EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 (the "Post-Effective Amendment") amends the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-273788) filed by Gogo Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 8, 2023 (together with the Amendment, the "Registration Statement"), with respect to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), issuable pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Prior Plan"). Effective June 4, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the 2024 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "2024 Plan"), which replaces the Prior Plan. Pursuant to the 2024 Plan, the following shares of Common Stock may be issued under the 2024 Plan: (i) 1,740,644 shares of Common Stock that, as of June 4, 2024, remained available for issuance under the Prior Plan; and (ii) to the extent that they are canceled, terminated or otherwise settled without issuance of any stock or expire unexercised, up to 3,654,065 shares of Common Stock underlying non-full-value awards outstanding under the Prior Plan as of June 4, 2024. As a result, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to incorporate the 2024 Plan as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to reflect that up to 5,394,709 shares of Common Stock previously registered for issuance under the Prior Plan have or may become available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
