PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT - FINANCIAL
| The LTIP and Other Agreements | This Agreement and the above cover sheet constitute the entire understanding between you and PG&E Corporation regarding the Performance Shares, subject to the terms of the LTIP. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations are superseded. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement or the above cover sheet and the LTIP, the LTIP will govern. Capitalized terms that are not defined in this Agreement or the above cover sheet are defined in the LTIP. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement or the above cover sheet and the PG&E Corporation 2012 Officer Severance Policy, this Agreement or the above cover sheet will govern, as applicable. The LTIP provides the Committee with discretion to adjust the performance award formula. For purposes of this Agreement, employment with PG&E Corporation means employment with any member of the Participating Company Group. | ||||
Grant of Performance Shares | PG&E Corporation grants you the number of Performance Shares shown on the cover sheet of this Agreement (the “Performance Shares”). The Performance Shares are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the LTIP. | ||||
Vesting of Performance Shares Settlement in Shares/ Performance Goals | As long as you remain employed with PG&E Corporation, the Performance Shares will vest upon, and to the extent of, the Committee’s certification of the extent to which performance goals have been attained for this award as of December 31, 2020 (the “Vesting Date”), which certification will occur on or after January 1, 2021 but before March 15, 2021. Except as described below, all Performance Shares that have not vested will be cancelled upon termination of your employment. Vested Performance Shares will be settled in shares of PG&E Corporation common stock, subject to the satisfaction of Withholding Taxes, as described below. The number of shares you are entitled to receive will be calculated by multiplying the number of vested Performance Shares by the “payout percentage” determined as follows (except as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement), rounded to the nearest whole number. | ||||
The Performance Shares have performance goals consistent with those in the 2020 Short Term Incentive Plan, and as set forth in Exhibit A. The resulting payout percentage will be based on the achievement of the applicable performance goals as measured over the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. Achievement of the Performance Shares’ performance goals will be certified by the Committee. Subject to rounding considerations, if performance is below threshold, the payout percentage will be 0%; if performance is at threshold, the payout percentage will be 50%; if performance is at target, the payout percentage will be 100%; and if performance is at or better than maximum, the payout percentage will be 200%. The actual payout percentage for performance between threshold and maximum will be determined based on linear interpolation between the payout percentages for threshold and target, or target and maximum, as appropriate. The final score will be determined in the discretion of the PG&E Corporation Board of Directors or its delegate, including any decision to reduce or forego payment entirely. The final payout percentage, if any, will be determined as soon as practicable following the date that the Committee or an equivalent body certifies the extent to which the performance goals have been attained. PG&E Corporation will issue shares as soon as practicable after such determination, but no earlier than the Vesting Date, and not later than March 15 of the calendar year following the Vesting Date. | |||||
| Dividends | Each time that PG&E Corporation declares a dividend on its shares of common stock, an amount equal to the dividend multiplied by the number of Performance Shares granted to you by this Agreement will be accrued on your behalf. If you receive a Performance Share settlement in accordance with the preceding paragraph, at that same time you also will receive a cash payment equal to the amount of any dividends accrued with respect to your Performance Shares multiplied by the same payout percentage used to determine the number of shares you are entitled to receive, if any. | ||||
| Voluntary Termination | If you terminate your employment with PG&E Corporation voluntarily before the Vesting Date (other than for Retirement), all of the Performance Shares will be cancelled as of the date of such termination and any dividends accrued with respect to your Performance Shares will be forfeited. | ||||
| Termination for Cause | If your employment with PG&E Corporation is terminated at any time by PG&E Corporation for cause before the Vesting Date, all of the Performance Shares will be cancelled as of the date of such termination and any dividends accrued with respect to your Performance Shares will be forfeited. In general, termination for “cause” means termination of employment because of dishonesty, a criminal offense, or violation of a work rule, and will be determined by and in the sole discretion of PG&E Corporation. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be eligible to retire if your employment is being or is terminated for cause. | ||||
| Termination other than for Cause | If your employment with PG&E Corporation is terminated by PG&E Corporation other than for cause before the Vesting Date, a portion of your outstanding Performance Shares will vest proportionally based on the number of months prior to the Vesting Date that you were employed by PG&E (rounded down) during 2020. All other outstanding Performance Shares will be cancelled, and any associated accrued dividends will be forfeited, unless your termination of employment was in connection with a Change in Control as provided below. Your vested Performance Shares will be settled, if at all, as soon as practicable after the Vesting Date and no later than March 15 of the year following the Vesting Date, based on the payout percentage certified by the Committee. At that time you also will receive a cash payment, if any, equal to the amount of dividends accrued from the date of grant through the Vesting Date with respect to your vested Performance Shares multiplied by the same payout percentage used to determine the number of shares you are entitled to receive, if any. | ||||
| Death/Disability | If your employment terminates due to your death or disability before the Vesting Date, all of your Performance Shares will immediately vest as to the service requirement and will be settled, if at all, as soon as practicable after the Vesting Date and no later than March 15 of the year following completion of the Performance Period, based on the same payout percentage applied to active employees. At that time you also will receive a cash payment, if any, equal to the amount of dividends accrued over the Performance Period with respect to your Performance Shares multiplied by the same payout percentage used to determine the number of shares you are entitled to receive, if any. | ||||
| Change in Control | In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without your consent, either assume or continue PG&E Corporation’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or provide a substantially equivalent award in substitution for the Performance Shares subject to this Agreement. If the Acquiror assumes or continues PG&E Corporation’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or substitutes a substantially equivalent award, Performance Shares will vest on the Vesting Date, and performance will be deemed to have been achieved at target, resulting in a payout percentage of 100%. Settlement will occur as soon as practicable after the Vesting Date and no later than March 15 of the year following completion of the Performance Period. At that time you also will receive a cash payment, if any, equal to the amount of dividends accrued with respect to your Performance Shares over the Performance Period multiplied by a payout percentage of 100%. If the Change in Control of PG&E Corporation occurs before the Vesting Date, and if this award is neither so assumed nor so continued by the Acquiror, and the Acquiror does not provide a substantially equivalent award in substitution for the Performance Shares subject to this Agreement, all of your outstanding Performance Shares will vest and become nonforfeitable on the date of the Change in Control. Such vested Performance Shares will be settled, if at all, as soon as practicable following the original Vesting Date and no later than March 15 of the year following completion of the Performance Period. Performance will be deemed to have been achieved at target and the payout percentage will be 100%. At that time you also will receive a cash payment, if any, equal to the amount of dividends accrued with respect to your Performance Shares to the date of the Change in Control multiplied by a payout percentage of 100%. | ||||
| Termination In Connection with a Change in Control | If your employment is terminated by PG&E Corporation other than for cause in connection with a Change in Control within two years following the Change in Control, all of your outstanding Performance Shares (to the extent they did not previously vest upon failure of the Acquiror to assume or continue this award) will vest and become nonforfeitable on the date of termination of your employment. If your employment is terminated by PG&E Corporation other than for cause in connection with a Change in Control within three months before the Change in Control occurs, all of your outstanding Performance Shares will vest in full and become nonforfeitable (including the portion that you would have otherwise forfeited based on the proration of vested Performance Shares through the date of termination of your employment) as of the date of the Change in Control. Your vested Performance Shares will be settled, if at all, as soon as practicable following the original Vesting Date but no later than March 15 of the year following completion of the Performance Period, based on the same payout percentage applied to active employees (which in this case will be deemed to be at target, consistent with the “Change in Control” section, above). At that time you also will receive a cash payment, if any, equal to the amount of dividends accrued over the Performance Period with respect to your vested Performance Shares multiplied by the same payout percentage used to determine the number of shares you are entitled to receive, if any. PG&E Corporation has the sole discretion to determine whether termination of your employment was made in connection with a Change in Control. | ||||
| Withholding Taxes | The number of shares of PG&E Corporation common stock that you are otherwise entitled to receive upon settlement of your Performance Shares will be reduced by a number of shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value, as determined by PG&E Corporation, equal to the amount of any Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld by PG&E Corporation in connection with the Performance Shares determined using the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates, including social security and Medicare taxes due under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act and the California State Disability Insurance tax (“Withholding Taxes”). If the withheld shares were not sufficient to satisfy your minimum Withholding Taxes, you will be required to pay, as soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any amount of the Withholding Taxes that is not satisfied by the withholding of shares described above. | ||||
| Leaves of Absence | For purposes of this Agreement, if you are on an approved leave of absence from PG&E Corporation, or a recipient of PG&E Corporation sponsored disability benefits, you will continue to be considered as employed. If you do not return to active employment upon the expiration of your leave of absence or the expiration of your PG&E Corporation sponsored disability benefits, you will be considered to have voluntarily terminated your employment. See above under “Voluntary Termination.” PG&E Corporation reserves the right to determine which leaves of absence will be considered as continuing employment and when your employment terminates for all purposes under this Agreement. | ||||
| No Retention Rights | This Agreement is not an employment agreement and does not give you the right to be retained by PG&E Corporation. Except as otherwise provided in an applicable employment agreement, PG&E Corporation reserves the right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason. | ||||
| Recoupment of Awards | Awards are subject to recoupment in accordance with any applicable law and any recoupment policy adopted by the Corporation from time to time, including the PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy, as last revised on February 19, 2019 and available on the PG&E@Work intranet site for the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the policy and location may be changed from time to time by PG&E Corporation). | ||||
| Applicable Law | This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of California. | ||||
