                     Article III -- Services and Exclusivity

3.1  SERVICES IN GENERAL. Pursuant to this Agreement, TSG shall perform the TSG
Services for the Airline Group.

                                                                          Page 4


<PAGE>

3.2  ACCESS TO AND USE OF FACILITIES. The Airline Group shall provide such
access to the Airline Group's facilities as is necessary to enable TSG to
perform its obligations under this Agreement. The Parties agree and
acknowledge that any such rights of access granted to TSG: (i) for any
airport locations, shall take into account Airport Regulations; and (ii) for
any Airline Group leased facilities, shall take into account any applicable
lease restrictions. Usage of the other Party's facility will be measured by
aggregating the usage of all of a Party's employees at the facility. Should a
Party believe that allocation measured by employee instead of by usage is not
accurately reflecting value, such Party may propose an alternative
measurement method and the Parties will discuss adopting such alternative on
either a broad or case-by-case basis.

                  A. If a TSG employee is occupying space in an Airline Group
facility at AMERICAN's request and primarily for the Airline Group's
convenience, then AMERICAN will not charge TSG for any facility rent or other
commercially reasonable expenses related to such TSG employee, but TSG shall be
responsible for all significant out of pocket expenses of the Airline Group
incurred because of the presence of such TSG employee, including Device Support
and Voice Network Services. Except that, if a TSG employee is occupying space at
AMERICAN's System Operations Control Center or at AMERICAN's Capacity Planning
Department, then AMERICAN will charge TSG the same amount for rent that a TSG
employee would incur if occupying space at the Solana facility and TSG shall be
responsible for all significant out of pocket expenses of the Airline Group
incurred because of the presence of such TSG employee, including Device Support
and Voice Network Services.

                  B. If TSG is occupying space in an Airline Group facility and
provides TSG Services to TSG or to other TSG Customers from that space, TSG will
provide AMERICAN with a credit against Fees payable in an amount equal to TSG's
pro rata share of facility rent and other commercially reasonable expenses; to
be calculated by the amount that AMERICAN would otherwise have charged TSG for
TSG's use of such space multiplied by the ratio calculated as the amount of time
TSG uses such space to provide services to TSG or to other TSG Customers over
TSG's total use (time) of such space. AMERICAN will provide TSG its good faith
estimate of the facility rent and other expenses attributable to usage of such
space. This will be calculated by determining the square footage of the space
allocated to TSG multiplied by the rent per square foot for the facility in
which the space is located plus other commercially reasonable expenses
attributable to usage of such space. Additionally, TSG shall be responsible for
all significant out-of-pocket expenses of the Airline Group incurred because of
the presence of such TSG employee, including Device Support and Voice Network
Services.

                  C. If an Airline Group employee is occupying space in a TSG
facility at TSG's request and primarily for TSG's convenience, then TSG will
not charge AMERICAN for any facility rent or other commercially reasonable
expenses related to such Airline Group employee, but AMERICAN shall be
responsible for all significant out-of-pocket expenses of TSG incurred
because of the presence of such Airline Group employee, including Device
Support and Voice Network Services.

                  D. If the Airline Group is occupying space in a TSG facility
other than pursuant to Subsection C above, then TSG will charge AMERICAN for a
pro rata share of facility rent and other commercially reasonable expenses to be
calculated by the amount that TSG would


                                                                          Page 5


<PAGE>

otherwise have charged AMERICAN for the Airline Group's use of such space
multiplied by one (1) minus the ratio calculated as the amount of time the
Airline Group uses such space as set forth in Subsection C over the Airline
Group's total use (time) of such space. This will be calculated by
determining the square footage of the space allocated to the Airline Group
multiplied by the rent per square foot for the facility in which the space is
located. Additionally, AMERICAN shall be responsible for all significant
out-of-pocket expenses of TSG incurred because of the presence of such
Airline Group employee at a TSG facility, including Device Support and Voice
Network Services.

                  E. If TSG is occupying space in an Airline Group facility
other than pursuant to Subsection A above, then the Airline Group will charge
TSG for a pro rata share of facility rent and other commercially reasonable
expenses to be calculated by the amount that the Airline Group would
otherwise have charged TSG for TSG's use of such space multiplied by one (1)
minus the ratio calculated as the amount of time TSG uses such space as set
forth in Subsection A over TSG's total use (time) of such space. This will be
calculated by determining the square footage of the space allocated to TSG
multiplied by the rent per square foot for the facility in which the space is
located. Additionally, TSG will be responsible for all significant
out-of-pocket expenses of the Airline Group incurred because of the presence
of such TSG employee at an Airline Group facility, including Device Support
and Voice Network Services.

                  F. Where one Party's employees are occupying space at the
other Party's facilities, both Parties intend that their employees usage of the
other Party's LAN will be approximately equal. If the Airline Group's usage of
TSG's LAN significantly exceeds TSG's usage of the Airline Group's LAN or TSG's
usage of the Airline Group's LAN significantly exceeds the Airline Group's usage
of TSG's LAN, the Account Managers shall meet to negotiate what, if any,
compensation or remedial action is appropriate.

                  G. If a TSG employee is providing AMERICAN TSG Services at a
facility of a different TSG Customer, TSG will charge AMERICAN its pro rata
portion of the facility rent and other commercially reasonable expenses paid by
TSG for use of such facility. Such allocation will be calculated in a manner
similar to that set forth in Subsection B above. Such amount will be equal to
the amount TSG would have incurred if TSG occupied comparable space in a similar
Airline Group facility. Additionally, TSG shall be responsible for its pro rata
portion of all significant out-of-pocket expenses of TSG incurred because of the
presence of such TSG employee, including Device Support and Voice Network
Services.

                  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

3.3  NEW/OUT-OF-SCOPE SERVICES. When TSG and AMERICAN expressly agree in
writing, TSG shall perform a New/Out-of-scope Service. Subject to any special
or unique terms regarding such New/Out-of-scope Service agreed upon by the
Parties in writing, any New/Out-of-scope Services agreed upon by the Parties
shall be considered TSG Services for purposes of this Agreement.
                                                                          Page 6


<PAGE>

3.4  TSG'S RIGHTS TO MANAGE ITS RESOURCES. Subject to the other provisions of
this Agreement, including Article V - Service Levels, Article XVI -- Key
Employees and Related Provisions and Exhibit E, and consistent with Section
"4.1, TSG'S CHANGES TO LOCATIONS," TSG shall have the right, at TSG's cost and
expense, so long as there is no Material Adverse Impact, to manage all resources
used in providing the TSG Services as TSG deems appropriate, including
relocating data centers, TSG equipment, TSG personnel, and other TSG resources.
Nevertheless, if any such relocation effected with the reasonable belief that it
would not have any Material Adverse Impact actually has a Material Adverse
Impact, TSG shall reimburse AMERICAN for any increase in the Fees, any more than
a DE MINIMIS increase in an expense incurred by the Airline Group, and any
increase in the Taxes payable by an Airline Group member.

3.5  KEEPING PLATFORM TECHNOLOGY CURRENT.

                  A. TSG agrees to use reasonable efforts to keep the
Platform Technology that TSG uses to provide the TSG Services to the Airline
Group at a level current with the Platform Technology that TSG implements for
its general internal operations and on behalf of its Air Carrier customers
generally, and at a level at least comparable to the level of Platform
Technology generally adopted from time to time in the air transportation
industry for provision of similar services. In addition, TSG agrees to use
reasonable efforts, at its own expense, to keep knowledgeable about changes
and advancements over time in the technology necessary to provide the TSG
Services.

                  B. Except as provided in Section "3.6, SHARED ENVIRONMENT
UPGRADES" and Section "3.8, REFRESH FOR DEVICE SUPPORT," in the event that
Platform Technology improvements would cause TSG to incur costs in addition
to the costs TSG would otherwise have incurred in providing the TSG Services,
or would cause the Airline Group to incur costs it would not otherwise incur,
AMERICAN and TSG shall meet to discuss whether to implement such
improvements. At AMERICAN'S sole option, TSG will (i) implement such Platform
Technology improvements and charge the Airline Group increased Fees, or (ii)
not implement such Platform Technology improvements and continue to use TSG's
then-existing Platform Technology.

                  C. In the event that AMERICAN elects not to implement
Platform Technology improvements under Subsection B, affected SLAs, if any,
will be appropriately adjusted and Fees will be appropriately adjusted on a
cost plus margin basis as specified in Exhibit C: Rate and Reset Schedule,
consistent with the margin TSG received for the applicable TSG Service prior
to the choice not to implement such Platform Technology improvements to
reflect provision of such services using non-improved Platform Technology on
the Airline Group's behalf.

                  D. To the extent that improvements to the Platform
Technology result in the incorporation of new features or functionality that
were not requested by the Airline Group or previously provided by TSG, TSG
will not, without the Airline Group's consent, (i) charge the Airline Group
Fees for such new features or functionality, or (ii) implement such features
or functionality on behalf of the Airline Group if such implementation would
result in additional costs to the Airline Group.
                                                                          Page 7


<PAGE>
                  E. Nothing in this Section 3.5 shall be construed as
relieving TSG of its obligation to provide, at no additional Fees to the
Airline Group, installation, support, and upgrades to the most current
version of the software identified in the "TSG Commercial Software Product
List" in Exhibit B: TSG Services Description, so long as any such upgrades
are compatible with the then-current Platform Technology.

3.6  SHARED ENVIRONMENT UPGRADES. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, the Current Rates will not increase if TSG upgrades the Shared
Environment it uses to provide the TSG Services. AMERICAN shall pay an increase
in Fees that would otherwise result from an upgrade only to the extent that such
increase in AMERICAN's Fees is commensurate with the benefits of such upgrade to
the Airline Group attainable in the reasonably foreseeable future, as determined
by AMERICAN in its reasonable, good faith judgment.

3.7  EFFICIENCY AND COST EFFECTIVENESS. TSG shall use commercially reasonable
efforts, consistent with TSG's obligations under Article V - Service Levels, to
use efficiently those resources chargeable to AMERICAN, and in so doing will (i)
consider the Airline Group's needs, (ii) make schedule adjustments consistent
with the Airline Group's priorities, and (iii) consider the needs of TSG's other
contractual commitments. TSG may delay the performance of non-critical functions
within established limits.

3.8  REFRESH FOR DEVICE SUPPORT. The Airline Group shall receive, at AMERICAN's
expense, the benefits of upgrades to Off-the-shelf Software included within
Device Support as soon as reasonably practicable and on a schedule reasonably
contemporaneous with the deployment schedule for other MFC Customers, but in any
event within twelve (12) months of such upgrades becoming commercially available
or when TSG implements such upgrades in production (which does not include any
beta testing) for its own employees, whichever is sooner. The cost of such
upgrades, including installation and license fees, shall be borne solely by
AMERICAN, and the Parties shall mutually agree on the price of such work
described in this Section 3.8.

                  A. AMERICAN agrees to provide TSG with at least six (6) months
Notice of non-renewal of Device Support in accordance with Section "2.3,
EXTENSIONS OF THE TERM."

                  B. AMERICAN's Notice of non-renewal shall not affect the
rights of the Airline Group under this Section 3.8 for the remainder of the term
of the Distributed Systems Services.

                  C. If the Airline Group declines to permit TSG to install an
upgrade to software necessary to provide Device Support and the Airline Group is
the only Device Support customer of TSG to decline, and such declining causes
TSG increased costs, AMERICAN shall reimburse TSG for such costs.

3.9  TSG SUPPORT FOR THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS. TSG shall arrange for and manage
Third-party Standard Support for Third-party Supported Products. TSG and
AMERICAN acknowledge that such products require TSG to obtain support services
from certain third-party
                                                                          Page 8


<PAGE>

vendors, and that TSG's ability to provide any support to the Airline Group for
such products may be impaired if TSG is unable to obtain the required support
from such third-party vendors.

                  A. When TSG learns that any Third-party Supported Product is
an Unsupported Product, TSG shall, at TSG's expense:

                           (1) Immediately give AMERICAN Notice;

                           (2) Discuss with AMERICAN the options available; and

                           (3) At AMERICAN's sole option TSG will:

                                    a.  Use reasonable efforts to obtain a
replacement product for such Unsupported Product within twelve (12) months of
notification to AMERICAN pursuant to Subsection A(1) of this Section 3.9;

                                    b. Use reasonable efforts to obtain services
to substitute for Third-party Standard Support for such Unsupported Product,
provided that TSG and AMERICAN negotiate new SLA Standards for such Unsupported
Product, if necessary; or

                                    c. Discontinue attempting to obtain services
to substitute for Third-party Standard Support of such Unsupported Product after
the first anniversary of Notice to AMERICAN pursuant to Subsection A(1) of this
Section 3.9 or upon mutual agreement of the parties if prior to the first
anniversary of Notice.

                  B. TSG and the Airline Group shall use reasonable efforts to
minimize any costs required to transfer the Airline Group to a replacement
product. If the Airline Group adopts, implements or continues to use an
Unsupported Product, AMERICAN shall pay TSG the incremental costs incurred by
TSG to provide, support or maintain such Unsupported Product, whether by TSG or
through a third-party service provider retained by TSG.

3.10  EXCLUSIVITY. Subject to Section "2.1, TERM OF AGREEMENT," TSG is the
exclusive provider to the Airline Group of certain services as described in this
Section 3.10.

