NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

OGE Energy Corp. (collectively, with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an energy and energy services provider offering physical delivery and management of both electricity and natural gas in the south central United States. The Company conducts these activities through two business segments, the Electric Utility and the Natural Gas Pipeline segments. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Electric Utility segment generates, transmits, distributes and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. Its operations are conducted through Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company (“OG&E”) and are subject to regulation by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (“OCC”), the Arkansas Public Service Commission (“APSC”) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). OG&E was incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory and is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma and its franchised service territory includes the Fort Smith, Arkansas area. OG&E sold its retail gas business in 1928 and is no longer engaged in the gas distribution business.

The operations of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment are conducted through Enogex Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Enogex”) and consist of three related businesses: (i) the transportation and storage of natural gas, (ii) the gathering and processing of natural gas and (iii) the marketing of natural gas. Enogex’s focus is to utilize its gathering, processing, transportation and storage capacity to execute physical, financial and service transactions to capture revenues across different commodities, locations or time periods. The vast majority of Enogex’s natural gas gathering, processing, transportation and storage assets are located in the major gas producing basins of Oklahoma. Through a 75 percent interest in the NOARK Pipeline System Limited Partnership, Enogex also owns a controlling interest in and operates the Ozark Gas Transmission System (“Ozark”), a FERC regulated interstate pipeline that extends from southeast Oklahoma through Arkansas to southeast Missouri. Enogex sold its interests in certain gas gathering and processing assets in Texas in the first quarter of 2003, which is reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations.

The Company allocates operating costs to its affiliates based on several factors. Operating costs directly related to specific affiliates are assigned to those affiliates. Where more than one affiliate benefits from certain expenditures, the costs are shared between those affiliates receiving the benefits. Operating costs incurred for the benefit of all affiliates are allocated among the affiliates, based primarily upon head-count, occupancy, usage or the “Distragas” method. The Distragas method is a three-factor formula that uses an equal weighting of payroll, operating income and assets. The Company believes this method provides a reasonable basis for allocating common expenses.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly present the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

Due to seasonal fluctuations and other factors, the operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004 or for any future period. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

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 the accounting principles prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 71, “Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation.” SFAS No. 71 provides that certain 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 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. Excluding recoverable take or pay gas charges, regulatory assets are being amortized and reflected in rates charged to customers over periods of up to 20 years.

OG&E initially records certain costs: (i) that are probable of future recovery as a deferred charge until such time as the cost is approved by a regulatory authority, then the cost is reclassified as a regulatory asset; and (ii) that are probable of future liability as a deferred credit until such time as the amount is approved by a regulatory authority, then the amount is reclassified as a regulatory liability.

The following table is a summary of OG&E’s regulatory assets and liabilities at:

(In millions)	June 30, 2004			December 31, 2003
Regulatory Assets
Recoverable take or pay gas charges	$	32	.5	$	32	.5
Income taxes recoverable from customers, net		31	.2		31	.6
Unamortized loss on reacquired debt		21	.5		22	.1
Fuel clause under recoveries		9	.3		4	.0
PowerSmith capacity payments		6	.1		-	--
January 2002 ice storm		1	.8		3	.6
Miscellaneous		0	.9		0	.4

Total Regulatory Assets	$	103	.3	$	94	.2

Regulatory Liabilities
Accrued removal obligations, net	$	122	.5	$	116	.3
Fuel clause over recoveries		6	.4		32	.4
Estimated refund on FERC fuel		1	.0		1	.0

Total Regulatory Liabilities	$	129	.9	$	149	.7

Recoverable take or pay gas charges represent outstanding prepayments of gas related to a reserve for litigation that OG&E is currently involved in which OG&E expects full recovery through its regulatory approved fuel adjustment clause.

Income taxes recoverable from customers represent income tax benefits previously used to reduce OG&E’s revenues. These amounts are being recovered in rates as the temporary differences that generated the income tax benefit turn around. The provisions of SFAS No. 71 allowed the Company to treat these amounts as regulatory assets and liabilities and they are being amortized over the estimated remaining life of the assets to which they relate. The income tax related regulatory assets and liabilities are netted on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line item, “Income Taxes Recoverable from Customers, Net.”

Fuel clause under recoveries are generated from under recoveries from OG&E’s customers when OG&E’s cost of fuel exceeds the amount billed to its customers. Fuel clause over recoveries are generated from over recoveries from OG&E’s customers when the amount billed to its customers exceeds OG&E’s cost of fuel. The Company’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 cost in periods of rising prices above the baseline charge for fuel and over recovers fuel cost when prices decline below the baseline charge for fuel. Provisions in the fuel clauses allow the Company to amortize under or over recovery.

PowerSmith Cogeneration Project, L.P. (“PowerSmith”) capacity payments relate to customer savings of approximately $1.0 million per month that began in January 2004 to reflect the expiration of the PowerSmith contract in August 2004. These customer savings relate to the period from January to August 2004. This regulatory asset will be recovered from customers from September to December 2004 pursuant to filed tariffs.

Accrued removal obligations represent asset retirement costs previously recovered from ratepayers for other than legal obligations. In accordance with SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” the Company was required to reclassify its accrued removal obligations, which had previously been recorded as a liability in Accumulated Depreciation, to a regulatory liability.

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 reduced or written off, as appropriate. If the Company were required to discontinue the application of SFAS No. 71 for some or all of its operations, it could result in writing off the related regulatory assets; the financial effects of which could be significant.

Income Taxes

The Company files consolidated income tax returns. Income taxes are allocated to each affiliate based on its separate taxable income or loss. Federal investment tax credits on electric utility property have been deferred and are being amortized to income over the life of the related property. Amortization of the federal investment tax credits was approximately $1.3 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and was approximately $2.6 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and are recorded as income tax benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, the Company recorded Oklahoma state tax credits of approximately $0.5 million and $4.2 million which are recorded as income tax benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which uses an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period.

Stock-Based Compensation

Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the Company has elected to continue using the intrinsic value method of accounting for its stock-based employee compensation plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Accordingly, the Company has not recognized compensation expense for its stock-based awards to employees.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” SFAS No. 148 amended the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The

following table reflects pro forma net income and income per average common share had the Company elected to adopt the fair value based method of SFAS No. 123:

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the 2004 presentation.

2. Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on certain issues covered in EITF Issue No. 02-3, “Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities.” One consensus of EITF 02-3 was to rescind EITF Issue No. 98-10, “Accounting for Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities,” as amended, effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2002. Effective October 25, 2002, all new contracts and physical inventories that would have been accounted for under EITF 98-10 were no longer marked to market through earnings unless the contracts met the definition of a derivative under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended. Application of the consensus for energy contracts and inventory that existed on or before October 25, 2002 that remain in effect at the date this consensus was initially applied were recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes.” As a result, only energy contracts that meet the definition of a derivative in SFAS No. 133 are carried at fair value. The Company adopted this consensus effective January 1, 2003 resulting in approximately a $9.6 million pre-tax loss ($5.9 million after tax). The loss, which was

accounted for as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle during the first quarter of 2003, was primarily related to natural gas held in storage for trading purposes. This natural gas held in storage was sold during the first quarter of 2003 resulting in an increase in the gross margin on revenues (“gross margin”) in excess of the cumulative effect loss described above.

3. Price Risk Management Assets and Liabilities

Non-Trading Activities

The Company periodically utilizes derivative contracts to manage the exposure of its assets to unfavorable changes in commodity prices, as well as to reduce exposure to adverse interest rate fluctuations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company’s use of non-trading price risk management instruments involved the use of commodity price and interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involve the exchange of fixed price or rate payments in exchange for floating price or rate payments over the life of the instrument without an exchange of the underlying principal amount.

In accordance with SFAS No. 133, the Company recognizes all of its derivative instruments as Price Risk Management assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with such amounts classified as current or long-term based on their anticipated settlement. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and resulting designation. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the same line item associated with the hedged item in current earnings during the period of the change in fair values. For derivatives that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and recognized into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is recognized currently in earnings. Hedge effectiveness is measured at least quarterly based on the relative changes in fair value between the derivative contract and hedged item during the period of hedge designation. Forecasted transactions designated as the hedged item in a cash flow hedge are regularly evaluated to assess whether they continue to be probable of occurring. If the forecasted transactions are no longer probable of occurring, hedge accounting will cease on a prospective basis and all future changes in the fair value of the derivative will be recognized directly in earnings. Any amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income will remain in other comprehensive income until such time the forecasted transaction is deemed probable not to occur. The Company’s interest rate swap agreements have been designated as fair value and cash flow hedges. These fair value hedges qualified for the shortcut method prescribed by SFAS No. 133. Under the shortcut method, the Company assumes that the hedged item’s change in fair value is exactly as much as the derivative’s change in fair value. The Company measures ineffectiveness of these cash flow hedges under the hypothetical derivative method prescribed by SFAS No. 133. Under the hypothetical derivative method, the Company has designated that the critical terms of the hedging instrument are the same as the critical terms of the hypothetical derivative used to value

the forecasted transaction, and, as a result, no ineffectiveness is expected. See Notes 4 and 11 for a description of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.

Trading Activities

The Company, through its subsidiary, OGE Energy Resources, Inc. (“OERI”), engages in energy trading activities primarily related to the purchase and sale of natural gas. Contracts utilized in these activities generally include forward swap contracts as well as over-the-counter and exchange traded futures and options. Energy trading activities are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 133 and EITF 02-3. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, financial instruments that qualify as derivatives are reflected at fair value with the resulting unrealized gains and losses recorded as Price Risk Management assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, classified as current or long-term based on their anticipated settlement. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in the market value of open contracts are included in Natural Gas Pipeline Operating Revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Energy trading contracts resulting in delivery of a commodity that meet the requirements of EITF Issue No. 99-19, “Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal or Net as an Agent,” are included as sales or purchases in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income depending on whether the contract relates to the sale or purchase of the commodity.

4. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The components of total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)	2004			2003			2004			2003
Net income	$	39	.0	$	32	.2	$	49	.2	$	31	.9
Other comprehensive loss, net of tax:
Deferred hedging losses		(0	.2)		(0	.5)		(0	.2)		(0	.3)
Reversal of unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities		-	--		-	--		(0	.4)		-	--

Total comprehensive income	$	38	.8	$	31	.7	$	48	.6	$	31	.6

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 are as follows:

(In millions)	June 30, 2004			December 31, 2003
Minimum pension liability adjustment, net of tax	$	(59	.7)	$	(59	.7)
Deferred hedging gains, net of tax		0	.7		0	.9
Unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities, net of tax		-	--		0	.4

Total accumulated other comprehensive loss	$	(59	.0)	$	(58	.4)

Accumulated other comprehensive loss at both June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 included approximately a $59.7 million after tax loss ($97.4 million pre-tax) related to a minimum pension liability adjustment based on a review of the funded status of the Company’s

pension plan by the Company’s actuarial consultants as of December 31, 2003. Any increases or decreases in the minimum pension liability will be reflected in Other Comprehensive Income or Loss in the fourth quarter.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company entered into three separate interest rate swap agreements, effective April 16, 2004, April 21, 2004 and May 17, 2004, respectively, to hedge approximately $20.0 million, $30.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, of future interest payments of long-term debt expected to be issued later this year related to the planned redemption of $200.0 million of 8.375 percent trust preferred securities of OGE Energy Capital Trust I, a wholly-owned financing trust of the Company. These interest rate swap agreements mature on October 15, 2014. The objective of these interest rate swaps was to protect against the volatility of interest rates affecting future interest payments. These interest rate swaps qualified as cash flow hedges under SFAS No. 133 and met all of the requirements for a determination that there was no ineffective portion as allowed by the hypothetical derivative method under SFAS No. 133.

At June 30, 2004, the fair values for these interest rate swaps was approximately $0.2 million and are classified as Current Assets – Price Risk Management in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A corresponding net increase of approximately $0.2 million was reflected in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income at June 30, 2004 as these cash flow hedges were effective at June 30, 2004.

During July 2004, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement, effective July 16, 2004, to hedge approximately $10.0 million of future interest payments of long-term debt expected to be issued later this year related to the planned redemption of $200.0 million of 8.375 percent trust preferred securities of OGE Energy Capital Trust I. This interest rate swap agreement matures on October 15, 2014. The objective of this interest rate swap was to protect against the volatility of interest rates affecting future interest payments. This interest rate swap qualified as a cash flow hedge under SFAS No. 133 and met all of the requirements for a determination that there was no ineffective portion as allowed by the hypothetical derivative method under SFAS No. 133.

5. Enogex – Discontinued Operations

Enogex sold its interests in the NuStar Joint Venture (“NuStar”) for approximately $37.0 million in February 2003. The Company recognized approximately a $1.4 million after tax gain related to the sale of these assets in the first quarter of 2003. The final accounting for the NuStar sale was completed in the third quarter of 2003 which resulted in an additional charge of approximately $0.2 million after tax which was recorded in the third quarter of 2003. The final accounting is subject to approval by all parties to the sale of the joint venture interest. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company recognized approximately $0.4 million after tax from funds received related to an overpayment for natural gas purchases in a prior period.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company reflect NuStar, which was part of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment, as discontinued operations. Accordingly, revenues, costs and expenses and cash flows of NuStar have been excluded from the respective captions in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and have been reported as “Income

from Discontinued Operations” and “Net Cash Provided from Discontinued Operations.” There were no outstanding balances related to NuStar on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Summarized financial information for the discontinued operations is as follows:

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME DATA

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)		2004		2003		2004			2003

Operating revenues from discontinued operations	$	---	$	---	$	0	.7	$	7	.8

Income from discontinued operations before taxes		---		---		0	.7		2	.2

6. Asset Disposals

Enogex sold approximately 29 miles of transmission lines of the Ozark pipeline, in which an Enogex subsidiary owns a 75 percent interest, located in Pittsburg and Latimer counties in Oklahoma for approximately $10.0 million in January 2003. The Company recognized approximately a $5.3 million pre-tax gain and approximately $1.1 million in minority interest expense in the first quarter of 2003 related to the sale of these assets, which is recorded in Other Income and Other Expense, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. These assets were part of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment.

OG&E sold land near its principal executive offices for approximately $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2004. OG&E recognized approximately a $0.3 million pre-tax gain related to the sale of this asset, which is recorded in Other Income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. This asset was part of the Electric Utility segment.

7. Impairment of Assets

During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment loss of approximately $48.3 million in the Natural Gas Pipeline segment which related to Enogex natural gas processing and compression assets. In the fourth quarter of 2003, as a result of an ongoing initiative to improve asset utilization in the Natural Gas Pipeline segment, the Company concluded that certain idle Enogex natural gas compression assets may no longer be required to meet the Company’s future business needs. As a result, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment loss of approximately $9.2 million related to these natural gas compression assets. The impairments resulted from plans to dispose of these assets at prices below the carrying amount. The fair value of these assets was determined based on third-party evaluations, prices for similar assets, historical data and projected cash flows. During the three months ended June 30, 2004, the Company sold certain of its compression and processing assets for approximately $1.9 million and recognized approximately a $1.0 million after tax gain related to the sale of these assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company sold certain of its compression and processing assets for approximately $4.7 million and recognized approximately a $1.7 million after tax gain related to the sale of these assets. The carrying amount of the remaining assets held for sale was approximately $8.3 million and $11.9 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. The Company continues to actively market these assets and plans to sell or otherwise dispose of these assets by the end of 2004.

As previously reported, the Company recognized an impairment loss related to certain idle Enogex natural gas compression assets in 2002. The Company has developed a plan relating to the disposition of those assets and during the third quarter of 2004, the Company entered into a joint venture arrangement with a third party and contributed some of its impaired compression assets (with a carrying amount of approximately $4.3 million) to the joint venture. The carrying amount of $4.3 million is part of the $8.3 million carrying amount of the remaining assets held for sale at June 30, 2004 discussed above. The near term objective of the joint venture is to derive value from the assets by renting the natural gas compressors, while the long term objective is to sell such assets or the joint venture. The Company has created a wholly-owned limited liability company to act as the participating entity in the joint venture. This limited liability company is expected to hold a majority ownership in the joint venture, although the actual ownership percentages may fluctuate based on the relative capital contributions of the Company and the third party member. The third party will act as the manager and maintain the daily operations of the joint venture. These assets were part of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment.

During the second quarter of 2003, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment loss of $1.0 million in Other Operations related to the Company’s aircraft. The impairment resulted from plans to dispose of the aircraft at a price below the carrying amount. The fair value of the aircraft was determined based on a third-party evaluation. The closing on the sale was completed in August 2003 and the Company recognized approximately a $0.1 million pre-tax loss related to the sale of the aircraft in the third quarter of 2003. The aircraft was part of Other Operations.

8. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

The following table discloses information about investing and financing activities that affect recognized assets and liabilities but which do not result in cash receipts or payments.

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)		2004			2003

NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Change in fair value of long-term debt due to interest rate swaps	$	(6	.0)	$	7	.2
Issuance of common stock		-	--		5	.7

9. Common Stock

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, there were 18,100 shares of new common stock and 257,224 shares of new common stock issued pursuant to the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan, which related to exercised stock options.

10. Earnings Per Share

Outstanding shares for purposes of basic and diluted earnings per average common share were calculated as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)	2004		2003		2004		2003
Average Common Shares Outstanding
Basic average common shares outstanding	87	.6	79	.2	87	.6	78	.9
Effect of dilutive securities:
Employee stock options and unvested stock grants	0	.3	0	.1	0	.2	0	.2
Contingently issuable shares (performance units)	0	.3	0	.1	0	.3	0	.1

Diluted average common shares outstanding	88	.2	79	.4	88	.1	79	.2

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, approximately 0.7 million shares each related to outstanding employee stock options were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per average common share because the effect of including those shares is anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the stock options exceeded the average common stock market price during the respective period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, approximately 1.9 million shares and 2.1 million shares related to outstanding employee stock options were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per average common share because the effect of including those shares is anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the stock options exceeded the average common stock market price during the respective period.

11. Long-Term Debt

At June 30, 2004, the Company is in compliance with all of its debt agreements.

Long-Term Debt with Optional Redemption Provisions

OG&E’s 6.500 percent Senior Notes (“Senior Notes”) were repayable on July 15, 2004, at the option of the holders, at 100 percent of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest to July 15, 2004. Only holders who submitted requests for repayment between May 15, 2004 and June 15, 2004 were entitled to such repayments. OG&E and the Senior Note Trustee received no such requests for repayment of the Senior Notes.

OG&E has three series of variable rate industrial authority bonds (the “Bonds”) with optional redemption provisions which allow the holders to request repayment of the Bonds at various dates prior to the maturity. The Bonds, which are redeemable at the option of the holder during the next 12 months, are as follows:

SERIES		DATE DUE		AMOUNT

Variable %		Garfield Industrial Authority, January 1, 2025	$	47	.0
Variable %		Muskogee Industrial Authority, January 1, 2025		32	.4
Variable %		Muskogee Industrial Authority, June 1, 2027		56	.0

	Tot	al (redeemable during next 12 months)	$	135	.4

All of these Bonds are subject to tender at the option 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. A third party remarketing agent for the Bonds will attempt to remarket any Bonds tendered for purchase. If the remarketing agent is unable to remarket any such Bonds, the Company is obligated to repurchase such unremarketed Bonds. The Company has sufficient liquidity to meet these obligations.

Early Retirement of Long-Term Debt

In 1998, Enogex issued a note of approximately $5.7 million payable to an unaffiliated former partial interest owner of the NOARK Pipeline System Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of Enogex Arkansas Pipeline Corporation, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enogex. The note had a maturity date of July 1, 2020 and an interest rate of 7.00 percent. Principal and interest payments of approximately $0.8 million were due annually beginning July 1, 2004. On July 1, 2004, Enogex made the initial $0.8 million payment. On July 14, 2004, Enogex made a payment of approximately $7.8 million to repay the outstanding note balance and satisfy its remaining obligations related to this note. Enogex expects to record a pre-tax gain of approximately $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2004 related to this transaction.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

Fair Value Hedges

At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had three outstanding interest rate swap agreements: (i) OG&E entered into an interest rate swap agreement, effective March 30, 2001, to convert $110.0 million of 7.30 percent fixed rate debt due October 15, 2025, to a variable rate based on the three month London InterBank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”) and (ii) Enogex entered into two separate interest rate swap agreements, effective July 15, 2002 and October 24, 2002, to convert $100.0 million of 8.125 percent fixed rate debt due January 15, 2010, to a variable rate based on the six month LIBOR in arrears. The objective of these interest rate swaps was to achieve a lower cost of debt and to raise the percentage of total corporate long-term floating rate debt to reflect a level more in line with industry standards. These interest rate swaps qualified as fair value hedges under SFAS No. 133 and met all of the requirements for a determination that there was no ineffective portion as allowed by the shortcut method under SFAS No. 133.

At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the fair values pursuant to OG&E’s interest rate swap were approximately $2.7 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and are classified as Deferred Charges and Other Assets – Price Risk Management in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A corresponding net increase of approximately $2.7 million and $4.0 million was reflected in Long-Term Debt at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, as this fair value hedge was effective at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

At June 30, 2004, the fair values pursuant to Enogex’s interest rate swaps were approximately $1.3 million and are classified as Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities – Price Risk Management in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A corresponding net decrease of approximately $1.3 million was reflected in Long-Term Debt at June 30, 2004 as these fair value hedges were effective at June 30, 2004. At December 31, 2003, the fair values pursuant to Enogex’s interest rate swaps were approximately $3.6 million and are classified as Deferred Charges and Other Assets – Price Risk Management in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A corresponding net increase of approximately $3.6 million was reflected in Long-Term Debt at December 31, 2003 as these fair value hedges were effective at December 31, 2003.

Cash Flow Hedges

12. Short-Term Debt

The short-term debt balance was approximately $202.5 million at December 31, 2003 primarily due to the planned acquisition of the McClain Plant discussed in Note 16. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2004. Due to a delay in the completion of the McClain Plant acquisition, the Company used short-term investments and proceeds received from the sale of natural gas inventory by Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to reduce the outstanding commercial paper balance.

The following table shows the Company’s lines of credit in place and available cash at June 30, 2004. Short-term borrowings are expected to consist of a combination of bank borrowings and commercial paper.

Lines of Credit and Available Cash (In millions)
Entity	Amount Available			Amount Outstanding			Maturity
OGE Energy Corp. (A)	$	15	.0	$	-	--	April 6, 2005
OG&E		100	.0		-	--	December 9, 2004
OGE Energy Corp. (A)		300	.0		-	--	December 9, 2004
		415	.0		-	--
Cash		44	.7		N	/A	N/A

Total	$	459	.7	$	-	--

(A) The lines of credit at OGE Energy Corp. are used to back up the Company’s commercial paper borrowings. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2004. In April 2004, the Company renewed its $15.0 million credit facility, shown in the table above, which matures April 6, 2005. Also, in June 2004, OG&E extended the maturity date of its $100.0 million credit facility, shown in the table above, to December 9, 2004.

The Company’s and OG&E’s ability to access the commercial paper market could be adversely impacted by a commercial paper ratings downgrade. Their respective lines of credit contain rating grids that require annual fees and borrowing rates to increase if they suffer an adverse ratings impact. The impact of additional downgrades would result in an increase in the cost of short-term borrowings of approximately five to 20 basis points, but would not result in any defaults or accelerations as a result of the rating changes.

Unlike the Company and Enogex, 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 $400 million in short-term borrowings at any one time.

13. Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefit Plans

In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (Revised), “Employer’s Disclosures about Pension and Postretirement Benefits, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106,” which revised employers’ disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefits. This Statement requires additional disclosures to those in the original SFAS No. 132, “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits,” for defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans which include disclosures describing the components of net periodic benefit cost recognized during interim periods.

A detail of the net periodic benefit cost related to the Company’s pension plan and postretirement benefit plans included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is as follows:

Net Periodic Benefit Cost

Net periodic benefit cost	$	4	.5	$	3	.1	$	9	.1	$	8	.3

Pension Plan Funding

The Company previously disclosed in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 that it expected to contribute approximately $56.0 million to its pension plan in 2004. The Company presently anticipates contributing an additional $13.0 million to its pension plan during 2004, for a total contribution of approximately $69.0 million in 2004. After the benefit liability was remeasured as of January 1, 2004, the Company decided to make the additional contribution to ensure the pension plan maintains an adequate funded status. The Company funded approximately $46.0 million to its pension plan during the second quarter of 2004 and also expects to make contributions in the third quarter of 2004. The expected contributions to the pension plan, anticipated to be in the form of cash, are discretionary contributions and are not required to satisfy the minimum regulatory funding requirement specified by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003

On December 8, 2003, President Bush signed into law the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Act”). The Act expanded Medicare to include,

for the first time, coverage for prescription drugs. Due to various uncertainties related to the Company’s response to this legislation in relation to its postretirement medical plan and the appropriate accounting methodology for this event, the Company elected to defer financial recognition of this legislation until the FASB issued final accounting guidance. This deferral election was permitted under FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-1, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003.” In May 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003,” which supersedes FAS 106-1. FAS 106-2 provides guidance on the accounting for the effects of the Act for employers that sponsor postretirement heath care plans that provide prescription drug benefits. FAS 106-2 also requires those employers to provide certain disclosures regarding the effect of the federal subsidy provided by the Act. For employers who elected to defer financial recognition, FAS 106-2 provides two alternative methods of adoption which include a retroactive application to the date of the Act’s enactment or a prospective application as of the date of adoption. For employers who elected not to defer financial recognition, FAS 106-2 requires these employers to recognize a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with APB Opinion No. 20. Adoption of FAS 106-2 is required for financial statements issued for periods beginning after June 15, 2004. The Company will adopt this new standard effective July 1, 2004 with retroactive application to the date of the Act’s enactment. Management expects that the savings to the Company’s postretirement medical plan resulting from the Act will reduce the Company’s costs for its postretirement medical plan by approximately $2.5 million annually.

14. Report of Business Segments

The Company’s Electric Utility operations are conducted through OG&E, a regulated utility engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electric energy. The Company’s Natural Gas Pipeline operations are conducted through Enogex. Enogex is engaged in the transportation and storage of natural gas, the gathering and processing of natural gas and the marketing of natural gas. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, Other Operations primarily includes unallocated corporate expenses, interest expense on the trust preferred securities and interest expense on commercial paper. As a result of the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51,” on December 31, 2003, and the resulting deconsolidation of the trust preferred securities, Other Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily includes unallocated corporate expenses, interest expense to unconsolidated affiliate and interest expense on commercial paper. Intersegment revenues are recorded at prices comparable to those of unaffiliated customers and are affected by regulatory considerations. The following tables are a summary of the results of the Company’s business segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Except as set forth below and in Note 16, the circumstances set forth in Note 17 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and in Note 15 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of any material commitments and contingent liabilities.

Natural Gas Storage Facility Agreement with Central Oklahoma Oil and Gas Corp.

As reported in Note 17 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, Enogex, Central Oklahoma Oil and Gas Corp. and Natural Gas Storage Corporation have been involved in legal proceedings relating to a gas storage agreement and associated agreements. The parties participated in the arbitration in May 2004 and the arbitration panel rendered a decision in the Company’s favor for approximately $5.0 million on July 15, 2004. The Company plans to institute proceedings with the District Court of Oklahoma County to have the arbitration award confirmed and entered as a judgment of the Court. For additional information regarding this dispute, see Note 17 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Farmland Industries

As earlier reported, Farmland Industries, Inc. (“Farmland”) voluntarily filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection from creditors on May 31, 2002. Enogex filed its proof of claim on January 7, 2003 for approximately $5.4 million. In April 2003, Enogex negotiated a settlement and received approximately $1.9 million in May 2003. As a general unsecured creditor of Farmland and pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement referenced above, Enogex is entitled to an additional payment of approximately $0.8 million.

Enogex received a letter from Farmland dated May 17, 2004, wherein Farmland sought the refund and return of payments made by Farmland to Enogex during the 90 days preceding Farmland’s bankruptcy filing, totaling approximately $4.7 million. Enogex responded to Farmland’s letter on June 17, 2004, and on July 19, 2004, Farmland filed a dismissal of its preference claim against Enogex. On July 8, 2004, Enogex received a distribution check from Farmland for approximately $0.5 million. The remainder of the settlement amount (approximately $0.3 million) is expected to be paid in the near future.

Other

generally accepted in the United States, an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently pending or threatened lawsuits, claims and contingencies will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. This assessment of currently pending or threatened lawsuits is subject to change.

16. Rate Matters and Regulation

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 wholesale electric tariffs, short-term borrowing authorization and accounting practices are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC. The Secretary of the Department of Energy has jurisdiction over some of OG&E’s facilities and operations.

Recent Regulatory Matters

2002 Settlement Agreement

On October 11, 2002, OG&E, the OCC Staff, the Oklahoma Attorney General and other interested parties agreed to settle OG&E’s rate case. The administrative law judge subsequently recommended approval of the agreed-upon settlement (“Settlement Agreement”) and on November 22, 2002, the OCC signed a rate order containing the provisions of the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Agreement provides for, among other items: (i) a $25.0 million annual reduction in the electric rates of OG&E’s Oklahoma customers which went into effect January 6, 2003; (ii) recovery by OG&E, through rate base, of the capital expenditures associated with the January 2002 ice storm; (iii) OG&E to acquire electric generation of not less than 400 megawatts (“MW”) (“New Generation”) to be integrated into OG&E’s generation system; and (iv) recovery by OG&E, over three years, of the $5.4 million in deferred operating costs, associated with the January 2002 ice storm, through OG&E’s rider for sales to other utilities and power marketers (“off-system sales”). Previously, OG&E had a 50/50 sharing mechanism in Oklahoma for any off-system sales. The Settlement Agreement provided that the first $1.8 million in annual net profits from OG&E’s off-system sales will go to OG&E, the next $3.6 million in annual net profits from off-system sales will go to OG&E’s Oklahoma customers, and any net profits of off-system sales in excess of these amounts will be credited in each sales year with 80 percent to OG&E’s Oklahoma customers and the remaining 20 percent to OG&E. If any of the $5.4 million is not recovered at the end of the three years, the OCC will authorize the recovery of any remaining costs.

OCC Order Confirming Savings

520 MW NRG McClain Station (the “McClain Plant”), but due to a delay at the FERC, the acquisition was not completed by December 31, 2003. In the interim, OG&E entered into a power purchase agreement with the McClain Plant that delivered the savings guaranteed to OG&E’s customers. OG&E requested that the OCC confirm that the steps it has taken, including the power purchase agreement, were satisfying the customer savings obligation under the Settlement Agreement and that OG&E would not be required to begin crediting its customers. On April 28, 2004, the OCC issued an order confirming that OG&E was delivering savings to its customers as required under the Settlement Agreement. The order removed any uncertainty over whether OG&E had to reduce its rates, effective January 1, 2004, while it awaited action by the FERC on its application to purchase the McClain Plant. A party to the OCC proceeding has appealed the OCC’s order to the Oklahoma Supreme Court. OG&E currently believes that the appeal is without merit.

Recent Acquisition of Power Plant

As part of the 2002 Settlement Agreement with the OCC, OG&E undertook to acquire New Generation of not less than 400 MWs. The acquisition of a 77 percent interest in the McClain Plant on July 9, 2004, as discussed below in more detail, constitutes an acquisition of such New Generation. OG&E expects this New Generation, including the effects of an interim power purchase agreement OG&E had with NRG McClain LLC while OG&E was awaiting regulatory approval to complete the acquisition, will provide savings, over a three-year period, in excess of $75.0 million to its Oklahoma customers. These savings will be derived from: (i) the avoidance of purchase power contracts otherwise needed; (ii) replacing an above market cogeneration contract with PowerSmith when it can be terminated at the end of August 2004 with a more economic contract with PowerSmith; and (iii) fuel savings associated with operating efficiencies of the new plant. These savings, while providing real savings to Oklahoma customers, are not expected to affect OG&E’s profitability because its rates are not expected to be reduced to accomplish these savings. In the event OG&E is unable to demonstrate at least $75.0 million in savings to its customers during this 36-month period, OG&E will be required to credit its Oklahoma customers any unrealized savings below $75.0 million as determined at the end of the 36-month period, which shall be no later than December 31, 2006.

On August 18, 2003, OG&E signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire NRG McClain LLC’s 77 percent interest in the McClain Plant. The McClain Plant includes natural gas-fired combined cycle combustion turbine units and is located near Newcastle, Oklahoma in McClain County, Oklahoma. The McClain Plant began operating in 2001. The owner of the remaining 23 percent in the McClain Plant is the Oklahoma Municipal Power Authority (“OMPA”).

OG&E completed the acquisition of the McClain Plant on July 9, 2004. The purchase price for the interest in the McClain Plant was approximately $160.0 million. The closing was subject to customary conditions including receipt of certain regulatory approvals. Because NRG McClain LLC had filed for bankruptcy protection, the acquisition was subject to approval by the bankruptcy court. As part of the bankruptcy approval process, NRG McClain LLC’s interest in the plant was subject to an auction process and on October 28, 2003, the bankruptcy court approved the sale of NRG McClain LLC’s interest in the plant to OG&E.

The final approval OG&E had been waiting for was the approval from the FERC. On July 2, 2004, the FERC authorized OG&E to acquire the McClain Plant. The FERC’s approval was based on an offer of settlement OG&E filed in a proceeding on March 8, 2004. Under the offer of settlement, OG&E proposed, among other things, to install certain new transmission facilities and to hire an independent market monitor to oversee OG&E’s activity for a limited period. Two other parties, InterGen Services, Inc. and AES Shady Point, opposed OG&E’s offer of settlement and filed competing settlement offers. In the July 2, 2004 order, the FERC (i) approved OG&E’s offer of settlement subject to conditions; (ii) rejected the competing offers of settlement; and (iii) approved OG&E’s acquisition of the McClain Plant. Requests for rehearing of the FERC’s July 2, 2004 order were due on or before August 2, 2004. One such rehearing request was filed. The outcome of that request for rehearing cannot be determined at this time.

With the acquisition complete, OG&E will operate the plant in accordance with a joint ownership and operating agreement with the OMPA. Under this agreement, OG&E will operate the facility, and OG&E and the OMPA will be entitled to the net available output of the plant based on their respective ownership percentages. All fixed and variable costs, except fuel and gas transportation costs, will be shared in proportion to the respective ownership interests. Fuel and gas transportation costs will be paid in accordance with each individual owner’s respective transportation contract and consumption. OG&E expects to utilize its portion of the output, 400 MWs, to serve its native load. As a result, OG&E expects to file with the OCC a request to increase its rates to its Oklahoma customers to recover, among other things, its investment in, and the operating expenses of, the McClain Plant no later than 12 months following the acquisition and initial operation of New Generation. The timing of such request is uncertain. As provided in the Settlement Agreement, until OG&E seeks and obtains approval of a request to increase base rates to recover, among other things, the investment in the plant, OG&E will have the right to accrue a regulatory asset, for a period not to exceed 12 months subsequent to the acquisition, consisting of the non-fuel operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation, cost of debt associated with the investment and ad valorem taxes. If the OCC were to approve OG&E’s request, all prudently incurred costs accrued through the regulatory asset within the 12-month period would be included in OG&E’s prospective cost of service and would be recovered over a period to be determined by the OCC.

OG&E funded the McClain Plant acquisition with short-term borrowings from the Company. OG&E expects to issue long-term debt to permanently finance the McClain Plant acquisition. Also, the Company expects to make a capital contribution to OG&E of approximately $153.0 million in August.

FERC Section 311 Rate Case

In December 2001, Enogex made its filing at the FERC under Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act to establish rates and a default processing fee and to address various other issues for the combined Enogex and Transok L.L.C. pipeline systems. In May 2003, the FERC accepted the stipulation and settlement agreement and entered an order modifying Enogex’s Statement of Operating Conditions (“SOC”). The settlement included a fee to be assessed under certain market conditions to process customer gas gathered behind processing plants so that it meets the heating value standards of natural gas transmission pipelines (“default processing fee”). This default processing fee, which reduces Enogex’s exposure to keep whole processing

arrangements, is implemented in the event the natural gas liquids revenue less the associated fuel and shrinkage costs is negative. The settlement also approved a monthly low flow meter charge of $200 (offset in any month by the transportation revenues generated by gas through the meter). Pursuant to Enogex’s SOC, if Enogex’s annual processing gross margin exceeds a specified threshold, Enogex is required to record a default processing fee refund obligation in an amount equal to the lesser of the default processing fees or the amount of the processing margin in excess of the specified threshold.

During the third and fourth quarters of 2003, the Company established approximately a $4.9 million reserve to cover such refund obligations. During April 2004, the Company refunded its default processing fee refund obligation under the SOC to the applicable customers. There were no default processing fees billed to customers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company billed default processing fees of approximately $6.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively. Based on the forecasted processing gross margin for 2004, any default processing fees charged to customers will be recorded as deferred revenue until it becomes probable that the 2004 gross margin threshold in the SOC will not be exceeded. The accounting for default processing fees is not expected to impact full-year earnings, but could affect the timing of those earnings. Also, during the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million of low flow meter charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $0.3 million and $0.5 million of low flow meter charges.

Pending Regulatory Matters

Currently, OG&E has three significant matters pending at the OCC: (i) a motion by PowerSmith seeking to compel OG&E to continue purchasing power from a qualified cogeneration facility; (ii) a review of the process completed by OG&E in its selection of gas transportation and storage services to meet its system operating needs; and (iii) security investments on OG&E’s system. These matters, as well as several other pending matters, are discussed below.

Contract with PowerSmith

PowerSmith has filed an application with the OCC seeking to compel OG&E to continue purchasing power from PowerSmith’s qualified cogeneration facility under the Public Utility Regulatory Policy Act of 1978 at a price that would include an avoided capacity charge equal to the lesser of (i) the rate currently specified in the power purchase agreement between OG&E and PowerSmith or (ii) the avoided cost of the McClain Plant. On June 7, 2004, OG&E and PowerSmith signed a 15-year power sales agreement under which OG&E will contract to purchase electric power from PowerSmith. The terms of the agreement are subject to approval by the OCC. A condition to the power sales agreement becoming effective is PowerSmith completing a long-term steam sales agreement with Dayton Tire, which PowerSmith appears to be in the process of doing. A hearing on OG&E and PowerSmith’s request for OCC approval of the contract was initially scheduled to begin on July 8 before an administrative law judge but has been delayed until August 3. The parties have agreed that the August 3 hearing on the contract

will dispose of the application filed by PowerSmith that is described above. OG&E’s ability to meet its guarantee of customer savings of at least $75 million over three years is not expected to be materially affected by this new agreement to purchase electric power from PowerSmith.

Gas Transportation and Storage Agreement

As part of the Settlement Agreement, OG&E also agreed to consider competitive bidding for gas transportation service to its natural gas-fired generation facilities pursuant to the terms set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The prescribed bidding process detailed in the Settlement Agreement provided that each generation facility bid separately for the services required. OG&E believes that in order for it to achieve maximum coal generation, which delivers the lowest cost energy to its customers, and ensure reliable electric service, it must have integrated, firm no-notice load following service for both gas transportation and gas storage. This type of service is required to satisfy the daily swings in customer demand placed on OG&E’s system and still permit natural gas units to not impede coal energy production. OG&E also believes that gas storage is an integral part of providing gas supply to OG&E’s generation facilities. Accordingly, OG&E evaluated its competitive bid options in light of these circumstances. OG&E’s evaluation clearly demonstrates that the Enogex integrated gas system provides superior integrated, firm no-notice load following service to OG&E that is not available from other companies serving the OG&E marketplace. On April 29, 2003, OG&E filed an application with the OCC in which OG&E advised the OCC that, after careful consideration, competitive bidding for gas transportation was rejected in favor of a new intrastate integrated, firm no-notice load following gas transportation and storage services agreement with Enogex. This seven-year agreement provides for gas transportation and storage services for each of OG&E’s natural gas-fired generation facilities at an annual cost of approximately $46.8 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, OG&E paid Enogex approximately $12.3 million and $11.2 million, respectively, for gas transportation and storage services. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, OG&E paid Enogex approximately $24.1 million and $21.2 million, respectively, for gas transportation and storage services. Based upon requests for information from intervenors, OG&E has requested from Enogex and Enogex retained a “cost of service” consultant to assist in the preparation of testimony related to this case. On January 30, 2004, the OCC issued a procedural schedule for this case. On March 31, 2004, OG&E filed testimony and exhibits with the OCC, which completes the initial documentation required to be filed in this case. On July 12, 2004, several parties filed responsive testimony reflecting various positions on the issues related to this case. In particular, the testimony of the OCC Staff recommended that OG&E be entitled to recover the $46.8 million requested, which results in no refund, and also recommends OG&E to provide at its next general rate review the results of an open competitive bidding process or a comprehensive market study. If OG&E does not provide such open bidding or market study, the staff recommendation would cap recovery at approximately $40 million at OG&E’s next general rate review. The recommendations in the testimony of the Attorney General’s office and the Oklahoma Industrial Energy Consumers would cap recovery at approximately $35 million and $30 million, respectively, with the difference between what OG&E has been collecting through its fuel adjustment clause and these recommended amounts being refunded to customers. OG&E expects to file rebuttal testimony in August 2004 in this case. Hearings in this case currently are scheduled for September 16, 17 and 20, 2004 and an OCC order in the case is expected by the end of 2004. OG&E believes the amount currently

paid to Enogex for integrated, firm no-notice load following transportation and storage services is fair, just and reasonable. If any amounts paid by OG&E are found not to be recoverable, OG&E believes such amount would not be material.

Security Enhancements

On April 8, 2002, OG&E filed a joint application with the OCC requesting approval for security investments and a rider to recover these costs from the ratepayers. On August 14, 2002, OG&E filed testimony with the OCC outlining proposed expenditures and related actions for security enhancement and a proposed recovery rider. Attempting to make security investments at the proper level, OG&E has developed a set of guidelines intended to minimize long-term or widespread outages, minimize the impact on critical national defense and related customers, maximize the ability to respond to and recover from an attack, minimize the financial impact on OG&E that might be caused by an attack and accomplish these efforts with minimal impact on ratepayers. The OCC Staff retained a security expert to review the report filed by OG&E. All responsive testimony in this case is required to be filed by August 13, 2004 and OG&E may file rebuttal testimony in September 2004 in this case if necessary. Hearings in this case currently are scheduled for November 9-11, 2004 and an OCC order in the case is expected in early 2005.

On October 17, 2003, the OCC filed a notice of inquiry to consider the issues related to the role of the OCC and Oklahoma regulated companies in addressing the security of the utility system infrastructure and key assets. On March 4, 2004, the OCC deliberated the notice of inquiry and directed the OCC Staff to file a rulemaking proceeding for each utility industry regarding security of the utility system infrastructure and key assets.

FERC Standards of Conduct

On November 25, 2003, the FERC issued new rules regulating the relationships between electric and natural gas transmission providers, as defined in the rules, and those entities’ merchant personnel and energy affiliates. The new rules will replace the existing rules governing these relationships. The new rules expand the definition of “affiliate” and further limit communications between transmission providers and those entities’ merchant personnel and energy affiliates, and, as the new rules continue to evolve, could materially increase the operating costs of market participants, including OG&E and Enogex.

In February 2004, OG&E and Enogex submitted plans and schedules to the FERC which detail the necessary actions to be in compliance with these new rules and expected that their initial costs to comply with the final rules would not exceed $1.6 million in 2004. On April 16, 2004, the FERC issued an order on rehearing in which the FERC largely rejected requests to revise its November 25 final rule. However, the FERC did extend the compliance date until September 1, 2004 and did clarify certain aspects of the rule. Based upon the progress made to date, OG&E and Enogex now anticipate that the initial costs to comply with the final rules will not exceed $1.0 million in 2004.

Market-Based Rate Authority

On April 14, 2004, the FERC issued (1) interim requirements for FERC jurisdictional electric utilities who have been granted authority to make wholesale sales at market-based rates, and (2) an order initiating a new rulemaking on future market-based rates authorizations. The interim method for analyzing generation market power requires two assessments - whether the utility is a pivotal supplier based on a control area’s annual peak demand and whether the utility exceeds certain market share thresholds on a seasonal basis. If an applicant is determined to have generation market power, the applicant must propose a market power mitigation plan. The new interim assessment methods are applicable to all pending initial market-based rate applications and triennial reviews pending the rulemaking described below. The triennial reviews of OG&E and OERI are currently pending before the FERC. In the rulemaking proceeding, the FERC is seeking comments on the adequacy of the FERC’s current analysis of market-based rate filings, including the adequacy of the new “interim” assessment of generation market power. The Company is reviewing the new requirements to determine what, if any, impact the new requirements will have on the wholesale market-based rate authority of OG&E and OERI. The Company must submit a compliance filing to the FERC by February 7, 2005 which shows the impact of the new requirements on OG&E and OERI.

Department of Energy Blackout Report

On April 6, 2004, the U.S. Department of Energy issued its final report regarding the August 14, 2003 electric blackout in the eastern United States, which did not have an adverse affect on OG&E’s electric system. The report recommends a number of specific changes to current statutes, rules or practices in order to improve the reliability of the infrastructure used to transmit electric power. The recommendations include the establishment of mandatory reliability standards and financial penalties for noncompliance. On April 14, 2004, the FERC issued a policy statement requiring electric utilities, including OG&E, to submit a report on vegetation management practices and indicating the FERC’s intent to make North American Electric Reliability Council reliability standards mandatory. On June 17, 2004, OG&E filed its report on vegetation management practices with the FERC. Implementation of the blackout report recommendations and the FERC policy statement could increase future transmission costs, but the extent of the increased costs is not known at this time.

Redbud Tariff Filing

On March 5, 2004, Redbud Energy LP (“Redbud”) filed a rate schedule with the FERC in Docket No. ER04-622-000 under which Redbud proposed to charge OG&E a rate for transmission service Redbud alleges it provides to OG&E over certain facilities that Redbud constructed to connect its generation facility to the OG&E transmission grid. Redbud claims that the facilities cost approximately $19.3 million, and seeks to recover this amount from OG&E over a 60-month period. Also on March 5, 2004, Redbud filed an application with the FERC in Docket No. EG04-38-000 asking the FERC to rule that Redbud can charge OG&E this fee for transmission service and remain an exempt wholesale generator under Section 32 of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. OG&E opposed Redbud’s filings in the two dockets on the grounds that Redbud is not entitled to impose such a transmission rate, and that the

imposition of such a rate is inconsistent with Redbud’s status as an exempt wholesale generator. On May 4, 2004, the FERC issued an order rejecting Redbud’s proposed rate schedule. Redbud has since asked the FERC to rehear and reverse its May 4 order rejecting Redbud’s filing. At this time, OG&E does not know when the FERC will rule on Redbud’s request for rehearing.

State Legislative Initiatives

Oklahoma

As previously reported, the Oklahoma legislature originally adopted the Electric Restructuring Act of 1997 (the “1997 Act”) to provide retail customers in Oklahoma with a choice of their electric supplier. The scheduled start date for customer choice has been indefinitely postponed. In the 2003 legislative session, attempts to repeal the 1997 Act were initiated, but the session ended without repeal of the 1997 Act. It is unknown at this time whether the 1997 Act will be repealed.

In the 2004 legislative session, legislation was enacted requiring a study to determine the feasibility of providing investor-owned utilities an incentive to enter into purchase power agreements in Oklahoma by allowing the utilities to earn a return on purchased power. This study is scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2004 and the study committee is required to file a final report with its findings in January 2005.

Arkansas

In April 1999, Arkansas passed a law (the “Restructuring Law”) calling for restructuring of the electric utility industry at the retail level. The Restructuring Law, which had initially targeted customer choice of electricity providers by January 1, 2002, was repealed in March 2003 before it was implemented. As part of the repeal legislation, electric public utilities were permitted to recover transition costs. OG&E incurred approximately $2.4 million in transition costs necessary to carry out its responsibilities associated with efforts to implement retail open access. On January 20, 2004, the APSC issued an order which authorized OG&E to recover approximately $1.9 million in transition costs over an 18-month period beginning February 2004.

In the 2003 legislative session, legislation was enacted requiring a study relating to the restructuring of the electric utility industry at the industrial level to provide customer choice of electricity providers for large customers. This study is currently underway and the APSC is required to file a final report with its findings no later than September 30, 2004 to the General Assembly of Arkansas.

17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following information is provided regarding the estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, including derivative contracts related to the Company’s price risk management activities, which have significantly changed since December 31, 2003.

