SMME news - SmartMetric Announces It Has Filed Today "First Amended Complaint For Infringement Of U.S. Patent 6,792,464"
SmartMetric Claims Patent Infringement by Visa and MasterCard
BAY HARBOR, FL, Jun 02, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- SmartMetric, Inc. (OTCBB: SMME) announced it has filed today in United States District Court Case # CV-10-01864JHN(FMOx) First Amended Complaint For Infringement Of U.S. Patent.
Colin Hendrick, SmartMetric CEO, stated: "We believe and allege in our lawsuit that both Visa and MasterCard are infringing on our US patent 6,792,464 (the "464 patent") by selling, offering to sell and using contactless card systems, e.g. Systems like VT's Paywave(TM) and MC's PayPass(TM), that use data cards that when passed near to a reader, establish a connection to a network (the "Systems") that infringe at least claim 1 of the '464 patent.' Our patent was duly and lawfully issued on September 14, 2004 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark office 'System for Automatic Connection to a Network.' By assignment, SmartMetric is the owner of the patent."
In a press release issued on March 19, 2009, MasterCard Worldwide announced "the issuance of the 50 millionth MasterCard(R) PayPass(TM) card or device, as of 4Q 2008, which in the last year more than doubles the number of cards and devices in circulation around the world. This significant PayPass momentum demonstrates not only the demand for simple solutions when it comes to payments, but also the continued secular shift toward electronic payments as validated by recent data that indicates 41 percent of consumers use cash less often today than they did two years ago."

MSHE 5k took out that .001 - .0018 up
"In our opinion, the upside for SmartMetric is compelling assuming that management can effectively
market its products, sign deals, and manufacture the cards fast enough to meet demand. For investors,
shares of SMME are trading at a deep discount to our 12-month target value, which represents a unique
buying opportunity for the speculative investor looking for exposure to the technology sector. In
addition, a settlement or beneficial verdict from its litigation with VISA and MasterCard could mean tens
if not hundreds of millions of dollars for shareholders."
"We calculate a 12-month target average value of $0.84 per share for SMME shares. We are using a 35x
P/E multiple due to the above average revenue growth rate (2011-2014 four-year CAGR of 68.4%) and a
35% discount rate. We caution investors that our pro forma estimates are based on a number of
assumptions and scenarios which may vary materially from actual results. As indicated earlier, while we
are highly confident in the demand, the precise financial metrics may vary from customer to customer and
deal to deal. We will update the 12-month target valuation as deals are announced.
We also believe that this valuation calculation could be significantly low should the Company settle or
receive a successful ruling in its patent infringement litigation against Visa and MasterCard. Although we
have no way to determine what the damages will be, if any, when the litigation is completed. However,
based on prior cases of technology patent infringement, the settlement could reach the hundreds of
millions of dollars level, which would push our 12-month target value well beyond the $1.00 per share
mark."

SNM Global Holdings Completes Sale of LGN Entertainment Group and Announces New Operations and Expanded Business
ORLANDO, FL, May 14, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- SNM Global Holdings (PINKSHEETS: SNMN) announced the completion of the sale of their subsidiary, LGN Entertainment Distribution. The transaction represents a substantial opportunity for the company to not only eliminate significant long-term debt, but also add new assets and operations.
Steve Lane, current President and CEO, has resigned as President and from the Board of Directors and a new Board and Executive Team will soon be announced alongside the commencement of the Company's new 2010 Enhanced Business Plan.
As part of the Company's new operations and expanded business plans for 2010, Mr. Rick Papaleo has sold his controlling interest of the Company to the incoming operational business unit.
"It has been a pleasure serving you as President and Chairman, but with lack of capital and a very tough economic environment, I believe that this is the best move.

SNM Global Holdings will focus its operations and business to provide international emerging markets with alternative energy, and decentralized power production technologies. The company will also provide biotech and healthcare related assets and technology to these markets. The company believes its new and enhanced operational plan will provide significant revenue, equity growth, and serve the betterment of emerging economies.
The company anticipates numerous technology and operational acquisitions and is planning an aggressive media campaign.
The Company will soon announce additional details alongside full operational and financial disclosures.
Shareholders will retain their current ownership. No recapitalization or reverse-split of any kind will occur as part of the Company's new operations. No new stock is being issued as part of the transaction. The control block of stock in the company was purchased in a private transaction.

SmartMetric Plans Significant Penetration of EMV Credit and Debit Payment SmartCard Market
SmartMetric to Manufacture and Distribute EMV SmartCards
BAY HARBOUR, FL, May 10, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- SmartMetric, Inc. (OTCBB: SMME) announced today that the Company plans significant penetration of EMV Credit and Debit payment SmartCard market. SmartMetric believes its EMV compliant card can become the new standard for financial banking cards worldwide.
EMV, which comes from the initial letters of Europay, MasterCard and VISA, is widely becoming the global standard in the migration from magnetic stripe cards to chip based SmartCards. EMV is an interoperability standard developed by the three financial institutions which ensures that all Europay, MasterCard, and VISA branded SmartCards and all SmartCard reading POS terminals and ATM's work together to deliver the highest security level.
Colin Hendrick, SmartMetric CEO, stated, "World banks have rapidly migrated to the new EMV standard. International banks are issuing hybrid credit cards which support both magnetic stripe and chip transactions. The next imminent step will eliminate totally the magnetic stripe from the SmartCards. Today there are over 800 Million EMV compliant credit cards issued globally. Over 9 Million terminals (POS and ATM's) can read our SmartMetric chip based SmartCards and conduct payment transactions. Banks worldwide are migrating to the new standard and have already replaced old magnetic stripe cards throughout Europe, Asia and now in Latin America and Canada.
"Especially in Europe, the EMV adoption has happened very quickly. We believe SmartMetric has the best patented technology to capture significant market share across Europe, South America and the rest of the world as SmartCards rapidly become the de facto standard in international banking."
"As recently announced, we will open up our own manufacturing facility to produce our advanced 'in card' fingerprint scanning and matching technology. The Company also disclosed that it is in discussions with economic development officials. We are in negotiations with Latin American banking entities and anticipate announcing our first Latin American facility shortly. The Smart Card Alliance Latin America (SCALA) research report on EMV migration in Mexico and Brazil forecasts strong growth in EMV/chip cards and terminals. Brazil had issued 341 million EMV/chip cards in 2008, with a forecast of 145 million to be issued in 2009. Mexico had issued 82 million EMV/chip cards in 2008, with a forecast of 17 million for 2009," concluded Mr. Hendrick.
Presently, bank issued SmartCards still require unsafe and security-vulnerable pin codes or passwords for authentication. The SmartMetric biometric fingerprint activated SmartCard provides the next generation of security and the ultimate solution against credit and debit card fraud. The SmartCard will only work after the users fingerprint has been read by the SmartMetric biometric cards internal scanner and reader. The new SmartMetric biometric SmartCard makes the user the key for unlocking and activation of the Credit or ATM/Debit Card.
EMV Credit and Debit Payment
Financial institutions in Europe, Latin America, Asia/Pacific and Canada are issuing contact or dual-interface EMV smart cards for credit and debit payment (commonly referred to as "chip and PIN") or migrating to EMV issuance. Further information on EMV can be found here:

Beyond Commerce, Inc. Announces Letter of Intent to Acquire AdJuice, Inc.
Leading Online Ad Network and Lead Generation Company Brings Unmatched Consumer Products, Programs and Services
HENDERSON, Nev., May 4, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Beyond Commerce, Inc. (www.beyondcommerce.com) (OTC Bulletin Board: BYOC) today announced signing a Letter of Intent to acquire AdJuice, Inc. (www.adjuice.com). The Board of Directors of both companies have approved the acquisition and the transaction is anticipated to close within the next 10 business days.
AdJuice, Inc. is a leading online Advertising Network and Lead Generation company with over 22 million registered users, 700 affiliates and 350 retail clients in six major industries. AdJuice offers sales leads for debt companies, auto warranty companies, auto dealers, banks and insurance companies.
The unique AdJuice operating system and process of generating online consumer requests for services uses its proprietary technology and dedicated call center, providing a premium service that consistently commands some of the highest rates for leads sold in the respective industries. AdJuice is supported by more than $7 million invested in developing the Company's proprietary technology.
"We look forward to joining Beyond Commerce," states Matt Hill, CEO and Founder of AdJuice. "Our company will act as a hub for future acquisitions and we feel this is the right time in the market for great companies and smart people to join forces under one roof to produce unmatched consumer products, programs and services."
"This is just the beginning of what will be a remarkable journey of growth for the company," adds Hill.
Today, the Internet accounts for approximately 20 percent of overall media consumption in the United States; however, advertisers now invest only 7.5 percent of their budget online. Therefore there is tremendous upside potential for marketplace growth as advertisers steadily bridge the gap.
As a result, by 2011, nearly 25 percent of all media consumption will be online, drawing 15 percent of total advertising dollars. The online advertising market is expected to reach $50.3 billion in revenue by 2011 in the U.S. alone; more than doubling 2007 levels and growing an anticipated 24 percent annually (source the Yankee Group) as brands increase online ad expenditures and publishers improve ad targeting, inventory and yield management.
"To capitalize on this vast opportunity, Beyond Commerce has repositioned itself into a media company and a technology e-commerce platform provider," states Beyond Commerce CEO, Robert McNulty. "We are currently in discussions with other media companies as well...in the ad networking, online advertising and local advertising space industries...which are also viewed as potential acquisitions."
"We believe these market segments, individually and collectively, are extremely fragmented," Mr. McNulty concludes, "and they offer tremendous unlimited growth opportunity for a roll-up strategy."

Beyond Commerce, Inc. is a multi-faceted business serving as an e-commerce solution for high traffic web properties, and a media company in the Ad Networking, Online Advertising, Lead Generation and Local advertising marketplace. For more information visit http://www.beyondcommerce.com.
