Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
          On October 30, 2009, Ideation Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Ideation”), entered into an amendment, referred to herein as the fourth amendment, to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Conversion and Share Exchange, dated as of March 31, 2009, as amended, by and among Ideation, ID Arizona Corp., an Arizona corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Ideation (“ID Arizona”), SearchMedia International Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“SM Cayman” or “SearchMedia”), the subsidiaries of SM Cayman, and Shanghai Jingli Advertising Co., Ltd. (“Jingli Shanghai,” and together with SM Cayman and its subsidiaries, the “SearchMedia entities” or “SM entities”), and certain shareholders and warrantholders of SM Cayman, among others, referred to herein as the share exchange agreement. The fourth amendment was entered into with the SM Cayman shareholders’ representatives and amends the share exchange agreement to revise certain provisions of the memorandum and articles of ID Cayman, as defined below, following the closing of the business combination to provide for Co-Chairmen of the board of directors and to eliminate certain rights of the Chairman of the board of directors to cast an additional vote in the event the board of directors becomes deadlocked with respect to any matter. The Co-Chairmen of the board as of the closing were Qinying Liu and Robert Fried. The fourth amendment also made a correction to the number of ordinary shares of SM Cayman into which the preferred shares of SM Cayman would convert pursuant to the preferred conversion. A copy of the fourth amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.5 and is incorporated herein by reference.
          On October 30, 2009, Ideation completed a redomestication that resulted in holders of Ideation securities holding securities in SearchMedia Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ID Cayman” or the “Company”), pursuant to the share exchange agreement. The share exchange agreement provided for two primary transactions: (1) the redomestication of Ideation from a Delaware corporation to a Cayman Islands exempted company and (2) the business combination between ID Cayman and SM Cayman, after which SM Cayman became a wholly owned subsidiary of ID Cayman.
          The redomestication of Ideation involved two steps. First, Ideation effected a merger pursuant to Section 253 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and Section 10-1107 of the Arizona Revised Statutes in which Ideation merged with and into ID Arizona with ID Arizona surviving the merger. Second, after the merger, ID Arizona became a Cayman Islands exempted company pursuant to a conversion and continuation procedure under Arizona and Cayman Islands law.
          Immediately after the redomestication, ID Cayman completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares and warrants of SM Cayman, and SM Cayman security holders, including certain SM Cayman noteholders and warrantholders, received ordinary shares, or securities exercisable or exchangeable for ordinary shares, of ID Cayman.
          As a consequence of the merger of Ideation and ID Arizona and the conversion and continuation of ID Arizona into ID Cayman, ID Cayman succeeded to a number of definitive agreements entered into by Ideation, including the agreements governing the warrants issued by Ideation, among other agreements. Each of these agreements has been previously filed by Ideation as an exhibit to its periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
          In connection with the business combination, ID Cayman entered into a Voting Agreement with certain shareholders and security holders of ID Cayman. A description of the Voting Agreement is contained in the proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 5, 2009 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) under the section titled “Certain Agreements Relating to the Business Combination – Voting Agreement,” which section is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the form of voting agreement is included as Annex F to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
          In connection with the business combination, ID Cayman entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with certain shareholders and warrantholders of ID Cayman and the converting SM Cayman noteholders. A description of the Registration Rights Agreement is contained in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus under the section titled “Certain Agreements Relating to the Business Combination – Registration Rights Agreement,” which section

is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the form of registration rights agreement is included as Annex H to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
          In addition, the following provides an update to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus section titled “Certain Agreements Relating to the Business Combination – Registration Rights Agreement.” All page references below refer to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
    The first sentence on page 139 reads as follows: “At the closing of the business combination, ID Cayman and certain of the SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders will enter into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which such SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders will be entitled to registration rights for any ID Cayman ordinary shares received by them in connection with the business combination (including any ordinary shares issued to them upon exercise of warrants of ID Cayman).”
 
      This sentence is amended and restated in its entirety with the following: “At the closing of the business combination, ID Cayman and certain of the SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders and holders of SM Cayman interim notes will enter into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which such SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders will be entitled to registration rights for any ID Cayman ordinary shares received by them in connection with the business combination (including any ordinary shares issued to them upon exercise of warrants of ID Cayman).”
 