	June 30, 2004						December 31, 2003
(In millions)	Carrying Amount			Fair Value			Carrying Amount			Fair Value
Price Risk Management Assets
Energy Trading Contracts	$	91	.1	$	91	.1	$	67	.2	$	67	.2
Interest Rate Swaps		2	.7		2	.7		7	.6		7	.6
Price Risk Management Liabilities
Energy Trading Contracts	$	85	.4	$	85	.4	$	51	.4	$	51	.4
Interest Rate Swaps		1	.3		1	.3		-	--		-	--

The carrying value of the financial instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets not otherwise discussed above approximates fair value except for long-term debt which is valued at the carrying amount. The valuation of the Company’s interest rate swaps and energy trading contracts was determined primarily based on quoted market prices. However, in certain instances where market quotes are not available, other valuation techniques or models are used to estimate market values. The valuation of instruments also considers the credit risk of the counterparties and the potential impact of liquidating the position in an orderly manner over a reasonable period of time.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

Introduction

The operations of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment are conducted through Enogex Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Enogex”) and consist of three related businesses: (i) the transportation and storage of natural gas, (ii) the gathering and processing of natural gas and (iii) the marketing of natural gas (collectively, “Enogex’s businesses”). Enogex’s focus is to utilize its gathering, processing, transportation and storage capacity to execute physical, financial and service transactions to capture revenues across different commodities, locations or time periods. The vast majority of Enogex’s natural gas gathering, processing, transportation and storage assets are located in the major gas producing basins of Oklahoma. Through a 75 percent interest in the NOARK Pipeline System Limited Partnership, Enogex also owns a controlling interest in and operates the Ozark Gas Transmission System (“Ozark”), a FERC regulated interstate pipeline that extends from southeast Oklahoma through Arkansas to southeast Missouri. Enogex sold its interests in certain gas gathering and processing assets in Texas in the first quarter of 2003, which is reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical statements contained herein, the matters discussed in the following discussion and analysis, including the discussion in “Outlook”, are forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Such forward-looking statements are intended to be identified in this document by the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “objective”, “plan”, “possible”, “potential” and similar expressions. Actual results may vary materially. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: general economic conditions, including the availability of credit, actions of rating agencies and their impact on capital expenditures; the Company’s ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to obtain financing on favorable terms; prices of electricity, natural gas and natural gas liquids, each on a stand-alone basis and in relation to each

other; business conditions in the energy industry; competitive factors including the extent and timing of the entry of additional competition in the markets served by the Company; unusual weather; state and federal legislative initiatives and regulatory decisions; changes in accounting standards, rules or guidelines; creditworthiness of suppliers, customers, and other contractual parties; and other risk factors listed in the reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission including Exhibit 99.01 to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Overview

General

The following discussion and analysis presents factors which affected the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 and the Company’s consolidated financial position at June 30, 2004. The following information should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto and the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. Known trends and contingencies of a material nature are discussed to the extent considered relevant.

In the first quarter of 2003, Enogex sold its interests in certain gas gathering and processing assets that were owned by Enogex through its interest in the NuStar Joint Venture (“NuStar”). As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, these dispositions have been reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Operating Results

The Company reported net income of approximately $39.0 million, or $0.44 per share, as compared to approximately $32.2 million, or $0.41 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company reported net income of approximately $49.2 million, or $0.56 per share, as compared to approximately $31.9 million, or $0.40 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase in net income during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily due to higher gross margin on revenues (“gross margin”) in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s marketing business, lower interest expenses at the holding company and lower income tax expense at OG&E. These increases to net income were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s transportation and storage business and higher operating expenses and income tax expense at Enogex. Also affecting earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was a higher amount of common stock outstanding from the Company’s equity issuance in August 2003 and the issuance of common stock in 2003 pursuant to the Company’s Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”). The increase in net income during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily due to higher gross margins in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s transportation and storage business, lower interest expenses at the holding company and lower operating expenses and income tax expense at OG&E. Also contributing to

the increase in net income was a loss recorded during the first quarter of 2003 related to a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. These increases to net income were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s marketing business and higher operating expenses at Enogex. The Company’s results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, include income of approximately $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share, and $1.3 million, or $0.01 per share, from the discontinued operations discussed above. See “Results of Operations – Enogex – Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion. Also affecting earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was a higher amount of common stock outstanding from the Company’s equity issuance in August 2003 and the issuance of common stock in 2003 pursuant to the Company’s DRIP.

OG&E reported net income of approximately $30.4 million, or $0.34 per share of the Company’s common stock, as compared to approximately $27.9 million, or $0.35 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. OG&E reported net income of approximately $30.4 million, or $0.35 per share, as compared to approximately $24.6 million, or $0.31 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The improvement in earnings at OG&E during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily attributable to lower operating expenses and income tax expense partially offset by lower gross margins from the timing of fuel recoveries and lower sales to wholesale customers partially offset by warmer than normal weather and growth in OG&E’s service territory. The decrease in earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 reflects a higher amount of common stock outstanding from the Company’s equity issuance in August 2003 and the issuance of common stock in 2003 pursuant to the Company’s DRIP. The improvement in earnings at OG&E during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily attributable to lower operating expenses and income tax expense partially offset by lower gross margins from the timing of fuel recoveries, lower sales to wholesale customers and milder than normal weather partially offset by growth in OG&E’s service territory.

Enogex’s operations, including discontinued operations, reported net income of approximately $11.5 million, or $0.13 per share of the Company’s common stock, as compared to approximately $7.7 million, or $0.10 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Enogex’s operations, including discontinued operations, reported net income of approximately $24.3 million, or $0.28 per share, as compared to approximately $13.2 million, or $0.17 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The improvement in earnings at Enogex during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily attributable to higher gross margins in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s marketing business from, among other things, revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. These increases were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s transportation and storage business and higher operating expenses and income tax expense. The improvement in earnings at Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily attributable to higher gross margins in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s transportation and storage business from, among other things, increased levels of transportation

and storage revenues, revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. Also contributing to the increase in net income was a loss recorded during the first quarter of 2003 related to a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. These increases were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s marketing business and higher operating expenses.

As stated above, Enogex’s interest in NuStar has been reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as these assets have been sold. There were no results of operations from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The Company’s results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, include income of approximately $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share, and $1.3 million, or $0.01 per share, from the discontinued operations discussed above. This decrease was attributable to the sale of NuStar in the first quarter of 2003, partially offset by funds received in the first quarter of 2004 related to an overpayment of natural gas purchases in a prior period. See “Results of Operations – Enogex – Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion.

During the three months ended June 30, 2004, Enogex had approximately $2.6 million in net income relating to various non-recurring items. Authorized recovery of previously under recovered fuel provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $1.6 million and Enogex had a gain on the sale of compression and processing assets of approximately $1.0 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2003, Enogex had approximately $3.2 million in net income from the authorized recovery of previously under recovered fuel.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, Enogex had approximately $6.6 million in net income relating to various non-recurring items. Authorized recovery of previously under recovered fuel provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $2.8 million and the Oklahoma investment tax credit provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $2.0 million. In addition, Enogex had a gain on the sale of compression and processing assets of approximately $1.7 million and income from discontinued operations contributed approximately $0.4 million. These increases were partially offset by approximately $0.3 million due to other miscellaneous items. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, Enogex had approximately $4.6 million in net income relating to various non-recurring items. The gain on the sale of assets provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $2.7 million and authorized recovery of previously under recovered fuel provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $2.3 million. Income from discontinued operations provided a positive earnings contribution of approximately $1.3 million. These increases were partially offset by an income tax adjustment of approximately $1.7 million.

The results of the holding company reflect a loss of approximately $0.03 per share and $0.07 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, as compared to losses of approximately $0.04 per share and $0.08 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, primarily due to lower interest expenses.

2002 Settlement Agreement

On October 11, 2002, OG&E, the OCC Staff, the Oklahoma Attorney General and other interested parties agreed to settle OG&E’s rate case. The administrative law judge subsequently recommended approval of the agreed-upon settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”) and on November 22, 2002, the OCC signed a rate order containing the provisions of the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Agreement provides for, among other items: (i) a $25.0 million annual reduction in the electric rates of OG&E’s Oklahoma customers which went into effect January 6, 2003; (ii) recovery by OG&E, through rate base, of the capital expenditures associated with the January 2002 ice storm; (iii) OG&E to acquire electric generation of not less than 400 megawatts (“MW”) (“New Generation”) to be integrated into OG&E’s generation system; and (iv) recovery by OG&E, over three years, of the $5.4 million in deferred operating costs, associated with the January 2002 ice storm, through OG&E’s rider for sales to other utilities and power marketers (“off-system sales”). Previously, OG&E had a 50/50 sharing mechanism in Oklahoma for any off-system sales. The Settlement Agreement provided that the first $1.8 million in annual net profits from OG&E’s off-system sales will go to OG&E, the next $3.6 million in annual net profits from off-system sales will go to OG&E’s Oklahoma customers, and any net profits of off-system sales in excess of these amounts will be credited in each sales year with 80 percent to OG&E’s Oklahoma customers and the remaining 20 percent to OG&E. If any of the $5.4 million is not recovered at the end of the three years, the OCC will authorize the recovery of any remaining costs. During the first quarter of 2004, OG&E received approximately $1.8 million in annual net profits from OG&E’s off-system sales in accordance with the Settlement Agreement.

OCC Order Confirming Savings

The Settlement Agreement requires that, if OG&E did not acquire the New Generation by December 31, 2003, OG&E must credit $25.0 million annually (at a rate of 1/12 of $25.0 million per month for each month that the New Generation is not in place) to its Oklahoma customers beginning January 1, 2004 and continuing through December 31, 2006. As discussed in more detail below, in August 2003 OG&E signed an agreement to purchase a 77 percent interest in the 520 MW NRG McClain Station (the “McClain Plant”), but due to a delay at the FERC, the acquisition was not completed by December 31, 2003. In the interim, OG&E entered into a power purchase agreement with the McClain Plant that delivered the savings guaranteed to OG&E’s customers. OG&E requested that the OCC confirm that the steps it has taken, including the power purchase agreement, were satisfying the customer savings obligation under the Settlement Agreement and that OG&E would not be required to begin crediting its customers. On April 28, 2004, the OCC issued an order confirming that OG&E was delivering savings to its customers as required under the Settlement Agreement. The order removed any uncertainty over whether OG&E had to reduce its rates, effective January 1, 2004, while it awaited action by the FERC on its application to purchase the McClain Plant. A party to the OCC proceeding has appealed the OCC’s order to the Oklahoma Supreme Court. OG&E currently believes that the appeal is without merit.

Recent Acquisition of Power Plant

Outlook

The Company currently expects that consolidated earnings in 2004 will be between $1.60 and $1.70 per share, which includes the positive impact of non-recurring items during the first six months of 2004, normal weather and no change in OG&E’s electric rates. The 2004 outlook is based on continued improvement in financial performance at OG&E and Enogex, with net income of between $120 million and $124 million at OG&E and net income of between $34 million and $38 million at Enogex. The 2004 outlook also is based on a projected loss for the holding company of approximately $13 million to $14 million, and assumes approximately 88.4 million average diluted shares outstanding for 2004.

Enogex expects to continue to evaluate the strategic fit and financial performance of each of its assets in an effort to ensure a proper economic allocation of resources. The magnitude and timing of any potential impairment or gain on the disposition of any assets have not been determined.

In reviewing its consolidated operating results, the Company believes that it is appropriate to focus on operating income as reported in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as operating income indicates the ongoing profitability of the Company excluding unusual or infrequent items, the cost of capital and income taxes. Operating income was approximately $82.2 million and $76.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Operating income was approximately $113.2 million and $104.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These amounts exclude the results of NuStar, which as explained above, was sold in the first quarter of 2003 and which is reported as discontinued operations. See “Enogex – Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion.

Quarter ended June 30, 2004 as compared to quarter ended June 30, 2003

OG&E’s operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 decreased approximately $0.6 million or 1.1 percent as compared to the same period in 2003. The decrease in operating income was primarily attributable to the timing of fuel recoveries and lower sales to wholesale customers partially offset by warmer than normal weather, growth in OG&E’s service territory and lower operating expenses.

Gross margin, which is operating revenues less cost of goods sold, was approximately $168.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $171.0 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $2.7 million or 1.6 percent. The gross margin decreased approximately $3.5 million due to the timing of fuel recoveries and decreased approximately $0.9 million due to lower sales to wholesale customers primarily resulting from reduced sales of power under a new wholesale contract with an existing customer. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of approximately $1.0 million due to warmer than normal weather and an increase of approximately $0.8 million due to growth in OG&E’s service territory.

Cost of goods sold for OG&E consists of fuel used in electric generation and purchased power. Fuel expense was approximately $162.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $125.6 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $37.2 million or 29.6 percent. The increase was due primarily to an increase in the average cost of fuel per kwh due to higher natural gas prices. Purchased power costs were approximately $80.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $61.3 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $19.1 million or 31.2 percent. The increase was due to an increase of 43.3 percent in the volume of energy purchased primarily due to economic purchases.

Variances in the actual cost of fuel used in electric generation and certain purchased power costs, as compared to the fuel component included in the cost-of-service for ratemaking, are passed through to OG&E’s customers through automatic fuel adjustment clauses. While the regulatory mechanisms for recovering fuel costs differ in Oklahoma, Arkansas and FERC, in each jurisdiction the costs are passed through to customers and are intended to provide neither an ultimate benefit nor detriment to OG&E. The automatic fuel adjustment clauses are subject to periodic review by the OCC, the APSC and the FERC. The OCC, the APSC and the FERC have authority to review the appropriateness of gas transportation charges or other fees OG&E pays to Enogex. See Note 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of current proceedings at the OCC regarding OG&E’s gas transportation and storage contract with Enogex.

Other operating expenses, consisting of operating and maintenance expense, depreciation expense and taxes other than income were approximately $113.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $115.7 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $2.1 million or 1.8 percent. Operating and maintenance expense decreased approximately $3.4 million or 4.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of

approximately $2.4 million in salaries and wages expense and a decrease of approximately $2.3 million in pension and benefit expense during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 due to more projects on which the costs are capitalized and are not being expensed currently. Also contributing to the decrease were lower property insurance costs of approximately $0.4 million. These decreases in operating and maintenance expense were partially offset by an increase of approximately $1.1 million in outside services and an increase of approximately $0.9 million in materials and supplies expense. Depreciation expense increased approximately $1.2 million or 4.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 primarily due to a change in the depreciation rates for OG&E’s power plants.

Six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2003

OG&E’s operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased approximately $2.3 million or 4.0 percent as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to growth in OG&E’s service territory and lower operating expenses partially offset by the timing of fuel recoveries, lower sales to wholesale customers and milder than normal weather.

Gross margin was approximately $289.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $289.6 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $0.2 million or 0.1 percent. The gross margin decreased approximately $2.5 million due to the timing of fuel recoveries and decreased approximately $1.5 million due to lower sales to wholesale customers primarily resulting from reduced sales of power under a new wholesale contract with an existing customer. Also contributing to the decreased gross margin was a decrease of approximately $1.1 million due to milder than normal weather. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of approximately $4.8 million due to growth in OG&E’s service territory.

Fuel expense was approximately $270.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $266.9 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $3.9 million or 1.5 percent. The increase was due primarily to an increase in the average cost of fuel per kwh due to higher natural gas prices. Purchased power costs were approximately $155.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $134.0 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $21.6 million or 16.1 percent. The increase was due to an increase of 28.1 percent in the volume of energy purchased primarily due to economic purchases.

Other operating expenses were approximately $229.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $232.2 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $2.5 million or 1.1 percent. Operating and maintenance expense decreased approximately $3.8 million or 2.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $3.4 million in salaries and wages expense and a decrease of approximately $2.7 million in pension and benefit expense during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 due to more projects on which the costs are capitalized and are not

being expensed currently. These decreases in operating and maintenance expense were partially offset by an increase of approximately $1.9 million in bad debt expense and an increase of approximately $0.8 million in outside services. Depreciation expense increased approximately $0.5 million or 0.8 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 primarily due to a change in the depreciation rates for OG&E’s power plants. Taxes other than income increased approximately $0.8 million or 3.4 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 primarily due to an increase of approximately $0.5 million in ad valorem taxes and an increase of approximately $0.4 million in payroll taxes.

Quarter ended June 30, 2004 as compared to quarter ended June 30, 2003

Enogex’s operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased approximately $5.7 million or 26.4 percent as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to higher gross margins in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s marketing business from, among other things, revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. These increases were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s transportation and storage business and higher operating expenses. Enogex sold its interest in NuStar during the first quarter of 2003; accordingly this is reported as discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See “Enogex – Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion.

Transportation and storage contributed approximately $33.4 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $35.3 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $1.9 million or 5.4 percent. Gross margins decreased approximately $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 due to the fact that certain contractual revenues that were recorded in transportation and storage in 2003 began being recorded in gathering and processing in 2004. Gross margins also decreased approximately $1.5 million due to reduced fuel recoveries associated with under recovered fuel in prior periods. Partially offsetting these decreases in gross margin was an increase from higher storage revenues of approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The

increased storage revenues were mainly due to additional demand fees from the storage contract with OG&E, which was effective May 2003. Gross margin also was positively impacted for the three months ended June 30, 2004 by increased crosshaul revenues of approximately $0.9 million and higher interruptible revenues of approximately $0.8 million reflecting increases in crosshaul margins and volumes and interruptible contract volumes. Gross margin also increased by approximately $0.6 million due to the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at more favorable purchase and sale terms.

