Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Gogo Inc. on March 10, 2016 to correct the description of the Agreement (as defined below).
Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On March 6, 2016, Gogo LLC (Gogo), a wholly owned subsidiary of Gogo Inc. (the Company), and Intelsat Corporation (Intelsat) entered into an agreement for capacity on several current and future satellites that will be part of Intelsats global network (the Agreement). Pursuant to the Agreement, Intelsat will provide, and Gogo will purchase, Ku-band satellite capacity for use with Gogos 2Ku and Ku in-flight connectivity systems. Gogo has contracted for widebeam and spotbeam capacity providing coverage over Africa, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and portions of the Carribbean, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. In addition, Gogo agreed to purchase from Intelsat capacity on the OneWeb satellite constellation, a low earth orbit satellite constellation expected to be in service in 2019, subject to certain conditions and availability.
The Intelsat satellite capacity will initially include use of traditional wide beam services on specified satellites as well as spot beam services on specified high throughput satellites that are expected to enter service beginning in 2016. The Agreement sets out monthly fees for the Intelsat satellite service capacity and provides that prices for the OneWeb capacity will be negotiated by the parties. Under the Agreement, Gogos obligations to purchase Intelsat satellite capacity expire December 31, 2023, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Agreement. The specifications, service level agreements and other details of the Intelsat and OneWeb services will be set forth in statements of work or separate agreements to be agreed upon by the parties.
The description of the Agreement contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement that will be filed as an exhibit to the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2016.
