            (a) As consideration for the sale of the Specified Assets to the
Purchaser, the Purchaser has agreed to issue 28 million shares ("Shares") of the
Parent's common stock ("Common Stock") to the Seller at the Closing. The Parent
will issue 28 million shares (the "Closing Shares"), which Closing Shares shall

paragraph have been satisfied and all other conditions deemed material by GTEL

period of 90 consecutive days at an approximate altitude of 70,000 feet, without
technical difficulty , (ii) a customer is able to receive both voice and
Internet services at the same time when it uses the "Stratellite service", at a

airship used in the Stratellite service will not exceed $3 million, the cost of
each tracking earth station will not exceed $7 million and that each earth
station (if more than one) will have the ability to cover several deployed
airships at one time. If the cost of any airship or earth station exceeds $3
million or $7 million respectively at the time that the "commercial launch" is
being implemented, the project will not be deemed to be commercially viable and
a "successful commercial launch" will not have occurred.

                  (D) any Liability of the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the
Principal Shareholder or of any Related Party, other than the Designated
Contractual Obligations;

                  (E) any Liability (other than the Designated Contractual
Obligations) to which Parent, the Purchaser or any of the other Indemnitees may
become subject and that arises directly or indirectly from or relates directly
or indirectly to (A) any product produced or sold or any services performed by
or on behalf of the Seller of the Seller Subsidiary, (B) the presence of any
Hazardous Material at any site owned, leased, occupied or controlled by the

deduct any sum that may be owed to any Indemnitee under this Section 9 from any
amount (including all or any portion of the Stock Consideration) otherwise
payable by any Indemnitee to the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the Principal
Shareholder. The withholding and deduction of any such sum shall operate for all
purposes as a complete discharge (to the extent of such sum) of the obligation
to pay the amount from which such sum was withheld and deducted and a release of
the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the Principal Shareholder from further
liability with respect to such obligation to the extent of such setoff. The
exercise of such right of setoff by Parent or the Purchaser in good faith,
whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, will not constitute an
event of default under this Agreement or any of the other Transactional
Agreements.

      Section 9.04 Non-exclusivity of Indemnification Remedies. The
indemnification remedies and other remedies provided in this Section 9 shall not
be deemed to be exclusive. Accordingly, the exercise by any Person of any of its
rights under this Section 9 shall not be deemed to be an election of remedies
and shall not be deemed to prejudice, or to constitute or operate as a waiver
of, any other right or remedy that such Person may be entitled to exercise
(whether under this Agreement, under any other Contract, under any statute, rule
or other Legal Requirement, at common law, in equity or otherwise).

      Section 9.05 Defense Of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion
or commencement by any Person of any claim or Proceeding (whether against Parent
or the Purchaser, against any other Indemnitee or against any other Person) with
respect to which the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the Principal Shareholder
may become obligated to indemnify, hold harmless, compensate or reimburse any
Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9, Parent and the Purchaser shall have the
right, at its election, to designate the Seller to assume the defense of such
claim or Proceeding at the sole expense of the Seller. If Parent or the
Purchaser so elects to designate the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the
Principal Shareholder to assume the defense of any such claim or Proceeding:

            (a) the Seller, Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder shall
proceed to defend such claim or Proceeding in a diligent manner with counsel
satisfy, the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or the Principal Shareholder
satisfactory to Parent and the Purchaser;

            (b) Parent and the Purchaser shall make available to the Seller, the
Seller Subsidiary or the Principal Shareholder any non-privileged documents and
materials in the possession of Parent or the Purchaser that may be necessary to
the defense of such claim or Proceeding;
<PAGE>

            (c) the Seller, Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder shall
keep Parent and the Purchaser informed of all material developments and events
relating to such claim or Proceeding;

            (d) Parent and the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in
the defense of such claim or Proceeding;

            (e) the Seller, Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder shall not
settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Proceeding without the prior written
consent of the Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
and

            (f) Parent and the Purchaser may at any time (notwithstanding the
prior designation of the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder
to assume the defense of such claim or Proceeding) assume the defense of such
claim or Proceeding.

      If Parent and the Purchaser does not elect to designate the Seller, the
Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder to assume the defense of any such
claim or Proceeding (or if, after initially designating the Seller, the Seller
Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder to assume such defense, Parent or the
Purchaser elects to assume such defense), Parent or the Purchaser may proceed
with the defense of such claim or Proceeding on its own. If Parent or the
Purchaser so proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Proceeding on its
own:

                  (A) all expenses relating to the defense of such claim or
Proceeding (whether or not incurred by Parent or the Purchaser) shall be borne
and paid exclusively by the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or Principal
Shareholder;

                  (B) the Seller, the Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder

Subsidiary and Principal Shareholder informed of all material developments and
events relating to such claim or Proceeding; and

                  (D) Parent and the Purchaser shall have the right to settle,
adjust or compromise such claim or Proceeding with the consent of the Seller;
the Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder provided, however, that the
Seller, Seller Subsidiary or Principal Shareholder shall not unreasonably
withhold or delay such consent.

      Section 9.06 Exercise Of Remedies By Indemnitees Other Than Parent or the
Purchaser. No Indemnitee (other than Parent or the Purchaser or any successor
thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification
claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Parent or the
Purchaser (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to
the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other
remedy.

      Section 9.07 Further Actions. From and after the Closing Date, the Seller
shall cooperate with the Purchaser and their affiliates and Representatives, and
shall execute and deliver such documents and take such other actions as the
Purchaser may reasonably request, for the purpose of evidencing the Transactions
and putting the Purchaser in possession and control of all of the Specified
Assets.
<PAGE>

      Section 9.08 Publicity. Unless otherwise permitted by this Agreement, the
Seller, Parent and the Purchaser shall consult with each other before issuing
any press release or otherwise making any public statement or making any other
public (or non-confidential) disclosure (whether or not in response to an
inquiry) regarding the terms of this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated
hereby, and neither shall issue any such press release or make any such
statement or disclosure without the prior written consent of the other (which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by law.
