Over the years, Corporate One has developed a host of products and services

that help credit unions reduce costs, improve efficiencies and better serve their

members. The development and delivery of four

solutions in particular illustrate Corporate One’s forward-thinking vision.

ACE is a turnkey solution that allows any credit union to make the leap to

electronic deposit automation. At the end of 2007, we had performed 669 ACE

installations, giving our members a powerful deposit automation solution that

creates efficiencies and saves them money. Plus, with a turnkey integration

with Diebold and NCR, credit unions can now pass items directly from their

image-enabled ATMs to their network for processing by ACE – effectively

reducing the cost of entry for end-to-end ATM deposit automation. ACE is truly

the #1 branch deposit capture and image database solution for credit

unions – period.

Alliance One, our national selective-surcharge ATM group, allows credit unions

to offer their cardholders surcharge-free ATM access at more than 4,500 ATMs

nationwide while driving more traffic – and interchange income – to credit

unions that own ATMs. Plus, through a partnership with Affiliated Computer

Services, Inc., Alliance One gives surcharge-free ATM access to residents in

five states who receive state-issued benefits and payments via debit cards.

Through this arrangement, Alliance One also promotes the advantages

of credit union membership to state benefits cardholders. In addition, the

partnership gives ATM access to federal benefits recipients nationwide.

Our track record of innovation spans asset/liability management as well. In

1996, Corporate One founded Primary Financial Company LLC (Primary

Financial) and developed SimpliCD, a turnkey certificate of deposit program that

lets credit unions easily invest in federally insured certificates of deposit, helping

them diversify their portfolio and increase their yield. Today, Primary Financial is

owned by the corporate credit union network and is one of the most successful

corporate credit union service organizations (CUSOs) in America.

We continue to innovate. As the discipline of enterprise-wide risk management

(EWRM) continues to grow throughout our movement and in corporations

worldwide, Corporate One is on the forefront of this trend. In 2005, we began

to transform our internal culture to adopt EWRM. Today, through our CU Risk

Manager solution, we’re leading the way to help our members understand

and adopt EWRM. CU Risk Manager provides credit unions with the tools

and expertise to develop an EWRM program, a comprehensive business plan,

attainable success metrics and detailed process accountability.

Our history of developing original and unique solutions for credit unions speaks

for itself. At Corporate One, innovation is one of our strengths.

In 2007, Alliance One added

nearly 600 ATMs, including 330

ATMs in Sheetz convenience

stores in six states.

Page 10: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

2007 will be remembered as a year of challenges. Dislocations in the credit

markets, the bursting of the housing bubble, questionable lending practices

and other issues led to much uncertainty and instability in the marketplace.

However, because Corporate One employs conservative investment

strategies and is structured to ensure adequate controls of responsibilities,

we were able to rise to those challenges. Corporate One was not totally

unaffected by these dislocated markets, as reflected in the unrealized loss

on our securities available for sale. But because we have always focused

on maintaining a high quality, diversified investment portfolio, our investment

and risk management strategies enabled us to weather the uncertainty and

experience one of our best years ever.

At Corporate One, we adhere to a conservative approach to portfolio

management. Our primary strategy is to invest in securities that maximize the

investment returns for our members while preserving capital and maintaining

liquidity and diversification.

Additionally, one of the stabilizing forces of our organization is that, as a full

service corporate, we generate much of our net income from service fees.

Our correspondent solutions serve as alternate income streams that are

reliable and less subject to market fluctuations.

Like our financial position, our reputation in the marketplace remains

financial and payments industries. Our board and management are valued

experts, many of whom sit on advisory groups and boards for other

leading organizations.

All of these strengths helped us achieve much success in 2007, including

net income that was $15.7 million, a $10 million increase over 2006. Also,

as a result of our strong earnings, our Reserves and Undivided Earnings

(RUDE) broke the $100 million mark last year. Contributing to this record

year was net interest income of $21.5 million, a $7.9 million increase over

2006 and the highest ever earned in our history.

Corporate One remains well positioned for the future and we continue to

focus on providing value to members through a cooperative model.

At Corporate One, our members, board, management and staff are valuable

assets in our success and in the success of the credit union movement.

As a member-owned organization, Corporate One’s decision-making is

guided by our volunteer board of directors. They serve as the sounding board

against which we measure our perspective and their vision helps us see the

future of the credit union movement and formulate strategies for success.

Those strategies are put into place by our skilled management team. Their

expertise in asset/liability management, risk management, accounting,

operations, marketing, information technology, human resources and facilities

management help to make Corporate One a leader in our industry.

Most importantly, our members share a common sense of belonging to an

organization that focuses on their needs and helps them better serve their

members. In 2007, more and more credit unions saw the value in Corporate

One membership. Forty-five new members joined Corporate One last year,

bringing our total to 793 members at the end of the year. Our diverse

membership includes 25 of the 100 largest credit unions in America†, as

well as more than 400 credit unions with less than $25 million in assets. No

matter what size or shape, credit unions belong with Corporate One.

Many of those new members joined Corporate One via Processing Alliance,

LLC, our CUSO co-owned with CU*Answers. This strategic partnership has

create many new relationships.

Corporate One continues to be a leader in supporting the credit union movement

around the neighborhood and around the globe. We continue to partner with

the World Council of Credit Unions to help credit unions and their members

in countries like Bolivia and China. Nationally, Corporate One is a platinum

sponsor of the National Credit Union Foundation and we recently increased our

investment in the Community Investment Fund to $10 million. On a regional

scale, in 2007, our staff raised more than $6,000 for the Ohio Credit Union

League Political Action Committee and we donated $5,000 to the Indiana Credit

Union Foundation. Locally, our management and staff held a blood drive for the

American Red Cross and donated more than $1,000 and 3,100 pounds of food

to the Mid-Ohio Food Bank.

Taken together, our people help make us a respected leader and one of the most

progressive corporate credit unions in America.

From the Chairman and the President

A letter to our members

For our credit union movement and for Corporate One, 2007 was

a remarkable year in many ways.

In some respects, it was Corporate One’s best year ever. We set

new records in net interest income, average assets, reserves and

undivided earnings and membership capital shares. Plus, with

the exception of 2003, when we sold Primary Financial to the

corporate credit union network, Corporate One has never had

higher annual net income than it did in 2007.

The synergy between our innovative products, our financial

position and our exceptional people has allowed us to put winning

strategies in place for our members. ACE is tangible evidence of

that fact. Back in 2003, our board and senior management saw

an opportunity to put credit unions on the cutting edge of the

electronic deposit processing environment by shouldering much

of the risk and cost of entry. By the end of 2007, member credit

unions were processing an average of 2.5 million items a month

– totaling an average of $1 billion each month – using ACE.

formulate our vision and help to put our strategies into place.

As we’ve outlined in this year’s report, Corporate One’s

strengths – innovation, safety and soundness, and our people

– set the stage for our success. But what separates us from

our peers is our ability to combine our strengths with our

unique vision for the future of the credit union movement.

To thrive as a progressive corporate, we will keep listening to

our members and considering their needs, both today and in

the future. We will continue to re-invest in new opportunities

for all our members – opportunities like some of the solutions

we’ve highlighted throughout this report.

The true test of how well we’re doing really rests in our

members’ ability to help their own members. As such, we

also believe in supporting political action committees that

advance the causes of credit unions. We also understand

2007 in Review2007 was a record year for Corporate One. Net income for 2007 was $15.7 million, a $10 million increase over 2006. This was the most we’ve ever earned in one year, excluding 2003 when we sold Primary Financial Company LLC (Primary Financial) and recognized a one-time gain. As a result of our strong earnings, our Reserves and Undivided Earnings (RUDE) broke the $100 million mark in 2007. Contributing to this record year was net interest income of $21.5 million, a $7.9 million increase over 2006 and the highest ever earned in our history. Throughout 2007 we offered competitive rates on our investments and great service. As a result, we were able to add 45 new members with combined assets of $6.4 billion. Deposits from these new members and increased deposits from our existing members boosted our average assets to $3.8 billion, the highest level in our history. This increase in average assets contributed to the increase in net interest income. We also implemented yield-enhancing strategies in 2007 to take advantage of the dislocation in the credit markets. These strategies boosted our net interest margins, which contributed greatly to the increase in net interest income. As we employed our yield-enhancing strategies, we redeemed certificates with U.S Central and sold securities, which resulted in a net gain of $549,000, compared to $215,000 in 2006. We did this to reposition our portfolios. Also, because our Partner members enjoy some of the best rates that we offer, we had 22 new Partner members capitalize with us in 2007. These new Partners invested $13.9 million in Membership Capital Shares (MCS), which drove our total MCS to its highest level ever. In addition to our competitive investment offerings, Corporate One is also focused on providing its members with valuable correspondent services that keep pace with emerging technology. We offer our members a complete package of correspondent solutions including ATM/check card programs, share draft processing and imaging, Automated Capture & Exchange (ACE) and electronic payment services. These services are designed to meet the changing needs of our members and enable them, regardless of size, to offer a complete line of financial services to their members. ACE continues to be the number one turnkey ATM/branch deposit capture and image database solution for credit unions. Corporate One invested considerable amounts of time and money over the past several years developing a solution that would truly meet the needs of credit unions. We considered the obvious advantages to our members such as reduced handling costs, faster clearing and return times, reduced float and reduced opportunities for fraud. However, we also developed a solution that would provide our members with increased reporting capabilities and a researchable database of images. Our members see the value in this service and at the end of 2007, we had completed 669 ACE installations. This was a 45% increase over 2006. As a result, net service fee income from ACE in 2007 increased 360.3% over 2006. Revenue from this product was the primary contributor to a $2.5 million increase in net service fee income over 2006. This increase boosted our total net service fee income to $10.5 million in 2007, the highest in our history.

Total operating expenses were $16.8 million in 2007, a 4.3% increase over 2006. This increase was fairly modest relative to our growth in revenue and was significantly less than the increases over the past several years. Since 2005, we have invested in the development and deployment of ACE, which involved establishing an infrastructure of people and technology capable of supporting this new product for the long term. Many of these infrastructure costs are fixed expenses, so now that we have completed the initial rollout period, we have reached a point where our revenue from this product is growing faster than our expenses.

In a typical year, other comprehensive income, which represents the change in the fair value of our securities available for sale, would not even be worth discussing. Rarely do the fair values of our securities ever vary in any meaningful way. However, 2007 will be remembered as a year of unprecedented widening of credit spreads, which resulted in unrealized losses on many of our securities available for sale. What started as unsettled conditions in the mortgage markets, quickly turned to concerns about liquidity, causing all credit-related securities to experience deterioration

in spreads and, hence, in fair values. Because of these conditions, we ended 2007 with an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $74 million. We take the responsibility of investing our members’ money very seriously. As a result, we are careful to invest in securities of very high credit quality. Given the strong credit quality of our securities and our ability and intent to hold these securities until the anticipated recovery, these fair-value adjustments are expected to reverse as the credit markets stabilize or the securities approach their maturity date. Capital PositionOur members and prospective members review our capital as part of their evaluation of our safety and soundness. Since December 31, 2006, our total capital, which includes RUDE, MCS and paid-in capital (PIC), increased approximately $26.5 million, or 13.1% to $228.2 million at December 31, 2007. This increase was due to strong earnings, which boosted RUDE to over $100 million in 2007 for the first time in Corporate One’s history. Additionally, we received membership capital from 22 new Partner members in 2007. This commitment by so many credit unions to capitalize with us demonstrates that credit unions find value in their partnership with Corporate One.

We understand the importance of adequate capital; however, we also believe it is important to effectively utilize our capital for the benefit of our members. Accordingly, we have a strategy to grow our balance sheet, within certain regulatory parameters, whether it is through funding provided by increased member deposits or increased use of borrowings. In 2007, we continued to be successful in this effort and our average assets increased $436.2 million or 12.9% over 2006. The benefit of this strategy is the opportunity to earn income on these additional assets, which in turn allows us to continue to grow and pay competitive rates. We continue to use our asset/liability strategy to maximize our return on equity, while adhering to our own risk constraints and regulatory limits. As of December 31, 2007, our regulatory capital ratio was 5.99%, which is more than adequate based on our operations and the risks involved in our business and is well above the minimum regulatory level of 5%.

Net Interest IncomeWe are highly focused on providing credit unions with competitive investment products and great member service. In 2007, our focus paid off, with 45 new members joining Corporate One. We now have investment relationships with 25 of the 100 largest credit unions in the nation. Deposits from these new members, as well as increased balances from our existing members, resulted in an increase in average interest-earning assets of $431.5 million, a 13.0% increase over 2006. This increase in average assets contributed to the increase in net interest income in 2007.

In order to attract and maintain share balances, our deposit products have to be competitive, but we differentiate ourselves by assigning our member credit unions to a specific Corporate One investment representative. Our investment representatives are licensed and able to understand the investment needs of our members. They are proactive in calling both members and prospective members to discuss their needs, and communicate those needs to our product development team. Our product development team then works to arm our investment representatives with a variety of products to serve our member credit unions. In addition to our on-balance sheet products, Corporate One is a co-broker of Primary Financial, enabling us to offer SimpliCD. SimpliCD allows credit unions to easily invest substantial funds in federally insured certificates of deposit. SimpliCD searches for the best rates and offers single transaction settlement. Credit unions can also issue share certificates through Primary Financial, providing them a source of liquidity.

In addition to SimpliCD, our members have access to securities through a branch of CU Investment Solutions, Inc. (ISI)* housed within Corporate One’s office. Through ISI, our members have access to the inventories of multiple broker/dealers’ institutional trading desks and receive very competitive pricing on the securities they buy and sell. Beyond the competitive pricing, we differentiate ourselves when it comes to selling securities by listening to credit unions and trying to find securities that fit their needs. Because we are also a credit union, we are keenly aware of the importance of complying with the investment stipulations set forth in the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) regulations. Therefore, we don’t just try to sell securities; we strive to find securities that meet the needs of our members.

Since SimpliCD and securities are both off-balance sheet products, they contribute to net service fee income instead of net interest income. However, it is important to mention them in the context of net interest income because these are examples of the investment alternatives we provide our members. We believe that it is critical to offer a variety of investment products.

As we focus on providing credit unions with competitive investment products, we must also ensure that Corporate One remains financially strong. Over the past several years, this balance has been particularly challenging given the flat to inverted yield curve. Additionally, in 2005 and 2006, global demand for structured and corporate debt securities of U.S. issuers resulted in spreads tightening to historic levels on many of the assets in which we invest. However, in 2007, the unprecedented widening of credit spreads and resulting global liquidity crisis actually helped boost our net interest margins and our net interest income in 2007 to record levels. During the summer of 2007, we employed several strategies that allowed us to take advantage of certain dislocations in the markets. First, to free up our liquidity sources, we redeemed U.S. Central certificates and sold securities, resulting in approximately $770 million in proceeds. As our balance sheet continued to grow, we were more flush with cash and able to invest in securities at exceptionally wide spreads. These were very solid securities that just a few months earlier were trading at historically tight spreads. In addition, this repositioning of our investment portfolio shifted our exposure toward one- and three-month LIBOR, while our liabilities continued to be priced off of federal funds. Typically there is a positive, but fairly tight spread between federal funds and LIBOR. However, despite the Federal Reserve Bank’s action to lower the federal funds rate, the reliance on LIBOR

funding by most financial institutions, which is not controlled by the Federal Reserve Bank, rose due to the market’s repricing of credit risk. This caused unprecedented spread widening between the two indices and caused a greater return on a larger percentage of our assets. Accordingly, our overall net interest margin was 57 basis points in 2007 compared to 41 basis points in 2006. During this time, we never wavered in our commitment to pay competitive rates and the significant increase in member deposits is proof that we accomplished this. The combined increases in our margin and our average assets resulted in an increase in net interest income. Net interest income was $21.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $13.6 million for the same period in 2006.

Service FeesIn addition to providing a wide range of competitive investment products to meet our members’ needs, Corporate One also provides a complete line of correspondent services. Net service fee income generated from our fee-based services was $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, a 31.4% increase from 2006.

With a $1.8 million increase over 2006, ACE was the most significant contributor to the overall increase in service fee income in 2007. At the end of 2006, we had more than 460 ACE installations. By the end of 2007, that number had grown to 669. We now have more than 48 million images stored in our researchable image database on behalf of our members. This significant increase in ACE installations resulted in higher volumes and revenue. We expect ACE revenue to continue to increase as we offer this valuable solution to credit unions across the country. Because members using our Access Daily Deposit Service (ADDS) were the first to benefit from our new ACE services, we have continued to see a decrease in gross fee income related to ADDS. However, this is somewhat deceiving on a net basis, because overall net service fee income for ADDS during 2007 was greater than 2006. Certain low margin business was converted away from the ADDS service and into the ACE product in 2007, resulting in a shift in the margins of the remaining ADDS business.

During 2007, we saw an increase in net service fee income related to our brokerage services. Increased liquidity at credit unions combined with the favorable interest rate environment for these products resulted in a significant increase in the volume of SimpliCD certificate and securities sales in 2007 compared to 2006. This was the primary reason for the increase in income from brokerage services. Additionally, during 2007 we were successful in opening SimpliCD and securities accounts for new members. Activity from these new accounts also contributed to the increase in net service fee income from these products.

Over the last few years, traditional payment mechanisms have shifted toward electronic methods; 2007 was no different. As a result, net service fee income from ACH, settlement and ATM services increased in 2007 compared to 2006.

Reductions in consumer usage of share drafts resulted in shrinking volumes among our existing share draft members in 2007. As a result, we experienced a decrease in net service fee income related to our share draft product during 2007.

Operating ExpensesTotal operating expenses were $16.8 million in 2007, an increase of $0.7 million relative to 2006. This increase was entirely due to increased expenses related to salaries and benefits. Salaries and benefits increased due to normal cost-of-living increases and merit raises. Also, during 2007, we had additional expense related to new staff hired as we continue to expand our enterprise-wide risk management (EWRM) department.

Throughout the year, we were constantly monitoring our office operations and occupancy and other operating expenses to determine areas of cost savings. This is evident in the decrease in expenses as compared to 2006. After evaluations of major expenses, we were able to create certain efficiencies that allowed us to drive down expenses. Office operations and occupancy expenses in 2007 were $261,000 less than 2006 and other operating expenses were $41,000 less in 2007 compared to 2006.

Page 30: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Enterprise Wide Risk ManagementCorporate One is committed to managing the risks associated with our business activities and has maintained a formal risk management department for many years. In the last three years, we embarked on an initiative to deploy enterprise wide risk management (EWRM) throughout our entire organization. We believe that EWRM is critical not only to managing our risks, but to maximizing our value to our members. To that end, Corporate One has adopted the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework for EWRM as the framework for the governance of risk. Corporate One utilizes a core process risk assessment methodology to identify, categorize and mitigate its risk. We have established an EWRM Committee comprised of members of our Board of Directors, our Supervisory Committee, and our senior management team. The EWRM Committee is responsible for reviewing completed risk assessments and coordinating, in conjunction with the Supervisory Committee, the testing of controls over critical processes. The EWRM Committee is also responsible for reporting the residual risks of Corporate One’s activities to the Board of Directors. The risks an organization takes should be balanced by the rewards. The Board of Directors ultimately uses the information from the EWRM Committee to determine if those residual risks are balanced by rewards or if the risks are too great and should be mitigated.

Liquidity Risk ManagementWe believe that liquidity risk is one of the most important risks that we manage. With every deposit we accept, we understand that we need to appropriately manage our liquidity to ensure our members have access to those funds when needed. Accordingly, we have certain daily liquidity management strategies that we employ, as well as more long-term, overarching liquidity strategies.

We constantly monitor our members’ liquidity needs by reviewing estimates of cash inflows and outflows over the short run. Based on these estimates, we allocate excess funds accordingly. We keep a portion of these excess funds very liquid to meet day-to-day liquidity requirements. In addition, we monitor our top depositors and we have limits on the maximum any one credit union can deposit with us. By striving to diversify our shares and member base, we shield ourselves from the risk of sudden withdrawals by large depositors.

We also generally match our members’ term certificates against assets with similar cash flows and maturities. As a result, when a term certificate matures, there is also an asset maturing at about the same time, producing the necessary liquidity to meet our members’ needs. We are able to do this because members have historically held term certificates to maturity. The composition of our share accounts has, in fact, shifted so that a greater percentage of our accounts are term certificates as compared to overnight. As of December 31, 2007, 57% of our share accounts are term certificates compared to only 44% at December 31, 2006. This shift makes managing our liquidity position somewhat easier, as term certificates are not as prone to sudden liquidity demands as overnight shares.

Corporate One also purchases securities that can be sold or borrowed against to generate liquidity. Additionally, when we employ yield-enhancing strategies, we consider liquidity risk in our analysis of the strategy. In fact, we specifically give up yield in some instances to ensure that our portfolio is adequately balanced when it comes to liquidity management. For example, at the end of 2005 and into the beginning 2006, even though mortgage-backed securities were some of the highest yielding securities we could buy, we continued to buy certain lower yielding assets that were more liquid.

Page 31: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Should we need to borrow to generate liquidity, we have diversified sources of funds and we test these sources periodically to ensure availability. Corporate One’s borrowing capacity (total existing lines less borrowings outstanding) at December 31, 2007 was approximately $1.7 billion. This borrowing capacity includes Corporate One’s advised line of credit from U.S. Central of $1 billion, which is supported by Corporate One’s investments in U.S. Central. On March 7, 2008, U.S. Central notified Corporate One that its advised line of credit was reduced to $750 million. U.S. Central indicated that the reduction of the line was not due to any credit concerns with Corporate One, but instead to the methodology used to determine the line of credit amount, which applies to all member corporates and is based on the certificate balances a corporate maintains at U.S. Central. In addition, we maintain a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB), which is secured by certain investments held in safekeeping at the FHLB. Based on our collateral, Corporate One’s borrowing capacity at the FHLB was approximately $403.5 million at December 31, 2007. Corporate One also has the ability to issue commercial paper in the national capital markets up to $350 million. Corporate One maintains the highest commercial paper ratings available from Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s (P-1 and A-1+, respectively). The ratings are based on criteria such as Corporate One’s asset quality, liquidity sources, capital strength and risk management practices. In addition, we maintain $135 million of committed lines of credit as well as federal funds lines with various financial institutions. The committed lines of credit are secured by certain investments, however the federal fund lines do not require collateral for overnight borrowing.

Although Corporate One’s on-balance sheet loan portfolio is small, we had additional outstanding advised line of credit and letter of credit commitments to members of approximately $1.2 billion at December 31, 2007. All outstanding line of credit commitments are collateralized by specific or general pledges by members. Commitments to extend credit to members remain effective as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the agreement. Advances on these commitments generally require repayment within one year of the advance. Since a portion of the commitments is expected to terminate without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Liquidity does not come without costs. As a member-owned organization, we are focused on reducing those costs. We strive to keep ourselves fully invested to earn the best possible return for our members, while ensuring we can meet our members’ liquidity needs. We also have diversified our sources of liquidity, so we can take advantage of the most competitive rates in the market.

Market/Interest Rate Risk ManagementWhen members deposit funds with us, we can choose to invest those funds in a variety of securities that closely match the duration and repricing characteristics of the underlying deposit, resulting in minimal mismatch. For our overnight liabilities that reprice daily, we generally invest such deposits in investments that reprice every one to three months or sooner. We generally match fixed-rate liabilities that mature in excess of one month with fixed-rate securities that have the same or approximately the same maturity. As a result of the way we manage our balance sheet, when interest rates move, the value of our floating-rate assets and liabilities does not fluctuate significantly. Movements in interest rates do affect our fixed-rate securities; however, there is typically a corresponding change in the value of the deposits matched against those fixed-rate securities. Our primary interest rate risk-measurement tool is a net economic value (NEV) calculation. NEV is defined as the fair value of assets less the fair value of liabilities and members’ accounts. The

Page 32: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

purpose of the NEV test is to determine whether Corporate One has sufficient capital to absorb potential changes to the market value of our assets and liabilities given sudden changes in interest rates. As expected, given our strategy for managing our balance sheet, our stress tests indicate little overall NEV volatility should interest rates move up or down. Figure One illustrates how closely matched our balance sheet is as a result of our strategy. This graph also illustrates that the majority of our assets and liabilities have effective durations (or the period of time until the instrument reprices) of less than 30 days. This relatively short-term duration also helps reduce our interest rate risk.

NEV scenarios are performed monthly, testing for sudden and sustained increases or decreases in interest rates of 100, 200 and 300 basis points. A summary of Corporate One’s NEV calculation as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 is shown in Table Four. At December 31, 2007 and throughout 2007, we have maintained well below the 28.0% change from base limit imposed by our Board and regulatory body to maintain our Part I expanded authority. Also, our NEV ratio at December 31, 2007 and throughout 2007 in all scenarios is greater than the minimum regulatory ratio of 2.0%. These results are expected, given our strategy for minimizing interest rate risk.

