Rhea-AI Filing Summary

NextNRG, Inc. entered into two high-cost secured financings that add significant debt and potential dilution. The company sold a senior secured convertible promissory note to Leviston Resources for $1,552,000 of cash proceeds on a $1,724,444 principal, issued 243,300 common shares, and granted Leviston first-priority security over substantially all assets, broad participation and first-refusal rights on future financings, and conversion rights after default subject to a 19.99% Nasdaq share cap. NextNRG also obtained a $750,000 term loan from Cashera Private Credit with total repayment of $1,050,000 over 24 weekly installments, an approximate APR of 173.06%, secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all assets and personal and subsidiary guarantees, with sizable default fees and restrictive covenants on additional debt.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • High-cost, restrictive debt financing: The Cashera loan requires repayment of $1,050,000 on a $750,000 principal over 24 weeks with an approximate APR of 173.06%, secured by first-priority liens and guarantees, signaling expensive and restrictive financing.
  • Senior secured leverage and dilution pressure: The Leviston note adds $1,724,444 of senior secured debt, 243,300 upfront shares, broad rights over future financings, and discounted default conversion up to a 19.99% Nasdaq share cap, increasing balance-sheet risk and potential equity dilution on default.

Insights

NextNRG adds expensive, highly secured debt with tight covenants.

NextNRG, Inc. raised liquidity through a Leviston convertible note and a Cashera term loan, both secured by substantially all assets. The Leviston note brings $1,724,444 of senior secured principal at 10% interest plus an original issue discount and 243,300 bonus shares.

The Leviston structure concentrates creditor power: first-priority security, participation and first-refusal rights on future financings, a 19.99% share cap under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), and default conversion at a discount to VWAP. Default terms escalate obligations to 150% of the balance and add up to 18% default interest.

The Cashera loan of $750,000 requires repayment of $1,050,000 over 24 weeks, implying an approximate APR of 173.06%, backed by first-priority liens, a personal guarantee from the CEO, and a cross-guarantee from a subsidiary. Restrictive covenants on new debt, stacking fees, and a confession-of-judgment remedy indicate elevated financing stress and could limit future flexibility.

original issue discount financial
"The Leviston Note carries an original issue discount of $172,444."
Original issue discount (OID) is the difference between a debt security’s face value and the lower price at which it is first sold, treated as additional interest that accrues over the life of the instrument. For investors it matters because OID raises the effective yield and changes taxable income and the holding’s cost basis over time — think of buying a $100 voucher for $90 and recognizing the $10 gain as earned interest as the voucher approaches maturity.
senior secured convertible promissory note financial
"a senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1,724,444"
A senior secured convertible promissory note is a formal IOU a company issues that is backed by specific assets (secured), given higher priority for repayment than other debts (senior), and can be exchanged for company shares instead of cash (convertible). For investors this means the loan is safer than unsecured debt because it has collateral and repayment priority, but it also carries the potential for dilution if the lender converts the note into equity — like holding a mortgage-backed IOU that can later be swapped for ownership stakes.
most favored nation financial
"The Company has also granted Leviston “most favored nation” rights for so long as any obligations remain outstanding"

"The Leviston Note contains an equity blocker that prohibits Leviston from converting"
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) regulatory
"would exceed the 19.99% limitation set forth in the Nasdaq Stock Market’s (“Nasdaq”) Listing Rule 5635(d)"
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) is a stock-exchange rule that determines when a company must get shareholder approval before issuing new shares tied to conversions or exercises of existing convertible securities, options or warrants. It matters to investors because it controls potential dilution of their holdings and changes in voting power—think of it like a rule that decides whether a previously agreed‑upon coupon can be redeemed without asking the group again.
confession of judgment regulatory

Leviston SPA

 

On April 1, 2026, NextNRG, Inc. (the “Company”) and Leviston Resources, LLC (“Leviston”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 1, 2026 (the “Leviston SPA”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and Leviston agreed to purchase, a senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1,724,444 (the “Leviston Note”) for a purchase price of $1,552,000. The Leviston Note carries an original issue discount of $172,444. Pursuant to the terms of the Leviston SPA, the Company agreed to issue 243,300   shares of the Company’s common stock to Leviston as additional consideration for the Leviston Note. Such shares were issued on April 1, 2026.

 

Leviston has rollover rights and piggyback registration rights pursuant to the terms of the Leviston SPA. In addition, until the later of (i) October 1, 2027 or (ii) the date that the balance due under the Leviston Note is paid in full, Leviston has a right of participation in, and a right of first refusal regarding, any financing transaction. The Company has also granted Leviston “most favored nation” rights for so long as any obligations remain outstanding under the transaction documents.

