**Explanatory Note**

IonQ, Inc. (the "<u>Company</u>") is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 4, 2025 (the "<u>Original Report</u>") solely for the purpose of disclosing the material terms of the separation agreement and release of claims that the Company entered into with Thomas Kramer, the Company's former Chief Financial Officer, on December 2, 2025. Other than as set forth in this Explanatory Note, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend any other disclosures in the Original Report.

## Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
*Kramer Separation*

As a result of his departure, Mr. Kramer will qualify for certain benefits under the Company's Amended and Restated Executive Severance Plan (the "<u>Executive Severance Plan</u>") and his performance-based restricted stock unit ("<u>PSU</u>") award agreement (the "<u>PSU Award Agreement</u>"). Accordingly, on December 2, 2025, the Company and Mr. Kramer entered into a Separation Agreement (the "<u>Kramer Separation Agreement</u>") including a release of claims in favor of the Company and, as such, he will be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Cash Severance**: A gross cash payment, less applicable withholdings and deductions, equal to (i) nine months of base salary, (ii) 100% of his 2025 annual target bonus and (iii) a portion of his 2025 annual target bonus, pro-rated to the number of days worked as an employee in 2025, which gross payment will be made in a lump sum within 30 days after the release of claims becomes effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**COBRA Benefits**: If Mr. Kramer elects to receive continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, the Company will pay the applicable premiums for him for up to nine months following the termination of his coverage as an employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Equity Vesting**: All of Mr. Kramer's unvested restricted stock units will accelerate and become vested in full, certain unvested stock options held by Mr. Kramer will accelerate and become vested in full, with any unvested stock options being forfeited for no consideration, and his PSUs will vest, based on target performance, prorated for the portion of the performance period during which he provided services to the Company.

The foregoing summary of Mr. Kramer's severance entitlements is not a complete discussion of those terms and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Executive Severance Plan and the PSU Award Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.9 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and are incorporated herein by reference.
