interpretation, shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all persons claiming benefits under the
Plan and shall be given the maximum possible deference allowed by law. The Board and the
Administrator may consider such factors as it deems relevant, in its sole and absolute discretion,
in making such decisions, determinations and interpretations including, without limitation, the
recommendations or advice of any officer or other employee of the Company and such attorneys,

Article 4. Participation

Article 5. Deferred Stock Units; Equity Grants in Lieu of Cash Board Fees

5.1 Deferred Stock Units. DSUs represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company,
except as otherwise provided for by the Administrator, with each DSU being a bookkeeping entry
representing an amount equivalent to one Share. DSUs may be granted at any time and from time to
time prior to the termination of the Plan to Participants as determined by the Administrator. Each
award of DSUs shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Subject to such terms and conditions as
the Administrator may establish, a DSU may be settled through the delivery of a Share or through
the payment in cash of an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date for which
the amount of such payment is determined, as established by the Administrator.

5.2 Payment of Board Fees in Equity. Subject to such terms and conditions as may be
established from time to time by the Administrator, including without limitation any minimum
standards or requirements for participation established by the Administrator, a Director may
receive Equity Grants in lieu of all or a portion of the cash Board Fees otherwise payable to such
Director each Year (or, if applicable, any portion thereof) for his or her service as a Director.
The number of Shares subject to any Equity Grant made pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be
determined by dividing the amount of Board Fees to be paid or awarded in the form of Equity Grants,
as determined by the Administrator or elected by the Director, by the Fair Market Value of a Share
as of the date such Equity Grant is made. The date on which Equity Grants are made shall be
determined by or pursuant to rules established by the Administrator.

5.3 Settlement of Outstanding DSUs. Subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator
may establish, a Director may elect to have his or her outstanding DSUs granted or credited prior
to 2010 (including any dividend equivalents thereon) in respect of Board Fees treated as Awards for
purposes of this Plan and distributed in Shares.

5.4 Voting Rights. Participants who receive Awards under this Article 5 shall have no voting
rights with respect to Shares of Common Stock or Shares underlying DSUs and dividend equivalents
unless and until such Shares are reflected as issued and outstanding shares on the Company’s stock
ledger.

5.5 Dividend Equivalents. Unless provided otherwise by the Administrator, any DSUs awarded
under this Article 5 and any Shares awarded under this Article 5, the receipt of which is deferred
pursuant to a Deferred Compensation Plan, as well as any dividend equivalent Shares accrued
pursuant to this Section 5.5, shall until paid or distributed to a Participant accrue dividend
equivalent Shares. Dividend equivalent Shares represent the right to receive additional Shares and
shall be credited as of the dividend payment date for Shares. Unless otherwise provided by the
Administrator or, if allowed, elected by a Participant, Shares shall be issued in payment and
satisfaction of dividend equivalents on the date that the Equity Grants as to which such dividend
equivalents accrued are paid or distributed.

5.6 Deferral Opportunity. The Administrator may permit deferrals of awards under this Plan in
accordance with such terms and conditions as it specifies. Any deferral
election shall be made in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in, the Deferred Compensation Plan.

to which they were distributed or whether such dividends or distributions will be paid in cash and
whether such cash payments will be made currently or deferred.

(c) Bookkeeping Entry. A RSU is a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equivalent to one
Share. RSUs represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, except as otherwise
provided for by the Administrator. Subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator may
establish, a RSU may be settled through the delivery of a Share or through the payment in cash of
an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date for which the amount of such
payment is determined, as established by the Administrator.

(d) Voting Rights. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to Shares underlying
RSUs unless and until such Shares are reflected as issued and outstanding shares on the Company’s

whether such dividend equivalents will be paid in cash and whether such cash payments will be made
currently or deferred.

Shares on the date the Stock Option is granted.

(d) Minimum Vesting. No Stock Option shall be exercisable within less than one (1) year from
the date of grant, except upon such separation of service events as specified by the Administrator.

(e) Stock Option Term. The “Term” of each Stock Option granted under the Plan shall not
exceed ten (10) years from the date of its grant.

(f) Stock Option Exercise

(1) Partial Exercise. An exercisable Stock Option may be exercised in whole or in part.
However, a Stock Option shall not be exercisable with respect to fractional Shares and the
Administrator may require, by the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, a partial exercise to
include a minimum number of Shares.

