Press Releases

CHICAGO, Sept. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Gogo Inc. ("Gogo") (NASDAQ:GOGO) announced the commencement of a private offering of $100 million aggregate principal amount of additional 12.500% senior secured notes due 2022 (the "Additional Notes") to be issued by its direct wholly owned subsidiary, Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC (the "Issuer"), and its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Gogo Finance Co. Inc. (the "Co-Issuer" and, together with the Issuer, the "Issuers"). The Issuers' 12.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 were previously issued in an aggregate principal amount of $525 million on June 14, 2016 and in an aggregate principal amount of $65 million on January 3, 2017 (collectively, the "Previously Issued Notes"). The Additional Notes and the Previously Issued Notes will be treated as the same series for all purposes under the indenture and collateral agreements, each as amended and supplemented, that govern the Initial Notes and will govern the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Gogo and all of the existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries of the Issuer (other than the Co-Issuer), subject to certain exceptions (the "Guarantors"). The Additional Notes and the related guarantees will be secured by first priority liens on substantially all of the Issuers' and the Guarantors' assets, including pledged equity interests of the Issuers and the Guarantors. There can be no assurance that the proposed offering of Additional Notes will be completed.

The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Additional Notes to accelerate the commercial rollout of Gogo's next-generation global satellite solution, 2Ku, for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The Additional Notes and the guarantees will be offered in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Additional Notes and the guarantees will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The consummation of the offering of the Additional Notes will be conditioned upon, among other things, satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the previously announced consent solicitation with respect to the Notes, including obtaining the valid and unrevoked consents from holders of Previously Issued Notes as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 13, 2017 holding no less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Previously Issued Notes, excluding Previously Issued Notes held by the Issuers or any affiliates of the Issuers (the "Requisite Consents"), on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 20, 2017, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Issuers, and, if the Requisite Consents are obtained, the execution of a supplemental indenture to the indenture governing the Previously Issued Notes, providing for the proposed amendments to the indenture, including an increase in the amount of additional secured indebtedness that may be incurred by the Issuer and its restricted subsidiaries.

The Additional Notes and the guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.
