PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by and should be read together with the more detailed information and financial statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company

Company Background

We are a regulated public utility that generates, transmits, distributes and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. We are subject to regulation by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission ("OCC"), the Arkansas Public Service Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of OGE Energy, which is an energy and energy services provider offering physical delivery and related services for both electricity and natural gas primarily in the south central United States. We were incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory. We are the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, and our franchised service territory includes the Fort Smith, Arkansas area. We sold our retail gas business in 1928 and are no longer engaged in the gas distribution business.

We own and operate an interconnected electric generation, transmission and distribution system, which includes nine generating stations with a total capability of 6,229 megawatts ("MW"). We furnish retail electric service in 269 communities and their contiguous rural and suburban areas. During 2007, five other communities and two rural electric cooperatives in Oklahoma and western Arkansas purchased electricity from us for resale. Our service area covers approximately 30,000 square miles in Oklahoma and western Arkansas, including Oklahoma City, the largest city in Oklahoma, and Fort Smith, Arkansas, the second largest city in that state. Of the 269 communities that we serve, 243 are located in Oklahoma and 26 are located in Arkansas. We derived approximately 88% of our total electric operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 from sales in Oklahoma and the remainder from sales in Arkansas.

Our principal executive offices are located at 321 North Harvey, Post Office Box 321, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73101-0321. Our telephone number is (405) 553-3000.

Company Strategy

We have been focused on increased investment to improve reliability and meet load growth, replace infrastructure equipment, replace aging transmission and distribution systems, provide new products and services and deploy newer technology that improves operational, financial and environmental performance. As part of this plan, we have taken, or have committed to take, the following actions:

•: we purchased a 77 percent interest in the 520 MW natural gas-fired combined cycle NRG McClain Station in July 2004;
•: we entered into an agreement in February 2006 to engineer, procure and construct a wind generation energy system for a 120 MW wind farm in northwestern Oklahoma. The wind farm was fully in service in January 2007;
•: we announced in early 2007 a six-year construction initiative that is estimated to include up to $2.4 billion in major projects designed to expand capacity, enhance reliability and improve environmental performance. This six-year construction initiative also includes strengthening and expanding the electric transmission, distribution and substation systems and replacing aging infrastructure;

S-4

•: we announced in October 2007 our goal to increase our wind power generation from our then current 170 MWs to 770 MWs by 2011;
•: we announced in October 2007 our desire to begin building a high-capacity transmission line from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to Woodward, Oklahoma that would eventually be extended from Woodward to Guymon, Oklahoma in the Oklahoma Panhandle. This line would be intended to be used by us and others to deliver wind-generated power from western and northwestern Oklahoma to the rest of Oklahoma and other states;
•: we have also previously committed to the Southwest Power Pool ("SPP") to build the Oklahoma portion of the western half of the SPP "X-Plan" that includes transmission lines from Woodward to Tuco, Texas and from Woodward to Spearville, Kansas;
•: we entered into agreements in January 2008 to purchase a 51 percent ownership interest in the 1,230 MW Redbud power plant; and
•: with the previously announced six-year construction initiative discussed above, and including the acquisition of the Redbud power plant, our 2008 to 2013 capital expenditures (excluding environmental expenditures related to Best Available Retrofit Technology) are expected to be approximately $3.1 billion.

The increase in wind power generation, the building of the transmission lines and the acquisition of the Redbud power plant are all subject to numerous regulatory and other approvals, including appropriate regulatory treatment from the OCC and, in the case of the transmission lines, the SPP.

The Offering

The following summary contains basic information about this offering. Because this is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a more complete understanding of this offering, we encourage you to read this entire prospectus supplement, including "Supplemental Description of Senior Notes," the accompanying prospectus, including "Description of Senior Notes," and the documents referred to in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.


Issuer		Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company.
Securities Offered		$250,000,000 principal amount of 6.350% Senior Notes, Series due September 1, 2018.
Maturity		September 1, 2018.
Interest Rate		6.350% per year.
Interest Payment Dates		March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on March 1, 2009.
Ranking		The Senior Notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness.

