Fuelstream, Inc. (OTCQB:FLST) ("Fuelstream" or the "Company") announced today that operations of the Company are continuing in spite of an indictment filed yesterday in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida, against Aviation Fuel International, Inc. ("AFI"), the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, as well as one of the Company's employees. The indictment contains allegations against AFI and Sean Wagner, the Company's Vice President of Sales, relating to activities of them prior to AFI's acquisition by Fuelstream in January 2012.

Neither Fuelstream or any of its executive officers or directors were named in the indictment and none of the actions alleged therein are claimed to relate to activities of the Company or any individual while in the employ of the Company.

Mr. Wagner's attorney stated, in a telephone interview with Reuters, that Mr. Wagner is not guilty and that "the charges are based on fabrications by admitted criminals who hope that by implicating other people they're going to get a sentence reduction." Mr. Wagner's attorney further commented that the testimony of such persons would not withstand a public trial, which Mr. Wagner has specifically requested. The allegations in the indictment stem from alleged activities from 2005 thru 2009, which was approximately 3 years prior to the acquisition of AFI by Fuelstream.

Mr. Wagner continues to work with the Company in securing additional fuel delivery contracts and expanding the Company's sales pipeline. Robert Catala, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, stated "while we are somewhat affected by Mr. Wagner's indictment we believe in the due process afforded by the American justice system and are confident Mr. Wagner will receive a fair trial. My duty as CEO is to continue to drive the Company in a positive direction by expanding our supply network and aggressively pursue new customers and secure financing in order to maximize shareholder value."