                  A.  TSG is the exclusive provider of the following services:

                         [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                                                                          Page 9

3.12     ENGAGING THIRD PARTIES FOR NON-EXCLUSIVE SERVICES.

                  A. If AMERICAN or any American Related Entity solicits offers
from any third party to provide Non-exclusive Services, AMERICAN or any
American Related Entity is not obligated to offer TSG the opportunity to
provide such Non-exclusive Services if such solicitation is made to only one
Person. If, however, any such solicitation for the provision of Non-exclusive
Services is made to more than one Person, then TSG shall have the opportunity
to Compete with third parties in any such bidding, except that AMERICAN or an
American Related Entity is not obligated to accept TSG's offer or grant TSG
any preferential treatment.

                  B. AMERICAN or an American Related Entity may use third
parties pursuant to Section "5.11, AUDITING CODE EFFICIENCY," subject to
compliance with Section "14.8, CONFIDENTIALITY AND THIRD PARTIES."

3.13 EFFECT OF DIVESTITURES, MERGERS, AND ACQUISITIONS. In the event of the
creation of one or more Spin-off Companies or Affiliated Spin-off Entities,
then, as among the remaining Airline Group and all such Spin-off Companies, the
largest of such entities (as measured by reference to processing volumes) will
be subject to this Agreement. Each of the other entities will be permitted to
elect whether or not to remain subject to this Agreement or to execute a
substantially identical, separate agreement. For the purposes of determining
applicable unit pricing under such substantially identical, separate agreements
for such entities or for such entities that remain subject to the Agreement or
for any purposes under this Agreement where volumes are used, the volumes of all
such entities that remain subject to the agreement or to a substantially
identical, separate agreement will be aggregated. However, TSG will have the
right to levy additional reasonable Fees commensurate with actual, verifiable
costs associated with

                                                                         Page 12

<PAGE>

servicing these multiple entities. Any Wind-down Costs to TSG as the result
of the creation of a Spin-off Company or Affiliated Spin-off Entity shall be
borne and paid by AMERICAN or such of the entities as AMERICAN may designate.
Except as provided in the first sentence of this Section 3.13, any entity
which is spun off from AMERICAN may elect not to be subject to this
Agreement, or such entity may elect solely to utilize "lower-level"
applications rather than the full suite of TSG products. AMERICAN recognizes
that any such election may affect volume-based pricing for the other entity
or entities following the same principles set forth herein for internal
growth or shrinkage.

                  A. If AMERICAN or an American Related Entity acquires another
Air Carrier and merges its airline operations with such other Air Carrier, then
such Air Carrier's information technology operations shall, subject to the
specific restrictions herein, possess all the rights and benefits and be subject
to all of the obligations of AMERICAN or an American Related Entity under this
Agreement on a date agreed to in writing by AMERICAN and TSG, and in any event
as soon as reasonably practicable in light of the commercial circumstances,
including the duration of such carrier's existing commitments and the extent of
any termination penalties.

                  B. If AMERICAN or an American Related Entity acquires another
Air Carrier and does not merge its airline operations with such other Air
Carrier, then, subject to the specific restrictions herein, such Air Carrier's
information technology operations shall become subject to this Agreement at
AMERICAN's sole discretion, subject to Subsection C below.

                  C. If AMERICAN or an American Related Entity acquires any
entity (including another Air Carrier) or otherwise undergoes an Acquisition,
AMERICAN may cause the information technology services of such entity to
become subject to this Agreement upon Notice to TSG; so long as TSG is given
a reasonable period of time in which to transfer such entity's information
technology operations and services to TSG. In such event, TSG shall provide
TSG Services to the entity at the Current Rates; except that if TSG incurs
reasonable, necessary, and Extraordinary Costs for establishing TSG's ability
to provide TSG Services to such entity and such costs will result in a lower
profit margin to TSG than would have occurred if the additional volume or
services were provided for the Airline Group's own use with the then current
TSG facilities, AMERICAN shall reimburse TSG for such costs; but only if TSG
has given AMERICAN Notice in advance of incurring such costs. Any entity
resulting from an Acquisition who elects to receive TSG Services using
Transferred Software and/or Jointly Owned Software, and TSG is the processor
of substantially all of the volume of services for those applications, will
not be assessed a license fee to use such Transferred Software and/or Jointly
Owned Software. For the purposes of the previous sentence, if the entities
constituting the Airline Group prior to such event continue to operate as a
stand-alone entity separate from any other affiliated airline, then the
"substantially all" test shall be applied independently to the Airline Group
and each other separate entity resulting from such Acquisition.

3.14 CHANGES IN DEMAND FOR TSG SERVICES. AMERICAN or any member of the Airline
Group (a) shall inform TSG within a reasonable time in advance of material
changes in the Airline Group's requirements for TSG Services to enable TSG to
adjust its resources and (b) acknowledges that its failure to so inform TSG may
temporarily impact service levels or necessitate revisions to SLAs. The Parties
acknowledge that changes in the Airline Group's

                                                                         Page 13



<PAGE>

requirements because of unforeseen circumstances, such as a labor strike
against AMERICAN, may not be communicated in advance; but AMERICAN or the
affected member of the Airline Group shall inform TSG of such material
changes as soon as possible and shall periodically provide TSG updated
information as to such material changes.

3.15 PREFERRED CUSTOMER FOR DEPLOYMENT OF SKILLED PERSONNEL. TSG shall provide
necessary, skilled personnel to staff any and all Airline Group projects for
services that TSG provides under this Agreement. If AMERICAN fails to give
Notice of relevant material changes in the Airline Group's requirements for
TSG's personnel, then TSG's obligation to comply with such change shall not
apply for a reasonable period of time until TSG can supply different or
additional personnel.

3.16     SPECIAL  PROVISIONS  FOR  RESERVATIONS  800  SERVICES.  TSG shall
manage Reservations 800 Services in accordance with this Section 3.16.

                  A. TSG shall promptly provide AMERICAN with a copy of all
information from prospective vendors of the Reservations 800 Services, including
vendor-related performance and proposal information.

                  B. AMERICAN may participate with TSG in all negotiations with
such prospective vendors.

                  C. AMERICAN, in its sole discretion, shall make all final
decisions concerning the selection of vendors for providing Reservations 800
Services; except that, if AMERICAN does not follow TSG's recommendations
concerning Reservations 800 Services, AMERICAN and TSG agree to amend the SLA
Standards applicable to the Reservations 800 Services, as appropriate.

                  D. If AMERICAN, after consultation with TSG, decides that any
member of the Airline Group can perform 800 Decision Tree Support more
efficiently than TSG, such services shall cease to be TSG Services, and the
Airline Group member shall perform 800 Decision Tree Support for itself.
AMERICAN's election to perform 800 Decision Tree Support shall not change the
Parties' other rights or obligations under this Section 3.16.

3.17 SPECIAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING SITA AND SITA SERVICES. The Parties'
arrangement regarding SITA Services and the SITA Agreements is set forth in this
Section 3.17.

                  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                  B. Although AMERICAN shall remain the contracting party under
the SITA Agreements until they are assigned to TSG, TSG shall have all of the
rights and benefits and all of

                                                                         Page 14



<PAGE>

the obligations and burdens under the SITA Agreements as if AMERICAN had
assigned to TSG, and TSG had assumed, the SITA Agreements as of July 1, 1996.

                           (1) Those rights and benefits shall include the right
of TSG to cause AMERICAN to purchase for TSG's own use and for the use of
TSG's customers all services provided by the SITA Group pursuant to the SITA
Agreements. Accordingly, AMERICAN hereby authorizes TSG to purchase as
AMERICAN's agent, on the Airline Group's behalf and on behalf of TSG and its
other customers, the SITA Services. TSG and AMERICAN agree that charges for
the SITA Services shall be invoiced to AMERICAN and paid by TSG to AMERICAN
and that, with respect to the SITA SABREnet Services, the special payment and
other terms provided in Exhibit H: SITA Relationship shall apply.

                           (2) Those obligations and burdens, which TSG hereby
accepts and agrees to perform, shall include the obligation to meet all of
the commitments and obligations, financial and otherwise, that AMERICAN may
incur under the SITA Agreements (other than obligations related to the SITA
Services consumed by AMERICAN and its Affiliates other than TSG and its
subsidiaries, except for any amount paid by AMERICAN and its Affiliates to
TSG for SITA Services consumed by AMERICAN and its Affiliates other than TSG
and its subsidiaries), including the obligations of payment (including any
fees, penalties, or interest for late payment or nonpayment), indemnification
obligations, and commitments to meet the financial minimums under the SITA
Agreements.

                           (3) As long as AMERICAN remains responsible to SITA
as the contracting party under the SITA Agreements, TSG shall purchase through
AMERICAN at least the minimum volume of telecommunications services offered by
the SITA Group that AMERICAN is obligated to purchase from the SITA Group
pursuant to the SITA Agreements. The Parties' rights and obligations stated
above in this Section 3.17 shall terminate upon AMERICAN's assignment to TSG,
and TSG's assumption, of the SITA Agreements.

                  C. Because AMERICAN will remain, on or after the Effective
Date, the contracting party under the SITA Agreements, and therefore responsible
to the SITA Group thereunder, AMERICAN shall have the benefit of the
indemnification set forth in Section "20.8, SITA INDEMNIFICATION."

                  D. In accordance with the Stock Agreement, TSG has the right
to designate a representative on the SITA Board of Directors utilizing
AMERICAN's board seat. The Parties expect that TSG and AMERICAN will each obtain
a seat on the SITA Board of Directors and the Parties will jointly support the
efforts necessary to realize these rights. If TSG does not obtain on its own
behalf a seat on the SITA Board of Directors by September 1, 2000, immediately
thereafter AMERICAN shall reassume its right to designate a representative on
the SITA Board of Directors utilizing its Board seat, and the provisions of the
Stock Agreement that allow TSG to designate a representative to represent TSG on
the SITA Board of Directors are hereby deemed amended to reflect such change.

                  E. The Parties expect to enter into a Tripartite Agreement
(the "Tripartite Agreement") with SITA that will govern the relationship of the
Parties with respect to SITA

                                                                         Page 15



<PAGE>

matters. Upon execution of the Tripartite Agreement the Tripartite Agreement
will govern in the event that a conflict arises between the terms of this
Section 3.17, Section "20.8 SITA INDEMNIFICATION" and the Tripartite
Agreement.

3.18 SPECIAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING CUSTOM SOFTWARE. TSG and the Airline Group
acknowledge that software used and developed under this Agreement is custom
software for specific uses.

3.19 ELECTRONIC TRAVEL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM. The Parties' agreements regarding
the use of PSS/FPC in connection with any Electronic Travel Distribution System
for the benefit of the Airline Group are set forth Exhibit P: Electronic Travel
Distribution System.

3.20 SPECIAL PROVISIONS REGARDING CERTAIN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT.

[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                       Article IV -- Locations of Services

4.1 TSG'S CHANGES TO LOCATIONS. Consistent with TSG's rights under Section "3.4,
TSG's RIGHTS TO MANAGE ITS RESOURCES," nothing in this Agreement shall prevent
TSG from changing, consolidating, eliminating or adding, after the Effective
Date, its locations at which it provides the TSG Services so long as such
changes, consolidations, eliminations or additions cause no Material Adverse
Impact on the Airline Group and provided that if any TSG Services are performed
on-site at the Airline Group's locations on the Effective Date, TSG may not
change the location of such service without AMERICAN's Consent.

                  A. TSG shall consult with AMERICAN concerning such changes,
consolidations, eliminations or additions.

                  B. TSG's application developers are not considered "on-site"
unless expressly assigned as of the Effective Date to share an office area with
the user department.

                  C. TSG shall not move the TSG Operated Software or hardware
for the Real Time Applications known as Passenger Services Systems (PSS) and
Flight Operating Systems (FOS) located at the Secure Computer Center, located at
4000 N. Mingo Road, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74116-5020 as of the Effective Date, without
AMERICAN's Consent.

4.2 AIRLINE GROUP'S REQUESTED CHANGES AT ITS LOCATIONS. If an Airline Group
member wishes TSG to change, consolidate, eliminate or add any function that
would be performed at the Airline Group member's location, it shall so Notify
TSG. TSG shall promptly provide AMERICAN with a good faith estimate of the cost,
if any, that will be borne by AMERICAN consistent with the expense allocations
set forth in Section "3.2, ACCESS TO AND USE OF FACILITIES," of making such
change, consolidation, elimination or addition. TSG will make such change,
consolidation, elimination or addition upon AMERICAN's approval of such cost
estimate, which approval will be given at AMERICAN's sole discretion.

                                                                         Page 16

                           Article V -- Service Levels

5.1 SERVICE LEVELS IN GENERAL. For each of the TSG Services or systems specified
in Exhibit D: Services Subject to SLA, AMERICAN and TSG shall establish an SLA.
It is the intention of TSG to provide good service to the Airline Group, to
correct problems with any TSG Services, and to cooperate with the Airline Group
to resolve any reasonable, remediable dissatisfaction with a TSG Service.

                  A. The SLAs agreed to by the Parties as of the Effective Date
are specified in Exhibit E: Agreed SLAs.

                  B. The Parties may agree at any time after the Effective Date
to add/delete SLAs to/from the Agreement; upon the Parties' Consent, an SLA
established after the Effective Date shall be deemed incorporated into Exhibit
E: Agreed SLAs for all purposes. Any new SLA may result in additional Fees for
the development, implementation or monitoring of the SLA.

