There are no disagreements between Mr. Evans and the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Evans was a member of the Board’s Audit Committee and Compensation Committee.
On February 26, 2024, the Board appointed Mr. Robert Keith Teague to serve on the Board to fill the vacancy resulting from the resignation of Mr. Evans.

There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Teague and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Teague was selected to serve as a director of the Company.

As a non-employee director, Mr. Teague will receive compensation in accordance with the Company’s policies for compensating non-employee directors, including awards under the Amended and Restated Targa Resources Corp. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), as described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 30, 2023. In connection with his appointment to the Board, the Compensation Committee expects to grant Mr. Teague an award under the Plan of 1,947 shares of restricted stock (the “Expected Restricted Stock Award”).
