Introductory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 25, 2023, (the “Merger Agreement”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Merger Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2023, by and among Victory Oilfield Tech, Inc. (the “Company”), and Victory H2EG Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) with H2 Energy Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (“H2EG”, and collectively with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Parties”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub agreed to merge with and into H2EG, which survived in the merger and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”)

On January 1, 2024, this previously announced merger was completed. The events described in this Current Report on this Form 8-K took place in connection with the completion of the Merger.

The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were previously described in the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by Victory with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 26, 2023 and December 4, 2023. Also on Schedule 14-F1 filed by Victory with the SEC on December 4, 2023.

The following description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement as amended, which was incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.1 and attached as Exhibit 10.2 to Victory’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2023 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note, Item 2.01, 5.01 and 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

As previously disclosed, Victory planned to raise an additional $4,000,000 within sixteen (16) months after the of the merger through Victory’s preferred equity financing (“Preferred Financing”). In the Preferred Financing, we anticipate issuing a total of 67,796 shares of newly authorized and issued preferred stock which are convertible to 67,796,610 shares of our common stock; provided, however, the parties agreed that the 67,796 shares of preferred stock shall not be converted to common shares until the share authorization increase.

Victory Oilfield Tech, Inc.(the "Company") and Flagstaff International, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Investor") entered into an agreement dated December 28, 2023 and effective on the close of the Merger on January 1, 2024. The agreement was conditioned on the Merger closing by January 5, 2024.

Pursuant to the agreement, the Company shall sell to Investor, and Investor shall purchase from the Company, 67,797 shares of Series E Preferred Stock (the "Purchased Series E Preferred Stock") for an aggregate purchase price of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,0000) (the "Purchase Price"). Investor shall pay the Purchase Price to the Company in sixteen (16) equal monthly installments of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (each a "Purchase Price Installment"), commencing on February 1, 2024. The Company shall issue 4,238 shares of Series E Preferred Stock as each payment is received for the first fifteen (15) monthly installments and 4,227 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock upon receipt of the sixteenth (16th) and final payment. In the event the Investor fails to pay a Purchase Price Installment to the Company on or before the corresponding Purchase Price Installment Payment Date, the Investor shall have five (5) Business Days from the date the Company notifies the Investor of such failure to cure any such failure. If such failure remains uncured for more than fifteen (15) Business Days from the date the Company notifies the Investor of such failure, the Company shall not be obligated to accept any further Purchase Price Installments from the Investor.

This description of the Securities Purchase Agreement, by and among Victory Oilfield Tech, Inc., and Flagstaff International, LLC and the transactions contemplated thereby is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Securities Purchase Agreement, attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.01.

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note, Item 5.01 and 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

On January 1, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Merger Agreement, H2EG was merged with and into Merger Sub, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, and H2EG continues as a surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Victory.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement we entered into on July 25, 2023 and as amended on December 1, 2023, pursuant to which, at the Effective Time, each share of H2EG’s Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, was cancelled and extinguished and converted automatically into the right to receive 418,822,708 shares of Victory’s Common Stock (“Victory Common Stock”), of which: (i) 243,000,000 shares of Victory Common Stock were issued upon the Closing, and; (i) 175,822,708 shares of Victory Common Stock will be issued after an amendment to Victory’s articles of incorporation increasing the Authorization Limit.

The H2EG Stockholders will own 81% of Victory’s issued and outstanding Common Stock immediately upon Closing. As contemplated in the Merger Agreement, VPEG Note holder will convert the VPEG Note at the Effective Time and will receive: (i) 7,866,034 shares of Victory Common Stock, and (ii) 43,095,923 Prefunded Warrants, each with an exercise price of $0.000001, which contain a provision prohibiting the exercise thereof until Victory’s shareholders approve an amendment to the Victory articles of incorporation, increasing the Authorization Limit to a number of shares that is sufficient to allow for the exercise of such Victory Prefunded Warrants in full. In addition, Victory conducted a private placement financing (“Common Financing”), in which Victory raised approximately $1,212,000 from the investors in the Common Financing (the “Common Financing Investors”). Victory also plans to raise an additional $4,000,000 within sixteen (16) months after the Effective Time through Victory’s preferred equity financing (“Preferred Financing”). In the Preferred Financing, we anticipate issuing a total of 67,796 shares of newly authorized and issued preferred stock which are convertible to 67,796,610 shares of our common stock; provided, however, the parties agreed that the 67,796 shares of preferred stock shall not be converted to common shares until the share authorization increase.