As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we do not have any plans to issue secured indebtedness.
Optional Redemption		We may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time at a "make-whole" redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Senior Notes being redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the redemption date), discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable treasury rate plus 45 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. See "Supplemental Description of Senior Notes—Redemption Provisions" for more information.

S-6

Reopening of Series		We may, from time to time, without the consent of the holders of the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement, reopen this series of Senior Notes and issue additional Senior Notes with the same terms (including maturity and interest payment terms), except for the public offering price and issue date, as the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement. Any such additional Senior Notes, together with the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement, will constitute a single series under the Indenture. See "Supplemental Description of Senior Notes—Reopening of Series" for more information.

Pending such use, we will use the proceeds to temporarily repay a portion of our outstanding commercial paper borrowings, as well as short-term borrowings from our parent, OGE Energy, both of which were incurred in part to fund our daily operational needs. See "Use of Proceeds."
Trustee		UMB Bank, N.A.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below as well as any cautionary language or other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, before purchasing the Senior Notes offered hereby. The risks described therein or set forth below are those that we consider to be the most significant to your decision whether to invest in the Senior Notes. If any of the events described therein or set forth below occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially harmed. In addition, we may not be able to make payments on the Senior Notes, and this could result in your losing all or part of your investment.

The Senior Notes would have a claim that is junior with respect to the assets securing any secured debt that we may issue.

The Senior Notes will be senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness. At June 30, 2008, we had seven other series of our senior notes outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $910.0 million. An aggregate of $350.0 million of those senior notes have provisions that limit (subject to certain exceptions) our ability to issue secured debt unless, at the time the secured debt is issued, we also equally secure such outstanding senior notes. The Senior Notes offered hereby will not contain this provision. As a result, if in the future we were to issue secured debt, $350.0 million of senior notes would also become secured. In such case, the Senior Notes offered hereby would be effectively subordinated to such secured debt. There is no limit on the amount of debt that we may issue and, in the future, we may issue debt which includes provisions similar to those applicable to our other outstanding senior notes.

Any reductions in our credit ratings could increase our financing costs and could cause the value of the Senior Notes to decline.

We cannot assure you that any of our current ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances in the future so warrant. The impact of any future downgrade would result in an increase in the cost of short-term borrowings but would not result in any defaults or accelerations as a result of the rating changes. Any lowering of the ratings of the Senior Notes would likely reduce the value of the Senior Notes.

We may be able to incur substantially more indebtedness, which may increase the risks created by our indebtedness.

The terms of the indenture governing our senior notes, including the Senior Notes offered hereby, do not prohibit us from incurring additional indebtedness, and therefore, we may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness. If we incur additional indebtedness, the related risks that we now face may intensify.

There is no existing market for the Senior Notes and we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop.

There is no existing market for the Senior Notes and we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop. If a market for the Senior Notes were to develop, future trading prices would depend on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, our operating results and the market for similar securities. We do not intend to apply for listing or quotation of the Senior Notes on any securities exchange or trading market. As a result, it may be difficult for you to find a buyer for your Senior Notes at the time you want to sell them, and even if you find a buyer, you might not get the price you want.

S-10

USE OF PROCEEDS

We anticipate that the net proceeds from the offering (after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses) will be approximately $247.1 million. We intend to add the net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes to our general funds and will apply them to fund a portion of the acquisition of the 1,230 MW Redbud power plant described in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, which we have incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Pending such use, we intend to apply the proceeds to temporarily repay a portion of our outstanding commercial paper borrowings, as well as short-term borrowings from our parent, OGE Energy, both of which were incurred in part to fund our daily operational needs. We intend to fund the balance of our portion of the costs to acquire the Redbud power plant, approximately $185 million, through the issuance of short-term debt, which may be replaced with long-term debt at a later date. At August 31, 2008, we had outstanding approximately $358.7 million of commercial paper borrowings at a weighted average interest rate of 2.83% and approximately $77.3 million in advances from our parent at a weighted average interest rate of 2.82%.

S-11

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of June 30, 2008.

		As of June 30, 2008

		Millions of Dollars		Percent of Capitalization
		(Unaudited)
Short-term debt (including advances from parent)		$	422.9		14.7	%
Long-term debt			1,042.4		36.3	%

	Total Debt		1,465.3		51.0	%
Stockholder's equity			1,407.9		49.0	%

Total capitalization, including short-term debt		$	2,873.2		100.0	%

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
(UNAUDITED)

Our ratio of earnings to fixed charges were as follows for the periods indicated in the table below.

					Year Ended December 31,

	Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2008		Six Months Ended June 30, 2008		Year Ended December 31,
	Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2008		Six Months Ended June 30, 2008		2007		2006		2005		2004		2003
Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges		4.02		1.61		4.78		4.43		4.44		4.76		5.11

For purposes of computing our ratio of earnings to fixed charges, (1) earnings consist of pre-tax income (excluding interest related to FIN 48 liabilities) plus fixed charges, less allowance for borrowed funds used during construction; and (2) fixed charges consist of interest on long-term debt (excluding interest related to FIN 48 liabilities), related amortization, interest on short-term borrowings and a calculated portion of rents considered to be interest.

Assuming that our variable interest rate debt continues at interest rates in effect on June 30, 2008, the annual interest requirement on our long-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2008, was approximately $59.3 million.

S-12

SUPPLEMENTAL DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR NOTES

Please read the following information concerning the Senior Notes in conjunction with the statements under "Description of Senior Notes" in the accompanying prospectus, which the following information supplements and, if there are any inconsistencies, supersedes. The following description is not complete. The Senior Notes will be issued under the Indenture dated as of October 1, 1995, as supplemented (the "Indenture"), that we have entered into with UMB Bank, N.A., as trustee (the "Trustee"). The Indenture is described in the accompanying prospectus and is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement under which the Senior Notes are being offered and sold.

General

We will offer $250,000,000 of 6.350% Senior Notes, Series due September 1, 2018 as a series of notes under the Indenture. The entire principal amount of such series of Senior Notes will mature and become due and payable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, on September 1, 2018.

Ranking; No Limitations on Liens or Sale and Lease-Back Transactions

The Senior Notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness. However, the Senior Notes will be subordinated to any secured indebtedness that we may issue, as to the assets securing such indebtedness. We currently have no secured indebtedness and no subordinated indebtedness. The Senior Notes offered hereby will not contain any provisions limiting our ability to issue secured debt or enter into sale and leaseback transactions. See "No Limitations on Liens or Sale and Leaseback Transactions" in the accompanying prospectus for more information. As a result, if in the future we were to issue secured debt, the Senior Notes offered hereby would be effectively subordinated to the secured debt. There is no limit on the amount of debt that we may issue and, in the future, we may issue debt which includes provisions different than those applicable to the Senior Notes offered hereby.

Interest Payments

The Senior Notes will bear interest at the annual rate set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement beginning on the day the Senior Notes are issued. The interest will be payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2009. If such date is not a business day, the payment of interest will be made on the next succeeding business day without adjustment. Interest will be paid to the person in whose name the Senior Note is registered at the close of business on the February 15 or August 15 immediately preceding such March 1 or September 1. We will compute the amount of interest payable on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Reopening of Series

We may, from time to time, without the consent of the holders of the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement, reopen this series of Senior Notes and issue additional Senior Notes with the same terms (including maturity and interest payment terms), except for the public offering price and issue date, as the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement. Any such additional Senior Notes, together with the Senior Notes offered by this prospectus supplement, will constitute a single series under the Indenture.

Optional Redemption

We may redeem the Senior Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at a redemption price for the Senior Notes equal to the greater of:

•: 100% of the principal amount of such Senior Notes to be redeemed; or

S-13

•: the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on such Senior Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate plus 45 basis points;

plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the redemption date.

"treasury rate" means, with respect to any redemption date:

•: the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated "H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the maturity corresponding to the comparable treasury issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining life (as defined below), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the comparable treasury issue will be determined and the treasury rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or
•: if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the comparable treasury issue, calculated using a price for the comparable treasury issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the comparable treasury price for such redemption date.

The treasury rate will be calculated on the third business day preceding the date fixed for redemption.

"comparable treasury issue" means the U.S. Treasury security selected by an independent investment banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term ("remaining life") of the Senior Notes that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Senior Notes.

