PAR SYSTEMS, LLC’S NOTICE OF PERFECTION 

OF SECTION 546 INTERESTS

TO THE HONORABLE U.S. BANKRUPTCY JUDGE:

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that PaR Systems, LLC (“PaR Systems”) is the general 

contractor under a certain pre-petition Contract (Long Form) No. C9407 (the “Contract”) with 

Debtor, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (“Pacific Gas & Electric”). PaR Systems has 

contracted thereunder to provide the Work (as defined in the Contract) described in the Contract 

and to furnish all labor, equipment and materials necessary to complete the Work. Prior to the 

filing of the Debtors’ bankruptcy case, PaR Systems provided labor, equipment, services and 

supplies to Pacific Gas & Electric under the Contract at Pacific Gas & Electric’s property located 

at:

PG&E Helms Pumped Storage Powerhouse Headquarters (HQ)

67250 Helms Circle

Shaver Lake, CA 93664 (the “Property”). 

The Work under the Contract is a “work of improvement” as is defined under California 

Civ. Code. § 8050(a). Under California Civ. Code § 8412,

A direct contractor may not enforce a lien unless the contractor records a claim of 

lien after the contractor completes the direct contract, and before the earlier of the 

following times:

(a) Ninety days after completion of the work of improvement.

(b) Sixty days after the owner records a notice of completion or cessation.

Likewise, 11 U.S.C. §8460(a) provides that,

(a) The claimant shall commence an action to enforce a lien within 90 days after 

recordation of the claim of lien. If the claimant does not commence an action to 

enforce the lien within that time, the claim of lien expires and is unenforceable

Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 546(b), PaR Systems hereby gives notice in lieu of the 

commencement of any such action to perfect, maintain, or continue PaR Systems’ lien. 

Accordingly, PaR Systems requests adequate protection of its lien.
