2020 Letter to Shareholders

Last  spring,  life  changed  dramatically  for  everyone  across  our  nation,  and 
indeed  the  world.  The  COVID-19  pandemic  has  altered  the  way  we  live
and  interact  with  one  another.  It  has  also  changed  the  way  we  think  about 
our  business.  From  the  very  beginning,  OGE  Energy  Corp.  has  taken  the 
necessary steps to help limit, as much as possible, the effects of the pandemic 
on our customers, our communities, our employees and our business, and we
continue to work toward that end.

Excelling for our customers through challenging times

While  the  COVID-19  pandemic  was  unprecedented  in  its  own  right,  the 
weather also played a crucial role in how we energized life for our customers
– and continues to do so. From unusually mild weather last summer, to the 
most  destructive  ice  storm  in  company  history  in  late  October,  to  a  New
Year’s Eve ice storm that closed out the year, the effects of weather on our 
business  are  unmistakable.  We  have  not  missed  a  beat,  however,  as  our 
employees  continue  to  excel  through  every  challenge.  In  February  of  this 
year,  unprecedented  cold  winter  weather  impacted  our  region,  bringing 
a  prolonged  cold  spell  that  disrupted  natural  gas  supplies,  resulting  in 
extreme natural gas prices and a record winter peak demand for electricity.
Even as our service territory experienced record snowfall and temperatures, 
our  customers  experienced  minimal  disruptions,  as  our  employees  and 
generation fleet performed admirably throughout.

We were recognized again by the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) in 2020 as we 
received our 18th Emergency Response Award since 1999 for our restoration
efforts following a severe storm in July and the historic ice storm of October. 
OGE was also named a Winning “W” Company by 2020 Women on Boards
and we were awarded the Arbor Foundation’s Tree Line USA Award for the 
23rd year in a row. We accomplished all of this while maintaining rates that
are among the lowest in the nation. And we’ve done all of this safely. 2020
was our second safest year in history, and our last five years have been our 
safest years ever.

We kicked off our grid enhancement projects in Oklahoma last year, including 
securing a modernized mechanism for recovery of our investments. These grid 
enhancements are expected to provide our Oklahoma customers the same 
positive  results  we’ve  seen  in  Arkansas,  improving  resiliency  and  reliability 
across our system. Speaking of Arkansas, we filed our third formula rate plan
filing there in 2020 and successfully negotiated a constructive settlement in 
that case, which the Commision has approved. 

In 2020 we added two solar farms in southeast Oklahoma and we’re continuing 
our solar expansion with our first solar farm in Arkansas. It is currently in the 
construction  phase  and  we  expect  it  to  be  operational  later  this  summer. 
We  also  have  a  number  of  additional  projects  in  the  works,  including  the 
continuation of our Oklahoma and Arkansas grid enhancement projects and
the filing of an Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) in both Oklahoma and Arkansas
later this year which will lay out our future generation plans. We also expect to 
file our fourth Formula Rate plan in Arkansas this year.

During  the  previous  five  years,  we  have  invested  more  than  $3.3  billion  in
our system while maintaining some of the lowest rates in the nation, yet our
operating and maintenance (O&M) cost per customer is lower now than it was
at the end of 2015.

We will continue to invest in our communities to improve the reliability and
resiliency of our system while also working toward a cleaner enviroment. We’ve 
cut our CO2 emissions by greater than 40% since 2005 and are committed to 
significantly reducing emissions going forward.

Serving Our Communities

We  invest  in  the  future  of  our  communities  by  partnering  with  community
leaders in the areas of economic and community development. Since 2016, 
these  partnerships  helped  contribute  more  than  100  new  projects,  nearly
20,000 additional jobs and more than $10 billion in capital investment by new
and existing businesses in our service territory.

We  support  our  communities  in  other  ways  as  well,  such  as  giving  back 
through philanthropic activities. Our 5-year giving totals more than $11 million. 
In  addition,  we  remain  the  largest  Oklahoma  ad  valorem  tax  payor,  which 

schools 

in  our
directly  benefit 
service  area.  Our  communities  are 
strong.  Ft.  Smith,  Arkansas  had 
an  unemployment  rate  of  4.4%  in 
December.  Oklahoma  City  had  the 
seventh  lowest  unemployment  rate
amongst  large  metropolitan  areas  at
5.8%,  and  the  state  of  Oklahoma’s 
unemployment  rate  was  5.3%.  Each
of  these  falls  well  under  the  national
average.

Enable Midstream

Earlier  this  year,  we  announced  our
support  of  the  proposed  merger 
between Enable and Energy Transfer, 
which  we  view  as  an  important  step 
in  repositioning  ourselves  as  a  pure
play  electric  utility.  Enable  has  been
very  successful  for  our  shareholders 
as  we  have  received  more  than  $1  billion  in  distributions  since  its  creation 
in 2013. Upon closing of the merger, Energy Transfer will acquire the general
partner  interest  from  us  and  CenterPoint  for  $10  million  in  aggregate  cash
consideration  and  CenterPoint  will  pay  us  $30  million.  At  that  time,  OGE 
Energy  will  own  approximately  3%  of  the  significantly  more  liquid  units  of 
Energy  Transfer.  We  intend  to  exit  our  midstream  investment  over  time, 
improving the business mix of our company.

A compelling investment thesis

I’m  proud  of  what  we’ve  accomplished  over  the  past  five  years  and  what 
lies  ahead  for  our  company.  We’ve  returned  $1.4  billion  of  cash  to  our
shareholders in the form of dividends and delivered a 5% compound annual
earnings growth at the utility. Those are real, consistent results, delivering on 
our promises, year-in and year-out.

We have a solid and compelling investment thesis, backed by a track record 
of performance. Whether you look over the last 5, 10, or 15-year period, we 
have  delivered  compound  earnings  growth  between  5%  and  6%.  And  we 
expect  to  keep  true  to  our  commitment  to  deliver  on  our  earnings  growth
target of 5% by investing in lower risk investments that improve our customer
experience.  We  have  worked  hard  to  create  one  of  the  strongest  balance 
sheets  in  the  industry,  which  protects  our  dividend.  We  have  delivered
increasingly supportive regulatory outcomes and we operate in jurisdictions
that are experiencing solid load and customer growth. All of this is backed by
a workforce dedicated to energizing life for our customers by providing them 
with the life-sustaining and life-enhancing products and services they depend 
on each day.

As a shareholder, you should be confident in your decision to invest in OGE. 
Your company is strong, and while COVID has impacted all of us, I want our
shareholders to be confident that we are not focused simply on managing the
downturn, but on excelling through the recovery. 

Thank you for your interest and investment in OGE Energy Corp.

Sean Trauschke
Chairman, President and CEO

SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS

The Registrants are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, including regulatory risks, operational risks,
financial risks and certain general risks. Risks of OG&E are also risks of OGE Energy. OGE Energy also is subject to risks
associated with its investment in Enable. These risks could have a material adverse effect on the Registrants' business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. Risks that the Registrants deem material are described under "Risk Factors"
within "Item 1A. Risk Factors" herein. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following.

Regulatory Risks

• Profitability depends on the ability to recover costs from OG&E's customers in a timely manner.

• OG&E's rates are subject to various regulatory agencies whose regulatory paradigms and goals may differ.
• Costs of compliance with environmental laws and regulations are significant and may increase with the new

Biden administration.

• Costs of the Registrants' investments in capital improvements and additions may not be recoverable.

• The regional power market in which OG&E operates has changing transmission regulatory structures.

• The Registrants may face increased competition resulting from changes to the utility and energy markets.

• The Registrants are subject to compliance with substantial utility and energy regulation.

Operational Risks

Results of operations may be impacted by disruptions to the Registrants' fuel supply or the electric grid that are
beyond the Registrants' control.

•
• OG&E's electric assets are subject to various operational risks, including outages and accidents.
• Changes in technology, regulatory policies and customer electricity consumption may cause the Registrants'

assets to be less competitive.

• The Registrants may be impacted by severe weather conditions, as well as seasonal temperature variations.

Financial Risks
• The Registrants may be impacted by changes related to their Pension Plan and health care plans, including

market performance, increased retirements, change in regulations and increasing costs.

• OGE Energy is a holding company with its primary assets being investments in other companies.

Risks Associated with OGE Energy's Investment in Enable

• OGE Energy does not control Enable and therefore cannot cause or prevent certain actions by Enable.

• OGE Energy's operating cash flow is derived partially from cash distributions received from Enable.

• Enable's contracts are subject to renewal risks.
• Enable's businesses are dependent, in part, on the drilling and production decisions of others, which are impacted

by demand and commodity prices.

• Enable's industry is highly competitive.

• Natural gas, NGLs and crude prices are volatile.

• A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease may materially adversely affect Enable's business.

• Enable has contracts that provide services under fixed prices, which could result in costs exceeding revenues.

•

If third-party facilities that interconnect with Enable's facilities are unavailable, Enable may be impacted.

• Enable does not own all of the land on which its facilities are located, which could disrupt its operations.

• An impairment of long-lived assets could reduce Enable's earnings.

Introduction

PART I

OGE Energy, incorporated in August 1995 in the State of Oklahoma, is a holding company with investments in energy
and energy services providers offering physical delivery and related services for both electricity and natural gas primarily in the
south central U.S. OGE Energy conducts these activities through two business segments: (i) electric utility and (ii) natural gas
midstream operations.

OG&E. OGE Energy's electric utility operations are conducted through OG&E, which generates, transmits, distributes
and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. OG&E's rates are subject to regulation by the OCC, the APSC and
the FERC. OG&E was incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
OGE Energy. OG&E is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, and its franchised service territory includes Fort Smith,
Arkansas and the surrounding communities. OG&E sold its retail natural gas business in 1928 and is no longer engaged in the
natural gas distribution business.

Enable. OGE Energy's natural gas midstream operations segment represents OGE Energy's investment in Enable. The
investment in Enable is held through wholly-owned subsidiaries and ultimately OGE Holdings. Enable is primarily engaged in
the business of gathering, processing, transporting and storing natural gas. Enable's natural gas gathering and processing assets
are strategically located in four states and serve natural gas production in the Anadarko, Arkoma and Ark-La-Tex Basins.
Enable also owns crude oil gathering assets in the Anadarko and Williston Basins. Enable has intrastate natural gas
transportation and storage assets that are located in Oklahoma as well as interstate assets that extend from western Oklahoma
and the Texas Panhandle to Louisiana, from Louisiana to Illinois and from Louisiana to Alabama. At December 31, 2020, OGE
Energy owned 111.0 million common units, or 25.5 percent, of Enable's outstanding common units.

On February 16, 2021, Enable entered into a definitive merger agreement with Energy Transfer, pursuant to which,
and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement, all outstanding common units of Enable will be acquired by Energy
Transfer in an all-equity transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Enable's common unitholders, including OGE
Energy, will receive 0.8595 of one common unit representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer for each common unit
of Enable. The transaction is anticipated to close in 2021. The transaction is subject to the receipt of the required approvals from
the holders of a majority of Enable's common units, anti-trust approvals and other customary closing conditions. Assuming the
transaction closes, OGE Energy will own approximately three percent of Energy Transfer's outstanding limited partner units in
lieu of the 25.5 percent interest in Enable that it currently owns. Energy Transfer owns and operates one of the largest and most
diversified portfolios of energy assets in the U.S., with a strategic footprint in all of the major domestic production basins.
Energy Transfer is a publicly traded limited partnership with core operations that
include complementary natural gas
midstream, intrastate and interstate transportation and storage assets; crude oil, NGL and refined product transportation and
terminalling assets; NGL fractionation; and various acquisition and marketing assets.

See "Enable's Pending Merger with Energy Transfer" within "Item 1A. Risk Factors" for a discussion of risks related

to the Enable and Energy Transfer merger.

The Registrants' principal executive offices are located at 321 North Harvey, P.O. Box 321, Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma, 73101-0321 (telephone 405-553-3000). OGE Energy's website address is www.ogeenergy.com. Through OGE
Energy's website under the heading "Investors," "SEC Filings," OGE Energy makes available, free of charge, the Registrants'
annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports
filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable
after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. OGE Energy's website
and the information contained therein or connected thereto are not intended to be incorporated into this Form 10-K and should
not be considered a part of this Form 10-K. Reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission are also made available

OGE Energy is focused on creating long-term shareholder value by targeting the consistent growth of earnings per
share of five percent at the electric utility, underscored by a strategy of investing in lower risk infrastructure projects that
improve the economic vitality of the communities it serves in Oklahoma and Arkansas. OGE Energy utilizes cash distributions
from its natural gas midstream operations segment to help fund its electric utility capital investments. OGE Energy's financial
objectives also include maintaining investment grade credit ratings and providing a strong and reliable dividend for
shareholders.

OGE Energy's long-term sustainability is predicated on providing exceptional customer experiences, investing in grid
improvements and increasingly cleaner generation resources, environmental stewardship, strong governance practices and
caring for and supporting its members and communities.

Electric Operations - OG&E

General

OG&E furnishes retail electric service in 267 communities and their contiguous rural and suburban areas. The service
area covers 30,000 square miles in Oklahoma and western Arkansas, including Oklahoma City, the largest city in Oklahoma,
and Fort Smith, Arkansas, the second largest city in that state. Of the 267 communities that OG&E serves, 241 are located in
Oklahoma, and 26 are in Arkansas. OG&E derived 92 percent of its total electric operating revenues in 2020 from sales in
Oklahoma and the remainder from sales in Arkansas. OG&E does not currently serve wholesale customers in either state.

OG&E's system control area peak demand in 2020 was 6,437 MWs on August 28, 2020. OG&E's load responsibility
peak demand was 5,711 MWs on August 28, 2020. The following table presents system sales and variations in system sales for
2020, 2019 and 2018.

OG&E is subject to competition in various degrees from government-owned electric systems, municipally-owned
in certain respects, from other private utilities, power marketers and

electric systems, rural electric cooperatives and,
cogenerators. Oklahoma law forbids the granting of an exclusive franchise to a utility for providing electricity.

6

Besides competition from other suppliers or marketers of electricity, OG&E competes with suppliers of other forms of
energy. The degree of competition between suppliers may vary depending on relative costs and supplies of other forms of
energy. It is possible that changes in regulatory policies or advances in technologies such as fuel cells, microturbines, windmills
and photovoltaic solar cells will reduce costs of new technology to levels that are equal to or below that of most central station
electricity production. OG&E's ability to maintain relatively low cost, efficient and reliable operations is a significant
determinant of its competitiveness.

Regulation and Rates

OG&E's retail electric tariffs are regulated by the OCC in Oklahoma and by the APSC in Arkansas. The issuance of
certain securities by OG&E is also regulated by the OCC and the APSC. OG&E's transmission activities, short-term borrowing
authorization and accounting practices are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC. The Secretary of the U.S. Department of
Energy has jurisdiction over some of OG&E's facilities and operations. In 2020, 86 percent of OG&E's electric revenue was
subject to the jurisdiction of the OCC, eight percent to the APSC and six percent to the FERC.

The OCC and the APSC require that, among other things, (i) OGE Energy permits the OCC and the APSC access to
the books and records of OGE Energy and its affiliates relating to transactions with OG&E; (ii) OGE Energy employ
accounting and other procedures and controls to protect against subsidization of non-utility activities by OG&E's customers;
and (iii) OGE Energy refrain from pledging OG&E assets or income for affiliate transactions. In addition, the FERC has access
to the books and records of OGE Energy and its affiliates as the FERC deems relevant to costs incurred by OG&E or necessary
or appropriate for the protection of utility customers with respect to the FERC jurisdictional rates.

For information concerning OG&E's recently completed and currently pending regulatory proceedings, see Note 16

within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

OG&E, as a regulated utility, is subject to accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities, which
provide that certain incurred costs that would otherwise be charged to expense can be deferred as regulatory assets, based on the
expected recovery from customers in future rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce
expense can be deferred as regulatory liabilities, based on the expected flowback to customers in future rates. Management's
expected recovery of deferred costs and flowback of deferred credits generally results from specific decisions by regulators
granting such ratemaking treatment.

OG&E records certain incurred costs and obligations as regulatory assets or liabilities if, based on regulatory orders or
other available evidence, it is probable that the costs or obligations will be included in amounts allowable for recovery or refund
in future rates. Management continuously monitors the future recoverability of regulatory assets. When in management's
judgment future recovery becomes impaired, the amount of the regulatory asset is adjusted, as appropriate. If OG&E were
required to discontinue the application of accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities for some or all of its
operations, it could result in writing off the related regulatory assets or liabilities, which could have significant financial effects.
See Note 1 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion of OG&E's regulatory assets
and liabilities.

Rate Structures

Oklahoma

OG&E's standard tariff rates include a cost of service component (including an authorized return on capital) plus a fuel

adjustment clause mechanism that allows OG&E to pass through to customers the actual cost of fuel and purchased power.

OG&E offers several alternative customer programs and rate options, as described below.

•

•

•

•

Under OG&E's Smart Grid-enabled SmartHours programs, "time-of-use" and "variable peak pricing" rates offer
customers the ability to save on their electricity bills by shifting some of the electricity consumption to off-peak
times when demand for electricity is lowest.
The guaranteed flat bill option for residential and small general service accounts allows qualifying customers the
opportunity to purchase their electricity needs at a set monthly price for an entire year.
The Renewable Energy Credit purchase program, a rate option that provides a "renewable energy" resource, is
available as a voluntary option to all of OG&E's Oklahoma retail customers. OG&E's ownership and access to
wind and solar resources makes the renewable option a possible choice in meeting the renewable energy needs of
OG&E's conservation-minded customers.
Load Reduction is a voluntary load curtailment program that provides OG&E's commercial and industrial
customers with the opportunity to curtail usage on a voluntary basis when OG&E's system conditions merit
curtailment action. Customers that curtail their usage will receive payment for their curtailment response. This
voluntary curtailment program seeks customers that can curtail on most curtailment event days but may not be
able to curtail every time that a curtailment event is required.

8

•

OG&E offers certain qualifying customers "day-ahead price" and "flex price" rate options which allow
participating customers to adjust their electricity consumption based on price signals received from OG&E. The
prices for the "day-ahead price" and "flex price" rate options are based on OG&E's projected next day hourly
operating costs.

OG&E has Public Schools-Demand and Public Schools Non-Demand rate classes that provide OG&E with flexibility
to provide targeted programs for load management to public schools and their unique usage patterns. OG&E also provides
service level, seasonal and time period fuel charge differentiation that allows customers to pay fuel costs that better reflect the
underlying costs of providing electric service. Lastly, OG&E has a military base rider that demonstrates Oklahoma's continued
commitment to our military partners.

The previously discussed rate options, coupled with OG&E's other rate choices, provide many tariff options for
OG&E's Oklahoma retail customers. The revenue impacts associated with these options are not determinable in future years
because customers may choose to remain on existing rate options instead of volunteering for the alternative rate option choices.
Revenue variations may occur in the future based upon changes in customers' usage characteristics if they choose alternative
rate options.

Arkansas

OG&E's standard tariff rates include a cost of service component (including an authorized return on capital) plus an
energy cost recovery mechanism that allows OG&E to pass through to customers the actual cost of fuel and purchased power.
OG&E's current rate order from the APSC includes a formula rate rider that provides for an annual adjustment to rates if the
earned rate of return falls outside of a plus or minus 50 basis point dead-band around the allowed return on equity. Adjustments
are limited to plus or minus four percent of revenue for each rate class for the 12 months preceding the test period. The initial
term for the formula rate rider is not to exceed five years from the date of the APSC final order in the last general rate review,
May 18, 2017, unless additional approval is obtained from the APSC.

OG&E offers several alternative customer programs and rate options, as described below.

(A) Fuel mix calculated as a percent of net MWhs generated.

The decreases in the weighted average cost of fuel in 2020 compared to 2019 and 2019 compared to 2018 were
primarily due to lower fuel prices year over year. These fuel costs are recovered through OG&E's fuel adjustment clauses that
are approved by the OCC and the APSC.

OG&E participates in the SPP Integrated Marketplace. As part of the Integrated Marketplace, the SPP has balancing
authority responsibilities for its market participants. The SPP Integrated Marketplace functions as a centralized dispatch, where
market participants, including OG&E, submit offers to sell power to the SPP from their resources and bid to purchase power
from the SPP for their customers. The SPP Integrated Marketplace is intended to allow the SPP to optimize supply offers and
demand bids based upon reliability and economic considerations and to determine which generating units will run at any given
time for maximum cost-effectiveness within the SPP area. As a result, OG&E's generating units produce output that is different
from OG&E's customer load requirements. Net fuel and purchased power costs are recovered through fuel adjustment clauses.

Of OG&E's 7,120 total MWs of generation capability reflected in the table within "Item 2. Properties," 4,795 MWs, or
67.4 percent, are from natural gas generation, 1,534 MWs, or 21.5 percent, are from coal generation, 320 MWs, or 4.5 percent,
are from dual-fuel generation (coal/gas), 449 MWs, or 6.3 percent, are from wind generation and 22 MWs, or 0.3 percent, are
from solar generation.

Natural Gas

As a participant in the SPP Integrated Marketplace, OG&E purchases its natural gas supply through short-term
agreements. OG&E relies on a combination of natural gas base load agreements and call agreements, whereby OG&E has the
right but not the obligation to purchase a defined quantity of natural gas, combined with day and intra-day purchases to meet the
demands of the SPP Integrated Marketplace.

Coal

OG&E's coal-fired units are designed to burn primarily low sulfur western sub-bituminous coal. The combination of
all 2020 coal purchased had a weighted average sulfur content of 0.2 percent. Based on the average sulfur content and EPA-
certified data, OG&E's coal units have an approximate emission rate of 0.1 lbs. of SO2 per MMBtu.

For the first two quarters of 2021, OG&E has coal supply agreements for 100 percent of its coal requirements for the
Sooner, Muskogee and River Valley facilities. OG&E plans to fill the remainder of its 2021 coal needs through additional term
agreements, spot purchases and the use of existing inventory. OG&E has no coal agreements beyond June 2021. In 2020,
OG&E purchased 2.518 million tons of coal from its Wyoming supplier and 0.027 million tons from its Oklahoma supplier. See
"Environmental Laws and Regulations" within "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" for a discussion of environmental matters which may affect OG&E in the future, including its utilization
of coal.

Wind

OG&E owns the 120 MW Centennial, 101 MW OU Spirit and 228 MW Crossroads wind farms. OG&E's current wind

power portfolio also includes purchased power contracts as presented in the following table.

OG&E will continue to evaluate the need to add additional solar sites to its generation portfolio based on customer

demand, cost and reliability.

Safety and Health Regulation

OG&E is subject to a number of federal and state laws and regulations, including OSHA, the EPA and comparable

state statutes, whose purpose is to protect the safety and health of workers.

In addition, the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, the EPA Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-
Know regulations under Title III of the Federal Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act and comparable state statutes
require that information be maintained concerning hazardous materials stored, used or produced in OG&E's operations and that
this information be provided or made available to employees, state and local government authorities and citizens. OG&E
believes that it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations relating to worker safety and health.

Natural Gas Midstream Operations - Enable

Overview

Enable is a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership that owns, operates and develops strategically located natural
gas and crude oil infrastructure assets. Enable serves current and emerging production areas in the U.S., including several
unconventional shale resource plays and local and regional end-user markets in the U.S. Enable's assets and operations are
organized into two reportable segments: (i) gathering and processing and (ii) transportation and storage. Enable's gathering and
processing segment primarily provides natural gas gathering and processing to its producer customers and crude oil, condensate
and produced water gathering services to its producer and refiner customers. Enable's transportation and storage segment
provides interstate and intrastate natural gas pipeline transportation and storage services primarily to its producer, power plant,
LDC and industrial end-user customers.

Gathering and Processing

Enable owns and operates substantial natural gas gathering and processing and crude oil, condensate and produced
water gathering assets primarily in five states. Enable's gathering and processing operations consist primarily of natural gas
gathering and processing assets serving the Anadarko, Arkoma and Ark-La-Tex Basins, crude oil and condensate gathering
assets serving the Anadarko Basin and crude oil and produced water gathering assets serving the Williston Basin. Enable
provides a variety of services to the active producers in its operating areas, including gathering, compressing, treating and
processing natural gas, fractionating NGLs and gathering crude oil, condensate and produced water. Enable serves shale and
other unconventional plays in the basins in which it operates.

Enable generates revenues from producers in the basins in which it operates. For the year ended December 31, 2020,
Enable's top ten natural gas producer customers accounted for approximately 70 percent of its natural gas gathered volumes.
Enable's Anadarko Basin crude oil gathering system gathers crude oil and condensate from producers, which are primarily
delivered to one customer. The rates and terms of service on Enable's Anadarko Basin crude oil and condensate gathering
systems are regulated by the OCC. Enable's Williston Basin crude oil and produced water gathering systems serve one
customer. The rates and terms of service on Enable's Williston Basin crude oil gathering systems, but not its produced water
gathering systems, are regulated by the FERC. Enable's contracts typically provide for crude oil, condensate and produced
water gathering services that are fee-based, for natural gas gathering services that are fee-based and for natural gas processing
arrangements that are fee-based, or percent-of-liquids, percent-of-proceeds or keep-whole based.

Competition for Enable's gathering and processing systems is primarily a function of gathering rate, processing value,
system reliability, fuel rate, system run time, construction cycle time and prices at the wellhead. Enable's gathering and
processing systems compete with gatherers and processors of all types and sizes, including those affiliated with various
producers, other major pipeline companies and various independent midstream entities. In the process of selling NGLs, Enable
competes against other natural gas processors extracting and selling NGLs. Enable's primary competitors are other midstream
companies who are active in the regions where Enable operates.

While the results of Enable's gathering and processing segment are not materially affected by seasonality, from time to

time, its operations and construction of assets can be impacted by inclement weather.

11

Transportation and Storage

Enable owns and operates interstate and intrastate natural gas transportation and storage systems primarily across nine
states. Enable's transportation and storage systems consist primarily of its interstate systems, EGT and MRT, its intrastate
system, EOIT, and its investment in SESH. Enable's transportation and storage assets transport natural gas from areas of
production and interconnected pipelines to power plants, LDCs and industrial end users as well as interconnected pipelines for
delivery to additional markets. Enable's transportation and storage assets also provide facilities where natural gas can be stored
by customers.

Enable's interstate and intrastate natural gas transportation and storage systems generate revenue primarily by serving
large natural gas and electric utilities, as well as natural gas producers, industrial end-users and natural gas marketers. For the
year ended December 31, 2020, approximately 28 percent of EGT's service revenue was attributable to contracts with one
customer, CenterPoint. As of December 31, 2020, EGT's transportation contracts representing three percent, eight percent and
89 percent of CenterPoint's firm transportation capacity are scheduled to expire in 2021, 2024 and 2030, respectively. EGT's
firm storage contracts representing 33 percent and 67 percent of CenterPoint's firm storage capacity are scheduled to expire in
2021 and 2030, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, approximately 63 percent of MRT's service revenue was attributable to
contracts with one customer, Spire Inc. MRT's firm transportation contracts representing 63 percent, 24 percent and 12 percent
of Spire Inc.'s firm transportation capacity are scheduled to expire in 2024, 2025 and 2026, respectively. All of Spire Inc.'s firm
storage contracts are scheduled to expire in 2024.

Enable's EGT, MRT and SESH transportation and storage services are typically provided under firm, fee-based
transportation and storage agreements, with rates and terms of service regulated by the FERC. EOIT provides fee-based firm
and interruptible transportation and storage services on both an intrastate and interstate basis.

Enable's interstate and intrastate pipelines compete with a variety of other interstate and intrastate pipelines in
providing transportation and storage services within its operating areas. Enable's management views the principal elements of
competition for their natural gas transportation and storage systems primarily as a function of rates, terms of services, flexibility
and reliability.

Customer demand for natural gas transportation and storage services on EGT and MRT is usually higher during the
winter, primarily due to LDC demand to serve residential and commercial natural gas requirements. Customer demand for
natural gas transportation and storage services on EOIT and SESH is usually higher during the summer, primarily due to
electric utility demand for natural gas.

Environmental Matters

General

The activities of the Registrants are subject to numerous stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and
regulations governing environmental protection. These laws and regulations can change, restrict or otherwise impact the
Registrants' business activities in many ways, including the handling or disposal of waste material, planning for future
construction activities to avoid or mitigate harm to threatened or endangered species and requiring the installation and operation
of emissions or pollution control equipment. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in the assessment of
administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements and the issuance of orders enjoining future
operations. Management believes that all of the Registrants' operations are in substantial compliance with current federal, state
and local environmental standards.

In the past, environmental regulation caused the Registrants to incur significant costs because the trend was to place
more and more restrictions and limitations on the Registrants' activities. Under the Trump administration, the trend in
environmental regulation was to delay, reverse or repeal some of these restrictions and generally not to adopt new, more
stringent regulations. The Biden administration has announced that it plans to reverse many of the Trump administration's
environmental policies, including issuance of an executive order that instructs the EPA and other executive agencies to review
certain rules that affect the Registrants. The Registrants are monitoring these actions in an effort to understand the likely
stringency of future rules. In the meantime, the Registrants continue to have obligations to take or complete action under current
environmental rules.

12

Management continues to evaluate the Registrants' compliance with existing and proposed environmental legislation
and regulations and implement appropriate environmental programs in a competitive market but at the current time, based on
existing rules, does not expect capital expenditures for environmental control facilities to be material for 2021 or 2022. For
further discussion of environmental matters and capital expenditures related to environmental factors that may affect the
Registrants, see "2020 Capital Requirements, Sources of Financing and Financing Activities," "Future Capital Requirements"
and "Environmental Laws and Regulations" within "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations."

Human Capital Management

Our company fulfills a critical role in the nation's electric utility and, through our equity investment in Enable, natural
gas midstream pipeline infrastructure. In order to do so, we believe we need to attract, retain and develop a high quality, diverse
workforce and create a safe, inclusive and productive work environment for everyone. We believe that our company's core
values and beliefs, including those of respect, diversity and inclusion, and safety, serve as a foundation for our relationships
with our employees, who we refer to internally as "members" of the Registrants. These core values and beliefs are reinforced to
all employees at the time of hire, annually through a review of our Code of Ethics and periodically through small and large
group meetings. At December 31, 2020, OGE Energy had 2,360 employees, of which 1,872 are OG&E employees.

To help us attract and retain the most qualified individuals for our businesses, we provide a combination of strong
compensation and health and welfare benefit offerings, growth and development opportunities and various retirement plan
options. Our employees are also offered paid volunteer leave every year, which is intended to further enrich both their lives and
the lives in the communities we serve. Many of the positions in our companies are highly specialized, so having appropriate
training and succession planning is critical to business continuity and competitiveness. We provide leadership and career
development opportunities, including internal and external training as well as tuition reimbursement, to invest in the next
generation of leaders for our company. We target an average of 30-35 hours of training per employee annually, which aligns
with the benchmark published annually by the American Society of Training and Development. This comprehensive investment
in our employees contributes to an average tenure of 15 years and a voluntary turnover rate of 5.7 percent for 2020, which is 0.5
percent lower than the average voluntary turnover rate compared to our industry benchmark (the PwC Saratoga Benchmarking
Service).

Employee safety is paramount in the work we perform. One of our company core beliefs is to "Live Safely," which to
us means that we protect ourselves and others from injury by constant engagement, "always living safely." Our goal is to have
zero safety incidents every year, and we educate all of our employees on our incident and injury free workplace vision. We
report and analyze all near misses and incidents to understand the causal factors and associated corrective actions necessary to
reduce the likelihood of reoccurrence. We share what we have learned company-wide to provide real-time learning
opportunities for all employees. We track our safety performance and benchmark ourselves to our peer group, the Southeast
Electric Exchange. For 2020, our Southeast Electric Exchange incident rate was 0.47, which represented a 40 percent
improvement from our 2019 performance. The incident rate is calculated by counting the actual number of injuries and illnesses
per 100 employees' standard base labor hours divided by the actual number of hours employees worked. In comparison to our
peer group, our five year average safety performance placed us in the top quartile. We continue to analyze trends and engage in
discussions with our employees, creating a dialogue to enhance safety performance and work towards our incident and injury-
free workplace. Further discussion of the steps we are taking to help ensure employee safety during the COVID-19 pandemic
can be found in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis – Recent Developments – COVID-19."

We also strive to reinforce the belief that our employees are one of our greatest assets by creating a culture of respect
throughout the company. We do this by, among other things, encouraging employees to treat others justly and considering their
views in the decisions we make. We believe diversity and inclusion means embracing the uniqueness of each individual to
make us a stronger and more resourceful organization while serving and supporting the diverse communities where we live and
work. We are focused on creating a more diverse and inclusive workforce, particularly related to minority hiring. We have
formed relationships with diverse high schools in our service territory to introduce their students to potential jobs in the energy
industry and career paths to OGE Energy and have worked with technical schools to recruit diverse students to their programs,
which can lead to potential employment for our operational positions. We have also formed relationships with universities to
provide scholarships to students with diverse backgrounds. Additionally, we have focused on hiring individuals transitioning
out of the military. We are also focused on the inclusion of women in leadership positions. For example, female representation
among our officers and management-level directors is currently at 27 percent, which is up eight percent compared to five years
ago. As some of our more tenured employees retire (we average approximately 85 to 90 retirements, or four percent of our
workforce, per year), opportunities are created to promote or attract and hire additional individuals with diverse backgrounds.

13

Another initiative intended to promote inclusion and member development is the establishment of Employee Resource Groups
at the company, and our newly appointed Director of Ethics, Equity, and Inclusion is leading this effort.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In the discussion of risk factors set forth below, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us"
refer to the Registrants. In addition to the other information in this Form 10-K and other documents filed by us and/or our
subsidiaries with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, the following factors should be carefully
considered in evaluating OGE Energy and its subsidiaries. Such factors could affect actual results and cause results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us or our subsidiaries. Additional
risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently view as immaterial may also impair our business
operations.

The Registrants are subject to a variety of risks which can be classified as regulatory, operational, financial and
general. Risk factors of OG&E are also risk factors of OGE Energy. OGE Energy also is subject to risks associated with its
investment in Enable.

REGULATORY RISKS

The Registrants' profitability depends to a large extent on the ability of OG&E to fully recover its costs, including its cost of
capital, from its customers in a timely manner, and there may be changes in the regulatory environment that impair its
ability to recover costs from its customers.

OG&E is subject

to comprehensive regulation by several federal and state utility regulatory agencies, which
significantly influences its operating environment and its ability to fully recover its costs, including its cost of capital, from
utility customers. Recoverability of any under recovered amounts from OG&E's customers due to a rise in fuel costs is a
significant risk, such as experienced in February 2021 due to the unprecedented, prolonged, cold spell that resulted in winter
record winter peak demand for electricity in OG&E's service territory and extreme natural gas and purchased power prices. The
utility commissions in the states where OG&E operates regulate many aspects of its utility operations including siting and
construction of facilities, customer service and the rates that OG&E can charge customers. The profitability of the utility
operations is dependent on OG&E's ability to fully recover costs related to providing energy and utility services to its customers
in a timely manner. Any failure to obtain utility commission approval to increase rates to fully recover costs, or a delay in the
receipt of such approval, could have an adverse impact on OG&E's results of operations. In addition, OG&E's jurisdictions have
fuel adjustment clauses that permit OG&E to recover fuel costs through rates without a general rate review, subject to a later
determination that such fuel costs were prudently incurred. If the state regulatory commissions determine that the fuel costs
were not prudently incurred, recovery could be disallowed. See Note 16 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data" for further discussion of the significant fuel and purchased power costs incurred during the February 2021
weather event and the related regulatory filing with the OCC.

In recent years, the regulatory environments in which OG&E operates have received an increased amount of
attention. It is possible that there could be changes in the regulatory environment that would impair OG&E's ability to fully
recover costs historically paid by OG&E's customers. State utility commissions generally possess broad powers to ensure that
the needs of the utility customers are being met. OG&E cannot assure that the OCC, APSC and the FERC will grant rate
increases in the future or in the amounts requested, and they could instead lower OG&E's rates.

The Registrants are unable to predict the impact on their operating results from future regulatory activities of any of
the agencies that regulate OG&E. Changes in regulations or the imposition of additional regulations could have an adverse
impact on the Registrants' results of operations.

OG&E's rates are subject to rate regulation by the states of Oklahoma and Arkansas, as well as by a federal agency, whose
regulatory paradigms and goals may not be consistent.

OG&E is a vertically integrated electric utility. Most of its revenue results from the sale of electricity to retail

customers subject to bundled rates that are approved by the applicable state utility commission.

OG&E operates in Oklahoma and western Arkansas and is subject to rate regulation by the OCC and the APSC, in
addition to FERC regulation of its transmission activities and any wholesale sales. Exposure to inconsistent state and federal
regulatory standards may limit our ability to operate profitably. Further alteration of the regulatory landscape in which we
operate, including a change in our authorized return on equity, may harm our financial position and results of operations.

15

Costs of compliance with environmental laws and regulations are significant, and the cost of compliance with future
environmental laws and regulations may adversely affect our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

We are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental statutes, rules and regulations relating to air quality,
water quality, waste management, wildlife conservation, natural resources and health and safety that could, among other things,
restrict or limit the output of certain facilities or the use of certain fuels required for the production of electricity and/or require
additional pollution control equipment and otherwise increase costs. There are significant capital, operating and other costs
associated with compliance with these environmental statutes, rules and regulations and those costs may be even more
significant in the future.

In response to recent regulatory and judicial decisions and international accords, emissions of greenhouse gases
including, most significantly, CO2, could be restricted in the future as a result of federal or state legal requirements or litigation
relating to greenhouse gas emissions. No rules are currently in effect that require us to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, but
if such rules were to become effective, they could result in significant additional compliance costs that would affect our future
financial position, results of operations and cash flows if such costs are not recovered through regulated rates.

