Vote Results - “Say-on-Pay” Vote

With respect to the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of EOG's named executive officers, as disclosed in EOG's definitive proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting, the compensation of EOG's named executive officers was approved by EOG's stockholders by the following vote:


Shares For	% of Shares Voted	Shares Against	Shares Abstaining	Broker Non-Votes

Vote Results - “Say-on-Frequency” Vote

With respect to the non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of holding advisory votes on executive compensation, the votes were as follows:


1 Year	2 Years	3 Years	Shares Abstaining	Broker Non-Votes
494,418,195	312,194	7,591,927	738,050	—

Of the total shares voted, 98.43% voted for a frequency of one year, 0.06% voted for a frequency of two years and 1.51% voted for a frequency of three years. Based on these results and consistent with the Board's previous recommendation to EOG's stockholders in connection with such vote, the Board has determined that, until the next vote on the frequency of holding advisory votes on executive compensation, EOG will hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation every year.

In accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, EOG must hold a vote on the frequency of holding advisory votes on executive compensation (commonly referred to as a “say-on-frequency” vote) at least once every six years; EOG previously held a say-on-frequency vote in connection with its 2011 annual meeting of stockholders and its 2017 annual meeting of stockholders.
