OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY
Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company, an Oklahoma corporation (the "Company")
incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Territory of Oklahoma, is an electric
public utility company with its principal executive offices located at 101 North
Robinson, P.O. Box 321, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73101-0321. Telephone (405)
553-3000.
The Company is the largest operating electric utility in Oklahoma. The
Company owns and operates an interconnected electric production, transmission
and distribution system which includes eight active generating stations with a
total capability of 5,637,300 kilowatts. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary,
Enogex Inc., owns and operates more than 3,000 miles of natural gas transmission
and gathering pipeline and, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, has interests
in four gas processing plants, markets natural gas and natural gas products and
invests in the exploration and production of natural gas. (See "Restructuring"
below.) The Company furnishes retail electric service in 270 communities and
contiguous rural and suburban territories in Oklahoma and western Arkansas
(population served estimated by the Company at 1,400,000). It also sells
electric energy at wholesale for resale in six communities and to two rural
electric cooperatives in those states. The area served by the Company embraces
approximately 30,000 square miles, which includes Oklahoma City, the largest
city in Oklahoma, and the section of Arkansas in the general area of Ft. Smith,
the second largest city in Arkansas. Of the total 276 communities served, 247
are located in Oklahoma and 29 in Arkansas. Approximately 91% of the Company's
electric operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 1994, was derived
from sales in Oklahoma and approximately 9% from sales in Arkansas.
RESTRUCTURING
The Company has proposed a corporate restructuring (the "Restructuring")
under which it will become the subsidiary of a newly-formed holding company (the
"Holding Company"), and the Company's Common Stock will be exchanged on a
share-for-share basis for Common Stock of the Holding Company. Following the
Restructuring, Enogex Inc. will become a direct subsidiary of the Holding
Company and will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company. The Company's Current
Report on Form 8-K dated August 3, 1995, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus,
includes pro forma financial information for the Company as of June 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994, and for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, after giving effect to the
Restructuring and the transfer by the Company of Enogex Inc. and its
subsidiaries ("Enogex") to the Holding Company as if they had occurred on
January 1, 1992. The Restructuring is subject to certain conditions, including
shareowner approval and the receipt of regulatory approvals. The Securities and
other outstanding indebtedness of the Company will not be transferred or
exchanged in the Restructuring and, following the Restructuring, will remain
direct obligations of the Company with the same terms as in effect immediately
prior to the Restructuring.
INFORMATION INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
The following documents, as filed by the Company with the Commission, are
incorporated herein by reference: (i) Form 10-K Annual Report of the Company for

USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to be received by the Company from the sale of the
Securities will be used (i) in connection with the payment at maturity or the
redemption, refunding, refinancing or purchase of certain currently outstanding
first mortgage bonds of the Company (the "Prior Securities") and (ii) for
general corporate purposes (including payment of short-term debt incurred to
finance construction expenditures and for issuance costs). The specific
allocation of the net proceeds of a particular series of Offered Securities and
information relating to the particular Prior Securities, if any, to be paid at
maturity, redeemed, refunded, refinanced or purchased will be described in the
Prospectus Supplement related thereto. Any Prior Securities purchased will be
purchased at a price not in excess of the then-current redemption price
applicable to such securities. In case of the redemption, refunding or purchase
of Prior Securities, proceeds of the Offered Securities may be applied to pay
any redemption premium or purchase price in excess of the principal amount.

Company as if they occurred at January 1, 1990.
The annual interest requirements on the long-term debt of the Company and
its subsidiaries outstanding at June 30, 1995, was $58,218,282. On a pro forma

1. Enogex's assets, liabilities, equity and results of operations have been
eliminated from consolidated Company amounts to reflect the transfer of
ownership and control of Enogex from the Company to the Holding Company.
2. After the transaction, the Company will not retain ownership of Enogex.
Consequently, intercompany transactions between the Company and Enogex have
not been eliminated in the pro forma financial statements.
The most significant intercompany transactions are transmission fees and
related charges to the Company from Enogex, whose core business has been to
transport natural gas to the Company power plants. The amount of these
charges were $44.6 million for the 12 months ended June 30, 1995; $44.8
million for the year ended December 31, 1994; $54.9 million for the year
ended December 31, 1993; and $55.0 million for the year ended December 31,
1992.

