Exhibit 1.1
CONSULTING AGREEMENT
This consulting agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of February 25, 2025 (the “Effective Date”) between Hudson Global Ventures, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Consultant”) and Wellgistics Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“COMPANY”) (collectively, the “Parties”).
RECITAL
A. WHEREAS, COMPANY deems it to be in its best interest to retain Consultant to render to the COMPANY the services described in this Agreement and any other services as may be agreed upon by the Consultant and the COMPANY; and
B. WHEREAS, the Parties agree, after having a complete understanding of the services desired and the services to be provided, that the COMPANY desires to retain Consultant to provide such assistance through its services for the COMPANY, and Consultant is willing to provide such services to the COMPANY.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, conditions, and covenants herein contained, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Duties and Consultant’s Fee.
(a) Term. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and shall continue through the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective Date (the “Term”).
(b) Duties. The Consultant shall provide the COMPANY with business advisory services, guidance on growth strategies, and networking with its contacts on a non-exclusive basis for general business purposes. The Consultant will comply in all respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations in performing its duties hereunder. The Consultant is not required to work a set number of hours or attend COMPANY’s meetings. The Consultant is in control of their own business opportunities and is permitted to conduct business from locations of the Consultant’s choice. Consultant is responsible for paying all of the Consultant’s costs of doing business, including but not limited to health insurance, dental insurance, workers compensation, off premises liability, and any other expenses, and further is responsible for timely remitting all federal and state withholding taxes, Social Security taxes, Medicare taxes, unemployment taxes, and all other applicable taxes. The Consultant is not now, and shall never become, an affiliate or employee of the COMPANY in any manner.
(c) Consultant’s Fee. In exchange for the Consultant’s services described herein, the COMPANY shall (i) pay $250,000 in cash to Consultant by wire transfer according to instructions provided by the Consultant to the COMPANY and (ii) cause the issuance in restricted book entry form of 52,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the COMPANY’s common stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Common Stock”). Such payment and issuance shall occur on or before the earlier of (i) the date that is four business days following receipt by COMPANY of all proceeds owed to COMPANY in connection with the COMPANY’s initial public offering as described in that certain Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by the COMPANY with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 22, 2024, as amended (Registration No. 333-280945) or (ii) the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective Date. If the COMPANY proposes to file any registration statement covering any of its securities (for sale by the Company, for resale by the holder(s) of such securities, or otherwise) (each a “Registration Statement”), the COMPANY shall at each such time give written notice to Consultant of its intention to do so at least three (3) calendar days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement and of the registration rights granted under this Agreement. Upon the written request of Consultant made within two (2) calendar days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the amount of Shares intended to be disposed of by Consultant), the COMPANY shall, at its sole cost and expense, effect the registration of all Shares which the COMPANY has been so requested to register by Consultant in such Registration Statement by inclusion of such Shares in the Registration Statement, to the extent required to permit the resale and disposition (in accordance with the intended methods of disposition, including but not limited to sales at prevailing market prices) of the Shares by Consultant. In connection with this Agreement and the issuance of the Shares, the COMPANY represents and warrants to Consultant that as of the date hereof the Common Stock is not a “penny stock” as defined in SEC Rule 240.3a51-1 (17 CFR § 240.3a51-1). If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, the Common Stock would be deemed to be a “penny stock” as defined in SEC Rule 240.3a51-1 (the “Trigger Date”), then the remaining Shares held by Consultant as of the Trigger Date (the “Remaining Shares”) shall automatically be deemed cancelled and extinguished in the entirety as of the Trigger Date, and Consultant shall no longer have any rights to such Remaining Shares as of the Trigger Date. The COMPANY shall, on the Trigger Date, provide to the Consultant and the Company’s transfer agent all documentation required by the COMPANY’s transfer agent for the cancellation of the Remaining Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, Consultant shall no longer have any rights to the Remaining Shares as of the Trigger Date.
2. No Obligation. Consultant agrees that it is not an agent of COMPANY and may not bind or obligate COMPANY. Neither COMPANY nor Consultant is obligated to deal exclusively with the other.
3. Status of Consultant. Consultant is an independent contractor and is not and shall not be considered COMPANY’s agent for any purposes whatsoever. Consultant is not granted any right or authority to assume or create any obligations or liability, express or implied, on COMPANY’s behalf, or to negotiate on behalf of or bind COMPANY in any manner whatsoever.
4. Reserved.
(a) Reserved.
(b) Reserved.
5. Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of its provisions is determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions and any partially unenforceable provision to the extent enforceable in any jurisdiction nevertheless shall be binding and enforceable.
6. Binding Agreement. The rights and obligations of COMPANY under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding on, COMPANY and its successors and assigns, and the rights and obligations (other than obligations to perform services) of Consultant under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, Consultant and his heirs, personal and legal representatives, executors, successors and administrators.
7. Notices.

All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to have been received (i) in the case of personal delivery, on the date of such delivery, (ii) in the case of a telecopy, when the party receiving such telecopy shall have confirmed receipt of the communication, (iii) in the case of delivery by nationally-recognized, overnight courier, on the Business Day following dispatch, and (iv) in the case of mailing, on the third Business Day following such mailing. For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or national legal holiday.
8. Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision as to any future violation thereof, or prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted the parties herein are cumulative and the waiver of any single remedy shall not constitute a waiver of such party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances.

Exhibit 99.1
Wellgistics Expands Healthcare Ecosystem with Tollo Health Agreement, Targeting Multi-Billion Dollar GLP-1 and Long COVID Market
February 26, 2025 07:40 ET | Source: Wellgistics Health, Inc.
Tampa, Florida, Feb. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wellgistics Health, Inc. (NASDAQ: WGRX, the “Company”), a holding company for various existing and planned strategic businesses centered around healthcare technology and pharmaceutical services, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Wellgistics LLC, has entered into an agreement with Tollo Health, LLC (“Tollo”) to market Tollo’s emerging proprietary suite of novel medical food products for GLP-1 treatment-related side effects, including muscle loss and Long COVID to pharmacies. Tollo is bringing to market novel, proprietary medical food products to address muscle loss and gut discomfort associated with GLP-1 drug use, and persistent viral infection(s), gut discomfort, sarcopenia, immune dysregulation, cellular senescence, endothelial damage and general nutritional support for patients with Long COVID. Tollo’s first marketed product is Galectovid™, a proprietary medical food for the dietary management of Galectin-1 & 3 associated viral infections. Further details on Galectovid™ are available at www.galectovid.com.
“We are excited to partner with the team at Tollo, who bring in-depth scientific and medical knowledge in both the areas of muscle loss and chronic viral infections”, said Jason Lang, Vice President of Business Development of Wellgistics LLC. “We believe that our expansion into medical foods will directly impact our pharmacy clients and support physicians and the patients they serve. Managing the side effects of GLP-1 drugs and the devastating impacts of Long COVID remains a challenge because there are no approved prescription treatment options currently available. It only makes sense to look at natural products, backed by cutting edge scientific research, with no known side effects, to help manage these conditions. We recognize that sometimes medical foods are the only viable solutions to help our clients improve patient outcomes. We plan to work with Tollo and our clients to generate industry leading data on Tollo’s suite of products and make them broadly available to the pharmacies in our network. We expect this cross-selling strategy to help grow our customer base and position us as the key supplier for healthcare professionals in the GLP-1 and Long COVID markets.”
As part of the agreement, Tollo will assist Wellgistics LLC in preparing materials to market Tollo’s emerging suite of products to Wellgistics LLC’s network of pharmacies by generating healthcare practitioner-tailored content to help them educate client physicians, physician groups and patients on how to optimize patient outcomes by incorporating these select medical foods into patients’ treatment regimens. Medical foods are specialized foods, to be taken under the supervision of a physician, that are for the dietary management of certain health conditions. Wellgistics LLC’s objective of marketing Tollo’s medical foods is to provide patients with the dietary support they need to get the most out of prescription drugs and other treatment modalities used by their physicians to help manage complex chronic conditions.
“Given Wellgistics LLC’s innovative model of getting information directly into the hands of pharmacists and physicians who are treating complex conditions such as GLP-1 side effects and Long COVID, we believe they serve as the ideal partner to help drive adoption in the healthcare practitioner market as we roll out our suite of medical foods in the United States,” said Gerald Commissiong, CEO of Tollo. “We look forward to bringing our natural medical food products to the physicians and patients in Wellgistics LLC’s network that are desperately looking for a solution to address the significant side effects associated with GLP-1 use and the devastating impacts of Long COVID.”
The market for GLP-1 drugs is $46.7 billion according to Polaris Market Research. The primary side effect of GLP-1 drug use is muscle wasting, also known as sarcopenia. The GLP-1 drug market is expected to grow to $322 billion by 2034. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, around 16 million working-age Americans (aged 18 to 65) have Long Covid, which represents lost wages of at least $170 billion annually. Tollo believes that its medical foods represent an immediately available solution, supported by their Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) safety profile, and their efficacy data referenced from independent peer-reviewed studies on the key ingredients (or homologs of Tollo product key ingredients) that have data generated in prospective peer-reviewed human clinical studies demonstrating outcomes on key disease mechanisms.