Victory has 300,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. In connection with the Merger, the H2EG Stockholders are entitled to receive a total of 418,822,708 shares of common stock, and the VPEG Note holder is entitled to receive a total of 50,961,957. Since our authorized common stock is not sufficient to allow us to issue to the H2EG stockholders all of the common stock that we are required to issue in the Merger along with all of the common stock that we are required to issue to Visionary Private Equity Group I, LP (“VPEG”) upon the conversion of its convertible notes, we will issue common stock up to our authorized amount and then issue prefunded warrants for the balance of what we are required to issue. The prefunded warrants will be fully funded except for $0.000001 exercise price, but the prefunded warrants will not be exercisable unless and until the stockholders of the Surviving Company approve an amendment to the Surviving Company’s articles of incorporation that increases the Surviving Company’s authorized common stock to an amount that is sufficient to allow for all required common stock issuances pursuant to the Merger Agreement and related transactions.

Item 5.01.

Changes in Control of Registrant.

As a result of the Merger, a change in control of Victory has occurred, and H2EG is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Victory.

Following the issuance of shares under the Merger Agreement, the H2EG Stockholders will beneficially own approximately 81% of Victory’s issued and outstanding Common Stock immediately upon Closing.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note, Items 2.01 and 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01.

(B) if the H2 Merger shall not have been consummated by January 5, 2024 (the “Outside Date”).

(iii)

By Investor:

(A) if the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 5.02 and (ii) is incapable of being cured by the Company by the Outside Date (as the same may be extended).

(iv)

By the Company:

(A) if Investor shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 5.03 and (ii) is incapable of being cured by Investor by the Outside Date (as the same may be extended).

(b) Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement by either Investor or the Company as provided in this Section 5.04, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given by the terminating Party to the other Party specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.04, this Agreement shall be terminated and this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of either Party, other than this Section 5.04(b) and Article VIII, which provisions shall survive such termination; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.04 shall relieve any party from liability for any fraud, willful breach of a representation or warranty or willful breach of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

COVENANTS

Section 6.01Affirmative Covenants. Unless the Company has received the prior written consent or waiver of the Investor, the Company shall be subject to each of the following covenants:

(a) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly consummate the H2 Merger prior to the Outside Date.

(b) The Company hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which it is currently listed, and concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall apply to list or quote all of the Conversion Shares on such Trading Market and promptly secure the listing of all of the Conversion Shares on such Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will then include in such application all of the Conversion Shares, and will take such other action as reasonably necessary to cause all of the Conversion Shares to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company

will then take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market. Once the Conversion Shares are eligible to be sold under Rule 144, the Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer. Subject to the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Company further covenants that it will take such further action as Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Purchasers to sell the Securities or shares of Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within and subject to the limitations provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

(c) For a period of not less than two (2) years after the Closing, (a) the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination, and (b) the Company shall retain an investor relations firm, selected by the Company, which systematically prepares and distributes information to potential investors about developments in the Company’s business as part of an active investor relations program.

(d) The Company shall at all times maintain (i) under the Laws of the state of Nevada its valid corporate existence and good standing, (ii) its due license and qualification to do business and good standing in each jurisdiction set forth on Section 3.01 of the Disclosure Schedules and, following the date of this Agreement, each other jurisdiction in which the properties owned or leased by it or the operation of its business makes such licensing or qualification necessary and (iii) all material Permits necessary to the conduct of its businesses.

(e) The Company shall comply with all Laws applicable to it or its business, properties, or assets, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) The Company shall comply with all contractual obligations as such obligations become due to the extent to which the failure to so comply with such other contractual obligations would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, unless and to the extent such obligations are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and adequate reserves (as determined in accordance with GAAP) have been established on its books and financial statements of the Company for such obligations.

(g) The Company shall pay and discharge all Taxes due and owing by the Company before the same becomes delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, unless and to the extent such Taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate procedures and adequate accruals or reserves (as determined in accordance with GAAP) have been established on the books and financial statements of the Company for such Taxes. The Company shall pay when due all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp,

registration, value added, and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (including any real property transfer Tax, and any other similar Tax). Company shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Investor shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

(h) The Company shall pay and discharge all material claims for labor, material, and supplies which, if unpaid and delinquent, would become under applicable Law a Lien upon property of the Company, unless and to the extent such claims are being contested in good faith by appropriate procedures and adequate accruals or reserves (as determined in accordance with GAAP) have been established on the books and financial statements of the Company for such claims.

(i) The Company shall maintain and keep its material properties and assets in good repair, working order, and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

(j) The Company shall maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies (i) property and casualty and other insurance covering risks and hazards of such types and in such amounts as are required by Law or customary for adequately-insured companies of similar size engaged in similar industries and lines of business, and (ii) directors and officers liability insurance on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory in all material respects to Investor.