"comparable treasury price" means (1) the average of five reference treasury dealer quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest reference treasury dealer quotations, or (2) if the independent investment banker obtains fewer than four such reference treasury dealer quotations, the average of all such quotations.

"independent investment banker" means either UBS Securities LLC, Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC, or another independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by us.

"reference treasury dealer" means (1) UBS Securities LLC and its successors, and one other primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a "primary treasury dealer") selected by Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and its successors, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a primary treasury dealer, we will substitute therefor another primary treasury dealer and (2) any other primary treasury dealer selected by us after consultation with the independent investment banker.

"reference treasury dealer quotations" means, with respect to each reference treasury dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the independent investment banker, of the bid and asked prices for the comparable treasury issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal

S-14

amount) quoted in writing to the independent investment banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

We will mail a notice of redemption to each holder of the Senior Notes to be redeemed by first-class mail at least 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Unless we default on payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Senior Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If fewer than all of the Senior Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select, not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, the particular Senior Notes or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding Senior Notes not previously called by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

If at the time of mailing the notice of redemption, we have not irrevocably directed the Trustee to redeem the Senior Notes called for redemption, the notice may state that the redemption is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption and that the notice will be of no effect unless such moneys are received on or prior to such redemption date.

The Senior Notes do not provide for any sinking fund.

Forms and Denomination

The Senior Notes will be issued as one or more global securities in the name of a nominee of The Depository Trust Company and will be available only in book-entry form. See "Book-Entry System" in the accompanying prospectus. The Senior Notes will be available for purchase in a minimum denomination of $1,000 and in integral multiples thereof.

Same-Day Settlement and Payment

We will make all payments of principal and interest on the Senior Notes to The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") in immediately available funds. The Senior Notes will trade in the same-day funds settlement system until maturity. Purchases of Senior Notes in secondary market trading must be in immediately available funds.

S-15

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus supplement, we have agreed to sell to each of the underwriters named below, and each of the underwriters has severally agreed to purchase from us, the respective amount of Senior Notes set forth opposite its name below:

Underwriters	Principal Amount of Senior Notes

UBS Securities LLC	$	150,000,000
Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC		100,000,000

	$	250,000,000

If any of the Senior Notes are purchased by the underwriters under the underwriting agreement, then all of the Senior Notes must be purchased.

The underwriters have advised us that they propose initially to offer the Senior Notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. They also may offer the Senior Notes to dealers at the public offering price less a concession not in excess of 0.40% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes. The underwriters may allow, and the dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of 0.25% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes on sales to other dealers. After the initial offering of the Senior Notes to the public is completed, the underwriters may change the offering price and the concessions.

The following table shows the underwriting discounts that we will pay to the underwriters in connection with this offering of the Senior Notes.

		Per Senior Note		Total

6.350% Senior Notes, Series due September 1, 2018		0.650%		$1,625,000

We estimate that our total expenses for this offering, not including the underwriting discounts, will be $400,000.

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Senior Notes. The underwriters have informed us that they may make a market in the Senior Notes from time to time. The underwriters are under no obligation to make a market in the Senior Notes and any such market may be discontinued without notice.

In connection with the offering of the Senior Notes, the rules of the SEC permit the underwriters to engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the Senior Notes. These transactions may consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the Senior Notes. If the underwriters create a short position in the Senior Notes (that is, if they sell a larger principal amount of the Senior Notes than is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement), the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing Senior Notes in the open market.

In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might otherwise be in the absence of those purchases. Neither we nor any of the underwriters can predict the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Senior Notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters can assure you that the underwriters will in fact engage in these transactions, or that these transactions, once begun, will not be discontinued without notice by the underwriters.

S-16

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against some liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Alternatively, we may be required to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make as a result of these liabilities.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the underwriters and their affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, advisory or commercial banking services to us and our affiliates for which they have received, or may receive, customary fees and expenses.

Affiliates of the underwriters are participants in our credit facility and some of OGE Energy's credit facilities.

LEGAL OPINIONS

Legal opinions relating to the Senior Notes will be rendered by our counsel, Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns, P.L.L.C., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and Jones Day, Chicago, Illinois. Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns, P.L.L.C. will pass on matters pertaining to local laws and as to these matters other counsel will rely on their opinions.

