Gulfstream International Group Receives Strategic Investment Commitment


Investment will strengthen Company's financial position and enable the
Company to execute an expanded strategic plan


Scott R. Silverman, Managing Partner of Sah-Vul Strategic Partners, to
be named Vice Chairman of Gulfstream's board of directors


FT. LAUDERDALE, FL - August 30, 2010 - Gulfstream International Group,
Inc. ("Gulfstream" or the "Company") (AMEX: GIA) announced today that it
has received a commitment for an investment of up to $2.5 million from
Sah-Vul Strategic Partners, LLC ("Sah-Vul") that will enable the Company
to strengthen its financial position, and enables it to expand its
strategic plan with an increased focus on growth and maximization of
stockholder value. The commitment includes an initial $1.5 million in
the form of a secured convertible note, and provides an option for
Sah-Vul to invest an additional $1.0 million.


Consummation of the transaction is expected to occur shortly and is
subject to certain conditions, including receipt of third party consents
and approvals.


Gulfstream International Airlines currently operates more than 150
scheduled flights per day, serving nine destinations in Florida, 10
destinations in the Bahamas, five destinations from Continental
Airline's Cleveland hub under the Department of Transportation's
Essential Air Service Program, as well as licensed daily charter flights
to Cuba. A sixth destination from Cleveland is scheduled to start
October 1. Gulfstream has code-share and alliance agreements with
Continental Airlines, United Airlines and Copa Airlines of Panama.


With this investment, the Company will look to expand service in its
current geographic markets and open new regional markets that are
underserved by larger carriers. In addition, Sah-Vul plans to work with
the Company to refinance its fleet of aircraft from Raytheon Aircraft
Credit Corporation and lower its operating costs.


Sah-Vul Managing Partner Scott R. Silverman will assume the role of Vice
Chairman of Gulfstream's board of directors upon consummation of the
investment. Commenting on the investment, Silverman said, "Based on our
evaluation of Gulfstream's operations and its unique model in its
geographic markets, we believe the Company presents a compelling growth
opportunity that can return significant value for Sah-Vul and all GIA
stockholders. We believe that our capital and vision can help Gulfstream
as we work to unlock its potential value."


Silverman is currently the Chairman and CEO of PositiveID Corporation,
and has led public companies including VeriChip Corporation and Digital
Angel Corporation (formerly Applied Digital Solutions, Inc.). Silverman
graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1985 and Villanova
University School of Law in 1989.


Thomas A. McFall, Chairman and Senior Executive Officer of Gulfstream,
said, "We look forward to bringing in Sah-Vul as a partner and new
investor, with its significant capital markets experience, a proven
track record of enhancing shareholder value, and its belief in the
prospects of Gulfstream. With the continuing consolidation of larger
airlines, the Company has an unprecedented number of growth
opportunities available to it and we are excited about proceeding to
develop those, particularly as we expand our initial base in the
Northeast."
