The rumor I heard was that the president rode in a Gulfstream and didn't like it (how is that possible lol?!) and so they have 2 global expresses on order. When I was doing a lot of flying out of PIA last summer they had a Global going into their ramp a couple times a week that was supposedly being leased or rented from the company while they were awaiting their jets on order.
Disclaimer: I didn't hear any of this from an official source, just the rumor going around while spending too many hours sitting around the FBO there.

At least that is what the last two new aircraft purchases I was involved with said (Global and Falcon)
Whatever, they all pay about the same.
