<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">SMX enables materials to carry a history that can be authenticated through origination, use, recycle, and multiple reuse cycles. The company&#146;s B2B white
label platforms power commercial sustainability applications across a variety of industries, including timber, rubber, palm oil, cocoa, steel, gold, luxury goods, leather, plastics, and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-ferrous</FONT> metals, to
transition successfully to a sustainable circular economy, thus reducing their carbon footprint and waste. SMX offers a robust, innovative, and scalable solution for supply chain authentication, traceability, and transparency to transform businesses
for participation in the circular economy. Its technology gives materials in solid, liquid, and gas forms the ability to maintain a virtual memory of origination, processing and supply chain journey, including the ability to authenticate provenance,
as well as to track recycling loop counts and the percentage of authenticated and/or recycled materials contained. The data is recorded digitally on blockchain, and a linking molecular chemical marker is embedded in the product itself and can be
read with a proprietary reader. The SMX technology has been in active operational use on a national scale by the Israeli Government for more than ten years, is environmentally sustainable and has a proven track record. The SMX solution is an
efficient, cost effective, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">drop-in</FONT> solution within an existing supply chain, enabling substantial benefits for manufacturers, consumers, and others in the value chain &#150; and the planet, including providing
the necessary data for product recycling and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">re-use.</FONT> In addition, the SMX technology addresses the issue of the increase in waste globally by enabling the increase in demand for verified, usable recycled
materials by creating a commoditized, tradable certified asset which is the recycled material, which can be traded and sold to other players in the value chain and ecosystem. </P>

&#147;should,&#148; &#147;would&#148; and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this press release may
include, for example: changes in SMX&#146;s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans; SMX&#146;s ability to develop and launch new products and services; SMX&#146;s ability

are based on information available as of the date of this press release, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied
upon as representing views as of any subsequent date, and no obligation is undertaken to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these
forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include: the ability to maintain the listing of the Company&#146;s shares on Nasdaq; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the effects of the <FONT

opportunities; the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which SMX operates; the risk that SMX and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize
SMX&#146;s products or services, or experience significant delays in doing so; the risk that the Company may never achieve or sustain profitability; the risk that SMX will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not
be available on acceptable terms or at all; the risk that SMX experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations; the risk that third-party suppliers and manufacturers are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations;
the risk that SMX is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property; the possibility that SMX may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties described in SMX&#146;s filings
