<P>We adopted our Annual Officer Incentive Plan (the AOIP) in January 2000 and previously filed a copy of it with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The AOIP provides that certain of our officers may receive cash incentive awards based on their individual performance, and the performance and profitability of ONEOK, Inc. (the Company) and the performance of particular business units of the Company.  The corporate and business unit criteria and individual performance criteria are established annually by the Executive Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the Committee).  The Committee also establishes annual target awards for each officer.</P>





<P>On January 19, 2006, the Committee established the corporate performance criteria for incentive awards under the AOIP for 2006.  The corporate performance criteria for 2006 is based on our earnings per share (EPS), exclusive of the cumulative effect of accounting changes and certain gains or losses on sales of assets.  Our actual EPS for 2006 will be compared with the threshold and target levels set by the Committee.  No incentive amount will be paid based on this performance measure if actual EPS for 2006 is below the threshold level set by the Committee.  </P>


<P>  </P>


<P>If the maximum target EPS is achieved or exceeded, then the participant's incentive award may be 200 percent of the officer's target award.  After taking into account the achievement based on this corporate performance criteria, the Committee has the authority to adjust the amount of the award, based on business unit criteria and individual performance criteria.  </P>

Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
We adopted our Annual Officer Incentive Plan (the AOIP) in January 2000 and previously filed a copy of it with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The AOIP provides that certain of our officers may receive cash incentive awards based on their individual performance, and the performance and profitability of ONEOK, Inc. (the Company) and the performance of particular business units of the Company.  The corporate and business unit criteria and individual performance criteria are established annually by the Executive Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the Committee).  The Committee also establishes annual target awards for each officer.
On January 19, 2006, the Committee established the corporate performance criteria for incentive awards under the AOIP for 2006.  The corporate performance criteria for 2006 is based on our earnings per share (EPS), exclusive of the cumulative effect of accounting changes and certain gains or losses on sales of assets.  Our actual EPS for 2006 will be compared with the threshold and target levels set by the Committee.  No incentive amount will be paid based on this performance measure if actual EPS for 2006 is below the threshold level set by the Committee.
If the maximum target EPS is achieved or exceeded, then the participant's incentive award may be 200 percent of the officer's target award.  After taking into account the achievement based on this corporate performance criteria, the Committee has the authority to adjust the amount of the award, based on business unit criteria and individual performance criteria.
