Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
OGE Energy Corp. ("OGE Energy") is the parent company of Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company, a regulated electric utility with approximately 882,000 customers in Oklahoma and western Arkansas.
On May 19, 2022 at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders approved the OGE Energy Corp. 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan"). The Stock Incentive Plan is intended to replace the OGE Energy Corp. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Prior Plan"). The effective date of the Stock Incentive Plan is May 19, 2022, and the Stock Incentive Plan will terminate on May 19, 2032.
The maximum number of shares of common stock that OGE Energy may issue under the Stock Incentive Plan is 2,500,000 plus (i) shares remaining available for grant under the Prior Plan as of the effective date of the Stock Incentive Plan and (ii) shares subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan as of the effective date of the Stock Incentive Plan that are forfeited, cancelled, expire unexercised or lapse without issuance. The Stock Incentive Plan permits a committee of the Board to grant incentive awards in the form of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and performance-based units to designated officers, employees and non-employee directors of OGE Energy and its affiliates. A more detailed summary of the material features of the Stock Incentive Plan is set forth in OGE Energy's proxy statement for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 4, 2022. A copy of the Stock Incentive Plan is included as Appendix B to such proxy statement.
