This agreement has a termination date of March 8, 2024. At December 31, 2020, there were no intercompany borrowings under this agreement. (F)In March 2017, the Registrants entered into unsecured five-year revolving credit agreements totaling $900.0 million ($450.0 million for OGE Energy and $450.0 million for OG&E). Each of the revolving credit facilities contained an option, which could be exercised up to two times, to extend the term of the respective facility for an additional year. In March 2018, the Registrants each utilized one of those extensions to extend the maturity of their respective credit facility from March 8, 2022 to March 8, 2023. In January 2021, the Registrants each utilized the second of those extensions to extend the maturity of their respective credit facility from March 8, 2023 to March 8, 2024. Commitments of a single existing lender with respect to $50.0 million of OGE Energy's credit facility, however, were not extended and, unless the non-extending lender is replaced in accordance with the terms of the credit facility, such commitments will expire March 8, 2023. The non-extending lender is not party to the OG&E facility.
