2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and investments in variable interest entities in which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The portions of majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company does not own are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Investments
Investments in entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but does not have a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company considers several factors in determining whether it has the ability to exercise significant influence with respect to investments, including, but not limited to, direct and indirect ownership level in the voting securities, active participation on the board of directors, approval of operating and budgeting decisions and other participatory and protective rights. Under the equity method, the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of such investee is reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations. When the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, the investment is accounted for under the cost method.
Although the Company owns interests in companies that it accounts for pursuant to the equity method, the investments in those entities had no carrying value as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company has no guarantees or other funding obligations to those entities. The Company had no equity in or losses of those investees for the three months March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Acquisition-rela
ted and Integration Costs
Acquisition-related and integration costs are expensed as incurred and are presented separately on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. These costs may include professional services expenses and identifiable integration costs directly relating to acquisitions.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company has no financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur the Company is required to evaluate its non-financial assets for impairment and any resulting asset impairment would require that a non-financial asset be recorded at the fair value. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement Disclosure,” prioritizes inputs used in measuring fair value into a hierarchy of three levels: Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets; Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value due to the short-term nature of these items. As of March 31, 2017, the carrying value of the Secured Credit Facilities, as defined below, approximated its fair value as the debt is at variable interest rates. The fair value of the Note payable-related party is deminimus.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s customers are primarily commercial organizations. Accounts receivable are generally unsecured.
Accounts receivable are due in accordance with payment terms included in contracts negotiated with customers. Amounts due from customers are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts are past due, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligations to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes-off accounts receivable when they are deemed uncollectible.
There were no customers with revenues greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
There were no customers who comprised greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of March 31, 2017. One customer, Caterpillar, Inc., comprised 10.5% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016.
As of March 31, 2017, the Company did not maintain in-orbit insurance coverage for its ORBCOMM Generation 1 (“OG1”) or ORBCOMM Generation 2 (“OG2”) satellites to address the risk of potential systemic anomalies, failures or catastrophic events affecting its satellite constellation.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, determined on a first-in, first-out basis. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, inventory consisted primarily of finished goods and purchased parts to be utilized by its contract manufacturer totaling $18,030 and $14,531, respectively, and $5,371 and $8,686, respectively, of raw materials, net of inventory obsolescence. The Company reviews inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizability of inventories and adjusts the carrying value as necessary based on forecasted product demand. A provision, recorded in cost of product sales on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations, is made for potential losses on slow moving and obsolete inventories when identified.
Valuation of Long-lived Assets
Property and equipment and other long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company measures recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to the projected cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that carrying value exceeds fair value.
9
The Company’s
satellite constellation and related a
ssets are evaluated as a single asset group whenever facts or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment are identified, recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing their carrying amo
unt to the projected cash flows the assets are expected to generate.
Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including the allocation of cash flows to assets or asset groups and, if required, an estimate of fair value for those assets or asset groups.
If a satellite were to fail while in-orbit, the resulting loss would be charged to expense in the period it is determined that the satellite is not recoverable.
Warranty Costs
The Company accrues for one-year warranty coverage on product sales estimated at the time of sale based on historical costs to repair or replace products for customers compared to historical product revenues. The warranty accrual is included in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Refer to “Note 8 – Accrued Liabilities” for more information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. As a result, the new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Early adoption prior to the original effective date is not permitted.
The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and apply the modified retrospective method.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, if any, and will continue to provide updates during 2017.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, if any.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”) and is effective beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. ASU 2017-04 removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The adoption of this standard, which will be applied prospectively, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
3. Acquisitions
Skygistics Ltd.
On May 26, 2016, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into on April 11, 2016 among a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Skygistics Propriety Limited and Satconnect Propriety Limited (the “Skygistics Sellers”), the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Skygistics (PTY) Ltd. (“Skygistics”) for a purchase price of $3,835 and additional contingent consideration of up to $954, subject to certain operational milestones (the “Skygistics Acquisition”).
Contingent Consideration
Additional consideration is conditionally due to the Skygistics Sellers upon achievement of certain financial milestones through April 2017. The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation is determined using Level 3 unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity based on the Company’s own assumptions. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on the Company’s preliminary estimates using the probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach. The financial milestone for this additional consideration are not expected to be met, and therefore, the Company recorded a reduction of the contingent liability of $519 in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Euroscan Holding B.V.
On March 11, 2014, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company and MWL Management B.V., R.Q. Management B.V., WBB GmbH, ING Corporate Investments Participaties B.V. and Euroscan Holding B.V., as sellers (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding equity of Euroscan Holding B.V., including, indirectly, its wholly-owned subsidiaries Euroscan B.V., Euroscan GmbH Vertrieb Technischer Geräte, Euroscan Technology Ltd. and Ameriscan, Inc. (collectively, the “Euroscan Group” or “Euroscan”) for an aggregate consideration of (i) $29,163, inclusive of net working capital adjustments and net cash (on a debt free, cash free basis); (ii) issuance of 291,230 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $7.70 per share, which reflected the Company’s closing price on the acquisition date; and (iii) additional contingent considerations of up to $6,547 (the “Euroscan Acquisition”). The Euroscan Acquisition allowed the Company to complement its North American operations in IoT by adding a significant distribution channel in Europe and other key geographies where Euroscan has market share.
Contingent Consideration
Additional consideration is conditionally due to MWL Management B.V. and R.Q. Management B.V. upon achievement of financial and operational milestones through March 2017. The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation is determined using Level 3 unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity based on our own assumptions. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on the Company’s preliminary estimates using the probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company recorded $680 and $655, respectively, in accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in connection with the contingent consideration. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, an expense of $25 and $88 were recorded in SG&A in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for accretion associated with the contingent consideration.
4. Stock-based Compensation
On April 20, 2016, the stockholders of the Company approved the ORBCOMM Inc. 2016 Long-Term Incentives Plan (the “2016 LTIP”). The 2016 LTIP replaces the Company’s 2006 Long-Term Incentives Plan (the “2006 LTIP”). The number of shares authorized for delivery under the 2016 LTIP is 6,949,400 shares, including 1,949,400 shares that remained available under the 2006 LTIP as of February 17, 2016, plus any shares previously subject to awards under the 2006 LTIP that are cancelled, forfeited or lapse unexercised since that date. As of March 31, 2017, there were 7,115,859 shares available for grant under the 2016 LTIP.
Total stock-based compensation recorded by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $1,524 and $1,386, respectively. Total capitalized stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $131 and $66, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31 2016, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2 relating to these SARs. As of March 31, 2017, there is no unrecognized compensation cost related to these SARs expected to be recognized.
The intrinsic value of the performance-based SARs exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $41.
12
The fair value of each time-based and performance-based SAR award is estimated on the date o
f grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions described below. For the periods indicated, the expected volatility was based on the Company’s historical volatility over the expected terms of the SAR awards. Estimated forfeitures
were based on voluntary and involuntary termination behavior, as well as analysis of actual forfeitures. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of the grant over the expected term of the SAR grants. The Company d
id not grant time-based or performance-based SARs during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, $1,470 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to these RSUs is expected to be recognized through March 2018.
The fair values of the time-based and performance-based RSU awards are based upon the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Performance Units
The Company grants market performance units (“MPUs”) to its senior executives based on stock price performance over a three-year period measured on December 31 of each year in the performance period. The MPUs will vest at the end of each year in the performance period only if the Company satisfies the stock price performance targets and continued employment by the senior executives through the dates the Compensation Committee has determined that the targets have been achieved. The value of the MPUs that will be earned each year ranges up to 15% of each of the senior executives’ annual base salaries depending on the Company’s stock price performance target for that year. The value of the MPUs can be paid in either cash or common stock or a combination of cash and stock at the Company’s option. The MPUs are classified as a liability and are revalued at the end of each reporting period based on the fair value of the awards over a three-year period.
