Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 21, 2022, Cipher Mining Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Agent”), under which the Company may, from time to time, sell shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250.0 million in “at the market offerings” through the Agent. Sales of the shares of common stock, if any, will be made at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, or as otherwise agreed with the Agent. The Agent will receive a commission from the Company of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold under the Sales Agreement.

The Company is not obligated to sell, and the Agent is not obligated to buy or sell, any shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement. No assurance can be given that the Company will sell any shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement, or, if it does, as to the price or amount of shares of common stock that it sells or the dates when such sales will take place.

In the Sales Agreement, the Company agreed to indemnify the Agent against certain liabilities, including under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or to contribute to payments that the Agent may be required to make because of such liabilities. The Company and the Agent may each terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon specified prior written notice.

The shares will be issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3, including the prospectus supplement contained therein, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 21, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”), once the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC. A copy of the Sales Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sales Agreement.

A copy of the opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP relating to the validity of the shares of common stock that may be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
