        Purpose of Marketing
Fund:

        GIS seeks
to create a $300,000 marketing investment fund where the company invests
directly in online webinar marketing campaigns to market and sell its InvestView
investor education products and services. The company has developed and has
successfully implemented a webinar marketing strategy through “Conversionetics”
and a number of online campaigns with Google, Yahoo and other companies that
generate a high number of customer leads which it converts into sales. The
company seeks to expand the number of marketing campaigns to accelerate the
growth of its business.

         

        Marketing Investment in GIS
Campaigns Funding: $300,000

        The
company will begin investing the marketing fund on April 1, 2010. After all the
funds are invested in marketing campaigns, equally in the months of April to
June, 2010, the company will begin to repay the investor through its continuing
monthly sales revenue beginning with July 2010 sales revenue and continuing in
succeeding months until full repayment.

         

        Repayment of Capital and
Investment Return

        Beginning
with the July 2010 sales revenue, the company will set aside 15% of its monthly
sales to repay the principal. On a monthly basis, the company will wire the
funds to the investor’s bank account and will continue to pay the investor until
such a time as the principal capital is fully repaid.

         

        In
addition, after full repayment of principal, the company will pay an investment
return of 100% on the principal in the form of monthly payments. To accomplish
this, the company will set aside 5% of its monthly sales, from all sources, for
this purpose. On a monthly basis, the company will wire the funds to the
investor’s bank account and will continue to pay the investor until such a time
as the 100% return on the principal is paid.

        

        To accelerate its marketing
campaigns, the company proposes three tranches of $100,000 with the first one in
the week of April 1, 2010 and the other two on May 1 and June 1,
2010.