                  C. TSG and AMERICAN intend that TSG perform the TSG Services
at levels above the SLA Standards. Both Parties acknowledge that the actual
levels of performance are likely to fluctuate, as contemplated in the SLAs.

                  D. In general TSG shall strive to improve continually its
actual performance and, subject to Subsections D(1) and D(2) below, shall not
knowingly act in a manner that will reduce its level of performance.

                [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                           (2) If TSG identifies cost-saving opportunities
for itself that will reduce its levels of performance, but such reduction
will be DE MINIMIS, AMERICAN and TSG shall cooperate to enable TSG to take
advantage of such cost-saving opportunities, except that TSG may not reduce
its levels of performance below the SLA Standards.

                  E. Prior to engaging a subcontractor in accordance with
Article VI -- Subcontracting, TSG and AMERICAN shall establish an SLA Standard
for the service(s) to be subcontracted.

5.2 SLA REQUIREMENTS. All SLAs shall conform in substance to the requirements
specified in this Section.

                  A. Each SLA shall specify the SLA Standard for the services
subject to such SLA.

                                                                         Page 17


<PAGE>
                  B. Each SLA shall specify one of the following categories in
which the service is designated: "Critical TSG Service," "High Risk TSG
Service," "Medium Risk TSG Service," or "Low Risk TSG Service." If no such
category is specified, such service shall be deemed as designated "Low Risk TSG
Service."

                  C. [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], the
Parties will establish for each SLA, Performance Increases and Performance
Decreases, if any, with the intention that over the course of a calendar year
the Performance Increases and Performance Decreases shall be equal. If the
Parties cannot establish the Performance Increases and Performance Decreases
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], for any SLA, they will [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] to resolve the remaining disputed
issues in accordance with this Agreement [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] in accordance with the "DISPUTE RESOLUTION" provisions set forth in
Article XXIII. Further, in rare circumstances, the Parties may balance one SLA
established to yield Performance Increases more than Performance Decreases with
another SLA established to yield corresponding Performance Decreases more than
Performance Increases, so that over the course of a calendar year the intended
Performance Increases and Performance Decreases from the two SLAs shall be
equal. Nevertheless, nothing in this Section 5.2 shall be construed as requiring
the actual Performance Increases to equal the Performance Decreases while this
Agreement is in effect.

                  D. For services designated as a Critical TSG Service or High
Risk TSG Service, each SLA may specify Performance Increases for Exceptional
Performance and Performance Decreases for Inadequate Performance; except that
nothing in this Section 5.2 shall be construed as requiring both a Performance
Increase and a Performance Decrease be applicable to the same measure of
performance.

                  E. Each SLA may specify one or more SLA Service Termination
Events.

                  F. If an MFC Customer adopts a different SLA, TSG shall
make such SLA available to AMERICAN and AMERICAN shall have the option to
adopt such SLA in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, including
payment of any additional, incremental Fees, if any, for the development,
implementation or monitoring of an SLA.

5.3 HISTORICAL SLA STANDARDS. For each TSG Service, the SLA Standard shall be
established at the Historical SLA Standard or the New Historical SLA Standard.
If performance level information is unavailable for 1994 and 1995, the SLA
Standard shall be established at the performance levels measured in 1996,
excluding data points where performance levels are clearly unacceptable, and
consequently, the 1996 performance levels are the Historical SLA Standard for
such service.

                  A. Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall be construed as
preventing TSG and AMERICAN from agreeing to an SLA Standard that differs from
the Historical SLA Standard or the New Historical SLA Standard.

                  B. While this Agreement is in effect, TSG shall establish and
maintain the SLA Database.

                                                                         Page 18

<PAGE>

                  C. TSG shall provide a query and report capability to the SLA
Database as part of the TSG Services.

5.4 MONITORING. TSG shall capture and retain information, for storage in the SLA
Database, and monitor its performance of the TSG Services in accordance with the
SLAs. TSG's adherence to the SLA Standards shall be evaluated every month.

[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

5.6 COSTS BORNE EXCLUSIVELY BY TSG. TSG shall bear all expenses and investments
required to achieve performance to meet the Historical SLA Standards and New
Historical SLA Standards. TSG shall bear all its own expenses of investigating
and correcting Inadequate Performance.


                [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]


5.8     PERFORMANCE REVIEWS. The Airline Group's Account Manager and TSG's
Account Manager shall meet at least monthly to review TSG's adherence to the
SLA Standards. TSG shall provide AMERICAN, at least ten (10) days in advance
of such meeting, with such performance reports as have been reasonably
requested by AMERICAN.

                                                                         Page 19
<PAGE>

5.9     CORRECTION OF PERFORMANCE. TSG is obligated to cure or correct errors,
mistakes, and deficiencies in service; and credit or repay AMERICAN for any
excess Fees resulting from such errors, mistakes, or deficiencies as follows:

             A.  TSG shall perform Re-runs subject to Section "7.10, PAYMENT
FOR RE-RUNS."

             B. TSG shall cure all instances of Inadequate Performance. To
effectuate such cure, AMERICAN and TSG shall proceed in accordance with Exhibit
G: Response/Resolution Procedures for SLA Problems.

             C. For TSG Services for which there is no SLA Standard:

                  (1) TSG shall cure or correct its errors, mistakes, and
deficiencies in service and, [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]


                  (2) If in AMERICAN's sole discretion, TSG's performance of a
service for which there is no SLA Standard becomes unacceptable, AMERICAN and
TSG shall negotiate an SLA Standard within thirty (30) days after AMERICAN
requests such negotiation.

5.10     SLA STANDARDS, FORCE MAJEURE EVENT, AND TRANSITION ASSISTANCE. When TSG
cannot meet an SLA Standard due to a cause reasonably under the Airline Group's
control or due to a Force Majeure Event:

             A.  AMERICAN waives any associated Performance Decreases; and

             B. AMERICAN may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section
"24.2, TERMINATION FOR INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE."

TSG shall continue to have the obligation to meet the SLA Standards during
Transition Assistance (subject to the preceding provisions of this Section
5.10).

5.11     AUDITING CODE EFFICIENCY. Subject to Section "14.8, CONFIDENTIALITY AND
THIRD PARTIES," AMERICAN may evaluate, or engage a third party to evaluate, the
efficiency of software used by TSG to provide the TSG Services or software
developed by TSG and funded by or licensed to any member of the Airline Group.
AMERICAN may require that TSG make reasonable changes to such software to
improve its efficiency and TSG may charge AMERICAN at Current Rates for making
such changes. If TSG fails to make such changes, AMERICAN may engage a third
party to make such changes subject to Section "14.8, CONFIDENTIALITY AND THIRD
PARTIES."

5.12     ANNUAL SURVEY. TSG will annually survey a representative sample of the
Airline Group's personnel who use the TSG Services to evaluate their
satisfaction relating to the TSG Services. TSG and AMERICAN will agree in
writing to the survey's sample group, format, objectives, measures of
satisfaction, and desired levels of satisfaction. If such survey reveals that
satisfaction has fallen significantly below desired levels, TSG shall develop a
plan to improve

                                                                         Page 20



<PAGE>

satisfaction in those areas where satisfaction has fallen below such levels.
TSG shall present the plan to AMERICAN within six (6) weeks following
compilation  of the survey results.

                          Article VI -- Subcontracting

6.1     NO SUBCONTRACTING PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES. TSG may not subcontract any
of the TSG Primary Responsibilities without AMERICAN's Consent. Such Consent is
at AMERICAN's sole discretion.

6.2     PERMITTED SUBCONTRACTING. The Airline Group hereby consents to all
subcontracting of the TSG Services by TSG that are subcontracted as of the
Effective Date. TSG may subcontract TSG Services other than the TSG Primary
Responsibilities, except that to subcontract any service that TSG performs at
that time for the Airline Group and for which the total Fees typically charged
to AMERICAN are in excess of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) per year, TSG
must obtain AMERICAN's Consent.

             A. TSG shall promptly Notify AMERICAN of its intent to enter into
any subcontract. Prior to the time of subcontracting, AMERICAN and TSG shall
document historical service levels in order to establish an SLA Standard if
one does not already exist pursuant to Subsection E of Section "5.1, SERVICE
LEVELS IN GENERAL."

             B. TSG is responsible for monitoring and managing the performance
of all subcontractors.

             C. TSG shall remain responsible in accordance with this Agreement
for the TSG Services subcontracted by TSG to third parties. If, as the result
of TSG's subcontracting any TSG Service, the performance of that TSG Service
falls below the level of TSG's previous actual, typical performance, then TSG
shall work with the subcontractor to restore the performance of that TSG
Service to such previous actual, typical performance level.

             D. Even if an inadequacy in a subcontractor's performance does not
amount to a breach of this Agreement or Inadequate Performance, if AMERICAN
is dissatisfied with the performance of any subcontractor, AMERICAN shall
promptly Notify TSG and TSG and AMERICAN shall discuss means to resolve
AMERICAN's dissatisfaction.

             E. TSG shall provide in its agreements with subcontractors such
written provisions as are sufficient to enable TSG to comply with the
provisions of this Agreement. Such provisions shall include, without
limitation, the assignment of any Intellectual Property Rights to the extent
that such rights are to be assigned to AMERICAN pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or the assignment or license (with rights to sublicense) of any
Intellectual Property Rights to the extent necessary to grant AMERICAN the
rights it is granted in Article 11.

             F. Subject to Exhibit C, TSG shall reimburse AMERICAN for any
increase in the Fees, any more than a DE MINIMIS increase in an expense incurred
by the Airline Group, and any increase in the Taxes payable by any member of the
Airline Group due to TSG's subcontracting one or more TSG Services.

                                                                         Page 21



<PAGE>
                                  Article VII -- Fees

7.1 RATE AND RESET SCHEDULE. The Fees charged by TSG to AMERICAN, and payable by
AMERICAN to TSG, for the TSG Services shall be in accordance with the Rates set
forth in the Rate and Reset Schedule applicable for each calendar year.

             A. The Rate and Reset Schedule for each calendar year states the
Current Rates, which are applicable to the TSG Services rendered during that
year, and the Reset Formulas according to which the Current Rates can be reset
for the next year.

             B. If the Rate and Reset Schedule does not include a Current Rate
corresponding to any TSG Service, then, unless the next sentence applies, the
charge for that TSG Service shall be deemed included in other Current Rates.
If TSG rendered a service substantially the same as any TSG Service without
charge before the Effective Date, then it will continue to render that TSG
Service without charge after the Effective Date, unless a Rate for that TSG
Service is included in the Rate and Reset Schedule; except that this does not
apply to prototypes which TSG provided without charge for the Airline Group's
use before the Effective Date.

             C. The Rate and Reset Schedule in effect on the Effective Date
states the Rates applicable during 1996 and the Reset Formulas to set Rates for
1997.

             D. The Rates included in the Rate and Reset Schedule will be
recalculated or re-established by the Parties each calendar year, as
described in Section "7.2, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR EVEN-NUMBERED YEARS" and
"7.3, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR ODD-NUMBERED YEARS." The Reset Formulas for the
TSG Services Benchmarked in an Odd-numbered Year will be renegotiated and
established as described in Subsection A of Section "7.3, ESTABLISHING RATES
FOR ODD-NUMBERED YEARS." The Rate and Reset Schedule shall be deemed amended
in each event described above in this Subsection D. The Reset Formulas for
the TSG Services that are not Benchmarked will continue without adjustment as
stated in the Rate and Reset Schedule.

7.2     ESTABLISHING RATES FOR EVEN-NUMBERED YEARS. For each  Even-numbered
Year, the Rates shall be calculated and established as follows:

             A. In the preceding Odd-numbered Year, the Parties shall:

                  (1) Determine, by May 1 of that Odd-numbered  Year, the
Projected Annual Volume for the next Even-numbered Year;

                  (2) Determine the Projected Annual Reset Fees, in
accordance with Section "7.4, PROJECTED ANNUAL RESET FEES," for the next
Even-numbered Year;

                  (3) Conduct the Benchmarking Process in accordance with
Section "7.5, BENCHMARKING" to obtain the Benchmark Results for the next
Even-numbered Year; and


                                                                         Page 22



<PAGE>

                  (4) Determine the Projected Negotiated Rates and the
Projected Annual Negotiated Fees, in accordance with Section "7.6, PROJECTED
ANNUAL NEGOTIATED FEES," for the next Even-numbered Year.

             B. The Projected Negotiated Rates corresponding to the Projected
Annual Negotiated Fees shall be the applicable Rates for the TSG Services
rendered during the next Even-numbered Year, unless the difference (expressed
as an absolute value) between the Projected Annual Negotiated Fees and the
Projected Annual Reset Fees is greater than the Adjustment Amount.

             C. If the Projected Annual Reset Fees exceed the Projected Annual
Negotiated Fees by an amount greater than the Adjustment Amount, the annual
Fees projected for the next Even-numbered Year shall be the result of
subtracting the Adjustment Amount from the Projected Annual Reset Fees.

             D. If the Projected Annual Negotiated Fees exceed the Projected
Annual Reset Fees by an amount greater than the Adjustment Amount, the annual
Fees projected for the next Even-numbered Year shall be the result of adding
the Adjustment Amount to the Projected Annual Reset Fees.

