composed of [**].  [**].  The subsections below describe the TPFCVC Arrangement.

 

Definitions:

 

For purposes of this Section 6 and related provisions of this AMO Agreement:

 

“TPF Complex” means the [**] Machines identified in Exhibit B as the TPF Complex.

 

“TPF System” means any base (as opposed to z/VM guest) TPF operating system and associated TPF Workload running in the TPF Complex.

 

“MIPS” means million instructions per second, which is a unit of measurement for the processing capacity of a Central Processor (“CP”), which is frequently referred to as an “engine”, or a Machine.  It is an approximation of relative internal processor performance.  The MIPS numbers in this Section 6 are specific to, and are to be used solely for measuring elements of, this Section 6 only.  They are not intended for capacity planning purposes nor does IBM make any representation that they will be an accurate reflection of the results that Galileo might expect to achieve in its unique operational environment.

 

“Adjusted Peak Capacity Usage” means, for each day, the highest number of MIPS used by the TPF Systems during that day, as described in the subsection below entitled “TPFCVC Reporting”.

 

“Baseline Capacity” means [**] MIPS of TPF Complex capacity.

 

“Variable Capacity” means the temporary, incremental TPF System capacity, as measured in MIPS, utilized in excess of the Baseline Capacity.

 

[**]

 

“z/VM System” means any system running in the TPF Complex that runs under the z/VM operating system.

 

Use of the TPF Complex:

 

Galileo’s use of the TPF Complex is limited as follows:

 

·                  The use of the TPF Complex for z/VM Systems is restricted to only those certain CPs for which and on which the Travelport Enterprise has specifically licensed z/VM.  This may include a license covered by the Special Offering Attachment for VM Charges set forth in Exhibit N, a z/VM license owned by the Travelport Enterprise and applied to an Integrated Facility for Linux (“IFL”) processor, or any other z/VM licensing agreement between the Travelport Enterprise and IBM.

 

·                  The use of the TPF Complex for TPF Systems is [**].  [**].

 

General:

 

IBM shall provide Variable Capacity, and Galileo agrees to pay [**] for the Variable Capacity, under this AMO Agreement.  This Variable Capacity is available only for the TPF Workload.  These Machines are currently activated as shown in the following table:

TPFCVC Reporting:

 

Galileo agrees to measure and report to IBM the number of MIPS used by all TPF Systems.  This report (the “TPFCVC Report”) will be provided to IBM on a monthly basis, in the format of a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

 

The TPFCVC Report will include, at a minimum:

 

·                  The installed capacity setting of each Machine in the TPF Complex.

 

·                  For each TPF System, the average number of MIPS used in each [**] minute period beginning at midnight, Eastern time, of each day ([**] measurements per TPF System for each day).

 

·                  For each [**] minute period, the sum of the average number of MIPS used by all the TPF Systems.  For each day, the highest of these numbers (the “Peak Capacity Usage” for that day) shall be marked with an asterisk or other readily identifiable mark.

 

·                  A description of any circumstances that Galileo believes caused an abnormality in the data that should result in an adjustment to the Peak Capacity Usage for any day, as described below.

 

The TPFCVC Report for each month will be available to IBM no later than the 10th day of the following month.  Galileo will deliver the monthly report electronically to, at a minimum, the IBM AMO Project Executive, the IBM Client Executive, and the IBM AMO Account Support Representative.  IBM will provide Galileo with appropriate contact information for each of these individuals, and will update that information as applicable.  If Galileo has not provided this report by the 20th day of the following month, it will be assumed that the Peak Capacity Usage on each day of the applicable month was equal to the total capacity of the TPF Complex less the capacity available for z/VM Systems, as shown in the Initial TPFCVC Setup Table set forth above, and Galileo will be invoiced accordingly.  However, if the TPFCVC Report later shows that the invoiced amount was not correct, then appropriate adjustments will be made, provided such discovery is made within one month from the date of the invoice.

