Item 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 24, 2025, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the “

Utility

”), the several lenders and other financial institutions or entities party thereto from time to time and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “

Administrative Agent

”), entered into a $500,000,000 Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “

Credit Agreement

”). The loans under the Credit Agreement have a maturity date of September 23, 2026. The Utility borrowed the entire amount of the loans under the Credit Agreement on September 24, 2025.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest based on the Utility’s election of either (1) Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.25%, or (2) the alternative base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.25%.

The Utility’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by the issuance of a first mortgage bond, issued pursuant to the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture to the Mortgage Indenture (each as defined herein), secured by a first lien on substantially all of the Utility’s real property and certain tangible personal property related to its facilities, subject to certain exceptions, and which will rank pari passu with the Utility’s other first mortgage bonds.

The Credit Agreement includes usual and customary provisions for term loan agreements of this type, including covenants limiting, with certain exceptions, (1) liens, (2) sale and leaseback transactions, (3) fundamental changes, (4) entering into swap agreements and (5) modifications to the Mortgage Indenture. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Utility maintain a ratio of total consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization of no greater than 65% as of the end of each fiscal quarter.

In the event of a default by the Utility under the Credit Agreement, including cross-defaults relating to specified other debt of the Utility or any of its significant subsidiaries in excess of $200 million, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the required lenders (or upon the request of the required lenders, shall), declare the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, including all accrued interest, payable immediately. For events of default relating to insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership, the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement become payable immediately.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03.Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

The information set forth in Item 1.01 is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.

Item 8.01.Other Events

In connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement, on September 24, 2025, the Utility and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “

Trustee

”) under that certain Indenture of Mortgage, dated as of June 19, 2020 (as amended and supplemented, the “

Mortgage Indenture

”), between the Utility and the Trustee entered into a Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture to the Mortgage Indenture (the “

Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture

”), in order to issue a collateral bond to secure the Utility’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.
