The Offering

Issuer
Dominion Energy, Inc.

Securities Offered
800,000 shares of 4.65% Series B Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual
Preferred Stock, without par value, with a $1,000 liquidation preference per share.

Further Issuances
We may, at any time and from time to time, without notice to, or the consent of, holders of
the Series B Preferred Stock, elect to issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock,
and all such additional shares would be deemed to form a single series with the Series B
Preferred Stock offered hereby.

Dividends
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock, when, as and if declared by the Board, will be
payable on the $1,000 liquidation preference per share, on a cumulative basis, semi-annually
in arrears on the 15th day of June and December of each year, commencing on June 15,
2020. Dividend payment dates are subject to adjustment for business days. Dividends on the
Series B Preferred Stock will accumulate daily and be cumulative from, and including, the
date of original issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock or the most recent dividend payment
date through which dividends have been paid.
The amount of the dividend per share of Series B Preferred Stock will be calculated for each
dividend period (or portion thereof) on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months.

Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will be cumulative (i) whether or not we have
earnings, (ii) whether or not the payment of such dividends is then permitted under Virginia
law, (iii) whether or not such dividends are authorized or declared and (iv) whether or not any
agreements we are party to prohibit the current payment of dividends, including any
agreement relating to our indebtedness. Accordingly, if the Board does not declare a dividend
on the Series B Preferred Stock payable in respect of any dividend period before the related

dividend payment date, such dividend shall accumulate and an amount equal to such
accumulated dividend shall become payable out of funds legally available therefor upon the
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our affairs (or earlier redemption of such shares of
Series B Preferred Stock), to the extent not paid prior to such liquidation, dissolution or
winding-up or earlier redemption, as the case may be. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of
interest, will be payable on any dividend payment that may be in arrears on the Series B
Preferred Stock.

Dividend Rate
The initial dividend rate for the Series B Preferred Stock from and including the date of
original issuance to, but excluding, December 15, 2024 (the "First Call Date") will be 4.65%
per annum of the $1,000 liquidation preference per share. On and after the First Call Date, the
dividend rate on the Series B Preferred Stock for each Reset Period (as defined herein) will
be equal to the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Dividend
Determination Date (as defined herein) plus a spread of 2.993%.

"Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate" means, as of any Reset Dividend Determination Date, as
applicable, (i) an interest rate (expressed as a decimal) determined to be the per annum rate
equal to the arithmetic mean, for the immediately preceding week, of the daily yields to
maturity for U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity of five years from the next Reset Date
(as defined herein) and trading in the public securities markets or (ii) if the H.15(519) is not
published during the week preceding the Reset Dividend Determination Date, or does not

contain such yields, then the rate will be determined by interpolation between the arithmetic
mean, for the immediately preceding week, of the daily yields to maturity for each of the two
series of U.S. Treasury securities trading in the public securities markets, (A) one maturing

as close as possible to, but earlier than, the Reset Date following the next succeeding Reset
Dividend Determination Date, and (B) the other maturity as close as possible to, but later
than, the Reset Date following the next succeeding Reset Dividend Determination Date, in
each case as published in the most recent H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant
Maturities" as the yield on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant
maturity. If the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate cannot be determined pursuant to the methods
described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, then the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate will be the same
interest rate determined for the immediately preceding Reset Dividend Determination Date,
or if this sentence is applicable with respect to the first Reset Dividend Determination Date,
1.657%.

"H.15(519)" means the statistical release designated as such, or any successor publication,

published by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System.

"Most recent H.15(519)" means the H.15(519) published closest in time but prior to the close

of business on the second business day prior to the applicable Reset Date.

"Reset Date" means the First Call Date and each date falling on the fifth anniversary of the

preceding Reset Date.

"Reset Dividend Determination Date" means, in respect of any Reset Period, the day falling

two business days prior to the beginning of such Reset Period.

"Reset Period" means the period from and including the First Call Date to, but excluding, the

next following Reset Date and thereafter each period from and including each Reset Date to,
but excluding, the next following Reset Date.

S-9
Table of Contents

We will give notice of the relevant Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as soon as practicable to
the Transfer Agent (as defined herein) and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock.

The applicable dividend rate for each Reset Period will be determined by a calculation agent,
as of the applicable Reset Dividend Determination Date. Promptly upon such determination,
the calculation agent will notify us of the dividend rate for the Reset Period. The calculation

agent's determination of any dividend rate, and its calculation of the amount of dividends for
any dividend period beginning on or after the First Call Date will be on file at our principal
offices, will be made available to any holder of the Series B Preferred Stock upon request
and will be final and binding in the absence of manifest error.

Restrictions on Dividends
We will not declare or pay, or set aside for payment, full dividends on the Series B Preferred
Stock or any Parity Stock (as defined herein) for any dividend period unless the full
cumulative dividends have been declared and paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof has been set aside) on the Series B Preferred Stock and any such Parity
Stock through the most recently completed dividend period for each such security. When
dividends are not paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for payment thereof set aside) in full
on the Series B Preferred Stock or any Parity Stock having the same restrictions on the
declaration and payment of dividends as the Series B Preferred Stock, all dividends declared
for such dividend period with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock
shall be declared on a pro rata basis. Any portion of such dividends not declared and paid (or
declared and a sum sufficient for payment thereof set aside) that are payable upon the
Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock in respect of such dividend period on such
dividend payment date shall accumulate, and an amount equal to such undeclared portion of
such dividends shall become payable out of funds legally available for the payment of
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/715957/000119312519305049/d800919d424b2.htm[12/3/2019 2:43:25 PM]

dividends upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up (or earlier redemption of such shares
of Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock), to the extent not paid prior to such
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or earlier redemption. See "Description of the Series B
Preferred Stock--Dividends."

During any dividend period, so long as any Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding,
unless the full cumulative dividends have been declared and paid (or declared and a sum
sufficient for the payment thereof has been set aside) on the Series B Preferred Stock and any

Parity Stock through the most recently completed dividend period, we will not: (i) declare or
pay dividends on our common stock or any other Junior Stock (as defined herein), other than
a dividend payable solely in Junior Stock, or (ii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire for
consideration, directly or indirectly, any Junior Stock, including

S-10
Table of Contents
our common stock, subject, in each case, to certain exceptions. See "Description of the Series

B Preferred Stock--Dividends."

The Series B Preferred Stock will rank junior as to payment of dividends to any class or
series of our Senior Stock (as defined herein) that we may issue in the future. If at any time
we have failed to pay, on the applicable payment date, accumulated dividends on any class or
series of Senior Stock, we may not pay any dividends on the outstanding Series B Preferred

Stock or redeem or otherwise repurchase any shares of Series B Preferred Stock until we
have paid or set aside for payment the full amount of the unpaid dividends on the Senior
Stock that must, under the terms of such securities, be paid before we may pay dividends on,
or redeem or repurchase, the Series B Preferred Stock.

No dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall be declared and paid (or declared and a
sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside) at such time as the terms and provisions of
any agreement of ours, including any agreement relating to our indebtedness, prohibits such
declaration and payment (or declaration and setting aside a sum sufficient for the payment
thereof) under any such agreement or if the declaration and payment (or the declaration and

setting aside a sum sufficient for the payment thereof) would constitute a breach of or default
under any such agreement or be restricted or prohibited by law. See "Risk Factors--
Agreements to which we are or may become a party, including the purchase contract and
pledge agreement relating to our 2019 Series A Equity Units, may restrict our ability to pay
dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock."

Payment of dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock is subject to certain other restrictions

described under "Description of the Series B Preferred Stock--Dividends."
