Forward Looking Statements
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibits) that are not purely historical facts, including statements regarding Smart Move, Inc.’s beliefs, expectations, intentions or strategies for the future, may be “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding expected financing or funding transactions and any statements identified by forward looking terms such as “may,” “will,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate” or “project.” These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements, including, among others, risks relating to general economic conditions affecting the Company’s operations or the demand for its services and any delay or failure of the Company to complete any funding or financing transaction at levels sufficient to meet its working capital requirements. Smart Move has included a discussion of these and other pertinent risk factors in its Annual Report on Form-KSB for 2007 and in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first, second and third quarters of 2008. Smart Move disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On January 12, 2009, Smart Move, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the material agreement described in Item 2.03, below, and attached as Exhibit 4.1 which is a Bridge Loan Agreement with Thomas P. Grainger by which the Company obtained gross loan proceeds of $300,000. The Company and the Investor also entered into a Debenture in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2.
In accordance with rules of the American Stock Exchange, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Smart Move, Inc. reviewed the terms of the proposed transaction with a related person to determine whether the arrangements would be consistent with the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Based upon the transaction terms and conditions to be applicable under the terms of agreement proposed, the Company’s current need for funding to maintain operations and its delays in securing equity capital at higher targeted levels, the Committee concluded that the transaction terms proposed are fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances, and are in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Committee also noted that the terms were no less favorable to the Company than terms that would be obtainable at the current time by the Company for a comparable transaction in arms’ length dealings negotiated in good faith with unrelated third parties. The Committee took into account in its determination the probability that shares issuable to the investor as compensation for extension of the maturity date would likely become issuable in view of the uncertainty that the Company would be able to complete an equity raise at the level of $8,000,000, and that the terms and conditions would include appropriate provisions confirming the purchaser’s passive investment intent and to ensure no change of control could be triggered by any securities issuances or the exercise of purchase rights under the warrant.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
On January 12, 2009, a Bridge Loan Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit 4.1, was entered into between the Company and Thomas P. Grainger for a short term loan in the principal amount of $300,000 bearing interest at 12% per annum. Although the loan maturity date is specified as February 15, 2009, the agreement specifies automatic extension of the maturity date until June 1, 2009 unless the Company completes one or more new financings aggregating $8,000,000. The loan is secured to the extent of principal and interest not to exceed $245,000 by 800 SmartVault containers on a pro rata and pari passu basis with holders of security in the same assets with respect to $1,255,000 of existing indebtedness. The loan bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum, payable monthly and at maturity. The Company paid a placement agent that is a registered FINRA broker a fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds at the closing of the bridge loan. The terms of the bridge loan include conditional issuances of restricted securities to the lender as described in Item 3.02. The Company and the Investor also entered into a Debenture, a copy of the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Securities
In connection with the bridge loan funding described in Items 1.02 and 2.03 above, and as additional risk-related consideration agreed to be paid to the lender for making the short-term loan on an unsecured basis, the Company issued its secured 12% debenture and also agreed, subject to satisfaction of approval requirements to issue restricted common stock at the maturity date along with warrants to purchase common stock, also constituting restricted securities. The stated Maturity Date of February 15, 2009 will be automatically extended until June 1, 2009 unless an equity raise of at least $8,000,000 occurs, which is currently not expected to occur prior to the latest maturity date. Assuming that the automatic extension to June 1, 2009 will be applicable, on February 15, 2009, the Company will accrue an obligation to issue 5,000,000 shares of its common stock at the final maturity date and will also accrue an obligation to issue restricted common stock to the investor at the final maturity date in the amount of 2,500,000 shares as of each of February 15, March 15, April 15, and May 15, 2009, along with warrants issuable at each such date granting a right to acquire 225% of the restricted common stock at an exercise price equal to 110% of the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of closing or applicable date of vesting of extension consideration shares. The lender is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, as amended, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“the 1933 Act”) and the Company relied upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D, under the Securities Act of 1933. A placement agent fee equal to 6% of the gross bridge loan proceeds was paid by the Company to a registered FINRA broker at the Closing.
The Company and the Investor also entered into a Debenture, a copy of the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2.
