3.1    Elections to Defer Compensation

(a)    General Rule. Each Eligible Individual may defer Compensation for a Plan Year by filing with the Committee or the Administrator a Deferral Election Form for such Plan Year that conforms to the requirements of this Section 3.1, no later than the last day of the applicable Election Period for such Plan Year, and such deferral election shall become irrevocable on the last day of the applicable Election Period for such Plan Year (or such later date permitted by the Committee or the Administrator consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code). Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, an Eligible Individual who first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan during a Plan Year may elect to defer Compensation for such Plan Year; provided, however, that any such election to defer Compensation for such Plan Year must be filed during the Election Period prior to the effective date of such election, shall be irrevocable when made, and shall be effective only for Compensation that constitutes compensation for services performed during periods during the Plan Year beginning after the effective date of such election. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, if an Eligible Individual’s Bonus (or portion thereof) is a performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Committee or the Administrator may permit such Eligible Individual to file an election to defer such Bonus (or such portion thereof), or change such Eligible Individual’s prior election to defer such Bonus (or such portion thereof), no later than the date that is six (6) months before the end of the performance period over which such services are to be performed, under the terms and conditions that may be specified by the Committee or the Administrator, in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, and such deferral election shall become irrevocable on the date that is six (6) months before the end of the performance period.

(b)    Special Rules. Notwithstanding the above, the following restrictions apply to deferrals of certain elements of Compensation:

(1)    Restricted Stock Units. Each Eligible Individual designated by the Committee as eligible to defer Restricted Stock Units, may elect to defer Restricted Stock Units (or a portion thereof), in accordance with such rules as the Committee may establish, which such rules shall not be inconsistent with the deferral election rules set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 or the distribution provisions of Section 7.1. In order to defer Restricted Stock Units (or a portion thereof), an eligible Participant must file the appropriate Deferral Election Form no later than the election date required under Section 409A of the Code. The Participant’s election to defer Restricted Stock Units (or a portion thereof) shall apply only if the Restricted Stock Units (or portion thereof) constitute a legally binding right to a payment of compensation in a subsequent taxable year and, absent a deferral election, would be treated as a short-term deferral, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any deferral election that does not satisfy the requirements for an initial deferral election under Section 409A of the Code shall be irrevocable when made and shall be made in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, applied as if the amount were a deferral of compensation and the scheduled payment date for the amount were the date the substantial risk of forfeiture lapses. Such subsequent deferral election shall be irrevocable when made, shall be made at least twelve (12) months prior to the first date on which Restricted Stock Units are scheduled to be paid (or, in the case of installment payments, twelve (12) months prior to the date on which the first amount is to be

paid), and shall not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made. Such deferral election shall provide that the amount deferred shall be deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date the payment of the amount deferred would otherwise have been made (or, in the case of installment payments treated as a single payment as determined under Section 409A of the Code, five (5) years from the date the first amount was scheduled to be paid); provided, however, that such deferral election may provide that the deferred amounts will be payable upon a change in control event (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) without regard to the five (5) year additional deferral requirement. Deferrals of Restricted Stock Units shall be invested in the Sempra Stock Fund and may not be moved to any other Measurement Fund. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, a Participant may not elect a Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to the deferral of any Restricted Stock Units.

(2)    SERP Lump Sum. A Participant may elect to defer a SERP Lump Sum (or a portion thereof), to the extent permitted by the Committee. In order to defer a SERP Lump Sum (or a portion thereof), an eligible Participant must file the appropriate Deferral Election Form no later than the election date required under Section 409A of the Code. The Participant’s election to defer a SERP Lump Sum (or a portion thereof) that does not satisfy the requirements for an initial deferral election under Section 409A of the Code shall satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code as a subsequent deferral. Such deferral election shall be irrevocable when made, and shall not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made. Such deferral election shall provide that the amount deferred shall be deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date the payment of the amount deferred would otherwise have been made (or, in the case of installment payments treated as a single payment, five (5) years from the date the first amount was scheduled to be paid) in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.

(3)    Elective Phantom Share Amounts. A Participant who is a Director and is entitled to receive an initial or annual equity award from Sempra, in the form of an award of Restricted Stock Units or an amount credited to his Deferral Account, may elect to have the Elective Phantom Share Amount with respect to such award credited to his Deferral Account (in lieu of such award of Restricted Stock Units) and defer such Elective Phantom Share Amount. In order to elect such credit and deferral of the Elective Phantom Share Amount with respect to such an equity award, an eligible Participant must file the appropriate Deferral Election Form no later than the last day of the applicable Election Period for the Plan Year during which such equity award is granted, and such deferral election shall become irrevocable on the last day of the applicable Election Period for such Plan Year. A Director who first becomes a Participant during a Plan Year may make a deferral election during such Plan Year in accordance with subparagraph 1.2(t)(2)(A). Such an election to defer an Elective Phantom Share Amount with respect to an equity award granted during a Plan Year must be filed during the Election Period prior to the effective date of such election and shall be irrevocable when made and shall be effective only for an Elective Phantom Share Amount that constitutes compensation for services performed after the effective date of such election. If a Participant fails to elect such credit and deferral of the Elective Phantom Share Amount with respect to such an equity award, the Participant’s equity award shall not be deferred and shall be made in the form of an award of Restricted Stock Units. A Participant shall make a separate election to defer Elective Phantom Share Amounts for each Plan Year.

