We are pleased to take advantage of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow us to furnish our proxy materials via the internet. As a result, we are sending our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "N&A Notice") instead of paper copies of this proxy statement and our 2024 Annual Report. The N&A Notice contains instructions on how to access and review those documents using the internet. The N&A Notice also instructs you on how to submit your proxy using the internet or by phone. If you would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting them included in the N&A Notice.

We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting.

Sincerely,

James Monroe III

Annual Meeting and Other Information

Information About the Annual Meeting, Voting and Attendance

We are providing you with this proxy statement and the related proxy card because our Board of Directors (the “Board”) is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares of our common stock at the Annual Meeting. At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to elect three Class A Directors; ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") as our 2025 independent registered public accounting firm; approve our entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement; approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation; and consider any other matters that may properly be brought before the Annual Meeting. You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting, where you may vote your shares of our common stock in person. However, whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting, you may vote by proxy as described on the next page.

We are furnishing our proxy materials via the internet. We expect to begin mailing the N&A Notice on or about April 9, 2025 to registered stockholders at the close of business on March 25, 2025 (the “Record Date”).

Why Did You Receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (Instead of a Full Set)

In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials to each stockholder of record, we intend to furnish our proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our 2024 annual report to stockholders, by providing access to these documents on the internet and notice of such access. Generally, stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them.

We have mailed a Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “N&A Notice”) to our registered stockholders as of the Record Date. The N&A Notice provides instructions to registered stockholders for accessing our proxy materials and for submitting your proxy and voting instructions for shares of our common stock on the internet. If you are a registered stockholder and prefer to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions provided in the N&A Notice for requesting those materials.

Who Can Vote

Only holders of our common stock at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Holders of stock options or unvested restricted stock units issued under our Equity Incentive Plan cannot vote the shares issuable upon exercise or vesting until those shares are issued.

On the Record Date, there were 126,582,094 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of our common stock that you owned as of the Record Date entitles you to one vote on each matter to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

Registered stockholders as of the Record Date can submit their proxy and voting instructions before or at the Annual Meeting in any one of the four ways described below. When you submit your proxy and voting instructions on the internet or by telephone or proxy card, you are authorizing the persons named on the proxy card (the "management proxies") to vote your shares in the manner you direct.

•By Internet - You may vote on the internet at www.proxyvote.com. The N&A Notice sent to you describes how to do this.

•By Telephone - You can vote by telephone only if you request and receive a paper copy of the proxy materials and proxy card. The N&A Notice describes how to request materials. You must request materials by May 6, 2025. Instructions for how to vote by telephone are available on the proxy card.


						Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025 / 1

/ Annual Meeting and Other Information

•By Mail - You can vote by mail only if you request and receive a paper copy of the proxy materials and proxy card. The N&A Notice provides instructions on how to request materials. You must request materials by May 6, 2025. You vote by mail by completing, signing, dating, and timely returning a proxy card.

•In Person - You may come to the Annual Meeting at our headquarters located at 1351 Holiday Square Blvd., Covington, LA 70433 and cast your vote there.

For beneficial owners (with shares held in "street name"), the N&A Notice should have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other holder of record (nominee). Your nominee should have also provided instructions on how you may request a paper or email copy of our proxy materials and how you may provide voting instructions to your nominee. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the registered stockholder, you may not vote your shares of our common stock in person at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker's procedures for obtaining a legal proxy.

Voting Authority of Management Proxies

Whether you hold your shares of our common stock as a registered stockholder or in street name, your proxy vote authorizes the management proxies to vote as directed by you. If you are a registered stockholder as of the Record Date and you send in a properly executed proxy card without specific voting instructions, your shares of common stock represented by the proxy will be voted as recommended by the Board, namely:

1.FOR the election of the three Class A director nominees named in this proxy statement;

2.FOR the ratification of the appointment of EY as our 2025 independent registered public accounting firm;

3.FOR the approval of the entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement; and

4.FOR the approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation.

Other Business - We are not aware of any other matter that is expected to be acted on at the Annual Meeting.

Controlling Stockholder

Shares owned by Thermo, which are entities owned and controlled by our Executive Chairman and controlling stockholder, Mr. James Monroe III (as discussed in Mr. Monroe's bio and the "Security Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management" table), are not entitled to vote for the election of Minority Directors, Keith O. Cowan and Benjamin G. Wolff (as discussed in Proposal 1), or the approval of entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement (as discussed in Proposal 3). Additionally, while Thermo will be eligible to vote on the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation with respect to "DGCL Stockholder Approval" (as defined below), Thermo will not be eligible to vote on the amendment for purposes of the "Majority of the Minority Stockholder Approval" (as defined and discussed below in Proposal 4).

Mr. Monroe has informed us that he intends to vote, on behalf of himself and Thermo, for the election of Dr. Paul E. Jacobs (the director nominee in Proposal 1 who is not a Minority Director), the ratification of the appointment of our 2025 independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2) and the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation (Proposal 4) with respect to the DGCL Stockholder Approval (as defined below). This vote assures approval of these voting matters in accordance with the Board’s recommendations; provided that with respect to Proposal 4, only for the DGCL Stockholder Approval.


2 / Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025

Annual Meeting and Other Information /

Effect of Not Casting Your Vote

If you are a registered stockholder as of the Record Date, no votes will be cast on your behalf on any of the items of business at the Annual Meeting unless you submit a proxy before or vote at the Annual Meeting.

If you hold shares in street name, you must give instructions to your nominee on how you would like your shares of our common stock to be voted. If you do not provide any instructions, your nominee can vote your shares only on “routine” items, which includes only the ratification of the appointment of our 2025 independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2). The election of directors (Proposal 1), entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement (Proposal 3) and the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation (Proposal 4) are not considered “routine” items. Thus, if a nominee holds your shares and you do not instruct the nominee how to vote on these items, your shares will not be voted on your behalf for such items and a "broker non-vote" will occur.

