Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) have been prepared by Inseego Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-K”).
Planned Divestiture of the Telematics Business
On September 16, 2024, the Company and its subsidiary Inseego SA (Pty) Ltd (“Seller”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Light Sabre SPV Limited (which subsequently novated its benefits and obligations under the Purchase Agreement to Ctrack Holdings (the “Purchaser”)), pursuant to which Inseego agreed to sell to the Purchaser the entire issued share capital of the Company’s Inseego International Holdings Limited subsidiary in exchange for approximately $52 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. Upon completion of the sale (the “Completion Date”), the Purchaser will acquire the fleet management and telematics solutions business of Inseego, which has operations in the United Kingdom, the European Union, Australia and New Zealand (the “Telematics Business”).
The Purchase Agreement is subject to closing conditions including, among others more fully described in the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser finalizing financing arrangements to fund the purchase price. Unless fulfilled or otherwise waived by the parties, if any of the closing conditions are not fulfilled by December 31, 2024, the Purchase Agreement shall be terminated and the Sale Transaction shall not be completed.
As a result, within these condensed consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities associated with the Telematics Business disposal group have been classified as held for sale within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and its operations have been classified as discontinued operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
Refer to Note 2 – Discontinued Operations and Held for Sale for additional information regarding the Telematics Business, including the assets and liabilities divested and income from discontinued operations. Unless otherwise noted, disclosures within these remaining Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relate solely to the Company's continuing operations.
Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
In accordance with authoritative guidance for discontinued operations (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20), the Company determined that the Telematics Business met held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria during the third quarter of 2024. Accordingly, the Company classified the results of the Telematics Business as discontinued operations in its condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Additionally, the related assets and liabilities associated with the Telematics Business are classified as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The cash flows related to discontinued operations have not been segregated and are included in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible and right-of-use assets are not recorded while these assets are classified as held for sale. For each period the disposal group remains classified as held for sale, its recoverability is reassessed and any necessary adjustments are made to its carrying value. No impairment upon classification as held for sale was recorded during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2024.
The results of discontinued operations are reported as Income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the current and prior periods commencing in the period in which the

INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
held for sale criteria are met. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax includes direct costs attributable to the discontinued operations and excludes any cost allocations associated with any shared or corporate functions unless otherwise dedicated to the discontinued operations. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax will include any gain or loss recognized upon disposition or from adjustment of the carrying amount to fair value less costs to sell while classified as held for sale. Activity within comprehensive income directly associated with a divested business is not realized as a component of Income from discontinued operations, net of tax until completion of the sale or disposition.
Segment Information
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Estimates are assessed each period and updated to reflect current information. Significant estimates include revenue recognition, warranty provision, capitalized software costs, allowance for credit losses, provision for excess and obsolete inventory, accrued liabilities related to our contract manufacturers, valuation of tangible and intangible long-lived assets, valuation of goodwill, valuation of derivatives, accruals relating to litigation, income taxes and share-based compensation expense.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts recorded in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported operating results.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, and as noted in the Form 10-K, the Company reclassified revenue on its Consolidated Statement of Operations. Historically, the Company classified revenues from products and services into two categories, IoT & Mobile Solutions and Enterprise SaaS Solutions. The Company is now classifying revenues from products and services into the following two categories: Product Revenue, which consists of our Mobile Solutions and Fixed Wireless Access Solutions, and Services and Other. Additionally, during 2023 the Company reclassified all depreciation and amortization expense previously recorded in the operating expense line items of research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations into a separate line labeled Depreciation and amortization. All prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation for these changes.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 24, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to January 24th was automatically converted into one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split affected all common stockholders uniformly and did not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share instead were entitled to receive cash in lieu of such fractional share.
The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the common stock or the authorized number of shares of common stock. All outstanding convertible notes entitling their holders to purchase or obtain or convert into shares of our common stock were adjusted, as required by the terms of these securities.
All common share and per-share amounts in this Form 10-Q have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.
Liquidity
During 2024, the Company 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 Convertible Notes”), as follows:
(1) Convertible Debt Repurchases and Exchanges Completed prior to September 30, 2024 (the “Completed Repurchases and Exchanges”):
10
INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(a) the Company repurchased, for cash, all of the $45.9 million in principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes held by certain entities managed by Highbridge Capital Management, LLC (such entities, “Highbridge”), the second largest note holder as of the date of such purchase, at a discount of 30 % to face value, plus accrued interest;
(b) the Company repurchased, for cash, $3.0 million of principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes from a separate single holder at discount of 45 % to face value, plus accrued interest;
(c) the Company repurchased from a holder approximately $4.7 million of principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for approximately 0.3 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 0.2 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, plus accrued interest. See Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) for further details regarding these warrants;
(d) the Company repurchased from two related holders approximately $1.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for approximately 0.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 0.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock. See Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) for further details regarding these warrants;
(2) Short-Term Loan Agreement: to finance a portion of the Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company agreed to a $19.5 million loan (“Short-Term Loan”) 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”). The Short-Term Loan was originally scheduled to mature on September 30, 2024 but maturity has subsequently been extended to November 30, 2024. Borrowings under the Short-Term Loan bear interest at 12.0 % per annum. Upon any repayment or prepayment of the amounts borrowed under the Short-Term Loan (including at maturity), the Company will be required to pay an exit fee equal to 4.0 % of the aggregate principal amount prepaid or repaid. See Note 5 – Debt below for further details regarding the Short-Term Loan; and
(3) Convertible Debt Repurchases and Exchanges Completed Subsequent to September 30, 2024 (the “Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges”): On November 6, 2024 the Company completed the previously-announced privately-negotiated exchanges of $91.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes held by certain holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes pursuant to binding term sheets that were previously entered into with such holders, including the binding term sheets entered into on June 28, 2024 with North Sound Partners and Golden Harbor Ltd. In connection with the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company issued to these noteholders in concurrent private placement transactions an aggregate of (i) approximately 2.4 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) approximately $40.9 million in principal amount of new senior secured notes due in 2029 (the “New Senior Secured Notes”), and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 2.1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock. See Note 12 – Subsequent Events below for further details regarding the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, including information about the warrants and New Senior Secured Notes issued in relation to these transactions.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents totaling $12.0 million. During the three-months ended September 30, 2024, the Company voluntarily prepaid $13.5 million of the outstanding principal balance under the Short-Term Loan Agreement, so that on September 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance under the Short-Term Loan was $6.0 million.
The 2025 Convertible Notes had a principal balance of $106.8 million as of September 30, 2024 and mature on May 1, 2025. Taking into account the Completed Repurchases and Exchanges and the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company has subsequently repurchased and/or exchanged approximately $146.9 million, or 90.8 %, of the face value of the 2025 Convertible Notes that was outstanding as of December 31, 2023.
The Company generated positive cash flow from operations both for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In April 2024, the Company received a $15.0 million upfront payment from a customer in connection with a two-year service contract. Based on the factors above, and to reduce financing costs, the Company voluntarily paid-off and terminated its Credit Facility (as defined below) effective April 18, 2024. These factors have had a positive impact on our liquidity.
While the Company’s liquidity and financial results have had several positive developments recently, as noted above, the Company has a history of operating and net losses and overall usage of cash from operating and investing activities. The Company’s ability to maintain profitable operations and continue to generate positive cash flows is dependent upon achieving a level and mix of revenues adequate to support its evolving cost structure. In order to effect the restructuring or refinancing of the Company’s obligations, or if events or circumstances occur such that the Company does not meet its operating plan as
11

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
expected, or if the Company becomes obligated to pay unforeseen expenditures, the Company may be required to raise capital, reduce planned research and development activities, incur additional restructuring charges or reduce other operating expenses and capital expenditures, which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.
During the previous two quarters, the Company had disclosed that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the issuance dates of the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for those quarters, primarily as a result of the outstanding balance and due date of the 2025 Convertible Notes. In performing this assessment for the current quarter, taking into account the Company’s liquidity position as a whole, including the repurchases and exchanges of 2025 Convertible Notes noted above, the liquidity anticipated to be provided from the sale of the Telematics Business, and cash inflows expected to be provided by its continuing operations, the Company has concluded that there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of issuance of these financial statements.

Note 2. Discontinued Operations and Held for Sale
As noted in Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies, on September 16, 2024, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement to sell its Telematics Business. As a result, within these condensed consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities associated with the Telematics Business disposal group have been classified as held for sale within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and its operations have been classified as discontinued operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s only financial instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its interest make-whole payment derivative liability on its 2025 Convertible Notes (see Note 5 – Debt). The fair value of that liability was zero as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The fair value of the interest make-whole payment derivative liability was determined using a Monte Carlo model using the following key assumptions:
September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | ||||||||||
Volatility | % | % | |||||||||
Stock price | $ | $ | |||||||||
Credit spread | % | % | |||||||||
Term | |||||||||||
Dividend yield | % | % | |||||||||
Risk-free rate | % | % |
There was no change in the fair value of the interest make-whole liability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023.
Other Financial Instruments
The carrying values of the Company’s other financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature, with the exception of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The 2025 Convertible Notes are carried at amortized cost, adjusted for changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative.
Note 5. Debt
Short-Term Loan
On June 28, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Short-Term Loan Agreement”), among South Ocean, as lender (“Lender”), the Participating Lenders, the Company, as borrower, and two of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inseego Wireless, Inc. and Inseego North America LLC as guarantors (collectively, the “Guarantors,” and together with the Company, the “Loan Parties”). The Loan Agreement establishes the Short-Term Loan.
The Company’s obligations under the Short-Term Loan Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors. Subject to the requirements of the Short-Term Loan Agreement, certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries may become guarantors and Loan Parties of the Loan Agreement after closing. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by a continuing security interest in substantially all property of each Loan Party, subject to certain excluded collateral, as defined in the Short-Term Loan Agreement.
The Short-Term Loan was originally scheduled to mature on September 30, 2024 but maturity has subsequently been extended to November 30, 2024. Borrowings under the Short-Term Loan bear interest at 12.0 % per annum. Upon any repayment or prepayment of the amounts borrowed under the Short-Term Loan (including at maturity), the Company is required to pay an exit fee equal to 4.0 % of the aggregate principal amount prepaid or repaid.
The Short-Term Loan Agreement contains certain customary covenants, which include, but are not limited to, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, restricted payments, asset sales, and investments, and places limits on various other payments. The Short-Term Loan Agreement contains certain customary provisions with respect to the definition of, and remedies with respect to, events of default.
Also on June 28, 2024, as part of the Short-Term Loan Agreement, the Participating Lenders contributed an aggregate of $3.0 million of participation interests in the Short-Term Loan Agreement (the “Participation Interests”). The Participating Lenders consist of Philip Brace, the Company’s Executive Chairman, who acquired a $1.0 million Participation Interest, and North Sound Ventures, LP, which acquired a $2.0 million Participation Interest in the $19.5 million Loan. As of the date hereof, affiliates of each of the Lender and North Sound Ventures, LP may be deemed to beneficially own more than 5 % of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. James B. Avery, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, currently serves as

Senior Managing Director of Tavistock Group, an affiliate of the Lender. Accordingly, the Lender and the Participating Lenders are considered related parties of the Company.
In connection with entering into the Short-Term Loan Agreement, the Company paid an arrangement and administration fee of $0.2 million to the Lender (the “Loan Costs”). Additionally in connection with the Short-Term Loan Agreement, the Company issued to the Lender and the Participating Lenders warrants (the “Loan Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 550,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). See Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) for further details regarding the Loan Warrants.
The gross proceeds received under the Short-Term Loan Agreement, along with the Loan Costs, were allocated between the Short-Term Loan and the Loan Warrants based on their relative fair values at issuance.
During the three-months ended September 30, 2024, the Company voluntarily prepaid $13.5 million of the outstanding principal balance under the Short-Term Loan Agreement, so that as of September 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance under the Short-Term Loan Agreement was $6.0 million. The debt discount originally recorded as a result of the allocation of the net proceeds between the Short-Term Loan and the Loan Warrants of $3.3 million was fully amortized to interest expense during the months ended September 30, 2024. As a result, the amount recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2024 is solely comprised of the principal balance outstanding.
2025 Convertible Notes
In 2020, the Company completed both a registered public offering and a privately negotiated exchange agreement that resulted in the issuance of the 2025 Convertible Notes. After taking into account exchanges and redemptions occurring in prior periods, the outstanding principal balance of the 2025 Convertible Notes was $106.8 million and $161.9 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued under an indenture, dated May 12, 2020 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated May 12, 2020 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.
The 2025 Convertible Notes will mature on May 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The 2025 Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at an annual rate of 3.25 %, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year.
Holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes may convert the 2025 Convertible Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share), at their option, at any time until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Upon conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company will deliver for each $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes converted a number of shares of the Company’s common stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share), equal to the conversion rate.
As of September 30, 2024, the conversion rate for the 2025 Convertible Notes is 7.92896 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $126.12 per share, and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, certain stock dividends, splits and combinations, the issuance of certain rights, options or warrants to holders of the common stock, certain distributions of assets, debt securities, capital stock or other property to holders of the common stock, cash dividends on the common stock and certain Company tender or exchange offers.
If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs at any time prior to the maturity date, then the noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their 2025 Convertible Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. If a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs, then the Company will in certain circumstances increase the conversion rate for a specified period of time.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after May 6, 2023 through the last scheduled trading day before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, as long as the last reported sale price per share of the common stock exceeds 130 % of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice.

