Item 8.01. Other Events.

On September 27, 2012, ViaSat, Inc. issued a press release pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), regarding the pricing of an offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 6.875% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) to be issued through a private placement to qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes are an additional issuance of, and will be treated as a single class with, the $275 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of ViaSat’s 6.875% Senior Notes due 2020. The Notes will have an interest rate of 6.875% per annum and will be issued at a price equal to 103.50% of their face value.

Neither the press release nor this Current Report on Form 8-K constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities. Any offers of the securities will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

In accordance with Rule 135c(d) under the Securities Act, a copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
