We are not selling any Common Stock under this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Additional Conversion Shares, the Additional Warrant Shares, or the Additional RRA Shares by the selling stockholders.

We provide more information about how the selling stockholder may sell their shares of Common Stock in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” on page 13.
The selling stockholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to the sale or disposition of the shares of Common Stock, or interests therein.

Senior Secured Notes Financing
On March 18, 2026, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Buyers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Buyers senior secured promissory notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate original principal amount of $3,750,000 for an aggregate purchase price of $2,625,000, reflecting an original issue discount of approximately 30%.
The Notes do not bear interest unless an Event of Default (as defined therein) has occurred, in which case interest accrues at a rate of 14% per annum. The Notes mature on the six-month anniversary of the original issuance date, subject to extension at the option of each Buyer in the event that an Event of Default has occurred. In addition, if we or any of our subsidiaries consummates a subsequent placement of securities, each Buyer may elect to exchange all or any portion of the then outstanding principal amount of its Note into the securities being issued in such subsequent placement, with the aggregate amount of such securities valued at 120% of the exchanged principal amount.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Security and Pledge Agreement (the "Security Agreement," and together with the Purchase Agreement, the Notes, and the Guaranties (as defined below), the "Transaction Documents") in favor of the collateral agent (the "Collateral Agent") for the benefit of the Buyers. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Grantors granted to the Collateral Agent a first priority perfected security interest in all of our existing and future assets and our direct and indirect subsidiaries, including a pledge of all of the capital stock of each subsidiary, as security for our obligations under the Transaction Documents.
In connection with the Security Agreement, we also entered into an Intellectual Property Security Agreement (the "IP Security Agreement"), pursuant to which the Grantors granted to the Collateral Agent a continuing security interest in certain of their intellectual property, as additional collateral security for the obligations under the Transaction Documents. In addition, each of our subsidiaries executed and delivered Guaranties (the "Guaranties") in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Buyers, pursuant to which each such subsidiary unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed the payment and performance of all of our obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Notes, and the other Transaction Documents.
Settlement Agreement with Noteholder
On March 18, 2026, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the "Settlement Agreement") with certain holders (the "Noteholders") of a senior secured notes that we issued on October 31, 2025 (the "Notes") to resolve certain claims alleged by the Noteholders against us arising under the Notes, all of which we denied. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, we agreed to (i) pay the Noteholders a cash settlement payment of $300,000, (ii) repay the outstanding balance of the Notes in full, and (iii) assign, transfer, and convey to the Noteholders all of our right, title, and interest in and to certain patents and patent applications (the "Assigned Patents"). Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, we also agreed to continue the employment of a designated employee for six months following the effective date of the Settlement Agreement to serve as a liaison and provide the Noteholders with information, assistance, and support related to the Assigned Patents. In exchange, the Noteholders agreed to terminate their liens on our assets and release us and our affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and representatives from any and all claims arising under the Notes and the related securities purchase agreement. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, we also granted a release in favor of the Noteholders, releasing it from any and all claims we may have had.

Corporate Information
We were incorporated as Parasol Investments Corporation in the State of Delaware on May 13, 2020. SmartKem Limited was incorporated under the laws of England and Wales on July 21, 2008. On February 23, 2021, we completed an exchange with SmartKem Limited and the former shareholders of SmartKem Limited (the “Exchange”) pursuant to which substantially all of the equity interests in SmartKem Limited were exchanged for shares of our Common Stock, and SmartKem Limited became our wholly owned subsidiary. Immediately following the Exchange, the business of SmartKem Limited became our business and we changed our name to “SmartKem, Inc.” Prior to the Exchange, Parasol Investments Corporation was a “shell” company registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), with no specific business plan or purpose until it began operating the business of SmartKem Limited following the closing of the Exchange.
On June 12, 2026, the Company announced that the directors of SmartKem, Ltd., a corporation organized under English law and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, had instructed an administrator to assist in the process of placing SmartKem, Ltd. into creditors Voluntary Liquidation, which will not impact the Company’s current operations.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in the Exchange Act. We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting Common Stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting Common Stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation and, if we are a smaller reporting company with less than $100 million in annual revenue, we would not be required to obtain an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm.
Any investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to purchase our Common Stock, investors should carefully consider the risks described below together with the “Risk Factors” described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any updates described in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects are subject to the following material risks as well as those material risks incorporated by reference. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently foreseeable to us may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and our stockholders may lose all or part of their investment in the shares of our Common Stock.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock by the selling stockholders covered by this prospectus.
We are registering shares of Common Stock that may be issued by us to the selling stockholders upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the Warrants to permit the resale of these shares of Common Stock from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholder of the shares of Common Stock. We will, however, receive the net proceeds of any Warrants exercised for cash.
We may require additional funding through further issuances of our Common Stock or other securities, which may negatively affect the market price of our Common Stock.
To operate our business, we may need to raise additional capital through sales of our Common Stock, securities exercisable for or convertible into our Common Stock or debt securities pursuant to which interest and/or principal payments may be satisfied through the issuance of our Common Stock. Future sales of such securities or our Common Stock could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our Common Stock and our ability to raise capital in the future, and may cause you to incur additional dilution.
We do not intend to pay dividends on our Common Stock so any returns will depend on appreciation in the price of our Common Stock.
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings, if any, for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any return to stockholders will, therefore, be limited to the appreciation of their respective shares. There is no guarantee that our Common Stock will appreciate in value or maintain the price at which you purchased them.

Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants
On March 30, 2026, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement") with the selling stockholders, including certain March Noteholders (as defined below) pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the selling stockholders in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), at an initial closing, (i) 11,411.5 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, with a stated value of $1,000 per share, convertible into shares of Common Stock, at an initial conversion price of $0.5812 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Certificate of Designations (as defined below), and (ii) the Warrants to purchase up to 24,542,982 shares of Common Stock. The purchase price under the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement was satisfied in cash or by exchange of Notes (defined below).
On March 18, 2026, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "March Note Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors (the “March Noteholders”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the March Note Holders senior secured promissory notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate original principal amount of $3,750,000 for an aggregate purchase price of $2,625,000, reflecting an original issue discount of approximately 30%. Pursuant to the Notes, each March Noteholder may elect to exchange all or any portion of the then outstanding principal amount of its Note into the securities being issued in such subsequent placement, with the aggregate amount of such securities valued at 120% of the exchanged principal amount. In connection with the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, each holder of a Note provided a limited waiver of any term or condition of the transaction documents entered into in connection with the March Note Purchase Agreement that would otherwise restrict or prohibit the execution and delivery of the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the other transaction documents entered into in connection therewith and the issuance of the securities thereunder, solely with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement.
| 5 |
The Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement also provides the selling stockholders with the right, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to require us to participate in one or more additional closings (each, an “Additional Closing”) for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 10,000 additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants within 12 months of the initial closing date. An Additional Closing occurred on June 22, 2026, at which we sold to certain selling stockholders an additional 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and additional Warrants to purchase up to 10,756,839 shares of Common Stock. The purchase price for the securities sold at such Additional Closing under the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement was satisfied in cash.
The Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of us and the selling stockholders customary for similar transactions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.
In addition, the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement prohibits us from issuing any shares of Series A Preferred Stock (other than to the selling stockholders) without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined under the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement). During the period commencing on the date of the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and ending on the date immediately following the 90th trading day after the earlier of (x) the effectiveness of the initial registration statement required by the Preferred Stock Registration Rights Agreement and (y) the date all registrable securities are eligible for resale under Rule 144, we and our subsidiaries are prohibited from directly or indirectly issuing, offering, selling or otherwise disposing of any equity or equity-linked securities, subject to certain exceptions. Furthermore, we and our subsidiaries are prohibited from effecting any variable rate transaction until the later of (x) the expiration of the Additional Closing period and (y) the date no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding. We are also prohibited from granting, issuing or selling shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents (other than certain excluded securities) at a price per share less than the then-effective conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock during the period commencing on the initial closing date and ending on the third anniversary of the initial closing date.
We were required to seek stockholder approval (the "Preferred Stock Stockholder Approval"), either by (x) obtaining the written consent of the requisite stockholders and filing an information statement with the SEC no later than 45 calendar days after the initial closing date, or (y) holding a special or annual meeting of stockholders no later than the 60th calendar day after the initial closing date, for (i) an increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock from 300,000,000 to 5,000,000,000, (ii) the removal of the restriction on stockholder action by written consent, (iii) the issuance of all securities under the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement in compliance with the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, (iv) a reverse stock split of the Common Stock in such ratio as determined by the Board of Directors, and (v) an increase in the number of shares issuable under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. The Preferred Stock Stockholder Approval was obtained at our 2026 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting held on June 23, 2026 for (i), (iii), (iv) and (v).
Moreover, until the later of (x) the expiration of the Additional Closing period and (y) the date no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, we are prohibited from (a) directly or indirectly redeeming, or declaring or paying any cash dividend or distribution on, any of our securities without the prior written consent of the selling stockholders (other than as required by the Certificate of Designations) and (b) effecting any stock combination, reverse stock split or similar transaction without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (except as necessary to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC). We are also required to retain a consultant, recommended by the Required Holders and reasonably acceptable to us, to provide advice on strategic acquisitions and new business development and related consulting services within 30 days of the initial closing date, for compensation not to exceed $240,000.
In connection with the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, on March 30, 2026, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Preferred Stock Registration Rights Agreement") with the selling stockholders, pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of certain shares of Common Stock, including Additional Conversion Shares, the Additional Warrant Shares, or the Additional RRA Shares, no later than the tenth day following our filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and to use our reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC no later than 60 calendar days after the initial closing date (or 120 calendar days if subject to a full review by the SEC). The Preferred Stock Registration Rights Agreement provides for the payment of certain cash penalties to the selling stockholders in the event we fail to satisfy our registration obligations thereunder.

The shares of Common Stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those issuable to the selling stockholders upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Additional Conversion Shares, the Additional Warrant Shares, and the Additional RRA Shares, see “Private Placement” above. We are registering the shares of Common Stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the Additional Conversion Shares, the Additional Warrant Shares, and the Additional RRA Shares issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.
The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder) of the shares of Common Stock held by each of the selling stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders, based on their respective ownership of shares of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants, as of June [__], 2026, assuming conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants held by each such selling stockholder on that date but taking account of any limitations on conversion and exercise set forth therein.
The third column lists the shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders and does not take in account any limitations on (i) conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock set forth in the certificate of designations or (ii) exercise of the Warrants set forth therein.
| 7 |
The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.
Under the terms of the certificate of designations and the Warrants, a selling stockholder may not convert the Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the Warrants to the extent (but only to the extent) such selling stockholder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own a number of shares of our Common Stock which would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The number of shares in the second column reflects these limitations. The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

The following is a summary description of the material terms of our Common Stock as provided in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”), and Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”), copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The following discussion is only a summary and may not contain all the information that is important to you or that you should consider before investing in our stock, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. For a more detailed description of these securities, you should read the applicable provisions of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws and the reports that we file with the SEC, which are incorporated herein by reference.
General
We have authorized capital stock consisting of 5,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock is 31,412 shares, each with a par value of $0.0001 per share and a stated value of $1,000 per share.
| 9 |
Common Stock
Voting Rights
Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting rights. Because of this, the holders of a plurality of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose. With respect to matters other than the election of directors, at any meeting of the stockholders at which a quorum is present or represented, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders, except as otherwise required by law. The holders of one-third of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders.
Dividends
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding convertible preferred stock, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds.
We have never paid cash dividends on our Common Stock. Moreover, we do not anticipate paying periodic cash dividends on our Common Stock for the foreseeable future. Any future determination about the payment of dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, capital requirements, operating and financial conditions, contractual restrictions, including any loan or debt financing agreements, and on such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.
Liquidation
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then-outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Series A Preferred Stock
Voting Rights
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock have no voting power except as required by the Delaware General Corporation Law or as set forth in the Certificate of Designations with respect to certain protective matters requiring the consent of the Required Holders.
Conversion
Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of Common Stock at a conversion rate determined by dividing the conversion amount by the conversion price of $0.5812 per share, with alternate conversion options available following stockholder approval (at 90% of the lowest VWAP during the five preceding trading days) or upon a triggering event (at 80% of such VWAP, with the conversion amount subject to a required premium of 125%), in each case subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation (adjustable to 9.99% upon 61 days' prior written notice).
Dividends
Dividends are payable when and as declared by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, in cash, securities or other assets, on the stated value of each share, provided that upon the occurrence and continuance of a triggering event, default dividends accrue at a rate of 15.0% per annum.
| 10 |
Ranking
The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Common Stock and all other junior capital stock with respect to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company.
Liquidation
Upon a liquidation event, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, before any payment to holders of junior stock, an amount per share equal to the sum of (i) the Black-Scholes value of the outstanding portion of all Warrants held by such holder and (ii) the greater of (A) 125% of the applicable conversion amount and (B) the amount per share such holder would receive upon conversion immediately prior to such event.
Warrants
Cashless Exercise
The Warrants provide for cashless exercise in the event a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is not effective.
Beneficial Ownership Limitation
The exercise of the Warrants is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (adjustable to 9.99% upon 61 days' prior written notice by the holder).
Anti-Dilution and Price Adjustments
The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and similar transactions, as well as full ratchet anti-dilution protection upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents (other than certain excluded securities) at a price per share below the then-effective exercise price. The exercise price is also subject to adjustment upon certain stock combination events and, following the date the Preferred Stock Stockholder Approval (as defined below) is obtained, is subject to periodic adjustment to the market price of the Common Stock for a period of 180 calendar days. Prior to the date the Preferred Stock Stockholder Approval is obtained, no adjustment may reduce the exercise price below $0.5812.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Our Amended and Restated Bylaws
Certain provisions of Delaware law and certain provisions included in our Certificate of Incorporation and in Bylaws summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter, or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.
Preferred Stock
Our Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions that permit our board of directors to issue, without any further vote or action by the stockholders, shares of preferred stock in one or more series and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares constituting the series and the designation of the series, the voting rights (if any) of the shares of the series and the powers, preferences, or relative, participation, optional, and other special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations, or restrictions, of the shares of such series.
Classified Board of Directors
