2008-09 Annual Report ANNUAL REPORT 2008-2009 ENRICHING OUR COMMUNITIES THROUGH ADVANCEMENT OF THE ARTS CONTENTS 1 an exciting year of transition 2 2008-09 year in review 3 2009 campaign 5 member agencies 6 making it on broadway 7 events 9 volunteer leadership 11 donor listing 17 contact information AN EXCITING YEAR OF TRANSITION Thank you for supporting Allied Arts this year. Despite a weakening economy, our community came together and raised more than $2.58 million for the arts. Because of the economic breakdown, venerable opera houses, theatres and museums across the country shut their doors. Here, in Oklahoma, we continue to support the arts at high levels – understanding that in a good or bad economy, the arts deserve appreciation for the invaluable services they provide. In fact, your steady support will enable Allied Arts to allocate more than $2.1 million, the same amount we did last year, to supplement our agencies’ operating, educational and programming budgets. In addition to a successful campaign, 2009 brought exciting changes to the organization. Jeanette Elliott and her talented team at Ackerman McQueen equipped Allied Arts with a bold, fresh logo to better reflect the creativity and innovation of the arts agencies we serve and represent. With support from the Kirkpatrick Foundation, Allied Arts also launched a new website with dynamic content and a greater focus on our member agencies. Deborah McAuliffe Senner and After a comprehensive search, Allied Arts moved to a central location in Donna Rinehart-Keever Automobile Alley where we can better serve the arts and cultural community. Finally, after a decade of service, Donna Rinehart-Keever retired as president of Allied Arts. The accomplishments under her tenure changed the landscape of Allied Arts and Central Oklahoma’s cultural community. She spearheaded the effort to increase the number of member agencies under the Allied Arts umbrella from seven to 20 and steadily guided campaign growth from $1.1 million to $2.8 million in contributions. Donna’s retirement ushers in a new era of leadership. After a nationwide search, Allied Arts veteran Deborah McAuliffe Senner will lead the organization into unchartered frontiers of awareness, fundraising and advocacy. There is not a more passionate champion of the arts than Deborah – Allied Arts and the arts community are in capable and caring hands. Thank you for your support. Donna Rinehart-Keever Deborah McAuliffe Senner Thank you for your generous support of Allied Arts. Together, we are fulfilling Allied Arts’ mission of “Enriching Our Communities 1 Through Advancement of the Arts.” 2008-2009 YEAR IN REVIEW CAMPAIGNING Campaign FOR THE ARTS 2009 Investment REBRANDING ALLIED ARTS Raised $2.58 million from REVENUE Revenue corporate, foundation and Events Launched new image campaign and Web site over 3,000 individual donations SOURCES Misc. 2% 3% 14% 81% EDUCATING ENDOWING THE ARTS Raised $25,000, leveraged into $50,000 for MOVING UP THROUGH OCCF affiliated fund via John Kirkpatrick Raised $53,000 to support ART Centennial Endowment Challenge move to Broadway Avenue Raised historic $95,000 for CAMPAIGN HISTORY educational 3,500,000 outreach program with four new 3,000,000 supporters, including $50,000 2,500,000 investment from Kimray 2,000,000 PLANNING FOR 1,500,000 THE FUTURE Embarked on a 1,000,000 new three-year 2003AN 2004AN 2005AN 2006AN 2007AN 2008AN 2009AN strategic plan Donna Rinehart-Keever retired USHERING IN A NEW ERA Deborah McAuliffe Senner named successor 20 new companies participated EMPOWERING in the workplace giving program- EMPLOYEES enabling employees to support the arts community 2 ART MATTERS: 2009 ANNUAL CAMPAIGN The 2009 annual campaign was one of the most successful fundraising drives in Allied Arts history – raising more than $2.58 million for the arts.

Throughout their efforts, Allied Arts member agencies strive to ensure that all members of our community – from homeless children to homebound elderly – have access to the arts because art is for all. In 2008-2009, Allied Arts member agencies reached approximately 1.9 million people, including 212,601 school children, from Oklahoma City, the state and beyond. Highlights from their respective seasons include: the launch of “Science Live” at Science Museum Oklahoma; the resurgence of Oklahoma City Ballet; and the Oklahoma City Museum of Art serving as one of three U.S. venues to host a major exhibition from the Musée du Louvre. Furthermore, several agencies celebrated significant milestones, including: Canterbury Choral Society marking its 40th anniversary season, Carpenter Square Theatre commemorating its 25th anniversary season, Oklahoma City Philharmonic observing its 20th anniversary season, Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park marking its 25th summer season, and Oklahoma Visual Arts Coalition marking its 20th anniversary. 5 ALLIED ARTS MAKES IT ON BROADWAY After an extensive search, Allied Arts moved in November 2008 to 1015 N. Broadway Avenue – the heart of historic Automobile Alley. The new location offers a safe, easily accessible and inviting space for volunteers, board members, donors and agencies to work and meet on behalf of the arts. Interior designers Sherry Beasley and Vicki Van Stavern donated countless hours to ensure the space sparked the creativity of staff and all who enter the office doors. In addition, visitors enjoy rotating exhibits of local artwork curated by Allied Arts member agencies. The following facility sponsors helped make our move possible: Associated Glass The Freede Family Mark & Beverly Funke Hornbeek Blatt Architects Kirkpatrick Family Fund Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores Mary Nichols Carl & Beth Shortt 6 ALLIED ARTS: SPECIAL EVENTS OPUS V: Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend Upon entering the Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club on November 7, 2008, more than 300 guests were transported to an era of old Hollywood glamour and glitz at OPUS V: Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend. Led by co-chairs Ann and Bill Johnstone and Charlotte and John Richels, this year’s fundraising gala was the most successful in Allied Arts history – raising $260,950 through the generosity of event sponsors, ticket sales and competitive bidding for spectacular auction items. Campaign Kick-Off & Campaign Celebration At the public launch of the 2009 campaign on January 22, Allied Arts supporters gathered at the Oklahoma History Center to kick-off community-wide campaign efforts. Those in attendance learned that Allied Arts had raised $1,260,401 to date during the silent fundraising phase. They also had the opportunity to preview the 2009 campaign video which was shown throughout the metro at 140 workplace giving meetings. The event also served as the backdrop for the unveiling of the new Allied Arts logo and rebranding package created by Jeanette Elliott and her team at Ackerman McQueen. Five months later on May 7, supporters gathered at the home of Charlotte and Jerry Hess to celebrate the great efforts of campaign leadership, campaign volunteers and member agencies.

Whether you donated to the annual campaign, sponsored an event or donated in-kind services, you made a difference in Allied Arts’ capacity to provide critical funds and resources to 44 art nonprofit organizations. In turn, these organizations reached more than one million people through a wide range of cultural programs – from blockbuster visual art exhibits to intimate poetry readings, and from free festivals and low-cost events to Oklahoma premieres of acclaimed theatrical productions. With Allied Arts funding, more than 700,000 arts experiences were delivered to Oklahoma schoolchildren throughout the state. You helped bus rural and low-income urban students to the capital city to tour an exhibit, watch a play and engage in hands-on artmaking. You also helped transport the arts to school auditoriums and afterschool sites, as well as place teaching artists and integrate arts education into the schools that need it most. Furthermore, Allied Arts agencies remained at the forefront of using the arts as a healing agent. From guitar and ceramics lessons for veterans to dance classes for those suffering from Parkinson’s disease, you played a part in helping the sick, disabled and hospitalized heal faster and use the arts to cope with their condition.

    SandRidge Energy, Inc. Sends Letter To Stockholders Recommends Stockholders Support Current Highly Qualified Board and Reject the TPG-Axon Group's Nominees and Proposals OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SandRidge Energy, Inc. (the "Company" or "SandRidge") (NYSE: SD) today sent a letter urging stockholders to support the Company's highly qualified Board and reject the TPG-Axon Group's nominees by signing, dating and returning SandRidge's WHITE consent revocation card. Included below is the full text of the letter to SandRidge stockholders: February 20, 2013 Dear Fellow Stockholder: PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT IN SANDRIDGE ENERGY PLEASE SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE WHITE CONSENT REVOCATION CARD TODAY Your support of SandRidge Energy and its Board is critical to the continued execution of our strategy to capitalize on SandRidge's leading position in the Mississippian Lime and deliver long-term value for our stockholders. New York-based hedge fund TPG-Axon has engaged in a false and misleading campaign in an attempt to replace your experienced Board. If successful, TPG-Axon's proposals would turn control of your Company over to a new Board of Directors nominated exclusively by TPG-Axon without providing you with any control premium for your shares. TPG-Axon has yet to put forth a thoughtful plan to create value for stockholders. Giving their nominees control would place your investment at risk by disrupting the execution of our strategic plan. Don't let TPG-Axon remove SandRidge's independent and highly qualified directors who are focused on serving all of the Company's stockholders. We urge you to take no action with respect to TPG-Axon's consent solicitation other than to sign, date and return the enclosed WHITE consent revocation card.
