(A) Includes direct borrowings under the revolving credit agreements, commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit at December 31, 2024. (B) This bank facility is available to back up OGE Energy's commercial paper borrowings and to provide revolving credit borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility. (C) OGE Energy has a $120.0 million floating rate unsecured three-year credit agreement, of which $60.0 million is considered a revolving loan, which is included in the table above, and $60.0 million is considered a term loan. The credit agreement, under certain circumstances, may be increased to a maximum commitment limit of $155.0 million and includes a maximum leverage ratio of 0.70 to 1.0. The other covenants under this credit agreement are substantially the same as OGE Energy's existing $550.0 million revolving credit agreement. (D) This bank facility is available to back up OG&E's commercial paper borrowings and to provide revolving credit borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility. (E) OG&E has an intercompany borrowing agreement with OGE Energy whereby OG&E has access to up to $450.0 million of OGE Energy's revolving credit amount. This agreement has a termination date of December 18, 2029. At December 31, 2024, there was $0.2 million intercompany borrowings under this agreement. At December 31, 2024, OG&E had $247.6 million in advances from parent. (F) Represents the weighted-average interest rate for the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreements, commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit. (G) In December 2022, the Registrants entered into an amendment to their credit facility that gave each of the Registrants the option of extending such commitments for up to two additional one-year periods. On December 18, 2024, the Registrants utilized the second extension option for an additional one-year period extending the term until December 2029. OGE Energy's credit facility has a financial covenant requiring that OGE Energy maintains a maximum debt to capitalization ratio of 70 percent, as defined in such facility. OG&E's credit facility has a financial covenant requiring that OG&E maintains a maximum debt to capitalization ratio of 65 percent, as defined in such facility. The Registrants' facilities each also contain covenants which restrict the respective borrower and certain of its subsidiaries in respect of, among other things, mergers and consolidations, sales of all or substantially all assets, incurrence of liens and transactions with affiliates. The Registrants' facilities are each subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of any default, including, among others, payment defaults on such facilities, breach of representations, warranties and covenants, acceleration of indebtedness (other than intercompany and non-recourse indebtedness) of $100.0 million or more in the aggregate, change of control (as defined in each such facility), nonpayment of uninsured judgments in excess of $100.0 million and the occurrence of certain Employee Retirement Income Security Act and bankruptcy events, subject where applicable to specified cure periods. The Registrants' ability to access the commercial paper market could be adversely impacted by a credit ratings downgrade or major market disruptions. Pricing grids associated with the Registrants' credit facilities could cause annual fees and borrowing rates to increase if an adverse rating impact occurs. The impact of any future downgrade could include an increase in the costs of the Registrants' short-term borrowings, but a reduction in the Registrants' credit ratings would not result in any defaults or accelerations. Any future downgrade could also lead to higher long-term borrowing costs and, if below investment grade, would require the Registrants to post collateral or letters of credit. OG&E must obtain regulatory approval from the FERC in order to borrow on a short-term basis. OG&E has the necessary regulatory approvals to incur up to $1.0 billion in short-term borrowings at any one time for a two-year period beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2026.
