 on the date of benefit commencement, if earlier), an employee’s cash balance account is credited with pay credits based on a point system of age plus service and eligible pay during the year. At the end of each calendar quarter, the account is credited with interest credits, based on an average of the 30-year Treasury rates for the three months before the calendar quarter. Special interest credit rules apply in the quarter in which the benefit payment commences. The default forms of payment are similar to those under the final pay benefit formula. Additionally, however, a cash balance participant may elect a lump-sum payout that is eligible for rollover into an Individual Retirement Account or other tax-advantaged employer plan. Cash balance participants may elect to receive their vested benefit when they leave employment with any participating employer, regardless of whether they have attained age 55. The cash balance benefit does not include an early retirement reduction. No current NEOs elected to switch to the cash balance benefit.

PG&E Corporation’s non-qualified SERP provides benefits to certain officers and key employees. The SERP benefit formula is 1.7 percent of the average of the three highest combined salary and annual STIP payments during the last 10 years of service, multiplied by years of credited service, less the amount of the participant’s benefit from the Retirement Plan. Payments are in the form of a single-life annuity or, at the election of the officer, a joint spousal annuity. Normal retirement age is 65. Benefits may begin earlier, on the later of the NEO’s reaching age 55 or separation from service with the companies, subject to reduction depending on years of credited service, in accordance with the Retirement Plan’s early retirement reduction factors.

Effective January 1, 2013, the SERP was closed to new participants. Individuals who do not participate in the SERP but who are newly hired or promoted to officer after January 1, 2013, may be eligible to participate in the 2013 PG&E Corporation Defined Contribution Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan (DC-ESRP), a non-tax-qualified deferred compensation plan. All NEOs with the exception of Mr. Simon participate in the DC-ESRP. See the table “Non-qualified Deferred Compensation—2024” below and the accompanying narrative for additional DC-ESRP details.

At December 31, 2024, Mr. Simon was eligible for early retirement under the Retirement Plan and the SERP. If Mr. Simon had retired on December 31, 2024, his
