New Coverage Region Completes KVH's Seamless Global Network,
    Which Uses Advanced Spread Spectrum Technology to Provide 2
      Mbps Connections to Antennas as Small as 14.5" (37 cm)

MIDDLETOWN, R.I., June 23, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fulfilling its goal
of creating a seamless global maritime VSAT network, KVH Industries,
Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) today announced that coverage for the last
remaining region in KVH's original network plan -- South America -- is
now under contract and scheduled to go live in July 2011 using the
IS-14 satellite. This joint effort by KVH and its partner, ViaSat, Inc.
(Nasdaq:VSAT) will provide mini-VSAT Broadband(SM) service to leisure
mariners, commercial shipping and fishing vessels, and the expanding
South American oil and gas industry, as well as network coverage for
ViaSat's Yonder(R) in-flight broadband network for commercial and
business aircraft.

"The addition of South American coverage completes our global Ku-band
mini-VSAT Broadband network, the groundbreaking satellite communication
solution that brings reliable, affordable satellite communications to
our customers via our TracPhone(R) V-series antennas," says Brent
Bruun, KVH's senior vice president for sales and business development.
"Commercial and leisure marine users worldwide recognize the unique
benefits offered by our combination of high-speed data and voice
service, ultra-small antennas, and global coverage. Already, mini-VSAT
Broadband is the fastest growing maritime VSAT solution as well as an
increasingly popular replacement for older, slower, and more costly
L-band services. We look forward to bringing this same award-winning
service to subscribers working, cruising, and traveling through South
American waters."

"This is also an important expansion of our Yonder mobile service
coverage over South America, including Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru,
Colombia, Venezuela, and surrounding areas," said Don Buchman, ViaSat's
director of mobile broadband. "This one-of-a-kind service has become
mission critical for both aviation and maritime subscribers."

A managed airtime network solution, mini-VSAT Broadband equips vessels
with the highest data rates available today with downloads as fast as 2
Mbps and uploads as fast as 512 Kbps, as well as Voice over IP (VoIP)
telephone lines with optimized service and prioritization of
applications. The network uses ViaSat ArcLight(R) spread spectrum
technology, which was previously available only for military
applications. Multiple airtime plans are available, including simple
metered plans ($0.99 for data and $0.49 per minute for voice services
and packages starting at less than $50 per month) and fixed monthly and
seasonal plans with even lower data and voice costs. These benefits are
available to mariners on any size vessel, for any application, and even
in adverse weather conditions via the award-winning 24" TracPhone V7
and compact, 14.5" TracPhone V3 antennas and the integrated ArcLight
modem.

"With the new satellite capacity on IS-14 servicing South America,
mini-VSAT Broadband seamlessly links 14 transponders on 10 satellites
to provide service around the globe," explains Mr. Bruun. "As a result,
our worldwide network provides a unique coverage model, including more
expansive satellite coverage in the Indian Ocean Region than competing
Ku-band VSAT services along with redundant coverage from multiple
satellites in most regions. In addition, KVH manages the end-to-end
solution, including the satellite network, hubs, operations center, and
onboard equipment. The result is the most reliable maritime VSAT
communications available."
