Item 5.02   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On July 27, 2011, the Board of Directors of Smith Micro Software, Inc. (the “Registrant”) elected Andrew Arno and Gregory Szabo as new directors to fill existing vacancies on the Board. Mr. Arno will serve in the class of directors whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2013, and Mr. Szabo will serve in the class of directors whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2014.
Each of Messrs. Arno and Szabo will serve as members of the Audit Committee and the Mergers and Acquisitions Committee of the Board, and Mr. Arno will also serve as a member of the Nominating Committee of the Board.
Messrs. Arno and Szabo will be compensated in accordance with the Registrant’s standard compensation policy for non-employee directors as described in the Registrant’s most recent Proxy Statement, except that each of the new directors has waived the automatic grant of stock options to purchase 10,000 shares provided in the 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan (the “2005 Plan”). In lieu thereof, the Board approved a special discretionary grant to each of them of 10,000 shares of restricted stock under the 2005 Plan.
Neither of the new directors has been a party to, or has had a direct or indirect material interest in, any transaction with the Registrant during the current or preceding fiscal year, except that Mr. Szabo previously served as a director of the Registrant until April 2010 and received standard director compensation in such capacity.
