GGR who announced that it has entered into binding agreements to sell a minimum of $3.9 million of shares of its common stock together with warrants to purchase additional shares of its common stock in two private placement transactions with a single strategic investor (the "Purchaser").

Under the terms of the first offering, the Company will sell 16,466,639 shares of common stock of the Company, par value US$0.001 (the "Common Stock"). The shares of Common Stock represent 19.9% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company on the date hereof, and shall represent 19.9% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company on the Closing Date. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or before November 21, 2011, subject to customary closing conditions, at which time GeoGlobal will receive the cash proceeds and deliver the securities. The Company is required to file a resale registration statement following the closing that covers the resale by the Purchaser of the Common Stock.

The proceeds of the offering will be used to fund the Company's share, owned through its fully owned subsidiary GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc., in the Israeli Drilling Licenses nos. 348 (Sarah) and 347 (Myra) exploration and development activities.

Under the terms of the second offering, which is subject to stockholder approval, the Company shall issue to the Purchaser a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value US$0.001 which shall represent 33% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, as consideration for an acquisition of such number of ordinary shares, nominal value NIS0.01 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") of equivalent value (the "Share Exchange"). The values of the Common Stock and the Ordinary Shares shall be determined based on the volume weighted average prices ("VWAP") for the Common Stock (on the NYSE Amex) and the Ordinary Shares (on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange) for the twenty-five (25) trading days (on such respective exchanges) ending on November 7, 2011, which the parties agree is US$0.23 for the Common Stock and NIS0.9704 for the Ordinary Shares at a USD/NIS conversion rate of 0.2732179 USD/NIS. The closing of the offering is expected to occur within 10 business days following receipt of Stockholder Approval, at which time GeoGlobal will receive the cash proceeds and deliver the securities.

Upon obtaining Stockholder Approval, the Company shall issue 16,466,639 warrants, exercisable for twelve 12 months following the date that is 6 months following the date of issue ("Warrants") to purchase an additional 16,466,639 shares of common stock at a price of US$0.30. The Company is required to file a resale registration statement following the closing that covers the resale by the Purchaser of the Common Stock and the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants.

Subsequent to obtaining Stockholder Approval, the Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable in whole or in part from time to time until July 31, 2012, to purchase an additional 16,466,639 units ("Units") at a purchase price of US$0.24 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of (i) one share of Common Stock and (ii) a Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, exercisable for 12 months following the date that is six months following the date of issue. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase a share of common stock at a price of US$0.30.
