Grow With Us
With the Employee Stock Award Program (ESAP), you receive ONEOK common stock every time the stock reaches a new high. That stock is yours to keep for your investment and savings goals.
Important: Upcoming Shareholder Vote
The ESAP is preauthorized to distribute a set number of shares. The current allocation of shares was fully awarded with ONEOK achieving the $103 milestone. The ESAP is now paused until the 2025 annual shareholder meeting can take place to request additional shares. The meeting typically takes place in May; however, an official meeting date will be set in the future. We expect the program to resume upon shareholder approval of additional shares.
How It Works
Open An EQ Account
If you’re a full-time benefits-eligible employee and you receive a share of stock, you may open your ESAP account online through Equiniti Shareowner Services (EQ) or call 866-235-0232. Equiniti Shareowner Services (EQ) manages the ESAP program for ONEOK.
Receive Your Stock
Every time ONEOK common stock hits a benchmark high, you receive one share in your EQ account on the benchmark date. Other than the tax withholding made from your paycheck based on the imputed value of the stock, your ESAP stock is no cost to you.
Save Or Sell Your Stock
You can sell your shares at any time through EQ or have them issued to you in certificate form to sell through a licensed broker. You can also transfer them to another broker at any time. If the ESAP is part of your retirement savings strategy, save your shares as a long-term investment.
