In summary, as described in PG&E's opening comments filed on March 5, 2008, PG&E's near term reliefpertaining to the Calpine 2 termination should be granted within the requested time-frame, and the Commission also should initiate efforts to implement PG&E's longer term request to revisit the permanent allocation method. These reply comments also focus on two technical matters, relating to the actual computation for 2008 (See II, below) and implications for the 2010 revenue requirement determination (See III, below). I. ALL PARTIES CONCUR WITH PG&E'S NEAR-TERM ALLOCATION PROPOSAL, AND THE RESULTING ADJUTMENTS SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED BY THE COMMISSION, OR REFLECTED IN A PROPOSED ALLOCATION DECISION, BY APRIL 10,2008 All commentitig parties support, or otherwise concur with, PG&E's request that DWR's supplemental revenue requirements determination for 2008 be allocated consistent with the short-term reliefrequested in PG&E's petition for modification ofDecision 05-06-060, filed on January 18, 2008, in Application 00-11-038 et af (i.e., that PG&E be allocated the entire net fixed cost reductions attributable to the termination and replacement ofthe Calpine 2 contract with the substitute "peaking contract"). See Comments ofSCE, p. 2; ofSDG&E, p. 2; and of CLECA; p. 2. Accordingly, the Commission should implement this recommendation, and the resulting adjustments, when allocating tlie 2008 DWR supplemental revenue requirements. As to timing, PG&E repeats its recommendation (described in its opening comment at pp. 2"3) that, in order to reflect these adjustments in PG&E's May 1 rate changes, either 1) the Commission shorten the comment period on a proposed supplemental 2008 DWR allocation decis.ion to allow a fmal decision by April 10, 2008 or 2) the ALJ issue a proposed allocation decision no later than April 10, 2008 which PG&E could then use a basis for implementing the DWR revenue requirement. Ifthe latter alternative is followed, PG&E notes that any change in revenue requirements from the proposedallocation decision could notbe implemented in time to be reflected in PG&E's May 1 rate adjustments. II. PG&E'S ALLOCATED DWR REVENUE REQUIREMENTS FOR 2008 SHOULD BE REDUCED BY $475 MILLION ON ACCOUNT OF THE CALPINE 2 TERMINATION AND REPLACEMENT There is a small discrepancy between the amount ofthe reduction attributable to the Calpine 2 termination and replacement, as estimated by SCE for 2008 ($467 million) and the amount ofthe reduction which should be allocated to PG&E ($475 million). This discrepancy is not caused by a misunderstanding regarding the mechanism for reflecting the Calpine 2 tettnination and contract replacement, but by independent adjustments not related to Calpine 2, including adjustments attributable to the so-called Coral contract. Specifically, in DWR's supplemental determination for 2008, DWR made an additional adjustment, correcting an error attributable to their estimate ofnon-avoidable costs under that contract. The increase in non- avoidable costs ($10 million) attributable to DWR's correction ofCoral non-avoidable costs (as well as any smaller changes in fixed costs not related to Calpine 2, as well as reserve adjustments), must be spread to all utilities, consistent with the permanent allocation method and past practices. Excluding Coral and other changes, the reduction to PG&E from the DWR -2- supplemental determination should be $475 million, consisting ofa $479 million decrease due the termination ofthe Calpine 2 contract, and a $4 million increase due to its replacement by the peaker contract. III. THE REDUCTION IN DWR COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE CALPINE TERMINATION WILL EXTEND INTO THE 2010 REVENUE REQillREMENT DETERMINATION Although there is no present controversy, PG&E wishes to note for the record that DWR costs will be reduced, on account ofthe Calpine 2 termination, through January ofthe 2010 revenue requirement determination. Thus, PG&E will be entitled to be allocated one"month's benefit ofthe Calpine 2 contract reductions, in the allocation ofthe 2010 DWR revenue requirement. This adjustment to 2010 allocations is necessary because DWR reflects its contract costs in the revenue requirement determination, one month after the costs are actually incurred. Because ofthis lag, DWR's Calpine 2 costs that were incurred in December, 2007, before the effective termination date ofJanuary 1, 2008, were included in DWR's 2008 supplemental determination (i.e., Calpine 2 costs for December, 2007 were included, as a January, 2008, DWR cost and PG&E was allocated only eleven months ofcost reductions).l Consequently, for the 2010 revenue requirement qetermination, PG&E will be entitled to one month ofreduced costs to reflect costs that would have been incurred under the Calpine 2 contract in December, 2009, and reflected in the 2010 DWR revenue requirement determination. In this way, PG&E will receive the entire allocation, through the DWR allocation process, oftwo year's worth of reduced Calpine 2 contract costs (11/12 for 2008 plus 12/12 for 2009 plus 1/12 for 2010). 1 Specifically, the Supplemental DWR Revenue Requirement Detennination for 2008 still includes (in the month ofJanuary, 2008) $44 million ofCalpine 2 costs, or 1/12th ofthe $522 million in Calpine 2 costs that DWR incnrred during 2007. - 3 - IV. PG&E CONTINUES TO SUPPORT REVISITING THE PERMANENT ALLOCATION METHOD For all the reasons previously stated, in addition to the short tenn relief, described above, PG&E supports, over the longer tenn, a revisiting ofthe pennanent allocation method. In particular, PG&E believes the Commission should endorse efforts to detennine metrics and gather data tocompare the relative burdens ofthe respective utilities over time, as a first step towards initiating such a review.

