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.

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.

爲執行此項戰略性資本結構方案,公司於2024年6月28日執行了三項綜合交易,具體如下:(1)可轉換債務回購:公司同意以3,210萬美元的現金或票面價值的每1,000美元面值的700美元加上應計利息,收購由Highbridge Capital Management,LLC(以下簡稱“Highbridge”)管理的某些實體持有的所有4590萬美元面值的2025 Notes(以下簡稱“Highbridge Notes”),第二大持票人,回購和債務減少預計將於2024年7月1日左右完成;(2)回購貸款:爲籌集部分可轉換債務回購資金,公司簽署了貸款協議,從South Ocean Funding,LLC(以下簡稱“South Ocean”),即Golden Harbor Ltd.(以下簡稱“Golden Harbor”)和 Tavistock Financial,LLC的關聯方和某些參與貸方(以下簡稱“參與貸方”)中借款1950萬美元;和(3)可轉換債務交換:公司已簽署有約束力的期限表以按與Highbridge Notes購買相同的30%折扣爲North Sound Partners和Golden Harbor(以下簡稱“Noteholders”)持有的以8000萬美元面值代表的所有2025 Notes,即最大和第三大持票人,換取新的長期債務和股權組合。

"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.

To finance a portion of the $32.1 million Convertible Debt Repurchase of the Highbridge Notes, the Company borrowed $19.5 million (the "Loan") pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with South Ocean and the Participating Lenders, which consist of Philip Brace, the Company's Executive Chairman, and North Sound Ventures, LP.
