Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Limitations on effectiveness of controls and procedures
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls
and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable
assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the
fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls
and procedures relative to their costs.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our management, with the participation of our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the effectiveness
of IPAX’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on such
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that IPAX’s disclosure controls and procedures were
effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Management’s annual report on internal control over financial
reporting
As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). IPAX’s internal control over financial reporting
is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements
for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. IPAX’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies
and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company,
(2) provide reasonable assurance
that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts
and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and
(3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect
on the financial statements.
36
Our management conducted an assessment of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013).” Based on this assessment, our
management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.
Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm
This Annual Report does not include an attestation
report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to an exemption established by the JOBS Act for "emerging growth
companies."
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31,
2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

we agreed to pay Kingstown Capital Management L.P., an affiliate of the Sponsor, $15,000 per month for administrative and support services

services under this arrangement. Additionally, following our IPO, we also reimbursed the Sponsor for services provided by one of the Sponsor’s

these agreements were terminated. See Note 5 in the notes to the audited financial statements in this Annual Report for further information.

No other compensation of any kind, including finder’s
and consulting fees, was paid by IPAX to its Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, for services rendered
prior to or in connection with the completion of the Business Combination. However, these individuals were reimbursed for any out-of-pocket

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table
2022 Salaries
The named executive officers receive a base salary
to compensate them for services rendered to our company. The base salary payable to each named executive officer is intended to provide

2022 Bonuses
Our named executive officers were eligible to
earn discretionary cash bonuses for calendar year 2022, as determined by the Board of Managers of Intuitive Machines OpCo. For 2022, Messrs.
Altemus and Crain were eligible to receive a discretionary annual bonus as determined by the Board of Managers, and Mr. Sallee was
eligible to receive an annual bonus of up to 30% of his base salary. Based on a review of our performance for 2022 and each named executive
officer’s individual performance and contributions to our success, the Board of Managers approved the bonus amounts set forth in
the Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Bonus.”
Equity Compensation
Historical Equity Grants
Prior to the Transactions, we offered awards of
options to purchase non-voting class B membership interests of Intuitive Machines OpCo to eligible service providers, including certain
of our named executive officers, pursuant to the Intuitive Machines, LLC 2021 Unit Option Plan (the “2021 Plan”). In connection
with the consummation of the Transactions, the options were recapitalized into options to purchase Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units.
Following the consummation of the Transactions, awards will not be granted under the 2021 Plan. For additional information about the 2021
Plan, please see the section titled “— 2021 Unit Option Plan ” below.
In 2022 we did not award any stock options pursuant
to the 2021 Plan to any of our named executive officers. Messrs. Altemus and Crain do not hold stock options or any other compensatory
equity awards.
Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan
In connection with the consummation of the Transactions,
we adopted the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan in order to facilitate the grant of cash and equity incentives to directors, employees
(including our named executive officers) and consultants of our company and certain of its affiliates and to enable our company and certain
of its affiliates to obtain and retain services of these individuals, which is essential to our long-term success. We expect to grant
equity-based compensation to our employees, including our named executive officers, and our directors pursuant to the Intuitive Machines
Incentive Plan.
Other Elements of Compensation
Retirement Plans
We currently maintain a 401(k) retirement
savings plan for our employees, including our named executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. Our named executive
officers are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. The Internal Revenue Code
allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions
to the 401(k) plan. Currently, we match contributions made by participants in the 401(k) plan up to a specified percentage of
the employee contributions, and these matching contributions are fully vested as of the date on which the contribution is made. We believe
that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings though our 401(k) plan, and making matching contributions, adds to the
overall desirability of our executive compensation package and further incentivizes our employees, including our named executive officers,
in accordance with our compensation policies.
Employee Benefits and Perquisites
All of our full-time employees, including our
named executive officers, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including:
● medical, dental and vision benefits;
● health savings and flexible spending accounts;
● short-term and long-term disability insurance;
● basic life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance;
● accident and critical illness insurance; and
● term life insurance.
42
We believe the perquisites described above are
necessary and appropriate to provide a competitive compensation package to our named executive officers.
No Tax Gross-Ups
We do not make gross-up payments to cover our
named executive officers’ personal income taxes that may pertain to any of the compensation or perquisites paid or provided by our
company.

of the Transactions and the adoption of the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan, we amended and restated the 2021 Plan to reflect the Transactions
and to provide that, following the consummation of the Transactions, awards may not be granted under the 2021 Plan. The material terms
of the 2021 Plan are summarized below.
Eligibility and Administration
Our employees, directors, consultants and other
service providers are eligible to receive grants of options under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan is administered by our Board of Managers.
Subject to the provisions of the 2021 Plan, the plan administrator has the authority and discretion to take any actions it deems necessary
or advisable for the administration of the 2021 Plan.
44
Limitation on Awards and Units Available
Prior to the Transactions, an aggregate 6,125,000 Units were
authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan; following the Transactions this amount was adjusted to Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units.
If an award (i) expires or terminates without having been exercised in full or (ii) is settled in cash, such expiration, termination
or settlement shall not reduce the number of units that may be issued pursuant to the 2021 Plan. In the event that any units issued
pursuant to an award are forfeited because of the failure to meet a contingency or condition required to vest, such units shall revert
and again become available for issuance under the 2021 Plan.
Awards
The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of awards
of options. The terms and conditions of outstanding options under the 2021 Plan are set forth in award agreements, including any applicable
vesting and payment terms and post-termination exercise limitations. Awards of options provide for the purchase of units, in the future
at an exercise price set on the grant date; following the Transactions, outstanding options were adjusted to cover Intuitive Machines
OpCo Common Units. The exercise price of an option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying units on the grant
date (as adjusted to reflect the Transactions). The term of an option may not be longer than ten years.
Certain Transactions
In the event of certain changes in our capitalization
such as a recapitalization, equity split or reorganization, the plan administrator will make appropriate and proportionate adjustments
to the classes and maximum number of securities subject to the 2021 Plan and to the classes, number of securities and exercise price subject
to outstanding awards. In the event of a corporate transaction, which includes us being a party to a merger or consolidation, or the sale
of substantially all of our assets, the plan administrator has discretion to (i) provide that outstanding awards be continued or
assumed or substituted by the acquiring or surviving entity, (ii) provide for the assignment of any reacquisition or repurchase rights
to the acquiring or surviving entity, (iii) provide that all outstanding awards become fully vested and exercisable at a date prior
to the corporate transaction, with such awards terminating if not exercised at or prior to the effective time of the corporate transaction,
(iv) arrange for the lapse of any reacquisition or repurchase rights with respect to the award, (v) provide for the cancellation
of outstanding awards to the extent not vested or exercised in exchange for such cash consideration, if any, as the Board of Managers,
in its sole discretion may consider appropriate, or (vi) provide for payment in such form as may be determined by the Board of Managers
equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the consideration the holder of the award would have received upon exercise of the award, over
(B) any exercise price payable in connection with such exercise.
Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan
On February 13, 2023, in connection with the consummation
of the Transactions, we adopted the Intuitive Machines, Inc. 2023 Long Term Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Intuitive Machines Incentive
Plan”) under which Intuitive Machines and its affiliates may grant cash and equity incentive awards to its eligible service providers
in order to attract and retain key personnel.
Certain current employees, directors, advisors
or consultants, or prospective employees, directors, or consultants who have accepted offers of employment or consultancy, of Intuitive
Machines or its affiliates, including Intuitive Machines OpCo, are eligible to participate in the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan. The
Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan is administered by a compensation committee of at least two people appointed by the Intuitive Machines
(or, if no such committee has been appointed, the Board), which may delegate its duties and responsibilities to one or more officers of
Intuitive Machines or any affiliate (referred to collectively as the “plan administrator”), subject to the limitations imposed
under the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan and applicable laws. The plan administrator has the authority to take all actions and make
all determinations under the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan, to interpret the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan and award agreements,
and to establish, amend, suspend, or waive any rules and regulation for proper administration of the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan
as it deems necessary or advisable. The plan administrator also has the authority to determine which eligible participants receive awards,
grant awards, and set the terms and conditions of all awards under the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan, including any vesting provisions,
subject to the conditions and limitations in the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan.
We have reserved a total of 12,706,811 shares
of our Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan and the maximum number of shares that may be
issued pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options granted under the Intuitive Machines Incentive Plan is 12,706,811, in each
case, subject to certain adjustments set forth therein. The foregoing share limits under the Intuitive Machines Plan are, in each case,
subject to certain adjustments set forth therein.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial
Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
The following table sets forth beneficial ownership
of our common stock as of March 23, 2023 by:
● each
person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of shares of our common stock;
● each
of our current named executive officers and directors; and
● all current executive officers and directors as a group.
The information below is based on an aggregate of
14,748,598 shares of Class A Common Stock, 10,566 shares of Class B Common Stock and 68,140,188 shares of Class C Common Stock issued
and outstanding as of March 23, 2023. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that
a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security,
including warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. Voting power represents the combined voting power of
shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock owned beneficially by such person. On all matters to be
voted upon, holders of shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock will vote together as a single class
on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are
entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval and holders of Class C Common Stock
are entitled to three votes per share on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval.
Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all
persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the voting securities beneficially owned by them.

ordinary course of its space infrastructure development activities. As such, revenues related to Axiom Space are incurred in the normal
course of business and amounts are settled under normal business terms. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we
generated $1,558,000 and $851,000 in revenue from transactions with Axiom Space, respectively, primarily related to the provision of engineering
services. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were approximately $836,000 and $380,000 of affiliate accounts receivable
related to transactions with Axiom Space, respectively.

