About Elliott and Bluescape

ELLIOTT

Investment firm founded in 1977 with over $35B of assets under management

Multi-strategy firm active in debt, equities, commodities, currencies and various other asset classes across a range of industries

Strong track record investing in the power, utility and broader energy sector and working with companies to create long-term fundamental stakeholder value

Private investment firm founded in 2007 focused on value-oriented investments in the upstream oil and gas, power and utility industries

John Wilder, Founder and Executive Chairman of Bluescape, served as CEO and Chairman of TXU Corp. from 2004-07, achieving an annual TSR of 65% and ranking as the fifth best performing company in the S&P 500 during that period

Elliott and Bluescape have conducted exhaustive research on Sempra, including working with a team of industry-leading advisers and experts, to evaluate and develop our recommendations

Elliott and Bluescape’s world-class team of advisers includes:

Six Highly Qualified Board Candidates with deep industry, regulatory, executive, and leadership experience and strong local ties

Leading Regulatory Counsel to understand each jurisdiction in which Sempra operates; we retained four specialized local law firms (California, Texas, FERC, and Mexico) to study the regulatory implications of our proposal’s various potential results

Leading Corporate Counsel to review Sempra’s corporate governance and legal structure

Leading Financial Adviser to independently verify the viability and value creation potential of the proposed strategic plan

Big 4 Accounting Firm & Tax Counsel to vet structures and understand the tax consequences of contemplated spin-offs and divestitures

Independent Compensation Consultant to unpack Sempra management’s incentive structure and benchmark against industry peers

We are pleased to share our suggestions for creating a better Sempra for all key stakeholders

Why Are We Here?

Sempra has Continually Underperformed: Despite owning a collection of highly attractive businesses, Sempra’s share price has meaningfully underperformed and persistently trades at a steep discount to both peers and achievable value

Sempra’s Conglomerate Strategy has Failed: A litany of operational and financial setbacks demonstrate drift into a low-performance organization with a detached management structure and Board as the company has become larger, more complex, and more disparate

Inadequate Oversight: Executive compensation, board oversight, corporate structure and behavior are not rooted in appropriate performance and accountability measures and are not in the best interests of key stakeholders

Elliott and Bluescape collectively own a 4.9% economic interest in Sempra valued at more than $1.3 billion1

We believe Sempra can achieve $11-16 billion of value creation from an appropriately conducted business review

Sustainable Value Creation: Two-pronged approach:

Reset Oversight: Refresh the Board with new truly objective, highly qualified directors

Strategic Review: New Board committee to complete a sober, dispassionate, full portfolio and operational review

Sempra’s Potential: Elliott and Bluescape have crafted a readily achievable plan that demonstrates the potential value creation at Sempra from unlocking its significant conglomerate discount, highlighting the value of its LNG development pipeline, and improving US utility operations

Key Stakeholder Benefits: Change in strategy expected to yield significantly better tangible outcomes for customers, employees, regulators and shareholders

Sempra’s Performance Sempra’s Opportunity

Sempra’s portfolio approach is suboptimal for its stakeholders. Each business has a different cost of capital and a different risk-return profile

To create a more sustainable company, Sempra must reset oversight, streamline its portfolio, and improve core operations

How Did Sempra Get SO BIG?

This is NOT working for any of Sempra’s Key Stakeholders

Sempra’s growth strategy relies on siphoning earnings and creditworthiness from its core California utilities and deploying that capital into various unrelated businesses with poor returns and results

Rationale for Current Strategy Doesn’t Hold Together

This is Sempra’s rationale for its strategy from the 2017 Analyst Day

Owning a collection of three distinct, unconnected assets in the Texas regiondoes not constitute a “Gulf Coast strategy”

Sempra has not demonstrated any tangible or quantifiable benefits across its businesses for any of its key stakeholders

Purported Operational Synergies Lack Credibility

Alleged “Synergy” Management Commentary Elliott / Bluescape Perspective

“Risk Profile”

“With all of our businesses, we are fully committed to our strategy of maintaining high-growth, but utility-like risk profile.”

Executive Chairman Debra Reed, April 5, 2017

Sempra’s businesses have different risk profiles, different growth opportunities, different customers, different regulators, different natural owners anddifferent valuation parameters

This is the underpinning of what’s wrong with Sempra’s current structure and the root cause of underperformance

“Geographic”

“We expect the addition of Oncor, coupled with our existing presence in the natural gas market, to position us well to be a leading player in the Gulf Coast.”

Executive Chairman Debra Reed, October 30, 2017

There is virtually no integration or physical interconnectedness between Sempra’s businesses

Geographic proximity is not a synergy in and of itself

“ProjectConstruction”

“We build transmission at SDG&E. We build transmission in Chile.”

President & COO Joe Householder, April 5, 2017

Expertise in constructing and maintaining renewables and transmission assets is not unique or proprietary

“Safety & Reliability”

“Like our California utilities and our South American utilities, operational excellence is paramount to our focus: safety, reliability and customer service.”

