Dear ____________________ Resident/Small Commercial Customer,

Miami Valley Communications Council is providing you the opportunity to join other residents to save money on the electricity you use. Savings are possible through governmental aggregation, where your community officials bring together citizens to gain group buying power for the purchase of electricity from a retail electric generation provider certified by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio. Your community voters approved this program in May 2003.

After researching competitive electricity pricing options for you, MVCC has chosen __________________________________________ to provide you with electric generation through __________________________________________. There is no cost for enrollment and you will not be charged a switching fee. You do not need to do anything to participate.

As a member of this aggregation, your electricity supplies will be priced at ______________________________ or approximately ____________ below your Price to Compare. Your Price to Compare is essentially the price you pay for electric generation from the utility and consists of generation and transmission related components, which are the costs associated with generating the power and delivering it through the transmission system.

To estimate what your savings per kilowatt-hour (KWH) will be through this program, locate your Price to Compare on your electric bill. Divide your Price to Compare by 100 then __________________________________________________ to estimate your savings per KWH. Multiply that number by your total monthly usage to determine how much you can expect to save each month you use the same amount of electricity.

You will see your electric savings after your enrollment has been completed and your switch has been finalized – approximately 30 - 45 days, depending upon your meter read date. Of course, you are not obligated to participate in the MVCC electric governmental aggregation program. If you wish to be excluded from the program and remain a full-service customer of your local electric utility, do nothing. _If you would like to join the program, you must return the attached “opt-in” form by____________,2022. You will receive a notice at least every three years asking if you wish to remain in the program. You can leave the program at any time.

After you become a participant in this governmental aggregation program, your local electric distribution utility will send you a notice confirming your selection of ________________________ as your electric generation provider. As required by law, this letter will inform you of your option to cancel your contract with ________________________ within seven days of its postmark. To remain in MVCC's governmental aggregation program, you do not need to take any action when this letter arrives.

Your local electric distribution utility will continue to maintain the system that delivers power to your home or business – no new poles or wires will be built by ________________________. You will continue to receive a single, easy-to-read bill from your local electric utility that includes with your ________________________ charges included. The only thing you will notice is savings.

If you have any questions, please call ________________________________________ toll-free at 1-866-XXX--XXXX, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sincerely,
