(c) Disclosure. Executive shall inform the Company promptly and fully of all Inventions by a written report, setting forth in
detail a description of the Invention, the procedures used and the results achieved. Executive shall submit a report upon completing any studies or research projects undertaken on the Company’s behalf, whether or not Executive believes that

at a reasonable rate for the time actually spent by Executive at the Company’s request in satisfying such obligation. 

(e) Works for Hire. To the extent the Inventions consist of original works of authorship which are made by Executive (solely or
jointly with others) within the scope of Executive’s employment and which are protectable by copyright, Executive acknowledges that all such original works of authorship are “works for hire” as that term is defined in the United
States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101).

continued employment as an executive of the Company and in consideration of the Company’s obligations contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, its agreeing to grant the Management Units described in Section 3(f) and pay
severance benefits in the circumstances specified in Section 9(a), and because Executive shall have access to Confidential Information, including, without limitation, Trade Secrets, Executive hereby covenants as follows: 

  
 3 

 (a) Covenants. Without the prior written consent of the Board, (x) during
Executive’s employment with the Company and (y) for one (1) year after leaving the employment of the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, Executive shall not directly or indirectly, personally, by agency, as an employee,
officer or director, through a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or by any other artifice or device: 

(i) Own, manage, operate, control, work for, provide services to, employ, have any financial interest in, consult to, lend
Executive’s name to or engage in any capacity in any enterprise, business, company or other entity (whether existing or newly established) engaged in a Competitive Business, whether in anticipation of monetary compensation or otherwise;

 (ii) Hire, solicit or otherwise induce any current or former employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates to
terminate his or her employment with the Company or such Affiliate or to engage in any Competitive Business, or intentionally interfere with the relationship of the Company or any of its Affiliates with any such employee or former employee;

 (iii) Solicit or service in any way in connection with or relating to a Competitive Business, on behalf of Executive
or on behalf of or in conjunction with others, any supplier, client or customer, or prospective supplier, client, or customer, who has been solicited or serviced by the Company or any of its Affiliates; or 

(iv) Assist others in doing anything prohibited by clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above; in each case anywhere in the United
States. The covenants in this Section 5(a) shall be specifically enforceable. However, the covenants in this Section 5(a) shall not be construed to prohibit the ownership of not more than one percent of the equity of any publicly-held
entity engaged in direct competition with the Company, so long as Executive is not otherwise engaged with such entity in any of the other activities specified in Section 5(a)(i) through (iv) above. 

(b) Severability of Covenants. For purposes of this Section 5, Executive and the Company intend that the covenants contained
in Section 5 shall be construed as separate covenants, one for each activity and each geographic area. If one or more of these covenants are adjudicated to be unenforceable, such unenforceable covenant shall be deemed eliminated from this
Section 5 to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced. 
 (c) Acknowledgment.
Executive acknowledges that the covenants made by Executive in this Agreement are intended to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and not to prevent or interfere with Executive’s ability to earn a living. 

6. Injunctive Relief; Legal Fees. If Executive violates any of the provisions of Section 4 or 5 hereof (the
“Applicable Sections”), the Company shall be entitled to seek and, if awarded by a court or arbitrator, obtain immediate and permanent injunctive relief in addition to all other rights and remedies it may have,
it being agreed that a violation of the Applicable Sections would cause the Company irreparable harm, and the damages which the Company would sustain upon such violation are difficult or impossible to ascertain in advance. If the Company takes legal
action to enforce the covenants contained in the Applicable Sections, or to enjoin Executive from violating the Applicable Sections, as part of its damages, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable legal costs and expenses
for bringing and maintaining any such action from the losing party.

 7. No Conflict. Executive represents and warrants to the Company that
(a) Executive has not signed any employment agreement, confidentiality agreement, non-competition covenant or the like with any other employer that would conflict with this Agreement and (b) Executive’s employment with the Company
will not violate any other agreement or arrangement Executive has or may have had with any other former employer. Executive covenants that under no circumstances shall Executive disclose to the Company or use for the benefit of the Company any
confidential or proprietary information of any former employer or other third party, and Executive shall hold all such information in confidence, and shall comply with the terms of any and all applicable agreements between Executive and the third
party with respect to such information.

(7) commission of a criminal offense involving money or other property of the Company (excluding traffic or other similar violations); or (8) commission of a criminal offense that would, if committed in the State of Colorado, constitute a
felony under the laws of the State of Colorado or the United States of America. 
 (e) Voluntary Resignation. Executive
may terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Company. The Company, at its discretion, may waive the thirty (30) day notice requirement, and in such event shall be required
to make any payments in lieu of notice.

normal payroll practices. In addition, during any Severance Payment period, should Executive timely elect to continue coverage pursuant to COBRA, the Company agrees to reimburse Executive for the COBRA premiums due to maintain health insurance
coverage that is substantially equivalent to that which he received immediately prior to Executive’s termination. The Company shall also pay Executive (i) any salary earned but unpaid prior to termination and all accrued but unused
personal time, (ii) any business expenses incurred but not reimbursed as of the date of termination and (iii) any award under the annual bonus program referred to in Section 3(a) that has been approved by the Chief Executive Officer
and the Company’s Board of Directors but not paid prior to termination.