(c)    Deferral Amounts. The amount of Base Salary or Bonus that a Participant may elect to defer for a Plan Year is such Base Salary or Bonus earned on or after the time at which the Participant elects to defer for such Plan Year in accordance with subsection 3.1(a), and that is earned during the Plan Year to which the deferral election relates (other than with respect to subsequent deferrals of previously deferred amounts or other amounts that are treated as subsequent deferrals for purposes of Section 409A of the Code). In no event shall a Participant be permitted to defer any amount of Compensation earned prior to the date of the deferral election or attributable to services performed prior to the date of the

deferral election (other than with respect to subsequent deferrals of previously deferred amounts or other amounts that are treated as subsequent deferrals for purposes of Section 409A of the Code or as permitted under the Plan relating to performance-based compensation).

(1)    Each Participant who is a Manager shall be permitted to defer, in any whole percentage: (A) from 6% to 85% of Base Salary, (B) from 6% to 85% of his Bonus, and (C) if permitted by the Committee, between 10% and 100% of such Participant’s Restricted Stock Units, subject to subsection 3.1(b).

(2)    Each Participant who is an Executive Officer shall be permitted to defer, in any whole percentage: (A) from 6% to 85% of Base Salary, (B) from 6% to 85% of his Bonus and (c) from 10% to 100% of such Participant’s Restricted Stock Units and SERP Lump Sum, subject to subsection 3.1(b).

(3)    Each Participant who is a Director: (A) shall be permitted to defer, in any whole percentage, from 10% to 100% of his Compensation (other than Elective Phantom Share Amounts and Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts), and (B) shall be permitted to defer 100% of his Elective Phantom Share Amounts. In the case of a Participant who is a Director, 100% of such Participant’s Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts shall be deferred under subsection 3.1(f).

Notwithstanding the limitations established above, the total amount deferred by a Participant shall be limited in any calendar year, if necessary, to satisfy the Participant’s income and employment tax withholding obligations (including Social Security, unemployment and Medicare), and the Participant’s employee benefit plan contribution requirements, determined on the first day of the Election Period for such Plan Year, in any case as determined by the Committee or the Administrator, as applicable.

(d)    Duration of Deferral Election.

(1)    A Participant shall not modify or suspend his election to defer Compensation during a Plan Year.

(2)    A Participant must file a new deferral election for each subsequent Plan Year. In the event a Participant fails to file a timely deferral election for the next Plan Year, he shall be deemed to have elected not to defer any Compensation for such Plan Year.

(3)    A Participant’s election to defer all or any portion of his SERP Lump Sum shall automatically become void in the event the Participant dies or becomes disabled while employed by the Company.

(4)    A Participant who is a Director must file a new deferral election for the Elective Phantom Share Amounts for the equity awards granted during each Plan Year. In the event a Participant fails to file a timely deferral election for the next Plan Year, he shall be deemed to have elected not to defer the Elective Phantom Share Amounts for the equity awards granted during such Plan Year.

(e)    Elections. Any Eligible Individual who does not elect to defer Compensation during his Election Period for a Plan Year may subsequently participate in the Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

(f)    Nonelective Compensation Deferrals for Directors. The Board may determine from time to time whether deferrals of Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts shall be credited to the Deferral Accounts of one or more Participants who are Directors. The Board shall designate the Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts and any conditions under which a Director shall be entitled to have Nonelective

Phantom Share Amounts credited to his Deferral Account. A Nonelective Phantom Share Amount credited to a Director’s Deferral Account shall constitute compensation for services to be performed by the Director during a calendar quarter, and the Nonelective Phantom Share Amount for such calendar quarter shall be credited to the Director’s Deferral Account on the first New York Stock Exchange trading day of such calendar quarter; provided, however, that, in the case of a Director who first becomes a Director by reason of appointment or election as a Director, for purposes of the calendar quarter during which such appointment or election occurs, such Director’s Deferral Account shall be credited with a prorated portion of the Nonelective Phantom Share Amount for the portion of such calendar quarter (if any), commencing on the tenth New York Stock Exchange trading day after such Director’s appointment or election and ending on the last day of the calendar quarter, and any such prorated portion of the Nonelective Phantom Share Amount shall constitute compensation for services to be performed by the Director during the period commencing on such tenth New York Stock Exchange trading day and ending on the last day of such calendar quarter and shall be determined based on the portion of such calendar quarter that comprises such period and such prorated portion of the Nonelective Phantom Share Amount shall be credited to the Director’s Deferral Account on the New York Stock Exchange trading day next following the last day of such calendar quarter. The service period for a Nonelective Phantom Share Amount (or a prorated Nonelective Phantom Share Amount) shall be the calendar quarter, or portion thereof, during which the Director performs services for which such Nonelective Phantom Share Amount (or prorated Phantom Share Amount) constitutes compensation. Such Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts shall be deferred on a nonelective basis. An eligible Participant must file the appropriate Deferral Election Form with respect to the Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts that constitute compensation for services performed during periods during the Plan Year beginning after the effective date of such election, for purposes of electing the Payment Date and the form of distribution of such Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts, no later than the last day of the applicable Election Period for the Plan Year during which such Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts are credited, and such deferral election shall become irrevocable on the last day of the applicable Election Period for such Plan Year. The Committee or the Administrator shall permit such a Participant who first becomes a Participant during a Plan Year to have his first Election Period with respect to such election of the Payment Date and the form of distribution during such Plan Year determined in accordance with subparagraph 1.2(t)(2)(B). Such an election as to the Payment Date and the form of distribution must be filed during the Election Period prior to the effective date of such election and shall be irrevocable when made and shall be effective only for a Nonelective Phantom Share Amount that constitutes compensation for services performed after the date of such election.

