NEW RETIREMENT BENEFIT RESTORATION PLAN

As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2009

Purpose

The Board of Directors of Dominion Resources, Inc. (the “Board”) adopted the New Retirement Benefit Restoration Plan effective January 1, 2005 to assist it in attracting and retaining those employees whose judgment, abilities and experience will contribute to the Company’s continued progress. The Plan is intended to be a plan that is unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a “select group of management or highly compensated employees” (as such phrase is used in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974).

The Company has amended the Dominion Pension Plan to add a cash balance feature to the Retirement Plan for employees hired on or after January 1, 2008. In order to allow newly hired employees to benefit under the Plan, it is necessary to amend the Plan to reflect the Dominion Pension Plan amendment.

The Plan is intended to qualify under the provisions of Code Section 409A and any regulations and other guidance under that Section. The Plan shall be interpreted to qualify under Code Section 409A.

The Board has determined that the benefits to be provided under the Plan are reasonable and appropriate compensation for the services rendered and to be rendered by Plan Participants.