Gathering and processing contributed approximately $31.4 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $21.3 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $10.1 million or 47.4 percent. Gathering gross margins increased approximately $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003, of which approximately $4.0 million reflects the change in 2004 discussed above of recording certain contractual revenues in gathering and processing rather than in transportation and storage. Gross margins also increased due to revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. Processing gross margins increased approximately $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase reflects increased keep whole, percent of liquids and condensate margins due to favorable commodity prices and an expense reallocation due to the fact that field compressor fuel that was recorded in processing in 2003 began being recorded in gathering in 2004. These increases were partially offset by default processing fee revenue recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2003. There was no default processing fee revenue recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Marketing contributed approximately $3.4 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $3.0 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $0.4 million or 13.3 percent. The increase was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $1.6 million in demand fees expense for storage services due to establishing new rates for the new storage season which began April 1, partially offset by a decrease of approximately $1.2 million in mark-to-market gains due to lower volumes in storage during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003.

Other operating expenses, consisting of operating and maintenance expense, depreciation expense and taxes other than income, for Enogex were approximately $40.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $38.0 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $2.9 million or 7.6 percent. Operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $2.7 million or 12.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase reflects higher allocations from the holding company of approximately $1.3 million, an increase of approximately $0.9 million in payroll, benefit and pension expenses due to hiring new employees and payment of overtime and salary increases and higher materials and supplies expense for repairs and maintenance of systems of approximately $0.5 million. Depreciation expense increased approximately $0.3 million or 2.7 percent primarily due to a higher level of depreciable plant.

Six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2003

Enogex’s operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased approximately $6.4 million or 13.6 percent as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to higher gross margins in Enogex’s gathering and processing business and Enogex’s transportation and storage business from, among other things, increased levels of transportation and storage revenues, revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. These increases were partially offset by a lower gross margin in Enogex’s marketing business and higher operating expenses. Enogex sold its interest in NuStar during the first quarter of 2003; accordingly this is reported as discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See “Enogex – Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion.

Transportation and storage contributed approximately $63.9 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $63.0 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $0.9 million or 1.4 percent. Gross margins increased approximately $2.7 million due to a decrease in third party imbalance expense and approximately $2.2 million from higher storage revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increased storage revenues were mainly due to additional demand fees from the storage contract with OG&E, which was effective May 2003. Gross margin increased by approximately $1.2 million due to the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at more favorable purchase and sale terms. Gross margins increased approximately $0.9 million from higher interruptible revenues due to an increase in interruptible contract volumes. Also contributing to the increase in gross margin were increased transportation revenues of approximately $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from additional demand fees from the transportation contract with OG&E, which was effective May 2003, and an increase of approximately $0.6 million in crosshaul revenues from increased crosshaul margins and volumes. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $5.8 million due to the fact that certain contractual revenues that were recorded in transportation and storage in 2003 began being recorded in gathering and processing in 2004. Gross margin also was adversely impacted by approximately $1.5 million due to reduced fuel recoveries associated with under recovered fuel in prior periods.

Gathering and processing contributed approximately $63.9 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $43.5 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $20.4 million or 46.9 percent. Gathering gross margins increased approximately $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003, of which approximately $7.9 million reflects the change in 2004 discussed above of recording certain contractual revenues in gathering and processing rather than in transportation and storage. Gross margins also increased due to revenue improvements generated from the negotiation of both new contracts and replacement contracts at better terms that resulted in increases in gathering fees and reductions in the purchase price of gas and an overall favorable business environment. Processing gross margins increased approximately $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as

compared to the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily due to increased keep whole, percent of liquids and condensate margins due to favorable commodity prices and an expense reallocation due to the fact that field compressor fuel that was recorded in processing in 2003 began being recorded in gathering in 2004. These increases were partially offset by default processing fee revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2003. There was no default processing fee revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Marketing contributed approximately $6.1 million of Enogex’s gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $16.3 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $10.2 million or 62.6 percent. Gross margin included gains from the sale of natural gas in storage of approximately $2.2 million and $10.2 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The decrease in the gains of the sale of natural gas in storage was primarily due to Enogex recording approximately a $9.0 million pre-tax loss as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2003 rather than this loss being included as a reduction of the gross margin. The cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle was the result of accounting for certain energy contracts and natural gas in storage at the lower of cost or market rather than on a mark-to-market basis. See Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion. Also contributing to the decrease was a decrease of approximately $0.8 million in mark-to-market gains due to lower volumes in storage during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003, offset by a decrease of approximately $0.8 million in demand fees expense for storage services due to establishing new rates for the new storage season which began April 1.

Other operating expenses for Enogex were approximately $80.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $75.9 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $4.7 million or 6.2 percent. Operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $3.6 million or 8.0 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase reflects higher allocations from the holding company of approximately $2.2 million, an increase of approximately $1.4 million in payroll, benefit and pension expenses due to hiring new employees and payment of overtime and salary increases, higher materials and supplies expense for repairs and maintenance of systems of approximately $0.8 million and higher outside service costs of approximately $0.3 million. These increases were partially offset by approximately $0.2 million of lower lease payments from the dissolution of a lease in the third quarter of 2003. Depreciation expense increased approximately $0.6 million or 2.7 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 primarily due to a higher level of depreciable plant. Taxes other than income increased approximately $0.5 million or 5.7 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 primarily due to an increase of approximately $0.3 million in ad valorem taxes and an increase of approximately $0.2 million in payroll taxes.

Consolidated Other Income and Expense, Interest Expense and Income Tax Expense

Other income includes, among other things, contract work performed by OG&E, non-operating rental income, gain on the sale of assets, profit on the retirement of fixed assets, minority interest income and miscellaneous non-operating income. Other income was

approximately $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $0.6 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $2.3 million. The increase was primarily due to gains of approximately $1.6 million on the sale of certain of Enogex’s compression and processing assets and approximately $0.3 million from the sale of land near the Company’s principal executive offices during the three months ended June 30, 2004, as well as an increase of approximately $0.2 million in the assets associated with the deferred compensation plan and retirement restoration plan.

Other income was approximately $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $6.7 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $1.0 million or 14.9 percent. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $5.3 million related to the sale of approximately 29 miles of transmission lines of the Ozark pipeline. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company realized gains of approximately $2.8 million on the sale of certain of Enogex’s compression and processing assets, approximately $1.0 million in the assets associated with the deferred compensation plan and retirement restoration plan and approximately $0.3 million from the sale of land near the Company’s principal executive offices.

Other expense includes, among other things, expenses from loss on the sale of assets, loss on retirement of fixed assets, minority interest expense, miscellaneous charitable donations, expenditures for certain civic, political and related activities and miscellaneous deductions. Other expense was approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $0.6 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $0.9 million primarily due to an increase of approximately $0.6 million in the liability associated with the deferred compensation plan and retirement restoration plan.

Other expense was approximately $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $3.6 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $0.6 million or 16.7 percent. This difference reflects the recognition, in the first quarter of 2003, of approximately $1.1 million in minority interest expense related to the gain from the sale of approximately 29 miles of transmission lines of the Ozark pipeline that was attributable to the minority interest, that was partially offset by an increase of approximately $0.9 million in the liability associated with the deferred compensation plan and retirement restoration plan.

Net interest expense includes interest income, interest expense and other interest charges. Net interest expense was approximately $23.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $25.0 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $1.5 million or 6.0 percent. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $0.7 million in interest expense due to a lower average commercial paper balance for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 and lower interest expense accruals (approximately $0.2 million) during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 due to a reduction in long-term debt and lower interest rates.

Net interest expense was approximately $46.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $49.6 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $3.0 million or 6.0 percent. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $1.4 million in interest expense due to a lower average commercial paper balance for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 and lower interest expense accruals (approximately $1.0 million) during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 due to a reduction in long-term debt and lower interest rates.

Income tax expense was approximately $21.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $19.4 million during the same period in 2003, an increase of approximately $1.7 million or 8.8 percent. The increase was primarily due to higher pre-tax income for Enogex and OG&E. This increase was partially offset by a change in the timing of the recognition of book and tax permanent differences in 2004 and the recognition of additional Oklahoma state tax credits of approximately $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004. Amortization of the federal investment tax credits was approximately $1.3 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

Income tax expense was approximately $20.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $21.3 million during the same period in 2003, a decrease of approximately $0.8 million or 3.8 percent. The decrease was primarily due to the recognition of additional Oklahoma state tax credits of approximately $4.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and a change in the timing of the recognition of book and tax permanent differences in 2004 partially offset by higher pre-tax income for Enogex and OG&E. Amortization of the federal investment tax credits was approximately $2.6 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

Enogex – Discontinued Operations

Enogex sold its interests in NuStar for approximately $37.0 million in February 2003. The Company recognized approximately a $1.4 million after tax gain related to the sale of these assets in the first quarter of 2003. The final accounting for the NuStar sale was completed in the third quarter of 2003 which resulted in an additional charge of approximately $0.2 million after tax which was recorded in the third quarter of 2003. The final accounting is subject to approval by all parties to the sale of the joint venture interest. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company recognized approximately $0.4 million after tax from funds received related to an overpayment for natural gas purchases in a prior period.

As a result of this sale transaction, Enogex’s interest in NuStar, which was part of the Natural Gas Pipeline segment, has been reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Results for the discontinued operations are summarized and discussed below.

The balance of Cash and Cash Equivalents was approximately $44.7 million and $245.6 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $200.9 million or 81.8 percent. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in short-term investments at December 31, 2003 in anticipation of the planned acquisition of the McClain Plant. Due to a delay in the completion of the McClain Plant acquisition, the Company used short-term investments and proceeds received from the sale of natural gas inventory at Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to reduce the outstanding commercial paper balance.

The balance of Accounts Receivable was approximately $390.2 million and $350.2 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $40.0 million or 11.4 percent. The increase was primarily due to higher natural gas prices and volumes associated with Enogex’s activities in the second quarter of 2004 partially offset by a decrease in OG&E’s billings to its customers reflecting lower fuel costs in June 2004 as compared to December 2003 primarily due to an increase in the credit for previous fuel over recoveries.

The balance of Accrued Unbilled Revenues was approximately $66.2 million and $38.0 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $28.2 million. The increase reflects higher seasonal electric rates and increased usage due to warmer weather during June 2004 as compared to December 2003.

The balance of Fuel Inventories was approximately $116.4 million and $163.3 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $46.9 million or 28.7 percent. The decrease was primarily due to inventory sales at Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004.

The balance of current Price Risk Management assets was approximately $73.4 million and $61.3 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $12.1 million or 19.7 percent. The increase was primarily due to an increase in park and loan transactions and natural gas storage withdrawals associated with OGE Energy Resources, Inc.’s (“OERI”) activities during the six months ended June 30, 2004. This increase is offset by an increase in current Price Risk Management liabilities.

The balance of the Gas Imbalance asset was approximately $37.1 million and $70.0 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $32.9 million or 47.0 percent. The Gas Imbalance asset is comprised of planned or managed imbalances related to Enogex’s marketing business, referred to as park and loan transactions, and pipeline imbalances, which are operational imbalances. Park and loan transactions were approximately $24.1 million and $45.4 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $21.3 million or 46.9 percent. The decrease was due to the expiration of the park and loan transactions during the six months ended June 30, 2004. The Company expects to obtain and sell the majority of this gas during the third and fourth quarters of 2004. Operational imbalances were approximately $13.0 million and $24.6 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $11.6 million or 47.2 percent. The decrease was due to a reduction of volumes partially offset by an increase in natural gas prices.

The balance of Prepaid Benefit Obligation was approximately $85.7 million and $55.7 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $30.0 million or 53.9 percent. The increase was primarily due to the Company funding its pension plan during the second quarter of 2004 partially offset by pension accruals being credited to the prepaid benefit obligation.

The balance of Other Current Assets was approximately $4.9 million and $21.5 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $16.6 million or 77.2 percent. The decrease was primarily due to prepaid insurance amortization during the six months ended June 30, 2004 in addition to the deconsolidation of Energy Insurance Bermuda Ltd. Mutual Business Program No. 19 (“MBP 19”), effective January 1, 2004, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51.”

The balance of Short-Term Debt was approximately $202.5 million at December 31, 2003 primarily due to the planned acquisition of the McClain Plant. Due to a delay in the completion of the McClain Plant acquisition, the Company used short-term investments and proceeds received from the sale of natural gas inventory by Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to reduce the outstanding commercial paper balance. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2004.

The balance of Accounts Payable was approximately $343.0 million and $280.2 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $62.8 million or 22.4 percent. The increase was primarily due to higher natural gas prices and volumes associated with Enogex’s activities in the second quarter of 2004.

The balance of Accrued Taxes was approximately $41.8 million and $18.7 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $23.1 million. The increase was primarily due to the Company’s results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the timing of income tax payments in 2004.

The balance of current Price Risk Management liabilities was approximately $70.2 million and $46.9 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, an increase of approximately $23.3 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in park and loan transactions and natural gas storage withdrawals associated with OERI’s activities during the six months ended June 30, 2004. This increase was partially offset by an increase in current Price Risk Management assets.

The balance of Fuel Clause Under Recoveries was approximately $9.3 million at June 30, 2004. The balance of Fuel Clause Over Recoveries (net of Fuel Clause Under Recoveries) was approximately $28.4 million at December 31, 2003. The increase in fuel clause under recoveries was due to under recoveries from OG&E’s customers as OG&E’s cost of fuel exceeded the amount billed during 2004. The cost of fuel subject to recovery through the fuel clause mechanism was approximately $2.64 per Million British thermal unit (“MMBtu”) in June 2004, and was approximately $1.21 per MMBtu in December 2003. 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 cost in periods of rising prices above the baseline charge for fuel and over recovers fuel cost when prices decline below the baseline charge for fuel. Provisions in the fuel clauses allow OG&E to amortize under or over recovery.

The balance of Other Current Liabilities was approximately $28.4 million and $41.2 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, a decrease of approximately $12.8 million or 31.1 percent. The decrease was primarily due to incentive compensation payments partially offset by incentive compensation accruals during the six months ended June 30, 2004 in addition to the deconsolidation of MBP 19, effective January 1, 2004, in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements include any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements to which an unconsolidated entity is a party and under which the Company has: (i) any obligation under a guarantee contract having specific characteristics as defined in FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”; (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets; (iii) any obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument but is indexed to the Company’s own stock and is classified in stockholders’ equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet; or (iv) any obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest as defined in FASB Interpretation No. 46 in an unconsolidated entity that is held by, and material to, the Company, where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and

development services with, the Company. Except as set forth below, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Heat Pump Loans

OG&E has a heat pump loan program, whereby, qualifying customers may obtain a loan from OG&E to purchase a heat pump. In October 1998, OG&E sold approximately $25.0 million of its heat pump loans in a securitization transaction through OGE Consumer Loan LLC. During the second quarter of 2004, OG&E repurchased the outstanding heat pump loan balance of approximately $0.1 million. No gain or loss was recorded in the second quarter of 2004 related to this transaction.

Liquidity and Capital Requirements

The Company’s primary needs for capital are related to replacing or expanding existing facilities in OG&E’s electric utility business and replacing or expanding existing facilities at Enogex. Other capital requirements are primarily related to maturing debt, operating lease obligations, hedging activities, natural gas storage and delays in recovering unconditional fuel purchase obligations. The Company generally meets its cash needs through a combination of internally generated funds, short-term borrowings and permanent financings.

Early Retirement of Long-Term Debt

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

Fair Value Hedges

corporate long-term floating rate debt to reflect a level more in line with industry standards. These interest rate swaps qualified as fair value hedges under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended, and met all of the requirements for a determination that there was no ineffective portion as allowed by the shortcut method under SFAS No. 133.

Cash Flow Hedges

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company entered into three separate interest rate swap agreements, effective April 16, 2004, April 21, 2004 and May 17, 2004, respectively, to hedge approximately $20.0 million, $30.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, of future interest payments of long-term debt expected to be issued later this year related to the planned redemption of $200.0 million of 8.375 percent trust preferred securities of OGE Energy Capital Trust I. These interest rate swap agreements mature on October 15, 2014. The objective of these interest rate swaps was to protect against the volatility of interest rates affecting future interest payments. These interest rate swaps qualified as cash flow hedges under SFAS No. 133 and met all of the requirements for a determination that there was no ineffective portion as allowed by the hypothetical derivative method under SFAS No. 133.

Future Capital Requirements

Capital Expenditures

The Company’s current 2004 to 2006 construction program includes the purchase of New Generation as discussed below. In addition to the 110 MW PowerSmith contract expiring in August 2004, for which OG&E recently entered into a replacement contract with PowerSmith (subject to OCC approval), OG&E has approximately 430 MWs of contracts with qualified cogeneration facilities and small power production producers’ (“QF contracts”) that will expire at the end of 2007, unless extended by OG&E. OG&E will continue reviewing all of the supply alternatives to these expiring QF contracts that minimize the total cost of generation to its customers, including exercising its options (if applicable) to extend these QF contracts at pre-determined rates. Accordingly, OG&E will continue to explore opportunities to build or buy power plants in order to serve its native load. As a result of the high volatility of current natural gas prices and the increase in natural gas prices, OG&E will also assess the feasibility of constructing additional base load coal-fired units. See Note 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of current proceedings involving a PowerSmith QF contract.