(g)    Termination of Participation and/or Deferrals. If the Committee or the Administrator determines in good faith that a Participant no longer qualifies as a Director or a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as membership in such group is determined in accordance with Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, the Committee or the Administrator shall have the right, in its sole discretion and only for purposes of preserving the Plan’s exemption from Title I of ERISA, to prevent the Participant from making deferral elections for future Plan Years.

3.2    Distribution Elections.

(a)    General Rule. Each Participant shall make a separate distribution election with respect to each Plan Year for which such Participant elects to defer Compensation in accordance with Section 3.1. In the case of each Participant who is a Director, such Participant shall make a separate distribution election with respect to each Plan Year without regard to whether such Participant elects to defer Compensation in accordance with Section 3.1. A Participant’s distribution election with respect to a Plan Year shall apply to: (1) the Subaccount in his Deferral Account to which shall be credited the amount equal to the portion of his Compensation earned during such Plan Year that he elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.1, (2) in the case of a Participant who is a Director, the Subaccount in his Deferred Account to which shall be credited any Elective Phantom Share Amounts for equity awards granted during such Plan Year that he elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.1, and the Subaccount in his Deferral Account to which shall be credited any Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts during such Plan Year pursuant to subsection 3.1(f), and (3) the Subaccount in his Employer Matching Account to which shall be credited the amount equal to the Employer Matching Contribution for such Plan Year. A Participant may elect any Payment Date described in subsection 1.2(ii), and may elect distribution in the normal form, as described in paragraph 7.1(a)(1), or an optional form described in paragraph 7.1(a)(2). Such Payment Date and distribution form elections shall be made on such Participant’s Deferral Election Form during the Election Period for which such Participant elects to defer Compensation under Section 3.1 for such Plan Year, and such Payment Date and distribution form elections with respect to such Plan Year shall be irrevocable, except as provided in subsection 3.2(b). In the event a Participant fails to elect a Payment Date for his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year, his Payment Date for his Distributable Amount with respect to such Plan Year shall be the date described in paragraph 1.2(ii)(1). In the event a Participant fails to make a distribution form election for his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year, his Distributable Amount with respect to such Plan Year shall be distributed in the normal form, as described in paragraph 7.1(a)(1) in the event of his Separation from Service or Disability, except as provided in subsection 3.2(b). Except as provided in subsection 3.2(b), a Participant’s distribution for his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year shall be made or commence on such Participant’s Payment Date.

(b)    Changes to Distribution Form Election. Subject to subsection 3.2(e), a Participant may change his distribution form election for his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year in accordance with this subsection 3.2(b) as follows:

(1)    Change from Lump Sum. If such Participant elected to receive the distribution of his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year in the event of his Separation from Service or Disability in a lump sum, such Participant may change such distribution form election by making a new distribution form election for his Distributable Amount with respect to such Plan Year providing for distribution in one of the following forms, with such distribution made or commencing on the fifth anniversary of his Payment Date:

    (A)    a lump sum,

    (B)    annual installments (calculated as set forth in paragraph 7.1(a)(6)) over five (5) years,

    (C)    annual installments (calculated as set forth in paragraph 7.1(a)(6) over ten (10) years, or

    (D)    annual installments (calculated as set forth in paragraph 7.1(a)(6)) over fifteen (15) years.

(2)    Change from Installments. If such Participant elected to receive the distribution of his Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year in the event of his Separation from Service or Disability in annual installments over five (5), ten (10) or fifteen (15) years, such Participant may change such distribution form election by making a new distribution form election for his Distributable Amount with respect to such Plan Year providing for distribution in one of the following forms, with such distribution commencing on the fifth anniversary of his Payment Date:

    (i)    annual installments (calculated as set forth at paragraph 7.1(a)(6)) over the period of years specified in such Participant’s initial distribution form election, or

    (ii)    annual installments (calculated as set forth at paragraph 7.1(a)(6)) over a period of either ten (10) years or fifteen (15) years, provided that such period exceeds the period of years specified in such Participant’s initial distribution form election.

(3)    A Participant may make only one change to his distribution form election with respect to a Plan Year under this subsection 3.2(b).

(c)    Election of Scheduled Withdrawal Date. A Participant may elect a Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to his deferrals of Compensation (the “Withdrawal Amount”) with respect to a Plan Year. Such election of a Scheduled Withdrawal Date for such Participant’s Withdrawal Amount with respect to a Plan Year shall be made by such Participant during the Election Period for which such Participant elects to defer Compensation under Section 3.1 for such Plan Year, and such election of a Scheduled Withdrawal Date shall be irrevocable, except as provided in subsection 3.2(d). A Participant may make separate Scheduled Withdrawal Date elections for his deferrals of Compensation with respect to different Plan Years. A Participant’s Withdrawal Amount with respect to a Plan Year shall be credited to Subaccounts under such Participant’s Accounts for such Plan Year. A Participant shall not be required to elect a Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to his deferrals of Compensation for a Plan Year and, if a Participant fails to make an election of a Scheduled Withdrawal Date for a Plan Year, no Scheduled Withdrawal Date shall apply with respect to his deferrals of Compensation for such Plan Year. For purposes of the Plan, the deferrals of Compensation included as part of the Withdrawal Amount (i) shall be adjusted for investment earnings and losses in the case of elections made on or after November 10, 2016 and (ii) shall be adjusted for investment losses (but not investment earnings) in the case of elections made prior to November 10, 2016.

