Secondary Payload Rideshare Issues

• Major issues are business, not technical

• Most USG customers hold LV mass margins

• Pricing theories

– Marginal cost

– Cost per kg

– Market

• Contract terms

Moon Express is Pioneering

the Lunar FrontierMoon express is on track for a 2015 MX-1 maiden voyage, conducting a South Pole

mission for a commercial customer, and executing a lunar sample return by 2020

We’re going to the Moon and ready to partner with

NASA for cost effective collaboration

• Moon Express owns the development cost and

risk of our missions and spacecraft

• Independently financed through private equity

• Combining Silicon Valley entrepreneurship

with aerospace best practices

• Expanding team of 30 experienced engineers

• Full payload manifest for MX-1 maiden flight

• Enabling low cost access to the lunar surface

• High performance, mass efficient design

• Scalable architecture with a clear pathway to

delivery of 400kg payloads and sample return

• Flexible launch options
