Midway Card System Feature enhancements:
This document outlines the recent feature enhancements that PATHWAYS will be
making to the Midway Card System (MCS) software. These enhancements are being
made at the request of the Client in support of the upcoming Summer season.
It is agreed that PATHWAYS will make these changes and deliver the new revisions
on July 11th, prior the opening of the Lake Fair event in Olympia, WA. The list
of features to be added and a summary description of each is listed below:
SPECIALS:
1. 7 RIDE TICKETS FOR $10:
The MCS software will allow customer of Client (hereinafter customer) to
purchase 7 ride tickets for $10. The number of ride tickets and the $ value
will be definable by the venue PC operator. (i.e. other than 7 / $10) when
other similar ride ticket specials are offered. The assumption is that 1
ticket = 1 ride during the offering of this special. This special will be
accepted only at terminals located at the entrances to rides which
previously accepted tickets.
2. 20 GAME TICKETS FOR $8:
The MCS software will allow customer to purchase $10 worth of games for $8
in cash value. The $10 and $8 values will be definable by the venue PC
operator. The redemption at a game will take place as always. If the
customer purchases a $2 game the actual dollar value of the game will be
deducted from the specials purse. For example, the customer will receive a
total of 5 each $2 games. This special will be accepted only at terminals
located at games booths which previously accepted only cash, and not
tickets. It will not apply to concessions.
3. 1/2 PRICE TICKETs:
The MCS software will allow the purchase of tickets at 1/2 price. The value
of 1/2 ( 50%) will be definable by the venue PC operator.. The 1/2 price
applies to both full price and discount tickets. The system will deduct
tickets from the appropriate full price or discount ticket purse on the card
in the same identical
Page 3 of 5
manner as the current system. This special will be accepted at terminals
that accept tickets only (rides).
4. PAY-ONE-PRICE (POP), RIDE ALL DAY:
The MCS software will allow the purchase of an all day ride special or
otherwise referred to as a pay-one-price special. The customer will pay one
price and receive a card that is good on all rides only during the hours
specified by the operator. IMPORTANT: The system will allow the entry of
more than one person for the POP special on a card. In other words the
ticket window system will allow someone to put more than one ride all day
special on a card for that day (i.e. an adult could pay for himself and his
two children and have it recorded on one card instead of 3 separate cards).
When a customer enters a ride during the special the operator will ask how
many riders and enter it in to the terminal. If there are not enough riders
recorded on the card the system will automatically deduct the equivalent
number of tickets for the ride from the discount ticket purse, and the full
price ticket purse accordingly. Also, the corresponding $ value will be
deducted from the discount or full price purse, if any, on the card. If
there is not enough in both the POP riders purse and the discount or full
price purse the system will prompt the user that there is insufficient
funds. The POP special will only be accepted at terminals that previously
accepted tickets only (rides).
OPERATIONAL ENHANCEMENTS:
5. DUAL SITE:
This enhancement is being added to allow the collection system application
and the Customer Service Application to be run on two different PC's at a
venue. As such, this creates the need for database synchronization between
the different computers. In the event that the two computers are not
networked, the synchronization will take place by copying the master
database from the collection PC on to a floppy disk and transporting the
disk to the remote Customer Service PC by hand and copying the database over
to that PC. If the computers are networked (i.e. Ethernet cable), the floppy
disk transfer method will not be required. NOTE: the customer must
understand that any changes that are made within the collection system (i.e.
adding a venue, adding a terminal, etc.) will require that the Client
exports the database to a floppy disk and transport it to the Customer
Service PC.
Any transactions performed on the Customer Service PC will require the same
method of data collection as always. In other words, the Customer Service PC
will require the collection of data on to a manager's card that will then be
imported in to the collection PC software. The manager card method of data
collection from the Customer Service PC will be required regardless of
whether the PC's are networked.

6. CUT OFF TIME:
The MCS software will allow the manager, acting through the venue PC
operator, to set the appropriate time flag for end of business day. This is
necessary for some venues where the business day ends beyond midnight for
some reason. The need is for all trace records and summary records to be
recorded for the prior full operational day for accounting purposes.
7. TRANSACTIONAL BILLING:
The MCS software will incorporate a transactional billing feature in this
enhancement release. Below is an example of the billing cycle steps:
Assume billing month is: July, 2000
a. On August 1st the Client will run an "export transactions" function within
the collection system that will export all transactions for the month of
July to a disk (floppy or zip tbd). Each transaction will be flagged as
being sent so that the data will not be resent during subsequent billing
periods. The customer will not be required to enter date ranges or remember
what was included in the last billing period. The system will allow for
recollection of previously sent data in the event a diskette is bad or is
lost in the mail.
b. Client will take the total number of transactions for the month, multiply
that number by [Omitted based upon a request for confidential treatment
pursuant to Rule 24B-2 under the Securities Act of 1934. The omitted
portion has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.] and prepare a check payable to PATHWAYS, to be sent with the
disk to PATHWAYS.
This same procedure will be followed on a monthly basis for the duration of
the rental AGREEMENT period.
