Item 3.01  Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On September 12, 2011, Globalstar, Inc. received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market informing the company that for the last 30 consecutive business days the bid price of Globalstar’s common stock has closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion under Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). The letter stated that Nasdaq will provide Globalstar a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until March 12, 2012, to regain compliance. To regain compliance, any time before March 12, 2012, the bid price of Globalstar’s common stock must close at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. If Globalstar does not regain compliance with Rule 5450(a)(1) by March 12, 2012, Globalstar will be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period if it meets The Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing criteria except for the bid price requirement. If Globalstar is not eligible for an additional compliance period, Nasdaq will provide it with written notification that its common stock will be delisted. At that time, Globalstar may appeal to the Listings Qualifications Panel Nasdaq’s determination to delist its common stock.