As the MPUs contain both a performance and service condition, the MPUs have been treated as a series of three separate awards, or tranches, for purposes of recognizing stock-based compensation expense. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a tranche-by-tranche basis over the requisite service period for that specific tranche. The Company estimated the fair value of the MPUs using a Monte Carlo Simulation Model that used the following assumptions:

5. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. Common Stockholde
rs
The Company accounts for earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and related guidance, which requires two calculations of EPS to be disclosed: basic and diluted. The numerator in calculating basic and diluted EPS is an amount equal to the net income (loss) attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. common stockholders for the periods presented. The denominator in calculating basic EPS is the weighted-average shares outstanding for the respective periods. The denominator in calculating diluted EPS is the weighted-average shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of unvested SAR and RSU grants and shares of Series A convertible preferred stock for the respective periods. The following sets forth the basic and diluted calculations of EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

10. Note Payable-Related Party
In connection with the acquisition of a majority interest in Satcom International Group plc. in 2005, the Company recorded an indebtedness to OHB Technology A.G. (formerly known as OHB Teledata A.G.), a stockholder of the Company. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the principal balance of the note payable was €1,138 and it had a carrying value of $1,218 and $1,195, respectively. The carrying value was based on the note’s estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. The difference between the carrying value and principal balance was being amortized to interest expense over the estimated life of the note of six years which ended in September 30, 2011. This note does not bear interest and has no fixed repayment term. Repayment will be made from the distribution profits, as defined in the note agreement, of ORBCOMM Europe LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The note has been classified as long-term and the Company does not expect any repayments to be required prior to March 31, 2018.
11. Note Payable
Secured Credit Facilities
On September 30, 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Macquarie CAF LLC (“Macquarie” or the “Lender”) in order to refinance the Company’s $45,000 9.5% per annum Senior Notes (“Senior Notes”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lender provided secured credit facilities (the “Secured Credit Facilities”) in an aggregate amount of $160,000 comprised of (i) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $70,000 (the “Initial Term Loan Facility”); (ii) a $10,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”); (iii) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000 (the “Term B2 Facility”), the proceeds of which were drawn and used on January 16, 2015 to partially finance the InSync Acquisition; and (iv) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $70,000 (the “Term B3 Facility”), the proceeds of which were drawn on December 30, 2014 and used on January 1, 2015 to partially finance the SkyWave Acquisition. Proceeds of the Initial Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility were funded on October 10, 2014 and were used to repay in full the Company’s Senior Notes and pay certain related fees, expenses and accrued interest, as well as for general corporate purposes.
The Secured Credit Facilities mature five years after the initial fund date of the Initial Term Loan Facility (the “Maturity Date”), but are subject to mandatory prepayments in certain circumstances. The Secured Credit Facilities bear interest, at the Company’s election, of a per annum rate equal to either (a) a base rate plus 3.75% or (b) LIBOR plus 4.75%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%.
The Secured Credit Facilities will be secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets. Subject to the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company may make optional prepayments on the Secured Credit Facilities at any time prior to the Maturity Date. The remaining principal balance is due on the Maturity Date.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to funding, covenants and events of default. The covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement include, among other things, prohibitions on the Company and its subsidiaries against incurring certain indebtedness and investments (other than permitted acquisitions and other exceptions as specified therein), providing certain guarantees and incurring certain liens. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes a leverage ratio and consolidated liquidity covenant, whereby the Company is permitted to have a maximum consolidated leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of up to 5.00 to 1.00 and a minimum consolidated liquidity of $7,500 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. The Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default, the occurrence of which could result in the acceleration of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.
In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, and the subsequent funding of the Initial Term Loan Facility, Revolving Credit Facility, Term B2 Facility and the Term B3 Facility, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $4,481. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, amortization of the debt issuance costs was $229 and $227, respectively. The Company recorded charges of $2,426 to interest expense on its statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017, related to interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Initial Term Loan Facility, the Term B2 and the Term B3 Facilities.
At March 31, 2017, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The net availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $10,000 as of March 31, 2017.
