| **Article I.** | **Name.** |
|  | The name of the Corporation is Dominion Energy, Inc. |
| **Article II.** | **Shareholders' Meetings.** |
|  | All meetings of the Shareholders shall be held at such place, within or without the Commonwealth of Virginia, as provided in the notice of the meeting provided in accordance with Article V – Notice of Shareholders' Meetings; *provided*, *however*, that the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place and shall instead be held solely by means of remote communication as provided under the Virginia Stock Corporation Act. Any previously scheduled Shareholder meeting may be adjourned, postponed or rescheduled from time to time by the Board of Directors, whether or not a quorum is present. In no event shall any adjournment of a Shareholder meeting or the announcement thereof require the Board of Directors or the Corporate Secretary, as the case may be, to fix a new record date, unless if such Shareholder meeting is adjourned to a date more than one hundred-twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting. |
| **Article III.** | **Annual Meeting.** |
|  | The Annual Meeting of the Shareholders shall be held on any date and at any time as determined by the Board of Directors from year to year. |
| **Article IV.** | **Special Meetings.** |
|  | Special Meetings of the Shareholders shall be held whenever called by the Chair of the Board of Directors, the Vice Chair (if any), the Chief Executive Officer, or a majority of the Directors. Special Meetings of the Shareholders may also be held following the accrual or termination of voting rights of the Preferred Stock, whenever requested to be called in the manner provided in the Articles of Incorporation. |
|  | Special Meetings of the Shareholders shall also be held whenever called by the Corporate Secretary, upon the written request of the Shareholders owning continuously for a period of at least one year prior to the date of such request, more than fifteen percent (15%) of all the outstanding shares of the Corporation (a "Qualifying Shareholder Request"). Each such written request must be signed by a Shareholder requesting the Special Meeting of the Shareholders and delivered either by personal delivery or by United States ("U.S.") certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation and received at the principal executive office of the Corporation and shall set forth (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the Special Meeting of the Shareholders, including the complete text of any resolutions to be presented at the Special Meeting of the Shareholders with respect to such business (including the text of any proposed amendment to these Bylaws in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these Bylaws), and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; (b) the date of request; (c) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such Shareholder and of any Shareholder Associated Person (as defined in Article X); (d) the ownership information of such Shareholder and any Shareholder Associated Person as required by Article X, including a written agreement to update and supplement such information; (e) any material interest of such Shareholder and of any Shareholder Associated Person in such business; (f) a representation that such Shareholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting of the Shareholders to transact the business specified and (g) a representation that such Shareholder intends to hold the shares of the Corporation's stock through the date of the Special Meeting of the Shareholders. |

| In addition to the requirements set forth above to request that the Corporate Secretary call a Special Meeting of the Shareholders, Shareholder requests submitted with respect to the nomination of candidates for election as Directors to the Board of Directors shall include the information as required to be included in a notice of a Shareholder's intent to nominate a Director pursuant to Article XI. In addition to the requirements set forth above to request that the Corporate Secretary call a Special Meeting of the Shareholders, Shareholder requests submitted with respect to the submission of other proposals shall include the information as required to be included in a notice of a Shareholder's intent to submit a shareholder proposal at an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders pursuant to Article X. |
| Multiple shareholder requests delivered to the Corporate Secretary will be considered together to determine whether a Qualifying Shareholder Request has been made only if each such request (a) identifies substantially the same purpose or purposes of the Special Meeting of the Shareholders and substantially the same matters proposed to be acted on at the Special Meeting of the Shareholders, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, and (b) has been dated and delivered to the Corporate Secretary within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated shareholder request. |
| Any Shareholder may revoke their or its written shareholder request at any time by written revocation delivered to the Corporate Secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation. |
| Business transacted at any Special Meeting of the Shareholders held pursuant to a Qualifying Shareholder Request shall be limited to the purpose(s) stated in the Qualifying Shareholder Request; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Board of Directors from submitting matters to the Shareholders at any Special Meeting of the Shareholders held pursuant to a Qualifying Shareholder Request. If none of the Shareholders who made the Qualifying Shareholder Request appears or sends a qualified representative to present the matters specified in the Qualifying Shareholder Request, the Corporation need not present such matters for a vote at such meeting. |
