Exhibit 10.17

December 2, 2010

Mr. R. Nim Evatt

Dear Nim:

This letter agreement (“the Agreement”) outlines the terms regarding your retirement from EMS
Technologies, Inc. (“EMS” or “the Company”).

Full-Time Employment End Date: In consideration of signing this Agreement, which includes a waiver
and release of claims, you and EMS agree that your full time employment will continue until January
1, 2011, at which point your full time employment with EMS will end (“Full-Time Employment End
Date”). Until the Full-Time Employment End Date, you are required to continue to perform your
duties as an EMS employee, including providing a full transition of duties and responsibilities to
the new General Manager of EMS Aviation, and a substantive and complete transfer of knowledge
through meetings and written communications.

Through the Full-Time Employment End Date, you will be employed on a full-time regular basis and
will report to CEO Neil Mackay. In that regard, we will require you to work closely with Neil,
Nils Helle and others to provide (both in writing and orally) the Company with the benefit of the
know-how and other intellectual property of the Company that you possess, such as that retained in
your memory, and that may not be readily available in any tangible form.

Part-Time Services Arrangement: Immediately after the Full-Time Employment End Date, your
employment will convert to part-time regular status with a schedule of 20 hours per week for a
period of 3 months (“the Part-Time Employment Period”). You will be paid at a rate of $2,548.07
weekly, payable as earned during the Part-Time Employment Period. Your employment with EMS will
terminate in its entirety at the conclusion of the Part-Time Employment Period, on March 31, 2011.

Separation Pay: Immediately following the Part-Time Employment Period, provided that you work
through the entire Part-Time Employment Period pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, you will
receive separation pay of $22,222.22 per month from April 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, which
the Company will pay to you in accordance with its regular payroll processes, and which will be
subject to all regular and legally required withholdings.

Group Health Plan Coverage: Your will remain eligible for group health benefits (including
Exec-U-Care) through December 31, 2011, at the standard employee contribution rates. Under federal
law, after your coverage ends you are entitled to continue your medical coverage through COBRA for
a limited additional period. If you elect COBRA coverage, you will be responsible for paying the
applicable premiums. Note that the period between April 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 will run
concurrently with COBRA

Accrued Vacation Pay: Within a reasonable time following the Full-Time Employment End Date, you
will be paid for all accrued but unused vacation pay accrued on a full-time basis per EMS Vacation
Policy through the Full-Time Employment End Date. The final number of hours payable to you is
subject to change to the extent you take vacation time and accrue vacation time from today’s date
through the Full-Time Employment End Date. After the Full-Time Employment End Date, you will
accrue vacation on a pro-rated basis during your employment as a part-time regular basis. You will
not be paid for any accrued but unused vacation at the end of the Part-Time Employment Period.

Incentive Compensation Bonus: You are a participant in the Company’s 2010 incentive compensation
program at an eligibility level of 40% of your base salary. Because your employment will extend on
a part-time regular basis through the date that the 2010 bonuses will be paid, you will have

 

 

Page 2

R. Nim Evatt

December 2, 2010

eligibility in the program for the 2010 year. Your incentive compensation payment under the 2010
program will be determined under the applicable terms of the program. You will not be eligible to
participate in the company’s 2011 Incentive Compensation program.

Special Retention Bonus: You will be due a special Retention Bonus of $75,000 if you are employed
beyond January 9th 2011. Your continued employment on a part-time basis during the
Part-Time Employment Period pursuant to this Agreement will ensure your continued eligibility for
the Special Retention Bonus.

Stock Purchase Plan: If you are a participant in the Stock Purchase Plan, you are entitled to
withdraw your share balance or to have it sold on your behalf. Appropriate forms and details as to
your alternatives may be obtained from Fidelity Investments or Morgan Stanley Smith Barney as
appropriate. All restrictions on the sale of EMS stock will continue under the current blackout
policy and will continue as long as EMS is paying you under the terms of this Agreement.

RSU’s and Stock Options:

     RSU’s — You were awarded 1,500 restricted stock units of common shares of EMS stock (“RSU’s”)
on May 1, 2009. Per the terms of your RSU agreement, 375 shares (25%) vested on May 1, 2010.
There will be no further vesting of RSU’s beyond the termination of your employment on March 31,
2011.

     Stock Options — You were granted 23,000 options in common shares of EMS stock on February 18,
2010 based on a 3-year vesting schedule. Should your employment date go beyond February 18, 2011,
pursuant to this Agreement, 7,666 options would be eligible for vesting per the terms of the
applicable stock option plans.

Return of Assets: All assets of EMS Technologies, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries
(including Formation Inc.) assigned to you or otherwise in your possession must be returned by the
expiration of the Part-Time Employment Period in proper working order.

Termination for Cause: If the Company terminates your employment for “Cause,” at any time before
March 31, 2011, you will be entitled to no further compensation beyond the date of such termination
for “Cause” and you will forfeit all benefits set forth herein

Continuing Obligations: You will maintain and continue to be bound by your existing and continuing
non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disclosure, intellectual property and other obligations
under the Noncompetition Agreement and Non-solicitation Agreement dated January 9, 2009, among you,
EMS and Formation Inc. (“Noncompetition Agreement”); provided, however, that the Noncompetition
Agreement is hereby amended to change the definition of “Restricted Industry” by replacing the word
“Company” with the words “EMS Aviation division of EMS”. You also understand that you will be
required to resign from any office held with EMS and it’s direct and indirect subsidiaries as of
December 1, 2010.

Change of Control: In the event of a change of control of the Company resulting from an
acquisition by any person, corporation or other legal entity of voting stock of the Company, in a
transaction or series of transactions, through which such acquiring entity obtains beneficial
ownership of more than 50% of the

combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting stock (including any such
acquisition by way of a merger, consolidation or reorganization, or series of such related
transactions), the separation pay described above shall become immediately due and payable in a
single lump sum.
