Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 10, 2016, Dominion Resources, Inc. (Dominion), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Virginia Electric and Power Company (Virginia Power), Dominion Gas Holdings, LLC (Dominion Gas) and Questar Gas Company (Questar Gas), entered into a $5,000,000,000 Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (Core Credit Facility) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Bank of America, N.A., Barclays Bank PLC and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agents, and other lenders named therein.

Also on November 10, 2016, Dominion, Virginia Power, Dominion Gas and Questar Gas, entered into a $500,000,000 Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (LOC Facility and, together with the Core Credit Facility, the Amended and Restated Credit Facilities) with Keybank National Association, as Administrative Agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as Syndication Agent, and other lenders named therein.

The purpose of the Amended and Restated Credit Facilities, which amend and restate their respective predecessor agreements in their entirety, is to add Questar Gas, which became a subsidiary of Dominion in September 2016, as a borrower and to make certain administrative and related changes prompted by the addition of Questar Gas as a borrower. The Amended and Restated Credit Facilities can be used by Dominion and the co-borrowers to support bank borrowings and the issuance of commercial paper, as well as to support the issuance of letters of credit. The changes introduced in the Amended and Restated Credit Facilities otherwise do not affect the economic terms of the credit facilities with regard to Dominion. The changes are not expected to have any impact on the annual cost or availability of funds to Dominion. The full amount of the Amended and Restated Credit Facilities remains available to Dominion less any amounts due to borrowings by co-borrowers Virginia Power, Dominion Gas and Questar Gas and subject to any sub-limits for Dominion agreed to among Dominion and the co-borrowers from time to time. The Amended and Restated Credit Facilities mature in April 2020, unless extended.

The foregoing descriptions of the Core Credit Facility and the LOC Facility do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete texts of such agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