| The Corporate Secretary shall not be required to call a Special Meeting of the Shareholders if (a) the Board of Directors calls an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting of the Shareholders to be held not later than ninety (90) days after the first date on which valid Qualifying Shareholder Requests constituting more than fifteen percent (15%) of all the outstanding shares of the Corporation have been delivered to the Corporate Secretary (the "Delivery Date") and the business to be conducted at such meeting is substantially similar to the business requested by a Shareholder to be brought before a Special Meeting of the Shareholders, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (it being understood that for the purposes of this clause (a) the election of directors shall be deemed a similar item with respect to all items of business involving the election or removal of directors) or (b) the Qualifying Shareholder Request (i) has a Delivery Date which is during the period commencing ninety (90) days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's Annual Meeting of the Shareholders and ending on the date of the next Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, (ii) contains an identical or substantially similar item to an item that was presented at any meeting of the Shareholders held within one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the Delivery Date (for purposes of this clause (ii) the election of directors shall be deemed a similar item with respect to all items of business involving the election or removal of directors), (iii) relates to an item of business that is not a proper subject for Shareholder action under applicable law, (iv) was made in a manner that involved a violation of Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules and regulations, the "Exchange Act"), or other applicable law, or (v) does not comply with the provisions of this Article IV. |
| Any Special Meeting of the Shareholders held pursuant to a Qualifying Shareholder Request shall be held at such date and time as may be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the date of any such Special Meeting of the Shareholders shall not be more than ninety (90) days after the Delivery Date. |

| **Article V.** | **Notice of Shareholders' Meetings.** |
|  | Notice stating the place, if any, means of remote communication, if any, and day and hour of each Shareholders' meeting and, in the case of a Special Meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting, or such longer period as is specified below, by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors or its Chair, the Vice Chair (if any), the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any Vice President or the Corporate Secretary or any Assistant Corporate Secretary, to each Shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. Notice shall also be given to other Shareholders of record to the extent required by the Articles of Incorporation or by law. Notice may be mailed to a Shareholder at the Shareholder's registered address and such notice will be deemed to be given when deposited in the U.S. mail, postage-paid, addressed to the Shareholder at the Shareholder's address as it appears on the stock transfer books. Alternatively, notice may be given to a Shareholder by electronic transmission as permitted by the Virginia Stock Corporation Act or any other applicable law and, in such case, shall be effective as provided therein. |
|  | Notice of a Shareholders' meeting to act on an amendment of the Articles of Incorporation, on a plan of merger, share exchange, domestication or conversion, on a proposed dissolution of the Corporation, or on a proposed sale of the Corporation's assets that would require Shareholder approval, shall be given not less than twenty-five (25) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. Any notice of a Shareholders' meeting to act on such a matter shall be accompanied by a copy of the applicable proposed amendment, plan of merger, share exchange, domestication or conversion, plan of dissolution or agreement effecting the disposition of assets. |
|  | If any Shareholders' meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, if any, notice need not be given if the new date, time or place, if any, is announced at the meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is fixed under Article IX, however, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given under this Article to Shareholders entitled to notice as of the new record date. Any Shareholder who attends a meeting may be deemed to have waived notice of such meeting. |
| **Article VI.** | **Voting Lists.** |
|  | After the record date for a meeting of the Shareholders has been fixed pursuant to Article IX, or by law, and such record date has occurred, the officer or agent having charge of the share transfer books of the Corporation shall prepare an alphabetical list of the Shareholders of record entitled to notice of such meeting. The list shall be arranged by voting group (and within each voting group by class or series of shares) and show the address of and number of shares held by each Shareholder. The Shareholders' list shall be available for inspection by any Shareholder of record, beginning two (2) business days after notice of such meeting is given and continuing through the meeting, (i) at the principal executive office of the Corporation, (ii) at a place identified in the meeting notice in the county or city where the meeting will be held or (iii) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting given in accordance with Article V of these Bylaws. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is only available to Shareholders of the Corporation. |
|  | In the event the Board of Directors has fixed a different record date to determine which Shareholders are entitled to vote at such meeting, a list of Shareholders of record entitled to vote, prepared in the same manner as the Shareholders' list for notice, shall be similarly available for inspection by any Shareholder of record promptly after the record date for voting. The Corporation shall make the list of Shareholders entitled to vote available at the meeting, and any Shareholder of record, or the Shareholder's agent or attorney, is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the meeting or any adjournment. The original share transfer books, or a duplicate thereof, shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the Shareholders entitled to examine such list |

| <br>**Article VII.** | or to vote, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of the Shareholders. In addition to the foregoing inspection rights, any person who shall have been a Shareholder of record for at least six (6) months immediately preceding delivery of such person's demand or who is the holder of record of at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, or such Shareholder's agent or attorney, upon demand that is made in good faith and for a proper purpose, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act, shall have the right to copy such list(s) at such Shareholder's expense, during regular business hours, during the period that it is available for inspection.<br>**Quorum.** |
