Ladies and Gentlemen:

Global ePoint, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby confirms its agreement with Mercator Momentum Fund, LP, Mercator Momentum Fund III, LP, and Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. (collectively, the “Purchasers”) and Mercator Advisory Group, LLC (“MAG”), as set forth below.

1. The Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions herein contained, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of: (a) Fifty-Five Thousand (55,000) shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”), which shall be convertible into shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the formula set forth in the Certificate of Designation further described below, and (b) Three Hundred Thirty Thousand (330,000) warrants, substantially in the form attached hereto at Exhibit A (the “Warrants”), to acquire up to Three Hundred Thirty Thousand (330,000) shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Stock are as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Certificate of Designation”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. The number of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares that any Purchaser may acquire at any time are subject to limitation in the Certificate of Designation and in the Warrants, respectively, so that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of which such Purchaser and all persons affiliated with such Purchaser have beneficial ownership (calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) does not at any time exceed 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock.

The Series A Stock and the Warrants are sometimes herein collectively referred to as the “Securities.” This Agreement and the Certificate of Designation are sometimes herein collectively referred to as the “Transaction Documents.”

The Securities will be offered and sold to the Purchasers without such offers and sales being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated thereunder, the “Securities Act”), in reliance on exemptions therefrom.

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Company has made available (including electronically via the SEC’s EDGAR system) to Purchasers its periodic and current reports, forms, schedules, proxy statements and other documents (including exhibits and all other information incorporated by reference) filed with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Those reports, forms, schedules, statements, documents, filings and amendments that have been filed after March 30, 2004 are collectively referred to as the “Disclosure Documents.” All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included” or “stated” in the Disclosure Documents (or other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules, documents, exhibits and other information which is incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Documents.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Documents, the Company represents and warrants to and agrees with Purchasers and MAG as follows:

(a) The Disclosure Documents did not at the time of filing contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Disclosure Documents and the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, at the time they were filed with the SEC, complied at the time of filing, in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and/or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, as applicable.

(j) The Company and the Subsidiaries own or possess adequate licenses or other rights to use all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights and know-how that are necessary to conduct their businesses as described in the Disclosure Documents. None of the Company or the Subsidiaries has received any written notice of infringement of (or knows of any such infringement of) asserted rights of others with respect to any patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or know-how that, if such assertion of infringement or conflict were sustained, would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(k) Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries possesses all licenses, permits, certificates, consents, orders, approvals and other authorizations from, and has made all declarations and filings with, all federal, state, local and other governmental authorities, all self-regulatory organizations and all courts and other tribunals presently required or necessary to own or lease, as the case may be, and to operate its respective properties and to carry on its respective businesses as now or proposed to be conducted as set forth in the Disclosure Documents (“Permits”), except where the failure to obtain such Permits would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect and none of the Company or the Subsidiaries has received any notice of any proceeding relating to revocation or modification of any such Permit, except as described in the Disclosure Documents and except where such revocation or modification would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(l) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Documents and except as described therein, (i) the Company and the Subsidiaries have not incurred any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent, or entered into any material transactions not in the ordinary course of business or (ii) the Company and the Subsidiaries have not purchased any of their respective outstanding capital stock, or declared, paid or otherwise made any dividend or distribution of any kind on any of their respective capital stock or otherwise (other than, with respect to any of such Subsidiaries, the purchase of capital stock by the Company), (iii) there has not been any material increase in the long-term indebtedness of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, (iv) there has not occurred any event or condition, individually or in the aggregate, that has a Material Adverse Effect, and (v) the Company and the Subsidiaries have not sustained any material loss or interference with respect to their respective businesses or properties from fire, flood, hurricane, earthquake, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or any legal or governmental proceeding.

Except as described in the Disclosure Documents, none of the Company or the Subsidiaries is in default under any of the

contracts described in the Disclosure Documents, has received a notice or claim of any such default or has knowledge of any breach of such contracts by the other party or parties thereto, except for such defaults or breaches as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(o) Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns, except where the failure to so file such returns would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and has paid all taxes shown as due thereon; and other than tax deficiencies which the Company or any Subsidiary is contesting in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, there is no tax deficiency that has been asserted against the Company or any Subsidiary that would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(p) None of the Company or the Subsidiaries is, or immediately after the Closing Date will be, required to register as an “investment company” or a company “controlled by” an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

(q) None of the Company or the Subsidiaries has or, to the knowledge of the Company has any of such entities’ directors, officers, employees, agents or controlling persons, taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed, or that might reasonably be expected, to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock.

(v) Except for a due diligence fee of $275,000 payable to MAG (the “Due Diligence Fee”) and a broker fee of $275,000 payable to Ascendiant Securities, LLC, the Company does not know of any claims for payment, either in the nature of a finder’s fee or financial advisory fee, with respect to the offering of the Securities and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(y) The Company shall not file a registration statement with the SEC to register shares issuable upon conversion of the indebtedness or Prophecy warrants disclosed on Schedule B, Paragraph 5 hereto until such time as all of the Series A Stock has been converted into Common Stock and all of the Warrants have been exercised.

(f) If the Company desires to accept a bona-fide third party offer to purchase equity or convertible debt securities of the Company (excluding debt instruments executed in connection with commercial bank loans or lines of credit) at any time between the

Closing Date and the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, then the Company shall provide the Purchasers with written notice of such third party offer and, for a period of ten (10) days after the Purchasers’ receipt of such notice the Purchasers shall have a right of first refusal, exercisable by providing written notice to the Company, to purchase all of such securities on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s notice.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers and MAG.

