EXPLANATORY NOTE

As previously disclosed, on December 17, 2024, by written consent, following the approval and recommendation of the Strategic Review Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Globalstar, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Board, James Monroe III, a director and Executive Chairman of the Board, and certain of Mr. Monroe’s affiliates, including FL Investment Holdings LLC, Thermo Funding Company, LLC, Thermo Funding II LLC, Globalstar Satellite, L.P., Monroe Irrevocable Educational Trust, Thermo Properties II LLC, James Monroe III Grantor Trust, Thermo Investments LP, and Thermo XCOM LLC, as the majority stockholders of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), approved amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to (i) effect a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Common Stock, at a ratio of between 1 for 10 to 1 for 25, such ratio to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Authorized Officers”), in conjunction with the Board; and (ii) to reduce the 2,150,000,000 shares of Common Stock currently authorized under the Company’s certificate of incorporation to a lower amount in proportion to the Reverse Stock Split (the “Authorized Share Reduction Charter Amendment”).

Additionally, as previously disclosed, on January 21, 2025, the Company announced that it intended to voluntarily delist the shares of its Common Stock from the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”) and transfer its listing to the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”), subject to the completion of the Reverse Stock Split.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in each of Items 5.03 and 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On February 7, 2025, the Company filed with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to (i) effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1 for 15 for each share of Common Stock effective as of February 10, 2025 at 5:30 PM ET (the “Effective Time”), (ii) effect the Authorized Share Reduction Charter Amendment to reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the certificate of incorporation in proportion to the Reverse Stock Split ratio, and (iii) change all references to the “New York Stock Exchange” in the certificate of incorporation to “Nasdaq Stock Market LLC” (the “Charter Amendments”). Other than the Charter Amendments, no additional changes have been made to the Company’s certificate of incorporation.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 15 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock will be automatically combined at the Effective Time into one issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares that would otherwise have resulted from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the next whole number. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock under the Company’s certificate of incorporation as amended by the Certificate of Amendment will be reduced to 143,333,334 shares of Common Stock. Neither the Reverse Stock Split nor the Charter Amendments will have any impact on the number of shares of preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue under its certificate of incorporation or the number of issued and outstanding shares of its Series A Preferred Stock.

Furthermore, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company expects the last day of trading of its Common Stock on the NYSE American to be February 10, 2025. The Company expects its Common Stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq on a split-adjusted basis under new CUSIP number 378973507 on February 11, 2025, the first trading day after the Effective Time, and will continue to trade under the symbol “GSAT.”

Following the Reverse Stock Split, the Company will make proportionate adjustments, as necessary, to (i) its outstanding equity awards, (ii) the number of shares authorized to be issued under the Company’s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, and (iii) the number of shares of its Common Stock issuable pursuant to outstanding warrants in proportion to the Reverse Stock Split pursuant to the terms and conditions of the definitive agreements governing such warrants, as applicable.



Additional information about the Reverse Stock Split and Charter Amendments can be found in the Company’s definitive information statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 27, 2024. The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8‑K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

The information contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company issued a press release on February 7, 2025 announcing its planned timing to implement the Reverse Stock Split and Charter Amendments, the transfer of the listing of its Common Stock from the NYSE American to Nasdaq and the corresponding change of the CUSIP number for its Common Stock, each as described above. Additional information about the anticipated implementation of the Reverse Stock Split and Charter Amendments and the transfer of the listing of the Common Stock from the NYSE American to Nasdaq are contained in the Company’s press release, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

1.This Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) amends the provisions of the Corporation’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State on May 27, 2021 (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).

2.That the Board of Directors of the Corporation duly adopted resolutions setting forth the approval of the following Certificate of Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, declaring said Certificate of Amendment to be advisable and recommending that the majority stockholders of the Corporation approve the same.

3.That thereafter, pursuant to a written consent, the necessary number of shares as required by statute voted to approve this Certificate of Amendment.

4.That the Certificate of Incorporation of this Corporation be amended by changing the Article thereof numbered “FOURTH” by:

A.Amending and restating the first sentence of the Article thereof numbered “FOURTH” in its entirety, as follows:

“The Corporation shall have the authority to issue Two Hundred Forty-Three Million Three Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Four (243,333,334) total shares of capital stock, consisting of One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”), and One Hundred Forty-Three Million Three Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Four (143,333,334) shares of voting common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “common stock” or “Common Stock”).”

B.Inserting the following in the Article thereof numbered “FOURTH” immediately after the amended and restated first sentence thereof as amended by this Certificate of Amendment, as follows:

“Upon the filing and effectiveness (the “Effective Time”), pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, of this Certificate of Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, each 15 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock without any further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof (the “Reverse
1

Globalstar Transfers to Nasdaq Global Select Market

Globalstar to implement a 1-for-15 Reverse Stock Split effective February 11, 2025

Covington, LA, Feb. 7, 2025 -- Globalstar, Inc. (NYSE American: GSAT) (“Globalstar” or the “Company”), a next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and technology provider, today announced that it intends to (i) implement the previously-disclosed reverse stock split and related charter amendments and to voluntarily transfer the listing of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) from the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”) effective following the close of trading on February 10, 2025, and (ii) transfer the listing of its Common Stock to the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) effective February 11, 2025. Upon transferring, Globalstar expects to meet the eligibility requirements for inclusion in the Nasdaq Composite Index.

“This strategic decision to complete a reverse stock split and uplist to the Nasdaq Global Select Market reflects the strong growth trajectory in our business. With these changes, we expect to enhance our visibility, attract a more diverse and institutional shareholder base, and improve overall liquidity,” said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer of Globalstar.

The Company plans to file today with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to (i) effect the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1 for 15 for each share of Common Stock effective as of February 10, 2025 at 5:30 PM ET (the “Effective Time”) and (ii) reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the certificate of incorporation in proportion to the reverse stock split ratio.

As a result of the implementation of the reverse stock split, every 15 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock will be automatically combined at the Effective Time into one issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares that would otherwise have resulted from the reverse stock split will be rounded up the next whole number. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock under the Company’s certificate of incorporation as amended by the Certificate of Amendment will be reduced to 143,333,334 shares of Common Stock.

Furthermore, as a result of the reverse stock split, the Company expects the last day of trading of its Common Stock on the NYSE American to be February 10, 2025. The Company expects its Common Stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq on a split-adjusted basis under new CUSIP number 378973507 on February 11, 2025, the first trading day after the Effective Time, and will continue to trade under the symbol “GSAT.”

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), the Company’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Stockholders with certificated shares will receive a letter of transmittal from Computershare with instructions on how to surrender certificates representing pre-split shares. Stockholders with book-entry shares or who hold their shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will not need to take any action.

Additional information about the reverse stock split and charter amendments can be found in the Company’s definitive information statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 27, 2024.