As of August 31, 2008, Mr. Hugh D. Rice, of counsel to Rainey, Ross, Rice & Binns, P.L.L.C., owned a beneficial interest of approximately 3,000 shares of common stock of our parent company, OGE Energy.

Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the underwriters by Chapman and Cutler LLP, Chicago, Illinois.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") utilizing a "shelf" registration process. Under this process, we may, from time to time over the next several years, sell the Securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $700,000,000. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the Securities we may offer. Each time we sell any of the Securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement together with the additional information described under the heading "Where You Can Find More Information." For more details, you should read the exhibits filed with the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. In this prospectus, "we," "us," "our" and "our company" refer to Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference contain statements that are not historical fact and constitute "forward-looking statements." Such forward-looking statements are intended to be identified by the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "objective", "plan", "possible", "potential", "project" and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our future results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. These statements are necessarily based upon various assumptions involving judgments with respect to the future and other risks, including, among others:

•: general economic conditions, including the availability of credit, the impact on capital expenditures and actions of rating agencies;
•: our ability and the ability of our parent, OGE Energy Corp., to obtain financing on favorable terms;
•: prices and availability of electricity, coal and natural gas;
•: business conditions in the energy industry;
•: competitive factors, including the extent and timing of the entry of additional competition in the markets we serve;
•: unusual weather;
•: availability and prices of raw materials for current and future construction projects;
•: federal or state legislation and regulatory decisions (including the approval of regulatory filings related to the proposed acquisition of the Redbud power plant) and initiatives that affect cost and investment recovery, have an impact on rate structures or affect the speed and degree to which competition enters our markets;
•: environmental laws and regulations that may impact our operations;
•: changes in accounting standards, rules or guidelines;
•: the discontinuance of regulated accounting principles under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 71, "Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation";
•: creditworthiness of suppliers, customers and other contractual parties; and
•: other risk factors listed from time to time in the reports we file with the SEC.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the results and events contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus will in fact transpire. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail under "Business," "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Notes to Financial Statements" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and other documents on file with the SEC. You may obtain copies of these documents as described under "Where You Can Find More Information." We may also describe additional risk factors in the applicable prospectus supplement.

OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY

We generate, transmit, distribute and sell electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. We are subject to regulation by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, the Arkansas Public Service Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of OGE Energy Corp., which is an energy and energy services provider offering physical delivery and related services for both electricity and natural gas primarily in the south central United States. We were incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory. We are the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, and our franchised service territory includes the Fort Smith, Arkansas area. We sold our retail gas business in 1928 and are no longer engaged in the gas distribution business.

We own and operate an interconnected electric generation, transmission and distribution system, which includes nine generating stations with a total capability of 6,229 megawatts. We furnish retail electric service in 269 communities and their contiguous rural and suburban areas. During 2007, five other communities and two rural electric cooperatives in Oklahoma and western Arkansas purchased electricity from us for resale. Our service area covers approximately 30,000 square miles in Oklahoma and western Arkansas, including Oklahoma City, the largest city in Oklahoma, and Fort Smith, Arkansas, the second largest city in that state. Of the 269 communities that we serve, 243 are located in Oklahoma and 26 are located in Arkansas. We derived approximately 88% of our total electric operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 from sales in Oklahoma and the remainder from sales in Arkansas.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Securities involves risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our Securities, you should carefully consider any risk factors contained in a prospectus supplement, as well as the risk factors set forth in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading "Risk Factors" and other filings we may make from time to time with the SEC. Such factors could affect actual results and cause results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on our behalf. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently view as immaterial may also affect our business operations.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless we indicate otherwise in any applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials, we intend to add the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities to our general funds and to use those proceeds for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, repayment of short-term debt and refunding of long-term debt at maturity or otherwise. The specific use of the proceeds of a particular series of the Securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

(unaudited)

					Year Ended December 31,

	Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2008		Three Months Ended March 31, 2008		Year Ended December 31,
	Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2008		Three Months Ended March 31, 2008		2007		2006		2005		2004		2003
Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges		4.20		0.08		4.78		4.43		4.44		4.76		5.11

As noted above, our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is a deficiency as it is less than one-to-one coverage. The amount of the deficiency was approximately $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Due to normal seasonal fluctuations within our business and other factors, our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are

not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008 or for any future period.

