The Parties agree that the level of rates to be charged under Rate Schedule No. R-1 after May 31, 1986, excluding the FCA base energy charge included in the base energy component of the Rate Schedule, will change according to the resale rate adjustment mechanism described below. I1I.2. Following each Qualifying CPUC Retail Rate Adjustment (QRRA) , the then-existing rate components of Rate Schedule No. R-1 will be multiplied by a resale rate adjustment factor to determine new rate levels. Such new rate levels will be effective as of the later of June 1, 1986 or the effective date of such QRRA. The Resale rate adjustment factor shall equal the Adjusted Retail Base Revenue Amount (ABRA) divided by the Stated Retail Base Revenue Amount (SBRA). Following each change in resale rates made through this resale rate adjustment mechanism, ARRA shall become the SBRA to be used for the next resale rate adjustment. ABRA shall equal the sum of SBRA plus the amount of the QRRA. A QRRA is a non-definitional change, authorized in a CPUC decision, in retail Base Revenue Amount as specified in Preliminary Statement, Issued by: S. P. Reynolds , Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 7 of 34 Part E, No. 4 of PGandE's Tariff Schedules on file with the CPUC (BRA) which corresponds to a net change in total retail electric base revenue requirement authorized by the CPUC to be collected from retail customers. If a CPUC decision or part thereof has only the effect of changing the definition of BRA, then such decision or part thereof will not be included in the calculation of a new ABRA, even though such decision or part thereof may result in an adjustment to BRA. Definitional changes occur, for example, (a) when an identifiable cost currently collected as part of base revenue is transferred pursuant to the decision in question to another portion of PGandE' s cost recovery such as the Energy Cost Adjustment Clause (ECAC) or the Annual Energy Rate (AER) , or (b) conversely, when an identifiable cost is transferred to BRA from another cost recovery mechanism such as ECAC or AER. Electric Revenue Rate Adjustment Mechanism (ERAM) adjustment in PGandE' s retail rates due to under or overcollections in the ERAM balancing account will not result in any change in resale rates. A single CPUC decision may combine several adjustments , such as (a) an increase or decrease in the total authorized BRA, (b) a change in the definition of BRA, and (c) a truing of differences 9 between allowed and recovered BRA' s through ERAM.

Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 8 of 34 nondefinitional changes within such decision will constitute the QRRA for purposes of the resale rate adjustment mechanism. III.3. The initial SBRA shall be $2,828,831,081 as of January 1, 1986, in accordance with Appendix I to this Part III. Any QRRA not listed on Appendix I to this Part III made effective on or subsequent to the effective date of this Agreement shall result in new rate levels effective as of the later of June 1, 1986 or the effective date of such QRRA. 1I1.4. If, in conjunction with or instead of authorizing a change in RRA, the CPUC orders a modification to ECAC or the creation of or modification to any other mechanism to allow PGandE to recover Costs incurred in owning and operating the Diablo Canyon Nuc ear Power Plant (Diablo) or any portion thereof, or to recover any other CPUC authorized Costs attributable to PGandE' s Electric Department, the Parties agree to implement consistent and concurrent modifications to Rate Schedule No. R-1 in such a manner as to preserle the l intention of the Parties to provide that changes in authorized revenue requirement which occur in the CPUC jurisdiction be proportionately reflected in the levels of the rate components of Rate Schedule No. R-1 after May 31, 1986.

PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 9 of 34 to a final CPUC decision authorizing recovery of Diablo Unit No. 1 Costs in retail rates shall occur through the Temporary Rate Implementation Procedure for Diablo Unit No. 1 in Part IV which represents a specific implementation of the provisions of this paragraph. The Parties will employ a similar mechanism for interim recovery of CPUC authorized Costs incurred in the operation of Diablo Unit No. 2 from the later of June 1, 1986 or the effective date of each retail rate increase provided for in a CPUC decision which prescribes a manner of initial or interim cost recovery for Diablo Unit No. 2. III.5. If, prior to January 1 , 1987, the CPUC authorizes PGandE to adjust retail rates to reflect past over- or underrecovery of authorized Costs related to Diablo, Redding's proportionate share of the adjustment for any such over- or underrecovery in retail revenue requirement will be reflected: 1) pursuant to the resale rate adjustment mechanism described herein, in Rate Schedule No. R-1 or through some other agreed upon rate mechanism until fully amortized 2) only for the period June 1 , 1986 through December 11 , 1986. The Parties further agree that any such over- or underrecoverylremaining unamortized as of December 31, 1986, will be amortized for a period beyond that date such that the total amortization period for such Issued by: S. P. Reynolds , Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 10 of 34 adjustment ends twelve months from the date that the amortization commenced unless the Parties agree to a different amortization period. • III.6. If, after December 31, 1986, the CPUC authorizes PGandE to adjust retail rates to reflect past over- or underrecovery of authorized Costs related to Diablo and incurred by PGandE prior to January 1, 1987, Redding's proportionate share of such adjustment will : 1) be only for the period June 1, 1986 through December 31, 1986, 2) unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, be amortized as a separately identified. surcharge or credit, regardless of whether Redding at such time is taking any service under Rate Schedule No. R-1. Such amortization will occur over a 12-month period commencing with the effective date of the CPUC-authorized change in retail rates unless the Parties agree to a different amortization period.

In accordance with the intention of PGandE and Redding to establish a rate mechanism to recover costs for Unit No. 1 of Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant (Diablo) , the Parties adopt a mechanism which is designed to provide PGandE rate relief for Diablo from Redding consistent with the CPUC's interim decision on Diablo • (No. 85-12-085) issued prior to a retail base rate or other revenue adjustment to be authorized by the CPUC in a final decision on PGandE's application for recovery of authorized Diablo Costs in retail rates. The mechanism provides for developing and charging a Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate to Redding based on the provisions of this Part IV. IV.2. In an interim decision concerning Diablo Unit No. 1 (No. 85-12-085) , the CPUC authorized PGandE to collect an annual revenue requirement of $388 million as of January 1 , 1986 through the Diablo Canyon Adjustment Clause (DCAC) . Redding' s allocated portion of this annual interim revenue requirement fnr Diablo is agreed to be $39,42.0, as calculated on Appendix I to this Part IV, unless adjusted in accordance with paragraph 4 of this Part IV.

Reynolds , Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 1110 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. — Page 12 of 34 IV.3. Commencing June 1, 1986, the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate to be charged by PGandE and paid by Redding shall be 6.05 mills per kWh as calculated on Appendix I to this Part IV. In order to prevent overrecovery or underrecovery of Redding's proportionate share of PGandE's annual interim revenue requirement for Diablo, the total amount paid by Redding through the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate shall be compared to Redding's proportionate share of tlhe annual interim revenue requirement for Diablo ($39,420) as of December 31, 1986. Within 30 days of that date, Redding shall pay to PGandE or PGandE shall refund to Redding, as appropriate, an amount necessary to reconcile total payments through the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate and Redding's proportionate share of PGandE 's annual interim revenue requirement for Diablo ($39,420). Also, as of December .31, 1986, the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate shall be adjusted to equal Redding's proportionate share of PGandE's annual interim revenue requirement for Diablo ($39,420) divided by the total kWh of energy purchased by Redding from PGandE In 1986. IV.4 If the CPUC issues any decision modifying or replacing the interim rate mechanism authorized in CPUC Decision No. 85-12-085 for recoveryof Diablo costs until the CPUC issues a final Diablo II ratemaking and prudency decision, the Parties will adjust the form or level , as appropriate, of the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate to Issued by: S. P. Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Su lement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 13 of 34 Redding, unless the Parties agrees to a different treatment of such CPUC decision in accordance with Part V of this Agreement or through another rate mechanism. Such adjustment shall be consistent with the intent of this Temporary Rate Implementation Procedure for Diablo to provide for recovery in resale rates of Redding's proportionate share of Diablo costs authorized by the CPUC. Any CPUC decision related to Diablo Canyon No. 2 issued between January 2, 1986 and December 31, 1986 shall be implemented in a manner consistent with this Part IV as of June 1, 1986 or the effective date established by the CPUC, whichever date is later. IV.5. Upon issuance by the CPUC of a final Diablo ratemaking and prudency decision, Redding's share of PGandE's revenue requirement for Diablo shall be computed in accordance with Part V of this Agreement. In order to track, for informational purposes only, Redding's share of PGandE's revenue requirement for Diablo as filed with the CPUC, PGandE will establish and employ a Diablo Canyon Adjustment Account for Redding (DCAACOR) which will record an estimate of Redding' s share of such revenue requirement for Diablll . The purpose of making monthly entries to the DCAACOR is (1) to give PGandE and Redding an estimate of the balance Redding might owe IlGandE on the effective date of the final Diablo ratemaking and prudency decision • Issued by: S. P. Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 14 of 34 from the CPUC if PGandE's estimate of Diablo's revenue requirement is included in the BRA; and (2) to facilitate retroactive adjustment payments, if any, computed in accordance with the preceding paragraph, consistent with the final revenue requirement and rate treatment adopted for Diablo during the period from June 1, 1986 until the effective date of the final ratemaking and prudency decision from the CPUC and with amounts paid under the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate and any similar mechanism. Starting June 1986, a debit entry of $5,825 shall be made to the DCAACOR each month based on Appendix II to this Part TV. If PGandE files a revised revenue requirement for Diablo with the CPUC in 1986, this revised revenue requirement shall be the basis for calculation of a new annual revenue requirement used toi determine the monthly debit entry to the DCAACOR from the month in which the revised revenue requirement is filed with the CPUC. Sllch new debit entry shall be calculated on the basis of the then-current FERC jurisdictional allocation and Redding's share thereof IIs computed in accordance with Appendix II. In addition, a credit entry shall be made to the DCAACOR each month equal to Redding' s allocated portion of PGar,dE' s actual fuel savings from Diablo, or such succeeding basis as the CPUC may authorize for the interim recovery of Diablo Issued by: S. P. Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 15 of 34 Costs in retail rates, for that month.