How to Change or Revoke Your Proxy Vote

Registered Stockholders - If you give internet or telephonic voting instructions or send in a proxy card and later want to change or revoke your proxy, you may do so at any time provided that your voting instructions are received before voting closes for the method you select or if you vote in person at the Annual Meeting. You may change or revoke your proxy in any of the following ways:

•by giving new voting instructions on the internet or by telephone before voting closes for that method, or by mailing new voting instructions to us on a proxy card with a later date;

•by notifying our Corporate Secretary in writing (at the mailing address listed on page 16) that you have revoked your proxy; or

•by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

You may use any of these methods to change your vote, regardless of the method previously used to submit your proxy. The inspector of election for the Annual Meeting will count only the voting instructions included in the most recent proxy received before the deadlines set for such method of voting.

Beneficial Owners - You should follow the instructions given to you by your broker or nominee on how to change or revoke your vote.

How to Vote Your Shares in our Employee Benefit Plans

If you hold shares of our common stock in our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), you cannot vote your shares directly. The trustee for the ESPP will vote the shares of our common stock held in the plan. You will receive a voting instruction card from the trustee, which will provide voting instructions. If you provide voting instructions, the trustee will vote your shares in the ESPP as you direct. If you do not provide voting instructions, your shares in the ESPP will not be voted.

Quorum Requirement

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will exist if holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions count as shares of our common stock present at the meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum.

Method and Cost of Soliciting Proxies

We have asked banks, brokers and other financial institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward our proxy materials to beneficial owners and to obtain voting instructions, and we will reimburse them for their expenses in doing so. Proxies also may be solicited by our management, without additional compensation, through the mail, in person, or by telephone or electronic means.

/ Annual Meeting and Other Information

Admission to the Annual Meeting

We reserve the right to limit admission to the Annual Meeting to our registered stockholders as of the Record Date, persons holding valid proxies from our registered stockholders as of the Record Date and beneficial owners of our common stock as of the Record Date. If your shares of our common stock are registered in your name, we may verify your ownership at the meeting in our list of stockholders as of the Record Date. If your shares of our common stock are held through a nominee, you should bring to the meeting proof of your beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock as of the Record Date. This documentation could consist of, for example, a bank or brokerage firm account statement that shows your ownership as of the Record Date or a letter from your nominee confirming your ownership of shares of our common stock as of the Record Date.

Vote Required to Approve Each Proposal

The voting options and votes required for the approval of each proposal to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, and the treatment of abstentions and broker non-votes for each proposal are listed in the table below.

No Effect

1.Thermo and its affiliates may not vote their shares of our common stock with respect to the election of the Minority Directors, Keith O. Cowan and Benjamin G. Wolff. Accordingly, to be elected, the Minority Director nominees must receive a plurality of the votes cast other than Thermo and its affiliates. However, Thermo and its affiliates may vote their shares of our common stock with respect to the election of Dr. Paul E. Jacobs.

2.Because banks, brokers, trustees and other nominees will have discretionary authority with respect to Proposal 2, there should be no broker non-votes for this item. Broker non-votes, if any, on Proposal 2 would have the same effect as votes against such proposal.

3.In addition to the DGCL Stockholder Approval (as defined below), in accordance with our Certificate of Incorporation, Proposal 4 must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of shares of our common stock owned by stockholders, other than Thermo and its affiliates and voting affirmatively or negatively on the matter.

Other Information

Reverse Stock Split and Listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC

Effective following the close of trading on February 10, 2025, we voluntarily withdrew the listing of our common stock from the NYSE American, effected a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1 to 15 shares of common stock and amended our Certificate of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock that we may issue from 2,150,000,000 shares to 143,333,334 shares of common stock. Effective at the start of trading on February 11, 2025, our common stock began trading on a post-split basis under the symbol “GSAT” on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. All historical share amounts (including options, warrants, RSUs), stock-based compensation awards, per share amounts and share prices included herein have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Information About the Board and its Committees

Board Governance

Our Board has four standing committees: Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Governance and Strategic Review. The Board has adopted a charter for each standing committee.

We have a Code of Conduct that is applicable to all employees, including executive officers, as well as directors to the extent relevant to their service as directors.

The committee charters and Code of Conduct are available on our website at investors.globalstar.com under “Governance.” You may request a copy of any of these documents to be mailed to you as described on page 52 of this proxy statement. We will post any amendments to, or waivers from, the Code of Conduct that apply to our principal executive and financial officers on our website. As of the date of this proxy statement, no such waivers have been requested or granted.

Thermo holds stock representing a majority of our voting power. As a result, we are a “controlled company” for purposes of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") rules and are not required to have a majority of independent directors on the Board, comply with the director independence requirements for compensation committees, or comply with the requirement for independent director oversight of director nominations. However, we are subject to all other Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, including the rule requiring that the audit committee be composed entirely of independent directors meeting the heightened independence requirements.

Risk Oversight

The Board has determined that the role of risk oversight will remain with the full Board rather than delegating that responsibility to a specific committee, although the Audit Committee continues to focus on accounting and financial risks. Our executive officers evaluate and manage day-to-day risks and report regularly to the Board on these matters.

The Board has oversight responsibility for information security and cybersecurity. The Company prioritizes the protection of data and is committed to the ongoing enhancement of its cybersecurity and privacy capabilities. Management has established an information security program as well as policies and procedures to mitigate risks resulting from cyber-attacks, including dedicated information security personnel (both internal employees and specialized contractors with security expertise), network monitoring and annual penetration testing on the Company's network. Management maintains effective internal controls and the Company's cybersecurity program is on par with industry standards and best practices, such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework as well as other applicable laws and regulations. Ongoing information security training is also provided to employees. Management provides regular updates to the Board regarding these matters, including any significant cyber threats or incidents.

Corporate Sustainability

The Board has oversight of the Company's Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") matters. The Board has not delegated responsibility of ESG oversight to a subcommittee, but may choose to do so in the future. Executive officers of the Company have responsibility for the implementation and continued monitoring of ESG matters.

1.The Board has determined that Messrs. Cowan, Hasler and Wolff are independent directors as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Nasdaq rules.

Director Summary

Our Bylaws provide for a nine-member Board of Directors and the Board currently has seven members. Our Board is divided into three classes, with staggered three-year terms. Class A consists of three directors and each of Class B and Class C consists of two directors. As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed April 30, 2024, and in our 2024 proxy statement, Michael J. Lovett, a former Class C director of the Company, passed away during 2024. Accordingly, the Company is currently in the process of identifying and interviewing candidates for the vacant Class B and Class C directorships. The terms of the directors of each class expire at the annual meetings of stockholders to be held in 2025 (Class A), 2026 (Class B) and 2027 (Class C). At each annual meeting of stockholders, one class of directors will be elected for a term of three years to succeed the directors whose terms are expiring.

Leadership Structure

Dr. Jacobs serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Monroe serves as the Executive Chairman of the Board. Our Bylaws provide the Board flexibility to appoint one individual as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board or to separate the roles and appoint an individual for each role. We believe the current separation between Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of the Board provides the Company with the ability to pursue strategic and operational objectives, while also maintaining oversight and objective evaluation of the performance of the Company.

Mr. Monroe dually served as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer from our initial public offering in November 2006 through July 2009 and again July 2011 through September 2018. As demonstrated by past practice, the Board, with input from Mr. Monroe, will periodically review our leadership structure and determine what leadership structure best supports our business, making changes as the Board deems appropriate.

Meetings and Attendance in Meetings

During 2024, the Board held 8 meetings. Each director serving on the Board in 2024 attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and of each committee on which he served in each case during the time he was a director. We do not have a policy regarding director attendance at our annual meetings. No members of the Board attended our 2024 annual meeting.

Board of Directors and Corporate Governance /

The Compensation Committee makes decisions on all components of compensation for all employees at the vice president level and above and reviews employees at the manager level and below for bonus and equity awards based upon input from executive officers in charge of each business unit.

The Compensation Committee meets as often as it determines necessary to discharge its responsibilities. The Committee may hold follow-up conference calls and act by written consent between its regularly scheduled meetings. In 2024, the Compensation Committee held three meetings.

Under its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to retain and terminate compensation consultants used to assist in the evaluation of executive officer compensation. During 2024, the Company, on behalf of the Compensation Committee, engaged a consultant to evaluate compensation for its named executive officers as well as other vice presidents of the Company. The Compensation Committee's charter is available at our website at investors.globalstar.com under "Governance."

The Compensation Committee has furnished the following report for inclusion in this proxy statement.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The current members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are Messrs. Cowan and Monroe. Mr. Monroe serves as Chairman.

Nominating and Governance Committee

Meeting in 2024

/ Mr. Monroe (Chairman)

/ Mr. Cowan

The principal functions of the Nominating and Governance Committee include:

•identifying and recommending to the Board qualified candidates to fill vacancies on the Board in accordance with the committee's charter (subject to the authority of the Strategic Review Committee);

•recommending to the Board candidates to be nominated for election as directors at annual meetings of stockholders (subject to the authority of the Strategic Review Committee);

•considering stockholder suggestions for nominees for director;

•making recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance matters and practices;

•reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding director compensation; and

•reviewing public policy matters of importance to our stockholders, including oversight of our corporate responsibility program.

The Nominating and Governance Committee met one time in 2024. We do not currently employ an executive search firm, or pay a fee to any other third party, to locate or evaluate qualified candidates for director positions. The Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee believe that the minimum qualifications (whether a candidate is recommended by a stockholder, management or the Board) for serving as a director are that a nominee demonstrate, by significant accomplishment in his or her field, an ability to make a meaningful contribution to the Board’s oversight of our business and have an impeccable record and reputation for honest and ethical conduct in his or her professional and personal activities. The Nominating and Governance Committee, as well as any search firm or consultant it may engage, includes candidates with a diversity of race, ethnicity and gender in the pool from which it selects director candidates. The Nominating and Governance Committee's charter is available for review on our website at investors.globalstar.com under "Governance."

/ Board of Directors and Corporate Governance

The Board has not established formal procedures for stockholders to submit director recommendations; however, such recommendations may be sent by U.S. Postal Service mail to the Globalstar Nominating and Governance Committee, c/o Corporate Secretary, 1351 Holiday Square Blvd., Covington, LA 70433, or by e-mail to corporate.secretary@globalstar.com, and should be sent by not later than December 31 of the year before the year in which the director candidate is recommended for election. If we were to receive such a recommendation of a candidate from a stockholder, the Nominating and Governance Committee would consider the recommendation in the same manner as all other candidates. In considering candidates submitted by stockholders, the Nominating and Governance Committee will take into consideration the needs of the Board and the qualifications of the candidate.

Strategic Review Committee

The current members of the Strategic Review Committee are Messrs. Cowan, Taylor, Hasler and Wolff. Mr. Wolff serves as Chairman. The Strategic Review Committee is required to remain in existence for as long as Thermo and its affiliates beneficially own forty-five percent (45%) or more of Globalstar’s outstanding common stock (the “Thermo Minimum Shares”).

Strategic Review Committee

Meetings in 2024

/ Mr. Wolff (Chairman)

/ Mr. Cowan

/ Mr. Hasler

/ Mr. Taylor

The principal functions of the Strategic Review Committee include:

•Unless the Strategic Review Committee is prohibited under applicable law from having the power or authority to act on any of the following matters, the Strategic Review Committee has exclusive responsibility for oversight, review, and approval (to the extent permitted by law) or disapproval of the following:

•any acquisition by Thermo of additional newly-issued securities of the Company (other than pursuant to a Permitted Financing (as defined below));

•any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

•any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any sale or transfer of assets of any of the Company’s subsidiaries which are material to the Company;

•any change in the Board, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors, other than nominations for election or reelection to the Board (except nominations for election or reelection of Minority Directors (as defined below in Proposal 1) in connection with the end of a term of a Minority Director) and nominations and appointments of individuals to fill vacancies or newly created directorships (except nominations and appointments to fill vacancies of Minority Director seats);

•any transaction between the Company and one or more of the Thermo stockholders that has a value (as determined in good faith by the Strategic Review Committee) in excess of $250,000, except for any Permitted Financing, any Debt Conversion, any Option Conversion, and certain other matters.

