On May 31, 2011, the Board of Director of Mistras Group, Inc. (the “Company”) approved changes to the Company’s compensation plan for non-employee directors of the Company. Under the revised plan, which became effective for fiscal year 2012, which began June 1, 2011, non-employee directors receive an annual retainer of $30,000 plus an annual grant of $40,000 of Company common stock. The annual fees for the committee chairs remain the same: $10,000 per year for the Audit Committee chairperson and $7,500 per year for each of the Compensation Committee chairperson and the Corporate Governance Committee chairperson. The $30,000 retainer and committee chair fees are paid quarterly in cash, or at the director’s election, in shares of Company common stock. The stock grant will be made once a year promptly after the annual shareholders meeting.

In connection with the revised plan, the Board of Directors approved the vesting as of June 1, 2011 of all restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors under the plan in fiscal 2011.
