(a)    No assignment shall impair any security given by Westmoreland hereunder; provided that if, as of the time of such assignment, Westmoreland has posted an irrevocable, direct pay letter of credit with Dominion pursuant to Section 11.2 (a) (Form of Security), an assignee may provide a letter of credit in the same amount and from equivalent or better issuer quality or provide a corporate guaranty subject to the provisions of Section 11.2(c) in substitution for the letter of credit theretofore posted by Westmoreland hereunder; and

STATUTORY AND REGULATORY CHANGES
16.1    Disallowance.  The Parties recognize and hereby agree that if any federal, state or municipal government or regulatory authority, including, without limitation, the SCC or the NCUC, should for any reason enter an order, modify its rules, or take any action whatsoever, having the effect of disallowing Dominion the recovery from its customers of all or any portion of the payments for  Substitute Energy hereunder (hereinafter referred to as the "Disallowance") (except where such disallowance is due to Dominion’s failure to seek recovery or comply with procedural requirements governing recovery of such costs), then:
a)    If the Disallowance occurs for payments made after the Effective Date, all future payments for Substitute Energy shall not exceed the amount unaffected by the Disallowance.  Further, Westmoreland shall repay the full amount of the Disallowance with Interest by one (1) year from the date of such Disallowance.  The Parties obligate themselves to all good faith efforts to establish, if practicable, an appeal and overruling of the Disallowance or a superseding order, approval of modified rules or tariffs, or other action so as to allow timely resumption of full, or failing that, adjusted payments hereunder.

Further, absent the prior agreement in writing by both Parties, the standard of review for changes to the rates, terms or conditions of this Agreement proposed by a Party, a non-party or the FERC acting sua sponte shall be the "public interest" application of the "just and reasonable" standard of review set forth in United Gas Pipe Line Co. v. Mobile Gas Service Corp., 350 U.S. 332 (1956) and Federal Power Commission v. Sierra Pacific Power Co., 350 U.S. 348 (1956), and clarified by Morgan Stanley Capital Group, Inc. v. Public Util. Dist.

PRICING  

		
	I.
	VARIABLE ENERGY PRICING:

For any Substitute Energy up to the Substitute Energy Cap, the Energy Purchase Price per kWh for Substitute Energy shall be equal to sum of the Escalating Energy Component and the Non-Escalating Energy Component where:

The initial "Escalating Energy Component" equals 0.636 cents/kWh for the period April 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018.  This price shall be increased or decreased, as appropriate on each April 1st thereafter, as follows:  
    
0.636 cents/kWh shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Gross Domestic Product Implicit Price Deflator Index (the "GDPIPD") for the previous Year (as specified by the US Department of Commerce, or such other organization as the Parties may mutually agree), and the denominator of which is the GDPIPD for Year 2016.

The "Non-Escalating Energy Component" equals 0.900 cents/kWh. 

		
	II.
	FIXED PRICING 

The "Fixed Payment" shall be payable monthly and shall be the product of (i) 200,000 kW, (ii) the Fixed Unit Price, and (iii) the number of Days in the Month.

Each of BPEC, WE, WP and VEPCO are a “Party” and are, collectively, the “Parties.”
RECITALS
WHEREAS, BPEC and WE are parties to that certain ISDA Master Agreement, including the Schedule and Credit Support Annex thereto (the “ISDA Master”) and those certain confirmations for Firm LD Power  as defined in the ISDA Master) dated March 27, 2014 and as amended June 16, 2014 (such confirmations are the “BP Contracts”);
WHEREAS, WP and VEPCO are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Substitute Energy Purchase Agreement dated as of September 25, 2017 but effective as of the Effective Date, a copy of which is set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “PPA”), whereby VEPCO purchases energy from WP on the terms and conditions set forth therein;
WHEREAS, WP originally intended to supply the energy requirements of the PPA with generation that it owned;
WHEREAS, due to pricing, it became more efficient for WP to meet its requirements to supply VEPCO with energy from the market instead of from its owned generation;
WHEREAS, in order to take advantage of the efficiencies, WE, as a parent of WP and for the benefit of WP, entered into the BP Contracts; and
WHEREAS, it has now become more efficient for both WP and WE to assign the PPA to BP on the terms and conditions set forth herein and to cancel and terminate the BP Contracts.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and the WE Payment (as hereafter defined), the Parties hereby agrees as follows:

	c.
	WP and VEPCO are each released and discharged from all obligations to each other with respect to the PPA and their respective rights against each other thereunder are cancelled, whether such obligations or rights arose before, on, or after the Effective Date; provided, however, that such release and discharge of VEPCO shall not affect any rights of BPEC pursuant to subsection (b), above, and such release and discharge of WP shall not affect any rights of VEPCO against BPEC to pursuant to subsection (b), above; and

		
	d.
	In connection with this Assignment and the PPA, VEPCO and BPEC agree and acknowledge that the PPA constitutes a Commodity Trade Option as defined by the CFTC.

2.PPA Amendments.  
		
	a.
	All payments to be made by VEPCO to BPEC under the PPA shall be made pursuant to the terms and conditions of the PPA but shall be directed to the following BPEC account: JP Morgan Chase Bank, NA, ABA: [XXXXXXXX], Account Number:  [XXXXXXXX], or to such other account as BPEC may from time to time specify in writing to VEPCO.

3.Termination of BP Contracts.  Effective as of the Effective Date:
		
	a.
	On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in exchange for a payment of $10,130,533.00 from WE to BPEC (the “WE Payment”), the BP Contracts are cancelled, terminated and of no further force and effect; provided, however, that any rights, liabilities or obligations of WE or BPEC with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed on or prior to the Effective Date shall remain with WE or BPEC, as applicable;

		
	b.
	WE and BPEC are each released and discharged from further obligations to each other with respect to the BP Contracts and their respective rights against each other thereunder are cancelled; provided, however, that such release and discharge shall not affect any rights, liabilities or obligations of WE or BPEC with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed on or prior to the Effective Date, and all such payments and obligations shall be paid or performed by WE or BPEC in accordance with the terms of the BP Contracts; and

	d.
	In addition to the setoff of the WE Payment, WE hereby authorizes, consents and agrees that BPEC may setoff $5,911,200.00 of the Collateral Amount to satisfy WE’s payment or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed on or prior to the Effective Date (the “Final Payment”);

		
	e.
	BPEC hereby covenants that, within three (3) business days after the Effective Date, it shall transfer all of the remaining Collateral Amount in its possession (net of the WE Payment and the Final Payment) and release the letter of credit to WE pursuant to the provisions for returning collateral contained in the Master Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall limit BPEC’s rights to the Exposure Amount pursuant to the ISDA Master.