As such, expenses incurred in relation to IBX are incurred in the normal course of business and amounts are settled under normal business

management fees. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were $367,000 and $218,000, respectively, of affiliate accounts payable
related to IBX expenses.

On November 12, 2020, KBR, Inc. (“KBR”),
a U.S.-based firm operating in the science, technology and engineering industries, made an initial investment in one of our operating

48
Post-Business Combination Arrangements
In connection with the Business Combination Agreement,
certain agreements were entered into. These agreements include:
Tax Receivable Agreement
In connection with the consummation of the Transactions,
we entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement with Intuitive Machines OpCo and certain members of Intuitive Machines OpCo that will provide
for payment to such members of Intuitive Machines OpCo of 85% of the amount of the tax savings, if any, that we realize (or, under certain
circumstances, are deemed to realize) as a result of:
● existing tax basis in certain assets of Intuitive Machines
OpCo and certain of its direct or indirect subsidiaries that are treated as a partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal, and
applicable state and local, income tax purposes (but excluding any such subsidiary to the extent it is directly or indirectly held by
or through any entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal, and applicable state and local, income tax purposes);
● tax basis adjustments resulting from future redemptions or
exchanges of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units from the Intuitive Machines Members or certain distributions (or deemed distributions)
by Intuitive Machines OpCo (including any such adjustments resulting from certain payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement);
● certain tax benefits we realized as a result of certain U.S.
federal income tax allocations of taxable income or gain away from us and to other members of Intuitive Machines OpCo and deductions
or losses to us and away from other members of Intuitive Machines OpCo, in each case, as a result of the consummation of the Transactions;
and
● tax deductions in respect of portions of certain payments
made by us under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
A&R Operating Agreement
We operate our business through Intuitive Machines
OpCo and its subsidiaries. In connection with the consummation of the Transactions, we amended and restated our limited liability company
agreement by adopting the A&R Operating Agreement. The A&R Operating Agreement (i) permits the issuance and ownership of the equity
of Intuitive Machines OpCo as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement following the consummation of the Transactions and (ii)
admits us as the managing member of Intuitive Machines OpCo. The operations of Intuitive Machines OpCo, and the rights and obligations
of the holders of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, are set forth in the A&R Operating Agreement.
Appointment as Managing Member. Under
the A&R Operating Agreement, we are a member and the managing member of Intuitive Machines OpCo. As the managing member, we are able
to control all of the day-to-day business affairs and decision-making of Intuitive Machines OpCo without the approval of any other
member, unless otherwise stated in the A&R Operating Agreement. As such, we, through our officers and directors, are responsible for
all operational and administrative decisions of Intuitive Machines OpCo and the day-to-day management of Intuitive Machines OpCo’s
business, unless otherwise stated in the A&R Operating Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Operating Agreement, we cannot
be removed as the managing member of Intuitive Machines OpCo by other members.
Compensation. We
are not entitled to compensation for our services as managing member. We are entitled to reimbursement by Intuitive Machines OpCo for
fees and expenses incurred on behalf of Intuitive Machines OpCo, including all expenses associated with the Transactions and maintaining
its corporate existence.
Capitalization. The
A&R Operating Agreement provides for (i) a single class of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units; (ii) a single class of Series A
Preferred Units; and (iii) a single class of Unvested Earn Out Units. All Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units have identical rights
and privileges in all respects, all Series A Preferred Units shall have identical rights and privileges in all respects and
all Unvested Earn Out Units have identical rights and privileges in all respects. Each Common Unit entitles the holder to a
pro rata share of the net profits and net losses and distributions of Intuitive Machines OpCo.
Distributions. The
A&R Operating Agreement requires “Tax Distributions,” as that term is defined in the A&R Operating Agreement, to be
made by Intuitive Machines OpCo to us and to its “Members,” as that term is defined in the A&R Operating Agreement. Tax
Distributions shall be made quarterly to us and each Member based on their allocable share of the taxable income of Intuitive Machines
OpCo and at a tax rate that will be determined by us. The tax rate used to determine tax distributions will apply regardless of the actual
final tax liability of any such member. Tax distributions will also be made only to the extent all distributions from Intuitive Machines
OpCo for the relevant period were otherwise insufficient to enable each member to cover its tax liabilities as calculated in the manner
described above. The A&R Operating Agreement also allows for distributions to be made by Intuitive Machines OpCo to its members on
a pro rata basis out of “distributable cash,” which is the amount of cash that may be distributed by Intuitive Machines OpCo
to its Members in accordance with existing credit agreements.
49
LLC Unit Redemption Right. The
A&R Operating Agreement provides a redemption right to the Members (other than us and our subsidiaries) and option holders (in connection
with the exercise of an Intuitive Machines OpCo Option, as such term is defined in the A&R Operating Agreement), which entitles them
to have their Intuitive Machines Opco Common Units redeemed, in whole or in part, at the election of each such person, for newly-issued
shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-to-one basis or, to the extent there is cash available from a contemporaneous public offering
or private sale of Class A Common Stock by us, cash (in each case, subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in the A&R
Operating Agreement). Alternatively, we may instead authorize a cash payment equal to a volume weighted average market prices of one share
of Class A Common Stock for each unit redeemed (subject to customary adjustments, including for stock splits, stock dividends
and similar events affecting the Class A Common Stock). If we decide to make a cash payment, the Member has the option to rescind
its redemption request within a specified time period. Upon the exercise of the redemption right, the redeeming member will surrender
its units for cancellation. The A&R Operating Agreement requires that we contribute cash or shares of Class A Common Stock
to Intuitive Machines OpCo in exchange for an amount of units that will be issued to us equal to the number of units redeemed from
the Member. Intuitive Machines OpCo will then distribute the cash or shares of Class A Common Stock to such Member to complete the
redemption. In the event of such election by a Member, we may, at our option, effect a direct exchange of cash or Class A Common
Stock for such units in lieu of such a redemption. Whether by redemption or exchange, we are obligated to ensure that at all times
the number of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units that we own equals the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued
by us (subject to certain exceptions for treasury shares and shares underlying certain convertible or exchangeable securities). Shares
of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock, as the case may be, will be cancelled on a one-to-one basis if we, at the election
of a Member, redeem or exchange units of such Member pursuant to the terms of the A&R Operating Agreement.
Issuance of Equity-based Compensation. We
may implement equity compensation plans and any actions taken under such equity compensation plans (such as the grant or exercise of options
to acquire shares of Class A Common Stock), whether taken with respect to or by an employee or other service provider of Intuitive
Machines, Intuitive Machines OpCo or its subsidiaries, in a manner determined by us, in accordance with the initial implementation guidelines
attached to the A&R Operating Agreement, which may be amended from time to time. The Corporation may amend the A&R Operating Agreement
(including the initial implementation guidelines attached thereto) as necessary or advisable in its sole discretion in connection with
the adoption, implementation, modification or termination of an equity compensation plan. In the event of such an amendment, Intuitive
Machines OpCo will provide notice of such amendment to the Members. Intuitive Machines OpCo is expressly authorized to issue units (i) in
accordance with the terms of any equity compensation plans or (ii) in an amount equal to the number of shares of Class A Common
Stock issued pursuant to any such equity compensation plans, without any further act, approval or vote of any Member or any other Persons.
Maintenance of One-to-One Ratios. Our
Certificate of Incorporation and the A&R Operating Agreement requires that we and Intuitive Machines OpCo, respectively, at all times
maintain (i) a one-to-one ratio between the number of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units owned by us, directly or indirectly,
and the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) a one-to-one ratio between the number of Intuitive Machines
OpCo Common Units owned by each Member (other than us and our subsidiaries), directly or indirectly, and the aggregate number
of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock owned by such Member, (iii) a one-to-one ratio between
the number of Series A Preferred Units owned by us, directly or indirectly, and the number of outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, (iv) a one-to-one ratio between the number of common warrants owned by us, directly or indirectly, and the number
of outstanding common warrants and (v) a one-to-one ratio between the number of preferred investor warrants, owned by us, directly
or indirectly, and the number of outstanding preferred investor warrants.
Transfer Restrictions. The
A&R Operating Agreement generally does not permit transfers of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, Series A Preferred
Units and Unvested Earn Out Units by Members, subject to limited exceptions. Any transferee of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common
Units, Series A Preferred Units and Unvested Earn Out Units must execute the A&R Operating Agreement and any other
agreements executed by the holders of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, Series A Preferred Units and Unvested Earn Out Units and
relating to such Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, Series A Preferred Units and Unvested Earn Out Units, as applicable,
in the aggregate.
Dissolution. The
A&R Operating Agreement provides that our decision with the approval of a majority of the equity interests (including, but not limited
to, Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, Series A Preferred Units and Unvested Earn Out Units) then outstanding (excluding
all units held directly or indirectly by us) will be required to voluntarily dissolve Intuitive Machines OpCo. In addition to a voluntary
dissolution, Intuitive Machines OpCo will be dissolved under Section 18-801(4) of the Delaware General Corporate Law (“DGCL”)
because all members withdraw/resign (unless Intuitive Machines OpCo is continued without dissolution pursuant thereto) or pursuant to
Section 18-802 of the DGCL by operation of law, including entry of a decree of judicial dissolution.
Confidentiality. Each
Member (other than us) agrees to hold confidential information in confidence and may not disclose or use such information except as otherwise
authorized separately in writing by us. This obligation excludes information that (i) is, or becomes, generally available to
the public other than as a direct or indirect result of a disclosure by such Member or its affiliates or representatives; (ii) is,
or becomes, available to such Member from a source other than us, Intuitive Machines OpCo or their respective representatives; (iii) is