(a) Each Purchaser and MAG represents and warrants to the Company that the Securities to be acquired by it hereunder (including the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares that it may acquire upon conversion or exercise thereof, as the case may be) are being acquired for its own account for investment and with no intention of distributing or reselling such Securities (including the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares that it may acquire upon conversion or exercise thereof, as the case may be) or any part thereof or interest therein in any transaction which would be in violation of the securities laws of the United States of America or any State. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall prejudice or otherwise limit a Purchaser’s right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares under an effective registration statement in compliance with Section 5 under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable state securities laws or under an exemption from such registration. By executing this Agreement, each Purchaser further represents that such Purchaser does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity, and is not otherwise acting as part of a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, to sell, transfer or grant participation to any person or entity with respect to any of the Securities.

(b) Each Purchaser and MAG understands that the Securities (including the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares that it may acquire upon conversion or exercise thereof, as the case may be) have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred except (a) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act (and, if requested by the Company, based upon an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company) or pursuant to an effective registration statement in compliance with Section 5 under the Securities Act and (b) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states of the United States and other jurisdictions.

Each Purchaser and MAG agrees to the imprinting, so long as appropriate, of the following legend on the Securities (including the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares that it may acquire upon conversion or exercise thereof, as the case may be):

The shares of stock evidenced by this certificate have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred (“transferred”) in the absence of such registration or an applicable exemption therefrom. In the absence of such registration, such shares may not be transferred unless, if the Company requests, the Company has received a written opinion from counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Company stating that such transfer is being made in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

The legend set forth above may be removed if and when the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares, as the case may be, are disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement in compliance with Section 5 under the Securities Act or in the opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in the area of United States Federal securities laws such legends are no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act. The Series A Stock, the Warrants, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares shall also bear any other legends required by applicable Federal or state securities laws, which legends may be removed when in the opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in the applicable securities laws, the same are no longer required under the applicable requirements of such securities laws. The Company agrees that it will provide each Purchaser, upon request, with a substitute certificate, not bearing such legend at such time as such legend is no longer applicable. Each Purchaser agrees that, in connection with any transfer of the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares by it pursuant to an effective registration statement in compliance with Section 5 under the Securities Act, such Purchaser will comply with all prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Company makes no representation, warranty or agreement as to the availability of any exemption from registration under the Securities Act with respect to any resale of the Series A Stock, the Warrants, the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares.

(c) Each Purchaser and MAG is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act. Neither Purchaser nor MAG learned of the opportunity to acquire Securities or any other security issuable by the Company through any form of general advertising or public solicitation.

(d) Each Purchaser and MAG represents and warrants to the Company that it has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, having been represented by counsel, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(e) Each Purchaser and MAG represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the purchase of the Securities to be purchased by it has been duly and properly authorized and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it or on its behalf and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity; (ii) the purchase of the Securities to be purchased by it does not conflict with or violate its charter, by-laws or any law, regulation or court order applicable to it; and (iii) the purchase of the Securities to be purchased by it does not impose any penalty or other onerous condition on the Purchaser under or pursuant to any applicable law or governmental regulation.

(f) Each Purchaser and MAG represents and warrants to the Company that neither it nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, members, or controlling persons has taken, directly or indirectly, any actions designed, or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock.

(g) Each Purchaser and MAG acknowledges it or its representatives have reviewed the Disclosure Documents and further acknowledges that it or its representatives have been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Securities; (ii) access to information about the Company and the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment in the Securities; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information which the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to verify the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in the Disclosure Documents.

(h) Each Purchaser and MAG represents and warrants to the Company that it has based its investment decision solely upon the information contained in the Disclosure Documents and such other information as may have been provided to it or its representatives by the Company in response to their inquiries, and has not based its investment decision on any research or other report regarding the Company prepared by any third party (“Third Party Reports”). Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Company does not endorse any Third Party Reports and (ii) its actual results may differ materially from those projected in any Third Party Report.

(i) Each Purchaser and MAG understands and acknowledges that (i) any forward-looking information included in the Disclosure Documents supplied to Purchaser by the Company or its management is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those risks and uncertainties set forth in the Disclosure Documents; and (ii) the Company’s actual results may differ materially from those projected by the Company or its management in such forward-looking information.

(j) Each Purchaser and MAG understands and acknowledges that (i) the Securities are offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and (ii) the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and that the Company and its counsel will rely upon, the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations and Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.

6. Covenants of Purchasers Not to Short Stock. Purchasers, on behalf of themselves and their affiliates, hereby covenant and agree not to, directly or indirectly, offer to “short sell”, contract to “short sell” or otherwise “short sell” the securities of the Company, including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock that will be received as a result of the conversion of the Series A Stock or the exercise of the Warrants.

7. Registration. Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement (the “Registration Statement”) covering the resale of the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Stock and the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”), as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D. Company shall use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 70 days after filing.

8. Event of Default. If an Event of Default (as defined below) occurs and remains uncured for a period of 5 days, the Purchasers and MAG shall have the right to exercise any or all of the rights given to the Purchasers and MAG relating to the Securities, as further described in the Certificate of Designation. In addition, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to ninety percent (90%) of the Conversion Price then in effect, subject to the Floor Price, as those terms are defined in the Certificate of Designation.

The Holder need not provide and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
