Agreement"); and
WHEREAS GI-Inc generates computerized reservations services through
GI-Inc's computer reservation system and distributes such services worldwide
for use by travel-related business entities, by CTMS Customers, and by
individual consumers; and
WHEREAS GI-Inc desires to appoint Sales Representatives that will be
responsible for the sale of GI-Inc's reservations services to such persons and
for the provision of ongoing support services to certain of such persons; and
WHEREAS The parties hereto agree that, because of the competitiveness
of the products and services of GI-Inc vis-a-vis like products and services of
all other companies within the CRS Industry, US Airways is desirous of entering
into this Agreement; and
WHEREAS The parties hereto agree that, because of US Airways' knowledge
of and contact with a substantial portion of the community of travel agents
within the Territory, GI-Inc is desirous of entering into this Agreement; and
WHEREAS US Airways and Apollo Partnership intend to terminate the
Original Agreement and US Airways desires to be a Sales Representative for
GI-Inc under the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth in
this Agreement, GI-Inc and US Airways hereby agree as follows:
1 Definitions.
Capitalized terms used as defined terms in this Agreement have, unless
otherwise defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the meanings provided for each
in Attachment A hereto.
7
2
2 Sales Agency and Territories.
2.1 Sales to NTP Subscribers.
2.1.1 Sales Agency Appointment.
With respect to the Assigned Subscribers, GI-Inc hereby
appoints US Airways as the exclusive limited agent of GI-Inc to obtain
commitments from the Assigned Subscribers to subscribe for and lease
Galileo Services. US Airways will act as the sales agent of GI-Inc
only for the limited purposes of negotiating and obtaining written
commitments from NTP Subscribers on terms and in a form prepared and
approved in advance by GI-Inc.
2.1.2 Designated Subscribers.
Exhibit C hereto lists the NTP Subscribers with locations in
the sales territories of more than one sales representative for whom
US Airways is the designated provider of Sales Services and Support
Services. US Airways is the exclusive provider of Sales Services and
Support Services for all locations of such NTP Subscribers in the
Territory. GI-Inc may add or delete NTP Subscribers from such Exhibit
C only with US Airways' consent. All NTP Subscribers listed on Exhibit
C are "Excluded Subscribers" for all other sales representatives of
GI-Inc, including for GI-Inc itself.
2.2 Sales to CTMS Customers.
With respect to CTMS Customers and CTMS Agents, GI-Inc hereby appoints
US Airways as its non-exclusive limited agent to obtain commitments from CTMS
Customers and CTMS Agents to purchase, license, or lease CTMS Services.
Pursuant to Section 4.2 below, and except in those territories where GI-Inc has
granted exclusive distribution rights to third parties with respect to Galileo
Services and CTMS Services, as listed in Exhibit E hereto, US Airways may act
as the sales agent of GI-Inc worldwide for the limited purposes of negotiating
and obtaining written commitments from CTMS Customers and CTMS Agents on terms
and in a form prepared and approved in advance by GI-Inc.
2.3 Other Sales Agents.
Subject to this Section 2 and to Section 3 below, GI-Inc may at its
discretion appoint other persons as sales agents of GI-Inc and GI-Inc may act
on its own behalf as sales agent. GI-Inc will treat each of its sales agents
in a fair and nondiscriminatory manner and as appropriate in a manner
proportionate to US Airways' responsibilities hereunder with respect to the
terms and conditions of its appointment as a sales representative, including,
but not limited to, the provision of Sales Services, Support Services,
training, the criteria for approvals of Form
8
3
Agreements, the compensation arrangements provided by GI-Inc, and in all
associated support functions that are GI-Inc's responsibility hereunder.
2.4 Territorial Reassignment.
A "Territorial Reassignment" shall occur in the event of (i) a
reassignment by GI-Inc among its sales representatives of territories outside
of the APR but within the Territory, or (ii) the termination of any arrangement
regarding sales agency between GI-Inc and another sales representative of
GI-Inc who is performing as a sales agent within the Territory but not within
the APR (an "Other Agent"). In the event of a Territorial Reassignment, GI-Inc
will offer to US Airways the right of first refusal to assume sales agent
responsibility within such reassigned territory or within the territory of such
terminated Other Agent. Before such territories are assigned to US Airways,
GI-Inc and US Airways will negotiate in good faith to adjust the performance
objectives and the compensation therefor as provided in Appendix II. If US
Airways and GI-Inc are unable within ninety days (90 days) from the
commencement of such negotiations to agree on the terms of adjustment for the
performance objectives and the compensation then GI-Inc shall be free to make
the Territorial Reassignment to any other agent or GI-Inc may perform such
sales function for itself.
2.5 Trade Names.
During the term of this Agreement and except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement, with respect to the APR, GI-Inc will market, and US Airways
will sell, the Reservations Services and CTMS Services of GI-Inc under the
"Apollo" trade name. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as a result of US
Airways' efforts under this Agreement, a customer of GI-Inc commits to purchase
GI-Inc products or services outside of the Territory then GI-Inc will determine
the trade name for such products or services outside of the Territory. For the
purposes of this Agreement it is assumed, without obligation on GI-Inc's part,
that such trade name outside of the Territory is "Galileo".
3 The Administration of this Agreement.
US Airways and GI-Inc agree that the proper and efficient
administration of each party's obligations under this Agreement is essential to
meeting the objectives of the parties hereunder. To this purpose, the parties
agree to dedicate appropriate staff and resources at an executive level, and
otherwise, as follows:
3.1 GI-Inc.
At all times during the term of this Agreement GI-Inc will
employ an individual who shall have primary responsibility for meeting

