Item 8.01 Other Events

Overview

We currently operate three primary businesses:

1.	An information technology (IT) business through our wholly owned subsidiary Kevlertech, Inc., an Illinois corporation d/b/a/ Millennium Information & Technology Consultants, Ltd. (“MIT”) acquired in August 2007,

2.	An Independent Sales Organization (“ISO”) for prepaid debit cards through our wholly owned subsidiary, Columbia Card Services International, LLC, a California limited liability company (“CCSI”) acquired in November 2007, and

Prepaid debit card processing, through our ownership of the software and patents of RBA International (“RBA”) through foreclosure and their agreements with various vendors, banks and other entities through the subsequent acquisition and merger of RBA International into a wholly owned subsidiary, RBA Acquisition Corp as of September 2008.

We plan to continue to identify and pursue strategic acquisition opportunities of complementary companies and technologies towards our goal of establishing ourselves as a premier provider of information technology and mobile banking products and services.

We were incorporated in the state of Florida in June 1997. Prior to 2007, we were a development stage company. During our existence, we have, at separate times, focused on the development of a text messaging business and, before that, on the creation and provision of platforms for internet businesses. In 2007, we decided to explore and commenced exploration of a variety of other business opportunities.

Financing

In order to pursue acquisitions, on August 6, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with 3V Capital LLC and Distressed High Yield Fund Ltd. pursuant to which we issued promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $13 million and 13 million shares of our common stock. The Securities Purchase Agreement contemplated that the parties would consummate a follow-on financing pursuant to which additional notes and shares would be issued under the same terms and conditions as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement. We consummated a follow-on financing for $675,000 on October 12, 2007 pursuant to which we issued a promissory note in the aggregate amount of $675,000 and 675,000 shares of our common stock to SV Special Situations Fund (“SV”). We consummated an additional follow-on financing on November 14, 2007 pursuant to which we issued promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $11 million and 11 million shares of our common stock to SV and two persons affiliated with to SV. Accordingly, in 2007, we issued promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $24,675,000, or the Notes, and 24,675,000 shares of our common stock, or the Shares. During 2008, SV loaned additional funds to the Company to support the operations of its affiliates. On October 20, 2008, SV loaned $16,000 to the Company. On October 23, 2008, SV loaned $150,000 to the Company.

On November 3, 2008, the notes issued were exchanged into new convertible notes pursuant to the terms of an Amended and Restated Note Exchange Agreement. These new notes were issued with a 2.5% coupon (payable in cash or in kind at the option of the Company), no principal amortization requirement and with a final maturity date of December 31, 2009. In kind payments are to be made through the issuance of additional notes with the same terms as the convertible notes.

The Amended and Restated agreement also releases certain collateral held in connection with the Security Agreement. Mr. Stephan A. Weir, former President and CEO, and Mr. Gordon F. Lee, former Chairman and CEO, had pledged all of their shares of our common stock to the collateral agent for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Notes under the original SPA. These shares have since been released to Mr. Weir as part of the renegotiation of the notes with the Noteholders and to Mr. Lee as a part of settlement and restructuring of his retirement contract with the Company. Further, the new consolidated convertible notes grant the Noteholders a warrant to purchase two shares of common stock at $0.01 for each conversion share purchased at the conversion rate of $0.65, which is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances.

2. CCSI

Smart SMS Corp acquired CCSI, our Independent Sales organization (“ISO”) business, in November 2007. As an ISO, CCSI has been engaged in the marketing, sales and servicing of prepaid Visa Debit Cards issued by Visa member banks. CCSI contracts directly with banks to market and sell these debit cards either directly to consumers through its agents or indirectly through sponsoring organizations (“Sponsors”). As of October 1, 2009, CCSI has an agreement in place with one Visa member bank and expects to begin marketing prepaid debit cards to Sponsors. CCSI has had limited operations over the last three years, generating no revenue in 2008 and the first nine months of 2009.

Consumer Based Prepaid Products

The prepaid debit card is typically a credit card-sized piece of plastic encoded with certain consumer information and pre-loaded with a particular monetary value. Unlike credit cards, which draw their value from a line of credit with a bank, or debit cards, which draw their value from a cardholder’s checking account, the value on a prepaid card typically comes from money given to the company that markets and/or issues the card prior to its use. Prepaid cards take many forms, including gift cards that can be used at a specific merchant or location, travel cards that can be used in the same way as travelers’ checks, payroll cards that can be used to access one’s wages and “teen cards” that are marketed to those under 18 years old to access funds their parents load onto the card. CCSI’s services are expected to include developing ready-to-market, semi-customized or customized programs and brands for Sponsors who want to distribute prepaid cards through direct, non-retail channels.

