Letter of Understanding
Dear Mr Levy
I am pleased to confirm the Term Sheet items between SRCO and EzFill (hereafter referred to as the “Company”), in order to carry out the transition (hereafter referred to as the “Transition”).
It is our mutual understanding that the period for the Transition will be completed by December 27th, if not earlier; please see Exhibit C – Transition Schedule covering the markets in scope.
The total amount of the truck purchase is USD 5,345,077 plus applicable tax, which will be paid by Company via ACH to SRCO’s bank account the day prior to the transition date for the respective market to confirm receipt of funds minus the downpayment. Please see Exhibit A – Truck List and Exhibit D – Bill of Sale. Delivery Point is the SCRO yard or parking facility wherein Company takes possession of the trucks. The title to the trucks will be overnighted to the Company’s provided address following receipt of payment.
The leases in and out of scope are identified in Exhibit B – Leases. SRCO will honor a reduction in the assigned yard lease cost for the remaining term of the leases. The deposits, if required by the lessor, will be the responsibility of Company. The period of the lease will run from January 2025 [not including renewals] to the end of the term. The yard leases do not include trailers or portable restrooms.
In regards to employees, SRCO would direct current market employees to the Company website or email to apply for employment.
In regards to fuel supply, SRCO will facilitate introductions to Supply and Terminal contacts.
SRCO will facilitate Company in sustaining Shell Fleet Card transactions with customers that are currently paying through the Shell Fleet Card.