(d)    Change of Scheduled Withdrawal Date. Subject to subsection 3.2(e), if a Participant elected a Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to his deferrals of Compensation with respect to a Plan Year in accordance with subsection 3.2(c), such Participant may change such Scheduled Withdrawal Date for the Withdrawal Amount with respect to such Plan Year by electing a new Scheduled Withdrawal Date for the Withdrawal Amount with respect to such Plan Year that is not less than five (5) years later than the Scheduled Withdrawal Date previously elected by such Participant for such Plan Year. A Participant who has not elected a Scheduled Withdrawal Date for his deferrals of Compensation in accordance with

subsection 3.2(c) for a Plan Year may not subsequently elect a Scheduled Withdrawal Date for his deferrals of Compensation for such Plan Year. A Participant may make only one change to the Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to each Plan Year under this subsection 3.2(d).

(e)    Limitation on Distribution Changes. A Participant’s election to change his distribution form election with respect to a Plan Year under subsection 3.2(b), or change of a Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to a Plan Year under subsection 3.2(d), shall be subject to the following limitations:

    (1)    The Participant’s election to change his distribution election form with respect to a Plan Year, or change his Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to a Plan Year, shall not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after his election to change the distribution form election, or Scheduled Withdrawal Date, is made. If the distribution of such Participant’s Distributable Amount with respect to a Plan Year (in the case of a change in his distribution election form), or the distribution of the Withdrawal Amount with respect to such Plan Year (in the case of a change in his Scheduled Withdrawal Date), is made or commence before the election to change his distribution form election or Scheduled Withdrawal Date, as the case may be, becomes effective, the election to change his distribution form election or Scheduled Withdrawal Date shall not thereafter become effective, and distributions shall be made in accordance with the distribution form election, and Scheduled Withdrawal Date (if any), as applicable, in effect prior to the Participant’s election to change.

    (2)    The Participant’s election to change his distribution election form with respect to a Plan Year, or change his Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to a Plan Year, shall provide that each payment with respect to such new distribution form election, or new Scheduled Withdrawal Date, shall be deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made.

    (3)    The Participant’s election to change his Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to a Plan Year shall not be made less than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment under the Participant’s initial election of the Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to such Plan Year.

The limitations under this subsection 3.2(e) shall be applied in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.

3.3    Employer Matching Contributions.

(a)    The Company shall make an Employer Matching Contribution for each payroll date during a Plan Year, on behalf of each Participant who is employed by the Company on such payroll date and who makes deferrals of Base Salary and/or Bonus under Article III, in an amount equal to the sum of (1) 50% of the first 6% of Base Salary and Bonus deferred under Article III for such payroll period plus (2) 20% of the next 5% of Base Salary and Bonus deferred under Article III for such payroll period, reduced by (3) the amount of the matching contributions that would have been made under the 401(k) Plan for such payroll period if the Participant had contributed 11% of his eligible compensation (or such other amount that represents the maximum level of pre-tax salary reduction contributions (including catch-up contributions) and/or Roth elective contributions with respect to which matching contributions would have been made on behalf of the Participant under the 401(k) Plan for the applicable period). For the avoidance of doubt, the amount of the reduction under paragraph (3) shall be the maximum amount of matching contributions that could have been made under 401(k) Plan on behalf of the Participant (regardless of whether such matching contributions were actually made under the 401(k) Plan).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Employer Matching Contributions made pursuant to this subsection 3.3(a) exceed 100% of the matching contributions that would have been provided under the 401(k) Plan absent any plan-based restrictions or limitations on contributions to qualified plans under the Code.

If a Participant is employed by more than one corporation that is included in the Company, the foregoing computation shall be applied to each such corporation based on the portion of the Plan Year during which the Participant was employed by such corporation. Notwithstanding the above, the Committee reserves the right to change or eliminate the Employer Matching Contribution in its sole discretion for any subsequent Plan Year.

(b)    The Employer Matching Contribution for a Plan Year shall be credited to a Participant’s Employer Matching Account in the manner determined by the Committee or the Administrator.

3.4    FICA and Other Taxes.

(a)    Withholding, Generally. The Company shall have the right to withhold from any payments due under the Plan (or with respect to amounts credited to the Plan) any taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of such payment (or credit).

(b)    Annual Deferral Amounts. For each Plan Year in which a Participant who is an employee makes a deferral under Section 3.1, the Participant’s employer shall withhold from that portion of the Participant’s Compensation that is not being deferred, in a manner determined by the employer, the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes on such amount. If necessary, the Committee or the Administrator may reduce the Participant's deferrals under Section 3.1 or make deductions from his Deferral Account in order to comply with this Section 3.4, to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

(c)    Employer Matching Amounts. For each Plan Year in which a Participant is credited with a contribution to his Employer Matching Account under Section 3.3,

the Participant’s employer shall withhold from the Participant’s Compensation that is not deferred, in a manner determined by the employer, the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes. If necessary, the Committee or the Administrator may reduce the Participant’s Employer Matching Account in order to comply with this Section 3.4, to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

(d)    Sempra Stock Fund. With respect to distributions of all or a portion of balances invested in the Sempra Stock Fund, withholding obligations shall be satisfied through the surrender of the applicable withholding percentage of such distributed balances (or portion thereof) in the Sempra Stock Fund.  Unless otherwise approved by the Committee, withholding obligations for Restricted Stock Units deferred into the Plan shall be satisfied by payment by the applicable Participant, deducted from other Compensation payable to such Participant which has not been deferred under the Plan, or a combination of these methods.