    The third sentence on page 139 reads as follows: “Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders holding at least 50% of the outstanding registrable securities are entitled to demand that ID Cayman register the ordinary shares held by the SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders who have registration rights.”
 
      This sentence is amended and restated in its entirety with the following: “Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders and holders of SM Cayman interim notes holding at least 37% of the outstanding registrable securities are entitled to demand that ID Cayman register the ordinary shares held by the SM Cayman shareholders and warrantholders who have registration rights.”
          A copy of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus is included as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
Completion of the Redomestication
     On October 30, 2009, the redomestication of Ideation from Delaware to the Cayman Islands was completed. As a result of the redomestication:
    Holders of Ideation units received one ID Arizona unit for each Ideation unit held at the time of the merger, which, upon the conversion and continuation of ID Arizona to the Cayman Islands, resulted in such holders holding one ID Cayman unit for each ID Arizona unit held at the time of the conversion.
 
    Holders of Ideation common stock received one share of ID Arizona common stock for each share of Ideation common stock held at the time of the merger, which, upon the conversion and continuation of ID Arizona to the Cayman Islands, resulted in such holders holding one ID Cayman ordinary share for each share of ID Arizona common stock held at the time of the conversion.
 
    Holders of Ideation warrants received one ID Arizona warrant for each Ideation warrant held at the time of the merger, which, upon the conversion and continuation of ID Arizona to the Cayman Islands, resulted in such holders holding one ID Cayman warrant for each ID Arizona warrant held at the time of the conversion.
 
    Holders of the Ideation option to purchase 500,000 units, consisting of 500,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants, received one ID Arizona option to purchase 500,000 units, consisting of 500,000

Table of Contents

      shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants, which, upon the conversion and continuation of ID Arizona to the Cayman Islands, resulted in such holders holding one ID Cayman option to purchase 500,000 units, consisting of 500,000 ordinary shares and 500,000 warrants of ID Cayman.
     The ID Arizona and ID Cayman securities have the same terms as the Ideation securities for which they were exchanged. However, the rights of shareholders under Cayman Islands law may differ from those under Delaware law. A comparison of the rights of stockholders under Delaware and Cayman Islands law is included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus under the section titled “The Redomestication Proposal — Differences of Stockholder Rights,” which section is incorporated herein by reference.
Completion of the Business Combination
          On October 30, 2009, ID Cayman completed the acquisition of all issued and outstanding shares and warrants of SM Cayman, and SM Cayman security holders, including certain SM Cayman noteholders and warrantholders, received ordinary shares or securities exercisable or exchangeable for ordinary shares of ID Cayman. Also, as a result of the business combination:
    After giving effect to conversion of the preferred shares of SM Cayman, at closing, ID Cayman acquired 97,474,068 ordinary shares of SM Cayman, representing 100% of SM Cayman shares in issue.
 
    SM Cayman shareholders received 6,583,149 ordinary shares of ID Cayman.
 
    SM Cayman warrantholders received warrants to purchase 1,519,186 ordinary shares of ID Cayman.
 
    SM Cayman option holders received options to purchase 255,570 ordinary shares of ID Cayman.
 
    SM Cayman holders of restricted shares and restricted share units, which we refer to as restricted share awards, received 261,177 restricted share awards of ID Cayman.
 
    Certain SM Cayman noteholders received 1,712,874 ordinary shares of ID Cayman and warrants to purchase 428,219 ordinary shares of ID Cayman.
          ID Cayman has also agreed to issue to the holders of the outstanding ordinary shares, Series A, Series B and Series C preferred shares and warrants of SM Cayman up to 10,150,352 additional ID Cayman ordinary shares, which we refer to as the earn-out shares, pursuant to an earn-out provision in the share exchange agreement based on the adjusted net income of the combined company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. Holders of any other outstanding preferred shares (if any), share options, or restricted share awards of SM Cayman will not be entitled to receive any of the 10,150,352 earn-out shares, even if these securities are converted into (in the case of preferred shares) or exercised for (in the case of options), ordinary shares of SM Cayman, or vest (in the case of restricted share awards), before the business combination. The 10,150,352 earn-out shares will be issued to the holders of ordinary shares, Series A, Series B and Series C preferred shares and warrants of SM Cayman as follows:
          If ID Cayman’s adjusted net income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 is equal to or greater than $25.7 million, ID Cayman will issue an aggregate number of earn-out shares calculated in accordance with the formula below. If ID Cayman’s adjusted net income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 is equal to or greater than $38.4 million, adjusted net income shall be deemed to be equal to $38.4 million for purposes of the formula.
             
Earn-out Shares Issued =   (2009 adjusted net income — $25.7 million)   ×   10,150,352 shares
    $12.7 million        
          If on or prior to April 15, 2010 a bona fide definitive agreement is executed and the subsequent consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreement results in a change of control of ID Cayman,

Table of Contents

then, regardless of whether the targeted net income threshold has been met, ID Cayman shall issue and deliver all of the earn-out shares to the holders of ordinary shares, Series A, Series B and Series C preferred shares and warrants of SM Cayman, if the change of control is approved by a majority of the independent directors then on the board of directors of ID Cayman or if the acquisition consideration delivered to the shareholders of ID Cayman in the change of control has a value (as determined in good faith by a majority of the independent directors then on the board of directors of ID Cayman) that is equal to at least $11.82 per share on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock split, combinations, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar events). Such earn-out share payments shall be issued and delivered promptly after the occurrence of such change of control.
          At Ideation’s special meeting of stockholders held on October 27, 2009, holders of 37,655 shares of common stock of Ideation elected to convert their shares into a pro rata portion of the trust account established in connection with Ideation’s initial public offering and thereafter maintained by Continental Transfer & Trust Co. (the “Trust Account”). The cash for the payment to the Ideation stockholders electing conversion was funded with funds released from the Trust Account. The balance of the funds held in the Trust Account were released to ID Cayman at the closing of the business combination and will be used for transaction expenses, potential acquisitions and operating capital.
          Upon the closing of the business combination, in exchange for open market purchases which satisfied the “sponsor purchase commitment amount,” as defined in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Frost Gamma Investments Trust was issued warrants to purchase 105,275 ordinary shares of ID Cayman. The number of warrants issued was determined by multiplying the number of ordinary shares purchased during the sponsor purchase commitment period by 0.25.
          Upon the closing of the business combination, taking into account the conversion of Ideation common stock described above, under the treasury method and using the trust liquidation value per share of $7.8815, the shareholders of SM Cayman own an aggregate of 38.9% of the basic and 37.4% of the fully diluted issued and outstanding shares of ID Cayman. Assuming the maximum number of earn-out shares are issued, the shareholders of SM Cayman would own an aggregate of 59.0% of the basic and 55.5% of the fully diluted issued and outstanding shares of ID Cayman.
          On November 2, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the redomestication and business combination, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Comparison of SearchMedia’s Consolidated Results of Operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 Against the six-month period ended June 30, 2008
           Revenues.   Revenues increased from $31.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $44.9 million for six-month period ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to rapid organic growth and acquisitions. Of this $13.6 million increase in revenues, the majority was attributable to the acquisitions and the increased number of contracts entered into with clients. The total number of sales contracts increased from 600 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to 944 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. As a result of the challenging business environment and the market downturn during the period, however, the average revenues per contract decreased from $52,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $47,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.
           Cost of revenues.   Total cost of revenues increased from $17.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $24.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. Costs of revenues for both the periods primarily consisted of leasing cost SearchMedia paid to site owners and managers. The increase of such leasing cost from $14.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $ 21.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 was in line with the increase in revenue.
           Operating expenses.   Total operating expenses decreased from $7.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $6.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009:

Table of Contents

    Sales and marketing expenses.   Sales and marketing expenses decreased from $2.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, to $2.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to decreased promotion and marketing activities in response to the market downturn.
 
    General and administrative expenses.   General and administrative expenses decreased slightly from $4.60 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, to $4.58 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to decreased staff costs and corresponding rental expenses as a result of tighter cost controls.
          Interest expense.   Interest expense decreased substantially from $2.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $1.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to no amortization of discount on the convertible notes incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.
           Income tax expense.   Income tax expense increased from $2.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to $3.4 million for six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The effective tax rate decreased from 51.7% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 to 27.4% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, mainly due to decrease of SM Cayman’s administrative and interest expenses which are not deductible for income tax purposes.
          Net income.   As a result of the foregoing, SearchMedia had a net income of $8.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, compared to a net income of $2.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008.

