Offering of 5.750% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079

On June 13, 2019, Sempra Energy (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as the representatives of the several underwriters named on Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriters $700 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.750% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079 (the “notes”) for resale at a public offering price of $25.00 per note in a registered public offering pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, as amended by post-effective Amendment No. 1 (File No. 333-220257). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional $105 million aggregate principal amount of notes from the Company. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The summary set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities nor will there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

References to Sempra Energy’s debt securities appearing under the caption “Supplemental Risk Factor” below include, without limitation, the notes.

Supplemental Risk Factor

When evaluating Sempra Energy and its business, you should carefully consider the risks and other information described below and the risks and other information contained in “Risk Factors” under Item 1A of Part I and elsewhere in Sempra Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Annual Report”), which was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2019, and in our other filings with the SEC. These risk factors could materially adversely affect our actual results of operations and financial condition and cause such results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. We may also be materially harmed by risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial. Our businesses, cash flows, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects could be materially negatively impacted by these risks. In addition, the trading prices of our debt securities and equity securities and those of our subsidiaries could substantially decline due to the occurrence of any of these risks. These risk factors should be read in conjunction with the other detailed information concerning our company set forth in the Annual Report and Sempra Energy’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on May 7, 2019, including, without limitation, the information set forth in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” As used in this paragraph and the discussion below, references to “Sempra Energy,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Sempra Energy and its subsidiaries unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.

Certain credit rating agencies may downgrade our credit ratings or place those ratings on negative outlook, and some of those actions may occur in the relatively near term.

Credit rating agencies routinely evaluate Sempra Energy and its subsidiaries, San Diego Gas & Electric Company (“SDG&E”) and Southern California Gas Company (“SoCalGas” and together with SDG&E, the “California Utilities”), and their ratings are based on a number of factors, including the increased risk of wildfires in California, perceived supportiveness of the regulatory environment affecting utility operations, including delays and difficulty in obtaining recovery, or the denial of recovery, for wildfire-related costs, ability to generate cash flows, level of indebtedness, overall financial strength, diversification beyond the regulated utility business (in the case of Sempra Energy), and the status of certain capital projects, as well as other factors beyond their control, such as tax reform, the state of the economy and our industry generally. Downgrades and factors causing downgrades of one or both of the California Utilities can have a material impact on Sempra Energy’s credit ratings.

The current Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) (collectively, the “Rating Agencies”) issuer credit ratings for Sempra Energy are Baa1, BBB+ and BBB+, respectively, with Moody’s and S&P having changed Sempra Energy’s outlook from stable to negative on December 20, 2017 and July 9, 2018, respectively. The changes in outlook were primarily the result of, in the case of Moody’s, Sempra Energy’s planned long-term debt issuance to fund a portion of the cost of the Oncor acquisition, delays at the Cameron LNG project and the impact on financial credit metrics, and in the case of S&P, the lack of predictability in the California regulatory environment for electric utilities to consistently recover wildfire-related costs from ratepayers. On September 26, 2018, Moody’s confirmed Sempra Energy’s ratings and negative outlook, reflecting challenges and execution risk that Sempra Energy may face in meeting certain of Moody’s target financial metrics by 2020. On March 18, 2019, S&P affirmed Sempra Energy’s ratings and negative outlook, stating S&P could lower the ratings of Sempra Energy and its subsidiaries within the next six months by one or more notches if it does not see explicit steps being taken by regulators or state officials to address wildfire-related risk applicable to the California electric utilities’ regulatory construct. On April 19, 2019, Fitch affirmed Sempra Energy’s ratings and stable outlook.

The Rating Agencies have also initiated credit ratings actions that have negatively impacted SDG&E’s ratings, with such recent actions primarily the result of the Rating Agencies’ assessments of the increased risk of wildfires in California, the current California regulatory environment, recent wildfires in California and the possible inability to recover costs and expenses in cases where California investor-owned utilities, like SDG&E, are determined to have had their equipment be the cause of a fire.

Moody’s issued a report on June 4, 2019 regarding potential legislative solutions that are being proposed to California Governor Newsom and the California legislature to manage the long-term costs and liabilities associated with utility-caused wildfires. While Moody’s assessed the potential solutions under consideration and generally found that the solutions were credit positive if implemented, it gave some of these potential solutions a low likelihood of implementation, and has not changed its assessment regarding shortcomings in California’s regulatory environment in light of uncertainty surrounding the legislative process. Among other things, Moody’s believes that lawmakers are not actively considering reforming the inverse condemnation doctrine this year and that the likelihood of that occurring this year is remote.

S&P issued a report on June 7, 2019 updating its views regarding credit risks, potential credit ratings ramifications faced by regulated electric utilities in California and potential legislative solutions. S&P noted that unless legislation passes in California that reduces the credit risk to electric utilities in California, they expect to downgrade these companies, to possibly below investment grade ratings, at or around July 12, 2019, which is when the California legislature breaks for summer recess, or sooner if a utility is found to be the cause of a catastrophic wildfire. Further, S&P specified that Sempra Energy’s credit ratings could be downgraded below investment grade if SDG&E is found to be the cause of a catastrophic wildfire and further noted that a downgrade of SDG&E could result in a downgrade to Sempra Energy.

On January 21, 2019, S&P downgraded SDG&E’s long-term issuer credit rating to BBB+ from A- while maintaining its negative outlook. S&P affirmed this rating and maintained its negative outlook on March 18, 2019. On March 5, 2019, Moody’s downgraded SDG&E’s issuer rating to Baa1 from A2 while maintaining its negative outlook. On March 11, 2019, Fitch downgraded SDG&E’s long-term issuer default rating to BBB+ from A-, while maintaining its negative outlook. Fitch affirmed this rating and maintained the negative outlook on April 19, 2019.

S&P affirmed SoCalGas’s issuer credit rating at A with a negative outlook on March 18, 2019, and Fitch also affirmed SoCalGas’s long-term issuer default rating at A with a stable outlook on April 19, 2019. On May 22, 2019, Moody’s affirmed SoCalGas’s long-term rating at A1, but changed its outlook to negative, citing, among other things, deteriorating credit metrics over the past several years as well as heightened regulatory and political uncertainty for all utilities operating in California. Moody’s noted that SoCalGas’s ratings could be downgraded if SoCalGas’s credit metrics do not improve materially after the completion of ongoing regulatory proceedings or if the political or regulatory environment deteriorates or becomes more uncertain for local distribution companies operating in California.

While Sempra Energy’s, SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’s credit ratings are currently investment grade, each of the Rating Agencies reviews its ratings periodically, and there is no assurance that the current credit ratings and ratings outlooks assigned to Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas will not be downgraded. As discussed above, S&P has indicated that, in the absence of a satisfactory legislative solution, they expect that downgrades may occur at or around July 12, 2019 or sooner if a utility is found to be the cause of a catastrophic wildfire.

A downgrade of Sempra Energy’s or either of its California Utilities’ credit ratings or rating outlooks may materially and adversely affect the market prices of Sempra Energy’s equity and debt securities, the interest rates at which their borrowings are made and their debt securities and commercial paper are issued, and the various fees on their credit facilities. This could make it significantly more costly for Sempra Energy, SDG&E, SoCalGas and Sempra Energy’s other subsidiaries to borrow money, to issue debt securities, to enter into new credit facilities and to raise certain other types of capital and/or complete additional financings. Such negative credit rating actions and the reasons for such actions could materially and adversely affect our cash flows, results of operations and financial condition and the market price of, and our ability to pay the principal of and interest on, our debt securities.

The foregoing discussion should be read in conjunction with the discussion appearing under the caption “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Sempra Energy—Certain credit rating agencies may downgrade our credit ratings or place those ratings on negative outlook” in the Annual Report.

risks posed by actions of third parties who control the operations of our investments; weather conditions, natural disasters, accidents, equipment failures, computer system outages, explosions, terrorist attacks and other events that disrupt our operations, damage our facilities and systems, cause the release of harmful materials, cause fires and subject us to third-party liability for property damage or personal injuries, fines and penalties, some of which may not be covered by insurance (including costs in excess of applicable policy limits), may be disputed by insurers or may otherwise not be recoverable through regulatory mechanisms or may impact our ability to obtain satisfactory levels of affordable insurance; cybersecurity threats to the energy grid, storage and pipeline infrastructure, the information and systems used to operate our businesses and the confidentiality of our proprietary information and the personal information of our customers and employees; actions of activist shareholders, which could impact the market price of our securities and disrupt our operations as a result of, among other things, requiring significant time by management and our board of directors;

the impact of federal or state tax reform and our ability to mitigate adverse impacts; changes in foreign and domestic trade policies and laws, including border tariffs and revisions to or replacement of international trade agreements, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement or the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (subject to congressional approval), that may increase our costs or impair our ability to resolve trade disputes; expropriation of assets by foreign governments and title and other property disputes; the impact at San Diego Gas & Electric Company on competitive customer rates and reliability of electric transmission and distribution systems due to the growth in distributed and local power generation and from possible departing retail load resulting from customers transferring to Direct Access and Community Choice Aggregation or other forms of distributed and local power generation and the potential risk of nonrecovery for stranded assets and contractual obligations; the ability of Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Oncor”) to eliminate or reduce its quarterly dividends due to regulatory capital requirements and other regulatory and governance commitments, including the determination by a majority of Oncor’s independent directors or a minority member director to retain such amounts to meet future requirements; and other uncertainties, some of which may be difficult to predict and are beyond our control.

