The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

5. TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
When was the last time you took a good look at ONEOK? If more
than a year has gone by, who we are today may come as a surprise.
Mostly known for our distribution business, distribution now
accounts for less than 30 percent of ONEOK’s income. In fact,
for the first time in our history, contributions from a single,
nonregulated segment exceed those from distribution.
ONEOK has become a large, diversified energy corporation with an
asset stronghold that lies across the prolific Mid Continent region
of the United States. During the past two years, our midstream
acquisitions have vaulted us into the top 10 nationally for natural
gas liquids production. Our marketing efforts reach more than 28
states, and the company is a key player in the retail natural gas
markets in Oklahoma and Kansas.
PROFITABLE STRATEGY
ONEOK’s transition has been purposeful, achieved through a series
of events intentionally choreographed to generate earnings growth.
6. We set a course of action, executed that plan and now are reaping
the rewards. ONEOK’s year-end numbers epitomize an incredible
2000 with momentum that continues into 2001. Diluted earnings
per share were $2.96 compared with $2.09 one year ago, up 42
percent over 1999.
In last year’s annual report, we announced ONEOK’s spring 2000
purchase of midstream assets from Dynegy Inc. and Kinder Morgan,
Inc. Those assets, valued at nearly $878 million, enhance our Mid
Continent position and expand our marketing and trading presence
to California, the upper Midwest, Rocky Mountains and Gulf Coast.
Although these acquisitions only contributed for nine months to
our year-end earnings, their impact on our numbers is impressive.
ONEOK’s overall revenues grew from $2.1 billion in 1999 to $6.6
billion. Operating income generated by our gas gathering and
processing operations was $110.8 million, up 410.6 percent when
compared with last year’s results.
T O TA L E N E R G Y PA C K A G E
A strong team effort by our entire business mix, blending nonregulated
with regulated opportunities, is necessary if ONEOK is to deliver
shareholder value; and that’s exactly what our organization is doing.
Our marketing and trading and gathering and processing activities
are complemented by the successes of ONEOK Resources, our

development rather than riskier exploration efforts, it posted a 96
percent success rate for completed wells during the year and has
proved reserves totaling 254.7 billion cubic feet of natural gas and
4.3 million barrels of oil. At the same time, our regulated distribution
businesses rank us ninth nationally in terms of customers served.
Those operations, managed by Kansas Gas Service and Oklahoma
Natural Gas, serve a total of 1.4 million customers and provide
ONEOK stable earnings and predictable cash flow.
The company’s total energy package will become even stronger this
summer when ONEOK Power, our sixth business segment, begins
generating electricity. Natural gas fired generation represents one
more way that ONEOK can extract value from natural gas. Without
a doubt, ONEOK segments accomplish more working together for
our shareholders than each could do standing alone.
TERMINATED MERGER
ONEOK continues to be engaged in litigation related to the
cancelled merger with Southwest Gas Corporation. We remain
committed to vigorously defending the claims against our company,
yet we have not let them distract us from pursuing our business
objectives. In December 2000, ONEOK was cleared of unfounded
racketeering charges associated with the litigation. We believe
9. ONEOK ultimately will be vindicated of all allegations and emerge
as a stronger company because of the experience.
EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS
We are ever mindful that it is you, our shareholders, for whom we
work. To enable all ONEOK employees to better understand your
perspective, each became a shareholder during January 2001 as the
result of a new incentive program. Last fall, we set a benchmark of
$45 per share for our company and promised all 3,700 employees
one share of stock when that goal was met, plus an additional share
each time the price reaches another $5 level beyond the $45 mark.
The first celebration came December 19 when ONEOK stock closed
at $45.312. The second reward was earned just nine days later when
the stock closed at $50.5625.
STOCK SPLIT PROPOSED
On January 18, 2001, ONEOK directors recommended that
shareholders increase the number of authorized common stock
shares from 100 million to 300 million, effecting a two-for-one split.
The proposed record date for the split is May 23, 2001, with share
distribution taking place on June 11, 2001. If approved, the action
will increase the number of common stock shares outstanding from
29.6 million shares to 59.2 million. The quarterly dividend also
10. would be divided in half to reflect the split. The dividend is
currently paid at a rate of 31 cents per common share.
ONEOK 2001
Intrinsic opportunities are driving ONEOK’s growth during 2001.
Where possible, operations are being consolidated, allowing the
company to make the best use of its assets. We continue to innovate,
producing better options for our customers. We are enhancing
operations, including those in the natural gas liquids markets. As
always, we will review acquisition possibilities that could stimulate
future earnings growth.
While ONEOK’s 2000 earnings are impressive, there are several
reasons why our management team expects 2001 to be 20 percent
higher. Among those are:
* A full year of contributions from our new midstream assets,
* Completion of our 300-megawatt power plant in June 2001,
* Weather-normalized rates in Kansas effective December 1, 2000,
* Improved prices for production sales.
ONEOK TOMORROW
ONEOK is designed with a dynamic structure, and that means it
will always be evolving, changing to create new opportunities for
11. shareholders, employees and customers. What will remain constant
are the values upon which we were founded: integrity in business,
respect for the individual and commitment to excellence.
The success ONEOK has attained is the result of careful planning
and hard work on the part of many people. We are controlling our
own destiny and expect exciting results to continue. ONEOK is
not your average energy company. We hope you take time to get
reacquainted with us.

17. ONEOK is markedly different than it was two years ago. What’s been the driver? Growth in
nonregulated earnings.
The evolution that began methodically in 1995 came into its own during 2000, positioning us
for anticipated growth in 2001 and beyond. ONEOK purchased prime Mid Continent region assets,
valued at nearly $878 million, from Dynegy Inc. and Kinder Morgan, Inc. that stretch from Texas
to Kansas and cross the natural gas-rich Hugoton, Anadarko and Panhandle Basins. These
gathering, processing and marketing jewels are already proving their worth.
ONEOK’s marketing and trading business was especially boosted by the acquisition. Gas marketing
volume, which averaged 1.1 billion cubic feet per day in 1999 increased to 2.7 billion cubic feet per
day. Storage capacity was up from 29.5 billion cubic feet to 64 billion cubic feet. Helping drive our
momentum is the fact that ONEOK now has access to five major U.S. marketing hubs. Those hubs,
p. 07
plus storage capabilities and contracted pipeline capacity, enable ONEOK’s marketing and trading
segment to serve customers from coast to coast and border to border.
Gathering and processing, for years a secondary segment of ONEOK’s business mix, finally made
its way into the spotlight this year. We added 13,400 miles of gathering pipeline and natural gas
processing plants with a combined capacity of approximately 1.6 billion cubic feet per day.
The result? The company’s total daily processing capacity jumped to 2.2 billion cubic feet by
year-end. Our natural gas liquids production increased by 230 percent to 69 thousand barrels
per day, clearly placing us in the top 10 nationally.
In just a few months, ONEOK will make its debut as an electricity provider, with the completion of
the $120 million Spring Creek Power Plant. Located just outside of Oklahoma City, the 300-megawatt,
natural-gas-fired generating facility will operate as a peaking plant — supplying customers with the
additional power they need during summertime high electricity demand. To ensure reliable natural
gas supply, the plant is located near the company’s Edmond natural gas storage field.
Five years ago, at the beginning of ONEOK’s transition, our net income was almost $43 million.
Today the company’s net income exceeds $145 million, and that number continues to grow.
Without a doubt, ONEOK is one company worth watching.
18. ONEOK’s operating groups are dedicated to performance and profitability as a whole. Business units
in many diversified corporations operate as stand-alone entities that rarely, if ever, interact with the
others. ONEOK shareholders, however, benefit more when our company segments come together to
form a cohesive team. The result is much more valuable than the sum of individual successes.
Few natural gas marketing and trading companies, for example, are able to quickly respond to daily
market changes. Our storage capacity, however, allows ONEOK Energy Marketing and Trading to buy
or sell large packages of gas over short time horizons — even on an hour-to-hour basis. Referred to
as serving the “optionality market,” this business requires a strong balance sheet.
ONEOK’s primary operational location, the Mid Continent region of the U.S., is another critical part of
our united strategy. The region is a treasure trove of prime acreage, industry technology and a skilled
workforce. ONEOK Resources, our production company, increased its development drilling in the
Mid Continent as natural gas prices recovered during 2000 and rose to unprecedented highs. It
p. 08
participated in drilling more than 90 wells during the year — the most activity in its history. ONEOK
Resources is among the lowest-cost producers in the country and was ranked among the top U.S. small
independent producers in a survey of 2000 industry trends conducted by a national consulting firm.
In order to maintain a strategy of investing in assets that strengthen and complement each other,
we occasionally divest the company of holdings that no longer are solid strategic fits. That happened
twice during 2000. During the first quarter, ONEOK sold its 42.4 percent interest in the Indian Basin
Gas Processing Plant and gathering system for $55 million. Although the plant was very successful,
its New Mexico location prevented it from supporting our other operations. In June, ONEOK Resources
sold $6 million of non-core, non-strategic gas and oil producing properties. The sale involved 143
wells that were scattered in isolated fields throughout Texas and parts of Oklahoma and Kansas.
What provides ONEOK balance for its higher-risk, upstream and midstream activities? Our regulated
distribution operations, Oklahoma Natural Gas Company and Kansas Gas Service Company. These
businesses have an almost $2.0 billion asset base. ONG serves 80 percent of Oklahoma, while KGS
customers represent about two-thirds of the Kansas retail gas market. During 2000, ONG and KGS
provided ONEOK a stable 11.6 percent return on investment and were responsible for 29.3 percent
of corporate operating income.