Assuming that our variable interest rate debt continues at interest rates in effect on March 31, 2008, the annual interest requirement on our long-term debt outstanding at March 31, 2008 was approximately $60.0 million.

DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR NOTES

The description below contains summaries of selected provisions of the indenture under which our Securities will be issued. These summaries are not complete. The indenture applicable to our Securities has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. You should read the indenture for provisions that may be important to you. In the summaries below, we have included references to section numbers of the indenture so that you can easily locate these provisions.

We are not required to issue future issues of indebtedness under the indenture described in this prospectus. We are free to use other indentures or documentation, containing provisions different from those described in this prospectus, in connection with future issues of other indebtedness not under this registration statement. As of March 31, 2008, there were seven series of senior notes, aggregating $910.0 million in principal amount, outstanding under the Indenture (as defined below).

The Securities will be represented either by global securities registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), as depository ("Depository"), or its nominee, or by securities in certificated form issued to the registered owners, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. See "Book-Entry System" in this prospectus.

General

We may issue the Securities in one or more new series under an indenture dated as of October 1, 1995 between us and UMB Bank, N.A., as successor trustee (the "Trustee"). This indenture, as previously supplemented by supplemental indentures and as to be supplemented by a new supplemental indenture for each series of Securities, is referred to in this prospectus as the "Indenture."

The Securities will be unsecured obligations and will rank on a parity with our other unsecured indebtedness, including other senior notes previously issued under the Indenture and senior notes issued under the Indenture subsequent to the issuance of the Securities. We refer in this prospectus to securities issued under the Indenture, whether previously issued or to be issued in the future, including the Securities, as the "Notes." The amount of Notes that we may issue under the Indenture is not limited.

The Securities may be issued in one or more series, may be issued at various times, may have differing maturity dates and may bear interest at differing rates. The prospectus supplement applicable to each issue of Securities will specify:

•: the title, aggregate principal amount and offering price of that series of Securities;
•: the interest rate or rates, or method of calculation of the rate or rates, on that series, and the date from which the interest will accrue;
•: the dates on which interest will be payable;

•: the record dates for payments of interest;
•: the date on which the Securities of that series will mature;
•: any redemption terms;
•: the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions upon which the Securities of that series may be repaid, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder thereof; and
•: other specific terms applicable to the Securities of that series.

Any special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to Securities sold at an original issue discount and any special United States federal income tax or other considerations applicable to any Securities that are denominated in a currency other than United States dollars will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to that series of Securities.

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Securities will be denominated in United States dollars in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, there will be no provisions in the Indenture or the Securities that require us to redeem, or permit the holders to cause a redemption or repurchase of, the Securities or that otherwise protect the holders in the event that we incur substantial additional indebtedness, whether or not in connection with a change in control of our company. However, any change in control transaction that involves the incurrence of substantial additional long-term indebtedness by us could require approval of state utility regulatory authorities and, possibly, of federal utility regulatory authorities.

Registration, Transfer And Exchange

Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and kind. (Section 2.06 of the Indenture.)

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, Securities may be presented for registration of transfer (duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer), at the office of the Trustee maintained for that purpose and referred to in the applicable prospectus supplement, without service charge and upon payment of any taxes and other governmental charges as described in the Indenture. Any transfer or exchange will be effected upon the Trustee's satisfaction with the documents of title and indemnity of the person making the request. (Sections 2.06 and 2.07 of the Indenture.)

The Trustee will not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Securities of a series that is selected, called or being called for redemption except, in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be so redeemed. (Section 2.06 of the Indenture.) See "Book-Entry System" in this prospectus.

