officers, employees, and agents of the 

 cooperative. 



Board members serve on a rotating 

 basis. At the first annual meeting, 

 two directors were elected for a term 

 of 3 years, two for 2 years, and two 

 for a term of 1 year. Annually, there- 

 after, two directors have been chosen 

 to serve 3 -year terms. This arrange- 

 ment is designed to give continuity to 

 the board. 



Whenever a vacancy occurs on the 

 board, other than from expiration of 

 a term of office, the remaining mem- 

 bers appoint a member to serve as 

 a director until the next annual meeting. 



At least three directors are neces- 

 sary to constitute a quorum for trans- 

 acting business. 



Some members of An Sable peel their wood 

 before shipping it to market. Compared to 

 rough wood, peeled wood dries faster and is 

 cheaper to haul, and pulp mills prefer it.