(2) Manner of Exercise. All or a portion of an exercisable Stock Option shall be deemed
exercised upon delivery to the representative of the Company designated for such purpose by the
Administrator all of the following: (i) notice of exercise in such form as the Administrator
authorizes specifying the number of Shares to be purchased by the Participant, (ii) payment or
provision for payment of the exercise price for such number of Shares, (iii) such representations
and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect
compliance with all applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any other
federal, state or foreign securities laws or regulations, and (iv) such other representations and
documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable. Unless
provided otherwise by the Administrator, no Participant shall have any right as a shareholder with
respect to any Shares purchased pursuant to any Stock Option until the registration of Shares in
the name of such person, and no adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary,
whether in cash, securities or other property) or distributions or other rights for which the
record date is prior to the date such Shares are so registered.

(3) Payment of Exercise Price. To the extent authorized by the Administrator, the exercise
price of a Stock Option may be paid in the form of one of more of the following, either through the
terms of the applicable Award Agreement or at the time of exercise of a Stock Option: (i) cash or
certified or cashiers’ check, (ii) Shares that have been held by the Participant for such period of
time as the Administrator may specify, (iii) other property deemed acceptable by the Administrator,
(iv) a reduction in the number of Shares or other property otherwise issuable pursuant to such
Stock Option, or (v) any combination of (i) through (iv).

 

7

 

(g) No Repricing; No Automatic Option Grants (Reloads). Without prior approval of
stockholders, the Administrator may not:

(1) Cancel a previously granted Stock Option in exchange for cash or a replacement Award with
a lower (or no) exercise price;

(2) Provide for any automatic grant of a new Stock Option upon a Participant’s exercise of any
Stock Option granted under the Plan; or

(3) Amend a Stock Option to lower the exercise price, except for adjustments required or
otherwise made under Article 7.2, or take any other action that could constitute a repricing.

Article 7. Shares Subject to the Plan

7.1 Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 7, the aggregate
number of Shares issued pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of 500,000 shares of
Common Stock. The aggregate number of Shares issued under the Plan at any time shall equal the
number of Shares actually issued upon grant or settlement of an Award and pursuant to dividend
equivalents, less any Shares retained or returned to the Company upon cash settlement,
cancellation, expiration or forfeiture of an Award or from dividend equivalents and less any Shares
retained by or delivered to the Company by or on behalf of a Participant (either actually or by
attestation) in payment or satisfaction of any purchase price or tax obligation respecting an
Award. Shares may be issued from authorized but unissued shares or out of shares held in the
Company’s treasury, or both.

7.2 Adjustment and Changes in Shares. If the outstanding securities of the class then subject
to the Plan are increased, decreased or exchanged for or converted into cash, property or a
different number or kind of shares or securities, or if cash, property or shares or securities are
distributed in respect of such outstanding securities, in either case as a result of a
reorganization, reclassification, dividend (other than a regular, periodic cash dividend) or other
distribution, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or the like, then the maximum number and
type of shares or other securities that may be issued under the Plan and that are subject to
outstanding Awards (including awards of Common Stock the receipt of which has been deferred) shall
be appropriately adjusted. The Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion the appropriate
adjustment to be effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and in doing so shall take
into account the provisions of any applicable Award Agreement. In addition, in connection with any
such change in the class of securities then subject to the Plan, the Administrator shall make
equitable adjustments in the number and type of shares or other securities or cash or other
property that may be acquired pursuant to stock options and stock grants theretofore awarded under
the Plan and the exercise price of such stock options or price, if any, of such stock grants;
however no adjustment to an option shall be made in a manner that will be treated under Code
Section 409A as the grant of a new option.

 

8

 

Article 8. Term of the Plan

Unless earlier suspended or terminated by the Board, no Award may be initially awarded after
the tenth anniversary of the date the Plan is approved by the Company’s shareholders.

Article 9. Miscellaneous

9.1 Amendment and Termination. The Board may from time to time amend the Plan; provided,
however, that no amendment may without shareholder approval (a) materially increase the benefits
accruing to participants under the Plan, (b) materially increase the number of shares of Common
Stock which may be issued under the Plan, or (c) materially modify the requirements as to
eligibility for participation in the Plan. In addition, except for an amendment adopted pursuant
to Section 9.6, no amendment or alteration to the Plan shall be made which would in any material
manner adversely affect any Participant’s rights to any Award or Shares theretofore accrued or
granted to him or her hereunder, without the consent of the Participant.

9.2 Compliance with Securities Laws, Listing Requirements, and Other Laws and Obligations.
The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan, (a) until,
in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, all applicable federal and state laws and regulations have
been complied with, (b) if the outstanding Common Stock is at the time listed on any stock
exchange, or quoted on any automated quotation system, until the shares to be delivered have been
listed or authorized to be listed or quoted on such exchange or system upon official notice of
issuance, and (c) until all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of
such shares have been approved by the Company’s counsel. If the sale of Common Stock has not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company may require, as a condition to
the payment of Common Stock, such representations or agreements as counsel for the Company may
consider appropriate to avoid violation of such Act and may require that the certificates
evidencing such Stock bear an appropriate legend restricting transfer. In addition, the Company
may, in its discretion, withhold a portion of the Shares that otherwise would be issued under the
Plan to a Participant or make other such arrangements as it determines appropriate to satisfy
Federal, state and local withholding tax requirements, if any.

9.3 Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding on any
successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or
indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company.

9.4 Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the
State of Delaware without regard to Delaware conflict of laws rules, to the extent not preempted by
federal law, which shall otherwise control.

 

9

 

9.5 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for
any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the
Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had
not been included.

9.6 Compliance with Code Section 409A. To the extent that a benefit under the Plan is subject
to the requirements of Code Section 409A, it is intended that the Plan, as applied to that benefit,
comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, and the Plan shall be so administered and
interpreted. The Administrator may make any changes required to conform the Plan and any option
agreements or other grants with applicable Code provisions and regulations relating to deferral of
compensation under Code Section 409A.

Exhibit 10.1

EXTERRAN HOLDINGS, INC.

AWARD NOTICE

TIME-VESTED STOCK OPTION FOR OFFICERS

Exterran Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to you (the “Participant”) an Incentive Stock
Option to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company under the Amended and Restated Exterran
Holdings, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Plan”). All capitalized terms not
explicitly defined in this Award Notice but defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning
ascribed to them in the Plan.

The material terms of your Award are as follows:

     1. Award. You have been granted an Option (the “Award” or “Option”) to purchase shares of
Common Stock of the Company in the number and at the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) provided
above as the “Grant Price”. To the extent allowable under the law, this Option will be treated as
an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. To the extent any portion of this Option
does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option due to restrictions in the Code, that portion of the
Option will become a Non-Qualified Option.

     2. Qualification as Incentive Stock Option. Neither the Company, its directors, officers,
employees or the Committee, nor any Affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into
existence shall be liable to you or any other person or entity if it is determined for any reason
by the Internal Revenue Service or any court having jurisdiction that the Option does not qualify
for tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. Please see Section
VII (c) of the Plan for specific limitations on incentive stock options and consult your tax
advisor for advice on your specific tax situation.

     3. Grant Date. The grant date of this Award is the “Issue Date” provided above.

     4. Vesting. Your Award is subject to a vesting schedule. A portion of your Award will
automatically vest and become exercisable on each of the dates indicated in the vesting schedule
above (each a “Vesting Date”). However, except as provided in Sections 6 and 7 below, you must be
employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates at all times from the Grant Date up to and
including the applicable Vesting Date for that portion of the Award to vest. Contact Exterran’s
Stock Plan Administrator at (281) 836-7000 with any questions concerning the vesting of your Award.

     5. Term. The Award will continue in effect until the date that is 7 years from the Issue Date
(the “Expiry Date”), subject to earlier termination in accordance with Section 6 of this Award
Notice or the Plan. If not exercised prior to the Expiry Date, the Award will be forfeited.

     6. Termination of Employment. Your Award will either vest or be forfeited upon your
termination, depending on the reason for termination:

     (a) Termination as a Result of Death, Disability or Retirement.

For Incentive Stock Options – Upon a termination of employment as a result of death
or disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), the unvested portion of your
Award will immediately vest in full and become exercisable, and you (or your legal
representative) will be entitled to exercise the Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date
or the expiration of one (1) year after the date of your termination, whichever is the
shorter period. Upon a termination of employment as a result of Retirement, the unvested
portion of your Award will immediately vest in full and become exercisable, and you will be
entitled to exercise the Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the expiration of
three (3) months after the date of your termination, whichever is the shorter period.

 

 

For Non-Qualified Stock Options – Upon a termination of employment as a result of
death, Disability or Retirement, the unvested portion of your Award will immediately vest in
full and become exercisable, and you (or your legal representative) will be entitled to
exercise the vested portion of your Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the
expiration of two (2) years after the date of your termination, whichever is the shorter
period.

     (b) Termination for Cause. Following a termination of employment for Cause, the outstanding
unexercised portion of your Award (whether vested or unvested) will be automatically forfeited on
the date of your termination.

     (c) All Other Terminations. You will be entitled to exercise the vested portion of your Award
at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the expiration of three (3) months after the date of your
termination, whichever is the shorter period. The unvested portion of your Award will be
automatically forfeited on the date of your termination.

     7. Corporate Change. In the event a Corporate Change occurs, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Award Notice, this section will govern the vesting of your Award on and after the
date the Corporate Change is consummated.

If a Corporate Change is consummated prior to the final Vesting Date of your Award, then:

     (a) the portion of your Award that would have vested on the Vesting Date immediately following
the date the Corporate Change is consummated will automatically vest as of the date the Corporate
Change is consummated; and

     (b) the remaining unvested portion of your Award, if any, will continue to be subject to the
original vesting schedule and Vesting Dates;

provided, however, that if your employment with the Company or an Affiliate is terminated on or
after the date a Corporate Change is consummated (i) by the Company without Cause, (ii) by you for
Good Reason (as defined below) or (iii) as a result of your death or Disability, then the unvested
portion of your Award as of such termination date will automatically vest in full and all
restrictions applicable to your Award will cease as of the date of your termination of employment.
If your employment is terminated by the Company with Cause or by you without Good Reason on or
after the date the Corporate Change is consummated, then the unvested portion of your Award will be
automatically forfeited on the date of your termination.

For purposes of this Award Notice, unless otherwise provided in a written agreement between the
Company and you, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any of the following without your express
written consent:

     (i) A reduction of 10% or more of your base salary;

     (ii) Your being required to be based at any other office or location of employment more than
50 miles from your primary office or location of employment immediately prior to the Corporate
Change; or

     (iii) The willful failure by the Company to pay you your compensation when due;

provided, however, unless otherwise provided in a written agreement between the Company and you,
that Good Reason does not exist with respect to a matter unless you give the Company a notice of
termination due to such matter within 20 days of the date such matter first exists. If you fail to
give a notice of termination timely, you shall be deemed to have waived all rights you may have
under this Award Notice with respect to such matter. The Company will have 30 days from the date
of your notice of termination to cure the matter. If the Company cures the matter, your notice of
termination shall be

2

 

deemed rescinded. If the Company fails to cure the matter timely, your employment shall be deemed
to have been terminated by the Company for Good Reason at the end of the 30-day cure period.

     8. Exercise of Award. The exercise of your Option must be accompanied by full payment of the
Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock being acquired by: (i) cash, (ii) a check acceptable
to the Company, (iii) the delivery of a number of already-owned shares of Common Stock having a
Fair Market Value equal to such Exercise Price (provided you have owned such shares of Common Stock
for more than six months), (iv) a “cashless broker exercise” of the Option through any procedures
established or approved by the Compensation Committee with respect thereto, or (v) any combination
of the foregoing approved by the Compensation Committee. No shares of Common Stock will be issued
until the Exercise Price has been paid. An Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable only by you
except in the case of your death or Disability, in which event it can be exercised only by your
legal representatives, executors, successors or beneficiaries.

     9. Stockholder Rights. You will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option until you become the holder of record of such
shares of Common Stock.

     10. Non–Transferability. You cannot sell, transfer, pledge, exchange or otherwise dispose of

EXHIBIT A

Non-Solicitation/Confidentiality Agreement

The greatest assets of Exterran Holdings, Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries
(“Exterran”) are its employees, directors, customers, and confidential information. In
recognition of the increased risk of unfairly losing any of these assets to its competitors,
Exterran has adopted this Exhibit A as its policy, which you accept and agree to by accepting
the Award.

In connection with your acceptance of the Award under the Plan, and in exchange for the
consideration provided thereunder, you agree that you will not, during your employment with, or
service to Exterran, and for one year thereafter, directly or indirectly, for any reason, for
your own account or on behalf of or together with any other person, entity or organization (a)
call on or otherwise solicit any natural person who is employed by Exterran in any capacity with
the purpose or intent of attracting that person from the employ of Exterran, or (b) divert or
attempt to divert from Exterran any business relating to the provision of natural gas
compression equipment and service or oil and natural gas production and processing equipment and
related services without, in either case, the prior written consent of Exterran. As further
consideration for the grant of the Award, you agree that you will not at any time, either while
employed by, or in service to Exterran, or at any time thereafter, make any independent use of,
or disclose to any other person (except as authorized by Exterran) any confidential, nonpublic
and/or proprietary information of Exterran, including, without limitation, information derived
from reports, work in progress, codes, marketing and sales programs, customer lists, records of
customer service requirements, cost summaries, pricing formulae, methods of doing business,
ideas, materials or information prepared or performed for, by or on behalf of Exterran.

If any court determines that any provision of this agreement, or any part thereof, is invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement shall not be affected and shall be given full
effect, without regard to the invalid portions and the court shall have the power to reduce the
duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such
provision shall then be enforceable.

You hereby acknowledge that the Award being granted to you under the Plan is an extraordinary
item of compensation and is not part of, nor in lieu of, your ordinary wages for services you
may render to Exterran.

You understand that this agreement is independent of and does not affect the enforceability of
any other restrictive covenants by which you have agreed to be bound in any other agreement with
Exterran.
