Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 2 (this Amendment No. 2) amends the Schedule 13D originally filed on September 27, 2019 (the Original Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on October 18, 2019 (Amendment No. 1), and together with this Amendment No. 2, this Schedule 13D). This Amendment No. 2 relates to the common stock, par value $.0001 (Common Stock) of EVO Transportation & Energy Services, Inc. (EVO or the Issuer). The address of the principal executive office of EVO is 8285 West Lake Pleasant Parkway, Peoria, Arizona 85382.

Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Original Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended by replacing the text contained in Item 5(a) with the following:

(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own, in the aggregate, 8,025,000 shares of Common Stock, issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (as defined below). For a more detailed description of the Warrants, as amended, see Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which descriptions are incorporated by reference herein in response to this Item 5.

As described in Item 6(i) below, the Voting Agreement automatically terminated in connection with Antara Master Fund terminating its right to appoint an individual to the board of directors of Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons do not believe that they may any longer be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Voting Agreement Parties or to be members of a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act with the Shareholders, and as a result, the interest of the Reporting Persons in securities of EVO do not include the 15,305,663 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Voting Agreement Parties as reported in Amendment No. 1.

The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon a total of 15,527,263 shares outstanding as of the date hereof, comprised of 14,287,263 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 4, 2019, in reliance on the Issuers Form 10-Q filing for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2019, plus 1,240,000 shares of Common Stock, issued pursuant to the Equity Issuance (as defined below).

As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons have the following interest in securities of EVO:


Name	Shares of Common Stock		Percentage of Class Represented
Antara Master Fund		7,678,404		33.09	%
Antara Capital		8,025,000		34.07	%
Antara GP		8,025,000		34.07	%
Antara Fund GP		7,678,404		33.09	%
Himanshu Gulati		8,025,000		34.07	%

Himanshu Gulati is deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock owned beneficially by each of the foregoing persons and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Managed Account. Antara Fund GP is deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock owned beneficially by Antara Master Fund. Antara GP and Antara Capital are deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock owned beneficially by Antara Master Fund and the Managed Account.

Additionally, the Incremental Amendment provides that the Issuer shall receive additional cash equity contributions in the aggregate amount of $3,100,000 in immediately available funds in consideration of the issuance of 1,240,000 shares of Common Stock to persons unaffiliated with the Reporting Persons (the Equity Issuance).

(h) Warrants

The New Warrant may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, pursuant to the terms of such warrants, only during the period (x) commencing the date of the Closing and (y) terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 27, 2030, the date that is ten years from the date of the Closing.

Pursuant to the New Warrant, EVO granted to the holder preemptive rights to purchase its pro rata share, determined based on the number of shares held by holder or into which the applicable warrants are exercisable, of capital stock issued by EVO after the issuance date of the New Warrant, subject to certain excepted issuances.

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the New Warrant is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the New Warrant, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