officer designated by us; or (iv) is or becomes independently developed by such Member or its respective representatives without

Indemnification and Exculpation. The
A&R Operating Agreement provides for indemnification for all expenses, liabilities and losses (including attorneys’ fees, judgments,
fines, excise taxes or penalties) reasonably incurred or suffered by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Member or an affiliate
thereof or is or was serving as manager or a director, officer, employee, advisor, attorney, accountant or other agent or representative
of the manager, the Company Representative (as such term is defined in the A&R Operating Agreement), or a director, manager, officer,
employee, advisor, attorney, accountant or other agent or representative of Intuitive Machines OpCo or is or was serving at the request
of Intuitive Machines OpCo as a manager, officer, director, principal, member, employee, advisor, attorney, accountant or other agent
or representative of another person; provided, however , that no indemnified person shall be indemnified for any expenses,
liabilities and losses suffered that are attributable to such indemnified person’s or its affiliates’ fraud, willful misconduct
or knowing violation of law or for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such indemnified
person or its affiliates contained in the A&R Operating Agreement or in other agreements with Intuitive Machines OpCo.
Amendments. The
A&R Operating Agreement may be amended or modified (including by means of merger, consolidation or other business combination to which
Intuitive Machines OpCo is a party) upon our prior written consent together with the prior written consent of the holders of a majority
of the equity interests (including, but not limited to, Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, Series A Preferred Units and Unvested
Earn Out Units) then outstanding (excluding all units held directly or indirectly by us); provided, that no alteration, modification or
amendment shall be effective until written notice has been provided to the Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to any
of the terms and conditions of the A&R Operating Agreement that expressly require the approval or action of certain persons may be
made without obtaining the consent of the requisite number or specified percentage of such persons who are entitled to approve or take
action on such matter. Additionally, no alteration, modification or amendment may be made to any of the terms and conditions of the A&R
Operating Agreement that would (i) reduce the amounts distributable to a Member in a manner that is not pro rata with respect to
all Members, (ii) modify the limited liability of any Member or increase the liabilities of such Member hereunder, (iii) otherwise
materially and adversely affect a holder of units in a manner materially disproportionate to any other holder of units or remove a right
or privilege granted to a Member (other than amendments, modifications and waivers necessary to implement the provisions permitting substitution
or admission of Members) or (iv) alter or change any rights, preferences or privileges of any units in a manner that is different
or prejudicial relative to any other units in the same class of unit or materially and adversely affect the rights of any Member, in each
case without the prior written consent of such Member or holder of units.
A&R Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the consummation of the Transactions,
we entered into the A&R Registration Rights Agreement by and among, us, the Sponsor, certain shareholders of Intuitive Machines and
the Series A Investors pursuant to which we granted them and their affiliates the right, under certain circumstances and subject to certain
restrictions, to require us to register under the Securities Act certain securities held by such holders, including registration of the
shares of Class A common stock delivered to the Intuitive Machines Members in exchange for Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units.
Policies and Procedures
for Related Person Transactions
Our
Board has adopted a written Related Person Transaction Policy, setting forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or
ratification of related person transactions. Under the policy, our finance department is primarily responsible for developing and implementing
processes and procedures to obtain information regarding related persons with respect to potential related person transactions and then
determining, based on the facts and circumstances, whether such potential related person transactions do, in fact, constitute related
person transactions requiring compliance with the policy. If our finance department determines that a transaction or relationship is a
related person transaction requiring compliance with the policy, our Chief Financial Officer is required to present to the Audit Committee
all relevant facts and circumstances relating to the related person transaction. Our Audit Committee must review the relevant facts and
circumstances of each related person transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained
in arm’s length dealings with an unrelated third party and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction,
take into account the conflicts of interest and corporate opportunity provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and either
approve or disapprove the related person transaction. If advance Audit Committee approval of a related person transaction requiring the
Audit Committee’s approval is not feasible, then the transaction may be preliminarily entered into by management upon prior approval
of the transaction by the chair of the Audit Committee subject to ratification of the transaction by the Audit Committee at the Audit
Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting; provided, that if ratification is not forthcoming, management will make all reasonable
efforts to cancel or annul the transaction. If a transaction was not initially recognized as a related person, then upon such recognition
the transaction will be presented to the Audit Committee for ratification at the Audit Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting;
provided, that if ratification is not forthcoming, management will make all reasonable efforts to cancel or annul the transaction. Our
management will update the Audit Committee as to any material changes to any approved or ratified related person transaction and will
provide a status report at least annually of all then current related person transactions. No director may participate in approval of
a related person transaction for which he or she is a related person.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures
IPAX’s audit committee was formed upon the
consummation of its IPO. As a result, IPAX’s audit committee did not pre-approve all of the foregoing services, although any services
rendered prior to the formation of the audit committee were approved by the IPAX board of directors. Since the formation of IPAX audit
committee, the audit committee has pre-approved all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors,
including the fees and terms thereof (subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which
are approved by the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit).
On
February 13, 2023, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, our audit committee dismissed Marcum LLP, IPAX’s
independent registered public accounting firm prior to consummation of the Transactions, as Intuitive Machines’ independent
registered public accounting firm, and approved the engagement of Grant Thornton LLP as Intuitive Machines’ independent registered
public accounting firm for fiscal 2023, effective immediately following the filing of this Annual Report.
Upon the consummation of the Transactions, our
audit committee has adopted a policy (the “Pre-Approval Policy”) that sets forth the procedures and conditions pursuant to
which audit and non-audit services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor may be pre-approved. The Pre-Approval Policy generally
provides that we will not engage an independent auditor to render any audit, audit-related, tax or permissible non-audit service unless
the service is either (i) explicitly approved by the Audit Committee (“specific pre-approval”) or (ii) entered into pursuant
to the pre-approval policies and procedures described in the Pre-Approval Policy (“general pre-approval”).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Intuitive Machines, Inc. (formerly known as Inflection
Point Acquisition Corp.)
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of
Intuitive Machines, Inc. (formerly known as Inflection Point Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and
2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the
period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial
statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the year ended December 31, 2022 and
for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with
the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks
of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.
Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits
also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS,
PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION AND GOING CONCERN
Intuitive Machines, Inc. (f/k/a Inflection Point
Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”) was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January
27, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses (an “Initial Business Combination”).
Business Prior to the Business Combination
All activity for the period from January 27,
2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022 related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “IPO”)
which is described below, and, subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for an Initial Business Combination and consummating
the Business Combination (described below). The Company generated non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and
cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The Company’s sponsor was Inflection Point
Holdings LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s
IPO was declared effective on September 21, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On September 24, 2021, the Company consummated the
IPO of 30,000,000 units at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Units”), which is discussed in Note 3. Each Unit consisted
of one Class A ordinary share (the “Class A ordinary shares” or “Public Shares”) of the Company, par value $ 0.0001 ,
and one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”) of the Company, with each whole warrant entitling the holder
to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The underwriters had a 45-day option from the
Effective Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters
partially exercised the over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment” and together with the IPO, the “Public Offering”)
and purchased an additional 2,975,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating additional gross proceeds
of $ 29,750,000 , and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,525,000 Units.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 6,250,000 warrants (each an “IPO Private
Placement Warrant”) to the Sponsor, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $ 11.50 per share, at a price
of $ 1.00 per IPO Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $ 6,250,000 , which is described in Note 4.
On October 29, 2021, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor purchased an additional 595,000 warrants
in a private placement (the “Over-Allotment Private Placement Warrants” and together with the IPO Private Placement Warrants,
the “Private Placement Warrants”), generating aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $ 595,000 .
An aggregate of 12 qualified institutional buyers
(“Anchor Investors”) expressed an interest to purchase an aggregate of approximately $ 322.3 million of the Units sold
in the IPO. None of the Anchor Investors expressed an interest in purchasing more than 9.9 % of the Units sold in the IPO. The Anchor
Investors were allocated and purchased a total of 29,540,000 Units or 98.5 % of the Units sold in the IPO. One of the Anchor
Investors, Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP, (“Kingstown 1740”) is an affiliate of the Sponsor, and was allocated and purchased 2,900,000 Units
sold in the IPO.
In addition, subject to each Anchor Investor
purchasing 100 % of the Units allocated to it, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor sold membership interests reflecting
an allocation of Class B ordinary shares, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) to each Anchor Investor,
amounting to an aggregate of 1,625,000 Founder Shares to all Anchor Investors collectively (see Note 6). The Company estimated
the aggregate fair value of these Founder Shares attributable to Anchor Investors to be approximately $ 9.68 million, or $ 5.96 per
share. The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
Topic 5A. Upon the completion of the IPO, offering costs allocated (1) to the Public Shares not subject to possible redemption and the
Public Warrants were charged to additional paid-in capital; (2) to the Public Shares subject to redemption were charged to temporary
equity; and (3) to the over-allotment option were charged to expense.
Transaction costs amounted to $ 26,658,313 consisting
of $ 4,595,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 11,541,250 of deferred underwriting commissions, $ 9,680,125 excess fair value
of founder shares (see Note 5), and $ 841,938 of other offering costs, with $ 23,439 allocated to the over-allotment option,
$ 24,538,134 allocated to the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, and $ 2,096,740 allocated to the Class A ordinary
shares not subject to redemption, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
Following the closing of the IPO on September
24, 2021, $ 300,000,000 ($ 10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the IPO
Private Placement Warrants was deposited into a trust account (the “Trust Account”). Following the closing of the Over-Allotment
on October 29, 2021, an additional $ 29,750,000 ($ 10.00 per Over-Allotment Unit) from the net proceeds from the sale of the
Over-Allotment Units in the Over-Allotment and the sale of the Over-Allotment Private Placement Warrants was deposited into the Trust
Account. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account were invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in
Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions
under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except
with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay taxes, if any, the
proceeds from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were not released from the Trust Account until the earliest
of (i) the completion of an Initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is
unable to complete an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii)
the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s
amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to
allow redemption in connection with an Initial Business Combination or to redeem 100 % of its Public Shares if the Company has not consummated
