Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation.
Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Global Investor Services Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Investment Agreements (the “Agreements”) with several accredited investors (the “Investors”) whereby the Investors provided the Company with an aggregate of $37,500 on April 8, 2011, $50,000 on April 15, 2011, $37,500 on April 21, 2011 and $50,000 on April 29, 2011 (the “Funding”) to be used for marketing purposes.

Under the Agreements, the Company is required to make payments to the Investors equal to a percentage of net revenue that varies between 20% to 50% of the Company’s net revenue generated from its marketing program commencing on the 61st day following closing continuing every 30 days through the 26th month following the closing.
 
In the event that the Company has not made payments equal to 50% of the Funding as of the 91st day after the Closing (the “Shortfall”) and each subsequent closing, then the Investor, at its sole option, may convert the Shortfall into shares of common stock of the Company by dividing the Shortfall by the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Option”). The Conversion Price shall be determined by multiplying .50 by the closing bid price as reported by a reliable reporting service on the 91st day following the Closing and each subsequent closing but may not be less than $0.02 per share.  The Conversion Option shall expire upon the earlier of the Company paying the Shortfall in full or the 301st day following the Closing and each subsequent closing.
 
In the event that the Company has not made payments equal to 100% of the Funding as of the 181st day after the Closing (the “Second Shortfall”) and each subsequent closing, then the Investor, at its sole option, may convert the Second Shortfall into shares of common stock of the Company by dividing the Second Shortfall by the Conversion Price (the “Second Conversion Option”). The Conversion Price shall be determined by multiplying .50 by the closing bid price as reported by a reliable reporting service on the 181st day following the Closing and each subsequent closing but may not be less than $0.02 per share.  The Second Conversion Option shall expire upon the earlier of the Company paying the Second Shortfall in full or the 301st day following the Closing and each subsequent closing.
 
The investment was offered and sold to the Investors in a private placement transaction made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and/or Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act. The Investors are accredited investors as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

In addition, the Company compensated HFP Capital Markets LLC for assisting in the sale of the investment by paying it commissions in the amount of $17,500.