|  | At any meeting of the Shareholders, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting shall constitute a quorum. Less than a quorum may adjourn any meeting from time to time. If at any meeting of the Shareholders there shall be no quorum present or represented, then the Chair of such meeting may, to the extent permitted by law, adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until such quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. A determination of Shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a Shareholders' meeting is effective for any such adjourned meeting unless the Board of Directors or Corporate Secretary, as the case may be, fixes a new record date, which shall be done if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than one hundred-twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting, The provisions of this Article are, however, subject to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation. |
| **Article VIII.** | **Voting.** |
|  | When a quorum is present at any meeting, action on a matter is approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the action is the election of Directors, which is governed by Article XIII of these Bylaws or is one upon which by express provision of law, the Articles of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, a larger or different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. |
|  | Shareholders of record entitled to vote may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy executed in writing or by proxy authorized by any means permitted by the Virginia Stock Corporation Act or other applicable law. In each case, such proxy must be authorized by the Shareholder or by the Shareholder's duly authorized officer, director, employee or agent or attorney-in-fact, and shall be filed with or received by the inspector of election or other officer or agent of the Corporation authorized to tabulate votes for the meeting before being voted. A proxy shall designate only one person as proxy, except that proxies executed pursuant to a general solicitation of proxies may designate one or more persons, any one of whom may act as proxies. Proxies given for a specific Shareholders' meeting shall entitle the holders to vote at any adjournment of the meeting, but shall not be valid after the final adjournment of that meeting. No proxy shall be valid after 11 months from its date unless the appointment form expressly provides for a longer period of validity. Shareholders entitled to vote may also be represented by an agent personally present, duly designated by power of attorney, with or without power of substitution, and such power of attorney shall be produced at the meeting on request. Each holder of record of shares of any class shall, as to all matters in respect of which shares of any class have voting power, be entitled to one vote for each share of stock of such class standing in such holder's name on the books of the Corporation. |
|  | Any Shareholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other Shareholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which shall be reserved for the exclusive use by the Board of Directors. |

| **Article IX.** | **Record Date.** |
|  | For the purpose of determining the Shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Shareholders, or any adjournment, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of Shareholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors may fix the date on which it takes such action or a future date as the record date for any such determination of Shareholders, provided that such date shall not in any case be more than seventy (70) days prior to the date on which the meeting or other action requiring such determination of Shareholders is to take place. The Board of Directors is authorized to delegate to the Corporate Secretary the determination of a record date for any meeting of Shareholders. If no record date shall be fixed for the determination of Shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Shareholders, or for the determination of the Shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of Shareholders in such cases. A determination of Shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a Shareholders' meeting is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board of Directors or Corporate Secretary fixes a new record date, which shall be done if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than one hundred-twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting. |
| **Article X.** | **Shareholder Proposals.** |
|  | At an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a Shareholder who (i) is a Shareholder of record both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Article X and at the time of the meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (iii) has complied with the notice procedures set forth in this Article X as to such business. For business to be properly brought before the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders pursuant to the foregoing clause (c) of this Article X, such business must constitute a proper subject for Shareholder action under applicable law. Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the foregoing clause (c) shall be the exclusive means for a Shareholder to propose business to be brought before an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders. |
|  | For business to be properly brought before an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders by a Shareholder, the Shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a Shareholder's notice must be delivered either by personal delivery or by U.S. certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation and received at the principal executive office of the Corporation (i) not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one hundred-twenty (120) days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's Annual Meeting of the Shareholders or (ii) if the date of the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, not later than the ninetieth (90<sup>th</sup>) day prior to such Annual Meeting of the Shareholders or, if later, the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such Annual Meeting of the Shareholders was first made. In no event shall any adjournment of an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of timely notice as described above. |

| (b) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such Shareholder proposing such business and of any Shareholder Associated Person (as defined below); |

| respect to any such nomination or the solicitation of proxies with respect thereto. In addition to the other requirements of this Article XI, (i) no Shareholder or Shareholder Associate Person shall solicit proxies in support of any nominees, other than Board Nominees, unless such Shareholder and Shareholder Associated Person have complied with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act in connection with the solicitation of such proxies, including the provision to the Corporation of notices required hereunder in a timely manner, and (ii) if such Shareholder or Shareholder Associated Person (1) provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act and (2) subsequently fails to comply with any of the requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, then the Corporation shall disregard any proxies or votes solicited for such Shareholder's nominees. Upon request by the Corporation, if any Shareholder or Shareholder Associated Person provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act, such Shareholder or Shareholder Associated Person shall deliver to the Corporation, not later than five (5) business days prior to the applicable meeting, reasonable evidence that such Shareholder or Shareholder Associated Person has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act. |

| In addition to the information required to be provided by a Shareholder pursuant to this Article XI, each Shareholder Nominee must also deliver to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation a written representation and agreement with respect to the items specified in Article XII(g)(i) though (v). Additionally, at the request of the Corporation, the Shareholder Nominee must submit all completed and signed questionnaires required of the Corporation's Directors and officers within five (5) business days of receipt.

| The Chair of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination intended to be made pursuant to the requirements of this Article XI was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by this Article XI. If the Chair of the meeting should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. Unless otherwise required by law, if the Shareholder (or a qualified representative of the Shareholder) does not appear at the meeting of the Shareholders to nominate the individual set forth in such Shareholder's notice of intent to nominate one or more candidates for election as Director to the Board of Directors pursuant to this Article XI, such nomination shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that the Corporation may have received proxies in respect of such vote. |

| **Article XII.** | **Proxy Access for Director Nominations.** |
|  | (a) Whenever the Board of Directors solicits proxies with respect to the election of Directors at an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, subject to the provisions of this Article XII, the Corporation shall include in its proxy materials for such Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, in addition to any persons nominated for election by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, the name, together with the Required Information (as defined below), of any Shareholder Nominee to the Board of Directors by an Eligible Shareholder (as defined below) who expressly elects at the time of providing the notice required by this Article XII (the "Notice of Proxy Access Nomination") to have its nominee included in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Article XII. An "Eligible Shareholder" is defined as a Shareholder or group of no more than twenty (20) Shareholders (counting as one Shareholder, for this purpose, any two (2) or more funds that are (i) under common management and investment control, (ii) under common management and funded primarily by the same employer, or (iii) a "group of investment companies," as such term is defined in Section 12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) that satisfies the requirements of section (e) of this Article XII. As used herein, the term "Eligible Shareholder" means such Shareholder or Shareholder group, including each member thereof to the extent the context requires. In the event that the Eligible Shareholder consists of a group of Shareholders, any and all requirements and obligations for an individual Eligible Shareholder that are set forth in these Bylaws, including the Minimum Holding Period (as defined below), shall apply to each member of such group; provided, however, that the Required Ownership Percentage (as defined below) shall apply to the ownership of the group in the aggregate. For purposes of this Article XII, the "Required Information" that the Corporation will include in its proxy materials is the information provided to the Corporate Secretary concerning the Shareholder Nominee and the Eligible Shareholder that is required to be disclosed in the Corporation's proxy materials by the regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, and if the Eligible Shareholder so elects, a written statement, not to exceed five hundred (500) words, in support of the Shareholder Nominee(s)' candidacy (the "Statement"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XII, the Corporation may omit from its proxy materials any information or Statement (or portion thereof) that it, in good faith, believes is untrue in any material respect (or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading) or would violate any applicable law or regulation, and the Corporation may solicit against, and include in the proxy materials its own statement relating to, any Shareholder Nominee. |
|  | (b) To be timely, the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination must be addressed to the Corporate Secretary and delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Corporate Secretary no more than one hundred-fifty (150) days and no less than one hundred-twenty (120) days before the anniversary of the date that the Corporation issued its proxy materials for the previous year's Annual Meeting of the Shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders is called for a date that is not within thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, in order to be timely the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) day following the day on which notice of the date of the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders was made, whichever first occurs. The advance notice requirement specified in this Article XII(b) is the Corporation's "advance notice provision" for purposes of Rule 14a-18 under the Exchange Act. |
