Material Changes and Agreements
The Company entered into a promissory note with NextNRG Holding Corp. ("Next") to fund working capital needs. The note matures on June 22, 2024, with automatic two-month extensions unless the lender provides 10 days' written notice to the contrary. A significant acceleration clause exists: if the Company completes a capital raise of at least $3,000,000, the entire outstanding principal and interest become immediately due.
The transaction is subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (19.99% Cap). If shareholder approval is not obtained to issue stock exceeding this cap, the remaining balance must be repaid in cash upon the lender's request.
Outlook, Risks, and Related Party Transactions
Related Party: Michael Farkas, CEO and controlling shareholder of Next, beneficially owns approximately 20% of EzFill's common stock. Next is currently a target for acquisition by EzFill under a pending Exchange Agreement (Closing has not yet occurred).
Risks and Contingencies:
- Default Risk: Default triggers a 50% penalty on the debt balance and allows for equity conversion.
- Liquidity Constraint: The acceleration clause upon a successful capital raise could create immediate cash flow pressure.
- Regulatory Limit: Future equity issuance is constrained by the 19.99% Nasdaq cap unless shareholder approval is secured.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Confirm whether the 52,000 commitment fee shares have been issued and registered.
- Monitor the Company's progress toward the $3,000,000 capital raise threshold that would trigger immediate loan repayment.
- Review the Company's cash position to assess ability to repay the $165,000 principal plus OID and interest by the June 22, 2024 maturity date.
- Check for any subsequent filings regarding shareholder approval for equity issuance exceeding the 19.99% cap.