 

In the event that an abnormality is apparent in the data reflected in the TPFCVC Report for any month, whether caused by an operational or data collection error or other unusual circumstance, the Parties will work in good faith to resolve such error or unusual circumstance.  Galileo will clearly identify any such area of concern in the data and will provide additional information as reasonably requested by IBM to clarify the reason for the abnormality.  The intention of the Parties is to fairly adjust the [**] under this provision for unusual capacity abnormalities caused by unpredictable system situations, such as a “looping program” or Machines outage.  This provision is not intended in

 

5



 

any way to mitigate any real peaks in the workload of these Machines.  The Adjusted Peak Capacity Usage for each day will be the reported Peak Capacity Usage for that day as adjusted, if necessary, to account for any abnormality.

 

For avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that the Galileo International TPF Systems to be migrated into the TPF Complex do not currently have the capability of reporting [**] and, therefore, the TPFCVC Report will not include the [**].  Galileo agrees that this will be accomplished [**].

 

Galileo will retain, for 60 days after the end of each month, data showing the MIPS used by each TPF System during that month, as recorded by Galileo at one minute intervals.  Within that 60 day period, Galileo agrees to provide that data to IBM upon receipt of a written request from IBM.

 

[**] Charge Calculation:

 

For each day that the Adjusted Peak Capacity Usage exceeds the Baseline Capacity, the number of MIPS by which the Adjusted Peak Capacity Usage exceeds the Baseline Capacity will be multiplied by $[**] to determine the [**] Charge for that day.  The sum of the [**] Charges for all the days in a month shall constitute the [**] Charge for that month.

 

The [**] Charge for each month, if any, will be invoiced to Galileo as an [**] charge under this AMO Agreement and will be [**] without the requirement for a confirming Order Letter.  IBM will provide Galileo notification, via electronic mail, of any [**] Charges before adding them to the invoice.

 

TPFCVC Adjustments:

 

If Galileo requires additional configured microcode CP capacity above the [**] enabled MIPS shown in the Initial TPFCVC Setup Table, then IBM will make such capacity available in configured CP increments specified by Galileo for either TPF System or z/VM System use.  Maintenance Services and Programs will be charged for all such additional configured capacity.  TPF System Capacity may be priced, at Galileo’s option, as either [**] Capacity or as a combination of [**] Capacity and [**] Capacity at a ratio of at least [**] MIPS to [**] MIPS.  Baseline Capacity will be priced pursuant to the [**] for System z Processors included in Exhibit M.  Variable Capacity will be subject to [**] Charges.  z/VM Capacity will be priced pursuant to the [**].  Any other TPF Complex Machines or microcode enabled changes or additions will also be priced pursuant to the [**].  Any associated Maintenance Services charges will be determined separately in accordance with any applicable agreements that may then be in effect between IBM and the Travelport Enterprise.  Charges for Programs will be determined in accordance with any applicable agreement in effect between us, including any applicable Additional Agreement.  All TPFCVC Adjustments shall be confirmed by the Parties in an Order Letter.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, IBM is not obligated to provide any equipment or any upgrade of installed equipment beyond the date that the equipment or upgrade is no longer available to IBM customers, as specified in any future withdrawal from marketing announcement.”

 

12.                   IBM Credit Financing.  Section 15 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “IBM Credit Financing”, is amended by deleting the first sentence of the third paragraph in its entirety and replacing it as follows:

 

“IBM or IBM Credit’s obligation to accept any Base Capacity transaction specified in Exhibit B for which an Order Letter has not been executed (an “Unconfirmed Base Capacity Transaction”) is contingent upon: 1) IBM Credit’s prior review and approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and 2) Galileo

not being in Default of this AMO Agreement, provided IBM or IBM Credit has provided written notice of such Default.”

 

13.                   Material Adverse Change Provision.  Section 17 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “Material Adverse Change Provision”, is deleted in its entirety.

 

14.                   Representations and Warranties.  Subsection (c) of Section 18 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “Representations and Warranties”, is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“(c)                since the date of the last Financial Statements provided to IBM Credit by Galileo, there has been no change in Galileo’s consolidated financial position or operations, considered as a whole, which would constitute a material adverse change in the financial condition (including consideration of the business, operations, results of operations, and assets) of the Travelport Enterprise, taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Change”); provided, however, that no distribution to Galileo’s owners will be considered, or taken into account when determining whether there has been, a Material Adverse Change; and”

 

15.                   Covenants.  Section 19 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “Covenants”, is amended by adding thereto the following subsections:

 

“(c)                Travelport LLC will maintain at all times a published credit rating from Moody’s Investors Services for senior unsecured debt greater than or equal to [**].

 

(d)                     [**].”

 

16.                   Termination Option.  The first paragraph of Section 21, entitled “Termination Option”, as previously amended by Amendment 3, is amended by replacing the date “July 1, 2007” with the date “January 1, 2009”.

 

17.                   Assignment.  The first paragraph of Section 26, entitled “Assignment”, is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“Neither IBM nor Galileo may assign its rights or obligations under this AMO Agreement, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt to make such assignment shall be void, except (i) IBM may assign this AMO Agreement to any affiliate as long as IBM shall remain responsible to Galileo for the full performance of the terms of this AMO Agreement, (ii) IBM may assign its right to receive payment, and (iii) subject to Section 19(d), Galileo may assign this AMO Agreement to another member of the Travelport Enterprise or to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of the Travelport Enterprise’s stock or other ownership interests or assets, in either case with prior written notice to IBM Credit provided, however, any such assignment shall not relieve Galileo of its obligations under this AMO Agreement unless IBM Credit consents thereto, and provided further, that Galileo and the acquiring entity execute an assignment and assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to IBM Credit.  For purposes of this AMO Agreement, the Travelport Enterprise includes any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Galileo International, where control of an entity means having the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of the entity.  It is not considered an assignment for IBM to divest a portion of its business in a manner that similarly affects all of its customers.  In all situations involving an assignment by Galileo, the assignee must be the end user of the Machines and not engaged in the business of resale, lease, modification or alteration of computing equipment.  Galileo agrees that any transaction initiated under this AMO Agreement shall be binding upon Galileo’s successor and permitted assigns.”

18.                   TPF Utilization Credits.  Section 33 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “GDS Utilization Credits”, which was added by Amendment 3, is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“33.                                    TPF Utilization Credits

 

This AMO Agreement includes certain credits as described below, that may be earned by Galileo based on the sum of the fixed and variable MIPS capacity utilized within the TPF Complex.  These credits are defined below and entitled the “Fixed Capacity Credit” and the “Variable Capacity Credit” (collectively, the “TPF Utilization Credits”).

 

As used in this AMO Agreement:

 

1.               “TPF Utilization” means TPF System capacity utilization.

 

2.               “TPF Utilization Credit Year” means the Contract Year commencing on July 1, 2006 or any anniversary thereof.

 

3.               “Utilization Attainment” means the average capacity utilization of the TPF Complex over certain defined measurement periods, which may be a calendar month or a TPF Utilization Credit Year, (a “Measurement Period”).  Utilization Attainment will be determined by the TPFCVC Report, as described in Section 6, generated for the applicable Measurement Period.  Utilization Attainment will be measured in MIPS and computed as the average of each day’s Adjusted Peak Capacity Usage (as defined in Section 6).  The peak twenty-two (22) days for each month in the period being measured will be added together and averaged to derive the total for the applicable Measurement Period.  For a TPF Utilization Credit Year, the peak twenty-two (22) days for each of the twelve (12) months in the TPF Utilization Credit Year shall be added together and the sum divided by 264 to derive the Utilization Attainment for the TPF Utilization Credit Year.

 

IBM has no obligation to provide subsequent TPF Utilization Credits for TPF Utilization after June 30, 2013.

 

Unless otherwise agreed to by IBM, TPF Platform usage pursuant to this AMO Agreement shall not be considered eligible revenues for purposes of any other existing IBM revenue credit or rebate structures.

 

TPF Utilization Credits may be used toward future purchases of additional Products or Services by Galileo, directly from or through IBM, as confirmed in Transaction Documents (as defined in the ICA) executed by the Parties after June 30, 2006.  TPF Utilization Credits may not be applied against Monthly Payments existing as of the execution of Amendment 6 nor applied against future Lease or financing payments that the Parties agree to include in Monthly Payments.  Each such TPF Utilization Credit must be used within twenty-four (24) months of issuance, as confirmed by the Parties in an Order Letter.  Any such TPF Utilization Credit not used within twenty-four (24) months following issuance shall be forfeited.

