ITEM 3.02      UNREGISTERED SALE OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEEDS.


The following sets forth the information required by Item 701 of Regulation S-B with respect to the unregistered sales of equity securities by Global Casinos, Inc., a Utah corporation (the "Company"), completed on August 15, 2009:



a.

Effective August 15, 2009, the Company issued to Clifford L. Neuman,  the Company’s President and a Director, 77,273 shares of common stock, $.05 par value (the “Common Stock” or “Shares”) pursuant to his cashless exercise of options exercisable to purchase 100,000 shares of common Stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.  For purposes of the cashless exercise, the shares were valued at $0.44 per share, which was equal to 100% of the public trading price of the Common Stock on August 15, 2009 as quoted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board.


b.

The shares were issued exclusively to one person who qualified as an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "Securities Act").    The shares issued were “restricted securities” under the Securities Act.


c.

The Company paid no fees or commissions in connection with the issuance of the Shares in satisfaction of the debt.

 

d.

The sale of the Securities was undertaken without registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act set forth in Sections 4(2) thereunder.  The investor qualified as an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.  In addition, the Securities, which were taken for investment purposes and not for resale, were subject to restrictions on transfer.  We did not engage in any public advertising or general solicitation in connection with this transaction, and we provided the investor with disclosure of all aspects of our business, including providing the investor with our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other financial, business and corporate information.  Based on our investigation, we believe that the accredited investor obtained all information regarding the Company that he requested, received answers to all questions posed and otherwise understood the risks of accepting our Securities for investment purposes.


e.

The issuance of the Shares is described in Item 3.02(a) above.  


f.

The Company received the surrender of 22,737 options in consideration of the cashless exercise.