The Indenture contains customary events of default. If an event of default (other than certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes representing at least 25 % in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare 100 % of the principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the then outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Company, 100 % of the principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the then outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes will automatically become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture provides that, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an event of default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture will, for the first 360 days after such event of default, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the 2025 Convertible Notes.
Interest make-whole payment
The 2025 Convertible Notes also include an interest make-whole payment feature whereby if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for each of the 105.10 , the Company will, in addition to the other consideration payable or deliverable in connection with such conversion, make an interest make-whole payment to the converting holder equal to the sum of the present values of the scheduled payments of interest that would have been made on the 2025 Convertible Notes to be converted had such notes remained outstanding from the conversion date through the earlier of (i) the date that is three years after the conversion date and (ii) the maturity date. The present values will be computed using a discount rate equal to 1 %. The Company will satisfy its obligation to pay the interest make-whole payment, at its election, in cash or shares of common stock (together with cash in lieu of fractional shares). trading days immediately preceding a conversion date is greater than or equal to $ The Company has determined that this feature is an embedded derivative and has recognized the fair value of this derivative as a liability in the consolidated balance sheets, with subsequent changes to fair value to be recorded at each reporting period on the consolidated statement of operations in other income, net. See Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements, for more information on this derivative liability.
2025 Convertible Note Repurchases and Exchanges
On May 24, 2024, the Company entered into a repurchase agreement with a single holder of the 2025 Convertible Notes, resulting in the settlement of $3.0 million of outstanding principal at a purchase price of 55 % of par. The repurchase price was equal to the aggregate principal amount at 55 % of par, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the repurchase date. The total repurchase payment was $1.7 million.

Stock Options
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determines eligibility, vesting schedules and exercise prices for stock options granted. The Company generally uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of its stock options. For performance stock awards subject to market-based vesting conditions, fair values are determined using the Monte-Carlo simulation model. Stock options generally have a term of ten years and vest over a to four-year period.
The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:
Outstanding — December 31, 2023 | |||||
Granted | |||||
Exercised | ( | ||||
Canceled | ( | ||||
Outstanding — September 30, 2024 | |||||
Exercisable — September 30, 2024 |
At September 30, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options was $0.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.16 years.
Restricted Stock Units
Pursuant to the 2018 Plan and the 2015 Plan, the Company may issue RSUs that, upon satisfaction of vesting conditions, allow recipients to receive common stock. Issuances of such awards reduce common stock available under the 2018 Plan and 2015 Plan for stock incentive awards. The Company measures compensation cost associated with grants of RSUs at fair value, which is generally the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. RSUs generally vest over a four-year period. - to

Note 7. Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities (consisting primarily of the 2025 Convertible Notes calculated using the if-converted method and warrants, stock options and RSUs calculated using the treasury stock method) are excluded from the diluted EPS computation in loss periods and when their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Note 8. Stockholders' Equity (Deficit)
Loan Warrants
As noted in Note 5 – Debt, on June 28, 2024 in connection with the Short-Term Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the Lender and the Participating Lenders Loan Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 550,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Loan Warrants have an exercise price of $12.12 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions. The Loan Warrants will expire on June 28, 2028, are exercisable on a cash basis, and contain customary registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Loan Warrants. As of September 30, 2024, none of the Loan Warrants have been exercised.
The proceeds from the Short-Term Loan Agreement, along with the related Loan Costs incurred, were allocated to the Loan Warrants and Short-Term Loan based on their relative fair values. This allocation resulted in the Warrants having a net value of $3.2 million that the Company recorded within Additional Paid-In Capital within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Deficit.
2025 Convertible Note Repurchases
As discussed in Note 5 – Debt, on July 18, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a holder of approximately $4.7 million in principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company repurchased the holder’s 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for approximately 0.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 0.2 million shares of the Company’s common stock, plus accrued interest. The warrants have an exercise price of $13.37 , subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions.
As discussed in Note 5 – Debt, on August 2, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with two related holders of approximately $1.5 million in principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company repurchased the holders’ 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for approximately 0.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 0.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock, plus accrued interest. The warrants have an exercise price of $11.03 , subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions.
These warrants expire four years from their dates of issuance, are exercisable on a cash basis and are otherwise in substantially the same form as the Loan Warrants. The Company granted the holder customary registration rights with respect to the common shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. As of September 30, 2024, none of these warrants have been exercised.
Public Equity Offering
In January 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Canaccord Genuity LLC (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell, from time to time, through or to the Agent, up to $40.0 million of shares of its common stock (the “ATM Offering”). The Company did not sell any shares under the ATM Offering during the three months ended September 30, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company sold 803,596 shares of common stock, at an average price of $7.54 per share, for net proceeds of $6.1 million, after deducting underwriter fees and discounts. Effective as of November 2, 2023, the Equity Distribution Agreement was terminated by the Company, and there will be no further sales under the ATM Offering.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, two customers accounted for 38.6 % and 36.7 % of revenues, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, two customers accounted for 41.3 % and 34.8 % of revenues, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, two customers accounted for 43.3 % and 31.9 % of revenues, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, two customers accounted for 36.8 % and 33.5 %, respectively, of revenues.
Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
Noncancellable Purchase Obligations
The Company typically enters into commitments with its contract manufacturers that require future purchases of goods or services in the three to four quarters following the balance sheet date. Such commitments are noncancellable (“noncancellable purchase obligations”). As of September 30, 2024, future payments under these noncancellable purchase obligations were approximately $64.3 million.
Legal
The Company is, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is regularly required to directly or indirectly participate in other U.S. patent infringement actions pursuant to its contractual indemnification obligations to certain customers. Based on an evaluation of these matters the Company currently believes that liabilities arising from, or sums paid in settlement of these existing matters, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, the Company periodically enters into agreements that require the Company to indemnify and defend its customers for, among other things, claims alleging that the Company’s products infringe upon third-party patents or other intellectual property rights. The Company’s maximum exposure under these indemnification provisions cannot be estimated but the Company does not believe that there are any matters individually or collectively that would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
Note 11. Income Taxes
Income taxes for both periods consisted primarily of foreign income taxes at certain of the Company’s international entities and state taxes for its U.S.-based entities. The Company’s income tax expense differs from the expected expense based
24
INSEEGO CORP.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
on statutory rates primarily due to full valuation allowances at all of its U.S.-based entities. The increase in the Company’s income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, was driven primarily by U.S. state taxes in states which have either chosen to temporarily suspend the use of net operating losses or have franchise taxes calculated on modified gross profit.
Note 12. Subsequent Events
Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges
As discussed in Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies above, on November 6, 2024 the Company completed the previously-announced private exchanges of $91.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes held by certain holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes pursuant to binding term sheets that were previously entered into with such holders, including the binding term sheets entered into on June 28, 2024 with North Sound Partners and Golden Harbor Ltd. In connection with the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company issued to these noteholders in concurrent private placement transactions an aggregate of (i) approximately 2.4 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) approximately $40.9 million in principal amount of New Senior Secured Notes, and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 2.1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
The New Senior Secured Notes bear interest at 9.0 % per annum, to be paid in cash, in arrears, and on a semi-annual basis, and will have a maturity date of May 1, 2029. The New Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of Company’s assets.
The warrants have exercise prices ranging from $11.27 to $15.77 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions. The warrants expire four years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cash basis.
Affiliates of two of the noteholders involved in the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges - Golden Harbor Ltd. and North Sound Partners - may be deemed to beneficially own more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. James B. Avery, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, currently serves as Senior Managing Director of Tavistock Group, an affiliate of Golden Harbor Ltd.

Business Overview
Inseego Corp. is a leader in the design and development of cloud-managed wireless broadband and intelligent edge solutions. Our 4G and 5G wireless broadband portfolio is comprised of secure and high-performance mobile broadband and fixed wireless access (“FWA”) solutions with associated cloud solutions for real time WAN visibility, monitoring, automation and control with centralized orchestration of network functions. These solutions are specifically built for the enterprise and small and medium business (“SMB”) market segments with a focus on performance, scalability, quality and enterprise grade security. Our telematics solutions are designed to improve business outcomes for enterprise and SMB market segments (see “Recent Developments” below). We also provide a wireless subscriber management SaaS solution for carriers to manage their government and complex enterprise customer subscriptions.
Our 5G products and associated cloud solutions are designed and developed in the U.S. and are used in mission-critical applications requiring the highest levels of security and zero unscheduled downtime. These solutions support applications such as business broadband for both mobile and fixed use cases, enterprise networking and software-defined wide area network (“SD-WAN”) failover management.
Inseego is at the forefront of providing high speed broadband through state-of-the-art 4G and 5G solutions to keep enterprise and SMB customers seamlessly connected. With multiple first-to-market innovations through several generations of 4G and 5G technologies, Inseego has been advancing wireless WAN technology and driving industry transformations for over 30 years. Our products currently operate on all major cellular networks in the US. Our mobile hotspots, sold under the MiFi ™ brand, have been sold to millions of end users and provide secure and convenient high-speed broadband access to the Internet on the go.
Recent Developments
On September 16, 2024, the Company and its subsidiary Inseego SA (Pty) Ltd (“Seller”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Light Sabre SPV Limited (which subsequently novated its benefits and obligations under the Purchase Agreement to Ctrack Holdings (the “Purchaser”)), pursuant to which Inseego agreed to sell to the Purchaser the entire issued share capital of the Company’s Inseego International Holdings Limited subsidiary in exchange for approximately $52 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. Upon completion of the sale (the “Completion Date”), the Purchaser will acquire the Telematics Business, which has operations in the United Kingdom, the European Union, Australia and New Zealand.
The Purchase Agreement is subject to closing conditions including, among others more fully described in the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser finalizing financing arrangements to fund the purchase price. Unless fulfilled or otherwise waived by the parties, if any of the closing conditions are not fulfilled by December 31, 2024, the Purchase Agreement shall be terminated and the Sale Transaction shall not be completed.
The Company’s decision to divest its Telematics Business was based on a review of the strategic fit of the business with the Company’s North American-centric 5G wireless solutions business and the Company’s previously stated goal to continue to significantly de-leverage its capital structure. The sale of the telematics operations further supports the Company’s streamlining of its focus and resources on the strongest growth opportunities around its core product offerings.
The assets and liabilities of the Telematics Business have been classified as held for sale within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and its operations have been classified as discontinued operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for all periods presented herein. Refer to Note 2 – Discontinued Operations and Held for Sale included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion regarding the planned divestiture.
Our Sources of Revenue
We classify our revenues from the sale of our products and services into two categories: Product Revenue, which consists of our Mobile Solutions and Fixed Wireless Access Solutions, and Services and Other. A description of each of the revenue classifications is as follows:
Mobile solutions: Our mobile broadband solutions, sold under the MiFi brand, are actively used by millions of end users to provide secure and convenient high-speed access to corporate, public and personal information through the Internet and enterprise networks. Our Mobile Solutions portfolio also includes 4G VoLTE products and 4G USB modems. Our mobile portfolio is supported by our cloud offerings - Inseego Connect for device management, and 5G
28
SD EDGE for secure networking enabling corporate managed mobile remote workforce, whose revenues are included in Services and other below. Our Mobile Solutions customer base is primarily comprised of mobile operators. These mobile operators include Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile and U.S. Cellular in the United States, Rogers and Telus in Canada, Telstra in Australia, as well as other international wireless operators, distributors and various companies in other vertical markets and geographies.
Fixed wireless access solutions: Our fixed wireless access solutions are deployed by enterprise and SMB customers for their distributed sites and employees as a fully secure and corporate managed wireless WWAN solution. The portfolio consists of indoor, outdoor and industrial routers and gateways supported by our cloud offerings – Inseego Connect for device management and 5G SD Edge for secure cloud networking. Revenues related to our cloud offerings of Inseego Connect and SD Edge are included within Services and other below. These solutions, sold under the Wavemaker and Skyus brands, are sold by mobile operators such as T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Verizon Wireless along with distribution and channel partners.
Services and other: We sell certain other types of SaaS solutions. We provide a SaaS wireless subscriber management solution (Inseego Subscribe) for carrier’s management of their government and complex enterprise customer subscriptions. We also categorize non-recurring engineering services we provide to our customers as Service and other revenue.
Business Segment Reporting
We operate as one business segment. Our principal executive officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker, evaluates the business as a single entity and reviews financial information and makes business decisions based on the overall results of the business. As such, our operations constitute a single operating segment and one reportable segment.
Financial Statement Presentation
During the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company reclassified revenues in order to align with how management reviews revenue results. Historically, the Company classified revenues from products and services into two categories, IoT & Mobile Solutions and Enterprise SaaS Solutions. The Company is now classifying revenues into the following two categories: Product Revenue, which consists of our Mobile Solutions and Fixed Wireless Access Solutions, and Services and Other.
Additionally, during 2023 the Company reclassified all depreciation and amortization expense previously recorded in the operating expense line items of research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses into a separate line labeled Depreciation and amortization. All prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation for these changes.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to the critical accounting estimates discussed in the Form 10-K.