          After the redomestication and business combination, Ideation intends to reapply to the NYSE Amex in order for the ordinary shares, warrants and units of ID Cayman to maintain their listing on the NYSE Amex.

          As of November 3, 2009, there were, of record, twenty-nine holders of common stock, twelve holders of warrants and one holder of units.
          Ideation has not paid any dividends on its common stock to date and does not intend to pay dividends prior to the completion of a business combination.

1.   Principal activities, significant concentrations and risks, and basis of presentation
 
(a)   Principal activities
 
    SearchMedia International Limited (the “Company”) is a holding company and, through its subsidiary and consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) (collectively the “Group”), is principally engaged in the provision of advertising services using primarily poster and digital frames that are placed inside elevators in residential and commercial buildings, light boxes and outdoor billboards primarily in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).
 
(b)   Significant concentrations and risks
 
    For the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, none of the Group’s customers individually contributed more than 10% of the Group’s advertising service revenues. There is no concentration of cash and bank deposit as of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009.
 
(c)   Basis of presentation
 
    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, the Company’s cash flows used in operating activities were US$4,342, and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, the Company’s cash flows generated from operating activities were US$1,970.

1.   Principal activities, significant concentrations and risks, and basis of presentation (continued)
 
(c)   Basis of presentation (continued)
 
    As discussed in note 5, on September 17, 2008, the Company issued a new promissory note of US$15,000 in exchange for the Notes (see note 5). The Notes were to mature upon the earlier of (i) the closing of a new equity financing by the Company; (ii) the closing of a reverse recapitalization transaction (the “Reverse Recapitalization”) with Ideation Acquisition Corp. (“Ideation”), a special purpose acquisition company, pursuant to a plan of merger, conversion and share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) executed on March 31, 2009; and (iii) the termination of the Share Exchange Agreement. The Reverse Recapitalization was approved by Ideation’s shareholders on October 27, 2009 and closed on October 30, 2009 (the “Closing Date”). Under the terms of the Reverse Recapitalization, US$10,000 of the outstanding new promissory note was converted into ordinary shares of Ideation as of the Closing Date (see note 5) and the remaining outstanding balance of US$5,000 and all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal sum of US$15,000 as of the Closing Date shall be paid in cash to the investor of the new promissory note.
 
    In addition, as discussed in note 4, on March 19, 2009, the Company issued interim notes of US$3,500, which were to mature upon the earlier of (i) the closing of a new equity financing by the Company; and (ii) the closing of the Reverse Recapitalization. The principal amount outstanding under these interim notes as of the Closing Date was also converted into ordinary shares of Ideation.
 
    As discussed in note 2, the Company entered into a number of business acquisitions in 2008, many of which require contingent consideration payable in cash based on the acquirees’ future earnings. The Reverse Recapitalization is intended to provide the Company with the necessary financing to repay these obligations and to fund the operations of its operating VIEs in the PRC. Following the consummation of this transaction, the Company becomes a 100%-owned subsidiary of Ideation, which has been renamed as SearchMedia Holdings Limited.
 
    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2009 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which is the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements.

4.   Short-term borrowings
 
    The Group’s short term borrowings as of June 30, 2009 represent a short-term bank loan of US$542, unsecured promissory notes of US$1,700 and an unsecured loan of US$120 and interim notes of US$3,500.
 
    On March 19, 2009, the Company issued promissory notes to a third party investor, an existing Series A preferred shareholder and certain management personnel of the Company for cash of US$1,750, US$1,500 and US$250, respectively (“Second Interim Notes”). The Second Interim Notes mature at the earlier of (i) the closing of a new equity financing by the Company; (ii) the closing of the Reverse Recapitalization, and (iii) March 31, 2009, but only in the event that the Share Exchange Agreement is not executed as of such date.  The Second Interim Notes bear interest at 12% per annum until its maturity date after which the interest rate of 20% per annum shall take effect. In connection with the Second Interim Notes, the Company, the New Note investor and the Guarantors mutually agreed to extend the Collateral to guarantee the Company’s obligations owed to the Second Interim Notes investors. On March 19, 2009, the Company granted to certain investors of the Second Interim Notes warrants to purchase 442,000 ordinary shares of the Company at an exercise price of US$0.00001 per share. The warrants are exercisable from the issuance date to May 30, 2011.
 
