Re:    Consulting Agreement

Dear Erik:
This letter agreement (this “Agreement”) sets forth the terms and conditions by which you agree to provide consulting services to Intuitive Machines, Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries (individually and/or collectively, as applicable, the “Company”).
1.Transition. Effective January 26, 2024 (“Termination Date”), your employment with the Company will terminate. Effective as of the Termination Date, you hereby resign from any and all positions that you hold with the Company. In connection with such termination, you agree to sign and deliver to the Company a release of claims in substantially the form of Exhibit A (the “Release”) hereto within thirty (30) days following the Termination Date (and not before January 27, 2024).
2.Consulting Term. Effective January 27, 2024, you will be engaged by the Company as an independent contractor - consultant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The term of your engagement under this Agreement will begin on January 27, 2024 and end on March 31, 2024, unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Section 2 (the “Term”). This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon your death or permanent disability. This Agreement may also be terminated by either party upon (i) the other party’s material breach of any provision of this Agreement, and (2) written notice by such party to the breaching party specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the material breach within five (5) days of the first occurrence of such breach.
3.Services. During the Term, you will provide advice and transition assistance to the Company’s successor Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Board of Directors (“Services”) for up to seven (7) hours per week as may be requested by any such party(ies) from time to time. You will report to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. During the Term, you will perform the Services in good faith and in compliance with applicable law, and you will act in the best interests of the Company. You will devote such resources as are necessary to ensure that the Services are performed in a timely and reliable manner. However, you may pursue other employment or engagement during the Term as long as it does not create an actual or potential conflict of interest with a direct competitor or customer of the Company, unreasonably interfere with the performance of the Services, or violate the terms of any post-termination obligations you have to the Company pursuant any agreement between you and the Company, as determined by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
4. Consideration and Taxes. As sole consideration for the Services and the Release, you will receive the following:
a.Stock Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Intuitive Machines, LLC 2021 Unit Option Plan (the “2021 Plan”) and my award agreement thereunder, with respect to my stock options that are outstanding under the 2021 Plan:

i.55,624 unvested stock options shall fully vest on March 31, 2024, rather than June 14, 2024 as provided in my award agreement (“Accelerated Options”), subject to my continued performance of the Services through such vesting date and the terms and conditions of the 2021 Plan and my award agreement. If my Services are terminated for any reason prior to March 31, 2024, the Accelerated Options shall be automatically forfeited on the date of such termination without consideration.

ii.Any other stock options not set forth in (i) above that are unvested on the Termination Date will automatically terminate and be forfeited without consideration, except as otherwise provided with respect to the Accelerated Options.





b.Restricted Stock Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Intuitive Machines, Inc. 2023 Long Term Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2023 Plan”) and my award agreement thereunder, with respect to my restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that are outstanding under the 2023 Plan:

i.137,500 unvested RSUs shall fully vest on March 31, 2024, rather than April 11, 2024, as provided in my award agreement (“Accelerated RSUs”), subject to my continued performance of the Services through such vesting date and the terms and conditions of the 2023 Plan and my award agreement. If my Services are terminated for any reason prior to March 31, 2024, the Accelerated RSUs shall be automatically forfeited on the date of such termination without consideration. Vested RSUs will be settled in accordance with the 2023 Plan and my award agreement.

ii.Any other RSUs not set forth in (i) above that are unvested on the Termination Date will automatically terminate and be forfeited without consideration, except as otherwise provided with respect to the Accelerated RSUs.