Total revenues | $ | 54,032 | $ | 41,357 | $ | 12,675 | 30.6 |
Mobile solutions. The $9.7 million increase in mobile solutions revenues is primarily due to increased sales of our higher margin premium 5G MiFi at multiple carriers, including a promotional offer at one of our carrier partners.
Fixed wireless access solutions. The $1.4 million decrease in fixed wireless access solutions revenues is primarily due to decreased sales with one of our carrier partners, partially offset by sales from our channel program, that began in 2024, as initiatives in that space are beginning to drive revenue.
Services and other The $4.3 million increase in services and other revenues is primarily due to increased Inseego Subscribe revenues related to the terms of a two-year service contract renewal with a major customer that was executed in April 2024.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $35.2 million, or 65.2% of revenues, compared to $43.5 million, or 105.2% of revenues, for the same period in 2023.

Total cost of revenues | $ | 35,232 | $ | 43,522 | $ | (8,290) | (19.0) |
Product. The $9.2 million decrease in product cost of revenues is primarily due to significant inventory reserves and related charges of $14.4 million recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2023, partially offset by the impact of increased product revenues.
Services and other. The $0.9 million increase in services and other cost of revenues is primarily due to increased Inseego Subscribe revenues and the related increase in costs incurred to provide these services.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $18.8 million, or a gross margin of 34.8%, compared to a loss of $2.2 million, or a gross margin of (5.2)%, for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to significant inventory reserves recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and higher revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily due to the inventory reserves recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and a larger proportion of higher margin service revenues as a percentage of total revenues and increased margins on the Company’s premium 5G MiFi offerings in the current year in comparison to the lower margin products offered in the prior year.
Operating costs and expenses. The following table summarizes operating costs and expenses (in thousands):

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $5.2 million, or 9.6% of revenues, compared to $5.2 million, or 12.6% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to lower research and development personnel-related costs as a result of a decrease in overall research and development headcount, partially offset by increased annual incentive bonus accruals for current year performance.
Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $4.1 million, or 7.6% of revenues, compared to $3.9 million, or 9.4% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to increased sales commissions and higher advertising and marketing costs, partially offset by lower sales personnel-related costs as a result of a decrease in overall sales headcount and a decrease in consulting and outside services in relation to cost reduction efforts.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $4.8 million, or 8.9% of revenues, compared to $3.4 million, or 8.3% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to an increase in legal and consulting expenses related to our capital structure management efforts and planned divestiture of our Telematics Business, as well as increased annual incentive bonus accruals for current year performance, partially offset by a decreased share-based compensation.
Depreciation and amortization expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $3.2 million, or 5.8% of revenues, compared to $3.8 million, or 9.3% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses was primarily due to lower balances of capitalized software projects and property, plant and equipment during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.
Impairment of capitalized software. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded impairments of $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Interest expense, net. The $2.8 million increase in interest expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 over the same period in 2023 was primarily a result of amortization of the debt discount and coupon interest on the Short-Term Loan (as defined below) received in June 2024, partially offset by reductions in the principal balance of the 2025 Convertible Notes (as defined below) and termination of the Company’s Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 – Debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) in April 2024.
Gain on debt restructurings, net The $12.4 million net gain on debt restructurings for the three months ended September 30, 2024 is a result of the Company’s various 2025 Convertible Notes restructurings entered into during 2024 as part of our overall capital structure management efforts, as described below.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $0.1 million and $0.0 million, respectively.
31
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $1.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The increase was primarily due to increased sales of telematics services.
Preferred stock dividends. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded dividends of $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, on our Preferred Stock.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Total revenues | $ | 143,157 | $ | 131,367 | $ | 11,790 | 9.0 |
Mobile solutions. The $9.0 million increase in mobile solutions revenues is primarily due to increased sales of our premium 5G MiFis with one of our carrier partners.
Fixed wireless access solutions. The $5.3 million decrease in fixed wireless access solutions revenues is primarily due to higher sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 relating to pre-launch sales of our indoor FWA solution in preparation for the release that occurred in the third quarter of 2023 and reduced sales of our indoor router category during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Services and other The $8.1 million increase in services and other revenues is primarily due to increased Inseego Subscribe revenues related to the terms of a two-year service contract renewal with a major customer that was executed in April 2024.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $92.3 million, or 64.5% of revenues, compared to $104.9 million, or 79.9% of revenues, for the same period in 2023.

Total cost of revenues | $ | 92,304 | $ | 104,934 | $ | (12,630) | (12.0) |
Product. The $14.6 million decrease in Product cost of revenues is primarily due to significant inventory reserves recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, partially offset partially offset by the impact of increased product revenues.
Services and other. The $1.9 million increase in Services and other cost of revenues is primarily due to increased Inseego Subscribe revenues and the related increase in costs incurred to provide said services.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $50.9 million, or a gross margin of 35.5%, compared to $26.4 million, or a gross margin of 20.1%, for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the inventory reserves recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and higher revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily due to the inventory reserves recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and a larger proportion of higher margin service revenues as a percentage of total revenues

and increased margins on the Company’s premium 5G MiFi offerings in the current year in comparison to the lower margin products offered in the prior year.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $15.0 million, or 10.5% of revenues, compared to $14.4 million, or 10.9% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to fewer research and development projects that were capitalizable during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which resulted in a higher percentage of research and development costs being recorded as operating expenses, and increased annual incentive bonus accruals for current year performance, partially offset by lower personnel-related costs as a result of a decrease in overall sales headcount and a decrease in consulting and outside services in relation to cost reduction efforts.
Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $12.2 million, or 8.5% of revenues, compared to $13.7 million, or 10.4% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to lower sales personnel-related costs as a result of a decrease in overall sales headcount and a decrease in consulting and outside services in relation to cost reduction efforts.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $12.7 million, or 8.9% of revenues, compared to $12.3 million, or 9.4% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to an increase in legal and consulting expenses related to our capital structure management efforts and planned divestiture of our Telematics Business, as well as increased annual incentive bonus accruals for current year performance, partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense and temporary employment costs as part of cost reduction efforts.
Depreciation and amortization expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $10.1 million, or 7.1% of revenues, compared to $13.1 million, or 10.0% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses was primarily due to lower balances of capitalized software projects and property, plant and equipment during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.
Impairment of capitalized software. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded impairments of $0.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Interest expense, net. The $2.8 million decrease in interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 over the same period in 2023 was primarily a result of amortization of the debt discount and coupon interest on the Short-Term Loan (as defined below) received in June 2024, partially offset by reductions in the principal balance of the 2025 Convertible
33
Notes (as defined below) and termination of the Company’s Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 – Debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) in April 2024.
Loss on extinguishment of revolving credit facility The $0.8 million loss on extinguishment of revolving credit facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relates to the terminations of the Company’s Credit Facility in April 2024.
Gain on debt restructurings, net The $13.7 million net gain on troubled debt restructurings for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is a result of the Company’s various 2025 Convertible Notes restructurings entered into during 2024 as part of our overall capital structure management efforts.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $(0.9) million and $0.1 million, respectively.
Income tax provision. Income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was a provision of $0.2 million and $0.0 million, respectively.
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $3.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to increased sales of telematics services.
Preferred stock dividends. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded dividends of $2.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively, on our Preferred Stock.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 24, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to January 24, 2024 were automatically converted into one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the common stock or the authorized number of shares of common stock. All outstanding convertible notes, stock options and RSUs entitling their holders to purchase or obtain or convert into shares of our common stock were adjusted, as required by the terms of these securities. All applicable common share and per share amounts have been retrospectively restated to show the effect of the reverse split.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During 2024, the Company 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 Convertible Notes”), some of which are summarized in Note 5 – Debt in the accompanying unaudited financial statements, as follows:
(1) Convertible Debt Repurchases and Exchanges Completed prior to September 30, 2024 (the “Completed Repurchases and Exchanges”):
(a) the Company repurchased, for cash, all of the $45.9 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes held by certain entities managed by Highbridge Capital Management, LLC (such entities, “Highbridge”), the second largest note holder as of the date of such purchase, at a discount of 30% to face value, plus accrued interest;
(b) the Company repurchased, for cash, $3.0 million in principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes from a separate single holder at discount of 45% to face value, plus accrued interest;
(c) the Company repurchased from a holder approximately $4.7 million in principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for 349,740 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 236,074 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, plus accrued interest. See Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) in the accompanying unaudited financial statements for further details regarding these warrants;
(d) the Company repurchased from two related holders approximately $1.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for 137,533 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 88,534 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus accrued interest. See Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) in the accompanying unaudited financial statements for further details regarding these warrants;
34
(2) Short-Term Loan Agreement: to finance a portion of the Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company agreed to a $19.5 million loan (“Short-Term Loan”) 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”). The Short-Term Loan was originally scheduled to mature on September 30, 2024 but maturity has subsequently been extended to November 30, 2024. Borrowings under the Short-Term Loan bear interest at 12.0% per annum. Upon any repayment or prepayment of the amounts borrowed under the Short-Term Loan (including at maturity), the Company will be required to pay an exit fee equal to 4.0% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid or repaid. See Note 5 – Debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further details regarding the Short-Term Loan; and
(3) Convertible Debt Repurchases and Exchanges Completed Subsequent to September 30, 2024 (the “Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges”): On November 6, 2024 the Company completed the previously-announced privately-negotiated exchanges of $91.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes held by certain holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes pursuant to binding term sheets that were previously entered into with such holders, including the binding term sheets entered into on June 28, 2024 with North Sound Partners and Golden Harbor Ltd.. In connection with the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company issued to these noteholders in concurrent private placement transactions an aggregate of (i) approximately 2.4 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) approximately $40.9 million in principal amount of new senior secured notes due in 2029 (the “New Senior Secured Notes”), and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 2.1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock. See Part 1 Item 1 Note 12 – Subsequent Events in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details regarding the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, including information about the warrants and New Senior Secured Notes issued in relation to these transactions.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents totaling $12.0 million. During the three-months ended September 30, 2024, the Company voluntarily prepaid $13.5 million of the outstanding principal under the Short-Term Loan Agreement, so that on September 30, 2024, the outstanding principal under the Short-Term Loan was $6.0 million.
The 2025 Convertible Notes had a principal balance of $106.8 million as of September 30, 2024 and mature on May 1, 2025. Taking into account the Completed Repurchases and Exchanges and the Subsequently Completed Repurchases and Exchanges, the Company has subsequently repurchased and/or exchanged approximately $146.9 million, or 90.8%, of the face value of the 2025 Convertible Notes that was outstanding as of December 31, 2023.
The Company generated positive cash flow from operations both for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In April 2024, the Company received a $15.0 million upfront payment from a customer in connection with a two-year service contract. Based on the factors above, and to reduce financing costs, the Company voluntarily paid-off and terminated its Credit Facility effective April 18, 2024. These factors have had a positive impact on our liquidity.
While the Company’s liquidity and financial results have had several positive developments recently, as noted above, the Company has a history of operating and net losses and overall usage of cash from operating and investing activities. The Company’s ability to maintain profitable operations and continue to generate positive cash flows is dependent upon achieving a level and mix of revenues adequate to support its evolving cost structure. In order to effect the restructuring or refinancing of the Company’s obligations, or if events or circumstances occur such that the Company does not meet its operating plan as expected, or if the Company becomes obligated to pay unforeseen expenditures, the Company may be required to raise capital, reduce planned research and development activities, incur additional restructuring charges or reduce other operating expenses and capital expenditures, which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.
Our liquidity could be compromised if there is any interruption in our business operations, a material failure to satisfy our contractual commitments or a failure to generate revenue from new or existing products. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of equity securities, or in connection with any restructuring or refinancing of the 2025 Convertible Notes, Company stockholders could experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and securities issued may have rights senior to those of the holders of the Company’s common stock.
During the previous two quarters, the Company had disclosed that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the issuance dates of the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for those quarters, primarily as a result of the outstanding balance and due date of the 2025 Convertible Notes. In performing this assessment for the current quarter, taking into account the Company’s liquidity position as a whole, including the repurchases and exchanges of 2025 Convertible Notes noted above, the liquidity anticipated to be provided from the sale of the Telematics Business, and cash
35
inflows expected to be provided by its continuing operations, the Company has concluded that there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of issuance of these financial statements.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
As of September 30, 2024, our material contractual obligations consisted of the following:
•To mitigate the risk of material shortages and price increases, we enter into non-cancellable purchase obligations with certain key contract manufacturers for the purchase of goods and services in the three to four quarters following the balance sheet date. Our purchase obligations consist of agreements to purchase goods and services entered into in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2024, our future payments under these noncancellable purchase obligations were approximately $64.3 million.
•$106.8 million and $6.0 million in outstanding principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes and Short-Term Loan, respectively, with required interest payments; see Note 5 – Debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements; and
•Operating lease liabilities that are included on our consolidated balance sheet.
There were no material changes in our other contractual obligations during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is primarily comprised of $7.9 million of cash outflow related to net repayments of the Credit Facility, partially offset by $6.1 million in proceeds from the ATM offering (as defined in Note 8 – Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Our revenue, earnings, cash flows, receivables, and payables are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
2025 Convertible Notes and Embedded Derivative
Our total fixed-rate borrowings under the 2025 Convertible Notes as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $106.8 million and $161.9 million, respectively. We record all of our fixed-rate borrowings at amortized cost and therefore, any changes in interest rates do not impact the values that we report for these senior notes on our consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had no variable-rate borrowings related to the 2025 Convertible Notes.
The 2025 Convertible Notes include an embedded derivative which was marked to a fair value of zero at both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value inputs to the derivative valuation include dividend yield, term, volatility, stock price, and risk-free rate. Consequently we may incur gains and losses on the derivative as changes occur in the stock price, volatility, and risk-free rate at each reporting period. Additional details regarding our 2025 Convertible Notes and the embedded derivative are included in Part 1 Item 1 Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements and Note 5 – Debt in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Inflation Risk
Inflation has increased during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and is expected to continue to increase for the near future. Inflationary factors, such as increases in the cost of our materials, supplies, and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, we may experience an effect if inflation rates continue to rise. Significant adverse changes in inflation and prices in the future could result in material losses.
Currency Risk
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. A majority of our revenue is denominated in U.S. Dollars. However, as we have operations in foreign countries, primarily in Europe, a stronger U.S. Dollar could make our products and services more expensive in foreign countries and therefore reduce demand. A weaker U.S. Dollar could have the opposite effect. Such economic exposure to currency fluctuations is difficult to measure or predict because our sales are also influenced by many other factors.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, sales denominated in foreign currencies were approximately 11.2% of total revenue. Our results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. These foreign currencies primarily consist of the South African Rand, British Pound, Euro, and Australian Dollar. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a hypothetical 10% change in these foreign currencies would have increased or decreased our revenue by approximately $1.6 million. Actual gains and losses in the future may differ materially from the hypothetical gains and losses discussed above based on changes in the timing and amount of foreign currency exchange rate movements.
37
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are currently not party to any litigation, the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Other than the amended and additional risk factors set forth below, there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors of the Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2024. Any of the risks discussed in such report, as well as additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition or prospects.
The announcement and pendency of the Telematics Sale, whether or not consummated, may adversely affect our business.
The announcement and pendency of the Telematics Sale, whether or not consummated, may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, our business or our relationships with customers, distributors, suppliers, and employees. In addition, pending the completion of the Telematics Sale, we may be unable to attract and retain key personnel and the focus and attention of our management and employee resources may be diverted from operational matters.
We cannot be sure if or when the Telematics Sale will be completed.
The consummation of the Telematics Sale is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions, including, among others more fully described in the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser finalizing financing arrangements to fund the purchase price. We cannot guarantee that the closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement will be satisfied. If we are unable to satisfy the closing conditions in the Purchaser’s favor or if other mutual closing conditions are not satisfied, the Purchaser will not be obligated to complete the Telematics Sale. In the event that the Telematics Sale is not completed, the announcement of the termination of the Purchase Agreement may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, our business and operations or our relationships with customers, distributors, suppliers, and employees.
In addition, if the Telematics Sale is not completed, our board of directors, in discharging its fiduciary obligations to our stockholders, may evaluate other strategic alternatives that may be available, which alternatives may not be as favorable to us as the Telematics Sale.
We will incur significant expenses in connection with the Telematics Sale, regardless of whether the Telematics Sale is completed.
We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, significant expenses related to the Telematics Sale. These expenses include, but are not limited to, legal fees, financial advisory fees and accounting fees and expenses. Many of these expenses will be payable by us regardless of whether the Telematics Sale is completed.
Our debt service requirements are significant, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.
The outstanding principal amount of our 2025 Notes at September 30, 2024 was $106.8 million. The 2025 Convertible Notes have a maturity date of May 1, 2025. As disclosed elsewhere in this Report, subsequent to September 30, 2024 we completed the additional exchanges of $91.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes for, among other things, approximately $40.9 million in principal amount of New Senior Secured Notes. In addition, we incurred $19.5 million in principal amount of indebtedness, $6.0 million of which was outstanding as of September 30, 2024, pursuant to the Short-Term Loan, which matures on November 30, 2024. The Company’s intention is to repay the Short-Term Loan using proceeds from the sale of the Telematics Business or to refinance the Short-Term Loan, however, there can be no assurance that the sale of the Telematics Business will be consummated or that any required or desired restructuring or financing will be available on terms favorable to the Company, or at all.
Our ability to make scheduled payments on, or to refinance our indebtedness, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt and other fixed charges, fund working capital needs and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, refinancing or restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or dilutive. Our ability to refinance or restructure our indebtedness will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on

