Baez Building, 2nd Floor Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic We Are Not Asking You for a Proxy and You Are Requested Not To Send Us a Proxy This Information Statement is furnished by the Board of Directors of FreeStar Technology Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Company"), to the holders of record at the close of business on August 20, 2004 ("Record Date") of the Company's outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), that were not solicited by the Company. The Company's Board of Directors unanimously approved a proposal to decrease the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company (also known as a reverse stock split) by the ratio of seven (7) existing shares of Common Stock for each new one (1) share of Common Stock without a change in the authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company. The Company has received the consent of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for the Company for this action. The reverse stock split will not be affected until a date that is at least twenty days after the filing and mailing of this Information Statement. This Information Statement will be mailed on or about October 11, 2004 to the Company's stockholders of record who have not been solicited for their consent of this corporate action. The cost of preparing, assembling and mailing this Information Statement is being borne by the Company. VOTING SECURITIES The record date of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote on the Request for Written Consent was the close of business on August 20, 2004 ("Record Date"). On such date, the outstanding stock of the Company consisted of 479,224,252 shares of Common Stock, and preferred stock, as follows: 1,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (not presently convertible into shares of common stock, and 2,500,000 shares of Series B preferred stock (each share of which is presently convertible into twelve (12) shares of Common Stock. Each holder of Common Stock was entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock held by such shareholder, and each holder of Series A and Series B preferred stock is entitled to twelve (12) votes for each share of preferred stock held by such shareholder with regard to the Written Consent; there was no cumulative voting right on any shares. Votes withheld and abstentions, as well as broker non-votes, were not voted. The signatures on the Request for Written Consent of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding on the record date constituted approval of the action to be taken by the Company. Pursuant to applicable Nevada law, there are no dissenter's rights relating to the matters to be voted on. STOCK OWNERSHIP The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of the Common Stock as of August 20, 2004 (479,224,252 issued and outstanding; also, there is outstanding 1,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock, each share of which is convertible into 12 shares of common stock upon the attainment of certain financial goals by the Registrant (which have not occurred), and 2,500,000 shares of Series B preferred stock, each share of which is currently convertible into 12 shares of common stock) by (i) all stockholders known to the Registrant to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of the outstanding stock; and (ii) all directors, executive officers, and key employees of the Registrant, individually and as a group: Title of Name and Amount of Percent of Class Address of Beneficial Class (2) Beneficial Owner Ownership (1) Common Stock Carl Hessel 85,000,000 (3) 15.65% 9 Rue de Commerce P.O.

DECREASE IN ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK Description of Securities. (a) Shareholder Rights. Common Stock. The authorized capital of the Company currently consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. The holders of Common Stock: - have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the board of directors of the Company; - are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution upon winding up of the affairs of the Company; and - are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all meetings of shareholders. The shares of Common Stock do not have any of the following rights: - special voting rights; - preference as to dividends or interest; - preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of shares; - preference upon liquidation; or - any other special rights or preferences. In addition, the shares of Common Stock are not convertible into any other security. There are no restrictions on dividends under any loan other financing arrangements or otherwise. Preferred Stock. The authorized capital stock of the Company also includes 1,000,000 shares of series A convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001, and 4,000,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001. The Series A preferred stock is convertible into shares of common stock according to the following schedule: At any time during or after the expiration of the 12th month following the issuance of the preferred stock, the holder thereof shall surrender the certificate and receive 12 shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock which was surrendered; provided, however, that the number of shares converted during the 12th month following the issuance of the preferred stock shall not exceed 33% of the number of shares evidenced by the certificate presented and further providing that the holder thereof can certify that The Company has made a net profit before taxes of $1,000,000. Then, on each 12-month anniversary date, again on certification of before tax profits of at least $1,000,000, another 1/3rd of the preferred shares will convert to common until all of the preferred stock has been converted. The Series B preferred stock is convertible into shares of common stock at the ratio of 12 to 1, with no restrictions. The holders of record of the preferred stock are entitled to all of the voting rights, including the right to vote in person or by proxy, on any matters, questions, proposals or propositions whatsoever that may properly come before the shareholders of the Company at a meeting at which holders of the Company's Common Stock are entitled to vote or with respect to all written consents sought by the Company from its shareholders including the holders of the Company's Common Stock. The holders of record of such preferred stock will be entitled 12 votes for each preferred share held. In respect of all matters concerning the voting rights, preferred stock and the common stock shall vote as a single class. (b) Non-Cumulative Voting. The holders of shares of common stock of the company do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of the company's directors. (c) Dividends. The Company does not currently intend to pay cash dividends. Because the Company does not intend to make cash distributions, potential shareholders would need to sell their shares to realize a return on their investment. There can be no assurances of the projected values of the shares, or can there be any guarantees of the success of the Company. A distribution of revenues will be made only when, in the judgment of the Company's board of directors, it is in the best interest of its stockholders to do so. The board of directors will review, among other things, the financial status of the company and any future cash needs of the Company in making its decision. (d) Transfer Agent. The Company uses the services of First American Stock Transfer, 706 East Bell Road, Suite 202, Phoenix, Arizona 85022, as transfer agent and registrar. Decrease in Issued and Outstanding Shares (Reverse Stock Split). The Company intends to decrease the issued and outstanding Common Stock by the ratio of seven (7) existing shares of Common Stock for each new one (1) share of Common Stock without a change in the authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company (this is also known as a reverse stock split). The Company must provide the Over the Counter Bulletin Board at least ten (10) calendar days advance notice of the effective date of this reverse stock split in compliance with Rule 10b-17 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company sought approval for this reverse stock split because it believes its shareholders would benefit from a capital structure more appropriate for a company of its operational and financial status. The Company has refined its focus, set new objectives to enhance shareholders' value and hopes that a reverse stock split, which should result in a higher price per share, and corresponding lower number of total shares issued and outstanding at the time of implementation, should help to increase the marketability of its stock to potential new investors and its ability to attract institutional investors to hold its shares, while decreasing the volatility of its stock price. The Company believes that these changes will help to better position the Company to capture new growth opportunities and enable it to execute its business plans more effectively. One affect of a reverse stock split is to increase the number of authorized, but unissed shares of Common Stock. One effect of the existence of authorized but unissued capital stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of the Company's management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in the Company's best interests, such shares could be issued by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent, or render more difficult or costly, completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquiror or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise. Prior to Reverse After Reverse Number of Outstanding Shares (as of August 20, 2004) 479,224,252 68,460,607 (1) Shares Unreserved and Authorized for Issuance 20,775,748 431,539,393 (1) Total Amount of Authorized Shares 500,000,000 500,000,000 (1) These numbers are an approximation since rounding may cause these numbers to change slightly. There are no current provisions of the Company's articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other contractual arrangements that have material anti-takeover impacts. The Company does not have any current plans, proposals, or arrangements to propose any amendments to the articles of incorporation or bylaws that would have a material anti-takeover effect. Another affect of a reverse stock split is that any Company shareholders that hold six or fewer shares will no longer be shareholders of the Company. In addition, any fractional interests in connection with the payment of this reverse split will be rounded up by the Company's transfer agent. By order of the Board of Directors September 28, 2004 /s/ Ciaran Egan Ciaran Egan, Secretary
