Assumptions
For the purposes of preparing the above chart, the following assumptions, among others, have been made:
| (i) | in relation to the initial forecast, the forecast error stays constant over the life of the Bonds and is equal to an overestimate of electricity usage of 5% (3.53 standard deviations from mean) or 15% (16.27 standard deviations from mean); |
| (ii) | the servicer makes timely and accurate semi-annually true-up adjustments (at least quarterly beginning 12 months prior to the scheduled final payment date of the latest maturing tranche), but makes no interim true-up adjustments; |
| (iii) | for purposes of setting the initial deferred fuel cost charge, the net charge-off rate as a percentage of billed revenue and average days sales outstanding per customer bill is each assumed to equal Virginia Power’s average (mean) for 2023; |
| (iv) | for purposes of setting a subsequent deferred fuel cost charge, and for purposes of calculating actual deferred fuel cost charge collections, net charge-off rate as a percentage of billed revenue and the average days sales outstanding per customer bill are both held constant at Virginia Power’s maximum (most unfavorable) for 2023; |
| (v) | during the first payment period, interest will accrue for approximately 9 months and the deferred fuel cost charge will be collected for approximately 9 months; |
| (vi) | there is no acceleration of the final maturity date of the Bonds; and |
| (vii) | the issuance date of the Bonds is February 14, 2024. |
