Beck assumed a wholesale rate <br />increase of 6.9%. In recent discussion with Connexus/GRE, the rate increase is more in <br />the 4.9% increase. Although the details of the increase are still unknovv~z, this 2% <br />difference in initial vs. projected wholesale rate is approximately a $220,000 swing. <br />In 2008 GRE is projected to "simplify" the rate structure by going back to 1 rate instead <br />of a base and growth rate. The attached 3 sheets reflect the concept of the 2008 GRE <br />proposed rate structure. I will explain in detail at our meeting how this rate will work. <br />