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that our board of directors is divided into three classes, with the number of directors in each class being as nearly equal in number as possible. The directors in each class serve for a three-year term, one class being elected each year by our stockholders, with staggered three-year terms. These provisions may have the effect of deferring, delaying or discouraging hostile takeovers, or changes in control of us or our management.
| 11 |
Removal of Directors
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that stockholders may only remove a director for cause.
Director Vacancies
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes only our board of directors to fill vacant directorships.
No Cumulative Voting
Our Certificate of Incorporation does not provide stockholders with the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors.
Special Meetings of Stockholders
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the chairperson of our board of directors, the chief executive officer, or our board of directors.
Advance Notice Procedures for Director Nominations
Our bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally will have to be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices before notice of the meeting is issued by our secretary, with such notice being served not less than 90 nor more than 120 days before the meeting. Although the Bylaws do not give the board of directors the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates to be elected at an annual meeting, the Bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed or may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
Action by Written Consent
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that any action to be taken by the stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by written consent.
Amending our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of at least 66 2∕3% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of all outstanding shares then entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, is required to amend certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation.
Our Bylaws may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by stockholders only upon approval of at least 66 2∕3% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of all outstanding shares then entitled to vote, voting together as a single class. Additionally, our Certificate of Incorporation provides that our bylaws may be amended, altered or repealed by the board of directors.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
Our authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuances without stockholder approval, except as required by the listing standards of any exchange upon which our Common Stock may become listed and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise.
| 12 |
Exclusive Jurisdiction
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, unless we consent to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware, is the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, or other employee to the us or our stockholders, any action arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws (as either may be amended from time to time), or (iv) (A) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the law of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be exclusively brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, the federal district court of the State of Delaware and (B) the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to actions arising under the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Although our Certificate of Incorporation contains the exclusive forum provisions described above, it is possible that a court could find that such provision is inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provision is unenforceable, and our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute
We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a person deemed an “interested stockholder” from engaging in a “business combination” with a publicly held Delaware corporation for three years following the date such person becomes an interested stockholder unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock.
Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti- takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors, such as discouraging takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the price of our Common Stock.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Our transfer agent and registrar is Equiniti Trust Company LLC whose address is 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219.
Listing
Our Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SMTK.”
We are registering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred shares and the exercise of the warrants to permit the resale of these shares of Common Stock by the holders of the preferred shares from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of Common Stock, although we will receive the exercise price of any warrants not exercised by the seling stockholders on a cashless exercise basis. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of Common Stock.
| 13 |
The selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock held by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of Common Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of Common Stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions, pursuant to one or more of the following methods:
| · | on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale; |
| · | in the over-the-counter market; |
| · | in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market; |
| · | through the writing or settlement of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise; |
| · | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| · | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| · | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| · | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| · | privately negotiated transactions; |
| · | short sales made after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC; |
| · | broker-dealers may agree with a selling security holder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
| · | a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
| · | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common Stock under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer the shares of Common Stock by other means not described in this prospectus. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of Common Stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the shares of Common Stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common Stock short and deliver shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.
The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the preferred shares, warrants or shares of Common Stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
| 14 |
To the extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock.
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $36,500 in total, including, without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, a selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act in accordance with the registration rights agreements or the selling stockholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreements or we may be entitled to contribution.
Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Meister Seelig & Schuster PLLC, New York, New York. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers, or agents by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Item 15. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
Section 102 of the DGCL permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director of the Company shall be personally liable to it or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability, except to the extent that the DGCL prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty.
Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or a person serving at the request of the corporation for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, ending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide indemnification for our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

