Item 1.01 
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On August 30, 2011, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (“NGA”) and GeoEye Imagery Collection Systems Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of GeoEye, Inc. (“Company”) entered into an Amendment (“Amendment”) to the EnhancedView contract dated August 6, 2010.  The Amendment extends the performance period of the base year of the Service Level Agreement portion of the EnhancedView contract (“EnhancedView SLA”), under the same terms and conditions, to October 4, 2011. The Amendment also changes the date by which NGA may exercise its first of nine one-year renewal options under the EnhancedView SLA from August 31, 2011 to October 31, 2011.  The first of the one-year renewal options will be shortened by the amount that the base year is extended by the Amendment, so that the second option year will be exercisable on August 31, 2012.
 
The Company intends to apply for confidential treatment of portions of the Amendment and will file the Amendment as an exhibit to its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2011.