Section 35. 19a(a)(2)(iii )(A), as it may be amended, shall also be made to the DCAACOR. IV.6. Upon issuance of a final Diablo ratemaking and prudency decision by the CPUC which authorizes a mechanism to adjust retail base rates, ECAC or other rates to recover Diablo Costs, PGandE will discontinue • charging the Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate described herein as of the effective date of the change in retail rates designated in the CPUC decision. PGandE will reflect Redding's proportionate share of authorized Diablo Costs through Redding's base rates , FCA or another rate mechanism, in accordance with this Part IV or Part V of this Agreement, starting from the later of June 1, 1986 or the same effective date designated by the CPUC. If the mechanism or any part of the mechanism includes an adjustment to rates or the FCA to reflect the difference between monies collected for Diablo from June 1, 1986 until the date the mechanism becomes eff1ctive, PGandE shall collect or refund the difference between Reddinll ' s proportionate share of money derived from the mechanism ultimately adopted for Diablo by the CPUC and any monies collected by the • Issued by: S.

Diablo Energy Adjustment Rate described herein including interest at the Interest Rate on such difference, provided the CPUC decision authorizes interest as part of implementing the mechanism. IV.7. In accordance with paragraph'VII.5 of Part VII of this Agreement, PGandE may pursue such other methods of cost recovery for Diablo as it deems appropriate, including the filing of rates which include the Costs of Diablo with the FERC pursuant to Section 205 of the Federal Power Act; provided that PGandE shall not seek o modify through any such filing Redding' s obligations incurred as provided herein for recovery of Redding's share of Diablo Costs during the period ending December 31, 1986.

The Parties agree that the fuel cost adjustment mechanism (FCA) which shall be used in calculating the energy charge for the Supplemental Power Service shall be the fuel cost adjustment provided below. Any unamortized balance (either positive or negative) in the Electric Energy Cost Adjustment Account which is due to (or owed by) Redding as of the effective date of this Agreement shall be assigned to a new Electric Energy Cost Adjustment Account-COR (ECA-COR) in accordance with the method used to allocate such balance among other resale customers in FERC Docket No. ER86-107. PGandE Ilnd Redding agree the amount of Redding's assigned share of the unamortized balance (initial balance) shall be $10,983.09. The initial balance and entries to the ECA-COR shall be adjusted in accordance with such changes to the allocation method among resale customers as may be accepted or ordered by FERC, including as the result of any settle- ment agreement, except as otherwise agreed by the Parties. Such adjustment shall be applied to Redding' s bills from PGandE as a surcharge or credit, provided that Redding may elect to have any Issued by: S. P.

PGandE will confer with Redding in determining the amount of sulch adjustment. Any balance in the Electric Energy Cost Adjustment Account of the present FCA which exists at the time a successor FCA becomes effective will be carried forward and fully amortized pursuant to the terms of the successor FCA provision contemplated under this Agreement. In addition, the successor FCA contemplated under this Agreement will provide for the amortization of any balances existing at the time any further amended or successor FCA provision is made effective. VI.2. Applicability This fuel cost adjustment provision applies to bills for service to Redding under Rate Schedule R-1. VI.3. Billing Amount The amount hereunder to be added to or subtracted from each bill determined at the Base Rate shall be the product of the total kilowatt-hours for which the bill is rendered multiplied by the Adjustment Rate.

Base Rates The Base Rates are the rates for service under Rate Schedule R-1 under this Agreement. VI.5. Base Weighted Average Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy The Base Weighted Average Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy is $0.00233 per kilowatt-hour of sales to Redding. Thermal energy is electric energy where the source of energy for the prime mover is heat. Economy energy is electric energy produced from a source outside PGandE's system and substituted for energy that could have been produced by a loss economical source in the Pound` systc . VI.6. Record Period The volumes of thermal and economy energy, fuel related thereto, and electric energy consumed, purchased, and sold, shall be those recorded during the twelve calendar month period ending at the end of the second month prior to the month in which the Revision Date occurs. VI.7. Revision Dates Each Revision Date is the first day of each calendar month. The first Revision Date for Redding will be January 1, 1986, when the first adjustment rate for Redding will become effective. On each Issued by: S. P. Reynolds , Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Su lement No. _ FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 22 of 34 Revision Date, PGandE shall , in accordance with the provisions of this Part VI , place into effect an increase or decrease in the Adjustment Rate then in effect to reflect changes in the average cost of thermal and economy energy. VI.8. Adjustment Rate (a) The Adjustment Rate, to become effective for meter readings on and after each Revision Date and continuing thereafter until the next Adjustment Rate becomes effective in accordance herewith, shall be the arithmetic sum of an Offset Rate and a Balancing Rate, each multiplied by 1.002 (to adjust for franchise expense) and carried to the nearest $0.00001 per kilowatt-hour. (b) The Offset Rate shall be the difference, as set forth in paragraph VI.9 below, between the current weighted average thermal and economy energy cost per kilowatt-hour of sales to Redding and the Base Weighted Average Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy. (c) The Balancing Rate shall be an amount per kilowatt-hour of Redding sales necessary to amortize the accumulated balance in the ECA-COR, FERC Account Nos. 186 and 253. If the accumulated balance in that account, whether debit or credit, is 10 percent or more of the annual offset revenue, calculated by utilizing Issued by: S. P.

The procedures for maintaining the ECA-COR and for determining the Balancing Rate are set forth in paragraphs VI. 11 and VI.12 below. VI.9. Offset Rate The Offset Rate shall be determined by dividing (1) the amount of the Current Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy determined as specified below, by (2) the Record Period kilowatt-hours of applicable Redding sales, and (3) subtracting the Base Weighted Average Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy. VI.10. Current Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy The Current Cost of Thermal and Economy Energy shall be: (1) the volumes of gas and of each type of oil and coal fuel used by PGandE for electric generation in the Record Period (excluding fuel receipts in payment for electric service) , expressed in millions of Btu, and the volumes of geothermal production and of nuclear energy Issued by: S. P. Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 • PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 24 of 34 production, expressed in kilowatt-hours, multiplied by the current price of each set forth below; plus (2) the volumes of purchased thermal and economy energy in the Record Period multiplied by the actual average energy rates for such purchases in the most recent month in the Record Period for which such rates are available; multiplied by (3) the ratio of applicable sales to Redding to total PGandE system sales for the Record Period, and further multiplied by (4) 0.959 to reflect the estimated difference between system and jurisdictional losses. The current price of gas fuel shall be the applicable rate under CPUC Schedule No. G-55 or its successor expressed in dollars per million Btu, in effect the last day of the Record Period. The current price of oil and coal fuel shall be the average cost in dollars per million Btu of each type from inventory (FERC Account No. 151) in the last month of the Record Period. The current price of geothermal steam shall be the price per kilowatt-hour of geothermal plant output (including payments for effluent disposal ) of steam producers effective for production in the last month of the Record Period. The current price of nuclear fuel shall be the weighted average unit rate of amortization expressed in dollars per kilowatt-hour of nuclear fuel assemblies in-core, including an allowance for lease charges, transportation, and storage of spent fuel assemblies, in the last month of the Record Period.