an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating
to shareholders’ rights or pre-Initial Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become
subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public
shareholders.
The Company’s management had broad discretion
with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially
all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating an Initial Business Combination (less deferred underwriting
commissions). The Company’s Initial Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair
market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held
in trust and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). However, the Company will only complete an Initial Business Combination
if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise
acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Investment Company Act”). There
is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect an Initial Business Combination.
The Company provided holders of Public Shares
(the “Public Shareholders”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of
an Initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve such Initial Business Combination or
(ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of
any Initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders
were entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially $10.00
per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company
to pay its taxes).
The Company had 24 months from the closing of
the IPO to complete an Initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company was unable to
complete an Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company would have (i) ceased all operations except for the
purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeemed the Public Shares,
at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned
on the funds held in the Trust Account (less tax payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number
of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption would have completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders
(including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such
redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate
and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for
claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
The Business Combination
On September 16, 2022, the Company entered
into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Intuitive Machines, LLC, a Texas limited
liability company (“Intuitive Machines” and, subsequent to the Proposed Business Combination, “Intuitive Machines OpCo”),
pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, including the approval of the Business Combination
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by the Company’s shareholders, (1) at the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”) and following the Domestication (as defined below), (a)
the Company will acquire equity securities and become the managing member of Intuitive Machines OpCo and (b) the Company will issue voting
equity securities without economic rights to the existing members of Intuitive Machines prior to the Closing (“Intuitive Machines
Members”), resulting in a combined company organized in an umbrella partnership C corporation (“Up-C”) structure, in
which substantially all of the assets and the business of the combined company will be held by Intuitive Machines OpCo; (2) the Company
will domesticate (the “Domestication”) as a Delaware corporation in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law
(“DGCL”), the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Companies Act”) and the Company’s
amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, (3) Intuitive Machines will change its jurisdiction from Texas to Delaware
(the “Conversion”) and complete a recapitalization (the “Recapitalization”) whereby all outstanding equity securities
of Intuitive Machines will be converted or exchanged into common units, options, and unvested earn out units, as applicable, and (4)
the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and documents related thereto will be consummated (such transactions,
together with the business combination and the Domestication, Conversion, and Recapitalization, the “Proposed Business Combination”).
In connection with the Proposed Business Combination, the Company will be renamed “Intuitive Machines, Inc.” (“New
Intuitive Machines”).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
On February 13, 2023, the Company consummated
the Business Combination and related transactions pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated September 16, 2022,
as further described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 14, 2023.
The Domestication
As a condition to the Business Combination, the
Company changed its jurisdiction of incorporation by effecting a deregistration under Section 206 of the Companies Act and a domestication
under Section 388 of the DGCL, pursuant to which the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation changed from the Cayman Islands
to the State of Delaware. Immediately prior to the Domestication, pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and
articles of association, each Founder Share converted automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a Class A ordinary share. Immediately
following such conversion, in connection with the Domestication, each of the then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares
converted automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into one share of New Intuitive Machines Class A common stock, par value $ 0.0001
per share, each of which carries voting rights of one vote per share (collectively, the “New Intuitive Machines Class A Common
Stock”); (iii) each whole warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share (each warrant, a “Company Warrant”) automatically
represents the right to purchase one share of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock on the same terms as the Company Warrants (each
a “New Intuitive Machines Warrant”) and (c) each of the units of the Company outstanding as of immediately prior to the Domestication
was automatically canceled and each holder became entitled to one share of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock and one-half of
one New Intuitive Machines Warrant, per unit. No fractional New Intuitive Machines Warrants were issued upon such cancellation.
Concurrently with the Domestication and subject
to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, including approval by the Company’s
shareholders, the Company adopted a certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) that, among other things,
implemented a revised class structure with the shares of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock having one vote per share and
economic rights, the shares of Class B common stock of New Intuitive Machines, par value $ 0.0001 per share, having one vote per
share and no economic rights (collectively, the “New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock”) and the shares of Class C
common stock of New Intuitive Machines, par value $ 0.0001 per share, having three votes per share and no economic rights (collectively,
the “New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock” and the New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock, the New
Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock and New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock, collectively, the “New Intuitive
Machines Common Stock”). The Certificate of Incorporation also authorized the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock,
par value $ 0.0001 per share, having such characteristics as the board may, from time to time, provide. The Company’s board of directors
adopted a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of 10 % Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, creating
the Series A Preferred Stock (as defined below).
The Conversion and Recapitalization
In connection with the Business Combination,
Intuitive Machines changed its jurisdiction of organization from Texas to Delaware. Immediately prior to the Closing, Intuitive Machines
effectuated the Recapitalization whereby all outstanding equity securities of Intuitive Machines were converted into common units of
Intuitive Machines OpCo (“Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units”), options to purchase Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units
(“Intuitive Machines OpCo Options”) and unvested earn out units of Intuitive Machines OpCo (“Earn Out Units”).
Consideration and Structure
As a result of the Up-C structure, the business
combination consideration received by Intuitive Machines Members consisted of securities of both Intuitive Machines OpCo having economic
rights but not voting rights and New Intuitive Machines having voting rights but not economic rights equal to a value of approximately
$ 700,000,000 . In particular, the business combination consideration received by the Intuitive Machines Members comprised of an aggregate
of (a) (i) 68,125,987 Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, (ii) 1,874,013 Intuitive Machines OpCo Options and (iii) 10,000,000
Earn Out Units and (b) (i) 278 shares of New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock (excluding 1,874,013 shares
of New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of Intuitive Machines OpCo Options) and (ii) 68,125,709 shares
of New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock (excluding 10,000,000 shares of New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock reserved
for issuance upon vesting of the Earn Out Units).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
The 10,000,000 Earn Out Units received by the
applicable Intuitive Machines Members are subject to vesting and will be earned, released and delivered upon satisfaction of the following
milestones: (i) 2,500,000 Earn Out Units will vest if, during the Earn Out Period (as defined below), Intuitive Machines is awarded the
OMES III Contract by NASA (“Triggering Event I”), (ii) 5,000,000 Earn Out Units will vest if, within the Earn Out Period,
Triggering Event I occurs and the volume weighted average closing sale price of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock equals or
exceeds $15.00 per share (“Triggering Event II-A”), (iii) 7,500,000 Earn Out Units will vest if, within the Earn Out Period,
Triggering Event I has not occurred and the volume weighted average closing sale price of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock
equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (“Triggering Event II-B”), and (iv) 2,500,000 Earn Out Units will vest if, within the
Earn Out Period, Triggering Event III occurs the volume weighted average closing sale price of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common
Stock equals or exceeds $17.50 per share (“Triggering Event III”), provided, that Triggering Event II-A and Triggering Event
II-B may not both be achieved. “Earn Out Period” means (i) with respect to Triggering Event I, the time period beginning
on September 16, 2022 and ending at 11:59 pm ET on December 31, 2023, and (ii) with respect to Triggering Event II-A, Triggering Event
II-B and Triggering Event III, the time period beginning on the date that is 150 days following the date of Closing and ending on the
date that is the five (5) year anniversary of the date of Closing. If a Change of Control (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement)
occurs during the Earn Out Period that results in the holders of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock receiving a per share price
greater than or equal to $15.00 or $17.50, respectively, then immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, to the
extent not previously triggered, then Triggering Event II-A or Triggering Event II-B will be deemed to have occurred, as applicable,
and the applicable Earn Out Units shall vest.
After the expiration of the applicable lock-up
period, holders of certain Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units will be permitted to exchange such Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units
(along with the cancellation of the paired share of New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock or share of New Intuitive Machines Class
C Common Stock) for shares of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis pursuant to the second amended and restated
limited liability company agreement of Intuitive Machines OpCo (the “Second A&R Operating Agreement”) (subject to customary
conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications) or, at the election of New Intuitive Machines (determined
by a majority of the directors of New Intuitive Machines who are disinterested with respect to such determination), cash from a substantially
concurrent public offering or private sale in an amount equal to the net amount, on a per share basis, of cash received as a result of
such public offering or private sale.
Upon the vesting of any Earn Out Units, each
of the applicable Intuitive Machines Members will be issued (i) by Intuitive Machines OpCo an equal number of Intuitive Machines OpCo
Common Units and (ii) by New Intuitive Machines an equal number of shares of New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock, in exchange
for surrender of the applicable Earn Out Units and the payment to New Intuitive Machines of a per-share price equal to the par value
per share of the New Intuitive Machines Class C Common Stock. Upon the exercise of any Intuitive Machines OpCo Option, (i) Intuitive
Machines OpCo will issue to the exercising holder such number of Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units to be received by such exercising
holder as a result of such exercise and (ii) New Intuitive Machines will issue to the exercising holder an equal number of shares of
New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock, in exchange for the payment to New Intuitive Machines of a per-share price equal to the
par value per share of the New Intuitive Machines Class B Common Stock.
The Series A Investment
On September 16, 2022, concurrently with the
execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Series A Purchase Agreement”)
with Kingstown 1740 (an existing security holder of the Company and an affiliate of the Sponsor) and Ghaffarian Enterprises, LLC (an
affiliate of Kamal Ghaffarian, an Intuitive Machines founder) (collectively, the “Series A Investors”), pursuant to which,
and on the terms and subject to the conditions of which, New Intuitive Machines agreed to issue and sell to the Series A Investors (i)
an aggregate of 26,000 shares of 10 % Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Series
A Preferred Stock”) which will be convertible into shares of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock in accordance with the
terms of the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of 10 % Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
(the “Certificate of Designation”) to be adopted by the Company’s board of directors following the Domestication but
prior to the Closing and (ii) warrants to purchase 541,667 shares of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock at an initial exercise
price of $ 15.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Preferred Investor Warrants”).

