Explanation of Responses:

1. These shares were transferred into the Kevin and Andrea Harkenrider Trust dated November 11, 2008.

2. The option becomes exercisable, if at all, based on both time-based vesting (in three increments equal to 33% of the total shares on each of the first three anniversary dates of the grant date) and performance-based vesting (if the average daily closing price of Viasat's common stock over any 45-day period during the three year period following the grant date exceeds certain stock price hurdles of $30.00 or above).