Because we invest in securities, we are also exposed to market risk due to liquidity and credit spreads. The severe dislocation in the global credit markets is causing all credit-related securities to experience deterioration in spreads and, hence, in fair values. As disclosed in note 4 of our audited financial statements, half of our unrealized losses at the end of 2007 were in mortgage-related securities. However, the remaining half of our unrealized losses were related to asset classes outside of the mortgage sector. Although contagion continues to be feared in other consumer-related sectors due to the importance of the mortgage sector to the overall economy, the other asset classes purchased by Corporate One are performing well within our expectations, with some of the subordinate tranches of our senior holdings upgraded by the rating agencies. Given the strong credit quality of our securities and our ability and intent to hold these securities until the anticipated recovery, these fair value adjustments are expected to reverse as the credit markets stabilize or the securities approach their maturity date. Regardless, the declines in fair values have reduced our NEV at the end of 2007 and resulted in a lower NEV ratio in all scenarios compared to 2006. With the markets continuing to demand exceptionally wide spreads on even high quality credit-related securities, the fair values of our securities have experienced further declines in the first part of 2008. This decline in the fair values of our securities has continued to put significant downward pressure on our NEV and NEV ratio. As of the date of this writing, we have not finalized the calculation of our NEV and NEV ratio for March 31, 2008. However, based on the continued market turmoil that occurred in March, including the rescue of Bear Stearns by JPMorgan Chase and the downgrades of certain bond issuers, we anticipate that we will not meet the minimum NEV ratio requirements and will follow the appropriate NCUA regulations as necessary. Because the NEV incorporates the unrealized losses on securities available for sale, it is losing some of its value as a tool to measure interest rate risk. Currently, the NEV and NEV ratio are more reflective of liquidity risk. During this time of deterioration in our NEV, the fundamentals of how we manage interest-rate risk have not changed.

Credit Risk ManagementWhat has turned into a global liquidity crisis originally stemmed from the billions of dollars of mortgage-related securities that were downgraded in the summer of 2007. An estimated $300 billion of securities were downgraded in 2007, the worst year on record for structured finance. Ninety-five percent of the downgrade activity was related to subprime mortgages and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) backed by subprime mortgages. Although Corporate One does have some exposure to mortgage-related securities, we have always focused on maintaining a high quality, diversified investment portfolio. Accordingly, our investments have some of the highest credit ratings that Moody’s and Standard and Poor’s assign or are issued by agencies of the U.S. government, or by U.S. Central, a “AA+” rated financial institution, or by other regulated depository institutions. In fact, as of December 31, 2007, approximately 85% of our total investments in financial institutions and securities were rated “AAA” or were issued by agencies of the U.S. government or U.S. Central. Additionally, mortgage-related securities represent less than 27.6% of our total investments in financial institutions and securities. It is also important to note that Corporate One does not have any investments in structured investment vehicles (SIVs), CDOs or commercial mortgage-backed securities.

It is not happenstance that we have a high quality, well-diversified investment portfolio. Protecting our members’ investments is our number one objective when we add assets to our balance sheet. Therefore, we take credit risk management very seriously. We have Part I expanded investment authority from the NCUA, which allows us to manage our balance sheet more effectively. Part I

Page 35: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

allows us to invest in securities rated “A-” or better. However, even with the expanded investment authority, we maintain a low credit risk profile because of our strategies to minimize this risk. These strategies include having policies and procedures in place to ensure that our portfolio is properly diversified and collateralized. Exposure guidelines are established by our risk management department, independent of the investing function within Corporate One, and affirmed by the Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO). These policies and procedures require high quality, investment-grade ratings for all investments we purchase. We perform an individual analysis of our investments both before and after we purchase them. The analysis is not only performed by the investment department, but also by our risk management department. The analysis includes an evaluation of the strength and integrity of the issuers and servicers, and we invest only with the most creditworthy obligors. Risk management also monitors the performance of the underlying collateral in each of these investments for as long as we own the security. Additionally, we primarily invest in securities with credit enhancements such as excess spread, subordination, or financial guarantees by a third-party guarantor, which reduces the likelihood that Corporate One will incur credit losses.

We use this same methodology when we lend money. We evaluate the credit applicant’s ability to repay loans by analyzing their financial strength. Also during the review, we consider the quality and liquidity of the collateral that the applicant pledges to Corporate One to secure borrowings.

On March 31, 2008, Corporate One had certain securities downgraded. These downgrades were primarily related to the downgrade of the third-party guarantor of the securities. However, in addition to the third-party guarantee, the majority of the securities have additional credit enhancements such as excess spread, overcollateralization and/or subordination. These downgrades resulted in twenty securities with ratings from two rating agencies below “A-” and therefore below what we are permitted to hold with Part I expanded authority. We are following the appropriate NCUA regulations to request permission to hold these securities. The total par value and fair value of these twenty securities at March 31, 2008 was $102.7 million and $73.8 million, respectively. Currently, we do not believe it is probable that we will be unable to collect our principal on these securities. However, continued deterioration in the market fundamentals and/or the ability of the financial guarantor to meet its insured obligations could change this view in the future.

Operational Risk ManagementCorporate One provides a variety of products and services to our members and is reliant upon the ability of our employees and systems to process a large number of transactions. Accordingly, Corporate One is exposed to a variety of operational risks, including errors and omissions, business interruptions, improper procedures, and vendors that do not perform in accordance with outsourcing arrangements. These risks are less direct than credit and interest rate risk, but managing them is critical, particularly in a rapidly changing environment with increasing transaction volumes. In the event of a breakdown or improper operation of systems or improper procedures, we could suffer financial loss and other damage, including harm to our reputation.

To mitigate and control operational risk, Corporate One has comprehensive policies and procedures designed to provide a sound and well-controlled operational environment. All vendor relationships are reviewed on an annual basis and a financial analysis of our major business partners is completed. Corporate One also engages an independent accounting firm to perform periodic internal audit procedures on the internal controls of Corporate One. This firm reports on such procedures to Corporate One’s Supervisory and EWRM Committees and Board of Directors. Additionally, business continuity plans exist and are tested for critical systems, and redundancies are built into the systems as deemed appropriate.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Corporate One Federal Credit Union as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of income, changes in members’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the credit union’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As more fully described in note 2(h) to the financial statements, Corporate One has reported share accounts as equity in the balance sheets and statements of changes in members’ equity that, in our opinion, should be reported as liabilities in order to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In our opinion, except for the effects on the balance sheet and statement of changes in members’ equity of reporting share accounts as members’ equity, as discussed in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Corporate One Federal Credit Union as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Page 42: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

(1) ORGANIzATION The purpose of Corporate One Federal Credit Union (Corporate One) is to foster and promote the economic well-being, growth and development of our membership base through effective funds management, along with loan, investment, and correspondent services for the ultimate benefit of our credit union members. Corporate One’s national field of membership includes state- and federally chartered credit unions and other credit union organizations primarily in the Midwestern part of the United States. Corporate One’s Board of Directors is composed of executive management from Corporate One’s member credit unions.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESThe following is a description of the more significant accounting policies Corporate One follows in preparing and presenting our financial statements.