Tax Receivable Agreement
The Business Combination Agreement contemplates
that, at the Closing, New Intuitive Machines will enter into a tax receivable agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”)
with Intuitive Machines OpCo and certain Intuitive Machines Members (the “TRA Holders”). Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement,
New Intuitive Machines will generally be required to pay the TRA Holders 85 % of the amount of the cash tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal,
state, and local taxes that are based on, or measured with respect to, net income or profits, and any interest related thereto that New
Intuitive Machines (and applicable consolidated, unitary, or combined subsidiaries thereof, if any and collectively the “Tax Group”)
realizes, or is deemed to realize, as a result of certain tax attributes (the “Tax Attributes”), including:
● existing tax basis in certain assets of Intuitive Machines OpCo
and certain of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, including assets that will eventually be subject to depreciation or amortization,
once placed in service;
● tax basis adjustments resulting from taxable exchanges of Intuitive
Machines OpCo Common Units (including any such adjustments resulting from certain payments made by New Intuitive Machines under
the Tax Receivable Agreement) acquired by New Intuitive Machines from a TRA Holder pursuant to the terms of the Second A&R Operating
Agreement;
● certain tax benefits realized by New Intuitive Machines as a
result of certain U.S. federal income tax allocations of taxable income or gain away from New Intuitive Machines and to other members
of Intuitive Machines OpCo and deductions or losses to New Intuitive Machines and away from other members of Intuitive Machines OpCo,
in each case as a result of the Proposed Business Combination; and
● tax deductions in respect of portions of certain payments made
under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
Upon the completion of the Business Combination,
New Intuitive Machines became a party to the Tax Receivable Agreement. Under the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement, New Intuitive
Machines will make payments to the TRA Holders in respect of 85 % of the cash tax savings resulting from the net tax benefit to New Intuitive
Machines of certain Tax Attributes (calculated using certain assumptions, and subject to the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement).
However, until a TRA Holder exchanges at least 5 % of its Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, New Intuitive Machines will hold such
payments applicable to existing basis until the TRA Holder satisfies such threshold exchange. Upon the completion of the Business Combination,
no TRA Holder will have exchanged at least 5 % of its Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units. The tax impacts of the transaction were estimated
based on the applicable law in effect on June 30, 2022.
Future exchanges will result in incremental tax
attributes and potential cash tax savings for New Intuitive Machines. Depending on New Intuitive Machines’ assessment on realizability
of such tax attributes, the arising Tax Receivable Agreement liability will be recorded at the exchange date against equity, or at a
later point through income.
However, if all of the TRA Holders were to exchange
or sell us all of their Intuitive Machines OpCo Common Units, New Intuitive Machines would recognize a deferred tax asset of approximately
$ 169.2 million and a liability under the Tax Receivable Agreement of approximately $ 147.2 million, assuming: (i) all exchanges
or purchases occurred on the same day; (ii) a price of $ 10 per share; (iii) a constant corporate tax rate; (iv) that
New Intuitive Machines will have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the tax benefits; and (v) no material changes in tax
law. These amounts are estimates and have been prepared for illustrative purposes only. The actual amount of deferred tax assets and
related liabilities that New Intuitive Machines will recognize will differ based on, among other things, the timing of the exchanges,
the price per share of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock at the time of the exchange, and the tax rates then in effect
and certain change of control or early termination events occurring.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
If New Intuitive Machines exercises its right
to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement or in the case of a change in control of New Intuitive Machines or a material breach of New
Intuitive Machines’ obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, all obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be
accelerated and New Intuitive Machines will be required to make a payment to the TRA Holders in an amount equal to the present value
of future payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. This payment would be based on certain assumptions, including that New Intuitive
Machines would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the benefits arising from the Tax Attributes subject to the Tax Receivable
Agreement. If New Intuitive Machines were to elect to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement immediately after the Proposed Business
Combination, assuming the market value of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock is equal to $ 10 per share, the Company currently
estimates that it would be required to pay approximately $ 99.7 million to satisfy its total liability.
Equity Facility
On September 16, 2022, the Company entered
into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Cantor Purchase Agreement”), dated September 16, 2022, with CF Principal Investments
LLC (“CFPI”) relating to an equity facility under which shares of newly issued New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock
may be sold to CFPI by New Intuitive Machines. Pursuant to the terms of the Cantor Purchase Agreement, New Intuitive Machines will have
the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at its sole discretion, until the first day of the month following the 18-month period
from and after the Commencement (as defined in the Cantor Purchase Agreement), to direct CFPI to purchase up to the lesser of (i) $ 50 million
of newly issued New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock and (ii) the Exchange Cap, by delivering written notice to CFPI
prior to the commencement of trading on any trading day, subject to certain customary conditions and limitations set forth in the
Cantor Purchase Agreement. In connection with the execution of the Cantor Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 100,000 shares
(the “Commitment Shares”) of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock to CFPI. The Company entered into a registration
rights agreement with CFPI, pursuant to which it agreed to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the shares
of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock that are sold to CFPI under the equity facility and the Commitment Shares.
Sponsor Support Agreement
Concurrently with the execution and delivery
of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor, the Company and Intuitive Machines entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement pursuant
to which the Sponsor agreed to, among other things, vote and approve the Business Combination Agreement and all other documents and transaction
contemplated thereby, and to waive, subject to the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination, any and all anti-dilution rights
with respect to the rate that the Founder Shares convert into Class A ordinary shares in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Business Combination Agreement, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Sponsor Support Agreement. In connection
with the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Company provided the Sponsor with indemnification against certain claims brought against the
Sponsor for a period of six years following the Closing.
Non-Redemption Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Business
Combination Agreement, the Company and Intuitive Machines entered into a non-redemption agreement (the “Non-Redemption Agreement”)
with Kingstown 1740, an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which Kingstown 1740 agreed not to redeem the 2,900,000 Class A ordinary
shares held by it.
For additional information regarding the Business
Combination, see the Company’s Form 8-K/A, dated February 13, 2023 and filed with the SEC on February 15, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $ 14,932
in its operating bank account, and working capital deficiency $ 4,082,477 . On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to provide the Company
with loans in such amounts as may be required by the Company to fund the Company’s working capital requirements up to an aggregate
of $ 250,000 . On March 8, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to provide the Company with loans in such amounts as may be required by the Company
to fund the Company’s working capital requirements up to an aggregate of $ 500,000 .
On August 4, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan
the Company up to $ 1,000,000 to be used for ongoing expenses reasonably related to the business of the Company and the consummation of
an Initial Business Combination pursuant to a convertible promissory note (the “Working Capital Note”).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
All unpaid principal under the Working Capital
Note shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) September 24, 2023 and (ii) the effective date of an Initial Business Combination,
involving the Company and one or more businesses (such earlier date, the “Maturity Date”), unless accelerated upon the occurrence
of an event of default as set forth in the Working Capital Note. The Sponsor will have the option, at any time on or prior to the Maturity
Date, to convert up to $1,000,000 outstanding under the Working Capital Note into warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a conversion
price of $1.00 per warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2022, there was $625,000 outstanding
under the Working Capital Note.
Until the consummation of the Business Combination,
the Company used the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating target businesses, performing due diligence on
prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar location of prospective target businesses or their
representatives or owners, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses and structuring, negotiating
and completing a Business Combination.
Upon the close of the Business Combination, Initiative
Machines received approximately $ 34 million of gross proceeds to fund operations. We believe that the cash available from the consummation
of the Business Combination and related transactions will be sufficient to fund the short-term liquidity needs and the execution of the
business plan through at least the twelve month-period from the date of the Business Combination.
Prior to the Closing of the Business Combination,
holders of 27,481,818 shares of IPAX Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for cash at a price of approximately
$ 10.18 per share for aggregate payments of $ 279,884,314 . We may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations and our business
plan. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining capital sufficient to meet our operating needs on terms or a
timeframe acceptable to us or at all. Further, in the event that market conditions preclude our ability to consummate such a transaction,
we may be required to evaluate additional alternatives in restructuring our business and our capital structure.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russian-Ukraine war on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus
and the war could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target
company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are presented
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”),
and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that
are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public
accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive
compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote
on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
F- 12
INTUITIVE MACHINES, INC. (F/K/A INFLECTION
POINT ACQUISITION CORP.)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts
emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that
is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company
can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but
any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that
when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging
growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make
comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an
emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential
differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during
the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise
significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances
that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near
term due to one or more future confirming events. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available
and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, all of the assets
held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held
in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the
end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these investments are included in interest
earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments
held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times, may exceed the Federal
depository insurance coverage of $ 250,000 . The Company has not experienced losses on this account.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets
and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying
amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature. See Note 8 for further discussion of
the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments
to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic
815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued
at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are
classified in the balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument
could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all
of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital
at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are
required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated
fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The Company has analyzed
the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants and determined they meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC
815 (see Notes 3 and 4).

