Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 21, 2026, Viasat, Inc. (“Viasat”) and ViaSat Technologies Limited, a company organized under the laws of England and a wholly owned subsidiary of Viasat (“VTL”), entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Ex-Im Credit Facility”) by and among VTL, as borrower, Viasat, as guarantor, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as Ex-Im Facility Agent, and the Export-Import Bank of the United States (“Ex-Im Bank”). The Ex-Im Credit Facility provides for a $188.7 million direct loan facility, $175.8 million of which can be used to finance up to 85% of the costs of construction, launch and insurance of the ViaSat-3 F1 satellite and related goods and services (including costs incurred on or after May 1, 2018), with the remainder used to finance the total exposure fees incurred under the Ex-Im Credit Facility of up to $12.9 million. Viasat currently expects that the full borrowing availability under the Ex-Im Credit Facility will be drawn in a single disbursement following satisfaction of the conditions to utilization.

Borrowings under the Ex-Im Credit Facility are required to be repaid in 16 approximately equal semi-annual installments, commencing on May 25, 2026, with a final maturity date of November 25, 2033. Borrowings under the Ex-Im Credit Facility will bear interest at a fixed rate equal to Ex-Im Bank’s published Commercial Interest Reference Rate (“CIRR”) as in effect five business days prior to the first disbursement of funds under the Ex-Im Credit Facility. The current CIRR is 4.63% per annum.

The Ex-Im Facility is guaranteed by Viasat and secured by first priority liens on selected assets of VTL (including the ViaSat-2 satellite and certain associated contracts and insurance) and a pledge of the capital stock in VTL held by Viasat.

The Ex-Im Credit Facility contains financial covenants regarding Viasat’s maximum total leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio. In addition, the Ex-Im Credit Facility contains covenants that restrict, among other things, VTL’s and Viasat’s ability to sell assets, make investments and acquisitions, make capital expenditures, grant liens, pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments. The Ex-Im Credit Facility also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, Ex-Im Bank may declare all outstanding amounts under the Ex-Im Credit Facility immediately due and payable.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and its affiliates have performed, and may in the future perform, for Viasat and its affiliates various commercial banking, investment banking, financial advisory or other services, for which they have received and/or may in the future receive customary compensation and expense reimbursement.

The description of the Ex-Im Credit Facility contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Ex-Im Credit Facility, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information provided in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 21, 2025, the Company repaid early all of the $300.0 million in principal amount of outstanding borrowings under Inmarsat’s original senior secured term loan facility plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Inmarsat’s $1.3 billion senior secured term loan facility entered into in 2024 remains in place.