             E. If either Subsection C or Subsection D of this Section 7.2
applies, the Parties shall then negotiate the Rates applicable to the TSG
Services that were Benchmarked so that all of the Rates (including those for
TSG Services not Benchmarked) result, when applied to the Projected Annual
Volume for the next Even-numbered Year, in the aggregate amount of the
projected annual Fees, and those Rates shall apply to the TSG Services
rendered during the next Even-numbered Year.

7.3     ESTABLISHING RATES FOR ODD-NUMBERED YEARS. The Rates applicable to
the TSG Services rendered during 1999 shall be calculated and established by
applying the Reset Formulas set forth in the Rate and Reset Schedule in
effect on the Effective Date to the Current Rates (in effect during 1998).
The Rates for each subsequent Odd-numbered Year shall be calculated and
established as follows:

             A. In each Odd-numbered Year, for the TSG Services Benchmarked in
that year, the Parties shall negotiate and establish, and set forth in the Rate
and Reset Schedule, Reset Formulas for the next Odd-numbered Year.

             B. The Rates calculated and established by applying those new
Reset Formulas, and by applying the continuing Reset Formulas for the TSG
Services not so Benchmarked, to the Current Rates shall be the applicable Rates
for the TSG Services rendered during the next Odd-numbered Year, unless
Subsection C or Subsection D of Section "7.2, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR
EVEN-NUMBERED YEARS" applied to the preceding Even-numbered Year.

             C. If Subsection C or Subsection D of Section "7.2, ESTABLISHING
RATES FOR EVEN NUMBERED YEARS" applied to the preceding Even-numbered Year,
then the Parties shall determine the Projected Annual Reset Fees, in
accordance with Section "7.4,

                                                                         Page 23

<PAGE>

PROJECTED ANNUAL RESET FEES," for the next Odd-numbered Year and adjust the
Projected Annual Reset Fees by:

                  (1) If Subsection C of Section "7.2, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR
EVEN-NUMBERED YEARS" applied, subtracting the Capped Adjustment, or

                  (2) If Subsection D of Section "7.2, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR
EVEN-NUMBERED YEARS applied, adding the Capped Adjustment.

             D. If Subsection C of this Section 7.3 applies, the Parties shall
then negotiate the Rates applicable to the TSG Services that were most
recently Benchmarked so that all of the Rates (including those for TSG
Services not so Benchmarked) result, when applied to the Projected Annual
Volume for the next Odd-numbered Year, in the aggregate amount of the
Projected Annual Reset Fees as adjusted in accordance with Subsection C of
this Section 7.3, and those Rates shall apply to the TSG Services rendered
during the next Odd-numbered Year.

7.4     PROJECTED ANNUAL RESET FEES. The Parties shall determine the Projected
Annual Reset Fees for the next calendar year by:

             A. Establishing Rates by applying the Reset Formulas to the
Current Rates;

             B. Multiplying those reset Rates by the Projected Annual Volume for
the next calendar year; and

             C. If the Projected Annual Reset Fees are being determined for an
Even-numbered Year and Subsection C of Section "7.3, ESTABLISHING RATES FOR
ODD-NUMBERED YEARS" applied to the preceding Odd-numbered Year, then:

                  (1) If Subsection C(1) of Section "7.3, ESTABLISHING RATES
FOR ODD-NUMBERED YEARS" applied, subtracting any Unapplied Capped Adjustment
from the product described in Subsection B of this Section 7.4, or

                  (2) If Subsection C(2) of Section "7.3, ESTABLISHING RATES
FOR ODD-NUMBERED YEARS" applied, adding any Unapplied Capped Adjustment to the
product described in Subsection B of this Section 7.4.

The Projected Annual Reset Fees for the next calendar year must be determined by
October 1 of the year in which the determination is being made.

7.5     BENCHMARKING. In each Odd-numbered Year, the Parties shall conduct the
Benchmarking Process, with appropriate consideration to, among other things, the
rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Airline Group's and, to the
extent TSG obtains synergies by combining "like volumes" for benchmarked
products (Sabre will not unreasonably refuse to provide services in a way which
obtains such synergies), MFC Customers' collective size as recipients of data
processing services, the SLA Standards required of TSG, the geographic factors
involved in providing the TSG Services to the Airline Group, and the exclusivity
commitments made by AMERICAN for services, and the Retained Rights.

                                                                         Page 24

             A. On or before May 1 of each Odd-numbered Year, the Parties shall
jointly select and engage one or more Benchmark Providers. The Parties agree
that they are to mutually solicit and evaluate the qualifications and
methodologies of prospective Benchmark Providers.

             B. The agreement with the Benchmark Provider or Benchmark
Providers shall contain, at a minimum, provisions substantially similar to
the following provisions:

                  (1) The Benchmark Provider or Benchmark Providers shall
complete the Benchmarking Process and submit the Benchmark Report on or
before September 1 of the Odd-numbered Year.

                  (2) The Benchmark Report shall contain sufficient information
to demonstrate that the Benchmark Provider or Benchmark Providers have
compared the TSG Services to those services offered by a representative group
of providers of data processing services with reasonable consideration of,
among other things, the various factors described in the first sentence of
this Section 7.5.

                  (3) The Benchmark Report shall state the Benchmark Results
and shall be delivered to both Parties.

                  (4) Typically, the Benchmarking Process wil be conducted as
a joint effort between all MFC Customers and TSG, and each of the Parties
shall pay a proportionate share of the fees and expenses (if any) of each
Benchmark Provider. The proportionate share of such fees and expenses for
each MFC Customer shall be calculated by determining the number of MFC
Customers participating in such process and dividing the total fees and
expenses of such Benchmark Provider by the number of participating MFC
Customers plus TSG. AMERICAN and any subsequent MFC Customer shall not be
charged for any such expenses or fees attributable to a Benchmarking Process
occurring prior to AMERICAN's or such MFC Customer's participation in such
process. However, nothing in this Section 7.5 precludes AMERICAN from
performing an independent or additional Benchmarking Process exclusively with
TSG, each Party bearing one half of the Benchmark Providers' related fees and
expenses. Neither party can share the independent Benchmark Results of such
Benchmarking Process without the other party's consent.

             C. The Benchmark Provider shall evaluate all Current Rates, except
Third-party Pass-through Charges, Hourly Labor Rates, and any Rates for which
there is not a market that can serve as a reasonable comparison.

             D. The Parties may, but shall not be obligated to, accept all or
any portion of the Benchmark Report or use in any manner any of the Benchmark
Results. Nevertheless, the Parties intend that the Benchmark Results be
available in each Odd-numbered Year as a guideline for their negotiations of
Rates and Reset Formulas.

7.6     PROJECTED ANNUAL NEGOTIATED FEES. By October 1 of each Odd-numbered
year, the Parties shall determine the Projected Annual Negotiated Fees for
the next Even-numbered Year by multiplying the corresponding Projected
Negotiated Rates by the


                                                                         Page 25


<PAGE>

corresponding Projected Annual Volume (though, if the Parties agree, this
Projected Annual Volume need not be the same as the one submitted to the
Benchmark Provider or Benchmark Providers for the Benchmarking Process).

7.7     LIMITED USE OF PROJECTED FEES. The determination of projected annual
Fees of any kind in accordance with any preceding Section of this Article VII
is solely for the purpose of establishing Rates. None of those projections of
annual Fees is a target for or a limit on any actual annual Fees, and neither
Party shall have any right or remedy because any actual annual Fees do not
conform to or correspond with projected annual Fees.

7.8     RECOURSE TO DISPUTE RESOLUTION. If, because of any Dispute, the Parties
fail to determine any essential component of the establishment of any Rate by
the applicable date specified in a preceding Section of this Article VII, the
Parties shall promptly resolve that Dispute, as soon as practicable after the
specified date, in accordance with Article XXIII -- Dispute Resolution.

             A. If that Dispute is not resolved by January 1 of the year for
which any Rate is to be effective, the preceding year's Rate for the
corresponding TSG Service shall continue in effect pending resolution.

             B. The Rate determined by resolution of that Dispute shall be
deemed effective January 1 as though the Parties had timely agreed.
Accordingly, either on the due date of the first invoice due after that
Dispute is resolved or the due date of the first invoice covering any period
on or after January 1, whichever is later, either TSG shall credit AMERICAN
any excess Fees received since January 1 or AMERICAN shall pay TSG any
additional Fees due to TSG since January 1.

             C. The final invoice after termination or Expiration of this

7.13     FEE REDUCTIONS FOR DROPPING CERTAIN MAINTENANCE. Upon Notice to TSG,
AMERICAN may elect to terminate for such devices as may be specified in such
Notice, the TSG Services that provide maintenance as part of Device Support,
subject to Section "3.10, EXCLUSIVITY." If AMERICAN so elects, TSG shall reduce
Fees by an amount equal to the maintenance savings and AMERICAN and TSG shall
mutually determine what, if any, modification there will be to the applicable
SLA Standard.

7.15 PAYMENTS FOR THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE UPON DISAFFILIATION. On the
Disaffiliation Date, TSG shall pay such license fees, and any applicable or
related Taxes that result from the disaffiliation of TSG from American, for the
Transferred Third-party Software and the Other Third-party Software as are
required to enable the Airline Group to continue to receive the TSG Services.

7.16 FAIR ALLOCATION OF COSTS. Fees that are based on costs incurred after
the Effective Date shall be subject to the principle of "fair allocation of
cost"; i.e., that such Fees shall reflect TSG's cost of providing service to
AMERICAN in the context of TSG's total volumes provided to all TSG Customers
and TSG's own use of the applicable systems. If AMERICAN and TSG do not agree
that a "fair allocation of cost" is being made for any specific item or
items, at AMERICAN's request, the Parties shall (after management level
discussions and attempts to resolve differences in accordance with the
dispute resolution provisions set forth in ARTICLE XXIII - Dispute
Resolution) engage the services of an independent accounting firm mutually
acceptable to both Parties. The accounting firm's fees shall be paid in equal
proportions by the Parties. Such accounting firm shall conduct a review,
using costing principles based on activity by TSG on behalf of AMERICAN and
all TSG Customers and TSG's own use of the applicable systems, of the
allocations in question and the judgment of such firm shall be considered
binding on both Parties for determining "fair allocation of cost." Nothing in
this Section 7.16 eliminates AMERICAN'S rights under ARTICLE XXVII - Auditing
Rights.

7.17 ALLOCATION OF COSTS UPON TERMINATION BY AN MFC CUSTOMER OF ALL OR PART OF
ITS AGREEMENT WITH TSG. [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                                                                       Page 29

<PAGE>

                      Article VIII -- Invoices and Payment

8.1 INVOICES. AMERICAN is required to pay only for services provided by TSG
pursuant to the prices and other terms and conditions of this Agreement or as
otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the Parties. TSG shall use reasonable
efforts to submit an invoice to AMERICAN for the prior month's Fees on or before
the eighth (8th) Business Day of every month. Such invoice is due and payable
and AMERICAN shall pay such invoice within thirty days after AMERICAN's receipt
of such invoice, except as otherwise provided in Section "8.2, DISPUTED
INVOICES."

8.2 DISPUTED INVOICES. If there is a Disputed Invoice, AMERICAN may withhold a
portion of the amount stated in the Disputed Invoice in accordance with this
Section 8.2.

                           A.       If the Disputed Invoice is greater than or
equal to the prior month's invoice, AMERICAN shall pay TSG all undisputed
amounts[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]; except that AMERICAN
may withhold the payment of taxes on disputed amounts without regard to the
limitation specified in this Subsection and amounts calculated herein shall be
net tax calculations.

                           B.       If the Disputed Invoice is less than the
prior month's payment, AMERICAN shall pay TSG all undisputed
amounts[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]: therefore, in such
event and irrespective of the amount in dispute, AMERICAN may not, in respect
to the Disputed Invoice, withhold payment of any amount in excess of
[TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the Disputed Invoice;
except that AMERICAN may withhold the payment of taxes on disputed amounts
without regard to the limitation specified in this Subsection and amounts
calculated herein shall be net tax calculations.

                  C. In no event shall a Party's adherence to the provisions of
this Section 8.2 be construed as constituting a waiver by either Party of any
claims against the other Party.

8.3 BILLING PROCEDURES. Each invoice submitted to AMERICAN shall be in accord
with this Section 8.3.

                  A. Each invoice shall indicate the Fees and, subject to
changes made pursuant to Section "8.4, NEW BILLING SYSTEM" and Section "9.6,
COOPERATION," will include separate sub-totals for taxable and nontaxable
services and property.

                  B. Along with every invoice TSG shall provide relevant (as
determined by AMERICAN in its good faith, reasonable judgment) written
information to substantiate the Fees, including supporting documentation of
resource usage, information concerning TSG Software Income for agreements
executed prior to the Disaffiliation Date, or executed after the Disaffiliation
Date and signed by the Parties' Account Managers, which include payment by Sabre
of royalties to AMERICAN on software license fees earned by Sabre, and
information concerning any offset in Fees pursuant to Section "11.14, OFFSET OF
FEES." TSG shall also concurrently provide information concerning the
prospective annual increase or reduction in Fees pursuant to Section "7.11,
PERFORMANCE ADJUSTMENT OF FEES."


                                                                     Page 30


<PAGE>

                  C. TSG shall promptly provide AMERICAN with such information
as AMERICAN reasonably requests to understand or verify the contents of the
invoice. TSG shall bear the cost of any TSG Services required to fulfill such
requests.

                  D. Upon Notice to AMERICAN and with AMERICAN's Consent, TSG
may change the procedures for producing invoices, the billing allocation
methodology for any TSG Service, or the form or format of invoices or
substantiating information that is routinely provided to AMERICAN; except that
any such change shall not affect the amount of any Fees charged AMERICAN nor
shall it limit the Airline Group's ability to conduct the audits described in
Article XXVII - Auditing Rights.

8.4 NEW BILLING SYSTEM. At its own expense, TSG shall design, develop, and
implement the New Billing System. TSG and AMERICAN shall mutually develop
specifications for the New Billing System, and upon written acceptance of
such specifications by both AMERICAN and TSG, TSG shall proceed with the
development of the New Billing System.

                  A. After written acceptance by both Parties, the
specifications of the New Billing System may not change without both Parties'
Consent.

                  B. At a minimum the New Billing System shall possess the
capability to account for and bill such Taxes as are applicable.

                  C. If AMERICAN requests and agrees to pay for it, TSG shall
provide additional capability to permit AMERICAN to accommodate additional
functionality (e.g., to report the Airline Group's non-TSG information
technology expenditures).

8.5      INTEREST ON OVERDUE AMOUNTS.  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED]


                    Article IX -- Transfer and Property Taxes

9.1 ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR CERTAIN TAXES. AMERICAN shall be
responsible for (and shall indemnify TSG for) Taxes imposed on, based on, or
measured by any consideration for, any provision of services or transfer of
property by TSG to an Airline Group member pursuant to this Agreement; except
that TSG shall be responsible for (and shall indemnify Airline Group for) all
Taxes that are imposed on, based on or measured by TSG's acquisition, ownership,
or use of property or services, or the provision of property or services to TSG.
Neither Party shall be liable to the other Party for interest included in Taxes
in excess of interest at the rate set forth in Section "8.5, INTEREST ON OVERDUE
AMOUNTS" or penalties and additions to Taxes to the extent such interest,
penalties, and additions to taxes result from tax return positions taken by the
other Party that are unrelated to this Agreement or from the willful misconduct
or gross negligence of the other Party.

                                                                    Page 31



<PAGE>

9.2 CLAIM OF EXEMPTION. AMERICAN shall pay any Taxes for which it is responsible
which are invoiced by TSG to a member of the Airline Group under Article VIII --
Invoices and Payment unless AMERICAN promptly provides TSG with an exemption
certificate, resale certificate or letter explaining why AMERICAN believes the
Tax is not applicable. Such certificate or letter does not relieve a member of
the Airline Group of ultimate liability under this Article IX to the extent the
taxing authority disagrees with the Airline Group's position that no such Tax is
due; provided, that a member of the Airline Group shall have no liability for
Taxes either not yet due and payable or Taxes being contested (unless payment is
a condition to contest) in accordance with Section "9.4, CONTESTS OF TAX
ASSESSMENTS." TSG may at any time require a member of the Airline Group to
deliver a letter of advice from outside counsel, selected by a member of the
Airline Group and reasonably acceptable to TSG, that a member of the Airline
Group's position is reasonable under the tax law. The cost of such letter shall
be split equally between the Parties. If such a letter is not delivered within
thirty (30) days of the request, a member of the Airline Group must pay the
Taxes invoiced.

9.3 PROPERTY TAXES. Subject to the terms of other leases or agreements, each of
TSG and each member of the Airline Group is responsible for the reporting and
payment of any ad valorem taxes due on property owned by it or leased by it from
a third party.

9.4 CONTESTS OF TAX ASSESSMENTS. If TSG receives notice from any taxing
authority with respect to an assessment or potential assessment or imposition
of any Tax that AMERICAN would be responsible for paying pursuant to Section
"9.1, ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR CERTAIN TAXES," TSG shall promptly
send Notice to AMERICAN of such notice, and shall, if AMERICAN requests,
timely contest, or if AMERICAN so elects to permit AMERICAN to contest, such
proposed Tax, at AMERICAN's expense and in a forum and with counsel selected
by AMERICAN and reasonably acceptable to TSG, until such assessment has been
upheld by the decision of an appellate court; except that prior to any
judicial contest TSG may require (as a condition to such judicial contest) a
letter from counsel selected by AMERICAN and reasonably acceptable to TSG
that there is a reasonable tax basis for such contest. Any Notice to a Party
under this Section 9.4 shall also be copied directly to the tax department of
that Party, in care of the Director of Taxes, at the address indicated in
Section "28.2, ADDRESSES," and such Notice must be given no fewer than five
(5) Business Days before any statutory deadline for filing the timely protest
of the assessment identified in such Notice. TSG may compromise, settle, or
resolve a Tax contest under this Section 9.4 without AMERICAN's consent
(provided such compromise, settlement, or resolution is limited only to the
Taxes for the tax period involved) if TSG waives its indemnity rights under
this Article IX with respect to the Taxes being contested. Otherwise, TSG may
not compromise, settle, or resolve the Tax contest without AMERICAN's Consent.

9.5      REFUNDS.  Either Party may, at its expense, require the other to
choose and do one of the following:

                  A.  Apply  for and  diligently  pursue a refund  of Taxes
otherwise payable by or subject to indemnification by the requiring Party under
this Article IX,

                                                                        Page 32


<PAGE>

                  B.  If  permitted  by law,  assign its rights to a refund
claim for such Taxes to the requiring Party,

                  C. Pay to the requiring Party the amount of Taxes claimed by
the refund claim with interest at the statutory refund rate, or

                  D. Follow the Dispute Resolution Procedure and pay to the
requiring Party the amount the arbitrator determines is reflective of the
weighted probability of success of recovery of Taxes (with no reduction for
attorneys' fees) had the claim been pursued at the judicial level until the
result had been determined by the decision of an appellate court; except that
before recourse to the Dispute Resolution Procedure, such other Party shall
produce, if requested by the requiring Party, a letter of advice from outside
counsel selected by such other Party reasonably acceptable to the requiring
Party (the cost of which letter is to be split equally between the Parties) that
such other Party's refusal to pursue a refund claim is based on a reasonable tax
position that the amounts are not refundable.

9.6 COOPERATION. Each Party shall provide the other with such cooperation as is
reasonable, at the request of the other Party, to minimize Taxes incurred in
connection with this Agreement. In the case of AMERICAN, such cooperation shall
include providing TSG any applicable resale certificates; information regarding
use of materials, services, or sales; or other exemption certificates. In the
case of TSG, such cooperation shall include providing AMERICAN applicable
information regarding delivery or use of materials, services, or sales;

and at the request of AMERICAN, taking additional steps to minimize Taxes.
Such steps shall also include:

                  A.  Providing itemized (or non-itemized) invoices or billing;

                  B.  Separating (or combining) any of the TSG Services;

                  C. Changing the location at which services or property are
delivered, provided, or used pursuant to this Agreement;

                  D. Permitting any member or members of the Airline Group to
assign to one of its or their Affiliates all or part of its or their rights
under this Agreement, including the right to take delivery of services or
property; in particular, this Agreement may be amended to permit one or more
American Related Entities to acquire TSG Services at specified locations for
purposes of enhancing and modifying the TSG Services for subsequent resale and
delivery to the Airline Group at specified locations.

                  E. Using reasonable efforts to require any third party to take
steps reasonably available to such third party to minimize Taxes;

                  F. Permitting TSG to assign to one of its Affiliates all or
part of TSG's obligations under this Agreement;

                  G. AMERICAN or an Airline Group member entering into
agreements for third party services directly with the third parties, or AMERICAN
entering into agency arrangements

                                                                       Page 33



<PAGE>

whereby TSG acts as AMERICAN's or the Airline Group member's agent in
securing third party services, all subject to AMERICAN reaching reasonable
terms with such  third party; and

                  H.  Amending this Agreement;

except that neither Party shall be required to take any step that would be
materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to
incur material additional costs unless the other Party agrees to reimburse it
for that material disadvantages or those additional costs. In the case of either
Party, such cooperation shall include maintaining data, as reasonably necessary
for tax purposes (and in any event for at least six (6) years from the date of
the transactions to which such data relate); making such data available to the
other Party (or permitting the other Party to copy, at its expense, such data);
and making information in its possession and employees with technical expertise
available (at the providing Party's cost) as reasonably necessary in connection
with the preparation of any tax returns or any audit or tax contest or refund
claim. It is not intended that one Party is necessarily to share in any tax
savings realized by the other Party through the actions or cooperation taken
under this Section 9.6.

9.7 TAXES ON THIRD-PARTY PASS-THROUGH CHARGES. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent any Taxes are imposed on or
with respect to any Third-party Pass-through Charges, or on any mark-ups or
fees related to the Third-party Pass-through Charges, which Taxes exceed the
Taxes that would have applied to a transfer of services or property directly
to any member of the Airline Group from the third-party vendor from which TSG
acquires services or property, TSG shall be responsible for (and shall
indemnify AMERICAN for) such additional Taxes, it being the intent of the
Parties that AMERICAN's liability for Taxes imposed on or measured by any
Third-party Pass-through Charges, or any mark-ups or fees related to the
Third-party Pass-through Charges, shall be no greater than if AMERICAN had
purchased directly from the third-party vendor, instead of through TSG, the
services and/or property to which such Third-party Pass-through Charges
relate. TSG may (with any necessary consent of the third-party vendor and
with AMERICAN's Consent) assign to AMERICAN (or, as AMERICAN may direct, one
or more of the American Related Entities) the rights of TSG under that
agreement or those agreements necessary for the Airline Group to obtain such
services or property directly from the third-party vendor or permit AMERICAN
to otherwise obtain such services or property directly from the third-party
vendor to minimize such additional Taxes.

9.8 ADDITIONAL TAX CONTESTS. If AMERICAN receives notice from any taxing
authority with respect to an assessment or potential assessment or imposition of
any Tax that TSG would be responsible for paying pursuant to Section "9.1,
ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR CERTAIN TAXES," AMERICAN shall promptly send
Notice to TSG of such notice, and shall, if TSG requests, timely contest, or if
TSG so elects permit TSG to contest, such proposed Tax, at TSG's expense and in
a forum and with counsel selected by TSG and reasonably acceptable to AMERICAN,
until such assessment has been upheld by the decision of an appellate court;
except that prior to any judicial contest AMERICAN may require (as a condition
to such judicial contest) a letter from counsel selected by TSG and reasonably
acceptable to AMERICAN that there is a reasonable tax basis for such contest.
Any Notice given to a Party under this Section 9.8 shall also be copied directly
to the tax department of that Party,


                                                                   Page 34


<PAGE>

in care of the Director of Taxes, at the address indicated in Section "28.2,
ADDRESSES," and such Notice must be given no fewer than five (5) Business
Days before any statutory deadline for filing the timely protest of the
assessment identified in such Notice. AMERICAN may compromise, settle, or
resolve a Tax contest under this Section 9.8 without TSG's consent (provided
such compromise, settlement, or resolution is limited only to the Taxes for
the tax period involved) if AMERICAN waives its indemnity rights under this
Article IX with respect to the Taxes being contested. Otherwise, AMERICAN may
not compromise, settle, or resolve the Tax contest without TSG's Consent.

9.9 NO OTHER TAX INDEMNITY. This Article IX contains the exclusive
allocations pursuant to this Agreement of responsibilities between, and
indemnification obligations of, the Parties regarding Taxes. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Parties intend that Article XX - Indemnification does
not apply to Taxes.

9.10 TAXES AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Except as specified in Subsection D of
Section "9.5, REFUNDS", Disputes between the Parties concerning this Article
IX are subject to the Dispute Resolution Procedure, except that Disputes as
to the amount of Tax, if any, owed to a taxing authority (including Disputes
between a Party and a taxing authority) may be resolved by any appropriate
administrative or legal procedure available to a Party or the Parties under
this Agreement apart from the Dispute Resolution Procedure.

                         Article X -- Ownership of Data

10.1 OWNERSHIP OF DATA. The AG Data is the exclusive property of the Airline
Group. AG Customer Data is the exclusive property of an AG Customer and/or the
Airline Group, as determined by such agreements as the Airline Group member may
have with such AG Customer and is deemed proprietary. Data about which there is
an ambiguity as to ownership shall be treated as AG Data and subject to the
provisions of this Agreement until its ownership is resolved in accordance with
Article XXIII -- Dispute Resolution. This Agreement does not purport to address
the ownership of any data other than AG Data or AG Customer Data.

                                                                       Page 36



<PAGE>

10.2 USE OF DATA. TSG shall use the AG Data and the AG Customer Data only in
providing services pursuant to this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly
agreed in writing, TSG shall not and shall not attempt to sell, license,
provide, disclose, use, pledge, hypothecate, and/or in any other way transfer
the AG Data or the AG Customer Data. All such attempts by TSG shall be void and
without legal effect. With AMERICAN's Consent, TSG may use the AG Data or AG
Customer Data for such other purposes and for such compensation as AMERICAN and
TSG may agree in writing.

10.3 RISK OF DATA LOSS. When AG Data or AG Customer Data is in TSG's possession
or under TSG's control and an event occurs that prevents or hinders the access
to or reliable use of such data, TSG shall cure and re-create or restore such
data as quickly as the Airline Group needs such data in its operations.