Net Loss Per Ordinary Share
We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements
of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Our statements of operations includes a presentation of loss per share for ordinary
shares subject to possible redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of loss per share. The remeasurement associated with
the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net loss per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value. The
Company has two classes of shares, Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between
the two classes of shares. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the IPO, the Over-Allotment, the Private
Placement and the Over-Allotment Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 23,332,500 of the Company’s Class A
ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since their exercise is contingent upon the future consummation of
an Initial Business Combination which cannot be assured. As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss
per ordinary share for the periods. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic
and diluted net loss per share for each class of ordinary shares.

Offering Costs associated with the Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of
the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the IPO
that were directly related to the Public Offering. Offering costs associated with the Public Offering amounted to $ 26,658,313 , consisting
of $ 4,595,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 11,541,250 of deferred underwriting commissions, $ 9,680,125 of excess fair
value of founder shares (see Note 5), and $ 841,938 of other offering costs, with $ 23,439 allocated to the over-allotment option,
$ 24,538,134 allocated to the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, and $ 2,096,740 allocated to the Class A ordinary
shares not subject to redemption, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants .
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
31,588,011 Class A ordinary shares sold
as part of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection
with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with an Initial Business Combination
and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. In accordance
with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions
not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The Class A ordinary shares are subject to SEC
and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the
equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period
from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest
redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount
of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value
immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the remeasurement from initial book value
to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in
capital.

Income Taxes
Under ASC 740, “ Income Taxes ,”
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected
to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period of the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and
a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax
return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued
for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review
that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
There is currently no taxation imposed on income
by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with federal income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company,
but rather on the individual owners. United States (“U.S.”) taxation would occur on the individual owners if certain tax
elections are made by U.S. owners and the Company were treated as a passive foreign investment company. Additionally, U.S. taxation could
occur to the Company itself if the Company is engaged in a U.S. trade or business. The Company is not expected to be treated as engaged
in a U.S. trade or business at this time.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other
Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”)
to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial
conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining
to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible
debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings
per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 for emerging growth companies and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective
basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06
would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial
statements.