Former Executive VP Steven Davis, April 5, 2017

Safety, reliability and customer service should be the highest priority for any energy / utility business, but it does not justify being a conglomerate

Sempra’s track record does not inspire confidence that the company has high-performance operations

Disparate Businesses Result in Operational Issues

Incident What Happened Key Lessons

Cameron LNG Construction Delays

Cameron LNG commercial operation dates have been delayed numerous times for over 12 months cumulatively due to construction-related issues

Management was ambiguous around timing of plant commissioning and further timing slippages

By comparison, several of Cheniere’s LNG facilities have been completed months ahead of schedule

Large unregulated construction projects require proactive management

In 2016, Sempra management was not aware of any delay until notified by the contractor and was ill-equipped to respond

Aliso Canyon Gas Leak

October 2015 natural gas leak at the SoCalGas Aliso Canyon facility was the worst natural gas leak in US history in terms of environmental impact

Gas leak released over 100,000 metric tons of methane into the atmosphere, with a carbon footprint worse than the Deepwater Horizon oil spill1

Safety and reliability must be the number one priority for any utility management team

Gas leak is an example of “eye off the ball” mismanagement of core operations

Rockies Express Pipeline Impairment

Cumulative impairments on the Rockies Express pipeline cost shareholders approximately $600 million2

Project was plagued at the outset, with construction cost ballooning from $4.4B to $6.8B, an over 50% increase

Subsequent changes to re-contracting prospects led Sempra to write down and ultimately dispose of its 25% interest

Despite the long-term contracted nature of assets, midstream infrastructure investment requires specialized experience and foresight

Argentina Impairment

Sempra lost virtually its entire investment in two Argentine regulated utilities, costing shareholders over $200 million

Businesses in foreign jurisdictions have completely different risk profiles compared to regulated US utilities

Sempra’s structure has resulted in serious execution missteps, which creates meaningful risks for all key stakeholders and results in lack of confidence in leadership

Sempra’s consensus earnings estimates have consistently seen significant downward revisions, perpetuating share price underperformance and low valuation

2016–2019 Street Consensus EPS Estimate Trend

“Looking for gradual negative revisions to 2018-20 outlook, but disproportionate rebase of '18 keeps LT EPS CAGR intact to '21.”

Bank of America, May 8, 2018

“We see a potential re-set of growth expectations ahead…Should the company rely more on future LNG project or other riskier international or other non-utility sources of growth in the future, we see potential for additional multiple compression as well.”

JP Morgan, June 4, 2018

“The bear case on SRE continues to be skepticism regarding their ability to achieve their L-T EPS growth aspirations, pointing to SRE’s historic underperformance vs. their growth aspirations.”

Evercore ISI, May 9, 2018

Source: Bloomberg as of 6/7/18.

“Our updated 2019 estimates come in below consensus, and we expect 2019 guidance at SRE’s analyst day (June 28th) to disappoint.”

Sempra’s Board Structure is Problematic

Director 11 48 1 No

Director 12 62 1 No

The power structure of the current Board is skewed heavily towards the longest tenured directors

In particular, the compensation committee has failed to properly construct management’s incentive scheme

The Board today lacks key industry and capital allocation know-how and credibility

Longest tenured directors dominate key positions, notably the Nominating & Governance and Compensation Committees

Sempra’s Lead Director has 17 years of tenure and the Chairman of the Nominating & Governance Committee has 24 years of tenure

Only three of Sempra’s 12 independent directors have utility industry experience

Four of Sempra’s 12 independent directors have no beneficial ownership in Company stock at all (0 common shares or options)

In aggregate, Sempra’s independent directors own a total of 52,200 shares, or 0.02% of the current shares outstanding

Only one of Sempra’s independent directors has ever purchased shares on the open market (and on only one occasion)

Since 2010, Sempra’s independent directors have sold nearly $20 million of stock on the open market

Sempra’s Board would greatly benefit from new fresh perspectives and real industry experience

* Tenure for Debra Reed and Jeff Martin refers to tenure at Sempra, not the Board. Ms. Reed has been a director since April 2010 and Mr. Martin joined the board in May 2018.

The Problems with Sempra’s Annual Incentive Structure

Governance Concerns Made Tangible in Incentive Structure

Sempra’s incentive structure encourages GET BIG strategy and rewards mediocrity

Management’s bonus is 85% based on absolute earnings dollars (not EPS)

2013 2014 2015 2016 2017

Previous Year Actual Target Actual

The Board sets very low goals for management’s bonus. In fact, in 3 of the last 5 years, the set goal was lower than the previous year’s actual result

-10%

3%

-4% 0%1%

Management’s annual pension contribution is based on salary and 3-year average highest bonus during the prior 10 years, thus shareholders pay double for low goals

Executive Chairman Debra Reed, September 14, 2017

Analyst: “You got high quality businesses in each thing that you do…but they are kind of disparate businesses. You could arguably say that they could be put together in different standalone businesses and the like.”