As of March 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

14. Income taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s income tax expense was $623, compared to $162 for the prior year period. The change in the income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily related to a change in the geographical mix of income which increased taxable non-U.S. earnings before income taxes when compared to the prior year period.
As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets primarily attributable to operations in the United States, as the realization of such assets was not considered more likely than not.
There were no changes to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The Company does not expect any significant changes to its unrecognized tax positions during the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2017.
15. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
ORBCOMM v. CalAmp Corp
.
On April 7, 2016, the Company filed a complaint against defendant CalAmp Corp. (“CalAmp”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia alleging infringement of five patents, seeking compensatory damages, treble damages, and an injunction.
On May 27, 2016, CalAmp filed a motion to dismiss the Company’s claims on the basis, inter alia, that the Company’s patents are directed at ineligible subject matter and are therefore invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101. On July 22, 2016, the court denied CalAmp’s motion; however, CalAmp filed a motion for reconsideration of its motion to dismiss. On October 19, 2016, the court denied
19
CalAmp’s motion for reconsideration with respect to four of the five patent in suits and granted CalAmp’s motion to invalidate one of the Company’s pat
ents in-suit as an unpatentable abstract idea.
On July 18, 2016, CalAmp filed its answer to the Company’s complaint and counterclaim for (1) declaratory judgment of unenforceability of ORBCOMM’s patents in-suit; (2) inequitable conduct related to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office action to correct one of the patents in-suit; and (3) an award of legal fees to CalAmp.
On January 25, 2017, the court ruled on the disputed claim construction issues with respect to the remaining patent in-suit, in which it ruled that the claim term “wireless network” is limited to wireless pager networks. While this claim construction resulted in a stipulation of non-infringement, the Company believes this claim construction to be incorrect and, prior to the global settlement described below, was in the process of filing an appeal which would have requested that this claim construction ruling be reviewed on a de novo basis.
Each of the Company and CalAmp filed motions for summary judgment with respect to CalAmp’s counterclaim for inequitable conduct related to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office action to correct the one remaining patent-in-suit. CalAmp’s motion requested summary judgment finding inequitable conduct rendering the patent unenforceable and providing a basis to seek an award of its legal fees. The Company’s motion requested summary judgment to dismiss such counterclaim.
CalAmp Wireless Networks Corporation v. ORBCOMM Inc

On October 26, 2016, a patent infringement lawsuit was filed against the Company by CalAmp Wireless Networks Corporation (“CalAmp Wireless”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. CalAmp Wireless alleged that certain of the Company’s modems, devices and geofencing systems for tracking and monitoring vehicles, machinery, and other assets infringe on two patents asserted by CalAmp Wireless. CalAmp Wireless did not make a specific damages claim, but sought compensatory damages, treble damages, and equitable relief.
On February 9, 2017, the court invalidated the majority of the claims in one of the two patents in-suit brought by CalAmp Wireless.
On April 24, 2017, the Company and CalAmp Wireless entered into a Confidential Settlement, General Release, and License Agreement (the “CalAmp Settlement Agreement”). The CalAmp Settlement Agreement resolves both pending litigation matters between the parties and provides that each of the Company and CalAmp Wireless grant the other royalty free licenses and covenants not to sue for the patents-in-suit described above, as well as general releases. Neither party made a settlement payment to the other party. Each of the Company and CalAmp will bear its own costs and fees associated with the prior litigation.
In addition to the foregoing matters, from time to time, the Company is involved in various litigation claims or matters involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to its business. While the outcome of any such claims or litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management currently believes that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.
