Item 1.01  Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 21, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Loral Space & Communications Inc. and various affiliated entities pursuant to which one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries will acquire all of the partnership interests of Loral/DASA Globalstar, L.P. (“LDG”) and associated interests in subsidiaries of LDG, in exchange for up to $6.5 million in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. LDG and its subsidiaries serve as the Company’s independent gateway operator in Brazil and own and operate three gateways in Brazil. Under certain circumstances, the purchase price may be reduced by the amount of outstanding service fees owed to the Company by LDG. The closing is contingent, among other things, on obtaining approval of the Brazilian telecommunications agency and the registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of the shares of Common Stock to be issued in the transaction..