As Representatives of the several Underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Sempra Energy, a California corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement with each of the Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (collectively, the “Underwriters,” which term shall also include any underwriter substituted as hereinafter provided in Section 9 hereof), for whom BofA Securities, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), with respect to the issue and sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.750% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079 (the “Firm Securities”). The Company also proposes to issue and sell to the several Underwriters $105,000,000 aggregate principal amount of additional 5.750% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079 (the “Option Securities”) if and to the extent that you, as Representatives, shall have determined to exercise, on behalf of the Underwriters, the right to purchase such Option Securities granted to the Underwriters pursuant to Section 3 hereof. The Firm Securities and the Option Securities are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Securities.” The Securities are to be issued pursuant to an indenture to be dated as of June 26, 2019 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”). The term “Indenture,” as used herein, includes the Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) to be dated June 26, 2019 establishing the form and terms of the Securities pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-220257), which registration statement became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e) of the rules and regulations of the Commission (the “Rules and Regulations”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Such registration statement covers the registration of the Securities (among other securities) under the Act. Such registration statement, as amended through the date hereof (including by post-effective amendment No. 1 thereto) and including the information deemed pursuant to Rule 430B under the Rules and Regulations to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness with respect to the offering contemplated by this Agreement and all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein through the date hereof, but excluding any Form T-1 (as defined below), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Company proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations the Prospectus Supplement (as defined in Section 5(h) hereof) relating to the Securities and the prospectus dated January 2, 2018 (the “Base Prospectus”), and has previously advised you of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the Company set forth therein. The Base Prospectus together with the Prospectus Supplement, in their respective forms on the date hereof (being the forms in which they are to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations), including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein through the date hereof, are hereinafter referred to as, collectively, the “Prospectus,” except that if any revised prospectus or prospectus supplement shall be provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus (whether or not such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement is required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations), the term “Prospectus” shall refer to such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, from and after the time it is first provided to the Underwriters for such use. The term “Preliminary Prospectus,” as used in this Agreement, means the preliminary prospectus supplement dated June 13, 2019 and filed with the Commission on June 13, 2019 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, together with the Base Prospectus used with such preliminary prospectus supplement in connection with the marketing of the Securities, in each case as amended or supplemented by the Company, including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein through the date thereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included,” “stated,” “described in” or “referred to” in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), after the date of this Agreement which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be.

(c)    The Company (including its agents and representatives, other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) has not prepared, made, used, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, approve or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Rules and Regulations) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities (each such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such (other than a communication referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below) an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) other than (i) any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Act or Rule 134 of the Rules and Regulations, (ii) the Preliminary Prospectus, (iii) the Prospectus, (iv) the documents listed on Schedule II hereto and (v) any electronic road show or other written communications, in each case approved in advance by the Representatives. Each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus complied in all material respects with the Act, has been or will be (within the time period specified in Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations) filed (to the extent required thereby) in accordance with the Act and when taken together with the Preliminary Prospectus, did not, and at the Time of Delivery will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (c) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

The Registration Statement, at the respective times the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto became effective, and the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as of the Representation Date, complied and comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations (including Rule 415(a) of the Rules and Regulations), and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Trust Indenture Act, and the Registration Statement did not and as of the Representation Date and at the Time of Delivery does not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Act against the Company or related to the offering of the Securities have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Prospectus, at the Representation Date (unless the term “Prospectus” refers to a prospectus which has been provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, in which case at the time it is first provided to the Underwriters for such use) and at the Time of Delivery, does not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (d) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or the information contained in any Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of a trustee under the Trust Indenture Act filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (a “Form T-1”).

(e)    The documents filed by the Company and incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Pricing Disclosure Package pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and, when read together and with the other information in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Pricing Disclosure Package, at the respective times the Registration

(f)    The Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, have not sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus any material loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; and, since the date as of which information is given in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there has not been any material change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the general affairs, management or consolidated financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(g)    The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of California, with power and authority (corporate and other) to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, and has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation for the transaction of business and is in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and each of Southern California Gas Company, a California corporation (“SCGC”), San Diego Gas & Electric Company, a California corporation (“SDG&E”), Pacific Enterprises, a California corporation (“PE”), Enova Corporation, a California corporation (“Enova”), Sempra Global, a Delaware corporation (“Global”), Pacific Enterprises International, a California corporation (“PEI”), Sempra Energy International, a California corporation (“SEI”) and Sempra Texas Holdings Corp., a Texas corporation, (“Sempra Texas” and, together with SCGC, SDG&E, PE, Enova, Global, PEI and SEI, the “Significant Subsidiaries”), has been duly incorporated or organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.

from the Company, (i) at a purchase price of 96.850% of the principal amount thereof for Securities sold to retail investors and (ii) at a purchase price of 98.000% of the principal amount thereof for Securities sold to institutional investors, the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter, plus any additional principal amount of Securities which such Underwriter may become obligated to purchase pursuant to the provisions of Section 9 hereof.

8.    (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any other prospectus relating to the Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,

16

claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any other prospectus relating to the Securities or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein.

(b)    Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any other prospectus relating to the Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any other prospectus relating to the Securities, or any such amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the following: the information in the fourth paragraph of text under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus concerning the terms of the offering by the Underwriters; and the information in the eighth, ninth and tenth paragraphs of text (solely with respect to the statements attributable to the Underwriters), under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, insofar as such information relates to stabilization, penalty bids, overallotment, short positions and purchases to cover short positions by the Underwriters; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.

(c)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under such subsection to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in

17

each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the Representatives shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the Underwriters and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Underwriters against the Company under this Section 8, if the Representatives shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Underwriters and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons that are different from or additional to those available to the Company and its officers, directors, employees and controlling persons, and the fees and expenses of a single separate counsel for the Underwriters and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (in addition to local counsel) shall be paid by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement or compromise of, or the consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder effected without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but, if settled or compromised with the indemnifying party’s consent, or if judgment shall be entered following consent to the entry of such judgment given with the indemnifying party’s consent, or if there shall otherwise be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified party against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, by reason of such settlement, compromise or judgment, as the case may be. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d)    If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, from the offering of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then in each case each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement (before deducting expenses)

18

received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Underwriters in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations with respect to the Securities and not joint.

(e)    The obligations of the Company under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director, officer, employee and agent of any Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer, director and employee of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

9.    (a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities which it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement at the Time of Delivery, the Representatives may in their discretion arrange for themselves or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter the Representatives do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed period, the Representatives notify the Company that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, or the Company notifies the Representatives that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments

19

or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in the opinion of the Representatives may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement.

(b)    If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date under this Agreement and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Firm Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase under this Agreement) of the Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c)    If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, as referred to in subsection (b) above, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 6 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 8 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

10.    The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any controlling person of any Underwriter, or the Company or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

11.    If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any Underwriter with respect to the Securities except as provided in Sections 6 and 8 hereof; but, if for any other reason Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters through the Representatives for all out-of-pocket expenses approved in writing by the Representatives, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities, but the Company shall then be under no further liability to any Underwriter with respect to the Securities except as provided in Sections 6 and 8 hereof.

20

12.    In all dealings hereunder, the Representatives of the Underwriters shall act on behalf of each of such Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by such Representatives jointly or by such of the Representatives, if any, as may be designated for such purpose in this Agreement.

All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by mail, overnight courier or facsimile transmission to BofA Securities, Inc., 50 Rockefeller Plaza, NY1-050-12-01, New York, New York 10020, Facsimile: (646) 855-5958, Attention: High Grade Transaction Management/Legal; Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036, Attention: Investment Banking Division, Facsimile: (212) 507-8999; and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, 550 South Tryon Street, 5th Floor, Charlotte, North Carolina, 28202, Attention: Transaction Management, Facsimile: (704) 410-0326; and if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail or overnight courier to Sempra Energy, 488 8^th Avenue, San Diego, California 92101, Attention: Secretary, with a copy to the General Counsel; provided, however, that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 8(c) hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail, overnight courier or facsimile transmission to such Underwriter at its address set forth in its Underwriters’ Questionnaire, or email or facsimile transmission constituting such Questionnaire, which address will be supplied to the Company by the Representatives upon request. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof.

In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

13.    This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 8 and 10 hereof, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter, the officers, directors and employees of the Company and each person who controls the Company or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

14.    The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of the Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto. Additionally, neither the Representatives nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the

21

transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

15.    (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)    In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For the purposes of this Section 15, a “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

16.    Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, “business day” shall mean, unless otherwise expressly stated, any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

17.    This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

18.    This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
