Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 27, 2022, Takung Art Co., Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") entered into certain securities purchase agreement (the "SPA") with certain "non-U.S. Persons" (the "Purchasers") as defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 15,789,474 units, each consisting of one share of the common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") and a warrant to purchase two shares of Common Stock. The purchase price of each Unit is $1.9. The gross proceeds to the Company from this offering will be approximately $30 million.

The issuance and sale of the Units is exempted from the registration requirement of the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation S promulgated thereunder.

The Warrants are exercisable at any time after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date at an initial exercise price of $2.375 for cash (the "Warrant Shares"). The Warrants may also be exercised cashlessly if at any time after the nine-month anniversary of the issuance date, there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares. The Warrants shall expire five and a half years from its date of issuance. The Warrants are subject to customary anti-dilution provisions reflecting stock dividends and splits or other similar transactions.

The parties to the SPA have each made customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, among other things, (a) the Investors are "non-U.S. Persons" as defined in Regulation S and are acquiring the Units for the purpose of investment, (b) the absence of any undisclosed material adverse effects, and (c) the absence of legal proceedings that affect the completion of the transaction contemplated by the SPA.

The SPA is subject to various conditions to closing including NYSE American's completion of its review of the notification to NYSE American regarding the listing of the Units. The Units to be issued in the Offering are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Regulation S promulgated thereunder.

The net proceeds of this offering shall be used by the Company in connection with the Company's general corporate purposes, working capital, or other related business as approved by the board of directors of the Company.

The forms of the SPA and Warrant are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively, and such documents are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the SPA and the Warrant, which does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibits.