4.1    Measurement Funds.

(a)    Election of Measurement Funds. In the manner designated by the Committee or the Administrator, Participants may elect one or more Measurement Funds to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to their Accounts. Although the Participant may designate the available Measurement Funds that will be used to determine additional amounts to be credited to their Accounts, neither the Committee nor the Administrator shall be bound to make actual investments in such Measurement Funds based on the Participant’s election. If the Committee designates a substitute Measurement Fund for a Participant (without regard to the Participant’s election), the substitute Measurement Fund must provide the Participant with an investment opportunity reasonably comparable to the original Measurement Funds elected by the Participant, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee shall select from time to time, in its sole discretion, the Measurement Funds to be available under the Plan.

(b)    No Actual Investment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the Measurement Funds are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election of any such Measurement Fund, the allocation to his Accounts thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Accounts shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of his Accounts in any such Measurement Fund. In the event that the Committee, the Administrator, or the trustee, as applicable, in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any or all of the Measurement Funds, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves. Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Accounts shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his behalf by the Company. The Participant shall at all times remain an unsecured creditor of the Company

4.2    Investment Elections.

(a)    Participants.

(1)    Deferral Accounts. Except as provided in paragraph 4.2(a)(2) and Section 4.3, Participants may designate how their Deferral Accounts shall be deemed to be invested under the Plan.

(A)    Such Participants may make separate investment elections for (I) their future deferrals of Compensation and (II) the existing balances of their Deferral Accounts.

(B)    Such Participants may make and change their investment elections by choosing from the Measurement Funds designated by the Committee in accordance with the procedures established by the Committee or the Administrator.

(C)    Except as otherwise designated by the Committee, the available Measurement Funds under this paragraph 4.2(a)(1) shall be the investment funds under the 401(k) Plan (excluding the Stable Value Fund and any brokerage account option), the Sempra Stock Fund and the Measurement Fund based on the Moody’s Plus Rate.

(D)    If a Participant fails to elect a Measurement Fund under this subsection 4.2(a), he shall be deemed to have elected the Measurement Fund based on the Moody’s Plus Rate (unless a different default fund is designated by the Committee) for all of his Accounts.

(2)    Employer Matching Account and Certain Deferral Subaccounts.

(A)    (2)    Employer Matching Account and Certain Deferral Subaccounts. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee or the Administrator, Employer Matching Contributions credited to a Participant’s Employer Matching Account shall be invested in Measurement Funds in the same proportion as the corresponding deferrals of Compensation that are credited to his Deferral Account. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, a Participant may, however, transfer the investment of the Employer Matching Contributions credited to his Employer Matching Account into any Measurement Fund and may change their investment elections by choosing from the Measurement Funds designated by the Committee in accordance with the procedures established by the Committee or the Administrator. The deferrals of a Participant’s Restricted Stock Units credited to such Participant’s Deferral Account shall be deemed invested in the Sempra Stock Fund and may not be moved into any other Measurement Fund.

(B)    The deferrals of Elective Phantom Share Amounts and Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts credited to a Participant’s Deferral Account shall be initially deemed invested in the Sempra Stock Fund and shall remain deemed invested in the Sempra Stock Fund until the Participant’s Separation from Service. After the Participant’s Separation from Service, a Participant may direct the investment of the Elective Phantom Share Amount Subaccounts or Nonelective Phantom Share Amount Subaccounts of the Participant’s Deferral Account into any other Measurement Fund, as permitted by the Committee.

(b)    Continuing Investment Elections. Participants who have had a Separation From Service but not yet commenced distributions under Article VII or Participants or Beneficiaries who are receiving installment payments may continue to make investment elections as permitted under subsection 4.2(a) except as otherwise determined by the Committee.

4.3    Compliance with Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

(a)    Any Participant or Beneficiary who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall have his Measurement Fund elections under the Plan subject to the requirements of the Exchange Act, as interpreted by the Committee. Any such

Participant or Beneficiary who either (i) transferred amounts from another available Measurement Fund under the Plan into the Sempra Stock Fund or (ii) transferred any amounts from the Sempra Stock Fund to another available Measurement Fund under the Plan may not make an election with the opposite effect under this Plan or any other Company-sponsored plan until six (6) months and one (1) day following the original election.

(b)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any rule, instruction, election form or other form, the Plan and any such rule, instruction or form shall be subject to any additional conditions or limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, such Plan provision, rule, instruction or form shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

5.1    Accounts.

(a)    The Committee or the Administrator shall establish and maintain a Deferral Account, and an Employer Matching Account for each Participant under the Plan. Each Participant’s Accounts shall be divided into separate Subaccounts in accordance with Section 5.2. Each such Subaccount shall be further divided into separate investment fund Subaccounts, each of which corresponds to a Measurement Fund elected by the Participant pursuant to Section 4.2. In addition, Participants’ Deferral Accounts shall be further divided into Subaccounts consisting of deferred Restricted Stock Units, Elective Phantom Share Amounts, and Nonelective Phantom Share Amounts. A separate Subaccount shall be maintained for each deferral of Restricted Stock Units, Nonelective Phantom Share Amount and Elective Phantom Share Amount.

