Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 12, 2024, China Pharma Holdings Inc.. (the “Company”) entered into that certain securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with certain institutional investor (the “Investor”) with respect to an at-the-market offering under which the Investor may purchase, and the Company may sell within the commitment period from December 12, 2024 to December 31, 2024, at the Investor’s sole discretion, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $600,000 (the “Shares”) (the “Offering”). Any Shares offered and sold in the Offering will be issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-276481) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 12, 2024, as amended, which was declared effective on February 14, 2024, the related prospectus contained therein, and the prospectus supplement relating to the Offering filed with the SEC on December 13, 2024.

The Investor may acquire our Common Stock through one or more closings upon our receipt of purchase notices. The number of our Common Stock will be determined based on the at-the-market price equal to the lower of (i) the closing price the day prior to the purchase notice or (ii) the five (5) day average closing prices as reported by Bloomberg or on the NYSE American Market’s website, but in no event shall the per share price be lower than $0.15, which is to be stated in the purchase notice subject to repricing adjustments as contemplated under the SPA as follows. In the event the Company’s delivery of the shares is not confirmed by 1:00 pm E.T. on the trading day the purchase notice is submitted, the Investor has the right to adjust the purchase price to match the at-the-market price on the date of the delivery of the purchase notice, which is only permitted if the market price on the delivery day is lower than the previously established price. Further, the Investor, has the right, in its sole discretion, to return to the Company any or all the shares issued under the SPA within one business day following the initial receipt of such shares and prior to the payment of the purchase price to the Company if, based on price discovery or market conditions, the Investor determines that the issuance of such shares is unfavorable.

Additionally, the Company also provided “most favored nation” treatment (the “MFN”) to the Investor should the Company enter into any financing, transaction, settlement, or similar agreement with more favorable terms within thirty (30) days after the effective date of this SPA. In the event any of the forgoing events occurs during the term above referenced, such more favorable terms shall be retroactively applied to all closed purchases and any future purchases under the SPA (the “MFN Adjustments”) as if the more favorable terms had been in effect prior to each closing. MFN Adjustments may include but are not limited to, at-the-market price discounts, the inclusion of warrants, or anti-dilution/true-up provisions. The difference in value from the MFN adjustments shall be issued to the Investor as a convertible note.

The actual proceeds to the Company will vary depending on the number of shares sold and the prices of such sales. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total offering amount and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time.

The offering of our Common Stock pursuant to the SPA will terminate on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investor has purchased our Common Stock in a value equal to $600,000, (ii) the date on which the Registration Statement is no longer effective, or (iii) December 31, 2024, unless extended or terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of the SPA.

The foregoing description of the SPA is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the SPA, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the opinion of Flangas Law Group relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares in the Offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

Failure to Register within Sixty (60) Business Days: Should the Company fail to register the underlying Common Stock of the Adjustment Note within sixty (60) Business Days of the MFN Trigger, a Failure to Register penalty equal to 8% of the Adjustment Note’s Current Value shall be added to the principal each week until the Adjustment Note is registered or fully converted into Common Stock by the Purchaser.

Confession of Judgment: The Adjustment Note shall include a Confession of Judgment, permitting the Purchaser to seek a legal validation of any accrued fees, damages, or legal costs associated with enforcing the Purchaser’s rights, if necessary.

Inclusion in Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instruction (ITAI): The Adjustment Note will be included within the ITAI, enabling the Purchaser to direct the Transfer Agent to reserve shares equivalent to the Adjustment Note balance, convert shares at its discretion, and if unregistered, instruct the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive legend per the Reliance Letter and accompanying legal opinion on exemption from registration requirements.

4.2.3.

The Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, Debt Securities, Units and Rights are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Securities.” Securities may be issued in an unspecified number (with respect to Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, Units and Rights) or in an unspecified principal amount (with respect to Debt Securities). The Registration Statement provides that the Securities may be offered separately or together, in separate series, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more prospectus supplements (each a “Prospectus Supplement”) to the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. As of December 12, 2024, the Company has entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Liqueous LP (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) to purchase a total number of up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock with an aggregate purchase amount of up to $600,000, not to exceed 20% of the outstanding Common Stock.

4.
