Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
| On November 6, 2024, the Issuer and NS Trading entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which NS Trading exchanged $55,544,000 principal amount of the Issuer's 3.25% convertible notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes") for $21,773,248 principal amount of new 9% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"), 1,676,669 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Exchange Shares"), warrants to purchase 1,089,835 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Exchange Warrants") and approximately $25,000 in accrued interest on the 2025 Notes. At the time it initially agreed to a term sheet regarding the exchange transaction, NS Trading participated as a lender in a loan facility under a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Facility") with the Issuer, as borrower, Inseego Wireless, Inc. and Inseego North America LLC, as guarantors, and the other participating lenders. In connection with NS Trading's participation in the Loan Facility, the Issuer issued warrants to purchase 56,410 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Loan Warrants") to NS Trading.
The 2029 Notes bear interest at a rate of 9% per annum from issuance until their maturity on May 1, 2029, which interest is payable in cash. The holders of the 2029 Notes may require the Issuer to redeem them upon certain fundamental changes affecting the Issuer, and the Issuer may elect to redeem all or any portion of the 2029 Notes for cash at any time and from time to time on or before the trading day prior to the maturity of the 2029 Notes. The 2029 Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of Company's assets. The Exchange Warrants are exercisable at a price of $12.12 per share of the Issuer's Common Stock (subject to customary adjustment terms) and expire on November 6, 2028. The Loan Warrants are exercisable at a price of $12.12 per share of the Issuer's Common Stock (subject to customary adjustment terms) and expire on June 28, 2028.
In connection with the Exchange Agreement, NS Trading also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "2024 Registration Rights Agreement") with the Issuer, which provides NS Trading with customary registration rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock that it acquired in the Exchange and the shares of Common Stock that it may acquire upon exercise of the Exchange Warrants and Loan Warrants. Pursuant to the 2024 Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC within six months following the closing date of the exchange. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides NS Trading with "piggy-back" registration rights and indemnification rights, subject to certain requirements and customary conditions.
The summaries set forth herein regarding the Exchange Agreement, Exchange Warrants, Loan Warrants, 2024 Registration Rights Agreement, the 2029 Notes and the Loan Facility are qualified in each case by reference to the full text of the applicable document, each of which was filed by the Issuer as an exhibit to its SEC filings.
The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock over which they exercise beneficial ownership in the belief that the shares of Common Stock are an attractive investment. The Reporting Persons have had and anticipate having further discussions with directors and officers of the Issuer, other shareholders or third parties in connection with the Reporting Persons' investment in the Issuer. Further discussions may include one or more members of the Issuer's management, the board, other stockholders of the Issuer and other persons to discuss the Issuer's business, strategies, the composition of the board of directors of the Issuer, and other matters related to the Issuer. These discussions may review options for enhancing shareholder value through various strategic alternatives or operational or management initiatives. The Reporting Persons intend to review their respective investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may from time to time and at any time in the future depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer's financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the board, price levels of the shares of Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, take such actions with respect to the investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate. These actions may include: (i) acquiring additional shares of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, notes, other securities, or derivative or other instruments that are based upon or relate to the value of the shares of Common Stock or the Issuer (collectively, "Securities") of the Issuer in the open market or otherwise; (ii) disposing of any or all of their Securities in the open market or otherwise; (iii) engaging in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Securities; or (iv) proposing or considering one or more of the actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. |
