Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 24, 2023, Ecoark Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the "Agreement") with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC ("Ascendiant"), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time, through Ascendiant shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), with offering proceeds of up to $3,500,000.

Sales of the Shares, if any, may be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), including without limitation sales made directly on or through The Nasdaq Capital Market, the trading market for the Company's common stock, on any other existing trading market in the United States for the Company's common stock, to or through a market maker, directly to Ascendiant as principal for its account in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades, or through a combination of any such methods of sale. Ascendiant will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on the Company's behalf all of the Shares requested to be sold by the Company, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, subject to the terms of the Agreement. Under the Agreement, Ascendiant will be entitled to compensation of 3% of the gross proceeds from the sales of the Shares sold under the Agreement. The Company also agreed to reimburse Ascendiant for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed $30,000 as well as up to $2,500 for each quarterly and annual bring-down while the Agreement is ongoing.

The Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 24, 2023 and the accompanying base prospectus which is part of the Company's effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-249532) (the "Registration Statement"). Investors should read the Registration Statement, the base prospectus and the prospectus supplement and all documents incorporated therein by reference.
