NOTICE OF CHANGE OF LOCATION OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2020

To the Shareholders of ONEOK, Inc.:

Due to public health concerns relating to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), and to protect the health and well-being of our shareholders, employees, directors and the public, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of ONEOK, Inc. (the “Company”) will be held as a virtual meeting only. You will not be able to attend the 2020 Annual Meeting in person. As previously announced, the 2020 Annual Meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 20, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time.

You will be entitled to participate in and vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting if you were a shareholder of record as of the close of business on March 23, 2020, the record date, or hold a legal proxy for the 2020 Annual Meeting provided by your bank, broker, or nominee. Guests may join the 2020 Annual Meeting online in listen-only mode, but they will not have the option to vote shares or ask questions during the virtual meeting.

To attend the 2020 Annual Meeting, simply go to the virtual meeting website at https://web.lumiagm.com/205564060. You can also access the link directly from our website at https://ir.oneok.com/ under the Events and Presentation page. You will then need to enter the control number found on your proxy card, voting instruction form or notice you previously received, along with the Meeting Code ONEOK2020 (case sensitive), in order to be admitted to the meeting. Those holding their shares through an intermediary, such as a bank, broker, or nominee, who want to participate should request a control number from their intermediary in advance of the meeting.

You may vote during the 2020 Annual Meeting by following the instructions that will be available on the virtual meeting website during the 2020 Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares through an intermediary, you must obtain a legal proxy from your bank, broker, or nominee in order to vote during the meeting. A list of shareholders entitled to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting will be available on the meeting website during the meeting for examination by any shareholder for any purpose germane to the meeting.

Whether or not you plan to attend the 2020 Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy materials. If you have already voted, your vote is still effective, and it will be cast in accordance with your instructions by one of the duly appointed proxies at the 2020 Annual Meeting. The proxy card, voting instruction form or notice included with the previously distributed proxy materials may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the 2020 Annual Meeting.

It is our desire to conduct a virtual meeting that approximates an in-person experience for our shareholders. Shareholders who have entered their control number may ask questions at the 2020 Annual Meeting in accordance with the rules of conduct that will be made available at the virtual meeting site and an audio archive of the 2020 Annual Meeting, including the question and answer session, will be posted on the Company’s website at www.oneok.com under the Investor page within a few days after adjournment.

Help and technical support for accessing the virtual meeting is available before the 2020 Annual Meeting by calling 1-866-235-0232. Online check-in will begin 30 minutes before the 2020 Annual Meeting, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.