(b)    The performance of each elected Measurement Fund (either positive or negative) shall be determined by the Committee or the Administrator, in its reasonable discretion, based on the performance of the Measurement Funds themselves. A Participant’s Accounts shall be credited or debited on each Valuation Date, as determined by the Committee or the Administrator in its reasonable discretion, based on the performance of each Measurement Fund selected by the Participant as though (i) a Participant’s Accounts were invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to such period, as of the close of business on the first business day of such period, at the fair market value on such date; (ii) the portion of the Participant's Compensation that was actually deferred pursuant to Section 3.1 during any period were invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to such period, no later than the close of business on the first business day after the day on which such amounts are actually deferred from the Participant’s Compensation, at the fair market value on such date; and (iii) any withdrawal or distribution made to a Participant that decreases such Participant’s Accounts ceased being invested in the Measurement Fund(s), in the percentages applicable to such period, no earlier than one (1) business day prior to the distribution, at the fair market value on such date. The Participant’s Employer Matching Contribution for a Plan Year shall be credited to his Employer Matching Account for purposes of

this subsection 5.1(b), in the manner determined on the first day of the Election Period for such Plan Year, as determined by the Committee or the Administrator.

5.2    Subaccounts.

(a)    The Committee or the Administrator shall establish and maintain, with respect to a Participant’s Deferral Account, a Subaccount with respect to each Plan Year, to which shall be credited the amount equal to the portion of the Participant’s Compensation earned during such Plan Year that he elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.1, debited by amounts equal to distributions to and withdrawals made by the Participant and/or his Beneficiary and adjusted for investment earnings and losses pursuant to Article V.

(b)    The Committee or the Administrator shall establish and maintain, with respect to a Participant’s Employer Matching Account, a Subaccount with respect to each Plan Year, to which shall be credited the amount equal to the Employer Matching Contributions made pursuant to Section 3.3 on behalf of such Participant in respect of such Participant’s Compensation earned during such Plan Year that he elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.1, debited by amounts equal to distributions to and withdrawals made by the Participant and/or his Beneficiary and adjusted for investment earnings and losses pursuant to Article V.

(a)    Subject to subsections (c) and (d), each Participant shall be 100% vested in his Deferral Account at all times.

(b)    Each Participant shall become 100% vested in his Employer Matching Account after completing one (1) year of continuous employment with the Company; provided, however, that a Participant who had an Employer Matching Account under the Plan immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be 100% vested in his Employer Matching Account at all times.

(c)    A Participant’s deferred Restricted Stock Units credited to a Subaccount of such Deferred Account shall be subject to the vesting conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit award. The Subaccount of such Participant’s Deferral Amount for a deferred Restricted Stock Unit award shall become vested in accordance with the vesting conditions applicable to such Restricted Stock Unit award. To the extent such Restricted Stock Unit award is forfeited, the Subaccount of such Participant’s Deferral Account for such award shall be forfeited immediately following the event causing such forfeiture and the amount of such Subaccount shall be debited from such Deferral Account.

(d)    A Participant’s deferred Elective Phantom Share Amount credited to a Subaccount of such Participant’s Deferral Account shall be subject to the vesting conditions applicable to the initial or annual equity award for which such Elective Phantom Share Amount is credited. The Subaccount of such Participant’s Deferral Account for a deferred Elective Phantom Share Amount shall become vested in accordance with the vesting conditions applicable to such equity award, except as provided in subsection 7.3(b). To the extent such equity award is forfeited, the Subaccount of such Participant’s Deferral Account for such Elective Phantom Share Amount shall be forfeited immediately following the event causing such

forfeiture and the amount of such Subaccount shall be debited from such Deferral Account.

7.1    Distribution of Accounts.

(a)    Distribution at Separation from Service or Disability.

(1)    Normal Form.

(A)    Except as provided in subparagraph (B), paragraph (2), paragraph (3) or Section 7.3, upon the Separation from Service or Disability of a Participant, a Participant’s Distributable Amount with respect to each Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2011 shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum in cash (or shares of Sempra common stock for Restricted Stock Unit Subaccounts) on the Participant’s Payment Date. Except as provided in subparagraph (B), paragraph (2), paragraph (3) or Section 7.3, upon the Separation from Service or Disability of a Participant, a Participant’s Distributable Amount with respect to each Plan Year beginning prior to January 1, 2011 shall be paid to the Participant in substantially equal annual installments in cash (calculated as set forth in paragraph 7.1(a)(6) over ten (10) years beginning on the Participant’s Payment Date.

(B)    Upon the Separation from Service of a Participant who is a Specified Employee (determined as of the date of Separation from Service), the distribution of the Participant’s Distributable Amount shall be delayed until the first business day which is six (6) months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death) in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and shall be paid on the business day determined by the Committee or the Administrator that is on or within thirty (30) business days thereafter; provided, however, that if the Payment Date applicable to the Distributable Amount is later than the delayed payment date determined pursuant to this subparagraph 7.1(a)(1)(B), payment of the Distributable Amount shall be made on the Payment Date.