We anticipate that CCSI will develop prepaid products which include creating a customer brand or brand awareness for the card, structuring consumer fees, securing bank approvals, producing marketing materials and creating customer websites. We expect that certain of these services will be performed by CCSI in-house while others are outsourced to third party providers.

Agreement with Member Bank

CCSI entered into an Independent Sales Organization Agreement with a national bank pursuant to which CCSI agreed to market and sell Visa branded debit cards to be issued by the bank to Sponsors. In accordance with this agreement, CCSI became registered in Visa’s agent registration program as an ISO acting on behalf of the bank and is required to comply with all of the Visa U.S.A. Operating Regulations. The bank and our processor agreed to provide CCSI with marketing material support and to provide customer service to debit cardholders. This agreement provides CCSI connectivity to both Visa and Star Networks. It enables CCSI to issue US based debit cards. CCSI is also seeking to enter into similar agreements with other Visa member banks, both domestically and internationally.

CCSI has developed a customer acquisition model that will allow underserved, under-banked and unbanked applicants to qualify for our instant issue VISA prepaid debit cards. These policies have already been approved by the bank and VISA.

Agreement with Card processor

CCSI entered into a card processing agreement to provide processing services associated with CCSI’s prepaid VISA debit card programs and related services. The processing services have now been fully connected with the bank. CCSI’s connectivity with the processor allows for our card programs to have access to a full range of functionality and service that includes patented features. These unique patented functions include SMS command based functions such as the ability to send and receive money, security features such as dynamic CVV code that protects our customers from online and unauthorized card usage. The processor’s platform is current on all certifications and compliance requirements from VISA and the banks.

Employees

As of October 1, 2009, CCSI has 5 employees. Since acquiring CCSI, our employees at Smart and MIT have also been providing support to CCSI. Current plans call for the hiring of full-time and part-time employees for the retail centers beginning in Q4, 2009 as well as up to 2 in house sales representatives at CCSI.

Target Market for General Purpose, Prepaid Debit Cards

The sale and use of general use, prepaid debit cards has increased dramatically over the past five years. According to a report published by the Aite Group, the value of branded and private label prepaid card transactions is expected to amount to $178 billion by 2010, up from $113 billion in 2007.

General purpose, prepaid debit cards most often appeal to “unbanked” customers who cannot qualify for a credit card or bank account or who are otherwise unattractive to banks, such as people who are immigrants, recently divorced, young or have not credit history or very low income.

Competition

The competitive landscape for general use, prepaid debit cards continues to evolve with mergers and acquisitions, company consolidations and new entrants developing and deploying niche market prepaid card solutions with a focus on demographic and ethnic subsets, credit seeking individuals and under and un-banked consumers. The competitive environment has seen a rise in products and companies across all sales channels, including online, retail, non-retail, mass merchant and independent sales operators. The competitive market generally consists of a fragmented collection of association branded prepaid debit card products. The common trait within this market is that virtually all products carry the MasterCard®, Visa®, American Express®, or Discover® brand on the front of the card giving the product category unparalleled payment acceptance. Examples of companies that compete within the space are Green Dot Corporation, Net Spend, One Global Finance, Account Now, E-count and E-Comm Link. Many of these companies share common traits including: well-developed proprietary infrastructure, substantial investment in internal information technology resources, significant financial resources, access to widespread distribution networks, profitability and direct relationships with the card associations, such as MasterCard® and Visa®.

CCSI believes competition will continue to grow both from new entrants to the market, as well as from existing participants such as banks and processors expanding the breadth of their services into the markets currently underserved. It is our belief that competition in the prepaid products and services market is based upon the following factors:

·	Addressing the needs of underserved and un-banked customers;

·	Ease of card reloading;

·	Program flexibility for user-specific needs;

·	Responsiveness to card association demand and requirements;

·	Easy product distribution access and usage (i.e. online, telephone, retail, etc);

·	Prepaid expertise;

·	Brand recognition and geographic presence; and

Price.

The market for companies providing technology solutions to financial services organizations is extremely competitive. As a new entrant into this market, CCSI believes that most of its competitors will have longer operating histories in this segment, larger customer bases, and greater financial resources. CCSI believes that the principal competitive factors affecting the market for technology solutions include product/service functionality, price, operating flexibility and ease-of-use, customer support, and existing customer references. CCSI is still in the process of analyzing whether any of its competitors offer technologies capable of accomplishing solutions which are the same or similar to CCSI’s solutions.

Applicable Laws and Regulations

CCSI, by virtue of its status as a VISA ISO is obliged to follow rules and guidelines outlined in and remain in compliance with VISA’s Prepaid card operations manual. CCSI is also required to self-audit card inventory, policies and procedures as per VISA’s self audit requirements on a semi-annual basis. Finally, CCSI has to stay in compliance with the member bank’s “Know Your Customer” (KYC) policies and procedures.

3. RBA

On December 21, 2007, the Company entered into a term sheet with RBA International, Inc. (RBA) a Washington company to acquire the its wholly owned subsidiary, RBA Financial Systems, Inc. Shortly thereafter, the company decided to acquire RBA instead of RBA Financial Systems, thereby gaining access to all of RBA’s intellectual property. On April 18, 2008, the parties finalized their proposed transaction and entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among Smart, its wholly-owned subsidiary, RBA Acquisition Corp. (“Acquisition Corp.”), RBA (the merged entity) and the stockholders of RBA. According to The Merger Agreement, the Merger was effective as of September 30, 2008. However, for accounting purposes only, the Merger was complete as of July 2009.

The RBA Credit Agreement

Among the various loan documents between RBA and Smart is a Credit Agreement, a Security Agreement and various Promissory Notes (the “Loan Documents”) pursuant to which Smart loaned to RBA over $2.5 million. The Loan Documents remain in effect as noted above, pursuant to the Second Amendment. It was pursuant to these Loan Documents that Smart foreclosed on the secured assets of RBA upon RBA’s failure to repay these loans pursuant to their terms.

The acquired RBA assets include:

·	Interactive Voice Recognition Software (IVR software)

o	The IVR software is the interactive voice response system that facilitates client’s interaction with the account holder’s database using a telephone. This software is Unix-based and uses the Asterisk communications platform and Perl programming language.

·	RBA Java software

o	RBA JAVA is the application programming language that manages access and manipulation of the database and allows access to the database over the internet or through another application.

·	Card System Administration software

o	This is the website application that allows the card administrator to adjust fee schedules, manage user and merchant lists, and set up payment plans.

·	Customer Service Representative Application software

o	This is the website application that allows a bank to manage cardholder accounts.

·	Cardholder Online Banking Application software

o	This is the website application that allows the customer interact with the customer’s database.

·	RBANet Web Interface

o	This is a server side application that provides access to and enrolment of card accounts through a website application.

·	All RBA patents up to the date of the Promissory Note, and all RBA receivables.

History of RBA

RBA was formed in 1994 as an IT consulting company. It became a financial transaction processing company for general purpose and prepaid debit cards issued in the United States. It had also established itself as a bank merchant that licensed and sold various bank products as well as its proprietary card account security features. As a certified processor for Star and Visa® and its member banks, RBA designed and processed prepaid programs that ran on RBA’s customized, proprietary processing platform through which RBA’s associated banks and ISOs could offer customized services to affinity groups, accountholders, and merchants. Through this platform, RBA provided a variety of transaction processing services, including cardholder enrollment, customer support center, value loading, fraud prevention, and cardholder account management and reporting. RBA won second place out of 720 participating international banks and processors in the 2006 Oscards Awards in Paris, France for its patented security technology.

RBA’s Technology

Debit Card Processing Platform

As part of its debit card processing system, RBA used a variety of software and applications and utilities, certain of which are proprietary. These include the RBANet application program interface, the RBA java software, interactive voice recognition (IVR) software, card system administration software, customer service representative applications and cardholder online banking software. In addition, RBA used First Data’s EFS Net and VeriSign’s Secure Commerce Technology. The following technologies were also licensed by RBA for the debit card platform:

STAR/First Data processing services; CIP checks from Early Warning Services; check processing/clearing from Telechek: instant deposit and re-load option from MoneyGram; plastic printing and order fulfillment from Personix and CardUSA, and EDMS provided statement printing and mailing for the cardholders. RBA also used OpenOnline to vet the agents representing RBA and its member banks.

The versatile and secure platform, which provided a multifaceted approach to processing, was covered by a VeriSign Global Server Certificate and had been verified by Visa®. The processing system is unique in that it can be combined with the proprietary card and account solutions (as discussed below) to deliver distinctive features designed to address currently unmet needs of prepaid debit card customers.

Card and Account Security Solutions

RBA created a number of technologies designed to enhance security features for debit cards and web-based applications. These technologies, subject to issued patents or pending patent applications, are designed to permit the consumer to better control the use of his or her debit cards and web-based applications, such as email, online banking websites and online bill payment websites, by being able to reversibly switch on and off authorized access to such cards and websites using his or her cell phone.

a. Card “On/Off” Capability

There are many challenges in managing personal finances in today's world, including, but not limited to card theft and misappropriation of card numbers. Card theft and fraud are, unfortunately, extremely pervasive. It has been said that the cost of card fraud (to cardholders and to card companies alike) may be as high as $500 million per year for the debit card industry and reportedly in the $15-20 billion range for the credit card industry. Accordingly, there is a growing need to provide consumer driven tools that provide the banks more protection, and the consumer with a high level of control over his or her financial accounts, database accounts, and sensitive personal data.

Recently instituted safeguards do not necessarily protect against all possible fraudulent uses of someone's card or account. In the case where a card or card data is stolen, a subsequent on-line or off-line transaction would still be "authorized" unless the owner of the card was able to first notify the issuer/company of the theft, so that the account could be closed. There is still a critical need for improved safety and anti-fraud measures with respect to cards and accounts. With a conventional card, once the card is issued to an account holder and is initially activated, the card is thereafter always activated or “on” until such time as the account holder reports the card lost or stolen. At such time, a card with a new account number must be issued, which can take days or even weeks for the cardholder to receive.

RBA’s patented technology is designed to reduce the likelihood of fraudulent or unauthorized use of a card or account by giving the account holder real-time control over their account(s) to enable or disable authorization processing of transactions and, thereby, effectively turn the card “off” and/or “on” through RBA’s interactive voice response system. By turning a card “on”, only when the cardholder is likely to use the card, fraudulent/unauthorized use of the consumer's card and bank account can be significantly reduced. RBA uses a real-time true two factor authentication process, wherein not only would a user need to know user information and password, but the system requires pre-registered (and linked) cell phone numbers to conduct the transaction. In addition to the security benefits, this technology may also be useful to limit spending on subordinate cards issued under the main account, such as for parents wishing to provide controlled and limited authorization for purchases by their children.

b. Website Access “On/Off” Capability

As the Internet becomes increasingly ubiquitous, consumers are increasingly transacting business electronically, and doing so remotely. Although the convenience of the availability of web-based applications (i.e. online banking, online shopping, etc.) is evident, there are also perils associated with increasing reliance on such applications, such as phishing and hacking in which a non-authorized user may obtain access to usernames and passwords. Accordingly, there is also a need to improve security in the web-based application fields.

RBA’s technology, subject to a pending patent application, is designed to reduce the likelihood of fraudulent or unauthorized access to these web-based applications by giving the account holder the real-time ability to enable or disable processing of their web login credentials through RBA’s interactive voice response system. By providing the account holder with the ability to turn access to these web-based applications “on” and “off”, it is extremely difficult for non-authorized users to compromise application access even if he or she has been able to obtain the account holder’s user name, log-in, password, and other personally identifiable information. RBA uses its true “two factor out-of-band” authentication process to accomplish this.

c. Instant Text Message and Email Notification of Card or Account Activity

RBA's technology provides instant text message and/or email (consumer choice) notification upon all card activity, including purchase, attempted purchase, account transfer, and deposits, and provides a real-time balance each time. Such messages include the dollar amount, the name of the establishment or ATM location, and the day and time of the transaction. Such data residing in text message storage on a cell phone becomes a real-time account statement.

Litigation

Smart SMS Corp. v. Stephan Weir et al.

On July 28, 2009, the Company filed a lawsuit in suit in the Superior Court of California, Los Angeles County, against its former management team, including its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology Officer and General Counsel, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, conversion, breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, interference with business relations, and unjust enrichment. Among the acts that the Company alleges were committed were gross mismanagement of the Company’s finances and operations, falsification of loans and Company documents, theft of Company funds and other property, efforts to destroy evidence of wrongdoing, and efforts to disrupt the Company’s business relationships and ability to carry on business operations.
