New Relationship Supports KVH's Efforts to Bring Mini-VSAT
    Broadband to Fishing and Oil and Gas Vessels Throughout the
                       South American Region

MIDDLETOWN, R.I., June 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KVH Industries,
Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) the world's leading maritime VSAT provider, today
named Andesat S.A., a leading provider of satellite communications in
the Andean region of South America, a reseller for its mini-VSAT
Broadband(SM) service and TracPhone(R) V-series satellite
communications systems. In addition to managing a mini-VSAT Broadband
hub at their teleport in Santiago, Chile, Andesat will now provide
TracPhone V-series systems and mini-VSAT Broadband service to its
distribution partners in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia,
Peru, and Ecuador.

"KVH is committed to bringing reliable, affordable satellite
communications to commercial mariners in South America, and expanding
our relationship with Andesat will help us to achieve that goal,"
explains Brent C. Bruun, KVH's senior vice president of global sales
and business development. "Andesat is a diverse and well-established
company that will help us reach this customer base effectively. They
will be a tremendous asset in growing our business in South America,
particularly as we combine their presence in the Southern Cone and
Andean region with our existing distribution strategy in Brazil."

"We are excited to build upon our existing relationship with KVH by
becoming a reseller, offering the outstanding mini-VSAT Broadband
service and TracPhone V-series hardware to South American mariners
through our distribution partners," says Pablo Rasore, general manager
at Andesat. "KVH has an outstanding reputation for providing the
service that mariners need with hardware and rates that are realistic
for their budgets, even on smaller vessels. We're looking forward to
leveraging this relationship to help these mariners enhance the way
they do business."

The mini-VSAT Broadband service is unique in that it uses ArcLight(R)
spread spectrum technology developed by KVH's satellite technology
partner, ViaSat (Nasdaq:VSAT). The spread spectrum technology enables
use of antennas as small as 37 cm for the Ku-band service and as small
as 1 meter for the combined C/Ku-band coverage. Although significantly
smaller, these antennas match the coverage and speed of much larger
maritime VSAT antennas using older services based on time division
multiple access (TDMA) technology. With onboard equipment as small and
affordable as L-band systems, the power of fast, affordable VSAT
service is rapidly becoming the preferred option for large segments of
the maritime market that were formerly limited to expensive legacy
satellite communications services.

Since launching the mini-VSAT Broadband service in late 2007, KVH has
fielded one of the world's broadest Ku-band VSAT networks, using 14
Ku-band satellite transponders to provide a seamless web of
multimegabit coverage. The service will soon cover 95% of the Earth,
including all of the oceans bordering southern South America, with the
addition of coverage from three overlayed, global C-band transponders
and a unique dual-mode TracPhone system that seamlessly switches
between C- and Ku-band frequencies. In most regions, vessels enjoy
redundant coverage to assure robust connectivity.

KVH is the only maritime VSAT provider to manufacture its own fully
integrated onboard terminal and network manager, operate a global
C/Ku-band VSAT network, and provide worldwide 24/7/365 after-sale
support. The ability to control every aspect of its equipment and
network has enabled KVH to field the world's premier global maritime
VSAT network. In March 2012, the marketing research firm Euroconsult
reported KVH leads the maritime VSAT market for number of customers
using its service.
