DOMINION RESOURCES, INC.

LEADERSHIP STOCK OPTION PLAN

FOR SALARIED EMPLOYEES

Amended and Restated effective July 20, 2001

     1. Purpose. The purpose of this Dominion Resources, Inc. Leadership Stock Option Plan for Salaried Employees is to encourage ownership of Company Stock by all salaried employees of Dominion Resources, Inc. and the Dominion Companies through the grant of nonstatutory stock options. It is believed that giving salaried employees an opportunity to acquire Company Stock under this Plan will motivate those employees to continue to promote the best interests of the Employers and enhance the Employers' long-term stability and financial success. It is also believed that the grant of Options to salaried employees under this Plan will strengthen the Employers' ability to attract and retain the best available personnel.

     2. Awards. Awards shall be made in the form of stock Options.

     3. Participation.

     (a) Eligibility. Options may be granted under the Plan to any full-time or part-time salaried employee of DRI or a Dominion Company. The Committee shall have the power and complete discretion to determine the employees who shall be granted Options under the Plan and the time or times at which Options shall be granted.

     (b) Ineligible Persons. "Employee" shall not include a person whose employment is covered by a collective bargaining agreement, or a person hired as an independent contractor, leased employee, consultant or a person otherwise designated by an Employer at the time of hire as not eligible to participate in or receive benefits under the Plan, even if such ineligible person is subsequently determined to be an "employee" by any governmental or judicial authority.

     (c) No Employment Rights. The grant of an Award shall not obligate an Employer to pay an employee any particular amount of compensation, to continue the employment of the employee after the grant or to make further grants to the employee at any time thereafter. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award shall affect the right of the Company to terminate the employment of any employee for cause or otherwise. Further, the adoption of this Plan shall not be deemed to give any employee or any other individual any right to be selected as a Participant or to be granted an Award.

     4. Stock Options. The Committee may make grants of Options to Participants. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement, in a form approved by the Committee. A Stock Option Agreement shall have the following terms and other terms and conditions specified by the Committee:

(a) Number of Option Shares Granted. The Stock Option Agreement shall state the number of shares of Company Stock covered by the Option.

(b) Expiration Date. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify the date on which the Option expires.

(c) Vesting Schedule. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify when the Options will be vested and may be exercised in whole or in part.

(d) Grant Price. The per share exercise price of each Option shall be at least 100% of the Fair Market Value of such shares on the Grant Date.

(e) Change of Control. An Option shall become fully vested and exercisable in the event of a Change of Control.

5. Treatment of Options Upon Termination of Employment. Except as provided below, an Option may not be exercised after the Participant's termination of employment with the Employer:

(a) Termination Due to Retirement. If the Participant takes Retirement, the Option becomes fully vested and exercisable and may be exercised until the earlier of (x) the third anniversary of the Participant's Retirement, or (y) the expiration date of the Option. Retirement means termination of employment with receipt of early or normal retirement benefits under the Dominion Resources Retirement Plan or another defined benefit retirement plan sponsored by the Employer.

(b) Termination Due to Long-Term Disability. If the Participant incurs a Long-Term Disability, the Option becomes fully vested and exercisable and may be exercised until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Participant's Long-Term Disability date (as described below), or (y) the expiration date of the Option. A Participant's Long-Term Disability date is the date of the Participant's eligibility for long-term disability benefits under the Employer's applicable long-term disability plan.

(c) Termination Due to Death. If the Participant dies while employed by the Employer, the Option becomes fully vested and exercisable and may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant's estate until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Participant's death, or (y) the expiration date of the Option. If the Participant dies within three years after his or her Retirement or within one year after his or her Long-Term Disability date, the personal representative of his or her estate may exercise the Option until the earliest of (x) 90 days after the Participant's death, (y) the third anniversary of the Participant's Retirement or the first anniversary of his or her Long-Term Disabilty date, or (z) the expiration date of the Option.

(d) Termination Other Than For Cause. If the Participant voluntarily terminates employment with the Employer or the Participant's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Employer for reasons other than "cause" (as defined below), the Participant may exercise the vested portion of the Option until the earlier of (x) 30 days after the Participant's termination of employment, or (y) the expiration date of the Option.

(e) Termination for Cause. If the Participant's employment is terminated by the Employer for "cause," the Option (both vested and unvested) shall terminate as of the date of notice of termination of employment and shall no longer be exercisable. The Committee determines whether a Participant has incurred an involuntary termination of employment for "cause," and the Committee's determination shall be binding for all purposes. "Cause" means:

(i) fraud or material misappropriation with respect to the business or assets of DRI or a Dominion Company;

(ii) persistent refusal or willful failure of the Participant to perform substantially his or her duties and responsibilities to the Employer, which continues after the Participant receives notice of such refusal or failure;

(iii) conviction of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude; or

(iv) the use of drugs or alcohol that interferes materially with the Participant's performance of his or her duties.

6. Method of Exercise of Options.

(a) Payment Upon Exercise. An Option shall be considered exercised under the Plan on the date written notice is given to DRI, advising of the exercise of a particular Option and transmitting payment in full of the Grant Price for the shares involved. The Grant Price shall be paid in cash or by delivery of instructions to a broker for a broker-assisted exercise under procedures established by the Committee.

