Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Entry into the first amendment to the second amended and restated exchange agreement
As previously reported on EzFill Holdings, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 16, 2023 and November 8, 2023, the Company, the members of Next Charging LLC (the “Members”) and Michael Farkas, an individual, as the representative of the Members entered into an Exchange Agreement dated August 10, 2023 as amended by the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, dated November 2, 2023 (as so amended the “Original Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from the Members 100% of the membership interests of Next Charging LLC in exchange for the issuance by the Company to the Members of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). Subsequently, Next Charging LLC converted to a corporation organized in the State of Nevada named NextNRG Holding Corp. effective as of March 1, 2024 (the “Conversion”), which Conversion continued the existence of the prior entity in the new corporate form and the prior members of Next Charging LLC remained as shareholders of NextNRG Holding Corp. As reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on June 14, 2024, on June 11, 2024, in order to reflect the Conversion, the Company, all of the shareholders of NextNRG Holding Corp. (the “Shareholders”) and Michael Farkas as the representative of the Shareholders (the “Shareholders’ Representative”) executed a second amended and restated agreement to replace the Original Exchange Agreement in its entirety (the “Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire from the Shareholders 100% of the shareholding of NextNRG Holding Corp. in exchange for the issuance by the Company to the Shareholders of Common Stock.
On July 22, 2024, the Company and the Shareholders’ Representative entered into the first amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement (“First Amendment Agreement”) to add a new section 2.10 to the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement. The new section 2.10 provides that, in the event that the Company at any time prior to the Closing undertakes any forward split of the Common Stock, or any reverse split of the Common Stock, any references to numbers of shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement shall be deemed automatically updated and amended at such time to equitably account therefor. Further, in the event the Company undertakes any forward split of the Common Stock or any reverse split of the Common Stock following the Closing, any references to any of numbers of Exchange Shares as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement shall be deemed similarly automatically adjusted to the extent still applicable, including, without limitation to the numbers of Exchange Shares vesting or being forfeited pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement.
The information set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference and attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. Any terms not defined herein have the same meaning ascribed to them in the First Amendment Agreement.
Promissory Note dated July 22, 2024:
On July 22, 2024, EzFill Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a promissory note (the “July 22 Note”) to NextNRG Holding Corp. (formerly Next Charging, LLC) (“Next”) for the sum of $165,000 (the “Loan”) to be used for the Company’s working capital needs. The July 22 Note has an original issue discount (“OID”) of 10% of the aggregate original principal amount of the Loan. The unpaid principal balance of the July 22 Note has a fixed rate of interest of 8% per annum for the first nine months, after which the July 22 Note will begin to accrue interest on the entire balance at 18% per annum.
Unless the July 22 Note is otherwise accelerated, or extended in accordance with the terms and conditions therein, the balance of the July 22 Note, along with accrued interest, will be due on September 22, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”). The Maturity Date will automatically be extended for 2 month periods, unless Next sends 10 days written notice, prior to the end of any 2 month period, that it does not wish to extend the July 22 Note, at which point the end of the then current 2 month period shall be the Maturity Date.
If the Company defaults on the July 22 Note, (i) the unpaid principal and interest sums, along with all other amounts payable, multiplied by 150% will be immediately due, and (ii) Next will have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, penalties, and all other amounts under the July 22 Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price shall equal the greater of the average VWAP over the ten (10) Trading Day period prior to the conversion date; or $0.70 (the “Floor Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion price shall not exceed the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the date of the July 22 Note.
The Company and Next have agreed that the total cumulative number of common stock issued to Next under this Note, together with all other transaction documents may not exceed the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (“Nasdaq 19.99% Cap”), except that such limitation will not apply following shareholder approval. If the Company is unable to obtain shareholder approval to issue common stock to Next in excess of the Nasdaq 19.99% Cap, then any remaining outstanding balance of this July 22 Note must be repaid in cash at the request of Next.
The Company has agreed to issue 52,000 shares of its common stock to Next (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). The Commitment Fee Shares, when issued, shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Commitment Fee Shares were deemed fully earned as of July 22, 2024.
