Dear John
I want to personally thank you for your dedication and contributions to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the “Company”). In recognition of your value to the organization, I am pleased to offer you the following special retention incentive to encourage your continued employment.
The special retention incentive is comprised of an LTIP grant with a value of $1,500,000 (100% RSUs). The grant is contingent your acceptance of this retention incentive and will be granted on March 1, 2024. If the trading window is closed, the grant will be made on the day the trading window reopens. The grant will consist of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) that vest in accordance with the following schedule:
1. First-year anniversary of the grant date: 20% vest
2. Second-year anniversary of the grant date: 40% vest
3. Third-year anniversary of the grant date: 40% vest
The actual number of RSUs will be determined by dividing the grant value by the closing price of PG&E Corporation common stock on the grant date. The terms of the RSU award will be governed by the then current PG&E Corporation Long Term Incentive Plan and Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (collectively “LTIP Plan”). If you leave the company, unvested RSUs will be cancelled pursuant to the terms of the LTIP Plan. This retention incentive LTIP will not affect any previous LTIP grants you may have already received nor your eligibility to participate in the Company’s STIP and LTIP plans going forward.
The provisions of this agreement shall not be construed as an employment contract for any period of time and they do not alter your “at will” employment status with the company.
Sincerely,
/s/ PATRICIA POPPE
Patricia Poppe
Chief Executive Officer