Payment and Paying Agents

Principal, interest and premium, if any, on Securities issued in the form of global securities will be paid in the manner described below under the heading "Book-Entry System." Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, interest on Securities that are in the form of certificated securities will be paid by check mailed to the holder at that holder's address as it appears in the register for the Securities maintained by the Trustee; however, a holder of $10,000,000 or more of Notes having the same interest payment dates will be entitled to receive payments of interest by wire transfer to a bank within the continental United States, if appropriate wire transfer instructions have

been received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable record date. (Section 2.12 of the Indenture.) Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the principal, interest at maturity and premium, if any, on Securities in the form of certificated securities will be payable in immediately available funds at the office of the Trustee upon presentation of the Securities. (Section 2.12 of the Indenture.)

All monies paid by us to a paying agent for the payment of principal, interest or premium on any Securities that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after that principal, interest or premium has become due and payable will be repaid to us and the holders of those Securities may thereafter look only to us for payment of that principal, interest or premium. (Section 5.04 of the Indenture.)

Events of Default

The following are events of default under the Indenture:

•: default in the payment of principal and premium, if any, on any Note issued under the Indenture when due and payable and continuance of that default for a period of 5 days;
•: default in the payment of interest on any Note issued under the Indenture when due and continuance of that default for 30 days;
•: default in the performance or breach of any of our other covenants or warranties in the Indenture and the continuation of that default or breach for 90 days after written notice to us as provided in the Indenture; and
•: specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of our company.

(Section 8.01 of the Indenture.)

Acceleration of Maturity. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all Notes to be due and payable immediately. At any time after an acceleration of the Notes has been declared, but before a judgment or decree of the immediate payment of the principal amount of the Notes has been obtained, if we pay or deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and the principal and any premium which has become due otherwise than by acceleration and all defaults have been cured or waived, then that payment or deposit will cause an automatic rescission and annulment of the acceleration of the Notes. (Section 8.01 of the Indenture.)

Indemnification of Trustee. The Trustee generally will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless the holders have offered reasonable security to the Trustee. (Section 9.02 of the Indenture.) The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes generally will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, relating to the Notes.

Right to Direct Proceedings. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes generally will be able to waive any past default or event of default except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes. (Section 8.07 of the Indenture.) Each holder has the right to institute a proceeding relating to the Indenture, but this right is subject to conditions precedent specified in the Indenture. (Section 8.04 of the Indenture.)

Notice of Default. The Trustee is required to give the holders notice of the occurrence of a default within 90 days of the default, unless the default is cured or waived. Except in the case of a payment default on the Notes, however, the Trustee may withhold notice if it determines in good faith that it is in the interest of holders to do so. (Section 8.08 of the Indenture.) We are required to deliver to the

Trustee each year a certificate as to whether or not we are in compliance with the conditions and covenants under the Indenture. (Section 6.06 of the Indenture.)

Modification

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we and the Trustee may modify and amend the Indenture and the Securities from time to time. Depending upon the type of amendment, we may not need the consent or approval of any of the holders of the Notes, or we may need either the consent or approval of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes or the consent or approval of each holder affected by the proposed amendment.

We will not need the consent of the holders for the following types of amendments:

•: adding to our covenants for the benefit of the holders or surrendering a right given to us in the Indenture;
•: adding security for the Notes; or
•: making various other modifications, generally of a ministerial or immaterial nature. (Section 13.01 of the Indenture.)

We will need the consent of the holders of each outstanding Note affected by a proposed amendment if the amendment would cause any of the following to occur:

•: a change in the maturity date or redemption date of any Note;
•: a reduction in the interest rate or extension of the time of payment of interest;
•: a reduction in the principal amount of any Note, the interest or premium payable on any Note, or the amount of principal that could be declared due and payable prior to the stated maturity;
•: a change in the currency of any payment of principal, premium or interest on any Note;
•: an impairment of the right of a holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment relating to any Note;
•: a reduction in the percentage of outstanding Notes necessary to consent to the modification or amendment of the Indenture; or
•: a modification of these requirements or a reduction to less than a majority of the percentage of outstanding Notes necessary to waive any past default. (Section 13.02 of the Indenture.)

Amendments other than those described in the above two paragraphs will require the approval of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

Defeasance and Discharge

We may be discharged from all obligations relating to the Notes and the Indenture (except for specified obligations such as obligations to register the transfer or exchange of Notes, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Notes and maintain paying agencies) if we irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust for the benefit of holders of Notes, money or United States government obligations, or any combination thereof, sufficient to make all payments of principal, premium and interest on the Notes on the dates those payments are due. To discharge those obligations, we must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance or discharge of the Indenture. If we discharge our obligations as described above, the holders of Notes must look only to the funds deposited with the Trustee, and not us, for payments on the Notes. (Section 5.01 of the Indenture.)

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets; No Financial Covenants

We will not merge into any other corporation or sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all our assets unless the successor or transferee corporation assumes by supplemental indenture our obligations to pay the principal, interest and any premium on all the Notes and our obligation to perform every covenant in the Indenture that we are supposed to perform or observe. Upon any merger, sale or transfer of all or substantially all of our assets, the successor or transferee corporation will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise all of our rights and powers under the Indenture with the same effect as if the successor corporation had been named as us in the Indenture, and we will be released from all obligations under the Indenture. The Indenture defines all or substantially all of our assets as being 50% or more of our total assets as shown on our balance sheet as of the end of the prior year and specifically permits any sale, transfer or conveyance during a calendar year of less than 50% of our total assets without the consent of the holders of the Notes. (Sections 12.01 and 12.02 of the Indenture.)

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Indenture will not contain any financial or other similar restrictive covenants or restrict our ability to issue secured debt or grant liens on assets.

No Limitations on Liens or Sale and Leaseback Transactions

As of March 31, 2008, we had seven series of our Notes issued under the Indenture outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $910.0 million. Although subject to earlier redemption at our option, the outstanding Notes mature between January 15, 2016 and February 1, 2038. Several of these series of our Notes have provisions that limit (subject to certain exceptions) our ability to issue secured debt unless, at the time the secured debt is issued, we also equally secure such outstanding Notes. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Securities offered hereby will not contain this provision. As a result, if in the future we were to issue secured debt, the outstanding series of Notes containing such limitation would also become secured. In such case, the Securities offered hereby would be effectively subordinated to the secured debt. There is no limit on the amount of debt that we may issue and, in the future, we may issue debt that includes provisions similar to those applicable to the outstanding Notes discussed above.

In addition, although some of our other Notes also have provisions that limit our ability to enter into sale and lease-back transactions, unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Securities offered hereby will not contain this provision.

Resignation or Removal of Trustee

The Trustee may resign at any time by notifying us in writing and specifying the day that the resignation is to take effect. The resignation will not take effect, however, until a successor trustee has been appointed. (Section 9.10 of the Indenture.)

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee at any time. In addition, so long as no event of default or event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would become an event of default has occurred and is continuing, we may remove the Trustee upon (1) notice to the Trustee and the holder of each Note outstanding under the Indenture and (2) appointment of a successor Trustee. (Section 9.10 of the Indenture.)

Concerning the Trustee

UMB Bank, N.A. is the Trustee under the Indenture. We and our affiliates maintain banking relationships with the Trustee in the ordinary course of business. The Trustee also acts as trustee for some of our other securities and securities of our affiliates.

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Securities. The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC's partnership nominee, or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for each issue of Securities, each in the aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. If, however, the aggregate principal amount of any issue exceeds $500 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $500 million of principal amount, and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal amount of such issue.

DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org.

Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Securities is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults and proposed amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.

Redemption notices with respect to any Securities shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co., nor any other DTC nominee, will consent or vote with respect to Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's Issuing/Paying Agent General Operating Procedures, or the "MMI Procedures." Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

Redemption proceeds, distributions and interest payments on the Securities will be made to Cede & Co. or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from us, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions and interest payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is our responsibility, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

We may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but neither we nor any underwriter take any responsibility for the accuracy of this information.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We intend to sell the Securities offered by this prospectus to or through underwriters or dealers and may also sell the Securities directly to a limited number of institutional purchasers or through agents, as described in the prospectus supplement relating to an issue of Securities. The distribution of the Securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices,

which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.

In connection with the sale of the Securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of Securities for whom they may act as agents in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell Securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of Securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit on the resale of Securities by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. Any person who may be deemed to be an underwriter will be identified, and any compensation received from us will be described in the prospectus supplement.

Under agreements into which we may enter in connection with the sale of Securities, underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of Securities may be entitled to indemnification by us against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.