For as long as Thermo and its affiliates own the Thermo Minimum Shares, to the extent that any of the foregoing matters, or any matter set forth in the charter of the Strategic Review Committee, requires approval of the full Board under applicable law, the Company does not have the power to take such action unless such action is approved by the Board only after it is recommended to the Board by the Strategic Review Committee.

Certain enumerated transactions are not subject to Strategic Review Committee review, including a financing that includes participation by one or more of the Thermo stockholders on terms equal (as determined in good faith by the Board) to other parties (a “Permitted Financing”).

The Strategic Review Committee met five times in 2024. The Strategic Review Committee requires the affirmative vote of a majority of its authorized number of members (regardless of vacancies thereon) in order to take action at a meeting. To the extent the Strategic Review Committee fails to obtain such vote on any particular matter of business before it, the Strategic Review Committee consults with the Board until such vote is obtained or the matter is otherwise resolved and abandoned. In the event the Strategic Review Committee cannot obtain such vote for any single nominee for Minority Director, then the Strategic Review Committee shall nominate two such nominees for each Minority Director seat subject to election. The members of the Strategic Review Committee who are Minority Directors shall each have three votes with respect to one nominee for Minority Director and the members of the Strategic Review Committee who are not Minority Directors shall each have three votes with respect to the other nominee for Minority Director. The Strategic Review Committee may nominate and include on the annual or special meeting proxy card two candidates for a Minority Director seat. The Strategic Review Committee's charter is available at our website at investors.globalstar.com under "Governance."

Communicating with the Board of Directors or with Individual Directors

The Board has adopted a process for our stockholders and any other interested parties to send communications to the Board or any management or non-management director. Correspondence should be addressed to the Board or any individual director(s) or group or committee of directors either by name or title. All correspondence of this nature should be sent to us by US Postal Service mail at c/o Corporate Secretary, 1351 Holiday Square Blvd., Covington, LA 70433.

All communications received as set forth in the preceding paragraph will be opened by the office of the Secretary for the sole purpose of determining whether the contents represent a message to the directors. Any contents that are not in the nature of promotion of a product or service, advertising, or patently offensive will be forwarded promptly to the addressee(s), but any communication also will be available to any director who requests it.

Election of Class A Directors

Upon recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee and, with respect to the Minority Directors, the Strategic Review Committee, the Board has nominated

/ Keith O. Cowan

/ Benjamin G. Wolff

/ Dr. Paul E. Jacobs

for election as Class A Directors at the Annual Meeting. The nominations rest, in part, on each nominee’s diverse business experience, qualifications, skills and attributes described above. Each of these nominees has consented to being named in this proxy statement and has agreed to serve if elected. If you elect them, they will hold office until our annual meeting of stockholders in 2028 or until their successors have been elected and qualified. The Board is not aware of any reason why any nominee would be unable to serve as a director if elected. If prior to the Annual Meeting any nominee should become unable to serve as a director, the management proxies may vote for another nominee proposed by the Board, although proxies may not be voted for more than three nominees. If any director resigns, dies or is otherwise unable to serve out his term, or if the Board increases the number of directors, the Board may fill the vacancy for the balance of the term for that class of directors; provided that, for any vacancies left by a Minority Director, the candidate for director must be nominated by the Strategic Review Committee. Under our Bylaws, only the Board may fill vacancies on the Board.

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that so long as Thermo and its affiliates beneficially own at least 45% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, two of the members of the Board (the “Minority Directors”) must be elected by the vote of a plurality of the Company’s outstanding common stock other than Thermo and its affiliates. Upon recommendation of the Strategic Review Committee, Keith O. Cowan and Benjamin G. Wolff have been nominated for election as Class A Directors at the Annual Meeting and both directors qualify as Minority Directors under our Certificate of Incorporation.

Vote Required to Elect Directors

The election of directors nominated for election at the Annual Meeting require a plurality of the votes of the shares of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. All holders of our common stock as of the Record Date, other than Thermo and its affiliates, are eligible to vote for the election of the Minority Directors nominated for election at the Annual Meeting, Keith O. Cowan and Benjamin G. Wolff. All holders of our common stock as of the Record Date are eligible to vote for the election of Dr. Paul E. Jacobs. Therefore, the nominees who receive the highest number of votes cast by stockholders eligible to vote (a plurality) will be elected as directors. There is no provision under our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws for cumulative voting in the election of directors. If you do not vote for a particular nominee, or if you indicate “withhold” to vote for a particular nominee, your vote will not count “for” the nominee. “Withhold” votes and “broker non-votes” will not count as a vote cast with respect to that nominee’s election.

Proposal One

/ The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the election of the three Class A director nominees.

Ratification of 2025 Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board desires to obtain from the stockholders an indication of their approval or disapproval of the appointment by the Audit Committee of Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2025.

EY has served as our independent registered public accounting firm beginning with the audit of the year ended December 31, 2020. We have been informed that neither EY nor any of its partners has any direct financial interest or any material indirect financial interest in Globalstar and during the past three years has not had any connection therewith in the capacity of promoter, underwriter, director, officer or employee.

One or more representatives of EY will be present, either in person or by telephone, at the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

If the resolution is defeated, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment, although the appointment will be permitted to stand unless the Audit Committee becomes aware of other reasons for changing independent registered public accounting firms. Additionally, even if stockholders ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it believes such appointment is in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders.

Vote Required to Ratify the Appointment of EY

The Board will consider an affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of our common stock.

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accountants. Non-audit services may include audit-related services, tax services and other services not prohibited by SEC rules on auditor independence. Pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and generally is subject to a specific budget. The independent auditors report periodically to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services they provided in accordance with the Committee’s pre-approvals and the fees for services performed to date. In 2024, the Audit Committee’s pre-approval requirement was not waived for any fees or services.

Approval of Entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement

As previously disclosed, the Company and Apple Inc. (the “Customer”) amended certain of the services agreements and related ancillary agreements (collectively, as amended, the “Services Agreements”) to provide for, among other things, the Customer’s prepayment of up to $252 million to the Company (the “2023 Funding Agreement”), the proceeds of which are intended to be used to fund 50% of the amounts due under our Satellite Procurement Agreement (the “SPA Agreement”) with Macdonald, Dettwiler and Associates Corporation (“MDA”), as well as launch, insurance and ancillary costs incurred in connection with the construction and launch of such satellites. In connection with the amendment of the foregoing, Thermo Funding II, LLC, a Thermo controlled affiliate, entered into (i) a Secured Guaranty with the Customer (the “Customer Guaranty”), whereby Thermo agreed to guaranty certain of our obligations under the 2023 Funding Agreement, the Services Agreements and the SPA Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) and (ii) a Guaranty (the “Thermo Guaranty”), which provides for Thermo to guarantee these obligations directly in favor of the Company, as previously approved by our stockholders on June 27, 2023 and effective December 7, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, payments under the 2023 Funding Agreement totaled $155 million.

Under the Thermo Guaranty, Thermo is obligated directly to us to make payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations if we fail to pay or otherwise do not make payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Customer or MDA. Thermo is also required to comply with certain covenants, which include advancing funds to us to allow us to maintain compliance with our minimum liquidity covenant and maintenance of a minimum asset level in excess of the obligations guaranteed by Thermo. In the event Thermo is required to pay amounts to us in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (each such amount, a “Guaranty Payment”), we will issue a number of shares of our common stock to Thermo equal to (i) the amount of the Guaranty Payment multiplied by (ii) the average of the five trailing volume-weighted average prices of the common stock for the trading days immediately preceding the date of such Guaranty Payment.

As consideration for the Thermo Guaranty, we issued to Thermo a warrant to purchase 666,668 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $30 per share. The right to purchase 333,334 shares under the Thermo warrant vested upon the effectiveness of Thermo’s guarantee in December 2023, and the remaining 333,334 shares may vest if and when Thermo advances funds under the Thermo Guaranty of $25 million or more. The Thermo warrant expires in December 2028.

Proposal Three

/ The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the approval of the entry into the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement.


						Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025 / 23

/ Other Voting Matters

In October 2024, we further amended the Services Agreements and entered into certain related agreements (collectively, the “Updated Services Agreements”) with the Customer for the Company to deliver expanded services over a new MSS network, including a new satellite constellation, expanded ground infrastructure, and increased global MSS licensing (collectively, the “Extended MSS Network”). In connection with the Updated Services Agreements, the Company, Customer, and Thermo amended the Customer Guaranty and agreed to amend the Thermo Guaranty to lower the amount of Guaranteed Obligations covered by the Thermo Guaranty to $100 million, with the effective date of such amendment to the Thermo Guaranty subject to the approval of our stockholders (other than Thermo, including its affiliates) as described below. The amendment to the Customer Guaranty and agreement to amend the Thermo Guaranty reflect the strengthened financial position of the Company, and the intention of the parties is for the Customer Guaranty and Thermo Guaranty to align to work in tandem. Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders (other than Thermo, including its affiliates) to approve our entry into an amendment to the Thermo Guaranty, substantially in the form included in Appendix A attached hereto (the “Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement”) to lower the amount of Guaranteed Obligations covered by the Thermo Guaranty to $100 million. The Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement will not impact the outstanding warrant and no additional warrants or rights to purchase additional shares of our common stock will be issued to Thermo in connection with the entry into such amendment. As discussed above, Mr. Monroe, our Executive Chairman and controlling stockholder, controls Thermo.

Vote Required to Approve the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement

Because the Amended Thermo Guaranty Agreement provides for a potential transaction between Thermo, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, which may have a value greater than $5 million, as determined by the Strategic Review Committee, it is a Related Party Transaction under our Certificate of Incorporation. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, Related Party Transactions must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of shares of common stock of the Company owned by stockholders other than Thermo (including its affiliates) and voting affirmatively or negatively (i.e., votes cast) on the matter. Shares represented by proxies that are marked to indicate abstentions from this proposal and broker non-votes with respect to this proposal will have no effect.

Thermo and its affiliates are not eligible to vote on Proposal No. 3.

Approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation

Article EIGHTH of our Certificate of Incorporation currently contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that exculpation from liability is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). Delaware amended Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL to allow a Delaware corporation to include a similar provision in its certificate of incorporation eliminating the personal liability of certain officers for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer in certain circumstances. As further described below, we are asking our stockholders to approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for such officer exculpation, similar to our existing ability to exculpate our directors.

Description of the Amendment

As now permitted by the DGCL, we propose to amend Article EIGHTH of our Certificate of Incorporation to read in its entirety as follows (additions are indicated by underlining and boldface type):

EIGHTH

A director or officer of the Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or the stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, respectively, except to the extent that exculpation from liability is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as in effect at the time such liability is determined. No amendment or repeal of this Article Eighth shall apply to or have any effect on the liability of any director or officer with respect to acts or omissions of such director or officer prior to such amendment or repeal. To the maximum extent permitted from time to time under the law of the State of Delaware, the Corporation renounces any interest or expectancy of the Corporation in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time being presented to its officers, directors or stockholders, other than (i) those officers, directors or stockholders who are employees of the Corporation and (ii) those opportunities demonstrated by the Corporation to have been presented to officers or directors of the Corporation in their capacity as such. No amendment or repeal of this Article Eighth shall apply to or have any effect on any opportunities which such officer, director or stockholder becomes aware prior to such amendment or repeal.

Reasons for the Amendment

The Strategic Review Committee and our Board desire to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate the personal liability of our officers for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. In considering the proposed amendment, the Strategic Review Committee and our Board considered the narrow class and type of claims for which officers are permitted to be exculpated from personal liability, which is more limited than the protection currently permitted for our directors.

Proposal Four

/ The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide for officer exculpation.


						Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025 / 25

/ Other Voting Matters

As amended, the DGCL only permits, and the amendment would only provide, exculpation for direct claims brought by stockholders, and would not limit any officer’s personal liability for:

•breach of the duty of care claims brought by the Company itself or derivative claims made by stockholders on behalf of the Company;

•any breach of the duty of loyalty;

•any acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; or

•any transaction from which the officer derived an improper personal benefit.

Our Board believes that the amendment will limit concerns about personal liability, which will empower officers to best exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests. The nature of the role of officers often requires them to make difficult judgments and decisions on important and complex matters on a time-sensitive basis, which can create risk of investigations, claims, actions, suits or proceedings seeking to impose personal liability on the basis of hindsight, especially in the current litigious environment and regardless of merit. Our Board believes the amendment better aligns the protections available to our officers with those currently available to our directors and that it would discourage plaintiffs’ lawyers from adding officers to direct claims relating to breaches of the duty of care which, if occurs, can lead to increased litigation and insurance costs.

In addition, our Board believes it is important to protect our officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL to continue to attract and retain experienced and highly qualified officers. Other corporations that are incorporated in Delaware have adopted and may continue to adopt amendments to their certificates of incorporation that limit the personal liability of officers. Our failure to adopt the amendment could impact our ability to recruit and retain experienced and highly qualified officers, who may conclude that the potential personal exposure to liabilities, costs of defense and other risks of proceedings outweighs the benefits of serving or continuing to serve as an officer of the Company.

For these reasons, upon the recommendation of the Strategic Review Committee, the Board declared the amendment advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, authorized and approved the proposed amendment and resolved to submit the amendment to our stockholders for approval at our Annual Meeting and recommends that our stockholders approve the amendment.

Effects and Timing of the Amendment

If adopted, the amendment would only provide for the exculpation of officers in connection with direct claims brought by stockholders for breach of the officers’ fiduciary duty of care. Further, the amendment will not eliminate the liability of officers for any act or omission occurring prior to the date on which it becomes effective.

If the proposed amendment is approved by our stockholders, it will become effective immediately upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Delaware, which we expect to file promptly after our Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the existing Article EIGHTH would be replaced by the proposed Article EIGHTH as provided above.


26 / Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025

Other Voting Matters /

If the proposed amendment is not approved by our stockholders or, if in accordance with the DGCL and notwithstanding stockholder approval of the proposed amendment, our Board elects to abandon the proposed amendment without further action by the stockholders at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, then Article EIGHTH of our Certificate of Incorporation will remain unchanged.

Vote Required to Approve the Amendment to Our Certificate of Incorporation to Provide for Officer Exculpation

Under the DGCL, approval of this Proposal No. 4 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “DGCL Stockholder Approval”). Additionally, because the proposed amendment could benefit certain officers of the Company who are affiliates of Thermo, the Strategic Review Committee has determined that the proposed amendment is a transaction between Thermo, on one hand, and the Company, on the other, that requires a stockholder vote pursuant to the DGCL, such that it is a Related Party Transaction under our Certificate of Incorporation. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, Related Party Transactions must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of shares of common stock of the Company owned by stockholders other than Thermo (including its affiliates) and voting affirmatively or negatively (i.e., votes cast) on the matter (the “Majority of the Minority Stockholder Approval”). For the avoidance of doubt, the approval of this Proposal No. 4 requires that the Company obtain both the DGCL Stockholder Approval and the Majority of the Minority Stockholder Approval.

Shares represented by proxies that are marked to indicate abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as votes against this Proposal No. 4 for purposes of calculating the DGCL Stockholder Approval. However, shares represented by proxies that are marked to indicate abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect for purposes of calculating the Majority of the Minority Stockholder Approval.

Thermo and its affiliates will be eligible to vote on Proposal No. 4 for purposes of the DGCL Stockholder Approval but will not be eligible to vote on Proposal No. 4 for purposes of the Majority of the Minority Stockholder Approval.

Executive Officers and Compensation /

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") should be read in conjunction with the compensation tables beginning on page 33. Our named executive officers ("NEOs") for 2024 were:

•James Monroe III, Executive Chairman

•Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer

•Rebecca S. Clary, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

•L. Barbee Ponder IV, General Counsel and Vice President of Regulatory Affairs

Overview

Our compensation program for executive officers is intended to:

•provide each officer with a conservative base salary; and

•create an incentive for retention and achievement of our long-term business goals using a sizable, multi-year stock or option bonus program.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for evaluating the performance of, and reviewing and approving all compensation paid to, our executive officers, all of whom are NEOs for 2024. To preserve the exemption from short swing liability under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Board approves equity awards to all executive officers and directors.

Results of Most Recent Say-on-Pay Vote

Our stockholders also have the opportunity every three years to cast an advisory say-on-pay vote on our NEOs' compensation. At our 2023 annual meeting, our stockholders expressed support for our executive compensation program, with approximately 99% of the stockholders who voted on the “say-on-pay” proposal voting in support of the proposal. The Compensation Committee believes that the result of the advisory vote is valuable in assessing its compensation decisions and considered the vote in reviewing and evaluating its executive compensation programs. The Compensation Committee also considered numerous other factors in evaluating the Company’s executive compensation programs as discussed in this proxy statement, including the Compensation Committee's desire to continue to enhance the alignment of our NEOs’ interests with those of our stockholders.

While each of these factors (among other things) informed the Compensation Committee’s decisions regarding the NEOs compensation, the Compensation Committee did not implement any changes to the Company’s executive compensation programs as a result of the stockholder advisory vote. The next stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation will be at our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders.

Compensation Philosophy

Our goal is to create performance-based compensation that motivates management to increase stockholder value. Our Executive Chairman receives compensation described under “Director Compensation,” above for his services as a director and does not receive additional compensation as an executive officer. Our Chief Executive Officer also receives separate compensation for his services as a director, also described under "Director Compensation" above, which is in addition to the compensation he received as an executive officer. We compensate our other executive officers with a conservative base salary and incentivize them to remain with us through stock-based compensation and annual discretionary bonuses (which may be paid in cash or stock). The Compensation Committee periodically reviews peer group or other market data in setting base salaries or incentive compensation for senior executives.


						Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025 / 29

/ Executive Officers and Compensation

We do not believe that risks related to our compensation policies or practices are reasonably likely to have a material effect on us, due in part to the structure of our compensation programs and risk mitigation provided by the Board and, where appropriate, the Strategic Review Committee's oversight of significant business decisions.

Elements of Compensation

The principal elements of our compensation for our NEOs are base salary, discretionary annual bonus awards, and the opportunity to receive equity-based compensation pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan through time or incentive based awards, including under our annual bonus plan.

Base Salaries. We have established base salaries according to each named executive officer’s position, responsibilities and performance with the goal of providing a fixed level of compensation necessary to attract and retain the executive officers needed to manage our business successfully. Base salary adjustments, if any, are typically considered and approved during the fourth quarter of each calendar year, with the effective date being the first pay period in the following calendar year. Effective January 2024, the Compensation Committee approved an increase in the base salaries of Ms. Clary and Mr. Ponder of 10% and 5%, respectively. Dr. Jacobs' base salary was not adjusted during 2024. All of our executive officers are at-will employees.

Annual Bonus Plan. The Company has an annual bonus plan designed to reward designated key employees (including the NEOs) to meet and exceed the Company's financial performance goals for the designated calendar year. The bonus pool available for distribution is determined based on the Company's Adjusted EBITDA performance during that year. The bonus may be paid in cash or the Company's common stock, as determined by the Compensation Committee. For the 2024 plan year, the aggregate amount that could have been distributed under the pool was $2.3 million if the Company's Adjusted EBITDA for the plan year had been $104.0 million. For each 1% of Adjusted EBITDA above or below this plan year target Adjusted EBITDA, adjustments are made to either increase or decrease the distribution. The Company's Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of the 2024 bonus plan was $135.3 million, which resulted in a total bonus distribution of approximately $2.7 million. Each participant's award was determined at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. In March 2025, Dr. Jacobs, Ms. Clary, and Mr. Ponder received a combination of shares and cash worth $500,000, $200,000, and $21,000, respectively. A similar plan is in place for 2025.

In the event the Company's financial statements are restated or otherwise adjusted, resulting in a reduction to Adjusted EBITDA, then participants who have received distributions under the bonus plan in excess of the amounts they would have been entitled to receive, shall be liable to repay such excess to the Company.

Stock Grants. In December 2024, the Company granted restricted stock awards of 5,426 shares to each of Ms. Clary and Mr. Ponder which vest one-half in December 2025 and one-half in December 2026 and are designed to recognize performance and to encourage retention. See the 2024 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table below for additional information.

Performance-Based Stock Grant Program - Terrestrial Spectrum Authority. Mr. Ponder has the opportunity to receive additional stock awards based on the Company's attainment of certain international terrestrial spectrum authorities around the world. In December 2024, Mr. Ponder was granted 5,333 shares under this program upon the Company's receipt of terrestrial spectrum authority in one country.

Prior Market-Based Stock Awards to our CEO. In connection with his 2023 appointment to Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Jacobs received 2.7 million performance-based restricted stock awards which vest at any time during a four-year period from the date of grant, September 2023, based on the achievement of certain sustained stock price targets between $30.00 and $150.00. No portion of this grant vested during 2024.

All Other Compensation. While we do not have a pension plan or a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, the Company provides benefits to employees under a 401(k) plan. Under this plan, we contribute $0.50 for each $1.00 contributed to the plan by all U.S. employees, up to 6% of the employee’s base salary. We also provide limited perquisites to NEOs consisting primarily of premiums for term life insurance policies.

Executive Officers and Compensation /

New CFO Compensation for 2025. On March 27, 2025, after reviewing a market survey conducted by the Committee’s independent compensation consultant, the Board and Compensation Committee approved certain changes to Ms. Clary's compensation, including (i) an increase in her base salary to $420,000, to be effective January 1, 2025, and (ii) the grant of a performance-based stock award with a target grant date value of $2 million, which will vest at any time during a four-year period from the date of grant based on the achievement of certain sustained stock price targets between $30 and $75. All other elements of Ms. Clary's compensation remain unchanged, including annual grants of restricted stock awards and annual discretionary bonus plans.

Tax Considerations. The Compensation Committee considers certain tax implications when designing our executive compensation programs and certain specific awards. However, the Compensation Committee believes that stockholders’ interests may best be served by offering compensation that is not fully deductible, where appropriate, to attract, retain and motivate talented executives. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee and the Board may approve compensation arrangements that do not qualify for income tax deductibility.

Hedging Policy

It is the Company’s policy that its directors, officers and employees, as well as certain contractors and consultants, may not engage in hedging activities with respect to the Company’s securities at any time. Such activities include short sales (a sale of securities that are not owned by the seller at the time of the sale), including short sales against the box; buying or selling puts or calls; and frequent trading (for example, daily or weekly) to take advantage of fluctuations in stock prices.

Insider Trading Policy and Timing of Equity Awards

The Company has an insider trading policy applicable to directors, officers and employees, as well as certain contractors and consultants ("Covered Individuals"). The policy prohibits any Covered Individual, as well as any family member of any Covered Individual, from engaging in transactions involving the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities while having access to material nonpublic information, as well as from trading in the securities of other companies with which the Company does business while in possession of material nonpublic information about such company or its securities. The Company's insider trading policy provides for trading windows and has a pre-clearance process prior to the trade of the Company's securities. Additionally, the policy confirms that the Company will not engage in transactions in its securities in violation of applicable securities laws. Additionally, the policy confirms that the Company will not engage in transactions in its securities in violation of applicable securities laws. The Company believes that its insider trading policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and listing standards applicable to the Company. A copy of the Company's insider trading policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our 2024 annual report on Form 10-K.

Generally, our Board or Compensation Committee does not approve grants of equity awards during a blackout period and does not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of such an award. Further, we do not have a policy or practice of timing the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. As noted herein, the Company does not current grant stock options to its executive officers, although it does award stock options to its directors as part of the director compensation program, as discussed in "Director Compensation" above.

Our Board or Compensation Committee does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information and the timing of filings of material nonpublic information is not based on equity award grant dates.

Clawback Policy

In accordance with SEC Rule 10D-1 and Nasdaq rules, the Board adopted a clawback policy (the "Clawback Policy"). The Clawback Policy provides for the recovery of erroneously awarded compensation paid to the Company's executive officers in the event of a restatement of the Company's financial statements. In additional to the recovery required by the SEC rules and Nasdaq, our Clawback Policy also permits our Board to recoup certain incentive compensation paid to an executive officer who has engaged in certain improper misconduct or was awarded compensation, for other than Company performance, achieved without merit, as described in the Clawback Policy.

Compensation Committee Report for 2024

The undersigned comprise the members of the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis presented above with the Company’s management. Based upon that review and those discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

2024 Option Exercises and Stock Vested

The following table sets forth certain information regarding stock awards that vested during 2024 for the NEOs. In connection with his service as an executive officer of the Company, Mr. Monroe did not exercise any options or have any restricted stock vest during 2024; therefore, he is not included in the table below. In his capacity as a director, Dr. Jacobs was granted restricted stock awards and options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock; certain of these restricted stock awards vested during 2024 and Dr. Jacobs did not exercise any of these options during 2024. Refer to the Director Compensation table above for more discussion of equity compensation granted to Mr. Monroe and Dr. Jacobs.

1.The value realized upon exercise represents the excess of the market price of the underlying securities on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the options.

2.The aggregate market value realized upon the vesting of restricted stock awards represents the aggregate market value of Globalstar common stock on the vesting date, which was determined using the closing price on the vesting date, or if such day is a weekend or holiday, on the immediately preceding trading day.

Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Jacobs Employment Agreement

Dr. Jacobs is employed under an amended and restated employment agreement between Globalstar and Dr. Jacobs. There is no termination date in the agreement, and employment may be terminated by the Company or Dr. Jacobs under customary circumstances. The employment agreement provides for payment of base salary and an initial equity grant (as discussed in Compensation, Discussion and Analysis above) as well as the ability to earn an annual bonus. Dr. Jacobs is also entitled to participate in the Company's benefit plans. Upon termination of employment, Dr. Jacobs shall be entitled to receive all earned but unpaid base salary, vested benefits, and any unpaid business expenses. Upon certain termination conditions, not including a change of control, unvested restricted stock units may continue to vest for a period of two years. Upon termination in connection with a change of control, Dr. Jacobs will receive a final measurement treatment of any vested restricted stock units, meaning that the vesting of Dr. Jacobs’ restricted stock units will be measured based on the stock price vesting requirements at the time of the change of control, and all restricted stock units that remain unvested after this measurement will be forfeited.

Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control: Dr. Jacobs, Ms. Clary and Mr. Ponder

Other than agreements with respect to compensation, we have not entered into employment agreements with our executive officers, other than Dr. Jacobs. Voluntary termination of employment or retirement would not result in any payments to Ms. Clary or Mr. Ponder beyond the amounts each would be entitled to receive under our retirement plan. We pay life insurance premiums for all U.S.-based employees that will be paid (based on a multiple of salary) to the employee’s beneficiary upon death.

Severance payments may be paid to eligible U.S.-based employees if an employee is terminated due to a reduction in workforce and upon the employee’s execution of a release of claims. Under this plan, Ms. Clary and Mr. Ponder would receive a lump sum payment equal to six to eight weeks' base salary. Other severance, if any, is determined at the time of dismissal and is subject to negotiation.


36 / Globalstar Proxy Statement 2025

Executive Officers and Compensation /

Under the Plan, if a participant dies, becomes disabled or is terminated for cause, unvested awards are forfeited. For vested option awards, the participant or his survivor generally has 12 months to exercise. If a participant is terminated for cause, all unexercised vested options also are forfeited. If a change in control occurs, any unvested options or restricted shares outstanding would vest immediately. A change in control occurs upon: (1) a person or group (other than us, an existing controlling stockholder, or a trustee for an employee benefit plan) acquiring beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the voting power in the election of directors; (2) upon merger or consolidation; (3) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets; or (4) the sale or exchange by the stockholders of more than 50% of our voting stock; provided however, that a change in control is not deemed to have occurred if the majority of the board of directors of the surviving company is comprised of our directors. The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, also may take other actions to provide for the acceleration of the exercisability or vesting of other awards under the Plan prior to, upon or following a change in control.

The following table shows the amount of potential payments to the NEOs under the listed events, based on the assumption that the triggering event took place on December 31, 2024. In connection with his service as an executive officer of the Company, Mr. Monroe did not receive any compensation nor does Mr. Monroe have any outstanding equity awards at 2024 fiscal year-end, and therefore he is not reflected in the table below. There are no unvested stock options for Messrs. Jacobs and Ponder or Ms. Clary, and therefore amounts are not reflected in the table below.

b.The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following to the extent applicable: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; (iii) for awards that are granted and vest in the same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; and (iv) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value. The valuation assumptions used to calculate fair values did not materially differ from those disclosed at the time of grant.

The amounts deducted or added in calculating the equity award adjustments are set forth below. Columns reporting fair value at the end of the prior year of equity awards that failed to meet vesting conditions in the year and value of dividends or other earnings paid on stock or option awards not otherwise reflected in fair value or total compensation are omitted, because they are not applicable.

4.The dollar amounts reported represent the average amount of “compensation actually paid” to the NEOs as a group (excluding Dr. Jacobs and Mr. Kagan), as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K.

In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to average total compensation for the NEOs as a group (excluding Dr. Jacobs and Mr. Kagan) for each year to determine the compensation actually paid, using the same methodology described above in Note 2.
