(b) Retroactive to June 4, 2001 and continuing until July 31, 2003, this
Section shall apply to Net Air Segments and Booking Fees of Charter
Airlines. In determining the number of Net Air Segments of Charter
Airlines, Worldspan will include ninety-five percent (95%) of the Net
Air Segments booked by Orbitz users on Charter Airlines. The remaining
five percent (5%) of the Net Air Segments booked by Orbitz users on
Charter Airlines will not be taken into consideration in determining
the Adjusted Segment Fee payable to Orbitz. In addition, Worldspan
will pay Orbitz a fee equal to five percent (5%) of the Booking Fees

Segments or Booking Fees from a Charter Airline that implements a
direct connection to Orbitz; (ii) any Charter Airline that ceases to
be a Charter Airline; (iii) any Charter Airline that Orbitz is not
contractually obligated to pay air segment rebates; (iv) any Net Air
Segments or Booking Fees from Charter Airlines after September 30,
2003; or (v) as otherwise agreed by Orbitz and Worldspan.

to reach a definitive agreement by December 31, 2001 whereby Orbitz shall

4.5 TIME OF PAYMENT. Promptly after the end of each calendar month during the
Term of this Agreement, WORLDSPAN will submit to Orbitz:
(a) An invoice for all amounts that are payable to WORLDSPAN by Orbitz
hereunder for that month.
----------
*** Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately
with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with

<Page>
(b) A report of all amounts that are payable to Orbitz by WORLDSPAN
hereunder for that month.
All such amounts, whether payable to WORLDSPAN or Orbitz, will be due and
payable within thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice therefor or
the report thereof, as the case may be. However, the Party owing the larger
amount to the other Party may, at its discretion and after giving the other
Party at least ten (10) days' notice thereof, set-off the amount owed to it
by the other Party against the amount it owes the other Party and pay only
the net amount to the other Party. Any amount payable to either Party that
is not paid when due, and any amount that is erroneously paid to either
Party and is not repaid within thirty (30) days after that Party receives a
written request for repayment, will thereafter bear interest until paid or
repaid, as the case may be, at a rate of interest equal to the United
States prime rate that, as of the date such amount was due, was then most
recently published in the "Money Rates" section of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL;
provided, however, that in no event will such rate of interest exceed the
maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
4.6 TAXES. Each Party will be responsible for, and will pay or reimburse the
other for, any sales, use, excise, value-added, or similar taxes (but not
including taxes on net income or franchise taxes) that are based upon any
services, materials or goods provided to that Party hereunder or upon any
amounts payable to the other Party hereunder. Each Party will cooperate
with the other in minimizing any applicable taxes, including providing to
the other any exemption certificates or other information reasonably
requested by the other.
ARTICLE V
CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
5.1 CONTRACT MANAGERS. Each Party will from time to time appoint, and give the
other written notice of the appointment of, an individual (the "Contract
Manager" for that Party) who will oversee and manage the performance of
that Party's obligations under this Agreement, will serve as that Party's
primary point of contact with the other Party, and will be authorized to
act for and on behalf of that Party with respect to all matters relating to
this Agreement.
5.2 PERIODIC MEETINGS. In order to facilitate and enhance on-going
communications, the Contract Managers will meet on a mutually agreed
periodic basis, and at such other times as may be reasonably requested by
either of them, to review the Parties' performance of their obligations
under this Agreement and to discuss technical plans, financial matters,
system performance, service levels and any other matters related to this
Agreement that may be reasonably requested by either Party.
5.3 MANAGEMENT REPORTS. On at least a calendar monthly basis, WORLDSPAN will
provide to Orbitz reports of WORLDSPAN's performance of its obligations
pursuant to this Agreement, including information regarding WORLDSPAN's
performance with respect to
9

for its computer network, preventing unauthorized access to its computer
systems, implementing administrative security controls for its computing
operations, installing firewalls in its communications network, protecting
its computer resources from insider abuse, having appropriate
administrative procedures to ensure that system access capability to its
computer systems is given to only authorized users and is promptly
withdrawn from terminated employees or other persons who are no longer
authorized, establishing a single point of control for responses to
incidents involving its security, and monitoring the effectiveness of the
security of its computer network. Neither Party will, or will assist others
in efforts to, subvert, compromise, or otherwise interfere with the
operations or security of any communications network or computing facility
of the other. Each Party will cooperate with the other in investigating and
prosecuting any security breaches that affect or threaten the security of
the other.
6.2 CONFIDENTIALITY. Each Party agrees that all Confidential Information
disclosed to it by the other, whether before or after the Effective Date,
will be held in strict confidence, will be used only for purposes of this
Agreement, will be kept in as secure a location and with as stringent
precautions as the receiving Party uses for its own similar information,
will be provided only to those employees and agents of the receiving Party
who require such access for purposes of this Agreement, and will not be
disclosed to any unauthorized person by the receiving Party or any of its
employees or agents except with the prior written consent of the disclosing
Party or as may be required by legal or regulatory requirements beyond the
control of the receiving Party.
6.3 PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. Orbitz acknowledges and agrees that, as between the
Parties, the WORLDSPAN System will be and remain the property of WORLDSPAN
and that the WORLDSPAN System constitutes and includes trade secrets and
proprietary and confidential information of WORLDSPAN. Orbitz will, and

