EXPLANATORY NOTE:

On June 30, 2017, the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Globalstar, Inc. ("Globalstar") authorized the issuance of 17,837,838 shares of Globalstar common stock (the "Common Stock") to Thermo Funding II LLC ("Thermo Funding") for a $33 million purchase price. As required by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange American ("NYSE American"), Globalstar listed the Common Stock on the NYSE American.  Under Delaware General Corporation Law and Globalstar’s articles of incorporation and bylaws no authorization or approval, other than as provided by the Special Committee, was necessary for the issuance of the Common Stock.  Globalstar incorrectly considered that the listing of the Common Stock on the NYSE American required shareholder approval, and Thermo Funding, as the majority shareholder of Globalstar, approved the issuance of the Common Stock.  Following consultations with the NYSE American, Globalstar has concluded that no shareholder approval was necessary in connection with the issuance or listing of the Common Stock on the NYSE American.  As a result, there was no action taken by shareholders of Globalstar without a meeting for which notification and distribution of an Information Statement to shareholders was required pursuant to Rule 14c-2 or Schedule 14C of the Exchange Act.  Consequently, Globalstar is withdrawing the Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed on September 19, 2017.

For more information regarding the issuance of Common Stock, see Globalstar’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 7, 2017.