(a) Use of EstimatesThe accounting and reporting policies of Corporate One conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and prevailing practices within the financial services industry, except as discussed in note 2(h). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Specifically, management has made assumptions in estimating the fair value of financial instruments, the assessment of other than temporary impairment and the amortization/accretion of premiums/discounts on investments subject to prepayment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(b) Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents include cash, amounts due from depository institutions, overnight amounts at U.S. Central, federal funds sold, and deferred deposits. Deferred deposits represent deposits for which Corporate One has received notification from the Federal Reserve Bank but has not received credit. The Federal Reserve Bank generally credits deferred deposits within one to three days of notification. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, deferred deposits totaled $158.6 million and $165.2 million, respectively. Net cash flows are reported on the accompanying statements of cash flows for loans, shares and certain other items. Corporate One is required to maintain cash or deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank. The required amount at December 31, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $3.0 million.

(c) Investments in Financial InstitutionsInvestments in financial institutions are carried at cost. These investments consist of interest-bearing term deposits primarily in U.S. Central and other federally insured depository institutions, and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati stock.

(d) SecuritiesAt origination, securities not classified as held to maturity or trading are classified as available for sale, and are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are excluded from earnings, and are reported as a separate component of members’ equity. Such securities include those that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risk or other factors.

Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded as adjustments to interest income from securities using the interest method. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities available for sale are credited or charged to earnings when realized based on the specific-identification method.

40/41

NOTES TO F I NANCIAL STATE M E NTS (table dollar amounts in thousands)

Page 43: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Available for sale and held to maturity securities are evaluated individually to determine if a decline in fair value below the amortized cost is other than temporary. To determine whether the impairment is other than temporary, we consider whether we have the ability and intent to hold the investment until a price recovery. Corporate One also considers the reasons for the impairment and the severity and duration of the impairment. If the impairment was determined to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the security would be written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down would be included in earnings.

(e) Loans to MembersLoans to members consist of settlement loans, demand loans, certificate-secured loans and term loans. Loans are stated at the current principal amount outstanding. Interest income is accrued on the daily balance outstanding at the borrowing rate. Corporate One evaluates each member’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. Loans are generally collateralized by member credit union share accounts and other member assets.

An allowance for loan losses was not considered necessary at December 31, 2007 and 2006 based on management’s continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio and its judgment as to the effect of economic conditions on the portfolio. The evaluation by management includes consideration of past loan loss experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, the current financial condition of the borrower, quality of the collateral and the amount of loans outstanding.

Corporate One incurred no loan losses in either 2007 or 2006 and considers no loans impaired as of, or during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

(f) Property and EquipmentProperty and equipment, included in other assets on the balance sheets, are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

(g) Income TaxesCorporate One is exempt from federal and state income tax pursuant to Section 501(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 122 of the Federal Credit Union Act, respectively.

(h) Members’ Share AccountsMembers’ share accounts are classified as equity to denote the ownership interest of the members. This classification conforms to the regulatory requirements of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). Generally accepted accounting principles require savings accounts to be classified as liabilities. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants published a guide opining that credit unions’ savings accounts should be classified as liabilities, which is “consistent with the prevailing practice of mutually owned savings and loan associations and savings banks.” We believe that credit unions are fundamentally dissimilar to mutually owned savings and loan associations and savings banks, which, for example, accept deposits from the general public and usually are not democratically controlled by their members.

If members’ shares had been presented as liabilities, total liabilities would increase and members’ equity would decrease by $3.74 billion and $3.43 billion as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. If Corporate One had classified members’ share accounts as liabilities, in accordance with GAAP, members’ equity as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 would have been $55.7 million and $115.4 million, respectively.

Credit unions transacting business with Corporate One are required to be a Partner member or an Associate member.

Page 44: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Membership capital shares (MCS) are required for Partner membership in Corporate One. Partner members enjoy Corporate One’s most favorable rates on their investments and enjoy the lowest fees on settlement services. MCS do not have a stated maturity. These shares are not subject to share insurance coverage by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) and, in the event of liquidation of Corporate One, are payable only after satisfaction of all other claims. Notice of intent to decapitalize is required and once notification is given, the deposit will be redeemed in three years. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were $12,000 and $9,000 of shares on notice, respectively.

Corporate One also offers an Associate membership. Associate members are required to maintain a $5 deposit. They may earn lower rates than Partner members on their investments with Corporate One and pay rates on settlement services with Corporate One according to the Associate member fee schedules.

(i) Paid-in CapitalPaid-in Capital (PIC) shares are investments by member credit unions and denote their ownership interest in Corporate One. PIC has no stated maturity date, requires a 20-year notice of intent to withdraw, earns dividends that are non-cumulative, and is classified as equity in the financial statements. PIC is not subject to share insurance coverage by the NCUSIF and, in the event of liquidation of Corporate One, is payable only after satisfaction of all other claims and the repayment of MCS. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were $375,000 of shares on notice.

(j) Reserves and Undivided EarningsReserves and undivided earnings represent earnings not distributed as dividends to members. Portions of earnings are set aside as reserves in accordance with Corporate One’s policy and the NCUA’s rules and regulations.

(k) Comprehensive Income (Loss)Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale.

(l) Service FeesService fees are earned on various services provided to credit unions and their affiliates. These services consist of ACH and ATM programs, depository services, share draft processing, and certificate of deposit and securities brokering. Gross service fee income for the years ending December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $19.2 million and $17.2 million, respectively. Revenues on the accompanying statements of income are reduced by third-party costs incurred to provide these services.

(m) Loss ContingenciesLoss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

(n) ReclassificationsCertain reclassifications have been made in the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the presentation for the year ended December 31, 2007. These reclassifications had no impact on total assets, total liabilities and members’ equity or net income.

(o) New Accounting PronouncementsIn September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 157, Fair Value Measurements, which is effective for fiscal

Financial Review

42/43

NOTES TO F I NANCIAL STATE M E NTS (table dollar amounts in thousands)

Page 45: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The new standard provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs. The standard also establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Corporate One does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operation.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 provides an option for companies to elect fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets, financial liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments and written loan commitments. Under SFAS 159, fair value would be used for both the initial and subsequent measurement of the designated assets, liabilities and commitments, with the changes in value recognized in earnings. Corporate One does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operation.

(3) INVESTMENTS IN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSInvestments in financial institutions at December 31 are summarized as follows:

2007 2006 U.S. Central: Share certificates $ 850,971 $ 1,740,751 Membership capital shares 93,592 70,064 Membership paid-in capital shares 1,900 1,900 Other shares 10,553 9,343

Federal Home Loan Bank stock 15,090 15,010Certificates of deposit 4,688 5,386

TOTAL INVESTMENTS IN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS $ 976,794 $ 1,842,454

U.S. Central share certificates are stated at cost and are redeemable prior to maturity at fair value as determined by U.S. Central. As of December 31, 2007, U.S. Central share certificates have specific maturities of $222.9 million due in one year or less, $257.4 million due after one year through five years, and $370.7 million due after five years through ten years.

