Item 1 Comment:

The initial statement on Schedule 13D was filed on June 8, 2023 (the Initial Schedule 13D) by Marshall S. Geller (Mr. Geller) and the Geller Living Trust, dated July 26, 2002 (the Trust, and together with Mr. Geller, the Reporting Persons), relating to the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (Shares) of VerifyMe, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the Issuer). The Initial Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on September 1, 2023 and Amendment No. 2 filed on January 30, 2025, is hereby further amended with respect to the matters set forth below in this Amendment No. 3. Unless otherwise indicated herein, there are no material changes to the information set forth in the Initial Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment Numbers 1 and 2. The filing of this Amendment No. 3 represents the final amendment to the Initial Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

The 8% Convertible Subordinated Promissory Note in the principal amount of $175,000 (the Note), which was purchased by the Trust in the Issuer's private placement on August 25, 2023, matured on August 25, 2026. On August 25, 2026, the Issuer paid the Trust the principal amount of $175,000 plus accrued interest of $7,000, in accordance with the terms of the Note. Therefore, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own the 152,174 Shares into which the Note may have been converted. This has resulted in a change of 1% of the Reporting Person's beneficial ownership that was reported in the Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 2).

Item 5.

(a)

As of the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 3), Mr. Geller may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 591,448 Shares of the Issuer, consisting of 87,000 Shares owned directly by Mr. Geller, 405,034 Shares owned by the Trust, 31,104 Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants held by the Trust that are presently exercisable, and 68,310 vested RSUs held by the Trust that become payable, on a one-for-one basis, in Shares upon separation of Mr. Geller's service as a director, which represents approximately 4.5 percent of the Issuer's outstanding Shares. As of the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 3), the Trust may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 504,448 Shares of the Issuer, consisting of all of the Shares set forth above in this Item 5(a), except the 87,000 shares of Common Stock owned directly by Mr. Geller, which represents approximately 3.8 percent of the Issuer's outstanding Shares.

(b)

Mr. Geller has sole voting power over 87,000 Shares of the Issuer and has sole dispositive power over 52,000 Shares of the Issuer. Mr. Geller and the Trust share voting and dispositive power over 504,448 Shares of the Issuer.

(c)

The Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.

(d)

Not applicable.

(e)

Mr. Geller ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Issuer's securities on August 25, 2026.

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

As described in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 3), the Note matured on August 25, 2026 and was paid in accordance with its terms. Mr. Geller and the Issuer are parties to a Restricted Stock Award Agreement, dated as of October 9, 2025, pursuant to which the Issuer granted Mr. Geller an aggregate of 35,000 restricted Shares under the Issuer's 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted Shares will vest in full upon the earlier of the effective time of the merger transaction (as described in the Issuer's Form S-4 Registration Statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)) or October 9, 2026. The restricted Shares were granted by the Issuer to Mr. Geller as compensation for Mr. Geller's services as a member of the board of directors of the Issuer. The foregoing descriptions of certain material provisions of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement are qualified, in each case, by the full text of such agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 99.2 to the Initial Schedule 13D. Except as disclosed in Item 6 of the Initial Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment Numbers 1 and 2, and this Amendment No. 3, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the Reporting Persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.