SECURITIES
The Securities may be issued in one or more series as first mortgage bonds
or as notes or debentures secured by the Company's first mortgage bonds or, in
the circumstances described under the caption "DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR NOTES --
Security; Release Date," as unsecured notes or debentures (such notes and
debentures are herein referred to as "Senior Notes"). In addition, following the
Release Date (as defined below), any outstanding Senior Notes that are secured
by the Company's first mortgage bonds when issued, will cease to be secured and
will become unsecured general obligations of the Company. Senior Notes will be
issued under an indenture (the "Senior Note Indenture"), the form of which is an
exhibit to the Registration Statement, between the Company and Boatmen's First
National Bank of Oklahoma, as trustee (the "Senior Note Trustee"), and are
described below under the caption "DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR NOTES"). First mortgage
bonds (the "New Bonds") will be issued under the Trust Indenture dated February
1, 1945 as heretofore supplemented and amended by supplemental trust indentures
and a new supplemental trust indenture for each such series of New Bonds all
from the Company to Boatmen's First National Bank of Oklahoma, as successor
trustee (such Trust Indenture, as supplemented and as to be supplemented, is
herein referred to as the "First Mortgage Indenture"). The New Bonds are
described below under the caption "FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AND FIRST MORTGAGE
INDENTURE."
There is no requirement, under either the Senior Note Indenture or the First
Mortgage Indenture (collectively, the "Indentures"), that future issues of debt
securities of the Company be issued under the Indentures, and the Company will
be free to employ other indentures or documentation, containing provisions
different from those included in the Indentures or applicable to one or more
issues of Securities, in connection with future issues of such other debt
securities.
DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR NOTES
GENERAL
The following summaries of certain provisions of the Senior Note Indenture
do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their
entirety by, all of the provisions of the Senior Note Indenture which is
incorporated herein by this reference and the form of which is an exhibit to the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. References to Section
numbers under this caption are references to the Section numbers of the Senior
Note Indenture.
Until the Release Date (as defined below), the Senior Notes will be secured
as to payment of principal and interest by one or more series of the Company's
first mortgage bonds issued, pledged and delivered by the Company to the Senior
Note Trustee. See "Security; Release Date." FOLLOWING THE RELEASE DATE, THE
SENIOR NOTES WILL CEASE TO BE SECURED AS TO THE PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND
INTEREST, WILL BECOME UNSECURED GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY AND WILL RANK
ON A PARITY WITH OTHER UNSECURED INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COMPANY. The Senior Note
Indenture provides that, in addition to the Senior Notes offered hereby,
additional Senior Notes may be issued thereunder, without limitation as to
aggregate principal amount, provided that, prior to the Release Date, the amount
of Senior Notes that may be issued cannot exceed the amount of first mortgage
bonds that the Company is able to issue under its First Mortgage Indenture. See
"FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AND FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE -- Issuance of Additional
Bonds." At June 30, 1995, the Company could issue $713 million of additional
first mortgage bonds at an assumed 8.5% interest rate.
The Senior Note Indenture provides that the Senior Notes will be issued in
one or more series, may be issued at various times, may have differing maturity
dates and may bear interest at differing rates. The Prospectus Supplement
applicable to each issue of Senior Notes will specify: (1) the designation and
aggregate principal amount of such Senior Notes; (2) the date on which such
Senior Notes will mature; (3) the interest rate or rates, or method of
calculation of such rate or rates, on such Senior Notes, and the date from which
such interest shall accrue; (4) the dates on which such interest will be
payable; (5) the record dates for payments of interest; (6) any redemption
terms; (7) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and
the terms and conditions upon which such
5
<PAGE>
Senior Notes may be repaid, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder
thereof; and (8) other specific terms applicable to such Senior Notes. Unless
otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Senior Notes
will be denominated in United States currency in minimum denominations of $1,000
and integral multiples thereof, except that the denomination of any Senior Note
issued in the form of a Global Security will not exceed $200,000,000 without the
approval of the Depository.
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, there
are no provisions in the Senior Note Indenture or the Senior Notes that require
the Company to redeem, or permit the holders to cause a redemption of, the
Senior Notes or that otherwise protect the holders in the event that the Company
incurs substantial additional indebtedness, whether or not in connection with a
change in control of the Company. However, any change in control transaction
that involves the incurrence of additional long-term indebtedness (as notes,
first mortgage bonds or otherwise) by the Company in such a transaction would
require approval of state utility regulatory authorities and, possibly, of
federal utility regulatory authorities. (See "OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY
-- Restructuring.") Management believes that such approvals would be unlikely in
any transaction that would result in the Company, or a successor to the Company,
having a highly leveraged capital structure.
REGISTRATION, TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
Senior Notes of any series will be exchangeable for other Senior Notes of
the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate
principal amount and tenor. (Section 2.06)
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Senior
Notes may be presented for registration of transfer (duly endorsed or
accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer), at the office of
the Senior Note Trustee and maintained for such purpose with respect to any
series of Senior Notes and referred to in the applicable Prospectus Supplement,
without service charge and upon payment of any taxes and other governmental
charges as described in the Senior Note Indenture. Such transfer or exchange
will be effected upon being satisfied with the documents of title and indemnity
of the person making the request. (Section 2.06 and 2.07)
In the event of any redemption of Senior Notes of any series, the Trustee
will not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Senior Notes of
such series selected, called or being called for redemption except, in the case
of any Senior Note to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be so
redeemed. (Section 2.06) See "BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
PAYMENT AND PAYING AGENTS
Principal of and interest and premium, if any, on Senior Notes issued in the
form of Global Securities will be paid in the manner described below under the
caption "BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM." Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement, interest on Senior Notes that are in the form of
certificated securities will be paid by check mailed to the person entitled
thereto at such person's address at it appears in the register for the Senior
Notes maintained by the Senior Note Trustee; however, a holder of Senior Notes
of one or more series under the Senior Note Indenture in the aggregate principal
amount of $10,000,000 or more having the same interest payment dates will be
entitled to receive payments of interest by wire transfer of immediately
available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received by
the Senior Note Trustee on or prior to the applicable regular record date.
(Section 2.12) Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement, the principal of, and interest at maturity and premium, if any, on
Senior Notes in the form of certificated securities will be payable in
immediately available funds at the office of the Senior Note Trustee. (Section
2.12)
All monies paid by the Company to a paying agent for the payment of
principal of, interest or premium, if any, on any Senior Note which remain
unclaimed at the end of two years after such
6
<PAGE>
principal, interest or premium shall have become due and payable will be repaid
to the Company and the holder of such Senior Note will thereafter look only to
the Company for payment thereof. (Section 5.04)
SECURITY; RELEASE DATE
Until the Release Date (as defined below), the Senior Notes will be secured
as to payment of principal and interest by one or more series of the Company's
first mortgage bonds (see "FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AND FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE")
issued, pledged and delivered by the Company to the Senior Note Trustee ("Senior
Note Mortgage Bonds"). Each series of Senior Note Mortgage Bonds will have the
same stated rate or rates of interest (or interest calculated in the same
manner), payment dates, maturity dates and redemption provisions as the Senior
Notes which they secure. Satisfaction of the Company's obligations with respect
to principal of, and interest on, the Senior Notes will satisfy the Company's
obligations with respect to principal of, and interest on, the Senior Note
Mortgage Bonds securing such Senior Notes. (Section 4.11) THE RELEASE DATE WILL
BE THE DATE THAT ALL FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS ("FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS") OF THE
COMPANY ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING UNDER THE FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE (OTHER THAN
SENIOR NOTE MORTGAGE BONDS) HAVE BEEN RETIRED (AT, BEFORE OR AFTER THE MATURITY
THEREOF) THROUGH PAYMENT OR REDEMPTION (INCLUDING THOSE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
DEEMED TO BE PAID WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE). FROM AND
AFTER THE RELEASE DATE, THE SENIOR NOTE MORTGAGE BONDS SHALL CEASE TO SECURE THE
PAYMENT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF AND INTEREST ON THE SENIOR NOTES, AND THE SENIOR
NOTES WILL BECOME UNSECURED GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. (Section 4.11)
Until the Release Date, the Senior Note Mortgage Bonds secure the payment of the
principal of and interest on the Senior Notes; however, at no time will they
secure the payment of any premium on the Senior Notes. Each series of Senior
Note Mortgage Bonds will be a series of First Mortgage Bonds of the Company, all
of which are secured by a lien on certain property owned by the Company. In
certain circumstances, the Company is permitted to reduce the aggregate
principal amount of the Senior Note Mortgage Bonds held by the Senior Note
Trustee, but in no event to an amount lower than the aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding Senior Notes which they secure. (Section 4.08) The Company is
permitted to issue, pledge and deliver to the Senior Note Trustee additional
First Mortgage Bonds to secure other issuances of Senior Notes under the Senior
Note Indenture. Following the Release Date, the Company will cause the First
Mortgage Indenture to be closed and the Company will not issue any additional
First Mortgage Bonds under the First Mortgage Indenture.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
The following constitute events of default under the Senior Note Indenture:
(a) default in the payment of principal of and premium, if any, on any Senior
Note when due and payable whether at the stated maturity thereof, upon
redemption thereof (provided that such redemption is not conditioned upon the
deposit of sufficient moneys for such redemption) or upon declaration of
acceleration or otherwise; (b) default in the payment of interest on any Senior
Note when due which continues for 30 days; (c) default in the performance or
breach of any other covenant or warranty of the Company in the Senior Note
Indenture and the continuation thereof for 60 days after written notice to the
Company as provided in the Senior Note Indenture; (d) prior to the Release Date,
the occurrence of a completed default under the First Mortgage Indenture, of
which the First Mortgage Trustee (hereinafter defined), the Company or the
holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior
Notes have given written notice thereof to the Senior Note Trustee; and (e)
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company.
(Section 8.01)
If an event of default occurs and is continuing, either the Senior Note
Trustee or the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Senior Notes may declare the principal amount of all Senior Notes to be due and
payable immediately. Upon such acceleration of the Senior Notes, the Senior Note
Trustee is empowered to cause the mandatory redemption of the Senior Note
Mortgage Bonds. At any time after an acceleration of the Senior Notes has been
declared, but before a judgment or decree of the immediate payment of the
principal amount of the Senior Notes has been obtained and so long as all First
Mortgage Bonds have not been accelerated, if the Company pays or deposits with
the Senior Note Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of
interest and the
7
<PAGE>
principal and any premium which has become due otherwise than by acceleration
and all defaults shall have been cured or waived, then such payment or deposit
will cause an automatic rescission and annulment of the acceleration of the
Senior Notes. (Section 8.01)
The Senior Note Indenture provides that the Senior Note Trustee generally
will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the
Senior Note Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless
such holders have offered to the Senior Note Trustee indemnity acceptable to the
Senior Note Trustee. (Section 9.02) The holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Senior Notes generally will have the right to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to the Senior Note Trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Senior Note Trustee, with respect to the Senior Notes. (Section 8.07) Each
holder of any Senior Note has the right to institute a proceeding with respect
to the Senior Note Indenture, but such right is subject to certain conditions
precedent specified in the Senior Note Indenture. (Section 8.04) The Senior Note
Indenture provides that the Senior Note Trustee, within 90 days after the
occurrence of a default with respect to the Senior Notes, is required to give
the holders of the Senior Notes notice of such default, unless cured or waived,
but, except in the case of default in the payment of principal of, or premium,
if any, or interest on any Senior Notes, the Senior Note Trustee may withhold
such notice if it determines in good faith that it is in the interest of such
holders to do so. (Section 8.08) The Company is required to deliver to the
Senior Note Trustee each year a certificate as to whether or not, to the
knowledge of the officers signing such certificate, the Company is in compliance
with the conditions and covenants under the Senior Note Indenture. (Section
6.06)
MODIFICATION
Modification and amendment of the Senior Note Indenture may be effected by
the Company and the Senior Note Trustee with the consent of the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes affected thereby,
provided that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the
holder of each outstanding Senior Note affected thereby, (a) change the stated
maturity of any installment of principal of, or interest on, any Senior Note or
any premium payable on the redemption thereof, or change the redemption price;
(b) reduce the principal amount of, or the interest or premium payable on, any
Senior Note or reduce the amount of principal that could be declared due and
payable prior to the stated maturity; (c) change the coin or currency of any
payment of principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Senior Note; (d)
impair the right of a holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any
payment on or with respect to any Senior Note; (e) reduce the percentage in
principal amount of outstanding Senior Notes, the consent of the holders of
which is required to modify or amend the Senior Note Indenture; (f) impair the
security interest of the Senior Note Trustee in the Senior Note Mortgage Bonds
held by it or, prior to the Release Date, reduce the principal amount of Senior
Note Mortgage Bonds securing the Senior Notes to an amount less than the
principal amount of the Senior Notes or alter the payment provisions of such
Senior Note Mortgage Bonds in a manner adverse to the holders of the Senior
Notes; or (g) modify the foregoing requirements or reduce the percentage of
outstanding Senior Notes necessary to waive any past default to less than a
majority. Modification and amendment of the Senior Note Indenture may be
effected by the Company and the Senior Note Trustee without the consent of the
holders (a) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
holders or to surrender a right conferred on the Company in the Senior Note
Indenture; (b) to add further security for the Senior Notes; or (c) to make
certain other modifications, generally of a ministerial or immaterial nature.
(Sections 13.01 and 13.02)
DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE
The Senior Note Indenture provides that the Company will be discharged from
any and all obligations in respect to the Senior Notes and the Senior Note
Indenture (except for certain obligations such as obligations to register the
transfer or exchange of Senior Notes, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Senior
Notes and maintain paying agencies) if, among other things, the Company
irrevocably deposits with the Senior Note Trustee, in trust for the benefit of
holders of Senior Notes, money or United States government obligations, or any
combination thereof, which through the payment of
8
<PAGE>
interest thereon and principal thereof in accordance with their terms will
provide money in an amount sufficient, without reinvestment, to make all
payments of principal of, and any premium and interest on, the Senior Notes on
the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of the Senior Note
Indenture and the Senior Notes; provided that the Company shall also have
delivered to the Senior Note Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that
the holders of the Senior Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or discharge of the
Senior Note Indenture. Thereafter, the holders of Senior Notes must look only to
such deposit for payment of the principal of, and interest and any premium on,
the Senior Notes. (Section 5.01)
CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS
The Company will not consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or
sell, transfer or otherwise convey all or substantially all its assets unless
the successor or transferee corporation assumes by supplemental indenture the
due and punctual payment of the principal and premium and interest on all the
Senior Notes and the performance of every covenant of the Senior Note Indenture
to be performed or observed by the Company and, prior to the Release Date,
unless the successor or transferee corporation assumes the Company's obligations
under the First Mortgage Indenture with respect to the Senior Note Mortgage
Bonds. Upon any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or conveyance of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the successor corporation
formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which
such transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Company under the Senior Note Indenture with the
same effect as if such successor corporation had been named as the Company
therein and the Company will be released from all obligations under the Senior
Note Indenture. The Senior Note Indenture defines all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company as being 50% or more of the total assets of the
Company as shown on the balance sheet of the Company as of the end of the prior
year and specifically permits any such sale, transfer or conveyance during a
calendar year of less than 50% of total assets without the consent of the
holders of the Senior Notes. (Sections 12.01 and 12.02)
RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL OF NOTE TRUSTEE
The Senior Note Trustee may resign at any time upon written notice to the
Company specifying the day upon which the resignation is to take effect and such
resignation will take effect immediately upon the later of the appointment of a
successor Senior Note Trustee and such specified day. (Section 9.10)
The Senior Note Trustee may be removed at any time by an instrument or
concurrent instruments in writing filed with the Senior Note Trustee and signed
by the holders, or their attorneys-in-fact, of at least a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Senior Notes. In addition, so long as no event of
default or event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both,
would become an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may
remove the Senior Note Trustee upon notice to the holder of each Senior Note
outstanding and the Senior Note Trustee, and appointment of a successor Senior
Note Trustee. (Section 9.10)
CONCERNING THE SENIOR NOTE TRUSTEE
Boatmen's First National Bank of Oklahoma is the Senior Note Trustee under
the Senior Note Indenture. The Company maintains banking relationships with the
Senior Note Trustee in the ordinary course of business. The Senior Note Trustee
also acts as trustee for the Company's First Mortgage Bonds.
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AND FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE
GENERAL
The New Bonds, including any series of Senior Note Mortgage Bonds issued as
security for Senior Notes, will be a series of First Mortgage Bonds issued under
the Trust Indenture dated February 1,
9
<PAGE>
1945 as heretofore supplemented and amended by supplemental trust indentures and
a new supplemental trust indenture for such series of New Bonds (the "New
Supplemental Indenture"), all from the Company to Boatmen's First National Bank
of Oklahoma, as successor Trustee (the "First Mortgage Trustee") to The First
National Bank and Trust Company of Oklahoma City. The Trust Indenture as so
amended and supplemented and as to be further amended and supplemented by the
New Supplemental Indenture and any such subsequent supplemental indenture or
indentures is hereinafter referred to as the "First Mortgage Indenture." Copies
of the First Mortgage Indenture, the supplemental indentures and the form of the
New Supplemental Indenture are filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement
of which this Prospectus is a part. The following summaries of certain
provisions of the First Mortgage Indenture do not purport to be complete and are
subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the detailed provisions of the
First Mortgage Indenture which are incorporated herein by this reference.
References to Article and Section numbers under this caption are references to
Article and Section numbers of the First Mortgage Indenture unless otherwise
indicated. Unless the context indicates otherwise, words or phrases defined in
the First Mortgage Indenture are capitalized and used with the same meanings
herein. Excluding the New Bonds, as of June 30, 1995, 13 series of First
Mortgage Bonds in an aggregate principal amount of $653.5 million currently are
outstanding under the First Mortgage Indenture.
TERMS OF NEW BONDS
The New Bonds will be issued initially as fully registered bonds in
denominations of a multiple of $1,000 each. New Bonds may be issued in temporary
form if, for any reason, the Company is unable to deliver New Bonds in
definitive form. Principal and interest are to be payable in Oklahoma City, New
York or Chicago. The New Bonds will be interchangeable in the manner provided in
Article II of the New Supplemental Indenture. No charge will be made for any
exchange or transfer of New Bonds, other than for any taxes or other
governmental charges.
Reference is made to the applicable Prospectus Supplement for the following
terms and other information with respect to the series of New Bonds being
offered thereby: (1) the designation and aggregate principal amount of such New
Bonds; (2) the date on which the New Bonds will mature; (3) the rate per annum
(or method of calculation) at which such New Bonds will bear interest and the
date from which such interest shall accrue; (4) the dates on which such interest
will be payable; (5) the record dates for payments of interest; (6) any
redemption terms; (7) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at
which and the terms and conditions upon which New Bonds may be repaid, in whole
or in part, at the option of the holder thereof; and (8) other specific terms
applicable to New Bonds.
SECURITY FOR NEW BONDS
In the opinions of counsel for the Company, the New Bonds, when issued, will
be secured by the First Mortgage Indenture, which constitutes a first mortgage
lien, subject only to Permissible Encumbrances, upon all the property of the
Company (except as summarized in the following paragraph) for the equal pro rata
security of each series of First Mortgage Bonds, subject to the provisions
related to any sinking fund or similar fund for the benefit of First Mortgage
Bonds of any particular series. The opinion does not cover title to easements or
rights-of-way as counsel believes the expense of examination would exceed the
cost of acquiring, by condemnation or purchase, any easements or rights-of-way
held under defective titles.
There are excepted from the lien of the First Mortgage Indenture certain
securities, cash, contracts, receivables, motor vehicles, merchandise, equipment
and supplies, and certain non-utility real property. (Granting Clause of the
First Mortgage Indenture.) The First Mortgage Indenture is not a lien on the
properties of any subsidiary of the Company, nor is the stock of any such
subsidiary pledged under the First Mortgage Indenture.
The First Mortgage Indenture contains provisions for subjecting to the lien
thereof (subject to the limitations in Article XV in the case of consolidation
or merger) all property acquired by the Company after the date of the Trust
Indenture other than property of the kind mentioned in the preceding
10
<PAGE>
paragraph. (Granting Clause of the First Mortgage Indenture.) Such provisions
might not be effective as to property acquired within the 90-day period
immediately preceding or acquired subsequent to the filing of a case with
respect to the Company under the United States Bankruptcy Code.
MAINTENANCE PROVISIONS
As a Maintenance Fund for the First Mortgage Bonds, the Company covenants to
pay to the First Mortgage Trustee annually on May 1 an amount equal to 15% of
its Gross Operating Revenues for the preceding calendar year, after deducting
from such revenues (i) cost of electricity purchased for resale and (ii) rentals
paid for utility property, less credits at the Company's option for (a)
maintenance, (b) property retirements offset by Permanent Additions, (c)
retirements of First Mortgage Bonds, (d) Amounts of Established Permanent
Additions and (e) 15% of the portion of Gross Operating Revenues during such
calendar year attributable to increases since January 6, 1975, in the Company's
cost of fuel used in electric generation. Withdrawals from the Maintenance Fund
may be made on the basis of retirements of First Mortgage Bonds and Amounts of
Established Permanent Additions, but cash in excess of $100,000 remaining on
deposit in the Maintenance Fund for more than two years must be used for the
retirement of First Mortgage Bonds. Any such retirement through redemption would
be at the applicable regular redemption price of the First Mortgage Bonds to be
redeemed and subject to any restriction on the redemption of such First Mortgage
Bonds. (Article IX, Section 3.03 of Supplemental Indenture dated March 1, 1952,
and Section 1.01 of Supplemental Indenture dated September 14, 1976.)
The Company has covenanted to maintain its properties in adequate repair,
working order and condition. The First Mortgage Indenture contains provisions
for a periodic inspection of the Company's properties and report by an
independent engineer as to compliance with this covenant. (Section 8.06.)
SINKING FUND PROVISIONS
As an annual sinking fund for each series of First Mortgage Bonds, the
Company covenants to pay to the First Mortgage Trustee annually on December 1 an
amount sufficient to redeem, on the following February 1, for sinking fund
purposes, 1 1/4% of the highest principal amount at any time outstanding of
First Mortgage Bonds of the series for which the sinking fund is applicable.
Sinking fund payments may be offset by (a) application of Amounts of Established
Permanent Additions equal to 166 2/3% of the principal amount of First Mortgage
Bonds which would otherwise be required to be retired by the sinking fund and
(b) retirement or delivery to the First Mortgage Trustee of First Mortgage Bonds
of the series for which the sinking fund is applicable. The First Mortgage
Trustee is required to apply sinking fund money to the purchase or redemption of
First Mortgage Bonds of the series for which such funds are applicable. (Article
XII and Section 3.01 of Supplemental Indenture dated February 1, 1980.)
ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL BONDS
Additional First Mortgage Bonds secured by the First Mortgage Indenture may
be issued on the basis of (a) 60% of the Cost or Fair Value, whichever is less,
of net Permanent Additions (which become available upon proper certification by
the Company), after making the required deductions on account of Retired
Property (Article V); (b) an equal principal amount of retired First Mortgage
Bonds, the retirement whereof has not been otherwise used under the First
Mortgage Indenture (Article VI); and (c) deposit of an equal amount of cash with
the First Mortgage Trustee, which cash may be withdrawn by applying Amounts of
Established Permanent Additions equal to 166 2/3% of such cash to be withdrawn
or by retirement of First Mortgage Bonds (Article VII and Section 3.04 of
Supplemental Indenture dated March 1, 1952). No additional First Mortgage Bonds
may be issued on basis (a), basis (b) under specified conditions or basis (c),
unless the Earnings Applicable to Bond Interest for a specified twelve-month
period are equal to twice the annual interest requirements on the First Mortgage
Bonds including those about to be issued. (Sections 5.03, 6.01 and 7.01).
Earnings Applicable to Bond Interest for the twelve months ended June 30, 1995,
would be 4.4 times the annual interest requirement on the First Mortgage Bonds
of the Company at an assumed 8.5% interest rate.
11
<PAGE>
Additional First Mortgage Bonds may vary from the New Bonds as to maturity,
interest rate, redemption prices, sinking fund and in certain other respects.
(Article II.) The New Bonds will be issued under (a) and/or (b) above. At June
30, 1995, the amount of net Permanent Additions which may be used for the
issuance of First Mortgage Bonds was approximately $1.1 billion. At June 30,
1995, the amount of retired First Mortgage Bonds which may be used for the
issuance of First Mortgage Bonds was $267 million.
PROVISIONS OF FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE LIMITING DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK
The Company covenants that, so long as any First Mortgage Bonds are
outstanding, earned surplus (retained earnings) equal to the sum of (1) the
amount by which the aggregate of (a) provisions for retirement and depreciation
and (b) expenditures for maintenance, during the period from June 1, 1955, to
the last date for which a statement of income is available, is less than 15% of
Gross Operating Revenues (after deducting cost of electricity and/or gas
purchased for resale, rentals paid for utility property and the portion of gross
operating revenues attributable to increases since January 6, 1975, in the
Company's cost of fuel used in electric generation) for that period and (2) the
amount, if any, by which all of the consideration paid by the Company in
acquiring any shares of its Common Stock during the above period exceeds
$217,301,128 plus any consideration received by the Company from the sale after
September 30, 1991 of its Common Stock, shall not be available for the payment
of cash dividends on Common Stock; and that the Company shall not acquire shares
of its Common Stock for a valuable consideration if after such acquisition the
sum of (1) and (2) above would exceed its then earned surplus (retained
earnings). (Section 3.01 of Supplemental Indenture dated January 1, 1957,
Section 1.01 of Supplemental Indenture dated September 14, 1976 and Section 1.01
of Supplemental Indenture dated December 9, 1991.)
RELEASE PROVISIONS
The First Mortgage Indenture contains provisions permitting the release from
its lien of any property upon depositing or pledging cash or certain other
property of comparable Fair Value (Fair Value being defined in substance as the
current value of the property as certified by an engineer, appraiser or similar
expert). The First Mortgage Indenture also contains provisions for the
cancellation, change or alteration of leases, rights-of-way and easements, and
for the surrender and modification of any franchise or governmental consent
subject to certain restrictions, in each case without any release or consent by
the First Mortgage Trustee or accountability thereto for any consideration
received by the Company. (Article XI.)
MODIFICATION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE INDENTURE
With the consent of the Company, the provisions of the First Mortgage
Indenture may be changed by the affirmative vote of the holders of 70% in
principal amount of the First Mortgage Bonds then outstanding except, among
other things, the maturity of a First Mortgage Bond may not be extended, the
interest rate reduced nor the terms of payment of principal or interest changed
without the consent of the holder of such First Mortgage Bond. (Article XVIII.)
CONCERNING THE FIRST MORTGAGE TRUSTEE
Boatmen's First National Bank of Oklahoma is the First Mortgage Trustee
under the First Mortgage Indenture. The Company maintains banking relationships
in the ordinary course of business with the First Mortgage Trustee. The First
Mortgage Trustee also serves as trustee for the Senior Notes.
In case of a Completed Default under the First Mortgage Indenture (see "--
Events of Default" below), the First Mortgage Trustee may, and upon request of
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the First Mortgage Bonds shall,
declare the First Mortgage Bonds due and payable. In case of a Completed
Default, it is obligatory upon the First Mortgage Trustee to take the action or
actions provided in the First Mortgage Indenture to enforce payment of the First
Mortgage Bonds and for the enforcement of the lien of the First Mortgage
Indenture upon being requested to do so by the holders
12
<PAGE>
of a majority in principal amount of the First Mortgage Bonds and upon being
indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein
or thereby without negligence or bad faith. (Sections 13.01, 13.04 and 13.15.)
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
The following is a summary of events defined in the First Mortgage Indenture
as "Completed Defaults": (a) failure to pay principal of any First Mortgage Bond
when due and payable, (b) failure to pay interest on any First Mortgage Bond
within 30 days after it becomes due and payable, (c) failure to meet any payment
to the sinking fund on any First Mortgage Bond within 10 days after same is
payable, (d) the expiration of 30 days after (1) the adjudication of the Company
as a bankrupt or (2) the entry of an order approving a petition filed against
the Company seeking reorganization of the Company, unless during such period
such adjudication or order shall be vacated, (e) the expiration of 90 days
following the appointment of a receiver unless during such period such
appointment shall be vacated, (f) the filing by the Company of a voluntary
petition in bankruptcy or the making of a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors or the consent by the Company to the appointment of a receiver or the
filing by the Company of a petition or answer seeking reorganization or the
filing by the Company of a petition to take advantage of any insolvency act and
(g) failure to perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the First
Mortgage Indenture or First Mortgage Bonds within 60 days following the mailing
by the First Mortgage Trustee or by the holders of at least 15% in principal
amount of the First Mortgage Bonds then Outstanding of a written demand that
such failure be cured. (Section 13.01 and Section 4.01 of Supplemental Indenture
dated February 1, 1980.)
By Section 16.07 of the First Mortgage Indenture, the First Mortgage Trustee
is required to give notice to bondholders (1) within 90 days after the
occurrence of a default known to the First Mortgage Trustee within such period,
or (2) if a default be not known to the First Mortgage Trustee within such
period, within 30 days after such default shall be known to the First Mortgage
Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured before the giving of such
notice; provided that, except in the case of a default resulting from the
failure to make any payment of principal of or interest on any First Mortgage
Bonds or to make any sinking fund or purchase fund payment, the First Mortgage
Trustee may withhold such notice upon determination in good faith by the board
of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or
responsible officers of the First Mortgage Trustee that the withholding of such
notice is in the interest of the bondholders.
BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM
Each series of Securities may be issued in the form of one or more Global
Securities representing all or part of such series of Securities and which will
be deposited with or on behalf of the Depository and registered in the name of
the Depository or a nominee of the Depository.
The following is based solely on information furnished by DTC:
Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement, DTC will act as
Depository for those Securities issued as Global Securities. The Global
Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name
of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee). DTC is a limited-purpose trust
company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization"
within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve
System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions
of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds securities that
its participants ("Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the
settlement among Participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and
pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry
changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. "Direct Participants" include securities
brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain
other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by
the New York Stock
13
<PAGE>
Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc., and the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to others
such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that clear
through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either
directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The rules applicable to DTC
and its Participants are on file with the Commission.
Purchases of the Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC's
records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security
("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect
Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation
from DTC of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive
written confirmation providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through
which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership
interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books
of Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will
not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the
Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the
Securities is discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Participants
with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. The
deposit of the Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede &
Co. effect no change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual
Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC's records reflect only the identity of
the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which
may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain
responsible for keeping account of the holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct
Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct
Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them,
subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from
time to time.
If the Global Securities are redeemable, redemption notices shall be sent to
Cede & Co. If less than all of the Global Securities are being redeemed, DTC's
practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct
Participant in such issue to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the
Securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the
Company as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns
Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose
accounts the Notes are credited on the record date (identified in a listing
attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Principal, interest and any premium payments on the Securities will be made
to DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts on payable
date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records unless
DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on payable date.
Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices, as in the case with securities held for
the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and
will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the applicable
Trustee or the Company, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as
may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, interest and any
premium to DTC is the responsibility of the Company or the applicable Trustee,
disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility
of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the
responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
14
<PAGE>
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with
respect to a series of Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to the
Company or the applicable Trustee. Under such circumstances, if a successor
securities depository is not obtained, certificates for such series of
Securities are required to be printed and delivered.
The Company may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry
transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository) for any series of
Securities. In that event, certificates for such series of Securities will be
printed and delivered.
The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system
has been obtained from DTC, and the Company and any underwriters, dealers or
agents take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.
The underwriters, dealers or agents of any Offered Securities may be Direct
Participants of DTC.
NONE OF THE COMPANY, THE SENIOR NOTE TRUSTEE, THE FIRST MORTGAGE TRUSTEE OR
ANY AGENT FOR PAYMENT ON OR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER OR EXCHANGE OF THE GLOBAL
SECURITY WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY ASPECT OF THE RECORDS
RELATING TO OR PAYMENTS MADE ON ACCOUNT OF BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN SUCH GLOBAL
SECURITY OR FOR MAINTAINING, SUPERVISING OR REVIEWING ANY RECORDS RELATING TO
SUCH BENEFICIAL INTERESTS.
LEGAL OPINIONS
Legal opinions relating to the Securities will be rendered by Rainey, Ross,
Rice & Binns, First National Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Chisenhall,
Nestrud & Julian, P.A., First Commercial Bank Building, Little Rock, Arkansas,
and Gardner, Carton & Douglas, 321 North Clark Street, Chicago, Illinois,
counsel for the Company, and by Jones, Day, Reavis & Pogue, 77 West Wacker
Drive, Chicago, Illinois, counsel for any underwriters, dealers or agents named
in the Prospectus Supplement. As to matters involving conformity to local laws,
the other counsel will rely upon the opinion of Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns with
respect to laws of Oklahoma and upon the opinion of Chisenhall, Nestrud &
Julian, P.A., with respect to laws of Arkansas.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
II-3
<PAGE>
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 15 above, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer of controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by the controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby also undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10 (a) (3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or event arising after the
effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereto) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represented no more
than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement
or any material change to such information in this Registration
Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally and to the extent that general equitable principles
may limit the right to obtain the remedy of specific performance of certain of
the obligations thereunder. The Purchased Notes are in due and proper form and,