Realized gains and losses on redemptions of certificates with U.S. Central are included in non-interest income in the accompanying statements of income. Proceeds from certificate redemptions in 2007 were $686.1 million, resulting in gross gains of $1.12 million and gross losses of $52,000. There were no redemptions of certificates during 2006.

Investment in membership capital shares is a requirement of membership in U.S. Central. Membership capital shares are subordinate to all other shares, share certificates and liabilities of U.S. Central except for paid-in capital shares. Membership capital shares can be withdrawn after the expiration of a three-year notice.

Investment in paid-in capital shares is optional for U.S. Central members. Paid-in capital shares are subordinate to all other shares and share certificates, including membership capital shares and liabilities of U.S. Central. Paid-in capital shares can only be redeemed at the option of U.S. Central.

Page 46: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Other shares consist of an account in which U.S. Central directs the associated dividends to the National Credit Union Foundation Community Investment Fund (CIF). Funds can be withdrawn from this account after a 90-day notice period.

Corporate One also maintains overnight accounts at U.S. Central, which are classified as cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, overnight amounts totaled $410.6 million and $95.9 million, respectively.

All shares and certificates with U.S. Central are pledged under our uncommitted line of credit agreement as further discussed in note 7.

As a member of the FHLB of Cincinnati, Corporate One is required to own a certain amount of stock based on its level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is classified as a restricted security and is carried at cost since there is no readily available market.

Mortgage-related securities consist primarily of securities collateralized by private label mortgage issuers, government agencies such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and asset-backed home-equity securities. Asset-backed securities consist primarily of securitized credit card, student loan and automobile receivables.

Corporate One invests only in bonds rated single A or higher. The unrealized losses in the portfolio resulted primarily from market dislocations in the asset classes in which we invest. Corporate One does not believe any securities in the investment portfolio at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were other than temporarily impaired and management has the intent and ability to hold these securities until the anticipated recovery. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or as the credit markets stabilize.

The unrealized losses on securities that have been in loss positions less than 12 months and greater than 12 months at December 31 are summarized as follows:

Realized gains and losses on sales of available for sale securities are included in non-interest income in the accompanying statements of income. Proceeds from the sale of available for sale securities were $103.5 million and $97.6 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Gross gains of $193,000 and $215,400 and gross losses of $712,000 and $0 were recorded on securities during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The expected distributions of securities available for sale at December 31, 2007 are reflected in the following table. Expected distributions may differ from contractual final maturities because of scheduled principal paydowns and because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. The majority of variable-rate securities

are amortizing securities and the entire principal amount outstanding is included in the maturity category that corresponds with the final return of principal.

TOTAL EQUITY INVESTMENTS $ 551 $ 565

At December 31, 2007, approximately 73% of the dollar amount of Corporate One’s securities were variable-rate securities, the majority of which had interest rates that reset monthly, predominantly based upon LIBOR. Of these variable-rate securities, 22% of the dollar amount of such securities had interest rate caps that were fixed at the time of issuance and the caps range from 7% to 18%. Less than 1% of the dollar amount of variable-rate securities had interest rate caps that fluctuate depending on the resetting of the interest rate on the underlying collateral of the security.

NOTES TO F I NANCIAL STATE M E NTS (table dollar amounts in thousands)

Corporate One has a 6.72% investment in Primary Financial Company LLC (Primary Financial). This investment meets the criteria outlined by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) in EITF No. 03-16, Accounting for Investments in Limited Liability Companies (LLC), and is accounted for using the equity method. Corporate One’s portion of Primary Financial’s current period net loss, recognized as a component of service fee income in the accompanying statements of income, was a loss of $10,000 and $4,000 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Corporate One is a co-broker of Primary Financial and, as such, earns a spread on certificates placed by Corporate One. Corporate One also earns additional spreads on certificates it places, as well as royalties on certificates placed by other co-brokers. These additional spreads and royalties represent additional consideration related to Corporate One’s sale of Primary Financial in 2003. Corporate One recognized income of $567,000 in 2007 and $308,000 in 2006 on the certificates placed by Corporate One. In addition, Corporate One received $643,000 in 2007 and $404,000 in 2006, related to the additional spreads on certificates it places and royalties on certificates placed by other co-brokers. These additional spreads and royalties continue through 2015 and are included as a component of net service fee income in the accompanying statements of income.

Page 49: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

Corporate One performs accounting and marketing services for Primary Financial under a support services contract. The contract is a one-year contract with provisions for automatic annual renewals. Prior to 2007, the contract included additional services such as information technology management, payroll and benefits administration and rental of office and hot site space. Corporate One recognized, as a component of net service fee income in the accompanying statements of income, $165,000 in 2007 and $476,800 in 2006 related to this agreement.

Corporate One owns 50% of Processing Alliance LLC (Processing Alliance). Corporate One does not have a majority voting interest and does not maintain a controlling interest in Processing Alliance. This investment, therefore, is accounted for using the equity method. This company was formed in December 2006 to provide forward cash collection services as well as other services to credit unions. Corporate One’s portion of Processing Alliance’s current period net loss, recognized as a component of service fee income in the accompanying statements of income, was a loss of $4,000 at December 31, 2007. There was no income or loss recognized during 2006.

(6) OTHER ASSETSIncluded in other assets is a deposit with the NCUA for share insurance, accounts receivable and net property and equipment.

Members’ shares are insured by the NCUA up to $100,000. For such insurance coverage to be in place, Corporate One must maintain a non-interest-earning NCUA share insurance deposit in an amount equal to 1% of Corporate One’s total insured shares. The deposit would be refunded to Corporate One if its insurance coverage is terminated, if it converts to insurance coverage from another source, or if the operations of the fund are transferred from the NCUA Board. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the deposit was $623,467 and $638,766, respectively.

Property and equipment, valued at cost less accumulated depreciation, at December 31 are summarized as follows:

(7) COMMERCIAL PAPER, LINES OF CREDIT AND OTHER BORROWINGSCorporate One had no outstanding commercial paper at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Commercial paper outstanding averaged approximately $6.0 million and $87.0 million during 2007 and 2006, respectively. There was no amount outstanding at any month-end during 2007 and the maximum amount outstanding at any month-end during 2006 was $330.0 million.

