PROXY STATEMENT
FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
To Be Held August 24, 2009

General

     This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card are furnished in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Smith Micro Software, Inc. (“Smith Micro,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”), which will be held at the offices of the Company, located at 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656, on Monday, August 24, 2009, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Stockholders of record at the close of business on July 9, 2009, the record date, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof. This Proxy Statement, the enclosed proxy card and the Smith Micro Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 (the “Annual Report”) are being first mailed on or about July 20, 2009 to stockholders of record as of the record date.

Purpose of the Meeting

     The specific proposals to be considered and acted upon at the Annual Meeting are summarized in the accompanying Notice and are described in more detail in this Proxy Statement. We are not aware of any matter to be presented other than those described in this Proxy Statement.

Voting

     Our outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) is the only class of securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Common stockholders of record on July 9, 2009, the record date, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of July 9, 2009, there were 32,408,838 shares of Common Stock outstanding and approximately 241 holders of record, according to information provided by our transfer agent. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum.

     All votes will be tabulated by our inspector of elections for the Annual Meeting who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares held by a broker or other nominee having discretionary power to vote on some matters but not others). Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on proposals presented to the stockholders and will have the same effect as negative votes. In the election of directors, the nominee receiving the highest number of affirmative votes shall be elected; broker non-votes and votes marked “withhold” will not affect the outcome of the election. Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining whether such proposals have been approved.

Proxies

     Properly executed proxies will be voted in the manner specified therein. If no direction is made on the proxies, such properly executed proxies will be voted FOR the election of the nominees named under the caption “Election of Directors” as our directors, and FOR the ratification of the selection of Singer Lewak Greenberg & Goldstein LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2009 fiscal year. You may revoke or change your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting by filing with the Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices at 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656 a notice of revocation or another signed Proxy with a later date. You may also revoke your proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting does not, by itself constitute a revocation of your proxy. Please note that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you will not be able to vote in person at the Annual Meeting unless you have obtained and present a proxy issued in your name from the record holder.

Voting Electronically via the Internet

     If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage firm, you may be eligible to vote your shares electronically over the Internet. A large number of banks and brokerage firms provide eligible stockholders who receive a paper copy of the Annual Report and Proxy Statement the opportunity to vote in this manner. If your bank or brokerage firm allows for this, your voting form will provide instructions for such alternative method of voting. If your voting form does not reference Internet information, please complete and return the paper Proxy in the self-addressed, postage prepaid envelope provided.

Solicitation

     The enclosed proxy is being solicited by our Board of Directors, and Smith Micro will bear the entire cost of solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the proxy card and any additional solicitation materials furnished to the stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward solicitation material to such beneficial owners. We may reimburse such persons for their costs in forwarding the solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. In addition, the original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by Internet or other means by our directors, officers or employees. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services, although we may reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Except as described above, we do not presently intend to solicit proxies other than by mail.

Deadline for Receipt of Stockholder Proposals

     Stockholders may present proposals for action at a future meeting only if they comply with the requirements of the proxy rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and our Bylaws. Stockholder proposals that are intended to be presented at our 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2010 Annual Meeting”) and included in the proxy solicitation materials related to that meeting must be received by us no later than March 22, 2010, which is 120 calendar days prior to the anniversary date of the mailing of this Proxy Statement. Stockholders are also advised to review our Bylaws which contain additional advance notice requirements, including requirements with respect to advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. Under our Bylaws, the deadline for submitting a stockholder proposal is not less than 30 days and no more than 60 days prior to the date of the Annual Meeting, but if less than 40 days’ notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, then the deadline for submitting a stockholder proposal is the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. Under our Bylaws, the deadline for submitting a nomination for a director is not less than 60 days prior to the date of the Annual Meeting. Stockholder proposals and nominations must be in writing and should be addressed to the Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices located at 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656.

     In addition, the proxy solicited by the Board of Directors for the 2010 Annual Meeting will confer discretionary authority to vote on any stockholder proposal presented at that meeting, unless we receive notice of such proposal not later than June 5, 2010, which is 45 calendar days prior to the anniversary date of the mailing of this Proxy Statement. It is recommended that stockholders submitting proposals direct them to our Corporate Secretary and utilize certified mail, return receipt requested in order to provide proof of timely receipt. The Chairman of the Annual Meeting reserves the right to reject, rule out of order, or take other appropriate action with respect to any proposal that does not comply with these and other applicable requirements, including conditions set forth in our Bylaws and conditions established by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     We have not been notified by any stockholder of his or her intent to present a stockholder proposal from the floor at this year’s Annual Meeting. The enclosed proxy grants the proxy holders discretionary authority to vote on any matter properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT ANNUAL MEETING
PROPOSAL 1:
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide for our Board of Directors to be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as is reasonably possible, serving staggered terms that expire in different years. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to the class of directors whose term expires are elected to hold office for a term of three years. The term of one class of directors expires at each annual meeting. The preceding notwithstanding, directors serve until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until they earlier resign, become disqualified or disabled, or are otherwise removed.

     Our Board currently has six directors: Thomas G. Campbell, Samuel Gulko, Ted Hoffman, William C. Keiper, William W. Smith, Jr. and Gregory J. Szabo. The class whose term expires at this Annual Meeting contains two directors. The Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors selected, and the Board of Directors approved, Mr. Campbell and Mr. Hoffman as nominees for election at the Annual Meeting to the class being elected at this meeting. The enclosed proxy will be voted, unless authority is withheld or the proxy is revoked, FOR the election of each nominee for election named below to hold office until the date of our 2012 Annual Meeting or until his successor has been duly elected and qualified or until he earlier resigns, becomes disqualified or disabled, or is otherwise removed. Each returned proxy cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the nominees named on the proxy. In the unanticipated event that a nominee becomes unable or declines to serve at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for a substitute person selected by the Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors and approved by the Board of Directors. Each nominee for election has agreed to serve if elected, and management has no reason to believe that such nominee will be unavailable to serve.

     Stockholders may communicate with members of the Board of Directors by mail addressed to the full Board, a specific member of the Board or to a particular committee of the Board at our principal executive offices located at 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656.

PROPOSAL 2:
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

     On December 8, 2005, our Audit Committee engaged Singer Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP (“Singer Lewak”) as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Audit Committee has selected Singer Lewak as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 and has further directed that the selection of the independent auditors be submitted for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Representatives of Singer Lewak are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

     Stockholder ratification of the selection of Singer Lewak as the Company’s independent auditors is not required by the Company’s Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Board of Directors is submitting the selection of Singer Lewak to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

     Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

     The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, and other services. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policy, pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is subject to a specific budget. In addition, the Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. For each proposed service, the independent registered public accounting firm is required to provide detailed back-up documentation at the time of approval. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. Such a member must report any decisions to the Audit Committee at the next scheduled meeting.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

     This compensation discussion and analysis explains the material elements of the compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid during our last completed fiscal year to each of William W. Smith, Jr., our President and Chief Executive Officer, Andrew C. Schmidt, our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, David P. Sperling, our Vice President and Chief Technical Officer, Jonathan Kahn, our Executive Vice President — Business Operations, Von Cameron, our Executive Vice President - Sales, and Robert Elliott, our Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. These individuals are also referred to herein as our “named executive officers.”

Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy

     The Compensation Committee of our board of directors currently oversees the design and administration of our executive compensation program. Our Compensation Committee’s primary objectives in structuring and administering our executive officer compensation program are to:

	1.		attract, motivate and retain talented and dedicated executive officers;
	2.		tie annual and long-term cash and stock incentives to achievement of measurable corporate and individual performance objectives; and
	3.		reinforce business strategies and objectives for enhanced stockholder value.

     To achieve these goals, our Compensation Committee maintains compensation plans that tie a portion of executives’ overall compensation to key strategic goals such as financial and operational performance, as measured by metrics such as revenue and sales. Our Compensation Committee evaluates individual executive performance along with our Chief Executive Officer (other than with respect to his own performance) as part of the review process. The Committee seeks to establish overall compensation (including cash and equity awards) at levels the Committee believes are roughly comparable with average levels of compensation for executives at other fast-growing technology companies of similar size. The Committee also seeks to maintain internal equity among executives based on their individual roles while setting compensation packages that are necessary to attract experienced executives who can manage a larger, more complex organization. Our Compensation Committee performs at least annually a review of our executive officers’ compensation to determine whether we provide adequate incentives and motivation to our executive officers and whether we adequately compensate our executive officers relative to comparable officers in other similarly situated companies.

     The principal elements of our executive compensation program are base salary, cash bonus awards, long-term equity incentives in the form of stock options and restricted stock, other benefits and perquisites, post-termination severance and acceleration of stock option and restricted stock vesting for certain named executive officers upon termination and/or a change in control. Our other benefits and perquisites consist of life and health insurance benefits and a qualified 401(k) savings plan.

     We view these components of compensation as related but distinct. Although our Compensation Committee does review total compensation, we do not believe that significant compensation derived from one component of compensation should negate or offset compensation from other components. We determine the appropriate level for each compensation component based in part, but not exclusively, on competitive benchmarking consistent with our recruiting and retention goals, our view of internal equity and consistency, and other considerations we deem relevant, such as rewarding extraordinary performance.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

     Our Compensation Committee reviews and approves the compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer. With regard to the compensation paid to each executive officer other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Executive Officer reviews, on an annual basis, the compensation paid to each such executive officer during the past year and submits to the Compensation Committee his recommendations regarding the compensation to be paid to such persons during the next year. Following a review of such recommendations, the Committee will take such action regarding such compensation as it deems appropriate, including approving compensation in an amount the Compensation Committee deems reasonable.

     Management plays a significant role in the compensation-setting process for executive officers, other than the Chief Executive Officer, by:

	•		evaluating employee performance;
	•		recommending business performance targets and establishing objectives; and
	•		recommending salary levels, bonuses and equity-based awards.

     Management also prepares meeting information for most Compensation Committee meetings, and the Chief Executive Officer participates in Committee meetings at the Compensation Committee’s request to provide:

	•		background information regarding our strategic objectives;
	•		his evaluation of the performance of the executive officers; and
	•		compensation recommendations as to executive officers (other than himself).

Benchmarking of Compensation

     The Compensation Committee believes it is important when making its compensation-related decisions to be informed as to current practices of similarly situated companies. As part of establishing compensation levels for 2008, the Compensation Committee informally reviewed third-party surveys and other information collected from public sources relating to compensation levels of executive officers at peer companies. Such review was not used to establish compensation levels, but rather as a market check to ensure that our overall compensation levels (including cash and equity awards) are roughly comparable to average levels of compensation for executives at other fast-growing technology companies of similar size. Historically, the compensation committee has not engaged third party consultants to advise the Compensation Committee on compensation matters.

     In 2008, following the completion of a number of important acquisitions in fiscal 2007 and early 2008, the Compensation Committee engaged a third party consultant to prepare a compensation study to assist the Committee as it seeks to ensure that we are appropriately compensating our executives, given the increased size and complexity of the company. The compensation study peer group consisted of 19 wireless/communications companies (software and hardware) with revenues of between $80 million and $200 million, similar market capitalization and employee size ranges. The peer group consisted of the following companies: Acme Packet; Actuate; Art Technology Group; Aruba Networks; Avici Systems; BroadVision; Captaris; Chordiant Software; Entrust; Interactive Intelligence; Intervoice; Interwoven; Novatel Wireless; Openwave Systems; OPNET Technologies; Sierra Wireless; TeleCommunication Systems; UCN; and Veraz Networks.

     The compensation study focused on three primary aspects of executive compensation; base salary, total target cash compensation, and equity awards. The results of the 2008 benchmark study demonstrated that our executives base salaries fall between the 25th and 50th percentiles as compared to our peers, while total cash compensation, including cash bonuses generally fall below the 25th percentile, and that our executive equity compensation is above the 75th percentile as compared with our peer group. No compensation decisions for fiscal 2008 regarding base salaries were made on the basis of this study. The study was taken into consideration in making grants of restricted stock, as discussed below under “Equity Compensation”.

Base Compensation

     We provide our named executive officers and other executives with base salaries that we believe enable us to hire and retain individuals in a competitive environment and to reward individual performance and contribution to our overall business goals, while taking into account the unique circumstances of our company. We review base salaries for our named executive officers annually and increases are generally based on our performance and individual performance. We also take into account the base compensation that is payable by companies that we believe to be our competitors and by other public companies with which we believe we generally compete for executives.

     The following table sets forth actions taken during fiscal year 2008 with respect to annual base salaries of the named executive officers:

Named Executive Officer		Changes in Annual Base Salary
William W. Smith, Jr.		Increased from $350,000 to $400,000, effective May 2008
Andrew C. Schmidt		Increased from $260,000 to $300,000, effective May 2008
David P. Sperling		Increased from $210,000 to $225,000, effective May 2008
Jonathan Kahn		Increased from $200,000 to $240,000, effective May 2008
Von Cameron		Initial base salary set at $250,000
Robert Elliott		Increased from $160,000 to $180,000, effective May 2008

     The annual base salaries of Messrs. Smith, Schmidt, Sperling, Kahn and Elliott were increased based on the Compensation Committee’s decision to make their salaries more competitive with other technology companies and to recognize the value of their overall services to the company. The Compensation Committee took into account each of their job responsibilities, historical salary levels, the performance of the company, individual contributions, competitive conditions in the marketplace and the relationship of their compensation levels to other officers of Smith Micro Software, and determined that the increases were appropriate to reward performance, ensure retention and maintain appropriate compensation differentials among officers of Smith Micro Software. The actual individual salary adjustments were not objectively determined, but instead reflect the Compensation Committee’s judgment with respect to each officer’s contributions and the other factors cited above. Due to the judgment involved in base salary adjustments, we are not able to specifically attribute individual contributions or changes in job responsibilities to specific salary decisions. The Compensation Committee also carefully considered the input and recommendations of William Smith, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in evaluating the factors that were considered in adjusting base salaries for executive officers (other than himself).

Cash Bonus Awards

     As part of our compensation program and in order to maintain appropriate financial incentives, our executive officers are eligible for cash bonus compensation pursuant to an annual cash bonus plan. Under the plan, cash bonuses are determined and paid each fiscal year on a quarterly basis based upon the achievement of certain performance objectives. Our cash bonus plan is designed to focus our management on achieving key corporate financial objectives, to motivate certain desirable behaviors and to reward achievement of our key corporate financial objectives and individual goals. Under the terms of the bonus plan, the Compensation Committee establishes performance objectives and annual target bonus amounts for each named executive officer. In determining the appropriate level of target bonus for each officer the Compensation Committee considers information provided through independent, third-party surveys and other information collected from public sources for similar positions at peer companies, relative base salary and bonus amounts for each individual and the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer.

     2008 Bonus Plan

     In the first quarter of 2008, the Compensation Committee worked with senior management to establish the annual target bonus amounts and performance objectives under the bonus plan. For each performance objective the committee assigned a relative weighting to provide guidelines for setting actual cash payouts for each executive officer based on a percentage of the individual’s target bonus. The Compensation Committee retained wide discretion to interpret the terms of the bonus plan, including interpreting and determining whether the performance objectives had been met and the amount of cash bonus that may be paid pursuant to the bonus plan.

     Our bonus plan contains performance objectives with a dollar value ascribed to each objective, so that the sum total equals the approved cash bonus target for each named executive officer. In 2008 the objectives (a) for Messrs. Smith, Schmidt and Kahn were (1) revenue achievement and (2) profitability achievement, which were evenly weighted in terms of target cash bonuses; (b) for Messrs. Sperling and Elliott were (1) revenue achievement, (2) profitability achievement and (3) specific performance objectives, which were evenly weighted in terms of target cash bonuses; and (c) for Mr. Cameron was revenue achievement. For each objective, the Compensation Committee applied the percentage by which the objective was achieved (which could exceed 100% in the case of quantitative performance objectives) to the dollar value ascribed to each objective. The dollar values for each objective were then combined to determine the actual cash bonuses paid to each executive.

     For Messrs. Sperling and Elliott, the specific performance objectives which were factors in determining their 2008 cash bonuses related to the successful integration of the Company’s acquisition of the Mobility Solutions Group of PCTEL, Inc., which the Company agreed to acquire in December 2007. As Chief Technical Officer, Mr. Sperling’s specific objective was the successful integration of PCTEL’s technical program and staff. As Chief Marketing Officer, Mr. Elliott’s specific objective was the successful integration of PCTEL’s marketing functions and staff. Performance against these specific objectives was not objectively determined or based on any

quantitative targets. Rather, performance was based on the judgment of the Compensation Committee, after considering the advice and recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer as to whether these objectives were achieved. The Committee determined that these objectives were achieved in the case of both Messrs. Sperling and Elliott. Due to the degree of judgment involved in determining performance of these objectives, we are not able to identify the specific items that played a part in the Committee’s analysis.

     Achievement of the quantitative performance objectives was determined on a quarterly basis based on our financial results of the preceding quarter. The table below outlines the quantitative performance objectives for each executive officer identified above.

(In Thousands)		Q4 2007				Q1 2008				Q2 2008				Q3 2008
Revenue		$	21,191			$	22,788			$	23,200			$	26,545
Adjusted (non-GAAP) Profitability (1)			5,330				4,423				4,233				5,801

     For 2008, based on the achievement of the objectives for our executive officers under our bonus plan, we paid bonuses of $64,281 (103% attained) to Mr. Smith, $46,027 (103% attained) to Mr. Schmidt, $50,515 (105% attained) to Mr. Sperling, $57,506 (96% attained) to Mr. Kahn, $62,885 (108% attained) to Mr. Cameron, and 43,742 (104% attained) to Mr. Elliott. The cash bonuses paid to our chief executive officer accounted for approximately 5.0% of his total compensation in 2008. For our other named executive officers in 2008, their cash bonuses, on average, accounted for 6.0% to 20.6% of their total compensation.

     We believe that the performance objectives for our named executive officers were moderately difficult to achieve and that performance at a high level, while devoting full time and attention to their responsibilities, is required for our named executive officers to earn their respective cash bonuses.

Equity Compensation

     We believe that for growth companies in the technology sector, equity awards are a significant compensation-related motivator in attracting and retaining executive-level employees. Accordingly, we have provided our named executive officers and other executives with long-term equity incentive awards that incentivize those individuals to stay with us for long periods of time, which in turn should provide us with greater stability over such periods than we would experience without such awards. While the majority of our long-term equity compensation awards historically have been in the form of stock options, we provided grants of restricted stock to each of our executive officers in 2008. We felt that granting restricted stock in 2008 provided additional incentive to our executives by providing them with immediate stock ownership, which helped align their interests with those of our stockholders.

     We grant equity compensation to our executive officers and other employees under the 2005 Plan. We account for equity compensation paid to our employees under the rules of SFAS No. 123R, which requires us to estimate and record compensation expense over the vesting period of the award. All equity awards to our employees, including executive officers, and to our directors have been granted and reflected in our consolidated financial statements, based upon the applicable accounting guidance, at fair market value on the grant date.

     Generally, we grant long-term equity awards to our named executive officers upon commencement of their employment, and the terms of those awards typically vest over four years. Additionally, from time to time, we grant subsequent long-term equity awards to our named executive officers based upon a number of factors, including rewarding executives for superior performance, maintaining a sufficient number of unvested long-term equity awards as a means to retain the services of such executives, providing increased motivation to such executives and ensuring that the total long-term equity awards are competitive with those of other companies competing for our named executive officers.

     Mr. Cameron was granted 50,000 shares of restricted stock on the commencement of his employment in April 2008. In May 2008 we granted shares of restricted stock to each of our other named executive officers as follows:

Name		Shares of Restricted Stock
William W. Smith, Jr.			150,000
Andrew C. Schmidt			75,000
David P. Sperling			50,000
Jonathan Kahn			50,000
Robert Elliott			50,000

     All of the above awards vest monthly over a period of four years from the date of grant. In 2008, the Compensation Committee approved grants of restricted stock as a retention tool and due to the Committee’s sense, based in part on the benchmarking study discussed above, that our total cash compensation paid to our named executive officers was likely at the lower end of the market for technology companies of similar size. Differing levels of restricted stock awards were made to executives based on the individuals’ relative duties and responsibilities.

Executive Benefits and Perquisites

     We provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to receive certain perquisites and general health and welfare benefits. We also offer participation in our defined contribution 401(k) plan. We provide a 20% match on all eligible employee contributions to our 401(k) plan. We provide these benefits to create additional incentives for our executives and to remain competitive in the general marketplace for executive talent.

Change in Control and Severance Benefits

     We provide the opportunity for certain of our named executive officers to receive additional compensation or benefits under the severance and change in control provisions contained in their employment agreements. We provide this opportunity to attract and retain an appropriate caliber of talent in key positions. Our severance and change in control provisions for certain of our named executive officers are summarized below in “— Employment Agreements” and “— Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Code Section 162(m)

     It is our policy generally to qualify compensation paid to executive officers for deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 162(m) generally prohibits us from deducting the compensation of officers that exceeds $1,000,000 unless that compensation is based on the achievement of objective performance goals. We believe our 2005 Plan is structured to qualify stock options, restricted share and stock unit awards under such plan as performance-based compensation and to maximize the tax deductibility of such awards. However, we reserve the discretion to pay compensation to our officers that may not be deductible.

2009 Compensation Decisions

     The following table sets forth actions taken during fiscal year 2009 with respect to annual base salaries of the named executive officers:

Named Executive Officer		Changes in Annual Base Salary
William W. Smith, Jr.		Increased from $400,000 to $450,000, effective March 2009
Andrew C. Schmidt		Increased from $300,000 to $337,500, effective March 2009
David P. Sperling		Increased from $225,000 to $235,000, effective March 2009
Jonathan Kahn		Increased from $240,000 to $250,000, effective March 2009
Von Cameron		Initial base salary set at $250,000, no change for 2009
Robert Elliott		Increased from $180,000 to $198,000, effective March 2009

     The annual base salaries of Messrs. Schmidt, Sperling, Kahn and Elliott were increased based on the Compensation Committee’s decision to make their salaries more competitive with other technology companies and to recognize the value of their overall services to the company. The Compensation Committee took into account each of their job responsibilities, historical salary levels, the performance of the company, individual contributions, competitive conditions in the marketplace and the relationship of their compensation levels to other officers of Smith Micro Software, and determined that the increases were appropriate to reward performance, ensure retention and maintain appropriate compensation differentials among officers of Smith Micro Software.

     The following table sets forth the decisions of the Compensation Committee during 2009 with respect to eligibility for a performance-based annual cash bonus by each of the named executive officers:

Named Executive Officer		Changes in Cash Based bonus eligibility
William W. Smith, Jr.		No change, remained at $75,000
Andrew C. Schmidt		No change, remained at $50,000
David P. Sperling		No change, remained at $60,000
Jonathan Kahn		No change, remained at $60,000
Von Cameron		No change, remained at $100,000
Robert Elliott		No change, remained at $50,000

     The decisions set forth above were made consistent with the Board’s compensation philosophy and the findings of our compensation study (discussed above under “Benchmarking of Compensation”), which determined that our total cash based compensation for our executives fell below the 50th percentile compared with our peer group, and that our cash based bonus pool compensation fell below the 25th percentile. Taking into account our levels of cash compensation and the Board’s compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee approved the issuance of new restricted stock grants to our named executive officers, effective May 2009. Mr. Smith received a grant of 150,000 shares, Mr. Schmidt received a grant of 75,000 shares, and Messrs. Sperling, Kahn, and Elliot each received grants of 50,000 shares. Based on our benchmarking study, the Committee determined to maintain a vesting period for these 2009 restricted stock grants of four years. In addition, the Committee instituted a performance-based hurdle required for each executive to earn one half of each total grant. One quarter of each grant will be earned if the Company achieves a specified 2009 net revenues target, and an additional one quarter of each grant will be earned if the Company achieves a specified 2009 gross profit target (determined on a non-GAAP basis, excluding amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation and non-cash tax expense), with a proportionate reduction in each grant if the targets are not fully met. Once performance against these hurdles is determined, the “earned” shares will still be subject to four-year periodic vesting tied to continued service with the Company.

Employment Agreements

     Letter Agreement with Andrew C. Schmidt

     Effective on June 14, 2005 we entered into a letter agreement with Andrew C. Schmidt, our Chief Financial Officer. The agreement provides for an initial base salary of $220,000 per annum and eligibility to receive bonus awards at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the board of directors. Mr. Schmidt is also eligible to participate in any and all plans providing general benefits to our employees, subject to the provisions, rules and regulations applicable to each such plan. Effective March 5, 2009, Mr. Schmidt’s base salary is $337,500.

     Mr. Schmidt’s employment letter agreement also provides that he is eligible to participate in our 2005 Plan. In 2007 Mr. Schmidt received grants of 50,000 shares of restricted stock, which vest ratably over 24 months. In addition, he was granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of stock at an exercise price of $12.55. These options vest over four years. In 2008 Mr. Schmidt received grants of 75,000 shares of restricted stock, which vest ratably over 48 months.

     Mr. Schmidt’s employment may be terminated at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, by Mr. Schmidt or by us. If Mr. Schmidt’s employment is terminated by us without cause within twelve months following a Corporate Transaction (as defined in the agreement), we will provide Mr. Schmidt payment of salary for the six months following the termination of employment.

     The letter agreement states that Mr. Schmidt’s employment is of no set duration.

     Employment Agreement with Jonathan Kahn

     We entered into an employment agreement on July 1, 2005 with Jonathan Kahn in connection with our purchase of Allume Systems, Inc., where Mr. Kahn was President. Mr. Kahn’s employment agreement was in effect during the first six months of 2008 and expired on June 30, 2008. The employment agreement provided for an initial base salary of $200,000 per annum, plus an annual bonus based on the attainment of certain targets. The agreement also provided that Mr. Kahn would be eligible to participate in plans providing general benefits to our employees, subject to the provisions, rules and regulations applicable to each such plan. Effective March 5, 2009, Mr. Kahn’s base salary is $250,000.

     Under the employment agreement which expired on June 30, 2008, Mr. Kahn would have been entitled to certain severance payments if his employment was terminated by us other than for cause (as defined in the agreement) or if Mr. Kahn terminates his employment for good reason following a Change of Control (as defined in the agreement). In this situation, the agreement called for severance payments to Mr. Kahn equal to eighteen months at his then-current base salary and all of Mr. Kahn’s unvested stock options would immediately vest and become exercisable in full within two years of termination.

     Agreement with William W. Smith, Jr.

     In June 2005, we agreed to make to William W. Smith, Jr., Chief Executive Officer, a lifetime payment of $6,000 annually, subject to annual increases of 5%, in connection with his future retirement or resignation from employment. The agreement provides that we may, at our option, discharge our obligations under the agreement by purchasing a single premium annuity for the benefit of Mr. Smith. We estimate that it would cost approximately $150,000 to purchase such an annuity.

     Other than as disclosed above, none of the named executive officers has an employment agreement with us, and the employment of each of the named executive officers may accordingly be terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

     The Compensation Committee believes that change in control agreements are appropriate and serve an important business purpose for the company. The Committee believes that these benefits aid in recruiting and retaining talent in a competitive market. Also, benefits are provided in the event of termination of employment following a change in control, which are intended to motivate executive officers to remain with the company despite the uncertainty and dislocation that arises in the context of change in control situations. The change in control agreements are an important part of our overall compensation objectives, particularly our goal of retaining the best qualified executive officers, and do not affect the decisions made with respect to other compensation elements.

