The Company covenants with each Underwriter as follows:

         (a)     Compliance with Securities Regulations and Commission Requests. The Company, subject to Section 3(b), will comply with the requirements of Rule 424 and will notify the

-11-

Underwriters promptly, and confirm the notice in writing, (i) of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, or of the filing of any supplement to the Prospectus or any amended Prospectus, or of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or for additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Preliminary Prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Senior Notes for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act, and (v) of the occurrence of any event within the Prospectus Delivery Period (as defined in Section 3(d) below) as a result of which the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading. The Company will file the final Prospectus with the Commission within the time periods specified by Rule 424(b) and Rule 403A, 430B or 430C under the Securities Act, will file any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (including the Pricing Information set forth in Schedule B) to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Securities Act and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) or Rule 433, as applicable, was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

         (b)     Filing of Amendments; Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Prior to the later of the Closing Time or the termination of the Prospectus Delivery Period, before preparing, using, authorizing, approving, referring to or filing any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and before filing any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters a copy of the proposed Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, amendment or supplement for review and prior to the later of the Closing Time or the termination of the Prospectus Delivery Period, will not prepare, use, authorize, approve, refer to or file any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Representatives reasonably object.

         (c)     Delivery of Registration Statements.

        (d)     Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company has delivered to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of the Preliminary Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference therein as such Underwriter reasonably requested, and the Company hereby consents to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the 1933 Act.

The Prospectus, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T. As used herein, the term “Prospectus Delivery Period” means such period of time after the first date of the public offering of the Senior Notes as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus relating to the Senior Notes is required by law to be delivered (or required to be delivered but for Rule 172 under the Securities Act) in connection with sales of the Senior Notes by any Underwriter or dealer. The Representatives, on behalf of the Underwriters, shall promptly notify the Company after the Prospectus Delivery Period has been terminated.

If at any time during the Prospectus Delivery Period, any event occurs or condition exists as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters or for the Company, to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus or Time of Sale Information in order that the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Time of Sale Information, as applicable, will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, or if it is necessary, in the opinion of such counsel, at any such time to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus or Time of Sale Information in order to comply with the requirements of the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations, the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 3(b), such amendment or supplement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or Time of Sale Information comply with such requirements, and the Company will furnish to the Underwriters such number of copies of such amendment or supplement as the Underwriters may reasonably request.

          (i)     Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will furnish such information, execute such instruments and take such action as may be required to qualify the Senior Notes for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Senior Notes; provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

          (j)     Record Retention. The Company will, pursuant to reasonable procedures developed in good faith, retain, as and to the extent required under Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations, copies of each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

         (k)     No Stabilization. The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that could reasonably be expected to cause or result in any stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Senior Notes; provided, however, that this paragraph shall not apply to, and the Company does not accept any responsibility for, any stabilization activities conducted by the Underwriters, who shall remain solely responsible for such activities.

At the Closing Time, (a) the order of the Oklahoma Commission referred to in subparagraph (a)(xviii) of Section 1 hereof shall be in full force and effect substantially in the form in which originally entered and (b) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act shall then be pending before, or threatened by, the Commission.

In case any of the conditions specified above in this Section 7 shall not have been fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company by delivering written notice of termination to the Underwriters. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except to the extent provided in Section 4 hereof and except that Sections 1, 8, 9 and 10 shall survive any such termination and remain in full force and effect.

          (a)      The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Senior Notes), to which that Underwriter or controlling person may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information or the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information or the Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information or the Registration Statement, or in any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information

-22-

concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein which information consists solely of the information specified in Schedule D. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Underwriter or to any officer, employee or controlling person of that Underwriter.

         (b)      Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, each of its directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information or the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information or the Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of that Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, and shall reimburse the Company and any such director, officer or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information set forth on Schedule D. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have to the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person.

         (c)      Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, 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 claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,

-23-

however, that the Representatives shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the Representatives and those other Underwriters and their respective controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Underwriters against the Company under this Section 8 if, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, the Representatives shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to them and the other Underwriters that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, or (ii) representation of both the Representatives and the Company would present such counsel with a conflict of interest and in that event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Company (provided that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel and one local counsel). No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

SECTION 9. CONTRIBUTION.

If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the applicable series of Senior Notes to which such liability relates 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 on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the applicable series of Senior Notes to which such liability relates purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters with respect to the applicable series of Senior Notes to which such liability relates purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of such Senior Notes under this Agreement, in

-24-

each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters, the intent of the parties and their relative 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 contributions pursuant to this Section were to be 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 into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section with respect to a series of Senior Notes is to which liability relates, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which such applicable series of Senior Notes to which such liability relates underwritten by it and distributed to the public was offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay with respect to such series of Senior Notes by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 9 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations with respect to each series of Senior Notes and not joint.

SECTION10. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE DELIVERY.

All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the Senior Notes to the Underwriters.

SECTION11. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

         (a)      Termination; General. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time if: (i) there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any loss sustained by the Company 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 regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured, or any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, results of operations, properties, business affairs or business prospects of the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq

-25-

National Market or in the over-the-counter market, or trading in any securities of the Company or OGE Energy Corp. on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, shall have been suspended or minimum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or such market by the Commission, by such exchange or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, (iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal or state authorities or there is a material disruption in securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, (iv) since the time of the execution of this Agreement, the United States shall have become engaged in hostilities, there shall have been an escalation in hostilities involving the United States or there shall have been a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States, (v) there shall have occurred any calamity or crisis or such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such) as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering, sale or delivery of the Senior Notes being delivered at such Closing Time on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and in the Prospectus or (vi) the representations in Section 1(a)(ii) are incorrect in any respect.

       (b)      Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided, further, that Sections 1, 8, 9 and 10 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION12. DEFAULT BY ONE OR MORE OF THE UNDERWRITERS.

         (a)      If one or more of the Underwriters set forth in Schedule A fails at the Closing Time to purchase the Senior Notes which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Senior Notes”), the remaining Underwriter or Underwriters set forth in Schedule A (the “Non-Defaulting Underwriters”) will have the right, within 36 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the Non-Defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriter or underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Senior Notes in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Non-Defaulting Underwriters do not complete such arrangements within such 36-hour period, then:

            (i)     if the principal amount of Defaulted Senior Notes does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes to be purchased hereunder, each of the Non-Defaulting Underwriters will be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all Non-Defaulting Underwriters; or

           (ii)     if the principal amount of Defaulted Senior Notes exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes to be purchased hereunder, this Agreement will terminate with respect to the Senior Notes without liability on the part of any Non-Defaulting Underwriters.

-26-

No action taken pursuant to this Section 12(a) will relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement with respect to the Senior Notes, either the Non-Defaulting Underwriters or the Company will have the right to postpone the Closing Time for the Senior Notes for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Information or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

         (b)     As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 12.