 

Quarterly, IBM will provide to Galileo a report that will include a description of the TPF Utilization Credits then available to Galileo, including any that have accrued since the last such report, and a reconciliation of any such credits that have been used or expired since the last such report.  If there is any discrepancy in the Parties’ records regarding these credits, IBM and Galileo will work together in good faith to resolve the discrepancy.

 

Should Galileo fail to pay the Monthly Payment in accordance with the terms of the AMO Agreement, then Galileo agrees that IBM, in its sole discretion, may immediately withhold the aforementioned TPF Utilization Credits.  If Galileo has previously used such TPF Utilization Credits, then Galileo shall repay IBM an amount equal to such Fixed Utilization Credits upon receipt of an invoice from IBM.

 

TPF Utilization Credits are not financed by IBM Credit.

33.1                        Fixed Capacity Credits

 

Galileo will install the TPF Complex described in the Capacity Plan set forth in Exhibit B.  For each TPF Utilization Credit Year, IBM shall provide Galileo with a credit on account (“Fixed Capacity Credit”) as described below, but only if (and except for the TPF Utilization Credit Year commencing on July 1, 2006) the Travelport Enterprise has attained the Fixed Capacity Credit Objective for the immediately preceding TPF Utilization Credit Year.

 

The Fixed Capacity Credit Objective for each TPF Utilization Credit Year commencing prior to July 1, 2008 shall be Utilization Attainment of [**] MIPS.  The Fixed Capacity Credit Objective for each TPF Utilization Credit Year commencing on July 1, 2008 and each subsequent July 1 shall be Utilization Attainment of [**] MIPS.

 

The Parties agree that Fixed Utilization Credits for the TPF Utilization Credit Years commencing on July 1, 2006 and July 1, 2007 have been properly provided by IBM and that any portions of those Utilization Credits that have not been used by December 1, 2007 shall be forfeited.  For the TPF Utilization Credit Year commencing on July 1, 2008 and for each subsequent TPF Utilization Credit Year, provided that the Travelport Enterprise has attained the applicable Fixed Capacity Credit Objective for the immediately preceding TPF Utilization Credit Year, IBM shall provide Galileo with an additional credit on account in the amount of $[**] as of the beginning of the applicable TPF Utilization Credit Year.  Fixed Capacity Credits shall not be prorated for partial achievement of the Fixed Capacity Credit Objective.  Further, unearned Fixed Capacity Credits, if any, do not accumulate and may not be earned in subsequent TPF Utilization Credit Years.

 

Fixed Capacity Credits will be issued, via electronic mail, if earned, within sixty (60) days of the beginning of the applicable TPF Utilization Credit Year.  Usage reporting delays may result in a delay in issuing the Fixed Capacity Credit.

 

Fixed Capacity Credits are not financed by IBM Credit.

 

33.2                        Variable Capacity Credit

 

IBM will provide Galileo a “Variable Capacity Credit” [**], as further described in this subsection 33.2.

 

For clarity, Variable Capacity Credits will be paid for each day that Galileo uses Variable Capacity MIPS and pays the associated $[**] per MIPS per day [**] described in Section 6.  Such Variable Capacity Credits shall be determined monthly and shall be based upon the total [**] paid within such month.

 

For all such Variable Capacity MIPS usage, Galileo shall receive a Variable Capacity Credit of $[**] per MIPS, which will not be issued until after the associated [**] have been fully paid to IBM by Galileo.

 

Variable Capacity Utilization Attainment will be determined by the TPFCVC Report (as defined in Section 6).

 

Variable Capacity Credits will be issued monthly, via electronic mail, within sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable month.  Usage reporting delays may result in a delay in issuing the Variable Capacity Credit.

 

Variable Capacity Credits are not financed by IBM Credit.

 

19.                               Additional Agreements.  Section 34 of the AMO Agreement, entitled “Additional Agreements”, which was added by Amendment 5, is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

The following allotments for Programs and Services are included in this AMO Agreement:

 

35.1            Software Monthly License Charge Program Allotment for non-TPF Programs (the “MLC Allotment”)

 

For avoidance of doubt, Amendment 6 to the WSSO referenced in Section 34 (item 1) provides for the charges for IBM MLC Programs for the period from October 1, 2007 through June 30, 2011.

 

From July 1, 2011 through the end of the term of this AMO Agreement, the Monthly Payment includes an allotment, which is not financed by IBM Credit, to be applied to monthly charges and reinstatement fees due IBM for IBM Programs (other than those that constitute “Eligible Programs” for purposes of the Enterprise Software Option Agreement referenced in Section 3) that are generally licensed by IBM for a monthly license charge (“MLC Programs”).  This allotment will be referred to as the “MLC Allotment.”

 

The amount of the MLC Allotment for each of the periods shown below is set forth in the following table:

 

Period                               

 

Amount

 

7/01/11 – 6/30/12

Total

 

$          [**]

 

 

The MLC Allotment may be applied by Galileo against any IBM invoice for IBM MLC Programs.  All MLC Programs acquired under this subsection 35.1 will be acquired at the then current fair values for such MLC Programs or in accordance with any other agreements that may currently be in

 

10



 

effect between IBM and the Travelport Enterprise at the time of the transaction, and such acquisition of MLC Programs and use of this MLC Allotment shall be confirmed by an Order Letter.

 

Commencing on July 1, 2011, IBM will perform a reconciliation annually to compare the MLC Allotment to the actual charges due IBM for the MLC Programs.  If, for either Contract Year identified in the table above, the amount of the actual charges due IBM for the MLC Programs is greater or less than the MLC Allotment amount shown in the table, then (i) if the amount of the actual charges due IBM is greater than the MLC Allotment amount, Galileo shall pay the difference to IBM, and (ii) if the MLC Allotment amount is greater than the amount of the actual charges due IBM, IBM shall give Galileo a credit equal to the difference for the prior year.  In the event of the expiration or termination of this AMO Agreement, [**] percent ([**]%) of any unused MLC Allotment on the date of expiration or termination will be retained by IBM and the remaining amount (for clarity, [**] ([**]%) of the remaining unused MLC Allotment) shall be refunded to Galileo.

 

If the Parties execute a separate agreement that includes MLC Programs, the Parties may amend this subsection 35.1 such that the separate agreement will amend or supersede the provisions of this subsection 35.1.

To help the Travelport Enterprise respond to or otherwise address its business requirements relating to operational efficiencies and technology innovation in its business, IBM agrees to meet and confer with the Travelport Enterprise on an annual basis to review such items and explore opportunities for the Travelport Enterprise to accomplish organizational efficiencies and improvements, while also aiming to reduce the Travelport Enterprise’s associated costs.  During this annual review, IBM will present innovative solution alternatives relating to Machines, software, and/or services solutions that, if implemented by the Travelport Enterprise, would present the Travelport Enterprise with an opportunity to benefit by a minimum of $[**] in annual savings to the Travelport Enterprise.  IBM and Galileo intend that this annual review will take place in a single meeting, ideally concluded in the first calendar quarter of each year, and will include the participation of the Travelport Enterprise’s CTO.”

 

27.                   Adjustments to Monthly Payments.  The AMO Agreement is amended by adding after Section 43 thereof a new Section 44 to read as follows:

 

“44.                        Adjustments to Monthly Payments

 

The purpose of this Section 44 is to describe certain adjustments to the Monthly Payments if the date upon which the migration from the Travelport Enterprise data center in Denver, Colorado to the Travelport Enterprise data center in Atlanta, Georgia of the processing currently being performed by IBM pursuant to the ITSA (the “Migration”) is complete and the ITSA, including the payments due to IBM thereunder, is terminated (the “ITSA End Date”, which will be the same as the “End Date” defined in the Termination Letter Agreement, effective as of December 31, 2007, between IBM and TP Operations) is earlier or later than assumed for various purposes.

 

(a)          In order to adjust for the respective amounts payable to IBM pursuant to the ITSA and pursuant to this AMO Agreement if the ITSA End Date is earlier or later than [**], which is the date assumed for purposes of the Monthly Payments set forth on Exhibit A, the Parties agree as follows:

 

(1)          If the ITSA End Date occurs on or after [**] but before [**], then the Monthly Payment for [**] will be increased by $[**].