There is inherent risk of the incurrence of environmental costs and liabilities in our operations and historical industry
practices. These activities are subject to stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and regulations that can restrict or
impact OG&E's business activities in many ways, such as restricting the way OG&E can handle or dispose of its wastes or
requiring remedial action to mitigate pollution conditions that may be caused by its operations or that are attributable to former
operators. OG&E may be unable to recover these costs from insurance or other regulatory mechanisms. We expect that the
Biden administration will enact stricter laws, regulations and enforcement policies that could significantly increase compliance
costs and the cost of any remediation that may become necessary. If regulations are enacted regarding any of our generating
units, it could potentially result in stranded assets.

For further discussion of environmental matters that may affect the Registrants, see "Environmental Laws and

Regulations" within "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

We may not be able to recover the costs of our substantial investments in capital improvements and additions.

Our business plan calls for extensive investments in capital improvements and additions in OG&E, including
modernizing existing infrastructure as well as other initiatives. Significant portions of OG&E's facilities were constructed many
years ago. Older generation equipment, even if maintained in accordance with good engineering practices, may require
significant capital expenditures to maintain efficiency, to comply with environmental requirements or to provide reliable
operations. OG&E currently provides service at rates approved by one or more regulatory commissions. If these regulatory
commissions do not approve adjustments to the rates OG&E charges, it would not be able to recover the costs associated with
its planned extensive investment. This could adversely affect the Registrants' financial position and results of operations. While
OG&E may seek to limit the impact of any denied recovery by attempting to reduce the scope of its capital investment, there
can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of any such mitigation efforts, particularly with respect to previously incurred costs
and commitments.

The regional power market in which OG&E operates has changing transmission regulatory structures, which may affect the
transmission assets and related revenues and expenses.

OG&E currently owns and operates transmission and generation facilities as part of a vertically integrated utility.
OG&E is a member of the SPP regional transmission organization and has transferred operational authority (but not ownership)
of OG&E's transmission facilities to the SPP. The SPP has implemented regional day ahead and real-time markets for energy
and operating reserves, as well as associated transmission congestion rights. Collectively, the three markets operate together
under the global name, SPP Integrated Marketplace. OG&E represents owned and contracted generation assets and customer
load in the SPP Integrated Marketplace for the sole benefit of its customers. OG&E has not participated in the SPP Integrated
Marketplace for any speculative trading activities. We record the SPP Integrated Marketplace transactions as sales or purchases
with results reported as Revenues from Contracts with Customers or Cost of Sales in its financial statements. Our revenues,
expenses, assets and liabilities may be adversely affected by changes in the organization, operation and regulation of the SPP
Integrated Marketplace by the FERC or the SPP.

16

Increased competition resulting from efforts to restructure utility and energy markets could have a significant financial
impact on us and consequently impact our revenue.

We have been and will continue to be affected by competitive changes to the utility and energy industries. Significant
changes have occurred and additional changes have been proposed to the wholesale electric market. Although retail
restructuring efforts in Oklahoma and Arkansas have been postponed for the time being, if such efforts were renewed, retail
competition and the unbundling of regulated energy service could have a significant financial impact on us due to possible
impairments of assets, a loss of retail customers, impact profit margins and/or increased costs of capital. Any such restructuring
could have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We cannot predict when we will
be subject to changes in legislation or regulation, nor can we predict the impact of these changes on our financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.

We are subject to substantial utility and energy regulation by governmental agencies. Compliance with current and future
utility and energy regulatory requirements and procurement of necessary approvals, permits and certifications may result in
significant costs to us.

We are subject to substantial regulation from federal, state and local regulatory agencies. We are required to comply
with numerous laws and regulations and to obtain permits, approvals and certifications from the governmental agencies that
regulate various aspects of our businesses, including customer rates, service regulations, retail service territories, sales of
securities, asset acquisitions and sales, accounting policies and practices and the operation of generating facilities. We believe
the necessary permits, approvals and certificates have been obtained for our existing operations and that our business is
conducted in accordance with applicable laws; however, we are unable to predict the impact on our operating results from
future regulatory activities of these agencies.

The NERC is responsible for the development and enforcement of mandatory reliability and cyber security standards
for the wholesale electric power system. OG&E's plan is to comply with all applicable standards and to expediently correct a
violation should it occur. As one of OG&E's regulators, the NERC has comprehensive regulations and standards related to the
reliability and security of our operating systems and is continuously developing additional mandatory compliance requirements
for the utility industry. The increasing development of NERC rules and standards will increase compliance costs and our
exposure for potential violations of these standards.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Our results of operations may be impacted by disruptions to fuel supply or the electric grid that are beyond our control.

We are exposed to risks related to performance of contractual obligations by our suppliers. We are dependent on coal
and natural gas for much of our electric generating capacity. We rely on suppliers to deliver coal and natural gas in accordance
with short- and long-term contracts. We have certain supply contracts in place; however, there can be no assurance that the
counterparties to these agreements will fulfill their obligations to supply coal and natural gas to us. The suppliers under these
agreements may experience financial or technical problems that inhibit their ability to fulfill their obligations to us. In addition,
the suppliers under these agreements may not be required to supply coal and natural gas to us under certain circumstances, such
as in the event of a natural disaster. Deliveries may be subject to short-term interruptions or reductions due to various factors,
including transportation problems, weather and availability of equipment. Failure or delay by our suppliers of coal and natural
gas deliveries could disrupt our ability to deliver electricity and require us to incur additional expenses to meet the needs of our
customers.

Also, because our generation and transmission systems are part of an interconnected regional grid, we face the risk of
possible loss of business due to a disruption or black-out caused by an event such as a severe storm, generator or transmission
facility outage on a neighboring system or the actions of a neighboring utility. Any such disruption could result in a significant
decrease in revenues and significant additional costs to repair assets, which could have a material adverse impact on our
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

OG&E's electric generation, transmission and distribution assets are subject to operational risks that could result in
unscheduled plant outages, unanticipated operation and maintenance expenses, increased purchase power costs, accidents
and third-party liability.

OG&E owns and operates coal-fired, natural gas-fired, wind-powered and solar-powered generating assets. Operation
of electric generation, transmission and distribution assets involves risks that can adversely affect energy output and efficiency

17

levels or that could result in loss of human life, significant damage to property, environmental pollution and impairment of
OG&E's operations. Included among these risks are:

•
•
•
•
•

increased prices for fuel and fuel transportation as existing contracts expire;
facility shutdowns due to a breakdown or failure of equipment or processes or interruptions in fuel supply;
operator error or safety related stoppages;
disruptions in the delivery of electricity; and
catastrophic events such as fires, explosions, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes or other similar occurrences.

The occurrence of any of these events, if not fully covered by insurance, could have a material effect on our financial
position and results of operations. Further, when unplanned maintenance work is required on power plants or other equipment,
OG&E will not only incur unexpected maintenance expenses, but it may also have to make spot market purchases of
replacement electricity that could exceed OG&E's costs of generation or be forced to retire a generation unit if the cost or
timing of the maintenance is not reasonable and prudent. If OG&E is unable to recover any of these increased costs in rates, it
could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.

Changes in technology, regulatory policies and customer electricity consumption may cause our assets to be less competitive
and impact our results of operations.

OG&E primarily generates electricity at large central facilities. This method typically results in economies of scale and
lower costs than newer technologies such as fuel cells, microturbines, windmills and photovoltaic solar cells. It is possible that
advances in technologies or changes in regulatory policies will reduce costs of new technology to levels that are equal to or
below that of most central station electricity production, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
OG&E's widespread use of Smart Grid technology allowing for two-way communications between the utility and its customers
could enable the entry of technology companies into the interface between OG&E and its customers, resulting in unpredictable
effects on our current business.

Reductions in customer electricity consumption, thereby reducing utility electric sales, could result from increased
deployment of renewable energy technologies as well as increased efficiency of household appliances, among other general
efficiency gains in technology. However, this potential reduction in load would not reduce our need for ongoing investments in
our infrastructure to reliably serve our customers. Continued utility infrastructure investment without increased electricity sales
could cause increased rates for customers, potentially resulting in further reductions in electricity sales and reduced
profitability.

Weather conditions such as tornadoes, thunderstorms, ice storms, wind storms, flooding, earthquakes, prolonged droughts
and the occurrence of wildfires, as well as seasonal temperature variations may adversely affect our financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.

Weather conditions directly influence the demand for electric power. In OG&E's service area, demand for power peaks
during the hot summer months, with market prices also typically peaking at that time. As a result, overall operating results may
fluctuate on a seasonal and quarterly basis. In addition, we have historically sold less power, and consequently received less
revenue, when weather conditions are milder. Unusually mild weather in the future could reduce our revenues, net income,
available cash and borrowing ability. Severe weather, such as tornadoes, thunderstorms, ice storms, wind storms, flooding,
earthquakes, prolonged droughts and the occurrence of wildfires, may cause outages and property damage which may require
us to incur additional costs that are generally not insured and that may not be recoverable from customers. The effect of the
failure of our facilities to operate as planned, as described above, would be particularly burdensome during a peak demand
period. In addition, prolonged droughts could cause a lack of sufficient water for use in cooling during the electricity generating
process. Additionally, if climate change exacerbates physical changes in weather, operations may be impacted as discussed
above. OG&E can incur significant restoration costs as a result of these weather events. If OG&E is unable to recover any of
these increased costs in rates, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.

FINANCIAL RISKS

Market performance, increased retirements, changes in retirement plan regulations and increasing costs associated with our
Pension Plan, health care plans and other employee-related benefits may adversely affect our financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

We have a Pension Plan that covers a significant amount of our employees hired before December 1, 2009. We also
have defined benefit postretirement plans that cover a significant amount of our employees hired prior to February 1,

18

2000. Assumptions related to future costs, returns on investments, interest rates and other actuarial assumptions with respect to
the defined benefit retirement and postretirement plans have a significant impact on our results of operations and funding
requirements. Based on our assumptions at December 31, 2020, we expect to make future contributions to maintain required
funding levels. It has been our practice to also make voluntary contributions to maintain more prudent funding levels than
minimally required. We may continue to make voluntary contributions in the future. These amounts are estimates and may
change based on actual stock market performance, changes in interest rates and any changes in governmental regulations.

If the employees who participate in the Pension Plan retire when they become eligible for retirement over the next
several years, or if our plan experiences adverse market returns on its investments, or if interest rates materially fall, our pension
expense and contributions to the plans could rise substantially over historical levels. The timing and number of employees
retiring and selecting the lump-sum payment option could result in pension settlement charges that could materially affect our
results of operations if we are unable to recover these costs through our electric rates. In addition, assumptions related to future
costs, returns on investments, interest rates and other actuarial assumptions, including projected retirements, have a significant
impact on our financial position and results of operations. Those factors are outside of our control.

In addition to the costs of our Pension Plan, the costs of providing health care benefits to our employees and retirees
have increased in recent years. We believe that our employee benefit costs, including costs related to health care plans for our
employees, will continue to rise. The increasing costs and funding requirements with our Pension Plan, health care plans and
other employee benefits may adversely affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Finally, OGE Energy provides retirement benefits and retiree health care benefits to 76 employees seconded to Enable.
If the seconding agreement was terminated, and those employees were no longer employed by OGE Energy, and lump sum
payments were made to those employees, OGE Energy would recognize a settlement or curtailment of the pension/retiree health
care charges, which would increase expense at OGE Energy by $19.0 million. Settlement and curtailment charges associated
with the Enable seconded employees are not reimbursable to OGE Energy by Enable. The seconding agreement can be
terminated by mutual agreement of OGE Energy and Enable or solely by OGE Energy upon 120 days' notice. Assuming the
pending merger between Enable and Energy Transfer is completed, the seconding agreement will be terminated.

OGE Energy is a holding company with its primary assets being investments in its subsidiary and equity investments.

OGE Energy is a holding company and thus its investments in its subsidiary and unconsolidated affiliate, accounted
for under the equity method, are its primary assets. Substantially all of OGE Energy's operations are conducted by its subsidiary
and unconsolidated affiliate. Consequently, OGE Energy's operating cash flow and its ability to pay dividends and service its
indebtedness utilizes the operating cash flow of its subsidiary and unconsolidated affiliate and the payment of funds by them to
OGE Energy in the form of dividends or distributions. At December 31, 2020, OGE Energy and OG&E had outstanding
indebtedness and other liabilities of $7.1 billion. OGE Energy's subsidiary, OG&E, and unconsolidated affiliate, Enable, are
separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due on OGE Energy's indebtedness or to make any funds
available for that purpose, whether by dividends or otherwise. In addition, their ability to pay dividends to OGE Energy
depends on any statutory and contractual restrictions that may be applicable to such subsidiary, which may include
requirements to maintain minimum levels of working capital and other assets. Claims of creditors, including general creditors,
of OGE Energy's subsidiary or unconsolidated affiliate on their respective assets will generally have priority over OGE Energy
claims (except to the extent that OGE Energy may be a creditor of the subsidiaries and its claims are recognized) and claims by
OGE Energy shareholders.

In addition, as discussed above, OG&E is regulated by state utility commissions in Oklahoma and Arkansas as well as
a federal regulatory agency which generally possess broad powers to ensure that the needs of the utility customers are being
met. To the extent that the state commissions or federal regulatory agency attempt to impose restrictions on the ability of
OG&E to pay dividends to OGE Energy, it could adversely affect its ability to continue to pay dividends.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OGE ENERGY'S INVESTMENT IN ENABLE

OGE Energy does not control Enable and therefore is not able to cause or prevent certain actions by Enable. The general
partnership of Enable is equally controlled by OGE Energy and CenterPoint.

Enable has its own governing board; therefore, OGE Energy is not able to exercise control over Enable. Accordingly,
OGE Energy is unable to cause or prevent certain actions by Enable. Further, OGE Energy cannot control the actions of the
other general partner, CenterPoint. OGE Energy's interests may not align with those of CenterPoint, and this lack of control
could adversely impact its investment in Enable.

19

As discussed in "Item 1. Business," in February 2021, Enable entered into a definitive merger agreement with Energy
Transfer. Assuming the transaction closes, OGE Energy will own approximately three percent of Energy Transfer's outstanding
limited partner units in lieu of the 25.5 percent interest in Enable that it currently owns, which would result in OGE Energy
having less control over the activities of its expected investment in Energy Transfer. Further, although OGE Energy does not
control Enable, OGE Energy has a 50 percent interest in Enable's general partner and is able to designate two directors for the
Enable board. Following completion of the merger, OGE Energy will not have any interest in the general partner and will not
have any designees on the Energy Transfer board. Accordingly, OGE Energy will be unable to cause, prevent or influence
actions by Energy Transfer.

A portion of OGE Energy's earnings and operating cash flows are based on the performance of Enable. If any of the
following risks were to occur, OGE Energy's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be
materially adversely affected.

OGE Energy's operating cash flow is derived partially from cash distributions it receives from Enable.

OGE Energy's operating cash flow is derived partially from cash distributions it receives from Enable. The amount of
cash Enable can distribute on its units principally depends upon the amount of cash generated from its operations, which will
fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on, among other things:

•
•
•

the fees and gross margins it realizes with respect to the volume of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil that it handles;
the prices of, levels of production of, and demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil;
the volume of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil it gathers, compresses, treats, dehydrates, processes, fractionates,
transports and stores;
the relationship among prices for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil;
cash calls and settlements of hedging positions;

•
•
• margin requirements on open price risk management assets and liabilities;
•
•
•
•

the level of competition from other companies offering midstream services;
adverse effects of governmental and environmental regulation;
the level of its operation and maintenance expenses and general and administrative costs; and
prevailing economic conditions.

In addition, the actual amount of cash Enable will have available for distribution will depend on other factors,

including:

•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

the level and timing of capital expenditures it makes;
the cost of acquisitions;
its debt service requirements and other liabilities;
fluctuations in working capital needs;
its ability to borrow funds and access capital markets;
restrictions contained in its debt agreements;
the amount of cash reserves established by its general partner;
distributions paid on its Series A Preferred Units; and
other business risks affecting its cash levels.

Enable's contracts are subject to renewal risks.

As contracts with Enable's existing suppliers and customers expire, Enable generally seeks to negotiate extensions or
renewals of those contracts or enters into new contracts with other suppliers and customers. Enable may be unable to extend or
renew existing contracts or enter into new contracts on favorable commercial terms, if at all. Depending on prevailing market
conditions at the time of an extension or renewal, gathering and processing customers with fee-based contracts may desire to
enter into contracts under different fee arrangements, and gathering and processing customers with contracts that contain
minimum volume commitments may desire to enter into contracts without minimum volume commitments. Likewise, Enable's
transportation and storage customers may choose not to extend or renew expiring contracts based on the economics of the
related areas of production. To the extent Enable is unable to renew or replace its expiring contracts on terms that are favorable
to Enable, if at all, or successfully manage its overall contract mix over time, its financial position, results of operations and
ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected.

20

The businesses of Enable are dependent, in part, on the drilling and production decisions of others. In response to sharp
declines in demand for oil and gas as well as commodity prices resulting from the economic impact of the COVID-19
pandemic, many producers have significantly reduced previously anticipated drilling and production activities and may
make additional reductions in the future.

The businesses of Enable are dependent on the drilling and production of natural gas and crude oil. Enable has no
control over the level of drilling activity in its areas of operation, or the amount of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil reserves
associated with wells connected to its systems, or the amount of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil produced from the wells
connected to its systems. In addition, as the rate at which production from wells currently connected to its system naturally
declines over time, its gross margin associated with those wells will also decline. To maintain or increase throughput levels on
its gathering and transportation systems and the asset utilization rates at its natural gas processing plants, its customers must
continually obtain new natural gas, NGLs and crude oil supplies. Drilling activity in the areas served by our systems
significantly impacts Enable's ability to obtain new volumes of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil on its systems. If Enable is not
able to obtain new volumes of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil to replace the natural decline in volumes from existing wells,
throughput on its gathering, processing, transportation and storage facilities would decline, which could adversely affect its
financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy. Enable has
no control over producers or their drilling and production decisions, which are affected by, among other things:

•
•
•
•
•
•
•

•

the availability and cost of capital;
prevailing and projected commodity prices, including the prices of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil;
demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil;
levels of reserves;
geological considerations;
global or national health events, including epidemics and pandemics such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic;
environmental or other governmental regulations, including the availability of drilling permits, the regulation of
hydraulic fracturing and the regulation of air emissions; and
the availability of drilling rigs and other costs of production and equipment.

Fluctuations in energy prices can also greatly affect the development of new natural gas, NGLs and crude oil reserves.
Drilling and production activity generally decreases as commodity prices decrease. In general terms, the prices of natural gas,
NGLs, crude oil and other hydrocarbon products fluctuate in response to changes in supply and demand, market uncertainty and
a variety of additional factors that are beyond its control. Because of these and other factors, even if new reserves are known to
exist in areas served by Enable's assets, producers may choose not to develop those reserves. Declines in natural gas, NGLs or
crude oil prices can have a negative impact on exploration, development and production activity and, if sustained, could lead to
decreases in such activity. For instance, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected Enable's business by (i)
reducing the demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil due to reduced global and national economic activity, leading to
significantly lower prices for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil, (ii) impairing the supply chain of certain Enable customers for
which it provides gathering and processing services, which could lead to further reduction of the utilization of Enable's systems,
and (iii) reducing producer activity across Enable's footprint, which is expected to continue to result in reduced utilization of its
services. Enable currently cannot predict the duration or magnitude of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on supply and
demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil or the exploration, development and production activity of the producers across its
areas of operation. In addition, concerns about global economic growth, as well as uncertainty regarding the timing, pace and
extent of an economic recovery in the U.S. and abroad, have had a significant adverse impact on global financial markets and
commodity prices, and sustained low natural gas, NGLs or crude oil prices could also lead producers to shut in production from
their existing wells. Sustained reductions in exploration or production activity in its areas of operation could lead to further
reductions in the utilization of its systems, which could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to
make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy, and result in the impairment of its assets.

In addition, it may be more difficult to maintain or increase the current volumes on its gathering systems and in its
processing plants, as several of the formations in the unconventional resource plays in which Enable operates generally have
higher initial production rates and steeper production decline curves than wells in more conventional basins. Should Enable
determine that the economics of its gathering assets do not justify the capital expenditures needed to grow or maintain volumes
associated therewith, it may reduce such capital expenditures, which could cause revenues associated with these assets to
decline over time.

21

Enable's industry is highly competitive and increased competitive pressure could adversely affect its financial position,
results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable competes with other midstream service providers in its areas of operation. The principal elements of
competition for both gathering and processing services and transportation and storage services are rates, terms of service,
flexibility and reliability. Competitors include other midstream service providers, including those affiliated with producers, that
may have greater financial resources or greater access to new volumes of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil than Enable does.
Some of these competitors may create additional competition by expanding existing or constructing new gathering, processing,
transportation and storage systems. Enable's producer customers may become competitors by developing their own midstream
systems. Excess gathering, processing, transportation or storage capacity in the areas Enable serves may increase competitive
pressure by decreasing rates and adversely impact the ability to renew existing or enter into new contracts. Natural gas, NGLs
and crude oil used as or to produce fuel compete with other forms of energy, including electricity and coal. Increased demand
for one form of energy over another could lead to a reduction in demand for associated midstream services. All of these
competitive pressures could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to
unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Natural gas, NGLs and crude oil prices are volatile, and changes in these prices could adversely affect Enable's financial
position, results of operations and its ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy. Prices for all
three of these commodities have been adversely affected by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, with crude oil prices
reaching historic lows in April 2020.

the availability and marketing of competitive fuels,

Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to OGE Energy could be
negatively affected by adverse changes in the prices of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil depending on factors that are beyond its
control. These factors include demand for these commodities, which fluctuates with changes in market and economic conditions
and other factors, including the impact of seasonality and weather, general economic conditions, the level of domestic and
offshore natural gas production and consumption, the availability of imported natural gas, liquefied natural gas, NGLs and
crude oil, actions taken by foreign natural gas and oil producing nations, the availability of local, intrastate and interstate
transportation systems,
the impact of energy conservation efforts,
technological advances affecting energy consumption, global or national health concerns and the extent of governmental
regulation and taxation. For example, the price of, and demand for, natural gas, NGLs and crude oil declined significantly in
response to the ongoing spread and economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including significant governmental measures
being implemented to control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, travel restrictions and business shutdowns and
Russia's March 2020 rejection of a plan backed by Saudi Arabia and other members of OPEC to reduce production of crude oil
in response to declining global demand. Following the rejection of the plan, Saudi Arabia significantly reduced the prices at
which it sells crude oil, and both Saudi Arabia and Russia announced plans to increase production. While a coalition of 23
nations led by Saudi Arabia and Russia subsequently agreed to reduce production of crude oil by 9.7 million barrels per day in
May and June of 2020, NGLs and crude oil prices have remained depressed. These events, combined with the continuing
COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainty regarding the length of time it will take for the U.S. and the rest of the world to slow the
spread of COVID-19 to the point where applicable authorities are comfortable easing current restrictions on various commercial
and economic activities, contributed to a sharp drop in prices for crude oil in the first and second quarters of 2020.

Enable's natural gas processing arrangements expose Enable to commodity price fluctuations. In 2020, 6 percent, 33
percent and 61 percent of Enable's processing plant inlet volumes consisted of keep-whole arrangements, percent-of-proceeds
or percent-of-liquids and fee-based, respectively. If the price at which Enable sells natural gas or NGLs is less than the cost at
which it purchases natural gas or NGLs under these arrangements, then its financial position, results of operations and ability to
make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected. Enable uses certain derivative
instruments to manage its commodity price risk exposures.

At any given time, Enable's overall portfolio of processing contracts may reflect a net short position in natural gas
(meaning that it is a net buyer of natural gas) and a net long position in NGLs (meaning that it is a net seller of NGLs). As a
result, Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE
Energy, could be adversely affected to the extent the price of NGLs decreases in relation to the price of natural gas.

A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, may materially adversely
affect Enable's business.

A global or national pandemic, such as COVID-19, may cause disruptions to Enable's business and operational plans,
which may include (i) shortages of employees, (ii) unavailability of contractors and subcontractors, (iii) interruption of supplies

22

from third parties upon which Enable relies, (iv) recommendations of, or restrictions imposed by, government and health
authorities, including quarantines, travel restrictions and business shutdowns, to address the COVID-19 pandemic and (v)
restrictions that Enable and its contractors and subcontractors impose, including facility shutdowns, to ensure the safety of
employees and others. For example, many of Enable's employees have been temporarily required to work remotely which may
disrupt Enable's operations or increase the risk of a cybersecurity incident. While it is not possible to predict their extent or
duration, these disruptions may have a material adverse effect on Enable's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns regarding its continued global spread have negatively impacted
domestic and international demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil, which has and could continue to contribute to price
volatility and materially and adversely affect Enable's customers' operations and future production, resulting in less demand for
Enable's services and/or the reduction of commercial opportunities that might otherwise be available to Enable. The effects of
the COVID-19 pandemic have also negatively impacted domestic and international economic conditions, which has and could
continue to contribute to price declines and volatility in the financial markets. While it is not possible to predict their extent or
duration, these economic conditions could materially and adversely affect the availability of debt or equity financing to Enable,
which may result in a significant reduction of Enable's liquidity.

Enable provides certain transportation and storage services under fixed-price "negotiated rate" contracts that are not
subject to adjustment, even if the cost to perform such services exceeds the revenues received from such contracts, and, as a
result, costs could exceed revenues received under such contracts.

Enable has been authorized by the FERC to provide transportation and storage services at its facilities at negotiated
rates. As of December 31, 2020, approximately 37 percent of Enable's aggregate contracted firm transportation capacity on
EGT and MRT and 52 percent of its aggregate contracted firm storage capacity on EGT and MRT was subscribed under such
"negotiated rate" contracts. These contracts generally do not include provisions allowing for adjustment for increased costs due
to inflation, pipeline safety activities or other factors that are not tied to an applicable tracking mechanism authorized by the
FERC. Successful recovery of any shortfall of revenue, representing the difference between "recourse rates" (if higher) and
negotiated rates, is not assured under current FERC policies. If Enable's costs increase and it is not able to recover any shortfall
of revenue associated with its negotiated rate contracts, the cash flow realized by its systems could decrease and, therefore, the
cash Enable has available for distribution to its unitholders, including OGE Energy, could also decrease.

If third-party pipelines and other facilities interconnected to Enable's gathering, processing or transportation facilities
become partially or fully unavailable to Enable for any reason, Enable's financial position, results of operations and its
ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected.

Enable depends upon (i) third-party pipelines to deliver natural gas to, and take natural gas from, its natural gas
transportation systems, (ii) third-party pipelines and other facilities to take crude oil, condensate and produced water from its
crude oil, condensate and produced water gathering systems, and, in some cases, (iii) third-party facilities to process natural gas
from its gathering systems. It also depends on third-party facilities to transport and fractionate NGLs that are delivered to the
third party at the tailgates of its processing plants. Fractionation is the separation of the heterogeneous mixture of extracted
NGLs into individual components for end-use sale. An outage or disruption on certain pipelines or fractionators operated by a
third party could result in the shutdown of certain of Enable's processing plants and gathering systems, and a prolonged outage
or disruption could ultimately result in a reduction in the volume of natural gas Enable gathers and NGLs it is able to produce.
For example, substantially all of the crude oil gathered by Enable's Williston Basin systems is delivered indirectly for transport
to the Dakota Access Pipeline. Although the crude oil gathered by Enable's Williston Basin crude oil systems may also be
delivered for transport to other pipelines, such as BakkenLink Pipeline and Enbridge North Dakota Pipeline, a shutdown of
Dakota Access Pipeline, or any other significant pipeline providing transportation services from the Williston Basin, could
result in the shut-in of wells connected to Enable's Williston Basin crude oil systems if its customers are unable to obtain
sufficient capacity on those pipelines at an effective cost. In July 2020, the federal district court for the District of Columbia
vacated the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' grant of an easement to Dakota Access Pipeline and issued an order requiring
Dakota Access Pipeline to be shut down and emptied of crude oil by August 5, 2020, pending the completion of an
environmental impact analysis for the pipeline. In January 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit affirmed the
district court's decision that the Corps of Engineers did not follow proper procedures to grant the easement but reversed the
district court's order requiring the pipeline to shut down. It can continue operating while the Corp of Engineers attempts to cure
the defects identified by the district court. Additionally, Enable depends on third parties to provide electricity for compression,
pumping and other operational activities at many of its facilities. Since it does not own or operate any of these third-party
pipelines or other facilities, continuing operation of those facilities is not within its control. If any of these third-party pipelines
or other facilities become partially or fully unavailable to Enable for any reason, its financial position, results of operations and
ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected.

23

Enable does not own all of the land on which its pipelines and facilities are located, which could disrupt its operations.

Enable does not own all of the land on which its pipelines and facilities have been constructed, and it is therefore
subject to the possibility of more onerous terms and/or increased costs to retain necessary land use if it does not have valid
rights-of-way or if such rights-of-way lapse or terminate. Enable may obtain the rights to construct and operate its pipelines for
a specific period of time on lands owned by governmental agencies, American Indian tribes or other third parties, including on
American Indian allotments, title to which is held in trust by the U.S. A loss of these rights, through its inability to renew right-
of-way contracts or otherwise, could cause a cease in operations temporarily or permanently on the affected land, increase costs
related to the construction and continuing operations elsewhere, and adversely affect its financial position, results of operations
and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

An impairment of long-lived assets, including intangible assets or equity method investments could reduce Enable's
earnings.

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite useful lives and property, plant and equipment, are evaluated
for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An
impairment of long-lived assets is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. Due to decreases
in natural gas and NGL market prices during 2020 as a result of the economic effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,
together with the dispute over crude oil production levels between Russia and members of OPEC led by Saudi Arabia, as of
March 31, 2020, Enable reassessed the carrying value of the Atoka assets, in which it owns a 50 percent interest in the
consolidated joint venture, which is a component of Enable's gathering and processing segment. Based on forecasted future
undiscounted cash flows, Enable determined that the carrying value of the Atoka assets were not fully recoverable and
recognized a $16 million impairment for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Equity method investments are evaluated for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value
of the investment might not be recoverable. An impairment of an equity method investment is recognized if the fair value of the
investment as a whole, and not the underlying assets, has declined and the decline is other than temporary. An example of an
investment that Enable accounts for under the equity method is its investment in SESH. If Enable enters into additional joint
ventures, it could have additional equity method investments. At September 30, 2020, Enable estimated the fair value of its
investment in SESH was below the carrying value and concluded the decline in value was other than temporary due to the
expiration of a transportation contract and then current status of renewal negotiations. As a result, Enable recorded a $225
million impairment on its investment in SESH for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Enable could experience future events or circumstances that result in an impairment of long-lived assets, including
intangible assets, equity method investments, or goodwill. If Enable recognizes an impairment, it would take an immediate non-
cash charge to earnings with a correlative effect on equity and balance sheet leverage as measured by debt to total
capitalization. As a result, an impairment could have an adverse effect on Enable's results of operations and its ability to satisfy
the financial ratios or other covenants under its existing or future debt agreements.

Enable's business involves many hazards and operational risks, some of which may not be fully covered by insurance.
Insufficient insurance coverage and increased insurance costs could adversely affect its financial position, results of
operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable's operations are subject to all of the risks and hazards inherent in the gathering, processing, transportation and

storage of natural gas and crude oil, including:

•

•
•

•
•

damage to pipelines and plants, related equipment and surrounding properties caused by hurricanes, tornadoes,
floods, fires, earthquakes and other natural disasters, acts of terrorism and actions by third parties;
inadvertent damage from construction, vehicles and farm and utility equipment;
leaks of natural gas, NGLs, crude oil and other hydrocarbons or losses of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil as a
result of the malfunction of equipment or facilities;
ruptures, fires and explosions; and
other hazards that could also result in personal injury and loss of life, pollution and suspension of operations.

These risks could result in substantial losses due to personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of
property, plant and equipment and pollution or other environmental damage. These risks may also result in curtailment or
suspension of its operations. A natural disaster or other hazard affecting the areas in which it operates could adversely affect
Enable's results of operations. Enable is not fully insured against all risks inherent in its business. Enable currently has general

24

liability and property insurance in place to cover certain of its facilities in amounts that it considers appropriate. Such policies
are subject to certain limits and deductibles. Enable has business interruption insurance coverage for some but not all of its
operations. Insurance coverage may not be available in the future at current costs or on commercially reasonable terms, and the
insurance proceeds received for any loss of, or any damage to, any of Enable's facilities may not be sufficient to restore the loss
or damage without adversely affecting its financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its
unitholders, including OGE Energy.

The use of derivative contracts by Enable and its subsidiaries in the normal course of business could result in financial
losses that could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and its ability to make cash distributions to
unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable and its subsidiaries periodically use derivative instruments, such as swaps, options, futures and forwards, to
manage its commodity and financial market risks. Enable and its subsidiaries could recognize financial losses as a result of
volatility in the market values of these contracts, or should a counterparty fail to perform. In the absence of actively quoted
market prices and pricing information from external sources,
instruments can involve
management's judgment or use of estimates. As a result, changes in the underlying assumptions or use of alternative valuation
methods could affect the reported fair value of these contracts.

the valuation of these financial

Failure to attract and retain an appropriately qualified workforce could adversely impact Enable's results of operations.

Enable's business is dependent on its ability to recruit, retain and motivate employees. Certain circumstances, such as
an aging workforce without appropriate replacements, a mismatch of existing skill sets to future needs, competition for skilled
labor or the unavailability of contract resources may lead to operating challenges such as a lack of resources, loss of knowledge
or a lengthy time period associated with skill development. Enable's costs, including costs for contractors to replace employees,
productivity costs and safety costs, may rise. Failure to hire and adequately train replacement employees, including the transfer
of significant internal historical knowledge and expertise to the new employees, or the future availability and cost of contract
labor may adversely affect Enable's ability to manage and operate its business. If Enable is unable to successfully attract and
retain an appropriately qualified workforce, its results of operations could be negatively affected.

As of December 31, 2020, Enable has 76 employees who are participants under OGE Energy defined benefit and
retiree medical plans, who are seconded to the Partnership, subject to certain termination rights of the Partnership and OGE
Energy. If seconding is terminated, employees of OGE Energy. that Enable determines to hire are under no obligation to accept
Enable's offer of employment on the terms Enable provides, or at all.

Cybersecurity attacks or other disruptions of Enable's systems, networks and technology could adversely impact Enable's
financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable has become increasingly dependent on the systems, networks and technology that it uses to conduct almost all
aspects of its business, including the operation of its gathering, processing, transportation and storage assets, the recording of
commercial transactions and the reporting of financial information. Enable depends on both its own systems, networks and
technology as well as the systems, networks and technology of its vendors, customers and other business partners. Any
disruption of these systems, networks and technology could disrupt the operation of Enable's business. Disruptions can result
from a variety of causes, including natural disasters, the failure of software or equipment and manmade events, such as
cybersecurity attacks or information security breaches. Cybersecurity attacks and information security breaches could result in
the unauthorized use of confidential, proprietary or other information and in the disruption of Enable's critical business
functions and operations, adversely affecting its reputation and subjecting it to possible legal claims and liability. In addition,
Enable is not fully insured against all cybersecurity risks.

As cybersecurity attacks continue to evolve, Enable may be required to expend significant additional resources to
continue to modify or enhance its protective measures or to investigate and remediate any vulnerabilities to cybersecurity
attacks. In particular, Enable's implementation of various procedures and controls to monitor and mitigate security threats and
to increase security for its personnel, information, facilities and infrastructure may result in increased capital and operating
costs. To date Enable has not experienced any material losses relating to cybersecurity attacks; however, there can be no
assurance that it will not suffer such losses in the future. Consequently, it is possible that any of these occurrences, or a
combination of them, could adversely affect Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash
distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

25

Terrorist attacks or other physical security threats could adversely affect Enable's business.

Enable's gathering, processing, transportation and storage assets may be targets of terrorist activities or other physical
security threats that could disrupt its ability to conduct its business. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination
of them, could adversely affect Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to
unitholders, including OGE Energy. In addition, any physical damage to Enable's assets resulting from acts of terrorism may
not be fully covered by Enable's insurance.

If Enable fails to maintain an effective system of internal controls, then it may not be able to accurately report financial
results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential unitholders could lose confidence in its financial reporting,
which would harm Enable's business and the trading price of its common units.

Effective internal controls are necessary for Enable to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud and operate
successfully as a public company. If its efforts to maintain an effective system of internal controls are not successful, it is
unable to maintain adequate controls over its financial processes and reporting in the future or it is unable to comply with its
obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, its operating results could be harmed or fail to meet its
reporting obligations. Ineffective internal controls also could cause investors to lose confidence in its reported financial
information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of Enable's common units.

Enable depends on a small number of customers for a significant portion of its gathering and processing revenues and its
transportation and storage revenues. The loss of, or reduction in volumes from, these customers could result in a decline in
sales of its gathering and processing or transportation and storage services and adversely affect its financial position, results
of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, 61 percent of Enable's natural gas gathered volumes were attributable to the
affiliates of Continental Resources, Inc., Vine Oil and Gas, GeoSouthern Energy Corporation, XTO Energy Inc. and Marathon
Oil Corporation and 46 percent of its transportation and storage service revenues were attributable to affiliates of CenterPoint,
Spire Inc., Continental Resources, Inc., American Electric Power Co. and OGE Energy. The loss of any portion of the
gathering, processing, transportation and storage systems serving any of these customers, the failure to extend existing contracts
at their expiration or the extension or replacement of these contracts on less favorable terms could adversely affect Enable's
financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable's exposure to credit risks of its customers, and any material nonpayment or nonperformance by its customers could
adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including
OGE Energy.

Some of Enable's customers may experience financial problems that could have a significant effect on its customers'
creditworthiness. Severe financial problems encountered by its customers could limit Enable's ability to collect amounts owed
to it, or to enforce performance of obligations under contractual arrangements. In addition, many of Enable's customers finance
their activities through cash flow from operations, the incurrence of debt or the issuance of equity. The combination of
reduction of cash flow resulting from declines in commodity prices, a reduction in borrowing bases under reserve-based credit
facilities and the lack of availability of debt or equity financing may result in a significant reduction of its customers' liquidity
and limit its customers' ability to make payments or perform on obligations to Enable. For example, some of Enable's customers
have experienced significantly reduced liquidity as a result of the economic effects caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Furthermore, some of Enable's customers may be highly leveraged and subject to their own operating and regulatory risks,
which increases the risk that they may default on their obligations to Enable. Financial problems experienced by its customers
could result in the impairment of its assets, reduction of its operating cash flows and may also reduce or curtail its customers'
future use of its products and services, which could reduce revenues.

Enable and its operating subsidiaries' debt levels may limit their flexibility in obtaining additional financing and in
pursuing other business opportunities.

As of December 31, 2020, Enable had approximately $4.0 billion of long-term debt outstanding, excluding the
premiums, discounts and unamortized debt expense on senior notes. In addition, as of December 31, 2020, Enable had $250
million outstanding under its commercial paper program. Enable also has a $1.75 billion revolving credit facility for working
capital, capital expenditures and other partnership purposes, including acquisitions, with no borrowings outstanding, of which
approximately $1.50 billion in borrowing capacity was undrawn as of December 31, 2020. As of January 29, 2021, Enable had
$204 million outstanding under its commercial paper program and $1.54 billion of undrawn borrowing capacity under its

26

revolving credit facility. Enable has the ability to incur additional debt, subject to limitations in its credit facilities. The levels of
debt could have important consequences, including the following:

•

•

•

•

the ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or
other purposes may be impaired or the financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all;
a portion of cash flows will be required to make interest payments on the debt, reducing the funds that would
otherwise be available for operations, future business opportunities and distributions;
the debt level will make Enable more vulnerable to competitive pressures or a downturn in the business or the
economy generally; and
the debt level may limit flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

Enable's and its operating subsidiaries' ability to service their debt will depend upon, among other things, their future
financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions, commodity prices and
financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond their control. If operating results are not sufficient to
service Enable's and its operating subsidiaries' current or future indebtedness, Enable and its subsidiaries may be forced to take
investments or capital
actions such as reducing distributions,
expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing debt, or seeking additional equity capital. These actions may not be
effected on satisfactory terms, or at all.

reducing or delaying business activities, acquisitions,

Enable's credit facilities contain operating and financial restrictions, including covenants and restrictions that may be
affected by events beyond its control, which could adversely affect its financial condition, results of operations and ability to
make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable's credit facilities contain customary covenants that, among other things, limit the ability to:

permit its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional debt;
incur or permit to exist certain liens on assets;
dispose of assets;

•
•
•
• merge or consolidate with another company or engage in a change of control;
•
•

enter into transactions with affiliates on non-arm's length terms; and
change the nature of its business.

Enable's credit facilities also require it to maintain certain financial ratios. Its ability to meet those financial ratios can
be affected by events beyond its control, Enable cannot assure it will meet those ratios. In addition, its credit facilities contain
events of default customary for agreements of this nature.

Enable's ability to comply with the covenants and restrictions contained in its credit facilities may be affected by
events beyond its control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. If market or other economic
conditions deteriorate, its ability to comply with these covenants may be impaired. If any of the restrictions, covenants, ratios or
tests in its credit facilities are violated, a significant portion of its indebtedness may become immediately due and payable. In
addition, its lenders' commitments to make further loans to Enable under the revolving credit facility may be suspended or
terminated. Enable might not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make these accelerated payments.

Any reductions in Enable's credit ratings could increase its financing costs and the cost of maintaining certain contractual
relationships.

Enable cannot provide assurance that its credit ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating
will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant. If any of Enable's credit
ratings are below investment grade, it may have higher future borrowing costs and it or its subsidiaries may be required to post
cash collateral or letters of credit under certain contractual agreements. If cash collateral requirements were to occur at a time
when Enable was experiencing significant working capital requirements or otherwise lacked liquidity, its financial position,
results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected.

27

Enable may not be able to recover the costs of its substantial planned investment in capital improvements and additions, and
the actual cost of such improvements and additions may be significantly higher than it anticipates.

Enable's business plan calls for investment in capital improvements and additions. The construction of additions or
modifications to Enable's existing systems, and the construction of new midstream assets, involves numerous regulatory,
environmental, political and legal uncertainties, many of which are beyond its control and may require the expenditure of
significant amounts of capital, which may exceed estimates. These projects may not be completed at the planned cost, on
schedule or at all. The construction of new pipeline, gathering, treating, processing, compression or other facilities is subject to
construction cost overruns due to labor costs, costs and availability of equipment and materials such as steel, labor shortages or
weather or other delays, inflation or other factors, which could be material. In addition, the construction of these facilities is
typically subject to the receipt of approvals and permits from various regulatory agencies. Those agencies may not approve the
projects in a timely manner, if at all, or may impose restrictions or conditions on the projects that could potentially prevent a
project from proceeding, lengthen its expected completion schedule and/or increase its anticipated cost. Moreover, revenues and
cash flows may not increase immediately upon the expenditure of funds on a particular project. For instance, if Enable expands
an existing pipeline or a constructs a new pipeline, the construction may occur over an extended period of time, and Enable may
not receive any material increases in revenues or cash flows until the project is completed. In addition, Enable may construct
facilities to capture anticipated future growth in production in a region in which such growth does not materialize. As a result,
the new facilities may not be able to achieve an expected investment return, which could adversely affect its financial position,
results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy.

In connection with its capital investments, Enable may estimate, or engage a third party to estimate, potential reserves
in areas to be developed prior to constructing facilities in those areas. To the extent Enable relies on estimates of future
production in deciding to construct additions to its systems, those estimates may prove to be inaccurate either in volume or
timing due to numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating future production. In addition, the construction of additions to
existing gathering and transportation assets may require new rights-of-way prior to construction. Those rights-of-way to
connect new natural gas supplies to existing gathering lines may be unavailable, and it may not be able to capitalize on
attractive expansion opportunities. Additionally, it may become more expensive to obtain new rights-of-way or to renew
existing rights-of-way. If the cost of renewing or obtaining new rights-of-way increases, its financial position, results of
operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy, could be adversely affected.

Enable's ability to grow is dependent in part on its ability to access external financing sources on acceptable terms.

Enable expects its operating subsidiaries will distribute all of their available cash to Enable and that it will distribute all
of its available cash to its unitholders. As a result, Enable and its operating subsidiaries rely significantly upon external
financing sources, including commercial bank borrowings and the issuance of debt and equity securities, to fund acquisitions
and expansion capital expenditures. To the extent Enable or its operating subsidiaries are unable to finance growth externally or
through internally generated cash flows, Enable's and its operating subsidiaries' cash distribution policy may significantly
impair Enable's and its operating subsidiaries' ability to grow. In addition, because Enable and its operating subsidiaries
distribute all available cash, Enable's and its operating subsidiaries' growth may not be as fast as businesses that reinvest their
available cash to expand ongoing operations.

To the extent Enable issues additional units in connection with any acquisitions or expansion capital expenditures, the
payment of distributions on those additional units may increase the risk that it will be unable to maintain or increase its per unit
distribution level, which in turn may impact the available cash that Enable has to distribute on each unit. There are no
limitations in the partnership agreement on its ability to issue additional units, including units ranking senior to the common
units. The incurrence of additional commercial borrowings or other debt by Enable or its operating subsidiaries to finance its
growth strategy would result in increased interest expense, which in turn may negatively impact the available cash that its
operating subsidiaries have to distribute to it, and thus that it has to distribute to its unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable depends in part on access to the capital markets and other external financing sources to fund its expansion
capital expenditures, although Enable has also increasingly relied on cash flow generated from its operations to fund its
expansion capital expenditures. Historically, unit prices of midstream master limited partnerships have experienced periods of
volatility. In addition, because Enable's common units are yield-based securities, rising market interest rates could impact the
relative attractiveness of its common units to investors. As a result of capital market volatility, Enable may be unable to issue
equity or debt on satisfactory terms, or at all, which may limit its ability to expand its operations or make future acquisitions.

28

Enable's merger and acquisition activities may not be successful or may result in completed acquisitions that do not
perform as anticipated, which could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations or future growth.

From time to time, Enable has made, and it intends to continue to make, acquisitions of businesses and assets. Such

acquisitions involve substantial risks, including the following:

•
•

•

•

•

acquired businesses or assets may not produce revenues, earnings or cash flow at anticipated levels;
acquired businesses or assets could have environmental, permitting or other problems for which contractual
protections prove inadequate;
it may assume liabilities that were not disclosed to it, that exceed its estimates, or for which its rights to
indemnification from the seller are limited;
it may be unable to integrate acquired businesses successfully and realize anticipated economic, operational and
other benefits in a timely manner, which could result in substantial costs and delays or other operational, technical
or financial problems; and
acquisitions, or the pursuit of acquisitions, could disrupt its ongoing businesses, distract management, divert
resources and make it difficult to maintain its current business standards, controls and procedures.

In addition, Enable's growth strategy includes, in part, the ability to make acquisitions on economically acceptable
terms. If Enable is unable to make acquisitions or if its acquisitions do not perform as anticipated, Enable's future growth may
be adversely affected.

Enable may be unable to obtain or renew permits necessary for its operations, which could inhibit its ability to do business.

Performance of its operations require it obtain and maintain a number of federal and state permits, licenses and
approvals with terms and conditions containing a significant number of prescriptive limits and performance standards in order
to operate. All of these permits, licenses, approval limits and standards require a significant amount of monitoring, record
keeping and reporting in order to demonstrate compliance with the underlying permit, license, approval limit or standard.
Noncompliance or incomplete documentation of Enable's compliance status may result in the imposition of fines, penalties and
injunctive relief. A decision by a government agency to deny or delay the issuance of a new or existing material permit or other
approval, or to revoke or substantially modify an existing permit or other approval, could adversely affect its ability to initiate
or continue operations at the affected location or facility and on its financial condition, results of operations and ability to make
cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy. For example, in April 2020, the federal district court for the District of
Montana issued an order vacating the Corps Clean Water Act Section 4040 Nationwide Permit 12, which authorizes pipeline
crossings of streams and wetlands. Subsequent proceedings limited this order to the Keystone XL pipeline, which is not related
to Enable's operations. Pending appeal of the court's decision, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has published a proposal to
reissue its existing Nationwide Permits and associated general conditions and definitions, with certain modifications, including
to the Corps Clean Water Act Section 4040 Nationwide Permit 12. While the full extent and impact of the court's action, as well
as the proposed Corps Clean Water Act Section 4040 Nationwide Permit 12 re-issuance, is unclear at this time, a disruption in
Enable's ability to obtain coverage under the Corps Clean Water Act Section 4040 Nationwide Permit 12 or other general
permits may result in increased costs and project delays if Enable is required to seek individual permits from the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers.

Additionally, in order to obtain permits and renewals of permits and other approvals in the future, Enable may be
required to prepare and present data to governmental authorities pertaining to the potential adverse impact that any proposed
pipeline or processing-related activities may have on the environment, individually or in the aggregate, including on public and
lands. Certain approval procedures may require preparation of archaeological surveys, wetland
American Indian tribal
delineations, endangered species surveys and other studies to assess the environmental impact of new sites or the expansion of
existing sites. Compliance with these regulatory requirements may be expensive and may significantly lengthen the time
required to prepare applications and to receive authorizations and consequently could disrupt Enable's project construction
schedules.

Enable's operations may be impacted by certain indigenous rights protections.

Parts of Enable's operations cross land that has historically been apportioned to various Native American tribes, who
may exercise significant jurisdiction and sovereignty over their lands. Enable's operations may be impacted to the extent these
tribal governments are found to have and choose to act upon such jurisdiction over lands where it operates. For example, a U.S.
Supreme Court ruling in 2020 found that the Muscogee (Creek) Nation reservation in Eastern Oklahoma has not been
disestablished, and subsequent court rulings applying this precedent have found similarly for other reservations. This ruling
could lead to some confusion as to which agencies have authority to regulate activities in this area of Oklahoma.

29

Costs of compliance with existing environmental laws and regulations are significant, and the cost of compliance with
future environmental laws and regulations may adversely affect Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability
to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental statutes, rules and regulations relating to air
quality, water quality, waste management, wildlife conservation, natural resources and health and safety that could, among
other things, delay or increase costs of construction, restrict or limit the output of certain facilities and/or require additional
pollution control equipment and otherwise increase costs. For instance, in May 2016, the EPA issued final standards governing
methane emissions imposing more stringent controls on methane and volatile organic compounds emissions at new and
modified oil and natural gas production, processing, storage and transmission facilities. These rules have required changes to
Enable's operations, including the installation of new equipment to control emissions. In September 2020, the EPA finalized
amendments to the 2016 standards that removed Enable's transmission and storage segments from the oil and natural gas source
category and rescinded the methane-specific requirements for production and processing facilities. However, several lawsuits
have been filed challenging these amendments, and on January 20, 2021, President Biden signed an executive order calling for
the suspension, revision or recission of the September 2020 rule and the reinstatement or issuance of standards for new,
modified and existing oil and gas operations, including Enable's transmission and storage segments. As a result, Enable cannot
predict the scope of any final methane regulatory requirements or the cost to comply with such requirements. However, several
states are pursuing similar measures to regulate emissions of methane from new and existing sources. There are significant
capital, operating and other costs associated with compliance with these environmental statutes, rules and regulations. Future
federal and state regulations relating to Enable's gathering and processing, transmission and storage operations remain a
possibility and could result in increased compliance costs on Enable's operations. Furthermore, if new or more stringent federal,
state or local legal restrictions are adopted in areas where Enable's crude oil and natural gas exploration and production
customers operate, they could incur potentially significant added costs to comply with such requirements, experience delays or
curtailment in the pursuit of exploration, development, or production activities, and perhaps even be precluded from drilling
wells, some or all of which could adversely affect demand for Enable's services to those customers.

There is inherent risk of the incurrence of environmental costs and liabilities in Enable's operations due to the handling
of natural gas, NGLs, crude oil and produced water as well as air emissions related to its operations and historical industry
operations and waste disposal practices. These matters are subject to stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and
regulations governing environmental protection, including the discharge of materials into the environment and the protection of
plants, wildlife, and natural and cultural resources. These laws and regulations can restrict or impact business activities in many
ways, such as restricting the handling or disposing of wastes or requiring remedial action to mitigate pollution conditions that
may be caused by its operations or that are attributable to former operators. Joint and several strict liability may be incurred,
without regard to fault, under certain of these environmental laws and regulations in connection with discharges or releases of
wastes on, under or from its properties and facilities, many of which have been used for midstream activities for a number of
years, oftentimes by third parties not under its control. Private parties, including the owners of the properties through which its
gathering and transportation systems pass and facilities where its wastes are taken for reclamation or disposal, may also have
the right to pursue legal actions to enforce compliance, as well as to seek damages for non- compliance, with environmental
laws and regulations or for personal injury or property damage. For example, an accidental release from one of its pipelines
could subject them to substantial liabilities arising from environmental cleanup and restoration costs, claims made by
neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury and property damage and fines or penalties for related
violations of environmental laws or regulations. Enable may be unable to recover these costs from insurance. Moreover, the
possibility exists that stricter laws, regulations or enforcement policies could significantly increase compliance costs and the
cost of any remediation that may become necessary. Further, stricter requirements could negatively impact its customers'
production and operations, resulting in less demand for its services.

Increased regulation of hydraulic fracturing and wastewater injection wells could result in reductions or delays in natural
gas and crude oil production by Enable's customers, which could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations
and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Hydraulic fracturing is a common practice that is used by many of Enable's customers to stimulate production of
natural gas and crude oil from dense subsurface rock formations. The hydraulic fracturing process involves the injection of
water, sand, and chemicals under pressure into targeted subsurface formations to fracture the surrounding rock and stimulate
production. Hydraulic fracturing typically is regulated by state oil and natural gas commissions. In addition, certain federal
agencies have proposed additional laws and regulations to more closely regulate the hydraulic fracturing process. The EPA has
also issued regulations and guidance for hydraulic fracturing operations under several statutes.

30

Some states have adopted, and other states have considered adopting, legal requirements that could impose more
stringent permitting, public disclosure or well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing activities. Local government
also may seek to adopt ordinances within their jurisdictions regulating the time, place and manner of drilling activities in
general or hydraulic fracturing activities in particular, in some cases banning hydraulic fracturing entirely. If new or more
stringent federal, state or local legal restrictions relating to the hydraulic fracturing process are adopted in areas where Enable's
oil and natural gas exploration and production customers operate, they could incur potentially significant added costs to comply
with such requirements, experience delays or curtailment in the pursuit of exploration, development, or production activities,
and perhaps even be precluded from drilling wells, some or all of which activities could adversely affect demand for Enable's
services to those customers.

State and federal regulatory agencies have also focused on a possible connection between the operation of injection
wells used for oil and gas waste disposal and seismic activity. Similar concerns have been raised that hydraulic fracturing may
also contribute to seismic activity. When caused by human activity, such events are called induced seismicity. Some state
regulatory agencies have adopted their regulations or issued orders to address induced seismicity. For example, the OCC has
implemented volume reduction plans, and at times required shut-ins, for disposal wells injecting wastewater from oil and gas
operations into the Arbuckle formation. Certain environmental and other groups have also suggested that additional federal,
state and local laws and regulations may be needed to more closely regulate the hydraulic fracturing process. Enable cannot
predict whether additional federal, state or local laws or regulations applicable to hydraulic fracturing will be enacted in the
future and, if so, what actions any such laws or regulations would require or prohibit. Increased regulation and attention given
to induced seismicity could lead to greater opposition to, and litigation concerning, oil and gas activities utilizing hydraulic
fracturing or injection wells for waste disposal. Additional legislation or regulation could also lead to operational delays or
increased operating costs for Enable's customers, which in turn could reduce the demand for Enable's services.

Other governmental agencies, including the U.S. Department of Energy, have evaluated or are evaluating various other
aspects of hydraulic fracturing. These ongoing or proposed studies, depending on their degree of pursuit and any meaningful
results obtained, could spur initiatives to further regulate hydraulic fracturing or other regulatory mechanisms.

Enable and its customers' operations are subject to a series of risks arising out of the threat of climate change that could
result in increased operating costs, adversely impact Enable's results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to
unitholders, including OGE Energy, limit the areas in which oil and natural gas production may occur and reduce demand
for the products and services Enable provides.

The threat of possible global climate change continues to attract considerable attention in the U.S. and in foreign
countries. Numerous proposals have been made and could continue to be made at the international, national, regional and state
levels of government to monitor and limit existing emissions of greenhouse gases as well as to restrict or eliminate such future
emissions. As a result, Enable's operations as well as the operations of its crude oil and natural gas exploration and production
customers are subject to a series of regulatory, political, litigation and financial risks associated with the production and
processing of fossil fuels and emission of greenhouse gases.

In the U.S., no comprehensive climate change legislation has been implemented at the federal level. However,
following the U.S. Supreme Court finding that greenhouse gas emissions constitute a pollutant under the Clean Air Act, the
EPA has adopted regulations that, among other things, establish construction and operating permit reviews for greenhouse gas
emissions from certain large stationary sources, require the monitoring and annual reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from
certain petroleum and natural gas system sources in the U.S., and together with the Department of Transportation, implement
greenhouse gas emissions limits on vehicles manufactured for operation in the U.S. The regulation of methane from oil and gas
facilities has been subject to uncertainty in recent years. For more information, see the risk factor, "Costs of compliance with
existing environmental laws and regulations are significant, and the cost of compliance with future environmental laws and
regulations may adversely affect Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to
unitholders, including OGE Energy," above. Additionally, various states and groups of states have adopted or are considering
adopting legislation, regulations or other regulatory initiatives that are focused on such areas as greenhouse gas cap and trade
programs, carbon taxes, reporting and tracking programs and restriction of emissions. Internationally, the United Nations
sponsored Paris Agreement requires member states to individually determine and submit non-binding emissions reduction
targets every five years after 2020. The U.S. had officially withdrawn from the "Paris Agreement" on November 4, 2020.
However, newly elected President Biden announced on January 20, 2021 that the U.S. would rejoin the agreement and called on
the federal government to begin formulating the U.S.'s nationally determined emissions reduction targets under the agreement.

Governmental, scientific and public concern over the threat of climate change arising from greenhouse gas emissions
has resulted in increasing political risks in the U.S., including climate change related pledges, made by certain candidates
recently elected to public office. These have included promises to limit emissions and curtail the production of oil and gas, such

31

as through the cessation of leasing public land for hydrocarbon development. For example, on January 27, 2021, President
Biden issued an executive order that commits to substantial action on climate change, calling for, among other things, the
increased use of zero-emissions vehicles by the federal government, the elimination of subsidies provided to the fossil fuel
industry and increased emphasis on climate-related risk across governmental agencies and economic sectors. Separately, on
January 20, 2021, the Acting Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior issued an order that, among other things, imposed
a temporary suspension on the issuance of fossil fuel authorizations, including leases and permits, on federal lands. Although
the order says it does not limit existing operations under valid leases, on January 27, 2021, President Biden signed an executive
order suspending new oil and gas leasing on federal lands, pending completion of a review of the federal government's oil and
gas permitting and leasing practices. Other actions that could be pursued by the Biden Administration may include the
imposition of more restrictive requirements for the establishment of pipeline infrastructure or the permitting of liquefied natural
gas export facilities. Litigation risks are also increasing, as a number of cities and other local governments have sought to bring
suit against the largest oil and natural gas companies in state or federal court, alleging, among other things, that such companies
created public nuisances by producing fuels that contributed to climate change. Suits have also been brought against such
companies under shareholder and consumer production laws, alleging that the companies have been aware of the adverse
effects of climate change but failed to adequately disclose those impacts.

There are also increasing financial risks for fossil fuel producers as shareholders currently invested in fossil-fuel
energy companies may elect in the future to shift some or all of their investments into other related sectors. Institutional lenders
who provide financing to fossil-fuel energy companies also have become more attentive to sustainable lending practices and
some of them may elect not to provide funding for fossil fuel energy companies. There is also a risk that financial institutions
will be required to adopt policies that have the effect of reducing the funding provided to the fossil fuel sector. Recently, the
Federal Reserve announced that it has applied to join the Network for Greening the Financial System, a consortium of financial
regulators focused on addressing climate-related risks in the financial sector. A material reduction in the capital available to the
fossil fuel industry could make it more difficult to secure funding for exploration, development, production, transportation and
processing activities, which could result in decreased demand for Enable's services.

The adoption and implementation of new or more stringent international, federal or state legislation, regulations or
other regulatory initiatives that impose more stringent standards for greenhouse gas emissions from the oil and natural gas
sector or otherwise restrict the areas in which this sector may produce oil and natural gas or generate greenhouse gas emissions
could result in increased costs of compliance or costs of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for, oil and natural gas, which
could reduce demand for Enable's services and products. Additionally, political, litigation and financial risks may result in
Enable's oil and natural gas customers restricting or canceling production activities, incurring liability for infrastructure
damages as a result of climatic changes or impairing their ability to continue to operate in an economic manner, which also
could reduce demand for Enable's services and products. One or more of these developments could have a material adverse
effect on Enable's business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders,
including OGE Energy.

Finally, many scientists have concluded that increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere
may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, floods
and other climatic events. If any such effects were to occur, they could adversely affect Enable's results of operations and ability
to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy. In addition, while Enable's consideration of changing weather
conditions and inclusion of safety factors in design covers the uncertainties that climate change and other events may
potentially introduce, its ability to mitigate the adverse impacts of these events depends in part on the effectiveness of its
facilities and disaster preparedness and response and business continuity planning, which may not have considered or be
prepared for every eventuality.

Enable's operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal regulatory authorities. Changes or additional regulatory
measures adopted by such authorities could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to make
cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy.

The rates charged by several of Enable's pipeline systems, including for interstate gas transportation service provided
by its intrastate pipelines, are regulated by the FERC. The FERC and state regulatory agencies also regulate other terms and
conditions of the services it may offer. If one of these regulatory agencies, on its own initiative or due to challenges by third
parties, were to lower its tariff rates or deny any rate increase or other material changes to the types or terms and conditions of
service it might propose or offer, the profitability of its pipeline businesses could suffer. If it were permitted to raise its tariff
rates for a particular pipeline, there might be significant delay between the time the tariff rate increase is approved and the time
that the rate increase actually goes into effect, which could also limit profitability. Furthermore, competition from other
transportation and storage systems may prevent them from raising its tariff rates even if permitted by regulatory agencies. The
regulatory agencies that regulate its systems periodically implement new rules, regulations and terms and conditions of services

32

subject to its jurisdiction. New initiatives or orders may adversely affect the rates charged for services or otherwise adversely
affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE
Energy.

Enable's natural gas interstate pipelines are regulated by the FERC under the Natural Gas Act of 1938, the Natural Gas
the FERC's authority over interstate natural gas

Policy Act of 1978 and the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Generally,
transportation extends to:

rates, operating terms, conditions of service and service contracts;
certification and construction of new facilities;
extension or abandonment of services and facilities or expansion of existing facilities;

•
•
• maintenance of accounts and records;
•

• market manipulation in connection with interstate sales, purchases or natural gas transportation; and
•

acquisition and disposition of facilities;
initiation and discontinuation of services;
depreciation and amortization policies;
conduct and relationship with certain affiliates;

various other matters.

Should Enable fail to comply with all applicable FERC-administered statutes, rules, regulations and orders, it could be
subject to substantial penalties and fines. Under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the FERC has civil penalty authority under the
Natural Gas Act of 1938 and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 to impose penalties for current violations of up to
approximately $1.3 million per day for each violation as well as possible criminal penalties.

The FERC's jurisdiction extends to the certification and construction of interstate transportation and storage facilities,
including, but not limited to expansions, lateral and other facilities and abandonment of facilities and services. Prior to
commencing construction of significant new interstate transportation and storage facilities, an interstate pipeline must obtain a
certificate authorizing the construction, or an order amending its existing certificate, from the FERC. Certain minor expansions
are authorized by blanket certificates that the FERC has issued by rule. Typically, a significant expansion project requires
review by a number of governmental agencies, including state and local agencies, whose cooperation is important in completing
the regulatory process on schedule. Any failure by an agency to issue sufficient authorizations or permits in a timely manner for
one or more of these projects may mean that Enable will not be able to pursue these projects or that they will be constructed in a
manner or with capital requirements that Enable did not anticipate. Enable's inability to obtain sufficient permits and
authorizations in a timely manner could materially and negatively impact the additional revenues expected from these projects.

The FERC conducts audits to verify compliance with the FERC's regulations and the terms of its orders, including
whether the websites of interstate pipelines accurately provide information on the operations and availability of services. The
FERC's regulations require uniform terms and conditions for service, as set forth in agreements for transportation and storage
services executed between interstate pipelines and their customers. These service agreements are required to conform, in all
material respects, with the standard form of service agreements set forth in the pipeline's FERC-approved tariff. Non-
conforming agreements must be filed with, and accepted by, the FERC. In the event that the FERC finds that an agreement, in
whole or part, is materially non-conforming, it could reject the agreement or require Enable to seek modification, or
alternatively require Enable to modify its tariff so that the non-conforming provisions are generally available to all customers.

The rates, terms and conditions for transporting natural gas in interstate commerce on certain of Enable's intrastate
pipelines and for services offered at certain of Enable's storage facilities are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC under
Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978. Rates to provide such interstate transportation service must be "fair and
equitable" under the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 and are subject to review, refund with interest if found not to be fair and
equitable, and approval by the FERC at least once every five years.

Enable's crude oil gathering systems in the Williston Basin are subject to common carrier regulation by the FERC
under the Interstate Commerce Act. The Interstate Commerce Act requires that Enable maintain tariffs on file with the FERC
setting forth the rates Enable charges for providing transportation services, as well as the rules and regulations governing such
services. The Interstate Commerce Act also requires, among other things, that Enable's rates must be "just and reasonable" and
that Enable provide service in a manner that is nondiscriminatory. Shippers on Enable's FERC-regulated crude oil gathering
systems may protest its tariff filings, file complaints against its existing rates, or the FERC can investigate Enable's rates on its
own initiative. If FERC finds that Enable's existing or proposed rates are unjust and unreasonable, it could deny requested rate
increases or could order Enable to reduce its rates and could require the payment of reparations to complaining shippers for up
to two years prior to the complaint.

33

Enable's operations may also be subject to regulation by state and local regulatory authorities. Changes or additional
regulatory measures adopted by such authorities could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and
ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy.

The pipeline operations of Enable that are not regulated by the FERC may be subject to state and local regulation
applicable to intrastate natural gas and transportation services. State and local regulations generally focus on safety,
in some circumstances, prohibition of undue discrimination among shippers. Additional rules and
environmental and,
legislation pertaining to these matters are considered and, in some instances, adopted from time to time. Enable cannot predict
what effect, if any, such changes might have on operations, but it could be required to incur additional capital expenditures and
increased costs depending on future legislative and regulatory changes. Other state and local regulations also may affect the
business. Any such state or local regulation could have an adverse effect on the business and the financial position, results of
operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

A change in the jurisdictional characterization of some of Enable's assets by federal, state or local regulatory agencies or a
change in policy by those agencies may result in increased regulation of its assets, which may cause its revenues to decline
and operating expenses to increase.

Enable's natural gas gathering and intrastate transportation systems are generally exempt from the jurisdiction of the
FERC under the Natural Gas Act of 1938, and its crude oil gathering system in the Anadarko Basin is generally exempt from
the jurisdiction of FERC under the Interstate Commerce Act. Nevertheless, FERC regulation may indirectly impact these
businesses and the markets for products derived from these businesses. The FERC's policies and practices across the range of its
oil and natural gas regulatory activities, including, for example, its policies on interstate open access transportation, ratemaking,
capacity release, and market center promotion may indirectly affect intrastate markets. In recent years, the FERC has pursued
pro-competitive policies in its regulation of interstate oil and natural gas pipelines. However, it cannot be assured that the FERC
will continue to pursue this approach as it considers matters such as pipeline rates and rules and policies that may indirectly
affect the intrastate natural gas transportation business. Although the FERC has not made a formal determination with respect to
all of Enable's facilities it considers to be engaged in natural gas gathering or a formal determination with respect to its facilities
that it considers to be engaged in intrastate crude oil gathering, Enable believes that its natural gas gathering facilities meet the
traditional tests that the FERC has used to determine that a pipeline is a natural gas gathering pipeline and Enable's intrastate
crude oil gathering facilities meet the traditional tests that the FERC has used to determine that a pipeline is not engaged in
interstate crude oil transportation. The distinction between FERC-regulated facilities, however, has been the subject of
substantial litigation, and the FERC determines whether facilities are subject to regulation under the Natural Gas Act of 1938 or
the Interstate Commerce Act on a case-by-case basis, so the classification and regulation of its facilities is subject to change
based on future determinations by the FERC, the courts or Congress. If the FERC were to consider the status of an individual
facility and determine that the facility and/or services provided by it are not exempt from FERC regulation, the rates for, and
terms and conditions of, services provided by such facility would be subject to regulation by the FERC. Such regulation could
decrease revenue, increase operating costs and, depending upon the facility in question, could adversely affect Enable's
financial condition, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders, including OGE Energy. In
addition, if any of Enable's facilities were found to have provided services or otherwise operated in violation of the Natural Gas
Act of 1938, Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 or Interstate Commerce Act regulations, this could result in the imposition of
substantial civil penalties, as well as a requirement to disgorge revenues collected for such services in excess of the maximum
rates established by the FERC.

Natural gas gathering and intrastate crude oil gathering may receive greater regulatory scrutiny at the state level;
therefore, these operations could be adversely affected should it become subject to the application of state regulation of rates
and services. Enable's gathering operations could also be subject to safety and operational regulations relating to the design,
construction, testing, operation, replacement and maintenance of gathering facilities. Enable cannot predict what effect, if any,
such changes might have on its operations, but it could be required to incur additional capital expenditures and increased costs
depending on future legislative and regulatory changes.

Enable may incur significant costs and liabilities resulting from compliance with pipeline safety laws and regulations,
pipeline integrity and other similar programs and related repairs.

Certain of Enable's pipeline operations are subject to pipeline safety laws and regulations. The U.S. Department of
Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration regulates safety requirements for the design,
construction, maintenance and operation of its jurisdictional natural gas and hazardous liquids pipeline facilities. All of Enable's
interstate and intrastate natural gas transportation pipeline facilities are Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration
jurisdictional and certain of Enable's natural gas gathering, NGLs and crude oil pipeline facilities are Pipeline and Hazardous

34

Materials Safety Administration jurisdictional. Among other things, these laws and regulations require pipeline operators to
develop integrity management programs, including more frequent inspections and other measures, for pipelines located in "high
consequence areas." The regulations require operators, including Enable, to, among other things:

•
•
•
•
•
•

perform ongoing assessments of pipeline integrity;
develop a baseline plan to prioritize the assessment of a covered pipeline segment;
identify and characterize applicable threats that could impact a high consequence area;
improve data collection, integration, and analysis;
repair and remediate pipelines as necessary; and
implement preventive and mitigating action.

Failure to comply with the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration or comparable state pipeline safety
regulations could result in a number of consequences which may have an adverse effect on Enable's operations. Enable incurs
significant costs associated with its compliance with existing Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and
comparable state pipeline regulations. Enable incurred maintenance capital expenditures and operation and maintenance
expenses of $66 million in 2020 and currently estimates that it will incur maintenance capital expenditures and operation and
maintenance expenses of up to $68 million in 2021 under its pipeline safety program, including costs related to integrity
assessments and repairs, threat and risk analyses, implementing preventative and mitigative measures, and conducting activities
to support the maximum allowable operating pressure for gas pipelines or the maximum operating pressure for hazardous liquid
pipelines. Enable may incur significant cost associated with repair, remediation, preventive and mitigation measures associated
with its integrity management programs for pipelines that are not currently subject to regulation by the Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration.

Changes to existing pipeline safety regulations may result in increased operating and compliance costs. For example,
in October 2019, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration published three final rules on pipeline safety that
create or expand reporting, inspection, maintenance and other pipeline safety obligations. While Enable has estimated the
impact of these rules on its future costs of operations, actual costs to comply may be significantly higher.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration is working on two additional rules related to gas pipeline
safety, though Enable cannot predict when they will be finalized. The rule entitled "Pipeline Safety: Safety of Gas Transmission
Pipelines, Repair Criteria, Integrity Management Improvements, Cathodic Protection, Management of Change, and Other
Related Amendments" is expected to adjust the repair criteria for pipelines in high consequence areas, create new criteria for
pipelines in non-high consequence areas, and strengthen integrity management assessment requirements. The rule entitled
"Safety of Gas Gathering Pipelines" is expected to require all gas gathering pipeline operators to report incidents and annual
pipeline data and to extend regulatory safety requirements to certain gas gathering pipelines in rural areas. The adoption of
these or other regulations requiring more comprehensive or stringent safety standards could require Enable to install new or
modified safety controls, pursue new capital projects or conduct maintenance programs on an accelerated basis, all of which
could require Enable to incur increased and potentially significant operational costs.

Financial reform regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act could adversely affect Enable's ability to use derivative
instruments to hedge risks associated with its business.

At times, Enable may hedge all or a portion of its commodity risk and its interest rate risk. The federal government
regulates the derivatives markets and entities, including businesses like Enable, that participate in those markets through the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act, which requires the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission to promulgate rules and regulations implementing the
legislation. Under the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's regulations, Enable is subject to reporting and recordkeeping
obligations for transactions involving non-financial swap transactions. The Commodity Futures Trading Commissions initially
adopted regulations to set position limits for certain futures and option contracts in the major energy markets and for swaps that
are their economic equivalents, but these rules were successfully challenged in federal district court by the Securities Industry
Financial Markets Association and the International Swaps and Derivatives Association and largely vacated by the court. In
December 2013, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission published a notice of proposed rulemaking designed to
implement new position limits regulation and in December 2016, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's re-proposal
position limits regulations. The ultimate form and timing of the implementation of the regulatory regime affecting commodity
derivatives remains uncertain.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has imposed mandatory clearing requirements on certain categories of
swaps, including certain interest rate swaps, but has exempted derivatives intended to hedge or mitigate commercial risk from
the mandatory swap clearing requirement, where a counterparty such as Enable has a required identification number, is not a

35

financial entity as defined by the regulations, and meets a minimum asset test. Enable's management believes its hedging
transactions qualify for this "commercial end-user" exception. The Dodd-Frank Act may also require Enable to comply with
margin requirements in connection with its hedging activities, although the application of those provisions to Enable is
uncertain at this time. The Dodd-Frank Act may also require the counterparties to its derivative instruments to spin off some of
their hedging activities to a separate entity, which may not be as creditworthy as the current counterparty.

The Dodd-Frank Act and related regulations could significantly increase the cost of derivatives contracts for Enable's
industry (including requirements to post collateral which could adversely affect Enable's available liquidity), materially alter the
terms of derivatives contracts, reduce the availability of derivatives to protect against risks Enable encounters, reduce its ability
to monetize or restructure its existing derivatives contracts, and increase its exposure to less creditworthy counterparties,
particularly if Enable is unable to utilize the commercial end user exception with respect to certain of its hedging transactions. If
Enable reduces its use of hedging as a result of the legislation and regulations, its results of operations may become more
volatile and its cash flows may be less predictable, which could adversely affect its ability to plan for and fund capital
expenditures and fund unitholder distributions. Finally, the legislation was intended, in part, to reduce the volatility of crude oil
and natural gas prices, which some legislators attributed to speculative trading in derivatives and commodity instruments related
to crude oil and natural gas. Enable's revenues could therefore be adversely affected if a consequence of the legislation and
regulations is to lower commodity prices. Any of these consequences could adversely affect its financial position, results of
operations and its ability to make cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable derives a substantial portion of its gross margin from subsidiaries through which it holds a substantial portion of its
assets.

Enable derives a substantial portion of its gross margin from, and holds a substantial portion of its assets through, its
subsidiaries. As a result, it depends on distributions from its subsidiaries in order to meet its payment obligations. In general,
these subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to provide Enable with funds for its payment
obligations, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or otherwise. In addition, provisions of applicable law, such as those
limiting the legal sources of dividends, limit its subsidiaries' ability to make payments or other distributions, and its subsidiaries
could agree to contractual restrictions on its ability to make distributions.

The right by Enable to receive any assets of any subsidiary, and therefore the right of its creditors to participate in
those assets, will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's creditors, including trade creditors. In addition,
even if Enable were a creditor of any subsidiary, its rights as a creditor would be subordinated to any security interest in the
assets of that subsidiary and any indebtedness of the subsidiary senior to that held by them.

Enable conducts a portion of its operations through joint ventures, which subjects them to additional risks that could
adversely affect the success of these operations and Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make
cash distributions to unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Enable conducts a portion of its operations through joint ventures with third parties, including Enbridge Inc., DCP
Midstream Partners, LP, CVR Energy, Inc., Trans Louisiana Gas Pipeline, Inc. and Pablo Gathering, LLC. It may also enter
into other joint venture arrangements in the future. These third parties may have obligations that are important to the success of
the joint venture, such as the obligation to pay their share of capital and other costs of the joint venture. The performance of
these third-party obligations, including the ability of the third parties to satisfy their obligations under these arrangements, is
outside the control of Enable. If these parties do not satisfy their obligations under these arrangements, Enable's business may
be adversely affected.

The joint venture arrangements of Enable may involve risks not otherwise present when operating assets directly,

including, for example:

•
•

•
•
•

•

joint venture partners may share certain approval rights over major decisions;
joint venture partners may not pay their share of the obligations, leaving Enable liable for their shares of joint
venture liabilities;
possible inability to control the amount of cash it will receive from the joint venture;
it may incur liabilities as a result of an action taken by its joint venture partners;
it may be required to devote significant management time to the requirements of and matters relating to the joint
ventures;
its insurance policies may not fully cover loss or damage incurred by both them and its joint venture partners in
certain circumstances;

36

•

•

its joint venture partners may be in a position to take actions contrary to its instructions or requests or contrary to
its policies or objectives; and
disputes between them and its joint venture partners may result in delays, litigation or operational impasses.

The risks described above or the failure to continue joint ventures or to resolve disagreements with joint venture
partners could adversely affect Enable's ability to transact the business that is the subject of such joint venture, which would in
turn adversely affect Enable's financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to unitholders,
including OGE Energy. The agreements under which certain joint ventures were formed may subject them to various risks,
limit the actions it may take with respect to the assets subject to the joint venture and require Enable to grant rights to its joint
venture partners that could limit its ability to benefit fully from future positive developments. Some joint ventures require
Enable to make significant capital expenditures. If it does not timely meet its financial commitments or otherwise do not
comply with its joint venture agreements, its rights to participate, exercise operator rights or otherwise influence or benefit from
the joint venture may be adversely affected. Certain of its joint venture partners may have substantially greater financial
resources than Enable has and it may not be able to secure the funding necessary to participate in operations its joint venture
partners propose, thereby reducing its ability to benefit from the joint venture.

Under certain circumstances, Enbridge Inc. could have the right to purchase an ownership interest in SESH at fair market
value.

Enable owns a 50 percent ownership interest in SESH. The remaining 50 percent ownership interests are held by
Enbridge Inc. As of December 31, 2020, CenterPoint owns 53.7 percent of Enable's common units, 100.0 percent of its Series
A Preferred Units and a 40 percent economic interest in Enable GP, LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the limited liability company
agreement of SESH, as amended, if, at any time, CenterPoint has a right to receive less than 50 percent of Enable's distributions
through its interests in Enable and in the general partner, or does not have the ability to exercise certain control rights, Enbridge
Inc. could have the right to purchase Enable's interest in SESH at fair market value, subject to certain exceptions.

The amount of cash Enable has available for distribution to its limited partners depends primarily on its cash flow rather
than on its profitability, which may prevent Enable from making distributions, even during periods in which it records net
income.

The amount of cash Enable has available for distribution depends primarily upon its cash flow rather than on
profitability. Profitability is affected by non-cash items but cash flow is not. As a result, Enable may make cash distributions
during periods when it records losses for financial accounting purposes and may not make cash distributions during periods
when it records net earnings for financial accounting purposes.

Affiliates of Enable's general partner, including CenterPoint and OGE Energy, may compete with Enable, and neither the
general partner nor its affiliates have any obligation to present business opportunities to Enable.

Under Enable's omnibus agreement, both CenterPoint and OGE Energy are prohibited from, directly or indirectly,
owning, operating, acquiring or investing in any business engaged in midstream operations located within the U.S., other than
through Enable. This requirement applies to both CenterPoint and OGE Energy for so long as either CenterPoint or OGE
Energy holds any interest in Enable's general partner or at least 20 percent of its common units. However, if CenterPoint or
OGE Energy acquires any business with midstream operations assets that have a value in excess of $50.0 million (or
$100.0 million in the aggregate with such party's other acquired midstream operations assets that have not been offered to
Enable), the acquiring party will be required to offer to Enable such assets for such value. If Enable does not purchase such
assets, the acquiring party will be free to retain and operate such midstream assets, so long as the value of the assets does not
reach certain thresholds.

As a result, under the circumstances described above, CenterPoint and OGE Energy have the ability to construct or
acquire assets that directly compete with Enable's assets. Pursuant to the terms of Enable's partnership agreement, the doctrine
of corporate opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, does not apply to Enable's general partner or any of its affiliates, including
its executive officers and directors and CenterPoint and OGE Energy. Any such person or entity that becomes aware of a
potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or other matter that may be an opportunity for Enable will not have any duty to
communicate or offer such opportunity to Enable. Any such person or entity will not be liable to Enable or to any limited
partner for breach of any fiduciary duty or other duty by reason of the fact that such person or entity pursues or acquires such
opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another person or entity or does not communicate such opportunity or
information to Enable. This may create actual and potential conflicts of interest between Enable and affiliates of its general
partner and result in less than favorable treatment of Enable and its common unitholders.

37

Enable may issue additional units without unitholder approval, which would dilute existing unitholder ownership interests.

Enable's partnership agreement does not limit the number of additional limited partner interests, including limited
partner interests that rank senior to the common units, that it may issue at any time without the approval of its unitholders. The
issuance by Enable of additional common units or other equity securities of equal or senior rank will have the following effects:

•
•
•

•
•
•

Enable's existing unitholders' proportionate ownership interest in Enable will decrease;
the amount of distributable cash flow on each unit may decrease;
because the amount payable to holders of incentive distribution rights is based on a percentage of the total
distributable cash flow, the distributions to holders of incentive distribution rights will increase even if the per unit
distribution on common units remains the same;
the ratio of taxable income to distributions may increase;
the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding unit may be diminished; and
the market price of the common units may decline.

In addition, upon a change of control or certain fundamental transactions, Enable's Series A Preferred Units are
convertible into common units at the option of the holders of such units. If a substantial portion of the Series A Preferred Units
were converted into common units, common unitholders could experience significant dilution. In addition, if holders of such
converted Series A Preferred Units were to dispose of a substantial portion of these common units in the public market, whether
in a single transaction or series of transactions, it could adversely affect the market price for Enable's common units. In
addition, these sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, could make it more difficult for Enable to sell its common
units in the future.

Affiliates of Enable's general partner may sell common units in the public or private markets, which could have an adverse
impact on the trading price of the common units and may sell their interest in its general partner, which may impact its
strategic direction.

As of January 29, 2021, CenterPoint held 233,856,623 of Enable's common units and 14,520,000 Series A Preferred
Units, and OGE Energy held 110,982,805 of Enable's common units. Enable's Series A Preferred Units are convertible into
common units upon a change of control or certain fundamental transactions at the option of the holders of such units. Both
Enable's common units held by CenterPoint and OGE Energy, as well as Enable's Series A Preferred Units held by CenterPoint,
are subject to certain registration rights. The sale of these units in the public or private markets could have an adverse impact on
the price of the common units or on any trading market that may develop. In addition, any sale of Enable's general partner by
CenterPoint or OGE Energy may impact Enable's strategic direction, business or results of operations.

Enable's Series A Preferred Units have rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the
rights of, holders of its common units.

Enable's Series A Preferred Units rank senior to all of its other classes or series of equity securities with respect to
distribution rights and rights upon liquidation. Enable cannot declare or pay a distribution to its common unitholders for any
quarter unless full distributions have been or contemporaneously are being paid on all outstanding Series A Preferred Units for
such quarter. These preferences could adversely affect the market price for Enable's common units or could make it more
difficult for Enable to sell its common units in the future.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Units will receive, on a non-cumulative basis and if and when declared by Enable's
general partner, a quarterly cash distribution, subject to certain adjustments, equal to an annual rate of 10 percent on the stated
liquidation preference from the date of original issue to, but not including, the five year anniversary of the original issue date,
and an annual rate of the London interbank offered rate, or LIBOR, plus a spread of 850 basis points on the stated liquidation
preference thereafter. In connection with certain transfers of the Series A Preferred Units, the Series A Preferred Units will
automatically convert into one or more new series of preferred units (the "other preferred units") on the later of the date of
transfer or the second anniversary of the date of issue. The other preferred units will have the same terms as Enable's Series A
Preferred Units except that unpaid distributions on the other preferred units will accrue from the date of their issuance on a
cumulative basis until paid. Enable's Series A Preferred Units are convertible into common units by the holders of such units in
certain circumstances. Payment of distributions on Enable's Series A Preferred Units, or on the common units issued following
the conversion of such Series A Preferred Units, could impact its liquidity and reduce the amount of cash flow available for
working capital, capital expenditures, growth opportunities, acquisitions, and other general partnership purposes. Enable's
obligations to the holders of Series A Preferred Units could also limit its ability to obtain additional financing or increase its
borrowing costs, which could have an adverse effect on its financial condition.

38

Enable's Series A Preferred Units contain covenants that may limit its business flexibility.

Enable's Series A Preferred Units contain covenants preventing it from taking certain actions without the approval of
the holders of 66 2/3 percent of the Series A Preferred Units. The need to obtain the approval of holders of the Series A
Preferred Units before taking these actions could impede Enable's ability to take certain actions that its management or its board
of directors may consider to be in the best interests of its unitholders. The affirmative vote of 66 2/3 percent of the outstanding
Series A Preferred Units, voting as a single class, is necessary to amend Enable's Partnership Agreement in any manner that
would or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the rights, preferences, obligations or privileges of
the Series A Preferred Units. The affirmative vote of 66 2/3 percent of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units and any
outstanding series of other preferred units, voting as a single class, is necessary to (A) create or issue certain party securities
with proceeds in an aggregate amount in excess of $700.0 million or create or issue any senior securities or (B) subject to
Enable's right to redeem the Series A Preferred Units, approve certain fundamental transactions.

Enable's Series A Preferred Units are required to be redeemed in certain circumstances if they are not eligible for trading
on the New York Stock Exchange, and Enable may not have sufficient funds to redeem its Series A Preferred Units if it is
required to do so.

The holders of Enable's Series A Preferred Units may request that Enable list those units for trading on the New York
Stock Exchange. If Enable is unable to list the Series A Preferred Units in certain circumstances, it will be required to redeem
the Series A Preferred Units. There can be no assurance that Enable would have sufficient financial resources available to
satisfy its obligation to redeem the Series A Preferred Units. In addition, mandatory redemption of Enable's Series A Preferred
Units could adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders,
including OGE Energy.

Enable's Pending Merger with Energy Transfer

Because the exchange ratio is fixed and because the market price of Energy Transfer’s common units may fluctuate,
Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, cannot be certain of the precise value of any merger consideration they may
receive in the Energy Transfer merger.

At the time the Energy Transfer merger is completed, each issued and outstanding common unit of Enable will be
converted into the right to receive the merger consideration of 0.8595 of one common unit representing limited partner interests
in Energy Transfer. The exchange ratio for the merger consideration is fixed, and there will be no adjustment to the merger
consideration for changes in the market price of Energy Transfer common units or Enable's common units prior to the
completion of the merger. If the merger is completed, there will be a time lapse between the date of signing the merger
agreement and the date on which Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, who are entitled to receive the merger
consideration actually receive the merger consideration. The market value of Energy Transfer's common units may fluctuate
during this period as a result of a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, changes in Energy
Transfer's businesses, operations and prospects and regulatory considerations. Such factors are difficult to predict and in many
cases may be beyond Enable's and Energy Transfer's control. The actual value of any merger consideration received by Enable's
unitholders, including OGE Energy, upon the completion of the merger will depend on the market value of the common units of
Energy Transfer at that time. This market value may differ, possibly materially, from the market value of Energy Transfer's
common units at the time the merger agreement was entered into or at any other time. Enable's unitholders, including OGE
Energy, should obtain current quotations for Energy Transfer's common units and for Enable's common units.

The merger may not be completed and the merger agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms.

The merger is subject to a number of conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to the completion of the merger,
including (i) the receipt of the required approvals from Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, (ii) the expiration or
termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, (iii) the absence of any governmental order or law that
prohibits or makes illegal the consummation of the merger, (iv) Energy Transfer common units issuable in connection with the
merger having been authorized for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance and (v)
Energy Transfer's registration statement on Form S-4 having been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933. The obligation of each party to consummate the merger is also conditioned upon
the other party's representations and warranties being true and correct (subject to certain materiality exceptions) and the other
party having performed in all material respects its obligations under the merger agreement. The obligation of Enable to
consummate the merger is further conditioned upon the receipt of a customary tax opinion of counsel to Enable that for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, subject to certain exceptions, (i) Enable should not recognize any income or gain as a result of the
merger and (ii) no gain or loss should be recognized by holders of Enable's common units or Series A Preferred Units as a result

39

of the merger. These conditions to the completion of the merger may not be satisfied or waived in a timely manner or at all, and,
accordingly, the merger may be delayed or may not be completed.

Moreover, if the merger is not completed by November 30, 2021, either Energy Transfer or Enable may choose not to
proceed with the Energy Transfer merger, and the parties can mutually decide to terminate the merger agreement at any time,
before or after approval by Enable's common unitholders, including OGE Energy. In addition, Energy Transfer and Enable may
elect to terminate the merger agreement in certain other circumstances as further detailed in the merger agreement.

The merger agreement limits Enable's ability to pursue alternatives to the merger.

The merger agreement contains provisions that may discourage a third party from submitting a competing proposal
that might result in greater value to Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, than the merger, or may result in a potential
competing acquirer proposing to pay a lower per unit price to acquire Enable than it might otherwise have proposed to pay.
These provisions include covenants not to solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or facilitate proposals relating to alternative
transactions or, subject to certain exceptions, enter into discussions concerning or provide any non-public information in
connection with alternative transactions.

Failure to complete the merger could negatively impact the price of Enable's common units, as well as Enable's future
businesses and financial results.

The merger agreement contains a number of conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to the completion of the
merger. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions to the completion of the merger will be so satisfied or waived. If
these conditions are not satisfied or waived, Enable will be unable to complete the merger.

If the merger is not completed for any reason, including the failure to receive the required approval of holders of
Enable's common units, including OGE Energy, Enable's future businesses and financial results may be adversely affected,
including as follows:

•

•

•

•
•

Enable may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on the market price
of Enable's common units;
the manner in which customers, vendors, business partners and other third parties perceive Enable may be negatively
impacted, which in turn could affect its marketing operations or its ability to compete for new business or obtain
renewals in the marketplace more broadly;
Enable will still be required to pay certain significant costs relating to the merger, such as legal, accounting, financial
advisor and printing fees;
Enable may experience negative reactions from employees; and
Enable will have expended time and resources that could otherwise have been spent on its existing businesses and the
pursuit of other opportunities that could have been beneficial to Enable.

In addition to the above risks, if the merger agreement is terminated and Enable's board of directors seeks an
alternative transaction, Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, cannot be certain that Enable will be able to find a party
willing to engage in a transaction on more attractive terms than the merger. If the merger agreement is terminated under
specified circumstances, Enable may be required to pay Energy Transfer a termination fee.

Enable will be subject to business uncertainties while the merger is pending, which could adversely affect its businesses.

Uncertainties about the effect of the merger on employees and customers may have an adverse effect on Enable. These
uncertainties may impair Enable's ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the merger is completed and for a
period of time thereafter and could cause customers and others that deal with Enable to seek to change their existing business
relationships with Enable. Employee retention may be particularly challenging during the pendency of the merger, as
employees may experience uncertainty about their roles with Energy Transfer following the merger. In addition, the merger
agreement restricts Enable from entering into certain corporate transactions and taking other specified actions without the
consent of Energy Transfer, and generally requires Enable to continue its operations in the ordinary course, until completion of
the merger. These restrictions may prevent Enable from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the
completion of the merger.

40

The common units representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer to be received by Enable's common
unitholders, including OGE Energy, upon completion of the merger will have different rights than Enable's common units.

Upon completion of the merger, Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy, will no longer be unitholders of Enable.
Instead, Enable's former unitholders, including OGE Energy, will become Energy Transfer unitholders and while their rights as
Energy Transfer unitholders will continue to be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware, their rights will be subject to and
governed by the terms of the Energy Transfer certificate of limited partnership, as amended, and the third amended and restated
agreement of limited partnership of Energy Transfer, as amended. The laws of the state of Delaware and terms of the Energy
Transfer certificate of limited partnership and the Energy Transfer third amended and restated agreement of limited partnership
are in some respects different than the terms of Enable's certificate of limited partnership and Enable's partnership agreement,
which currently govern the rights of Enable's unitholders, including OGE Energy.

Completion of the merger may trigger change in control or other provisions in certain agreements to which Enable is a
party.

The completion of the merger may trigger change in control or other provisions in certain agreements to which Enable
is a party. If Enable is unable to negotiate waivers of those provisions, the counterparties may exercise their rights and remedies
under the agreements, potentially terminating the agreements, or seeking monetary damages. Even if Enable is able to negotiate
waivers, the counterparties may require a fee for such waivers or seek to renegotiate the agreements on terms less favorable to
Enable.

Enable will incur significant transaction and merger-related costs in connection with the merger, which may be in excess of
those anticipated by Enable.

Enable has incurred and expects to continue to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with negotiating and
completing the merger, combining the operations of the two partnerships and achieving desired synergies. These fees and costs
have been, and will continue to be, substantial. The substantial majority of non-recurring expenses will consist of transaction
costs related to the merger and include, among others, employee retention costs, fees paid to financial, legal and accounting
advisors, severance and benefit costs and filing fees. Many of these costs will be borne by Enable even if the merger is not
completed.

Enable may be a target of securities class action and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs and may
delay or prevent the merger from being completed.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered
into merger agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and
divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative
impact on our liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting
completion of the merger, then that injunction may delay or prevent the merger from being completed, which may adversely
affect Enable's business, financial position and results of operation. Currently, Enable is unaware of any securities class action
lawsuits or derivative lawsuits having been filed in connection with the merger.

GENERAL RISKS

Governmental and market reactions to events involving other public companies or other energy companies that are beyond
our control may have negative impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows and access to
capital.

Accounting irregularities at public companies in general, and energy companies in particular, and investigations by
governmental authorities into energy trading activities and political contributions, could lead to public and regulatory scrutiny
and suspicion for public companies, including those in the regulated and unregulated utility business. Accounting irregularities
could cause regulators and legislators to review current accounting practices, financial disclosures and relationships between
companies and their independent auditors. The capital markets and rating agencies also could increase their level of
scrutiny. We believe that we are complying with all applicable laws and accounting standards, but it is difficult or impossible to
predict or control what effect any of these types of events may have on our business, financial position, cash flows or access to
the capital markets. It is unclear what additional laws or regulations may develop, and we cannot predict the ultimate impact of
any future changes in accounting regulations or practices in general with respect to public companies, the energy industry or our
operations specifically. Any new accounting standards could affect the way we are required to record revenues, expenses,
assets, liabilities and equity. These changes in accounting standards could lead to negative impacts on reported earnings or

41

decreases in assets or increases in liabilities that could, in turn, affect our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows.

Economic conditions could negatively impact our business and our results of operations.

Our operations are affected by local, national and worldwide economic conditions. The consequences of a recession
could include a lower level of economic activity and uncertainty regarding energy prices and the capital and commodity
markets. A lower level of economic activity could result in a decline in energy consumption, which could adversely affect our
revenues and future growth. Instability in the financial markets, as a result of recession or otherwise, also could affect the cost
of capital and our ability to raise capital. Economic conditions may also impact the valuation of certain long-lived assets,
including our investment in unconsolidated affiliates, that are subject to impairment testing, potentially resulting in impairment
charges, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. In March 2020, OGE Energy recognized an
impairment charge related to its investment in Enable, which resulted from decreased demand for commodities as a result of
COVID-19. The impairment charge had a material adverse impact on OGE Energy's results of operations for the year ended
December 31, 2020.

increased
Economic conditions may be impacted by insufficient financial sector liquidity leading to potential
unemployment, which could impact the ability of our customers to pay timely, increase customer bankruptcies, and could lead
to increased bad debt. If such circumstances occur, we expect that commercial and industrial customers would be impacted first,
with residential customers following.

In addition, economic conditions, particularly budget shortfalls, could increase the pressure on federal, state and local
governments to raise additional funds by increasing corporate tax rates and/or delaying, reducing or eliminating tax credits,
grants or other incentives that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows.

We are subject to financial risks associated with climate change.

Climate change creates financial risk. Potential regulation associated with climate change legislation could pose
financial risks to OGE Energy and its affiliates. On November 4, 2020, the U.S. officially withdrew from the United Nations'
"Paris Agreement" on climate change. Newly elected President Biden announced on January 20, 2021 that the U.S would rejoin
the agreement. The "Paris Agreement" or other legal requirements that result in enforceable greenhouse gas emission reduction
requirements could lead to increased compliance costs for OGE Energy and its affiliates. In addition, to the extent that any
climate change adversely affects the national or regional economic health through physical impacts or increased rates caused by
the inclusion of additional regulatory costs, CO2 taxes or imposed costs, OGE Energy and its affiliates may be adversely
impacted. There are also increasing risks for energy companies from shareholders currently invested in fossil-fuel energy
companies concerned about the potential effects of climate change who may elect in the future to shift some or all of their
investments into entities that emit lower levels of greenhouse gases or into non-energy related sectors. Institutional investors
and lenders who provide financing to fossil-fuel energy companies also have become more attentive to sustainable investing
and lending practices and some of them may elect not to provide funding for fossil fuel energy companies. To the extent
financial markets view climate change and emissions of greenhouse gases as a financial risk, this could negatively affect our
ability to access capital markets or cause us to receive less than ideal terms and conditions.

In addition, we may be subject to financial risks from private party litigation relating to greenhouse gas emissions.
Defense costs associated with such litigation can be significant and an adverse outcome could require substantial capital
expenditures and could possibly require payment of substantial penalties or damages. Such payments or expenditures could
affect results of operations, financial condition or cash flows if such costs are not recovered through regulated rates.

We are subject to cybersecurity risks and increased reliance on processes automated by technology.

In the regular course of our business, we handle a range of sensitive security and customer information. We are subject
to laws and rules issued by different agencies concerning safeguarding and maintaining the confidentiality of this information.
A security breach of our information systems such as theft or inappropriate release of certain types of information, including
confidential customer information or system operating information, could have a material adverse impact on our financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.

OG&E operates in a highly regulated industry that requires the continued operation of sophisticated information
technology systems and network infrastructure. Despite implementation of security measures, the technology systems are
vulnerable to disability, failures or unauthorized access. Such failures or breaches of the systems could impact the reliability of
OG&E's generation, transmission and distribution systems which may result in a loss of service to customers and also subject
OG&E to financial harm due to the significant expense to respond to security breaches or repair system damage. OG&E's Smart

42

Grid program further increases potential risks associated with cybersecurity attacks. Our generation and transmission systems
are part of an interconnected system. Therefore, a disruption caused by the impact of a cybersecurity incident of the regional
electric transmission grid, natural gas pipeline infrastructure or other fuel sources of our third-party service providers'
operations could also negatively impact our business. If the technology systems were to fail or be breached and not recovered in
a timely manner, critical business functions could be impaired and sensitive confidential data could be compromised, which
could have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Security threats continue to evolve and adapt. We and our third-party vendors have been subject to, and will likely
continue to be subject to, attempts to gain unauthorized access to systems, or confidential data, or to disrupt operations. None of
these attempts has individually or in aggregate resulted in a security incident with a material impact on our financial condition
or results of operations. Despite implementation of security and control measures, there can be no assurance that we will be able
to prevent the unauthorized access of our systems and data, or the disruption of our operations, either of which could have a
material impact. Our security procedures, which include among others, virus protection software, cybersecurity and our
business continuity planning, including disaster recovery policies and back-up systems, may not be adequate or implemented
properly to fully address the adverse effect of cybersecurity attacks on our systems, which could adversely impact our
operations.

We maintain property, casualty and cybersecurity insurance that may cover certain resultant cyber and physical
damage or third-party injuries caused by potential cyber events. However, damage and claims arising from such incidents may
exceed the amount of any insurance available and other damage and claims arising from such incidents may not be covered at
all. For these reasons, a significant cyber incident could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial
condition.

Terrorist attacks, and the threat of terrorist attacks, have resulted in increased costs to our business. Continued hostilities or
sustained military campaigns may adversely impact our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The long-term impact of terrorist attacks and the magnitude of the threat of future terrorist attacks on the electric utility
and natural gas midstream industry in general, and on us in particular, cannot be known. Increased security measures taken by
us as a precaution against possible terrorist attacks have resulted in increased costs to our business. Uncertainty surrounding
continued hostilities or sustained military campaigns may affect our operations in unpredictable ways, including disruptions of
supplies and markets for our products, and the possibility that our infrastructure facilities could be direct targets of, or indirect
casualties of, an act of terror. Changes in the insurance markets attributable to terrorist attacks may make certain types of
insurance more difficult for us to obtain. Moreover, the insurance that may be available to us may be significantly more
expensive than existing insurance coverage.

We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks.

The outbreak of COVID-19 continues to be a developing situation around the globe that has adversely impacted
economic activity and conditions worldwide. In particular, efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 have led to shutdowns of
various facilities as well as disrupted supply chains around the world. Efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 have also
resulted in remote work arrangements, increased unemployment, customer slow payment or non-payment and decreased
commercial and industrial load in the U.S. generally and in our service territory to a lesser extent. We expect these particular
COVID-19 impacts will likely continue in the near future. We are continuing to monitor developments involving our
workforce, customers and suppliers and cannot predict whether COVID-19 will have a material impact on our results of
operations, financial condition and prospects. However, an extended slowdown of the United States' economic growth, demand
for commodities and/or material changes in governmental policy could result in lower economic growth and lower demand for
electricity in our key markets as well as the ability of various customers, contractors, suppliers and other business partners to
fulfill their obligations, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and
prospects. Further, the negative impacts on the economy could also adversely impact the market value of the assets that fund
our pension plans, which could necessitate accelerated funding of the plans to meet minimum federal government requirements.

The effects of COVID-19 and concerns regarding its continued global spread have negatively impacted domestic and
international demand for natural gas, NGLs and crude oil, which has and could continue to contribute to price volatility and
materially and adversely affect Enable's customers' operations and future production, resulting in less demand for Enable's
services and/or the reduction of commercial opportunities that might otherwise be available to Enable. In response to sharp
declines in demand for oil and gas as well as commodity prices resulting from the economic impact of COVID-19, many
producers have significantly reduced previously anticipated drilling and production activities and may make additional
reductions in the future. Decreased demand for commodities as a result of COVID-19 impacted the valuation of OGE Energy's

43

investment in Enable, resulting in an impairment charge in March 2020 that had a material adverse impact on OGE Energy's
results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. Further, OGE Energy's operating cash flow is derived partially
from cash distributions it receives from Enable. In response to current industry conditions, Enable reduced its dividend
distribution by half, effective April 1, 2020. Prolonged decreased demand for commodities and/or further reductions in
distributions from Enable could materially adversely affect OGE Energy's results of operations, financial condition and cash
flows.

In addition, we cannot predict the ongoing impact that COVID-19 will have on our customers, suppliers, vendors and
other business partners and each of their financial conditions; however, any material effect on these parties could adversely
impact us. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate the other risks discussed within this Form 10-K, any of which could
have a material effect on us. As this situation continues and can change rapidly, additional impacts may arise that we are not
aware of currently.

We face certain human resource risks associated with the availability of trained and qualified labor to meet our future
staffing requirements.

Workforce demographic issues challenge employers nationwide and are of particular concern to the electric utility
industry. The median age of utility workers is higher than the national average. Over the next three years, 20 percent of our
current employees will meet the eligibility requirements to retire. Failure to hire and adequately train replacement employees,
including the transfer of significant internal historical knowledge and expertise to the new employees, may adversely affect our
ability to manage and operate our business.

Certain provisions in our charter documents have anti-takeover effects.

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as the Oklahoma corporation statute, may
have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of OGE Energy. Such provisions, including those
regulating the nomination of directors, limiting who may call special stockholders' meetings and eliminating stockholder action
by written consent, together with the possible issuance of preferred stock of OGE Energy without stockholder approval, may
make it more difficult for other persons, without the approval of our Board of Directors, to make a tender offer or otherwise
acquire substantial amounts of our common stock or to launch other takeover attempts that a stockholder might consider to be
in such stockholder's best interest.

We may be able to incur substantially more indebtedness, which may increase the risks created by our indebtedness.

The terms of the indentures governing our debt securities do not fully prohibit OGE Energy or OG&E from incurring
additional indebtedness. If we are in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in our revolving credit agreements and
the indentures governing our debt securities, we may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness. If we incur additional
indebtedness, the related risks that we now face may intensify.

Any reductions in our credit ratings or changes in benchmark interest rates could increase our financing costs and the cost
of maintaining certain contractual relationships or limit our ability to obtain financing on favorable terms.

We cannot assure you that any of the current credit ratings of the Registrants will remain in effect for any given period
of time or that a rating will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so
warrant. Our ability to access the commercial paper market could be adversely impacted by a credit ratings downgrade or major
market disruptions. Pricing grids associated with our credit facilities could cause annual fees and borrowing rates to increase if
an adverse rating impact occurs. The impact of any future downgrade could include an increase in the costs of our short-term
borrowings, but a reduction in our credit ratings would not result in any defaults or accelerations. Any future downgrade could
also lead to higher long-term borrowing costs and, if below investment grade, would require us to post collateral or letters of
credit.

Further, changes in benchmark interest rates, such as the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority's
announcement that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021, could result in increased financing costs. It is unclear
whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2021. The U.S. Federal
Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a
newly created index. If the method for calculation of LIBOR changes, if LIBOR is no longer available or if lenders have
increased costs due to changes in LIBOR, OGE Energy and OG&E may incur increases in interest rates on any borrowings and/
or may need to renegotiate our credit facilities that utilize LIBOR as a factor in determining the interest rate to replace LIBOR
with the new standard that is established.

44

Our debt levels may limit our flexibility in obtaining additional financing and in pursuing other business opportunities.

We have revolving credit agreements for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other corporate

purposes. The levels of our debt could have important consequences, including the following:

•

•

•

the ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or
other purposes may be impaired or the financing may not be available on favorable terms;
a portion of cash flows will be required to make interest payments on the debt, reducing the funds that would
otherwise be available for operations and future business opportunities; and
our debt levels may limit our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

We are exposed to the credit risk of our key customers and counterparties, and any material nonpayment or
nonperformance by our key customers and counterparties could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations
and cash flows.

We are exposed to credit risks in our generation and retail distribution operations. Credit risk includes the risk that
counterparties who owe us money or energy will breach their obligations. If the counterparties to these arrangements fail to
perform, we may be forced to enter into alternative arrangements. In that event, our financial results could be adversely
affected, and we could incur losses.

At December 31, 2020, OG&E's transmission system included: (i) 402 substations with a total capacity of 24.3 million
kV-amps and 5,122 structure miles of lines in Oklahoma and (ii) 36 substations with a total capacity of 3.8 million kV-amps
and 277 structure miles of lines in Arkansas. At December 31, 2020, OG&E's distribution system included: (i) 349 substations
with a total capacity of 10.4 million kV-amps, 29,443 structure miles of overhead lines, 3,202 miles of underground conduit and
11,038 miles of underground conductors in Oklahoma and (ii) 29 substations with a total capacity of 1.0 million kV-amps,
2,788 structure miles of overhead lines, 338 miles of underground conduit and 669 miles of underground conductors in
Arkansas.

During the three years ended December 31, 2020, both Registrants' gross property, plant and equipment (excluding
construction work in progress) additions were $2.6 billion, and gross retirements were $390.2 million. These additions were
provided by cash generated from operations, short-term borrowings (through a combination of bank borrowings and
commercial paper), long-term borrowings and permanent financings. The additions during this three-year period amounted to
19.9 percent of gross property, plant and equipment (excluding construction work in progress) for both Registrants at
December 31, 2020.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

In the normal course of business, the Registrants are confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent
liability. These generally relate to lawsuits or claims made by third parties, including governmental agencies. When appropriate,
management consults with legal counsel and other experts to assess the claim. If, in management's opinion, the Registrants have
incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are
reflected in the Registrants' financial statements. At the present time, based on currently available information, the Registrants
believe that any reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued amounts arising out of pending or threatened lawsuits or claims
would not be quantitatively material to their financial statements and would not have a material adverse effect on the
Registrants' financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following combined discussion is separately filed by OGE Energy and OG&E. However, OG&E does not make

any representations as to information related solely to OGE Energy or the subsidiaries of OGE Energy other than itself.

Introduction

OGE Energy is a holding company with investments in energy and energy services providers offering physical
delivery and related services for both electricity and natural gas primarily in the south central U.S. OGE Energy conducts these
activities through two business segments: (i) electric utility and (ii) natural gas midstream operations. The accounts of OGE
Energy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including OG&E, are included in OGE Energy's consolidated financial statements.
All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in such consolidation. OGE Energy generally uses the equity method
of accounting for investments where its ownership interest is between 20 percent and 50 percent and it lacks the power to direct
activities that most significantly impact economic performance.

OG&E. OGE Energy's electric utility operations are conducted through OG&E, which generates, transmits, distributes
and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. OG&E's rates are subject to regulation by the OCC, the APSC and
the FERC. OG&E was incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
OGE Energy. OG&E is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, and its franchised service territory includes Fort Smith,
Arkansas and the surrounding communities. OG&E sold its retail natural gas business in 1928 and is no longer engaged in the
natural gas distribution business.

Enable. OGE Energy's natural gas midstream operations segment represents OGE Energy's investment in Enable. The
investment in Enable is held through wholly-owned subsidiaries and ultimately OGE Holdings. Enable is primarily engaged in
the business of gathering, processing, transporting and storing natural gas. Enable's natural gas gathering and processing assets
are strategically located in four states and serve natural gas production in the Anadarko, Arkoma and Ark-La-Tex Basins.
Enable also owns crude oil gathering assets in the Anadarko and Williston Basins. Enable has intrastate natural gas
transportation and storage assets that are located in Oklahoma as well as interstate assets that extend from western Oklahoma
and the Texas Panhandle to Louisiana, from Louisiana to Illinois and from Louisiana to Alabama. At December 31, 2020, OGE
Energy owned 111.0 million common units, or 25.5 percent, of Enable's outstanding units. Enable's general partner is equally
controlled by OGE Energy and CenterPoint, who each have 50 percent management ownership. Based on the 50/50
management ownership, with neither company having control, OGE Energy accounts for its interest in Enable using the equity
method of accounting. For additional information on OGE Energy's equity investment in Enable and related party transactions,
see Notes 5 and 6 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Enable's business is impacted by commodity prices which have declined and otherwise experienced significant
volatility in recent years. Commodity prices impact the drilling and production of natural gas and crude oil in the areas served
by Enable's systems, and the volumes on Enable's systems can be negatively impacted if producers decrease drilling and
production in those areas served. Both Enable's gathering and processing segment and Enable's transportation and storage
segment can be affected by drilling and production. Enable's gathering and processing segment primarily serves producers, and
many producers utilize the services provided by Enable's transportation and storage segment. A decrease in volumes on
Enable's systems due to a decrease in drilling or production by Enable's producer customers could decrease the cash flows from
Enable's systems. In addition, Enable's processing arrangements expose them to commodity price fluctuations. A portion of

48

OGE Energy's earnings and operating cash flows depend on the performance of, and distributions from, Enable. As disclosed in
this Form 10-K, Enable is subject to a number of risks, including contract renewal risks, the reliance on the drilling and
production decisions of others and the volatility of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil prices. The effects of COVID-19, including
negative impacts on demand and commodity prices, could exacerbate these risks. If any of those risks were to occur, OGE
Energy's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

On February 12, 2021, Enable announced a quarterly dividend distribution of $0.16525 per unit on its outstanding
common units, which is unchanged from the previous quarter. If cash distributions to Enable's unitholders exceed $0.330625
per unit in any quarter, the general partner will receive increasing percentages, up to 50 percent, of the cash Enable distributes
in excess of that amount. OGE Energy is entitled to 60 percent of those "incentive distributions."

On February 16, 2021, Enable entered into a definitive merger agreement with Energy Transfer, pursuant to which,
and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement, all outstanding common units of Enable will be acquired by Energy
Transfer in an all-equity transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Enable's common unitholders, including OGE
Energy, will receive 0.8595 of one common unit representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer for each common unit
of Enable. The transaction is anticipated to close in 2021. The transaction is subject to the receipt of the required approvals from
the holders of a majority of Enable's common units, anti-trust approvals and other customary closing conditions. Assuming the
transaction closes, OGE Energy will own approximately three percent of Energy Transfer's outstanding limited partner units in
lieu of the 25.5 percent interest in Enable that it currently owns.