                  A.  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                  B. Where re-creation or restoration of such data is at
AMERICAN's expense, TSG shall obtain AMERICAN's Consent before performing such
re-creation or restoration that will incur Fees greater than Five Thousand

breach of this Agreement, to provide any Airline Group member with copies of the

rights to such inventions, in all Intellectual Property Rights in and to such
Jointly Owned Software. Except as expressly provided in Section 11.8C(1)

         11.4     OWNERSHIP OF IDS SOFTWARE.[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED]



11.5     NEW SOFTWARE OWNERSHIP. Ownership of and rights to the New Software
shall depend on whether the New Software was developed on the basis that it
was Standard Development, Joint Venture or Strategic Development. The parties
shall determine at the commencement of a development project whether the
software to be developed is going to be on a Standard Development basis,
Joint Venture basis or a Strategic Development basis.
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. In the event that
development work is conducted and the parties have not agreed in writing on
what basis such development was conducted, the resulting New Software shall
be deemed to have been created on a Standard Development

basis. If the Parties determine that New Software is to be developed on a basis
other than a Standard Development basis, AMERICAN's Account Manager and TSG's
Account Manager will sign a separate document to that effect. The parties
respective rights in New Software shall be as follows:

A. For New Software developed on a Standard Development basis, TSG and the
member of the Airline Group requesting the development work ("Requesting Party")
each shall own an undivided one-half interest in such New Software and, except
as provided in Section 11.1 for inventions embodied in such New Software and
patent rights to such inventions, in all Intellectual Property Rights in and to
such New Software. Except as provided in Article XII, TSG and Requesting Party
further agree that no Party to this Agreement will have any obligation to pay to
any other Party any royalty, fee, or other compensation for exercising rights
with respect to such New Software or to account to or share with any other Party
for any revenue received as a result of exploiting such New Software.

B. For New Software developed on a Joint Venture Basis, TSG and the Requesting
Party shall negotiate allocation of the ownership of the New Software and of the
Intellectual Property Rights to be held by both parties, [TEXT OMITTED -

Development.

C. For New Software developed on a Strategic Development basis, rights to such
New Software shall be determined on a case by case basis and will be set forth
in a written document signed by AMERICAN's Account Manager and TSG's Account
Manager. However, if TSG and the Requesting Party agree that New Software will
be developed on a Strategic Development basis but do not specify how rights to
such New Software shall be owned, then the Requesting Party shall own all
rights, title and interest to such New Software, including without limitation
(i) all Intellectual Property Rights to such New Software and (ii) any rights to
patent any invention created during the course of developing such New Software
on a Strategic Development basis. For each instance where TSG develops New
Software that is developed on a Strategic Development basis, the Requesting
Party will determine whether TSG will have any rights to market such New
Software. [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. In the event
ownership of such New Software is allocated to the Requesting Party, TSG hereby
assigns and agrees to assign all of its rights as necessary to achieve the
foregoing ownership position.

11.10    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. .   TSG and each member of the Airline Group
agree as follows:

A.       A Party that solely owns an invention, an original work of
authorship such as software or documentation, know-how or trade secrets
subject to this Agreement will have sole control and authority over
obtaining, maintaining and enforcing Intellectual Property Rights therein,
provided,

                                                                         Page 42


<PAGE>

however, that where another Party, pursuant to this Agreement or another
agreement between the Parties, uses the solely-owned invention, original work,
know-how or trade secret in its business, the owning Party may not abandon or
otherwise dedicate to the public Intellectual Property Rights therein without
first offering such Intellectual Property Rights to the other Party at no cost
except those costs incurred to continue obtaining, maintaining and enforcing
such Intellectual Property Rights.

B.       Parties that jointly own an invention, an original work of
authorship such as software or documentation, know-how or trade secrets
subject to this Agreement will cooperate in obtaining, maintaining and
enforcing Intellectual Property Rights therein.

(1)      TSG will control and bear the cost of obtaining and maintaining
patents on inventions made jointly by employees of TSG and a member of the
Airline Group. TSG will keep the other Party having an interest in such
invention fully informed of the status of any such patents, and, in the event
TSG elects to abandon such patent or an effort to obtain it, TSG will offer
it to the other Party at no cost except those incurred to subsequently obtain
or maintain the patent. The Parties rights to the invention and patent
thereon will not be affected by whether a patent is obtained and by whom.

(2)      Where appropriate, TSG will obtain copyright registration for
Standard Software jointly in the name of TSG and the applicable member of the
Airline Group. Members of the Airline Group will cooperate.

(3)      Each of the Parties jointly owning know-how or trade secrets will
take the same precautions to preserve the proprietary nature thereof as it
takes to preserve the proprietary nature of know-how or trade secrets solely
owned by it.

(4)      Each Party jointly owning an Intellectual Property Right will
cooperate with the other joint owners in enforcement of such Right. If one
joint owner notifies the other joint owners of an intent to enforce a jointly
owned Intellectual Property Right against an identified third party, each
other joint owner will provide, at the reasonable expense of the one joint
owner, full cooperation and assistance in such enforcement and will not take
any action that would inhibit or deprive the one joint owner from obtaining
the remedies sought by such enforcement.

(5)      To the extent necessary under applicable law, each of the Parties
jointly owning an Intellectual Property Right subject to this Agreement
hereby authorizes the other joint owners to exploit that Intellectual
Property Right to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and any
other written agreement between the Parties.

C.       If any Party shall become aware of any infringement or
misappropriation by any third party of the Standard Software or Transferred
Software, it shall promptly give Notice to the other Parties of such
infringement or misappropriation.

(1)      TSG, may, at its own expense, institute suit against such third
party and the members of the Airline Group shall fully cooperate with TSG to
enjoin such infringement or misappropriation and shall, if requested by TSG,
join with TSG as a party to any action brought by TSG for such

                                                                         Page 43

purpose. The Parties intend that TSG bear eighty percent (80%) of all
expenses connected with such suit and that AMERICAN bear twenty percent (20%)
of such expenses; except that if AMERICAN desires to retain its own counsel,
it shall do so at its own cost and expense, and that either Party may, in its
sole discretion, upon Notice to the other Party, choose not to bear any
further expense of such suit.

(2)      If TSG does not institute suit against such third party or otherwise
abate such infringement or misappropriation before the earlier of one hundred
twenty (120) days after receiving Notice from a member of the Airline Group
of such infringement or misappropriation or thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of the statute of limitations, then the member of the Airline
Group may, at its expense, institute suit against such third party, and TSG
shall fully cooperate with the Airline Group to enjoin such infringement or
misappropriation and if reasonably necessary, shall, if requested, join with
the member of the Airline Group as a party to any action brought thereby for
such purpose. The member of the Airline Group shall bear all expenses
connected with such suit, except that if TSG desires to retain its own
counsel, it shall do so at its own cost and expense.

(3)      Any recovery as a result of any suit pursuant to this Section 11.8 C
shall belong to a Party in the same percentage as such Party bore the expense
of such suit; excluding, however, a Party's cost and expense in retaining its
own counsel when such Party did not institute such suit.

A.   General Covenants Not to Sue

(2) Each member of the Airline Group irrevocably and perpetually covenants not
to sue TSG under any Intellectual Property Right owned by such member with
respect to the making, having made, using, selling, distributing, modifying,
copying, importing or otherwise commercializing or exploiting, throughout the
world, (i) any Transferred Software or Standard Software and (ii) any concepts,
inventions or other technology embodied in the Transferred Software or the
Standard Software, except to the extent that any of the foregoing activities are
expressly restricted in, or would otherwise constitute a violation of, a
provision of this Agreement or any separate written agreement between the
Parties. The foregoing covenant is extended to any third party, including
without limitation TSG's customers, to the extent such third party acquires
rights as permitted under this Agreement with respect to Transferred Software or
Standard Software from TSG or its agents or distributors.

(3) TSG irrevocably and perpetually covenants not to sue any member of the
Airline Group under any Intellectual Property Right owned by TSG with respect to
the making, having made, using, selling, distributing, modifying, copying,

<PAGE>

inventions or other technology embodied in the Transferred Software or the
Standard Software, except to the extent that any of the foregoing activities
are expressly restricted in, or would otherwise constitute a violation of, a
provision of this Agreement or any separate written agreement between the
Parties. The foregoing covenant is extended to any third party, including
without limitation Airline Group's customers, to the extent such third party
acquires rights as permitted under this Agreement with respect to Transferred
Software or Standard Software from Airline Group or its agents or distributors.

(4) The covenant not to sue granted by TSG in Section 11.11A(3)(i) in respect of
Transferred Software shall only extend to the Retained Rights.

(5) In relation to any Intellectual Property Rights that are the subject of the
covenants not to sue in this Agreement, TSG and each member of the Airline Group
agrees that the covenants not to
sue granted by it in this Agreement shall extend to any transferee of any of
such Intellectual Property Rights, and TSG and each member of the Airline
Group shall obtain a written agreement to abide by such covenant not to sue
from any such transferee of such Intellectual Property Right.

following shall apply in relation to all TSG Portfolio Software (which does not
include Standard Software or Transferred Software):

A.       TSG grants to AMERICAN and the American Related Entities, as of the
Amendment Date, a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, license to use,
in object code form only, all existing and future versions of such TSG
Portfolio Software that AMERICAN or an American Related Entity elects to
license prior to the earlier of termination of this Agreement or the end of
the Term, [TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. For each item of
TSG Portfolio Software, the license granted herein to such item of TSG
Portfolio Software will only terminate after the earlier of expiration of the
Term or termination of this Agreement at any time that AMERICAN or an
American Related Entity ceases to obtain maintenance from TSG pursuant to
Section 11.12E for such item of TSG Portfolio Software.

B.       To the extent that a particular instance of the TSG Portfolio
Software incorporates Third Party Software and sublicensing of such Third
Party Software is restricted by the terms of TSG's agreement with the third
party, then the rights of the Airline Group and its Affiliates to that
particular instance of TSG Portfolio Software shall be subject to obtaining
any necessary consents of the applicable third-party. The Airline Group and
its Affiliates' use of any Third Party Software incorporated into the TSG
Portfolio Software shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the
applicable license agreement between TSG and such Third-Party licensor which
are notified to AMERICAN by TSG.

C.       AMERICAN shall make no modifications, alterations, or Derivative
Works of the TSG Portfolio Software. AMERICAN shall not reverse engineer,
disassemble, reverse compile or decompile the TSG Portfolio Software.


                                                                         Page 45

such TSG Portfolio Software in escrow, [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED], with an escrow agent and at a location chosen by AMERICAN and TSG
shall provide regular updates to such TSG Portfolio Software source code.
Prior to placing any source code with an escrow agent the Parties will enter
into a source code escrow agreement that will define, among other things, the
events that will allow AMERICAN to have access to the source code (which
events shall include without limitation, events related to maintenance of the
applicable software and TSG's bankruptcy) and AMERICAN's permitted usage of
the source code (which shall include, without limitation, a license to
maintain and operate the applicable software).

has perpetual rights to market all Standard Software and Transferred Software
(including Standard Software and Transferred Software currently under

such Software [TEXT OMITTED CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]; provided,
however, that TSG shall have no rights to market the IDS Software or Cloned
Software Derivative Works.

11.14    OFFSET OF FEES.

REQUESTED] from TSG to AMERICAN, TSG shall retain all license fees and other
compensation that TSG receives arising out of the Jointly Owned Software;

B. If TSG and/or a TSG Customer chooses to participate in an AMERICAN
Development/Enhancement effort (including multihost customers(s), other than
AMERICAN), TSG shall offset the Fees by an amount [TEXT OMITTED CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED]

C. If TSG does not offset the Fees charged to AMERICAN by the amount [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]described in Subsection B of this
Section 11.14, then AMERICAN may

                                                                         Page 46


<PAGE>

[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

Code Out such other customer and such customer may not use such
Enhancement/Development. If the Airline Group chooses not to Code Out such
customer and if TSG has received incremental revenue for such customer's use of
an Enhancement/Development then TSG shall offset the Fees otherwise payable by
AMERICAN to TSG by an amount equal to such incremental revenue up to [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] that would have been due under
Subsection B of this Section 11.14.

The Fees for TSG's Code Out are within the scope of TSG Services and AMERICAN
shall pay the fees incurred for such services; provided, however, if TSG later
distributes or uses such Enhancement/Development for customers for which TSG has
not offset the Fees charged to AMERICAN by the amount [TEXT OMITTED -
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] described in Subsection B above, TSG shall
refund the Fees incurred by AMERICAN to Code Out and TSG shall offset the Fees
in accordance with Subsection B of this Section 11.14

D. The parties acknowledge that nothing in these Sections 11.14B, 11.14C, and
11.14D is intended to contradict current practice in the area of joint
development/joint funding. Should such a conflict occur, current practice shall
prevail. Additionally, the Parties acknowledge that they intend to eliminate
these sections and address these business terms in section 3.20 which will
address joint development/joint funding, as soon as is reasonably practical.

AMERICAN's Chief Information Officer, and as many times as AMERICAN may
reasonably request, TSG shall provide a copy of all or a portion of all
Transferred Software, Standard Software, New Software and Documentation, in
object code and source code formats, on such media as requested by AMERICAN.
TSG's providing such software is a service within the scope of the TSG Services
and is at AMERICAN's expense. TSG shall never refuse for any reason, including
AMERICAN's material breach of this Agreement, to provide AMERICAN with copies of
such software in accordance with this Section 11.15. TSG hereby expressly agrees
that AMERICAN may obtain injunctive relief (in accordance with the Dispute
Resolution Procedure) to enforce the provisions of this Section 11.15.