Company will deliver the Purchased Notes to the Representatives for the
respective accounts of the Underwriters (in fully registered form issued in such
names and in such denominations as the Representatives may direct by notice in
writing to the Company given at or prior to 3:00 P.M., Oklahoma City Time, on
the second full business day preceding the Closing Date, or, if no such
direction is received, in the names of the respective Underwriters), at the
office specified in Schedule I hereto, against payment of the purchase price
thereof by certified or official bank check or checks in New York Clearing House
funds or similar next day funds, payable to the order of the Company, at the
office specified in said Schedule. The time and date of delivery and closing

-5-
<PAGE>
Schedule I hereto; provided that such time or date may be accelerated or
extended by agreement between the Company and the Representatives. The time and
date of such payment and delivery are herein sometimes referred to as the
"Closing Date."
The Company agrees to make the Purchased Notes available to the
Representatives at the office specified in Schedule I hereto for examination on
behalf of the Underwriters, not later than 11:00 A.M., Oklahoma City Time, on
the business day preceding the Closing Date.
It is understood that the Representatives, either jointly or
individually, and not as representatives of the several Underwriters, may (but
shall not be obligated to) make payment to the Company on behalf of any
Underwriter or Underwriters. Any such payment shall not relieve such
Underwriter or Underwriters from any of its or their other obligations
hereunder.
To the extent that the Purchased Notes are issued prior to the Release
Date, the Representatives agree to deposit with the Company within two business
days after the date of this Agreement the amount set forth in Schedule I hereto

shall not constitute partial or full payment for the Purchased Notes, but shall
be applied solely in accordance with Section 4(i) hereof.
4. AGREEMENTS. The Company agrees with the several Underwriters that:
(a) Promptly following execution of this Agreement, the Company will
cause the Prospectus, including as part thereof a prospectus supplement relating
to the Purchased Notes (the "Prospectus Supplement"), to be filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424 and/or Rule 434 under the Act and the Company
will promptly advise the Representatives when such filing or mailing has been

Representatives in the preparation of the Prospectus Supplement to assure that
the Representatives have no reasonable objection to the form or content thereof
when filed.

-6-
<PAGE>
supplement to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters
reasonably object. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the
issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible
the withdrawal thereof.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Purchased Notes
or the First Mortgage Bonds is required to be delivered under the Act, any event
occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend
or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus to comply with the
Act or the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission under
such Acts, the Company promptly will prepare and file with the Commission,
subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 4, an amendment or supplement or a
filing pursuant to Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act which will correct such
statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such compliance.
(d) The Company will make generally available to its security holders
and to the Representatives a consolidated earnings statement (which need not be
audited) of the Company for the 12-month period beginning after the date of the
Prospectus Supplement, as soon as practicable after the end of such 12-month
period, which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and the
rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (including Rule 158 under the
Act).
(e) The Company will furnish without charge to (i) each of the
Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters a signed copy of the
Registration Statement (but without exhibits incorporated by reference), as
originally filed, all amendments thereto filed prior to the Closing Date, all
Incorporated Documents (including exhibits, other than exhibits incorporated by
reference) and the Statements of Eligibility of the Trustee and the trustee for
the First Mortgage Bonds, (ii) each other Underwriter a conformed copy of the
Registration Statement (but without exhibits), as originally filed, all
amendments thereto (but without exhibits) and all Incorporated Documents (but
without exhibits other than the Company's latest annual report to shareowners)

Supplement and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer
may be required under the Act, any amendments thereof and supplements thereto
(but without Incorporated Documents or exhibits), as soon as available and in
such quantities as the Representatives may reasonably request.
(f) The Company will use its best efforts to arrange for the
qualification of the Purchased Notes and the First Mortgage Bonds for sale under
the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate (provided
that the Company shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation in,
or to execute or file any general consent to service of process under the laws
of, any jurisdiction), will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as
required for the distribution of the Purchased Notes and
-7-
<PAGE>
the First Mortgage Bonds and will arrange for the determination of the legality
of the Purchased Notes and the First Mortgage Bonds for purchase by
institutional investors.
(g) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are
consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay all costs and
expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company
hereunder, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all
costs, taxes and expenses incident to the issue and delivery of the Purchased
Notes and the First Mortgage Bonds to the Underwriters, all fees and expenses of
the Company's counsel and accountants, all costs and expenses incident to the
preparing, printing and filing of the Registration Statement (including all
exhibits thereto), any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, the Prospectus
Supplement and any amendments thereof or supplements thereto (except the cost of
amending or supplementing the Prospectus after ninety days following the Closing
Date, which shall be at the expense of the Underwriters requesting same), all
costs and expenses (including fees of counsel not exceeding $10,000 and
disbursements) incurred in connection with state securities law qualifications,
examining the legality of the Purchased Notes and the First Mortgage Bonds for
investment and the rating of the Purchased Notes, and all costs and expenses of
the printing and distribution of all documents prepared in connection with the
issuance and sale of the Purchased Notes and the First Mortgage Bonds. Except
as provided in this Section 4(g), Section 7 and Section 8 hereof, the
Underwriters will pay all their own costs and expenses, including the fees of
their counsel and any advertising expenses in connection with any offers they
may make.
(h) During the period beginning from the date of this Agreement and
continuing to the Closing Date, the Company will not offer, sell, contract to
sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities of the Company which mature
more than one year after the Closing Date and which are substantially similar to
the Purchased Notes, without the prior written consent of the Representatives;
provided that in no event shall the foregoing period extend more than fifteen
business days from the date of this Agreement.
(i) To the extent the Purchased Notes are issued prior to the Release
Date, the Company will use the amount deposited by the Representatives with it
pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3 hereof to the extent necessary to
pay for the account of the several Underwriters, in the same proportion as the
principal amount of Purchased Notes to be purchased by each of them bears to the
total principal amount of the Purchased Notes, any Oklahoma Real Estate Mortgage
Tax required to be paid by them on the Purchased Notes and/or the First Mortgage
Bonds. Any amount not so applied by the Company before the Closing Date shall
be remitted in same day funds by the Company to the Representatives for the
account of the several Underwriters on the Closing Date.

the manner indicated under the caption "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus.

5. CONDITIONS TO THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE UNDERWRITERS. The obligations of
the Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Purchased Notes shall be subject to
the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company
contained herein as of the date hereof and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of
the statements of the Company made in any certificates pursuant to the
provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company of its obligations
hereunder and to the following additional conditions:
(a) No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall then be
pending before, or threatened by, the Commission.
(b) If the Purchased Notes are issued prior to the Release Date, the

principal and interest on the Notes, a series of First Mortgage Bonds (the
"Bonds") in the same aggregate principal amount and with the same stated rate or
rates of interest (or interest calculated in the same manner), payment dates,
maturity dates and redemption provisions as the Purchased Notes they secure.
The Bonds will be issued by the Company under its Trust Indenture dated
February 1, 1945 between the Company and Boatmen's First National Bank of
Oklahoma, as successor trustee (the "First Mortgage Trustee") to The First
National Bank and Trust Company of Oklahoma City, as heretofore amended and
supplemented and as to be further amended and supplemented by a Supplemental
Trust Indenture or Supplemental Trust Indentures creating the series in which
the First Mortgage Bonds are to be issued. The term "First Mortgage Indenture,"
as hereinafter used, means such Trust Indenture dated February 1, 1945, as so
amended and supplemented.
(c) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives the opinion of
Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns, counsel for the Company, dated the Closing Date, to
the effect that:
(i) the Company is a legally existing corporation under the laws
of the State of Oklahoma and has corporate power, right and authority to do
business and to own property in the State of Oklahoma in the manner and as
set forth in the Prospectus;
(ii) the Indenture has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by the Company, which has full power and authority to enter into
and perform its obligations thereunder, and constitutes the binding and
enforceable agreement of the Company in accordance with its terms, except
as enforcement of provisions of the Indenture may be limited by bankruptcy
or other applicable laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights;
(iii) the Purchased Notes and, if prior to the Release Date, the
First Mortgage Bonds have been duly and validly authorized by the Company
and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company;
-9-
<PAGE>
(iv) while, except as otherwise stated in said opinion, such
counsel are not passing upon and do not assume responsibility for and shall
not be deemed to have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or
fairness of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, nothing has come
to the attention of such counsel that would lead them to believe that the
Registration Statement at the time it became effective contained an untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading or that the Prospectus at the time it was filed pursuant to Rule
424 and/or Rule 434 under the Act or on the Closing Date contained an
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(v) the execution and delivery of this Agreement have been duly
authorized by the necessary action on the part of the Company and this
Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Company except
to the extent that the provisions for indemnities may be held to be
unenforceable as against public policy;
(vi) except in localities where the Company has no franchises,
which are relatively few and not of large population, and where the failure
to have such franchises will not have a material adverse effect on the
business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole, the Company has sufficient authority under statutory provisions or
by grant of franchises or permits by municipalities or counties to conduct
its business in Oklahoma as presently conducted and as described in the
Prospectus;
(vii) such counsel does not know of any legal or governmental
proceedings required to be described in the Prospectus which are not
described as required, nor of any contracts or documents of a character
required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or to
be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which are not described
and filed as required;
(viii) the Indenture and the Purchased Notes conform in all
material respects to the statements concerning them in the Prospectus;
(ix) all statements contained in the Registration Statement and
Prospectus purporting to set forth the advice or the opinion of such
counsel or to be based upon the opinion of such counsel correctly set forth
the opinion of such counsel on such respective matters;
(x) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
issuance of the Purchased Notes, and compliance with the provisions
thereof, under the circumstances contemplated hereby and thereby, do not
and will not violate the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the
Company or any
-10-
<PAGE>
Subsidiary, or in any material respect conflict with or constitute on the
part of the Company or any Subsidiary a breach of or default under any
indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note, agreement or other
instrument known to such counsel to which the Company or any Subsidiary is
a party or any law, regulation, consent decree or administrative,
arbitration or court order known to us to which the Company or any
Subsidiary is subject;
(xi) the Oklahoma Commission has duly issued its order
authorizing the issuance by the Company of the Purchased Notes on terms
consistent with this Agreement and, to the best of such counsel's
knowledge, such order is still in force and effect; the issuance and sale
of the Purchased Notes to the Underwriters are in conformity with the terms
of such order; and no further approval, authorization, consent, certificate
or order of any Oklahoma commission or regulatory authority is necessary
with respect to the issuance and sale of the Purchased Notes by the Company
as contemplated in this Agreement, other than approvals that may be
required under Oklahoma state securities laws; and
(xii) Each Subsidiary is a legally existing corporation under the
laws of the State of Oklahoma, has corporate power, right and authority to
do business and to own property in the State of Oklahoma in the manner and
as set forth in the Prospectus, and is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation in each jurisdiction in which its failure to qualify would have
a material adverse effect on the business and operation of the Company and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
In addition, if the Purchased Notes are to be issued prior to the Release Date
and Bonds are being issued to the Trustee to secure the payment of the principal
and interest on the Purchased Notes, such opinion will be to the further effect
that:
(xiii) the First Mortgage Indenture has been duly and validly
executed and delivered by the Company, which has full power and authority
to enter into and perform its obligations thereunder, and constitutes the
binding and enforceable agreement of the Company in accordance with its
terms, except as enforcement of provisions of the First Mortgage Indenture
may be limited by bankruptcy or other applicable laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights and except as provisions of the United
States Bankruptcy Code may affect the validity of the lien thereof with
respect to property acquired or proceeds realized by the Company after the
commencement of bankruptcy proceedings with respect to the Company;
(xiv) the Bonds have been duly and validly authorized by the
Company, and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company and,
with like exception as noted in the foregoing subdivision (xiii), are
entitled to the lien of and benefits provided by the First Mortgage
Indenture;
-11-
<PAGE>
(xv) The First Mortgage Indenture is in proper form, conforming
to the laws of the State of Oklahoma, to give and create the lien which it
purports to create and has been and at the Closing Date is duly and
properly recorded or filed in all places in Oklahoma necessary to
effectuate the lien of the First Mortgage Indenture;
(xvi) The Bonds are equally and ratably secured with all other
First Mortgage Bonds outstanding under the First Mortgage Indenture by the
First Mortgage Indenture subject to the provisions of the First Mortgage
Indenture relating to any sinking fund or a similar fund for the benefit of
the first mortgage bonds of any particular series. The First Mortgage
Indenture constitutes a first mortgage lien, subject only to permissible
encumbrances, as defined in the First Mortgage Indenture, on all of the
property, real, personal, and mixed (except as hereinafter noted), in
Oklahoma now owned by the Company. The First Mortgage Indenture also
constitutes a first mortgage lien, subject to permissible encumbrances as
defined in the First Mortgage Indenture, on all property, real, personal,
and mixed (except as hereinafter noted), hereafter acquired by the Company
in Oklahoma in conformity with the terms of the First Mortgage Indenture,
except as the United States Bankruptcy Code may affect the validity of the
lien of the First Mortgage Indenture on property acquired after the
commencement of a case under such Code, except as to the prior lien of the
First Mortgage Trustee under the First Mortgage Indenture in certain events
specified therein and except as otherwise provided in the First Mortgage
Indenture in case of consolidation or merger. There are excepted from the
lien of the First Mortgage Indenture, as more fully set forth in the
granting clauses thereof, (1) all shares of stock, bonds, notes, evidences
of indebtedness and other securities other than such as may be or are
required to be deposited from time to time with the First Mortgage Trustee,
(2) cash other than such as may be or are required to be deposited from
time to time with the First Mortgage Trustee, (3) contracts, claims, bills
and accounts receivable, and choses in action other than such as may be or
are required to be from time to time assigned to the First Mortgage
Trustee, (4) motor vehicles, (5) any oil, gas and other minerals under or
on lands owned by the Company, (6) goods, wares and merchandise, equipment
and supplies acquired for the purpose of sale or resale in the usual course
of business or for the purpose of consumption in the operation,
construction or repair of any of the properties of the Company, and (7)
certain properties specifically described in Schedule B to the First
Mortgage Indenture not used or useful in the business of the Company. The
Company, except as to permissible encumbrances, as defined in the First
Mortgage Indenture, has good and valid title to the real and fixed
properties in Oklahoma and franchises from Oklahoma or federal authorities
now owned by it; (however, such opinion need not cover titles to rights-of-
way or easements for transmission or distribution lines).
(d) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives the
opinion of Lawrence Chisenhall, counsel for the
-12-
<PAGE>
Company in the State of Arkansas dated the Closing Date, to the effect that:
(i) the Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation under
the laws of the State of Arkansas and has corporate power, right and
authority to do business and to own property in the State of Arkansas in
the manner and as set forth in the Prospectus;
(ii) if prior to the Release Date, the First Mortgage Indenture
is in proper form, conforming to the laws of the State of Arkansas, to give
and create the lien which it purports to create and has been and at the
Closing Date is duly and properly recorded or filed in all places in
Arkansas necessary to effectuate the lien of the First Mortgage Indenture;
(iii) if prior to the Release Date, the First Mortgage Indenture
constitutes a first mortgage lien, subject only to permissible
encumbrances, as defined in the First Mortgage Indenture, on all of the
property, real, personal, and mixed (except as hereinafter noted), in
Arkansas now owned by the Company. The First Mortgage Indenture also
constitutes a first mortgage lien, subject to permissible encumbrances as
defined in the First Mortgage Indenture, on all property, real, personal,
and mixed (except as hereinafter noted) hereafter acquired by the Company
in Arkansas in conformity with the terms of the First Mortgage Indenture,
except as the United States Bankruptcy Code may affect the validity of the
lien of the First Mortgage Indenture on property acquired after the
commencement of a case under such Code, except as to the prior lien of the

it; (however, such opinion need not cover titles to rights-of-way or
easements for transmission or distribution lines).
(iv) except in localities where the Company has no franchises,
which are relatively few and not of large population, and where the failure
to have such franchises will not have a material adverse effect on the

its business in Arkansas as presently conducted and as described in the

authorizing the issuance by the Company of the Purchased Notes on terms
consistent with this Agreement and such order is still in force and effect;
the issuance and sale of the Purchased Notes to the Underwriters is in

authorization, consent, certificate or order of the Arkansas Commission or
any other Arkansas governmental or regulatory authority is necessary with

contemplated in this Agreement, other than approvals that may be required
under Arkansas state securities laws; and
(vii) he is not handling any litigation relating to the Company
except as set forth in a schedule attached to such opinion.
(e) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives the
opinion of Gardner, Carton & Douglas, counsel for the Company, dated the Closing
Date, covering the matters set forth in subdivisions (i), (ii), (iii), (iv),
(v), (vii), (viii), (x), (xiii) and (xiv) of paragraph (c) of this Section 5 and
to the further effect that:
(i) the Registration Statement has become effective under the
Act and, to the best of the knowledge of said counsel, no proceedings for a
stop order in respect thereof are pending or threatened under Section 8(d)
or 8(e) of the Act;
(ii) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (except as to
the financial statements and financial or statistical data contained or
incorporated by reference therein, with respect to which said counsel need
express no opinion) comply as to form, in all material respects, with the
requirements of the Act, the Exchange Act and the Trust Indenture Act and
the rules and regulations of the Commission under such Acts; and the
Incorporated Documents (except as to
-14-
<PAGE>
the financial statements and financial or statistical data contained
therein, with respect to which said counsel need express no opinion)
as of their respective dates of filing with the Commission complied
as to form in all material respects with the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations of the Commission thereunder;
(iii) the Indenture and the First Mortgage Indenture have each
been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act as and to the extent required
by the provisions of such Act; and
(iv) all approvals, authorizations, consents, certificates or
orders of any state or Federal commission or regulatory authority that are
necessary with respect to the issuance and sale of the Purchased Notes and,
if prior to the Release Date, the Bonds by the Company as contemplated in
this Agreement have been obtained, other than approvals that may be
required under state securities laws.
Such opinion may be subject to the reservation that, in giving such
opinion, said counsel have relied on the opinion of Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns
as to all matters of Oklahoma law and on the opinion of Lawrence Chisenhall,
Esq. as to all matters of Arkansas law (including without limiting the foregoing
all opinions as to titles of the Company to its properties, the lien of the
First Mortgage Indenture thereon, the validity and sufficiency of franchises and
permits, and the validity and sufficiency of the orders described in subdivision
(xi) of subsection (c) of this Section 5 and subdivision (vi) of subsection (d)
of this Section 5), provided that such opinion shall state that said counsel
believes that the Underwriters and they are justified in relying on the opinions
of Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns and of Lawrence Chisenhall, Esq.
(f) The Representatives shall have received from Jones, Day, Reavis &
Pogue, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing
Date, with respect to such matters related to the issuance and sale of the
Purchased Notes as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company
shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the
purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
(g) At the Closing Date there shall not have been, since the
respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement
and the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Company or in the earnings, affairs or business prospects of
the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, and the
Representatives shall have received a certificate of the Chairman of the Board
and President or a Vice President of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the
effect that (i) there has been no such material adverse change, (ii) the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct
with the same force and effect as though expressly made at and as of the Closing
Date, (iii) the Company has complied with all agreements and satisfied all
conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing
Date and (iv) no stop order
-15-
<PAGE>
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and
no proceedings for that purpose have been initiated or, to his knowledge,
threatened by the Commission.
(h) At the date of this Agreement and at the Closing Date the
Representatives shall receive from Arthur Andersen LLP a letter (in form and
substance satisfactory to them) dated such dates to the effect that they are
independent public accountants within the meaning of the Act and the applicable
published rules and regulations thereunder and that the answer to Item 10 of
Form S-3 is correct insofar as it relates to them, and stating in effect that
(i) in their opinion, the financial statements and schedules audited by them and
contained in the Incorporated Documents comply as to form in all material
respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act, the Exchange
Act and the published rules and regulations thereunder; (ii) they have performed
limited procedures, not constituting an audit, including a reading of the latest
available unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, a reading of all recent minutes of meetings of the Board of
Directors, committees of the Board of Directors and shareowners of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, inquiries of officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries
responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and
procedures as may be specified in such letter, and on the basis of such limited
review and procedures, nothing came to their attention which caused them to
believe that (a) any unaudited financial statements of the Company included or
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or Prospectus do not
comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting
requirements of the Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
applicable thereto or are not stated on a basis substantially consistent with
that of the audited financial statements of the Company incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement, or (b) as of a specified date not more
than five business days prior to the date of delivery of each such letter, there
was any decrease in the capital stock or any increase in the consolidated long-
term debt of the Company and its subsidiaries, or any decrease in consolidated
net assets, as compared with amounts shown in the most recent consolidated
balance sheet included or incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement or for the period from the first day of the month next following the
date of said balance sheet to a specified date not more than five business days
prior to the date of delivery of each such letter there were any decreases, as
compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in operating
revenues, operating income and net income, except in all instances for changes
which the Prospectus discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described
in such letter; (iii) they have carried out specified procedures performed for
the purpose of comparing certain specified financial information and percentages
(which is limited to financial information derived from general accounting
records of the Company) included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement with indicated amounts in the financial statements or
accounting records of the Company and (excluding any questions of legal
interpretation) have found such information and percentages to be in agreement
with the relevant accounting and financial information of the Company referred
to in such letter in
-16-
<PAGE>
the description of the procedures performed by them and (iv) they have read any
unaudited financial statement information and financial ratios set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement and have performed specified procedures with respect
thereto set forth in such letter, and nothing came to their attention which
caused them to believe that such financial information does not agree with the
latest available unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or was not determined on a basis substantially consistent with that
of the corresponding amounts in the audited financial statements incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement. If additional unaudited financial
information is included in the Prospectus, appropriate statements with respect
thereto shall also be set forth in such letter.
(i) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is
given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have
been any change or decrease specified in the letter referred to in paragraph (h)
of this Section 5 which makes it impractical or inadvisable in the judgment of
the Representatives to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the
Purchased Notes as contemplated by the Prospectus.
(j) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to
the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the
Representatives may reasonably request.
In giving the opinions contemplated by paragraphs (c), (d), (e) and
(f) of this Section 5, counsel may rely upon certificates of state officials as
to the Company's good standing and upon certificates of officers of the Company
as to matters of fact relevant to such opinions. In giving such opinions,
counsel may assume (i) that the Purchased Notes have been executed on behalf of
the Company by the manual or facsimile signatures of the President or a Vice
President and the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and have
been manually authenticated by an authorized official of the Trustee, (ii) that
the signatures on all documents examined by them are genuine, and (iii) the
adequacy of the written information supplied by the Representatives and the
other Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have
been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions
or certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in
all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Representatives and their counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the
Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing
Date by the Representatives.
6. CONDITIONS OF COMPANY'S OBLIGATION. The obligation of the Company to
deliver the Purchased Notes upon payment therefor shall be subject to the
following conditions:
On the Closing Date the orders of the Oklahoma Commission and the
Arkansas Commission referred to in paragraph (i) of
-17-
<PAGE>
Section 2 hereof shall be in full force and effect substantially in the form in
which originally entered; the Indenture and, if prior to the Release Date, the
First Mortgage Indenture, shall be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act as
and to the extent required by such Act; and no stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no
proceedings for that purpose shall then be pending before, or threatened by, the
Commission.
In case any of the conditions specified above in this Section 6 shall
not have been fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company by
delivering written notice of termination to the Representatives. Any such
termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except to
the extent provided in paragraph (g) of Section 4 and Section 7 hereof.
7. REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES. If the sale of the Purchased
Notes provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the
obligations of the Underwriters or the Company set forth in Section 5 or
Section 6 hereof, respectively, is not satisfied or because of any refusal,
inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein
or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of
the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally upon
demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel and any amounts deposited by the Representatives with
the Company for payment of the Oklahoma Real Estate Mortgage Tax) that shall
have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of
the Purchased Notes.
8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and
agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within
the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (including any investigation,
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount
paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to
which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or
other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as
originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise
out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any such
document a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified
party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided that (i) the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon any such untrue statement
-18-
<PAGE>
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives
specifically for use in connection with the preparation thereof and (ii) such
indemnity with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the
benefit of any Underwriter (or any person controlling such Underwriter) from
whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased
any of the Purchased Notes which are the subject thereof if such person did not
receive a copy of the Prospectus (or, if the Prospectus shall have been amended
or supplemented, the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented), excluding the
Incorporated Documents, at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such
Purchased Notes to such person in any case where such delivery is required by
the Act and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in
such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus (or the Prospectus
as then amended or supplemented). This indemnity agreement will be in addition
to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the
Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the
meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with
reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives
specifically for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the
foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the
indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such
indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party; provided that if the defendants in any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal
defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different
from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such
legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on
behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the
-19-
<PAGE>
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section 8 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the
indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the
assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding
sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by the
Representatives in the case of subparagraph (a), representing the indemnified
parties under subparagraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the
indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time
after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has
authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of
the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable,
such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such
clause (i) or (iii). Any indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent, which
consent may not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such proceeding.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) of this
Section 8 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a
court to be unavailable from the Company on grounds of policy or otherwise, the
Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
in connection with investigating or defending same) to which the Company and one
or more of the Underwriters may be subject (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the
Underwriters from the offering of the Purchased Notes or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred
to in clause (i) above, but also the relative fault of the Company or the
Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the
Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
and the underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set
forth on the
-20-
<PAGE>
cover of the Prospectus Supplement, bear to the aggregate public offering price
of the Purchased Notes. The relative fault of the Company and the Underwriters
shall be determined by a reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this paragraph (d) were determined by pro
rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), (x) in no
case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any Agreement Among
Underwriters) be responsible for any amount in excess of the aggregate
underwriting discounts applicable to the Purchased Notes purchased by such
Underwriter hereunder and (y) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute pursuant to this
paragraph (d) are several (and not joint) in proportion to the respective
principal amount of Purchased Notes to be purchased by each of such
Underwriters. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an
Underwriter within the meaning of the Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company
within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the
Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of
the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject
in each case to clauses (x) and (y) of this paragraph (d). Any party entitled
to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any
action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for
contribution may be made against another party or parties under this
paragraph (d), notify such party from whom contributions may be sought, but the
omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or
parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or
they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this paragraph (d).
9. DEFAULT BY AN UNDERWRITER. If any one or more of the Underwriters
shall fail to purchase and pay for the Purchased Notes agreed to be purchased by
such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall
constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this
Agreement, the Representatives may find one or more substitute underwriters to
purchase such Purchased Notes or make such other arrangements as the
Representatives deem advisable or one or more of the nondefaulting Underwriters
may agree to purchase such Purchased Notes in such proportions as may be agreed
upon by the Representatives, in each case upon the terms set forth in this
Agreement. If no such arrangements have been made within 36 hours after the
Closing Date, each of the nondefaulting Underwriters shall be obligated
severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the
amounts of Purchased Notes set
-21-
<PAGE>
forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bear to the aggregate amount of
Purchased Notes set opposite the names of all the nondefaulting remaining
Underwriters) the Purchased Notes which the defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase, provided that in the event that the
aggregate principal amount of Purchased Notes which the defaulting Underwriter
or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Purchased Notes set forth in Schedule II hereto, the
nondefaulting Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not
be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Purchased Notes and if such
nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Purchased Notes, this
Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or
the Company, except as provided in Section 11 hereof. In the event of a default
by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be
postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the Representatives
shall determine, in order that the required changes in the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus Supplement or in any other documents or
arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve
any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any
nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
10. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the
absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior
to delivery of and payment for the Purchased Notes, if prior to such time
(i) there has been, since the date of this Agreement or since the respective
dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus, any loss sustained by the Company or any Subsidiary by strike, fire,
flood, accident or other calamity of such character as to interfere materially
with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company and the
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole regardless of whether or not such loss shall have
been insured, or any material adverse change in the earnings, affairs, condition
(financial or otherwise) or business prospects of the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange
shall have been suspended or limited or additional material governmental
restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, have been imposed upon
trading in securities generally, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall
have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been
required on the New York Stock Exchange, by the New York Stock Exchange or by
order of the Commission or any other governmental authority having jurisdiction,
(iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New
York State authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis, the effect of
which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in
the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to market the
Purchased Notes.
11. REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNITIES TO SURVIVE. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the
-22-
<PAGE>
Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full
force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any
Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents
or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive
delivery of and payment for the Purchased Notes. The provisions of Sections 7
and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
12. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing and
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed,
delivered in person or transmitted by any form of written telecommunication to
them at the address specified in Schedule I hereto, or, if sent to the Company,
will be mailed, delivered in person or transmitted by any form of written
telecommunication to it, at 101 North Robinson, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73101,
attention of James R. Hatfield, Treasurer.
13. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and
the officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to
in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation
hereunder. The term "successors and assigns" as used in this Agreement shall
not include any purchaser, as such purchaser, of any of the Purchased Notes from
any of the Underwriters.
14. REPRESENTATION OF THE UNDERWRITERS. The Representatives represent and
warrant to the Company that they are authorized to act as the representatives of
the Underwriters in the subject matter of this Agreement, and the
Representatives' execution and delivery of this Agreement and any action under
this Agreement taken by such Representatives will be binding upon all
Underwriters.
15. INTERPRETATION WHEN NO REPRESENTATIVES. In the event no Underwriters
are named in Schedule II hereto, the term "Underwriters" shall be deemed for all
purposes of this Agreement to be the Underwriter or Underwriters named as such
in Schedule I hereto, the principal amount of the Purchased Notes to be
purchased by any such Underwriter shall be that set opposite its name in
Schedule I hereto and all references to the "Representatives" shall be deemed to
be the Underwriter or Underwriters named in such Schedule I.
16. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts all of
which, taken together, shall constitute a single agreement among the parties to
such counterparts.
17. APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company
First Mortgage Bonds
UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT
___________, 199_
To the Representatives named in
Schedule I hereto of the Under-
writers named in Schedule II hereto.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
1. INTRODUCTION. Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company, an Oklahoma
corporation (the "Company"), proposes to issue and sell from time to time First
Mortgage Bonds (the "Bonds"). The Bonds will be issued by the Company under its
Trust Indenture dated February 1, 1945 between the Company and Boatmen's First
National Bank of Oklahoma, as successor trustee (the "Trustee") to The First
National Bank and Trust Company of Oklahoma City, as heretofore amended and
supplemented and as to be further amended and supplemented by a Supplemental

limited by applicable bankruptcy,
-4-
<PAGE>
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors'
rights generally and to the extent that general equitable principles may limit
the right to obtain the remedy of specific performance of certain of the
obligations thereunder. The Purchased Bonds are in due and proper form and,

Underwriter or Underwriters from any of its or their other obligations
hereunder.

cause the Prospectus, including as part thereof a prospectus supplement relating

filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the
Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters reasonably object. The Company
will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order
-6-

and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

is required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of which
the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement

statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

amendment which will effect such compliance.

Underwriter a conformed copy of the Registration Statement (but without
exhibits), as originally filed, all amendments thereto (but without exhibits)

may reasonably request.
(f) The Company will use its best efforts to arrange for the
qualification of the Purchased Bonds for sale under the laws of such
jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate (provided that the Company
shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation in, or to execute or
file any general consent to service of process under the laws of, any
jurisdiction), will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required
for the
-7-

distribution of the Purchased Bonds and will arrange for the determination of
the legality of the Purchased Bonds for purchase by institutional investors.
(g) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are
consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay all costs and

accountants, all costs and expenses incident to the preparing, printing and
filing of the Registration Statement (including all exhibits thereto), any
preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and any
amendments thereof or supplements thereto (except the cost of amending or
supplementing the Prospectus after ninety days following the Closing Date, which
shall be at the expense of the Underwriters requesting same), all costs and
expenses (including fees of counsel not exceeding $10,000 and disbursements)
incurred in connection with state securities law qualifications, examining the
legality of the Purchased Bonds for investment and the rating of the Purchased

hereof, the Underwriters will pay all their own costs and expenses, including
the fees of their counsel and any advertising expenses in connection with any
offers they may make.
(h) During the period beginning from the date of this Agreement and
continuing to the Closing Date, the Company will not offer, sell, contract to
sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities of the Company which mature
more than one year after the Closing Date and which are substantially similar to
the Purchased Bonds, without the prior written consent of the Representatives;
provided that in no event shall the foregoing period extend more than fifteen
business days from the date of this Agreement.
(i) The Company will use the amount deposited by the Representatives
with it pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3 hereof to the extent
necessary to pay for the account of the several Underwriters, in the same
proportion as the principal amount of Purchased Bonds to be purchased by each of
them bears to the total principal amount of the Purchased Bonds, the Oklahoma
Real Estate Mortgage Tax required to be paid by them on the Purchased Bonds.
Any amount not so applied by the Company before the Closing Date shall be
remitted in same day funds by the Company to the Representatives for the account
of the several Underwriters on the Closing Date.

except as provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code may affect the
validity of the lien thereof with respect to property acquired or proceeds

counsel are not passing upon and do not assume responsibility for and shall
not be deemed to have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or
fairness of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, nothing has come
to the attention of such counsel that would lead them to believe that the
Registration Statement at the time it became effective contained an untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading or that the Prospectus at the time it was filed pursuant to Rule
424 and/or Rule 434 under the Act or on the Closing Date contained an

issuance of the Purchased Bonds, and compliance with the provisions
thereof, under the circumstances contemplated hereby and thereby, do not
and will not violate the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the

constitute on the part of the Company or any Subsidiary a breach of or
default under any indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note,

opinion of Gardner, Carton & Douglas, counsel for the Company, dated the Closing
Date, covering the matters set forth in subdivisions (i), (ii), (iii), (vi),
(vii), (ix), (x), and (xii) of paragraph (b) of this Section 5 and to the
further effect that:
(i) the Registration Statement has become effective under the

stop order in respect thereof are pending or threatened under Section 8(d)
or 8(e) of the Act;
(ii) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (except as to
the financial statements and financial or statistical data contained or
incorporated by reference therein, with respect to which said counsel need
express no opinion) comply as to form, in all material respects, with the
requirements of the Act, the Exchange Act and the Trust Indenture Act and
the rules and regulations of the Commission under such Acts; and the
Incorporated Documents (except as to the financial statements and financial
or statistical data contained therein, with respect to which said counsel
need express no opinion) as of their respective dates of filing with the
Commission complied as to form in all material respects with the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder;
(iii) the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture
Act as and to the extent required by the provisions of such Act; and
(iv) all approvals, authorizations, consents, certificates or
orders of any state or Federal commission or regulatory authority that are
necessary with respect to the issuance and sale of the Purchased Bonds by
the Company as contemplated in this Agreement have been obtained, other

Such opinion may be subject to the reservation that, in giving such
opinion, said counsel have relied on the opinion of Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns
as to all matters of Oklahoma law and on the opinion of Lawrence Chisenhall,
Esq. as to all matters of Arkansas law (including without limiting the foregoing
all opinions as to titles of the Company to its properties, the lien of the
Indenture thereon, the validity and sufficiency of franchises and permits, and
the validity and sufficiency of the orders described in subdivision (xiii) of
subsection (b) of this Section 5 and subdivision (vi) of subsection (c) of this
Section 5), provided that such opinion shall state that said counsel believes
that the
-14-
<PAGE>
Underwriters and they are justified in relying on the opinions of Rainey, Ross,
Rice & Binns and of Lawrence Chisenhall, Esq.
(e) The Representatives shall have received from Jones, Day,
Reavis & Pogue, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated
the Closin g Date, with respect to such matters related to the issuance and
sale of the Purchased Bonds as the Representatives may reasonably require,
and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they
request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
(f) At the Closing Date there shall not have been, since the
respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement
and the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Company or in the earnings, affairs or business prospects of
the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, and the
Representatives shall have received a certificate of the Chairman of the Board
and President or a Vice President of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the
effect that (i) there has been no such material adverse change, (ii) the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct
with the same force and effect as though expressly made at and as of the Closing
Date, (iii) the Company has complied with all agreements and satisfied all
conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing
Date and (iv) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been
initiated or, to his knowledge, threatened by the Commission.
(g) At the date of this Agreement and at the Closing Date the
Representatives shall receive from Arthur Andersen LLP a letter (in form and
substance satisfactory to them) dated such dates to the effect that they are
independent public accountants within the meaning of the Act and the applicable
published rules and regulations thereunder and that the answer to Item 10 of
Form S-3 is correct insofar as it relates to them, and stating in effect that
(i) in their opinion, the financial statements and schedules audited by them and
contained in the Incorporated Documents comply as to form in all material
respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act, the Exchange
Act and the published rules and regulations thereunder; (ii) they have performed
limited procedures, not constituting an audit, including a reading of the latest
available unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries, a reading of all recent minutes of meetings of the Board of
Directors, committees of the Board of Directors and shareowners of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, inquiries of officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries
responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and
procedures as may be specified in such letter, and on the basis of such limited
review and procedures, nothing came to their attention which caused them to
believe that (a) any unaudited financial statements of the Company included or
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or Prospectus do not
comply
-15-
<PAGE>
as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements
of the Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations applicable thereto or
are not stated on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited
financial statements of the Company incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement, or (b) as of a specified date not more than five
business days prior to the date of delivery of each such letter, there was any
decrease in the capital stock or any increase in the consolidated long-term debt
of the Company and its subsidiaries, or any decrease in consolidated net assets,
as compared with amounts shown in the most recent consolidated balance sheet
included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or for the
period from the first day of the month next following the date of said balance
sheet to a specified date not more than five business days prior to the date of
delivery of each such letter there were any decreases, as compared with the
corresponding period in the preceding year, in operating revenues, operating
income and net income, except in all instances for changes which the Prospectus
discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter;
(iii) they have carried out specified procedures performed for the purpose of
comparing certain specified financial information and percentages (which is
limited to financial information derived from general accounting records of the
Company) included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
with indicated amounts in the financial statements or accounting records of the
Company and (excluding any questions of legal interpretation) have found such
information and percentages to be in agreement with the relevant accounting and
financial information of the Company referred to in such letter in the
description of the procedures performed by them and (iv) they have read any
unaudited financial statement information and financial ratios set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement and have performed specified procedures with respect
thereto set forth in such letter, and nothing came to their attention which
caused them to believe that such financial information does not agree with the
latest available unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or was not determined on a basis substantially consistent with that
of the corresponding amounts in the audited financial statements incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement. If additional unaudited financial
information is included in the Prospectus, appropriate statements with respect
thereto shall also be set forth in such letter.
(h) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is
given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have
been any change or decrease specified in the letter referred to in paragraph (g)
of this Section 5 which makes it impractical or inadvisable in the judgment of
the Representatives to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the
Purchased Bonds as contemplated by the Prospectus.
(i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to
the Representatives such further information,
-16-
<PAGE>
certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.
In giving the opinions contemplated by paragraphs (b), (c) (d) and (e)
of this Section 5, counsel may rely upon certificates of state officials as to
the Company's good standing and upon certificates of officers of the Company as
to matters of fact relevant to such opinions. In giving such opinions, counsel
may assume (i) that the Purchased Bonds have been executed on behalf of the
Company by the manual or facsimile signatures of the President or a Vice
President and the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and have
been manually authenticated by an authorized official of the Trustee, (ii) that
the signatures on all documents examined by them are genuine, and (iii) the
adequacy of the written information supplied by the Representatives and the
other Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have
been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions
or certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in
all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Representatives and their counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the
Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing
Date by the Representatives.
6. CONDITIONS OF COMPANY'S OBLIGATION. The obligation of the Company to
deliver the Purchased Bonds upon payment therefor shall be subject to the
following conditions:
On the Closing Date the orders of the Oklahoma Commission and the
Arkansas Commission referred to in paragraph (i) of Section 2 hereof shall be in
full force and effect substantially in the form in which originally entered; the
Indenture shall
be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act as and to the extent required by such
Act; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall then be
pending before, or threatened by, the Commission.
In case any of the conditions specified above in this Section 6 shall
not have been fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company by
delivering written notice of termination to the Representatives. Any such
termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except to
the extent provided in paragraph (g) of Section 4 and Section 7 hereof.
7. REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES. If the sale of the Purchased
Bonds provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the
obligations of the Underwriters or the Company set forth in Section 5 or
Section 6 hereof, respectively, is not satisfied or because of any refusal,
inability or failure on the
-17-
<PAGE>
part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision
hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company
will reimburse the Underwriters severally upon demand for all out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and any amounts
deposited by the Representatives with the Company for payment of the Oklahoma
Real Estate Mortgage Tax) that shall have been incurred by them in connection
with the proposed purchase and sale of the Purchased Bonds.
8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and
agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within
the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (including any investigation,
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount
paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to
which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or
other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as
originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise
out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any such
document a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified
party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided that (i) the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through
the Representatives specifically for use in connection with the preparation
thereof and (ii) such indemnity with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall
not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter (or any person controlling such
Underwriter) from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or
liability purchased any of the Purchased Bonds which are the subject thereof if
such person did not receive a copy of the Prospectus (or, if the Prospectus
shall have been amended or supplemented, the Prospectus as then amended or
supplemented), excluding the Incorporated Documents, at or prior to the
confirmation of the sale of such Purchased Bonds to such person in any case
where such delivery is required by the Act and the untrue statement or omission
of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the
Prospectus (or the Prospectus as then amended or
-18-
<PAGE>
supplemented). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability
which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the
Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the
meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with
reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives
specifically for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the
foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the
indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such
indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party; provided that if the defendants in any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal
defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different
from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such
legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on
behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section 8 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the
indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the
assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding
sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by the
Representatives in the case of subparagraph (a), representing the indemnified
parties under subparagraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the
indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to
-19-
<PAGE>
the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable
time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party
has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the
expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is
applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to
in such clause (i) or (iii). Any indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent, which
consent may not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such proceeding.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) of this
Section 8 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason held by a
court to be unavailable from the Company on grounds of policy or otherwise, the
Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
in connection with investigating or defending same) to which the Company and one
or more of the Underwriters may be subject (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the
Underwriters from the offering of the Purchased Bonds or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred
to in clause (i) above, but also the relative fault of the Company or the
Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the
Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
and the underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set
forth on the cover of the Prospectus Supplement, bear to the aggregate public
offering price of the Purchased Bonds. The relative fault of the Company and
the Underwriters shall be determined by a reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that
it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
paragraph (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any
-20-
<PAGE>
other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (d).
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), (x) in no case shall any
Underwriter (except as may be provided in any Agreement Among Underwriters) be
responsible for any amount in excess of the aggregate underwriting discounts
applicable to the Purchased Bonds purchased by such Underwriter hereunder and
(y) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters'
obligations to contribute pursuant to this paragraph (d) are several (and not
joint) in proportion to the respective principal amount of Purchased Bonds to be
purchased by each of such Underwriters. For purposes of this Section 8, each
person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Act shall have the
same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls
the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each
officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company, subject in each case to clauses (x) and (y) of this paragraph (d). Any
party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of
which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties
under this paragraph (d), notify such party from whom contributions may be
sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve
the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other
obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this
paragraph (d).
9. DEFAULT BY AN UNDERWRITER. If any one or more of the Underwriters
shall fail to purchase and pay for the Purchased Bonds agreed to be purchased by
such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall
constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this
Agreement, the Representatives may find one or more substitute underwriters to
purchase such Purchased Bonds or make such other arrangements as the
Representatives deem advisable or one or more of the nondefaulting Underwriters
may agree to purchase such Purchased Bonds in such proportions as may be agreed
upon by the Representatives, in each case upon the terms set forth in this
Agreement. If no such arrangements have been made within 36 hours after the
Closing Date, each of the nondefaulting Underwriters shall be obligated
severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the
amounts of Purchased Bonds set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto
bear to the aggregate amount of Purchased Bonds set opposite the names of all
the nondefaulting remaining Underwriters) the Purchased Bonds which the
defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase, provided
that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Purchased Bonds which
the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall
exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Purchased Bonds set forth in
-21-
<PAGE>
Schedule II hereto, the nondefaulting Underwriters shall have the right to
purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the
Purchased Bonds and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the
Purchased Bonds, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any
nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company, except as provided in Section 11
hereof. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this
Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding
seven days, as the Representatives shall determine, in order that the required
changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement or in any
other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to
the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its
default hereunder.
10. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the
absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior
to delivery of and payment for the Purchased Bonds, if prior to such time
(i) there has been, since the date of this Agreement or since the respective
dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus, any loss sustained by the Company or any Subsidiary by strike, fire,
flood, accident or other calamity of such character as to interfere materially
with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company and the
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole regardless of whether or not such loss shall have
been insured, or any material adverse change in the earnings, affairs, condition
(financial or otherwise) or business prospects of the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange
shall have been suspended or limited or additional material governmental
restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, have been imposed upon
trading in securities generally, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall
have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been
required on the New York Stock Exchange, by the New York Stock Exchange or by
order of the Commission or any other governmental authority having jurisdiction,
(iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New
York State authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis, the effect of
which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in
the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to market the
Purchased Bonds.
11. REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNITIES TO SURVIVE. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to
this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of
the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in
Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and
-22-
<PAGE>
payment for the Purchased Bonds. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof
shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
12. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing and
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed,
delivered in person or transmitted by any form of written telecommunication to
them at the address specified in Schedule I hereto, or, if sent to the Company,
will be mailed, delivered in person or transmitted by any form of written
telecommunication to it, at 101 North Robinson, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73101,
attention of James R. Hatfield, Treasurer.
13. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and
the officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to
in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation
hereunder. The term "successors and assigns" as used in this Agreement shall
not include any purchaser, as such purchaser, of any of the Purchased Bonds from
any of the Underwriters.
14. REPRESENTATION OF THE UNDERWRITERS. The Representatives represent and
warrant to the Company that they are authorized to act as the representatives of
the Underwriters in the subject matter of this Agreement, and the
Representatives' execution and delivery of this Agreement and any action under
this Agreement taken by such Representatives will be binding upon all
Underwriters.
15. INTERPRETATION WHEN NO REPRESENTATIVES. In the event no Underwriters
are named in Schedule II hereto, the term "Underwriters" shall be deemed for all
purposes of this Agreement to be the Underwriter or Underwriters named as such
in Schedule I hereto, the principal amount of the Purchased Bonds to be
purchased by any such Underwriter shall be that set opposite its name in
Schedule I hereto and all references to the "Representatives" shall be deemed to
be the Underwriter or Underwriters named in such Schedule I.
16. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts all of
which, taken together, shall constitute a single agreement among the parties to
such counterparts.
17. APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

