INFORMATION CIRCULAR - PROXY STATEMENT

for the Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders

to be held May 7, 2025

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES AND PLACE OF MEETING

This Information Circular - Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of PHX Energy Services Corp. (the "Corporation" or "PHX Energy"), for use at the Annual General and Special Meeting (the "Meeting") of the holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares ("Common Shares") of the Corporation to be held on the 7th day of May, 2025 at 10:30 a.m. (Calgary time) at the – Penn West Plaza Conference Center 207, 9th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta and at any adjournment thereof, for the purposes set forth in the Notice of Annual General and Special Meeting. Instruments of Proxy must be received by the Secretary of the Corporation, c/o Odyssey Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 702, 67 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M5E 1J8, not later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time for the holding of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. The board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board") has fixed the record date for the Meeting at the close of business on March 21, 2025 (the "Record Date"). Shareholders of the Corporation of record as at the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of the Meeting and to vote those shares included in the list of Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting prepared as at the Record Date, unless any such Shareholder transfers shares after the Record Date and the transferee of those shares, having produced properly endorsed certificates evidencing such shares or having otherwise established that he or she owns such shares, demands, not later than 10 days before the Meeting, that the transferee's name be included in the list of Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting, in which case such transferee shall be entitled to vote such shares at the Meeting.

If you are a registered Shareholder and are unable to attend the Meeting in person, please exercise your right to vote by dating, signing and returning the accompanying form of proxy to Odyssey Trust Company, the Corporation's transfer agent. To be valid, completed proxy forms must be dated, completed, signed and deposited with PHX Energy's transfer agent, Odyssey Trust Company, (i) by mail or by hand delivery using the enclosed return envelope or one addressed to Odyssey Trust Company, Proxy Department, 702, 67 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M5E 1J8, or (ii), by facsimile to 1-800-517-4553. If you vote through the Internet, you may also appoint another person to be your proxyholder. Please go to https://vote.odysseytrust.com and follow the instructions. You will require your 12-digit control number found on your proxy form. Your proxy or voting instructions must be received in each case no later than forty-eight (48) hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of Alberta) or, if the Meeting is adjourned, 48 hours (excluding Saturdays and holidays) before the beginning of any adjournment of the Meeting.

Unless otherwise stated, the information contained in this Information Circular – Proxy Statement ("Information Circular") is given as at March 21, 2025.

The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed by the Shareholder or his or her attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized.

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are directors and/or officers of the Corporation. Each Shareholder has the right to appoint a proxyholder other than the persons designated by the Corporation, who need not be a Shareholder, to attend and to act for him or her and on his or her behalf at the Meeting. To exercise such right, the names of the nominees of management should be crossed out and the name of the Shareholder's appointee should be legibly printed in the blank space provided.

BENEFICIAL HOLDERS OF SHARES

The information set forth in this section is provided to beneficial holders of common shares ("Common Shares") of the Corporation who do not hold their Common Shares in their own name ("Beneficial Shareholders"). Beneficial Shareholders should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those shares will not be registered in the Beneficial Shareholder's name on the records of the Corporation. Such shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Beneficial Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depositary for Securities Limited, which acts as nominees for many Canadian brokerage firms). Shares held by brokers or their nominees can only be voted (for or against resolutions) upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, the broker/nominees are prohibited from voting shares for their clients. The Corporation does not know for whose benefit the shares registered in the name of CDS & Co. are held.

Applicable regulatory policy requires intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders' meetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their shares are voted at the Meeting. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge"). Broadridge typically provides a scannable voting request form or applies a special sticker to the proxy forms, mails those forms to the Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the voting request forms or proxy forms to Broadridge. Often Beneficial Shareholders are alternatively provided with a toll-free telephone number to vote their shares or website address where shares can be voted. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder receiving a voting instruction request or a proxy with a Broadridge sticker on it cannot use that instruction request or proxy to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting as the proxy must be returned as directed by Broadridge well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the shares voted. Accordingly, it is strongly suggested that Beneficial Shareholders return their completed instructions or proxies as directed by Broadridge well in advance of the Meeting.

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his or her broker (or agent of the broker), a Beneficial Shareholder may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder should enter their own names in the blank space on the form of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker's agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker (or agent), well in advance of the Meeting.

The Corporation will be delivering proxy-related materials to non-objecting beneficial owners of its Common Shares directly with the assistance of Odyssey Trust Company.

The Corporation intends to pay for intermediaries to deliver proxy-related materials to objecting beneficial owners of its Common Shares.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY

A Shareholder who has submitted a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to the exercise thereof. If a person who has given a proxy attends personally at the Meeting at which such proxy is to be voted, such person may revoke the proxy and vote in person. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or his or her attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized and deposited either at the registered office of the Corporation at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, at which the proxy is to be used, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, and upon either of such deposits, the proxy is revoked.

PERSONS MAKING THE SOLICITATION

The solicitation is made on behalf of the management of the Corporation. The costs incurred in the preparation and mailing of the Instrument of Proxy, Notice of Annual General and Special Meeting and this Information Circular - Proxy Statement will be borne by the Corporation. In addition to solicitation by mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interviews, telephone or other means of communication and by directors, officers and employees of the Corporation, who will not be specifically remunerated therefor.

EXERCISE OF DISCRETION BY PROXY

The Common Shares represented by proxy in favour of management nominees shall be voted on any ballot at the Meeting and, where the Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Common Shares shall be voted on any ballot in accordance with the specification so made.

In the absence of such specification, the Common Shares will be voted in favour of the matters to be acted upon. The persons appointed under the Instrument of Proxy furnished by the Corporation are conferred with discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations of those matters specified in the Instrument of Proxy and Notice of Annual General Meeting. At the time of printing this Information Circular - Proxy Statement, management of the Corporation knows of no such amendment, variation or other matter.

MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON AT MEETING

Election of Directors

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to fix the number of directors of the Corporation to be elected at the Meeting at seven (7) members and to elect seven (7) directors to hold office until the next annual meeting or until their successors are elected or appointed. There are currently seven (7) directors of the Corporation, each of whom retire from office at the Meeting, subject to re-election.

Unless otherwise directed, it is the intention of management to vote proxies in the accompanying form in favour of an ordinary resolution fixing the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting at seven (7) members and in favour of the election as directors of the seven (7) nominees hereinafter set forth. The accompanying form of proxy provides for individual voting on directors.

Majority Voting Policy for Directors

The Board has adopted a Majority Voting Policy stipulating that in the event that any nominee for election to the Board receives a greater number of "withheld" votes than "for" votes at any meeting in which Shareholders vote on an uncontested election of directors, the nominee will submit his or her resignation promptly following the meeting for consideration. The Board's Nomination, Corporate Governance, HSE and Sustainability Committee (the "NCG Committee") will promptly thereafter make a recommendation to the Board whether to accept or reject the resignation. The Board's decision, including the reasons for such decision, will be disclosed by press release as soon as practicable and, in any event, within 90 days following the applicable meeting of Shareholders. In determining whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, the Board will assess the factors considered by the NCG Committee and any additional information and factors the Board believes to be relevant. Any director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to the Majority Voting Policy will not participate in the NCG Committee's recommendation or the Board's consideration whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation or any meetings in respect thereof. If the Board determines to accept the resignation, the Board may determine in its discretion, upon recommendation of the NCG Committee, whether to fill the resulting vacancy or to continue with the reduced size of the Board until the next annual meeting of Shareholders.

Board Oversight and Stewardship

The Board, either directly or through its committees, is responsible for the stewardship of the Corporation in several key areas including vision, strategic planning and objectives, leadership, risk management, corporate governance and environment, social and governance ("ESG") and sustainability practices. The Board is responsible for supervising management of the Corporation's business and affairs with the objective of enhancing shareholder value. The Board's duties are set out in the Board Mandate which is reviewed annually and is attached at Appendix B.

The Board, in part, performs its mandated responsibilities through the activities of its three committees, the Audit Committee, Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the "HRC Committee") and the NCG Committee. Each of the three Committees has their own mandate which is reviewed and approved annually. All of the Board's committees are comprised entirely of independent directors. The Board has determined that none of the directors who serve on any Board committees have a material relationship with the Corporation that could reasonably interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment.

The Board, with the assistance of the NCG Committee, retains overall responsibility for the implementation and enforcement of an appropriate system of corporate governance, including policies and procedures to ensure the Board functions independently of management. The Board establishes and maintains such corporate governance policies and procedures as are necessary to ensure that PHX Energy is fully compliant with applicable securities laws and prevailing governance standards. The Board is also responsible for the consideration and mitigation of principal risks of the business identified by management and to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to ensure the implementation of appropriate systems and procedures to manage such risk.

The Board oversees the development and execution by management of both a longer range strategic plan and a shorter range business plan for the Corporation which are designed to achieve the principal objectives and identify the principal strategic and operational opportunities and risks of PHX Energy's business. To assist the Board in meeting this responsibility, the agenda for every regularly scheduled Board meeting includes a discussion of the progress of the short-term strategic plan and quarterly results as well as an update where management provides a review of the advancement of the plan, business and technology development, financial forecasts, risk management, information technology, digitization and cyber security, quality, human resources, health safety and environment ("QHSE"), supply chain, ESG matters and possible opportunities so as to provide the Board the information required for them to discuss and analyse the main risks associated with PHX Energy's strategic plan and make recommendations to adjust the plan if necessary.

The strategic plan allows PHX Energy to meet its targeted growth levels over the next several years. Given the size of the Board, ongoing education and the extensive oil and gas related business experience of the members of the Board, there is a clear alignment and understanding by the Board of PHX Energy's strategic plan and conversations among the Board and senior management, both inside and outside the boardroom, occur frequently and openly. All executive officers are invited and regularly attend Board and committee meetings to provide necessary information to facilitate decision-making activities and Board oversight. This also provides additional opportunity for the independent directors to interact with all members of senior management in order to ensure clear understanding of the Corporation's strategic planning initiatives and objectives, and provides valuable insight that adds to the Board's ability to fulfill their responsibilities related to succession planning.

The attendance records for all members of the Board and its Committees are set forth in Appendix "A" of this Information Circular – "Corporate Governance Disclosure".

Board Tenure

While PHX Energy has adopted a Board tenure policy, it does not believe that fixed director term limits are in the Corporation's best interest as it is critical that directors develop and possess a solid understanding of the oil and gas services industry and PHX Energy's business.

The NCG Committee, which is responsible for recommending director nominees to the Board, considers the term of service of individual directors, the average term of the Board as a whole and turnover of directors in prior years when

proposing a slate of Board candidates. It considers and weighs the benefits of regular renewal in the context of the needs of the Board at the time and the benefits of having a Board whose members are familiar with PHX Energy's business through past service. The NCG Committee is of the opinion PHX Energy has achieved an effective balance with the current and proposed members of the Board. The average tenure of PHX Energy's current and proposed independent Directors is 12 years. The Committee periodically rotates Committee chairs and members to promote fresh perspective.

Board Diversity

PHX Energy recognizes the value that diversity can bring to its board of directors. Diversity promotes the inclusion of different perspectives and ideas, mitigates against groupthink and ensures that the Corporation has the opportunity to benefit from all available talent. The nomination and appointment of directors with diverse skills, knowledge, experience and backgrounds, such as but not limited to age, race, colour, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, geographical backgrounds and other distinctions, contributes to balanced perspective, debate and decision making which improves organizational strength, opportunity for innovation, corporate culture and continued success. PHX Energy further believes that director nominations should be made on the basis of the skills, knowledge and experience of individual candidates and the requirements of the Board at the time. PHX Energy does not differentiate by age, race, colour, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation or any other aspect. When assessing Board composition or identifying suitable candidates for appointment or re-election to the Board, the Corporation will consider the skills, knowledge and experience of individual candidates having due regard for the benefits of diversity and the needs of the Board.

To ensure the application of these principles and the development of a Board that is free of conscious or unconscious bias and discrimination, the NCG Committee has recommended, and the Board approved, a written diversity policy (the "Diversity Policy"). A copy of the Diversity Policy Can be found on the Corporation's website. The Diversity Policy provides that the NCG Committee will:

(i) consider only candidates who are highly qualified based on, among other considerations, their skills, knowledge and experience;

(ii) consider diversity characteristics, including age, race, colour, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation and geographical background, of the candidates;

(iii) consider the level of representation of women on the Board; and

(iv) in addition to its own searches, as and when determined appropriate from time to time, engage qualified independent external advisors to help identify candidates for nomination who meet the Committee's requirements.

PHX Energy believes that considering the broadest group of individuals who have the skills, knowledge and experience required to provide the leadership needed to achieve its business objectives is in the best interests of PHX Energy and all of its stakeholders. While the Board recognizes the benefits of Board diversity, it has chosen not to impose gender quotas or targets.

The NCG Committee has established a "skills matrix" outlining the skills, knowledge and experience it believes are required by its directors. In addition to considering skills, knowledge and experience, the Committee assesses the character and attendance of directors, along with relevant diversity factors, to ensure that the Board is operating effectively and independently of management. The skills matrix and Board composition are reviewed annually by the NCG Committee to assess the skills, knowledge and experience necessary for the Board, as a whole, to possess in order to effectively discharge its duties and mandate; the skills, knowledge and experience that each existing director possesses; whether the existing skills, knowledge, experience and perspective of the Board can be strengthened in any area; when applicable, the skills, knowledge, experience and perspective that new candidates possess; and whether or not candidates can devote sufficient time and resources to his or her duties. See "Election of Directors – Experience and Background of Directors".

The NCG Committee is of the opinion that it has proposed Board nominees with an effective range of relevant skills, knowledge, experience, character and diversity of perspective and thought.

Other than as described below, to the Board's knowledge, no proposed director: (i) is, or has been in the last 10 years, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of an issuer (including the Corporation) that, (a) while that person was acting in that capacity was the subject of a cease trade order or similar order or an order that denied the issuer access to any exemptions under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days (collectively, an "order"), (b) was subject to an order that was issued after the proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer, chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer, or (c) while that person was acting in the capacity or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets; (ii) has, within the last 10 years, become bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or become subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangements or compromises with creditors, or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold his or her assets; or (iii) has been subject to: (a) any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority, or (b) any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable security holder in deciding whether to vote for a proposed director.

Mr. Freeman was a director of Structurlam Mass Timber Corporation, a private timber manufacturing company, which filed for bankruptcy under the Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on April 11, 2023. The Company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets as part of the Chapter 11 proceedings in the United States. The Company also received sale approval from the Supreme Court of British Columbia on June 1, 2023. Mr. Freeman resigned as a director of the Company effective January 5, 2024.

Advance Notice By-law

The Board of the Corporation has adopted By-Law No. 2 regarding advance notice of nominations of directors of the Corporation, which was ratified by the shareholders of the Corporation at the 2016 annual meeting (the "Advance Notice By-law"). A copy of the Advance Notice By-law can be found under the Corporation's profile on SEDAR⁺ and on the Corporation's website.

The purpose of the Advance Notice By-law is to provide Shareholders, the Board and management of the Corporation with a clear framework for director nominations to help ensure orderly business at meetings of shareholders. Among other things, the Advance Notice By-law fixes a deadline by which you must submit director nominations to the Corporation prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders. It also specifies the information that a nominating shareholder must include in the notice to the Corporation in order for any director nominee to be eligible for election at any annual or special meeting of shareholders.

The directors of the Corporation are committed to: (a) facilitating an orderly and efficient annual general or special meeting process; (b) ensuring that all Shareholders receive: (i) adequate notice of director nominations; and (ii) sufficient information in advance of an annual general or special meeting with respect to all director nominees and the ownership interests (including derivatives, hedged positions and other economic incentives and voting interests) of the nominating shareholder in order to assess the qualifications of the proposed nominees for election to the Board and the nature of the nominating shareholder's interest in the Corporation; and (c) allowing Shareholders to register an informed vote having been afforded reasonable time for appropriate deliberation.

The Advance Notice By-law fixes a deadline by which Shareholders must submit director nominations to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and outlines the specific information that a nominating shareholder must include in the written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation for an effective nomination to occur. No person nominated by a shareholder will be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of the Advance Notice By-law.

In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation must be made not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is to be held on a date that is less than fifty (50) days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following such public announcement. In the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting), notice to the Corporation must be made not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting was made. The Board may, in its sole discretion, waive any provisions of the Advance Notice By-law.

As of the date of this Information Circular – Proxy Statement, the Corporate Secretary has not received any nominations by way of the advance notice mechanism.

Three Year Re-Approval of Unallocated Options Pursuant to the Corporation's Option Plan

The Corporation has a share option plan (the "Option Plan"), which is described under the heading "Statement of Executive Compensation – Incentive Plans – Share Option Plan" below. A complete copy of the Option Plan is attached at Appendix "C" hereto.

The Option Plan and unallocated share options ("Options") thereunder were last approved by the Corporation's Shareholders on May 5, 2022. There have been no amendments to the Option Plan since that date. When Options have been granted pursuant to the Option Plan, Common Shares that are reserved for issuance under an outstanding Option are referred to as allocated Options. The Corporation has additional Common Shares that may be issued under the Option Plan but as they are not subject to current Option grants, they are referred to as unallocated Options.

As at March 21, 2025, the Corporation had Options to purchase 1,131,667 Common Shares (equal to approximately 2% of the outstanding Common Shares) outstanding under the Option Plan, leaving unallocated Options to purchase

an aggregate of 3,424,340 Common Shares (equal to approximately 8% of the outstanding Common Shares) available for future grants based on the number of outstanding Common Shares.

Section 613(a) of the Toronto Stock Exchange Company Manual provides that every three (3) years after the institution of a security based compensation arrangement all unallocated rights, options or other entitlements under such arrangement which does not have a fixed maximum number of securities issuable thereunder, must be approved by a majority of the issuer's directors and by the issuer's security holders. As the Corporation's Option Plan is considered to be a security based compensation arrangement and as the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Option Plan is not a fixed number but is instead equal to 10% of the outstanding Common Shares, approval is being sought at the Meeting to approve the grant of unallocated Options under the Option Plan. If approval is obtained at the Meeting, the Corporation will not be required to seek further approval of the grant of unallocated Options under the Option Plan until May 7, 2028.

If approval is not obtained at the Meeting, Options which have not been allocated as of May 5, 2025 and Options which are outstanding as of May 5, 2025 and which are subsequently cancelled, terminated or exercised, will not be available for a new grant of Options under the Option Plan. Previously allocated Options will continue to be unaffected by the approval or disapproval of the resolution. If approval is not obtained at the Meeting, the HRC Committee and the Board will have to consider alternate forms of performance based compensation, including additional cash bonuses, Retention Awards, a share appreciation plan or other means in order to attract and retain qualified personnel.

The Board has unanimously approved, subject to regulatory and Shareholder approval, the grant of unallocated Options under the Option Plan. At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought advisable, pass an ordinary resolution as follows:

"BE IT RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution of PHX Energy Services Corp. (the "Corporation") that:

all unallocated options issuable pursuant to the Corporation's share option plan are approved and authorized until May 7, 2028;
any one officer or director of the Corporation be and is hereby authorized to execute and deliver all such agreements and documents, whether under the corporate seal or otherwise, and to take all action, as such officer or director shall deem necessary or appropriate to give effect to the foregoing resolution"

In order for the foregoing resolution to be passed, it must be approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by Shareholders who vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting on such resolution.

Unless otherwise directed, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy, if named as proxy, intend to vote for approval of the foregoing resolution.

Appointment of Auditors

Unless otherwise directed, it is management's intention to vote the proxies in favour of an ordinary resolution to re-appoint the firm of KPMG LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, Calgary, Alberta, to serve as auditors of the Corporation until the next annual meeting of the Shareholders and to authorize the directors of the Corporation to fix their remuneration as such. KPMG LLP have been the auditors of the Corporation since its formation and were the auditors of the Corporation's predecessors, Phoenix Technology Income Fund and Phoenix Technology Services Ltd.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CORPORATION

The Corporation is a growth-oriented, public oil and natural gas services company. The Corporation has been engaged in the business of providing horizontal and directional drilling technologies and services to the oil and natural gas industries since it was founded in 1995.

Voting Shares and Principal Holders Thereof

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

General

The Board is accountable to the Corporation's Shareholders for the overall stewardship of the Corporation. Both the Board and the HRC Committee have worked diligently, particularly through the industry challenges that have occurred in the past years, to oversee the Corporation's affairs and to work with, and support, management in regards to the Corporation's strategic direction, value creation, risk oversight and governance.

The Board's accountability includes a commitment to provide Shareholders with transparent information in regards to executive compensation philosophy and the associated programs that enable the Corporation to attract, motivate and retain the high quality executive talent needed to deliver Shareholder value.

The HRC Committee's philosophy and objectives with respect to compensation are directed primarily by two guiding principals. First, the program is intended to provide competitive levels of compensation, at expected levels of performance, in order to attract, motivate and retain talented employees. Second, the program is intended to create an alignment of interests between employees and Shareholders so that a significant portion of compensation is linked to maximizing Shareholder value. In support of this philosophy, the compensation program is designed to reward performance that is directly relevant to the Corporation's short-term and long-term success. The Corporation attempts to provide both short-term and long-term incentive compensation that is tied specifically to both corporate and individual performance targets established by the HRC Committee and the Board.

Compensation Principles and Objectives

The HRC Committee undertakes a detailed review of executive compensation, peer benchmark analysis and risk considerations related thereto on an annual basis. The Corporation's compensation program is based on a "pay-for-performance" philosophy which supports its commitment to delivering continuous strong performance for its Shareholders. Compensation policies are founded on the principle that compensation should be aligned with the long-term interests of Shareholders and enhancement in share value, while also recognizing that the Corporation's corporate performance is dependent upon the retention of highly trained, experienced and committed directors, executive officers and employees who have the necessary skill sets, education, experience and personal qualities required to successfully manage the Corporation's business. Compensation of all executive officers, including the CEO, is based on the underlying philosophy that such compensation should be competitive with other corporations operating in the Canadian oil and gas services industry and of similar size and complexity and should be reflective of the experience, performance and contribution of the individuals involved and the overall performance of the Corporation. The program also recognizes that the various components thereof must be sufficiently flexible to adapt to unexpected developments in the oil and gas services industry and the impact of internal and market-related occurrences from time to time.