NOTE 3. PUBLIC OFFERING
On September 24, 2021, the Company sold 30,000,000 Units,
at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit in its IPO. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one
redeemable Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of
$ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment). Each Public Warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of an Initial
Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or
liquidation.
One of the Anchor Investors, Kingstown 1740,
an affiliate of the Sponsor, was allocated and purchased 2,900,000 Units sold in the IPO.
The underwriters had a 45-day option from the
Effective Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters
partially exercised the over-allotment option and purchased an additional 2,975,000 Units, generating aggregate gross proceeds
of $ 29,750,000 , and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,525,000 Units.
The Company provided a discount to the underwriters
at the closing of the IPO of $ 4,000,000 , and an additional discount of $ 595,000 upon the closing of the Over-Allotment. Additionally,
the underwriting agreement states that the Company will pay Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“Citi”) a deferred discount of
$ 0.35 per Unit sold in the Public Offering including pursuant to the Over-Allotment, or an aggregate of $ 11,541,250 (see Note 6), upon
the Company’s completion of an Initial Business Combination, which would be payable from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely
in the event we complete an Initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. On November 27, 2022, in
connection with the proposed Business Combination, Citi agreed to waive its entitlement to the deferred underwriting commission of $ 11,541,250
to which it became entitled upon completion of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, subject to the completion of an Initial Business
Combination. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, fees of $ 0 and $ 11,541,250 (see Note 6) were
recorded as deferred and payable upon the Company’s completion of an Initial Business Combination, respectively.
Warrants — As of
December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 16,487,500 Public Warrants and 6,845,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.
The Company evaluated the terms of the warrants and determined the warrants meet the criteria in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”,
to be classified in shareholders equity upon issuance. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary
share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed herein. The warrants will become exercisable 30 days
after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s
Initial Business Combination at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical
to the Public Warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Warrants may not (including the Class
A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned
or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable,
but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the Initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts
to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement for the Public Offering or a new registration statement
covering the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company
will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and
a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement.
If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth
(60 th ) business day after the closing of the Initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is
an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement,
exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding
the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such
that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at
its option, require holders of warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section
3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration
statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable
blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Class A Ordinary Share
Equals or Exceeds $18.00
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company
may redeem the outstanding warrants:
●
in whole and not in part;
●
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
●
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption
period”); and
●
if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share
(as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within
a 30-trading day period ending three business days before it sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
Additionally, if the number of outstanding Class
A ordinary shares is increased by a share capitalization payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a sub-division of ordinary shares
or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, sub-division or similar event, the number of Class
A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares.
A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at
a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product
of (i) the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold
in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price
per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering
is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for Class A ordinary
shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise
or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the ten
(10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Class A ordinary shares trade on the applicable
exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.
Further, if: (i) the Company issues additional
Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its Initial Business
Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective
issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates,
without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly
Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds
(including from such issuances and the Public Offering), and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Initial Business Combination
on the date of the consummation of the Initial Business Combination (net of redemptions) and (z) the volume weighted average trading
price of the Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company
consummates its Initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise
price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued
Price and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the
Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Company’s Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,250,000 IPO Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per IPO
Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $ 6,250,000 . On October 29, 2021, simultaneously with the closing of the
Over-Allotment, the Sponsor purchased an additional 595,000 Over-Allotment Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per
Over-Allotment Private Placement Warrant, generating aggregate gross proceeds of $ 595,000 .
The Private Placement Warrants are identical
to the Public Warrants included in the Units sold in the Public Offering except that the Private Placement Warrants may not (including
the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred,
assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination. If the Company
does not complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, the Private Placement Warrants will
expire worthless.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On February 3, 2021, the Sponsor paid $ 25,000 ,
or approximately $ 0.003 per share, to cover certain offering and formation costs in consideration for 7,187,500 Founder
Shares. On March 5, 2021, the Company effected a 1.2 to 1 share recapitalization with respect to its Class B ordinary shares, resulting
in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 8,625,000 Founder Shares. Up to 1,125,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture
by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. On October 29, 2021, as
a result of the partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor forfeited 381,250 of these Founder Shares and the
remaining Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers
and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon
conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, or (ii) the
date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the Initial Business Combination
that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities
or other property; except to certain permitted transferees and under certain circumstances (the “lock-up”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted for
share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after the Initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummates a transaction
after the Initial Business Combination which results in the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for
cash, securities or other property, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.
In addition, subject to each Anchor Investor
purchasing 100 % of the Units allocated to it, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor sold membership interests reflecting
an allocation of an aggregate of 1,625,000 Founder Shares to the Anchor Investors collectively. The Company estimated the aggregate
fair value of these Founder Shares attributable to Anchor Investors to be approximately $ 9.68 million, or $ 5.96 per share.
The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
Topic 5A. Upon the completion of the IPO, offering costs allocated (1) to the Public Shares not subject to possible redemption and the
Public Warrants were charged to additional paid-in capital; (2) to the Public Shares subject to redemption were charged to temporary
equity; and (3) to the over-allotment liability were charged to expense.
At the Closing of the Proposed Business Combination,
New Intuitive Machines will enter into a lock-up agreement superseding the lock-up imposed at IPO, pursuant to which the Sponsor and
its permitted assigns will agree not to, without the prior written consent of the New Intuitive Machines board of directors, prior to
the date that is six months after the date of the Closing, (i) sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose
of (a) any shares of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock the Sponsor received upon conversion of its Founder Shares
in connection with the Domestication (the “Sponsor Lock-Up Shares”), (ii) enter into any swap or other transfer
arrangement in respect of the Sponsor Lock-Up Shares or (iii) take any other similar actions (the actions specified in the
foregoing clauses (i) through (iii), collectively, “Transfer”). The Sponsor also will agree to not Transfer any New
Intuitive Machines Warrants received upon conversion of its Private Placement Warrants in connection with the Domestication (or the shares
of New Intuitive Machines Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants), prior to the date that is 30 days
after the date of the Closing. The lock-up agreement will provides for certain permitted transfers, including but not limited to,
transfers to certain affiliates or family members, transfers of shares acquired on the open market after the consummation of the Proposed
Business Combination, subject to certain conditions, or the exercise of certain stock options and warrants.
Redemption Waiver Agreement
In September 2021, the Company entered into a
redemption waiver agreement with one of its Anchor Investors, Kingstown 1740, whereby Kingstown 1740 agreed to waive its redemption rights
on the Non-Redemption Shares, which are 1,386,989 Class A ordinary shares, and these ordinary shares are classified as
shareholders’ equity.

Promissory Note—Related Party
On February 2, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan
the Company up to $ 300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. These loans were non-interest bearing, unsecured
and were due at the earlier of December 31, 2021 or the closing of the IPO. As of September 24, 2021, the Company had borrowed $ 188,805 under
the promissory note, which was fully repaid by September 30, 2021. On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to provide the Company with
loans in such amounts as may be required by the Company to fund the Company’s working capital requirements up to an aggregate of
$ 250,000 , and no amounts have been drawn upon this loan commitment.
Working Capital Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection
with an Initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors
may, but, except as set forth above, are not obligated to, make Working Capital Loans to the Company as may be required on a non-interest
basis. Up to an aggregate of $1,500,000 outstanding under the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants to purchase
Class A ordinary shares at a conversion price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender, with each warrant entitling the holder
to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement
Warrants. If the Company completes an Initial Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans, unless they are
converted into warrants. In the event that an Initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working
capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay
the Working Capital Loans.
On August 4, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan
the Company up to $ 1,000,000 to be used for ongoing expenses reasonably related to the business of the Company and the consummation of
an Initial Business Combination pursuant to the Working Capital Note. The Working Capital Note is non-interest bearing and all unpaid
principal under the Working Capital Note shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless accelerated upon the occurrence
of an event of default as set forth in the Working Capital Note. The Sponsor will have the option, at any time on or prior to the Maturity
Date, to convert up to $1,000,000 outstanding under the Working Capital Note into warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a conversion
price of $1.00 per warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. The conversion feature was analyzed under ASC 470-20, “Debt
with Conversion or Other Options”, and the Working Capital Note did not include any premium or discounts. The conversion option
did not include elements that would require bifurcation under ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging.”
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, $ 625,000 and $ 0 ,
respectively, were outstanding under Working Capital Note.
Administrative Service Fee
On September 21, 2021, the Company entered into
an Administrative Services Agreement with Kingstown Capital Management L.P., an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which it pays a
total of $ 15,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support services provided to members of the
Company’s management team. Upon completion of an Initial Business Combination or a liquidation, the Company will cease paying these
monthly fees. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $ 180,000 of administrative service fees under
the agreement. For the period from January 27, 2021 (date of inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $ 48,000
of administrative service fees under the agreement.
Professional Service Agreement
The Company reimburses its Sponsor for services
provided by one of the Sponsor’s employees who serve as the Company’s Chief of Staff (“COS”). The COS receives
$ 12,500 per month for services rendered, commencing September 25, 2021, through the closing of an Initial Business Combination.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $ 150,000 of compensation for services provided. For the period
from January 27, 2021 (date of inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $ 40,000 of compensation for services
provided.

Related Party Consulting Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the
Company has incurred and paid $ 41,667 of fees to an affiliate of the Sponsor for consulting services related to the business
combination. For the period from January 27, 2021 (date of inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $ 0 to
an affiliate of the Sponsor for consulting services related to the business combination. These fees are reflected as formation and
operational costs on the statements of operations.
Reimbursable Expenses to Related Party
The Company reimburses the Sponsor for certain
expenses paid by the Sponsor on behalf of the Company to consummate a business combination. For the year ended December 31, 2022 and
for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company incurred $ 189,980 and $ 63,678 of reimbursable
expenses and are included in formation and operating costs in the accompanying statements of operations, respectively. As of December
31, 2022 and 2021, there was $ 112,448 and $ 1,032 of reimbursable expenses included in due to related party on the accompanying balance
sheets, respectively.
Forward Purchase Agreement
On September 21, 2021, the Company entered into
a forward purchase agreement (“FPA”) pursuant to which certain affiliates of the Sponsor (“Kingstown”) agreed
to purchase up to 5,000,000 forward purchase Class A ordinary shares (“Forward Purchase Shares”), for $ 10.00 per
share, or an aggregate amount of up to $ 50,000,000 , in a private placement that will close concurrently with the closing of an Initial
Business Combination, subject to approval by the Kingstown investment committee. The proceeds from the sale of these Forward Purchase
Shares, together with the amounts available to the Company from the Trust Account (after giving effect to any redemptions of Public Shares)
and any other equity or debt financing obtained by the Company in connection with an Initial Business Combination, will be used to satisfy
the cash requirements of an Initial Business Combination, including funding the purchase price and paying expenses and retaining specified
amounts to be used by the post-Initial Business Combination company for working capital or other purposes. To the extent that the amounts
available from the Trust Account and other financing are sufficient for such cash requirements, Kingstown may purchase less than 5,000,000 Forward
Purchase Shares. In addition, Kingstown’s commitment under the FPA will be subject to approval of its investment committee prior
to the closing of an Initial Business Combination. Accordingly, if Kingstown’s investment committee does not give its approval,
Kingstown will not be obligated to purchase the Forward Purchase Shares. Further, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion,
to reduce the amount of Forward Purchase Shares that Kingstown may purchase pursuant to the FPA. Pursuant to the terms of the FPA, Kingstown
will have the option to assign its commitment to one of its affiliates. The Forward Purchase Shares will be identical to the Class A
ordinary shares included in the Units sold in the Public Offering, except that they will be subject to transfer restrictions and registration
rights.
The Company evaluated the FPA under ASC 480 and
ASC 815-40 to determine the appropriate accounting treatment. The FPA does not meet the criteria to be classified as a liability under
ASC 480. In addition, there is no net cash settlement feature and settlement will be in gross physical delivery of Class A ordinary shares;
therefore, the FPA should be classified as equity. However, as the issuance of Forward Purchase Shares is contingent on several factors,
including the consummation of an Initial, approval by the Kingstown board of directors, and the Company’s discretion, the Company
will record the FPA when it becomes probable that the triggering events will occur.
On November 30, 2022, the FPA was terminated.
NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration Rights
The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which
were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of the IPO, (ii) Forward Purchase Shares, (iii) Private Placement Warrants
which were issued in private placements simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and the Over-Allotment and the Class A ordinary
shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants and (iv) warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans
and the Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale
of any of the Company’s securities held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation
of an Initial Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. Pursuant
to the registration rights agreement and assuming $1,500,000 of Working Capital Loans are converted into additional warrants, the Company
will be obligated to register up to 21,588,750 Class A ordinary shares and 8,345,000 warrants. The number of Class A ordinary
shares includes (i) 8,243,750 Class A ordinary shares to be issued upon conversion of the Founder Shares, (ii) 5,000,000 Forward
Purchase Shares, (iii) 6,845,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants and (iv) 1,500,000 Class A
ordinary shares underlying the warrants issuable upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. The number of warrants includes 6,845,000
Private Placement Warrants and 1,500,000 additional warrants issuable upon the conversion of Working Capital Loans. The holders
of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities.
In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent
to the Company’s completion of an Initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with
the filing of any such registration statements. The Company evaluated the registration rights agreement in accordance with the guidance
in ASC 825-20 “Registration Payment Arrangements,” ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” and ASC
450 “Contingencies.” The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages, penalty payment, or other cash
settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. As such, there are no accounting implications
that arise due to the registration rights.
At the Closing, the Company, the Sponsor and
certain securityholders of Intuitive Machines entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “A&R
Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor and such securityholders were granted certain
customary registration rights, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein, with respect to securities of New Intuitive Machines
that they will hold following the Business Combination.

Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day
option from the Effective Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any.
On September 24, 2021, the Company paid a cash
underwriting discount of 2.0 % per Unit, or $ 4,000,000 , excluding the proceeds from the purchase of an aggregate of 10,000,000 Units
by certain of our anchor investors. The Company paid an underwriting fee at the closing of the Over-Allotment of $ 595,000 .
The underwriting agreement states that Citi will
be entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 3.5 % of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $ 11,541,250 , held in the
Trust Account upon the completion of an Initial Business Combination, which would be payable from the amounts held in the Trust Account
solely in the event that we complete an Initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
On November 27, 2022, in connection with the
proposed Business Combination, Citi agreed to waive its entitlement to the deferred underwriting commission of $ 11,541,250 to which it
became entitled upon completion of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, subject to the completion of an Initial Business Combination. As
a result, the Company $ 11,541,250 was recorded to additional paid-in capital in relation to the reduction of the deferred underwriter
fee in the accompanying condensed financial statements. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the deferred underwriting fee
payable is $ 0 and $ 11,541,250 , respectively.
Business Combination with Intuitive Machines
As more fully described in Note 1, the Company
entered into a number of agreements as part of its Business Combination with Intuitive Machines. These agreements included but are not
limited to the Business Combination Agreement, the Series A Purchase Agreement, the Cantor Purchase Agreement and Sponsor Purchase Agreement,
each of which contained terms and conditions which commit the Company to certain obligations in the event the Business Combination is
successful.
On February 13, 2023 (the “Closing Date”),
the Company consummated the previously announced business combination and related transactions (the “Transactions”) contemplated
by that certain business combination agreement, dated as of September 16, 2022 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by

each ordinary share. On February 3, 2021, the Sponsor paid $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.003 per share, to cover certain offering
and formation costs in consideration for 7,187,500 Founder Shares. On March 5, 2021, the Company effected a 1.2 to 1 share
recapitalization with respect to its Class B ordinary shares, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 8,625,000 Founder
Shares. Up to 1,125,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the
underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. On October 29, 2021, as a result of the partial exercise of the over-allotment
option, the Sponsor forfeited 381,250 of these shares and the remaining Class B ordinary shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 8,243,750 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Prior to the closing of the Company’s Initial
Business Combination, only holders of the Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on continuing the Company in a jurisdiction
outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution required to amend the constitutional documents of the Company or to adopt
new constitutional documents of the Company, in each case, as a result of the Company approving a transfer by way of continuation in
a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). On all other matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders, holders of
Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class except as required by law.
Unless specified in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, or as required by applicable provisions
of the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of the
Company’s ordinary shares that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by its shareholders.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically
convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the Initial Business Combination
on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and
the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked
securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the Initial Business Combination, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable
upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the total number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding after
such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of Public Shares by Public Shareholders), including the total number of Class
A ordinary shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or
deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination (including the
Forward Purchase Shares), excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class
A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued
to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of working capital loans; provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will
never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.
NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for
its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets
and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.
The fair value of the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale
of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of
observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions
about how market participants would price assets and liabilities).
The following fair value hierarchy is used to
classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market
for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume
to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:
Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted
prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that
are not active.
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use
in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions
that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than
below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.
On February 13, 2023, the Company consummated
the Business Combination pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated September 16, 2022 as further described in the
Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 14, 2023.
Prior to the Company’s extraordinary general
meeting held on February 8, 2023, 27,481,818 holders of IPAX Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem those shares for
cash at a price of approximately $10.1843 per share, for an aggregate of $279,884,314 (the “Redemptions”). As previously
announced, on February 9, 2023, IPAX and Intuitive Machines OpCo entered into separate agreements (each, a “Forward Purchase Agreement”,
and together, the “Forward Purchase Agreements”) with each of Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”) and
The HGC Fund LP (“HGC” and, each of Polar and HGC, individually, a “Seller” and, together, the “Sellers”)
for over-the-counter Equity Prepaid Forward Transactions, pursuant to which each Seller agreed to hold, and waive any redemption rights
with respect to, a maximum of 1,250,000 Cayman Class A Shares in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. Each Seller,
acting separately and solely for its own account, was entitled to (i) reverse its previous election to redeem its Cayman Class A Shares
in connection with the Business Combination or (ii) purchase Cayman Class A Shares through a broker in the open market from holders of
Cayman Class A Shares (other than IPAX), including from holders who had previously elected to redeem their Cayman Class A Shares in connection
with the Business Combination, such that, in the aggregate, such Seller owned up to 1,250,000 Cayman Class A Shares as of the Closing
Date.