President and Chief Executive Officer of GI-Inc. The GI-Inc Executive shall
be a person who has experience and background commensurate with his or her
responsibilities. The GI-Inc Executive will maintain an office in the
Chicago metropolitan region.
The GI-Inc Executive shall have full authority to bind GI-Inc in all

(vii) the coordination and resolution of any issues arising under this
Agreement that, in US Airways' or GI-Inc's estimation, are affected
by actions that have been or may be taken by other sales agents of
GI-Inc or by GI-Inc.
The GI-Inc Executive may delegate to employees of GI-Inc or to persons
under the control of GI-Inc such matters that are his or her responsibility
hereunder and as may be, in the GI-Inc Executive's discretion, appropriate for
delegation provided that, if US Airways reasonably objects that such delegation
will result in a diminishment of GI-Inc's performance hereunder or in a
detriment to US Airways' ability to perform its obligations hereunder, or both,
then GI-Inc will review the proposed delegation and inform US Airways as to how
GI-Inc will address US Airways' reasonable concerns.
3.2 US Airways.

an individual to have primary responsibility for meeting US Airways'

the term of this Agreement, subject to the provisions of the corporate
by-laws and commitment authorities of US Airways, Inc., as approved by US
Airways, Inc.'s Board of Directors or CEO, including, without limitation:
(i) the conduct of US Airways' negotiations with current and potential
customers of GI-Inc on GI-Inc's behalf pursuant to this Agreement;
(ii) the negotiation with GI-Inc of goals and targets related to GI-Inc's
and US Airways' performance under this Agreement;
(iii) the compensation owed US Airways by GI-Inc under this agreement,

any third party where such negotiations involve the participation of
parties other than GI-Inc, US Airways, and that third party; and
(vi) the coordination and resolution of any issues arising under this
Agreement that, in US Airways' or GI-Inc's estimation, are affected by
actions that have been or may be taken by other sales agents of GI-Inc
or by GI-Inc.
The US Airways Executive may delegate to employees of US Airways or to
persons under the control of US Airways such matters that are his or her
responsibility hereunder and as may be, in the US Airways Executive's
estimation, appropriate for delegation, provided that, if GI-Inc reasonably
objects that such delegation will result in a diminishment of US Airways'
performance hereunder or in a detriment to GI-Inc's ability to perform its
obligations hereunder, or both, then US Airways will review the proposed
delegation and inform GI-Inc as to how US Airways will address GI-Inc's
reasonable concerns.
3.3 Meetings and Coordination.
The GI-Inc Executive and the US Airways Executive shall meet from time
to time, whether telephonically or in person and on a schedule to which they
mutually agree, to review the progress of each party's performance under this

factors that may potentially affect one or the other party performance
hereunder.