Item 17. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement;.
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
| (i) | Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and |
| (ii) | Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(l)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; |
| 20 |
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser;
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;
(7) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

| Re: | Registration Statement on Form S-3 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for SmartKem, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) filed on July 2, 2026 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for purposes of registering for resale under the Securities Act up to 160,260,999 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), including shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated March 30, 2026, (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company and the investors named therein (the holders of the Shares, the “Selling Stockholders”).
In connection therewith, we have reviewed originals or copies identified to our satisfaction of the following documents (collectively, the “Documents”):
| (a) | The Registration Statement and related prospectus; |
(b) The Purchase Agreement;
(c) Warrants to purchase Common Stock issued by the Company on or about March 30, 2026;
(d) The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, filed on December 20, 2024, with the Office of the Delaware Secretary of State (“DESOS”); the Certificate of Designations of Rights and Preferences of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, filed on March 30, 2026, with the DESOS; and the By-Laws of the Company dated January 29, 2019; and
(e) Resolutions adopted by the Company’s board of directors and stockholders relating to the issuance of the Shares.
The opinions set forth herein are subject to the following qualifications, which are in addition to any other qualifications contained herein:
A. We have assumed without verification the genuineness of all signatures on all documents, the authority of the parties (other than the Company) executing such documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.
The Board of Directors

B. The opinions set forth herein are based on existing laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, court and administrative decisions as they presently have been interpreted and our opinions do not apply to any change in, and the effect thereof on, any of the foregoing occurring after the date hereof.
C. We have assumed without verification that, with respect to the minutes of any meetings of the stockholders of the Company or of the Board of Directors or any committees thereof of the Company that we have examined, due notice of the meetings was given or duly waived, the minutes accurately and completely reflect all actions taken at the meetings and a quorum was present and acting throughout the meetings.
D. We have assumed without verification the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in (i) the Registration Statement (including but not limited to statements therein as to the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding), as well as all of the other Documents and (ii) all corporate records made available to us by the Company.
E. We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction other than the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America. As to matters governed by the laws specified in the foregoing sentence, we have relied exclusively on the latest standard compilations of such statutes and laws as reproduced in commonly accepted unofficial publications available to us. The opinions herein are as of the date hereof and are based on current law and facts and circumstances. We have no obligation, and expressly decline any undertaking, to revise or supplement this opinion or otherwise advise you should applicable law or the existing facts and circumstances change.
Based on the foregoing, upon the assumptions that there will be no changes in the documents we have examined and the other matters referred to above, we are of the opinion that the Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the Registration Statement have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered by the Company in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in effect.
Please note that we are opining only as to the matters expressly set forth herein, and no opinion should be inferred as to any other matters.