    As discussed in Note 1(c), the Reverse Recapitalization was closed on October 30, 2009, and the principal amount outstanding under these interim notes as of the Closing Date was converted into ordinary shares of Ideation.
 
5.   Promissory notes and warrants
 
    On March 17, 2008, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) to two investors (one being an existing Series A preferred shareholder) for total cash consideration of US$12,000. The Notes bore interest at 12% per annum and matured on September 17, 2008. The investors of the Notes had the right to convert the principal amount of the Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest into the Company’s equity securities issued and sold before maturity (“the Next Equity Financing”) at a conversion price equal to 80% of the Next Equity Financing issue price.
 
    The Company also granted the Notes investors warrants to purchase the Company’s equity securities issued at the Next Equity Financing at an exercise price of 80% of the Next Equity Financing issue price (“Note Warrants”). The Note Warrants had an exercise period of three years commencing March 17, 2008. The number of shares issuable under the Note Warrants is equal to (a) 25% of the original principal amount of the Notes (“Warrant Coverage”), or US$3,000, divided by (b) 80% of the actual purchase price per share of the Next Equity Financing. Since Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares, with an issuance price of US$2.63 per share (see note 9), were the Next Equity Financing, the purchase price used to determine the number of shares issuable under the Note Warrants has been determined to be US$2.104 per share.

5.   Promissory notes and warrants (continued)
 
    The gross proceeds from the issuance the Notes of US$12,000 were first allocated to the fair value of Note Warrants of US$2,100, which was presented within accrued expenses and other payables. The Note Warrants were determined to be a liability at inception pursuant to SFAS 150 “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” because it embodies a conditional obligation that requires the issuer to settle the obligation by transferring a number of its ordinary shares if the holder exercises the Note Warrants and at inception the obligation has a monetary value that is based solely on variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares. The remaining balance of the gross proceeds of US$9,900 was recorded as promissory notes. Total issuance costs of US$349 were initially recognized as a separate asset in the consolidated balance sheet. The discount on convertible notes of US$2,100 and the Notes issuance costs of US$349 was amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method.
 
    Subsequent to initial recognition, the intrinsic value of the contingent beneficial conversion feature of US$5,100, which was measured as of March 17, 2008, was recognized as an additional Notes discount with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital on May 30, 2008, being the date of the triggering event (that is, the issuance of the Next Equity Financing). The additional Notes discount and debt issue costs were fully amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes from May 30, 2008 to September 17, 2008.
 
    For the year ended December 31, 2008, the amortization of discount on the Notes was US$7,200, the interest on the Notes was US$720, and the amortisation of issuance costs was US$349, all of which were included in interest expense. The Note Warrant liability was recorded at its fair value of US$1,618 as of December 31, 2008, with the change in fair value of US$482 recognized in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
    On September 17, 2008, one of the Notes investors converted its Notes with principal sum of US$2,000 and related accrued interest of US$120 into 1,042,995 Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares at a conversion price of US$2.104 per share. On the same date, the other Notes investor cancelled the Notes with principal sum of US10,000 plus accrued interest of US$600 and all the related conversion right in exchange for a new promissory note (the “New Note”) with principal sum of US$15,000. The New Note does not have a conversion right, bears interest at 12% per annum and matured on December 17, 2008. The related intrinsic value of the contingent beneficial conversion feature of US$1,182 at the extinguishment date (that is, September 17, 2008) was charged to additional paid-in capital. A loss on extinguishment of the Notes of US$3,218 was recognized in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
    The principal amount and accrued interest of the New Note was not repaid as of December 17, 2008 and the terms of the New Note were amended through a series of agreements between the New Note investor and the Company. As of December 31, 2008, the interest rate of the New Note remained at 12% per annum and the expiration date of the Note Warrants was extended to December 17, 2013. In connection with the issuance of the New Note, the Company agreed to pledge all of its equity interests (“Collateral”) in Jieli Consulting, Jieli Network, Great Talent and Ad-Icon (collectively as “Guarantors”) to guarantee the Company’s obligations owed to the New Note investor.
 