4 Responsibilities of US Airways.
4.1 NTP Sales Services.
Primarily using US Airways' General Sales Personnel, US Airways will
actively engage in the sale, marketing, and promotion of Galileo Services to
the Assigned Subscribers. To this end, US Airways will perform the following
services for GI-Inc pursuant to this Agreement (such services are,
collectively, "NTP Sales Services"):
(i) Scope. US Airways will engage in NTP Sales Services regarding only those
Galileo Services as directed or authorized in advance by GI- Inc.
(ii) Contact. US Airways will maintain current and establish new personal
and telephone contact and sales relationships, including, where
appropriate, in person or telephone sales calls. At GI-Inc's expense,
US Airways may, on approval of GI-Inc, undertake direct mail
solicitations, promotions, and other sales efforts, with NTP Subscribers
within the APR. GI-Inc may disapprove any sales promotion or
solicitation with respect to the Galileo Services that GI-Inc in its
reasonable discretion determines to be contrary to the objectives or
policies of GI-Inc.
(iii) Commitment Review Procedure. US Airways shall follow the Commitment
Review Procedure described in Section 5.2 below.
(iv) Support Services. Subject to the NTP Form Agreement and within the
Negotiation Range, US Airways shall offer to NTP Subscribers within

Sales Services regarding such Galileo Service or feature.
(vi) Changes to US Airways Organization. US Airways will give GI-Inc prompt
written notice regarding any significant re-organization, redeployment
or change of responsibilities of its General Sales Personnel (an
"Organization Change"). If such Organization Change is likely to result
in an inability of US Airways to perform NTP Sales Services in a
metropolitan area in the APR that provides a significant portion of
Total Revenue then US Airways will notify GI-Inc as to whether
(a) US Airways chooses to continue providing services under this
Agreement in such area, in which case US Airways will propose to
GI-Inc how US Airways will staff the necessary Sales Force
coverage for such area, and GI-Inc will review US Airways'
proposal in good faith and determine whether it accepts the
proposal; or
(b) US Airways chooses not to continue providing services under this
Agreement in such area.
12

In the event of (b), above, or of GI-Inc's rejection of US Airways' proposal
in (a), above, then GI-Inc may reassign sales responsibility in such area to

paying its bills when due without just cause; if a receiver of the Insolvent
Party's assets is appointed; if the Insolvent Party takes any step leading to
its cessation as a going concern; or if the Insolvent Party either ceases or
suspends operations for reasons other than a strike, then immediately upon
receipt of written notice from the Insecure Party the Insolvent Party will
provide adequate assurance, satisfactory to the Insecure Party, of the future
performance of this Agreement. If bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with
respect to the Insolvent Party, then the Insecure Party may suspend all further
performance of this Agreement until the Insolvent Party
23
18
assumes or rejects this Agreement pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code or any similar or successor provision. Any such suspension of further
performance by the Insecure Party pending the Insolvent Party's assumption or
rejection will not be a breach of this Agreement and will not affect the
Insecure Party's right to pursue or enforce any of its rights under this
Agreement or otherwise

