Globalstar, Inc. announced the execution of definitive agreements with Telecom Castilla-La Mancha, S.A. ("Telecom CLM") to expand the Alcazar Teleport in Castilla La Mancha, Spain, with additional ground station antennas and associated infrastructure. These further investments will support Globalstar's launch and operation of its previously announced third-generation mobile satellite services network, the C-3 System. With today's announced expansion, Globalstar will effectively double the size of its existing footprint at the Alcazar Teleport by adding three new tracking antennas and supporting infrastructure.

This upgrade strengthens the foundation of Globalstar's Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellation and will support a wide range of next-generation mobile satellite services for hundreds of millions of people across Europe, meeting growing demand for resilient, uninterrupted connectivity. Recent widespread power outages affecting parts of Spain and Portugal highlighted the need for dependable communications alternatives. While terrestrial mobile networks were offline, Globalstar's satellite network remained fully operational, providing uninterrupted service to its users.

Alcazar represents a further step in a significant expansion of Globalstar's ground infrastructure. Reinforcing ground station capabilities in Spain underpins Globalstar's strategic initiative to bring next-generation mobile satellite connectivity to the world.