Recent Developments

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic, which continues to
spread throughout the U.S. and world. In an effort to contain COVID-19 or slow its spread, the U.S. federal, state and local
governments enacted various measures, including orders to close or place restrictions on businesses not deemed "essential,"
enact "shelter in place" restrictions on residents and practice social distancing when engaging in essential activities. The
COVID-19 outbreak has adversely impacted global markets and activity, including the energy industry, and it is impossible to
predict the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the situation continues to evolve. In Oklahoma City, OG&E's largest
service territory, the mayor's "shelter in place" order required residents to stay home except for certain "essential" activities and
closed down restaurant dining rooms, personal care services and other businesses that posed a high risk for spreading
COVID-19. The order was effective from March 16, 2020 to April 30, 2020. Beginning May 1, 2020, Oklahoma City began its
phased "re-opening," and there are currently no city-wide or state-wide "shelter in place" restrictions.

The Registrants' current and potential future responses to the COVID-19 impacts on their employees, customers and

shareholders are further discussed below.

•

•

•

•

•

The Registrants' top priority is to protect their employees and their families, as well as their customers. The
Registrants are taking all precautionary measures as directed by health authorities and local and national
governments. The Registrants continue to monitor the outbreak of COVID-19 and whether any occupancy
reductions or closures are necessary to help ensure the health and safety of their employees and customers. The
Registrants are also monitoring the status and availability of vaccinations in their service territories. In order to
promote the safety of the Registrants' employees and the continuity of utility service, the Registrants implemented
health-screening processes and increased sanitation efforts at their facilities and secured additional personal
protective equipment, among other additional measures taken. The OCC and the APSC both issued accounting
orders allowing the Registrants to defer these incremental costs incurred for recovery.
As a precautionary measure in order to increase the Registrants' cash positions and preserve financial flexibility in
light of current uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, in April 2020, OGE Energy entered into a
one-year $75.0 million term loan agreement, and OG&E issued $300.0 million in senior notes. The term loan was
fully repaid in September 2020.
In March 2020, President Trump signed into U.S. federal law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security
Act, or the "CARES Act," which is aimed at addressing the economic disruption resulting from the COVID-19
pandemic and providing certain tax relief to businesses in the U.S. The CARES Act, among other things, includes
provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of the employer portion of FICA payroll taxes, net
operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest
deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property.
The Registrants concluded that the financial impact of the provisions they adopted are immaterial.
OG&E voluntarily suspended all disconnects for nonpayment, effective March 16, 2020, and on June 25, 2020
announced that it would reinstate disconnects for nonpayment in Oklahoma, effective July 6, 2020. OG&E also
announced that it will provide broad payment options to customers who repay their past due balances, including a
six-month installment plan and the Average Monthly Billing plan which would spread past due balances over a
12-month period. OG&E adjusted its reserve on accounts receivable as of December 31, 2020 in light of the
current expected credit loss model (ASU 2016-13) and the COVID-19 pandemic. The adjustment, which was $1.3
million, incorporated concerns of continued slower customer payment due to unemployment. OG&E deferred this
credit reserve amount to a regulatory asset, as both the OCC and the APSC issued accounting orders allowing
OG&E to seek recovery of incremental bad debt resulting from COVID-19. OG&E will continue to monitor the
reserve as it gains better clarity on the impacts of COVID-19 on its customers and business.
Beginning in March 2020, oil and natural gas commodity prices have experienced extreme volatility, primarily
attributable to decreased demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions of the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil exporting nations. On April 1, 2020, Enable announced its plan to
reduce its quarterly distributions to its shareholders by 50 percent. This change in distribution, which should help
strengthen Enable's balance sheet and increase its annualized cash flows, is supported by OGE Energy. OGE
Energy does not foresee the need to access equity markets as a result of this reduction in distributions from
Enable.

50

OGE Energy's Equity Investment in Enable

Effective March 31, 2020, OGE Energy estimated the fair value of its investment in Enable was below the book value
and concluded the decline in value was not temporary due to the severity of the decline and recent rapid deterioration, as well as
the near term future outlook, of the midstream oil and gas industry. Accordingly, OGE Energy recorded a $780.0 million
impairment on its investment in Enable in March 2020. Further discussion can be found in Notes 5 and 7 within "Item 8.
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

During the year ended December 31, 2020, Enable recorded goodwill, long-lived asset and equity method investment
impairments and a loss on retirement that impacted OGE Energy's equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, as adjusted
for basis differences. Further discussion of these impacts can be found in "Results of Operations - OGE Holdings (Natural Gas
Midstream Operations)."

February 2021 Extreme Cold Weather Event

In February 2021, OG&E's service territory experienced an unprecedented, prolonged, cold spell that resulted in record
winter peak demand for electricity and extreme natural gas and purchased power prices. Estimates of the total regulatory asset
for OG&E's fuel and purchased power costs that will be recorded are still under development but are expected to be in the range
of $800.0 million to $1.0 billion. On February 24, 2021, OG&E submitted an application to the OCC requesting an intra-year
fuel clause increase to be effective April 1, 2021, as well as requesting regulatory asset treatment at OG&E's weighted average
cost of capital for the remaining fuel and purchased power costs associated with the unprecedented weather event. Further
discussion of the anticipated financial impact can be found in "2021 Outlook" and "Short-term Debt and Credit Facilities"
below and Note 16 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

OG&E's Regulatory Matters

Completed regulatory matters affecting current period results are discussed in Note 16 within "Item 8. Financial

Statements and Supplementary Data."

Summary of OGE Energy 2020 Operating Results Compared to 2019

OGE Energy's net loss was $173.7 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, in 2020 as compared to net income of $433.6
million, or $2.16 per diluted share, in 2019. The decrease in net income of $607.3 million, or $3.03 per diluted share, in 2020 as
compared to 2019 is further discussed below.

•

•

•

A net loss at OGE Holdings of $515.0 million, or $2.58 per diluted share of OGE Energy's common stock, during
the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to net income of $81.4 million, or $0.41 per diluted share of OGE
Energy's common stock, during the year ended December 31, 2019 was primarily due to a decrease in equity in
earnings of Enable related to the impairment of OGE Energy's investment in Enable recorded in March 2020,
partially offset by an income tax benefit related to the impairment charge and lower other expense. The decrease
in equity in earnings of Enable was also impacted by OGE Energy's share of Enable's SESH equity method
investment impairment recorded in September 2020, as adjusted for basis differences, and decreased net income
from Enable's gathering and processing business resulting from lower natural gas gathered and processed volumes
and lower average realized NGL and natural gas sales prices.
A decrease in net income at OG&E of $10.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share of OGE Energy's common stock,
was primarily due to higher depreciation and amortization expense due to additional assets being placed into
service, gross margin reductions from milder weather and COVID-19 impacts, higher income tax expense and
higher interest expense driven by increased long-term debt outstanding. These decreases to net income were
partially offset by increases to gross margin driven by recovery of additional assets placed into service through the
expiration of the cogeneration credit rider and lower other operation and maintenance expense.
A decrease in net income of other operations (holding company) of $0.1 million was primarily due to lower
income tax benefit, partially offset by lower interest expense and higher other income.

A more detailed discussion regarding the financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared to
December 31, 2019 can be found under "Results of Operations" below. A discussion of the financial performance for the year
ended December 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 for OGE Energy and OG&E can be found within "Item
7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of OGE Energy's 2019 Form 10-K
and OG&E's 2019 Form 10-K, respectively.

51

2021 Outlook

Key assumptions for 2021 include:

OG&E

Before consideration of the February 2021 storm event as described below, OG&E is projected to earn approximately

$352 million to $373 million, or $1.76 to $1.86 per average diluted share, in 2021 and is based on the following assumptions:

•
•

•

•

•

•

normal weather patterns are experienced for the year;
gross margin on revenues of approximately $1.553 billion to $1.569 billion, based on total retail load growth of
2.4 percent;
operating expenses of approximately $991 million to $997 million, with operation and maintenance expenses
comprising approximately 47.5 percent of the total;
net interest expense of approximately $157 million to $159 million which assumes a $2.2 million allowance for
borrowed funds used during construction reduction to interest expense;
other income of approximately flat including approximately $4.8 million of allowance for equity funds used
during construction; and
an effective tax rate of approximately 11.3 percent.

OG&E has significant seasonality in its earnings. OG&E typically shows minimal earnings in the first and fourth

quarters with a majority of its earnings in the third quarter due to the seasonal nature of air conditioning demand.

In February 2021, the OG&E service territory experienced an unprecedented, prolonged, cold spell that resulted in
record winter peak demand for electricity and extreme natural gas and purchased power prices. In 2021, OG&E expects
increased retail margins of approximately three to four cents per average diluted share related to the increased demand for
electricity associated with the February cold spell.

OG&E's natural gas costs for the month of February 2021 exceeded the total cost for all of 2020. Fuel and purchased
power costs are recovered through OG&E's Oklahoma and Arkansas fuel adjustment clauses. Estimates of the total regulatory
asset for fuel and purchased power costs that will be recorded are still under development but are expected to be in the range of
$800.0 million to $1.0 billion. OGE Energy has secured a commitment for $1.0 billion in additional short-term financing to
provide additional liquidity to help cover these increased fuel and purchased power costs. In 2021, OG&E expects to incur
approximately three to four cents per share related to incremental financing costs.

For approximately 58,000 guaranteed flat bill customers, representing approximately three percent of load, OG&E
may be unable to seek recovery for the incremental fuel and purchased power costs that are included in customers' guaranteed
flat bill agreements. In 2021, OG&E may incur approximately ten cents per average diluted share of potentially unrecoverable
fuel and purchased power costs related to guaranteed flat bill agreements.

The potential impacts associated with the February 2021 cold spell are not reflected in OG&E's 2021 earnings

guidance range of $1.76 to $1.86 per average diluted share.

OGE Holdings

Enable did not issue a 2021 earnings outlook due to the announced merger between Enable and Energy Transfer.
While OGE Energy is not issuing earnings guidance for its ownership interest in Enable for 2021, it does expect to receive
approximately $60 million to $73 million in cash distributions from its midstream investments in 2021.

Consolidated OGE Energy

OGE Energy is not issuing a 2021 consolidated earnings guidance due to Enable not issuing an earnings outlook; other

consolidated assumptions include:

•
•

approximately 200 million average diluted shares outstanding; and
breakeven results projected at the holding company.

52

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

OGE Energy

"Ongoing earnings" and "ongoing earnings per average diluted share" are defined by OGE Energy as GAAP Net
Income (Loss) and GAAP Earnings (Loss) per Average Diluted Share adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and the
associated tax impacts. These financial measures excluded a pre-tax non-cash charge of $780.0 million, or $3.90 per average
diluted share, associated with the impairment of OGE Energy's investment in Enable, which OGE Energy's management
considers an unusual and infrequent event. Management believes that ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per average
diluted share provide a more meaningful comparison of earnings results and are more representative of OGE Energy's
fundamental core earnings power. OGE Energy's management uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per average diluted
share internally for financial planning and analysis, for reporting of results to the Board of Directors and when communicating
its earnings outlook to analysts and investors.

The following table presents reconciliations of ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per average diluted share for

the year ended December 31, 2020.

(B) Tax effect and tax effect per share are calculated utilizing OGE Holdings' statutory tax rate for the year ended December 31,

OG&E

Gross margin is defined by OG&E as operating revenues less cost of sales. Cost of sales, as reflected on the income
statement, includes fuel, purchased power and certain transmission expenses. Gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure
because it excludes depreciation and amortization and other operation and maintenance expenses. Expenses for fuel and
purchased power are recovered through fuel adjustment clauses, and as a result, changes in these expenses are offset in
operating revenues with no impact on net income. OG&E believes gross margin provides a more meaningful basis for
evaluating its operations across periods than operating revenues because gross margin excludes the revenue effect of
fluctuations in these expenses. Gross margin is used internally to measure performance against budget and in reports for
management and the Board of Directors. OG&E's definition of gross margin may be different from similar terms used by other
companies. Further, gross margin is not intended to replace operating revenues as determined in accordance with GAAP as an
indicator of operating performance. For a reconciliation of gross margin to revenue, which is the most directly comparable
financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, see
"OG&E (Electric Utility) Results of Operations" below.

Enable

Gross margin is defined by Enable as total revenues minus costs of natural gas and NGLs, excluding depreciation and
amortization. Total revenues consist of the fees that Enable charges its customers and the sales price of natural gas and NGLs
that Enable sells. The cost of natural gas and NGLs consists of the purchase price of natural gas and NGLs that Enable
purchases. Enable deducts the cost of natural gas and NGLs from total revenues to arrive at a measure of the core profitability
of their mix of fee-based and commodity-based customer arrangements. Gross margin allows for meaningful comparison of the
operating results between Enable's fee-based revenues and Enable's commodity-based contracts which involve the purchase or
sale of natural gas, NGLs and/or crude oil. In addition, OGE Energy believes gross margin allows for a meaningful comparison
of the results of Enable's commodity-based activities across different commodity price environments because it measures the
spread between the product sales price and cost of products sold. Enable's definition of gross margin may be different from
similar terms used by other companies. Further, gross margin is not intended to replace operating revenues as determined in
accordance with GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. For a reconciliation of gross margin to revenue, which is the
most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, for the years ended December
31, 2020 and 2019, see "OGE Holdings (Natural Gas Midstream Operations) Results of Operations" below.

(A) Degree days are calculated as follows: The high and low degrees of a particular day are added together and then averaged. If the
calculated average is above 65 degrees, then the difference between the calculated average and 65 is expressed as cooling degree days,
with each degree of difference equaling one cooling degree day. If the calculated average is below 65 degrees, then the difference
between the calculated average and 65 is expressed as heating degree days, with each degree of difference equaling one heating degree
day. The daily calculations are then totaled for the particular reporting period.

OG&E's net income decreased $10.8 million, or 3.1 percent, in 2020 as compared to 2019. The following section

discusses the primary drivers for the decrease in net income in 2020 as compared to 2019.

Operating revenues decreased $109.3 million, or 4.9 percent, in 2020 as compared to 2019, primarily due to reduced

cost of sales which are recovered from customers.

Gross margin increased $33.0 million, or 2.3 percent, primarily driven by the below factors.

(C) Gross margin was impacted by COVID-19, particularly as seen in the negative impacts within industrial and oilfield sales

and non-residential demand and related revenues.

Cost of sales for OG&E consists of fuel used in electric generation, purchased power and transmission related charges.
The actual cost of fuel used in electric generation and certain purchased power costs are passed through to OG&E's customers
through fuel adjustment clauses. The fuel adjustment clauses are subject to periodic review by the OCC and the APSC. OG&E's
cost of sales decreased $142.3 million, or 18.1 percent, primarily driven by the below factors.

incremental expenses incurred by OG&E related to its COVID-19 response have been deferred and are included in the
regulatory assets and liabilities table in Note 1 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $36.3 million, or 10.2 percent, primarily due to additional assets
being placed into service and depreciation expense for the Sooner Dry Scrubbers no longer being deferred to a regulatory asset.

Taxes other than income increased $7.7 million, or 8.6 percent, primarily due to increased ad valorem taxes.

Interest on long-term debt increased $14.5 million, or 10.5 percent, primarily due to increased long-term debt

outstanding and interest expense for the Sooner Dry Scrubbers no longer being deferred to a regulatory asset.

Income tax expense increased $14.6 million, or 72.6 percent, primarily due to reduced tax credit generation, reduced

amortization of net unfunded deferred taxes and higher pretax income.

OGE Holdings' net loss of $515.0 million compared to net income of $81.4 million for 2020 and 2019, respectively,
was primarily due to the impairment recorded in March 2020 on OGE Energy's investment in Enable, which is discussed in
more detail in Notes 5 and 7 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." OGE Holdings' net loss in 2020
was also impacted by a decrease in Enable's net income of $308.0 million in 2020 as compared to 2019.

The following table presents summarized information regarding Enable's income statement changes for the year ended
December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, and the corresponding impact those changes had on OGE Energy's
equity in earnings of Enable. See Note 5 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion
of OGE Energy's equity investment in Enable. The decrease in Enable's net income was primarily due to the below factors.

Energy's equity in earnings. OGE Energy recorded a $4.4 million pre-tax charge for its share of Enable's goodwill and
long-lived asset impairments, as adjusted for basis differences.

(B) Included in Enable's operation and maintenance and general and administrative expenses is a $20.0 million loss on
retirement of an Ark-La-Tex gathering system in their gathering and processing business segment. OGE Energy recorded a

(C) Included Enable's equity in earnings (losses) of equity method affiliate is a $225.0 million impairment that Enable recorded
on its SESH equity method investment. Enable estimated the fair value of this equity method investment was below the

58

carrying value at September 30, 2020 and concluded the decline in value was other than temporary due to the expiration of
a transportation contract and the current status of renewal negotiations. OGE Energy recorded a $11.5 million pre-tax
charge for its share of Enable's equity method investment impairment, as adjusted for basis differences.

Enable's gathering and processing business segment reported a decrease of $133.0 million in operating income. The

Gathering and processing gross margin decreased primarily due to the following:

•

•

•

•

•
•
•
•

a decrease in natural gas gathering fees due to lower gathered volumes in the Anadarko and Arkoma Basins,
inclusive of producer shut-ins in the Anadarko Basin that occurred during a portion of 2020, lower shortfall fees
associated with the expiration of certain minimum volume commitments contracts in the Ark-La-Tex and Arkoma
Basins and lower revenue associated with a 2019 amendment of certain minimum volume commitment contracts
in the Arkoma Basin;
a decrease in revenues from natural gas sales less the cost of natural gas due to lower average sales prices and
lower sales volumes;
a decrease in revenues from NGL sales less the cost of NGLs due to lower volumes and lower average market
prices for NGL products;
a decrease in processing service fees due to lower processed volumes under fee-based arrangements, partially
offset by higher consideration received from percent-of-proceeds, percent-of-liquids and keep-whole processing
arrangements due to an increase in retained volumes at lower average market prices as well as an increase in the
recognition of certain annual minimum processing fees;
a decrease in realized gains on natural gas, condensate and NGL derivatives;
a decrease in changes in the fair value of natural gas, condensate and NGL derivatives;
a decrease in intercompany management fees; and
crude oil, condensate and produced water gathering revenues remained flat primarily due to a decrease in gathered
crude oil volumes in the Williston Basin, offset by customer project reimbursements.

Enable's transportation and storage business segment reported an increase of $29.0 million in operating income. The
following table presents summarized information regarding Enable's transportation and storage business segment income
statement changes for 2020 as compared to 2019, and the corresponding impact those changes had on OGE Energy's equity in
earnings of Enable. The increase in Enable's transportation and storage business segment operating income was primarily due to
the below factors.

Transportation and storage gross margin increased primarily due to the following:

•
•

•

•

•
•

an increase in system management activities; and
an increase in firm transportation and storage services due to an increase in recognized rates and the recognition of
certain previously reserved revenue upon the settlement of the MRT rate case, partially offset by lower interstate
contracted capacity and lower rates on certain contracts for intrastate service with power generators; partially
offset by
a decrease in volume-dependent transportation revenues due to lower off-system intrastate transportation rates and
lower transported volumes due to decreased production activity in the Anadarko Basin, partially offset by the
recognition of revenue upon the settlement of the MRT rate case;
a decrease in natural gas storage inventory due to write-downs to lower of cost or net realizable value of natural
gas storage inventories;
a decrease in realized gain on natural gas derivatives; and
a decrease in revenues from NGL sales less the cost of NGLs due to a decrease in average NGL prices and lower
volumes.

OGE Holdings' income tax benefit was $158.0 million for 2020, as compared to income tax expense of $20.7 million
in 2019. The change is primarily due to a tax benefit of $190.4 million related to the impairment recorded in March 2020 on
OGE Energy's investment in Enable, partially offset by state deferred tax adjustments related to OGE Energy's investment in
Enable.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

As of December 31, 2020, OG&E has a noncancellable operating lease with a purchase option, covering 780 rotary
gondola railcars to transport coal from Wyoming to OG&E's coal-fired generation units. Rental payments are charged to fuel
expense and are recovered through OG&E's fuel adjustment clauses. At the end of the lease term, which is February 1, 2024,
OG&E has the option to either purchase the railcars at a stipulated fair market value or renew the lease. If OG&E chooses not to
purchase the railcars or renew the lease agreement and the actual fair value of the railcars is less than the stipulated fair market
value, OG&E would be responsible for the difference in those values up to a maximum of $6.8 million.

(A) Increased primarily due to a decrease in payments for purchased power at OG&E.
(B) Increased primarily due to increased reliability projects, partially offset by environmental projects at OG&E that were

completed and placed into service in 2019 as well as fewer OG&E plant outages in 2020.

(C) Decreased primarily due to the payment of long-term debt by OG&E in January 2019, partially offset by a decrease in

borrowings of short-term debt.

Working Capital

Working capital is defined as the difference in current assets and current liabilities. OGE Energy's working capital
requirements are driven generally by changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, commodity prices, credit extended to

60

and the timing of collections from OG&E's customers, the level and timing of spending for maintenance and expansion activity,
inventory levels and fuel recoveries. The following discussion addresses changes in OGE Energy's working capital balances at
December 31, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019.

Fuel Inventories decreased $9.8 million, or 21.2 percent, primarily due to decreased coal inventory.

Materials and Supplies increased $25.6 million, or 28.3 percent, primarily due to increased inventory acquired for

upcoming projects.

Fuel Clause Under Recoveries decreased $39.5 million and Fuel Clause Over Recoveries increased $23.8 million,

primarily due to increased collections from OG&E customers and lower fuel costs.

Other Current Assets increased $16.8 million, or 68.9 percent, primarily due to an increase in under-recovered riders

and SPP transmission formula rate.

Short-term Debt decreased $17.0 million, or 15.2 percent, primarily due to funds for operational needs. OGE Energy
borrows on a short-term basis, as necessary, by the issuance of commercial paper and borrowings under its revolving credit
agreements and term credit agreement.

Accounts Payable increased $56.6 million, or 29.0 percent, primarily due to accruals related to storm restoration

activity in the fourth quarter and timing of vendor payments.

Accrued Taxes increased $13.8 million, or 32.9 percent, primarily due to the deferment of the employer portion of

FICA payroll taxes as allowed by the CARES Act and an increase in tax accruals related to ad valorem and income taxes.

Accrued Compensation decreased $9.5 million, or 23.4 percent, primarily due to lower accruals for incentive

compensation in 2020 and labor accrued but not paid due to timing of pay periods.

Other Current Liabilities decreased $31.5 million, or 48.3 percent, primarily due to changes in amounts owed to
OG&E customers which includes an $18.9 million reduction in SPP reserves related to the transmission formula rate and
decreased over-recovered riders.

2020 Capital Requirements, Sources of Financing and Financing Activities

OGE Energy's total capital requirements, consisting of capital expenditures and maturities of long-term debt, were
$650.6 million, and contractual obligations, net of recoveries through fuel adjustment clauses, were $0.9 million, resulting in
total net capital requirements and contractual obligations of $651.5 million in 2020. This compares to net capital requirements
of $885.6 million and net contractual obligations of $12.0 million totaling $897.6 million in 2019.

In 2020, OGE Energy's primary sources of capital were cash generated from operations, proceeds from the issuance of
long- and short-term debt and distributions from Enable. Changes in working capital reflect the seasonal nature of OGE
Energy's business, the revenue lag between billing and collection from customers and fuel inventories. See "Working Capital"
for a discussion of significant changes in net working capital requirements as it pertains to operating cash flow and liquidity.

The Dodd-Frank Act

Derivative instruments have been used at times in managing OG&E's commodity price exposure. The Dodd-Frank
Act, among other things, provides for regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission of certain commodity-related
contracts. Although OG&E qualifies for an end-user exception from mandatory clearing of commodity-related swaps, these
regulations could affect the ability of OG&E to participate in these markets and could add additional regulatory oversight over
its contracting activities.

Future Capital Requirements

OGE Energy's primary needs for capital are related to acquiring or constructing new facilities and replacing or
expanding existing facilities at OG&E. Other working capital requirements are expected to be primarily related to maturing
debt, operating lease obligations, fuel clause under and over recoveries and other general corporate purposes. OGE Energy
generally meets its cash needs through a combination of cash generated from operations, short-term borrowings (through a
combination of bank borrowings and commercial paper) and permanent financings.

Capital Expenditures

The following table presents OGE Energy's estimates of capital expenditures for the years 2021 through 2025. These
capital expenditures represent the base maintenance capital expenditures (i.e., capital expenditures to maintain and operate OGE
Energy's businesses) plus capital expenditures for known and committed projects. Estimated capital expenditures for Enable are
not included.

Additional capital expenditures beyond those identified in the table above, including additional incremental growth
opportunities in electric transmission assets, will be evaluated based upon their impact upon achieving OGE Energy's financial
objectives. The continued progression of, and global response to, the COVID-19 outbreak increases the risk of delays in
construction activities and equipment deliveries related to OGE Energy's capital projects, including potential delays in obtaining
permits from government agencies, resulting in potential deferral of capital expenditures.

(A) Includes expected recoveries of costs incurred for OG&E's railcar operating lease obligations, OG&E's minimum fuel

purchase commitments and OG&E's expected wind purchase commitments.

The actual cost of fuel used in electric generation (which includes the operating lease obligations for OG&E's railcar
leases shown above) and certain purchased power costs are passed on to OG&E's customers through fuel adjustment
clauses. Accordingly, while the cost of fuel related to operating leases and the vast majority of minimum fuel purchase
commitments of OG&E noted above may increase capital requirements, such costs are recoverable through fuel adjustment
clauses and have little, if any, impact on net capital requirements and future contractual obligations. The fuel adjustment clauses
are subject to periodic review by the OCC and the APSC.

Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans

At December 31, 2020, 43.2 percent of the Pension Plan investments were in listed common stocks with the balance
primarily invested in corporate fixed income, other securities and U.S. Treasury notes and bonds as presented in Note 13 within
"Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." During 2020, actual returns on the Pension Plan were $77.0 million,
compared to expected return on plan assets of $37.6 million. During the same time, corporate bond yields, which are used in
determining the discount rate for future pension obligations, decreased. Funding levels are dependent on returns on plan assets
and future discount rates. OGE Energy made a $20.0 million contribution to its Pension Plan in both 2020 and 2019. In January
2021, OGE Energy made a $40.0 million contribution to its Pension Plan and has not determined whether it will need to make
any additional contributions to the Pension Plan in 2021. OGE Energy could be required to make additional contributions if the
value of its pension trust and postretirement benefit plan trust assets are adversely impacted by a major market disruption in the
future.

The following table presents the status of OGE Energy's Pension Plan, the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan and
the postretirement benefit plans at December 31, 2020 and 2019. These amounts have been recorded in Accrued Benefit
Obligations with the offset in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (except OG&E's portion, which is recorded as a
regulatory asset as discussed in Note 1 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data") in the balance
sheets. The amounts in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss and those recorded as a regulatory asset represent a net
periodic benefit cost to be recognized in the statements of income in future periods.

OGE Energy's dividend policy is reviewed by the Board of Directors at least annually and is based on numerous
factors, including management's estimation of the long-term earnings power of its businesses. At OGE Energy's September
2020 board meeting, the Board of Directors approved management's recommendation of a four percent increase in the quarterly
dividend rate to $0.4025 per share from $0.3875 per share effective in October 2020.

Financing Activities and Future Sources of Financing

Management expects that cash generated from operations, proceeds from the issuance of long- and short-term debt,
proceeds from the sales of common stock to the public through OGE Energy's Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock
Purchase Plan or other offerings and distributions from Enable will be adequate over the next three years to meet anticipated
cash needs and to fund future growth opportunities. OGE Energy utilizes short-term borrowings (through a combination of bank
borrowings and commercial paper) to satisfy temporary working capital needs and as an interim source of financing capital
expenditures until permanent financing is arranged. As indicated above, as a precautionary measure in order to increase OGE
Energy's cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, OGE
Energy entered into a one-year $75.0 million term loan agreement in April 2020, which was repaid in September 2020. Further,
OG&E issued $300.0 million in senior notes in April 2020. The disruption in the capital markets and the commercial paper
markets caused by the COVID-19 outbreak could make additional financing more challenging, and there can be no assurance
that OGE Energy will be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms or at all. In February 2021, OGE
Energy entered into a $1.0 billion commitment letter for an unsecured term loan facility to provide additional liquidity to help
cover the increased fuel and purchased power costs incurred by OG&E during the unprecedented cold weather event
experienced in OG&E's service territory.

Short-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

OGE Energy borrows on a short-term basis, as necessary, by issuance of commercial paper and borrowings under its

revolving credit agreements and term credit agreements.

63

OGE Energy has unsecured five-year revolving credit facilities totaling $900.0 million ($450.0 million for OGE
Energy and $450.0 million for OG&E), which can also be used as letter of credit facilities. The following table presents

See Note 12 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion of the Registrants'
short-term debt activity. Such activity includes: (i) during 2020, OGE Energy entered into and subsequently repaid a $75.0
million term loan agreement in response to COVID-19; (ii) in January 2021, the Registrants extended their respective revolving
credit facilities' term for an additional year; and (iii) in January 2021, the Registrants entered into amendments for their
respective revolving credit facilities which provides the option of extending their respective commitments for up to two
additional one-year periods as well as addressed the phase out of LIBOR and the establishment of an alternative rate of interest.

On February 24, 2021, OGE Energy entered into a commitment letter with Wells Fargo and certain of its affiliates
whereby Wells Fargo committed to provide an unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion.
While borrowing availability still exists within the Registrants' credit facilities, the $1.0 billion commitment in additional short-
term financing is expected to provide additional liquidity to help cover the increased fuel and purchased power costs incurred
by OG&E during the February 2021 unprecedented cold weather event. For further discussion, see "Item 9B. Other
Information." OGE Energy expects to have additional short-term debt outstanding in 2021 which will result in additional
interest expense.

OG&E must obtain regulatory approval from the FERC in order to borrow on a short-term basis. OG&E has the
necessary regulatory approvals to incur up to $800.0 million in short-term borrowings at any one time for a two-year period
beginning January 1, 2021 and ending December 31, 2022.

Issuance of Long-Term Debt

In April 2020, OG&E issued $300.0 million of 3.25 percent senior notes due April 1, 2030. The proceeds from the
issuance were added to OG&E's general funds to be used for general corporate purposes, including to fund ongoing capital
expenditures and working capital.

Access to reasonably priced capital is dependent in part on credit and security ratings. Generally, lower ratings lead to
higher financing costs. Pricing grids associated with OGE Energy's credit facilities could cause annual fees and borrowing rates
to increase if an adverse rating impact occurs. The impact of any future downgrade could include an increase in the costs of
OGE Energy's short-term borrowings, but a reduction in OGE Energy's credit ratings would not result in any defaults or

64

accelerations. Any future downgrade could also lead to higher long-term borrowing costs and, if below investment grade, would
require OGE Energy to post collateral or letters of credit.

A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. Such rating may be subject to revision or

withdrawal at any time by the credit rating agency, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.

Future financing requirements may be dependent, to varying degrees, upon numerous factors such as general economic
conditions, abnormal weather, load growth, commodity prices, acquisitions of other businesses and/or development of projects,
actions by rating agencies, inflation, changes in environmental laws or regulations, rate increases or decreases allowed by
regulatory agencies, new legislation and market entry of competing electric power generators.

Common Stock

OGE Energy does not expect to issue any common stock in 2021 from its Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and
Stock Purchase Plan. See Note 10 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for a discussion of OGE
Energy's common stock activity.

Distributions by Enable

Pursuant to the Enable Limited Partnership Agreement, Enable made distributions of $91.7 million, $144.0 million and
$141.2 million to OGE Energy during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As required by
Enable's Limited Partnership Agreement and General Partner Agreement, respectively, the last permitted distribution date is 60
days after the close of each quarter, and the distribution deadline is five days following distributions by Enable. On April 1,
2020, Enable announced a 50 percent reduction to its quarterly distribution in order to strengthen its balance sheet and increase
its annualized retained cash flow. OGE Energy does not expect any changes to its operations or foresee the need to access the
equity markets as a result of Enable's action.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements and notes thereto contain information that is pertinent to Management's Discussion and
Analysis. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. Changes to these assumptions and estimates could have a material effect on the financial statements. The
Registrants believe they have taken reasonable positions where assumptions and estimates are used in order to minimize the
negative financial impact to the Registrants that could result if actual results vary from the assumptions and estimates.

In management's opinion, the areas where the most significant judgment is exercised for the Registrants include the
determination of Pension Plan assumptions, income taxes, contingency reserves, asset retirement obligations, regulatory assets
and liabilities, unbilled revenues and the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. For OGE Energy, significant
judgment is also exercised in the determination of any impairment of equity method investments. The selection, application and
disclosure of the following critical accounting estimates have been discussed with the Audit Committee of OGE Energy's Board
of Directors. The Registrants discuss their significant accounting policies, including those that do not require management to
make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates,
in Note 1 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data."

Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans

OGE Energy has a Pension Plan that covers a significant amount of its employees, including OG&E's employees,
hired before December 1, 2009. Effective December 1, 2009, OGE Energy's Pension Plan is no longer being offered to
employees hired on or after December 1, 2009. OGE Energy also has defined benefit postretirement plans that cover a
significant amount of its employees, including OG&E's employees. Pension and other postretirement plan expenses and
liabilities are determined on an actuarial basis and are affected by the market value of plan assets, estimates of the expected
return on plan assets, assumed discount rates and the level of funding. Actual changes in the fair market value of plan assets and
differences between the actual return on plan assets and the expected return on plan assets could have a material effect on the
amount of pension expense ultimately recognized. The Pension Plan rate assumptions are shown in Note 13 within "Item 8.
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." The assumed return on plan assets is based on management's expectation of the
long-term return on the plan assets portfolio. The discount rate used to compute the present value of plan liabilities is based
generally on rates of high-grade corporate bonds with maturities similar to the average period over which benefits will be

65

paid. Funding levels are dependent on returns on plan assets and future discount rates. Higher returns on plan assets and an
increase in discount rates will reduce funding requirements to the Pension Plan.

The following table presents the sensitivity of the Pension Plan funded status to these variables.

Income Taxes

The Registrants use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, a deferred tax
asset or liability is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the financial
statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as well as tax credit carry forwards and net operating loss carry
forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period of the change.

The application of income tax law is complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and often ambiguous.
Interpretations and guidance surrounding income tax laws and regulations change over time. Accordingly, it is necessary to
make judgments regarding income tax exposure. As a result, changes in these judgments can materially affect amounts the
Registrants recognized in their financial statements. Tax positions taken by the Registrants on their income tax returns that are
recognized in the financial statements must satisfy a more likely than not recognition threshold, assuming that the position will
be examined by taxing authorities with full knowledge of all relevant information.

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Registrants are confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent
liability. These generally relate to lawsuits or claims made by third parties, including governmental agencies. When appropriate,
management consults with legal counsel and other experts to assess the claim. If, in management's opinion, the Registrants have
incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are
reflected in the financial statements.

Asset Retirement Obligations

OG&E has recorded asset retirement obligations that are being accreted over their respective lives ranging from five to
68 years. The inputs used in the valuation of asset retirement obligations include the assumed life of the asset placed into
service, the average inflation rate, market risk premium, the credit-adjusted risk free interest rate and the timing of incurring
costs related to the retirement of the asset.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

OG&E, as a regulated utility, is subject to accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities, which
provide that certain incurred costs that would otherwise be charged to expense can be deferred as regulatory assets, based on the
expected recovery from customers in future rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce
expense can be deferred as regulatory liabilities, based on the expected flowback to customers in future rates. Management's
expected recovery of deferred costs and flowback of deferred credits generally results from specific decisions by regulators
granting such ratemaking treatment.

OG&E records certain incurred costs and obligations as regulatory assets or liabilities if, based on regulatory orders or
other available evidence, it is probable that the costs or obligations will be included in amounts allowable for recovery or refund
in future rates. Management continuously monitors the future recoverability of regulatory assets. When in management's
judgement future recovery becomes impaired, the amount of the regulatory asset is adjusted, as appropriate.

66

Unbilled Revenues

OG&E recognizes revenue from electric sales when power is delivered to customers. OG&E measures its customers'
metered usage and sends bills to its customers throughout each month. As a result, there is a significant amount of customers'
electricity consumption that has not been billed at the end of each month. OG&E accrues an estimate of the revenues for
electric sales delivered since the latest billings. Unbilled revenue is presented in Accrued Unbilled Revenues in the balance
sheets and in Operating Revenues in the statements of income based on estimates of usage and prices during the period. At
December 31, 2020, if the estimated usage or price used in the unbilled revenue calculation were to increase or decrease by one
percent, this would cause a change in the unbilled revenues recognized of $0.5 million. At December 31, 2020 and 2019,
Accrued Unbilled Revenues were $68.0 million and $64.7 million, respectively. The estimates that management uses in this
calculation could vary from the actual amounts to be paid by customers.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable

Customer balances are generally written off if not collected within six months after the final billing date. The
allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for OG&E is generally calculated by multiplying the last six months of electric
revenue by the provision rate, which is based on a 12-month historical average of actual balances written off and is adjusted for
current conditions and supportable forecasts as necessary. To the extent the historical collection rates, when incorporating
forecasted conditions, are not representative of future collections, there could be an effect on the amount of uncollectible
expense recognized. Also, a portion of the uncollectible provision related to fuel within the Oklahoma jurisdiction is being
recovered through the fuel adjustment clause. At December 31, 2020, if the provision rate were to increase or decrease by 10
percent, this would cause a change in the uncollectible expense recognized of $0.3 million. The allowance for uncollectible
accounts receivable is a reduction to Accounts Receivable in the balance sheets and is included in Other Operation and
Maintenance Expense in the statements of income. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable was $2.6 million and
$1.5 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

OG&E adjusted its reserve on accounts receivable as of December 31, 2020 in light of COVID-19 pandemic impacts
and deferred this credit reserve adjustment to a regulatory asset, as both the OCC and the APSC issued accounting orders
allowing OG&E to seek recovery of incremental bad debt resulting from COVID-19, as further discussed in Note 16 within
"Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Impairment of Equity Method Investments

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method are assessed for impairment when there
are indicators of a loss in value, such as a lack of sustained earnings capacity or a current fair value less than the investment's
carrying amount. When it is determined that an indicated impairment is other than temporary, an impairment charge is
recognized for the difference between the investment's carrying value and its estimated fair value.

