NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreement contained herein, receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows. To the extent there is any contradiction, inconsistency or ambiguity between the terms of this Amendment No. 3 and the Agreement, Exhibits or previous amendments thereto, this Amendment No. 3 will govern.

For purposes of the quantities referenced in this paragraph, any units currently on order or previously delivered as of the date of this Amendment No.3 shall not be considered. For any purchase order placed under Exhibit A, Revision 1, Gogo shall pay ThinKom: [***]. ThinKom agrees that this Agreement does not create any volume purchase obligations for Gogo and that Gogo is not required to purchase any Product Shipset units hereunder, other than the order for a minimum of 100 2Ku Shipsets pursuant to Paragraph A above. Minimum order size shall remain at [***] units with deliveries spread over no more than [***].

 

  C. Section 11 of Exhibit A-2, Revision 1 (Minimum Order Size and Payment Schedule for Additional Orders) is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

  D. The following is added to the end of Section 22 (Delivery Schedule):

Following ThinKom’s acceptance of a purchase order, and the specified Product unit delivery dates therein or delivery dates as otherwise mutually agreed upon between the Parties, if ThinKom fails to


meet the agreed upon delivery dates for the Product(s), Gogo may in its sole option and discretion, claim a penalty for the delay in delivery of the Product unit(s) equal to [***]of the total value of the late Product unit(s), however, Gogo shall not assess any penalty on shipments made within 10 days of the scheduled date. In no event shall the late penalty exceed [***]. ThinKom shall apply such amount retroactively to the dates set forth in the applicable purchase order and issue a corresponding debit note on any payments made. Gogo and ThinKom agree to establish a monthly review process in which open purchase order due dates are reviewed, ThinKom will provide confirmation of its ability to meet the given dates or request schedule relief, and Gogo will, in good faith, accommodate reschedule requests if such schedule relief does not create an undue burden on Gogo or Gogo’s customer(s).
