| Proposal 1: Election of Directors |

Directors are elected at each annual meeting of our shareholders for terms expiring at the next annual meeting of our shareholders. The Board of Directors has nominated the following individuals to stand for election as directors at the Annual Shareholders Meeting, all of whom are currently directors: Properly executed proxies will be voted “FOR” each of these 11 nominees unless other voting instructions are provided. If any nominee should become unavailable to serve, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the board. In no event may the proxies be voted for more than 11 nominees. The board has determined that, with the exception of Mr. Sagara who is a former executive officer of the company, each non-employee director nominee is an independent director under the NYSE independence standards. Information about director independence is described under “Corporate Governance—Board of Directors—Director Independence.” Sempra has a strong track record of maintaining a varied board composition through its board refreshment process, which has enhanced the diversity of our board across many key characteristics. Of the director nominees named in this proxy statement, 82% are independent directors under NYSE independence standards; 36% have served fewer than five years, with an average tenure of 5.9 years; and 64% are women or people of color. As noted above, Sempra’s board is committed to reflecting a range of characteristics and attributes that contribute to a variety of perspectives in the board’s composition and considers this in its overall refreshment strategy. The following summarizes the independence, tenure and diversity of our directors nominated to stand for election at the Annual Shareholders Meeting:
