Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On April 22, 2010, SearchMedia Holdings Limited (the "Company") received a written notice from NYSE Amex LLC (the "Exchange"), indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the Exchange's continued listing criteria set forth in Sections 134 and 1101 of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide because it did not timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In order to maintain its Exchange listing, the Company must submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange by May 6, 2010 advising the Exchange of action it has taken, or will take, that would bring the Company into compliance with the listing standards no later than July 21, 2010. The Corporate Compliance Department of the Exchange will evaluate the plan, and will make a determination as to whether the Company has made a reasonable demonstration of an ability to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by July 21, 2010, in which case the plan will be accepted. If the plan is accepted, the Company will remain listed during the plan period ending July 21, 2010, during which time it will be subject to periodic review to determine whether it is making progress consistent with the plan. If the Company does not submit a plan by May 6, 2010, or submits a plan that is not accepted, the Company will be subject to delisting proceedings.

The Company intends to submit its plan of compliance and file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 within the required time periods.
