(San Francisco) – PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG) today announced that it plans to voluntarily withdraw its common stock from listing on NYSE Arca, Inc., formerly the Pacific Exchange. The company's common stock will continue to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Earlier this year, the New York Stock Exchange acquired the Pacific Exchange as a result of the NYSE Group’s merger with Archipelago Holdings. The company’s decision to voluntarily withdraw its listing from NYSE Arca, Inc. was made to eliminate duplicative costs and administrative requirements inherent with dual listings. The withdrawal is expected to be effective within the next month.

In addition, PG&E Corporation’s utility unit, Pacific Gas and Electric Company, will voluntarily withdraw the listing of its preferred stock from NYSE Arca, Inc. to also eliminate dual listings. The preferred stock will continue to be listed on the American Stock Exchange.
