SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE


 


This settlement agreement (“Agreement”)
is entered into as of December 31, 2012 by and between Brio Capital, L.P. (“Brio”) and Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd.,
on the one hand, and World Surveillance Group Inc., formerly Sanswire Corp. and Globetel Communications Corp. (hereafter, “WSGI”)
and Glenn D. Estrella (“Estrella” and, with WSGI, the “WSGI Parties”), on the other hand. Brio,
Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd. and the WSGI Parties are collectively referred to as the “Parties.”


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, on or about March 28,
2011, Brio filed a complaint (“Complaint”) against the WSGI Parties in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
commencing case number 650830/2011 (hereafter, the “Action”). On December 21, 2011, the Court granted Brio’s
motion for summary judgment on Brio’s breach of contract claim (the “MSJ Order”). The Parties proceeded to litigate
the Action until December 21, 2012, when they reached this settlement in principal.


 


WHEREAS, in response to the
MSJ Order, WSGI issued to Brio 6,215,543 shares of WSGI stock at the end of January 2012. Separately, WSGI and Brio entered into
a settlement agreement on February 21, 2012 resolving only the dispute with respect to attorneys’ fees due to Brio under
the MSJ Order. Under that agreement, WSGI agreed to pay Brio $57,661.25 in twelve monthly installments, of which WSGI continues
to owe $4,805.15 on February 1, 2013, the last payment due under the February 21, 2012 settlement of such issues. If that payment
is not made, Brio has the right to an order awarding $60,000 in attorneys’ fees, less payments actually received, among other
things. The share issuance and attorney fee settlement are not affected by this Settlement Agreement and none of the obligations
thereunder are released by this Agreement (the “Unaffected Rights”).


 




    	1



    	 



    

 


WHEREAS, the Action included
claims by Brio against the WSGI Parties for compensatory damages based on the alleged wrongful delay in the issuance of shares
under Brio’s Warrant Agreement and for punitive damages based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duties, among other claims.
The WSGI Parties dispute such claims and contend that Brio is not entitled to any further relief.


 


WHEREAS, the Parties deny each
and every allegation of improper or unlawful statements or conduct alleged against them by the other Parties in the Action; and
the Parties deny liability arising from or in connection with any of such allegations or otherwise.


 


WHEREAS,
the Parties desire to settle the claims that were and could have been asserted in the Action and have engaged in arms’ length
negotiations, with each Party having been represented by counsel, in a joint effort to settle the Action; and


 


WHEREAS, the Parties desire
to settle the Action on the terms stated herein, subject to approval of the Court of this settlement pursuant to Section 3(a)(10)
of the Securities Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. § 77c(a)(10) (1976)) (hereafter, “Section 3(a)(10)”);


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual covenants and agreements, and other good and valuable consideration provided for herein, the sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:


 


1.          Exchange
of Settlement Documents.


 


a)         On
or about December 31, 2012, each Party shall deliver via overnight courier, fax or email to the other an executed scanned copy
of this Agreement, and on or about December 31, 2012 shall have deposited an original of such Agreement in the mail to counsel
for the other Party.


 




    	2



    	 



    

 


b)         On
or about December 31, 2012, the WSGI Parties shall deliver via overnight courier, fax or email to Corrigan & Morris LLP, an
executed scanned copy of the Stipulated Judgment setting forth an award in favor of Brio and against the WSGI Parties of $400,000,
fully executed and in the form attached hereto at Exhibit 1 (the “Stipulated Judgment”). On or about December
31, 2012, WSGI shall have deposited an original of such Stipulated Judgment in the mail to Corrigan & Morris LLP. Within 10
days after the final share distribution under paragraph 3 hereof is made, if WSGI has fully complied with all of its obligations
hereunder, Brio will return to the WSGI Parties or destroy all copies of the Stipulated Judgment.


 


c)         Within
fifteen (15) business days of receipt by counsel for the WSGI Parties of this Settlement Agreement executed by all Parties, the
Parties shall jointly file a Motion to Approve Settlement Agreement under Section 3(a)(10), and set the hearing thereon at the
earliest time practical on standard notice to obtain the Court’s order on the proposed attached order annexed hereto as Exhibit
2. All Parties will support the granting of that motion. If the motion is denied or not timely approved (within 120 days of
filing), this Agreement shall be null and void. Brio shall prepare the joint motion, and WSGI shall promptly cooperate with all
aspects of the filing and hearing to seek approval of such motion. The Parties shall also ask the Court to suspend all pre-trial
deadlines for the number of days between December 21, 2012 and the date the Court resolves the Settlement Motion, so that Party’s
litigation rights are not prejudiced in the event the Court denies the Settlement Motion.


 




    	3



    	 



    

 


d)         In
the event that the motion set forth in Section 1(c) is granted, Brio shall execute and deliver within seven (7) days to Ledwith
& Atkinson a Stipulation of Discontinuance which shall be held in escrow by Ledwith & Atkinson until the final payment
of shares as set forth herein is made.


 


2.          Forbearance
Period. Brio agrees to hold the Stipulated Judgment and not to file or otherwise enforce the Stipulated Judgment during the
“Forbearance Period.” The Forbearance Period shall begin concurrently upon execution of this Settlement Agreement and
shall end if and only in the event that WSGI fails to comply with the share issuance requirements set forth in Section 3, below,
and only after notice and the passage of the 10 day cure period set forth below. If this agreement becomes null and void as a result
of the Court’s refusal to approve the settlement under Section 3(a)(10), Brio shall destroy or return the Stipulated Judgment
and all copies thereof to WSGI.


