Availability of Funds.  SMGI currently has, readily available, and under its control on an unrestricted basis (except only those restrictions set forth on Schedule 4.1(i) hereto, which for clarity, are not conditions to Closing or to SMGI’s obligations, but merely modifications to this representation) all funds necessary to perform its obligations under the Agreement and the Amendment to provide interim funding and make the payments contemplated by Section 5.9 and 5.10(b) of the Amendment, and not later than the Outside Date will have, readily available, and under its control on an unrestricted basis (except only those restrictions set forth on Schedule 4.1(i) hereto, which for clarity, are not conditions to Closing or SMGI’s obligations, but merely modifications to this representation) all funds necessary to consummate the purchase of all of the Preferred Shares contemplated to be purchased hereby.”

1.2.  Article 5 is hereby amended by adding the following sections.

“5.9  Interim Funding.  During the period between the Amendment Effective Date and the Closing, SMGI shall continue to provide funding to the Company in accordance with the budget attached as Schedule A, it being acknowledged that, through the Amendment Effective Date, SMGI has provided funding to the Company in the aggregate amount of $228,894.23.  All amounts so funded (the “Funded Payments”) shall be evidenced by promissory notes of the Company (each a “Note”) in the same form and having the same terms as the notes already issued to SMGI in respect of advances of the Purchase Price.  Any Note shall be convertible, at the option of SMGI, into shares of Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis based on the conversion ratio set forth in the Series A Certificate of Designation.  To the extent applicable, the Funded Payments shall reduce the Closing Payments.

(b)  SMGI shall promptly (but not later than the close of business on Friday, February 11, 2010):

(i)  In satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to Charles Champion, pay to Mr. Champion $150,000 (the “Champion Payment”) as follows:  $75,000 in cash and issuing to him restricted shares of SMGI’s Common Stock valued at $2.30 per share.

(ii)  Pay all amounts due as of the Amendment Effective Date pursuant to Section 5.9, and make the those portions of the “Closing Payments” to the persons specified in Section 5.6 of the Disclosure Schedule as specified on Schedule A.

(c)  Notwithstanding Mr. Champion’s resignation, upon new board members being appointed under Section 5.10(a), prior to the Closing he (or his designee or designees) shall be vested with the sole authority to take, at Company expense, with the same authority and protection as if specifically instructed by the board of directors, all appropriate action on behalf of the Company to enforce the Company’s rights under the Agreement and Amendment, grant waivers thereunder or hereunder, execute any amendment to the Agreement or the Amendment on behalf of the Company and authorize any deliveries or other actions necessary for the Closing.”

5.11.  Credit to Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the Funded Payments, the Champion Payment, all amounts paid to Gumbiner Savett, Inc. with respect to the audit and review of the Company’s financial statements, and all amounts (not to exceed $231,525) paid to William Kelly or assumed by SMGI in connection with the amount owed by the Company to Mr. Kelly.

1.3.  SMGI agrees acknowledges that all of the conditions to closing in Section 6.1, have been satisfied to date and agrees that, notwithstanding such conditions (other than the conditions in Section 6.1(f) and 6.1 (d)(i),(ii), (iv), (v) and (vi), which shall continue to be conditions to Closing in accordance with their terms; provided, that 6.1(d)(iv), (v) and (vi) need only be satisfied as of the Amendment Effective Date in order for such conditions to be deemed satisfied for all purposes), SMGI is unconditionally obligated to consummate the purchase and other transactions contemplated by the Agreement and this Amendment and pay the full Purchase Price (as may be adjusted by Sections 5.9 and 5.11) as provided in amended Section 7.1 of the Agreement (see section 1.4 of this Amendment below). Additionally, SMGI shall pay any additional amount required to purchase an extended discovery policy upon the Closing.

1.4.  Section 7.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety by inserting the following in lieu thereof.

“The completion of any transactions of purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of TroyGould PC, 1801 Century Park East, Suite 1600, Los Angeles, California 90067 as soon as possible but in no event shall the Closing occur later than March 31, 2010 (the “Outside Date”) except that the Outside Date may be extended with approval of the Parties.  In the event that the Closing has not occurred by the Outside Date, or in the event of any other material breach hereof by SMGI, then in addition to any other remedies available to the Company, on five business days notice, SMGI shall cause the SMGI Designees to appoint the designees of the Company to the Company’s board of directors (the “Company Designees”) and the SMGI Designees shall resign.  The Company Designees shall be the individual(s) designated by Charles Champion.”
 
 
 

 
 
1.5.  Section 9.1(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following in lieu thereof:

“(b) The Company, on the one hand, or SMGI, on the other hand, if the Closing has not occurred by Outside Date because the non-terminating party has materially breached this Agreement and not cured such breach in a reasonable time; provided, the party purporting to terminate is not itself in material breach.”

1.7.  Paul Feller shall deliver to the Company, at the Amendment Effective Date, a guarantee of certain obligations in form and substance satisfactory to the Company.

1.8  In addition to its post-Closing obligations under Section 8.3, SMGI shall also comply with such section prior to the Closing after the board and management changes contemplated by Section 5.10 have become effective.  In addition, those persons who are reasonably intended third party beneficiaries of the post-Closing obligations in Section 8.3 shall be deemed to have such status, notwithstanding anything contrary in the Agreement.
