PG&E Corporation Given Loan Extension on $431 Million

LCG, October 22, 2002-Creditors of PG&E Corporation gave the company its second extension on its debt payments.

PG&E, parent to San Francisco Bay Area utility Pacific Gas & Electric, had been in communication with lenders for months in order to get more time to pay back $431 million in loans.

PG&E Corp. has been settling debts for unregulated affiliate PG&E National Energy Group, which saw its credit rating fall to junk status earlier this month. On Friday Moody's Investors Service downgraded PG&E National Energy Group's status as the company reported $21 million in losses in the third quarter.

PG&E Corp. asserts the extension, which gives the affiliate until November 14 to pay, will give it the liquidity necessary to operate for more than 3 years.
