4. Will I get a bill from Lower Electric
each month?
You will not get a bill from Lower Electric. You will get a
bill from the new provider that you choose and in most cases
this is the only change that will occur at all. In most cases,
the new bill will show what you would have paid staying with
your former provider and what you are paying with the new
provider, showing you the amount of savings each month.

5. What will happen if the company that I
switch to leaves Illinois or goes out of business?
The providers that Lower Electric works with are solid
companies that have been in business for a long time. The
likelihood of any of these companies leaving Illinois or going
out of business is very small. However, in the unlikely event
of any of these companies leaving Illinois or going out of
business, your electric and/or gas service would automatically
shift to the local utility. In most cases, this would be the
utility that is currently providing your service.

6. How long is my contract with you, and
is it renewable?
There is no contract with Lower Electric, LLC. Your
contract would be the company that you switched your electric
and/or natural gas to. In most cases, your contract would last
for one year and at the end of the term, it would be up to you
to determine whether you would like to renew.

7. Does Lower Electric provide annual
review and recommendations to my company about lower cost
alternatives, or is this a one time offer only?
Prior to the end of your contract with the provider that
you have chosen, Lower Electric will contact you to determine
the best course of action for you. In addition, Lower Electric
will continuously inform you of ways to cut your utility
costs.

8. Is there any cost for me for Lower
Electric's ongoing consulting services?
There is no cost for our consulting services. If however,
we determine that you have been overcharged for your utility
costs, we charge you a contingency fee of any refunds or
credits of past and future savings that you receive as a
result of our efforts. There is no fee for switching you to
another provider.

9. Do I save 100% of the available savings
or does part of it go to pay a commission to Lower
Electric?
Lower Electric saves you 100% of the available savings that
are offered by the provider. Lower Electric is compensated for
our effort by the providers.

10. What do I need to provide you to go
forward? Am I under any obligation once we go forward?
In order for Lower Electric to quote your company on its
electric and gas savings, we need to see a recent electric
bill and two summer and two winter gas bills. You can fax it
to us at 847-498-4873 (outside of Illinois: 866-329-8845) or
mail it to:
Lower Electric, LLC.
1307 Shermer

you decide you are no longer interested.