     Mr. Schmidt

     Pursuant to the employment letter agreement with Mr. Schmidt, if his employment is terminated without cause within twelve months following a Corporate Transaction he is entitled to a severance benefit equal to six months base salary, subject to required withholding and payable in accordance with our regular and customary payroll practices. In addition, pursuant to his stock option and restricted stock agreements, he is entitled to accelerated vesting of options and restricted stock in the event of a Corporate Transaction. Assuming the employment of Mr. Schmidt were to be terminated without cause within twelve months following a Corporate Transaction as of December 31, 2008, he would be entitled to an aggregate of $517,771 in change in control benefits, consisting of (i) $150,000 to be paid over the six month period following such termination, subject to required withholding and in accordance with our regular and customary payroll practices, (ii) accelerated vesting of 54,167 outstanding stock options with a value of $0 (based on the number of shares times the December 31, 2008 closing market price for our stock, less the exercise price of the options), and (iii) accelerated vesting of 66,146 shares of restricted stock with a value of $367,771 (based on the number of shares times the December 31, 2008 closing market price for our stock). We are not required to make any cash payments to Mr. Schmidt if his employment is terminated by us for cause or on account of death or disability or by Mr. Schmidt.

     For purposes of Mr. Schmidt’s employment letter agreement, (i) “Corporate Transaction” is defined as any of the following stockholder approved transactions to which we are a party: (a) a merger or consolidation in which securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of our outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons different from the persons holding those securities immediate prior to such transaction, or (b) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets in complete liquidation or dissolution of Smith Micro; and (ii) “cause” is not defined. We gave these benefits to Mr. Schmidt in order to retain his services.

     Mr. Schmidt is bound by the terms of a Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement which survives the termination of his employment. This agreement provides in part that he will not disclose our confidential information to any third party.

     Mr. Smith

     We have an agreement with Mr. Smith pursuant to which we agreed to a lifetime payment of $6,000 annually, subject to annual increases of 5%, in connection with his future retirement or resignation from employment; provided that we may, at our option, discharge our obligations under the agreement by purchasing a single premium annuity for the benefit of Mr. Smith, the estimated cost of which is approximately $150,000. Assuming Mr. Smith’s employment was terminated as of December 31, 2008, and further assuming that we determined to satisfy our obligations under his agreement by purchasing a single premium annuity for the benefit of Mr. Smith, we would have been obligated to spend $150,000 to purchase the annuity.

     Stock Options and Restricted Stock

     Each of our named executive officers holds options and shares of restricted stock that would vest, subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions included in the option agreements and restricted stock agreements, upon a “Corporate Transaction.” For purposes of these agreements, “Corporate Transaction” is defined as either of the following stockholder-approved transactions to which we are a party: (i) a merger or consolidation in which securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of our outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons different from the persons holding those securities immediately prior to such transaction, or (ii) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets in our complete liquidation or dissolution. We provide this benefit in order to properly incent our executives to support a Corporate Transaction that would be deemed beneficial to our shareholders.

     Assuming a Corporate Transaction occurred as of December 31, 2008 and the other conditions included in the options agreements were satisfied, the following individuals would be entitled to accelerated vesting of their outstanding stock options as described in the table below:

Name		Value of accelerated option awards following Change in Control
William W. Smith, Jr.		Immediate vesting of 29,167 options with a value of $17,792 (1).
Andrew C. Schmidt		No options will vest.
David P. Sperling		Immediate vesting of 14,583 options with a value of $8,896 (1).
Jonathan Kahn		No options will vest.
Robert Elliott		Immediate vesting of 14,583 options with a value of $8,896 (1).

     Assuming a Corporate Transaction occurred as of December 31, 2008 and the other conditions included in the restricted stock agreements were satisfied, the following individuals would be entitled to accelerated vesting of the following shares of restricted stock:

Name		Value of accelerated stock awards following Change in Control
William W. Smith, Jr.		Immediate vesting of 136,459 shares with a value of $758,712 (1).
Andrew C. Schmidt		Immediate vesting of 66,146 shares with a value of $367,771 (1).
David P. Sperling		Immediate vesting of 45,209 shares with a value of $251,362 (1).
Jonathan Kahn		Immediate vesting of 45,209 shares with a value of $251,362 (1).
Von Cameron		Immediate vesting of 41,667 shares with a value of $231,669 (1).

Summary of Director Compensation

     Non-employee members of the Board of Directors receive fees of $2,500 quarterly for Board and committee service, and are reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses in connection with service on the Board of Directors. Non-employee members of the Board of Directors are eligible to receive periodic option grants pursuant to the Automatic Option Grant Program in effect under our 2005 Plan and are eligible to receive discretionary awards under the Plan’s Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs.

     Each non-employee director will receive an option grant for 10,000 shares in connection with his or her initial appointment to the Board of Directors. Each such option will have an exercise price per share equal to the closing sale price per share of common stock on the grant date and a maximum term of 10 years measured from the grant date. Each option will be immediately exercisable for all the option shares, but any shares purchased under the option will be subject to repurchase by us, at the option exercise price paid per share, in the event the optionee ceases to serve as a member of the Board of Directors prior to vesting in the option shares. The option shares will vest in a series of four successive equal annual installments over the optionee’s period of service on the Board of Directors, with the first installment to vest upon his or her completion of one year of serving as a member of the Board of Directors measured from the grant date. The option shares will immediately vest in full upon certain changes in control or ownership or upon the optionee’s death or disability while still serving as a member of the Board of Directors.

     At each Annual Meeting of Stockholders, each individual who will continue to serve as a non-employee member of the Board of Directors will receive an additional option grant for 5,000 shares, provided such individual has served on the Board of Directors for at least six months. Each option will have an exercise price per share equal to the closing sale price per share of common stock on the date of the Annual Meeting and a maximum term of 10 years measured from such date, subject to earlier termination upon the optionee’s cessation of service on the Board of Directors. The option will be immediately exercisable for all the option shares, but any shares purchased under the option will be subject to repurchase by us, at the option exercise paid per share, should the optionee stop serving as a member of the Board of Directors prior to the completion of one year of service measured from the grant date. On May 16, 2008, each director received a special discretionary grant of 10,000 shares of Restricted Stock valued at $8.21 per share and vesting in equal installments over the next 12 months.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

     In fiscal 2008, the members of our Compensation Committee were Messrs. Campbell, Hoffman and Keiper, who are all non-employee directors. None of such Committee members (i) was during fiscal 2008 an officer or employee of us or any of our subsidiaries, or (ii) is formerly an officer of us or any of our subsidiaries.

Report of the Compensation Committee

     The Compensation Committee establishes and oversees the design and functioning of our executive compensation program. We have reviewed and discussed the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis with the management of the Company. Based on this review and discussion, we recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

     Since January 1, 2008, there has not been, nor is there currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or are a party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any director, executive officer or beneficial holder of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities or members of such person’s immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions

     Pursuant to the charter of our audit committee, all transactions between us and any of our directors, executive officers or related parties are subject to review by our audit committee.

Board Member Independence

     The Board of Directors has determined that, except for Mr. Smith, all of the members of the Board of Directors are “independent” as independence is defined in the Nasdaq Stock Market qualification standards. Mr. Smith is not considered independent because he is currently employed by the Company.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such person.

     Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from such reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and more than 10% stockholders were met in a timely manner with the exception of one Form 3 and one Form 4, with each Form 4 disclosing one transaction each for Robert Elliott and Von Cameron. In addition, one Form 3 and two Form 4s, with each Form 4 disclosing one transaction, were filed late for Steven Yasbek.

ANNUAL REPORT

     Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2008 fiscal year, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2009, is being mailed along with this Proxy Statement to all stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. The Annual Report is not incorporated into this Proxy Statement and is not considered proxy solicitation material. Stockholders may also obtain a copy of the Annual Report, without charge, by writing to Mr. Robert Elliott, Vice President, at our principal executive offices

located at 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656. We will furnish upon request any exhibits to the Form 10-K upon the payment by the requesting stockholder of our reasonable expenses in furnishing such exhibits. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as certain other reports, proxy statements and other information regarding Smith Micro, are also available on our website at http://www.smithmicro.com or the Securities and Exchange Commission’s public website at http://www.sec.gov.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

     The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

     This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are Company stockholders will be “householding” our proxy materials. A single annual report and proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, you may (1) if you are not a stockholder of record, notify your broker, or (2) if you are a stockholder of record, direct your written request to Investor Relations, Smith Micro Software, Inc., 51 Columbia, Aliso Viejo, California 92656. The Company will promptly deliver, upon request to the address listed above, a separate copy of the annual report and proxy statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered. If you currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at your address and would like to request “householding” of these communications, please contact your broker if you are not a stockholder of record; or contact our Investor Relations department if you are a stockholder of record, using the contact information provided above.

OTHER MATTERS

     We know of no other matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting. If any other matter is properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the proxies will be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their judgment on such matters. Discretionary authority with respect to such other matters is granted by the execution of the enclosed Proxy.
