Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of OGE Energy Corp. (the "Company") held on May 16, 2019, the shareholders:

Elected 10 members of the Board of Directors;
Ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's principal independent accountants for 2019;
Approved, on an advisory basis, named executive officer compensation; and
A shareholder proposal, which requests that the board of directors take the steps necessary to change the voting requirements in the company’s governing documents that call for a greater than simple majority, received a majority of the votes cast. Today’s vote on the shareholder proposal, however, does not change the current voting standards. This change would require an amendment to the company’s certificate of incorporation, which must be approved by holders of at least 80 percent of the company’s outstanding common stock.
 
The number of votes cast for, against or withheld, as well as the number of abstentions and broker non-votes as to each of such matters, were as stated below.