 

(2)          If the ITSA End Date occurs on or after [**] but before [**], then the Monthly Payment for [**] will be increased by $[**].

 

19



 

(3)          If the ITSA End Date occurs after [**] but on or before [**], then the Monthly Payment for [**] will be reduced by $[**].

 

(4)          If the ITSA End Date occurs after [**] but on or before [**], then the Monthly Payment for [**] will be reduced by $[**].

 

(5)          If the ITSA End Date occurs before [**] or after [**], then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon an equitable adjustment to the Monthly Payments to appropriately reflect that change in the ITSA Termination Date.

 

(b)         In order to provide an incentive for the ITSA End Date to be achieved earlier than, and a disincentive for the ITSA End Date to be achieved later than, the target date of [**] mutually anticipated by IBM and TP Operations as of December 28, 2007 the Parties agree as follows:

 

(1)          If the ITSA End Date occurs on or before [**], then the Monthly Payment for [**] will be increased by $[**].

 

(2)          If the ITSA End Date occurs on or after [**], then IBM will issue a credit in the amount of  $[**], which is not financed by IBM Credit, with such credit to be applied by Galileo against charges directly from or through IBM, as confirmed in a Transaction Document (as defined in the ICA).  If this credit has not been fully applied by Galileo by [**], then Galileo may request that IBM pay any remaining amount of the credit by check and IBM will promptly issue a check to Galileo for the remaining amount of the credit.

 

IBM and Galileo will monitor the status of the Migration and will meet in [**] to mutually evaluate the likelihood of the ITSA End Date occurring earlier or later than the target date.  If either one of these Parties believes that the ITSA End Date will occur earlier or later than the target date for reasons that are not within the reasonable control of that Party, then that Party may eliminate the provisions of this subsection (b) by giving the other written notice thereof.”

 

28.                   Additional Provisions for Lease Assumptions Pursuant to ITSA The AMO Agreement is amended by adding after Section 44 thereof a new Section 45 to read as follows:

 

“45.                        Additional Provisions for Lease Assumptions Pursuant to ITSA

 

The ITSA provides that upon termination of the ITSA, Travelport Operations, Inc. (“TP Operations”) will assume all Lease obligations for Machines subject to the TLA, and the following amounts have been included in the Monthly Payments to satisfy TP Operations’s Lease obligations:

 

(a)          $[**], which is TP Operations’s payment obligation for the non-System z Machine inventory that will remain with TP Operations based on the Machine inventory (the “Assumed Machine Inventory”) attached as Attachment A to the Termination Letter Agreement entered into by TP Operations and IBM contemporaneously with the execution of Amendment 6 to this AMO Agreement; and

 

(b)         $[**], which is TP Operations’s payment obligation for the System z Machines Serial Numbers: [**] that TP Operations has agreed to return to IBM at the ITSA Termination Date.  The Leases for these System z Machines will be terminated, and the Machines will be returned to IBM Credit, within thirty (30) days after the ITSA Termination Date.  An early termination credit of [**] has been included in the calculation of the Monthly Payments to provided for the early termination of these Leases and the early return of these Machines.

 

20



 

The foregoing amounts have been calculated using a [**] ITSA End Date, but will not change if the ITSA End Date is earlier or later than that date, since Section 44 provides for appropriate adjustments to be made to the Monthly Payments in order to adjust for an earlier or later ITSA End Date.

 

Prior to the ITSA End Date, IBM and the Travelport Enterprise will mutually perform an inventory reconciliation to compare the Assumed Machine Inventory to the actual inventory of Machines for which TP Operations has Lease assumption obligations pursuant to the ITSA (the “Actual Machine Inventory”).  If the charges for Lease obligations for the Actual Machine Inventory differs from the amount included in the Monthly Payments, as set forth above, then a corresponding change (increase or decrease) will be made to the Monthly Payments, as confirmed by the Parties in an Order Letter.  Disposition of the title of the non-System z Machines will be determined by the type of Lease for each such Machine.  In the event that TP Operations wishes to acquire title to a Machine that is to be returned to IBM, the Parties will negotiate a mutually agreeable price for such transactions.”
