ACQUISITION AGREEMENT

This ACQUISITION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 30, 2024, by and among SMC Entertainment, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), ChainTrade, Ltd., a United Kingdom company (“ChainTrade”), and the Shareholders of ChainTrade identified on Exhibit A attached hereto (each a “Shareholder” and collectively, the “Shareholders”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Annex A attached hereto.

WHEREAS, all of the authorized Shares in ChainTrade (the “ChainTrade Shares”) are issued and outstanding, and all of which are held by the undersigned Shareholders.

WHEREAS, the Shareholders have agreed to sell all of assets owned by ChainTrade (the “ChainTrade Assets”) as detailed on Exhibit A, to the Company in exchange for the issuance to ChainTrade of a promissory note in the principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Note”), carrying 5% interest, which is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $1 per share, attached hereto as Exhibit B, (the “Note”) and b) $500,000 to be paid over the next 18 months, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the “Acquisition”).

WHEREAS, the Acquisition is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or such other tax free reorganization or restructuring provisions as may be available under the Code.

WHEREAS, both the board of directors of the Company and of ChainTrade have each determined that it is desirable and in the best interests of the Shareholders of their respective companies to affect the Acquisition, which, upon the Closing Date, will cause all of the ChainTrade Assets to be owned by the Company.

ARTICLE I

CONSIDERATION

1.1. Exchange by the Shareholders. At the Closing, ChainTrade shall exchange all of the ChainTrade Assets, detailed herein on Exhibit Afor the Note.

Working Capital. ChainTrade shall receive a total of $500,000 in working capital (“Working Capital”), paid in tranches over 18 months (each a “Tranche”). The first Tranche of $30,000 shall be paid on the Closing Date to be set within 5 Business days of the execution of this Agreement, and each subsequent Tranche of $30,000 shall be paid every 45 days thereafter until a total of $500,000 is paid. If the Company is late paying any Tranche to ChainTrade, a penalty of 10% will be added to the balance owed for that Tranche, following a 15 day grace period (the “Grace Period”). If the Company fails to pay ChainTrade any Tranche due during the Grace Period, then on the 75^th day, ChainTrade reserves the right to suspend operations of the platform until the past due Tranche is paid. In the event that the Company fails to pay any past due amount by the 90^th day, this Agreement, would be considered in default and the remaining balance owed for Working Capital will be due in full, plus an additional 10% penalty.

1.2. Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall take place at the offices of the Company or electronically, commencing upon the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions and obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (other than conditions and obligations with respect to the actions that the respective parties will take at Closing) or such other date and time as the parties may mutually determine (the “Closing Date”).

2.8 Restricted Securities. The Shareholders understand that the Note (and the shares of Common Stock into which the Note may later be converted), are characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as this Agreement contemplates that, if acquired by the Shareholders pursuant hereto, the Note would be acquired in a transaction not involving a public offering. The Shareholders further acknowledge that if the Note is issued to the Shareholders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Note may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or the existence of an exemption therefrom.

2.9 Legends. The Shareholders understands that the Note will bear the following legend or another legend that is similar to the following:
