Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on December 4, 2024, the Board of Director (the "Board") of Unusual Machines, Inc. (the "Company") appointed Allan Evans as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. On April 30, 2024, the Board approved the Company entering into a two-year Management Services Agreement (the "Agreement") with 8 Consulting LLC (the "Consultant") for the services of Mr. Evans, whereby the Consultant will cause Mr. Evans to perform his services as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Consultant will be compensated on behalf of Mr. Evans by the Company in connection with his performance of such services. The Agreement allows Mr. Evans to receive favorable tax benefits as a resident of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico who will perform such services in Puerto Rico. Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Evans will perform the duties and responsibilities that are customary for a chief executive officer of a public company that either have revenues similar to the Company on a pro forma basis as reflected in the Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 15, 2024, or if pre-revenues, are an active and on-going business that are performing pre-revenue activities similar to a biotech company which is engaged in active research and/or the overseeing of clinical trials. The Consultant will cause Mr. Evans, as Chief Executive Officer, (i) to undertake primary responsibility for managing all aspects of the Company and overseeing the preparation of all reports, registration statements and other filings required filed by the Company with the SEC and executing the certifications required the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules of the SEC as the principal executive officer of the Company; (ii) attend investor meetings and road shows in connection with the Company's fundraising and investor relations activities; (iii) to report to the Company's Board; (iv) to perform services for such subsidiaries of the Company as may be necessary.

The Consultant will receive a $250,000 fee per year payable in monthly installments. In addition, the Consultant was granted 488,000 fully vested shares of restricted common stock, which Mr. Evans is deemed to beneficially own indirectly. The grant of restricted common stock was made under the Company's 2022 Equity Incentive Plan and is subject to the Consultant executing the Company's standard Restricted Stock Agreement. The shares of restricted common stock are subject to pro rata forfeiture from February 14, 2024 until February 14, 2025, in the event that Mr. Evans is terminated or ends his services to the Company for any reason other than death or disability, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company and Mr. Evans previously entered into an Offer Letter dated November 27, 2023, under which he would serve as the Company's Chief Executive Officer effective as of December 4, 2023. The Agreement terminates and replaces the Offer Letter dated November 27, 2023.