The provisions of this Agreement are subject to acceptance by FERC of this Agreement in its entirety and without change or condition unsatisfactory to either Party. Each term of this Agreement is in consideration and support of every other term herein. Should FERC modify any provision of this Agreement in a manner unsatisfactory to either Party, this Agreement shall not become effective but shall be deemed terminated and withdrawn, and shall not constitute any part of the record in any FERC proceeding or be used for any other purposes whether between the Parties or between any Party and Third Parties. In the event that FERC action with respect to this Agreement results in the termination and withdrawal of this amendment, PGandE and Redding shall use their best efforts to renegotiate this Agreement. VII .2 The Parties agree that, for any change in rates made pursuant to this Agreement, PGandE may utilize an "Abbreviated Notice of Rate Change" in filing all adjustments to Rate Schedule FERC No. R-1 pursuant to Section 35. 13 of the Commission's Regulations under the Federal Power Act, 18 C.F.R § 35.13. Said Abbreviated Notice of Rate Change shall consist of: (a) a filing letter containing any necessary calculations made in accordance with the formulas set Issued by: S. P.

Redding agrees to support a request by PGandE that the FERC waive the requirements of Section 35.13 to the extent that such requirements are not satisfied by the format described above. VII.3. The Parties agree that Redding will seek either no suspension or no more than a one-day suspension of the effective date of any adjustment made pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any Party does request a one-day suspension in connection with any proposed adjustment in Rate Schedule FERC No. R-1, it is agreed that the proposed effective date of such adjustment will be deemed to be the day before the effective date of the relevant CPUC decision such that the effective date for the rates established under this Agreement, with a one-day suspension, will be the same as the effective date of such CPUC decision. A one-day suspension, hearing and other appropriate relief pursuant to Section 205 of the Federal Power Act shall be requested only on the basis of PGandE's alleged failure to accurately apply the terms of this Agreement to the computation of the level of rate components in Parts II and IV of this Agreement.

The Parties agree to make or support any requests for waiver of Commission Rules and Regulations necessary to implement ,the adjustments contemplated herein as of the effective dates provided in this Agreement, provided that PGandE provides Redding with a copy of the final version of its proposed FERC filing, including • supporting data and related CPUC orders, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of filing with the FERC unless otherwise agreed by • the Parties. VII.4. Since the revised rates contemplated under this Agreement cannot be specified until after the CPUC has issued an order establishing a given retail rate adjustment, and since the filing of the Abbre= viated Notices of Rate Change contemplated under this Agreement will , of necessity, occur after the effective date for the adjust- ments agreed to by the Parties, the Parties therefore agree that any increase or decrease in revenues resulting from each adjustment contemplated under this Agreement may be collected or refunded, if necessary, by PGandE as a separately identified surcharge or credit, retroactively to the effective dates for each such adjustment pursuant to this Agreement. This surcharge or credit will be derived from a recalculation of bills issued by PGandE under Rate Issued by: S. P. Reynolds, Vice President-Rates Issued on: Effective: January 2, 1986 I PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Supplement No. FERC Rate Schedule No. R-1 Supersedes Supplement No. Page 31 of 34 Schedule FERC No. R-1 from the date of the FERC order permitting the proposed rate to become effective, retroactive to the effective date for the proposed rate established pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any rate adjustment made hereunder results in the imposition of a surcharge, Redding shall have the option of paying such surcharge in lump sum or paying such surcharge in equal monthly payments up to, but not exceeding 12 months. All surcharges or refunds made pursuant to this Agreement shall be with interest computed in accordance with Section 35. 19a(a)(2)(iii )(A) of FERC Regulations, 18 C.F.R. § 35. 19a(a)(2)(iii )(A) , as it may be amended. VII.5. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as affecting Redding's rights under Section 205 and 206 of the Federal Power Act. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as affecting in any way the right of PGandE under this Agreement unilaterally to make application to the FERC or its successor for a change in rates under Section 205 of the Federa' Power Act and pursuant to the Commission 's Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder, nor shall either Puarty be deemed to waive its rights to object to or seek rejection of any filing or action by the other Party which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that rate levels in Rate Schedule Issued by: S.
