REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.2

Execution Version

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

This Registration Rights Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of November 5, 2013, by and among RigNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Digital Investments LP (formerly known as, Dynamo Investment Partners L.P.), an exempted limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Holder”).

The Holder is party to a Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 14, 2013, by and between Energy Growth Holding AS, Energy Growth AS, Cubera Secondary KS, KKR European Fund III, Limited Partnership and the Holder, as amended on September 18, 2013 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Holder acquired 4,049,691 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and warrants to purchase 700,309 shares of the Common Stock (the “Warrants”), which Warrants were subsequently exercised on September 24, 2013 to acquire the underlying 700,309 shares of Common Stock.

Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in paragraph 10 of this Agreement.

The parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Demand Registrations.

a. Requests for Registration. Subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement, at any time after the date of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter until the termination of this Agreement, the Holder may request, and the Company shall effect, a registration under the Securities Act of all or part of its Registrable Securities. All registrations requested pursuant to this paragraph 1(a) are referred to in this Agreement as “Demand Registrations”. Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten (10) business days after receipt of any such request, the Company will give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of the Company’s securities who are entitled by virtue of the Other Agreement to include such securities in the Demand Registration (the “Other Stockholders”) and, except as provided in paragraph 1(c) below, will include in such registration all such securities of such Other Stockholders with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) business days after the receipt of the Company’s notice by the Other Stockholders.

b. Number and Size of Requests. The Holder is entitled to request an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations on Form S-l or any similar long form registration statement and unlimited Demand Registrations on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement; provided, however, no demand shall be made for a Demand Registration on Form S-l if the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement for such Demand Registration. No Demand Registration on Form S-1 shall be requested for less than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) worth of Registrable Securities. No Demand Registration on Form S-3 shall be requested for less than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) worth of Registrable Securities.

c. Priority on Demand Registrations. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company and the Holder that, in such underwriter’s opinion, the aggregate number of securities requested to be included in such offering by the Holder together with securities required to be included by the Company pursuant to requests of the Other Stockholders pursuant to the Other Agreement exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Holder and a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the Other Agreement and referred to herein as the “Other Registrable Securities”) requesting registration under the Other Agreement, then the Company will include in such registration, prior to the inclusion of any other securities, the maximum number of Registrable Securities requested to be included by the Holder together with securities of the Other Stockholders required to be included, which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the Holder and the respective Other Stockholders on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Securities owned by the Holder and the number of securities owned by the Other Stockholders eligible for inclusion in the Demand Registration pursuant to the Other Agreement on a fully diluted basis outstanding immediately prior to such registration.

d. Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Company will not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration (i) within twelve (12) months after the effective date of any Demand Registration, (ii) during any period in which the Company is in the process of negotiating or preparing, and ending on a date ninety (90) days following the effective date of, a registration statement pertaining to an underwritten public offering of securities for the account of the Company or (iii) during any period in which the Company is in possession of material information concerning the Company or its business and affairs, the public disclosure of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company. In any given twelve (12) month period, the Company may effect one (1) postponement for up to one hundred eighty (180) days of the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration if, in the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors, such Demand Registration or offering of securities would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any plan of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any material acquisition of assets outside the ordinary course of business, any material merger, consolidation, or tender offer, or any other transaction; provided, however, that in such event, the Holder will be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Demand Registration will not count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations, and the Company will pay all registration expenses in connection with such registration.

e. Effective Registration Statement. A Demand Registration shall not be presumed to have been requested if a registration statement with respect thereto shall not have become effective (unless such Demand Registration has not become effective due solely to the refusal of the Holder to proceed with the registration, provided such refusal is not due to the advice of its counsel that the registration statement, or the prospectus contained therein, or other documents incorporated by reference therein, contain or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a statement of material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing), regardless of whether any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to such registration.

2. Piggyback Registrations.

a. Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (whether such registration is a primary registration on behalf of the Company or a secondary registration on behalf of any other person holding any of the Company’s securities) other than a Demand Registration and the registration form to be used is anything other than Forms S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms (a “Piggyback Registration”), or in connection with mergers, acquisitions or exchange offers, the Company will give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention to effect such a registration and the estimated price range of such offering and, except as provided in paragraph 2(b) below, will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) business days after the Holder’s receipt of the Company’s notice.

b. Priority on Piggyback Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten registration and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their opinion the number of securities requested by the Holder to be included in any Piggyback Registration causes the aggregate number of securities to be sold in such Piggyback Registration to exceed the number of securities which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, (ii) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Holder and the Other Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Other Stockholders which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the Holder and the Other Stockholders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by the Holder and each such Other Stockholder on a fully diluted basis immediately prior to such registration and (iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration, which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range.

3. Registration Procedures. Whenever the Holder has requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will use reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof. Pursuant to such registration, the Company will:

a. as soon as practicable, but in any event within ninety (90) days of a request for registration of Registrable Securities, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective (provided that, before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, if requested, the Company will furnish to the counsel of the Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review and reasonable comment of such counsel with respect to any disclosure pertaining to such Holder);

3

b. as soon as practicable, prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of either (i) one hundred twenty (120) days (subject to extension pursuant to the last paragraph of this paragraph 3) or, if such registration statement relates to an underwritten offering, such period as in the opinion of counsel for the underwriters a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer, or (ii) such shorter period as will terminate when all of the securities covered by such registration statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement (but in any event not before the expiration of any longer period required under the Securities Act), and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

c. furnish to the Holder such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act such other documents as the Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities;

d. if required, use its reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Holder or underwriter reasonably requests and (ii) do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller (provided, however, that the Company will not be required to (x) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (y) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (z) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

e. notify the Holder at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, is the subject of any stop order, or is otherwise not in compliance with the Securities Act or other applicable laws and, at the request of any underwriter or any such seller, prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

f. cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed and, if not so listed, to use reasonable efforts to be quoted on the NASDAQ national market automated quotation system;

