On October 26, 2023, at the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Natural Gas Services Group, Inc.

With respect to the long-term equity portion of her compensation, Ms. Hodges was awarded 4,623 restricted stock units, also representing a prorated number of units from the date of her appointment based upon an annual award value of $100,000 for a service period ending on June 15, 2024. Each unit represents the right to receive one share of Company common stock upon vesting one year from the date of grant. The closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock was $13.81 on October 26, 2023.
Ms. Hodges has more than 30 years of wholesale and retail energy experience, including national public accounting firm experience and extensive experience across the energy industry value chain.