|  | (c) The maximum number of Shareholder Nominees nominated by all Eligible Shareholders that will be included in the Corporation's proxy materials with respect to an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders shall not exceed the greater of (i) two (2) or (ii) twenty percent (20%) of the total number of Directors in office (rounded down to the nearest whole number below twenty percent (20%)) (the "Maximum Number") as of the last day on which a Notice of Proxy Access Nomination may be delivered pursuant to and in accordance with this Article XII (the "Final Proxy Access Nomination Date"). In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occurs after the Final Proxy Access Nomination Date but before the date of the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders and the Board of Directors resolves to reduce the size of the Board of Directors in connection therewith, the Maximum Number included in the Corporation's proxy materials shall be calculated based on the number of Directors in office as so reduced. |

|:---|
| The following individuals shall be counted for purposes of determining when the Maximum Number has been reached: (i) any individual nominated by an Eligible Shareholder for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Article XII whom the Board of Directors decides to nominate as a nominee of the Board of Directors, (ii) any individual nominated by an Eligible Shareholder for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Article XII but whose nomination is subsequently withdrawn, shall be counted as one of the Shareholder Nominees for purposes of determining when the maximum number of Shareholder Nominees provided for in this Article XII has been reached, and (iii) any Director in office as of the Final Proxy Access Nomination Date who was included in the Corporation's proxy materials as a Shareholder Nominee for any of the three (3) preceding Annual Meetings (including any individual counted as a Shareholder Nominee pursuant to item (i)). Any Eligible Shareholder submitting more than one Shareholder Nominee for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Article XII shall rank such Shareholder Nominees based on the order that the Eligible Shareholder desires such Shareholder Nominees to be selected for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials in the event that the total number of Shareholder Nominees submitted by Eligible Shareholders pursuant to this Article XII exceeds the Maximum Number provided for in this Article XII. In the event that the number of Shareholder Nominees submitted by Eligible Shareholders pursuant to this Article XII exceeds the Maximum Number provided for in this Article XII, the highest ranking Shareholder Nominee who meets the requirements of this Article XII from each Eligible Shareholder will be selected for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials until the Maximum Number is reached, going in order of the amount (largest to smallest) of shares of the Corporation's outstanding common stock each Eligible Shareholder disclosed as Owned (as defined below) in its respective Notice of Proxy Access Nomination submitted to the Corporation. If the Maximum Number is not reached after the highest-ranking Shareholder Nominee who meets the requirements of this Article XII from each Eligible Shareholder has been selected, this process will continue as many times as necessary, following the same order each time, until the Maximum Number is reached. |
| (d) For purposes of this Article XII, a Shareholder shall "Own" only those outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation as to which the Shareholder possesses both: |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the full voting and investment rights pertaining to the shares; and |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the full economic interest in (including the opportunity for profit from and risk of loss on) such shares; |
| provided that the number of shares calculated in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) shall not include any shares: |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) sold by such Shareholder or any of its affiliates in any transaction that has not been settled or closed, including any short sale; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) borrowed by such Shareholder or any of its affiliates for any purposes or purchased by such Shareholder or any of its affiliates pursuant to an agreement to resell; or |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(z) subject to any option, warrant, forward contract, swap, contract of sale, other derivative or similar agreement entered into by such Shareholder or any of its affiliates, whether any such instrument or agreement is to be settled with shares or with cash based on the notional amount or value of shares of outstanding common stock of the Corporation, in any such case which instrument or agreement has, or is intended to have, or if exercised by either party would have, the purpose or effect of: |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) reducing in any manner, to any extent or at any time in the future, such Shareholder's or its affiliates' full right to vote or direct the voting of any such shares; and/or |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) hedging, offsetting or altering to any degree any gain or loss realized or realizable from maintaining the full economic ownership of such shares by such Shareholder or its affiliates. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A Shareholder shall "Own" shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the Shareholder retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of Directors and possesses the full economic interest in the shares. A Shareholder's ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during (i) any period in which shares have been loaned, provided that the Shareholder has the power to recall such loaned shares on five (5) business days' notice and provides a representation that it will promptly recall such loaned shares upon being notified that any of its Shareholder Nominees will be included in the proxy materials, and (ii) any period in which the Shareholder has delegated any voting power by means of a proxy, power of attorney or other instrument or arrangement which is revocable at any time by the Shareholder. The terms "Owned," "Owning" and other variations of the word "Own" shall have correlative meanings. Whether outstanding shares of the common stock of the Corporation are "Owned" for these purposes shall be determined by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, in each case, in its sole discretion. For purposes of this Article XII, the term "affiliate" or "affiliates" shall have the meaning ascribed thereto under the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act. A Shareholder shall include in its Notice of Proxy Access Nomination the number of shares it is deemed to Own for the purposes of this Article XII. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In order to make a nomination pursuant to this Article XII, a Shareholder must have Owned (as defined above) the Required Ownership Percentage (as defined below) of the Corporation's outstanding common stock (the "Required Shares") continuously for the Minimum Holding Period (as defined below) as of both the date the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination is delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Corporate Secretary in accordance with this Article XII and the record date for determining the Shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and must continue to Own the Required Shares through the meeting date. For purposes of this Article XII, the "Required Ownership Percentage" is three percent (3%) or more, and the "Minimum Holding Period" is three (3) years. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Within the time period specified in this Article XII for delivering the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination, an Eligible Shareholder must provide the following information in writing to the Corporate Secretary: |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) one or more written statements from the record holder of the shares (and from each intermediary through which the shares are or have been held during the Minimum Holding Period) verifying that, as of a date within seven (7) calendar days prior to the date the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination is delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Corporate Secretary, the Eligible Shareholder Owns, and has Owned continuously for the Minimum Holding Period, the Required Shares, and the Eligible Shareholder's agreement to provide, within five (5) business days after the record date for the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders, written statements from the record holder and intermediaries verifying the Eligible Shareholder's continuous ownership of the Required Shares through the record date; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a copy of the Schedule 14N that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by Rule 14a-18 under the Exchange Act; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the information, representations and agreements that are the same as those that would be required to be set forth in a Shareholder's notice of nomination pursuant to Article XI of these Bylaws; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the consent of each Shareholder Nominee to being named in the proxy materials as a nominee and to serving as a Director if elected; |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Within the time period specified in this Article XII for delivering the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination, a Shareholder Nominee must deliver to the Corporate Secretary a written representation and agreement that such person: |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) will act as a representative of all of the Shareholders of the Corporation while serving as a Director; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) is not and will not become a party to (1) any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such Shareholder Nominee, if elected as a Director of the Corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question that has not been disclosed to the Corporation (a "Voting Commitment") or (2) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such Shareholder Nominee's ability to comply, if elected as a Director of the Corporation, with such Shareholder Nominee's fiduciary duties under applicable law; |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) is not or will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the Corporation with respect to direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with candidacy or service as a Director of the Corporation that has not been disclosed to the Corporation as provided in section (h); |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) At the request of the Corporation, the Shareholder Nominee must submit all completed and signed questionnaires required of the Corporation's Directors and officers within five (5) business days of receipt. The Corporation may request such additional information as necessary to permit the Board of Directors to determine if each Shareholder Nominee is independent under the Applicable Independence Standards. If the Shareholder Nominee is or becomes a party to any Third-Party Compensation, or has received or will receive any such Third-Party Compensation in connection with candidacy or service as a Director of the Corporation (other than agreements providing only for indemnification and/or reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses in connection with candidacy as a Director), such Third-Party Compensation must be fully and completely disclosed to the Corporation's Directors and officers in the manner provided by this section (h); in addition, any such Third-Party Compensation related to the Shareholder Nominee's service as a Director of the Corporation may not continue and must cease immediately if the Shareholder Nominee becomes a Director of the Corporation. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) In the event that any information or communications provided by the Eligible Shareholder or the Shareholder Nominee to the Corporation or its Shareholders ceases to be true and correct in all material respects or omits a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, each Eligible Shareholder or Shareholder Nominee, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the Corporate Secretary of any defect in such previously provided information and of the information that is required to correct any such defect. |