The Corporation's compensation program for employees, including executive officers, is comprised of three components: (i) base salary and benefits, (ii) short-term incentive compensation comprised of an annual performance based cash bonus program and sales commissions for certain individuals, as applicable, and (iii) long-term incentive compensation comprised of equity-based options ("Options") and full-value retention awards ("Retention Awards") in the form of restricted awards ("Restricted Awards") and performance awards ("Performance Awards"). Together, these components are designed to achieve the following key objectives:

aligning the compensation framework so as to promote and support the Corporation's overall business strategy and long-term strategic plans and objectives;
to provide market competitive compensation that is substantially performance based by ensuring that a significant portion of annual and long-term incentive compensation is tied to corporate performance and, therefore, is at risk (not guaranteed) and variable year over year;

to provide incentives which encourage superior corporate performance and retention of highly skilled and talented employees; and
to align executive compensation, particularly by awarding a significant portion of long-term incentive compensation in the form of Options and Retention Awards, with corporate performance, total shareholder return and therefore Shareholders' interests.

The aggregate value of these principal components and related benefits is used as a basis for assessing the overall competitiveness of the Corporation's compensation package. The fixed element of compensation provides a competitive base of secure compensation required to attract and retain executive talent. The variable performance based, or "at risk" compensation, is designed to encourage both short-term and long-term performance of the Corporation. At more senior levels of the organization, a significant portion of compensation eligible to be paid is variable performance based compensation which places a greater emphasis on rewarding executives for their individual contributions, achievement of annual operating and financial goals, progress in executing upon the Corporation's business strategy and long-term value creation for Shareholders. Awarding a significant portion of short-term incentive compensation in the form of annual cash bonuses that are based upon specific performance targets, and longer term incentive compensation in the form of Options and Retention Awards, provides a direct link between corporate performance and the level of payout received.

In early 2017, upon the recommendation of the HRC Committee, the Board approved the addition of performance based awards to its executive compensation program so as to further align executive compensation with the long-term interests of Shareholders and enhancement in share value, which is consistent with the Corporation's pay-for-performance philosophy. As such, certain amendments to the Corporation's Retention Award Plan were made to introduce a differentiation between Restricted Awards and Performance Awards, through the use of a payout multiplier (the "Payout Multiplier") for the Performance Awards. The Payout Multiplier, which is linked solely to total shareholder return on the Common Shares relative to returns on securities of members of the Corporation's peer comparison group over the applicable period ("Relative TSR"), provides a direct link between shareholder return and the level of payout received, if any. If the Relative TSR is below the twenty-fifth (25th) percentile, the Payout Multiplier will be 0x and no payments will be made under the applicable Performance Awards. The Corporation's use of Performance Awards commenced with the granting of such awards in early 2017. All awards granted prior to 2017 were in the form of Restricted Awards. See "Incentive Plans – Retention Award Plan".

Compensation Review Process

Methodology and Competitive Factors

When determining executive compensation, including the assessment of the competitiveness of the Corporation's compensation practices, the HRC Committee reviews the compensation policies and programs of companies in its selected peer group. These companies compete with the Corporation for executive talent, operate in a similar business environment and are of similar size, scope and complexity.

Late in 2022, the HRC Committee engaged Lane Caputo Compensation Inc to assist the HRC Committee in reviewing our compensation programs for the 2023 fiscal year. Part of the engagement was to identify additional peer companies, while maintaining the objective of having peer companies who have a portion of their operations in the US market and have a focus on technology development. Based on this review, the HRC Committee modified the peer group in early 2023 the peer group, presented below, was applicable for 2023 and 2024. The Peer group consists of the following 17 similar sized oil and gas service companies that compete with the Corporation for executive talent, operate in a similar business environment and are of similar size, scope and complexity.

(2) Utilized for purposes of calculating the Relative TSR for Performance Awards.

These entities represent the "market" in which the Corporation competes for senior management talent and for which comparative information is available. Management and the HRC Committee regularly review the comparator group and market data to ensure compensation effectiveness. Given the nature of the oil and gas services industry, changes to the comparator group occur regularly as companies merge, are acquired and change over time. In addition, changes to the comparator group may be made from time to time as recommended by management and approved by the HRC Committee.

Performance

The Corporation's total compensation mix places a significant portion of the executives' compensation at risk. The design takes into account corporate and individual performance. Compensation practices, including the mix of base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives, are regularly assessed to ensure they are competitive, account for external market trends and support the Corporation's short and long-term growth and strategic objectives.

In establishing overall compensation levels, the HRC Committee uses current levels of compensation as a starting point. The HRC Committee then assesses overall corporate performance and performance against a number of operating measures including, but not limited to, annual adjusted EBITDA achieved on an absolute basis as well as adjusted EBITDA and excess cash flow results relative to the Corporation's annual budget approved by the Board. In addition, the HRC Committee considers the execution of the Corporation's business strategy, safety performance, balance sheet strength, growth in market share, return on invested capital and continued development of industry leading technologies.

The Chief Executive Officer may make recommendations to the HRC Committee with respect to compensation for employees, including the executive officers of the Corporation. In making such recommendations, the Chief Executive Officer reviews a number of factors including the compensation data compiled by management for its selected peer group, corporate performance as well as individual performance. The HRC Committee reviews the data and information provided by the Chief Executive Officer. Recommendations for executive compensation are then made by the HRC Committee to the full Board for approval.

In early 2024, the HRC Committee established strategic goals and performance targets for the organization as part of a short term incentive plan ("STIP") that was to be used for the 2024 year-end performance review of all Named Executive Officers ("NEOs"), as defined herein. See "Elements of PHX Energy's Executive Compensation Program – Short-term Incentives – Bonuses". Additionally, the HRC Committee and Board re-confirmed the formula for

calculating the Payout Multiplier, which is linked solely to Relative TSR, for Performance Awards granted in 2024. See "Elements of PHX Energy's Executive Compensation Program – Long-term Incentive Compensation – Option and Retention Awards".

The HRC Committee met in early 2025, following receipt of the Corporation's year end results, to review the Corporation's performance over the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In evaluating 2024 corporate achievements as well as individual executive performance, the HRC Committee considered a number of performance related results achieved by the Corporation within the context of market conditions and global economic conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Corporation executed on several material objectives despite the US industry experiencing a decline in activity, including, without limitation, achieving the highest level of annual consolidated revenue in its history for the third consecutive year, the US division achieving near record annual revenue only 3 percent lower than the record set in 2023, the Canadian division achieving its highest revenue since 2014 for the second consecutive year, continuing to deliver shareholder returns under its Return of Capital Strategy ("ROCS"), preserving balance sheet strength and financial health of the Corporation while growing its fleet capacity to meet high demand for premium technologies, including the addition of a fleet of owned RSS systems in Canada, exceeding internally established safety benchmarks, and the continued expansion, enhancement, development and successful deployment of new technologies.

The results of the HRC Committee's 2024 performance assessment resulted in the recommendations of the HRC Committee to the Board in respect of the approval of annual cash bonuses relative to 2024 performance. See "Elements of PHX Energy's Executive Compensation Program – Short-term Incentives – Bonuses".

Compensation Risks

As described herein, the Corporation's executive compensation program is administered by the HRC Committee. In carrying out its mandate the implications of the risks associated with the Corporation's compensation policies and practices were discussed both by the HRC Committee and the Board. The HRC Committee and the Board do not believe the Corporation's compensation programs encourage its executive officers to take inappropriate or excessive risks. This assessment is based on a number of considerations including, without limitation, the following: (i) the Corporation's compensation policies and practices are substantively uniform throughout the organization and there are no significant differences in compensation structure among the senior executive officers that would be reasonably expected to promote excessive risk taking; (ii) the overall compensation program is market based and aligned with the Corporation's business plan and long-term strategies. The compensation package for executive officers consists of fixed (base salary) and variable elements (cash bonus, Options and Retention Awards) which are designed to balance short-term goals and the long-term interests of the Corporation and are aimed at creating sustainable value for Shareholders. The performance elements are linked to achievement of the Corporation's business goals and are reviewed annually by the HRC Committee; (iii) in exercising its discretion under the cash bonus plan, Option grants and Retention Awards, the HRC Committee reviews individual and corporate performance taking into account the long-term interests of the Corporation; (iv) the compensation expense to executive officers is not a significant percentage of the Corporation's revenue and the bonuses plus annual salary under the cash bonus plan for the Named Executive Officers is capped at 8% of adjusted EBITDA if the annual result achieved is over $100 million; (v) Options and Retention Awards granted under the Option Plan and Retention Award Plan, respectively, generally vest over a 2.5 to 3 year period which further mitigates any short-term risk taking potential; and (vi) senior executive officer goals, objectives and performance are reviewed annually and considered in awarding compensation and such discretionary judgment is applied in awarding both performance based bonuses under the cash bonus plan and future compensation.

Elements of PHX Energy's Executive Compensation Program

Base Salaries and Benefits

The base salary component is intended to provide a fixed level of competitive pay that reflects each executive officer's primary duties and responsibilities. The HRC Committee compares the base salaries of the Corporation's executive officers, including that of the Chief Executive Officer, with that of officers within its selected peer group. In setting base compensation levels, consideration is also given to objective factors such as level of responsibility, experience and expertise as well as subjective factors such as leadership. Base salaries paid to executive officers of the

Corporation, including the Chief Executive Officer, are reviewed annually. Annual salary adjustments take into account the market value of the role and the executive officer's demonstration of capability and performance during the year. Salaries for executive officers are not determined based on specific benchmarks, performance goals or a specific formula. Historically, the Board has encouraged an executive compensation philosophy based on a pay-for-performance model where a significant component of total compensation is variable and performance based as described below.

In assessing comparability and competitiveness, the HRC Committee relies upon salary and other remuneration data, and other compensation information obtained from public disclosure documents of peer issuers. Consideration was given to the time period evaluated in industry surveys and public data and to the business climate applicable at the time with respect to industry demand for experienced personnel.

The benefits package for executive officers consists of an insurance plan, access to a company automobile or car allowance, and parking, which the HRC Committee considers comparable to benefits provided to executives of other publicly traded oil and gas service companies.

The Corporation has also established a retirement savings plan (RRSP or 401K) for all its Canadian and US employees, including executive officers (the "Savings Plan"), which provides a matching contribution for participating employees up to 5% of the individual's gross earnings up to specific maximums (subject to an over-riding discretion to temporarily cease matching contributions in response to weakened industry conditions). Participation in the Savings Plan is voluntary, and employees can enroll after three months of employment in Canada and upon hire in the US.

The Corporation has established a performance based cash bonus plan (the "Bonus Plan"), pursuant to which annual cash awards may be made to employees, including executive officers, based principally on the achievement of annual corporate, as well as individual performance objectives. Bonuses to executive officers may be paid at the discretion of the Board upon recommendation of the HRC Committee. Annual bonus amounts for Named Executive Officers are assessed based principally upon the corporate performance targets and strategic objectives pre-established by the HRC Committee and Board annually, and which primarily include such measures as annual adjusted EBITDA achieved on an absolute basis as well as adjusted EBITDA and excess cash flow results relative to the Corporation's annual budget approved by the Board, safety performance, preservation of balance sheet strength, technology advancement, and successful execution of the Corporation's business strategy. While the HRC Committee relies upon certain performance targets set by it annually in the first instance, the HRC Committee has the discretion to set bonuses within the context of extraordinary events or special circumstances including, without limitation, the impact of material acquisitions, or other strategic transactions, successful execution of corporate strategy or prevailing market conditions. In addition, the bonus amounts reflect discretionary components based upon both objective and subjective factors, including performance of the individual.

In early 2025, after the 2024 financial and operating results were available, the HRC Committee met to assess annual bonuses to employees, including eligible executive officers of the Corporation. For 2024, the following pre-determined corporate performance criteria were utilized for purposes of the initial assessment of the annual bonuses for Named Executive Officers.