(b) No Rights as Shareholder. Until the Option exercise is complete, including any Applicable Withholding Taxes, and DRI has issued a certificate for the shares of Company Stock acquired, the Participant shall have no shareholder rights with respect to the shares.

(c) Withholding of Taxes. Each Participant shall agree as a condition of the exercise of an Option, to make arrangements satisfactory to the Employer regarding the payment of Applicable Withholding Taxes. The Applicable Withholding Taxes may be paid in cash or the Employer may retain shares of Company Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value) equal to the Applicable Withholding Taxes.

7. Transferability of Options. Options shall not be transferable by a Participant except at death and may be exercised only by the Participant, except after the Participant's death. No Option may be assigned or subject to any encumbrance, pledge or charge of any nature.

8. Stock.

(a) Subject to subsection (b), an aggregate of ten million (10,000,000) shares of Company Stock, which shall be authorized, but unissued shares, is reserved for issuance under the Plan. Shares allocable to Options that expire, are forfeited, or otherwise terminate unexercised may again be added to the remaining number of shares of Company Stock available for grant as an Option under the Plan. Any shares of Company Stock withheld to pay Applicable Withholding Taxes will be added to the aggregate shares of Company Stock available for grant as an Option under the Plan.

(b) In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares, recapitalization or merger in which DRI is the surviving corporation or other change in DRI's capital stock (including, but not limited to, the creation or issuance to shareholders generally of rights, options or warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock of DRI), the number and kind of shares of stock or securities of DRI that are subject to the Plan and to Options then outstanding or to be granted under the Plan, the maximum number of shares or securities which may be delivered under the Plan, the Grant Price, the terms of Awards and other relevant provisions shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, whose determination shall be binding on all persons. If the adjustment would produce fractional shares with respect to any unexercised Option, the Committee may adjust appropriately the number of shares covered by the Option so as to eliminate the fractional shares.

(c) If DRI is a party to a consolidation or a merger in which DRI is not the surviving corporation, a transaction that results in the acquisition of substantially all of DRI's outstanding stock by a single person or entity, or a sale or transfer of substantially all of DRI's assets or if a Change of Control as defined in Section 16(c)(i) or (ii) otherwise occurs (a "Corporate Event"), then

(i) Except as provided in (ii) below, the Committee may take such actions with respect to outstanding Incentive Awards as the Committee deems appropriate.

(ii) For all Options that are outstanding at the time of a Corporate Event, the Committee shall ensure that Participants will receive with respect to those Options a value per Option that is determined by using one of the generally recognized option pricing models (each of which take into account the difference between the option exercise price and the market price of the stock, if any, plus other factors and assumptions which in combination produce an option value), including, but not limited to the Black-Scholes or the Roll, Geske & Whaley formulae for option valuation, that is the most favorable to Participants in the aggregate. Within the option valuation models, the Committee will use the acquisition price of DRI stock as the measure of its market price (if the Corporate Event involves the acquisition of DRI Stock) and will utilize any other reasonable factors and assumptions, including assumptions regarding stock volatility, risk free interest rates and dividend yield that, taken together, produce the largest value for each Option.

The payment under this Section 8(c)(ii) may be made in the form of cash or in DRI stock or of another publicly traded entity involved in the Corporate Event.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may take the actions set forth in Subsections (a) and (b) above without the consent of any Participant, and the Committee's determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons for all purposes.

9. Effective Date of the Plan. The effective date of the Plan is July 1, 2000. The effective date of this restatement is July 20, 2001.

10. Termination, Modification, Change. The DRI Board may amend, modify or terminate the Plan or any Option granted under the Plan. A termination or amendment of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the Participant, adversely affect a Participant's rights under an Award previously granted to him or her.

11. Administration of the Plan.

(a) The Committee shall administer the Plan. The Committee shall have general authority to impose any limitation or condition upon an Award that the Committee deems appropriate to achieve the objectives of the Award and the Plan.

(i) whether all or any part of an Award shall be adjusted upon a Change of Control;

(ii) whether a Long-Term Disability exists and when a Long-Term Disability begins;

(iii) conditions relating to the length of time a Participant must hold Company Stock received upon the exercise of an Option before disposing of it;

(iv) notice requirements relating to the sale of Company Stock acquired under the Plan; and

(v) any additional requirements relating to Awards that the Committee deems appropriate.

(b) The Committee may adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the Plan with respect to Participants. The interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive as to any Participant. The Committee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the Employer, and shall not incur any liability for any action taken in good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel. The Committee may delegate some or all of its authority under the Plan to any person or persons so long as such delegation is in writing.

(c) No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Option awarded under it. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each member of the Committee shall be indemnified and held harmless by DRI and the Dominion Companies against any cost or expense (including legal fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the approval of DRI) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such member's own fraud or bad faith Such indemnification shall be in addition to any other rights of indemnification these individuals may have under the bylaws of DRI.

12. Compliance with Other Laws and Regulations.

14. Interpretation. The terms of this Plan and all Awards shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.

15. Severability. In the event that any provision of the Plan shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions of the Plan shall be unaffected and shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction.