(k) The Company shall keep adequate books, accounts, and records in accordance with past custom and practice as used in the preparation of the Financial Statements, which books, accounts, and records shall fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

(l) The Company shall (i) own, exclusively or jointly with other Persons, all right, title, and interest in and to, or have a valid license for, and shall maintain all material Intellectual Property necessary to the conduct of its business, free and clear of Encumbrances, (ii) enter into and maintain in full force and effect binding, written agreements with every current and former employee of the Company, and with every current and former independent contractor, whereby such employees and independent contractors (A) assign to the Company any ownership interest and right they may have in the Company Intellectual Property and (B) acknowledge the Company’s exclusive ownership of all Company Intellectual Property, and (iii) remain in full compliance with all legal requirements applicable to the Company Intellectual Property and the Company’s ownership and use thereof.

(m) The Company shall perform and observe all of its obligations and covenants set forth in each of the Transaction Documents.

(n) The Company shall permit, during normal business hours and upon reasonable request and reasonable notice, Investor or any of its representatives, for purposes reasonably related to Investor’s purchase of the Shares, to examine the publicly available, non-confidential records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the properties, assets, operations and business of the Company, and, furthermore, will allow

the Investor to discuss the publicly available, non-confidential affairs, finances and accounts of the Company with any of its officers, consultants, directors, and key employees.

(o) Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall be disclosed pursuant to Section 8.01, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide Investor or any of Investor’s agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes constitutes, material non-public information, unless prior thereto Investor shall have consented to the receipt of such information and agreed with the Company to keep such information confidential. The Company understands and confirms that Investor shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company, the Company shall simultaneously file such material non-public information on with the SEC to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that Investor shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

(p) The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of investor. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Investor at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of Investor.

Section 6.02Board Observer Rights.At all times during which Investor owns at least 4,000 Shares of Series E Preferred Stock or 100,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, Purchaser shall have the right to appoint one observer to the Board of Directors of the Company, and, during all such times, the Company shall allow such observer to attend (or at the option of such observer, monitor by telephone) all meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors and each committee of the Board of Directors (including any executive committee) and shall provide the observer with all reports, meeting materials, notices, written consents and other materials as and when provided to the members of the Company’s Board of Directors; provided, however, that such observer shall not be entitled to vote, or to influence any vote, of the Board of Directors. The Company shall reimburse Investor for the reasonable travel expenses incurred by its appointed observer in connection with attendance at meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors. Section 6.01 (o) shall not apply during and 6 months after any period where this right is exercised.

Section 6.03Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances, and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

MUTUAL INDEMNIFICATION

Section 7.01Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is three years from the Closing Date; provided, that the representations and warranties in (a) Section Section 3.01, Section Section 3.02, Section Section 4.01, and Section Section 4.04 shall survive indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

Section 7.02Indemnification By Company. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article ARTICLE VII, the Company shall indemnify and defend each of Investor and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Investor Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses, as limited herein, incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Investor Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

Section 7.03

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement;

(c) Provided, however, that only the pre-H2 Merger Company shall be responsible for any indemnification in connection with Section 7.03(a) herein and any indemnification in connection with any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by the Company that occurs prior to the closing of the H2 Merger. After the closing of the H2 Merger, the Company shall not be responsible for any indemnification in connection with Section 7.03(a) herein and the Company shall only be responsible for any indemnification for (b) any breach or non- fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by the Company after the closing of the H2 Merger.

Section 7.04Certain Limitations.

(a) The Company shall not be liable to the Investor Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 3(a), other than with respect to a claim for indemnification based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in Section Section 3.01, Section Section 3.02, (the “Investor Basket Exclusions”), until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of

indemnification under Section Section 7.03(a) (other than those based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of the Investor Basket Exclusions) exceeds $10,000, in which event the Company shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses from the first dollar.

(b) For purposes of this Article ARTICLE VII, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect, or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

Section 7.05Indemnification By Investor. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article ARTICLE VII, the Investor shall indemnify and defend each of the Company and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses, as limited herein, incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Company Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

Section 7.06Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Company, the Investor (as applicable) or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article ARTICLE VII, the Company or the Investor (as applicable) shall satisfy its obligations within 15 Business Days of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should the Company or the Investor (as applicable) not make full payment of any such obligations within such 15 Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Company, Investor or final, non-appealable adjudication to the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to 5%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

Section 7.07Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 7.09. Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section Section 8.12, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity, or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article ARTICLE VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims, and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates, and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article ARTICLE VII. Nothing in this Section Section 7.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraudulent, criminal, or intentional misconduct.
