Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On April 3, 2013, ORBCOMM Inc. (“ORBCOMM” or the “Company”) completed its previously announced acquisition of substantially all of the assets of GlobalTrak, (“GlobalTrak”) a division of System Planning Corporation and a provider of wireless asset and GPS tracking and monitoring products and services to improve logistics and security processes and operations on a global basis (the “GlobalTrak Acquisition”).

The consideration paid by ORBCOMM at the closing of the GlobalTrak Acquisition was equal to the aggregate amount of $2,750,000 in cash (as adjusted by the net working capital adjustment), of which $500,000 was deposited in escrow with a third party escrow agent, which escrowed amount will be available to pay certain indemnification obligations of System Planning Corporation to ORBCOMM. ORBCOMM also assumed certain specified liabilities, generally consisting of current liabilities reflected in the closing working capital calculation.

MobileNet:

On April 1, 2013, ORBCOMM completed its previously announced acquisition of substantially all of the assets of MobileNet, Inc. (“MobileNet”), a provider of wireless asset and GPS tracking and monitoring products and services to the heavy equipment and rail support industries (the “MobileNet Acquisition”).

The consideration paid by ORBCOMM at the closing of the MobileNet Acquisition was equal to the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (the “Closing Consideration”) in cash and common stock as follows:

 

  (i) Cash consideration in an amount equal to $3,500,000, as adjusted by the net working capital adjustments;

 

  (ii) Issuance and delivery to MobileNet of 164,672 shares of ORBCOMM common stock (based on the amount of $750,000 divided by the average 20-day closing price of ORBCOMM common stock on NASDAQ prior to the execution of the Asset Purchase Agreement for the MobileNet Acquisition (the “Average Price”));

 

  (iii) Issuance and delivery to a third party escrow agent, of 164,672 shares of ORBCOMM common stock (based on the amount of $750,000 divided by the Average Price), which escrowed shares will be available to pay certain indemnification obligations of MobileNet to ORBCOMM; and

 

  (iv) Assumption of certain specified liabilities, generally consisting of deferred revenue obligations reflected in the closing working capital calculation.

In addition to the Closing Consideration, contingent consideration is payable by ORBCOMM if service revenues attributable to the MobileNet business for either of the two one year periods after the closing are in excess of the specified baseline amount. In that event, ORBCOMM has agreed to pay to MobileNet an amount equal to (i) fifty percent (50%) of the first $2,000,000 of such excess amount for the applicable earnout period and (ii) thirty-five percent (35%) of any amount of such excess amount for the applicable earnout period which is greater than $2,000,000 (the “Earnout Amounts”).


Up to fifty percent (50%) of such payments of the Earnout Amounts, if and when earned, may be paid in shares of ORBCOMM common stock (at the ORBCOMM’s option) valued at the average closing price for the 20 trading days ending on the last trading day of the applicable earnout period on NASDAQ, with the balance payable in cash.
