Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 9, 2024, the Board of Directors of Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (the “Company”) approved a new form of indemnification agreement (the “Indemnification Agreement”).  The Company is entering into an Indemnification Agreement with each of its current directors and certain officers, and expects to use such form with future directors and officers (each, an “Indemnitee”). Under the terms of the Indemnification Agreement, the Company is required to indemnify each Indemnitee against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of specified proceedings to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the state of Delaware, if the basis of the Indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was a director or officer or a director or officer of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or was serving at the Company’s request in an official capacity for another entity. The Indemnification Agreement provides for the advancement of expenses and also sets forth certain procedures, as well as qualifications and limitations, that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder. Each Indemnification Agreement with an Indemnitee will supersede and replace the previously adopted form of indemnification agreement which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on March 8, 2007.

The foregoing summary of the provisions of the Indemnification Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full and complete text of the Indemnification Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