| <br>**Article XIII.** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Board of Directors or the Chair of the meeting shall declare a nomination by an Eligible Shareholder to be invalid, and such nomination shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation, if:<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Shareholder Nominee(s) and/or the applicable Eligible Shareholder shall have breached its or their obligations under this Article XII, as determined by the Board of Directors or the Chair of the meeting, in each case, in its or their sole discretion; or<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Eligible Shareholder (or a qualified representative thereof) does not appear at the Annual Meeting to present any nomination pursuant to this Article XII.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any Shareholder Nominee who is included in the Corporation's proxy materials for a particular Annual Meeting of the Shareholders but either<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) withdraws from or becomes ineligible or unavailable for election at the Annual Meeting; or<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) does not receive at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the votes cast in favor of such Shareholder Nominee's election will be ineligible to be a Shareholder Nominee pursuant to this Article XII for the next two (2) Annual Meetings of the Shareholders.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Board of Directors shall have the exclusive power and authority to interpret the provisions of this Article XII of these Bylaws and make all determinations deemed necessary or advisable in connection with this Article XII. All such actions, interpretations and determinations that are done or made by the Board of Directors shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Corporation, the Shareholders and all other parties.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) No Shareholder shall be permitted to join more than one group of Shareholders to become an Eligible Shareholder for purposes of nominations pursuant to this Article XII per each Annual Meeting of the Shareholders.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) For the avoidance of doubt, this Article XII shall not prevent any Shareholder from nominating any person to the Board of Directors pursuant to and in accordance with Article XI of these Bylaws.<br>**Manner of Election of Directors.** |
|  | Except as otherwise provided in Article XIX or the Articles of Incorporation, each Director shall, except in a contested election, be elected by a majority of votes cast at any meeting of Shareholders for the election of Directors at which a quorum is present. In a contested election at which a quorum is present, the Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of Directors. An election shall be considered to be a contested election if, as of the date that is twenty-one (21) days prior to the date that the Corporation files its definitive proxy statement (regardless of whether or not thereafter revised or supplemented, and regardless of whether any notice of Shareholder business or nominations have been withdrawn or deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction), there are more nominees for election than positions on the Board of Directors to be filled by election at that meeting. |
|  | If an incumbent Director is not reelected in an uncontested election, the Director shall offer their resignation promptly to the Board of Directors. Within ninety (90) days following certification of the election results, the Board of Directors shall evaluate the relevant facts and circumstances and shall make a decision on whether to accept the tendered resignation. Any Director who tenders a resignation pursuant to this provision shall not participate in the Board of Directors' decision. In determining whether to accept the offered resignation, the Board of Directors shall consider any recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee or any committee responsible for the nomination of Directors, the factors considered by that committee and any additional information and factors that the Board of Directors believes to be relevant to the best interests of the Corporation and its Shareholders. |

| **Article XIV.** | **Powers of Directors.** |
|  | All corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed under the direction of, the Board of Directors, subject to any limitation set forth in the Articles of Incorporation, and so far as this delegation of authority is not inconsistent with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia or with the Articles of Incorporation. |
| **Article XV.** | **Executive and Other Committees.** |
|  | The Board of Directors, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board, may designate two or more of its number to constitute an Executive Committee. If a quorum is present at a duly noticed or regular meeting of the Committee, the Committee may act upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the Committee members present. |
|  | When the Board of Directors is not in session, the Executive Committee shall have and may exercise all of the authority of the Board of Directors except that the Executive Committee shall not (a) approve or recommend to Shareholders action that Virginia Stock Corporation Act requires to be approved by Shareholders; (b) fill vacancies on the Board of Directors or any of its Committees or elect officers; (c) amend the Articles of Incorporation; (d) adopt, amend or repeal these Bylaws; (e) approve a plan of merger not requiring Shareholder approval; (f) authorize or approve a distribution, except according to a general formula or method prescribed by the Board of Directors; or (g) authorize or approve the issuance or sale or contract for sale of shares, or determine the designation and rights, preferences, and limitations of a class or series of shares, except that the Board of Directors may authorize the Executive Committee to do so subject to the limits, if any, prescribed by the Board of Directors. If the Executive Committee is created for any designated purpose, its authority shall be limited to such purpose. The Executive Committee shall report its action to the Board of Directors. Regular and special meetings of the Executive Committee may be called and held subject to the same requirements with respect to time, place, if any, and notice as are specified in these Bylaws for regular and special meetings of the Board of Directors. |
