Offering of Common Stock

On October 5, 2017, Globalstar, Inc. (“Globalstar,” “we” or “us”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as Manager for the several underwriters named on Schedule II thereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the sale of 73,365,231 shares of voting common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a public offering price of $1.65 per share.  Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, we granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase an additional 11,004,784 shares of Common Stock.  The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to closing.

The Company will receive approximately $114.8 million in net proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to meet its obligation to raise $114.0 million by October 30, 2017 pursuant to a June 2017 amendment to the credit agreement with its senior lenders (the “Facility Agreement”).  Eighty percent of the net proceeds of the offering will be deposited in a restricted account and are expected to be drawn to pay principal and interest due under the Facility Agreement in December 2017 and June 2018.  Globalstar expects that the remainder of the proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

A copy of the opinion of Taft Stettinius & Hollister LLP relating to the validity of the issuance and sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement is also filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