(2)    Optional Forms. Instead of receiving his Distributable Amount with respect to each Plan Year as described at subparagraph 7.1(a)(1)(A), the Participant may elect in accordance with Section 3.2 one of the following optional forms of payment (on the form provided by Committee or the Administrator) (or shares of Sempra common stock for Restricted Stock Unit Subaccounts) at the time of his deferral election for such Plan Year:

(i)    equal annual installments in cash (or shares of Sempra common stock for Restricted Stock Unit Subaccounts) (calculated as set forth in paragraph 7.1(a)(6)) over five (5) years beginning on the Participant’s Payment Date,

(iv)    a lump sum in cash (or shares of Sempra common stock for Restricted Stock Unit Subaccounts) .

The payment of such Participant’s Distributable Amount with respect each Plan Year shall be made or commence on such Participant’s Payment Date (or, if applicable, the date determined under subparagraph (a)(1)(B)).

(3)    Distribution Election Changes. In the event that a Participant changes his distribution form election with respect to a Plan Year in accordance with subsection 3.2(b), and such new distribution form election becomes effective, upon the Separation from Service or Disability of such Participant, the Distributable Amount with respect to such Plan Year shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with such new distribution form election.

(4)    Small Accounts. Notwithstanding provision to the contrary, in the event the total of a Participant’s Distributable Amounts with respect to all Plan Years is equal to or less than $25,000, such Distributable Amounts shall be distributed to the Participant (or his Beneficiary, as applicable) in a lump sum.

(5)    Investment Adjustments. The Participant’s Accounts shall continue to be adjusted for investment earnings and losses pursuant to Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 of the Plan until all amounts credited to his Accounts under the Plan have been distributed.

(6)    Calculating Payments. All payments made under the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the following:

(i)    All installment payments made under the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the annual fractional payment method, calculated as follows: the balance of Subaccounts in the Participant’s Accounts with respect to a Plan Year shall be calculated as of the Payment Date. The annual installment shall be calculated by multiplying this balance by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number of annual payments due the Participant. By way of example, if the Participant elects ten (10) year installments for the distribution of the Subaccounts in his Accounts with respect to a Plan Year, the first payment shall be 1/10 of the balance of such Subaccounts in his Accounts calculated as described in this definition. The following year, the payment shall be 1/9 of such Subaccounts in the balance of the Participant’s Accounts, calculated as described in this definition. Each annual installment for an applicable year shall be paid on or as soon as practicable after the Payment Date (but in any event no later than the last business day of such applicable year).

(ii)    All lump sum payments made under the Plan shall be calculated as of the close of business on the Payment Date. The lump sum shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Plan applicable thereto.

(b)    Distribution on a Scheduled Withdrawal Date.

(1)    In the case of a Participant who has elected a Scheduled Withdrawal Date for a distribution to be made prior to the Participant’s Separation from Service or while still a Director, in each case to the extent permitted by the Plan, such Participant shall receive his Withdrawal Amount as shall have been elected by the Participant to be subject to the Scheduled Withdrawal Date. A Participant’s Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to amounts of Compensation deferred in a given Plan Year must be at least three (3) years from the last day of the Plan Year for which such deferrals are made.

(2)    The Withdrawal Amount shall be paid in a lump sum in cash.

(3)    A Participant may elect to change the Scheduled Withdrawal Date for the Withdrawal Amount for any Plan Year in accordance with subsection 3.2(d).

(4)    In the event of Participant’s Separation from Service or Disability prior to a Scheduled Withdrawal Date, the Participant’s entire Withdrawal Amount shall be paid in accordance with the Participant’s election with respect to such Plan Year under subsection 7.1(a). In the event of a Participant’s death prior to a Scheduled Withdrawal Date, the Participant’s entire Withdrawal Amount shall be paid as soon as practicable after the Participant’s death in a lump sum in cash.

(c)    Distribution upon Death. In the event a Participant dies before he has begun receiving distributions under subsection 7.1(a), his Accounts shall be paid to his Beneficiary in the same manner elected by the Participant. In the event a Participant dies after he has begun receiving distributions under subsection 7.1(a) with a remaining balance in his Accounts, the balance shall continue to be paid to his Beneficiary in the same manner.

7.2    Hardship Distribution.

A Participant shall be permitted to elect a Hardship Distribution of all or a portion of his Accounts under the Plan prior to the Payment Date, subject to the following restrictions:

(a)    The election to take a Hardship Distribution shall be made by filing the form provided by the Committee or the Administrator before the date established by the Committee or the Administrator.

(b)    The Committee or the Administrator shall have made a determination that the requested distribution constitutes a Hardship Distribution in accordance with subsection 7.2(d).

(c)    The amount determined by the Committee or the Administrator as a Hardship Distribution shall be paid in a single lump sum in cash as soon as practicable after the end of the calendar month in which the Hardship Distribution election is made and approved by the Committee or the Administrator. The Hardship Distribution shall be distributed proportionately from the Subaccounts in the Participant’s Accounts, excluding the Restricted Stock Unit, Elective Phantom Share Amount or Nonelective Phantom Shares Amount Subaccounts and any amounts invested in the Sempra Stock Fund.

(d)    If a Participant receives a Hardship Distribution, the Participant shall be ineligible to contribute deferrals to the Plan for the remainder of the Plan Year in which the Hardship Distribution is received or the immediately following Plan Year. “Hardship Distribution” shall mean a severe financial hardship to the Participant resulting from (i) an illness or accident of the Participant, the Participant’s spouse or of his dependent (as defined in Section 152(a) of the Code), (ii) loss of a Participant’s property due to casualty, or (iii) other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant, as determined by the Committee or the Administrator in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. The amount of the Hardship Distribution with respect to a severe financial hardship shall not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy such hardship, plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship), as determined by the Committee or the Administrator in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.

7.3    Effect of a Change in Control.

(a)    In the event there is a Change in Control, the person who is the chief executive officer (or, if not so identified, Sempra’s highest ranking officer) shall name a third-party fiduciary as the sole member of the Committee immediately prior to such Change in Control and the appointed fiduciary, shall provide for the immediate distribution of the Accounts under the Plan in lump sum payments and cash to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

This Article X includes special provisions relating to the benefits of the Participants in the Plan who are employed by Sempra Energy Trading Corporation (“SET”) and Sempra Energy Solutions LLC (“SES”).

(a)    Background. Certain SET and SES employees are Participants in this Plan.

On July 9, 2007, Sempra, Sempra Global, Sempra Energy Trading International, B.V. (“SETI”) and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (“RBS”) entered into the Master Formation and Equity Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 9, 2007 (the “Master Formation Agreement”), which provides for the formation of a partnership, RBS Sempra Commodities LLP (“RBS Sempra Commodities”), to purchase and operate Sempra’s commodity-marketing businesses. Pursuant to a Master Formation Agreement, RBS Sempra Commodities will be formed as a United Kingdom limited liability partnership and RBS Sempra Commodities will purchase Sempra’s commodity-marketing subsidiaries.

Prior to the Closing, SET will be converted into a limited liability company (“SET LLC”). Following such conversion, SET employees will be employed by SET LLC. Prior to the Closing, SES will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of SET LLC.

Also, prior to the Closing, Sempra will own, directly or indirectly through wholly-owned subsidiaries, 100% of the membership interests in SET LLC and SES. Prior to the Closing, SET LLC and SES will be disregarded entities for federal income tax purposes.

Effective as of the Closing, RBS Sempra Commodities will purchase 100% of the membership interests in SET LLC.

As provided in the Master Formation Agreement, an employee of SET LLC who is actively at work on the Closing Date will continue to be employed by SET LLC immediately after the Closing Date, and an employee of SES who is actively at work on the Closing Date will continue to be employed by SES (each such employee is referred to as a Transferred Employee).

Also, as provided in the Master Formation Agreement, with respect to an employee of SET LLC or SES who is not actively at work on the Closing Date because such employee is on approved short-term disability or long-term disability leave in accordance with the Sempra Plans (such employee is referred to as an Inactive Employee), if such Inactive Employee returns to active work at the conclusion of such leave, and in any case within six (6) months following the Closing Date (or such longer period as is required by applicable law), such Inactive Employee shall become a Transferred Employee as of the date of such person’s return to active employment with the SET LLC or SES (such date is referred to as the Transfer Date).

Effective as of the Closing, SET LLC will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of RBS Sempra Commodities, SES will be an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of RBS Commodities, Sempra Global and SETI will be partners in RBS Sempra Commodities, and Sempra will own, indirectly through wholly-owned subsidiaries, at least a 50% profits interest in RBS Sempra Commodities.

(b)    Separation from Service

(1)    Effective as of the Closing, RBS Sempra Commodities will be a member of a group of trades or businesses (whether or not incorporated) under common control for purposes of Section 414(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(c)-2, as determined under Section 409A of the

Code, that includes Sempra and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Consequently, effective as of the Closing, RBS Sempra Commodities will be included in the “service recipient” that includes Sempra and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as defined under Section 409A of the Code.

(2)    A Participant who is an employee of SET LLC or SES, and who is a Transferred Employee effective as of the Closing Date, will not have a Separation from Service solely as a result of the purchase of the membership interests of SET LLC by RBS Sempra Commodities effective as of the Closing.

(3)    A Participant who is an employee of SET LLC or SES, who is an Inactive Employee, and who becomes a Transferred Employee effective on a Transfer Date after the Closing Date, will not have a Separation from Service solely as a result of the purchase of the membership interests of SET LLC by RBS Sempra Commodities or becoming a Transferred Employee on a Transfer Date after the Closing Date.

(4)    For purposes of the Plan, a participant in the Plan who is an employee of SET LLC or SES, and who is or becomes a Transferred Employee, will have a Separation from Service on or after the Closing Date (or the Transfer Date, if applicable), as determined under subsection 1.2(rr) and Section 409A of the Code.

(c)    Certain Defined Terms.

For purposes of this Article X, the terms “Closing,” “Closing Date,” “Inactive Employee,” “Sempra Plans,” “Transferred Employees” and “Transfer Date” shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms under the Master Formation Agreement.

Anything in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that any amounts payable under this Plan shall either be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code so as not to subject any Participant to payment of any additional tax, penalty or interest imposed under Section 409A of the Code. The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted to avoid the imputation of any such additional tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code yet preserve (to the nearest extent reasonably possible) the intended benefit payable to Participant. In no event shall the Company guarantee the tax treatment of participation in the Plan or any benefit provided hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event any of the amounts deferred or payable under the Plan are grandfathered for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be subject to the terms and conditions “that applied to such amounts prior to the effective date of Section 409A of the Code.
