Operational Funding Deal Benefits Smart Chip Technologies

LAS VEGAS, NV AND TCI—April 10, 2006—Smart Chip Technologies (OTC:SCTN) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Phoenix Technology Holdings Incorporated ("Phoenix").  Phoenix will fund the operational costs required to deploy the SCTN technology commercially by paying costs including hosting, development, sales, and client implementation.  Airos Group and other SCTN debt holders are in the process of assigning approximately US$10M of their existing debt to Phoenix in exchange for an equity position in Phoenix.

 

In exchange for an exclusive, performance-based agreement with SCTN, Phoenix contracted to pay SCTN a fixed percentage of SCTN-related revenue, stop interest accrual on the SCTN debt, and forgive the SCTN debt after generating US$10M in revenue to SCTN.  The agreement will allow SCTN to stop accruing debt, reduce the ongoing dilution of stock, and get funding indirectly to supplement existing recurring revenues.
