Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On March 25, 2010, ViaSat, Inc. (“ViaSat”) and certain stockholders of ViaSat (the “Selling Stockholders”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, as representatives of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), related to a public offering (the “Offering”) by ViaSat of 2,727,273 shares of ViaSat’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and by the Selling Stockholders of 3,272,727 shares of Common Stock, at a public offering price of $33.50 per share. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have exercised their option to purchase from ViaSat and the Selling Stockholders an additional 446,689 and 453,311 shares, respectively, to cover over-allotments. The Offering is expected to close on March 31, 2010, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The net proceeds to ViaSat are expected to be approximately $100.5 million after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses, including the proceeds from the exercise of the Underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of common stock.
     The Offering is being made pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated March 25, 2010, an accompanying prospectus dated March 22, 2010 and ViaSat’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-165606) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 2010.
     The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by ViaSat and the Selling Stockholders, customary conditions to closing, and indemnification obligations of ViaSat, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, among other obligations of the parties.
