Dividend Policy
We have no current plans to pay dividends on our
Class A Common Stock. Holders of our Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock do not have any right to receive dividends,
or to receive a distribution upon a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Intuitive Machines, Inc., with respect to their Class B
Common Stock or Class C Common Stock. Our Series A Preferred Stock pays dividends, semi-annually at the rate of 10% of the original
price per share, plus the amount of previously accrued, but unpaid dividends, compounded semi-annually, and participates with the Class A
Common Stock on all other dividends. Accrued dividends may be paid (i) in cash, (ii) subject to satisfaction of certain equity
conditions, in shares of Class A Common Stock or (iii) accumulated, compounded and added to the liquidation preference. The
declaration, amount, and payment of any future dividends on shares of Class A Common Stock is at the sole discretion of our Board,
and we may reduce or discontinue entirely the payment of such dividends at any time. Our Board may take into account general and economic
conditions, our financial condition and operating results, our available cash and current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements,
contractual, legal, tax, and regulatory restrictions and implications on the payment of dividends by us to our stockholders or by our
subsidiaries to us, and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant.
We are a holding company and have no material
assets other than our ownership of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units. The A&R Operating Agreement provides that certain distributions
to cover the taxes of the holders of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units will be made based upon assumed tax rates and other assumptions
provided in the A&R Operating Agreement. See Part III. Item 13. “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence — A&R Operating Agreement . ” The manager of Intuitive Machines OpCo has broad discretion
to make distributions out of Intuitive Machines OpCo. In the event we declare any cash dividend, we expect that Intuitive Machines, Inc.,
as the manager of Intuitive Machines OpCo, would cause Intuitive Machines OpCo to make distributions to us in an amount sufficient to
cover such cash dividends declared by us. If Intuitive Machines OpCo makes such distributions to us, the other holders of Intuitive Machines
OpCo Common Units will also be entitled to receive the respective equivalent pro rata distributions in accordance with the percentages
of their respective Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units.
We anticipate that cash received by Intuitive
Machines OpCo may, in certain periods, exceed its liabilities, including tax liabilities, and obligations to make payments under the Tax
Receivable Agreement. We expect that we may use any such excess cash from time to time to pay dividends, which may include special dividends,
on the Class A Common Stock, to fund repurchases of its Class A Common Stock, or any combination of the foregoing. Our Board,
in its sole discretion, will make any determination with respect to the use of any such excess cash.
We also expect, if necessary, to undertake ameliorative
actions, which may include pro rata or non-pro rata reclassifications, combinations, subdivisions, or adjustments of outstanding Intuitive
Machines OpCo Common Units, or to declare a stock dividend on our Class A Common Stock of an aggregate number of additional newly
issued shares that corresponds to the number of additional Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units that Intuitive Machines, Inc. is
acquiring , to maintain one-to-one parity between Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units and shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B
Common Stock and Class C Common Stock.
Any financing arrangements that we enter into
in the future may include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to pay dividends. In addition, Intuitive Machines OpCo is generally
prohibited under Delaware law from making a distribution to a member to the extent that, at the time of the distribution, after giving
effect to the distribution, liabilities of Intuitive Machines OpCo (with certain exceptions) exceed the fair value of its assets.
Since its formation in January 27, 2021,
Intuitive Machines, Inc. has not paid any dividends to holders of its outstanding common stock.