Parties, the Orbitz Information shall be deemed the confidential and
proprietary information of Orbitz and shall be considered as
work-made-for-hire. To the extent the Orbitz Information is not considered
work-made-for-hire, WORLDSPAN hereby assigns upon creation all ownership
rights that WORLDSPAN may have or hereafter acquires in the Orbitz
Information to Orbitz. WORLDSPAN shall cooperate with Orbitz in securing,
enforcing and otherwise protecting Orbitz's interest in the Orbitz
Information, including, without limitation, by signing all documents
reasonably requested by Orbitz. Upon request by Orbitz, WORLDSPAN shall
provide all Orbitz Information in the form, format and manner as may be
reasonably requested by Orbitz. However, notwithstanding the foregoing,
WORLDSPAN may disclose Orbitz Information if and to the extent required by
legal or regulatory requirements and may use aggregate information and
statistics reflecting the use of the WORLDSPAN System by means of the
Orbitz Website as long as such use is in accordance with applicable legal
or regulatory requirements and in accordance with WORLDSPAN's ordinary and
customary business practices.

in the performance of any of its duties or obligations hereunder and does
not substantially cure the default within thirty (30) days after being
given written notice specifying the default, or, with respect to any
default that cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, if the
defaulting Party fails to proceed promptly after being given such notice to

time thereafter and before the default is substantially cured, terminate
this Agreement as of a date specified in the notice of termination.

8.5 RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. In the event of any dispute between the Parties
arising from or relating to this Agreement, the Parties will resolve the
dispute by using the following procedures:
(a) Upon the request of either Party, the Contract Managers will meet to
discuss the dispute, will exchange any information that they mutually
agree is relevant to the issues in dispute, and will use all
reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute without the need for further
proceedings.
(b) If the Contract Managers fail to resolve the dispute within ten (10)
business days after the initial request that they meet to resolve the
dispute in accordance with subsection (a) above, or mutually conclude
in good faith that they are unlikely to resolve the dispute, then,
upon the request of either Party, each of the Parties will designate a
senior executive, who may be supported by legal and technical
advisers, to meet with the senior executive designated by the other
Party and negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute on an
amicable basis.
(c) If the designated senior executives fail to resolve the dispute within
ten (10) business days after the initial request that they meet to
resolve the dispute in accordance with subsection (b) above, or
mutually conclude in good faith that resolution through such
negotiations does not appear likely, then, upon the request of either
Party, the dispute will be submitted to non-binding mediation as set
forth herein. In the mediation process, the Parties will try to
resolve their differences voluntarily with the aid of an impartial
mediator, who will attempt to facilitate negotiations. The mediator
will be selected by agreement of the Parties. If the Parties cannot
agree on a mediator, a mediator will be designated by the American
Arbitration Association or JAMS/Endispute, or other mutually
acceptable reputable dispute resolution firm, at the request of either
Party. Any mediator so designated must be acceptable to both Parties.
The mediation will be conducted as specified by the mediator and
agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties agree to discuss their
differences in good faith and to attempt, with the assistance of the
mediator, to reach an amicable resolution of the dispute. The
mediation will be treated as a settlement discussion and therefore
will be confidential. The mediator may not testify for either Party in
any later proceeding relating to the dispute. No recording or
transcript shall be made of the mediation proceedings. The mediation
shall be conducted in Chicago, Illinois. Each Party shall, except as
otherwise provided herein, be responsible for its own expenses,
including legal fees, incurred in the course of the dispute resolution
period and mediation. The fees of the mediator shall be divided evenly
between the Parties.
(d) Neither Party may commence any legal action arising out of this
Agreement until thirty (30) days after the commencement of the
mediation as set forth above, or such shorter period as the Parties
may mutually agree in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 8.5, either Party may seek interim judicial
relief, including injunctions, specific performance, and other
equitable remedies,
14
<Page>
to the extent necessary to preserve the status quo or prevent
irreparable injury until any related dispute can be resolved as
provided in this Section 8.5.
(e) Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based
on any right arising out of, this Agreement may be brought against
either Party only in the appropriate state or federal courts located
in Cook County, Illinois. Each Party consents to the exclusive
jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts)
in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue
laid therein.