OG2 Satellite Insurance
In April 2014, the Company obtained launch and one year from launch in-orbit insurance for the OG2 satellite program. For the first launch of six satellites, the Company obtained (i) a maximum total of $66,000 of launch plus one year in-orbit insurance coverage; and (ii) $22,000 of launch vehicle flight only insurance coverage (“Launch One”). The total premium cost for Launch One was $9,953. For the second launch of 11 satellites, the Company obtained (i) a maximum total of $120,000 of launch plus one year in-orbit insurance coverage; and (ii) $22,000 of launch vehicle flight only insurance coverage (“Launch Two”). The total premium cost for Launch Two was $16,454. In April 2014, the Company paid the total premium for Launch One and 5% of the total premium for Launch Two, with the balance of the premium cost for Launch Two paid in December 2015. The majority of the premium payments are recorded as satellite network and other equipment, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The policy had a three satellite deductible across both missions under the launch plus one-year insurance coverage whereby claims are payable in excess of the first three satellites in the aggregate for both Launch One and Launch Two combined that are total losses or constructive total losses during the one-year policy period. The policy is also subject to specified exclusions and material change limitations customary in the industry. These exclusions include losses resulting from war, anti-satellite devices, insurrection, terrorist acts, government confiscation, radioactive contamination, electromagnetic interference, loss of revenue and third party liability.
On July 14, 2015, the Company obtained an additional one year in-orbit insurance for the five Launch One OG2 satellites for a maximum total of $40,000. The additional in-orbit coverage took effect on July 15, 2015, following the end of the coverage period for the initial launch and one year in-orbit insurance for Launch One. This additional policy contains a one satellite deductible across the

s whereby claims are payable in excess of the first satellite that is a total loss or constructive total loss. The policy is also subject to a specific exclusion for losses that have resulted from an anomaly with the same signatures as the initial OG2 sate
llite loss. There are other specified exclusions and material change limitations customary in the industry which include losses resulting from war, antisatellite devices, insurrection, terrorist acts, government confiscation, radioactive contamination, ele
ctromagnetic interference, loss of revenue and third party liability. On July 15, 2016, the Company extended the in-orbit insurance policy for the five Launch One OG2 satellites through December 21, 2016, under the same terms, for an additional premium of
$179.
The Company did not renew this insurance policy after its expiration on December 21, 2016.
Airtime credits
In 2001, in connection with the organization of ORBCOMM Europe and the reorganization of the ORBCOMM business in Europe, the Company agreed to grant certain country representatives in Europe approximately $3,736 in airtime credits. The Company has not recorded the airtime credits as a liability for the following reasons: (i) the Company has no obligation to pay the unused airtime credits if they are not utilized; and (ii) the airtime credits are earned by the country representatives only when the Company generates revenue from the country representatives. The airtime credits have no expiration date. Accordingly, the Company is recording airtime credits as services are rendered and these airtime credits are recorded net of revenues from the country representatives. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, airtime credits used totaled approximately $7 and $7, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, unused credits granted by the Company were approximately $2,002 and $2,031, respectively.
16. Subsequent Events
On April 10, 2017, the Company issued $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.0% senior secured notes due 2024 (the “Senior Secured Notes”).
The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 10, 2017, among the Company, certain of its domestic subsidiaries party thereto (the “Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Indenture”). The Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors, and are secured on a first priority basis by (i) pledges of capital stock of certain of the Company’s directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of the other property and assets of the Company and the Guarantors, to the extent a first priority security interest is able to be granted or perfected therein, and subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Interest payments are due on the Senior Secured Notes semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 beginning October 1, 2017.
The Company will have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. The Company will also have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time before April 1, 2020 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.
In addition, at any time before April 1, 2020, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, with the proceeds from certain equity issuances.
The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various exceptions and baskets as set forth in the Indenture, including the incurrence by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries of indebtedness under potential new credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50,000.
Upon certain change of control events, holders of the Senior Secured Notes will have the right to require the Company to make an offer to purchase each holder’s Senior Secured Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.

Termination of
Secured Credit Facilities
On April 10, 2017, a portion of the proceeds of the Senior Secured Notes was used to repay in full the Company’s outstanding obligations under, and to terminate the Company’s existing $150,000 outstanding credit facilities incurred pursuant to, the Credit Agreement, resulting in an early termination penalty of $1,500 and an additional expense associated with the remaining unamortized debt issuance cost, all of which will be reflected in the second quarter of 2017.
