solidated cooperative would have the option to opt out of this regulation in the future. Currently, we believe the oversight of the Corporation Commission in the early stages of a new cooperative would be a good safe- guard for our members and would not impede our growth.
Would the boards of the cooperatives be combined? State statute requires that each coop-
erative’s district be equitably represented. Initially, the boards would be combined with the possibility of altering the number of board members 707120602 in the future to ensure equal representation.
How do the rate structures of the two cooperatives compare?
The two cooperatives vary slightly in rate structure, levels of commercial mem- bership for example, but their base rate per kWh is very similar. Rate structuring is part of the extensive third-party analysis being done at this time. The rate analysis is being performed by Guernsey, an Oklahoma City- based engineering firm.

Canadian Valley Electric Cooperative and Central Rural Electric Cooperative are evaluating whether we believe that together we can better meet the current and future expectations of our members, bring more value to you our
owners and be a better servant. That’s why we were created 75 years ago. We must still expect this of ourselves now and in the future. If we see an oppor- tunity to do this for you better together, the decision to proceed will lie with the members of the two electric coopera- tives. As it should be.
