 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

GOGO INC. 
 3.75%
CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES DUE 2020 
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issuance of Securities of the Company, designated
as its 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Securities”), limited in aggregate principal amount of up to $356,000,000 (as increased by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of any additional Securities purchased
by the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the exercise of their option to purchase additional Securities as set forth in the Purchase Agreement), all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of March 9, 2015 (the
“Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations
of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. Additional Securities may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the
Indenture. 
 In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all
Securities may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the
conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture. In case an Event of Default occurs as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, the principal of all Securities then outstanding shall ipso
facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
 Subject to
the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a
Security to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Security. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the
Securities, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute
supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Securities as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences. 

The Securities are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At
the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Securities may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of other authorized
denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder
of the new Securities issued upon such exchange of Securities being different from the name of the Holder of the old Securities surrendered for such exchange. 

The Securities are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund or otherwise. 

Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for
cash all of such Holder’s Securities or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. 







 Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, prior
the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding December 1, 2019 only upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, and on or after December 1, 2019 until the close of business on the second
Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding March 1, 2020 regardless of the occurrence of such conditions, to convert any of its Securities or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into shares of Common Stock or,
following the Company’s receipt of Shareholder Approval, cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time
to time as provided in the Indenture. 
 All terms used in this Security but not specifically defined herein are defined in the Indenture
and are used herein as so defined. 
 In the case of any conflict between the provisions of this Security and the Indenture, the provisions
of the Indenture shall control. 
 This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the
certificate of authentication on this Security. 
 THE INDENTURE AND THIS SECURITY, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR
RELATED TO THE INDENTURE OR THIS SECURITY, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 The
Company will furnish to any Holder, upon written request and without charge, a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to: Gogo Inc., 1250 N. Arlington Heights Road, Suite 500, Itasca, IL 60143, Attention: Investor Relations.
