THIS AGREEMENT, effective as of the Date of Grant shown above, between Dominion Resources, Inc., a Virginia Corporation (the "Company") and the Participant named above is made pursuant and subject to the provisions of the Dominion Resources, Inc. 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan and any amendments thereto (the "Plan").  All terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Plan have the same meaning given to such terms in the Plan.

1. Award of Stock.  Pursuant to the Plan, the Number of Restricted Shares Granted   of Company Stock shown above (the “Restricted Stock”) were awarded to the Participant on the Date of Grant shown above, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, and subject further to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2. Vesting.  Except as provided in Paragraphs 3, 4, 5 or 6, one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement will vest on the Vesting Date shown above.

3. Forfeiture.  Except as provided in Paragraphs 4 or 5, the Participant will forfeit any and all rights in the Restricted Stock if the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Dominion Company terminates for any reason prior to the Vesting Date.

4. Death, Disability, Retirement or Involuntary Termination without Cause.  If the Participant dies, becomes Disabled, or Retires (as such term is defined in Paragraph 8(e)) before the Vesting Date or if the Participant’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company or a Dominion Company without Cause (as defined in the Employment Continuity Agreement between the Participant and the Company) before the Vesting Date, the Participant will become vested in the number of shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months from the Date of Grant to the first day of the month coinciding with or immediately following the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is the number of months from the Date of Grant to the Vesting Date.  If the Participant Retires, however, the Participant’s Restricted Stock will not vest if the Company’s Chief Executive Officer determines, in his sole discretion, that the Participant’s Retirement is detrimental to the Company.  The vesting will occur on the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or immediately following the date of the Participant’s termination of employment due to death, Disability, Retirement, or termination by the Company without Cause.  Any shares of Restricted Stock that do not vest in accordance with this Paragraph 4 will be forfeited.

5. Change of Control.  Upon a Change of Control prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant’s rights in the Restricted Stock will become vested as follows:

a. A portion of the Restricted Stock will be immediately vested equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months from the Date of Grant to the Change of Control date, and the denominator of which is the number of months from the Date of Grant to the Vesting Date.

b. Unless previously forfeited, the remaining shares of Restricted Stock will become vested after a Change of Control at the earliest of the following events and in accordance with the terms described in subparagraphs (i) through (iii) below:

(i) Vesting Date.  All remaining shares of Restricted Stock will become vested on the Vesting Date.

(ii) Death, Disability or Retirement.  If the Participant dies or becomes Disabled or Retires (as defined in Paragraph 8(e)), the Participant will become vested in the remaining shares of Restricted Stock multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of  months from the Change of Control date to the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or immediately following the Participant’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is the number of months from the Change of Control date to the Vesting Date. If the Participant Retires, however, the Participant’s Restricted Stock will not vest if the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in his sole discretion, determines that the Participant’s Retirement is detrimental to the Company.  The vesting will occur on the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or immediately following the Participant’s termination of employment due to death, Disability, or Retirement. Any shares of the Restricted Stock that do not vest in accordance with the terms of this subparagraph (ii) will be forfeited.

(iii) Involuntary Termination without Cause.  All remaining shares of Restricted Stock will become vested upon the Participant’s involuntary termination by the Company without Cause, including Constructive Termination, as such terms are defined by the Employment Continuity Agreement between the Participant and the Company.

6. Termination for Cause.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause (as defined by the Employment Continuity Agreement between the Participant and the Company), the Participant will forfeit all Restricted Stock shares awarded pursuant to this Agreement.

7. Claw Back of Award Payment.

a. Restatement of Financial Statements.  If the Company’s financial statements are required to be restated at any time within a two (2) year period following the Vesting Date as a result of fraud or intentional misconduct, the Committee may, in its discretion, based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the restatement, direct the Company to withhold issuance of all or a portion of the shares granted pursuant to this Agreement, or if shares have been issued, to recover all or a portion of the shares from the Participant if the Participant’s conduct directly caused or partially caused the need for the restatement.

b. Fraudulent or Intentional Misconduct.  If the Company determines that the Participant has engaged in fraudulent or intentional misconduct related to or materially affecting the Company’s business operations or the Participant’s duties at the Company, the Committee may, in its discretion, based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the misconduct, direct the Company to withhold issuance of all or a portion of the shares granted pursuant to this Agreement, or if shares have been issued, to recover all or a portion of the shares from the Participant.

c. Recovery of Payout.  The Company reserves the right to recover a Restricted Stock Award payout pursuant to this Paragraph 7 by (i) seeking recovery of the vested shares from the Participant; (ii) reducing the amount that would otherwise be payable to the Participant under another Company benefit plan or compensation program to the extent permitted by applicable law; (iii) withholding future annual and long-term incentive awards or salary increases; or (iv) taking any combination of these actions.

d. No Limitation on Remedies.   The Company’s right to recover Restricted or Issued Stock  pursuant to this Section 7 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, actions the Company may take to remedy or discipline a Participant’s misconduct including, but not limited to, termination of employment or initiation of a legal action for breach of fiduciary duty.