that is based, for the year in question, on Total Revenue versus the Revenue
Plan and on Financial Assistance spending versus the FA Budget.
Notwithstanding the generality of this Section 1, the procedure for determining
US Airways' compensation under this Agreement is as described in this Appendix
II.
2 Goals.
Subject to Sections 4.5 of this Agreement and Section 3 below, in no
event later than February 28 of each year, US Airways and GI-Inc will complete
negotiations with respect to the goal for Total Revenue for that year and the
budget for Financial Assistance for that year (respectively, the "Revenue Goal"
and the "FA Budget"). Modifications to the Revenue Goal and the FA Budget are
subject to the provisions of this Agreement. For 1997, the Revenue Goal and
the FA Budget are as shown on Schedule 1 of this Agreement.
3 Financial Assistance.
3.1 FA Budget.
FA Budgets will be determined concurrently with Revenue Goals
for each year during the term of this Agreement and in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2 above. The FA Budget for each year will
(i) include contractual commitments for the payment of Financial
Assistance for that year and for which GI-Inc is obligated, (ii)
include reasonable estimates and projections as to additional
Financial Assistance that may be required to gain new business or
retain existing customers, and (iii) be commensurate with the Revenue
Goal for that year. Subject to Section 3.2 below, at no time will US
Airways be required or requested to provide Financial Assistance to
any person either directly or through adjustments to, or inclusions
in, the FA Budget, the Revenue Goal, the Base Compensation, the
Guaranteed Compensation, the Performance Compensation, or otherwise.
3.2 Adjustments With Respect to Financial Assistance.
US Airways will not exceed the FA Budget during any year of
this Agreement; [*] percent of all Financial Assistance expenditures
by US Airways in excess of the FA
(APPENDIX II-1)
31
Budget will be deducted from Total Revenue counted toward the Revenue
Goal for that year. If GI-Inc's Financial Assistance expenditures with
respect to the Total Revenue are under the FA Budget for that year then
the difference between such expenditures and the FA Budget will be
added to Total Revenue counted toward the Revenue Goal for that year.
4 Failure to Agree.
4.1 Dispute Resolution Procedure.
Failing agreement on the Revenue Goal or the FA Budget, or
both, the negotiators will submit their positions to the Dispute
Resolution Procedure as described in Attachment B hereto.
4.2 Carryover Plan.
Until such time as the Dispute Resolution Procedure is
completed the parties shall operate under this Agreement on the basis
of a "Carryover Plan" that shall include, with respect to the calendar
year in question:
(i) a "Carryover Revenue Goal" for that calendar year that will
function for the purposes of this Agreement in lieu of the
Revenue Goal for that year and that equals the Revenue Goal
for the immediately preceding calendar year increased or
decreased, as the case may be, by the FAA Factor;
(ii) a "Carryover FA Budget" for that calendar year that will
function for the purposes of this Agreement in lieu of the FA
Budget for that year and that equals the FA Budget for the
immediately preceding calendar year increased or decreased, as
the case may be, by the FAA Factor; and
(iii) a "Carryover Base Compensation" for that calendar year that
will function for the purposes of this Agreement in lieu of
the Base Compensation for that year and that equals the Base
Compensation for the immediately preceding calendar year
increased by [*].
5 Material Changes.
If a change occurs in the structure of the air transportation industry
or of the CRS Industry, including without limitation changes in the number or
types of competitors, customers, products, or services of either industry,
which change is likely to cause either or both of the following cases (i) a
material change to the flows of revenue through ARC, or (ii) a requirement that
entails the provision of substantial additional Sales Services in the APR (in
either case a "Material Change"), then, as the case may be, (a) either GI-Inc
or US Airways may request that the parties renegotiate the Revenue Goal or the
FA Budget, or both, for that year, and (b) US Airways will have the right of
first refusal, exercisable within ten business days of written notice from
GI-Inc, to elect to provide such additional Sales Services in the APR. Failing
agreement on adjustments to the Revenue Goal or the FA Budget, or both, such
adjustments to the Revenue Goal or the FA Budget, or both, will be determined
as provided in Section 4.1 above.
(APPENDIX II-2)
32
6 Base Compensation.
"Base Compensation" shall be the prior year's Base Compensation
increased by an amount equal to [*] of such prior year's Base Compensation
prorated, for increases [*], as the percentage of the prior year's Revenue Goal
attained by US Airways increases from [*]. Base Compensation for 1997 is as
provided on Schedule 1 of this Agreement.
7 Guaranteed Compensation.
US Airways will be paid [*] of Base Compensation ("Guaranteed
Compensation") if US Airways meets the staffing levels as provided in Section 6
above. US Airways will be paid [*] percent of Base Compensation in any event if
US Airways meets its Revenue Goal. [*] of Base Compensation will be at risk
based on the Revenue Goal performance (the "Performance Compensation").
8 [*]
(APPENDIX II-3)
33
[*]
9 Advance Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Appendix II, in the event US Airways attains [*] of the
Revenue Goal for a year then US Airways may, at its option, be credited, for
purposes of determining its compensation under this Appendix II, with the amount
(the "Advance Credit") necessary to achieve [*] of its Revenue Goal for such
year. US Airways shall exercise its option hereunder to take an Advance Credit
by written notice to GI-Inc received no later than the fifth business day of the
next succeeding year. The amount of the Advance Credit shall be deducted from
Total Revenue otherwise attributable to US Airways for any purpose under this
Agreement during January of such succeeding year. No such Advance Credit shall
be taken into account in setting the Revenue Goal. US Airways may not exercise
the option under this Section 9 in two successive years.
10 Penalties: US Airways.
If US Airways meets the staffing minimums provided in Section 4.7 of
this Agreement, US Airways will receive its Guaranteed Compensation as set
forth in this Appendix II. If US Airways fails to meet such staffing minimums
and fails to meet its Revenue Goal, then
[*]
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as US Airways meets its Revenue
Goal for the year, US Airways will receive its Base Compensation for such year
regardless of staffing goals attained.