    On March 12, 2009, the New Note remained unpaid and the New Note investor agreed with the Company (subject to certain conditions as discussed below) to extend the maturity date of the New Note to a New Maturity Date which is defined as the earlier of (i) the closing of a new equity financing by the Company; (ii) the closing of the Reverse Recapitalization pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement; and (iii) the termination of the Share Exchange Agreement.  Further, the effective date for the increase in Warrant Coverage by US$750 for each month that the New Note remains outstanding, pro-rated by reference to the principal sum of the New Note then outstanding after any partial repayment in proportion to the principal sum of the New Note of US$15,000, is postponed to the New Maturity Date while the interest rate of the New Note shall remain at 12% per annum until the New Maturity Date after which an interest rate of 20% per annum shall take effect.
 
    In addition, the terms of the Note Warrants were amended such that (i) the Next Equity Financing shall also include the closing of an acquisition or merger of the Company; (ii) equity securities shall also include securities of the acquiring person in an acquisition; and (iii) the exercise price per share shall be equal to 80% of the price per share (on an as-if-converted basis) paid by the investors or the acquiring person.  The Note Warrants shall be converted into a warrant to purchase ordinary shares of the Special Purpose Acquisition Company’s successor pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement.
 
    On March 28, 2009, the Company’s shareholders and board of directors resolved to amend the exercise price of Note Warrants from US$2.104 per share to US$0.44 per share as a result of the re-pricing of Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares (see note 9).

7.   Income taxes
 
    Cayman Islands
 
    Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, the Company is not subject to tax on its income or capital gains. In addition, upon any payment of dividends by the Company, no withholding tax is imposed.
 
    Peoples’ Republic of China
 
    The Company’s subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs in the PRC are governed by the income tax law of the PRC and file separate income tax returns.
 
    On March 16, 2008, the Fifth Plenary Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress passed the Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (“new tax law”) which became effective on January 1, 2008. According to the new tax law, the enterprise income tax rate for entities other than certain high-tech enterprises or small-scale enterprises that earn “small profit”, as defined in the new tax law, is 25%. In addition, from January 1, 2008, certain enterprises that were previously taxed at preferential rates are subject to a five-year transition period during which the income tax rate will gradually be increased to the unified rate of 25% (the “transition rates”). Accordingly, the income tax rate applicable to the assessable profits of Jieli Consulting and Jingli, is reduced from 33% to 25% effective January 1, 2008. The income tax rate applicable to the assessable profits of Sige, which was previously taxed on a Special Concessionary Tax Rate, is 25% effective January 1, 2008. The income tax transition rates applicable to the assessable profits of Dale, which previously was subject to a preferential tax rate of 15%, are 18%, 20%, 22%, 24%, and 25%, for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 onwards, respectively. The entities acquired by Jingli in 2008 are subject to PRC enterprise income tax at 25% on their assessable profits.
 
    Under the new tax law and related implementation rules, a withholding tax is applied on the gross amount of dividends received by the Company from its PRC subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs after January 1, 2008; however undistributed earnings prior to January 1, 2008 are exempted from withholding tax. The implementation rules provide that the withholding tax rate is 10% or the applicable rate specified in a tax treaty. The Company has not provided for income taxes on accumulated earnings of its PRC subsidiaries as of June 30, 2009 since these earnings are intended to be reinvested indefinitely in the PRC. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of additional taxes that might be payable on such undistributed earnings.
 
    Hong Kong
 
    Ad-Icon and Great Talent are subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a tax rate of 16.5% on their assessable profits for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.

7.   Income taxes (continued)
 
    The realization of the future tax benefits of a deferred tax asset is dependent on future taxable income against which such tax benefits can be applied or utilized and the consideration of the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and any available tax planning strategies. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All available evidence must be considered in the determination of whether sufficient future taxable income will exist since the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax loss carryforwards are utilized. Such evidence includes, but is not limited to, the financial performance of the entities, the market environment in which these entities operate and the length of relevant carryover periods. Sufficient negative evidence, such as cumulative net losses during a three-year period that includes the current year and the prior two years, may require that a valuation allowance be established against the deferred tax assets. Based on Jieli Consulting’s historical operating results and Jieli Consulting’s limited history to reasonably project its future taxable income over the periods during which the tax loss can be utilized, management believes that it is more likely than not that Jieli Consulting will not realize the benefits of the tax loss carryforwards and therefore a full valuation allowance has been provided against its deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009.

9.   Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares
 
    On March 28, 2009, in contemplation of entering into a reverse recapitalization transaction with a Special Purpose Acquisition Company, the Company’s shareholders and board of directors resolved to amend the effective conversion price of the Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares from US$2.63 per share to US$0.55 per share. The re-pricing was necessary for the holders of the Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares, which carry certain anti-dilution provisions and preferred liquidation rights, to support the contemplated transaction. As a result of the amendment of the effective conversion price of Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares, the Company issued additional 18,323,955 Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares to the existing holders of Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares. The change in conversion price does not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements since the new conversion price remains higher than the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares as of the commitment date of the Series C redeemable convertible preferred shares.

10.   Share-based payments
 
    Effective on January 1, 2008, the board of directors and shareholders of the Company approved and adopted the 2008 Share Inventive Plan (the “Share Incentive Plan”) which provides for the granting of share options and restricted share units to the eligible employees of the Group to subscribe for ordinary shares of the Company.
 
(a)   Share options
 
    The terms and conditions of the outstanding share options as of June 30, 2009 are as follows:
                                                         
    No. of                                   Expected    
    options   Grant-date fair value   Aggregate   Expected   Expected   dividend   Risk-free
Grant date   granted   per option   fair value   life (years)   volatility   yield   interest rate
January 2008
    4,880,000     US$ 0.08 to US$0.43     US$ 1,792       7.7 to 10.0       44.69 %     0 %     5.31 %
February 2008
    40,000     US$ 0.15     US$ 6       8.0       58.75 %     0 %     5.02 %
April 2008
    3,020,000     US$ 0.12 to US$0.39     US$ 746       6.5 to 10.0       59.63 %     0 %     5.27 %
July 2008
    900,000     US$ 0.12     US$ 110       8.3 to 8.5       57.77 %     0 %     5.59 %
The Company determined the estimated grant-date fair value of share options based on the Binomial Tree option-pricing model.
The Company has accounted for these options in accordance with SFAS No. 123(revised) “Share-based payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”) by measuring compensation cost based on the grant-date fair value and recognizing the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The amount of compensation cost recognized for these share options was US$350 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, of which US$17, US$20 and US$313 was allocated to cost of revenues, sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses respectively. As of June 30, 2009, unrecognized share-based compensation cost in respect of granted share options amounted to US$655.
The option activity during the six months period ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
                 
            Weighted average   Weighted average
            exercise price per   remaining
    Number of options   share   contractual term
Balance as of January 1, 2008
    8,840,000     US$0.79   8.6 years
Forfeited during the year
    2,095,000     US$0.40   8.6 years
 
               
Balance as of December 31, 2008
    6,745,000     US$0.91   8.7 years
 
               
    None of the outstanding options as of June 30, 2009 was exercisable.
 
(b)   Restricted share units
 
    In January 2008, February 2008 and April 2008, the Company granted restricted share units to certain senior management personnel of the Group under the Share Incentive Plan. The number of restricted share units to which each grantee will receive and the vesting of such units is contingent upon achievement of certain performance goals. The restricted share units contingently vest over a period of 30 months and have a contractual life of 10 years from the date of grant.
 
    Since management believe achievement of the performance goals is probable, the Group recognized compensation cost for these restricted share units of US$350 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, all of which was included in general and administrative expenses. The fair value of the restricted share units was estimated using the Asian option-pricing model and assumes that the performance goals will be achieved. If the performance goals are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any recognized compensation cost will be reversed. The assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the restricted share units are the same as those related to valuation of share options set out in note 10(a).
 
    There is no restricted share unit activity during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009

10.   Share-based payments (continued)
 
    As of June 30, 2009, unrecognized share-based compensation cost in respect of granted restricted share units amounted to US$395, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 11 months.
 
11.   Commitments and contingencies
 
(a)   Operating lease commitments
 
    The Group leases space inside elevators, light boxes and billboards to display the content of its customers’ advertisements, and office premises under operating lease arrangements. These operating leases do not contain provisions for contingent rentals.
 
    Rental expenses under operating leases were allocated to the following expense items:

13.   Subsequent events
 
(a)   Approve Acquisition of SearchMedia International Limted by Ideation Acquisition Corporation Stockholders
 
    On October 30, 2009, the Company was acquired by Ideation, as part of a reverse recapitalization transaction pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement executed on March 31, 2009. Ideation shareholders representing 82.9% of Ideation’s outstanding shares voted to approve the transaction, with fewer than 0.4% of the shares issued in Ideation’s initial public offering electing to convert their shares into cash. Following the consummation of this transaction, the Company is now a 100%-owned subsidiary of Ideation, which has been renamed SearchMedia Holdings Limited, whose common stock, units and warrants trade on the NYSE Amex under the ticker symbols IDI, IDI.U, and IDI.WS, respectively.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements give effect to the transactions described in share exchange agreement dated March 31, 2009, as amended respectively on May 27, 2009, September 8, 2009, September 22, 2009 and October 30, 2009 (the “Transaction”), based on the assumptions and adjustments set forth in the accompanying notes.
     The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2009 is derived from the historical unaudited balance sheets of Ideation as of September 30, 2009 and SearchMedia as of June 30, 2009, giving effect to the Transaction, which is being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as if it had occurred on September 30, 2009.
     The following unaudited pro forma condensed statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 is derived from the historical unaudited statement of operations of Ideation for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and the historical unaudited statement of income of SearchMedia for the nine months ended June 30 2009 giving effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2009. The following unaudited pro forma condensed statement of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 is derived from the respective historical audited statements of income of Ideation and SearchMedia for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, giving effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2008. The historical balance sheet for SearchMedia as of June 30 2009 and the historical statement of income of SearchMedia for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 have not been audited or reviewed by an independent registered public accounting firm.
     The Transaction is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization because it fails to meet the criteria to be considered as a business combination described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”), which is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. Pursuant to SFAS 141R, SearchMedia is considered to be the accounting acquirer because it will obtain control of Ideation as a result of the Transaction. The determination was primarily based on SearchMedia comprising the ongoing operations of the combined entity, the senior management of the combined company and retaining equal voting rights in the combined entity’s board of directors. However, because Ideation, the accounting acquiree, does not meet the definition of a business provided in SFAS 141R, the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS 141R do not apply. The share exchange transaction utilizes the capital structure of Ideation and the assets and liabilities of SearchMedia are recorded at historical cost. Although SearchMedia will be deemed to be the acquiring company for accounting and financial reporting purposes, the legal status of Ideation as the surviving corporation will not change.
     ID Cayman were to issue 6,583,149 shares of Ideation’s common stock to exchange the outstanding ordinary and preferred shares of SearchMedia and issue 1,712,874 shares to certain promissory notes holders of SearchMedia. In addition, ID Cayman shall issue a maximum of 10,150,352 Earn-Out Shares (as defined in the share exchange agreement) to the SearchMedia shareholders based on the combined entity’s FY2009 Adjusted Net Income and warrantholders, will receive Earn-Out Shares if the combined entity’s FY2009 Adjusted Net Income (as defined in the share exchange agreement) exceeds $25.7 million. The final number of Earn-Out Shares to be issued is calculated in accordance with the formula set forth below. If FY2009 Adjusted Net Income equals or exceeds $38.4 million, FY2009 Adjusted Net Income shall be deemed to be equal to $38.4 million for purposes of such formula.
             
Earn-out Shares =   (FY2009 Adjusted Net Income – $25.7 million)   ×   10,150,352 Shares
    $12.7 million        
     The effect of the potential issuance of the Earn-Out Shares to SearchMedia shareholders and warrantholders is not reflected in these pro forma financial statements as the probability of achieving the aforementioned performance target could not be reasonably assessed.

     The Transaction was closed on October 30, 2009. Ideation shareholders representing 82.9% of Ideation’s outstanding shares voted to approve the transaction, with fewer than 0.4% of the shares issued in Ideation’s initial public offering electing to convert their shares into cash. The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements have been prepared based on the actual conversion by the Ideation shareholders.
     We are providing this information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Transaction. The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements described above should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of SearchMedia and Ideation and the related notes thereto included or incorporated by reference in this report. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that may have actually occurred had the Transaction taken place on the dates indicated, or the future financial position or operating results of the combined entity.
     The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are directly attributable to the Transaction, are factually supportable and, in the case of the pro forma income statements, have a recurring impact.