amount equal to, and having the same terms, Original Issue Date or Dates and

(a) If any temporary or definitive Note shall become mutilated or be
destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company shall execute, and upon its request the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note of like form and principal
amount and having the same terms and Original Issue Date or Dates and bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the
mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed,
lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish
to the Company, the Trustee and any paying agent or Authenticating Agent such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft of a Note, the applicant shall
also furnish to the Company and to the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
(b) The Trustee shall authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the
same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the Company.
Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Company may require the payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. If any
Note which has matured, is about to mature, has been redeemed or called for
redemption shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company
may, instead of issuing a substituted Note, pay or authorize the payment of the
same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note) if the
applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company, the Trustee and any
paying agent or Authenticating Agent such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them harmless and, in case of destruction, loss
or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee of the
destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
(c) Every substituted Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 by virtue of
the fact that any Note is mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute
an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled
to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and
all other Notes duly issued hereunder. All Notes shall be held and owned upon
the express condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing
provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other
rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter
enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable
instruments or other securities without their surrender.
SECTION 2.08. TEMPORARY NOTES. Pending the preparation of definitive
Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
temporary Notes (printed, lithographed or otherwise reproduced). Temporary Notes
shall be issuable in any authorized denomination and substantially in the form
of the definitive Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as
may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company.
Every such temporary Note shall be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same
conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as
the definitive Notes. Without unreasonable delay the Company shall execute and
shall deliver to the Trustee definitive Notes and thereupon any or all temporary
Notes shall be surrendered in exchange therefor at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee, and the Trustee shall authenticate, deliver and register in
exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of
definitive Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the
11
<PAGE>
Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor to the Noteholders.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes authenticated and
delivered hereunder.
SECTION 2.09. CANCELLATION OF NOTES PAID, ETC. All Notes surrendered for
the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange or registration of transfer shall
be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation and promptly cancelled by it and
no Notes shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. The Company's acquisition of any Notes shall not operate as a
redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless
and until the same are surrendered to and cancelled by the Trustee.
SECTION 2.10. INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED. Each Note delivered under this
Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall
carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Note, and each such Note shall be so dated that neither
gain nor loss of interest shall result from such transfer, exchange or
substitution.
SECTION 2.11. SPECIAL RECORD DATE. If and to the extent that the Company
fails to make timely payment or provision for timely payment of interest on any
series of Notes (other than on an Interest Payment Date that is a maturity date
or a redemption date), that interest shall cease to be payable to the Persons
who were the Noteholders of such series at the applicable Regular Record Date.
In that event, when moneys become available for payment of the interest, the
Trustee shall (a) establish a date of payment of such interest and a Special
Record Date for the payment of that interest, which Special Record Date shall be
not more than 15 nor fewer than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed
payment and (b) mail notice of the date of payment and of the Special Record
Date not fewer than 10 days preceding the Special Record Date to each Noteholder
of such series at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the mailing at
the address of such Noteholder, as it appeared on the register for the Notes. On

except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a
nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary
or by The Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee
of such successor Depositary. Unless this Global Note is presented by an
authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company (55 Water Street, New
York, New York), to the trustee for registration of transfer, exchange or
payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or
such other name as requested by an authorized representative of The Depository
Trust Company and any payment is made to Cede & Co., any transfer, pledge or
other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful since

applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor
Depositary with respect to such Global Note. If a successor Depositary for such
Global Note is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company

cancelled by the Trustee. Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to
this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized
denominations as the Depositary for such Global Note, pursuant to instructions
from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the
Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Notes to the Depositary for delivery to
the persons in whose names such Notes are so registered, or if the Depositary
shall refuse or be unable to deliver such Notes, the Trustee shall deliver such
Notes to the persons in whose names such Notes are registered, unless otherwise
agreed upon between the Trustee and the Company, in which event the Company
shall cause the Notes to be delivered to the persons in whose names such Notes
are registered.
(d) Neither the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent nor any
paying agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership
interests of a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interest.

deliver to, or at the direction of, the Depositary a Global Note in principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, and with all terms identical
to, the Global Notes surrendered thereto and that shall indicate each applicable
Original Issue Date and the principal amount applicable to each such Original
Issue Date. The exchange contemplated in this subsection shall be consummated at
least 30 days prior to any Interest Payment Date applicable to any of the Global
Notes surrendered to the Trustee. Upon any exchange of any Global Note with two
or more Original Issue Dates, whether pursuant to this Section or pursuant to
Section 2.06 or Section 3.03 hereof, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
with a particular Original Issue Date shall be the same before and after such
exchange, after giving effect to any retirement of Notes and the Original Issue
Dates applicable to such Notes occurring in connection with such exchange.

of such default for a period of 30 days;
(2) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any of

(3) failure on the part of the Company duly to observe or perform any
other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company contained in
the Notes or in this Indenture for a period of 60 days after the date on

stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder, shall have been
given to the Company by the Trustee by registered mail, or to the Company
and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes at the time outstanding;
26
<PAGE>

First Mortgage) has occurred and is continuing, and the Mortgage Trustee,
the Company or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at the time outstanding shall have given written notice thereof to the
Trustee;
(5) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction over
the Company for relief in respect of the Company under Title 11 of the
United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or
appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian,
sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part
of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs,
and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a

proceedings thereunder or to the filing of any such petition or to the
appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or
of any substantial part of its property, or the failure of the Company
generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of
corporate action by the Company to effectuate any such action;
then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all of the Notes
shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Noteholders),
may declare the principal of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately and
upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and
payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes contained to the contrary
notwithstanding. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if,
at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and
payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due
shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided and prior to the

become due solely by acceleration of maturity, shall have been cured or waived
(including any defaults under the First Mortgage, as evidenced by notice thereof
from the Mortgage Trustee to the Trustee) -- then and in every such case such
payment or deposit shall cause an automatic waiver of the Event of Default and
its consequences and shall cause an automatic rescission and annulment of the
acceleration of the Notes; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall
extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right
consequent thereon.
(b) If the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this
Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because
of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been
determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company and
the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights
hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company and the Trustee

compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, any expenses or
liabilities incurred by the Trustee hereunder other than through its negligence
or bad faith, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.06 hereof.
(b) If the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such
demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall
be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in
equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, including, prior to the

advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including, prior to the
Release Date, any claims of the Trustee as holder of Senior Note First Mortgage
Bonds and including any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.06 hereof)

Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or
their property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable
or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the
deduction of its charges and expenses.
(d) All claims and rights of action under this Indenture, or under any of
the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Notes, or the production thereof in any trial or other proceeding relative
thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect
of which such action was taken.

SECTION 8.04. PROCEEDINGS BY NOTEHOLDERS.
(a) No Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing
of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding
in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless
such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an
Event of Default with respect to such Note and of the continuance thereof, as
hereinabove provided, and unless also Noteholders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding affected by such Event of Default
shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit
or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the
Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses
and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 60 days
after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have
neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding.
29
<PAGE>
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, however, the
rights of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of the principal of and any
premium and interest on such Note, on or after the respective due dates
expressed in such Note or on the applicable redemption date, or to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates
shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
SECTION 8.05. PROCEEDINGS BY TRUSTEE. In case of an Event of Default
hereunder the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the
rights vested in it by this Indenture, including, prior to the Release Date, its
rights as holder of the Senior Note First Mortgage Bonds, by such appropriate
judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and
enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by
proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of
any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise
of any power granted to it under this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal
or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.
SECTION 8.06. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE AND CONTINUING. All powers and remedies
given by this Article Eight to the Trustee or to the Noteholders shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any powers
and remedies hereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee
or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce
the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this
Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of
the Notes in exercising any right or power accruing upon any default occurring
and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be
construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and,
subject to Section 8.04, every power and remedy given by this Article Eight or
by law to the Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time,
and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders.
SECTION 8.07. DIRECTION OF PROCEEDINGS AND WAIVER OF DEFAULTS BY MAJORITY
OF NOTEHOLDERS. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at the time outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method,
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee,
or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided that with
respect to any direction to the Trustee in connection with Senior Note First
Mortgage Bonds, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
the payment of the interest on and principal of which Notes are secured by such
Senior Note First Mortgage Bonds shall have the right to provide directions to
the Trustee and Holders of no other Notes shall be entitled to provide
directions to the Trustee; provided, further, that (subject to Section 9.01) the
Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the
Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action or proceeding so
directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board
of directors or trustees, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors
or trustees or responsible officers shall determine that the action or
proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or would
be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Noteholders not joining in such
directions. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
at the time outstanding may on behalf of all of the Holders of the Notes waive
any past default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except a
default in the payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the Notes.
Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall
be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default
or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default
hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 8.07, said default
or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be
deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.
SECTION 8.08. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after
the occurrence of a default, give to all Holders of the Notes, in the manner
provided in section 15.10, notice of such default, unless such default shall
have been cured before the giving of such notice, the term "default" for the
purpose of this Section 8.08 being hereby defined to be any event which is or
after notice or
30
<PAGE>
lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default; provided that, except in
the case of default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or
interest on any of the Notes, or in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund
installments, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and
so long as its board of directors or trustees, executive committee, or a trust
committee of directors or trustees or responsible officers in good faith
determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the
Holders of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
Event of Default unless a responsible officer of the Trustee assigned to the
corporate trustee department of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such
Event of Default.
SECTION 8.09. UNDERTAKING TO PAY COSTS. All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Holder of any Note by acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have
agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any
party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and
that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party
litigant; but this Section 8.09 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders,
holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes
outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of
the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Note on or
after the due date expressed in such Note or the applicable redemption date.

(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after
the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or
waived) the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by
this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as
a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his own affairs.
(b) No provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:
(1) prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default and after the curing
or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred
(A) the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall
not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations
as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and
(B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or
opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions
which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished
to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to
determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
Indenture;
(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a responsible officer or officers of the Trustee, unless it
shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts; and
31
<PAGE>
(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with Section 8.07
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee under this Indenture.
SECTION 9.02. RELIANCE ON DOCUMENTS, OPINIONS, ETC. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 9.01:
(a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from
acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice, request, consent, order, note or other paper or document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties;
(b) any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein
shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers' Certificate (unless other
evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed); and any Board
Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;
(c) the Trustee may consult with counsel and any advice or Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of
any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;
(d) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights
or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of
any of the Noteholders, pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Noteholders
shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by such exercise;
(e) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;
(f) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after the
curing or waiving of all Events of Default, the Trustee shall not be bound to
make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent,
order, approval, note or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to
do so by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes; provided that if the payment within a reasonable time to the
Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the
making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably
assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by this Indenture, the
Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability as a
condition to so proceeding;
(g) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to extend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance
of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such
funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it; and
(h) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform
any duties hereunder either directly or through agents or attorneys; provided
that the Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or acts of any such agent
or attorney that shall have been appointed in accordance herewith with due care.
SECTION 9.03. NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR RECITALS, ETC. The recitals contained
herein and in the Notes (except in the certificate of authentication) shall be
taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes
32
<PAGE>
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with this Indenture.
The Trustee shall not be responsible for recording or filing this Indenture, any
supplemental indenture, or any financing or continuation statement in any public
office at any time or times.
SECTION 9.04. TRUSTEE, AUTHENTICATING AGENT, PAYING AGENT OR REGISTRAR MAY
OWN NOTES. The Trustee and any Authenticating Agent or paying agent in its
individual or other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent or paying
agent.
SECTION 9.05. MONEYS TO BE HELD IN TRUST. Subject to Section 5.04, all
moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided,
be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee
may allow and credit to the Company interest on any money received hereunder at
such rate, if any, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Trustee from
time to time as may be permitted by law.
SECTION 9.06. COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES OF TRUSTEE. The Company covenants
and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be
entitled to, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any law in
regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and the Company
shall pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with
this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the reasonable
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and agents, including any
Authenticating Agents, and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except
any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or
bad faith. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold
it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence
or bad faith on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses
of defending itself against any claim or liability. The obligations of the
Company under this Section 9.06 to compensate the Trustee and to pay or
reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute
additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured
by a lien prior to that of the Notes upon all property and funds held or
collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of
the Holders of any particular Notes.
SECTION 9.07. OFFICERS' CERTIFICATE AS EVIDENCE. Whenever in the
administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or
desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to the taking, suffering
or omitting of any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in
respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of
negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively
proved and established by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and
such Officers' Certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it under this Indenture in reliance thereon.
SECTION 9.08. CONFLICTING INTEREST OF TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall be
subject to and shall comply with the provisions of Section 310 of the TIA;
provided that, to the extent permitted by law, Boatmen's First National Bank of
Oklahoma shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest for purposes of
Section 310(b) of the TIA because of its capacity as trustee under the First
Mortgage. Nothing in this Indenture shall be deemed to prohibit the Trustee or
the Company from making any application permitted pursuant to such section.
SECTION 9.09. EXISTENCE AND ELIGIBILITY OF TRUSTEE. There shall at all
times be a Trustee hereunder which Trustee shall at all times be a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or any State

to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid authority, then for the purposes
of

this Section 9.09, the combined capital and surplus shall be deemed to be as set
forth in its most recent report of condition so published. No obligor upon the
Notes or Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under
common control with such obligor shall serve as Trustee. If at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with this Section 9.09, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in

instruments in writing filed with such Trustee and signed and acknowledged by

event has occurred and is continuing that, with the giving of notice or the
lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, the Company may remove
any Trustee upon written notice to the Holder of each Note outstanding and the
Trustee.
(d) If at any time (1) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with Section 9.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six
months, (2) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 9.08 hereof after
written request therefor by the Company or any such Holder, or (3) the Trustee
shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or
a receiver of the Trustee or its property shall be appointed or any public

Trustee may be removed forthwith by an instrument or concurrent instruments in
writing filed with the Trustee and either:
(1) signed by the President or any Vice President of the Company and
attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company; or
(2) signed and acknowledged by the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of outstanding Notes or by their attorneys in fact duly authorized.

