As of the Record Date, there were 19,139,365 shares outstanding of SGRP's common stock, $0.01 par value (the "SGRP Common Stock"), and 554,402 shares outstanding of SGRP's series "A" preferred stock, $0.01 par value (the "SGRP Preferred Stock"). At the 2009 Annual Meeting, Record Date stockholders holding 15,921,753 shares (approximately 83.2%) of the SGRP Common Stock and 554,402 shares (100%) of the SGRP Preferred Stock were present in person or by proxy. Each such stockholder was entitled to one vote for each share of the SGRP Common Stock or SGRP Preferred Stock held by such stockholder on the Record Date, and the holders of the SGRP Common Stock and SGRP Preferred Stock voted together, respecting the election of directors and the other proposals presented to them at the 2009 Annual Meeting.

SGRP's stockholders approved the Repricing Amendment to the 2008 Stock Compensation Plan.

Although the stockholder notice and proxy materials permitted certain other matters to be considered by the stockholders at the 2009 Annual Meeting, no other matters were voted on by the stockholders.

(b) Stockholder Approval of Repricing Amendment

At the 2009 Annual Meeting, the stockholders of SGRP approved the adoption of the proposed amendment to SGRP's existing 2008 Stock Compensation Plan (as amended, the "2008 Plan") adding a new Section 12(a) thereto (the "Repricing Amendment"), as such approval is more fully described in Item 8.01(a), above. For descriptions of the 2008 Plan, the Repricing Amendment and the reasons for such amendment, see "Proposal 3 - Approval of the Adoption of the Repricing Amendment to the 2008 Stock Compensation Plan" (pages 4 & 5) and "Stock Options and Purchase Plans" (pages 17 &18) in SGRP's Proxy Statement for the 2009 Annual Meeting, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2009.

The Repricing Amendment gives SGRP's Compensation Committee the full authority and complete flexibility from time to time to designate and modify (in its discretion) one or more of the outstanding awards (including their exercise and base prices and other components and terms) to (among other things) restore their intended values and incentives to their holders. However, the exercise price, base value or similar component (if equal to SGRP's full stock price at issuance) of any award cannot be lowered to an amount that is less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 2008 Plan) on the date of the applicable modification, and no modification can adversely affect an awardee's rights or obligations under an award without the awardee's consent. No further consent of SGRP's stockholders is required for any repricing or other modification of any award under the Repricing Amendment. The Repricing Amendment applies to all outstanding options and other awards as more fully described in the Repricing Amendment, including those previously issued under predecessor plans.

This description of the Repricing Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such amendment, which is set forth in Section 12(a) of the amended 2008 Plan attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Report"), and which Exhibit is incorporated herein by reference. Exhibit 10.1 to this Report amends, restates and completely replaces the prior version of the 2008 Plan incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.1 in SGRP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2009.