|  | Members of the Executive Committee shall receive such compensation for attendance at meetings as may be fixed by the Board of Directors. |
|  | The Board of Directors likewise may appoint from their number, from the directors of affiliated corporations or from officers of the Corporation other Committees from time to time, the number composing such Committees and the power conferred upon the same to be subject to the foregoing exceptions for an Executive Committee but otherwise as determined by vote of the Board of Directors provided that any Committee empowered to exercise the authority of the Board of Directors shall be composed only of members of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may designate one or more Directors to represent the Corporation at meetings of committees of the Board of Directors of affiliated corporations. Members of such committees, and Directors so designated, shall receive such compensation for attendance at meetings as may be fixed by the Board of Directors. |
| **Article XVI.** | **Meetings of Directors and Quorum.** |
|  | Meetings of the Board of Directors may be held within or without the Commonwealth of Virginia and at times fixed by resolution of the Board, or upon call of the Chair of the Board, the Vice Chair (if any), the Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President, the Corporate |

|  | Secretary or three or more Directors, and the Corporate Secretary or an Assistant Corporate Secretary shall give not less than twenty-four (24) hours' notice by letter, electronic transmission or telephone (or in person) of all meetings of the Directors, provided that notice need not be given of regular meetings held at times and places, if any, fixed by resolution of the Board. |
|  | The Board of Directors may permit any or all directors to participate in a regular or special meeting by, or conduct the meeting through the use of, any means of communication by which all directors participating may simultaneously hear each other during the meeting. |
|  | A written waiver of notice signed by the Director entitled to such notice, whether before or after the date of the meeting, shall be equivalent to giving notice. A Director who attends or participates in a meeting shall be deemed to have waived timely and proper notice of the meeting unless the Director, at the beginning of the meeting or promptly upon their arrival, objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting and does not thereafter vote for or assent to action taken at the meeting. |
|  | A majority of the number of Directors fixed at the time in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation or such greater number as may be specifically provided in the Virginia Stock Corporation Act shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a lesser number may adjourn any meeting from time to time, and the meeting may be reconvened and held without further notice so long as the new date, time and place, if any, is announced at the meeting prior to adjournment. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a majority of the members present shall decide any question brought before such meeting, except as otherwise provided by law, by the Articles of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws. |
| **Article XVII.** | **Action Without a Meeting.** |
|  | Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the Directors, or any action which may be taken at a meeting of the Directors or of a Committee, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing (which may be in any number of counterparts), setting forth the action so to be taken, shall be signed by all of the Directors, or all of the members of the Committee, as the case may be, either before or after such action is taken, and delivered to the Corporate Secretary. A Director's consent may be withdrawn by a revocation signed by the Director and delivered to the Corporate Secretary prior to the delivery to the Corporate Secretary of unrevoked written consents signed by all of the Directors. For purposes of this Article XVII, the signing and delivery of the written consent (or revocation of a Director's consent) may be accomplished by electronic transmission. When all Directors have signed and delivered a written consent to the Corporate Secretary, such consents shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote. |
| **Article XVIII.** | **Director Resignation and Removals.** |
|  | Any Director may resign at any time either from the Board of Directors or from any Committee of which the Director is a member by giving a written resignation to the Board of Directors or its Chair, or to the Vice Chair (if any), or to the Chief Executive Officer or to the Corporate Secretary or, in the case of a resignation from a Committee, to the chair of the Committee. Any such resignation shall take effect upon receipt of the written resignation by one of the specified recipients, unless a later effective time is specified in the resignation. Unless otherwise specified in the resignation or in these Bylaws, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Any resignation delivered under Article XIII shall require acceptance to make it effective. |
|  | At any meeting called for the purpose of removing a Director, the Shareholders may, with the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, remove any Director from office for cause. The Shareholders may then elect a successor to a Director removed from office if such purpose was included in the meeting notice. The nomination and election of such successor shall be accomplished in the same manner provided in these Bylaws for nomination and election of Directors at an Annual Meeting of the Shareholders. The Board of Directors, by vote of a majority of the whole Board, may remove from any Committee of the Board any member of that Committee, with or without cause. |

| **Article XIX.** | **Board Vacancies.** |
|  | Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, if the office of any Director shall become vacant, the Directors, at the time in office, whether or not a quorum, may by majority vote of the Directors then in office, choose a successor who shall hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Vacancies resulting from an increase in the number of Directors shall be filled in the same manner. If the vacancy results from the removal of a Director by the Shareholders as provided in Article XVIII, the vacancy may also be filled by the Shareholders as provided in such Article. |
