You’re missing the “done” statement. Add a line 8 containing just “done “.
You have a backslash at the end of line 6. The backslash indicates that there will be a continuation on the next line. That's why there's an error about line 7, if you don't have a line 7. If that's not what you meant, then you should remove it.
6 --tab -t "SMM" -e " sh -c 'sleep 10s; ./startapp SMM' "\

You can not declare DISPLAY AS IT HAS A special meaning and will be setup when the incoming connection includes an X11 tunnel and this server supports x11forwarding in sshd_config.
If you don't understand how DISPLAY is used, then you shouldn't be changing it yourself. You should also remove that backslash at the end of line 6, rather than adding a blank line for no good reason.