11.16 JOINTLY USED AND FUNDED SOFTWARE. For certain software that TSG uses to
provide services to TSG and/or TSG Customers and to AMERICAN, AMERICAN and TSG
shall continue to jointly fund Development and Enhancements as TSG's predecessor
and AMERICAN did prior to the Effective Date. The process of allocating
AMERICAN's and TSG's relative share of the cost shall remain as such process
existed on the Effective Date with the intent of reflecting the relative value
to each Party.

11.17    CERTAIN ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE LICENSES FROM AMERICAN.

[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] right of sublicense to US
Airways, to AMERICAN-owned customizations to the SAP software required to
integrate the SAP software with the TSG System, as of December 15, 1997.
AMERICAN and TSG agree

                                                                         Page 47


<PAGE>

to negotiate in good faith an appropriate one-time license fee payable by TSG
to AMERICAN for the foregoing right to sublicense to US Airways.

B. Should the agreement with US Airways or any other applicable MFC Customer
terminate for any reason prior to US Airways' or such other MFC Customer's
exercise of any of the license rights set forth in Subsection A, then the
applicable one-time license fees will be forgiven, or if already paid by TSG to
AMERICAN, refunded.

"24.4, TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE," AMERICAN shall pay TSG [TEXT
OMITTED-CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED].

                    D. To the extent that AMERICAN's use of any of the
Transferred Software or the Transferred Third-party Software to provide AG Mixed
Services under this Section 12.5 would constitute the exercise of rights in
excess of the Retained Rights, TSG and AMERICAN shall mutually agree to [TEXT
OMITTED-CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] incremental use in excess of the
Retained Rights for providing such services to AG Customers.

                    E. AMERICAN may enter into an agreement with an AG
Customer pursuant to this Section 12.5 prior to the determination of a [TEXT
OMITTED-CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED].

13.1      SEPARATE NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT. Commencing on the Effective Date
and continuing for specified periods as set forth therein, the members of the
Airline Group must comply with the terms of the Non-competition Agreement among
AMERICAN, AMR, TSG Corporation, and TSG dated as of the Effective Date, which
restricts such members of the Airline Group from providing certain described
services to other Persons. Such restrictions do not, however, prohibit the
Airline Group's exercise of rights under Article XII -- Marketing and Related
Rights.

                     Article XIV -- Confidential Information

14.1      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, information gathered or compiled by TSG for the Airline Group is
proprietary to AMERICAN and TSG may not sell such information to other
Persons. In addition, the following information is Confidential Information,
whether acquired under or in connection with this Agreement or obtained in
connection with the relationship of the Airline Group and TSG or its
subsidiaries or predecessors before the Effective Date:

                    A. Information relating to the other Party's business,
customers, financial condition, performance, or operation that the other Party
treats as confidential or proprietary;

                    B. The terms and conditions of this Agreement and all
pricing, charges, fees, credits, and invoices connected with this Agreement;

                    C. Information concerning any breach under, or any
Dispute regarding, this Agreement;

                    D. Information that is the confidential information
of a third party and disclosed to a Party subject to an obligation of
confidentiality;

                    E. Any other information, whether in a tangible
medium or oral and whether proprietary to the other Party or not, that is marked
or clearly identified by the other Party as confidential or proprietary;

                    F. The other Party's trade secrets;

                    G. TSG Highly Confidential Information (which does
not include IDS Software, Cloned Software Derivative Works and New Software,
other than that developed on a Standard Development basis); and

                    H. The Parties' conduct, decisions, documents, and
negotiations as part of, and the status of, any Dispute resolution proceedings
under the Dispute Resolution Procedure.

Though the Airline Group's Confidential Information includes the Jointly Owned
Software, New Software and the Transferred Software, the Airline Group consents
to TSG's disclosure and use of such Jointly Owned Software, New Software and
Transferred Software (other than New Softwaredeveloped on a Joint Venture or
Strategic Development basis), subject to any such protections or assurances
against disclosure for the benefit of TSG as TSG may use or effect for

                                                                         Page 51

<PAGE>

its own Confidential Information. Each of the American Related Entities shall
have the same rights and benefits, and the same duties and obligations, as
 AMERICAN (as a "Party") has in this Article XIV.

14.2      EXCLUDED INFORMATION. Information is not considered Confidential
Information to the extent that the information:

                    A. Is or becomes publicly available or available in
the industry other than as a result of any breach of this Agreement or of any
other duty of a Party;

                    B. Is independently developed without reference to
the Confidential Information of the other Party; or

                    C. Is or becomes available to that Party from a source
that is lawfully in possession of the information and that is not subject to
a duty of confidentiality, whether to the other Party or another Person.

14.3      USE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Except as expressly permitted by this
Agreement, all Confidential Information shall be held and protected by the
recipient in strict confidence, shall be used and disclosed by the recipient
only as required to render performance or to exercise rights and remedies under
this Agreement, and shall not be disclosed to any other Person. Except for (1)
Section "14.2, EXCLUDED INFORMATION" and (2) the provision of the (a) source
code of the Cloned Software to third party service providers during and after
the Term (except as restricted in Section 11.8C(3)) and (b) source code of the
Transferred Software, Standard Software and New Software (other than that
developed on a Standard Development basis) to service providers after the Term,
all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement the Airline Group shall not
disclose TSG Highly Confidential Information to any third party without the
prior written Consent of TSG on a case by case basis.

14.4      STANDARD OF CARE. Each Party shall use at least the same degree of
care in maintaining the confidentiality of the Confidential Information as that
Party uses with respect to its own proprietary or confidential information, and
in no event less than reasonable care.

14.5      PERMITTED DISCLOSURES. A Party may disclose Confidential Information
to its officers, directors, employees, legal representatives, accountants, tax
advisors, agents and contractors, on a need-to-know basis, in order to give
effect to this Agreement. Each Party must inform each such Person to whom any
Confidential Information is so communicated of the duty of confidentiality
regarding that information under this Agreement and impose on that Person the
obligation to comply with this Article XIV regarding the Confidential
Information, which in the case of agents and contractors shall mean the signing
of a non-disclosure agreement.

14.6      REQUIRED DISCLOSURES. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information
in response to a request for disclosure by a court or another Governmental
Authority, including a subpoena, court order, or audit-related request by a
taxing authority, if that Party:

                    A. Promptly notifies the other Party of the terms and the
circumstances of that request;

                                                                         Page 52


<PAGE>

                    B. Consults with the other Party, and cooperates with the
other Party's reasonable requests to resist or narrow that request;

                    C. Furnishes only information that, according to written
advice (which need not be a legal opinion) of its legal counsel, that Party
is legally compelled to disclose; and

                    D. Uses reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other
reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the
information disclosed.

A Party need not comply with these conditions to disclosure, however, to the
extent that the request or order of the Governmental Authority in effect
prohibits that compliance. A Party may also disclose Confidential Information
without complying with these conditions to the extent that the Party is
otherwise legally obligated to do so (including for the purposes of complying
with applicable securities laws), as confirmed by advice of competent and
knowledgeable legal counsel. Further, a Party may disclose Confidential
Information, without complying with these conditions, (i) in connection with
a tax audit to representatives of a taxing authority or (ii) in connection
with a tax contest in which that Party uses reasonable efforts to assure that
confidential treatment will be accorded the information disclosed.

14.7      TITLE TO INFORMATION. The Confidential Information disclosed by one
Party to the other Party shall remain the property of the disclosing Party, and
nothing in this Article XIV grants or confers any ownership rights in any of
that information to the other Party.

14.8      CONFIDENTIALITY AND THIRD PARTIES. If AMERICAN selects a third party
to perform software audit services pursuant to Section "5.11, AUDITING CODE
EFFICIENCY," and/or other services, including maintenance services, enhancement
services, or development services, and such third party will obtain access to
TSG Highly Confidential Information, AMERICAN must obtain TSG's Consent.

                    A. Nevertheless, except as provided in Subsection B of
this Section 14.8, if TSG can demonstrate that such third party is then a
competitor of TSG in the development or marketing of any software product
having functionality substantially similar to the software to which that
third party will obtain access, or is likely to become such a competitor
within two (2) years, then TSG's Consent shall be at its sole discretion.

                    B. TSG may not unreasonably withhold its Consent,
however in the following circumstances:

                                        (1) As to every third party that is
capable or competent to perform and that has bid, or expressed a willingness,
to perform at or near the same price as any third party to which TSG has
withheld its Consent in accordance with Subsection A of this Section 14.8; or

                                        (2) When such Consent is necessary to
enable an Airline Group member to enter into an operating or marketing
alliance or any other marketing relationship that is intended to increase the
Airline Group's passenger or cargo revenue.

                                                                         Page 53


<PAGE>

                    C. Third parties, including Successor Providers, to
which Confidential Information is to be disclosed or to which access is given to
TSG's Confidential Information, including TSG Highly Confidential Information,
shall first execute a non-disclosure/confidentiality agreement substantially in
the form of Exhibit J: Non-disclosure/Confidentiality Agreement.

                    D. Third parties, including Successor Providers, to
which TSG Highly Confidential Information is to be disclosed or to which access
is given to TSG Highly Confidential Information shall first execute a
non-disclosure/non-competition agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit N:
Non-disclosure/Non-competition Agreement.

                    E. No Consent is necessary, and Subsections A, B and
D of this Section 14.8 shall not apply when AMERICAN provides the (a) source
code of the Cloned Software to third party service providers during the Term
(except as restricted in Section 11.8C(3)) and (b) source code of the
Transferred Software, Standard Software and New Software (other than that
developed on a Standard Development basis) to service providers after the Term,
all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

14.9      IRREPARABLE HARM. The Parties acknowledge that any disclosure or
misappropriation of Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement
could cause irreparable harm, the amount of which may be extremely difficult to
estimate, thus making any remedy at law or in damages inadequate. Each Party
therefore agrees that the other Party shall have the right, afforded in Section
B.4(b) of Exhibit M: Dispute Resolution Appendix, to apply to any court of
competent jurisdiction for a temporary or provisional order restraining any
breach or impending breach of this Article XIV. This right shall be in addition
to any other remedy available under this Agreement.

14.10     GENERAL KNOWLEDGE. Each Party understands that the other Party may
enhance its generalized knowledge and experience while this Agreement is in
effect and that the other Party may already possess or hereafter obtain
concepts, data, discoveries, ideas, information, inventions, know-how,
knowledge, methodologies, processes, products, skills, techniques or other work
product, whether or not patentable, that are generally similar to Confidential
Information it may receive under this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be
interpreted as limiting such other Party's rights to develop, disclose, display,
market, obtain, own, publish, provide, release, sell, transfer, or use, in any
manner whatsoever, any such generalized knowledge and experience or any such
concepts; except that such other Party shall in all events comply with the
preceding sections of this Article XIV.

14.11     CONFIDENTIALITY AND BENCHMARKING. Nothing in this Article XIV
precludes an Airline Group member from disclosing (subject to an appropriate
nondisclosure agreement) its business requirements, including services, service
level requirements, geographic location data, and resource consumption, to the
Benchmark Providers or prospective Benchmark Providers or to any other Person in
connection with an RFP or RFQ permitted by this Agreement. Such disclosure may
not include any code or detailed descriptions of functionality of any TSG
Operated Software or descriptions of the service level performance of TSG under
this Agreement.

                                                                         Page 54

                             Article XV -- Security

15.1      SECURITY IN GENERAL. TSG shall provide security for the AG Data and AG
Customer Data in accordance with Section "10.4, DATA SECURITY." TSG shall
provide physical and electronic security for the TSG Services no less rigorous
than such physical and electronic security as are in effect on the Effective
Date.

               Article XVI -- Key Employees and Related Provisions

16.1      DESIGNATION OF KEY EMPLOYEES. In accordance with this Section 16.1,
AMERICAN and TSG shall designate the Key Employees.

                    A. TSG and AMERICAN may designate as Key Employees up to
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the total number of TSG
employees and TSG contractors assigned to provide services to the Airline
Group. The parties anticipate that the maximum number of Key Employees will
be approximately [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] upon the
Effective Date.

                    B. At the commencement of each New/Out-of-scope Services,
Development, or significant Enhancement project to be performed by TSG, TSG
and AMERICAN shall agree as to the personnel who are to be designated as Key
Employees for the duration of such projects or phases of such projects,
[TEXT OMITTED CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], as prescribed in Section
16.1G.

                    C. A TSG employee performing Maintenance may be mutually
designated as a Key Employee [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
 . Without AMERICAN's Consent, TSG may remove a Key Employee who provides
Maintenance and who has been on the Key Employee List for more than
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], but TSG must promptly
provide a replacement TSG employee who has suitable training and skills and
who is designated as a Key Employee.

                    D. Each year during the budgeting process for determining
Maintenance fees, the Parties shall determine the Key Employees for the
maintenance of each application. Of the pool of Key Employees set forth in
Subsection A, no more than [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
of the employees providing Maintenance for such application may be designated
as Key Employees, except when fewer than ten (10) employees are providing
maintenance for such application; in which case there may be up to
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] employees designated as Key
Employees.