4

g. enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the Holder may reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

h. make available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any underwriter, all relevant financial and other records, corporate documents and properties of the Company, and use reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

j. otherwise use its reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission; and

The Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in subparagraph (e) above, the Holder will forthwith discontinue its distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Registrable Securities until its receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subparagraph (e) above. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the applicable time period mentioned in subparagraph (b) above during which a Registration Statement is to remain effective shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to subparagraph (e) above, to and including the date when each seller of a Registrable Security covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subparagraph (e) above.

4. Rights Granted to Third Persons. Notwithstanding any other rights granted to the Holder hereunder, in the event that the Company shall after the date of this Agreement grant rights and benefits to register any of its securities to any other person (including, without limitation, the Other Stockholders) which are similar to, greater than, or more favorable to the interests of others when compared to those rights granted to the Holder hereunder (whether by amendment of the Other Agreement or otherwise), the Holder shall be entitled to exercise rights similar to those granted to such persons and this Agreement shall be amended ipso facto to the fullest extent necessary to grant such similar, greater or more favorable rights and benefits to the Holder; provided, however, that this Section 4 shall not apply to any rights granted under the Other Agreement as such agreement is in effect on the date of this Agreement.

5. Registration Expenses.

a. Expenses Paid by the Company. All expenses incident to any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration effected pursuant to this Agreement and the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Company, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, duplicating and printing expenses, road show expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and

5

all independent public accountants, underwriters (excluding discounts and commissions with respect to Registrable Securities) and other persons retained by the Company. In addition, in connection with any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration, the Company will bear the Company’s internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, the expense of any liability insurance and the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted on the NASDAQ national market automated quotation system. In connection with each Demand Registration, the Company will reimburse the Holder for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel chosen by the Holder; provided, however, that if any Other Registrable Securities are also included in such Demand Registration, the Company will only pay for one counsel mutually agreed by Holder and the holders of the Other Registrable Securities.

b. Expenses Paid by the Holder. The Holder will pay any underwriters’ discount or commission and registration fees applicable to the Registrable Securities, and any other expenses incurred by the Holder which are not borne by the Company as provided above.

6. Indemnification.

a. Indemnification by the Company. In connection with the sale or transfer of any Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder along with its officers, managers, partners, owners and directors, each other person who participates as an underwriter in the offering for sale of such Registrable Securities and each person who controls such person or underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses caused by any third party claim relating to any failure or alleged failure of compliance with the Securities Act or other applicable laws, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will reimburse the Holder, and each such officer, director, manager, partner, owner, underwriter and controlling person for reasonable legal or any other expenses incurred by them in connection with defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding, except insofar as the same arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to the Company by the Holder specifically for use in the preparation thereof which information contained any untrue statement of any material fact or omitted to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and provided that the Company shall not be liable to any person who is authorized to distribute the final prospectus in any such registration or any other person who controls such person within the meaning of the Securities Act, in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of such person’s failure to send or give a copy of the final prospectus, as the same may be then

6

supplemented or amended, to the person asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the securities to such person if such statement or omission was corrected in such final prospectus.

b. Indemnification by the Holder of Registrable Securities. In connection with any registration statement in which the Holder is participating, the Holder will furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding the Holder and, if such registration is not an underwritten registration, such information regarding the distribution of such securities, as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus. If such registration statement or prospectus or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto contains any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by the Holder, or if such information or affidavit omits or allegedly omits a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, the Holder, to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from such untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or omission; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify will be individual to the Holder and not joint or joint and several with any other seller or prospective seller of securities and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by the Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.

c. Defense of Claims. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and, (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding provisions of this paragraph 7, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without the indemnifying party’s consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

d. Survival; Contribution. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, manager, partner, owner or controlling person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of securities and the termination of this Agreement. The Company also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party, for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s indemnification is unavailable or limited for any reason.

e. Registration and Qualification under Other Securities Laws. Indemnification similar to that specified above in this paragraph 7 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Holder with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any Federal or state law or regulation of any governmental authority, other than the Securities Act.

7

f. Advancement of Expenses. Upon the prior express approval of the indemnifying party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, the indemnification required by this paragraph 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, subject to refund if it is determined the party incurring such expenses is not entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement.

7. Underwritten Registrations.

a. Demand Underwritten Registrations. If the proposed sale by the Holder is an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Company will enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriters for such offering. Such agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the Holder, a majority of the Other Registrable Securities requesting registration under the Other Agreement, and the underwriters and shall contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of this type, including, without limitation, indemnities substantially as provided in paragraph 7.

b. Demand or Piggyback Underwritten Registrations. The Holder shall be a party to the Company’s underwriting agreement. No underwriting agreement (or other agreement in connection with such offering) shall require the Holder to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding the Holder, the Registrable Securities, the Holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law or that are reasonably requested by the underwriter.

c. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such person agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the person or persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements at the price approved by such person or persons.

8. Preparation; Reasonable Investigation. In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will give each Holder of Registrable Securities registered under such registration statement, their underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel the reasonable opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the Commission, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and will give any such underwriters and their counsel such access to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of such underwriters’ counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.
