of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share commencing 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination
by the Company. Each warrant will contain such other terms identical to the warrants purchased by the Sponsor in connection with
the Company&rsquo;s initial public offering.</P>

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On November 6, 2012, Global Eagle Acquisition
Corp. (the "Company") issued a convertible promissory note (the "Convertible Note") to Global Eagle Acquisition
LLC (the "Sponsor") that provides for the Sponsor to advance to the Company, from time to time, up to $1,000,000 for
ongoing expenses.
The Convertible Note is non-interest bearing
and is payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of an initial business combination by the Company or (ii) February 18, 2013.
At the option of the Sponsor, any amounts
outstanding under the Convertible Note up to $500,000 may be converted into warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the
Company at a conversion price of $0.75 per warrant. Each warrant will entitle the Sponsor to purchase one share of common stock
of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share commencing 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination
by the Company. Each warrant will contain such other terms identical to the warrants purchased by the Sponsor in connection with
the Company's initial public offering.
The issuance of the Convertible Note was
made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Company has yet to draw upon the Convertible
Note.
