The acreage and boundaries of such parcels shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Department and the grantees. Such acreage and boundaries, and the value thereof, shall be approved by the Director of the Department of General Services. The value of such parcels shall be no more than the value, or the remainder interest value if conveyed subject to a life estate, of the 36 acres, more or less, contemplated in § 2 hereof to be received in exchange therefor by the Department.

§ 2. That in exchange for such conveyance, the Department is authorized to receive, subject to the approval of the Governor and in a form approved by the Attorney General and subject to § 2.2-1149 of the Code of Virginia, all the respective right, title, and interest in 36 acres, more or less, as owned by Muffin Trodding, LLC and Yancey Hardtimes, LLC, their successors and assigns, located in the interior of the property known as Biscuit Run.