 


3.          WSGI
Share Issuances to Brio. WSGI shall issue to Brio’s designee, Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd., free trading unrestricted
shares, subject to Section 4 below, of its common stock in 12 monthly installments to be delivered to Brio Capital Master Fund
Ltd. into Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd.’s brokerage account pursuant to instructions set forth in Exhibit 3. The 12 installments
shall be made on the first trading day of each month or as soon thereafter as practical, and in no event later than the first four
trading days of such month. For each installment, WSGI shall promptly instruct its Transfer Agent to issue the installment shares
via DWAC and notify Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd. of the instruction and amount of shares. Upon notice, Brio or Brio Capital Master
Fund Ltd. or its broker shall promptly submit any instructions necessary to initiate, accept and receive such DWAC transfers into
Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd.’s brokerage account for each share installment. If the shares are not issued and delivered
during the first four trading days of any month, Brio shall have the right to give WSGI written notice of the default. If the default
is not cured within 10 calendar days of Brio sending such written notice of default, Brio shall have the right to have the Court
enter the Stipulated Judgment and to proceed to enforce that judgment, without further delay. The number of shares to be issued
each month will be an amount calculated as follows: (a) $31,250; divided by (b) the price that is the average of the closing bid
price of WSGI’s common stock for the last three trading days of the month immediately preceding the month in which the shares
are due to be issued. Thus, for example, if the last three trading days in January 2013 reflect closing bid prices reported on
OTCMarkets.com of 3.5 cents, 4.0 cents and 4.5 cents, the denominator would be 4.0 cents for the computation of how many shares
would be issued on February 1, 2013. Thus, 781,250 shares would be due to be issued on February 1, 2013. The first month that such
shares would be required to be issued is the first month following the date that an order is entered by the Supreme Court of New
York approving this Settlement Agreement pursuant to Section 3(a)(10).


 




    	4



    	 



    

 


4.          Leakout
Provision. Upon receiving shares under this Agreement, Brio and Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd agree to restrict their aggregate
selling of such shares to 25% of the daily volume trading of WSGI’s common stock in any particular day of trading as reported
by OTCMarkets.com. For example, if 1 million shares are traded on February 2, 2013, Brio, Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd or their
designee would restrict their aggregate sales of stock issued under this Agreement to 250,000 shares on February 2, 2013. Such
restriction is renewed each day. Such restriction would not apply to any sales at prices at or more than 6 cents per share. There
shall be no limit on Brio, Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd or their designee’s aggregate sales on multiple days, other than
the daily limitation set forth above. Brio or Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd. shall provide WSGI with monthly reports setting forth
the amount of WSGI shares sold each day in the aggregate by Brio and Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd. Brio and Brio Capital Master
Fund Ltd. further agree that any transfers between affiliated parties of Brio or Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd. (excluding the
initial DWAC transfer from WSGI to Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd.) shall be included toward the 25% volume limitation set forth
above. Brio and Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd agree that this agreement shall be binding on all affiliated parties who receive
transferred shares. The Parties understand that the initial DWAC transfer from WSGI shall be made to Brio Capital Master Fund
Ltd., rather than Brio, and that such transfer shall not be treated as a transfer between affiliated parties for purposes of the
restrictions hereunder. The Parties also understand that Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd., by signing below, is bound by the provisions
of this Agreement, including this paragraph, and that Brio Capital Master Fund Ltd. is an express intended beneficiary of this
Agreement entitled to enforce its terms, including the provisions of paragraph 3, above.

5.          General
Release Between Brio and WSGI Parties. Brio and Brio Capital Master Fund, Ltd, on the one hand, and the WSGI Parties, and each
of them, on the other hand, effective upon approval of the Settlement Agreement by the Court and except for the obligations contained
in this agreement, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, do hereby
absolutely, fully, and forever release, relieve, waive, relinquish, and discharge the other, and each of them, as well as each

defenses, liabilities, demands, judgments and causes of action of any kind or nature, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown,
whether fixed or contingent, whether actual or alleged, which existed at the time of the signing of this Agreement, whether or
not arising from or related to the facts alleged by Brio and/or the WSGI Parties in the Action or that could have been alleged
by any of such parties in such Action, and any cross-complaint, counter-complaint, answer or other pleading that was or could have
been filed by any of the Parties or that arose in connection with any of the matters stated in the Recitals to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein is intended to alter, amend, release or otherwise affect the Unaffected Rights and/or
the obligations arising under this Agreement. Also, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Court does not timely (within 120 days
of the execution of this Settlement Agreement) approve the settlement agreement, such releases shall be null and void.

Actions. Each of the Parties agrees to take such actions and/or to execute such documents as reasonably may be necessary to
effectuate, achieve, or/and clarify the purposes of this Agreement.


 


7.          No

agreement any right, claim, demand, damage, debt, liability, obligation, account, reckoning, cost, expense, lien, action, or cause
of action which the party has ever had against any of the other Parties to this agreement, or any part or portion thereof. Each
of the Parties to this agreement agrees to indemnify each of the other Parties, and to hold each of them harmless, of, from, and
against any and all rights, claims, demands, damages, debts, liabilities, obligations, accounts, reckonings, costs, expenses, liens,

Waiver of Breaches. No delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof, and no waiver by

rights or trigger the requirement that WSGI must issue or sell additional shares to any other person, including, without limitation,
to any of the WSGI Parties (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement), and including, without limitation, any anti-dilution
provision under any contract or security to which WSGI is a party or an issuer.