On August 18, 2003, OG&E signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire NRG McClain LLC’s 77 percent interest in the McClain Plant. OG&E completed the acquisition of the McClain Plant on July 9, 2004. The purchase price for the interest in the McClain Plant was approximately $160.0 million. See “Overview – Recent Acquisition of Power Plant.” OG&E funded the acquisition with short-term borrowings from the Company. OG&E expects to issue long-term debt to permanently finance the McClain Plant acquisition. Also, the Company expects to make a capital contribution to OG&E of approximately $153.0 million in August. To reliably meet the increased electricity needs of OG&E’s customers during the foreseeable future, OG&E will continue to invest to maintain the integrity of the delivery system. Approximately $10.5 million of the Company’s capital expenditures budgeted for 2004 are to comply with environmental laws and regulations.

Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans

and also expects to make contributions in the third quarter of 2004. The expected contributions to the pension plan, anticipated to be in the form of cash, are discretionary contributions and are not required to satisfy the minimum regulatory funding requirement specified by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

Security Ratings

The Company’s credit ratings from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) were as follows: OGE Energy Corp.’s senior unsecured debt, Baa1; OG&E’s senior unsecured debt, A2; Enogex’s senior unsecured debt, Baa3; and OGE Energy Corp.’s short-term commercial paper rating, P-2. The outlook for OGE Energy Corp. and OG&E is stable. On June 29, 2004, Moody’s upgraded Enogex’s outlook from negative to stable based on Enogex’s improved ability to tolerate adverse commodity price environments and to avoid future losses in several areas. Moody’s further discussed that Enogex is more financially flexible as a result of reducing interest expense over the past three years, is improving returns from asset rationalization, has lower but more profitable volumes and has more favorable gas processing contract terms.

Future Sources of Financing

Management expects that internally generated funds, funds received from the 2003 equity offering, proceeds from the sales of common stock pursuant to the Company’s DRIP and long and short-term debt will be adequate over the next three years to meet anticipated capital expenditures, operating needs, payment of dividends and maturities of long-term debt. As discussed below, the Company utilizes short-term debt to satisfy temporary working capital needs and as an interim source of financing capital expenditures until permanent financing is arranged. The Company issued equity in the third quarter of 2003 and issued common stock pursuant to the DRIP during 2003. With the acquisition of the McClain Plant complete, OG&E plans to issue long-term debt to permanently finance the McClain Plant acquisition and the Company plans to issue common stock pursuant to the DRIP during 2004.

Short-Term Debt

Short-term borrowings generally are used to meet working capital requirements. The short-term debt balance was approximately $202.5 million at December 31, 2003 due to the planned acquisition of the McClain Plant. Due to a delay in the completion of the McClain Plant acquisition, the Company used short-term investments and proceeds received from the sale of natural gas inventory by Enogex during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to reduce the outstanding commercial paper balance. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2004. In July 2004, the Company issued short-term debt to fund a portion of the McClain Plant acquisition, which closed July 9 and, as a result, the short-term debt balance was approximately $216.1 million at July 31, 2004.

(A) The lines of credit at OGE Energy Corp. are used to back up the Company’s commercial paper borrowings. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2004. In April 2004, the Company renewed its $15.0 million credit facility, shown in the table above, which matures April 6, 2005. Also, in June 2004, OG&E extended the maturity date of its $100.0 million credit facility, shown in the table above, to December 9, 2004.

Asset Sales

Also contributing to the liquidity of the Company have been numerous asset sales by Enogex. Since January 1, 2002, completed sales generated net proceeds of approximately $106.0 million. Sales proceeds generated to date have been used to reduce debt at Enogex and commercial paper at the holding company.

The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to enhance shareowner returns and achieve long-term financial objectives through acquisitions of assets that may complement its existing portfolio and divestitures of idle or under performing assets. Permanent financing would be required for any such acquisitions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain information that is pertinent to Management’s Discussion and Analysis. In preparing the Condensed Consolidated 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 liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes to these assumptions and estimates could have a material effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements particularly as they relate to pension expense and impairment estimates. However, the Company believes it has taken reasonable but conservative positions, where assumptions and estimates are used, in order to minimize the negative financial impact to the Company that could result if actual results vary from the assumptions and estimates. In management’s opinion, the areas of the Company where the most significant judgment is exercised is in the valuation of pension plan assumptions, impairment estimates, contingency reserves, accrued removal obligations, regulatory assets and liabilities, unbilled revenue for OG&E, the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, the valuation of energy purchase and sale contracts and natural gas storage inventory and fair value and cash flow hedging policies. The selection, application and disclosure of these critical accounting estimates have been discussed with the Company’s audit committee and are discussed in detail in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

Electric Competition; Regulation

OG&E and Enogex have been and will continue to be affected by competitive changes to the utility and energy industries. Significant changes already have occurred and additional changes are being proposed to the wholesale electric market. Although it appears unlikely in the near future that changes will occur to retail regulation in the states served by OG&E due to the significant problems faced by California in its electric deregulation efforts and other factors, significant changes are possible, which could significantly change the manner in which OG&E conducts its business. These developments at the federal and state levels are described in more detail in Note 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The Company currently has three important matters pending before the OCC. See Note 16 of Notes of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion.

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims made by third parties, environmental actions or the action of various regulatory agencies. Management consults with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess the claim. If in management’s opinion, the Company has incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Except as set forth, in Notes 15 and 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial

Statements, in Note 17 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and in Note 15 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently pending or threatened lawsuits, claims and contingencies will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. This assessment of currently pending or threatened lawsuits is subject to change.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Risk Management

The risk management process established by the Company is designed to measure both quantitative and qualitative risks in its businesses. A corporate risk management department, under the direction of a corporate risk oversight management committee, has been established to review these risks on a regular basis. The Company is exposed to market risk in its normal course of business, including changes in certain commodity prices and interest rates. The Company also engages in price risk management activities for both trading and non-trading purposes.

To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, the Company enters into various derivative and other forward transactions pursuant to the Company’s policies on hedging practices. These positions are monitored using techniques such as mark-to-market valuation, value-at-risk and sensitivity analysis.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to long-term debt obligations and commercial paper. The Company manages its interest rate exposure by limiting its variable rate debt to a certain percentage of total capitalization and by monitoring the effects of market changes in interest rates. The Company may utilize interest rate derivatives to alter interest rate exposure in an attempt to reduce interest rate expense related to existing debt issues. Interest rate derivatives are used solely to modify interest rate exposure and not to modify the overall leverage of the debt portfolio.

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk for changes in interest rates has not significantly changed since December 31, 2003. See Notes 11 and 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the Company’s long-term and short-term debt activity.

Commodity Price Risk

The market risks inherent in the Company’s market risk sensitive instruments, positions and anticipated commodity transactions are the potential losses in value arising from adverse changes in the commodity prices to which the Company is exposed. These market risks are broken into trading, which includes transactions that are voluntarily entered into to capture subsequent changes in commodity prices, and non-trading, which result from the exposure some of the Company’s assets have to commodity prices.

The trading activities are conducted throughout the year subject to daily and monthly trading stop loss limits of $2.5 million. The daily loss exposure from trading activities is measured primarily using value at risk, subject to a $1.5 million limit, as well as other quantitative risk measurement techniques. These limits are designed to mitigate the possibility of trading activities having a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating income.

The prices of natural gas, natural gas liquids and natural gas liquids processing spreads are subject to fluctuations resulting from changes in supply and demand. The changes in these prices have a direct effect on the operating income received by the Company as compensation for operating some of its assets. To partially reduce non-trading commodity price risk incurred in the Company’s normal course of business caused by these market fluctuations, the Company may hedge, through the utilization of derivatives and other forward transactions, the effects these market fluctuations have on the operating income received by the Company as compensation for operating these assets. Because the commodities covered by these hedges are substantially the same commodities that the Company buys and sells in the physical market, no special studies other than monitoring the degree of correlation between the derivative and cash markets are deemed necessary.

Sensitivity analyses have been prepared to estimate the trading and non-trading commodity price exposure to the market risk of the Company’s natural gas and natural gas liquids commodity positions. The Company’s daily net commodity position consists of natural gas inventories, commodity purchase and sales contracts, financial and commodity derivative instruments and anticipated natural gas processing spreads and fuel recoveries. The value of trading positions is a summation of the fair values calculated for each commodity by valuing each net position at quoted market prices. Because quoted market prices are not available for all of the Company’s non-trading positions, the value of non-trading positions is a summation of the forecasted values calculated for each commodity based upon internally generated forecast prices. Market risk is estimated as the potential loss in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10 percent adverse change in such prices over the next 12 months. The results of these analyses, which may differ from actual results, are as follows as of June 30, 2004.

(In millions)	Trading			Non-Trading
Commodity price risk, net	$	0	.4	$	5	.5

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits 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. 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 Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting has occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Reference is made to Part I, Item 3 of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and Part II, Item 1 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 for a description of certain legal proceedings presently pending. Except as set forth below and in Notes 15 and 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, there are no new significant cases to report against the Company or its subsidiaries and there have been no material changes in the previously reported proceedings.

Natural Gas Storage Facility Agreement with Central Oklahoma Oil and Gas Corp.

Kaiser-Francis Oil Company

As previously reported, OG&E had been sued by Kaiser-Francis Oil Company in District Court, Grady County, Oklahoma. Plaintiff alleged that OG&E breached the terms of several gas purchase contracts in amounts set forth in the contracts. In 2001, the district court rendered a verdict against OG&E in the amount of approximately $8.0 million, including pre-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees. OG&E filed an appeal and on May 18, 2004, the Court of Appeals issued an opinion reversing the judgment and remanding for a new trial. The appellate court found that the trial court committed reversible error in rejecting a portion of OG&E’s interpretation of the commercial well provisions of the gas purchase contracts, and in failing to recognize issues of fact for the jury relating to OG&E’s contention regarding the correct initial reserve estimate on one of the natural gas wells, the Thiel No 1-9. In addition, the appellate court made rulings favorable to OG&E relating to the statutory measure of damages, the effect of line pressure adjustment provisions in the contracts, and the admission of certain hearsay evidence. The appellate court made rulings favorable to Kaiser-Francis relating to the effect of royalty payment obligations on the amount of damages, the effect of the amount of reserves owned by Kaiser-Francis in the wells on OG&E’s gas purchase obligation, the propriety of the award of prejudgment interest, and OG&E’s liability for the payment of gross production taxes pertaining to the damages awarded. The appellate court returned an issue relating to the alleged effect of Kaiser-Francis’s failure to make gas available for consideration by the trial court. Finally, the appellate court denied Kaiser-Francis’s request for appeal-related attorney’s fees and costs. The Court of Appeals denied Kaiser-Francis’s motion for rehearing. The parties may file

petitions for certiorari, for review by the Oklahoma Supreme Court of those portions of the appellate court’s opinion unfavorable to each. While the Company cannot predict the precise outcome of this case, the Company believes, based on the information known at this time, that this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ARTICLE II

OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE; PAYMENTS

Operations and Maintenance Services . OMPA acknowledges and agrees that OG&E will become, as of the Effective Date, the Operator of the Facility pursuant to the Ownership and Operation Agreement. OG&E’s sole obligation pursuant to this Agreement shall be to make available to OMPA those operations and maintenance services to be provided with respect to the Facility by OG&E in accordance with Exhibit A to this Agreement and any major maintenance contracts for which OMPA is obligated to make payments pursuant to Section 2.02 , including in each case, to the extent of OMPA’s Ownership Ratio, any damages or other amounts payable to such other parties thereunder. In connection therewith, OG&E shall be solely liable for all payments to be made in providing the operation and maintenance services listed on Exhibit A hereto and shall have sole responsibility for the obligations of the “Owner” under Exhibit A. For this purpose, arrangements with third parties for services that are incidental to the primary function of the Facility, e.g ., an arrangement for the repair or major maintenance of the Facility, shall not be treated as a contract for the operation of the Facility, provided that the scope of any such arrangement is confined to services that are incidental; the duration of any such arrangement is limited to the period of time needed to perform such services; and the payments for such services under any such arrangement are a substantially predetermined amount (including, e.g., “cost plus”) which is not based on the revenues or profits that may be derived from the Facility.

2.01 Payments for Service . OG&E shall invoice OMPA monthly for OMPA’s Ownership Ratio of the Plant Expenses adjusted, to the extent applicable, for OG&E’s and/or OMPA’s Variable Operating Maintenance Share (as defined in the O&O Agreement).

2.02 Settlement of Overdelivery Charges . OG&E and OMPA are each parties to separate agreements for transmission of fuel to the Power Plant with a third-party provider, Oneok Transportation, LLC (“Oneok”). Pursuant to an understanding among OG&E, OMPA and Oneok, OG&E will be charged by Oneok any same day or next day overdeliveries caused by either OG&E and OMPA. OG&E and OMPA therefore agree that OG&E may invoice OMPA in accordance with Section 2.01 of this Agreement on a monthly basis for any overdelivery charges caused by OMPA.

2.03 Invoice or Payment Disputes or Errors . If either OG&E or OMPA discovers an error in the amount of any invoice or payment made pursuant to this Article II or if OMPA disputes a payment requested pursuant to this Article II , such party shall notify the other party within 60 days of discovery of such dispute or error, provided that neither party shall be entitled to correction of any such error if notice of such error is not delivered in writing to the other party within three years of the applicable invoice or payment. If OMPA disputes the amount of any invoice, it shall nevertheless pay the full amount of such invoice, subject to a right to a refund if the dispute is resolved in OMPA’s favor, and failure to pay such amount in dispute shall be deemed to be a default hereunder. Any disputes resulting from this Article II shall be settled in accordance with the provisions of Article VI .

2.04 Interest on Late Payments . Any amounts (a) disputed and subsequently found to have been correctly invoiced or owed, or (b) not timely paid in accordance with this Agreement shall accrue interest at the lesser of (i) the then effective prime rate of Citibank, N.A. plus 5%, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, from the day on which such amounts become due and owing to the day on which such amounts and the interest thereon are paid. OMPA and OG&E intend that this Agreement shall at all times comply with applicable law now or hereafter in effect governing interest payable hereunder. If the applicable law is ever revised, repealed, or judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Agreement, then all excess amounts theretofore collected shall be credited to the then applicable principal balance hereunder or be refunded, and this Agreement shall immediately be deemed to have been reformed and the amounts thereafter collected hereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder.

2.05 Audit . During ordinary business hours and upon reasonable notice to OG&E, OMPA may inspect, copy and audit OG&E’s books, records, accounts, ledgers, time cards, estimates, schedules, correspondence and other documents related to OG&E’s performance of its obligations hereunder and amounts due to OG&E hereunder; provided , however , that any audit of line item “Salaries – Incentive Pay” listed on Exhibit B hereto shall be limited to determining that any payments made by OG&E to employees at the Facility have been made consistent with payout amounts received by employees of OG&E at other power plants. OG&E agrees to keep such records for five years following their respective preparation (at which time it will be permitted to destroy such books and records in the ordinary course of business) and will furthermore keep any such books and records not previously destroyed in the ordinary course of business, for five years after the termination of this Agreement, and shall provide copies to OMPA upon request, at OMPA’s expense. OMPA’s acceptance or approval or payment of OG&E’s charges shall not operate as a waiver of OMPA’s right to audit OG&E in accordance with this Section 2.05 .

ARTICLE III

TERM OF AGREEMENT; TERMINATION

3.01 Term . This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until, and shall terminate automatically without any further action by the parties hereto on the Termination Date as defined in the O&O Agreement.

3.02 Termination . Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.01 to the contrary, upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.01 , and in addition to any amounts payable by OMPA through the effective date of such termination pursuant to Article II , OG&E shall be entitled to a payment equal to OMPA’s Ownership Ratio of all ordinary and necessary costs, losses or expenses incurred by OG&E as a direct consequence of the termination, including costs for claims arising out of the termination of subcontracts and costs incurred in assisting OG&E and OMPA by preserving and protecting work in progress.

(c) If so elected by a party and the other party agrees in writing, a dispute shall be arbitrated in accordance with the following procedures:

(1) At the request of either party upon written notice to that effect to the other party (a “Demand”), the dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, except as modified herein. The Demand must include statements of the facts and circumstances surrounding the dispute, the legal obligation breached by the other party, the amount in controversy and the requested relief accompanied by all relevant documents supporting the Demand.

The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.

