REF.: AGREEMENT FROM MEETING OF AUGUST 20, 2002
Dear Xxxxxx,
First of all, we wanted to thank you for taking the time to meet with us on
August 20, 2002 to continue our discussions towards, among other things, the
potential changes to certain measurements of performance and to Itau's marketing
activities under the Strategic Interactive Services and Marketing Agreement
dated June 12, 2002, between America Online Latin America, Inc. and AOL Brasil
Ltda. ("AOLB") on the one hand (together "AOLA") and Banco Itau S.A. ("Itau") on
the other hand (the "Agreement"). While I believe that we all agree that there
is still much work to be done, we look forward to continuing to work closely
with Itau to make our business partnership beneficial for both parties. It is
our hope that the meeting held on August 20 will provide a solid base for those
continued efforts.
As you know, pursuant to a letter signed on August 7, 2002, the Parties agreed
to extend the second Anniversary Date from December 10, 2002 to December 24,
2002.
Today, over two weeks after the execution of the August 7 letter, although we
have made significant progress, we have not yet reached a final agreement on the
referred changes. Furthermore, once we reach such an agreement on a business
level, we expect it will take time for the parties' legal teams to memorialize
the agreed marketing plan in a final document.
In this sense, each of AOLA, AOLB, and Itau agrees that, for the purposes of the
Agreement, the second Anniversary Date shall be changed from December 24, 2002
to January 31, 2003.
In consideration of the extension of the Second Anniversary Date, AOLA, AOLB and
Itau each agree to continue to meet and to negotiate in good faith, until
September 20, 2002, the marketing plan that may result in an amendment to the
Agreement.
In addition, AOLA, AOLB and Itau each agree that in the event they do not reach
an agreement regarding such marketing plan by September 20, 2002, the second
Anniversary Date shall be considered automatically extended to February 28,
2003. This letter shall not amend or otherwise modify the agreement in any way
other than to change the day of the second Anniversary Date.
