 (1) The preferred stock redemption premium (discussed below) is eliminated at PGC since it is included as 
     a deduction to net income.
     - see PGC/PGE SEC retained earnings statements for each company - the other adjustments are different by $698.

 (2) Preferred stock redemption premium which is included as part of the preferred dividend requirement on the
     income statement and also is included in the preferred stock adjs.
     This adjustment is necessary at PGE for this presentation because the net income used is after all preferred
     stock dividends and adjustments.