favorable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations. Any default under such indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are required to comply with certain financial and other covenants under the terms of our New Senior Secured Notes and our Short-Term Loan Agreement and, if we fail to meet those covenants or otherwise suffer a default thereunder, our lenders may accelerate the payment of such obligations.
The Indenture that sets forth the terms of the New Senior Secured Notes (the “New Notes Indenture”) contains covenants which put certain restrictions on our ability to incur liens, sell or transfer assets, incur other indebtedness, pay dividends, make investments, enter into transactions with affiliates, make other distributions or payments on account of any redemption, retirement or purchase of any capital stock or pay certain other indebtedness. In addition, the Loan and Security Agreement entered into in connection with the establishment of the Short-Term Loan (the “Short-Term Loan Agreement”) contains various covenants, restrictions and events of default. Among other things, these provisions require us to maintain a certain level of consolidated liquidity and impose certain limits on our ability to engage in certain activities. The restrictions in the New Notes Indenture and the Short-Term Loan Agreement impose operating and financial restrictions on us and may limit our ability to compete effectively, take advantage of new business opportunities or take other actions that may be in our, or our shareholders’, best interests. Further, various risks and uncertainties may impact our ability to comply with our obligations under the New Notes Indenture and/or the Short-Term Loan Agreement. Our obligations under the New Senior Secured Notes and the Short-Term Loan Agreement are secured by a continuing security interest in all property (other than certain excluded collateral) of the Company and each of the borrower parties.
Our inability to comply with any of the provisions of the New Notes Indenture and/or the Short-Term Loan Agreement could result in a default under the applicable agreement. If such a default under the New Notes Indenture and/or the Short-Term Loan Agreement occurs, the lenders may elect to demand payment in full of all or any portion of our obligations under the New Senior Secured Notes and/or the Short-Term Loan Agreement and, among other remedies, foreclose on our assets. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

(ii) Shares covered by an Award granted under the Plan shall not be counted against the Aggregate Share Limit unless and until they are actually issued and delivered to a Participant and, therefore, the total number of Shares available under the Plan as of a given date shall not be reduced by any Shares relating to prior Awards that have expired or have been forfeited or cancelled or terminated for any other reason other than being exercised or settled, and to the extent of payment in cash of the benefit provided by any Award granted under the Plan, any Shares that were covered by that Award will be available for issue or transfer hereunder. In addition, upon the full or partial payment of any Option Price by the transfer to the Company of Shares or upon satisfaction of tax withholding provisions in connection with any such exercise or any other payment made or benefit realized under this Plan by the transfer or relinquishment of Shares, there shall be deemed to have been issued under this Plan only the net number of Shares actually issued by the Company.
(iii) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 11 of the Plan, the aggregate number of Shares actually issued by the Company upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options will not exceed 7,000,000 Shares.
4. Option Rights. The Board may, from time to time, authorize the granting to Participants of Option Rights upon such terms and conditions consistent with the following provisions as it may determine:
(a) Each grant will specify the number of Shares to which it pertains subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 of the Plan.
(b) Each grant will specify an Option Price per share, which may not be less than (i) the Market Value Per Share on the Date of Grant or (ii) if the Person to whom an Incentive Stock Option is granted is a 10% Shareholder on the Date of Grant, 110% of the Market Value Per Share on the Date of Grant. However, an Incentive Stock Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Incentive Stock Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424 of the Code or if the Award is designated as a “Section 409A Award” and has either a fixed exercise date or a fixed delivery date.
(c) Each grant will specify whether the Option Price will be payable (i) in cash or by check acceptable to Inseego or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, (ii) by the actual or constructive transfer to Inseego of Shares owned by the Optionee (or other consideration authorized pursuant to Section 4(d)) having a value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price, (iii) by withholding by Inseego from the Shares otherwise deliverable to the Optionee upon the exercise of such Option Rights, a number of Shares having a value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price, (iv) by a combination of such methods of payment, or (v) by such other methods as may be approved by the Board.
(d) To the extent permitted by law, any grant may provide for deferred payment of the Option Price from the proceeds of sale through a bank or broker on a date satisfactory to Inseego of some or all of the Shares to which such exercise relates.
(e) Successive grants may be made to the same Participant whether or not any Option Rights previously granted to such Participant remain unexercised.
(f) Each grant will specify the period or periods of continuous service by the Optionee with Inseego or any Subsidiary that is necessary before the Option Rights or installments thereof will become exercisable; provided, however, that in the case of an Investor Director Provider, service will be deemed continuous as long as such Investor Director Provider has at least one representative on the Board who is an employee, direct or indirect owner, or service provider of such Investor Director Provider.
(g) Any grant of Option Rights may specify Management Objectives that must be achieved as a condition to the exercise of such rights.
(h) Option Rights granted under the Plan may be (i) Incentive Stock Options, (ii) options that are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or (iii) combinations of the foregoing. Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to Participants who are “employees” (under Section 3401(c) of the Code) of Inseego or a subsidiary of Inseego (under Section 424 of the Code). Any Option Right designated as an Incentive Stock Option will not be an Incentive Stock Option to the extent the Option Right fails to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Each grant will specify whether the Option Right is an Incentive Stock Option or an option that is not intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option.
(i) The Board may substitute, without receiving Participant permission, Appreciation Rights payable only in Shares (or Appreciation Rights payable in Shares or cash, or a combination of both, at the Board’s discretion) for outstanding Option Rights; provided , however , that the terms of the substituted Appreciation Rights are substantially the same as the terms for the Option Rights at the date of substitution and the difference between the Market Value Per Share of the underlying Shares and the Base Price of the Appreciation Rights is equivalent to the difference between the Market Value Per Share of the underlying Shares and the Option Price of the Option Rights. If the Board determines, based upon advice from Inseego’s accountants, that this provision creates adverse accounting consequences for Inseego, it shall be considered null and void.
(j) No Option Right will be exercisable more than 10 years from the Date of Grant; provided, however, that with respect to Incentive Stock Options issued to 10% Shareholders, the term of each such Option Right shall not exceed five (5) years from the date it is granted.
(k) No grant of Option Rights may provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other similar distributions to be paid on such Option Rights.
(l) No Option Right shall include terms entitling the Participant to a grant of Option Rights or Appreciation Rights on exercise of the Option Right.
5. Appreciation Rights. The Board may, from time to time, authorize the granting to any Participant of Appreciation Rights upon such terms and conditions consistent with the following provisions as it may determine:
(a) An Appreciation Right will be a right of the Participant to receive from Inseego an amount determined by the Board, which will be expressed as a percentage of the Spread (not exceeding 100 percent) at the time of exercise.
(b) Each grant will specify the Base Price, which may not be less than the Market Value Per Share on the Date of Grant.
(c) Any grant may specify that the amount payable on exercise of an Appreciation Right may be paid by Inseego in cash, in Shares or in any combination thereof and may retain for the Board the right to elect among those alternatives.
(d) Any grant may specify that the amount payable on exercise of an Appreciation Right may not exceed a maximum specified by the Board at the Date of Grant.
(e) Any grant may specify waiting periods before exercise and permissible exercise dates or periods.
(f) Each grant will specify the period or periods of continuous service by the Participant with Inseego or any Subsidiary that is necessary before such Appreciation Right or installments thereof will become exercisable;
7
provided, however, that in the case of an Investor Director Provider, service will be deemed continuous as long as such Investor Director Provider has at least one representative on the Board who is an employee, direct or indirect owner, or service provider of such Investor Director Provider.
(g) Any grant of Appreciation Rights may specify Management Objectives that must be achieved as a condition of the exercise of such Appreciation Rights.
(h) Successive grants may be made to the same Participant regardless of whether any Appreciation Rights previously granted to the Participant remain unexercised.
(i) No Appreciation Right granted under the Plan may be exercised more than 10 years from the Date of Grant.
(j) No grant of Appreciation Rights may provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other similar distributions to be paid on such Appreciation Rights.
(k) No Appreciation Right shall include terms entitling the Participant to a grant of Option Rights or Appreciation Rights on exercise of the Appreciation Right.
6. Restricted Stock. The Board may, from time to time, authorize the granting of Restricted Stock to Participants upon such terms and conditions consistent with the following provisions as it may determine:
(a) Each such grant will constitute an immediate transfer of the ownership of Shares to the Participant in consideration of the performance of services, entitling such Participant to voting, dividend and other ownership rights, but such rights shall be subject to such restrictions and the fulfillment of such conditions (which may include the achievement of Management Objectives) during the Restriction Period as the Board may determine.
(b) Each such grant may be made without additional consideration or in consideration of a payment by such Participant that is less than the Market Value Per Share at the Date of Grant.
(c) Each such grant will provide that the Restricted Stock covered by such grant that vests upon the passage of time will be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code for a Restriction Period to be determined by the Board at the Date of Grant or upon achievement of Management Objectives referred to in subparagraph (e) below.
(d) Each such grant will provide that during, and may provide that after, the Restriction Period, the transferability of the Restricted Stock will be prohibited or restricted in the manner and to the extent prescribed by the Board at the Date of Grant (which restrictions may include, without limitation, rights of repurchase or first refusal in Inseego or provisions subjecting the Restricted Stock to a continuing substantial risk of forfeiture in the hands of any transferee).
(e) Any grant of Restricted Stock may specify Management Objectives that, if achieved, will result in termination or early termination of the restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, any grant of Restricted Stock may provide for the earlier termination of restrictions on such Restricted Stock in the event of the retirement, death or disability, or other termination of employment of a Participant, or a Change in Control.
(g) Any such grant of Restricted Stock may require that any or all dividends or other distributions paid thereon during the Restriction Period be automatically deferred and reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock or paid in cash, which may be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying Award; provided, however, that dividends or other
distributions on Restricted Stock subject to Management Objectives shall be deferred and paid in cash upon the achievement of the applicable Management Objectives and the lapse of all restrictions on such Restricted Stock.
(h) Unless otherwise directed by the Board, (i) all certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock will be held in custody by Inseego until all restrictions thereon will have lapsed, together with a stock power or powers executed by the Participant in whose name such certificates are registered, endorsed in blank and covering such Shares, or (ii) all shares of Restricted Stock will be held at Inseego’s transfer agent in book entry form with appropriate restrictions relating to the transfer of such shares of Restricted Stock.
7. Restricted Stock Units. The Board may, from time to time, authorize the granting of Restricted Stock Units to Participants upon such terms and conditions consistent with the following provisions as it may determine:
(a) Each such grant will constitute the agreement by Inseego to deliver Shares or cash to the Participant in the future in consideration of the performance of services, but subject to such restrictions and the fulfillment of such conditions (which may include the achievement of Management Objectives) during the Restriction Period as the Board may specify.
(b) Each such grant may be made without additional consideration or in consideration of a payment by such Participant that is less than the Market Value Per Share at the Date of Grant.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, any grant of Restricted Stock Units may provide for the earlier lapse or modification of the Restriction Period in the event of the retirement, death or disability, or other termination of employment of a Participant, or a Change in Control.
(d) During the Restriction Period, the Participant will have no right to transfer any rights under his or her Award and will have no rights of ownership in the Restricted Stock Units and will have no right to vote them, but the Board may at the Date of Grant, authorize the payment of dividend equivalents on such Restricted Stock Units on either a current, deferred or contingent basis either in cash, additional Restricted Stock Units or in additional Shares; provided , however , that dividend equivalents on Restricted Stock Units subject to Management Objectives shall be deferred and paid in cash upon the achievement of the applicable Management Objectives and the lapse of all restrictions on such Restricted Stock Units.
(e) Each grant of Restricted Stock Units will specify the time and manner of payment of the Restricted Stock Units that have been earned.
8. Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares and Performance Units. The Board may, from time to time, authorize the granting of Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares and Performance Units that will become payable to a Participant upon achievement of specified Management Objectives during the Performance Period, upon such terms and conditions consistent with the following provisions as it may determine:
(a) Each grant will specify either the number of shares, or amount of cash, payable with respect to Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units to which it pertains, which number or amount payable may be subject to adjustment to reflect changes in compensation or other factors.
(b) The Performance Period with respect to each Annual Incentive Award, Performance Share or Performance Unit will be such period of time (not less than one year in the case of each Performance Share and Performance Unit), as will be determined by the Board at the time of grant, which Performance Period may be subject to earlier lapse or other modification in the event of the retirement, death or disability, or other termination of employment of a Participant, or a Change in Control.
(c) Any grant of Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units will specify Management Objectives that, if achieved, will result in payment or early payment of the Award and may set forth a formula for determining
9
the number of Shares, or amount of cash, payable with respect to Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units that will be earned if performance is at or above the minimum or threshold level or levels.
(d) Each grant will specify the time and manner of payment of Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units that have been earned. Any grant of Performance Shares or Performance Units may specify that the amount payable with respect thereto may be paid by Inseego in cash, in Shares or in any combination thereof and will retain in the Board the right to elect among those alternatives.
(e) Any grant of Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units may specify that the amount payable or the number of Shares issued with respect thereto may not exceed maximums specified by the Board at the Date of Grant.
(f) The Board may at the Date of Grant of Performance Shares provide for the payment of dividend equivalents to the holder thereof on either a current, deferred or contingent basis, either in cash or in additional Shares; provided, however, that dividend equivalents on Performance Shares shall be deferred and paid in cash upon the achievement of the applicable Management Objectives.
9. Other Awards.
(a) The Board may, subject to limitations under applicable law, grant to any Participant such Other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Shares or factors that may influence the value of such Shares, including, without limitation, awards consisting of securities or other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, purchase rights for Shares, awards with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or specified Subsidiaries, Affiliates or other business units thereof or any other factors designated by the Board, and awards valued by reference to the book value of Shares or the value of securities of, or the performance of specified Subsidiaries or Affiliates or other business units of Inseego. The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of such awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 9 shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such time, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, Other Awards, notes or other property, as the Board shall determine.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 15(b), cash Awards, as independent Awards or as an element of or supplement to any other Award granted under the Plan, may also be granted pursuant to this Section 9.
(c) The Board may grant Shares as a bonus, or may grant other Awards in lieu of obligations of Inseego or a Subsidiary to pay cash or deliver other property under the Plan or under other plans or compensatory arrangements, subject to such terms as shall be determined by the Board in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code.
10. Transferability.
(a) Except as otherwise determined by the Board, no Awards granted under the Plan and no rights under any such Awards shall be assignable, alienable, saleable, or transferable by the Participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and in no event shall any such Award granted under the Plan be transferred for value. Except as otherwise determined by the Board, Option Rights and Appreciation Rights will be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by him or her or, in the event of the Participant’s legal incapacity to do so, by his or her guardian or legal representative acting on behalf of the Participant in a fiduciary capacity under state law and/or court supervision.
(b) The Board may specify at the Date of Grant that part or all of the Shares that are to be issued by the Company upon the exercise of Option Rights or Appreciation Rights, upon the termination of the Restriction Period applicable to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or upon payment under any grant of Performance Shares, Performance Units or Other Awards will be subject to further restrictions on transfer.
11. Adjustments. The Board shall make or provide for such adjustments in the number of Shares covered by outstanding Option Rights, Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares and Performance Units granted hereunder and, if applicable, in the number of Shares covered by Other Awards, in the Option Price and Base Price provided in outstanding Option Rights or Appreciation Rights, and in the kind of Shares covered thereby, as the Board, in its sole discretion, may determine is equitably required to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants that otherwise would result from (a) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets, issuance of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (c) any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing. Moreover, in the event of any such transaction or event or in the event of a Change in Control, the Board, in its discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding Awards under the Plan such alternative consideration (including cash), if any, as it may determine to be equitable in the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the surrender of all Awards so replaced in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code. In addition, for each Option Right or Appreciation Right with an Option Price or Base Price greater than the consideration offered in connection with any such transaction or event or Change in Control, the Board may in its sole discretion elect to cancel such Option Right or Appreciation Right without any payment to the person holding such Option Right or Appreciation Right. The Board shall also make or provide for such adjustments in the number of Shares specified in Section 3 of the Plan as the Board in its sole discretion, may determine is appropriate to reflect any transaction or event described in this Section 11; provided , however , that any such adjustment to the number specified in Section 3(a)(iii) will be made only if and to the extent that such adjustment would not cause any Option Right intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option to fail so to qualify.
12. Administration of the Plan.
(a) The Plan will be administered by the Board, which may from time to time delegate all or any part of its authority under the Plan to the Committee. To the extent of any such delegation, references in the Plan to the Board will be deemed to be references to such Committee. A majority of the Committee will constitute a quorum, and the action of the members of the Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or acts unanimously approved in writing, will be the acts of the Committee.
(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, including any rule of the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Board or Committee may delegate its duties under the Plan to a Secondary Committee, subject to such conditions and limitations as the Board or Committee shall prescribe; provided, however, that: (i) only the Board or Committee may grant an Award to a Participant who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act; and (ii) the Secondary Committee shall report periodically to the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, regarding the nature and scope of the Awards granted pursuant to the authority delegated. To the extent of any such delegation, references or deemed references in the Plan to the Committee will be deemed to be references to such Secondary Committee. A majority of the Secondary Committee will constitute a quorum, and the action of the members of the Secondary Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or acts unanimously approved in writing, will be the acts of the Secondary Committee.
(c) The Board shall have full and exclusive discretionary power to interpret the terms and the intent of this Plan and any Evidence of Award or other agreement or document ancillary to or in connection with this Plan, to determine eligibility for Awards and to adopt such rules, regulations, forms, instruments, and guidelines for administering this Plan as the Board may deem necessary or proper. Such authority shall include, but not be limited to, selecting Award recipients, establishing all Award terms and conditions, including the terms and conditions set forth in an Evidence of Award, granting Awards as an alternative to or as the form of payment for grants or rights earned or due under compensation plans or arrangements of the Company, construing any ambiguous provision of the Plan or any Evidence of Award, and, subject to Sections 15 and 18, adopting modifications and amendments to this Plan or any Evidence of Award, including without limitation, any that are necessary to comply with the laws of the countries and other jurisdictions in which Inseego, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries operate. The grant of any Award that specifies Management Objectives that must be
11
achieved before such Award can be earned or paid will specify that, before such Award will be earned and paid, the Board must certify that the Management Objectives have been satisfied.
(d) The interpretation and construction by the Board of any provision of this Plan or of any Evidence of Award or other agreement or document ancillary to or in connection with this Plan and any determination by the Board pursuant to any provision of the Plan or of any such Evidence of Award or other agreement or document ancillary to or in connection with this Plan will be final and conclusive. No member of the Board will be liable for any such action or determination made in good faith.
(e) Any Participant who believes he or she is being denied any benefit or right under the Plan or under any Award or Evidence of Award may file a written claim with the Committee. Any claim must be delivered to the Committee within six month of the specific event giving rise to the claim. Untimely claims will not be processed and shall be deemed denied. The Committee, or its designee, generally will notify the Participant of its decision in writing as soon as administratively practicable. Claims shall be deemed denied if the Committee does not respond in writing within 180 days of the date the written claim is delivered to the Committee. The Committee’s decision is final and conclusive and binding on all Persons. No lawsuit or arbitration relating to the Plan may be filed or commenced before a written claim is filed with the Committee and is denied or deemed denied, and any lawsuit must be filed within one year of such denial or deemed denial or be forever barred.
13. Non U.S. Participants. In order to facilitate the making of any grant or combination of grants under the Plan, the Board may provide for such special terms for Awards to Participants who are foreign nationals or who are employed by Inseego or any Subsidiary outside of the United States of America, as the Board may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Moreover, the Board may approve such supplements to or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of the Plan (including without limitation, sub-plans) as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes, without thereby affecting the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose, and the Secretary or other appropriate officer of Inseego may certify any such document as having been approved and adopted in the same manner as the Plan. No such special terms, supplements, amendments or restatements, however, will include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of the Plan as then in effect unless the Plan could have been amended to eliminate such inconsistency without further approval by the stockholders of Inseego.
14. Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any payment made or benefit realized by a Participant or other Person under the Plan, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it will be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that the Participant or such other Person make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld, which arrangements (in the discretion of the Board) may include relinquishment of a portion of such benefit. If a Participant’s benefit is to be received in the form of Shares, and such Participant fails to make arrangements for the payment of tax, the Company shall withhold such Shares having a value that shall not exceed the statutory maximum amount permitted to be withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when a Participant is required to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable income and employment tax laws, the Participant may elect, or the Company may require the Participant, to satisfy the obligation, in whole or in part, by electing to have withheld, from the Shares required to be delivered to the Participant, Shares having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or by delivering to the Company other Shares held by such Participant. The Shares used for tax withholding will be valued at an amount equal to the Market Value Per Share of such Shares on the date the benefit is to be included in Participant’s income. Participants shall also make such arrangements as the Company may require for the payment of any withholding tax obligation that may arise in connection with the disposition of Shares acquired upon the exercise of Option Rights.
15. Amendments, Etc.
(a) The Board may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan must be approved by the stockholders of Inseego in order to comply with applicable law or the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market or, if the Shares are not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the principal national securities exchange upon which the Shares are traded or quoted, then, such amendment will be subject to stockholder approval and will not be effective unless and until such approval has been obtained.
(b) Except in connection with a corporate transaction or event described in Section 11 of the Plan, the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce the Option Price of outstanding Option Rights or the Base Price of outstanding Appreciation Rights, and no outstanding Option Rights or Appreciation Rights may be cancelled in exchange for other Awards, or cancelled in exchange for Option Rights or Appreciation Rights with an Option Price or Base Price, as applicable, that is less than the Option Price of the original Option Rights or Base Price of the original Appreciation Rights, as applicable, or cancelled in exchange for cash, without stockholder approval. This Section 15(b) is intended to prohibit (without stockholder approval) the repricing of “underwater” Option Rights and Appreciation Rights and will not be construed to prohibit the adjustments provided for in Section 11 of the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, this Section 15(b) may not be amended without approval by Inseego’s stockholders.
(c) If permitted by Section 409A of the Code, in case of termination of employment by reason of death, disability or normal or early retirement, or in the case of unforeseeable emergency or other special circumstances, of a Participant who holds an Option Right or Appreciation Right not immediately exercisable in full, or any Restricted Stock or any Restricted Stock Units as to which the Restriction Period has not been completed, or any Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units which have not been fully earned, or any Other Awards subject to any vesting schedule or transfer restriction, or who holds Shares subject to any transfer restriction imposed pursuant to Section 10(b) of the Plan, the Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which such Option Right, Appreciation Right or Other Award may be exercised or the time when such Restriction Period will end or the time at which such Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units will be deemed to have been fully earned or the time when such transfer restriction will terminate or may waive any other limitation or requirement under any such Award.
(d) Subject to Section 16(d) of the Plan, the Board may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted under the Plan prospectively or retroactively, but subject to Section 11 of the Plan, no such amendment shall impair the rights of any Participant without his or her consent, except as necessary to comply with changes in law or accounting rules applicable to Inseego. The Board may, in its discretion, terminate the Plan at any time.
Termination of the Plan will not affect the rights of Participants or their successors under any Awards outstanding hereunder on the date of termination.
16. Compliance with the Code.
(a) To the extent applicable, it is intended that the Plan and any grants made hereunder comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A of the Code do not apply to the Participants. The Plan and any grants made hereunder shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent. Any reference in the Plan to Section 409A of the Code will also include any regulations or any other formal guidance promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.
(b) Neither a Participant nor any of a Participant’s creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable under the Plan and grants hereunder to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable to a Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under the Plan and grants hereunder may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by a Participant to the Company or any of its Affiliates.
13
(c) If, at the time of a Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (i) the Participant shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and using the identification methodology selected by Inseego from time to time) and (ii) Inseego shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A of the Code in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, then Inseego shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it, without interest, on the tenth business day of the month after such six-month period.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan and grants hereunder to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of the Code, Inseego reserves the right to make amendments to the Plan and grants hereunder as Inseego deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, or adverse tax consequences under another Code provision, without Participant consent. In any case, a Participant shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on a Participant or for a Participant’s account in connection with the Plan and grants hereunder (including any taxes, penalties, and interest under Section 409A of the Code or another Code provision), and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold a Participant nor anyone other than a Participant, including a Participant’s estate or beneficiaries, harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
17. Governing Law. The Plan and all grants and Awards and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
18. Effective Date/Termination. The Plan originally became effective as of June 18, 2009. This amendment and restatement was adopted by the Board on May 11, 2018 and will become effective as of the date of shareholder approval, if ever. No grant will be made under the Plan more than 10 years after May 11, 2018, but all grants made on or prior to such date will continue in effect thereafter subject to the terms of the Evidence of Award conveying such grants and of the Plan.
19. Miscellaneous.
(a) Each grant of an Award will be evidenced by an Evidence of Award and will contain such terms and provisions, consistent with the Plan, as the Board may approve.
(b) Inseego will not be required to issue any fractional Shares pursuant to the Plan. The Board may provide for the elimination of fractional Shares or for the settlement of fractional Shares in cash.
(c) The Plan will not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or other service with Inseego or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, nor will it interfere in any way with any right Inseego or any Subsidiary or Affiliate would otherwise have to terminate such Participant’s employment or other service at any time.
(d) No person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the fact that a target Award is established for the job value or level for an Employee shall not entitle any Employee to an Award hereunder. Except as provided specifically herein, a Participant or a transferee of an Award shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by any Award until the date as of which he or she is actually recorded as the holder of such Shares upon the stock records of the Company.
(e) Determinations by the Board or the Committee under the Plan relating to the form, amount and terms and conditions of grants and Awards need not be uniform, and may be made selectively among persons who receive or are eligible to receive grants and Awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons are similarly situated.
(f) To the extent that any provision of the Plan would prevent any Option Right that was intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option from qualifying as such, that provision will be null and void with respect to such Option Right. Such provision, however, will remain in effect for other Option Rights and there will be no further effect on any provision of the Plan.
(g) No Award under the Plan may be exercised by the holder thereof if such exercise, and the receipt of cash or stock thereunder, would be, in the opinion of counsel selected by the Board, contrary to law or the regulations of any duly constituted authority having jurisdiction over the Plan.
(h) Absence or leave approved by a duly constituted officer of Inseego or any of its Subsidiaries shall not be considered interruption or termination of service of any Employee for any purposes of the Plan or Awards granted hereunder.
(i) The Board may condition the grant of any Award or combination of Awards authorized under the Plan on the surrender or deferral by the Participant of his or her right to receive a cash bonus or other compensation otherwise payable by Inseego or a Subsidiary to the Participant.
(j) If any provision of the Plan is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Board, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended or limited in scope to conform to applicable laws or, in the discretion of the Board, it shall be stricken and the remainder of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.
(k) Any Evidence of Award may: (i) provide for recoupment by the Company of all or any portion of an Award upon such terms and conditions as the Board or Committee may specify in such Evidence of Award; or (ii) include restrictive covenants, including, without limitation, non-competition, non-disparagement and confidentiality conditions or restrictions, that the Participant must comply with during employment by or service to the Company and/or within a specified period after termination as a condition to the Participant’s receipt or retention of all or any portion of an Award. This Section 19(k) shall not be the Company’s exclusive remedy with respect to such matters. This Section 19(k) shall not apply after a Change in Control, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Evidence of Award.

2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
The Plan and Other Agreements | The text of the Plan is incorporated into this Award Agreement by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Award Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall govern. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Award Agreement are defined in the Plan. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Award Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect your rights under this Award Agreement without your consent (provided, however, that your consent shall not be required to an amendment that is deemed necessary by the Company to ensure compliance with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”)). The Option Grant, this Award Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding these Options. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning these Options are hereby superseded entirely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a written employment agreement, change-in-control agreement, severance agreement or other similar written agreement or arrangement (an “Employment Arrangement”) that has been approved by the Board or a committee thereof provides for greater benefits to the Optionee than provided in the Option Grant, this Award Agreement or the Plan with respect to (a) vesting of the Options upon termination of employment or in the event of a Change in Control, or (b) exercisability of the Options following termination of employment, then the terms of the Employment Arrangement with respect to these matters shall supersede the terms of the Option Grant and this Award Agreement to the extent permitted by the Plan. | ||||
Nonstatutory Stock Option | These Options are not intended to be Incentive Stock Options under section 422 of the Code and will be interpreted accordingly. | ||||
Vesting | These Options are exercisable only before they expire and then only with respect to those that are vested. These Options will vest according to the Vesting Schedule on the attached cover sheet. | ||||
Term | These Options will expire in any event at the close of business at Company headquarters on the 10th anniversary of the Date of Option Grant, as shown on the cover sheet. These Options will expire earlier if your service terminates, as described below. | ||||
Regular Termination | If your service terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability (as defined below), or Cause (as defined below), then, except as otherwise provided in an Employment Arrangement, these Options will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the 90th calendar day after your service termination date. | ||||
Termination for Cause | If your service is terminated for Cause, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, then immediately upon such event you automatically forfeit all rights to these Options and they shall immediately expire. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Cause” shall mean the termination of your service due to your commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or dishonesty; any unauthorized use or disclosure by you of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof; or any other intentional misconduct on your part that adversely affects the business or affairs of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof in a material manner. This definition shall not restrict in any way the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s right to discharge you for any other reason, nor shall this definition be deemed to be inclusive of all the acts or omissions which constitute “Cause” for purposes other than this Award Agreement. | ||||
Death | If your service terminates because of your death, then, except as otherwise provided in an Employment Arrangement, these Options will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after the date of death. At any time during that twelve (12) month period, your estate or heirs may exercise those Options which were vested as of the date of your death. | ||||
Disability | If your service terminates because of your Disability, then, except as otherwise provided in an Employment Arrangement, these Options will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after your service termination date. At any time during that twelve (12) month period, you may exercise those Options which were vested as of the date your service terminated because of your Disability. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Disability” shall mean that you are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months. |
Leave of Absence | For purposes of these Options, your service is not interrupted or terminated when you go on a leave of absence that was approved in writing by a duly constituted officer of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof. Your service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active work at the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof. The Company, in its sole discretion, determines which leaves count for this purpose, as well as the point in time your service terminates for all purposes under the Plan. | ||||
Method of Exercise | When you wish to exercise any of these Options, you must provide written notice to the Company, or use such other method of exercise as may be specified by the Company, including exercise by electronic means on the web site of the Company’s third-party equity plan administrator, which will specify how many Options you wish to exercise. If someone else wants to exercise these Options after your death, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so. | ||||
Form of Payment | When you exercise Options, you must remit payment of the Option Price for the Shares you are purchasing at that time and any Tax-Related Items (as defined below). Payment may be made in one or a combination of the following forms: Cash, your personal check, a cashier’s check or a money order. By delivery (on a form or by electronic means prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate Option Price and any Tax-Related Items. |
LEGAL_US_W # 95085990.3 |
Withholding Taxes | Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Options, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Options to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. You acknowledge that neither the Company nor the Employer shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such Tax-Related Items. Further, if you are subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: 1. withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; or 2. withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired at exercise, either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization); or 3. withholding in Shares to be issued at exercise. To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Options exercised, notwithstanding that a number of Shares is retained solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan. Finally, you will pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares or the proceeds from the sale of Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. | ||||
Transfer of Options | Prior to your death, only you may exercise these Options, or in the case of legal incapacity, your guardian or legal representative may act on your behalf. You cannot transfer or assign these Options. For instance, you may not sell the Options themselves or use them as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, the Options will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of these Options in your will. Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor your spouse’s interest in these Options in any way. | ||||
Retention Rights | These Options or this Award Agreement do not give you the right to be retained or to continue to be retained by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof in any employment or other capacity. The Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof reserves the right to terminate your service at any time and for any reason. | ||||
Stockholder Rights | You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company until you are recorded as the holder of the Shares upon the stock records of the Company. No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before you are recorded as the holder of the Shares, except as otherwise described in the Plan. | ||||
Adjustments | In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Company stock, the number of Shares covered by these Options and the Option Price may be adjusted (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) pursuant to the Plan. These Options shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity. |

______________________________________
Stock Unit Award Agreement
1.The Plan and Other Agreements. The text of the Plan is incorporated into this Award Agreement by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Award Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall govern. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Award Agreement are defined in the Plan. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Award Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect your rights under this Award Agreement without your consent (provided, however, that your consent shall not be required to an amendment that is deemed necessary by the Company to ensure compliance with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”). The Stock Unit Grant, this Award Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding these Stock Units. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning these Stock Units are hereby superseded entirely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a written employment agreement, change-in-control agreement, severance agreement or other similar written agreement or arrangement (an “Employment Arrangement”) that has been approved by the Board or a committee thereof provides for greater benefits to the Grantee than provided in the Stock Unit Grant, this Award Agreement or the Plan with respect to vesting of the Stock Units upon termination of employment or in the event of a Change in Control, then the terms of the Employment Arrangement with respect to these matters shall supersede the terms of the Stock Unit Grant and this Award Agreement to the extent permitted by the Plan.
2.Termination of Service; Leaves of Absence. Subject to Section 1 above, this Award shall be canceled and become automatically null and void immediately upon termination of your service to the Company or its Subsidiary or Affiliate for any reason, but only to the extent you have not become vested, pursuant to the foregoing terms, on or at the time your service to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof ends. For purposes of the Award, your service is not interrupted or terminated when you go on a leave of absence that is approved in writing by a duly constituted officer of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof. Your service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active work at the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof. The Company, in its sole discretion, determines which leaves count for this purpose, as well as the point in time your service terminates for all purposes under the Plan.
3.Satisfaction of Vesting Restrictions. No Shares will be issued before you complete the requirements that are necessary for you to vest in your Stock Units. As soon as practicable after the date on which your Stock Units vest in whole or in part, the Company will issue to you, free from vesting restrictions (but subject to such legends as the Company determines to be appropriate), one Share for each vested Stock Unit; provided, however, that, by accepting this Award Agreement, you authorize the Company to withhold taxes pursuant to Section 7 below.
4.Investment Purposes. By accepting this Award, you represent and warrant to the Company that any Shares issued to you pursuant to your Stock Units will be for investment for your own account and not with a view to, for resale in connection with, or with an intent of participating directly or indirectly in, any distribution of such Shares within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. You further acknowledge and agree that your ability to sell any Shares issued to you pursuant to your Stock Units may be limited by applicable securities laws and the Company’s Insider Trading Policy then in effect.
5.Dividend Equivalents. When Shares are delivered to you pursuant to the vesting of your Stock Units, you shall also be entitled to receive, with respect to each Share issued or withheld by the Company pursuant to Section 3, (a) a number of Shares equal to the per Share stock dividends which were declared and paid to the holders of Shares between the Date of Grant and the date such Shares are delivered to you, and (b) a number of Shares having a Fair
Market Value (on the date of each cash dividend payment date) equal to any per Share cash dividends that were paid to the holders of Shares based on a record date falling between the Date of Grant and the date such Shares are delivered to you. To the extent that your service ends before vesting of all the Stock Units, you will forfeit all dividend equivalents (whether paid in cash or in stock) attributable to all Shares underlying such unvested Stock Units.
6.Restrictions on Transfer of Award. Your rights under this Award Agreement may not be sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Board. If you attempt to do any of these things, the Stock Units will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of these Stock Units in your will. Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor your spouse’s interest in these Stock Units in any way.
7.Income Taxes and Deferred Compensation. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Units, including the grant of the Stock Units, the vesting of Stock Units, the settlement of the Stock Units with Shares, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired at vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. You acknowledge that neither the Company nor the Employer shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such Tax-Related Items. Further, if you are subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
The Board shall have the sole discretion to interpret the requirements of the Code for purposes of the Plan and this Award Agreement. The Board has the discretion to unilaterally modify this Award as necessary to conform with U.S. law. This includes the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, of the Board to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Award Agreement to conform with applicable U.S. law, including to ensure that the grant and administration of this Award qualifies for exemption from the application of the taxes imposed by Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Company makes no representation that this Award is not now, nor in the future, subject to the taxes imposed by Section 409A of the Code nor undertakes to preclude such taxes from applying to this Award.
Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
1. withholding a number of Shares otherwise deliverable to you from time to time equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below); or
2. withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; or
3. withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization).
To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of Shares is retained solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan.
The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a number of Shares equal to the quotient of the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the vesting of your Award on the relevant Vesting Date, divided by the Fair Market Value of one Share on the relevant Vesting Date or as otherwise provided in the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of Shares as described herein, you understand that you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the settled Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the Stock Units.
You shall pay to the Company or to the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your receipt of Stock Units, the vesting of Stock Units, or the settlement of vested Stock Units with Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver Shares to you if you fail to comply with your obligation in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
8.Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted by any provision of this Award Agreement to be given to you shall be in writing and shall be delivered electronically, personally, or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to you at the last address that the Company or the Employer had for you on its records. Each party may, from time to time, by notice to the other party hereto, specify a new address for delivery of notices relating to this Award Agreement. Any such notice shall be deemed to be given as of the date such notice is personally delivered or properly mailed.
The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Stock Units awarded under the Plan or future Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request your consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
9.Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Agreement or in the Plan, every covenant, term, and provision of this Award Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, transferees, and assigns.
10.Modifications. Subject to Section 7 hereof, this Award Agreement may not be modified or amended without your prior consent.
11.Headings. Section and other headings contained in this Award Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope or intent of this Award Agreement or any provision hereof.
12.Severability. The provisions of this Award Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.
13.Stockholder Rights. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company until you are recorded as the holder of the Shares upon the stock records of the Company. No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before you are recorded as the holder of the Shares, except as otherwise described in the Plan.
14.Adjustments. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Company stock, the number of Shares covered by these Stock Units may be adjusted (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) pursuant to the Plan. These Stock Units shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity.
15.No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendation regarding your participation in the Plan, or your acquisition or sale of the underlying
Shares. You are hereby advised to consult your own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding your participation in the Plan and before taking any action related to the Plan.
16.Not a Contract of Employment. By accepting this Award Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that (a) any person whose service is terminated before full vesting of an award, such as the one granted to you by this Award, could claim that his or her service was terminated to preclude vesting; (b) you will never make such a claim; (c) nothing in this Award Agreement or the Plan confers on you any right to continue a service relationship with the Company, nor shall anything in this Award Agreement or the Plan affect in any way your right or the rights of the Company or the Employer to terminate your service at any time, with or without cause; and (d) the Company would not have granted this Award to you but for these acknowledgements and agreements.
17.Governing Law. This Award Agreement, the construction of its terms, and the interpretation of the rights and duties of the parties hereto are governed by, and subject to, the internal substantive laws but not the choice of law rules of the State of Delaware, as provided in the Plan. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties evidenced by this Award Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of San Diego County, California, or the federal courts of the United States for the Southern District of California, and no other courts, where this Award is made and/or to be performed.
Exhibit 10.2
AMENDED AND RESTATED INSEEGO CORP. 2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN (AS AMENDED EFFECTIVE JULY 30, 2024) |
Article I.
PURPOSE
PURPOSE
The purpose of this Plan is to assist Eligible Employees of the Company and its Designated Subsidiaries in acquiring a stock ownership interest in the Company.
The Plan consists of two components: (i) the Section 423 Component and (ii) the Non-Section 423 Component. The Section 423 Component is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code and shall be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. The Non-Section 423 Component authorizes the grant of rights which need not qualify as rights granted pursuant to an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. Rights granted under the Non-Section 423 Component shall be granted pursuant to separate Offerings containing such sub-plans, appendices, rules or procedures as may be adopted by the Administrator and designed to achieve tax, securities laws or other objectives for Eligible Employees and Designated Subsidiaries but shall not be intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator or provided herein, the Non-Section 423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the Section 423 Component. Offerings intended to be made under the Non-Section 423 Component will be designated as such by the Administrator at or prior to the time of such Offering.
For purposes of this Plan, the Administrator may designate separate Offerings under the Plan in which Eligible Employees will participate. The terms of these Offerings need not be identical, even if the dates of the applicable Offering Period(s) in each such Offering are identical, provided that the terms of participation are the same within each separate Offering under the Section 423 Component (as determined under Section 423 of the Code). Solely by way of example and without limiting the foregoing, the Company could, but shall not be required to, provide for simultaneous Offerings under the Section 423 Component and the Non-Section 423 Component of the Plan.
This Plan constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Inseego Corp. Amended and Restated 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Prior Plan”).

Section 1.423-2(a)(1), the terms of each separate Offering under the Section 423 Component need not be identical, provided that the terms of the Section 423 Component and an Offering thereunder together satisfy Treas.

Any Eligible Employee who shall be employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary on a given Enrollment Date for an Offering Period shall be eligible to participate in the Plan during such Offering Period, subject to the requirements of this Article V and, for the Section 423 Component, the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code.
V.2Enrollment in Plan.
(a)Except as otherwise set forth in an Offering Document or determined by the Administrator, an Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan for an Offering Period by delivering a subscription agreement to the Company by such time prior to the Enrollment Date for such Offering Period (or such other date specified in the Offering Document) designated by the Administrator and in such form as the Company provides.
(b)Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, each subscription agreement shall designate a whole percentage of such Eligible Employee’s Compensation to be withheld by the Company or the Designated Subsidiary employing such Eligible Employee on each Payday during
6

Exhibit 10.2
the Offering Period as payroll deductions under the Plan. The percentage of Compensation designated by an Eligible Employee may not be less than 1% and may not be more than the maximum percentage specified by the Administrator in the applicable Offering Document (which percentage shall be 10% in the absence of any such designation) as payroll deductions. The payroll deductions made for each Participant shall be credited to an account for such Participant under the Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company.
(c)A Participant may increase or decrease the percentage of Compensation designated in his or her subscription agreement, subject to the limits of this Section 5.2, or may suspend his or her payroll deductions, at any time during an Offering Period; provided, however, that the Administrator may limit the number of changes a Participant may make to his or her payroll deduction elections during each Offering Period in the applicable Offering Document (and in the absence of any specific designation by the Administrator, a Participant shall be allowed to decrease (but not increase) or suspend his or her payroll deduction elections one time during each Offering Period). Any such change or suspension of payroll deductions shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of the new subscription agreement (or such shorter or longer period as may be specified by the Administrator in the applicable Offering Document). In the event a Participant suspends his or her payroll deductions, such Participant’s cumulative payroll deductions prior to the suspension shall remain in his or her account and shall be applied to the purchase of Shares on the next occurring Purchase Date and shall not be paid to such Participant unless he or she withdraws from participation in the Plan pursuant to Article VII.
(d)Except as otherwise set forth in an Offering Document or determined by the Administrator, a Participant may participate in the Plan only by means of payroll deduction and may not make contributions by lump sum payment for any Offering Period.
V.3Payroll Deductions. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Offering Document or determined by the Administrator, payroll deductions for a Participant shall commence on the first Payday following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last Payday in the Offering Period to which the Participant’s authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Article VII or suspended by the Participant or the Administrator as provided in Section 5.2 and Section 5.6, respectively. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in non-U.S. jurisdictions where participation in the Plan through payroll deductions is prohibited, the Administrator may provide that an Eligible Employee may elect to participate through contributions to the Participant’s account under the Plan in a form acceptable to the Administrator in lieu of or in addition to payroll deductions; provided, however, that, for any Offering under the Section 423 Component, the Administrator shall take into consideration any limitations under Section 423 of the Code when applying an alternative method of contribution.
V.4Effect of Enrollment. A Participant’s completion of a subscription agreement will enroll such Participant in the Plan for each subsequent Offering Period on the terms contained therein until the Participant either submits a new subscription agreement, withdraws from participation under the Plan as provided in Article VII or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan.
V.5Limitation on Purchase of Shares. An Eligible Employee may be granted rights under the Section 423 Component only if such rights, together with any other rights granted to such Eligible Employee under “employee stock purchase plans” of the Company, any Parent or any Subsidiary, as
7
|
Exhibit 10.2
specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined as of the first day of the Offering Period during which such rights are granted) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time. This limitation shall be applied in accordance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code.
V.6Suspension of Payroll Deductions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 5.5 (with respect to the Section 423 Component) or the other limitations set forth in this Plan, a Participant’s payroll deductions may be suspended by the Administrator at any time during an Offering Period. The balance of the amount credited to the account of each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares by reason of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, Section 5.5 or the other limitations set forth in this Plan shall be paid to such Participant in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchase Date.
V.7Foreign Employees. In order to facilitate participation in the Plan, the Administrator may provide for such special terms applicable to Participants who are citizens or residents of a foreign jurisdiction, or who are employed by a Designated Subsidiary outside of the United States, as the Administrator may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Except as permitted by Section 423 of the Code, with respect to the Section 423 Component, such special terms may not be more favorable than the terms of rights granted under the Section 423 Component to Eligible Employees who are residents of the United States. Such special terms may be set forth in an addendum to the Plan in the form of an appendix or sub-plan (which appendix or sub-plan may be designed to govern Offerings under the Section 423 Component or the Non-Section 423 Component, as determined by the Administrator). To the extent that the terms and conditions set forth in an appendix or sub-plan conflict with any provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the appendix or sub-plan shall govern. The adoption of any such appendix or sub-plan shall be pursuant to Section 11.2(g). Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures, with respect to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed in non-U.S. jurisdictions, regarding the exclusion of particular Subsidiaries from participation in the Plan, eligibility to participate, the definition of Compensation, handling of payroll deductions or other contributions by Participants, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, data privacy security, payroll tax, withholding procedures, establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold payroll deductions or contributions.
Article VI.
GRANT AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS
GRANT AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS
VI.1Grant of Rights. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted a right to purchase the maximum number of Shares specified under Section 4.2, subject to the limits in Section 5.5, and shall have the right to buy, on each Purchase Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price), such number of whole Shares as is determined by dividing (a) such Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Purchase Date and retained in the Participant’s account as of the Purchase Date, by (b) the applicable Purchase Price (rounded down to the nearest Share). The right shall expire on the earliest of: (x) the last Purchase Date of the Offering Period, (y) the last day of the Offering Period, and (z) the date on which the Participant withdraws in accordance with Section 7.1 or Section 7.3.
8
|
Exhibit 10.2
VI.2Exercise of Rights. On each Purchase Date, each Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions and any other additional payments specifically provided for in the applicable Offering Document will be applied to the purchase of whole Shares, up to the maximum number of Shares permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Offering Document, at the Purchase Price. No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of rights granted under the Plan, unless the Offering Document specifically provides otherwise. Any cash in lieu of fractional Shares remaining after the purchase of whole Shares upon exercise of a purchase right will be credited to a Participant’s account and carried forward and applied toward the purchase of whole Shares for the next following Offering Period, unless the Administrator provides that such amounts should be returned to the Participant in one lump sum payment in a subsequent payroll check. Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Administrator may determine and may be issued in certificated form or issued pursuant to book-entry procedures.
VI.3Pro Rata Allocation of Shares. If the Administrator determines that, on a given Purchase Date, the number of Shares with respect to which rights are to be exercised may exceed (a) the number of Shares that were available for issuance under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (b) the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan on such Purchase Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion provide that the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the Shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Purchase Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all Participants for whom rights to purchase Shares are to be exercised pursuant to this Article VI on such Purchase Date, and shall either (i) continue all Offering Periods then in effect, or (ii) terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Article IX. The Company may make pro rata allocation of the Shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional Shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date. The balance of the amount credited to the account of each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares shall be paid to such Participant without interest in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchase Date, or such earlier date as determined by the Administrator.
VI.4Withholding. At the time a Participant’s rights under the Plan are exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Shares issued under the Plan is disposed of, the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, that arise upon the exercise of the right or the disposition of the Shares. At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation or Shares received pursuant to the Plan the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Shares by the Participant.
VI.5Conditions to Issuance of Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for, or make any book entries evidencing, Shares purchased upon the exercise of rights under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (a) the admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges, if any, on which the Shares are then listed; (b) the completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body, that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; (c)
9
|
Exhibit 10.2
the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; (d) the payment to the Company of all amounts that it is required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon exercise of the rights, if any; and (e) the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the rights as the Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience.
Article VII.
WITHDRAWAL; CESSATION OF ELIGIBILITY
WITHDRAWAL; CESSATION OF ELIGIBILITY
VII.1Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw all but not less than all of the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her rights under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in a form acceptable to the Company no later than one (1) week prior to the end of the Offering Period (or such shorter or longer period as may be specified by the Administrator in the applicable Offering Document). All of the Participant’s payroll deductions credited to his or her account during an Offering Period shall be paid to such Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of Shares shall be made for such Offering Period. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions shall not resume at the beginning of the next Offering Period unless the Participant is an Eligible Employee and timely delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement.
VII.2Future Participation. A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period shall not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary or in subsequent Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws.
VII.3Cessation of Eligibility. Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee for any reason, he or she shall be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan pursuant to this Article VII and the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 12.4, as soon as reasonably practicable, and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated. If a Participant transfers employment from the Company or any Designated Subsidiary participating in the Section 423 Component to any Designated Subsidiary participating in the Non-Section 423 Component, such transfer shall not be treated as a termination of employment under the Plan, but the Participant shall immediately cease to participate in the Section 423 Component; however, any contributions made for the Offering Period in which such transfer occurs shall be transferred to the Non-Section 423 Component, and such Participant shall immediately join the then-current Offering under the Non-Section 423 Component upon the same terms and conditions in effect for the Participant’s participation in the Section 423 Component, except for such modifications otherwise applicable for Participants in such Offering. A Participant who transfers employment from any Designated Subsidiary participating in the Non-Section 423 Component to the Company or any Designated Subsidiary participating in the Section 423 Component shall not be treated as terminating the Participant’s employment under the Plan and shall remain a Participant in the Non-Section 423 Component until the earlier of (i) the end of the current Offering Period under the Non-Section 423 Component or (ii) the Enrollment Date of the first Offering Period in which the Participant is eligible to participate following such transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may establish different rules to govern
10
|
Exhibit 10.2
transfers of employment between entities participating in the Section 423 Component and the Non-Section 423 Component, consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
Article VIII.
ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SHARES
ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SHARES
VIII.1Changes in Capitalization. Subject to Section 8.3, in the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), change in control, reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, combination, repurchase, redemption, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, as determined by the Administrator, affects the Shares such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any outstanding purchase rights under the Plan, the Administrator shall make equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect such change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 3.1 and the limitations established in each Offering Document pursuant to Section 4.2 on the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased); (b) the class(es) and number of Shares and price per Share subject to outstanding rights; and (c) the Purchase Price with respect to any outstanding rights.
VIII.2Other Adjustments. Subject to Section 8.3, in the event of any transaction or event described in Section 8.1 or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in Applicable Law or accounting principles, the Administrator, in its discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any right under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles:
(a)To provide for either (i) termination of any outstanding right in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such right had such right been currently exercisable or (ii) the replacement of such outstanding right with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion;
(b)To provide that the outstanding rights under the Plan shall be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar rights covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices;
(c)To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding rights under the Plan and/or in the terms and conditions of outstanding rights and rights that may be granted in the future;
11
|
Exhibit 10.2
(d)To provide that Participants’ accumulated payroll deductions may be used to purchase Shares prior to the next occurring Purchase Date on such date as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion and the Participants’ rights under the ongoing Offering Period(s) shall be terminated; and
(e)To provide that all outstanding rights shall terminate without being exercised.
VIII.3No Adjustment Under Certain Circumstances. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, no adjustment or action described in this Article VIII or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Section 423 Component of the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
VIII.4No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to outstanding rights under the Plan or the Purchase Price with respect to any outstanding rights.
Article IX.
AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION
AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION
IX.1Amendment, Modification and Termination. The Administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and from time to time; provided, however, that approval of the Company’s stockholders shall be required to amend the Plan to: (a) increase the aggregate number, or change the type, of shares that may be sold pursuant to rights under the Plan under Section 3.1 (other than an adjustment as provided by Article VIII) or (b) change the corporations or classes of corporations whose employees may be granted rights under the Plan.
IX.2Certain Changes to Plan.

IX.3Actions In the Event of Unfavorable Financial Accounting Consequences. In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or
12
|
Exhibit 10.2
desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to:
(a)altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period including an Offering Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price;
(b)shortening any Offering Period so that the Offering Period ends on a new Purchase Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Administrator action; and

Such modifications or amendments shall not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Participant.
IX.4Payments Upon Termination of Plan.

The Administrator may delegate administrative tasks under the Plan to the services of an Agent or Employees to assist in the administration of the Plan, including establishing and maintaining an individual securities account under the Plan for each Participant.

Article XII.
MISCELLANEOUS
MISCELLANEOUS
XII.1Restriction upon Assignment. A right granted under the Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or the Applicable Laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. Except as provided in Section 12.4 hereof, a right under the Plan may not be exercised to any extent except by the Participant. The Company shall not recognize and shall be under no duty to recognize any assignment or alienation of the Participant’s interest in the Plan, the Participant’s rights under the Plan or any rights thereunder.
XII.2Rights as a Stockholder. With respect to Shares subject to a right granted under the Plan, a Participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder of the Company, and the Participant shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder, until such Shares have been issued to the Participant or his or her nominee following exercise of the Participant’s rights under the Plan. No adjustments shall be
14
|
Exhibit 10.2
made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash securities, or other property) or distribution or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to the date of such issuance, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as determined by the Administrator.
XII.3Interest. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions or contributions of a Participant under the Plan.
XII.4Designation of Beneficiary.
(a)A Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Shares and/or cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to a Purchase Date on which the Participant’s rights are exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of such Shares and cash. In addition, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the Participant’s rights under the Plan. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse as his or her beneficiary shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s spouse.
(b)Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by written notice to the Company. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such Shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such Shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.
XII.5Notices. All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.
XII.6Equal Rights and Privileges. Subject to Section 5.7, all Eligible Employees will have equal rights and privileges under the Section 423 Component so that the Section 423 Component of this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code. Subject to Section 5.7, any provision of the Section 423 Component that is inconsistent with Section 423 of the Code will, without further act or amendment by the Company, the Board or the Administrator, be reformed to comply with the equal rights and privileges requirement of Section 423 of the Code. Eligible Employees participating in the Non-Section 423 Component need not have the same rights and privileges as other Eligible Employees participating in the Non-Section 423 Component or as Eligible Employees participating in the Section 423 Component.
XII.7Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.
15

Exhibit 10.2
XII.8Reports. Statements of account shall be given to Participants at least annually, which statements shall set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of Shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.
XII.9No Employment Rights. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any person (including any Eligible Employee or Participant) the right to remain in the employ of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or affect the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any person (including any Eligible Employee or Participant) at any time, with or without cause.
XII.10Notice of Disposition of Shares. Each Participant shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any Shares purchased upon exercise of a right under the Section 423 Component of the Plan if such disposition or transfer is made: (a) within two (2) years from the Enrollment Date of the Offering Period in which the Shares were purchased or (b) within one (1) year after the Purchase Date on which such Shares were purchased. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the Participant in such disposition or other transfer.
XII.11Governing Law. The Plan and any agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, disregarding any state’s choice of law principles requiring the application of a jurisdiction’s laws other than the State of Delaware.
XII.12Electronic Forms. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law and in the discretion of the Administrator, an Eligible Employee may submit any form or notice as set forth herein by means of an electronic form approved by the Administrator. Before the commencement of an Offering Period, the Administrator shall prescribe the time limits within which any such electronic form shall be submitted to the Administrator with respect to such Offering Period in order to be a valid election.
12.13 Section 409A. The Section 423 Component of the Plan and the rights to purchase Shares granted pursuant to Offerings thereunder are intended to be exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code and the U.S. Department of Treasury Regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”). Neither the Non-Section 423 Component nor any right to purchase Shares granted pursuant to an Offering thereunder is intended to constitute or provide for “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that any right to purchase Shares granted under the Plan may be or become subject to Section 409A or that any provision of the Plan may cause a right to purchase Shares granted under the Plan to be or become subject to Section 409A, the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and/or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions as the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, either through compliance with the requirements of Section 409A or with an available exemption therefrom.

AMENDED AND RESTATED INSEEGO CORP.
2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
SUB-PLAN FOR
INTERNATIONAL PARTICIPANTS
1.APPLICATION
This Sub-Plan for Participants in non-U.S. jurisdictions in the Amended and Restated Inseego Corp. 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (this “Sub-Plan”) sets forth additional terms and conditions applicable to the rights granted to, and the shares of Common Stock purchased by, Eligible Employees in the countries set forth below.
The Plan and this Sub-Plan are complimentary to each other and shall be deemed as one. In any case of contradiction between the provisions of this Sub-Plan and the Plan, the provisions set out in the Sub-Plan shall prevail. Any capitalized terms used in this Sub-Plan but not defined shall have the meaning given to those terms in the Plan.
2.GLOBAL PROVISIONS
(a)Data Protection. It shall be a term and condition for participation in the Plan that a Participant explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of a Participant’s personal “Data” (as defined below) by and among, as applicable, the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary and a Participant’s employing entity (the “Employer”), if different, and their affiliates (collectively, the “Company Group”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Company Group holds certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, employee identification number, NRIC or passport number or equivalent, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all options or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”). Data will be transferred to such stock plan service providers, as may be prudently selected by the Company, which are assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The recipients of the Data may be located in the United States of America or elsewhere (and, if the Participant is a resident of a member state of the European Union, may be outside the European Economic Area) and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States of America) may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country. The Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of all recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Each Participant hereby authorizes the Company Group and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Company will also make the Data available to public authorities where required under locally applicable law. A Participant may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case, without cost, by

Exhibit 10.2
contacting in writing the Participant’s local human resources representative. A Participant’s refusal to provide consent or withdrawal of consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. This section applies to information held, used or disclosed in any medium.
If Participant resides in the UK or the European Union, the Company Group will hold, collect and otherwise process certain Data as set out in the applicable Company’s GDPR-compliant data privacy notice, which will be or has been provided to the Participant separately. All personal data will be treated in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations.
(b)Acknowledgment of Nature of Plan and Rights. In participating in the Plan, each Participant acknowledges that:
(i)for employment and labor law purposes, the rights granted and the shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan are an extraordinary item that do not constitute wages of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary or the Employer, and the award of rights is outside the scope of Participant’s service contract, if any;
(ii)for employment and labor law purposes, the rights granted and the Common Stock purchased under the Plan are not part of normal or expected wages or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculation of any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, holiday pay, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer, its Parent or any Subsidiary of the Company;
(iii)the rights and the shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan are not intended to be an integral component of compensation or to replace any pension rights or compensation;
(iv)neither the rights nor any provision of Plan or the policies adopted pursuant to the Plan confer upon any Participant any right with respect to service or continuation of current service and shall not be interpreted to form a service contract or relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary;
(v)the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(vi)if the underlying shares of Common Stock do not increase in value, the right may have no value; and
(vii)if a Participant acquires shares of Common Stock, the value of the shares of Common Stock acquired upon purchase may increase or decrease in value, even below the original price paid.
