Exhibit 1.01
Inseego Corp.
Conflict Minerals Report
For The Year Ended December 31, 2016
This report, for the year ended December 31, 2016, is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Conflict Minerals Rule” or “CMR”). The CMR was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to conflict minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dodd-Frank Act”). The CMR imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose manufactured products contain conflict minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. “Conflict Minerals” are defined as cassiterite, columbite- tantalite, gold, wolframite and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (“3TG”). These requirements apply to registrants whatever the geographic origin of the Conflict Minerals and whether or not they fund armed conflict.
If a registrant can establish that the Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or certain adjoining countries (the “Covered Countries”) or from recycled or scrap sources, it must submit a Form SD which describes the reasonable country of origin inquiry completed by the registrant.
If a registrant has reason to believe that any of the Conflict Minerals in its supply chain may have originated in any of the Covered Countries, or if it is unable to determine the country of origin of those Conflict Minerals, then the registrant must exercise due diligence on the Conflict Minerals’ source and chain of custody. The registrant must annually submit a Conflict Minerals Report to the SEC that includes a description of those due diligence measures.
We have not been able to definitively conclude that our supply chain is “conflict-free” because we have been unable to determine the origin of all of the 3TG used in our products, notwithstanding a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry.
1. Company Overview
This report has been prepared by management of Inseego Corp. (herein referred to as “Inseego” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The information includes the activities of Inseego and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Inseego is a leader in the design and development of intelligent wireless solutions based on 2G, 3G and 4G technologies. The Company delivers specialized wireless solutions to carriers, distributors, retailers, OEMs and vertical markets worldwide.

3. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI) and RCOI conclusion:
We conducted an analysis of our products and found that the above SEC defined “Conflict Minerals”, which are tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG), can be found in Inseego products. Therefore, Inseego products are subject to the reporting obligations of Rule 13p-1.
Despite having conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry, we could not confirm the origin of some of the 3TG used in our products.

1



Due to the breadth and complexity of Inseego’s products and respective supply chain, it will take time for many of our suppliers to verify the origin of all of the minerals. We strive to further develop transparency into our supply chain by using our supply chain due diligence processes, driving accountability within the supply chain by leveraging the industry standard CFSI/CFS (Conflict Free Sourcing Initiatives/Conflict Free Smelter) program, and continuing our outreach efforts.
4. Conflict Minerals Status Analysis and Conflict Status conclusion:
We have not been able to definitively conclude that our supply chain is “conflict-free” because we have been unable to determine the origin of all of the 3TG used in our products notwithstanding a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry.
5. Conflict Minerals Policy
We have adopted the following Conflict Minerals policy:
Inseego wants to make sure that our supply chain does not contribute to human rights violations in any country and we expect our suppliers, wherever they operate, to meet standards for socially and environmentally responsible operations.
The DRC and the Covered Countries are the source of many of the minerals necessary to produce consumer electronics, such as tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (3TG).
These valuable raw materials have contributed to the tragic ongoing conflict in the DRC’s Eastern region.
It is the Company’s goal to use DRC Conflict Free minerals (as defined in the Rule) in our products, but at the same time support the DRC and the Covered Countries through responsible sourcing. We want to ensure that our suppliers are taking the necessary measures to verify that their supply chain at every level is free of Conflict Minerals by driving accountability, 3TG traceability and responsible sourcing.
The policy is included in our Sustainability Report which is posted on our website at https://www.inseego.com/corporate-citizenship/.
6. Due Diligence Process
6.1. Design of Due Diligence
Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the framework in the 2nd edition of The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (the “OECD Guidance”).
6.2. Management Systems
As described above, Inseego has adopted a company policy which is available in our Sustainability Report, posted on our website at: https://www.inseego.com/corporate-citizenship/.
Inseego is committed to having a supply chain free of Conflict Minerals and this commitment has been communicated to our suppliers through the reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) process. We have included a Conflict Minerals review as part of our new supplier selection process.
We encourage our supply chain to use 3TG from smelters that have been audited and verified as conflict free by the Conflict Free Smelter (CFS)1 program as they become available.
6.3. Internal Team
Inseego has a team lead by the Vice President Global Procurement & Logistics supporting the Conflict Minerals compliance procedure. This procedure describes the support that the different Company departments provide in order to generate and maintain the information needed to achieve the Company’s compliance with the Dodd-Frank Section 1502.

6.4. Supplier Engagement
With respect to the OECD requirement to strengthen engagement with suppliers, we have contacted all relevant suppliers and asked them to complete the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “Template”) developed by the Electronics Industry Citizenship Coalition EICC and the Global e-sustainability initiative GeSI and maintained by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI), and are in the process of following up with all suppliers who failed to respond or who provided inadequate or questionable responses.
6.5. Maintain records
Inseego will be retaining relevant documentation for a minimum of 5 years, in accordance with the OECD due diligence recommendations.
6.6. Steps to be taken to mitigate risk and maturing due diligence program
As we move forward in further refining our due diligence program, we intend to take the following steps to continue to mitigate any possible risk that the necessary Conflict Minerals in our products could benefit armed groups in the DRC or adjoining countries:
Continue to enhance supplier communication, training and escalation process to improve due diligence data accuracy and completion.
Continue to influence our supply chain to encourage the smelters they use to obtain CFS status, where possible.
Include a review of our Conflict Minerals program and policy when engaging with new suppliers.
7. Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain
Because of our size, the breadth and complexity of our products, and the constant evolution of our supply chain, it is difficult to identify those sources upstream from our direct suppliers. However, we identified 112 suppliers for our products manufactured during the reporting year 2016 and leveraged the Template and CFSI smelter database to identify and assess the potential conflict mineral risks in Inseego’s supply chain.
8. Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Risks
Inseego will encourage our suppliers who are sourcing from non-Conflict Free smelters in their efforts to move towards using Conflict Free smelters within a reasonable time frame. The time frame will be dependent on the criticality of the specific part and the availability of alternative suppliers.
9. Carry out Independent Third Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence at Identified Points in the Supply Chain
Inseego does not have a direct relationship with 3TG smelters and refiners, nor do we perform direct audits of these entities that provide our supply chain the 3TG. However, we do rely upon the industry-wide initiatives to influence smelters and refineries to get audited and certified through CFSI’s CFS program.
10. Report on Supply Chain Due Diligence and Results
10.1. Due Diligence Process
We conducted a survey of our active suppliers described above using the Template developed jointly by the companies of Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition® (EICC®) and The Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI). The Template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company’s supply chain. It includes questions regarding a company’s conflict-free policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, and a listing of the smelters the company and its suppliers use. In addition, the template contains questions about the origin of conflict minerals included in their products, as well as supplier due diligence. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the tool is available on CFSI’s website. The Template is being widely adopted by many companies in their due diligence processes related to conflict minerals.
10.2. Survey Responses
Of the 112 suppliers identified for our products manufactured during the reporting year 2016 that were within the scope of RCOI, we received 20 responses to our request for information on the Template. We have relied on these suppliers’ responses to provide us with information about the source of conflict minerals contained in our products. Our suppliers are similarly reliant upon information provided by their suppliers. We reviewed these responses against criteria we developed to determine which we believed

3



required further inquiry. These criteria included incomplete responses, inconsistencies within responses, incomplete or missing supporting documentation of mineral origin, and responses that failed to identify smelters.

It is important to note that in the past year, Inseego was created through the reorganization of Novatel Wireless, Digicore, and Feeney Wireless. As such, there have been changes and integration efforts across the supply chain that may have adversely impacted the supplier response rate. However, with the reorganization complete, Inseego plans to prioritize conflict minerals management in its supply chain management efforts, particularly through the supplier response rate to the Template and the CFSI working groups focused on engaging smelters that have yet to become compliant with the Conflict-Free Smelter Program or are not yet active and committed to undergo a CFSP audit or are not yet participating in one of the cross-recognized certification programs.
10.3. Efforts to Determine Country of Origin of Mine or 3TG
Tracing materials back to their mine of origin is a complex aspect of responsible sourcing in our supply chain. By adopting methodology outlined by the CFSI’s joint industry programs and outreach initiatives and requirement that our suppliers conform with the same standards that meets the OECD guidelines, and report to us using the Template, we have determined that the smelters and refiners we gathered from our supply chain shall represent the most reasonable known mine of origin information available. Through this industry joint effort, we made reasonable determination of the mines or locations of origin of the 3TG in our supply chain. Inseego also requested that all of our suppliers support the initiative by following the sourcing initiative and working to align their declared sources with the “Known” and “Conflict Free” lists of sourced metals.
10.4. Smelters or Refiners Identified
At Inseego, we adopted the CFSI’s industry approach and traced back the origin of 3TG by identifying smelters, refineries or recyclers supplier sources. Inseego leveraged CFSI and its CFS program to trace the mine of origin of the 3TG to its ore level. The CFS program audits smelters and refineries to ensure that all certified smelters and refineries only use ore that is conflict free from the DRC and covered countries.

As the result of our due diligence efforts, we have gathered 293 smelters and refineries names from our supply chain. Among these 293 smelters and refineries, 261 are compliant with the Conflict-Free Smelter Program or are active and have committed to undergo a CFSP audit or are participating in one of the cross-recognized certification programs. We were unable to determine the origin of 3TG metals processed by the 32 smelters that had not undergone a third-party audit as of July 19, 2017. Many of our suppliers reported smelter information at the company level rather than limiting their response to smelters affiliated with products sold to Inseego. As a result, some smelters reported may not be affiliated with our products.

Set forth below is the list of identified smelters and refineries known by CFSI identified by our supply chain so far and their country of origin.
Currently identified smelters and refineries known by CFSI and country of origin identified by Inseego’s supply chain are set forth below:
