Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 27, 2022, Siebert Financial Corp. (the "Company") entered into a Capital on DemandTM Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC, as agent ("Agent"), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time through or to the Agent, shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), having an aggregate offering price of up to $9,600,000 (the "Offering").

The offer and sale of the Shares will be made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-262895) and the related base prospectus filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 18, 2022, and declared effective by the SEC on March 2, 2022 (the "Registration Statement"), as supplemented by a prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") dated May 27, 2022 and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

Under the Sales Agreement, Agent may sell the Shares by any method permitted by law and deemed to be an "at the market offering" as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company may instruct Agent not to sell the Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company from time to time.

The Company is not obligated to make any sales of the Shares under the Sales Agreement. The Company or Agent may suspend or terminate the Offering upon notice to the other party and subject to other conditions.

The Company will pay Agent a commission rate equal to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of Shares and has agreed to provide Agent with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company will also reimburse Agent for certain specified expenses in connection with entering into the Sales Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.25 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp LLP, counsel to the Company, has issued a legal opinion relating to the Shares. A copy of such legal opinion, including the consent included therein, is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

The Shares will be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, and offerings of the Shares will be made only by means of the Prospectus Supplement and any accompanying prospectus. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities law of such state or jurisdiction.