cases, the Company’s obligation to make payments hereunder shall cease upon such termination, except the Company shall pay Executive (i) any salary earned but unpaid prior to termination and all accrued but unused personal time,
(ii) any business expenses incurred but not reimbursed as of the date of termination and (iii) any award under the annual bonus program referred to in Section 3(a) that has been approved by the Chief Executive Officer and the

the Company all of the Company keys, credit cards, product samples, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists of existing and proposed customers, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blue-prints, sketches, materials, equipment, other
documents or property, together with all copies thereof belonging to the Company, its successors or assigns, and all Confidential Information (in all media) in Executive’s possession or under Executive’s control.

under this Agreement shall be sufficient in all respects if given in writing and delivered in person, by telecopy, by overnight courier, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the receiving party at the

 6 

 
be deemed given on the date of delivery, in the case of personal delivery or telecopy, or on the delivery or refusal date, as specified on the return receipt, in the case of overnight courier or
registered or certified mail. 
 11. Further Assurances. The parties shall cooperate fully with each other and execute
such further instruments, documents and agreements, and shall give such further written assurances, as may be reasonably requested by one another to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby and to carry
into effect the intent and purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive shall cooperate fully in assisting the Company to comply with contractual obligations of the Company to third parties regarding
Inventions, Trade Secrets and copyrights. 
 12. Waiver of Breach. A waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision
of this Agreement by Executive shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by Executive. 
 13.
Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado. Any action pursuant to Section 4 or 5 above may be brought in the Courts in the State of Colorado, and by execution of
this Agreement, Executive irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction. 
 14. Arbitration. 

(a) Any dispute arising in connection with this Agreement or Executive’s employment with the Company, except for equitable or
injunctive actions pursuant to Section 4 or 5 above, or claims by Executive for workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation or benefits under a Company benefits plan, shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration. Judgment upon
any award rendered by arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
 (b) The arbitrator shall be
selected by the mutual agreement of the parties. Any arbitrator selected shall be a professional having at least ten years of experience in labor or employment related practice areas. If the amount in dispute exceeds $250,000, the parties shall

permitted as determined by the arbitrator or arbitrators. Both parties to an arbitration shall have the right to be represented by counsel. The attorneys’ fees and costs of the arbitrator and arbitration proceedings are to be shared equally

fraud, outrageous conduct, promissory estoppel, violation of public policy, wrongful discharge or any other tort, contract or equitable theory. Executive agrees to exhaust any and all internal dispute resolution procedures established by the Company
prior to pursuing arbitration under this Agreement. 
 15. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
by any Court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force and effect, but the enforceability of all other provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired. 

16. Binding Agreement. Executive shall not delegate or assign any of Executive’s rights or obligations under this Agreement.
All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive, the Company and the Company’s successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Company may not assign
this Agreement to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Executive except (a) to AC HoldCo LLC or (b) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer by the Company of all or a substantial portion of its

 Exhibit 10.2.7 
 AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE TO 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

WHEREAS, AirCell LLC (the “Company”) and Anand K. Chari (the “Executive”) have heretofore entered into an
Employment Agreement dated as of July 12, 2006 (the “Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the
Executive desire to amend the Agreement to comply with final regulations issued under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Section 17 of the Agreement, the Agreement is hereby amended as follows, effective as of
January 1, 2009: 
 1. Section 3(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the second sentence thereof, and
inserting the following sentence in its place: 
 In addition, Executive shall be eligible for an annual
bonus with a target of thirty percent (30%) and a maximum payout of sixty percent (60%) of Base Salary under an annual bonus program that shall be administered by the Board of Directors, pursuant to which the annual bonus payable with
respect to any fiscal year shall be paid within the 2 1/2-month period beginning on the first day after the end of such fiscal year. 

 2. Section 9(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the phrase “, not
later than 45 days after the date of such termination,” immediately after the phrase “upon execution of a separation agreement,” where it appears in the first sentence thereof. 

3. The Agreement is hereby amended by renumbering Sections 15 through 19, and all references thereto, as Sections 16 through 20,
respectively, and by adding the following new Section 15, to read as follows: 
 15.
Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and shall be interpreted and construed consistently with such intent.
The payments to Executive pursuant to this Agreement are also intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, under either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation
§1.409A¬1(b)(9)(iii) or as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4). In the event the terms of this Agreement would subject Executive to taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code (“409A
Penalties”), the Company and Executive shall cooperate diligently to amend the terms of the Agreement to avoid such 409A Penalties, to the extent possible. To the extent any amounts under this Agreement are payable by reference to
Executive’s “termination of employment,” such term shall be deemed to refer to Executive’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of Executive’s separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable under this Agreement (i) constitutes the
payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) is payable upon Executive’s separation from service and (iii) under the terms of this Agreement would be payable prior to the
six-month anniversary of Executive’s separation from service, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (a) the six-month anniversary of the separation from service or (b) the date of Executive’s death. Any
reimbursement payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be conditioned on the submission by Executive of all expense reports reasonably required by the Company under any applicable expense reimbursement policy, and shall be paid to
Executive promptly following receipt of such expense reports, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred the reimbursable expense. Any amount of expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided, during a calendar year shall not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided, during any other calendar year. The right to any reimbursement or in-kind
benefit pursuant to this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. 

  
 2 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be executed by its duly
authorized officer and the Executive has executed this instrument as of this 22nd day of December, 2008.
