(1) Includes a $2.0 billion letter of credit sublimit. (2) For more information on the Receivables Securitization Program, see “Variable Interest Entities” in Note 2 above. (3) The amount the Utility may borrow under the Receivables Securitization Program is limited to the lesser of the facility limit and the facility availability. The facility limit fluctuates between $1.25 billion and $1.5 billion depending on the periods set forth in the transaction documents. Further, the facility availability may vary based on the amount of accounts receivable that the Utility owns that are eligible for sale to the SPV and the portion of those accounts receivable that are sold to the SPV that are eligible for advances by the lenders under the Receivables Securitization Program. Utility On April 16, 2024, the Utility amended its existing term loan agreement to combine its $400 million 2-year tranche loan maturing April 19, 2024 and its $125 million 364-day tranche loan maturing April 16, 2024 into a single loan of $525 million maturing April 15, 2025. The loan bears interest based on the Utility’s election of either (1) Term SOFR (plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment) plus an applicable margin of 1.375% or (2) the alternative base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.375%. Long-Term Debt Issuances and Redemptions Utility On February 28, 2024, the Utility completed the sale of (i) $850 million aggregate principal amount of 5.550% First Mortgage Bonds due 2029, (ii) $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.800% First Mortgage Bonds due 2034 and (iii) $300 million aggregate principal amount of 6.750% First Mortgage Bonds due 2053. The Utility used the net proceeds for the repayment of borrowings outstanding under the Utility’s revolving credit facility pursuant to the Utility Revolving Credit Agreement. Convertible Notes On December 4, 2023, PG&E Corporation completed the sale of $2.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Convertible Senior Secured Notes due December 1, 2027 (the “Convertible Notes”). For more information about the Convertible Notes, see Note 4 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the 2023 Form 10-K. As of March 31, 2024, none of the conditions allowing holders of the Convertible Notes to convert had been met. SB 901 SECURITIZATION AND CUSTOMER CREDIT TRUST Pursuant to the financing order for the SB 901 securitization transactions, the Utility sold its right to receive revenues from the SB 901 Recovery Property to PG&E Wildfire Recovery Funding LLC, which, in turn, issued the recovery bonds secured by separate fixed recovery charges and separate SB 901 Recovery Property. The fixed recovery charges are designed to recover the full scheduled principal amount of the applicable series of recovery bonds along with any associated interest and financing costs. In the context of the customer harm threshold decision, which is intended to insulate customers from the fixed recovery charge, there is a customer credit, which is designed to equal the recovery bond principal, interest, and financing costs over the life of the recovery bonds. The customer credit is funded by the customer credit trust (see Note 9 below). The fixed recovery charges and customer credits are presented on a net basis in Operating revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and had no net impact on Operating revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Upon issuance of the Series 2022-A Recovery Bonds in May 2022 (“inception”), the Utility recorded a $5.5 billion SB 901 securitization regulatory asset reflecting PG&E Wildfire Recovery Funding LLC’s right to recover $7.5 billion in wildfire claims costs associated with the 2017 Northern California wildfires, partially offset by the $2.0 billion in required upfront shareholder contributions to the customer credit trust. Of the $2.0 billion in required upfront shareholder contributions, $1.0 billion was contributed to the customer credit trust in 2022, $350 million was contributed on March 28, 2024, and $650 million is required to be contributed no later than March 31, 2025 unless certain conditions are met requiring an earlier contribution or unless otherwise ordered by the CPUC. The Utility also recorded a $5.54 billion SB 901 securitization regulatory liability at inception, which represents certain shareholder tax benefits the Utility had previously recognized that will be returned to customers. As the Fire Victim Trust sold PG&E Corporation common stock shares it held, the SB 901 securitization regulatory liability increased accordingly. As tax benefits are monetized, contributions will be made to the customer credit trust, up to $7.59 billion. The Utility expects to amortize the SB 901 securitization regulatory asset and liability over the life of the recovery bonds, with such amortization reflected in Operating and maintenance expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Utility recorded $80 million for amortization of the regulatory asset and liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Utility recorded SB 901 securitization charges, net, of $273 million for tax benefits realized within income tax expense related to the Fire Victim Trust’s sale of PG&E Corporation common stock and $87 million for amortization of the regulatory asset and liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The following tables illustrate the changes in the SB 901 securitization’s impact on the Utility’s regulatory assets and liabilities:

(in millions) | 2024 |  | 2023
