<p>Pacific Gas and Electric Company Bankruptcy</p>

<p>A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; District Court
Ruling in Favor of PG&amp;E Corporation&rsquo;s and Pacific Gas and
Electric Company&rsquo;s (Utility) Express Preemption Argument</p>

<p>On August 30, 2002, the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California (District Court) reversed a March
18, 2002 order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of California (Bankruptcy Court) that disapproved
PG&amp;E Corporation&rsquo;s and the Utility&rsquo;s December 19,
2001 First Amended Disclosure Statement related to their proposed
plan of reorganization of the Utility (Plan).&nbsp; The District
Court ruled that Section 1123 of the United States Bankruptcy Code
(Bankruptcy Code) expressly preempts &ldquo;nonbankruptcy laws that
would otherwise apply to bar, among other things, transactions
necessary to implement the reorganization plan.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p>

<p>The District Court found that under the Bankruptcy Code, state
public utility commission approval is not required to implement the
transactions necessary to carry out a utility&rsquo;s
reorganization plan, except that a plan contemplating a rate change
cannot be confirmed unless the rate change is approved by the
appropriate regulatory commission.</p>

<p>The District Court noted, among other reasons, that the
Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 removed the prior statutory right of
approval by state commissions of the restructuring of public
utilities.&nbsp; As the District Court explained, &ldquo;[t]he
bankruptcy code at one time permitted state regulatory commissions
to wield considerable power over the reorganization of public
utilities.&nbsp; But now&mdash;with the exception of the right to
approve rate changes&mdash;it does not.&rdquo;&nbsp; (PG&amp;E
Corporation and the Utility believe that the Plan does not
contemplate a change in rates.)</p>

<p>The District Court noted that the Utility seeks the suspension
of nonbankruptcy law applying only to transactions necessary for
reorganization and does not contend that the reorganized companies
would be exempt from any laws on a going forward basis by virtue of
reorganization.</p>

<p>The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has indicated
it will appeal the District Court&rsquo;s ruling.</p>

<p>B.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Monthly
Operating Report</p>

<p>On August 30, 2002, the Utility filed its monthly operating
report for the month ended July 31, 2002 with the Bankruptcy Court.
The Utility's monthly operating report includes an unaudited income
statement for the month and an unaudited balance sheet dated as of
the end of the month.&nbsp; These unaudited financial statements
are attached as Exhibit 99 to this report. Although not included in
Exhibit 99, the monthly operating report also includes a statement
of receipts and disbursements, as well as other information.&nbsp;
The preliminary financial statements were prepared using certain
assumptions and estimates that are subject to revision.&nbsp; Any
adjustments for these estimates (based upon changes in facts and
circumstances, further analysis, and other factors) will be
reflected in the financial statements in the period during which
such adjustments are made.&nbsp; These adjustments could have a
material impact on reported results in the future.</p>
