Service Will Continue to Improve as Additional Satellites
    Become Operational -- Twelve More Satellites are Planned to
                 Launch Before the End of the Year

COVINGTON, La., Sept. 6, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Globalstar, Inc.
(Nasdaq:GSAT), a leading provider of mobile satellite voice and data
services to businesses, government and consumers, today announced that
it has started processing commercial mobile satellite telephone calls
for customers throughout the United States, Canada, Northern Mexico,
Puerto Rico and the surrounding regions using its new second-generation
satellites. Globalstar voice and duplex data customers in these regions
can expect improved coverage availability and call performance due to
the activation of the Company's six ground stations located throughout
North America.

In March of this year, the International Bureau of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) granted Globalstar conditional
authority to operate its second-generation satellites within the United
States using its North American gateways pending the completion of the
French authorization process for the new satellites. This process was
completed last week.

Globalstar launched six new second-generation satellites in October of
2010 and an additional six satellites in July of 2011. The operational
satellites from these first two launches have previously been providing
improved coverage for Globalstar customers outside of North America and
the surrounding territory.

Last month the Company announced the successful delivery of additional
satellites to Baiknour where they are being prepared for the third
launch of six satellites currently scheduled for early October.
Globalstar plans to complete the first four launches of its new
satellites by the end of this year.

Once the new constellation is launched and fully deployed, the Company
expects to, once again, provide the world's finest quality mobile
satellite voice and fastest mobile satellite handset data services to
commercial, residential and government customers throughout its entire
global coverage area.
