Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 8, 2024, Edible Garden AG Incorporated (the “Company”) and Meijer Distribution, Inc. (“Buyer”) entered into two agreements pursuant to which the Company will supply and sell products to Buyer (the “Agreements”).

Under the Agreements, the Company will sell (i) fresh cut herbs, including basil, bay leaves, chives, cilantro, dill, mint, oregano, rosemary, sage, thyme; (ii) hydroponic basil; and (iii) potted herbs, including basil, chives, cilantro, mint, oregano, parsley, rosemary, sage, thyme, wheatgrass; in quantities and delivery schedule requested by the Buyer at prices per unit set in advance by the Company and the Buyer. Under the Agreements, the Company and the Buyer will renegotiate the prices for each unit annually, provided that the price per unit will not increase or decrease at a rate greater than the change in the relevant Consumer Price Index in that year. Once set, the pricing terms will remain fixed for the remainder of the year. Any price increases will take affect after sixty days and any price decrease will be effective immediately. If the Company and the Buyer are unable to mutually agree on price increases, the Company will have the power to terminate the Agreements immediately.

In addition, under the agreement governing the purchase of potted herbs, the Company has agreed to fund the installation of fixtures in each of the Buyer’s stores to display the potted herbs in an aggregate amount estimated to be approximately $800,000. These payments will be made as a weekly deduction from the Company’s receivables from the Buyer.

The Agreements became effective as of January 1, 2024 and expire on December 31, 2026. The Agreements may be renewed for an additional two-year term upon the mutual agreement of the Company and the Buyer. The Agreements may be terminated by the Buyer without cause upon sixty days’ prior notice.

The foregoing summaries of the Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
