This Amendment No. 1 (Amendment No. 1) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed on August 10, 2018 (the Original Filing) by Golden Harbor Ltd. (Golden Harbor) and Joe Lewis. The Original Filing remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended, restated or superseded by information contained in this Amendment No. 1. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment No. 1 have the meanings set forth in the Original Filing.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:
Co-Investment Agreements
On September 7, 2018, Mr. Avery, Golden Harbor, and Aviva Holdings, Ltd. entered into a Co-Investment Agreement and Investor Suitability Questionnaire pursuant to which Mr. Avery made an indirect co-investment of $441,000 in certain of the Units purchased by Golden Harbor (the Unit Interest). The Unit Interest is a contractual economic interest intended to mirror the economic terms, if any, of Golden Harbors investment in the Units. The Unit Interest represents solely an economic right and does not include any right to vote, any right to cause the disposition of the Units or any other rights of control. Mr. Avery is entitled to receive the economic benefit, if any, of the Unit Interest based on his cash investment divided by Golden Harbors total investment in the Units.
On September 7, 2018, Mr. Avery, Golden Harbor, and Aviva Holdings, Ltd. entered into a Co-Investment Agreement and Investor Suitability Questionnaire pursuant to which Mr. Avery made an indirect co-investment of $358,500 in certain of the Inseego Notes purchased by Golden Harbor (the Senior Note Interest). The Senior Note Interest is a contractual economic interest intended to mirror the economic terms, if any, of Golden Harbors investment in the Inseego Notes. The Senior Note Interest represents solely an economic right and does not include any right to vote, any right to cause the disposition of the Inseego Notes or any other rights of control. Mr. Avery is entitled to receive the economic benefit, if any, of the Senior Note Interest based on his cash investment divided by Golden Harbors total investment in the Inseego Notes.
On September 7, 2018, Mr. Avery, RPFG Holdings, Inc. and South Ocean entered into a Co-Investment Agreement and Investor Suitability Questionnaire pursuant to which Mr. Avery made an indirect co-investment of $300,500 in the Term Loan South Ocean (the Term Loan Interest). The Term Loan Interest is a contractual economic interest intended to mirror the economic terms, if any, of South Oceans investment in the Term Loan. The Term Loan Interest represents solely an economic right and does not include any right to vote, any right to cause the disposition of the Term Loan or any other rights of control. Mr. Avery is entitled to receive the economic benefit, if any, of the Term Loan Interest based on his cash investment divided by South Oceans total investment in the Term Loan.
Mr. Avery does not have beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of the co-investment arrangements described above and is therefore not a reporting person hereunder. The foregoing descriptions of the Co-Investment Agreement and Investor Suitability Questionnaires do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, the full text of the Co-Investment Agreement and Investor Suitability Questionnaires, which are filed as Exhibit 7, Exhibit 8 and Exhibit 9, respectively, to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

CO-INVESTMENT AGREEMENT
AND
INVESTOR SUITABILITY QUESTIONNAIRE
1. | Acknowledgments Regarding Terms of Co-Investment |
I understand, agree and acknowledge that: (i) I am being offered the ability to make an indirect co-investment in (A) Golden Harbor Ltd., a Bahamian international business company located at Cay House, EP Taylor Drive N7776, Lyford Cay, New Providence, Bahamas (the Company) in its investment in certain units (Units) consisting of shares of common stock and warrants issued by Inseego Corp., a Delaware corporation, to the Company on or about August 6, 2018 (the Operating Company) and (B) Aviva Holdings Ltd., the parent (the Parent) of the Company, consents to such co-investment; (ii) the interest (the Interest) being offered to me is a contractual economic interest intended to mirror the economic returns, if any, of the Companys direct or indirect investment in the Units; (iii) the Interest represents solely an economic right and does not include any right to vote or other rights of control or information in the Parent, the Company, the Operating Company or any of their respective affiliates and does not include any right to cause the disposition of any assets or to cause the distribution of any funds or proceeds; (iv) the Interest does not represent an equity ownership interest in the Units or the Parent, the Company, the Operating Company or any of their respective affiliates and I will not be a shareholder, partner, member or owner in the Units or the Parent, the Company, the Operating Company or any of their respective affiliates; (v) the Interest may not be transferred, and I have no right to cause the Company to repurchase or acquire the Interest, and consequently, I may be required to bear the financial risk of the investment in the Interest for an indefinite period of time; and (vi) similar co-investment opportunities may be offered to other persons or entities and such other co-investment opportunities may be on different and/or more favorable terms than the terms offered to me.