When determining whether a decline in value is other than temporary, management considers factors such as the
duration and extent of the decline, the investee's financial condition and near-term prospects, and management's ability and
intention to retain the investment for a period that allows for recovery. When estimating an investment's fair value, quoted
market prices are utilized, as available, and other rights and privileges that are a feature or attribute of the investment security
are considered, as appropriate. Different assumptions could affect the timing and the amount of an impairment of an investment
in any period.

Effective March 31, 2020, OGE Energy estimated the fair value of its investment in Enable was below the book value
and concluded the decline in value was not temporary due to the severity of the decline and the recent rapid deterioration, as
well as the near term future outlook, of the midstream oil and gas industry. Accordingly, OGE Energy recorded a $780.0
million impairment on its investment in Enable in March 2020, which is included in Equity in Earnings (Losses) of
Unconsolidated Affiliates in OGE Energy's 2020 income statement. Further discussion can be found in Notes 5 and 7 within
"Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for discussion of current accounting

pronouncements that are applicable to the Registrants.

67

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Registrants are confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent
liability. These generally relate to lawsuits or claims made by third parties, including governmental agencies. When appropriate,
management consults with legal counsel and other experts to assess the claim. If, in management's opinion, the Registrants have
incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are
reflected in the financial statements. At the present time, based on available information, the Registrants believe that any
reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued amounts arising out of pending or threatened lawsuits or claims would not be
quantitatively material to their financial statements and would not have a material adverse effect on their financial position,
results of operations or cash flows. See Notes 15 and 16 within "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and
"Item 3. Legal Proceedings" for further discussion of the Registrants' commitments and contingencies.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

The activities of OG&E are subject to numerous stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and regulations
governing environmental protection. These laws and regulations can change, restrict or otherwise impact OG&E's business
activities in many ways, including the handling or disposal of waste material, planning for future construction activities to avoid
or mitigate harm to threatened or endangered species and requiring the installation and operation of emissions or pollution
control equipment. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in the assessment of administrative, civil and
criminal penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements and the issuance of orders enjoining future operations. Management
believes that all of the Registrants' operations are in substantial compliance with current federal, state and local environmental
standards.

President Biden has taken a number of actions that affect environmental regulations adopted by the Trump
administration, including issuance of an executive order that instructs the EPA and other executive agencies to review certain
rules that affect OG&E. OG&E is monitoring these actions which are in the preliminary stages of being implemented. At this
point in time, the impacts of these actions on the Registrants' results of operations, if any, cannot be determined with any
certainty.

Environmental regulation can increase the cost of planning, design, initial installation and operation of OG&E's
legislation and

facilities. Management continues to evaluate its compliance with existing and proposed environmental
regulations and implement appropriate environmental programs in a competitive market.

Air

Federal Clean Air Act Overview

OG&E's operations are subject to the Federal Clean Air Act as amended and comparable state laws and regulations.
These laws and regulations regulate emissions of air pollutants from various industrial sources, including electric generating
units and also impose various monitoring and reporting requirements. Such laws and regulations may require that OG&E obtain
pre-approval for the construction or modification of certain projects or facilities expected to produce air emissions or result in
the increase of existing air emissions, obtain and strictly comply with air permits containing various emissions and operational
limitations or install emission control equipment. OG&E likely will be required to incur certain capital expenditures in the
future for air pollution control equipment and technology in connection with obtaining and maintaining operating permits and
approvals for air emissions.

Cross-State Air Pollution Rule

On September 7, 2016, the EPA finalized an update to the 2011 Cross-State Air Pollution Rule. The new rule applies
to ozone-season NOX emissions from power plants in 22 eastern states (including Oklahoma). The rule utilizes a cap and trade
program for NOX emissions and went into effect on May 1, 2017 in Oklahoma. The 2016 rule reduces the 2011 Cross-State Air
Pollution Rule emissions cap for all of OG&E's coal and gas facilities (except the River Valley and Frontier facilities which
were not owned by OG&E until 2019) by 47 percent combined. OG&E and numerous other parties filed petitions for judicial
and administrative review of the 2016 rule. On September 13, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit issued an opinion that partially remanded the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule update and also deferred a decision on our
challenges to the rule pending an EPA review and decision on a separate administrative petition that we filed. Subsequently, all
of OG&E's judicial challenges were voluntarily dismissed, but the administrative petitions for reconsideration remain pending
at the EPA. On October 30, 2020, the EPA published a proposed rule to revise the 2016 update rule and address the 2019
remand. The EPA did not propose any additional reductions in the emissions budget for Oklahoma based on a preliminary

68

determination that the state does not cause or contribute to nonattainment of the ambient air quality standards in the relevant
downwind areas. OG&E subsequently filed comments to the proposal.

OG&E continues to monitor these processes and their possible impact on its operations but, at this time, cannot
determine with any certainty whether they will cause a material impact to OG&E's financial results. OG&E is in compliance
with the 2016 rule requirements which remain in effect. OG&E does not anticipate, at this time, additional capital expenditures
for compliance with the 2016 rule.

Hazardous Air Pollutants Emission Standards

On February 16, 2012, the EPA published the final MATS rule regulating the emissions of certain hazardous air
pollutants from electric generating units. OG&E complied with the MATS rule by the April 16, 2016 deadline that applied to
OG&E's coal units. On April 16, 2020, the EPA released a final rule which reconsidered certain elements of the 2012 rule in
response to litigation in the D.C. Circuit Court. In the final rule, the EPA concluded that it is not "appropriate and necessary" to
regulate MATS-related emissions from coal-fired units. Nonetheless,
the EPA retained the emissions limits that were
established in the 2012 rule, which remains in effect today. Petitions for judicial review of the final May 2020 rule have been
filed at the D.C. Circuit Court.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

The EPA is required to set NAAQS for certain pollutants considered to be harmful to public health or the environment.
The Clean Air Act requires the EPA to review each NAAQS every five years. As a result of these reviews, the EPA periodically
has taken action to adopt more stringent NAAQS for those pollutants. If any areas of Oklahoma were to be designated as not
attaining the NAAQS for a particular pollutant, OG&E could be required to install additional emission controls on its facilities
to help the state achieve attainment with the NAAQS. As of December 31, 2020, no areas of Oklahoma had been designated as
non-attainment for pollutants that are likely to affect OG&E's operations.

The EPA proposed to designate part of Muskogee County, in which OG&E's Muskogee Power Plant is located, as
non-attainment for the 2010 SO2 NAAQS on March 1, 2016, even though nearby monitors indicated compliance with the
NAAQS. The proposed designation was based on modeling that did not reflect the conversion of two of the coal units at
Muskogee to natural gas. The State of Oklahoma's monitoring from 2017-2019 indicated that ambient SO2 emissions in the area
are well within the NAAQS. On December 21, 2020, the EPA published in the Federal Register its final designation of the
relevant area in Muskogee County as attainment/unclassifiable.

Climate Change and Greenhouse Gas Emissions

There is continuing discussion and evaluation of possible global climate change in certain regulatory and legislative
arenas. The focus is generally on emissions of greenhouse gases, including CO2, sulfur hexafluoride and methane, and whether
these emissions are contributing to the warming of the earth's atmosphere. On November 4, 2020, the U.S. officially withdrew
from the United Nations' "Paris Agreement" on climate change. Newly elected President Biden announced on January 20, 2021
that the U.S. would rejoin the agreement. In addition, President Biden has recently stated that a goal of his administration is to
see the electric power industry fully decarbonized by 2035, although details of the goal are not available. Such decisions may
result in future additional greenhouse gas emissions reductions in the U.S.; however, it is not possible to determine what the
U.S. standards for greenhouse gas emissions will be in the future or the extent to which these commitments will be
implemented through the Clean Air Act or any other existing statutes and new legislation.

If legislation or regulations are passed at the federal or state levels in the future requiring mandatory reductions of CO2
and other greenhouse gases on OG&E's facilities, this could result in significant additional compliance costs that would affect
OG&E's future financial position, results of operations and cash flows if such costs are not recovered through regulated rates.
Several states outside the area where OG&E operates have passed laws, adopted regulations or undertaken regulatory initiatives
to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, primarily through the planned development of greenhouse gas emission inventories
and/or regional greenhouse gas cap and trade programs.

OG&E's current business strategy has resulted in reduced carbon dioxide emissions by over 40 percent compared to
2005 levels, and during the same period, emissions of ozone-forming NOx have been reduced by approximately 75 percent and
emissions of SO2 have been reduced by approximately 90 percent. OG&E expects to further reduce carbon dioxide emissions to
50 percent of 2005 levels by 2030. To comply with the EPA's MATS rule and Regional Haze Rule FIP, OG&E converted two
coal-fired generating units at the Muskogee Station to natural gas, among other measures. OG&E's deployment of Smart Grid
technology helps to reduce the peak load demand. OG&E is also deploying more renewable energy sources that do not emit

69

greenhouse gases. OG&E's service territory borders one of the nation's best wind resource areas, and OG&E has leveraged its
geographic position to develop renewable energy resources and completed transmission investments to deliver the renewable
energy. The SPP has authorized the construction of transmission lines capable of bringing renewable energy out of the wind
resource areas in western Oklahoma, the Texas Panhandle and western Kansas to load centers by planning for more
transmission to be built in the area. In addition to increasing overall system reliability, these new transmission resources should
provide greater access to additional wind resources that are currently constrained due to existing transmission delivery
limitations.

Regional Haze Regulation - Second Planning Period

In January 2017, the EPA finalized a rule that would revise certain provisions of the Regional Haze Rule. Notably, the
EPA extended the SIP deadline for the second Regional Haze implementation period by three years to 2021 and made changes
to the provisions for impacts to national parks and other protected wilderness areas. Petitions for Reconsideration to the EPA
were filed by industry groups. While not acting on the petitions, the EPA announced on January 17, 2018 that it intends to
commence a notice-and-comment rulemaking revisiting certain aspects of the rule. During 2019, the EPA released technical
resources to assist states in developing SIPs, including a significant non-binding guidance document and updated atmospheric
modeling which will allow states to better account for international emissions affecting regional haze in the U.S. On July 1,
2020, the ODEQ notified OG&E that the Horseshoe Lake generating units are to be included in the state's evaluation of
visibility impairment impacts to the Wichita Mountains. OG&E conducted an analysis of all potential control measures for NOx
on these units and submitted it to the ODEQ on September 15, 2020. The ODEQ will identify any cost-effective control
measures in a Regional Haze SIP, to be submitted to the EPA for approval by July 31, 2021. It is unknown at this time what the
outcome, or any potential material impacts, will be from the evaluations by OG&E, the ODEQ and the EPA.

Endangered Species

Certain federal laws, including the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the
Endangered Species Act, provide special protection to certain designated species. These laws and any state equivalents provide
for significant civil and criminal penalties for unpermitted activities that result in harm to or harassment of certain protected
animals and plants, including damage to their habitats. If such species are located in an area in which OG&E conducts
operations, or if additional species in those areas become subject to protection, OG&E's operations and development projects,
particularly transmission, wind or pipeline projects, could be restricted or delayed, or OG&E could be required to implement
expensive mitigation measures.

Vegetation Management

On July 10, 2020, the U.S. Department of Agriculture – Forest Service published a final rule which updates procedures
for creating operating plans and agreements for powerline facility maintenance and vegetation management within and abutting
the linear boundary of a special use authorization for a powerline facility within Forest Service lands. This rule codifies the
memorandum of understanding between utilities such as OG&E and the Forest Service regarding vegetation management best
practices. All companies will be required to have an approved operating plan or agreement with the Forest Service. OG&E will
be required to submit a draft operating plan to the Forest Service by August 10, 2023 for ongoing maintenance and vegetation
management activities located within the Ozark National Forest in Arkansas.

Waste

OG&E's operations generate wastes that are subject to the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976
as well as comparable state laws which impose detailed requirements for the handling, storage, treatment and disposal of waste.

In 2015, the EPA finalized a rule under the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act for the handling and
disposal of coal combustion residuals or coal ash. The rule regulates coal ash as a solid waste rather than a hazardous waste,
which would have made the management of coal ash more costly. In August 2019, the EPA proposed revisions to the 2015 coal
ash rule in response to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issuing a decision regarding the ongoing Coal Combustion Residuals
litigation. The proposed changes do not appear to be material to OG&E at this time. OG&E completed the clean closure of one
regulated inactive coal ash impoundment in August 2019.

On June 28, 2018, the EPA approved the State of Oklahoma's application for a state coal ash permitting program that
will operate in lieu of the federal coal ash program promulgated under the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
On September 26, 2018, a citizen suit was filed against the EPA in the U.S. District Court in the District of Columbia

70

concerning the final approval, which was decided upon in the EPA's favor on April 15, 2020 and has subsequently been
appealed.

OG&E currently recycles and provides approximately 97 percent of its ash to the concrete and cement industries for
use as a component within their products and, in the last five years, has diverted more than 1.3 million tons of ash from
landfills. Using fly ash in this way enables aggregate manufacturers to minimize their impact on the environment by avoiding
the need to extract and process other natural resources.

OG&E has sought and will continue to seek pollution prevention opportunities and to evaluate the effectiveness of its

waste reduction, reuse and recycling efforts. In 2020, OG&E obtained refunds of $2.6 million from the recycling of scrap metal,
salvaged transformers and used transformer oil. This figure does not include the additional savings gained through the reduction
and/or avoidance of disposal costs and the reduction in material purchases due to the reuse of existing materials. Similar savings
are anticipated in future years.

Water

OG&E's operations are subject to the Federal Clean Water Act and comparable state laws and regulations. These laws
and regulations impose detailed requirements and strict controls regarding the discharge of pollutants into state and federal
waters.

The EPA issued a final rule on May 19, 2014 to implement Section 316(b) of the Federal Clean Water Act, which
requires that power plant cooling water intake structure location, design, construction and capacity reflect the best available
technology for minimizing their adverse environmental impact via the impingement and entrainment of aquatic organisms. The
ODEQ issued final permits on December 22, 2017 and August 22, 2018 for Muskogee Power Plant and Seminole Power Plant,
respectively, in compliance with the final 316(b) rule, and OG&E did not incur any material costs associated with the rule's
implementation at either location. OG&E expects to be able to provide a reasonable estimate of any material costs associated
with the rule's implementation at other facilities following the future issuance of permits from the State of Oklahoma.

In 2015, the EPA issued a final rule addressing the effluent limitation guidelines for power plants under the Federal
Clean Water Act. The final rule establishes technology- and performance-based standards that may apply to discharges of six
waste streams including bottom ash transport water. Compliance with this rule will occur by 2023; however, on April 12, 2017,
the EPA granted a Petition for Reconsideration of the 2015 Rule. On October 13, 2020, the EPA published a final rule to revise
the technology-based effluent limitations for flue gas desulfurization waste water and bottom ash transport water. OG&E is
evaluating what, if any, compliance actions are needed but is not able to quantify with any certainty what costs may be incurred.
OG&E expects to be able to provide a reasonable estimate of any material costs associated with the rule's implementation
following issuance of the permits from the State of Oklahoma.

On April 21, 2020, the EPA and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers published a rule to define the scope of federal
jurisdiction over wetlands. This final rule replaces the repealed definition of waters of the U.S. from 2015. The rule became
effective on June 22, 2020, and OG&E does not expect any material impacts as a result.

Since the purchase of the Redbud facility in 2008, OG&E's average use of treated municipal effluent for all of the
needed cooling water at Redbud and McClain is approximately 2.5 billion gallons per year. This use of treated municipal
effluent offsets the need for fresh water as cooling water, making fresh water available for other beneficial uses like drinking
water, irrigation and recreation.

Site Remediation

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 and comparable state laws
impose liability, without regard to the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons responsible for the release
of hazardous substances into the environment. Because OG&E utilizes various products and generates wastes that are
considered hazardous substances for purposes of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
of 1980, OG&E could be subject to liability for the costs of cleaning up and restoring sites where those substances have been
released to the environment. At this time, it is not anticipated that any associated liability will cause a significant impact to
OG&E.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risks are, in most cases, risks that are actively traded in a marketplace and have been well studied in regards to
quantification. Market risks include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates and commodity prices. The Registrants'
exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to short-term variable-rate debt and commercial paper. The Registrants
are exposed to commodity prices in their operations to the extent any fuel price changes are not recovered in customer rates
and, for OGE Energy, through its equity investment in Enable.

Risk Oversight Committee

Management monitors market risks using a risk committee structure. OGE Energy's Risk Oversight Committee, which
consists primarily of corporate officers, is responsible for the overall development, implementation and enforcement of
strategies and policies for all market risk management activities of the Registrants. This committee's emphasis is a holistic
perspective of risk measurement and policies targeting the Registrants' overall financial performance. On a quarterly basis, the
Risk Oversight Committee reports to the Audit Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors on OGE Energy's risk profile
affecting anticipated financial results, including any significant risk issues.

OGE Energy also has a Corporate Risk Management function which, in conjunction with the aforementioned

committees, is responsible for establishing and enforcing the Registrants' risk policies.

Risk Policies

Management utilizes risk policies to control the amount of market risk exposure. These policies are designed to
provide the Audit Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors and senior executives of the Registrants with confidence that
the risks taken on by the Registrants' business activities are in accordance with their expectations for financial returns and that
the approved policies and controls related to market risk management are being followed.

Interest Rate Risk

The Registrants' exposure to changes in interest rates primarily relates to variable-rate debt and commercial paper. The
Registrants manage their interest rate exposure by monitoring and limiting the effects of market changes in interest rates. The
Registrants may utilize interest rate derivatives to alter interest rate exposure in an attempt to reduce the effects of these
changes. Interest rate derivatives would be used solely to modify interest rate exposure and not to modify the overall leverage
of the debt portfolio, but the Registrants have no intent at this time to utilize interest rate derivatives.

The fair value of OG&E's long-term debt is based on quoted market prices and estimates of current rates available for
similar issues with similar maturities or by calculating the net present value of the monthly payments discounted by OG&E's
current borrowing rate. The following table presents OG&E's long-term debt maturities and the weighted-average interest rates
by maturity date. OGE Energy currently has no long-term debt outstanding.

interest rates which may be more or less than the interest rates on the maturing debt.

(B) A hypothetical change of 100 basis points in the underlying variable interest rate incurred by OG&E would change interest

expense by $1.4 million annually.

OGE Energy is a holding company with investments in energy and energy services providers offering physical
delivery and related services for both electricity and natural gas primarily in the south central U.S. OGE Energy conducts these
activities through two business segments: (i) electric utility and (ii) natural gas midstream operations. The accounts of OGE
Energy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including OG&E, are included in OGE Energy's consolidated financial statements.
All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in such consolidation. OGE Energy generally uses the equity method
of accounting for investments where its ownership interest is between 20 percent and 50 percent and it lacks the power to direct
activities that most significantly impact economic performance.

OG&E. OGE Energy's electric utility operations are conducted through OG&E, which generates, transmits, distributes
and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. OG&E's rates are subject to regulation by the OCC, the APSC and
the FERC. OG&E was incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
OGE Energy. OG&E is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, and its franchised service territory includes Fort Smith,
Arkansas and the surrounding communities. OG&E sold its retail natural gas business in 1928 and is no longer engaged in the
natural gas distribution business.

Enable. OGE Energy's natural gas midstream operations segment represents OGE Energy's investment in Enable. The
investment in Enable is held through wholly-owned subsidiaries and ultimately OGE Holdings. Enable is primarily engaged in
the business of gathering, processing, transporting and storing natural gas. Enable's natural gas gathering and processing assets
are strategically located in four states and serve natural gas production in the Anadarko, Arkoma and Ark-La-Tex Basins.
Enable also owns crude oil gathering assets in the Anadarko and Williston Basins. Enable has intrastate natural gas
transportation and storage assets that are located in Oklahoma as well as interstate assets that extend from western Oklahoma
and the Texas Panhandle to Louisiana, from Louisiana to Illinois and from Louisiana to Alabama. Enable's general partner is
equally controlled by OGE Energy and CenterPoint, who each have 50 percent management ownership. Based on the 50/50
management ownership, with neither company having control, OGE Energy accounts for its interest in Enable using the equity

86

method of accounting. In February 2021, Enable entered into a definitive merger agreement with Energy Transfer. For further
discussion, see Note 5.

OGE Energy charges operating costs to OG&E and Enable based on several factors. Operating costs directly related to
OG&E and Enable are assigned as such. Operating costs incurred for the benefit of OG&E and Enable are allocated either as
overhead based primarily on labor costs or using the "Distrigas" method. The "Distrigas" method is a three-factor formula that
uses an equal weighting of payroll, net operating revenues and gross property, plant and equipment. OGE Energy adopted this
method as a result of a recommendation by the OCC Staff. OGE Energy believes this method provides a reasonable basis for
allocating common expenses.

Accounting Records

The accounting records of OG&E are maintained in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed by
the FERC and adopted by the OCC and the APSC. Additionally, OG&E, as a regulated utility, is subject to accounting
principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities, which provide that certain incurred costs that would otherwise be
charged to expense can be deferred as regulatory assets, based on the expected recovery from customers in future
rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce expense can be deferred as regulatory
liabilities, based on the expected flowback to customers in future rates. Management's expected recovery of deferred costs and
flowback of deferred credits generally results from specific decisions by regulators granting such ratemaking treatment.

OG&E records certain incurred costs and obligations as regulatory assets or liabilities if, based on regulatory orders or
other available evidence, it is probable that the costs or obligations will be included in amounts allowable for recovery or refund
in future rates.

OG&E recovers certain SPP costs related to base plan charges from its customers and refunds certain SPP revenues
received to its customers in Oklahoma through the SPP cost tracker and in Arkansas through the transmission cost recovery
rider.

OG&E recovers the Oklahoma jurisdictional portion of costs, including non-fuel operation and maintenance expenses,
depreciation, taxes other than income taxes and a return on capital, for its investment in the River Valley plant through the
Generation Capacity Replacement Rider. The OCC also authorized OG&E to defer the same costs related to its investment in
the Frontier plant to a regulatory asset, and recovery of these costs will be considered in future rate proceedings.

Fuel clause under and over recoveries are generated from OG&E's customers when OG&E's cost of fuel either exceeds
or is less than the amount billed to its customers, respectively. OG&E's fuel recovery clauses are designed to smooth the impact
of fuel price volatility on customers' bills. As a result, OG&E under recovers fuel costs in periods of rising fuel prices above the

88

baseline charge for fuel and over recovers fuel costs when prices decline below the baseline charge for fuel. Provisions in the
fuel clauses are intended to allow OG&E to amortize under and over recovery balances.

The benefit obligations regulatory asset is comprised of expenses recorded which are probable of future recovery and
that have not yet been recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost, including net loss and prior service cost. These
expenses are recorded as a regulatory asset as OG&E historically has recovered and currently recovers pension and
postretirement benefit plan expense in its electric rates. If, in the future, the regulatory bodies indicate a change in policy related
to the recovery of pension and postretirement benefit plan expenses, this could cause the benefit obligations regulatory asset
balance to be reclassified to accumulated other comprehensive income.

OG&E includes in expense any Oklahoma storm-related operation and maintenance expenses up to $2.7 million
annually and defers to a regulatory asset any additional expenses incurred over $2.7 million. OG&E expects to recover the
amounts deferred each year over a five-year period in accordance with historical practice.

As approved by the OCC, OG&E deferred the non-fuel incremental operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation,
debt cost associated with the capital investment and related ad valorem taxes for the Dry Scrubbers at Sooner Units 1 and 2 as a
regulatory asset, and these costs are being recovered over 25 years.

OG&E recovers specific amounts of pension and postretirement medical costs in rates approved in its Oklahoma rate
reviews. In accordance with approved orders, OG&E defers the difference between actual pension and postretirement medical
expenses and the amount approved in its last Oklahoma rate review as a regulatory asset or regulatory liability. These amounts
have been recorded in the Pension tracker regulatory asset in the table above.

OG&E deferred to a regulatory asset the incremental and stranded costs that were accumulated during Smart Grid
deployment, including (i) costs for web portal access, (ii) costs for education and home energy reports and (iii) stranded costs
associated with OG&E's analog electric meters, which have been replaced by smart meters. As approved by the OCC and
APSC, these costs are being recovered over a six-year period ending in 2022 in Oklahoma and 2023 in Arkansas.

Unamortized loss on reacquired debt is comprised of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the early retirement of
OG&E's long-term debt. These amounts are recorded in interest expense and are being amortized over the term of the long-term
debt which replaced the previous long-term debt. The unamortized loss on reacquired debt is recovered as a part of OG&E's
cost of capital.

Arkansas includes a certain level of pension expense in base rates. When the Pension Plan experiences a settlement,
which represents an acceleration of future pension costs, OG&E defers to a regulatory asset the Arkansas jurisdictional portion
of each settlement, which historically has been recovered from customers over the average life of the remaining plan
participants. A portion of these settlements is being recovered in current rates, and recovery of additional amounts will be
requested as additional settlements occur. For additional information related to settlements, see Note 13.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the OCC and APSC issued orders allowing OG&E to defer certain expenses
related to its COVID-19 response. For additional information about these orders, see Note 16 and "Item 7. Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Recent Developments."

OG&E recovers program costs related to the Demand and Energy Efficiency Program in Oklahoma through the
Demand Program Rider, which operates on a three-year program cycle. The current program cycle, which runs through 2021,
includes recovery of (i) energy efficiency program costs, (ii) lost revenues associated with certain achieved energy efficiency
and demand savings, (iii) performance-based incentives and (iv) costs associated with research and development investments.

89

As a result of filings with the OCC, APSC and FERC, OG&E established mechanisms to refund to customers the
amount of excess taxes received through rates, with an ongoing adjustment for any excess accumulated deferred income taxes
resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Additional amounts due to customers will be refunded in accordance with
agreements in each jurisdiction.

Income taxes refundable to customers, net, represents the reduction in accumulated deferred income taxes resulting
from the reduction in the federal income tax rate as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and includes income taxes
recoverable from customers that represent income tax benefits previously used to reduce OG&E's revenues (treated as
regulatory assets). These liabilities will be returned to customers in varying amounts over approximately 80 years, and the
assets will be amortized over the estimated remaining life of the assets to which they relate, as the temporary differences that
generated the income tax benefits turn around.

Accrued removal obligations, net represents asset retirement costs previously recovered from ratepayers for other than

legal obligations.

Management continuously monitors the future recoverability of regulatory assets. When in management's judgment
future recovery becomes impaired, the amount of the regulatory asset is adjusted, as appropriate. If OG&E were required to
discontinue the application of accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities for some or all of its operations,
it could result in writing off the related regulatory assets or liabilities, which could have significant financial effects.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. Changes to these assumptions and estimates could have a material effect on the Registrants' financial
statements. However, the Registrants believe they have taken reasonable positions where assumptions and estimates are used in
order to minimize the negative financial impact to the Registrants that could result if actual results vary from the assumptions
and estimates. In management's opinion, the areas where the most significant judgment is exercised include the determination
of Pension Plan assumptions, income taxes, contingency reserves, asset retirement obligations, regulatory assets and liabilities,
unbilled revenues and the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. For OGE Energy, significant judgment is also
exercised in the determination of any impairment of equity method investments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the financial statements, the Registrants consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair
value.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable

Customer balances are generally written off if not collected within six months after the final billing date. The
allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for OG&E is generally calculated by multiplying the last six months of electric
revenue by the provision rate, which is based on a 12-month historical average of actual balances written off and is adjusted for
current conditions and supportable forecasts as necessary. To the extent the historical collection rates, when incorporating
forecasted conditions, are not representative of future collections, there could be an effect on the amount of uncollectible
expense recognized, such as in response to COVID-19 impacts. Also, a portion of the uncollectible provision related to fuel
within the Oklahoma jurisdiction is being recovered through the fuel adjustment clause. The allowance for uncollectible
accounts receivable is a reduction to Accounts Receivable in the balance sheets and is included in Other Operation and
Maintenance Expense in the statements of income. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable was $2.6 million and
$1.5 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

New business customers are required to provide a security deposit in the form of cash, bond or irrevocable letter of
credit that is refunded when the account is closed. New residential customers whose outside credit scores indicate an elevated
risk are required to provide a security deposit that is refunded based on customer protection rules defined by the OCC and the
APSC. The payment behavior of all existing customers is continuously monitored, and, if the payment behavior indicates
sufficient risk within the meaning of the applicable utility regulation, customers will be required to provide a security deposit.

90

The Registrants considered COVID-19 pandemic impacts when calculating their reserve on accounts receivable as of
December 31, 2020, as further discussed within "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Recent Developments."

Fuel Inventories

Fuel inventories for the generation of electricity consist of coal, natural gas and oil. OG&E uses the weighted-average
cost method of accounting for inventory that is physically added to or withdrawn from storage or stockpiles. The amount of fuel
inventory was $36.5 million and $46.3 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

All property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Newly constructed plant is added to plant balances at cost which
includes contracted services, direct labor, materials, overhead, transportation costs and the allowance for funds used during
construction. Replacements of units of property are capitalized as plant. For assets that belong to a common plant account, the
replaced plant is removed from plant balances, and the cost of such property net of any salvage proceeds is charged to
Accumulated Depreciation. For assets that do not belong to a common plant account, the replaced plant is removed from plant
balances with the related accumulated depreciation, and the remaining balance net of any salvage proceeds is recorded as a loss
in the statements of income as Other Expense. Repair and replacement of minor items of property are included in the statements
of income as Other Operation and Maintenance Expense.

The following tables present OG&E's ownership interest in the jointly-owned McClain Plant and the jointly-owned
Redbud Plant, and, as disclosed below, only OG&E's ownership interest is reflected in the property, plant and equipment and
accumulated depreciation balances in these tables. The owners of the remaining interests in the McClain Plant and the Redbud
Plant are responsible for providing their own financing of capital expenditures. Also, only OG&E's proportionate interests of
any direct expenses of the McClain Plant and the Redbud Plant, such as fuel, maintenance expense and other operating
expenses, are included in the applicable financial statement captions in the statements of income.

Amortization of intangible assets is calculated using the straight-line method. Of the remaining amortizable intangible
plant balance at December 31, 2020, 99.0 percent will be amortized over 10.4 years with the remaining 1.0 percent of the
intangible plant balance at December 31, 2020 being amortized over 23.7 years.

Amortization of plant acquisition adjustments is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining service
life of the acquired assets. Plant acquisition adjustments include $148.3 million for the Redbud Plant, which is being amortized
over a 27 year life, and $3.3 million for certain transmission substation facilities in OG&E's service territory, which is being
amortized over a 37 to 59 year period.

92

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

OGE Energy's investment in Enable is considered to be a variable interest entity because the owners of the equity at
risk in this entity have disproportionate voting rights in relation to their obligations to absorb the entity's expected losses or to
receive its expected residual returns. However, OGE Energy is not considered the primary beneficiary of Enable since it does
not have the power to direct the activities of Enable that are considered most significant to the economic performance of
Enable; therefore, OGE Energy accounts for its investment in Enable using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity
method, the investment will be adjusted each period for contributions made, distributions received and OGE Energy's share of
the investee's comprehensive income as adjusted for basis differences. OGE Energy's maximum exposure to loss related to
Enable is limited to its equity investment in Enable at December 31, 2020 as presented in Note 14. OGE Energy evaluates its
equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate there is a loss in value of the
investment that is other than a temporary decline. When indicators exist, the fair value is estimated and compared to the
investment carrying value, and if any impairment is judgmentally determined to be other than temporary, the carrying value of
the investment is written down to fair value.

OGE Energy determined, effective March 31, 2020, that an other than temporary decline in the value of OGE Energy's
investment in Enable had occurred. Further information detailing the results of OGE Energy's impairment analysis and fair
value measurement can be found in Notes 5 and 7, respectively.

OGE Energy considers distributions received from Enable which do not exceed cumulative equity in earnings
subsequent to the date of investment to be a return on investment and are classified as operating activities in the statements of
cash flows. OGE Energy considers distributions received from Enable in excess of cumulative equity in earnings subsequent to
the date of investment to be a return of investment and are classified as investing activities in the statements of cash flows.

Asset Retirement Obligations

OG&E has asset retirement obligations primarily associated with the removal of company-owned wind turbines on
leased land, as well as the removal of asbestos from certain power generating stations. OG&E has recorded asset retirement
obligations that are being accreted over their respective lives ranging from five to 68 years. Asset retirement obligations are
included in Other Deferred Credits in the Registrants' balance sheets.

The following table presents changes to OG&E's asset retirement obligations during the years ended December 31,

2020 and 2019.

(B) Asset retirement obligations were settled for asbestos removal at one of OG&E's generating facilities.

Accruals for environmental costs are recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount
of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Costs are charged to expense or deferred as a regulatory asset based on expected
recovery from customers in future rates, if they relate to the remediation of conditions caused by past operations or if they are
not expected to mitigate or prevent contamination from future operations. Where environmental expenditures relate to facilities
currently in use, such as pollution control equipment, the costs may be capitalized and depreciated over the future service
periods. Estimated remediation costs are recorded at undiscounted amounts, independent of any insurance or rate recovery,
based on prior experience, assessments and current technology. Accrued obligations are regularly adjusted as environmental
assessments and estimates are revised and remediation efforts proceed. For sites where OG&E has been designated as one of
several potentially responsible parties, the amount accrued represents OG&E's estimated share of the cost. OG&E had $25.0
million and $18.7 million in accrued environmental liabilities at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which are included
in OG&E's asset retirement obligations.

93

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction

Allowance for funds used during construction, a non-cash item, is reflected as an increase to Net Other Income and a
reduction to Interest Expense in the statements of income and as an increase to Construction Work in Progress in the balance
sheets. Allowance for funds used during construction is calculated according to the FERC requirements for the imputed cost of
equity and borrowed funds. Allowance for funds used during construction rates, compounded semi-annually, were 7.3 percent,
7.6 percent and 7.6 percent for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Collection of Sales Tax

In the normal course of its operations, OG&E collects sales tax from its customers. OG&E records a current liability
for sales taxes when it bills its customers and eliminates this liability when the taxes are remitted to the appropriate
governmental authorities. OG&E excludes the sales tax collected from its operating revenues.

Revenue Recognition

General

OG&E recognizes revenue from electric sales when power is delivered to customers. The performance obligation to
deliver electricity is generally created and satisfied simultaneously, and the provisions of the regulatory-approved tariff
determine the charges OG&E may bill the customer, payment due date and other pertinent rights and obligations of both
parties. OG&E measures its customers' metered usage and sends bills to its customers throughout each month. As a result, there
is a significant amount of customers' electricity consumption that has not been billed at the end of each month. OG&E accrues
an estimate of the revenues for electric sales delivered since the latest billings. Unbilled revenue is presented in Accrued
Unbilled Revenues in the balance sheets and in Revenues from Contracts with Customers in the statements of income based on
estimates of usage and prices during the period. The estimates that management uses in this calculation could vary from the
actual amounts to be paid by customers.

Integrated Market and Transmission

OG&E currently owns and operates transmission and generation facilities as part of a vertically integrated utility.
OG&E is a member of the SPP regional transmission organization and has transferred operational authority, but not ownership,
of OG&E's transmission facilities to the SPP. The SPP has implemented FERC-approved regional day-ahead and real-time
markets for energy and operating services, as well as associated transmission congestion rights. Collectively, the three markets
operate together under the global name, SPP Integrated Marketplace. OG&E represents owned and contracted generation assets
and customer load in the SPP Integrated Marketplace for the sole benefit of its customers. OG&E has not participated in the
SPP Integrated Marketplace for any speculative trading activities.

OG&E records the SPP Integrated Marketplace transactions as sales or purchases per FERC Order 668, which requires
that purchases and sales be recorded on a net basis for each settlement period of the SPP Integrated Marketplace. Purchases and
sales are based on the fixed transaction price determined by the market at the time of the purchase or sale and the MWh quantity
purchased or sold. These results are reported as Revenues from Contracts with Customers or Cost of Sales in the statements of
income. OG&E revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities may be adversely affected by changes in the organization, operating
and regulation by the FERC or the SPP.

OG&E's transmission revenues are generated by the use of OG&E's transmission network by the SPP, which operates
the network, on behalf of other transmission owners. OG&E recognizes revenue on the sale of transmission service to its
customers over time as the service is provided in the amount OG&E has a right to invoice. Transmission service to the SPP is
billed monthly based on a fixed transaction price determined by OG&E's FERC-approved formula transmission rates along with
other SPP-specific charges and the megawatt quantity reserved.

Other Revenues

Other Revenues in the statements of income is comprised of certain rider revenue that includes alternative revenue
measures as defined in ASC 980, "Regulated Operations," which details two types of alternative revenue programs. The first
type adjusts billings for the effects of weather abnormalities or broad external factors or to compensate OG&E for demand-side
management initiatives (i.e., no-growth plans and similar conservation efforts). The second type provides for additional billings
(i.e., incentive awards) for the achievement of certain objectives, such as reducing costs, reaching specified milestones or
demonstratively improving customer service. Once the specific events permitting billing of the additional revenues under either

94

program type have been completed, OG&E recognizes the additional revenues if (i) the program is established by an order from
OG&E's regulatory commission that allows for automatic adjustment of future rates; (ii) the amount of additional revenues for
the period is objectively determinable and is probable of recovery; and (iii) the additional revenues will be collected within 24
months following the end of the annual period in which they are recognized.

Fuel Adjustment Clauses

The actual cost of fuel used in electric generation and certain purchased power costs are passed through to OG&E's
customers through fuel adjustment clauses. The fuel adjustment clauses are subject to periodic review by the OCC and the
APSC.

Leases

The Registrants evaluate all contracts under ASC 842 to determine if the contract is or contains a lease and to
determine classification as an operating or finance lease. If a lease is identified, the Registrants recognize a right-of-use asset
and a lease liability in their balance sheets. The Registrants recognize and measure a lease liability when they conclude the
contract contains an identified asset that the Registrants control through having the right to obtain substantially all of the
economic benefits and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. The liability is equal to the present value of lease
payments, and the asset is based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. Further, the Registrants
utilize an incremental borrowing rate for purposes of measuring lease liabilities, if the discount rate is not implicit in the lease.
To calculate the incremental borrowing rate, the Registrants start with a current pricing report for their senior unsecured notes,
which indicates rates for periods reflective of the lease term, and adjust for the effects of collateral to arrive at the secured
incremental borrowing rate. As permitted by ASC 842, the Registrants made an accounting policy election to not apply the
balance sheet recognition requirements to short-term leases and to not separate lease components from non-lease components
when recognizing and measuring lease liabilities. For income statement purposes, the Registrants record operating lease
expense on a straight-line basis.

Income Taxes

OGE Energy files consolidated income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions.
OG&E is a part of the consolidated tax return of OGE Energy. Income taxes are generally allocated to each company in the
affiliated group, including OG&E, based on its stand-alone taxable income or loss. Federal investment tax credits previously
claimed on electric utility property have been deferred and will be amortized to income over the life of the related property. The
Registrants use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability
is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement basis and
the tax basis of assets and liabilities as well as tax credit carry forwards and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in the period of the change. The Registrants recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in Interest
Expense and recognize penalties in Other Expense in the statements of income.

Accrued Vacation

The Registrants accrue vacation pay monthly by establishing a liability for vacation earned. Vacation may be taken as
earned and is charged against the liability. At the end of each year, the liability represents the amount of vacation earned but not
taken.

Leases

Based on their evaluation of all contracts under ASC 842, as described in Note 1, the Registrants concluded they have
operating lease obligations for OG&E's railcar leases, testing equipment and wind farm land leases. OGE Energy also has an
operating lease obligation for its office space lease.

Operating Leases

OG&E Railcar Lease Agreement

Effective February 1, 2019, OG&E renewed a railcar lease agreement for 780 rotary gondola railcars to transport coal
from Wyoming to OG&E's coal-fired generation units. Rental payments are charged to fuel expense and are recovered through
OG&E's fuel adjustment clauses. On February 1, 2024, OG&E has the option to either purchase the railcars at a stipulated fair
market value or renew the lease. If OG&E chooses not to purchase the railcars or renew the lease agreement and the actual fair
value of the railcars is less than the stipulated fair market value, OG&E would be responsible for the difference in those values
up to a maximum of $6.8 million.

OG&E Testing Equipment Lease Agreement

Effective January 1, 2020, OG&E entered into a noncancellable engineering testing equipment lease agreement, with a

term of January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022.

OG&E Wind Farm Land Lease Agreements

OG&E has operating leases related to land for OG&E's Centennial, OU Spirit and Crossroads wind farms with terms
of 25 to 30 years. The Centennial lease has rent escalations which increase annually based on the Consumer Price Index. While
lease liabilities are not remeasured as a result of changes to the Consumer Price Index, changes to the Consumer Price Index are
treated as variable lease payments and recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments was incurred. The
OU Spirit and Crossroads leases have rent escalations which increase after five and 10 years. Although the leases are
cancellable, OG&E is required to make annual lease payments as long as the wind turbines are located on the land. OG&E does
not expect to terminate the leases until the wind turbines reach the end of their useful life.

99

OGE Energy Office Space Lease

OGE Energy has a noncancellable office space lease agreement, with a term from September 1, 2018 to August 31,

2021, that allows for leasehold improvements.

Financial Statement Information and Maturity Analysis of Lease Liabilities

OGE Energy's operating lease cost was $6.4 million, $6.0 million and $4.9 million for the years ended December 31,
2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. OG&E's operating lease cost was $5.5 million, $5.1 million and $4.1 million for the years
ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

In 2013, OGE Energy, CenterPoint and the ArcLight group formed Enable as a private limited partnership, and OGE
Energy and the ArcLight group indirectly contributed 100 percent of the equity interests in Enogex LLC to Enable. OGE
Energy determined that its contribution of Enogex LLC to Enable met the requirements of being in substance real estate and
recorded the contribution at historical cost. The formation of Enable was considered a business combination, and CenterPoint
was the acquirer of Enogex Holdings for accounting purposes. Under this method, the fair value of the consideration paid by
CenterPoint for Enogex Holdings was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair value. Enogex
Holdings' assets, liabilities and equity were accordingly adjusted to estimated fair value, resulting in an increase to Enable's
equity of $2.2 billion. Since the contribution of Enogex LLC to Enable was recorded at historical cost, the effects of the
amortization and depreciation expense associated with the fair value adjustments on Enable's results of operations have been
eliminated in OGE Energy's recording of its equity in earnings of Enable. As prior real estate sales accounting guidance was
superseded by ASU 2017-05, "Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets," OGE Energy
recognizes gains or losses on sales or dilution events in its investment in Enable within OGE Energy's earnings, net of
proportional basis difference recognition.

At December 31, 2020, OGE Energy owned 111.0 million common units, or 25.5 percent, of Enable's outstanding
common units. On December 31, 2020, Enable's common unit price closed at $5.26. OGE Energy recorded equity in losses of
unconsolidated affiliates of $668.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to equity in earnings of
unconsolidated affiliates of $113.9 million and $152.8 million for the years ended 2019 and 2018, respectively. Equity in
earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates includes OGE Energy's share of Enable's earnings adjusted for the amortization of
the basis difference of OGE Energy's original investment in Enogex LLC and its underlying equity in the net assets of Enable,
as well as any impairment OGE Energy records on its investment in Enable. Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated
affiliates is also adjusted for the elimination of the Enogex Holdings fair value adjustments, as described above. These
amortizations may also include gain or loss on dilution, net of proportional basis difference recognition.

OGE Energy evaluates its equity method investment for impairment when factors indicate that a decline in the value of
its investment has occurred and the carrying amount of its investment may not be recoverable. An impairment loss, based on the
excess of the carrying value over estimated fair value of the investment, is recognized in earnings when an impairment is
deemed to be other than temporary. Considerable judgment is used in determining if an impairment loss is other than temporary
and the amount of any impairment. Effective March 31, 2020, OGE Energy estimated the fair value of its investment in Enable
was below the book value and concluded the decline in value was not temporary due to the severity of the decline and the recent
rapid deterioration, as well as the near term future outlook, of the midstream oil and gas industry. Accordingly, OGE Energy
recorded a $780.0 million impairment on its investment in Enable in March 2020, which is included in Equity in Earnings
(Losses) of Unconsolidated Affiliates in OGE Energy's 2020 income statement. Further information concerning the fair value
method used to measure the impairment on OGE Energy's investment in Enable can be found in Note 7.

The following tables present summarized unaudited financial

information for 100 percent of Enable as of

December 31, 2020 and 2019 and for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

(B) For the year ended December 31, 2020, Enable recorded a $225.0 million impairment on its SESH equity method
investment. Enable estimated the fair value of this equity method investment was below the carrying value at September
30, 2020 and concluded the decline in value was other than temporary due to the expiration of a transportation contract and
the current status of renewal negotiations. The impairment ran through OGE Energy's portion of Enable net income and
was offset by basis differences that flow through the amortization of basis difference and dilution recognition line item
above.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the difference between OGE Energy's investment in Enable and its
underlying equity in the net assets of Enable (basis difference) from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020. The basis

On April 1, 2020, Enable announced a 50 percent reduction to its quarterly distribution in order to strengthen its
balance sheet and increase its annualized retained cash flow. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations - Recent Developments" for further discussion of OGE Energy's response.

On February 12, 2021, Enable announced a quarterly dividend distribution of $0.16525 per unit on its outstanding
common units, which is unchanged from the previous quarter. If cash distributions to Enable's unitholders exceed $0.330625
per unit in any quarter, the general partner will receive increasing percentages, up to 50 percent, of the cash Enable distributes
in excess of that amount. OGE Energy is entitled to 60 percent of those "incentive distributions." In certain circumstances, the
general partner has the right to reset the minimum quarterly distribution and the target distribution levels at which the incentive
distributions receive increasing percentages to higher levels based on Enable's cash distributions at the time of the exercise of
this reset election.

Distributions received from Enable were $91.7 million, $144.0 million and $141.2 million during the years ended

December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

On February 16, 2021, Enable entered into a definitive merger agreement with Energy Transfer, pursuant to which,
and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement, all outstanding common units of Enable will be acquired by Energy
Transfer in an all-equity transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Enable's common unitholders, including OGE
Energy, will receive 0.8595 of one common unit representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer for each common unit
of Enable. The transaction is anticipated to close in 2021. The transaction is subject to the receipt of the required approvals from
the holders of a majority of Enable's common units, anti-trust approvals and other customary closing conditions. Assuming the
transaction closes, OGE Energy will own approximately three percent of Energy Transfer's outstanding limited partner units in
lieu of the 25.5 percent interest in Enable that it currently owns.

102

Contemporaneously with the execution of the merger agreement, OGE Energy entered into a support agreement with
Enable and Energy Transfer in which OGE Energy has agreed to vote its common units in favor of the merger. In addition, the
merger agreement contemplates a registration rights agreement with Energy Transfer to be executed at the closing of the merger
that provides for customary resale registration, demand registration and piggy-back registration rights with respect to Energy
Transfer common units issued to OGE Energy in the merger.

6.

Related Party Transactions

OGE Energy charges operating costs to OG&E and Enable based on several factors, and operating costs directly
related to OG&E and/or Enable are assigned as such. Operating costs incurred for the benefit of OG&E are allocated either as
overhead based primarily on labor costs or using the "Distrigas" method, which is a three-factor formula that uses an equal
weighting of payroll, net operating revenues and gross property, plant and equipment.

OGE Energy and OG&E

OGE Energy charged operating costs to OG&E of $140.6 million, $149.8 million and $140.9 million during the years
ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In 2020 and 2018, OG&E declared dividends to OGE Energy of
$325.0 million and $185.0 million, respectively. In 2019, no dividends were declared from OG&E to OGE Energy.

OGE Energy and Enable

OGE Energy and Enable are currently parties to several agreements whereby OGE Energy provides specified support
services to Enable, such as certain information technology, payroll and benefits administration. Under these agreements, OGE
Energy charged operating costs to Enable of $0.4 million, $0.5 million and $0.6 million for December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.

Pursuant to a seconding agreement, OGE Energy provides seconded employees to Enable to support Enable's
operations. As of December 31, 2020, 76 employees that participate in OGE Energy's defined benefit and retirement plans are
seconded to Enable. OGE Energy billed Enable for reimbursement of $17.3 million, $23.2 million and $27.5 million in 2020,
2019 and 2018, respectively, under the seconding agreement for employment costs. If the seconding agreement were
terminated, and those employees were no longer employed by OGE Energy, and lump sum payments were made to those
employees, OGE Energy would recognize a settlement or curtailment of the pension/retiree health care charges, which would
increase expense at OGE Energy by $19.0 million. Settlement and curtailment charges associated with the Enable seconded
employees are not reimbursable to OGE Energy by Enable. The seconding agreement can be terminated by mutual agreement
of OGE Energy and Enable or solely by OGE Energy upon 120 days' notice.

OGE Energy had accounts receivable from Enable for amounts billed for support services, including the cost of
seconded employees, of $2.0 million and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, which are included in Accounts
Receivable in OGE Energy's balance sheets.

Assuming the pending merger between Enable and Energy Transfer is completed, these agreements between OGE

Energy and Enable pursuant to which OGE Energy provides support services and seconded employees will be terminated.

OG&E and Enable

Enable provides gas transportation services to OG&E pursuant to agreements, which expire in May 2024 and
December 2038, that grant Enable the responsibility of delivering natural gas to OG&E's generating facilities and performing an
imbalance service. With this imbalance service, in accordance with the cash-out provision of the contract, OG&E purchases gas
from Enable when Enable's deliveries exceed OG&E's pipeline receipts. Enable purchases gas from OG&E when OG&E's
pipeline receipts exceed Enable's deliveries. Further, an additional gas transportation services contract with Enable became
effective in December 2018 related to the project to convert Muskogee Units 4 and 5 from coal to natural gas. The following
table presents summarized related party transactions between OG&E and Enable during the years ended December 31, 2020,
2019 and 2018.

Fair Value Measurements

The classification of the Registrants' fair value measurements requires judgment regarding the degree to which market
data is observable or corroborated by observable market data. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs
used to measure fair value based on observable and unobservable data. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs into three levels,
with the highest priority given to quoted prices in active markets for identical unrestricted assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the
lowest priority given to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels defined in the fair value hierarchy are as
follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical unrestricted assets or liabilities that are accessible at the

measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included within Level 1 that are either directly or
indirectly observable at the reporting date for the asset or liability for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2
inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or
liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3 inputs are prices or valuation techniques for the asset or liability that require inputs that are both significant to
the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Unobservable inputs reflect the
reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability
(including assumptions about risk).

The Registrants had no financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2020 and
2019. The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Registrants' financial instruments at December 31,
2020 and 2019, as well as the classification level within the fair value hierarchy.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

As further discussed in Note 5, OGE Energy recorded an impairment on its investment in Enable in March 2020. The
nonrecurring fair value measurement consisted of calculating a 20-trading day volume weighted average price for Enable's
common units through March 31, 2020. This method of valuation was determined to be representative of the fair value of
Enable's common units as it incorporated market prices during the period and reduced the impact of volatility that a single day
could represent. OGE Energy concluded that this valuation method resulted in a Level 3 nonrecurring fair value measurement.

Stock-Based Compensation

In 2013, OGE Energy adopted, and its shareholders approved, the Stock Incentive Plan. Under the Stock Incentive
Plan, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights and performance units may be granted to
officers, directors and other key employees of OGE Energy and its subsidiaries, including OG&E. OGE Energy has authorized
the issuance of up to 7,400,000 shares under the Stock Incentive Plan.

The following table presents the Registrants' pre-tax compensation expense and related income tax benefit for the
years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 related to performance units and restricted stock units for the Registrants'
employees.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, OGE Energy purchased 405,000 shares of its common stock, and 247,252
of these shares were used during the same period to satisfy payouts of earned performance units and restricted stock unit grants
to the Registrants' employees pursuant to OGE Energy's Stock Incentive Plan. OGE Energy intends to use the remaining shares
to satisfy payouts of earned performance units and restricted stock unit grants to employees pursuant to its Stock Incentive Plan.
The shares were purchased at an average cost of $38.04 and $33.14 per share on the open market during March 2020 and
August 2020, respectively. OGE Energy records treasury stock purchases at cost. Treasury stock is presented as a reduction of
stockholders' equity in OGE Energy's 2020 balance sheet.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, there was an immaterial number of shares of new common stock issued

pursuant to OGE Energy's Stock Incentive Plan to satisfy restricted stock unit grants to employees.

Performance Units

Under the Stock Incentive Plan, OGE Energy has issued performance units which represent the value of one share of
OGE Energy's common stock. The performance units provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined
in the Stock Incentive Plan). Each performance unit is subject to forfeiture if the recipient terminates employment with OGE
Energy or a subsidiary prior to the end of the primarily three-year award cycle for any reason other than death, disability or
retirement. In the event of death, disability or retirement, a participant will receive a prorated payment based on such
participant's number of full months of service during the award cycle, further adjusted based on the achievement of the
performance goals during the award cycle. The Registrants estimate expected forfeitures in accounting for performance unit
compensation expense.

The performance units granted based on total shareholder return are contingently awarded and will be payable in
shares of OGE Energy's common stock subject to the condition that the number of performance units, if any, earned by the
employees upon the expiration of a primarily three-year award cycle (i.e., three-year cliff vesting period) is dependent on OGE
Energy's total shareholder return ranking relative to a peer group of companies. The performance units granted based on
earnings per share are contingently awarded and will be payable in shares of OGE Energy's common stock based on OGE
Energy's earnings per share growth over a primarily three-year award cycle (i.e., three-year cliff vesting period) compared to a
target set at the time of the grant by the Compensation Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors. All of these
performance units are classified as equity in the balance sheets. If there is no or only a partial payout for the performance units
at the end of the award cycle, the unearned performance units are cancelled. Payout requires approval of the Compensation
Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors. Payouts, if any, are all made in common stock and are considered made when
the payout is approved by the Compensation Committee.

The fair value of the performance units based on total shareholder return was estimated on the grant date using a
lattice-based valuation model that factors in information, including the expected dividend yield, expected price volatility, risk-
free interest
the performance
units. Compensation expense for the performance units is a fixed amount determined at the grant date fair value and is
recognized over the primarily three-year award cycle regardless of whether performance units are awarded at the end of the
award cycle. Dividends are accrued on a quarterly basis pending achievement of payout criteria and are included in the fair
value calculations. Expected price volatility is based on the historical volatility of OGE Energy's common stock for the past
three years and is simulated using the Geometric Brownian Motion process. The risk-free interest rate for the performance unit
grants is based on the three-year U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The expected life of the units is
based on the non-vested period since inception of the award cycle. There are no post-vesting restrictions related to OGE
Energy's performance units based on total shareholder return. The following table presents the number of performance units
granted based on total shareholder return and the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the performance
units based on total shareholder return.

The fair value of the performance units based on earnings per share is based on grant date fair value which is
equivalent to the price of one share of OGE Energy's common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of performance units
based on earnings per share varies as the number of performance units that will vest is based on the grant date fair value of the
units and the probable outcome of the performance condition. OGE Energy reassesses at each reporting date whether
achievement of the performance condition is probable and accrues compensation expense if and when achievement of the
performance condition is probable. As a result, the compensation expense recognized for these performance units can vary from
period to period. There are no post-vesting restrictions related to OGE Energy's performance units based on earnings per share.
In 2019, the Compensation Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors voted to grant restricted stock units in lieu of
performance units based on earnings per share. For 2018, 87,308 and 30,649 performance units based on earnings per share
were granted to OGE Energy and OG&E employees, respectively, and the grant date fair value for such units granted was
$31.03.

Restricted Stock Units

Under the Stock Incentive Plan, OGE Energy has issued restricted stock units to certain existing non-officer employees
as well as other executives upon hire to attract and retain individuals to be competitive in the marketplace, and as of the 2019
grant cycle, restricted stock units are granted in lieu of performance units based on earnings per share. The restricted stock units
vest primarily in a three-year award cycle (i.e., three-year cliff vesting period). Prior to vesting, each restricted stock unit is
subject to forfeiture if the recipient ceases to render substantial services to OGE Energy or a subsidiary. These restricted stock
units may not be sold, assigned, transferred or pledged and are subject to a risk of forfeiture.

The fair value of the restricted stock units was based on the closing market price of OGE Energy's common stock on
the grant date. Compensation expense for the restricted stock units is a fixed amount determined at the grant date fair value and
is recognized as services are rendered by employees over a primarily three-year vesting period. Also, for those restricted stock
units that vest in one-third annual increments over a three-year cycle, OGE Energy treats its restricted stock units as multiple
separate awards by recording compensation expense separately for each tranche whereby a substantial portion of the expense is
recognized in the earlier years in the requisite service period.

106

Dividends will only be paid on restricted stock unit awards that vest; therefore, only the present value of dividends
expected to vest are included in the fair value calculations. The expected life of the restricted stock units is based on the non-
vested period since inception of the primarily three-year award cycle. There are no post-vesting restrictions related to OGE
Energy's restricted stock units. The following table presents the number of restricted stock units granted and the grant date fair
value.

OGE Energy files consolidated income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions.
OG&E is a part of the consolidated income tax return of OGE Energy. With few exceptions, the Registrants are no longer
subject to U.S. federal tax or state and local examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2017. Income taxes are generally
allocated to each company in the affiliated group, including OG&E, based on its stand-alone taxable income or loss. Federal
investment tax credits previously claimed on electric utility property have been deferred and will be amortized to income over
the life of the related property. Additionally, OG&E earns federal tax credits associated with production from its wind facilities.
Oklahoma production and investment state tax credits are also earned on investments in electric and solar generating facilities
which further reduce OG&E's effective tax rate.

(A) As further discussed in Note 5, OGE Energy recorded a $780.0 million impairment on its investment in Enable in March
2020, which resulted in a tax benefit being recorded that caused a significant variance to the effective tax rate as compared
to the prior year. This variance has been presented in the table as a single line item in order to facilitate comparability of
other components of the effective tax rate.

(B) Represents credits primarily associated with the production from OG&E's wind farms.

The deferred tax provisions are recognized as costs in the ratemaking process by the commissions having jurisdiction

As of December 31, 2020, the Registrants have classified $17.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits as a reduction of
deferred tax assets recorded. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant
additional payments, accruals or other material deviation from this amount.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the Registrants' total gross unrecognized tax benefits as of the years

ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

As of December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, there were $17.6 million, $16.4 million and $16.4 million, respectively, of

unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the annual effective tax rate.

Where applicable, the Registrants classify income tax-related interest and penalties as interest expense and other
expense, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2020, there were no income tax-related interest or penalties
recorded with regard to uncertain tax positions.

The Registrants recognize tax benefits from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position
will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits in the
financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent
likelihood of being realized on settlement. As a result of those measurements, in September 2020, the Registrants recorded an
additional reserve for certain federal research and development credits in the amount of $1.2 million.

The Registrants sustained federal and state tax operating losses through 2012 caused primarily by bonus depreciation
and other book versus tax temporary differences. Federal net operating losses generated during those years have been fully
utilized. State operating losses are being carried forward for utilization in future years. In addition to the tax operating losses,
the Registrants were unable to utilize the various tax credits that were generated during those years. These tax losses and credits
are being carried as deferred tax assets and will be utilized in future periods. Under current law, the Registrants anticipate future
taxable income will be sufficient to utilize remaining losses and credits before they begin to expire after 2020. The following
table presents a summary of these carry forwards.

Common Equity

OGE Energy

Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

OGE Energy issued no shares of common stock under its Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan
in 2020. OGE Energy may, from time to time, issue shares under its Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase
Plan or purchase shares traded on the open market. At December 31, 2020, there were 4,774,442 shares of unissued common
stock reserved for issuance under OGE Energy's Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan.

111

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to OGE Energy by the weighted
average number of OGE Energy's common shares outstanding during the period. In the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per
share, weighted average shares outstanding are increased for additional shares that would be outstanding if potentially dilutive
securities were converted to common stock. Potentially dilutive securities for OGE Energy consist of performance units and
restricted stock units. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for OGE

Dividend Restrictions

OGE Energy's Certificate of Incorporation places restrictions on the amount of common stock dividends it can pay
when preferred stock is outstanding. Before OGE Energy can pay any dividends on its common stock, the holders of any of its
preferred stock that may be outstanding are entitled to receive their dividends at the respective rates as may be provided for the
shares of their series. As there is no preferred stock outstanding, that restriction did not place any effective limit on OGE
Energy's ability to pay dividends to its shareholders.

OGE Energy utilizes receipts from its equity investment in Enable and dividends from OG&E to pay dividends to its
shareholders. Enable's partnership agreement requires that it distribute all "available cash," as defined as cash on hand at the end
of a quarter after the payment of expenses and the establishment of cash reserves and cash on hand resulting from working
capital borrowings made after the end of the quarter.

Pursuant to the leverage restriction in OGE Energy's revolving credit agreement, OGE Energy must maintain a
percentage of debt to total capitalization at a level that does not exceed 65 percent. The payment of cash dividends indirectly
results in an increase in the percentage of debt to total capitalization, which results in the restriction of approximately $815.0
million of OGE Energy's retained earnings from being paid out in dividends. Accordingly, approximately $1.7 billion of OGE
Energy's retained earnings as of December 31, 2020 are unrestricted for the payment of dividends.

OG&E

There were no new shares of OG&E common stock issued in 2020, 2019 or 2018.

Dividend Restrictions

Pursuant to the Federal Power Act, OG&E is restricted from paying dividends from its capital accounts. Dividends are
paid from retained earnings. Pursuant to the leverage restriction in OG&E's revolving credit agreement, OG&E must also
maintain a percentage of debt to total capitalization at a level that does not exceed 65 percent. The payment of cash dividends
indirectly results in an increase in the percentage of debt to total capitalization, which results in the restriction of approximately
$842.7 million of OG&E's retained earnings from being paid out in dividends. Accordingly, approximately $2.1 billion of
OG&E's retained earnings as of December 31, 2020 are unrestricted for the payment of dividends.

11.

Long-Term Debt

A summary of the Registrants' long-term debt is included in the statements of capitalization. The Registrants have no
long-term debt maturing in the next five years. At December 31, 2020, the Registrants were in compliance with all of their debt
agreements.

112

The Registrants have previously incurred costs related to debt refinancing. Unamortized loss on reacquired debt is
classified as a Non-Current Regulatory Asset in the balance sheets. Unamortized debt expense and unamortized premium and
discount on long-term debt are classified as Long-Term Debt in the balance sheets and are being amortized over the life of the
respective debt.

OG&E Industrial Authority Bonds

OG&E has tax-exempt pollution control bonds with optional redemption provisions that allow the holders to request
repayment of the bonds on any business day. The following table presents information about these bonds, which can be
tendered at the option of the holder during the next 12 months.

All of these bonds are subject to an optional tender at the request of the holders, at 100 percent of the principal amount,
together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase. The bond holders, on any business day, can request
repayment of the bond by delivering an irrevocable notice to the tender agent stating the principal amount of the bond, payment
instructions for the purchase price and the business day the bond is to be purchased. The repayment option may only be
exercised by the holder of a bond for the principal amount. When a tender notice has been received by the trustee, a third-party
remarketing agent for the bonds will attempt to remarket any bonds tendered for purchase. This process occurs once per
week. Since the original issuance of these series of bonds in 1995 and 1997, the remarketing agent has successfully remarketed
all tendered bonds. If the remarketing agent is unable to remarket any such bonds, OG&E is obligated to repurchase such
unremarketed bonds. As OG&E has both the intent and ability to refinance the bonds on a long-term basis and such ability is
supported by an ability to consummate the refinancing, the bonds are classified as Long-Term Debt in the balance sheets.
OG&E believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet these obligations.

Issuance of Long-Term Debt

In April 2020, OG&E issued $300.0 million of 3.25 percent senior notes due April 1, 2030. The proceeds from the
issuance were added to OG&E's general funds to be used for general corporate purposes, including to fund ongoing capital
expenditures and working capital.

12.

Short-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

The Registrants borrow on a short-term basis, as necessary, by the issuance of commercial paper and by borrowings
under their revolving credit agreements. OGE Energy also borrows under term credit agreements maturing in one year or less,
as necessary. As of December 31, 2020, OGE Energy had $95.0 million short-term debt as compared to $112.0 million short-
term debt at December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2020, OG&E had $272.0 million in advances to OGE Energy compared to
$304.8 million at December 31, 2019.

In April 2020, OGE Energy entered into a $75.0 million floating rate unsecured one-year term credit agreement and
borrowed the full $75.0 million, in order to preserve financial flexibility in response to COVID-19. Advances under this
agreement were used to refinance existing indebtedness and for working capital and general corporate purposes of OGE
Energy. The term credit agreement contained substantially the same covenants as OGE Energy's existing $450.0 million
revolving credit agreement. In September 2020, OGE Energy repaid the $75.0 million borrowed under the term credit
agreement.

borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility.

(C) This bank facility is available to back up OG&E's commercial paper borrowings and to provide revolving credit

borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility.

(D) Represents the weighted-average interest rate for the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreements,

commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit.

(E) OG&E has an intercompany borrowing agreement with OGE Energy whereby OG&E has access to up to $350.0 million of
OGE Energy's revolving credit amount. This agreement has a termination date of March 8, 2024. At December 31, 2020,
there were no intercompany borrowings under this agreement.

(F) In March 2017, the Registrants entered into unsecured five-year revolving credit agreements totaling $900.0 million
($450.0 million for OGE Energy and $450.0 million for OG&E). Each of the revolving credit facilities contained an option,
which could be exercised up to two times, to extend the term of the respective facility for an additional year. In March
2018, the Registrants each utilized one of those extensions to extend the maturity of their respective credit facility from
March 8, 2022 to March 8, 2023. In January 2021, the Registrants each utilized the second of those extensions to extend
the maturity of their respective credit facility from March 8, 2023 to March 8, 2024. Commitments of a single existing
lender with respect to $50.0 million of OGE Energy's credit facility, however, were not extended and, unless the non-
extending lender is replaced in accordance with the terms of the credit facility, such commitments will expire March 8,
2023. The non-extending lender is not party to the OG&E facility.

In January 2021, the Registrants each entered into an amendment to their revolving credit facilities which gives each of
the Registrants the option of extending such commitments for up to two additional one-year periods. In addition, the
amendment addresses the establishment of an alternative rate of interest upon the occurrence of certain events related to the
phase out of LIBOR.

On February 24, 2021, OGE Energy entered into a commitment letter with Wells Fargo and certain of its affiliates
whereby Wells Fargo committed to provide an unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion.
While borrowing availability still exists within the Registrants' credit facilities, the $1.0 billion commitment in additional short-
term financing is expected to provide additional liquidity to help cover the increased fuel and purchased power costs incurred
by OG&E during the February 2021 unprecedented cold weather event. For further discussion, see "Item 9B. Other
Information."

The Registrants' credit facilities each have a financial covenant requiring that the respective borrower maintain a
maximum debt to capitalization ratio of 65 percent, as defined in each such facility. The Registrants' facilities each also contain
covenants which restrict the respective borrower and certain of its subsidiaries in respect of, among other things, mergers and
consolidations, sales of all or substantially all assets, incurrence of liens and transactions with affiliates. The Registrants'
facilities are each subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of any default, including, among others, payment defaults on such
facilities, breach of representations, warranties and covenants, acceleration of indebtedness (other than intercompany and non-
recourse indebtedness) of $100.0 million or more in the aggregate, change of control (as defined in each such facility),
nonpayment of uninsured judgments in excess of $100.0 million and the occurrence of certain Employee Retirement Income
Security Act and bankruptcy events, subject where applicable to specified cure periods.

The Registrants' ability to access the commercial paper market could be adversely impacted by a credit ratings
downgrade or major market disruptions. Pricing grids associated with the Registrants' credit facilities could cause annual fees
and borrowing rates to increase if an adverse rating impact occurs. The impact of any future downgrade could include an
increase in the costs of the Registrants' short-term borrowings, but a reduction in the Registrants' credit ratings would not result
in any defaults or accelerations. Any future downgrade could also lead to higher long-term borrowing costs and, if below
investment grade, would require the Registrants to post collateral or letters of credit.

114

OG&E must obtain regulatory approval from the FERC in order to borrow on a short-term basis. OG&E has the
necessary regulatory approvals to incur up to $800.0 million in short-term borrowings at any one time for a two-year period
beginning January 1, 2021 and ending December 31, 2022.

13.

Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefit Plans

OGE Energy sponsors defined benefit pension plans, 401(k) savings plans and other postretirement plans covering

certain employees of the Registrants.

Pension Plan and Restoration of Retirement Income Plan

It is OGE Energy's policy to fund the Pension Plan on a current basis based on the net periodic pension expense as
determined by OGE Energy's actuarial consultants. Such contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to
service to date but also for those expected to be earned in the future. OGE Energy made a $20.0 million contribution to its
Pension Plan in both 2020 and 2019, of which $10.0 million and $5.0 million was attributed to OG&E in 2020 and 2019,
respectively. In January 2021, OGE Energy made a $40.0 million contribution to its Pension Plan and has not determined
whether it will need to make any additional contributions to the Pension Plan in 2021. Any contribution to the Pension Plan
during 2021 would be a discretionary contribution, anticipated to be in the form of cash, and is not required to satisfy the
minimum regulatory funding requirement specified by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
OGE Energy could be required to make additional contributions if the value of its pension trust and postretirement benefit plan
trust assets are adversely impacted by a major market disruption in the future.

In accordance with ASC Topic 715, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits," a one-time settlement charge is required to
be recorded by an organization when lump sum payments or other settlements that relieve the organization from the
responsibility for the pension benefit obligation during the plan year exceed the service cost and interest cost components of the
organization's net periodic pension cost. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Registrants experienced an increase in both the
number of employees electing to retire and the amount of lump sum payments paid to such employees upon retirement, which
resulted in the Registrants recording pension plan settlement charges as presented in the Pension Plan net periodic benefit cost
table. The pension settlement charges did not require a cash outlay by the Registrants and did not increase total pension expense
over time, as the charges were an acceleration of costs that otherwise would be recognized as pension expense in future periods.

OGE Energy provides a Restoration of Retirement Income Plan to those participants in OGE Energy's Pension Plan
whose benefits are subject to certain limitations of the Code. Participants in the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan receive
the same benefits that they would have received under OGE Energy's Pension Plan in the absence of limitations imposed by the
federal tax laws. The Restoration of Retirement Income Plan is intended to be an unfunded plan.

OG&E's employees participate in OGE Energy's Pension Plan and Restoration of Retirement Income Plan.

Obligations and Funded Status

The details of the funded status of OGE Energy's Pension Plan, the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan and the
postretirement benefit plans and the amounts included in the balance sheets for 2020 and 2019 are included in the following
tables. These amounts have been recorded in Accrued Benefit Obligations with the offset in Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Loss (except OG&E's portion, which is recorded as a regulatory asset as discussed in Note 1) in the balance sheets. The
amounts in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss and those recorded as a regulatory asset represent a net periodic benefit
cost to be recognized in the statements of income in future periods. The benefit obligation for OGE Energy's Pension Plan and
the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan represents the projected benefit obligation, while the benefit obligation for the
postretirement benefit plans represents the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. The accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation for OGE Energy's Pension Plan and Restoration of Retirement Income Plan differs from the projected benefit
obligation in that the former includes no assumption about future compensation levels.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, Pension Plan actuarial losses were primarily due to movement in the discount
rate, special termination benefits due to a voluntary retirement program offered by OGE Energy and more retirements and
terminations than expected which are expected to accelerate lump sum payments in 2021. These losses were partially offset by
gains from lowering the interest crediting rate and plan mortality assumptions.

Special termination benefits and curtailment loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 are related to a voluntary
retirement program offered by OGE Energy in the fourth quarter of 2020. A curtailment gain or loss is required when the
expected future services or benefits in a benefit plan are significantly reduced or eliminated.

Net Periodic Benefit Cost

The following tables present the net periodic benefit cost components, before consideration of capitalized amounts, of
OGE Energy's Pension Plan, Restoration of Retirement Income Plan and postretirement benefit plans that are included in the
financial statements. Service cost is presented within Other Operation and Maintenance, and the remaining net period benefit
cost components as listed in the following tables are presented within Other Net Periodic Benefit Income (Expense) in the
statements of income. OG&E recovers specific amounts of pension and postretirement medical costs in rates approved in its
Oklahoma rate reviews. In accordance with approved orders, OG&E defers the difference between actual pension and
postretirement medical expenses and the amount approved in its last Oklahoma rate review as a regulatory asset or regulatory
liability. These amounts have been recorded in the Pension tracker in the regulatory assets and liabilities table in Note 1 and
within Other Net Periodic Benefit Income (Expense) in the statements of income.

The discount rate used to compute the present value of plan liabilities is based generally on rates of high-grade
corporate bonds with maturities similar to the average period over which benefits will be paid. The discount rate used to
determine net benefit cost for the current year is the same discount rate used to determine the benefit obligation as of the
previous year's balance sheet date, unless a plan settlement occurs during the current year that requires an updated discount rate
for net periodic cost measurement. For 2020 and 2019, the Pension Plan discount rates used to determine net periodic benefit
cost are disclosed on a weighted-average basis.

The overall expected rate of return on plan assets assumption is used in determining net periodic benefit cost due to
recent returns on OGE Energy's long-term investment portfolio. The rate of return on plan assets assumption is the average
long-term rate of earnings expected on the funds currently invested and to be invested for the purpose of providing benefits
specified by the Pension Plan or postretirement benefit plans. This assumption is reexamined at least annually and updated as
necessary. The rate of return on plan assets assumption reflects a combination of historical return analysis, forward-looking
return expectations and the plans' current and expected asset allocation.

The assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for postretirement medical
benefit plans. Future health care cost trend rates are assumed to be 6.75 percent in 2021 with the rates trending downward to
4.50 percent by 2030.

Pension Plan

Pension Plan Investments, Policies and Strategies

The Pension Plan assets are held in a trust which follows an investment policy and strategy designed to reduce the
funded status volatility of the Plan by utilizing liability driven investing. The purpose of liability-driven investing is to structure
the asset portfolio to more closely resemble the pension liability and thereby more effectively hedge against changes in the
liability. The investment policy follows a glide path approach that shifts a higher portfolio weighting to fixed income as the
Plan's funded status increases. The following table presents the targeted fixed income and equity allocations at different funded
status levels.

OGE Energy has retained an investment consultant responsible for the general investment oversight, analysis,
monitoring investment guideline compliance and providing quarterly reports to certain of the Registrants' members and OGE
Energy's Investment Committee. The various investment managers used by the trust operate within the general operating
objectives as established in the investment policy and within the specific guidelines established for each investment manager's
respective portfolio.

The portfolio is rebalanced at least on an annual basis to bring the asset allocations of various managers in line with the
target asset allocation listed above. More frequent rebalancing may occur if there are dramatic price movements in the financial
markets which may cause the trust's exposure to any asset class to exceed or fall below the established allowable guidelines.

To evaluate the progress of the portfolio, investment performance is reviewed quarterly. It is, however, expected that
performance goals will be met over a full market cycle, normally defined as a three- to five-year period. Analysis of
performance is within the context of the prevailing investment environment and the advisors' investment style. The goal of the
trust is to provide a rate of return consistently from three percent to five percent over the rate of inflation (as measured by the
national Consumer Price Index) on a fee adjusted basis over a typical market cycle of no less than three years and no more than
five years. Each investment manager is expected to outperform its respective benchmark.

