Global Matrechs, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Southridge Partners LP entered into a securities purchase agreement dated October 19, 2004 relating to the private placement of a 2% secured convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 with a maturity of two (2) years (the "Note") and a warrant to purchase 10,000,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.025 per share, which expires in five years (the "Warrant"). The Company granted the initial purchaser a 120-day option to purchase an additional note in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,000,000 on the same terms and conditions as the Note. The Note is convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.02 per share. The holder of the Note may require the Company to repurchase some or all of its Note if the market price of the common stock of the Company falls below $0.03 per share for ten (10) consecutive trading days, at a repurchase price equal to 140% of the principal amount of the Note. The Company expects to receive approximately $225,000 in proceeds after deducting offering expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes.