A baseline bonus ("Baseline Bonus") was first determined based on the adjusted EBITDA results under the following methodology:

	Baseline Bonus as percentage of Adjusted EBITDA^{(1)}^{(2)}
	CEO	President	Senior Vice Presidents
If greater than 80% of budgeted adjusted EBITDA is achieved	2%	1.5%	1%
If less than 80% of budgeted adjusted EBITDA is achieved	Baseline Bonus is set to the NEO’s total annual salary

Four weighted performance criteria ("KPIs") were then used to determine the percentage of the Baseline Bonus that is payable to each NEO. Based on the results achieved for each KPI, a multiplier ranging from 0 - 1.3 is applied to determine the percentage of the Baseline Bonus that is payable (the "Cash Bonus"), with the maximum multiplier being $130\%$ . The KPIs pre-established for 2024 were as follows:

Percent of Budgeted Adjusted EBITDA $^{(1)(2)}$ Achieved
KPI Weighting $60\%$

	<80%	80%	90%	100%	110%	120%	130%
Multiplier applied to KPI Weighting	0	0.8	0.9	1	1.1	1.2	1.3

Percent of Budgeted Excess Cash Flow $^{(1)(2)}$ Achieved
KPI Weighting $20\%$

	<80%	80%	90%	100%	110%	120%	130%
Multiplier applied to KPI Weighting	0	0.8	0.9	1	1.1	1.2	1.3

3-Year Rolling Total Recordable Incident Rate ("TRIR") Achieved
KPI Weighting $10\%$

	>1.0	1	0.9	0.8	0.7	0.6	<0.5
Multiplier applied to KPI Weighting	0	0.8	0.9	1	1.1	1.2	1.3

Achievement of Team and Personal Objectives ("Operating Objectives") $^{(3)}$
KPI Weighting $10\%$

	0 of 3	1 of 3	2 of 3	3 of 3
Multiplier applied to KPI Weighting	0	0.8	0.9	1

Notes:

(1) Adjusted EBITDA and Excess Cash Flow are derived from the Corporation's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, subject to the HRC Committee's discretion to make any further adjustments as deemed appropriate for compensation purposes. For the purposes of calculating the 2024 bonuses, the HRC Committee determined to use $80\%$ of budgeted adjusted EBITDA and Excess Cash Flow which are calculated using the same methodology as when reported.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA and Excess Cash Flow are a non-International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") financial measure and may not be comparable to measures used by other entities. See the Corporation's financial statements and management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed on SEDAR' for definitions, calculations and reconciliations to the nearest IFRS measure.
(3) Operating Objectives include without limitation, return of invested capital achieved as compared to the three year average, increased operating activity related to the Corporation's high margin service offering namely Atlas Motors and RSS, contribution to the enhancement, development and successful deployment of premium technologies measured by commercialization and technology performance targets, and maintaining balance sheet strength.

If the Corporation achieves $100 million in adjusted EBITDA in the year, a cap is applied to the Cash Bonus payable to the NEOs whereby the total of the Cash Bonuses plus the NEOs' annualized salaries in aggregate cannot exceed 8% of adjusted EBITDA achieved. In the case where the cap applies, the individual Cash Bonuses are prorated by the percentage represented of the total of the Cash Bonuses prior to the cap being applied.

In 2024, the Corporation recorded $123.7 million in adjusted EBITDA which, under the formulaic methodology, resulted in a Baseline Bonus equal to the NEO's total annual salary. However, given the strong performance in 2024 despite the US market declining (13\%$ annually, the HRC Committee determined that the level of STIP payable following this pre-determined formula for the Baseline Bonus was not entirely reflective of the Corporation's strong performance during the year, which included achieving the highest level of revenue for the third consecutive year, the US division producing near record revenue in a declining market, the Canadian division achieving its highest revenue since 2014 for the second consecutive year, preserving balance sheet strength while growing the Corporation's fleet capacity to meet the high demand for its premium technologies, the initial addition of a fleet of owned RSS systems in Canada and delivering the highest level of shareholder returns, and capital expenditures to fuel growth, in its history. Based upon these factors, among others, the Board upon the recommendation of the HRC Committee, approved a

discretionary Baseline Bonus whereby it was assumed that 80% of budgeted Adjusted EBITDA was achieved, which is the lowest level available before the Baseline Bonus reverts to annual salary in the pre-determined methodology.

The following is a summary of the results of each KPI, the resulting multiplier and weighted percentage applied to the discretionary Baseline Bonus used to calculate the Cash Bonuses for 2024.

KPI	Weighting	2024 Result	Multiplier	Weighted Percentage
Percent of Budgeted Adjusted EBITDA Achieved	60%	In line with the discretionary Baseline Bonus, a discretionary KPI was applied that assumed 80% of budgeted Adjusted EBITDA was achieved and therefore factor of 80% was applied	0.80	48%
Percent of Budgeted Excess Cash flow Achieved	20%	In line with the discretionary Baseline Bonus, a discretionary KPI was applied that assumed 80% of budgeted Excess Cash Flow was achieved and therefore factor of 80% was applied	0.80	16%
TRIR Achieved	10%	3-Year rolling average TRIR was 0.49	1.30	13%
Operating Objectives Achieved	10%	0 of 3 Operating Objectives
1 of 3 Operating Objectives	0
0.8	0%
8%

Based on the above KPI assessment, the weighted percentages applied to the discretionary Baseline Bonuses were 85% and 77% based on the NEOs respective achievement of the Operating Objective KPI.

Commencing in 2023, the HRC Committee determined that a cost of living adjustment was appropriate for the NEOs that reside in the US to account for the large variance between the US and Canadian dollars, and the Cash Bonuses being calculated in Canadian dollars. Based on the formula used for such purpose, the HRC Committee recommended an additional 11% to be applied to the Cash Bonus calculated for such individuals. Additionally, due to Mr. Shafer's individual performance related to the strong revenue growth in the year, he was awarded an additional $50,000. The Cash Bonus payable to the NEOs plus the NEOs' annualized salaries in aggregate did not exceed 8% of adjusted EBITDA achieved, therefore the cap was not applicable to the Cash Bonuses. See "Summary Compensation Table" for details of the final Cash Bonuses awarded to the NEOs.

Long-term Incentive Compensation – Options and Retention Awards

Officers, employees and consultants of the Corporation are eligible to participate in the Option Plan. Awards of Options are made from time to time to participants at varying levels consistent with the individual's position and responsibility. Options are generally granted once annually to executive officers to be consistent with industry practices. Option grants to new employees are recommended by management on a case by case basis and approved by the Board. Additional grants may be made periodically upon recommendation of the HRC Committee in exceptional circumstances. In considering additional Option grants, a number of factors are considered including the number of outstanding Options held by such individual, the value of such Options held by them and the total number of available Options for grant. The Option Plan is utilized with a view of retaining key executives and management, encouraging long-term growth and aligning long-term compensation of senior management with the interests of Shareholders. See "Incentive Plans – Share Option Plan" for additional information concerning the Option Plan.

The Corporation's full-value Retention Award Plan is designed to supplement the Option Plan and to focus and reward executives and employees for enhancing total shareholder return over the long-term both on an absolute and relative basis. The Retention Award Plan results in eligible participants receiving compensation in relation to the value of a specified number of underlying notional Retention Awards in the form of Restricted Awards and Performance Awards.

The Retention Award Plan differentiates between Restricted Awards and Performance Awards, through the use of a Payout Multiplier for the Performance Awards. Award grants to executive officers are heavily weighted to

Performance Awards. The Payout Multiplier applied to Performance Awards at the time of vesting, which is linked solely to Relative TSR, provides a direct link between shareholder return and the level of payout received, if any. If the Relative TSR is below the twenty-fifth $(25^{\text{th}})$ percentile, the Payout Multiplier will be 0x and no payment will be made under the applicable Performance Awards. The Corporation's use of Performance Awards commenced with the granting of such awards in early 2017. All awards granted prior to 2017 were in the form of Restricted Awards. See "Incentive Plans - Retention Award Plan".

Historically, all Retention Awards were only eligible to be settled in cash. In May 2021, the Board approved certain amendments to the Retention Award Plan to provide the Corporation with additional flexibility to permit vested Restricted and Performance Awards to be settled in, at the option of the Corporation, either cash or common shares acquired by an independent trustee in the open market from time to time for such purposes.

Summary of Elements of 2024 Executive Compensation

The following chart outlines the total direct compensation break-down amongst the above-noted compensation categories for the NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2024.

2024 Option Awards and Three-Year Burn Rate

The following table summarizes the number of Options granted during the periods noted below and the potential dilutive effect of such Options.

Period	Options Granted (#)	Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding	Burn Rate(1)
2022	250,000	50,144,334	0.5%
2023	250,000	49,744,410	0.5%
2024	275,000	45,510,072	0.6%

Note:

(1) The burn rate for a given period is calculated by dividing the number of Options granted during such period by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during such period.

2024 Incentive Awards

In February of 2024, the Board, upon unanimous recommendation of the HRC Committee, approved the annual awards under the Retention Award Plan.

Name	Restricted Awards (#)	Performance Awards (#)^{(1)}	Performance Awards as % of Total Award (%)
John Hooks	-	41,939	100
Michael Buker	-	41,939	100
Cameron Ritchie	-	41,939	100
Craig Brown	-	41,939	100
Jeffery Shafer	-	41,939	100

Note:
(1) The Restricted and Performance Awards were all granted effective March 7, 2024. The value of these grants is reported in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Pursuant to the terms of the Retention Award Plan, the payout multiplier for Performance Awards depends solely on Relative TSR. See "Incentive Plans – Retention Award Plan". For the Performance Awards granted in 2024, the Payout Multiplier for the first tranche, which vested on March 7, 2025 was calculated pursuant to the pre-established criteria to be 1.5 based on PHX Energy's percentile ranking of Relative TSR being in the 65th – 74th percentile.

Restrictions on Purchase of Financial Instruments

The Corporation's Disclosure, Confidentiality and Trading Policy provides that directors, officers and all employees of the Corporation, shall not knowingly sell, directly or indirectly, a security of the Corporation if such person selling such security does not own or has not fully paid for the security to be sold. In addition, the Disclosure, Confidentiality and Trading Policy provides that directors, officers and employees of the Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, buy or sell a call or put in respect of a security of the Corporation. Notwithstanding these prohibitions, directors, officers and employees of the Corporation may sell a security which such person does not own if such person owns another security convertible into the security sold or an option or right to acquire the security sold and, within 10 days after the sale, such person: (i) exercises the conversion privilege, option or right and delivers the security so associated to the purchaser; or (ii) transfers the convertible security, option or right, if transferable to the purchaser.

Clawback Policy

In early 2017, the Board adopted and approved a formal recoupment or "clawback" policy on executive incentive compensation including, without limitation, with respect to cash bonuses and Retention Awards that may be awarded to PHX Energy's senior management team when: (i) any of these individuals engages in fraud or willful misconduct which causes or significantly contributes to a re-statement of the Corporation's financial statements due to material non-compliance with any applicable financial reporting requirement under securities laws; (ii) the individuals received incentive compensation calculated on the achievement of those financial results; and (iii) the incentive compensation received would have been lower had the financial statements been properly reported. The policy provides that when a clawback is triggered, the Board may, on the recommendation of the HRC Committee, require the individual to repay the amount of incentive compensation relating to the year(s) subject to the restatement (or received upon exercise of payment of incentive compensation in or following the year(s) subject to the restatement) that is in excess of the incentive compensation the individual would have received if the incentive compensation had been computed in accordance with the results as restated, calculated on an after tax basis.

Share Ownership Guidelines

In order to align interests of executive officers, directors and Shareholders, in November 2016 the Board adopted share ownership guidelines for each of the Corporation's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, and the independent directors. Prior to the leadership changes that occurred in March 2025, the Chief Executive Officer

was required to own and to maintain, directly or indirectly, a minimum number of Common Shares representing the value of not less than three (3) times his annual base salary. In the case of the President and Senior Vice Presidents, the threshold is two (2) times annual base salary, and in the case of the other Vice Presidents, the threshold is one (1) times annual base salary. Each non-management director is required to own and maintain, directly or indirectly, a minimum number of Common Shares having a value of not less than three (3) times the annual cash retainer payable to such directors for services rendered to the Corporation. Any newly appointed directors and executive officers are required to satisfy the guidelines within five (5) years of the date of appointment.

The following table sets out the ownership value guideline for each executive officer and non-management director and whether they have met such guideline as at the date thereof.

Name	Principal Position	Ownership Value Guideline^{(1)} ($)	Guideline Met (Y) or In Progress (IP)^{(2)}
John M. Hooks	Chairman and Executive Board Chair of PHX Energy	1,474,200	Y
Michael Buker	President and Chief Executive Officer of PHX Energy	1,107,483	Y
Cameron M. Ritchie	Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer of PHX Energy	949,271	Y
Craig Brown	Chief Technology Officer of PHX Energy	814,276	Y
Jeffery Shafer	Chief Operating Officer of PHX Energy	814,276	Y
David Raines	Vice President, Sales and Marketing of Phoenix Technology Services USA Inc.	299,986	IP
Garrett Wright	Vice President, Operations of Phoenix Technology Services USA Inc.	410,940	Y
Randolph M. Charron	Director	120,000	Y
Karen David-Green	Director	120,000	Y
Terry D. Freeman	Director	120,000	Y
Lawrence M. Hibbard	Director	120,000	Y
Roger D. Thomas^{(3)}	Director	120,000	Y
Myron A. Tétreault	Director	120,000	Y

Notes:

(1) The ownership value guideline for the executive officers is based on their principal position and base salaries in 2024 and for directors is based on the 2024 annual retainer. For compensation paid in $US to Messrs. Buker, Ritchie, Raines and Wright who reside in the US, an average exchange rate of $1.3698 was used.

(2) Individuals are in compliance if the adjusted cost base of their Common Shares (i.e., the amount paid to acquire the Common Shares) exceeds their ownership guideline.

(3) Mr. Thomas is not standing for re-election at the Meeting.

Summary

The Corporation's compensation policies have allowed the Corporation to attract and retain a team of motivated professionals and support staff working towards the common goal of enhancing Shareholder value. The HRC Committee has reviewed the compensation regime and is satisfied that the current levels of total compensation are reflective of competitive market practices, align pay-for-performance with the interests of Shareholders and support the Corporation's objective to attract, retain and motivate highly capable executive talent. Through the compensation program described above, a significant portion of the compensation for all employees, including executives, is based

on corporate performance, as well as industry-competitive pay practices. The HRC Committee and the Board will continue to review compensation policies to ensure that they are competitive within the oil and natural gas industry and consistent with the performance of the Corporation.

Performance Graphs

Total Shareholder Return

The following graph compares the cumulative total return for $100 invested in the Corporation over the periods indicated in comparison to the S&P/TSX Composite Oil & Gas Equipment and Services Index.

	PHX Energy Services Corp.	S&P/TSX Composite Oil and Gas Equipment & Services Index
December 31, 2018	$100.00	$100.00
December 31, 2019	$90.26	$30.53
December 31, 2020	$164.74	$18.18
December 31, 2021	$305.69	$23.81
December 31, 2022	$347.79	$26.44
December 31, 2023	$435.23	$32.51

Note:
(1) The graph reflects the total cumulative return, assuming the reinvestment of all distributions and dividends where applicable.

Cumulative shareholder return performance reflects both operational and financial performance within the Corporation's control as well as volatile commodity prices and economic and market conditions beyond its control which include, but are not limited to, the impact of the global energy supply and demand imbalances, supply chain challengers including material shortages, inflation and commodity price volatility. In 2024, the Corporation was recognized as a TSX30™ 2024 winner by the TSX. The TSX30™ 2024 list highlights the top-performing TSX stocks, based on average dividend-adjusted three-year price performance for the period ended June 30, 2023. PHX Energy's shares increased by 152%. The Corporation believes this recognition reinforces the strength of our ROCS and the value it continues to deliver to our shareholders.

Salaries and bonuses for the Corporation's executive officers are based in part on the achievement of certain predetermined performance targets at the beginning of each fiscal year. The achievement of these objectives is measured against corporate and individual targets, as described earlier, and does not necessarily track the changes in the market value of the Common Shares. However, the compensation received by the Named Executive Officers (as defined herein) has historically generally corresponded with fluctuations in the Corporation's total return over the periods indicated on the above graph due to the inherent link between the value of Options and Retention Awards granted under the Option Plan and Retention Award Plan, respectively, and fluctuations in the market price of its Common Shares. The Corporation's long-term incentive plans are designed to align the interests of all employees with Shareholders by linking a component of compensation to share performance.

Notes:
(1) Reflects Options granted under the Option Plan based on the grant date fair value of the applicable Options. The grant date fair value for compensation purposes is calculated using Black-Scholes option pricing methodology with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2024 - 4%, 2023 - 4%, and 2022 - 1.4%, annual dividends of 2024 - 8.66, 2023 - 7.87, and 2022 - 4.89; a five-year term for all years; forfeiture rate of 2024 - nil, 2023 - nil, and 2022 - nil; and volatility of 2024 - 41%, 2023 - 54%, and 2022 - 54%.

(2) This column shows the long-term incentive annual award of Retention Awards in the form of Restricted Awards and Performance Awards under the Retention Award Plan. The actual value realized pursuant to such Retention Awards may be greater or less than the indicated value. The values shown in the table for all of the NEOs in 2022 exclude the value of an additional 75,000 Performance Awards that were initially granted to each of the NEOs in March of 2022, but which were subsequently voluntarily surrendered and forfeited for nominal consideration in December of 2022 prior to any vestings of such Performance Awards occurring. The surrendered awards would have reflected an additional grant date award value of $456,000, per NEO respectively. For additional information regarding the valuation methodology, see "Incentive Award Valuation" below.

(3) Reflects amounts awarded to the NEOs under PHX Energy's Bonus Plan for performance in 2024 and 2023, which was payable in cash. See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Short-term Incentives – Bonuses"

(10) Messrs. Ritchie and Buker reside in Houston, Texas. The Base Salary in all years and cash portion of the Bonus Plan compensation paid to Mr. Buker and Mr. Ritchie in all three years were paid in US dollars and converted to Canadian dollars. An average exchange rate of $1.3544 in 2022, $1.3495 in 2023, and $1.3698 was applied in 2024.

Incentive Award Valuation

The Corporation's general practice is to grant Retention Awards on an annual basis. In 2024, the annual grant of Retention Awards was made effective March 7, 2024. Each of the NEOs were recipients of the awards granted on this date.

For purposes of this executive compensation disclosure, the fair value of the Retention Awards was determined by multiplying the number of Restricted Awards and Performance Awards granted by the weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX for the five-day period ended prior to the grant date. This calculation assumes a payout multiplier of 1x for the Performance Awards.

The fair value of the Incentive Awards presented in this executive compensation disclosure differs from the fair value determined in accordance with IFRS for financial statement purposes. Under IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment", the fair value of Retention Awards is determined at the date of grant using the market price of the Common Shares and, for Performance Awards, applying an estimated payout multiplier.

The two main differences between PHX Energy's approach to calculating the fair value of the Retention Awards for purposes of this executive compensation disclosure and IFRS are the methodology used to value the underlying Common Shares and, for purposes of valuing the Performance Awards, the estimated payout multiplier. As stated above, PHX Energy uses a five-day weighted average trading price, which is consistent with the approach it uses to value the Retention Awards for income tax purposes. Under IFRS, the market price of the Common Shares on the date of grant is used.

Pursuant to the terms of the Retention Award Plan, the payout multiplier for Performance Awards is dependent on the performance of PHX Energy relative to returns on securities of members of its peer comparison group and can be within a range of 0x (for 25th percentile ranking) and 2x (for 85th – 100th percentile ranking). See "Incentive Plans – Retention Award Plan". For purposes of this executive compensation disclosure, the HRC Committee determined to use a payout multiplier of 1x, being the mid-point of the low and high potential payout multipliers. Under IFRS, an

initial estimated payout multiplier, of 1x was used. This multiplier is adjusted to reflect management's best estimate of the liability on an on-going basis as new information becomes available. As there can be no assurance that future performance will match historical performance, the HRC Committee prefers to use a mid-point payout multiplier. This approach is also consistent with the approach followed by other issuers in the peer group with similar plans and with the methodology specified in the Retention Award Plan for calculating the value of any performance awards granted to non-management directors.

The following table sets forth the fair values of awards on the applicable grant date and the payout multipliers used by PHX Energy for this executive compensation disclosure and as determined under IFRS:

Grant Date	Fair Value of Share Awards		Payout Multiplier for Performance Awards
	PHX	IFRS	PHX	IFRS
March 7, 2024	$9.17	$9.24	1	1

(2) Represents the weighted average exercise price of Options as at December 31, 2024.
(3) The Corporation does not have any compensation plans other than the Option Plan under which common shares may be issued from Treasury.

Share Option Plan

The Corporation has the Option Plan which is intended to afford persons who provide services to the Corporation an opportunity to obtain a proprietary interest in the Corporation by permitting them to purchase Common Shares and to aid in attracting as well as retaining and encouraging the continued involvement of such persons with the Corporation. The Option Plan permits the granting of Options to officers, employees of, consultants to and other eligible service providers ("Optionees") of and to the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Directors of the Corporation who are not officers or employees of the Corporation or its subsidiaries are not eligible for participation in the Option Plan.

A complete copy of the Option Plan is attached at Appendix C to this Information Circular.

The maximum number of Common Shares issuable on exercise of Options outstanding at any time is limited, in the aggregate, to 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Any increase in the issued and outstanding Common Shares (whether as a result of exercise of Options or otherwise) will result in an increase in the number of Common Shares that may be issued on exercise of Options outstanding at any time and any increase in the number of Options granted, upon exercise, makes new grants available under the Option Plan. Options that are cancelled, terminated or expire prior to exercise of all or a portion thereof shall result in the Common Shares that were reserved for issuance thereunder being available for a subsequent grant of Options pursuant to the Option Plan.

The number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to Options granted under the Option Plan or any other security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation: (i) to insiders (as defined in the Option Plan) at any time may not exceed 10% of the outstanding Common Shares; and (ii) issued to insiders (as defined in the Option Plan) within any one year period may not exceed 10% of the outstanding Common Shares. Options granted under the Option Plan are not assignable.

Options have a term not to exceed five years and, subject to the terms of the Option Plan, shall vest in such manner as determined by the Board or a committee of the Board appointed from time to time to administer the Option Plan (the Board or, if appointed, such committee is referred to as the "Committee"). In the absence of any determination to the contrary, Options will vest and be exercisable as to one-third on each of the six (6) month, eighteen (18) month and thirty (30) month anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the acceleration of vesting in the discretion of the Committee. If an Option is set to expire in seven (7) business days following the end of a "Black Out Period" (as such term is defined in the Option Plan) and the Optionee is subject to the Black Out Period, the expiry date of the Option shall be extended for seven (7) business days following the Black Out Period.