Corporate One has received commitments from several financial institutions enabling Corporate One to borrow funds under revolving lines of credit through October 2008. At December 31, 2007, these commitments totaled $135.0 million and no amounts were outstanding on these lines of credit. The interest rates on these lines are indexed off of money market rates, primarily LIBOR, plus a margin of up to 50 basis points. As collateral for these lines of credit, Corporate One has pledged securities to these financial institutions that have a fair value of approximately $164.9 million.

TOTAL BORROWINGS $ 341,404 $ 347,000

In addition, Corporate One has an uncommitted line of credit with U.S. Central that, by its nature, may be withdrawn by U.S. Central. Corporate One may take advances on this line of credit up to $1.0 billion based on the amount of eligible collateral available to support such advances. Eligible collateral consists of all shares and certificates with U.S. Central. As such, all of Corporate One’s shares and certificates with U.S. Central have been pledged under this line of credit agreement. For overnight borrowings on this line, the interest rate is variable and is established by U.S. Central on a daily basis. Fixed-rate term borrowings are also available under this line of credit. On March 7, 2008, U.S. Central notified Corporate One that its uncommitted line of credit was reduced to $750 million. U.S. Central indicated that the reduction of the line was not due to any credit concerns with Corporate One, but instead to the methodology U.S. Central uses for determining the advised line of credit amount, which applies to all member corporates and is based on the certificate balances a corporate maintains at U.S. Central.

As a member of the FHLB of Cincinnati, Corporate One is eligible to take advantage of the FHLB’s numerous credit products and advances. Advances and borrowings from the FHLB are required to be collateralized by securities held in safekeeping by the FHLB. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, Corporate One had securities held in safekeeping at the FHLB with fair values of approximately $493.8 million and $593.4 million, respectively, which provided a borrowing capacity of $403.5 million and $489.0 million, respectively. The following table provides a summary of our borrowings at December 31.

TOTAL SHARE CERTIFICATES $ 2,127,399

Settlement and regular share accounts are available to members on demand and pay dividends either daily or monthly. Share certificate accounts have specific maturities and dividend rates. Dividend payments on share certificate accounts vary according to the type of share certificate issued and the length of maturity. Share certificates can be redeemed by members prior to maturity at fair value, as determined by Corporate One. Most share certificates are in amounts greater than $100,000.

Total share certificate accounts by maturity at December 31, 2007 are summarized as follows:

(9) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIESCorporate One is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk that are used in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our members and to manage our exposure to market risks. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk that are not recognized in the balance sheets.

These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. The contractual amounts of these instruments represent the extent of Corporate One’s exposure to credit loss. Corporate One uses the same credit policies in making these commitments and obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. In extending commitments, Corporate One evaluates each member’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. All outstanding commitments are subject to collateral agreements and have termination clauses. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, these financial instruments included outstanding commitments to extend credit totaling approximately $1.2 billion and $911.0 million, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit to members remain effective as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the agreement. Advances on these commitments generally require repayment within one year of the advance. Since a portion of the commitments are expected to terminate without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

(10) RETIREMENT PLANPrior to January 1, 2007, Corporate One was a sponsor of two defined contribution plans. On December 31, 2006, the plans were merged and net assets of the merged plan were transferred into the surviving plan. Both the surviving contribution plan and the prior contribution plan cover substantially all employees. In 2007 and 2006, for each eligible participant, Corporate One contributed a total of 11.5% of the participant’s eligible compensation to the participant’s accounts in the plans. A portion of this percentage is discretionary. Employees also have the option to contribute a portion of their compensation on a pre- or post-tax basis. Retirement expense was approximately $785,000 in 2007 and $759,000 in 2006.

Page 52: Corporate One Annual Report 2007

(11) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSThe estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined by Corporate One using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Due to their short-term nature, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable, NCUSIF deposit, and dividends and interest payable approximate carrying values. The fair values of loan commitments are determined based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into consideration the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparty. Neither the fees earned during the year on these instruments nor their fair value at year’s end are material to the financial statements.

The fair values of Corporate One’s remaining financial instruments were based on the following methods and assumptions:

H Investments in financial institutions are based on discounted cash flow analyses using current market rates, except FHLB stock. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

H Securities available for sale are based on quoted market prices.H The majority of our loans to members are overnight loans so fair value approximates

carrying value. H The fair value of commercial paper and other borrowings is based on discounted cash

flow analyses using current market rates.H The fair values approximate carrying values for share accounts payable on demand at

the balance sheet date. The fair value of fixed-maturity share accounts is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for share accounts of similar remaining maturities.

(12) REGULATORY REQUIREMENTSThe NCUA periodically examines Corporate One’s operations as part of its legally prescribed oversight of credit unions. Based on its examination, the NCUA can direct Corporate One to change operations and management, adjust historical financial statements and make other changes in accordance with their findings. Additionally, the NCUA requires that corporate credit unions maintain a minimum capital ratio (capital divided by 12 month rolling daily average net assets (DANA)) based upon the corporate’s investment authority as authorized by the NCUA. The NCUA defines capital as reserves and undivided earnings, PIC and MCS. There are a number of remedies available to a corporate credit union should its capital ratio fall below the required minimum ratio. However, despite such remedies, the NCUA could restrict the corporate’s ability to, among other things, accept additional deposits, open new accounts, make loans or pay dividends. The NCUA also requires a corporate credit union to retain certain earnings levels if its retained earnings ratio (reserves and undivided earnings divided by 12 month rolling DANA) falls below the required percentage.

Corporate One’s actual reserves and undivided earnings, capital and regulatory ratios at December 31 are presented in the following table:

(13) SUBSEQUENT EVENT (UNAUDITED)Due to significant declines in the bond market, we are supplying the following information. Corporate One’s securities available for sale at February 29, 2008 are as follows:

Members’ equity at February 29, 2008 is as follows:

Since accumulated other comprehensive loss is not a component of regulatory capital, Corporate One at February 29, 2008 remained well capitalized for regulatory purposes and had a capital ratio of 6.13% on total regulatory capital of $235.4 million. Had Corporate One classified members’ share accounts as liabilities in accordance with GAAP, members’ equity at February 29, 2008 would have been a deficit of $222 thousand.

Under NCUA regulations, using a net economic value (NEV) calculation, Corporate One is required to measure and comply with certain limitations related to interest rate risk. At December 31, 2007 and February 29, 2008, Corporate One was in compliance with all NEV requirements. These regulatory limitations may not be met in future periods depending on changes in the market environment or changes to Corporate One’s balance sheet.

Corporate One’s selected balance sheet amounts at February 29, 2008 are as follows:
