FL Investment Holdings LLC (FKA Globalstar Holdings, LLC), Thermo Funding II LLC, Globalstar Satellite, L.P. and James Monroe III (including a trust controlled by him) are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Reporting Persons.” Any disclosures herein with respect to persons other than the Reporting Persons are made on information and belief after making inquiry to the appropriate party.

 

The Issuer created a class of Nonvoting Common Stock, approved by stockholders on September 23, 2009, to facilitate compliance with agreements restricting voting power of the Reporting Persons and agreements with certain of the Reporting Persons. References throughout this Schedule 13D Amendment #6 to Common Stock include both Voting Common Stock (the security registered pursuant to Section 12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and Nonvoting Common Stock. In certain circumstances the Reporting Persons have the power to bifurcate warrant exercises into both securities to prevent the Reporting Persons’ voting power from exceeding 70%.

 

This filing amends the Schedule 13D Amendment #5 filed February 14, 2013 to amend Items 3 through 5 as follows:

 

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations.

 

Since the filing of the Reporting Persons’ Schedule 13D Amendment #5 in February 2013, the Reporting Persons acquired and disposed of securities as set forth in Item 5.  The source of funding for such purchases was working capital or personal funds.

 

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

 

Since the Company’s initial public offering in November 2006, the Reporting Persons have been the Company’s controlling stockholder and source of a significant portion of funding. In addition, Mr. Monroe has served as the Company’s Chairman since April 2004 and, except from July 2009 to July 2011, Chief Executive Officer since January 2005.

 

The Reporting Persons considered the Common Stock to be an attractive investment at the price levels at which they acquired the shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons may acquire additional shares of Common Stock in the future.

  

Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals which related to or would result in:

 

(a)   The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the issuer, or the disposition of securities of the issuer;
     
(b)   An extraordinary corporation transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
     
(c)   A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or of any of its subsidiaries;
     
(d)   Any change in the present board of directors or management of the issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
     
(e)   Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the issuer;
     
(f)   Any other material change in the issuer’s business or corporate structure;
     
(g)   Changes in the issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person;
     
(h)   Causing a class of securities of the issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
     
(i)   Causing a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
     
(j)   Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

In the ordinary course of strategic planning for the Company, the Board of Directors and the management team have discussed, and in the future may discuss, some or all of the items listed in (a) through (j) above. Mr. Monroe participates in those discussions as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of Issuer.

 

The calculations of percentages in this Schedule 13D, Amendment 6 are based on the number of shares of Voting Common Stock (864,378,563 shares) outstanding on December 31, 2014, plus the shares that may be issued to the Reporting Persons within 60 days upon the exercise of stock options or warrants and the conversion of shares of Nonvoting Common Stock into Voting Common Stock.
