000, effective January 1,
      2008. Mr. Keenan also will continue to be eligible to participate in the
      PG&E Corporation Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP) with a target
      participation rate equal to 55% of his annual base salary, or
      $275,000.  Maximum awards under the STIP equal two times the target
      amount.  Actual STIP awards are determined by the Compensation
      Committee of the PG&E Corporation Board of Directors (Committee) based on
      the extent to which certain pre-established performance criteria are
      met.  Mr. Keenan also will continue to be eligible to receive an award
      under the PG&E Corporation 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) as of the
      first business day of March 2008.  The Committee has previously
      approved LTIP value ranges for 2008 awards of $700,000 (minimum), $1,000,000
      (target), and $1,400,000 (maximum) for officers at Mr. Keenan's
      level.  Actual LTIP awards will be approved by the Committee in
      February 2008.
Mr.
      Keenan is entitled to participate in other benefits generally provided to
      Utility employees.  In addition, as an executive officer, Mr. Keenan
      is entitled to receive benefits available to other Utility executive officers,
      including an annual perquisite allowance of $25,000, participation in the
      PG&E Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (which provides
      retirement benefits in excess of the pension benefits that would otherwise
      be
      payable under the Utility's defined benefit pension plan), and participation in
      the PG&E Corporation Supplemental Retirement Savings Plan (under which a
      participant may elect to defer compensation and under which PG&E Corporation
      makes matching contributions credited to the participant's account to the extent
      such matching contributions could not be made under PG&E Corporation's
      401(k) savings plan due to legal limitations).
Mr.
      Keenan does not have any relationship or related transaction with PG&E
      Corporation or the Utility that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 401(d)
      or Item 404(a) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.