(3) Each party shall select one arbitrator within ten days of the receipt of the Demand, or if such party to the dispute fails to make such selection within ten days from the receipt of the Demand, the AAA shall make such appointment. The two arbitrators thus appointed shall select the third arbitrator, who shall act as the chairman of the panel. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on a third arbitrator within 30 days of the selection of the second arbitrator, the AAA shall make such appointment.

(4) The award shall be in writing (stating the award and the reasons therefor) and shall be final and binding upon the parties, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented to the arbitral panel. The arbitral panel shall be authorized in its discretion to grant pre-award and post-award interest at commercial rates. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings, the parties hereby agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the United States federal courts located in, and the local courts of, the State of Oklahoma. Each of the parties irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the jurisdiction of such courts or the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at its address set forth herein and agrees that its submission to jurisdiction and its consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other party.

(5) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties shall remain in full force and effect pending the award in any arbitration proceeding hereunder.

(6) Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrators, each party shall bear its own costs and fees, including attorneys’ fees and expenses. The parties expressly agree that the arbitrators shall have no power to consider or award any form of damages barred by Section 5.10, or any other multiple or enhanced damages, whether statutory or common law.

(7) The parties, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby irrevocably waive and exclude any rights of application or appeal or rights to state a special case for the opinion of the courts or any other recourse to the court system other than to enforce the agreement to arbitrate pursuant to this Section 3.13(c) for attachment or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings or to enforce the award of the arbitral panel.

(8) During the pendency of any dispute, the parties shall continue to perform the obligations imposed upon them under this Agreement to the fullest extent possible, consistent with their positions in dispute.

6.02 Performance During Dispute . During the pendency of any dispute, the parties shall continue to perform the obligations imposed upon them under this Agreement to the fullest extent possible, consistent with their positions in dispute.

	OMPA:		23.0%
	OG&E:		77.0%

Each Owner’s undivided interest in the Owned Assets, as it may change from time to time as provided herein, is referred to herein as its “ Ownership Ratio .” Ownership Ratios may be modified only as provided in Sections 2.04 , 6.01(b) and 8.02(a) .

(b) Owners shall have the right to schedule and receive the Net Available Output of the Power Plant in the same percentages as their Ownership Ratios, subject to the Schedule and Exchange Agreement.

2.02 Changes in Ratios . Any changes in Ownership Ratios shall be given effect as provided pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement without any further act, except such regulatory approval(s) as may be required.

2.03 Waiver of Partition . The Owners expressly waive any right of partition with respect to the Owned Assets, whether by partition in kind or sale and division of the proceeds thereof, until the end of Power Plant operations as described in Section 6.02 .

The Operator shall report to the Executive Committee and shall be responsible for the day-to-day oversight and coordination of matters relating to the operation and maintenance of the Power Plant and such other matters as may be delegated to the Operator by the Executive Committee.

(b) Composition of Executive Committee . Each Owner shall appoint one representative to the Executive Committee (each such representative, a “ Member ”). Each Member shall have a single vote equal to the Ownership Ratio of the Owner that appointed such Member. Each Member on the Executive Committee shall hold office until death, resignation or removal at the pleasure of the Owner that appointed such Member to the Executive Committee. If a vacancy occurs on the Executive Committee, the Owner that appointed such vacating

Member shall appoint a successor. Each Owner may also designate an alternate who shall be authorized to act in the absence of the Executive Committee representative or representatives for whom he or she is an alternate. Each alternate shall also hold office until death, resignation or removal at the pleasure of the appointing Owner. The initial Members and alternates on the Executive Committee and their successors shall be appointed by the respective Owners by written notice to the other Owners. No Executive Committee Member or alternate shall be entitled to compensation or reimbursement of expenses from the Owners for attendance at such meetings. Owners also may vote by one or more other proxies authorized by a written appointment of proxy signed by the Owner or by an Owner’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact and delivered to the Executive Committee for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the Executive Committee’s records. In the event that any Owner ceases to be an Owner for any reason whatsoever, the Member on the Executive Committee appointed by such Owner shall immediately cease to be a Member thereof.

(c) Executive Committee Meetings . The Executive Committee shall hold regular meetings quarterly on the date established from time to time by the Executive Committee. Between regular meetings, the chairman of the Executive Committee may call special meetings upon three days’ written notice to all Members, or upon such shorter telephonic notices the chairman determines is appropriate to respond to emergency situations.

(d) Powers and Duties of Executive Committee . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Facility Operating Agreement, the Executive Committee shall have full power and complete authority to make all decisions and manage and direct all aspects of the operation and maintenance of the Power Plant, including with respect to enforcement of any contractual rights in respect of the Power Plant, appointment of the Operator, entering into amendments or modifications to the Facility Operating Agreement and agreeing to the terms and conditions of any similar agreements with any replacement Operator. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.03(g), the Executive Committee may delegate such of its authorities and responsibilities to an Owner, or officer or employee of any Owner, or other party as the Executive Committee may elect, including, without limitation, the Operator. The Owners hereby consent to the exercise by such Persons of the powers contemplated by this Agreement and to the employment, when and if the same is deemed necessary or advisable, of such brokers, agents, accountants, attorneys and other advisors as such Persons may determine to be appropriate for the management of the Owned Assets.

(e) Powers and Duties of Chairman . The chairman of the Executive Committee shall be elected by the Executive Committee and shall be responsible for (i) providing notice of meetings to all Members, (ii) preparing an agenda for all meetings in consultation with the Operator, (iii) setting the times for approval of certain actions or decisions, which shall be not less than three days except in case of matters which in the chairman’s judgment require emergency action or decision, (iv) presiding over all meetings and directing the order of business and procedures thereof; (v) arranging for the keeping of the minutes of all

meetings and the distribution thereof to all Members and (vi) taking such other action with respect to meetings of the Executive Committee as may seem necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the chairman.

Matters not disapproved by a Member of the Executive Committee within the time after submission specified in the submittal, which shall not be less than specified in this Agreement (or if no time is specified in this Agreement, then within seven (7) calendar days) shall be deemed approved by such Member. No Member shall disapprove (i) matters which were submitted to the Executive Committee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and not disapproved within the time allowed, (ii) items found by an arbitrator pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions hereof to be or have been consistent with Prudent Operating Practices, (iii) items where costs were borne solely by another Owner or the Operator individually, or (iv) items recommended by the chairman or the Operator having a total cost to all Owners in the aggregate of less than $70,000.

(g) Supermajority Matters . The following matters when submitted to the Executive Committee shall require the approval of a Supermajority of Members:

(i) except to the extent that the then current Operating & Maintenance Agreements otherwise provide, (A) the termination of such Operating & Maintenance Agreements, (B) any material amendment to any of the Operating & Maintenance Agreements, or (C) the approval of new Operating & Maintenance Agreements or the replacement or appointment of the Operator (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed by any Owner, which approval of a proposed replacement Operator shall not be withheld by any Owner if such replacement Operator is a qualified operator of gas-fired combined cycle facilities with similar technology as the Power Plant);

(ii) Elective Capital Additions requiring a total cost to all Owners in the aggregate in excess of $10,000,000; provided , however , that approval of a Supermajority of Members will not be required with respect to any such Elective Capital Additions if (A) the Owner(s) consenting to the Elective Capital Additions agree to bear all Costs of Capital Additions with respect thereto and (B) the carrying out of such Elective Capital Additions will not unreasonably interfere with the ability of non-consenting Owner(s) to obtain its or their Ownership Ratio of Net Available Output; provided , further , that all Elective Capital Additions requiring a total cost to all Owners in the aggregate of less or equal to $10,000,000 and all other Elective Capital Additions that have been approved by a Supermajority of Members in accordance with this Section 3.03(g) shall be deemed Capital Additions for purposes of this Agreement;

(iii) a decision to settle Third Party Claims where the uninsured portion of any such claim exceeds $10,000,000;

(iv) a decision to end Power Plant operations as provided in Section 6.02 ; and

(v) proposals to change any of the terms of this Section 3.03(g) .

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as OMPA is an Owner and any bonds or other securities, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and which were issued or are to be issued to finance or refinance the acquisition of OMPA’s undivided interest in the Power Plant, remain outstanding, no Facility Operating Agreement shall include any provision that OMPA determines, on the basis of an opinion of counsel, could adversely affect the exclusion from gross income, for federal income tax purposes, of the interest on such bonds or other securities issued or to be issued by OMPA in such financing or refinancing.

(i) Deadlock . In the event that (i) there are only two Owners (for purposes of this Section 3.03(i) a Person and all of its Affiliates shall be treated as a single Owner) or if there are more than two Owners, one Owner and its Affiliates has an Ownership Ratio of more than 50%, (ii) the Members representing such Owners disagree with respect to the resolution of any matter requiring the approval of a Supermajority of Members as provided in Section 3.03(g)(i) or Section 3.03(g)(ii) (but only if such Elective Capital Additions will benefit all Owners in proportion to their Ownership Ratios), and (iii) the respective senior management representatives of the Owners have not resolved such disagreement within thirty (30) days of a written notice from an Owner requesting such resolution (“ Resolution Deadline ”), then (A) the dispute resolution procedures of Section 9.02 hereof shall not apply to such disagreement (but will continue to apply with respect to any dispute concerning the application of this subsection (i) or the interpretation thereof), and (B) any Owner may, provided such Owner is not then a defaulting Owner hereunder, by written notice (“ Buy-Sell Notice ”) to the other Owners within 15 days after the Resolution Deadline initiate the following procedure (“ Buy-Sell Procedure ”) with respect to offers to buy and sell each Owner’s respective interests in the Power Plant (the “ Interests ”). If no Owner initiates the Buy-Sell Procedure by timely delivery of a Buy-Sell Notice, the disagreement may be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the disposition by OG&E of all, or substantially all, of its ownership interests in the Power Plant, any disagreement among the Owners as to the qualification of any replacement Operator proposed in connection with such disposition shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 9.02 , rather than the Buy-Sell Procedure.

(1) Within 15 days of the date of delivery of the Buy-Sell Notice, the initiating Owner (the “ Initiating Owner ”) shall submit to all of the other Owners (each, a “ Receiving Owner ”) an offer in writing which shall be an offer to purchase all of the Interests of the Receiving Owners for the price, per 1% of Ownership Ratio, set forth in the offer. Such offer shall be irrevocable for a period of 15 days from the date of submission to the Receiving Owners (“ Offer Period ”).

(2) Prior to the end of the Offer Period, each Receiving Owner must either (A) accept in writing the Initiating Owner’s offer, or (B) make a counteroffer (irrevocable for a period of 15 days from the date of submission thereof) to purchase all of the Interests of the

other Owners for a price per 1% of Ownership Ratio that exceeds the offered price per 1% of Ownership Ratio by at least 5% of the offered price. If a Receiving Owner makes a counteroffer pursuant to this Section 3.03(i)(2) , the counteroffer shall be treated as an offer made pursuant to Section 3.03(i)(1) hereof initiating a new Offer Period, the Owner making such counteroffer shall be treated as the Initiating Owner, and the Owners receiving the counteroffer shall be treated as, and have the rights of, the Receiving Owners pursuant to this Section 3.03(i)(2) to either accept the counteroffer or make a new counteroffer.

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the end of any Offer Period, any Receiving Owner may terminate the Buy-Sell Procedure with respect to its Interest in the Power Plant by acquiescing in writing in all respects to the position of the then Initiating Owner with respect to the matter or matters then in dispute. If as a result of such acquiescence, such matter or matters are approved by a Supermajority of Members, the Buy-Sell Procedure shall be terminated in respect of all Owners and the matter or matters in question shall be deemed to have been approved by a Supermajority of Members. If such acquiescence does not result in the approval of such matter or matters by a Supermajority of Members, the Buy-Sell Procedure shall continue but the then Initiating Owner’s offer shall not apply to the acquiescing Owner, which shall not be considered to be a Receiving Owner with respect to such offer.

(4) Failure by a Receiving Owner to accept an offer, make a conforming counteroffer or acquiesce in respect of the matter or matters then in dispute as provided herein by the end of an Offer Period shall constitute acceptance of the last conforming offer made. Within 30 days after acceptance in writing or the end of an Offer Period resulting in deemed acceptance of an offer by all of the Receiving Owners, the Owners shall enter into an asset purchase agreement with respect to the Interests being purchased which shall have customary terms and conditions mutually agreed to by the parties thereto and provided that (A) the purchase price shall be payable entirely in cash in immediately available funds as of the closing under such asset purchase agreement, (B) the Interests shall be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances (other than Permitted Liens), including, without limitation, any obligations in respect to the Capacity or Energy produced by the Power Plant, and (C) the termination of this Agreement and the Facility Operating Agreement shall be a condition precedent to the closing of such asset purchase agreement.

3.04 Payment of Expenses: Operating Budget .

(a) Except as provided in this Section 3.04(a) , each Owner shall be fully and individually responsible for the timely payment of its Ownership Ratio of all Costs of Operation (adjusted, to the extent applicable, for payments by Owner’s of their Variable Operating Maintenance Share), all Costs of Capital Additions and, to the extent applicable, each Owner’s Variable Operating Maintenance Share. Furthermore, each Owner shall be fully and individually responsible for the timely payment of its Power Plant Fuel Costs in accordance with the Fuel Agreement or pursuant to agreements individually entered into by such Owner for the supply, transportation and/or storage of fuel to be used on behalf of such Owner in the Power Plant. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(1) If the then current Operating & Maintenance Agreements provide for the direct allocation of amounts payable thereunder to one or more of the Owners, the terms of the Operating & Maintenance Agreements shall control with respect to such amounts.

(2) Except as otherwise agreed to, costs payable hereunder or under the Operating & Maintenance Agreements shall include only actual costs without markup.

(3) Each Owner shall be fully and individually responsible for the payment of its own financing costs and Taxes whether arising in connection with this Agreement, the Power Plant or otherwise.

(4) OG&E will, upon the Power Plant Closing, make necessary and appropriate transmission system upgrades and improvements when OG&E deems necessary to the transmission system to accommodate the full capacity output of the Power Plant, and OG&E agrees that none of the costs and expenses associated with such additional transmission system upgrades and improvements shall be allocated to OMPA under the Operating & Maintenance Agreements. The transmission system upgrades and improvement shall inure to the benefit of all Owners in proportion to their respective Ownership Interests, but shall at all times be the property of OG&E and be subject to being included as part of subsequent Open Access Transmission Tariff charges to third parties, including OMPA. The transmission system upgrades and improvements are expected to be completed and in service at the end of eighteen (18) months following the Power Plant Closing.

(b) On or before October 1 of each year, commencing 2004, the Operator will provide to the Executive Committee a reasonable estimate of the operating budget (the “ Budget Estimate ”) for the next year. On or before November 15 of each year, commencing 2004, the Executive Committee shall prepare (based on the Budget Estimate) and approve an operating budget (the “ Operating Budget ”) for the next calendar year. The Operating Budget for calendar year 2004 shall be prepared and approved by the Executive Committee within 30 days after execution of this Agreement. The Operating Budget shall contain the Executive Committee’s reasonable estimate of all costs and expenses incurred each month for the operation and maintenance of the Power Plant, including without limitation, estimated amounts payable under the Facility Operating Agreement, fuel costs and budgeted capital expenditures. The Executive Committee may amend the Operating Budget from time to time.

(c) Within fifteen days of receipt of an invoice therefor from the Operator, each Owner shall pay the Operator such Owner’s Ownership Ratio of the actual Costs of Operation and Costs of Capital Additions, provided , however , if such costs exceed any line item in the Operating Budget by more than 10%, no Owner shall be obligated to pay any such amount until such amount is approved by the Executive Committee by means of an amendment to the Operating Budget.

3.05 Claims Treated as Costs of Operation . Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Owners shall be responsible for any and all Claims of Persons who are not Owners arising from or related in any way to the Power Plant in proportion to their Ownership Ratio.

3.06 Books and Records . Operator shall keep, in conformity with all requirements of Law, proper books, records, accounts, ledgers, time cards, estimates, schedules, correspondence and other documents related to the Operator’s performance of its obligations hereunder and amounts due to the Operator under any Facility Operating Agreement. During ordinary business hours and upon reasonable notice to Operator, each Owner may inspect, copy and audit such books and records. Operator agrees to keep such books and records for five years following their respective preparation (at which time it will be permitted to destroy such books and records in the ordinary course of business) and will furthermore keep any such books and records not previously destroyed in the ordinary course of business, for five years after the termination of this Agreement, and shall provide copies thereof to each Owner upon request, at such requesting Owner’s expense. The acceptance, approval or payment by any Owner of the Operator’s charges in complying with such request shall not operate as a waiver of such Owner’s right to audit the Operator in accordance with this Section 3.06 .

3.07 Fuel Supply . Each Owner is individually responsible for the supply, transfer and/or storage of fuel (including, without limitation, any imbalance services associated therewith) used or to be used in connection with operation of the Power Plant to produce Energy for the account of such Owner. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, OG&E and OMPA entered into the Fuel Agreement pursuant to which OG&E exclusively provides fuel and imbalance services to OMPA as of the effective date thereof, responsibility for which services shall automatically revert to OMPA upon termination of said Fuel Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

ALLOCATION AND SCHEDULING OF NET AVAILABLE OUTPUT

4.01 Allocation of Net Available Output .

(a) Subject to the Schedule and Exchange Agreement, scheduling procedures hereof and the availability of the Power Plant, each Owner shall be entitled to schedule and take all or any part (in accordance with Exhibit B, II, C) hereto) of its Ownership Ratio of the Net Available Output of the Power Plant.

(b) Except as otherwise agreed to, each Owner shall be solely responsible for all costs, penalties or damages caused to the Operator if an Owner fails to make available the supply, transportation and/or storage of fuel required to meet such Owner’s scheduled Net Available Output of the Power Plant, and if fuel is not actually received from other sources, such Owner shall not be entitled to the scheduled Net Available Output of the Power Plant to which it would otherwise be entitled to the extent of such unavailability.

4.02 Scheduling of Net Available Output . The Owners shall schedule their entitlement to Net Available Output in accordance with the operating procedures set forth in Exhibit B hereto.

ARTICLE V

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

5.01 Limitation of Liability . THE EXPRESS REMEDIES AND MEASURES OF DAMAGES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR AN OWNER HEREUNDER AND ALL OTHER REMEDIES OR DAMAGES AT LAW OR IN EQUITY ARE WAIVED. IF NO REMEDY OR MEASURE OF DAMAGES IS EXPRESSLY HEREIN PROVIDED, AN OWNER MAY, SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS OF THE NEXT SENTENCE HEREOF, RECOVER SUCH REMEDIES, INCLUDING DAMAGES AND FEES AND EXPENSES OF ATTORNEYS AS MAY BE AVAILABLE AT LAW OR EQUITY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, HOWEVER, NO OWNER SHALL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, WHETHER BY STATUTE, IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. THE LIMITATIONS HEREIN IMPOSED ON REMEDIES AND THE MEASURE OF DAMAGES SHALL BE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CAUSE OR CAUSES RELATED THERETO, INCLUDING THE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY OWNER. TO THE EXTENT ANY DAMAGES REQUIRED TO BE PAID HEREUNDER ARE LIQUIDATED, THE OWNERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE DAMAGES ARE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE, OTHERWISE OBTAINING AN ADEQUATE REMEDY IS INCONVENIENT AND THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES CONSTITUTE A REASONABLE APPROXIMATION OF THE HARM OR LOSS.

ARTICLE VI

DAMAGE TO POWER PLANT; END OF OPERATIONS

6.01 Damage to, or Condemnation of, the Power Plant .

(a) In the event that the Power Plant suffers damage resulting from causes other than ordinary wear, tear or deterioration, or to the extent any Taking affects the Power Plant, to the extent that the estimated uninsured or uncompensated cost of repair as determined by the Executive Committee, or, if a Majority of Members cannot agree within a period of six (6) months from the date of damage, as determined by the arbitrator pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions hereof; is less than or equal to $10 million, and if the Executive Committee does not determine that the operations of the Power Plant shall be ended pursuant to Section 6.02 , the Executive Committee shall promptly cause the Operator to submit a revised Operating Budget and shall proceed to cause the repair of the Power Plant, and each Owner shall pay as budgeted, into a separate trust account, its Ownership Ratio of the estimated uninsured or uncompensated cost thereof.

(b) If the Power Plant suffers damage or a Taking to the extent that the estimated uninsured or uncompensated cost of repair exceeds $10 million as determined in accordance with Section 6.01(a) the Executive Committee shall, or, if a Majority of Members cannot agree within six (6) months from the date of damage, the arbitrator shall, determine the estimated value of the Power Plant as and when repaired. Thereafter, each Owner which, within

a reasonable time to be determined by the Executive Committee, gives notice in writing to the other Owners of its desire that the Power Plant be repaired, shall, in the proportion that its Ownership Ratio bears to the total of the Ownership Ratio of all Owners giving such notice, pay into the separate trust account, as budgeted in a revised budget, all of the estimated uninsured or uncompensated cost of repair. If any Owner has given such a notice, the Ownership Ratio of each Owner which did not give such a notice shall, at the end of the reasonable time which was determined by the Executive Committee, be reduced to the extent determined by the following formula:

O 2	=	O 1	x	V - (C - I)
				V

where
V C I	= = =	Estimated value of the Power Plant as repaired Estimated cost of repair Estimated insurance or compensation proceeds, if any, inuring to the benefit of all Owners (shall not include insurance or compensation proceeds to which only individual Owners are entitled)
O 1 O 2	= =	Ownership Ratio prior to loss Reduced Ownership Ratio

At the same time, the amount of such reductions shall be added to the Ownership Ratio of the Owners giving such notice in the proportion that the Ownership Ratio of each bears to the total of the Ownership Ratios of all Owners giving such notice.

(c) If the Power Plant suffers damage to the extent that the estimated uninsured or uncompensated cost of repair as determined in Section 6.01(a) exceeds $10 million and no Owner gives the notice required by Section 6.01(b) , the damaged Power Plant shall not be repaired. If portions of the Power Plant are still capable of economically generating electricity, then the Executive Committee shall cause the Operator to implement the procedures specified in Section 6.02 with respect to the damaged facilities only and continue to operate the remaining facilities. If no portion of the Power Plant is still capable of economically generating electricity, then the Executive Committee shall cause the Operator to end Power Plant operations pursuant to Section 6.02 .

(d) In the case of repair of the Power Plant pursuant to Sections 6.01(a) or (b) , all proceeds of insurance and condemnation awards shall first be applied to repair of the Power Plant, with any excess being distributed to the Owners in accordance with their Ownership Ratios.

6.02 End of Power Plant Operations . When the Power Plant can no longer be made capable, consistent with Prudent Operating Practices, of producing electricity or cannot obtain required permits, or when the Owners otherwise agree to end Power Plant operations by the

approval of a Supermajority of Members, the Executive Committee shall cause the Operator to sell for removal all salable parts of the Power Plant to the highest bidder(s). Each Owner shall bear its Ownership Ratio of all costs of termination of Power Plant operations, including the costs of decommissioning, razing all structures and disposing of the debris and meeting all requirements of Applicable Law. Each Owner shall receive its Ownership Ratio of any proceeds resulting from the liquidation by the Operator of the Power Plant pursuant to this Section 6.02 only after the payment of all costs of termination of Power Plant operations, including payment of any expenses authorized by the Executive Committee.

6.03 Insurance .

(a) The Executive Committee shall establish the types, limits and deductibles of insurance purchased for the Power Plant by OG&E on behalf of the Owners, which insurance shall at a minimum provide the coverages set forth in Schedule 6.03 hereto or as required by law.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed by the Executive Committee, all insurance shall be for the benefit of all Owners in accordance with their Ownership Ratios. In the event that any Owner acquires separate insurance covering its interest in the Power Plant, such policies shall be appropriately endorsed to provide waivers of subrogation to OG&E and all other Owners in order to prevent subrogation or the holding of OG&E or any other Owners responsible for losses.

ARTICLE VII

TERM AND TERMINATION

7.01 Term . This Agreement shall become effective, and amend and restate and supercede in its entirety the Original Agreement, upon the Power Plant Closing (the “ Effective Date ”). The term of this Agreement (“ Term ”) shall be from the Effective Date through the date of the end of Power Plant operations as provided in Section 6.02 or the date of any earlier termination of this Agreement by the mutual written agreement of the Owners (the “ Termination Date ”), provided that the Owners shall comply with any orders of any Governmental Authority with respect to any earlier termination and the costs of such compliance shall be borne by the Owners at that time in accordance with their Ownership Ratios.

7.02 Termination . This Agreement shall not be subject to termination by any party or Owner prior to the Termination Date except as expressly provided in Section 7.01 . Each of the Owners, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, waives all rights now or hereafter existing, conferred by statute, common law or otherwise to quit, terminate or surrender this Agreement, other than any rights or obligations which may have accrued to such Owner, or to which such Owner may have become subject, hereunder prior to such termination.

ARTICLE VIII

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

8.01 Default .

(a) Upon failure of an Owner to make any payment when due, fulfill any covenant, or, except as excused by Force Majeure, perform any material obligation of an Owner herein, any other Owner may make written demand upon said Owner.

(b) If the failure of an Owner is to make a payment when due, such failure shall immediately constitute a default; provided that, for the first two times that written demand pursuant to Section 8.01(a) is made upon such Owner, such failure to make payment when due shall not constitute a default if such nonpayment is cured within 15 calendar days from the date of the demand pursuant to Section 8.01(a) .

(c) If the failure of an Owner is to fulfill any covenant or to perform any other material obligation, and if such failure is not cured within 30 days from the date of such demand, it shall, at the expiration of such period, constitute a default.

(d) If an Owner in good faith disputes the existence or extent of a failure described in Section 8.01(a) , it shall, within the applicable period given to it in Sections 8.01(b) or (c) , nonetheless make such payment or perform such obligation under written protest directed to the Owners. Such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures provided for herein.

8.02 Remedies .

(a) If a default is limited to a failure of the defaulting Owner to make payments, the defaulting Owner’s Ownership Ratio of Net Available Output may, subject to rights of the then non-defaulting Owner(s) under the Market Dispatch Agreement and the Schedule and Exchange Agreement, be sold during the period of default for the benefit of the defaulting Owner (to third parties or other Owner(s)) and the proceeds applied to the amounts owed by such Owner; provided that the non-defaulting Owner(s) shall have no obligation to engage in any such sales. Payments not made when due may be advanced by the other Owner(s) and, if so advanced, shall bear interest until paid at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. (or its successor) plus 5% or the highest lawful rate, whichever is lower. If a payment default (including accrued interest thereon) has not been brought current by the defaulting Owner by the 90th day following the original due date of such amount, then, in lieu of receiving a cash payment from the defaulting Owner therefor, any non-defaulting Owner may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, elect by 30 days’ prior written notice to the defaulting Owner to increase its respective Ownership Ratio (and the Ownership Ratio of the defaulting Owner shall be correspondingly reduced) according to the following formula:

	Increased Interest = SI x		A
			TV

where

means the defaulting Owner's then current Ownership Ratio;

		A		means the aggregate amount then owed by such defaulting Owner; and
		TV		means the product of such defaulting Owner's then current Ownership Ratio multiplied by the weighted average of the purchase price paid by all Owners for their respective Ownership Ratio.

If more than one Owner elects to increase its Ownership Ratio in lieu of receiving a cash payment from the defaulting Owner, the increases shall be apportioned on a pro rata basis among the prior Ownership Ratios of the electing Owners. No Owner shall be required to elect to increase its Ownership Ratio in lieu of receiving a cash payment from a defaulting Owner hereunder.

(b) If a default involves the failure of a defaulting Owner to fulfill any covenant or to perform any other material obligation, the defaulting Owner’s Ownership Ratio of Net Available Output may, subject to rights of the then non-defaulting Owner(s) under the Market Dispatch Agreement and the Schedule and Exchange Agreement, be used or sold by the non-defaulting Owner(s) as it may in its sole discretion determine during the period of such default, and the value thereof, calculated as the Variable Cost of producing the Energy actually generated from such Net Available Output, shall be credited to any actual damages incurred by the non-defaulting Owner(s) as a result of such failure or non-performance; provided that the non-defaulting Owner(s) shall have no obligation to so use or sell the defaulting Owner’s Ownership Ratio of Net Available Output.

(c) In addition to the rights granted in this Section 8.02 , any non-defaulting Owner may seek injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce a defaulting Owner’s obligation under this Agreement; provided that all claims to recover damages or payments on account of any default hereunder shall proceed pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures provided herein.

Furthermore, all accounts payable currently owed by OMPA to NRG McClain under the Original Agreement, to the extent resulting from operation of the Power Plant prior to the Power Plant Closing, remain payable to NRG McClain. For purpose of clarification, this provision is strictly limited to contractual obligations under the Original Agreement and OG&E and OMPA agree that it does not create any obligations or liabilities of OG&E originated under the Original Agreement for claims based in tort, equity or otherwise.

Daily Dispatching Procedure

Prior to 0800 central prevailing time on the business day (Weekends and Monday deliveries will require notification by the Friday preceding the date power is taken; NERC holidays or the next day after a holiday will require notification by the first business day preceding a holiday) prior to energy delivery, OG&E shall advise OMPA (i) what OMPA’s Ownership Ratio of the Net Available Output is expected to be, (ii) whether OG&E will exercise its rights under the Schedule and Exchange Agreement and (iii) whether OG&E expects to run the Power Plant or not. If OG&E’s preliminary decision is not to run the plant, OMPA and OG&E shall agree on a preliminary dispatch cost of the plant. The preliminary dispatch cost will be calculated using an estimated gas cost, and estimated heat rate of 7,500 Btu/kwh, and an operation and maintenance cost of $2.00/MWh. OMPA shall use the mutually agreed estimated cost in making its unit commitment decisions for the day in question.

Prior to 0830 central prevailing time on the business day (Weekends and Monday deliveries will require notification by the Friday preceding the date power is taken; NERC holidays or the next day after a holiday will require notification by the first business day preceding a holiday) prior to energy delivery, OMPA shall provide OG&E with a preliminary schedule of energy requirements which will include: quantity, time and any delivery point requirements.

If OG&E decides not to dispatch the Power Plant, it will notify OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E) prior to 0830 central prevailing time on the day prior to energy delivery. In such event, OG&E shall, at the request of OMPA, sell power to OMPA pursuant to the Market Dispatch Sale Agreement under the OG&E market-based rate tariff under the rates, terms and conditions agreed to thereunder.

D)	By 1130, central prevailing time on the business day prior to energy delivery, OG&E will provide OMPA with a written confirmation of OMPA’s schedule which will include: Quantity, time and anticipated delivery points.

E)	By 1130 central prevailing time on the business day prior to Energy delivery from the Power Plant, OG&E will provide OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E) with a written confirmation of OMPA’s fuel nomination which will include: Quantity and time of delivery.

III.

Restart

If OG&E provides power from alternate energy sources and decides to restart the Power Plant after the dispatch notification time period:

A)	OG&E will notify OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E) that it has elected to restart the Power Plant.

If energy delivery from alternate resources is in progress, OG&E will have full rights to the ramp energy (the energy produced from the time start up commences until the earlier of (1) the time that OMPA’s pro rata share of the Energy produced is equal to the replacement Energy, or (2) the time that the Power Plant reaches its then available capacity as set forth in a written notice from OG&E to OMPA and its designated fuel supplier.

OG&E will notify OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E) of resource changes at the occurrence of the earlier of (1) the time that OMPA’s pro rata share of the Energy produced is equal to the replacement Energy, or (2) the time that the Power Plant reaches its then available capacity as set forth in a written notice from OG&E to OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E).

IV.

Intraday Changes

A)	If the Power Plant is on-line:

Intraday changes to the schedule will be allowed provided that notification is made at least one (1) hour prior to the implementation of the schedule change. OMPA cannot request a change in schedule that will require the Power Plant to run outside prudent operating parameters, such as ramp rate and minimum operating load.

B)	If OMPA is being served from alternate energy sources and the Power Plant is not on-line;

No intraday changes will be allowed, except by mutual agreement.

OMPA can elect to market excess energy on a real time basis.

C)	If OMPA is being served from alternate energy sources and the Power Plant is on-line due to a restart:

OMPA will not be allowed to reduce the scheduled quantities or change the scheduled delivery point, except by mutual agreement.

OMPA can elect to market energy on a real time basis.

If OMPA is receiving less than its Ownership Ratio equivalent of the Power Plant’s output from an alternate source, it can request additional energy up to a total delivered energy amount equivalent to its Ownership Ratio equivalent of the Power Plant’s output.

If OMPA is receiving its Ownership Ratio equivalent of the Power Plant’s output from an alternate energy source, it can elect to purchase energy from the Power Plant at the prevailing market price provided that notification is made at least one (1) hour prior to the implementation of the schedule change.

D)	In the event that the Power Plant were to experience a transient event which results in a schedule curtailment, OG&E will notify OMPA and its designated fuel supplier (if other than OG&E) within fifteen minutes after the event occurs.

1.02 Payments for Service . OG&E shall invoice OMPA monthly for OMPA’s Ownership Ratio of the costs of the services provided by OG&E as Operator pursuant to Section 1.01 above and for OMPA’s Ownership Ratio of the costs for any services that will be provided with respect to the Transmission Assets pursuant to a separate maintenance contract or contracts with a supplier which is unaffiliated with OG&E or OMPA.