Michael Farkas is the chief executive officer and the controlling shareholder of Next (the “CEO”). The CEO is also the beneficial owner of approximately 27% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 16, 2023 and on November 8, 2023, the Company, the members of Next (a limited liability company at the time of such filings) and the CEO (the managing member of Next at the time), as an individual and also as the representative of the members of Next, entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from such members of Next 100% of the membership interests of Next in exchange for the issuance by the Company to the members of Next of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company. Additionally and as previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 14, 2024, a second amended and restated exchange agreement to the Exchange Agreement was entered into between the Company, the shareholders of Next and the CEO to reflect the conversion of Next Charging, LLC to NextNRG Holding Corp., a corporation organized in the State of Nevada (the “Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement”). As mentioned in the aforementioned item in this filing, on July 22, 2024, the first amendment to the second amended and restated exchange agreement was entered into between the Company and the CEO as the representative of the shareholders of Next. The first amendment provides that, in the event that the Company at any time prior to the Closing undertakes any forward split of the Common Stock, or any reverse split of the Common Stock, any references to numbers of shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement shall be deemed automatically updated and amended at such time to equitably account therefor. Further, in the event the Company undertakes any forward split of the Common Stock or any reverse split of the Common Stock following the Closing, any references to any of numbers of Exchange Shares as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement shall be deemed similarly automatically adjusted to the extent still applicable, including, without limitation to the numbers of Exchange Shares vesting or being forfeited pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement. Upon occurrence of the Closing, Next will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Closing has not occurred.
The information set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the July 22 Note, which is incorporated herein by reference and attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
To the extent required by this Item 3.02, the information contained in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.03. Material Modification of Rights to Security Holders.
To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 of this report is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03. Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On July 23, 2024, EzFill Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a one-for-two and a half (1-for-2.5) reverse split (the “Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split became effective on July 25, 2024. As a result of the Reverse Split, every 2.5 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock shall have automatically converted into one share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share and began trading on a post-split basis under the Company’s existing trading symbol, “EZFL,” when the market opened on July 25, 2024.
A total of approximately 1.99 million shares of common stock were issued and outstanding immediately after the Reverse Split. No fractional shares will be outstanding following the Reverse Split. Any holder who would have received a fractional share of common stock will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of common stock to round up to the next whole share. The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the Reverse Split is 302314406.
In addition, effective as of the same time as the Reverse Split, proportionate adjustments were made to all then-outstanding options and warrants with respect to the number of shares of common stock subject to such options or warrants and the exercise price thereof.
The above description is a summary of the text of the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On July 23, 2024, the Company announced that it was effecting a reverse split, which would be effective July 25, 2024. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Maturity Date shall automatically be extended for 2 month periods, unless Lender sends 10 days written notice, prior to end of any two month period, that it does not wish to extend the note at which point the end of the then current two month period shall be the Maturity Date.
4. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Except as otherwise specified herein, each payment or prepayment, if any, made under this Note shall be applied to pay late charges, accrued and unpaid interest, principal, and any other fees, costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Note.
5. TENDER OF PAYMENT. Payment on this Note is payable on or before 5:00 p.m. on the due date thereof, at the office of Lender specified above and shall be credited on the date the funds become available, in Lender’s account, in lawful money of the United States.
6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as follows:
6.2. Execution of Loan Documents. This Note has been duly executed and delivered by Borrower. Execution, delivery and performance of this Note will not: (i) violate any contracts previously entered into by Borrower, provision of law, order of any court, agency or other instrumentality of government, or any provision of any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which he is a party or by which he is bound; (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature; and (iii) require any authorization, consent, approval, license, exemption of, or filing or registration with, any court or governmental authority.
6.3. Obligations of Borrower. This Note is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against him in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws or equitable principles relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

There is no action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or by or before any governmental authority, agency or other instrumentality now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or any of its properties or rights which, if adversely determined, would materially impair or affect: (i) Borrower’s right to carry on its business substantially as now conducted (and as now contemplated); (ii) its financial condition; or (iii) its capacity to consummate and perform its obligations under this Note.

6.6. No Untrue Statements. No document, certificate or statement furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein and therein not misleading.

Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the occurrence of any default, Event of Default, adverse litigation or material adverse change in its financial condition.
If an Event of Default occurs, (i) all sums of Principal and Interest and all other amounts payable hereunder multiplied by 150% the then remaining unpaid hereon shall be immediately due and payable, and (ii) The Lender shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, penalties, and all other amounts under this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock.

If the Borrower is unable to obtain Shareholder Approval to issue Common Shares to the Lender in excess of the Nasdaq 19.99% Cap, any remaining outstanding balance of this Note must be repaid in cash at the request of the Lender.

2 |
10.3. Integration. This Note constitutes the sole agreement of the parties with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby and supersede all oral negotiations and prior writings with respect thereto.
10.4. Borrower’s Obligations Absolute. The obligations of Borrower under this Note shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation:
10.4.1. any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of, or addition or supplement to or deletion from, this Note, or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof;
10.4.2. any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument or this Note;
10.4.3. any furnishing of any additional security to the Borrower or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Lender or its assignee; or
10.4.4. any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof.
10.5. No Implied Waiver. Lender shall not be deemed to have modified or waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such modification or waiver is in writing and signed by Lender, and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver in one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a waiver of or bar to such right or remedy in a subsequent event. After any acceleration of, or the entry of any judgment on, this Note, the acceptance by Lender of any payments by or on behalf of Borrower on account of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default or reinstate or be deemed to reinstate the terms of this Note absent an express written agreement duly executed by Lender and Borrower.
10.6. No Usurious Amounts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is the intent of the parties that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay interest hereunder at a rate which is in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law (the “Maximum Rate”). If by the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time required to pay interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest under this Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Rate and the portion of all prior interest payments in excess of the Maximum Rate shall be applied to and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the outstanding principal balance, unless Borrower shall notify Lender, in writing, that Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. Borrower agrees that in determining whether or not any interest payable under this Note exceeds the Maximum Rate, any non-principal payment, including, without limitation, late charges, shall be deemed to the extent permitted by law to be an expense, fee or premium rather than interest.

In lieu of any invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be automatically added hereto a valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.
10.8. Binding Effect. The covenants, conditions, waivers, releases and agreements contained in this Note shall bind, and the benefits thereof shall inure to, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Note cannot be assigned by Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender, and any such assignment or attempted assignment by Borrower shall be void and of no effect with respect to Lender.

Exhibit 99.1
EzFill Holdings, Inc. Announces Reverse Stock Split
MIAMI, FL, July 23, 2024 - EzFill Holdings, Inc. (“EzFill” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: EZFL), a pioneer and emerging leader in the mobile fuel industry, announced that, it will effect a 1 for 2.5 reverse stock split of its common stock. EzFill expects its common stock to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of the commencement of trading on July 25, 2024.
The reverse stock split was approved by the Board of Directors and shareholders of the Company and is being implemented as part of a plan by the Company to regain compliance with the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $2,500,000.
At the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 2.5 shares of EzFill common stock issued and outstanding will be combined into one share of common stock issued and outstanding. This will reduce the Company’s outstanding common stock from approximately 4.97 million shares to approximately 1.99 million shares. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split and instead fractional shares will be rounded up.
Yehuda Levy, EzFill’s Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The reverse split is a necessary step in our efforts to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq market. The visibility and credibility that comes with a Nasdaq listing is an important component in our efforts to enhance shareholder value.”
About EzFill
EzFill is a leader in the fast-growing mobile fuel industry, with the largest market share in its home state of Florida. Its mission is to disrupt the gas station fueling model by providing consumers and businesses with the convenience, safety, and touch-free benefits of on-demand fueling services brought directly to their locations. For commercial and specialty customers, at-site delivery during downtimes enables operators to begin their daily operations with fully fueled vehicles. For more information, visit www.ezfl.com.
With the number of gas stations in the U.S. continuing to decline, corporate giants such as Shell, Exxon, GM, Bridgestone, Enterprise, and Mitsubishi have recognized the increasing shift in consumer behavior and are investing in the fast growing on-demand mobile fueling industry, in companies such as Booster and Yoshi. As the only company to provide fuel delivery in three verticals – consumer, commercial, and specialty including marine and construction equipment, we believe EzFill is well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for convenient and cost-efficient mobile fueling options.