 

The Leviston SPA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of this type.

 

The transactions that were the subject of the Leviston SPA closed on April 1, 2026.

 

The foregoing description of the Leviston SPA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Leviston SPA, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.

 

Leviston Note 

 

The Leviston Note bears interest at a rate of 10% and matures on October 1, 2026. Interest is guaranteed for the entirety of the six-month term of the Leviston Note, regardless of any reduction of the principal amount, conversion or prepayment. The Leviston Note is a senior secured obligation of the Company, with first priority over all current and future indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company may close equipment financing, with such financing secured by first priority lien(s) against the equipment being financed and second priority lien(s) (behind Leviston’s security interest) against the Company’s other assets. The Company’s obligations under the Leviston Note are secured pursuant to the terms of the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2026, by and between the Company and Leviston (the “Leviston Security Agreement”).

 

The Leviston Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock only upon and following an Event of Default (as defined in the Leviston Note), at the option of Leviston. Upon an Event of Default, Leviston may convert any portion of the outstanding principal, accrued interest, default interest, and a fixed conversion fee of $1,950 per conversion into common stock. The conversion price will be equal to 80% of the average of the three lowest daily volume-weighted average prices (VWAP) of the common stock during the 15 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, subject to a floor price of $0.10 per share.

 

The Leviston Note contains an equity blocker that prohibits Leviston from converting the Leviston Note if such conversion would result in Leviston and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock; provided, however, that Leviston may elect to increase this limitation to 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, or immediately if Leviston is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

 

 

 

In addition, the Leviston Note contains a hard cap on the number of shares issuable to Leviston at 19.99% of the outstanding shares. Pursuant to the terms of the Leviston Note, the parties agreed that, notwithstanding any other conversion, adjustment or other provision, the Company may not issue a cumulative number of shares of common stock to Leviston and its affiliates pursuant to the Leviston Note and the other transaction documents that would exceed the 19.99% limitation set forth in the Nasdaq Stock Market’s (“Nasdaq”) Listing Rule 5635(d), unless the Company obtains stockholder approval to exceed such threshold in accordance with Nasdaq rules.

 

The Company may prepay the Leviston Note at any time prior to October 1, 2026; provided, however, that (i) if the prepayment date occurs within 60 days of April 1, 2026, the Company must pay Leviston the outstanding principal amount, all guaranteed interest for the full six-month term (regardless of how much of the term has elapsed as of the prepayment date), and any other amounts due under the Leviston Note, with no prepayment premium; and (ii) if the prepayment date occurs after 60 days from April 1, 2026, the Company must pay Leviston 110% multiplied by the sum of (a) the outstanding principal amount, (b) all guaranteed interest for the full six-month term (regardless of how much of the term has elapsed as of the prepayment date), and (c) any other amounts due under the Leviston Note.

 

The Leviston Note contains customary Events of Default, the occurrence of which grant Leviston, among other things, the right to accelerate the entire unpaid balance of the Leviston Note. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Leviston Note provides that, among other things, all outstanding obligations under the Leviston Note and related transaction documents, including principal, accrued interest, monitoring fees, and legal expenses, will automatically increase to 150% of the then-outstanding balance. Additionally, all outstanding obligations will accrue interest at a default rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.

 

On April 1, 2026, the Company issued the Leviston Note in favor of Leviston pursuant to the terms of the Leviston SPA.

 

The foregoing description of the Leviston Note is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Leviston Note, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2.

Pursuant to the terms of the Leviston Security Agreement, the Company granted to Leviston a continuing, first-priority security interest in substantially all of its assets to secure the prompt payment and performance of its obligations under the Leviston Note and related transaction documents. The collateral includes, but is not limited to, the Company’s accounts, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, deposit accounts, and 100% of the equity interests in the Company’s directly owned subsidiaries (the “Pledged Equity”). The Company is subject to negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, prohibit the sale, lease, or encumbrance of the collateral without Leviston’s prior written consent. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Leviston may, among other remedies: (i) accelerate all obligations and take possession of the collateral; (ii) exercise all voting and consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Equity; (iii) appoint a receiver over the Company’s assets; and/or (iv) sell the collateral at public or private sales to satisfy the outstanding debt.

If the Company takes additional debt without prior written consent, the Company will incur a $75,000 stacking fee for each occurrence.

 

Upon an event of default, Cashera may, among other things, (i) accelerate the entire unpaid balance, (ii) charge a default fee equal to 25% of the outstanding balance, (iii) take possession of and sell the collateral, and/or (iv) file a confession of judgment in the State of Utah, allowing for the summary entry of a legal judgment without trial.
