METHODS OF ALLOCATION FOR DRS 
 DRS shall
allocate costs among companies receiving service from it under this and similar service contracts using the following methods: 
  

	I	The costs of rendering service by DRS will include all costs of doing business including interest on debt but excluding a return for the use of equity capital for which no charge will be made to Dominion Companies.


  

	II	A. DRS will maintain a separate record of the expenses of each department. The expenses of each department will include: 

  

	 	1.	those expenses that are directly attributable to such department, and 

  

	 	2.	an appropriate portion of those office and housekeeping expenses that are not directly attributable to a department but which are necessary to the operation of such department. 


 

	 	B.	Expenses of the department will include salaries and wages of employees, rent and utilities, materials and supplies, depreciation, and all other expenses attributable to the department. The expenses of a department will
not include: 

  

	 	1.	those incremental out-of-pocket expenses that are incurred for the direct benefit and convenience of an individual Dominion Company or
group of Dominion Companies, 

  

	 	2.	DRS overhead expenses that are attributable to maintaining the corporate existence of DRS, and all other incidental overhead expenses including those auditing fees, internal auditing department expenses and accounting
department expenses attributable to DRS. 

  

	 	C.	DRS will establish annual budgets for controlling the expenses of each department and for determining estimated costs to be included in interim monthly billing. 


 

	III	A. Employees in each department will be divided into two groups: 

  

	 	1.	Group A will include those employees rendering service to Dominion Companies, and 

  

	 	2.	 Group B will include those office and general service employees, such as secretaries, file clerks and administrative assistants, who generally assist











	 	
employees in Group A or render other housekeeping services and who are not engaged directly in rendering service to each Dominion Company or a group of Dominion Companies. 


 

	 	B.	Expenses set forth in Section II. above will be separated to show: 

  

	 	1.	salaries and wages of Group A employees, and 

  

	 	2.	all other expenses of the department. 

  

	 	C.	There will be attributed to each dollar of a Group A employee’s salary or wage, that percentage of all other expenses of such employee’s department (as defined in B above), that such employee’s salary or
wage is to the total Group A salaries and wages of that department. 

  

	 	D.	Group A employees in each department will maintain a record of the time they are employed in rendering service to each Dominion Company or group of Dominion Companies. An hourly rate will be determined by dividing the
total expense attributable to a Group A employee as determined under subsection C above by the productive hours reported by such employee. 

  

	IV	The charge to the Dominion Company for a particular service will be determined by multiplying the hours reported by Group A employees in rendering such service to each Dominion Company by the hourly rates applicable to
such employees. When such employees render service to a group of Dominion Companies, the charge to each Dominion Company will be determined by multiplying the hours attributable to the Dominion Company under the allocation formulas set forth in
Section IX of this Exhibit by the hourly rates applicable to such employees. 

  

	V	To the extent appropriate and practical, the foregoing computations of hourly rates and charges may be determined for groups of employees within reasonable salary range limits. 


 

	VI	Those expenses of DRS that are not included in the annual expense of a department under Section II. above will be charged to Dominion Companies receiving service as follows: 


 

	 	A.	Incremental out-of-pocket costs incurred for the direct benefit and convenience of a Dominion Company or group of Dominion Companies will
be charged directly to such Dominion Company or group of Dominion Companies. Such costs incurred for a group of Dominion Companies will be allocated on the basis of an appropriate formula. 


 

	 	B.	DRS overhead expenses referred to in Section II above will be charged to the Dominion Company either on the proportion of direct charges to that Dominion Company or under the allocation formulas set forth in Section IX
of this Exhibit. 


  
 2 









	VII	Notwithstanding the foregoing basis of determining cost allocations for billing purposes, cost allocations for certain services involving machine operations, production or service units, or facilities cost will be
determined on an appropriate basis established by DRS. 

  

	VIII	Monthly bills will be issued for the services rendered to the Dominion Company on an actual basis. However, if such actual information is not available at the time of preparation of the monthly bill, estimates may be
used. Estimates will normally be predicated on service department budgets and estimated productive hours of employees for the year. At the end of each quarter, estimated figures will be revised and adjustments will be made in amounts billed to give
effect to such revision. 

  

	IX	When Group A employees render services to a group of Dominion Companies, the following formulas shall be used to allocate the time of such employees to the individual Dominion Companies receiving such service:
