Inseego Corp. (NASDAQ:INSG) (the "Company"), a technology leader in 5G mobile and fixed wireless solutions for mobile network operators, Fortune 500 enterprises, and SMBs, announced today that it has entered into a series of agreements, as part of its overall capital structure management to reduce its total debt and restructure its outstanding 3.25% convertible notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes"). As part of this initiative, the Company's three largest noteholders, whose holdings represent more than $125 million face value or nearly 80% of the outstanding 2025 Notes, have agreed to sell to the Company for cash, or exchange for long-term debt and equity of the Company, all of their 2025 Notes. This meaningful reduction and long-term extension of debt was executed at a 30% discount to the face value of the notes, further contributing to the improvement of the Company's capital structure.

(NASDAQ:INSG)宣布,作为其资本结构管理的一部分,已签署了一系列协议,以减少其总债务并重组其到期时间为2025年的3.25%可转换债券(以下简称“2025 Notes”)。作为此计划的一部分,公司的三个最大的持票人,其持股面值超过1.25亿美元,或几乎相当于2025 Notes总额的80%,已同意将他们所有的2025 Notes出售给公司以换取现金或公司的长期债务和股权。此次有意义的减负和长期债务的延期已按票面价值的30%折价执行,进一步促进了公司的资本结构改善。

In implementing this strategic capital structure initiative, the Company executed three overall transactions on June 28, 2024, as follows: (1) Convertible Debt Repurchase: the Company agreed to purchase all of the $45.9 million in face value of the 2025 Notes (the "Highbridge Notes") held by certain entities managed by Highbridge Capital Management, LLC (such entities, "Highbridge"), the second largest noteholder, for $32.1 million in cash, or $700 per $1,000 face value, plus accrued interest, the repurchase and debt reduction of which is expected to close on or about July 1, 2024; (2) Repurchase Loan: to finance a portion of the Convertible Debt Repurchase, the Company entered into a loan facility and borrowed $19.5 million from (i) South Ocean Funding, LLC ("South Ocean"), which is an affiliate of Golden Harbor Ltd. ("Golden Harbor") and Tavistock Financial, LLC, and (ii) certain participant lenders (the "Participating Lenders"); and (3) Convertible Debt Exchange: the Company entered into binding term sheets to exchange $80.0 million of face value that represents all of the 2025 Notes held by North Sound Partners and Golden Harbor (the "Noteholders"), the largest and third-largest noteholders, respectively, at the same 30% discount as the Highbridge Notes purchase, for a combination of new long-term debt and equity.

为执行此项战略性资本结构方案,公司于2024年6月28日执行了三项综合交易,具体如下:(1)可转换债务回购:公司同意以3,210万美元的现金或票面价值的每1,000美元面值的700美元加上应计利息,收购由Highbridge Capital Management,LLC(以下简称“Highbridge”)管理的某些实体持有的所有4590万美元面值的2025 Notes(以下简称“Highbridge Notes”),第二大持票人,回购和债务减少预计将于2024年7月1日左右完成;(2)回购贷款:为筹集部分可转换债务回购资金,公司签署了贷款协议,从South Ocean Funding,LLC(以下简称“South Ocean”),即Golden Harbor Ltd.(以下简称“Golden Harbor”)和 Tavistock Financial,LLC的关联方和某些参与贷方(以下简称“参与贷方”)中借款1950万美元;和(3)可转换债务交换:公司已签署有约束力的期限表以按与Highbridge Notes购买相同的30%折扣为North Sound Partners和Golden Harbor(以下简称“Noteholders”)持有的以8000万美元面值代表的所有2025 Notes,即最大和第三大持票人,换取新的长期债务和股权组合。

"With today's announcement, we are delivering on our commitment and taking meaningful steps to significantly reduce our debt burden and strengthen the Company's financial position," said Inseego Executive Chairman Philip Brace.