    Real Estate Investors Face Ups And Downs Korpacz Real Estate Investor Survey® Second Quarter 2008 www.pwcreval.com CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED BY BARCLAYS LBEX-BARFID 0011679 Dear Reader: During my conversations with investors this quarter, the slow recovery in the capital sector and the pric­ ing gap between buyers and sellers took center stage. Opinions on the movement of overall cap rates, the fragile state of the U.S. economy, and the comforting notion that industry fundamentals are still quite healthy also made their way into each discussion. In our lead story, "Investors Face Ups and Downs," read about the shifts occurring in the industry as it continues to work through the economic slowdown, the credit disruption, and the price correction. More insight into the movement of overall cap rates can be found in our Overall Cap Rate Analysis sec­ tion, which returns after debuting last quarter. Also returning in this issue is the National Medical Office Buildings Market, which debuted as a special report in the fourth quarter of 2007. Going forward, we will report on this market on a quarterly basis. Read it to find out why an increasing number of investors are targeting this asset class. Other informative articles include our semiannual Domestic Self-Storage Market, Bob White's Real Estate Capital Markets column, and our quarterly Technology News & Trends and Economic News columns.

(No. 16-1364) PLIVA and Teva’s petitions arise out of the same coordinated proceeding pending since 2010 and involving numerous plaintiffs and manufacturers and distributors of name-brand and generic metoclopramide, and now is on the verge of resolution by settlement agreements amongst the parties. As with Teva, the trial court determined twice that PLIVA explicitly consented to personal jurisdiction and waived personal jurisdiction challenges in Real Party’s case based on the lengthy historical record in the case. This Court previously denied certiorari review of these issues in 2016 as to both PLIVA and Teva (No. 15-1209), and the law on consent and waiver has not changed since then. It is not the law in dispute here, but rather the trial court’s determination of the facts.

General Counsel Federal Elections commission - 999 E Street, NW* ~ Washington, D.C. 20463 Re: Complaint for Possible Federal Violations by Friends of Dan--Boatwig=h Committee- Dear Mr. Noble: Please consider this a formal complaint for your consideration under Section 111.4 of Volume 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations. our full names and addresses as complainants are set forth at the end of this letter. We are supporters of Reverend Jesse Jackson's candidacy for president and are involved in his campaign to secure delegates in the California presidential primary, June 7, 1988. Senator Daniel E. Boatwright is a candidate for re-election and renomination in the upcoming primary of the same date. We are concerned that Senator Boatwright's activities designed to create the illusion of a "slate" of himself and the Reverend Jackson in connection with the primary election are violative of federal campaign spending limitations and thereby threaten to tarnish Reverend Jackson's California campaign. Let us state at the forefront that Reverend Jackson's formal campaign organization has disavowed Senator Boatwright's activities and we believe that the Jackson campaign is not in any way responsible for these "slate" activities. (See enclosed article from the Saturday, April 9, 1988 issue of the West Contra Costa Times.) In conformance with 11 CFR 111.4(d), we set forth the following: 1. The respondent appearing to have possibly committed violations of Federal campaign spending regulations is the Friends of Dan Boatwright Committee, Michael A.