I hereby agree to co-invest the amount set forth on the signature page hereto (the Investment) with the Company and acquire an Interest representing the economic benefit, if any, of the Interest based on my cash investment divided by the Companys direct or indirect total investment in the Units. I understand, agree and acknowledge that: (i) any and all other funds I co-invest relating to or arising from the Interest, Investment or the Operating Company (A) may be accepted by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion, (B) may result in an adjustment of the economic benefit of the Interest as determined by the Company and (C) shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement without any requirement for the parties to execute an amendment to this Agreement; (ii) the proceeds of the Investment, if any, may be realized only upon the disposition of the Companys direct or indirect investment in the Units and that I will have no ability in any way to request, direct or otherwise cause such a disposition; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to terminate the Investment (at which point I will cease to have any interest, economic or otherwise, in the Parent, the Company, the Operating Company or any of their respective affiliates) upon the termination of my employment with my current employer as of the date of this Agreement in consideration of a payment equal to the then current value of the Investment as determined by the Company; (iii) the value of the Interest is subject to dilution based on future financings, capital raising transactions and similar occurrences; and (iv) the amount payable to me for the Interest upon the disposition of the Companys investment in the Units will be based on the prorated interest in the net proceeds received by the Company in connection with the disposition of the Companys investment in the Units as such amount may be adjusted by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion to account for dilution, expenses borne by the Company and any other factors determined to be appropriate by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion.
2. | Representations and Warranties |
In connection with the Investment, I hereby represent and warrant as follows:
a. I have been advised that the Interest has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or registered or qualified under any state or foreign securities law, on the grounds, among others, that no distribution or public offering of any Interest is to be effected and the Investment will be made in a transaction that does not involve any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act or under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by applicable provisions of state law. I understand that the Company is relying in part on the representations as set forth herein for purposes of claiming such exemptions and that the basis for such exemptions may not be present if, notwithstanding the representations, I intend to acquire the Interest for resale. I have no such intention.
b. I am an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and set forth in Section 4 below.
c. I have adequate means of providing for current needs and possible contingencies, and have no need for liquidity of the Investment.
d. I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that I am capable of evaluating the nature and merits of, and risks attending, the Investment and the Interest, and have, to the extent I believe such discussion necessary, discussed with professional legal, tax, accounting and financial advisers the suitability of the Investment and my investment in the Interest, and have determined that the Investment and my investment in the Interest is consistent with my investment objectives.
- 2 -
e. I have had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from representatives of the Company and its affiliates concerning the terms and conditions of the Interest and the Investment, the Units, the Operating Companys business, the risks associated with this investment, and the financial and other affairs of the Operating Company and the Company to the extent deemed necessary in light of my personal knowledge of such matters. I have been provided with access to any information that I believe is necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment as proposed hereby.
f. I am not making the Investment or otherwise investing in the Interest based upon any representation, oral or written, by any person with respect to the Company, the Units, the Operating Company or any of their affiliates, but rather upon my independent examination and judgment as to the prospects of the Company, the Units and the Operating Company.
g. I am aware that the Investment and the Interest are highly speculative and subject to substantial risks. I am capable of bearing the high degree of economic risk and burdens of this investment, including, but limited to, the possibility of a complete loss of the Investment and the lack of any right to transfer the Interest, which may make the liquidation of this investment impossible for an indefinite period of time.
h. The Interest is being acquired solely for my own account, for investment, and is not being purchased with a view to or for the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof; I have not entered into, and have no plans to enter into, any such contract, undertaking agreement or arrangement; I have not entered into, and have no plans to enter into, any agreement to compel disposition of the Interest; and I will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Interest. I hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company will have no obligation to recognize the ownership, beneficial or otherwise, of the Interest by anyone but me.
i. The Interest and the opportunity to make the Investment were not offered to me by means of any form of general or public solicitations or advertisements, nor am I aware of any offers made to other persons by such means.
j. I am not a minor and am not operating under any legal disability, which could render this Agreement unenforceable or invalid.
k. I understand that no federal or state agency has reviewed or made any finding or determination as to the fairness or merits of the Investment or the Interest, and no such agency has made any recommendation or endorsement whatsoever with respect to such an investment.
l. I understand that the Interest is not transferable.
m. I am aware that the Interest will not be registered under the Securities Act (or applicable state or foreign securities laws) or otherwise, and therefore, could not be resold unless it is registered under the Securities Act (and applicable state and foreign securities laws) or unless an exemption from registration is available; and it may not be possible for me to liquidate the Investment.
n. I believe that, based on my relationship to the Company and its affiliates and business experience as a sophisticated investor, I have been provided with all information or been given access to all information with respect to the Company, the Units and the Operating Company which might affect my decision whether to make the Investment.
- 3 -
o. I acknowledge that any financial projections previously provided to me are based on numerous assumptions and estimates by management as to future events, and that the Company makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or correctness of such projections. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY THAT I SHOULD CONSULT WITH MY LEGAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ADVISER WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTMENT AND THE INTEREST. I also acknowledge that none of the Parent, the Company, their affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, agents or any other person has promised, represented, or guaranteed: (i) the safety of the Investment; (ii) that the Company or Operating Company will be profitable; or (iii) that any particular investment return will be achieved or the profitability of any investment return.
p. I have not distributed any information relating to this investment to any other person other than my professional advisers.
q. The foregoing representations and warranties and all information provided by me to the Company are true and accurate as of the date hereof and shall be true and accurate as of the date of my payment of the amount of the Investment and shall survive thereafter. If in any respect such representations, warranties, and information shall not be true and accurate prior to or as of my payment of the amount of the Investment, I shall give written notice of such fact to the Company, specifying which representations, warranties, and information are not true and accurate and the reasons therefore.
Acceptance by me of the Interest shall constitute a confirmation by me that all agreements and representations made by me in this Agreement shall be true and correct at such time.
3. | Indemnification; Release and Waiver |
I recognize that extension of the opportunity to make the Investment and to invest in the Interest is based upon the above representations and warranties, and I hereby agree to indemnify the Parent, the Company, their affiliates and their respective affiliates, subsidiaries, partners, shareholders, members, beneficial owners, directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, and attorneys with respect to the extension of the opportunity to make the Investment and to invest in the Interest, and to hold each of such persons harmless against all losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees) arising by reason of or in connection with any misrepresentation or any breach of such warranties by me. I acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and the representations and warranties contained herein shall be binding upon my heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
I, on behalf of myself and my heirs, successors, and assigns (collectively, the Releasors), for and in consideration of certain valuable consideration received, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, now and forever hereby release and discharge the Parent, the Company, their affiliates and their respective affiliates, subsidiaries, partners, shareholders, members, beneficial owners, directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, and attorneys, and each of their respective heirs, successors, and assigns (Releasees), from and against any and all contracts, debts, deposits, obligations, liabilities, damages, claims, causes of action, losses, damages, costs, expenses, and attorneys fees, in law or in equity, relating to the Investment, the Interest, the Units, and the Parent and the Company, in each case, which Releasors ever had, now have, or hereafter may have, whether known or unknown, for, on account of, or by any reason of any action, transaction, occurrence, omission, relationship, matter, cause, or thing whatsoever from the beginning of the World to the date of this Release. The Releasors represent and warrant that they have not sold, assigned, transferred, hypothecated, pledged, or encumbered, or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, voluntarily or involuntarily, any claim or cause of action released pursuant to this paragraph.
- 4 -
Additionally, Releasors represent that they do not have any complaint, claim, or action pending against Releasees before any international, federal, state, or local court or agency, or pending before any arbitral panel, alternative dispute resolution body, or non-governmental dispute resolution organization. Releasors further hereby AGREE NOT TO FILE A LAWSUIT or other legal claim or charge to assert any claim that is released or TO BRING ACTION IN ARBITRATION or any other alternative dispute resolution venue for all matters in the general release above or that otherwise is based on facts that occurred prior to, or that exist as of, the time I execute this Agreement against Releasees.

I understand, agree and acknowledge that: (i) any and all other funds I co-invest relating to or arising from the Interest, Investment or the Operating Company (A) may be accepted by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion, (B) may result in an adjustment of the economic benefit of the Interest as determined by the Company and (C) shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement without any requirement for the parties to execute an amendment to this Agreement; (ii) the proceeds of the Investment, if any, may be realized only upon the disposition of the Companys direct or indirect investment in the Notes and that I will have no ability in any way to request, direct or otherwise cause such a disposition; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to terminate the Investment (at which point I will cease to have any interest, economic or otherwise, in the Parent, the Company, the Operating Company or any of their respective affiliates) upon the termination of my employment with my current employer as of the date of this Agreement in consideration of a payment equal to the then current value of the Investment as determined by the Company; (iii) the value of the Interest is subject to dilution based on future financings, capital raising transactions and similar occurrences; and (iv) the amount payable to me for the Interest upon the disposition of the Companys investment in the Notes will be based on the prorated interest in the net proceeds received by the Company in connection with the disposition of the Companys investment in the Notes as such amount may be adjusted by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion to account for dilution, expenses borne by the Company and any other factors determined to be appropriate by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion.
2. | Representations and Warranties |
In connection with the Investment, I hereby represent and warrant as follows:
a. I have been advised that the Interest has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or registered or qualified under any state or foreign securities law, on the grounds, among others, that no distribution or public offering of any Interest is to be effected and the Investment will be made in a transaction that does not involve any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act or under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by applicable provisions of state law. I understand that the Company is relying in part on the representations as set forth herein for purposes of claiming such exemptions and that the basis for such exemptions may not be present if, notwithstanding the representations, I intend to acquire the Interest for resale. I have no such intention.
b. I am an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and set forth in Section 4 below.
c. I have adequate means of providing for current needs and possible contingencies, and have no need for liquidity of the Investment.
d. I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that I am capable of evaluating the nature and merits of, and risks attending, the Investment and the Interest, and have, to the extent I believe such discussion necessary, discussed with professional legal, tax, accounting and financial advisers the suitability of the Investment and my investment in the Interest, and have determined that the Investment and my investment in the Interest is consistent with my investment objectives.
- 2 -
e. I have had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from representatives of the Company and its affiliates concerning the terms and conditions of the Interest and the Investment, the Notes, the Operating Companys business, the risks associated with this investment, and the financial and other affairs of the Operating Company and the Company to the extent deemed necessary in light of my personal knowledge of such matters. I have been provided with access to any information that I believe is necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment as proposed hereby.
f. I am not making the Investment or otherwise investing in the Interest based upon any representation, oral or written, by any person with respect to the Company, the Notes, the Operating Company or any of their affiliates, but rather upon my independent examination and judgment as to the prospects of the Company, the Notes and the Operating Company.
g. I am aware that the Investment and the Interest are highly speculative and subject to substantial risks. I am capable of bearing the high degree of economic risk and burdens of this investment, including, but limited to, the possibility of a complete loss of the Investment and the lack of any right to transfer the Interest, which may make the liquidation of this investment impossible for an indefinite period of time.
h. The Interest is being acquired solely for my own account, for investment, and is not being purchased with a view to or for the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof; I have not entered into, and have no plans to enter into, any such contract, undertaking agreement or arrangement; I have not entered into, and have no plans to enter into, any agreement to compel disposition of the Interest; and I will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Interest. I hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company will have no obligation to recognize the ownership, beneficial or otherwise, of the Interest by anyone but me.
i. The Interest and the opportunity to make the Investment were not offered to me by means of any form of general or public solicitations or advertisements, nor am I aware of any offers made to other persons by such means.
j. I am not a minor and am not operating under any legal disability, which could render this Agreement unenforceable or invalid.
k. I understand that no federal or state agency has reviewed or made any finding or determination as to the fairness or merits of the Investment or the Interest, and no such agency has made any recommendation or endorsement whatsoever with respect to such an investment.
l. I understand that the Interest is not transferable.
m. I am aware that the Interest will not be registered under the Securities Act (or applicable state or foreign securities laws) or otherwise, and therefore, could not be resold unless it is registered under the Securities Act (and applicable state and foreign securities laws) or unless an exemption from registration is available; and it may not be possible for me to liquidate the Investment.
n. I believe that, based on my relationship to the Company and its affiliates and business experience as a sophisticated investor, I have been provided with all information or been given access to all information with respect to the Company, the Notes and the Operating Company which might affect my decision whether to make the Investment.
- 3 -
o. I acknowledge that any financial projections previously provided to me are based on numerous assumptions and estimates by management as to future events, and that the Company makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or correctness of such projections. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY THAT I SHOULD CONSULT WITH MY LEGAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ADVISER WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTMENT AND THE INTEREST.

p. I have not distributed any information relating to this investment to any other person other than my professional advisers.
q. The foregoing representations and warranties and all information provided by me to the Company are true and accurate as of the date hereof and shall be true and accurate as of the date of my payment of the amount of the Investment and shall survive thereafter.
