NOTICE OF MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO AMEND THE BYLAWS OF UNITED POWER, INC.
NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE BYLAWS OF UNITED POWER, INC.
500 COOPERATIVE WAY, BRIGHTON, COLORADO 80603.
The Board of Directors proposes to amend the Bylaws of United Power, Inc. (United Power) as follows:
- Replace the word “nonprofit” with “not-for-profit” because there is a legal and operational distinction between the two types of organizations and United Power is a not-for-profit.

- Include language that provides a deadline for a challenge to any election of directors. Notice of the deadline will provide guidance to members and staff on how to handle any challenges to an election. Clarity in the rules will improve the cooperative’s operational efficiency.
A complete redline of the proposed changes is available on the cooperative’s website at www.unitedpower.com, or members may obtain a hardcopy at any United Power office or via mail by calling 303-637-1300 and requesting that a copy be made available to them at the address on file with the cooperative.
Pursuant to Article 11, Section 8 of the Bylaws of United Power Inc., you are hereby notified that the Board of Directors of United Power proposes to adopt the amendment(s) to United Power’s bylaws at a meeting of the Board to be held on August 27, 2025, unless a written petition is filed at United Power’s headquarters before close of business on August 25, 2025, signed by 100 or more members, protesting the proposed amendments.

Commencing on October 31, 2024, and continuing through April 30, 2025, UNITED POWER, INC. (hereafter “United Power” or “the cooperative”), will make a final attempt to pay the unclaimed retirements of capital credits to its former members who were served by the cooperative prior to and through December 31, 2020.