ALL FOR ONE. p. 09
ONE FOR ALL.
26. Admittedly, the full meaning of our fast-paced 2000 is a lot to absorb in one sitting. But don’t think
for one minute that any part of ONEOK is like those flash-in-the-pan dot coms. What happened here
is the result of measured, strategic efforts to improve earnings.
To ensure ONEOK’s overall risk exposure is kept in line, we established a Corporate Risk Control
p. 16
Group. The effort formalized our procedures that identify, manage, measure and monitor overall risk
exposures. It set parameters for our marketing and trading business and created a buffer between
those making trades and those who account for them. We also implemented mark-to-market
accounting, a method specific to trading contracts and trading companies.
During 2000, we selected and began installing new Enterprise Resource Planning software that
links all ONEOK accounting and human resources systems. The change will provide unprecedented
efficiency and accuracy. Each of those attributes is a critical factor in today’s marketplace.
As the natural gas industry continues to unbundle downstream operations, more and more end-use
customers are leaning toward companies with strong balance sheets and good credit ratings. That’s
one reason why significantly all of ONEOK’s long-term debt is fixed-rate: It does not jeopardize
earnings or cash flow resulting from changes in market interest rates. Additionally, the company
has a $900 million credit line.
During May, we filed a $460 million registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission that allows us to issue debt or common stock securities. It provides us with access
to additional funds for working capital, refinancing debt and making acquisitions. Meanwhile to
expand and keep our assets in shape, we invested $311 million for capital expenditures during 2000.
Another $300.8 million has been budgeted for the same purposes in 2001.
27. The energy business is one segment of the economy that can be impacted by, among other things,
weather, government pricing, regulation, supply and demand issues, and competition. To minimize some
of these risks, ONEOK uses derivative instruments like future contracts and hedges. This past year,
hedges protected many of our positions as gas prices soared to all-time highs. In the case of our
p. 17
production company, protective hedges actually limited its earning potential. Are we sorry we hedged?
No. It was smart business. ONEOK Resources still had a great year and will benefit from higher prices
and hedges during 2001.
Our growth strategy is successful for two reasons: We seek opportunities that will maximize existing
assets and operations, and we recognize that expansion must have a positive impact on earnings
performance. ONEOK is in a very attractive position with an excellent mix of hard and soft assets.
We know who we are and where we are headed. We believe ONEOK’s bottom line will continue to

Stanton L. Young retired from ONEOK’s Board of Directors on April 20, 2000. Young,
president of The Young Companies in Oklahoma City, tirelessly contributed his expertise
to our Board for more than 28 years. We especially appreciate his service to ONEOK
during our period of major transformation.
Howard R. Fricke, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of The Security
Benefit Group of Companies, resigned from the ONEOK Board of Directors on
February 14, 2001. Fricke served as a director for four years. He will be missed,
and we wish him the best.
John B. Dicus joined ONEOK’s board of directors effective February 15, 2001. Dicus,
39, is president and chief operating officer and director of Capitol Federal Savings Bank
in Topeka, Kansas. He brings financial expertise and experience to our board, along
with knowledge of Kansas where ONEOK distributes natural gas to more than two-thirds
of the state.

Dekatherm (Dt or Dth): A measure of heating value roughly equivalent to one
thousand cubic feet of natural gas.
Exploitation: The optimal development of an oil and gas reservoir to extract
its hydrocarbons.
p. 26
Hedging: The process of reducing financial risk to adverse natural gas, oil or
other commodity price movements by entering into offsetting transactions.
Fuel and Shrink Contract: Also referred to as “keep whole.” Contract in which
the processor replaces NGLs extracted with natural gas to maintain the BTU
content at the tailgate of the plant. It allows the owner of the gas to be “kept
whole” in terms of BTUs and allows the processor to sell the recovered NGLs.
Mark-to-Market: The daily adjustment of a transaction to reflect its fair value.
Often required to calculate variations of margins and to indicate market prices
for positions.
Natural Gas Liquids (NGL): Liquid hydrocarbons that are extracted and
separated from the natural gas stream. NGL products include ethane, propane,
iso butane, butane and natural gasoline.
Percent-of-Proceeds Contract: Contract in which the processor is
paid a percentage of the market value of the natural gas and NGLs that
are processed.
Units of Measure:
Mcf Thousand cubic feet
MMcf Million cubic feet
Bcf Billion cubic feet
Bbl Barrels (42 U.S. gallons)
MBbl Thousand barrels
MGal Thousand gallons
When -e follows any of the above, the oil and natural gas liquids
components have been converted to their equivalents in cubic feet
at a rate of 6 Mcf per barrel.