The exercise price of any Options granted will be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, provided that the exercise price shall not be less than the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX (or other stock exchange on which the Common Shares may be listed) for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of grant (or, in the case of Options granted to US Optionees, not less than the closing trading price on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant). The Corporation does not provide financial assistance to Optionees to facilitate Option exercises.

The Option Plan provides Optionees with an election, if permitted by the Committee, for a cashless exercise ("Cashless Exercise") of an Optionee's vested and exercisable Options. If an Optionee elects a Cashless Exercise the Optionee shall surrender its Options in exchange for the issuance by the Corporation of that number of Common Shares equal to the number determined by dividing the Market Price (as defined in the Option Plan and as calculated as at the date of exercise) into the difference between the Market Price and the exercise price of such Option. In addition, the Option Plan also provides that an Optionee has the right to make an offer (the "Surrender Offer") to the Corporation to surrender any of the Options held by such person for an amount (not to exceed the fair market value) specified therein by the Optionee and the Corporation may, but is not obligated to, accept the Surrender Offer, subject to any regulatory approval required.

The Option Plan contains customary anti-dilution provisions which provide for adjustments to be made in the event of consolidations, subdivisions or payment of stock dividends in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted under the Option Plan.

If an Optionee ceases to be an officer, employee of, or service provider to, the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation for any reason, the Optionee shall have a period not in excess of six months as prescribed at the time of grant and in the absence of any determination as to the contrary will be ninety (90) days (12 months in the case of death), succeeding his ceasing to be an officer, employee or consultant or other service provider to exercise Options (the "Option Termination Date") held to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the options at the date of such cessation. In the case of a merger, amalgamation or certain other transactions or a take-over bid approved by the Board, the Corporation has the right to satisfy any obligations to an Optionee in respect of any unexercised Options by paying to the Optionee a cash amount equal to the difference between the exercise price of all unexercised Options held and the fair market value of the securities to which the Optionee would have been entitled to receive on exercise thereof.

Without the prior approval of the Shareholders and such approval as may be required by the Exchange, the Committee may NOT: (i) make any amendment to the Option Plan to increase the percentage of Common Shares reserved for issuance on exercise of outstanding Options at any time, (ii) reduce the exercise price of any outstanding Options (including without limitation any cancellation and reissuance of any Option constituting a reduction of the exercise price), (iii) extend the term of any outstanding Option beyond the original expiry date of such Option, (iv) make an amendment to increase the maximum limit on the number of securities that may be issued to insiders, (v) make an amendment to permit the introduction of non-employee directors as eligible participants to the Option Plan, (vi) make any amendment to the Option Plan to permit an Optionee to transfer or assign Options to a new beneficial Optionee other than in the case of death of the Optionee, or (vii) amend the restrictions on amendments that are provided in the Option Plan. Subject to the restrictions set out above, the Board may amend or discontinue the Option Plan and Options granted thereunder at any time without Shareholder approval; provided any amendment to the Option Plan that requires approval of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading may not be made without approval of such stock exchange. In addition, no amendment to the Option Plan or Options granted pursuant to the Option Plan may be made without the consent of the Optionee, if it adversely alters or impairs any Option previously granted to such Optionee.

The policies of the TSX require that all unallocated Options be approved every three years by Shareholders. The Corporation last obtained approval of Shareholders for the grant of unallocated Options for a further three year term at its annual and special meeting held on May 5, 2022. There have been no amendments to the Option Plan since this approval was last obtained. Shareholders are being asked at the Meeting to re-approve unallocated Options for a further three year term. See "Matters to Be Acted Upon at the Meting – Three Year Re-Approval of Unallocated Options Pursuant to the Corporation's Option Plan"

Cash Bonus Plan

The Corporation has established a cash bonus plan for its executive officers and employees based and dependent upon, among other things, the performance of both the Corporation and the individual for the applicable period. See "Elements of PHX Energy's Executive Compensation Program – Short-term Incentives – Bonuses".

Retention Award Plan

The Corporation has a full-value Retention Award Plan, which provides for the granting of Retention Awards to directors, officers, employees, consultants and other service providers of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The Retention Award Plan provides an additional long-term incentive designed to focus and reward directors, executives, employees and other service providers to the Corporation for enhancing the total shareholder return over the long-term both on an absolute and relative basis. The Retention Award Plan results in eligible participants receiving compensation in relation to the value of a specified number of underlying notional Common Shares.

The Retention Award Plan is not a treasury share based compensation plan and, accordingly, the Corporation is not eligible to issue any Common Shares from treasury in connection with the settlement of Retention Awards under the Retention Award Plan.

The Retention Award Plan was initially adopted by the Corporation in connection with the payment of cash bonuses to which certain key executives of the Corporation were entitled, and pursuant to which 25% of the total cash bonus award was made payable in Retention Awards. The Retention Award Plan continues to be used in connection with cash bonus entitlements settled with Restricted Awards ("Bonus Awards") and in connection with other grants of stand-alone Retention Awards which the HRC Committee and Board may determine appropriate from time to time as a method of supplementing the total compensation package of service providers to the Corporation on an individualized basis.

In early 2017, upon the recommendation of the HRC Committee, the Board approved certain amendments to the Retention Award Plan so as to introduce a differentiation between Restricted Awards and Performance Awards, through the use of a Payout Multiplier for the Performance Awards. The Payout Multiplier, which is linked solely to total shareholder return on the Common Shares relative to returns on securities of members of the Corporation's peer comparison group over the applicable period, provides a direct link between shareholder return and the level of payout received, if any. If the Relative TSR is below the twenty-fifth (25th) percentile, the Payout Multiplier will be 0x and no payments will be made under the applicable Performance Awards. The Corporation's use of Performance Awards commenced with the granting of such awards in early 2017. Non-management directors are not entitled to receive Performance Awards but are entitled to receive Restricted Awards.

To determine the size of Retention Awards, an appropriate dollar amount, relative to overall individual responsibilities and performance is attributed and such award values are then divided by the five (5) day weighted average trading price of the Common Shares ending immediately prior to the grant date to calculate the number of Retention Awards granted. Unless otherwise provided, the Retention Awards (other than Bonus Awards) vest as to one-third of the number of Retention Awards granted on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to acceleration in certain instances including in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Retention Award Plan). Bonus Awards typically vest as to one-third of the Bonus Awards granted on each of the dates 4, 8 and 12 months following the grant date.

In the case of Restricted Awards, upon vesting, the holder is entitled to a sum (the "Award Value") calculated by multiplying the number of Restricted Awards by the fair market value of the Common Shares on the vesting date. The fair market value (the "Fair Market Value") is determined as the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date, as adjusted to reflect accrued reinvested dividends, if any.

In the case of Performance Awards, the Award Value is calculated on the vesting date by first adjusting the number of Performance Awards to reflect the applicable Payout Multiplier and multiplying the adjusted number of Performance Awards by the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares on the vesting date. The Payout Multiplier is determined by the Board on or immediately prior to each vesting date, at which time the Board shall assess the performance of the Corporation for the applicable period and provide percentile ranking based upon the Corporation's Relative TSR. The Payout Multiplier for a particular period is calculated as follows:

Relative TSR Percentile	Payout Multiplier
Below 25th	0x
25th - 34th	0.33x
35th - 44th	0.67x
45th -54th	1.00x
55th - 64th	1.25x
65th - 74th	1.50x
75th - 84th	1.75x
85th - 100th	2.00x

Under the original terms of the Retention Award Plan, the Award Value to which a holder was entitled upon vesting was settled by the Corporation solely in cash. In May of 2021, upon the recommendation of the HRC Committee, in order to provide greater flexibility, the Board approved and implemented certain amendments to the Retention Award Plan (the "2021 Plan Amendments") including, without limitation, to provide the Corporation, at its sole and absolute discretion, with the additional option of settling the Award Value payable in respect of a Retention Award in Common Shares acquired in the open market by an independent trustee for such purposes.

Upon a grantee ceasing to be a service provider (other by reason of death or termination for cause), all unvested Retention Awards will be deemed to be cancelled without any payment thereunder. If a grantee ceases to be a service provider by reason of termination for cause, all rights of such grantee in respect of Retention Awards are forfeited and terminated without any payment. In the event of the death of a grantee, all Retention Awards held by the grantee on the date of death shall vest automatically.

Pension Plan Benefits

The Corporation does not have a pension plan.

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

The Corporation has entered into executive employment agreements ("Executive Employment Agreements") with all of its Named Executive Officers that provide for termination payments as described herein. The Executive Employment Agreements continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the terms thereof and the base salary payable thereunder is subject to annual review. The executive is entitled to participate in and receive all rights and benefits under any benefit plans maintained by the Corporation for employees generally and executive officers. All group benefits from employment, including short and long-term disability coverage, if any, cease on the executive's last day of active employment regardless of the reason thereof.

The Executive Employment Agreements may be terminated by the Corporation at any time for just cause and in such case, the executive is entitled to payment of any pro rata annual base salary earned but unpaid through to the cessation date, any declared but unpaid cash bonuses or commissions, as applicable, and accrued and unused vacation and reimbursable expenses. The Executive Employment Agreements may be terminated by the Corporation without just cause upon payment of: (i) the pro rata amount of annual base salary to and including cessation of employment, accrued and unused vacation pay and reimbursable expenses and any awarded but unpaid cash bonuses, as applicable, (ii) a retiring allowance (the "Retiring Allowance"). The Retiring Allowance in the case of all of the NEOs is equal to one and one-half times the executive's then annual base salary plus 15% of the executive's annual base salary to compensate for loss of benefits, plus one and a half times the average of any cash bonuses, as applicable, paid to the executive in the three years prior to the executive's date of termination, and (iii) provided that the NEO has been employed for more than three (3) months of the calendar year of the date of termination, an additional payment equal to the average of the prior three (3) cash bonuses paid to the NEO prorated for the period of time that the NEO was employed during the year of the date of termination.

In the case of all of the NEOs, in the event of a "Change of Control" (as such term is defined in the Executive Employment Agreements), if within one year of the Change of Control, an event or events occur that constitute "Good Reason", the executive has the right, for a period of ninety (90) days following the event or events that constitute Good Reason, to elect to terminate the Executive Employment Agreement and be paid the applicable Retiring Allowance. Good Reason is defined for these purposes as any adverse change by the Corporation and without the agreement of the executive, in any of the duties, powers, rights, discretions, salary, title, lines of reporting or the requirement that the executive be based anywhere other than the Calgary executive office on a normal and regular basis, such that immediately after such change or series of changes, the responsibilities and status of the executive, taken as a whole, are not at least substantially equivalent to those assigned to the executive immediately prior to such change or any reason which would otherwise constitute constructive dismissal.

In each case in which the Retiring Allowance becomes payable, in order to receive same, the executive is required to provide a release in favour of the Corporation and its affiliates in form satisfactory to the Corporation. In the event that the executive terminates the Executive Employment Agreement following a Change of Control, the executive

agrees, at the written request of the Corporation, to continue employment for a period of up to one month, at the executive's current compensation package, to assist the Corporation in an orderly transition of management.

Upon termination of the Executive Employment Agreements for any reason or upon a Change of Control, there is no automatic acceleration of, or any other benefit relating to, any Options held by the executives but certain of such Options are required to be exercised within a specified period of time upon ceasing to be a service provider to the Corporation. Pursuant to the Option Plan, the Board may however, at its discretion, accelerate vesting of Options.

Pursuant to the Retention Award Plan, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Retention Award Plan) any unvested Retention Awards vest immediately prior to the time of Change of Control and all Retention Awards will be deemed to be automatically exercised on the date of the Change of Control. In the case of Performance Awards, the Award Value is calculated on the vesting date (immediately prior to the time of Change of Control) by first adjusting the number of Performance Awards to reflect the Board assessed Payout Multiplier for the applicable vesting period.

The following table illustrates the estimated incremental payments and benefits that would have been made to each of the Named Executive Officers pursuant to the terms of their Executive Employment Agreements, Options and Retention Awards, as applicable, as a result of a Change of Control, resignation or termination event, assuming such events occurred on December 31, 2024.

Notes:
(1) The payments or benefits are triggered if an executive terminates his employment within one year following a Change of Control if an event or events occur which constitute Good Reason.

(2) There is no automatic acceleration of Options in the event of a Change of Control. Vesting of Options and the acceleration of vesting is at the discretion of the Board. If Options were accelerated by the Board in the event of a Change of Control, Options to purchase 50,001, 50,001, 50,001, 50,001 and 50,001 Common Shares would have been accelerated in respect of Messrs. Hooks, Buker, Ritchie, Brown and Shafer, respectively, having the values set forth in the table above at December 31, 2024, based on the closing price of the Common Shares of $9.32 on December 31, 2024 less the applicable exercise prices.

(3) In the case of the Retention Awards, the amounts shown are in respect of the grants for awards whose vesting is accelerated as a result of the event of a Change of Control. Amounts are based on the closing price of the Common Shares on December 31, 2024 of $9.32 and do not include any adjustment to reflect reinvestment of dividends. For Performance Awards, a payout multiplier of 1x is assumed.

(4) For compensation paid in $US to Mr. Buker and Mr. Ritchie who reside in the Houston, Texas, an average exchange rate of $1.3698 was used for this purpose.

REMUNERATION OF DIRECTORS

Director compensation is reviewed annually by the HRC Committee. The compensation program for directors includes a base retainer, meeting fees and participation under the Retention Award Plan, the benefit of which is tied to shareholder return.

In 2024, Independent Directors were entitled to receive an annual retainer of $40,000 as well as a fee of $1,735 for each meeting of the Board or Committee of the Board attended. The Lead Director receives an additional annual retainer of $23,100. Each of the Chairs of the Audit Committee and HRC Committee receive an additional $17,325 per year and the Chair of the NCG Committee receives an additional $11,550 per year. Directors are also entitled to be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in carrying out their duties as directors.

The Corporation has the Retention Award Plan pursuant to which the Corporation may grant Retention Awards to service providers to the Corporation, including its directors. Non-management directors are only entitled to receive Retention Awards in the form of Restricted Awards and not Performance Awards. See "Incentive Plans – Retention Award Plan".

The Lead Director is to consider, and allow for, when appropriate, a meeting of all independent directors, so that Board meetings may take place without management being present. The Lead Director is to endeavour to ensure that reasonable procedures are in place for directors to engage outside advisors at the expense of the Corporation in appropriate circumstances, subject to its prior approval and is to meet annually with each director to obtain insight as to where they believe the Board and its committees could operate more effectively.

While the Corporation does not currently have a formal orientation and education program for new recruits to the Board, the Corporation has historically provided such orientation and education on an informal basis. As new directors have joined the Board, management has provided these individuals with corporate policies, historical information about the Corporation and the industry, as well as information on corporate governance and an outline of the general duties and responsibilities entailed in carrying out their duties. The Board believes that these procedures have proved to be a practical and effective approach in light of the Corporation's particular circumstances, including the size of the Corporation and the experience and expertise of the members of the Board.

No formal continuing education program currently exists for the directors of the Corporation; however, the Corporation encourages directors to attend, enroll or participate in courses and/or seminars dealing with financial literacy, corporate governance and related matters and has agreed to pay the cost of such courses and seminars. In addition, members of the Board along with senior employees of the Corporation maintain subscriptions in a variety of professional organizations which provide ongoing professional development seminars and materials. The information received through subscriptions in these organizations is shared regularly among Board members. Further, the Corporation regularly invites guest speakers to present at Board meetings on topics of relevance to its directors and their obligations.

In addition, in certain cases, an independent committee of the Board may be formed to deliberate on such matters in the absence of the interested party. The Corporation also relies upon the provisions of its Code in respect of such matters.

In addition to the Code, the Board has also adopted a "Whistleblower Policy" wherein employees of the Corporation are provided with the mechanics by which they may raise concerns with respect to a possible violation of the Corporation's disclosure standards, accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters, breach of policy, or illegal acts in a confidential, anonymous process. The Whistleblower Policy is posted to the Corporation's website.

In addition, the Board has also adopted an "Anti-Corruption and Anti-Bribery Policy" which is designed to ensure that the Corporation is at all times compliant with anti-corruption laws which prohibit bribery of both foreign and domestic public officials and to ensure that the Corporation does not receive an improper advantage in its business dealings and that all payments and expenses are properly recorded in its financial books and records. The Board believes in ethical and fair practises for conducting domestic and international business and it committed to a zero tolerance stance towards bribery and any other form of corruptive behaviour on the part of any of the Corporation's employees, executive officers, directors and third parties with whom the Corporation conducts business.

The process comprises a discussion by the members of the NCG Committee regarding the skills, knowledge, experience, diversity and effectiveness of the Board as a whole, as well as on an individual member basis, together with a review of additional skills, knowledge and experience that could potentially increase Board effectiveness further. The NCG Committee annually reviews the skills, knowledge, experience and character, as well as diversity of perspective and thought, of the existing directors and develops profiles for suitable additional directors. The Committee then makes recommendations to the Board as to whether any changes or additions should be made to the composition of the Board. The Board also has a Lead Director, whose mandate includes, without limitation, meeting with each of the directors individually at least on an annual basis to provide individual feedback regarding various matters including, without limitation, the effectiveness of the Board, its committees and individual directors.

10. Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal

(a) Disclose whether or not the issuer has adopted term limits for the directors on its Board or other mechanisms of Board renewal and, if so, include a description of those director term limits or other mechanisms of Board renewal. If the issuer has not adopted director term limits or other mechanisms of Board renewal, disclose why it has not done so.

While the Board of the Corporation has adopted a Board tenure policy, it has not adopted term limits for directors. The Board does not believe that fixed term limits are in the best interest of the Corporation. When proposing a slate of nominees for nomination as directors, the NCG Committee considers the term of service of individual directors, the average term of the Board as a whole and turnover of directors over prior years. Furthermore, the NCG Committee considers the benefits of regular renewal in the context of the needs of the Board at the time and the benefits of having a Board whose members are familiar with the Corporation and its business through past service.

11. Policies Regarding the Representation of Women on the Board

(a) Disclose whether the issuer has adopted a written policy relating to the identification and nomination of women directors. If the issuer has not adopted such a policy, disclose why it has not done so.

The Corporation has adopted a written Diversity Policy addressing the identification and nomination of women directors. See "Board Diversity" in the Information Circular for a detailed description of the Diversity Policy.

(b) If an issuer has adopted a policy referred to in (a), disclose the following in respect of the policy: (i) a short summary of its objectives and key provisions; (ii) the measures taken to ensure that the policy has been effectively implemented; (iii) annual and cumulative progress by the issuer in achieving the objectives of the policy; and (iv) whether and, if so, how the Board or its nominating committee measures the effectiveness of the policy.

PHX Energy recognizes the value that women can bring to its Board. The nomination and appointment of directors with diverse skills, knowledge, experience and gender contributes to balanced perspective, debate and decision making which improves organizational strength, opportunity for innovation, corporate culture and continued success. When assessing Board composition or identifying suitable candidates for appointment or re-election to the Board, the NCG Committee will consider the skills, knowledge and experience of individual candidates having due regard for the benefits of gender representation on the Board.

To ensure the application of these principles, the Diversity Policy provides that the NCG Committee will:

(i) consider only candidates who are highly qualified based on, among other considerations, their skills, knowledge and experience;

(ii) consider diversity characteristics, including age, race, colour, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation and geographical background, of the candidates;

(iii) consider the level of representation of women on the Board; and

The NCG Committee has also established a "skills matrix" outlining the skills, knowledge and experience it believes are required by the members of the Board. See "Election of Directors – Experience and Background of Directors".

A-11

The skills matrix and Board composition are reviewed annually by the NCG Committee to assess (i) the skills, knowledge and experience necessary for the Board, as a whole, to possess in order to effectively discharge its duties and mandate; (ii) the skills, knowledge and experience that each existing director possesses; (iii) whether the existing skills, knowledge, experience and perspective of the Board can be strengthened in any area (including without limitation, representation of women); (iv) when applicable, the skills, knowledge, experience and perspective that new candidates possess; and (iv) whether or not candidates can devote sufficient time and resources to his or her duties.

12. Consideration of the Representation of Women in the Director Identification and Selection Process

(a) Disclose whether and, if so, how the Board or nominating committee considers the level of representation of women on the Board in identifying and nominating candidates for election or re-election to the Board. If the issuer does not consider the level or representation of women on the Board in identifying and nominating candidates for election or re-election to the Board, disclose the issuer's reason for not doing so.

See the response in Section 11 above.

To ensure the effectiveness of the Diversity Policy, the NCG Committee will monitor the process undertaken in connection with the selection of nominees for directors to ensure the skills, knowledge and experience of any candidates, including women candidates, are being fairly considered relative to other candidates. The NCG Committee will also review the number of women appointed and serving on the Board annually to evaluate whether it is desirable to adopt additional requirements or policies with respect to the diversity of the Board.

13. Consideration Given to the Representation of Women in Executive Officer Appointments

(a) Disclose whether and, if so, how the issuer considers the level of representation of women in executive officer positions when making executive officer appointments. If the issuer does not consider the level of representation of women in executive officer positions when making executive officer appointments, disclose the issuer's reasons for not doing so.

The Board of the Corporation believes that executive officer appointments should be made on the basis of the skills, knowledge, experience and character of individual candidates and the requirements of management at the time. The Corporation is committed to considering the broadest group of individuals who have the skills, knowledge, experience and character required to provide the leadership needed to achieve the Corporation's business objectives, is in the best interests of the Corporation and its stakeholders.

The NCG Committee annually reviews appointments to executive officer positions to ensure that individuals with the appropriate skills, knowledge, experience and character are being fairly considered. The Committee also evaluates whether it is desirable to adopt additional requirements or policies with respect to the diversity of management.

14. Issuer's Targets Regarding the Representation of Women on the Board and in Executive Officer Positions

(a) For purposes of this item, a "target" means a number or percentage, or a range of numbers or percentages, adopted by the issuer of women on the issuer's Board or in executive officer positions of the issuer by a specific date.

(b) Disclose whether the issuer has adopted a target regarding women on the issuer's Board. If the issuer has not adopted a target, disclose why it has not done so.

(c) Disclose whether the issuer has adopted a target regarding women in executive officer positions of the issuer. If the issuer has not adopted a target, disclose why it has not done so.

A-12

(d) If the issuer has adopted a target referred to in either (b) or (c), disclose:

(i) the target; and
(ii) the annual and cumulative progress of the issuer in achieving the target.

The Board recognizes the benefits of diversity within the Board and within management of the Corporation and consider gender as one of a number of attributes including skills, knowledge, experience character, and diversity generally when considering nominations to the Board or for appointment to Management. For this reason, the Corporation has not adopted a gender target. The Board recognises the benefits of diversity within management and encourages the consideration of woman who have the necessary skills, knowledge, experience and character when considering new potential candidates for executive officer positions.