Noteholder or the resigning Trustee may apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Said court may thereupon after such
notice, if any, as such court may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor
Trustee.

SECTION 9.12. ACCEPTANCE BY SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE.
(a) Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 9.11 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor Trustee
an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and
such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee
herein; but nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the
successor Trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts
then due it pursuant to Section 9.06, execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights and powers of the Trustee
so ceasing to act, including all right, title, and interest in the Senior Note

shall execute any and all instruments in writing in order more fully and
certainly to vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee all such rights and
powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all
property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then
due it pursuant to Section 9.06.

(a) Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any

business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of
the parties hereto, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under this Article.
(b) If at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts
created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not
delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor Trustee, and deliver such Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either
in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor
Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which
it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificates
of the Trustee shall have; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Notes in the name of
any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by
merger, conversion or consolidation.
SECTION 9.14. LIMITATIONS ON RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AS A CREDITOR.
The Trustee shall be subject to, and shall comply with, the provisions of
Section 311 of the TIA.
SECTION 9.15. AUTHENTICATING AGENT.

Notes in connection with transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.06, 2.07,
2.08, 2.13, 3.03, and 13.04, as fully to all intents and purposes as though such
Authenticating Agents had been expressly authorized by those Sections to
authenticate and deliver Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the
authentication and delivery of Notes by any Authenticating Agent
35
<PAGE>
pursuant to this Section 9.15 shall be deemed to be the authentication and
delivery of such Notes "by the Trustee." Any such Authenticating Agent shall be
a bank or trust company or other Person of the character and qualifications set
forth in Section 9.09.
(b) Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business
of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent
hereunder, if such successor corporation is otherwise eligible under this
Section 9.15, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor
corporation.
(c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice
of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of
termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such

Authenticating Agent, and upon so doing shall give written notice of such
appointment to the Company and shall mail, in the manner provided in Section
15.10, notice of such appointment to the Holders of Notes.
(d) The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services, and the Trustee shall be entitled to

of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue) for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of the principal and premium, if any, and
interest on such Note, and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor
the Trustee nor any paying agent
36
<PAGE>
nor any Authenticating Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon any such Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
SECTION 10.04. COMPANY-OWNED NOTES DISREGARDED. In determining whether the
Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes have
concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Notes which
are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Notes or by any person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect
common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Notes shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such
determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver only
Notes which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so
owned which have been pledged in good faith to third parties may be regarded as
outstanding for the purposes of this Section 10.04 if the pledgee shall
establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right to take action
with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not a person directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common
control with the Company or any such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as
to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel
shall be full protection to the Trustee.
SECTION 10.05. REVOCATION OF CONSENTS; FUTURE HOLDERS BOUND. Except as may
be otherwise required in the case of a Global Note by the applicable rules and
regulations of the Depositary, at any time prior to the taking of any action by
the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a
Note, which has been included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented
to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at the corporate
trust office of the Trustee and upon proof of ownership as provided in Section
10.02(a), revoke such action so far as it concerns such Note. Except as
aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive
and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note
and of any Notes issued in exchange, substitution or upon registration of
transfer therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made
upon such Note or such other Notes.
SECTION 10.06. RECORD DATE FOR NOTEHOLDER ACTS. If the Company shall
solicit from the Noteholders any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other act, the Company may, at its option, by Board
Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Noteholders
entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so.
If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other act may be given before or after the record
date, but only the Noteholders of record at the close of business on the record
date shall be deemed to be Noteholders for the purpose of determining whether
Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes have
authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act, and for that purpose the
outstanding Notes shall be computed as of the record date; provided that no such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act
by the Noteholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall
become effective pursuant to this Indenture not later than six months after the
record date. Any such record date shall be 30 days prior to the date of the
solicitation to the Noteholders by the Company.

basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In any case where any Interest
Payment Date or date on which the principal of this Global Note is required to
be paid is not a Business Day, then payment of principal, premium or interest
need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business

date on which the principal of this Global Note is required to be paid and, in
the case of timely payment thereof, no interest shall accrue for the period from

Global Note is required to be paid.
The Company, at its option, and subject to the terms and conditions provided

the Notes (except for certain obligations including obligations to register the
transfer or exchange of Notes, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Notes, maintain

in accordance with their terms will provide money, or a combination of money and
U.S. Government Obligations, in any event in an amount sufficient, without
reinvestment, to pay all the principal of and any premium and interest on the
Notes on the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of the
Notes.
If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the
Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided
in the Indenture.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modifications of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Noteholders under the Indenture at any time by the
Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any such consent or
waiver by the Holder of this Global Note shall be conclusive and binding upon
such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Global Note and of any Note
issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the
Note.
As set forth in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of
any Notes will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the
Indenture or for any remedy thereunder unless such Holder shall have previously
given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with
respect to such Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes affected by such Event of Default shall have
made written request and offered reasonable indemnity to the Trustee to
institute such proceeding as Trustee and the Trustee shall have failed to
institute such proceeding within 60 days; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the
enforcement of payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on this
Note on or after the respective due dates expressed here.
No reference herein to the Indenture and to provisions of this Global Note
or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and
interest on this Global Note at the times, places and rates and the coin or
currency prescribed in the Indenture.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, this Global Note may be transferred only as permitted by the legend
hereto.
If at any time the Depositary for this Global Note notifies the Company that
it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Global Note or if
at any time the Depositary for this Global Note shall no longer be eligible or
in good standing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
C-3
<PAGE>
amended, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to this Global Note. If a successor Depositary
for this Global Note is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the
Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the
Company's election to issue this Note in global form shall no longer be
effective with respect to this Global Note and the Company will execute, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of
individual Notes in exchange for this Global Note, will authenticate and deliver
individual Notes of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Note.
The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that all
Notes (but not less than all) issued or issuable in the form of one or more
Global Notes shall no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In
such event, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes in
exchange for such Global Note, shall authenticate and deliver, individual Notes
of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the principal amount of such Global Note or Notes in exchange for such
Global Note or Notes.
Under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture, the Depositary may
be required to surrender any two or more Global Notes which have identical terms
(but which may have differing Original Issue Dates) to the Trustee, and the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to, or at
the direction of, the Depositary a Global Note in principal or amount equal to
the aggregate principal amount of, and with all terms identical to, the Global
Notes surrendered thereto and that shall indicate all Original Issue Dates and
the principal amount applicable to each such Original Issue Date.
The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Oklahoma.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Trustee, directly or through an Authenticating Agent by manual signature of an
authorized officer, this Global Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
All terms used in this Global Note which are defined in the Indenture shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated
herein.

[LETTERHEAD OF RAINEY, ROSS, RICE & BINNS]
August 14, 1995
Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company
101 North Robinson
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73101
Re: $120,000,000 Principal Amount of Securities
-------------------------------------------
Gentlemen:
We have examined the Form S-3 Registration Statement, dated August 14,
1995 (the "Registration Statement"), of Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company
(the "Company"), to which this opinion is an exhibit, for the registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of an aggregate
principal amount of $120,000,000 of (a) First Mortgage Bonds of one or more
series (the "Bonds") to be issued under the Trust Indenture dated February 1,
1945 as heretofore supplemented and amended by supplemental trust indentures
and a new supplemental trust indenture (the "New Supplemental Indentures")
for each series of Bonds all from the Company to Boatmen's First National
Bank of Oklahoma, as successor trustee (such Trust Indenture, as supplemented
and as to be supplemented, is herein referred to as the "First Mortgage
Indenture") and (b) notes or debentures ("Senior Notes") issued under the
senior note indenture the form of which is an exhibit to the Registration
Statement (the "Senior Note Indenture") between the Company and Boatmen's
First National Bank of Oklahoma, as trustee. The Bonds and the Senior Notes
are herein referred to collectively as the "Securities". We have examined all
records, instruments, and documents which we have deemed necessary for the
purposes of this opinion, including the Registration Statement on Form S-3 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the Securities to be filed
by the Company pursuant to said Act.
Based upon the foregoing and upon our general familiarity with the
properties and affairs of the Company, we are of the opinion that:
1. The Company is a validly organized and legally existing
corporation, in good standing under the laws of the State of Oklahoma and is
authorized to conduct and operate its business as a public utility in the
State of Oklahoma.
2. The First Mortgage Indenture, other than the New Supplemental
Indentures, is a legal, valid, and binding instrument of the Company.
3. The Senior Note Indenture, when duly executed and delivered by the
Company and the Trustee, will be a valid, legal and binding instrument of the
Company.
<PAGE>
4. When, as and if the Registration Statement on Form S-3, to which
this opinion is an exhibit, becomes effective pursuant to the provisions of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the Corporation Commission of the
State of Oklahoma and the Arkansas Public Service Commission have authorized
the issuance and sale of the Securities and (a) with respect to the Bonds,
when, as and if the Bonds and one or more New Supplemental Trust Indentures
relating thereto have duly authorized, executed, delivered, filed and recorded
as required by law, and the consideration for the Bonds duly received by the
Company, all in the manner contemplated by the said Registration Statement,
and (b) with respect to the Senior Notes, when, as and if the Senior Notes
and the Senior Note Indenture have been duly executed and delivered, and the
consideration for the Senior Notes duly received by the Company, all in the
manner contemplated by the said Registration Statement, the Bonds and the
Senior Notes will be legally issued and binding obligations of the Company if
issued before January 1, 1997.
5. The statements made in the above-mentioned Registration Statement
and in the related Prospectus, purporting to be made or based upon our
opinion, correctly set forth our opinion upon said respective matters.
Respectfully,
RAINEY, ROSS, RICE & BINNS

EXHIBIT 1
BOATMEN'S FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OKLAHOMA
AMENDED ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
For the purpose of organizing an association to carry on the business of banking
under the laws of the United States, the undersigned do enter into the following
articles of association:
FIRST. The title of this association shall be Boatmen's First National Bank
of Oklahoma.
SECOND. The main office of the association shall be in Oklahoma City, county of
Oklahoma, state of Oklahoma. The general business of the association shall be
conducted at its main office and its branches.
THIRD. The board of directors of this association shall consist of not less
than five nor more than twenty-five shareholders, the exact number to be fixed
and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full board
of directors or by resolution of the shareholders at any annual Or special
meeting thereof. Each director, during the full term of his or her
directorship, shall own a minimum of $1,000 aggregate par value of stock of
this association or a minimum par market value or equity interest of $1,000 of
stock in the bank holding company controlling this association. Any vacancy
in the board of directors may be filled by action of the board of directors
provided, however, that a majority of the full board of directors may not
increase the number of directors to a number which: (1) exceeds by more than two
the number of directors last elected by shareholders where the number was 15 or
less; and (2) exceeds by more than four the number of directors last elected by
shareholders where the number was 16 or more, but in no event shall the number
of directors exceed 25.
FOURTH. There shall be an annual meeting of the shareholders to elect directors
and transact whatever other business may be brought before the meeting. It
shall be held at the main office or any other convenient place the board of
directors may designate, on the day of each year specified therefore in the
bylaws, but if no election is held on that day, it may be held on any subsequent
day according to such lawful rules as may be prescribed by the board of
directors.
FIFTH. The authorized amount of capital stock of this association shall be
5,115,500 shares of common stock of the par value of Five Dollars ($5.00) each;
but said capital stock may be increased or decreased from time to time,
according to the provisions of the laws of the United States.
SIXTH. The board of directors shall appoint one of its members president of
this association, who shall be chairperson of the board, unless the board
appoints another director to be the chairperson. The board of directors shall
have the power to appoint one or more vice presidents; and to appoint a cashier
and
<PAGE>
such other officers and employees as may be required to transact the business of
this association.
The board of directors shall have the power to:
- Define the duties of the officers and employees of the association.
- Fix the salaries to be paid to the officers and employees.
- Dismiss officers and employees.
- Require bonds from officers and employees and to fix the penalty thereof.
- Regulate the manner in which any increase of the capital of the association
shall be made.
- Manage and administer the business and affairs of the association.
- Make all bylaws that it may be lawful for the board to make.
- Generally to perform all acts that are legal for a board of directors to

SEVENTH. The board of directors shall have the power to change the location of
the main office to any other place within the limits of Oklahoma City, with the
approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, without the approval of the
shareholders, and shall have the power to establish or change the location of
any branch or branches of the association to any other location, with the
approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, without the approval of the
shareholders.
EIGHTH. The corporate existence of this association shall continue until
terminated according to the laws of the United States.
NINTH. The board of directors of this association, or any one (1) or more
shareholders owning, in the aggregate, not less than five percent (5%) of the
stock of this association, may call a special meeting of shareholders at any
time. Unless otherwise provided by the laws of the United States, a notice of
the time, place and purpose of every annual and special meeting of the
shareholders shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed at
least 10 days prior to the date of the meeting to each shareholder of record at
his address as shown upon the books of this association.
TENTH (a) RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who was or is made a party or
is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(hereinafter a
<PAGE>
"proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or
she is the legal representative, or is or was a director or officer of the
Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to
employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action
in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any
other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Association to the fullest extent
authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law (as if the Association had
been incorporated as a Delaware corporation), as the same exists or may
hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent
that such amendment permits the Association to provide broader indemnification
rights that such law permitted the Association to provide prior to such
amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in
settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection
therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased
to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of
his or her heirs, executors and administrators; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, except
as provided in paragraph (b) hereof with respect to proceedings to enforce
rights to indemnification, the Association shall indemnify any such person in
connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only. if
such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of
the Association. The right to indemnification conferred in this section shall
be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Association
the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final
disposition; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Delaware General Corporation Law
(had the Association been incorporated as a Delaware corporation) requires, the
payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her
capacity in which service was or is rendered by such director or officer,
including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance
of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to
the Association of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer
to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final
judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under
this section or otherwise. The Association may, by action of its Board of
Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the Association
with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and
officers. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, no person shall be indemnified
hereunder by the Association against expenses, penalties, or other payments
incurred in an administrative proceeding or action (instituted by an appropriate
bank regulatory agency) which proceeding or action results in a final order
assessing civil money penalties or
<PAGE>
requiring affirmative action by an individual or individuals in the form of
payments to the Association.
(b) RIGHT OF CLAIMANT TO BRING SUIT. If a claim under paragraph (a) of
this section is not paid in full by the Association within thirty (30) days
after a written claim has been received by the Association, the claimant may at
any time thereafter bring suit against the Association to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim and if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be
entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or defending such claim. It
shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a
claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered to the
Association) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make
it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law (had the Association
been incorporated as a Delaware corporation) for the Association to indemnify
the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense
shall be on the Association. Neither the failure of the Association (including
its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have
made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that
indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she
has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in the Delaware General
Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Association (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the
claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
presumption that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct.
(c) NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The right to indemnification and the
payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final
disposition conferred in this section shall not be exclusive of any other right
which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of
the Articles of Association, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise.
(d) INSURANCE. The Association may maintain insurance, at its expense, to
protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Association
or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Association
would have had the power to indemnify such person against such expense,
liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law (had the
Association been incorporated as a Delaware corporation); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that no such insurance shall protect directors, officers or employees against
any expense, liability, or loss caused by the issuance of a formal order by an
appropriate bank regulatory agency assessing civil money penalties against a
bank director or employee.
<PAGE>
ELEVENTH. These articles of association may be amended at any regular or
special meeting of the shareholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the stock of this association, unless the vote of the holders of a
greater amount of stock is required by law, and in that case by the vote of the
holders of such greater amount.
These Articles of Association supersede all prior Articles of Association
and to this end all prior Articles of Association are hereby repealed.
The foregoing is a true and correct copy of the Articles of Association of
Boatmen's First National Bank of Oklahoma as amended as of this date, November
21, 1991.

