Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act), this
registration statement shall also cover any additional shares of common stock which become
issuable under the above-named plan by reason of any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or any other similar transaction effected without the receipt of
consideration which results in an increase in the number of outstanding shares of our common
stock. |
|
(2) |
|
Covers 750,000 additional shares of our common stock available for issuance under the ViaSat,
Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Purchase Plan) pursuant to an amendment to the
Purchase Plan approved by our board of directors and effective July 1, 2009. The Purchase
Plan authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 2,250,000 shares of common stock. However, the
offer and sale of 1,500,000 shares of common stock, which have been or may be issued under the
Purchase Plan, have previously been registered pursuant to prior Form S-8 registration
statements (Commission File Nos. 333-21113, 333-40396 and 333-131382). |
|
(3) |
|
The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share has been estimated in accordance with Rules
457(c) and (h) under the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration
fee. The computation is based upon 85% (see explanation in following sentence) of the average
of the high and low prices of ViaSat, Inc. common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global
Select Market on June 24, 2009. Pursuant to the Purchase Plan, which plan is incorporated by
reference herein, the purchase price of a share of common stock shall mean an amount equal to
85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the first or last day of an
offering period, whichever is lower. |
Proposed sales to take place as soon after the effective date of the registration statement
as awards granted under the above-named plan are granted, exercised and/or distributed.