15. Number of Women on the Board and in Executive Officer Positions

(a) Disclose the number and proportion (in percentage terms) of directors on the issuer's Board who are women.
(b) Disclose the number and proportion (in percentage terms) of executive officers of the issuer, including all major subsidiaries of the issuer, who are women.

One woman is currently a member of the Corporation's Board (14%). Of the nominee directors, one woman is proposed for election to the Board (14%). While several women hold key management roles in the Corporation, no executive officer positions are currently held by women.

6. Vesting of Options

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine: (i) the time during which Options shall vest; (ii) the method of vesting; or (iii) that no vesting restriction shall exist.

Subject to the next paragraph, the exercise price of Options granted under the Plan shall be fixed by the Committee and if the Common Shares are listed on a stock exchange, the exercise price of the Options shall not be less than the Market Price or such other minimum price as may be required by the stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed at the time of grant.

8. Option Terms

Each Option shall, among other things, contain provisions to the effect that the Option shall be personal to the Optionee and shall not be assignable. In addition, each Option shall provide that:

(a) upon the death of the Optionee, the Option shall terminate on the date determined by the Committee which shall not be more than twelve (12) months from the date of death and, in the absence of any determination to the contrary, will be six (6) months from the date of death; and

provided that the number of Common Shares that the Optionee (or his or her heirs or successors) shall be entitled to purchase until such Termination Date shall be the number of Common Shares which the Optionee was entitled to purchase on the Termination Date.

The Plan does not confer upon an Optionee any right with respect to continuation of service by the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof, nor does it interfere in any way with the right of the Optionee, the Corporation or a subsidiary thereof to terminate the Optionee's employment or service provision at any time.

If the normal expiry date of any Options falls within any Black-Out Period or within seven (7) business days following the end of any Black-Out Period ("Black-Out Options"), then the Expiry Date of such Black-Out Options shall, without any further action, be extended to the date that is seven (7) business days following the end of such Black-Out Period. The foregoing extension applies to all Options held by Optionees other than U.S. Optionees whatever the date of grant and shall not be considered an extension of the term of the Options as referred to in Section 20(a) hereof.

9. Exercise of Option

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, an Option may be exercised from time to time by delivery to the Corporation at its head office in Calgary, Alberta or such other place as may be specified by the Corporation, of a written notice of exercise specifying the number of Common Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price of the shares then being purchased and payment in full of any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 18.

10. Cashless Exercise

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, if permitted by the Committee, an Optionee may elect to exercise an Option by surrendering such Option in exchange for the issuance of Common Shares equal to the number determined by dividing the Market Price (calculated as at the date of exercise) into the difference between the Market Price (calculated as at the date of exercise) and the exercise price of such Option. An Option may be exercised pursuant to this Section 10 from time to time by delivery to the Corporation at its head office in Calgary, Alberta or such other place as may be specified by the Corporation, of a written notice of exercise specifying that the Optionee has elected to a cashless exercise of such Option and the number of Options to be exercised. The Corporation will not be required, upon the exercise of any Options pursuant to this Section 10, to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Common Shares. In lieu of fractional Common Shares, there will be paid to the Optionee by the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options pursuant to this Section 10 within ten (10) business days after the exercise date, an amount in lawful money of Canada equal to the then fair market value of such fractional interest (as determined by the Committee),

C-5

provided that the Corporation will not be required to make any payment, calculated as aforesaid, that is less than $10.00. Upon exercise of the foregoing, the number of Common Shares actually issued shall be deducted from the number of Common Shares reserved with the Exchange for future issuance under the Plan and the balance of the Common Shares that were issuable pursuant to the Options so surrendered shall be considered to have been cancelled and available for further issuance.

11. Surrender Offer

An Optionee may make an offer (the "Surrender Offer") to the Corporation, at any time, for the disposition and surrender by the Optionee to the Corporation (and the termination thereof) of any of the Options granted hereunder for an amount (not to exceed fair market value) specified therein by the Optionee and the Corporation may, but is not obligated to, accept the Surrender Offer, subject to any regulatory approval required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Options held by U.S. Optionees, the amount specified by the Optionee and accepted by the Corporation may not exceed the fair market value of the Common Shares subject to such Option minus the Option exercise price. If the Surrender Offer, either as made or as renegotiated, is accepted, the Options in respect of which the Surrender Offer relates shall be surrendered and deemed to be terminated and cancelled and shall cease to grant the Optionee any further rights thereunder upon payment of the amount of the agreed Surrender Offer by the Corporation to the Optionee. Upon the surrender and termination of Options pursuant to a Surrender Offer, the Common Shares issuable pursuant to such Options shall, for purposes of the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance with the Exchange, be available for further grants. The Corporation may at its sole discretion elect to allow an Optionee to claim such deductions in computing taxable income of such Optionee, if any, that may be available to the Optionee in respect of any amount received by the Optionee pursuant to this section 11, however, the Corporation is under no obligation, express or implied, to make such election.

12. Alterations in Shares

In the event, at any time or from time to time, that the share capital of the Corporation shall be consolidated or subdivided prior to the exercise by the Optionee, in full, of any Option in respect of all of the shares granted or the Corporation shall pay a dividend upon the Common Shares by way of issuance to the holders thereof of additional Common Shares, Options with respect to any shares which have not been purchased at the time of any such consolidation, subdivision or stock dividend shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Optionee shall from time to time, upon the exercise of an Option, be entitled to receive the number of shares of the Corporation the Optionee would have held following such consolidation, subdivision or stock dividend if the Optionee had purchased the shares and had held such shares immediately prior to such consolidation, subdivision or stock dividend. Upon any such adjustments being made, the Optionee shall be bound by such adjustments and shall accept the terms of such Options in lieu of the Options previously outstanding. Any and all adjustments to the Common Shares are subject to Exchange approval.

13. Mergers, Amalgamation and Sale

If the Corporation shall become merged (whether by plan of arrangement or otherwise) or amalgamated in or with another corporation or shall sell the whole or substantially the whole of its assets and undertakings for shares or securities of another corporation or other entity, the Corporation shall, subject to this Section 13, make provision that, upon exercise of an Option during its unexpired period after the effective date of such merger, amalgamation or sale, the Optionee shall receive such number of shares of the continuing successor corporation or other entity in such merger or amalgamation or the securities or shares of the purchasing corporation or other entity as the Optionee would have received as a result of such merger, amalgamation or sale if the Optionee had purchased the shares of the Corporation immediately prior thereto for the same consideration paid on the exercise of the Option and had held such shares on the effective date of such merger, amalgamation or sale and, upon such provision being made, the obligation of the Corporation to the Optionee in respect of the Common Shares subject to the Option shall terminate and be at an end and the Optionee shall cease to have any further rights in respect thereof. Alternatively, and in lieu of making such provision in the event of such merger, amalgamation or sale, or in the event that a take-over bid (which is not exempt from the take-over bid requirements of the Securities Act (Alberta) or its replacement or successor provisions) shall be made for Common Shares and if such take-over bid shall have been approved or recommended for acceptance by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the Corporation shall have the right to satisfy any obligations to the Optionee in respect of any Options outstanding by paying to the Optionee, in cash, and as proceeds of disposition for this Option, the difference between the

C-6

exercise price of all unexercised Options granted hereunder and the fair market value of the securities to which the Optionee would be entitled upon exercise of all unexercised Options. The Corporation may, at its sole discretion, elect to allow an Optionee to claim such deductions in computing taxable income of such Optionee, if any, that may be available to the Optionee in respect of any amount received by the Optionee pursuant to this Section 13, however, the Corporation is under no obligation, express or implied, to make such election. Adjustments under this section and any determinations as to fair market value of any securities shall be made by the Committee, and any reasonable determination made by the Committee shall be binding and conclusive upon and, upon payment as aforesaid, the Options shall terminate and the Optionee shall cease to have any further rights in respect thereof.

14. No Rights as a Shareholder

An Optionee shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Corporation in respect of any Common Shares issuable upon exercise of an Option until certificates representing such Common Shares have been issued and delivered.

15. Cessation of Employment

For the purposes of this Plan and all option agreements, unless otherwise provided in the applicable option agreement, an Optionee shall be deemed to have ceased to be a Service Provider and an Optionee shall be deemed to have terminated or resigned from employment or consulting arrangement with the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, for the purposes hereof on the Termination Date. If the Optionee shall take a leave of absence ("Leave"), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, also modify or change the vesting of any Options granted to such Optionee to take into account the period of the Leave.

16. Regulatory Authorities Approvals

The Plan shall be subject to the approval, if required, of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading. Any Options granted prior to such approval and after listing on any such stock exchange shall be conditional upon such approval being given and no such Options may be exercised unless such approval, if required, is given.

17. Option Agreements

A written agreement will be entered into between the Corporation and each Optionee to whom an Option is granted hereunder, which agreement will set out the number of Common Shares subject to Option, the exercise price, the vesting dates, circumstances when vesting of Options may be accelerated, the expiry date and any other terms approved by the Committee, all in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. The agreement will be in such form as the Committee may from time to time approve or authorize the officers of the Corporation to enter into and may contain such terms as may be considered necessary in order that the Option will comply with any provisions respecting Options in the income tax or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the person to whom the Option is granted may from time to time be a resident or citizen or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation. Such agreements may also contain such other provisions not inconsistent with the provisions hereof as the Committee may determine.

18. Tax Withholding

The Corporation shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require (as a condition of exercise) an Optionee to remit to the Corporation, the required amount to satisfy, in whole or in part, federal, provincial, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of the Plan, including the grant or exercise of Options granted under the Plan. With respect to required withholding, the Corporation shall have the irrevocable right to (and the Optionee consents to) the Corporation setting off any amounts required to be withheld, in whole or in part, against amounts otherwise owing by the Corporation to such Optionee (whether arising pursuant to the Optionee's relationship as a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or as a result of the Optionee providing services on an ongoing basis to the Corporation or otherwise), or may make such other arrangements satisfactory to the Optionee and the Corporation. In addition, the Corporation may elect, in its sole

C-7

discretion, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by withholding such number of Common Shares as it determines are required to be sold by the Corporation, as trustee, to satisfy the withholding obligation net of selling costs (which costs shall be the responsibility of the Optionee and which shall be and are authorized to be deducted from the proceeds of sale). The Optionee consents to such sale and grants to the Corporation an irrevocable power of attorney to effect the sale of such Common Shares and acknowledges and agrees that the Corporation does not accept responsibility for the price obtained on the sale of such Common Shares. Any reference in this Plan to the issuance of Common Shares or a payment of cash is expressly subject to this Section 18.

19. No Guarantees Regarding Tax Treatment

Optionees (or their beneficiaries) shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to any Option under the Plan, whether arising as a result of the grant or exercise of Options or otherwise. The Corporation and the Committee make no guarantees to any person regarding the tax treatment of an Option or payments made under the Plan and none of the Corporation or any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to an Optionee with respect thereto.

20. Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan

(a) Subject to the restrictions set out in this Section 20(a), the Committee may amend or discontinue the Plan and Options granted thereunder at any time without shareholder approval; provided any amendment to the Plan that requires approval of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading may not be made without approval of such stock exchange. Without the prior approval of the shareholders, and such approval as may be required by the Exchange, the Committee may not:

(i) make any amendment to the Plan to increase the percentage of Common Shares reserved for issuance on exercise of outstanding Options at any time pursuant to Subsection 5(b) hereof;
