RICHMOND, VA and CAYCE, SC – July 31, 2018 – The proposed combination of Dominion Energy, Inc. (NYSE: D) and SCANA Corporation (NYSE: SCG) has achieved another significant milestone with the approval of SCANA’s shareholders. SCANA’s special shareholder meeting was held today in Columbia, South Carolina, with Chairman of the Board of Directors, Maybank Hagood and Chief Executive Officer, Jimmy Addison presiding.

During the meeting, shareholders voted to approve the Merger Agreement, dated as of January 2, 2018 with Dominion Energy, meeting the requirement of receiving an affirmative vote from at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of SCANA’s common stock.

“We are pleased with the approval from our shareholders,” said Maybank Hagood, SCANA’s Chairman of the Board of Directors. “We believe the merger with Dominion Energy offers the most comprehensive solution for our customers and aligns SCANA with a company that mirrors our commitment to delivering safe and reliable energy.”

The merger previously received approval of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Georgia Public Service Commission, and early termination by the Federal Trade Commission of the 30-day waiting period under the federal Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act. The merger remains contingent upon approvals from the Public Service Commissions of South Carolina and North Carolina and authorization of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, among other conditions.

If the merger is completed, the combined company would deliver energy to approximately 6.5 million regulated customer accounts and have an electric generating portfolio of about 31,400 megawatts and 93,600 miles of electric transmission and distribution lines. It also would have a natural gas pipeline network totaling 106,400 miles and operate one of the nation's largest natural gas storage systems with 1 trillion cubic feet of capacity.
