[personal address]
Dear Mike:
On behalf of Orbitz Worldwide, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, (“Orbitz
Worldwide”) I am pleased to confirm our offer of the position as Chief Financial
Officer, reporting to Barney Harford, CEO. Your first day of employment will be
March 11, 2013, and your annual base salary initially will be $360,000 and will
be paid at such payroll frequency as applies to other similarly-situated
executives. This offer is contingent upon satisfactory employment and education
verification, verification of your U.S. employment eligibility, and execution of
the Orbitz Restrictive Covenant Agreement (Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation,
Non-Competition).
The Company acknowledges that your agreement to accept the position of Chief
Financial Officer under this offer letter is confidential and may not be
disclosed or made public before February 25, 2013, and that any such premature
disclosure could cause you material financial harm.
You will be eligible to participate in the Company's annual incentive bonus plan
(the “Bonus Plan”) provided that you are actively employed by and in good
standing with the Company and subject to the other terms, conditions and
eligibility requirements of the Bonus Plan. Your target bonus percentage for
purposes of the Bonus Plan will be 75% of your eligible earnings (as defined in
the Bonus Plan). Bonus payments under the Bonus Plan are determined based on
your target bonus percentage and eligible earnings during the relevant plan
period, as well as the achievement of company financial objectives and
individual performance, subject to such other terms, conditions and criteria as
the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Orbitz
Worldwide, Inc. Board of Directors may determine in its sole discretion.
Sign-On Bonus
You will receive a one-time bonus of $100,000, less applicable taxes, payable on
the first pay date following your date of employment.  In the event you
voluntarily resign employment or are terminated for cause within one year of
your start date, you agree to repay the full amount of the bonus to the Company.
Restricted Stock Units
A recommendation will be made by management to the Compensation Committee to
approve at the Compensation Committee's next meeting a new hire equity grant
consisting of 450,000 restricted stock units (“RSU”s). All grants of equity
awards are subject to approval by the Compensation Committee in its sole
discretion. Subject to such terms and conditions of the award agreement and your
continued employment, these RSUs will vest in four equal tranches on the first,
second, third and fourth anniversary dates of the grant date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Compensation Committee has considered and approved the terms
of this offer letter, including the compensation and benefits provided herein,
and management anticipates that the Compensation Committee will approve this new
hire award of RSUs.
Perquisites
While you are employed by the Company, you will be entitled to Company-paid
perquisites such as gym membership and a parking space in or near our offices
located at 500 W. Madison Street, Chicago, IL, 60661. All perquisites will be
paid on your behalf by the Company and will be included in your W-2 taxable
income on an annual basis subject to applicable withholding for taxes, which
shall be your sole responsibility.
Legal Fees
The Company shall reimburse you for up to $10,000 of reasonable legal fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the review of this offer letter and related
agreements, provided that proper documentation is submitted to the Company. To
the extent that

1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

any reimbursement of legal fees and expenses is taxable to you, such
reimbursement will be included in your W-2 taxable income subject to applicable
withholding for taxes, which shall be your sole responsibility.
Relocation and Moving Expenses
The Company shall reimburse you for reasonable moving expenses incurred by you
and your family during your relocation from your primary residence to the
Company's headquarters, such reimbursement to be in accordance with the
Company's relocation policy, as described in the Attachment; provided,

all or any part of the $30,000 described in the Attachment under “Home
Purchasing Closing Costs” to pay commission expenses to a real estate broker
with respect to the sale of your current residence, but the total amount of
reimbursements under this section with respect the purchase of your new house
and the sale of your current house may not exceed $30,000. Should you
voluntarily resign or be terminated for cause within twelve months of the
effective date of your relocation, you will be required to repay 100% of the
relocation costs.
Severance
Should your employment be involuntarily terminated by the Company, such that you
incur a separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated
thereunder (“Section 409A”)) other than for “Cause” (as defined below), you will
be eligible to receive the following severance benefits:

which your employment terminates;

•

the date of grant); and, to the extent such awards are exempt from Section 409A
or Section 409A permits, acceleration of the payment of such awards to the same
payment date as prescribed for the lump sum cash payments immediately above or
such earlier date as prescribed under the terms of such awards; and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

situated active employees; provided that such benefits shall be taxable to you
to the extent advisable under Section 105(h) of the Code.
Notwithstanding any other provision under this agreement, in the event that the
amount of payments or other benefits payable to you under this agreement,
together with any payments or benefits payable under any other plan, program,
arrangement or agreement maintained by the Company or one of its affiliates,
would constitute an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section
280G of the Code), the payments under this agreement shall be either (a)
provided in full pursuant to the terms of this agreement or any other applicable
agreement, or (b) reduced in a manner determined by the Company (by the minimum
possible amounts) until no amount payable to you under this agreement
constitutes an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of
the Code), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the
applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment and other taxes
including any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (including without
limitation, any interest or penalties on such taxes), results in your receipt,
on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of payments and benefits provided
for hereunder or otherwise.
Except to the extent provided in any equity award agreements, to be entitled to
the benefits under this agreement, you must agree to be bound by the terms and
conditions outlined herein, including all restrictions applicable to you, which
includes the execution of a general release waiving all claims against the
Company, which release will be provided to you not later than 7 days after the
date your employment terminates (i.e., in sufficient time to allow you to review
and execute the release, and for any revocation period to expire), so that such
benefits (other than the COBRA subsidy) can be paid to you by the short-term
deferral deadline referred to in the following paragraph.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all payments and
benefits described in this agreement that are not otherwise exempt from Section
409A shall be fully paid no later than the short-term deferral deadline set
forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth herein, in the event that any change to this agreement or
any additional terms are required to comply with Section 409A (or an exemption
therefrom), you hereby agree that the Company may make such change or
incorporate such terms (by reference or otherwise) without your consent. To the
extent (i) any payments to which you become entitled under this agreement, or
any agreement or plan referenced herein, in connection with your termination of
employment with the Company constitute deferred compensation subject to Section
409A and (ii) you are deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be
a “specified” employee under Section 409A, then such payment or payments shall
not be made or commence until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six
(6)-month period measured from the date of your “separation from service” (as
such term is at the time defined in Treasury Regulations under Section 409A with
the Company; or (ii) the date of your death following such separation from
service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the
extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to you, including (without
limitation) the additional twenty percent (20%) tax for which you would
otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code in the absence of
such deferral. Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, any
payments which would have otherwise been made during that period (whether in a
single sum or in installments) in the absence of this paragraph shall be paid to
you or your beneficiary, as applicable, in one lump sum. For purposes of this
agreement, no payment that is subject to (and not exempt from) Section 409A will
be made to you upon termination of your employment if such termination does not
constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and
Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations thereunder, in which case any
such payment will be made at the time you do undergo a “separation from
service.”
Any expenses reimbursable under this offer letter and/or any policy of the
Company must be incurred between the date this letter is executed and the date
your employment is terminated. To obtain reimbursement, you must promptly submit
receipts and other information the Company may reasonably request to support the
reimbursement request within 60 days after the expense is incurred.  The Company
shall tender any such reimbursement payment to you within 30 days following the
Company's receipt of the reimbursement request and acceptable accompanying
documentation of expenses.  No such expenses eligible for reimbursement or
in-kind benefits, which are provided to you during a calendar year and which are
not exempt from Section 409A, will affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year. 
As described above, the reimbursement of any such Section 409A non-exempt
expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following
the calendar year in which the expense was incurred.  The right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another
benefit.