The following table presents a list of each asset class utilized with appropriate comparative benchmark(s) each

manager is evaluated against and the focus of the asset class.

(A) GAAP allows the measurement of certain investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value at the net asset
value. These investments do not consider the observability of inputs; therefore, they are not included within the fair value
hierarchy.

(B) This category represents U.S. Treasury notes and bonds with a Moody's Investors Service rating of Aaa and Government

Agency Bonds with a Moody's Investors Service rating of A1 or higher.

(C) This category represents units of participation in a commingled fund that primarily invested in stocks of international

companies and emerging markets.

As defined in the fair value hierarchy, Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical unrestricted
assets or liabilities that are accessible by the Pension Plan at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted
prices in active markets included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable at the reporting date for the
asset or liability for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3
inputs are prices or valuation techniques for the asset or liability that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value
measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Unobservable inputs reflect the Plan's own
assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions
about risk).

Expected Benefit Payments

The following table presents the benefit payments the Registrants expect to pay related to the Pension Plan and
Restoration of Retirement Income Plan. These expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure OGE
Energy's benefit obligation at the end of the year and include benefits attributable to estimated future employee service.

Postretirement Benefit Plans

In addition to providing pension benefits, OGE Energy provides certain medical and life insurance benefits for eligible
retired members. Regular, full-time, active employees hired prior to February 1, 2000 whose age and years of credited service
total or exceed 80 or have attained at least age 55 with 10 or more years of service at the time of retirement are entitled to
postretirement medical benefits, while employees hired on or after February 1, 2000 are not entitled to postretirement medical
benefits. Eligible retirees must contribute such amount as OGE Energy specifies from time to time toward the cost of coverage
for postretirement benefits. The benefits are subject to deductibles, co-payment provisions and other limitations. OG&E charges
postretirement benefit costs to expense and includes an annual amount as a component of the cost-of-service in future
ratemaking proceedings.

OGE Energy's contribution to the medical costs for pre-65 aged eligible retirees are fixed at the 2011 level, and OGE
Energy covers future annual medical inflationary cost increases up to five percent. Increases in excess of five percent annually
are covered by the pre-65 aged retiree in the form of premium increases. OGE Energy provides Medicare-eligible retirees and
their Medicare-eligible spouses an annual fixed contribution to an OGE Energy-sponsored health reimbursement arrangement.
Medicare-eligible retirees are able to purchase individual insurance policies supplemental to Medicare through a third-party
administrator and use their health reimbursement arrangement funds for reimbursement of medical premiums and other eligible
medical expenses.

Post-Employment Benefit Plan

Disabled employees receiving benefits from OGE Energy's Group Long-Term Disability Plan are entitled to continue
participating in OGE Energy's Medical Plan along with their dependents. The post-employment benefit obligation represents
the actuarial present value of estimated future medical benefits that are attributed to employee service rendered prior to the date
as of which such information is presented. The obligation also includes future medical benefits expected to be paid to current
employees participating in the Group Long-Term Disability Plan and their dependents, as defined in OGE Energy's Medical
Plan.

The post-employment benefit obligation is determined by an actuary on a basis similar to the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation. The estimated future medical benefits are projected to grow with expected future medical cost
trend rates and are discounted for interest at the discount rate and for the probability that the participant will discontinue
receiving benefits from OGE Energy's Group Long-Term Disability Plan due to death, recovery from disability or eligibility for
retiree medical benefits. OGE Energy's post-employment benefit obligation was $2.2 million and $2.1 million at December 31,
2020 and 2019, respectively, of which $1.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, was OG&E's portion of the obligation.

401(k) Plan

OGE Energy provides a 401(k) Plan, and each regular full-time employee of OGE Energy or a participating affiliate is
eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan immediately upon hire. All other employees of OGE Energy or a participating affiliate
are eligible to become participants in the 401(k) Plan after completing one year of service as defined in the 401(k) Plan.
Participants may contribute each pay period any whole percentage between two percent and 19 percent of their compensation,
as defined in the 401(k) Plan, for that pay period. Participants who have reached age 50 before the close of a year are allowed to
make additional contributions referred to as "Catch-Up Contributions," subject to certain limitations of the Code. Participants
may designate, at their discretion, all or any portion of their contributions as: (i) a before-tax contribution under Section 401(k)
of the Code subject to the limitations thereof, (ii) a contribution made on a non-Roth after-tax basis or (iii) a Roth contribution.
The 401(k) Plan also includes an eligible automatic contribution arrangement and provides for a qualified default investment
alternative consistent with the U.S. Department of Labor regulations. Participants may elect, in accordance with the 401(k) Plan
procedures, to have their future salary deferral rate to be automatically increased annually on a date and in an amount as
specified by the participant in such election. For employees hired or rehired on or after December 1, 2009, OGE Energy
contributes to the 401(k) Plan, on behalf of each participant, 200 percent of the participant's contributions up to five percent of
compensation.

No OGE Energy contributions are made with respect to a participant's Catch-Up Contributions, rollover contributions
or with respect to a participant's contributions based on overtime payments, pay-in-lieu of overtime for exempt personnel,
special lump-sum recognition awards and lump-sum merit awards included in compensation for determining the amount of
participant contributions. Once made, OGE Energy's contribution may be directed to any available investment option in the
401(k) Plan. OGE Energy match contributions vest over a three-year period. After two years of service, participants become 20
percent vested in their OGE Energy contribution account and become fully vested on completing three years of service. In
addition, participants fully vest when they are eligible for normal or early retirement under the Pension Plan requirements, in
the event of their termination due to death or permanent disability or upon attainment of age 65 while employed by OGE
Energy or its affiliates. OGE Energy contributed $18.2 million, $14.4 million and $13.2 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018,
respectively, to the 401(k) Plan, of which $14.3 million, $11.0 million and $9.8 million, respectively, related to OG&E.

126

Deferred Compensation Plan

OGE Energy provides a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which is intended to be an unfunded plan. The plan's
primary purpose is to provide a tax-deferred capital accumulation vehicle for a select group of management, highly
compensated employees and non-employee members of OGE Energy's Board of Directors and to supplement such employees'
401(k) Plan contributions as well as offering this plan to be competitive in the marketplace.

Eligible employees who enroll in the plan have the following deferral options: (i) eligible employees may elect to defer
up to a maximum of 70 percent of base salary and 100 percent of annual bonus awards or (ii) eligible employees may elect a
deferral percentage of base salary and bonus awards based on the deferral percentage elected for a year under the 401(k) Plan
with such deferrals to start when maximum deferrals to the qualified 401(k) Plan have been made because of limitations in that
plan. Eligible directors who enroll in the plan may elect to defer up to a maximum of 100 percent of directors' meeting fees and
annual retainers. OGE Energy matches employee (but not non-employee director) deferrals to make up for any match lost in the
401(k) Plan because of deferrals to the deferred compensation plan and to allow for a match that would have been made under
the 401(k) Plan on that portion of either the first six percent of total compensation or the first five percent of total
compensation, depending on prior participant elections, deferred that exceeds the limits allowed in the 401(k) Plan. Matching
credits vest based on years of service, with full vesting after three years or, if earlier, on retirement, disability, death, a change
in control of OGE Energy or termination of the plan. Deferrals, plus any OGE Energy match, are credited to a recordkeeping
account in the participant's name. Earnings on the deferrals are indexed to the assumed investment funds selected by the
participant. In 2020, those investment options included an OGE Energy Common Stock fund, whose value was determined
based on the stock price of OGE Energy's Common Stock. OGE Energy accounts for the contributions related to its executive
officers in this plan as Accrued Benefit Obligations and accounts for the contributions related to OGE Energy's directors in this
plan as Other Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities in the balance sheets. The investment associated with these contributions is
accounted for as Other Property and Investments in the balance sheets. The appreciation of these investments is accounted for
as Other Income, and the increase in the liability under the plan is accounted for as Other Expense in the statements of income.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

OGE Energy provides a supplemental executive retirement plan in order to attract and retain lateral hires or other
executives designated by the Compensation Committee of OGE Energy's Board of Directors who may not otherwise qualify for
a sufficient level of benefits under OGE Energy's Pension Plan and Restoration of Retirement Income Plan. The supplemental
executive retirement plan is intended to be an unfunded plan and not subject to the benefit limitations of the Code. For the
actuarial equivalence calculations, the supplemental executive retirement plan provides that (i) mortality rates shall be based on
the unisex mortality table issued under Internal Revenue Service Notice 2018-02 for purposes of determining the minimum
present value under Code Section 417(e)(3) for distributions with annuity starting dates that occur during stability periods
beginning in the 2019 calendar year and (ii) the interest rate shall be five percent.

Commitments and Contingencies

Public Utility Regulatory Policy Act of 1978

OG&E had QF contracts with AES-Shady Point, Inc. and Oklahoma Cogeneration LLC, which expired in January and
August 2019, respectively. For the 320 MW AES-Shady Point, Inc. QF contract and the 120 MW Oklahoma Cogeneration LLC
QF contract, OG&E purchased 100 percent of the electricity generated by the qualified cogeneration facilities. In 2019, OG&E
received approval from the OCC and APSC to acquire the plants from AES-Shady Point, Inc. and Oklahoma Cogeneration
LLC.

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, OG&E made total payments to cogenerators of $14.7 million and
$112.4 million, respectively, of which $7.4 million and $60.0 million, respectively, represented capacity payments. All
payments for purchased power, including cogeneration, are included in the Registrants' statements of income as Cost of Sales.

OG&E Minimum Purchase Commitments

OG&E has coal contracts for purchases through June 30, 2021, whereby OG&E has the right but not the obligation to
purchase a defined quantity of coal. OG&E may also purchase coal through spot purchases on an as-needed basis. As a
participant in the SPP Integrated Marketplace, OG&E purchases its natural gas supply through short-term agreements. OG&E
relies on a combination of natural gas base load agreements and call agreements, whereby OG&E has the right but not the
obligation to purchase a defined quantity of natural gas, combined with day and intra-day purchases to meet the demands of the
SPP Integrated Marketplace.

129

OG&E has natural gas transportation service contracts with Enable, ONEOK, Inc. and Southern Star. The contracts
with Enable end in May 2024 and December 2038; the contracts with ONEOK, Inc. end in March 2024 and August 2037; and
the contract with Southern Star ends in June 2024. These transportation contracts grant Enable, ONEOK, Inc. and Southern Star
the responsibility of delivering natural gas to OG&E's generating facilities.

OG&E Long-Term Service Agreement Commitments

OG&E has a long-term parts and service maintenance contract for the upkeep of the McClain Plant. In May 2013, a
new contract was signed that is expected to run for the earlier of 128,000 factored-fired hours or 4,800 factored-fired starts. In
December 2015, the McClain Long-Term Service Agreement was amended to define the terms and conditions for the exchange
of spare rotors between OG&E and General Electric International, Inc. Based on historical usage and current expectations for
future usage, this contract is expected to run until 2033. The contract requires payments based on both a fixed and variable cost
component, depending on how much the McClain Plant is used.

OG&E has a long-term parts and service maintenance contract for the upkeep of the Redbud Plant. In March 2013, the
contract was amended to extend the contract coverage for an additional 24,000 factored-fired hours resulting in a maximum of
the earlier of 144,000 factored-fired hours or 4,500 factored-fired starts. Based on historical usage and current expectations for
future usage, this contract is expected to run until 2030. The contract requires payments based on both a fixed and variable cost
component, depending on how much the Redbud Plant is used.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

The activities of the Registrants are subject to numerous stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and
regulations governing environmental protection. These laws and regulations can change, restrict or otherwise impact the
Registrants' business activities in many ways, including the handling or disposal of waste material, planning for future
construction activities to avoid or mitigate harm to threatened or endangered species and requiring the installation and operation
of emissions or pollution control equipment. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in the assessment of
administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements and the issuance of orders enjoining future
operations. Management believes that all of the Registrants' operations are in substantial compliance with current federal, state
and local environmental standards.

Environmental regulation can increase the cost of planning, design, initial installation and operation of OG&E's
legislation and

facilities. Management continues to evaluate its compliance with existing and proposed environmental
regulations and implement appropriate environmental programs in a competitive market.

130

CO2 Emission Limits for Existing Generating Units

On January 19, 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals vacated the EPA's latest effort to adopt CO2 emissions standards for
existing coal-fired electric generating units, and the court remanded the matter to the EPA for further consideration. The
decision was based on the court's conclusion that the Clean Air Act does not require the EPA to limit the standards to measures
that can be applied at and to an existing unit. The time for seeking further judicial review of the decision does not expire until
June 18, 2021, and the EPA has not announced how it plans to respond to the decision. The ultimate timing and impact of these
standards on OG&E's operations cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although a requirement for significant
reduction of CO2 emissions from existing fossil-fuel-fired power plants ultimately could result in significant additional
compliance costs that would affect the Registrants' future financial position, results of operations and cash flows if such costs
are not recovered through regulated rates.

Other

In the normal course of business, the Registrants are confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent
liability. These generally relate to lawsuits or claims made by third parties, including governmental agencies. When appropriate,
management consults with legal counsel and other experts to assess the claim. If, in management's opinion, the Registrants have
incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are
reflected in the financial statements. At the present time, based on currently available information, the Registrants believe that
any reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued amounts arising out of pending or threatened lawsuits or claims would not
be quantitatively material to their financial statements and would not have a material adverse effect on their financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.

16.

Rate Matters and Regulation

Regulation and Rates

OG&E's retail electric tariffs are regulated by the OCC in Oklahoma and by the APSC in Arkansas. The issuance of
certain securities by OG&E is also regulated by the OCC and the APSC. OG&E's transmission activities, short-term borrowing
authorization and accounting practices are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC. The Secretary of the U.S. Department of
Energy has jurisdiction over some of OG&E's facilities and operations. In 2020, 86 percent of OG&E's electric revenue was
subject to the jurisdiction of the OCC, eight percent to the APSC and six percent to the FERC.

The OCC and the APSC require that, among other things, (i) OGE Energy permits the OCC and the APSC access to
the books and records of OGE Energy and its affiliates relating to transactions with OG&E; (ii) OGE Energy employ
accounting and other procedures and controls to protect against subsidization of non-utility activities by OG&E's customers;
and (iii) OGE Energy refrain from pledging OG&E assets or income for affiliate transactions. In addition, the FERC has access
to the books and records of OGE Energy and its affiliates as the FERC deems relevant to costs incurred by OG&E or necessary
or appropriate for the protection of utility customers with respect to the FERC jurisdictional rates.

Completed Regulatory Matters

APSC Proceedings

Arkansas 2019 Formula Rate Plan Filing

OG&E filed its second evaluation report under its Formula Rate Plan in October 2019. On February 28, 2020, the
APSC approved a settlement agreement among OG&E, the General Staff of the APSC and the Office of the Arkansas Attorney
General providing for a $5.2 million revenue increase, with rates effective April 1, 2020. The settling parties agreed that the
Series I grid modernization projects are prudent in both action and cost and that the Series II grid modernization projects are
prudent in action only and the determination of prudence of costs will be reserved until the actual historical costs are reviewed.
The settling parties also agreed that OG&E will no longer use projections for the remaining initial term or extension of its
current Formula Rate Plan and that all costs will be included for recovery for the first time in the historical year.

Order Regarding COVID-19

On April 10, 2020, the APSC issued Order No. 1 related to COVID-19 and the provision of safe, adequate and reliable
utility service at just and reasonable rates. Among other things, the APSC ordered the suspension of customer disconnects for
non-payment during the pendency of the Arkansas Governor's emergency declaration or until the directive is rescinded by the

131

APSC, neither of which have occurred yet, although the APSC has requested comments as to whether the moratorium should be
lifted. The order encourages companies to provide reasonable payment arrangements once the suspension is lifted. The APSC
also authorized utilities to establish regulatory assets to record costs resulting from the suspension of disconnections. These
regulatory assets will be reviewed in future proceedings for reasonableness. The APSC ordered the General Staff of the APSC
to consult with utilities to create a quarterly report to be used to report the costs incurred and saved that have been booked to the
regulatory asset. OG&E is monitoring the regulatory activity regarding COVID-19 at the APSC and will consider the request
for additional regulatory action by the APSC as needed.

On May 1, 2020, OG&E filed a Request for Additional Actions and Tariff Deviation seeking relief from the Arkansas
General Service Rules and OG&E's Terms and Conditions under the tariff, in order to allow for: more flexible deferred
payment agreements for all customer classes, suspension of increased deposits due to non-payment and suspension of the
removal of customers from certain billing and extended due date plans for late payments. In addition, OG&E requested that
incremental expenses, such as additional personal protective equipment, increased sanitation efforts at facilities, implementing
health-screening processes and securing temporary facilities for potential sequestration of critical operation personnel, be
tracked in a regulatory asset. OG&E noted that all possible cost categories are not known currently and reserved the right to file
subsequent requests as needed.

On May 27, 2020, the APSC issued an order approving OG&E's request to deviate from the specified terms in the
Arkansas General Service Rules and OG&E's Terms and Conditions to allow deferred payment arrangements to be offered to
all customer classes and have more flexible payment arrangements. OG&E is authorized to record the expenses requested in its
regulatory asset to defer and seek future recovery. The APSC found that because each utility has different cost recovery
mechanisms and the magnitude of the utilities' expenses are unknown at this time, the APSC finds that it is premature to decide
the exact recovery mechanism for any utility for COVID-19 related costs.

Environmental Compliance Plan Rider

In May 2019, OG&E filed an environmental compliance plan rider in Arkansas to recover its investment for the
environmentally mandated costs associated with the Sooner Dry Scrubbers project and the conversion of Muskogee Units 4 and
5 to natural gas. The filing initiated an interim surcharge, subject to refund, that began with the first billing cycle of June 2019.
OG&E had been reserving the amounts collected through the interim surcharge, pending APSC approval of OG&E's filing. A
hearing on the merits was held in December 2019. Parties submitted additional briefs to the APSC in March 2020, which were
requested due to certain intervenors questioning whether a company can utilize an environmental compliance plan rider while
also being regulated under a formula rate plan. The APSC Staff concurred with OG&E that the rider may run concurrently with
a formula rate plan, and the Arkansas Attorney General and other intervenors were in opposition. On July 31, 2020, OG&E's
request to recover its investment for these environmentally mandated costs through the interim surcharge was not approved, as
the APSC indicated OG&E could otherwise recover this investment, such as through the Formula Rate Plan Rider. As of
December 31, 2020, OG&E has returned $5.3 million to customers that had been reserved for refund and has included those
costs for recovery in its 2020 Formula Rate Plan filing.

Arkansas Solar

On July 29, 2020, OG&E submitted its application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to construct
and operate a five MW solar generation facility near Branch, Arkansas. On September 30, 2020, the parties reached a
unanimous settlement agreement relating to the filing, and on November 6, 2020, the APSC issued a final order approving the
settlement agreement. The terms of the settlement are as follows: (i) parties agree that OG&E has complied with Arkansas law
and rules of practice and procedure and recommend granting a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for the
construction, ownership and operation of the project and associated tariffs; (ii) OG&E agrees that it would not seek cost
recovery until its next general rate review or Formula Rate Plan filing; (iii) OG&E agrees to keep detailed records of final cost,
for review at such time that cost recovery is sought, including all cost variance estimates, whereby a determination of prudency
of cost may be made; and (iv) OG&E agrees to reserve 50 percent of the total expected energy produced for residential
customers for the first 90 days of the program's initial subscription period.

Net Metering Order

On June 1, 2020, the APSC revised its net-metering rules. The revised rules retained 1:1 full credit for net excess
generation of residential customers and commercial customers up to 1 MW without demand charges. For larger commercial
customers, 1 MW to 20 MW, the APSC found that some cost shifting to non-net-metering customers may occur. While the
rules retain 1:1 full credit for net excess generation, they allow for a grid charge. The grid charge is initially set at zero;
however, a utility may request approval to revise the grid charge based on evidence that an unreasonable cost shift to non-net-
metering customers is occurring. OG&E does not currently have a significant number of net-metering customers in Arkansas.

132

OG&E amended its existing net-metering tariffs considering the new rules. The APSC approved OG&E's revised tariffs on
February 5, 2021.

OCC Proceedings

OCC Public Utility Division Motion Regarding COVID-19

On April 28, 2020, the Director of the Public Utility Division filed an application requesting an order from the OCC
authorizing action in response to COVID-19. The application requested that the OCC authorize the State's utilities to record as a
regulatory asset increased bad debt expenses, costs associated with expanded payment plans, waived fees and incremental
expenses that are directly related to the suspension of or delay in disconnection of service beginning March 15, 2020, which
coincides with the issuance of the Oklahoma Governor's emergency declaration. The application also requested that the OCC
allow utilities to defer additional expenses associated with ensuring the continuity of utility service, such as additional personal
protective equipment, increased sanitation efforts at facilities, implementing heath-screening processes and securing temporary
facilities for potential sequestration of critical operation personnel. The application asked the OCC to consider in future
proceedings whether each utility's request for recovery of these regulatory assets is reasonable and necessary and to consider
issues such as the incremental bad debt experienced over normal periods, the appropriate period of recovery for any approved
amount of regulatory asset, any amount of carrying costs and other related matters.

On May 7, 2020, the OCC ordered that each utility is authorized to record as a regulatory asset any increased bad debt
expense, cost associated with expanded payment plans, waived fees and incremental expenses that are directly related to the
suspension of or delay in disconnection of service beginning March 15, 2020 until September 2020, unless otherwise ordered
by the OCC. The OCC will consider in future proceedings whether each utility's request for recovery of these regulatory assets
is reasonable and necessary. The OCC will also consider issues such as the incremental bad debt experienced over normal
periods, appropriate period of recovery for any approved amount of regulatory assets, any amounts of carrying costs thereon
and other related matters. The OCC also authorized utilities to defer expenses associated with ensuring continuity of service and
protecting utility personnel, customers and the general public.

2019 Oklahoma Fuel Prudency

On June 16, 2020, the Public Utility Division Staff filed their application initiating the review of the 2019 fuel
adjustment clause and prudence review. On December 30, 2020, the OCC issued a final order finding OG&E's 2019 fuel costs
and related practices prudent.

Oklahoma Grid Enhancement Plan

On February 24, 2020, OG&E filed an application with the OCC for approval of a mechanism that allows for interim
recovery of the costs associated with its grid enhancement plan. The plan includes approximately $800.0 million of strategic,
data-driven investments, over five years, covering grid resiliency, grid automation, communication systems and technology
platforms and applications. On May 19, 2020, the OCC temporarily suspended the procedural schedule in light of various
conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty surrounding the method and date in which the hearing on the
merits may occur. On July 9, 2020, a prehearing conference was held before the Administrative Law Judge to establish a
procedural schedule and lift the stay ordered on May 19, 2020. On July 23, 2020, the OCC issued an order approving the
amended procedural schedule and thereby lifting the stay.

On October 5, 2020, OG&E filed a Joint Stipulation and Settlement Agreement that included the following key terms:
(i) cost recovery through a rider mechanism will be limited to projects placed in service in 2020 and 2021, capped at a revenue
requirement of $7.0 million annually and only include communication, automation and technology systems projects; (ii) no
operation and maintenance expense will be included in the rider mechanism; (iii) the rider mechanism will terminate by the
issuance of a final order in OG&E's next general rate review or October 31, 2022, whichever occurs first; (iv) the rider
mechanism rate of return will be capped at OG&E's current cost of capital; and (v) all cost recovery is subject to true-up and
refund in OG&E's next general rate review. On November 5, 2020, the OCC issued a final order approving the Joint Stipulation
and Settlement Agreement. In compliance with the final order, OG&E submitted a final list of projects for inclusion in the rider
mechanism on December 5, 2020 and a revised rider mechanism for initial recovery of costs on December 15, 2020. The rider
mechanism became effective on February 1, 2021.

Any capital investment falling outside the criteria of the rider mechanism will be included in OG&E's next general rate

review for recovery.

Pending Regulatory Matters

Various proceedings pending before state or federal regulatory agencies are described below. Unless stated otherwise,
the Registrants cannot predict when the regulatory agency will act or what action the regulatory agency will take. The
Registrants' financial results are dependent in part on timely and adequate decisions by the regulatory agencies that set OG&E's
rates.

FERC Proceedings

Order for Sponsored Transmission Upgrades within SPP

Under the SPP Open Access Transmission Tariff, costs of participant-funded, or "sponsored," transmission upgrades
may be recovered from other SPP customers whose transmission service depends on capacity enabled by the upgrade. The SPP
Open Access Transmission Tariff required the SPP to charge for these upgrades beginning in 2008, but the SPP had not been
charging its customers for these upgrades due to information system limitations. However, the SPP had informed participants in
the market that these charges would be forthcoming. In July 2016, the FERC granted the SPP's request to recover the charges
not billed since 2008. The SPP subsequently billed OG&E for these charges and credited OG&E related to transmission
upgrades that OG&E had sponsored, which resulted in OG&E being a net receiver of sponsored upgrade credits. The majority
of these net credits were refunded to customers through OG&E's various rate riders that include SPP activity with the remaining
amounts retained by OG&E.

Several companies that were net payers of Z2 charges sought rehearing of the FERC's July 2016 order; however, in
November 2017, the FERC denied the rehearing requests. In January 2018, one of the impacted companies appealed the
FERC's decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In July 2018, that court granted a motion
requested by the FERC that the case be remanded back to the FERC for further examination and proceedings. In February 2019,
the FERC reversed its July 2016 order and November 2017 rehearing denial, ruled that the SPP violated its tariff to charge for
the 2008 - 2015 period in 2016, held that the SPP tariff provision that prohibited those charges could not be waived and ordered
the SPP to develop a plan to refund the payments but not to implement the refunds until further ordered to do so. In response, in
April 2019, OG&E filed a request for rehearing with the FERC, and in May 2019, OG&E filed a FERC 206 complaint against
the SPP, alleging that the SPP's forced unwinding of the revenue credit payments to OG&E would violate the provisions of the
Sponsored Upgrade Agreement and of the applicable tariff. OG&E's filing requested that the FERC rule that the SPP is not
entitled to seek refunds or in any other way seek to unwind the revenue credit payments it had paid to OG&E pursuant to the
Sponsored Upgrade Agreement. The SPP's response to OG&E's filing agreed that OG&E should be entitled to keep its Z2
payments and argued that the SPP should not be held responsible for those payments if refunds are ordered. Further, the SPP
has requested the FERC to negotiate a global settlement with all impacted parties, including other project sponsors who, like
OG&E, have also filed complaints at FERC contending that the payments they have received cannot properly be unwound.

On February 20, 2020, the FERC denied OG&E's request for rehearing of its February 2019 order, denying the waiver
and ruling that the SPP must seek refunds from project sponsors for Z2 payments for the 2008 through 2015 period and pay
them back to transmission owners. The FERC also denied the SPP's request for a stay and for institution of settlement
procedures. The FERC stated it would not institute settlement procedures unless parties on both sides of the matter requested
them. The FERC did not rule on OG&E's complaint or the complaints of other project sponsors, or consider the SPP's refund
plan. The FERC thus has not set any date for payment of refunds. On March 2, 2020, OG&E petitioned the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit for review of the FERC's order denying the waiver and requiring refunds. The
appeal will likely be decided by the second quarter of 2021.

The Registrants cannot predict the outcome of this proceeding based on currently available information, and as of
December 31, 2020 and at present time, the Registrants have not reserved an amount for a potential refund. If the reversal of the
July 2016 FERC order remains intact, OG&E estimates it would be required to refund $13.0 million, which is net of amounts
paid to other utilities for upgrades and would be subject to interest at the FERC-approved rate. If refunds were required,
recovery of these upgrade credits would shift to future periods. Of the $13.0 million, the Registrants would be impacted by $5.0
million in expense that initially benefited the Registrants in 2016, and OG&E customers would incur a net impact of $8.0
million in expense through rider mechanisms or the FERC formula rate.

On January 31, 2020, the FERC acted on an SPP proposal to eliminate Attachment Z2 revenue crediting and replace it
with a different rate mechanism that would provide project sponsors, such as OG&E, the same level of recovery, and rejected
the proposal to the extent it would limit recovery to the amount of the upgrade sponsor's directly assigned upgrade costs with
interest. The SPP resubmitted a proposal on April 29, 2020 without this limited recovery, and with the alternative rate
mechanism, and the FERC approved it on June 30, 2020, effective July 1, 2020. No party sought rehearing of the order, and it is

134

now final. This order would only prospectively impact OG&E and its recovery of any future upgrade costs that it may incur as a
project sponsor. All of the existing projects that are eligible to receive revenue credits under Attachment Z2, which includes the
$13.0 million at issue in OG&E's appeal as discussed above, will continue to do so.

APSC Proceedings

Arkansas 2020 Formula Rate Plan Filing

On October 1, 2020, OG&E filed its third evaluation report under its Formula Rate Plan, and on January 28, 2021,
OG&E entered into a non-unanimous settlement agreement with the APSC General Staff and the Office of the Arkansas
Attorney General. The only non-signatory to the settlement agreement has agreed not to oppose the settlement. The settlement
agreement includes a revenue increase of $6.7 million, which is the maximum amount statutorily allowed in this filing.
Additionally, the settling parties will not object to OG&E's request for a finding that the Arkansas Series II grid modernization
projects included in this filing are prudent in cost. A final order is requested from the APSC in March 2021, and new rates will
become effective April 1, 2021.

Disconnection Procedures Related to COVID-19

On September 17, 2020, the APSC issued Order No. 9 inviting comments from all jurisdictional utilities and any other
interested stakeholders on specific questions related to whether a moratorium on service terminations should be lifted and if so,
how the resumption of disconnections should occur. The APSC also ordered utilities to submit a detailed "Transitional Plan"
outlining how utilities propose to reinstate routine service disconnection activities and collection of past due amounts once the
moratorium is lifted. OG&E submitted its proposed Transitional Plan on October 14, 2020. The APSC General Staff thereafter
filed reports for utilities that set forth recommendations as to the form of notice that should occur prior to lifting the moratorium
and resuming disconnections, as well as payment arrangements that should be made available to customers.

On February 8, 2021, the APSC issued Order No. 15 announcing a target date of May 3, 2021 to lift the moratorium on
disconnections and requiring certain conditions and requirements that utilities must meet before disconnections may resume.
Such requirements include, among other things, immediate communication to customers, notice periods for disconnections and
deferred payment arrangements. In the interim, the APSC is expected to continue to review all information relevant to a
discontinuation of the moratorium and is expected to issue an order on March 26, 2021, either confirming the lifting of the
moratorium on disconnections, or extending the moratorium.

OCC Proceedings

Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act Causes

Several rural electric cooperative electricity suppliers have filed complaints with the OCC alleging that OG&E has
violated the Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act. OG&E believes it is lawfully serving customers
specifically exempted from this act and has presented evidence and testimony to the OCC supporting its position. There have
been five complaint cases initiated at the OCC, and the OCC has issued decisions on each of them. The OCC ruled in favor of
the electric cooperatives in three of those cases and ruled in favor of OG&E in two of those cases. All five of those cases have
been appealed to the Oklahoma Supreme Court, where they have been made companion cases but will be individually briefed
and have individual final decisions.

If the Oklahoma Supreme Court ultimately were to find that some or all of the customers being served are not
exempted from the Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act, OG&E would have to evaluate the recoverability
of some plant investments made to serve these customers. The total amount of OG&E's plant investments made to serve the
customers in all five cases is approximately $28.0 million, of which $11.7 million applies to the three cases where the OCC
ruled in favor of the electric cooperatives. In addition to the evaluation of the recoverability of the investments, OG&E may
also be required to reimburse certified territory suppliers for an amount of lost revenue. The amount of such lost revenue would
depend on how the OCC calculates the revenue requirement but could range from approximately $14.5 million to $21.7 million
for all five cases, of which $1.4 million to $2.3 million would apply to the three cases where the OCC ruled in favor of the
electric cooperatives.

135

October 2020 Storm Examination

In October 2020, a major ice storm moved through OG&E's service territory which caused significant damage to the
system. On November 17, 2020, the Public Utility Division of the OCC initiated an examination and review of all distribution
utilities and cooperatives affected by the storm into the mitigation efforts, restoration processes and proposed improvements for
future related or similar events. Respondents are required to provide certain information related to the examination, and the
OCC may request additional relief as the examination proceeds. No procedural schedule has been proposed currently; however,
OG&E is responding to discovery requests.

February 2021 Extreme Cold Weather Event

In February 2021, OG&E's service territory experienced an unprecedented, prolonged, cold spell that resulted in record
winter peak demand for electricity and extreme natural gas and purchased power prices. OG&E's natural gas costs for the
month of February 2021 exceeded the total cost for all of 2020. Fuel and purchased power costs are recovered through OG&E's
Oklahoma and Arkansas fuel adjustment clauses. Estimates of the total regulatory asset for fuel and purchased power costs that
will be recorded are still under development but are expected to be in the range of $800.0 million to $1.0 billion. For
approximately 58,000 guaranteed flat bill customers, representing approximately three percent of load, OG&E may be unable to
seek recovery for the incremental fuel and purchased power costs that are included in customers' guaranteed flat bill agreements
which would result in a loss to OG&E. Full impacts cannot be determined until all settlements and invoices are received for this
period. While borrowing availability still exists within the Registrants' credit facilities, OGE Energy has secured a commitment
for $1.0 billion in additional short-term financing to provide additional liquidity to help cover these increased fuel and
purchased power costs. On February 24, 2021, OG&E submitted an application to the OCC outlining a two-step approach for
regulatory treatment for the fuel and purchased power costs associated with the unprecedented weather event. The steps
include: (i) an intra-year fuel clause increase to be effective April 1, 2021; and (ii) a request for regulatory asset treatment at
OG&E's weighted average cost of capital for the remaining fuel and purchased power costs. OG&E anticipates making a
similar filing with the APSC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of OGE Energy Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of capitalization of OGE Energy
Corp. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive
income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and
the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated
financial statements"). In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of Enable Midstream Partners, LP (Enable), a partnership in which the
Company has a 25.5% interest. In the consolidated financial statements, the Company's investment in Enable is stated at $374.3
million and $1,132.9 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and the Company's equity in the net income of
Enable is stated at $13.2 million in 2020, $91.8 million in 2019 and $124.4 million in 2018. Those statements were audited by
other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Enable, is
based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(2013 framework) and our report dated February 24, 2021, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to
error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included
evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that
was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that
are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The
communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken
as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit
matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

Description of
the Matter

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company conducts its electric utility
operations through Oklahoma Gas & Electric Company (OG&E). OG&E is a regulated utility subject to
accounting principles for rate-regulated activities. As such, certain incurred costs that would otherwise be
charged to expense are deferred as regulatory assets, based on the expected recovery from customers in future
rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce expense are deferred as
regulatory liabilities, based on the expected refund to customers in future rates. OG&E records items as
regulatory assets or liabilities if, based on regulatory orders or other available evidence, it is probable that the
costs or obligations will be included in amounts allowable for recovery or refund in future rates.

Auditing regulatory assets and liabilities is complex as it requires specialized knowledge of rate-regulated
activities and judgments as to matters that could affect the recording or updating of regulatory assets and
liabilities.

How We
Addressed the
Matter in Our
Audit

We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal
controls over the Company’s accounting for regulatory assets and liabilities, including, among others,
controls over management’s assessment of the likelihood of approval by regulators for new matters and
controls over the evaluation of filings with regulatory bodies on existing regulatory assets and liabilities,
including factors that may affect the timing or nature of recoverability.

We performed audit procedures that included, among others, reviewing evidence of correspondence with
regulatory bodies to test that the Company appropriately evaluated new information obtained from regulatory
rulings. For example, we assessed the recoverability, considering information obtained from regulatory

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

The Registrants maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by the Registrants in reports that they file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and
communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, allowing timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on an evaluation carried out under the
supervision and with the participation of the Registrants' management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial
officer, of the effectiveness of the Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have
concluded that the Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

No change in the Registrants' internal control over financial reporting has occurred during the most recently completed
fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrants' internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).

While remote work arrangements were temporarily implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the
Registrants believe there have been no material changes to the processes and procedures that impact financial reporting. The
Registrants continue to monitor potential
impacts of COVID-19 and plan accordingly to ensure the
effectiveness of the Registrants' internal controls over financial reporting and disclosures.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Registrants is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting. The Registrants' internal control systems were designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and
OGE Energy's Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal
control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be
effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

The Registrants' management assessed the effectiveness of their internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of
December 31, 2020, the Registrants' internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

The Registrants' independent auditors have issued an attestation report on the Registrants' internal control over

financial reporting. This report appears on the following page.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of OGE Energy Corp.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited OGE Energy Corp.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria
established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, OGE Energy Corp. (the Company) maintained, in all
material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of capitalization of OGE Energy Corp. as of December
31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and

schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) and our report dated February 24, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's Report
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material
weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

All Other Fees

There were no other fees billed by the principal independent accountants to OGE Energy in 2020 and 2019 for other

services.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Procedures

Rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to implement requirements of the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act of 2002 require public company audit committees to pre-approve audit and non-audit services. OGE Energy's Audit
Committee follows procedures pursuant to which audit, audit-related and tax services, and all permissible non-audit services are
pre-approved by category of service. The fees are budgeted, and actual fees versus the budget are monitored throughout the
year. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the principal independent accountants
for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, OGE Energy will obtain the specific
pre-approval of the Audit Committee before engaging the principal independent accountants. The procedures require the Audit
Committee to be informed of each service, and the procedures do not include any delegation of the Audit Committee's
responsibilities to management. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The
member to whom such authority is delegated will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next
scheduled meeting.

For 2020, 100 percent of the audit fees, audit-related fees and tax fees were pre-approved by the Audit Committee or

the Chairman of the Audit Committee pursuant to delegated authority.
