I, Cecily A. Dumas, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, declare the following under penalty of perjury:

1. I am a Partner at Baker & Hostetler LLP (“Baker & Hostetler”), which has an office 

at 160 Battery Street, San Francisco, California 94111 and is an independent, privately-held, legal 

firm. I am authorized to make this declaration (this “Declaration”) on behalf of Baker & Hostetler. 

Unless otherwise stated in this Declaration, I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein.

2. Baker & Hostetler was engaged as counsel to the Official Committee of Tort 

Claimants (the “TCC”) effective as of February 2019. I lead a team of Baker & Hostetler 

professionals on this engagement. I submit this Declaration in support of the Ex Parte Motion of 

the Official Committee of Tort Claimants and Ad Hoc Committee of Senior Unsecured Noteholders 

Pursuant to B.L.R. 9006-1 Requesting Order Shortening Time for Hearing on Joint Motion to 

Terminate the Debtors’ Exclusive Periods Pursuant to Section 1121(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code 

(the “Motion”).1

3. Except where specifically noted, all statements in this Declaration are based upon 

(a) my personal knowledge developed during the course of my engagement with the TCC, (b) my 

discussions with advisors of other parties in interest in these chapter 11 cases and other members 

of my team at Baker & Hostetler and (c) my review of relevant documents and/or my professional 

opinion based upon my experience. If called to testify, I could and would testify to each of the 

facts set forth herein based on such personal knowledge, discussions, review of documents and/or 

professional opinion. 

4. On September 19, 2019, I conferred with Stephen Karotkin (“Mr. Karotkin”), 

counsel for Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the “Utility”) and PG&E Corporation (“PG&E” 

and, together with the Utility, the “Debtors”), regarding whether the Debtors would consent to 

notice being shortened on the Joint Motion of the Official Committee of Tort Claimants and Ad Hoc 

Committee of Senior Unsecured Noteholders to Terminate the Debtors’ Exclusive Periods Pursuant 

to Section 1121(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code [Docket No. 3940]. Mr. Karotkin informed me that 

the Debtors would not consent to any hearing being scheduled on shortened time with respect to 

the Motion. 

 1 Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Motion.