ARTICLE 2
DIRECTORS
Section 1. NUMBER. The Board of Directors, hereinafter referred to as the
Board, shall be composed of not less than five nor more than twenty members. The
number of directors to be elected each year at the annual meeting of
shareholder(s) shall be determined by a vote of the shareholder(s) at such
meeting.
Section 2. QUALIFICATION, ELECTION AND TERM OF OFFICE. Directors shall
hold qualifying shares of stock of a value meeting the requirements of the
National Bank Act and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto. Directors shall
be elected at the annual shareholder's(s') meeting or at any special
shareholder's(s') meeting, or by the Board to fill vacancies, as provided by law
or by these Bylaws, except that no person shall be nominated who shall have
attained the age of 72 on or before the meeting at which directors are to be
elected, or, who does not have a business or civic activity involving
substantial time and executive responsibility.
Each director shall take and subscribe his or her oath of office in form
and manner required by law before entering upon his or her duties of such
director. At each annual election each director shall be elected to hold office
for one year and until his or her successor is elected and has qualified, or
until his or her death, or until he or she shall resign or shall have become
disqualified or shall have been removed from office. Any director who fails to
own qualifying stock in the amount and manner provided by the National Bank Act
and regulations promulgated pursuant
2
<PAGE>
thereto shall be disqualified and, without the necessity of any formal
resignation, shall cease to be a director, provided that no action of the Board,
based upon the vote or written consent Of such disqualified director, shall be
invalidated by reason of such disqualification until notice of such
disqualification shall have been served upon or come to the attention of the
Board.
A maximum of sixteen outside directors, not employed by the Association,
may be elected to the Board and each shall be eligible to serve an eight-year
term; provided, however, each shall be required to stand for annual re-election.
These eight year terms shall be staggered to require the election of at least
two new outside directors annually. Any outside director who has served an
eight-year term or, in filling a vacancy, completed an eight-year term of
another person, is not eligible for re-election to the Board for a period of two
years.
A maximum of four inside directors, officers of the Association, may be
elected to the Board. Each shall not be subject to eight-year terms but each
shall be required to stand for annual re-election. Officers of this Association
who are otherwise qualified may be elected to the Board.
Section 3. ORGANIZATION MEETING. The Secretary, upon receiving the
certificate of the judges of the result of the election, shall cause the same to
be recorded in the minute book of the Association and shall announce the names
of those elected, and the meeting for the organization of the Board shall take
place at the banking house immediately after the adjournment of the
shareholder's(s') meeting. If, at the time fixed for the meeting of the
directors-elect, there shall not be a quorum present, the members present may
adjourn from time to time until a quorum is obtained. The first order of
business shall be to ascertain that the directors present have taken the oath of
office as prescribed by law.
Section 4. REGULAR MEETINGS. The Board shall hold a regular meeting at
the banking house, without notice on the fourth Thursday of every other month
beginning in January at such hour as the Board may see fit. Should the day
appointed for the regular meeting fall on a legal holiday or if the meeting
cannot be held for any reason, the meeting shall be held at the same time on the
next business day, or on such day and at such time as the Chairman of the Board
may direct.
Section 5. SPECIAL MEETING. Special meetings of the Board may be called at
any time by the Chairman of the Board. The Secretary shall call a special
meeting of the Board upon the written request of at least three directors.
Notice of such meeting shall be received by mail, or given in person or by
telephone, not less than twelve hours before the time set for the meeting.
Members of the Board may participate in such special
3
<PAGE>
meetings through use of conference telephone or similar communications
equipment, so long as all members participating in such meetings can hear one
another.
Section 6. SPECIAL ACTION BY THE BOARD. Any action required or permitted
to be taken at any meeting of the Board, or of any committee thereof may be
taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or committee, as the case
may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with
the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.
Section 7. QUORUM. A majority of the directors shall constitute a quorum at
any meeting, except when otherwise provided by law; but a lesser number may
adjourn any meeting, from time to time, and the meeting may be resumed from
point of adjournment, without further notice if a quorum is present.
Section 8. RETIREMENT OF DIRECTORS. A director shall not be eligible for
re-election at the annual meeting of shareholder(s) if the director has reached
his or her 72nd birthday, or if the director has retired from his or her
principal business association and not replaced it with a business or civic
activity involving substantial time and executive responsibility. Further, an
inside director shall retire from the Board at the time he or she retires from
active service with the Association.
Section 9. RESIGNATIONS AND REMOVAL. Any director may resign from the
board at any time by giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board or the
Secretary of the Association, and unless specified therein, the acceptance of
such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Any director may
be removed as a director by a vote of at least 3/4 of the whole number of
directors; however, no director shall be removed until he or she has first had
notice of intent to remove him or her, which notice shall set forth in
reasonable detail the reasons for removal, and given an opportunity to be heard
with respect to such reasons at a meeting of the Board duly called for such
purpose.
Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Section 8, a director shall
be automatically removed from the board and an immediate vacancy shall be
created with no action being required by any board member, upon the occurrence
of one of the following events:
1. Criminal conviction of or pleas of guilty or nolo contenders being
entered by any board member for (i) an offense constituting a felony
under any federal or state law, or (ii) any other crime involving
dishonesty or breach of trust;

PART II. LOANS TO SMALL BUSINESSES AND SMALL FARMS
Schedule RC-C, Part II is to be reported only with the June Report of Condition.
Report the number and amount currently outstanding as of June 30 of business loans with "original amounts" of $1,000,000 or less
and farm loans with "original amounts" of $500,000 or less. The following guidelines should be used to determine the "original
amount" of a loan: (1) for loans drawn down under lines of credit or loan commitments, the "original amount" of the loan is the
size of the line of credit or loan commitment when the line of credit or loan commitment was most recently approved, extended, or
renamed prior to the report date. However, if the amount currently outstanding as of the report date exceeds this size, the
"original amount" is the amount currently outstanding on the report date. (2) For loan participations and syndications, the
"original amount" of the loan participation or syndication is the entire amount of the credit originated by the lead lender. (3)
For all other loans, the "original amount" is the total amount of the loan at origination or the amount currently outstanding as
of the report date, whichever is larger.

This schedule must be completed by all banks as follows: Banks that reported
total assets of $1 billion or more in Schedule RC, item 12, for June 30, 1994,
must complete items 2 through 9 and Memoranda items 1 and 2. Banks with assets
of less than $1 billion must complete items 1 and 2 below or Schedule RC-R in
its entirety, depending on their response to item 1 below.

agency obligations, and 80 percent of U.S. Government-sponsored agency obligations plus the allowance for loan
and lease losses and selected off-balance sheet items as reported on Schedule RC-L (see instructions).

Legal Title of Bank City State
The management of the reporting bank may, if it wishes, submit a brief narrative
statement on the amounts reported in the Reports of Condition and Income. This
optional statement will be made available to the public, along with the publicly
available data in the Reports of Condition and Income, in response to any
request for individual bank report data. However, the information reported in
column A and in all of Memorandum 1 of Schedule RC-N is regarded as confidential
and will not be released to the public. BANKS CHOOSING TO SUBMIT THE NARRATIVE
STATEMENT SHOULD ENSURE THAT THE STATEMENT DOES NOT CONTAIN THE NAMES OR OTHER
IDENTIFICATIONS OF INDIVIDUAL BANK CUSTOMERS, REFERENCES TO THE AMOUNTS REPORTED
IN THE CONFIDENTIAL ITEMS IN SCHEDULE RC-N, OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION THAT THEY
ARE NOT WILLING TO HAVE MADE PUBLIC OR THAT WOULD COMPROMISE THE PRIVACY OF
THEIR CUSTOMERS. Banks choosing not to make a statement may check the "No
comment" box below and should make no entries of any kind in the space provided
for the narrative statement; i.e. DO NOT enter in this space such phrases as "No
statement," "Not applicable," "N/A," "No comment," and "None."
The optional statement must be entered on this sheet. The statement should not
exceed 100 words. Further, regardless of the number of words, the statement
must not exceed 750 characters, including punctuation, indentation, and
standard spacing between words and sentences. If any submission should exceed
750 characters, as defined, it will be truncated at 750 characters with no
notice to the submitting bank and the truncated statement will appear as the
bank's statement both on agency computerized records and in computer-file
releases to the public.
All information furnished by the bank in the narrative statement must be
accurate and not misleading. Appropriate efforts shall be taken by the
submitting bank to ensure the statement's accuracy. The statement must be
signed, in the space provided below, by a senior officer of the bank who thereby
attests to its accuracy.
If, subsequent to the original submission, material changes are submitted for
the data reported in the Reports of Condition and Income, the existing narrative
statement will be deleted from the files, and from disclosure; the bank, at its
option, may replace it with a statement, under signature, appropriate to the
amended data.
The optional narrative statement will appear in agency records and in release to
the public exactly as submitted (or amended as described in the preceding
paragraph) by the management of the bank (except for the truncation of
statements exceeding the 750-character limit described above). THE STATEMENT
WILL NOT BE EDITED OR SCREENED IN ANY WAY BY THE SUPERVISORY AGENCIES FOR
ACCURACY OR RELEVANCE. DISCLOSURE OF THE STATEMENT SHALL NOT SIGNIFY THAT ANY
FEDERAL SUPERVISORY AGENCY HAS VERIFIED OR CONFIRMED THE ACCURACY OF THE
INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN. A STATEMENT TO THIS EFFECT WILL APPEAR ON ANY
PUBLIC RELEASE OF THE OPTIONAL STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY THE MANAGEMENT OF THE
REPORTING BANK.

directorship, shall own a minimum of $1,000 aggregate par value of stock of
this association or a minimum par market value or equity interest of $1,000 of

TENTH (a) RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who was or is made a party or
is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(hereinafter a
<PAGE>
"proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or
she is the legal representative, or is or was a director or officer of the
Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to
employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action
in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any
other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Association to the fullest extent
authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law (as if the Association had
been incorporated as a Delaware corporation), as the same exists or may
hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent
that such amendment permits the Association to provide broader indemnification
rights that such law permitted the Association to provide prior to such
amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in
settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection
therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased
to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of
his or her heirs, executors and administrators; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, except
as provided in paragraph (b) hereof with respect to proceedings to enforce
rights to indemnification, the Association shall indemnify any such person in
connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only. if
such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of
the Association. The right to indemnification conferred in this section shall
be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Association
the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final
disposition; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Delaware General Corporation Law
(had the Association been incorporated as a Delaware corporation) requires, the
payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her
capacity in which service was or is rendered by such director or officer,
including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance
of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to
the Association of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer
to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final
judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under
this section or otherwise. The Association may, by action of its Board of
Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the Association
with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and
officers. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, no person shall be indemnified
hereunder by the Association against expenses, penalties, or other payments
incurred in an administrative proceeding or action (instituted by an appropriate
bank regulatory agency) which proceeding or action results in a final order
assessing civil money penalties or
<PAGE>
requiring affirmative action by an individual or individuals in the form of
payments to the Association.
(b) RIGHT OF CLAIMANT TO BRING SUIT. If a claim under paragraph (a) of
this section is not paid in full by the Association within thirty (30) days
after a written claim has been received by the Association, the claimant may at
any time thereafter bring suit against the Association to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim and if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be
entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or defending such claim. It
shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a
claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered to the
Association) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make
it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law (had the Association
been incorporated as a Delaware corporation) for the Association to indemnify
the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense
shall be on the Association. Neither the failure of the Association (including
its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have
made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that
indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she
has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in the Delaware General
Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Association (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the
claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
presumption that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct.
(c) NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The right to indemnification and the
payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final
disposition conferred in this section shall not be exclusive of any other right
which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of
the Articles of Association, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise.
(d) INSURANCE. The Association may maintain insurance, at its expense, to
protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Association
or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Association
would have had the power to indemnify such person against such expense,
liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law (had the
Association been incorporated as a Delaware corporation); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that no such insurance shall protect directors, officers or employees against
any expense, liability, or loss caused by the issuance of a formal order by an
appropriate bank regulatory agency assessing civil money penalties against a
bank director or employee.
<PAGE>
ELEVENTH. These articles of association may be amended at any regular or
special meeting of the shareholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the stock of this association, unless the vote of the holders of a
greater amount of stock is required by law, and in that case by the vote of the
holders of such greater amount.
These Articles of Association supersede all prior Articles of Association
and to this end all prior Articles of Association are hereby repealed.
The foregoing is a true and correct copy of the Articles of Association of
Boatmen's First National Bank of Oklahoma as amended as of this date, November
21, 1991.

equipment, so long as all members participating in such meetings can hear one
another.

may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with
the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.
Section 7. QUORUM. A majority of the directors shall constitute a quorum at
any meeting, except when otherwise provided by law; but a lesser number may

point of adjournment, without further notice if a quorum is present.
Section 8. RETIREMENT OF DIRECTORS. A director shall not be eligible for
re-election at the annual meeting of shareholder(s) if the director has reached
his or her 72nd birthday, or if the director has retired from his or her
principal business association and not replaced it with a business or civic
activity involving substantial time and executive responsibility. Further, an
inside director shall retire from the Board at the time he or she retires from
active service with the Association.
Section 9. RESIGNATIONS AND REMOVAL. Any director may resign from the
board at any time by giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board or the
Secretary of the Association, and unless specified therein, the acceptance of
such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Any director may
be removed as a director by a vote of at least 3/4 of the whole number of
directors; however, no director shall be removed until he or she has first had
notice of intent to remove him or her, which notice shall set forth in
reasonable detail the reasons for removal, and given an opportunity to be heard
with respect to such reasons at a meeting of the Board duly called for such
purpose.
Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Section 8, a director shall
be automatically removed from the board and an immediate vacancy shall be
created with no action being required by any board member, upon the occurrence

PART II. LOANS TO SMALL BUSINESSES AND SMALL FARMS
Schedule RC-C, Part II is to be reported only with the June Report of Condition.
Report the number and amount currently outstanding as of June 30 of business loans with "original amounts" of $1,000,000 or less
and farm loans with "original amounts" of $500,000 or less. The following guidelines should be used to determine the "original
amount" of a loan: (1) for loans drawn down under lines of credit or loan commitments, the "original amount" of the loan is the
size of the line of credit or loan commitment when the line of credit or loan commitment was most recently approved, extended, or
renamed prior to the report date. However, if the amount currently outstanding as of the report date exceeds this size, the
"original amount" is the amount currently outstanding on the report date. (2) For loan participations and syndications, the
"original amount" of the loan participation or syndication is the entire amount of the credit originated by the lead lender. (3)
For all other loans, the "original amount" is the total amount of the loan at origination or the amount currently outstanding as
of the report date, whichever is larger.
