American Marconi Wireless News - SMX Announces $111.5M Equity Purchase Agreement with Target Capital 1, LLC

Under the terms of the Agreement, the investor will purchase a convertible promissory note from SMX in the principal amount of $11.5 million (with an OID of 20%, for a face value of $14.375 million), and further, SMX has the right to sell and the investor has the obligation to purchase, up to $100 million worth of the Company's ordinary shares in an equity line of credit. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, SMX, at its sole discretion, will control the timing and amount of all sales of ordinary shares under the equity line, and the investor will control the timing and amount of conversions under the promissory note. The Company is not obligated to utilize any of the $100 million available under the equity line and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties. Neither the equity line nor the promissory note imposes any restrictions on the Company's operating activities. For the commitment under the equity line, SMX agreed to issue to the investor, ordinary shares or pre-funded warrants equal in value to $2 million (the "Commitment Shares").

The closing of the transactions is expected to occur on or about December 2, 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

RBW Capital Partners LLC is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.

A copy of the Agreement and the promissory note is available in the Company's Report on Form 6-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

The promissory note, the Commitment Shares, and the shares available under the equity line and upon conversion of the promissory note, were offered in a private placement pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and have not been registered under the 1933 Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. SMX has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the Commitment Shares, the ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the promissory note, and the ordinary shares issuable under the equity line.

This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these common shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