                    E. AMERICAN and TSG shall meet quarterly to revise the
Key Employee List. TSG and AMERICAN must mutually agree in writing before a
TSG employee is designated a Key Employee. TSG cannot unreasonably deny
AMERICAN's request for TSG Key Employees. If the Parties disagree regarding
Key Employee status for an individual, TSG may propose an alternative
personnel allocation or designation of a different employee for Key Employee
designation. Should the Parties not agree upon an alternative personnel
allocation or designation, the Parties shall follow the Dispute Resolutions
Procedure.

                    F. In addition to AMERICAN's other rights to designate
certain TSG employees as Key Employees, as set forth in this Article XVI,
AMERICAN shall have the right to identify as

                                                                         Page 55


<PAGE>

Key Employees TSG personnel who provide services to both AMERICAN and other
MFC Customers, except that the restriction set forth in Section 16.2 (A) as to
such Key Employee would be applied to the combination of the TSG employee's
billable time spent working for AMERICAN and such other MFC Customer(s).

[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED].

                    G. TSG may request that an employee be removed from the
Key Employee List prior to the end of the [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED]

                       (1) The removal of the employee from the Key Employee
List would not materially adversely affect the services that the Key Employee
was providing to the Airline Group.

                       (2) TSG can promptly provide the Airline Group with a
replacement employee to be added to the Key Employee List who has suitable
training and skills.

                       (3) AMERICAN retains the right of final approval,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, over all changes to the Key
Employee List pursuant to this Subsection G.

                    H. If TSG removes a Key Employee pursuant to Subsection G
of this Section 16.1 and such removal directly or indirectly causes any
significant service problems, including project delays, project overruns,
programming errors, or service performance degradation, TSG shall promptly
commence correcting such service problems, including, if necessary, replacing
the new Key Employee.

                    I. TSG shall use reasonable efforts to promptly replace a
Key Employee who ceases employment at TSG for any reason, including such
employee's resignation, leave of absence, termination, disability, or death,
with another employee who possesses skills adequate to perform the duties of
such Key Employee. At the next meeting between the Account Managers, the
Parties shall mutually agree whether anyone, and if so who, will be added to
the Key Employee List.

16.2      RESTRICTIONS CONCERNING KEY EMPLOYEES. TSG hereby agrees to the
restrictions described in this Section 16.2 for Key Employees.

                    A. Key Employees designated under Subsection A of Section
"16.1, DESIGNATION OF KEY EMPLOYEES" must dedicate a minimum of
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of their billable time to
providing services for AMERICAN's benefit.

                    B. TSG may not transfer a Key Employee from one
project to another project or application without AMERICAN's Consent.

                    C. TSG may not materially change the job description
of a Key Employee without AMERICAN's Consent.

16.3      REMOVAL OF PERSONNEL. In the event that AMERICAN reasonably and in
good faith determines that the continued assignment by TSG of any Account
Manager or any employee

                                                                         Page 56


<PAGE>

to the performance of TSG Services is adversely affecting the interests of
AMERICAN, then AMERICAN's CIO will send TSG's President (in the case of the
Account Manager's performance) or the Account Manager (in the case of any
other employee's performance) written Notice thereof, specifying the reasons
therefor and requesting that the Account Manager or employee be replaced.
Promptly after its receipt of such a request by AMERICAN, TSG shall
investigate the matters stated in the request consistent with TSG's human
resources policies. The affected individual will be subject to an evaluation
period consistent with TSG's human resources policies for a period of four
(4) months for the Account Manager and three (3) months for other employees,
during which period the individual may correct such problems. During such
period TSG shall use efforts consistent with its personnel policies to
improve such individual's performance; if unsuccessful, TSG shall use
reasonable efforts to replace such employee with a person of suitable ability
and qualifications if such problems are not corrected within such period.

                  Article XVII -- Non-Solicitation of Employees

17.1   NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Except as stated in this Section 17.1,
while this Agreement is in effect and for a period of
[TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], neither Party may recruit
or hire the employees or Independent Contractors engaged by the other Party,
whether as employees or Independent Contractors, without the Consent of the
other Party.

                    A.  AMERICAN may recruit and hire TSG's employees and
TSG's Independent Contractors who previously ever worked for AMERICAN in a
capacity other than providing services substantially similar to the TSG
Services and other than providing operations research services to AMERICAN;
so long as AMERICAN first gives TSG
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]Notice when AMERICAN intends
to hire a TSG employee designated as a Level 5 employee or below and
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] Notice when AMERICAN
intends to hire a Level 6 employee or above.

                    B.  TSG may recruit and hire AMERICAN's employees and
AMERICAN's Independent Contractors who previously worked for a division of
AMERICAN that became TSG or a predecessor of TSG; so long as that TSG first
gives AMERICAN [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] Notice when
TSG intends to hire an AMERICAN employee designated as a Level 5 employee or
below and [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] Notice when TSG
intends to hire a Level 6 employee or above.

                    C.  In the event of Expiration or termination for any
reason, except for termination pursuant to Section "24.4, TERMINATION FOR
CONVENIENCE," AMERICAN may recruit and hire TSG employees and Independent
Contractors assigned by TSG primarily to perform work on behalf of AMERICAN,
and AMERICAN may facilitate and/or assist the Successor Provider in
identifying and hiring such individuals.

                    D.  In the event of termination pursuant to Section
"24.4, TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE," and provided AMERICAN obtains TSG's
Consent, which may be withheld in TSG's sole discretion, AMERICAN may recruit
and hire TSG employees and Independent Contractors assigned by TSG primarily
to perform work on behalf of AMERICAN, and AMERICAN may facilitate and/or
assist the Successor Provider in identifying and hiring such individuals;
except that if TSG does not consent to the hiring of such employee or
Independent Contractor, the cost for such person shall be
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED].


                                                                        Page 57



<PAGE>

                    E.  If an employee's employment or an Independent
Contractor's engagement with a Party terminates, then without the Consent of
such Party, the other Party may not recruit, hire, or engage such former
employee or Independent Contractor, whether as an employee or Independent
Contractor, for a period of [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
after the date of termination of such employee's employment or such
Independent Contractor's engagement.

                    F.  Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section

17.1, and subject to the following restrictions,
[TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] following the Disaffiliation
Date, AMERICAN may recruit, in good faith, a sufficient number of TSG
personnel [TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] TSG personnel
employed by TSG's Research group or TSG's Airline Solutions group, or TSG
personnel who were employed by TSG's sales or marketing groups prior to the
Disaffiliation Date and who ever performed operations research or similar
services for AMERICAN (the "Operations Research Employees") who AMERICAN may
not otherwise recruit and/or hire as a result of this Section 17.1:

                                        (1)  AMERICAN may not hire more than
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] each from the following TSG
operating groups within the Airline Solutions Group: Flight Planning; Crew
Planning; and Yield Management, as well as TSG's Research Group;

                                        (2)  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED].

                                        [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] TSG Operations Research Employees can decline AMERICAN's offer. [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                                        (4)  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] TSG retains the right to manage the careers of its
employees as it normally would in the ordinary course of business.

                                        (5)  Prior to commencing
solicitation, TSG and AMERICAN will agree on a process to minimize disruption
to employees and TSG operations.

                     Article XVIII -- Parties' Relationship

18.1  INDEPENDENT PARTIES. The Parties are independent; each has sole
authority and control of the manner of, and is responsible for, its
performance of this Agreement. This
                                                                         Page 58


<PAGE>

Agreement does not create or evidence a partnership, joint venture or any
other fiduciary relationship between the Parties. Neither Party may create or
incur any liability or obligation for or on behalf of the other Party, except
as described in this Agreement. This Agreement does not restrict TSG from
providing or rendering any services, including services like the TSG
Services, to any other Person; nothing in this Agreement, however, gives TSG
the right to provide or render any services in violation of any other
agreement entered into by the Parties.

18.2   ADVERTISING. While this Agreement is in effect, TSG has the exclusive
right to advertise both as the "preferred provider" of information technology
services to AMERICAN and as possessing a "strategic relationship" with
AMERICAN; so long as the TSG Services are more than
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of all the services
AMERICAN receives that are similar to the TSG Services. The Airline Group
members may endorse a third-party provider as the "preferred provider" of a
particular service that is not (and need not be) provided by TSG. Nothing in
this Section shall be construed as permitting TSG to use any trademark or
service mark of AMERICAN without AMERICAN's Consent, which AMERICAN may give
in its sole discretion.

18.3  AUTHORITY OF ACCOUNT MANAGERS AND OTHERS. Except as expressly
authorized in this Section 18.3, only an officer of a Party may bind that
Party.

                    A.  TSG and AMERICAN may change Account Managers upon
Notice to the other; except that TSG's appointment of an Account Manager is
subject to AMERICAN's Consent.

                    B.  AMERICAN and TSG agree that the Account Managers
shall serve as the general points of contact between the parties.

                    C.  AMERICAN's CIO has the following authority:

                                        (1)  AMERICAN's CIO may bind AMERICAN
to an agreement with TSG to perform any service for which there is a charge,
and such agreement must be in writing; and

                                        (2)  AMERICAN's CIO shall submit a
list of AMERICAN employees that may bind AMERICAN to an agreement with TSG to
perform any TSG Services. All New/Out-of-scope Services and pricing for such
services must be approved in writing by any Level 7 or higher in AMERICAN's
Information Technology Services department. TSG shall contact AMERICAN's CIO
for any clarification or interpretation of the list.

Governmental Authorities and other Persons that are conditions to its

19.3  AMERICAN'S WARRANTIES. AMERICAN hereby warrants and represents that it

defend, and hold harmless the Airline Group Indemnitees from and against Tort
Damages resulting from any action or omission of any employee, agent or
subcontractor of TSG in connection with this Agreement that constitutes
negligence, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of TSG or its employees,
agents or subcontractors.

20.2  CUSTOMER INDEMNIFICATION BY TSG. TSG shall indemnify, defend, and hold
harmless the Airline Group Indemnitees from and against Indemnifiable Losses
resulting from, arising out of, or relating to any claim by any customer of

arising out of TSG's rendering or providing any service similar to any of the
TSG Services to or for the benefit of that claimant.

20.3  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION BY TSG. TSG shall indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless the Airline Group Indemnitees from and against
Indemnifiable Losses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to any
Third-party Claim that any item of intellectual property, including software
or software specifications, provided under this Agreement by TSG infringes a
copyright, misappropriates a trade secret, or knowingly infringes a patent.

                                                                         Page 60
<PAGE>

                    A.  TSG shall not indemnify any of the Airline Group's
Indemnitees, however, if the claim of infringement or misappropriation is
caused by:

                                        (1)  Such Airline Group Indemnitee's
misuse or modification of such item,

                                        (2)  Such Airline Group Indemnitee's
failure to use corrections or enhancements made available by TSG,

                                        (3)  Such Airline Group Indemnitee's
use of such item in combination with any product or information not owned,
developed, or provided by TSG, except as authorized by TSG or where TSG knew
that such combination would be used by such Airline Group Indemnitee and did
not object,

                                        (4)  Such Airline Group Indemnitee's
distribution, marketing, or use for the benefit of third parties of such
item, except as permitted by this Agreement or otherwise authorized by TSG, or

                                        (5)  Any specific information,
direction, specification, or materials provided by such Airline Group
Indemnitee or any third party.

                    B.  If any such item is, or in TSG's opinion is likely to
be, held to constitute an infringing product, TSG shall, at its expense and
option, either:

                                        (1)  Procure the right for the
Airline Group Indemnitees to continue using such item,

                                        (2)  Replace such item with a
non-infringing equivalent item,

                                        (3)  Modify such item or have such
item modified to make it non-infringing, or

                                        (4)  If none of the previous three
(3) options is available on commercially reasonable terms, as determined by
TSG in its good faith business judgment, accept return of such item and
refund to the Airline Group Indemnitee the Fees paid for such item, less a
reasonable amount for the Airline Group Indemnitee's use of such item up to
the time of return, except that the foregoing shall not apply if such item is
integral to providing the Airline Group a Critical TSG Service, in which case
TSG may do so only if no reasonable workaround from the blocking intellectual
property rights is practicable.

                    C.  The rights and remedies stated in this Section 20.3
and 20.12 constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the Airline Group
Indemnitees, and TSG's entire liability, with respect to a Third-party Claim
of infringement and misappropriation.

20.4  INJURY AND PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION BY AMERICAN. AMERICAN shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TSG Indemnitees from and against
Tort Damages resulting from any action or omission of any employee, agent or
subcontractor of the Airline Group (excluding TSG or its subcontractors) in
connection with this Agreement that constitutes

                                                                         Page 61
<PAGE>

negligence, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of any member of the
Airline Group or its employees, agents or subcontractors (excluding TSG or
its subcontractors).

20.5  CUSTOMER INDEMNIFICATION BY AMERICAN. Subject to Section "20.3,
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION BY TSG," AMERICAN shall indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless the TSG Indemnitees from and against Indemnifiable
Losses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to any claim by any AG
Customer or any of the customers of an AG Customer arising out of the Airline
Group's rendering or providing any AG Mixed Services to that AG Customer.

20.6  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION BY AMERICAN. AMERICAN shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TSG Indemnitees from and against
Indemnifiable Losses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to any
Third-party Claim that any item of intellectual property, including software
or software specifications, provided under this Agreement by any member of
the Airline Group infringes a copyright, misappropriates a trade secret, or
knowingly infringes a patent.

                    A.  AMERICAN shall not indemnify any of the TSG
Indemnitees, however, if the claim of infringement or misappropriation is
caused by:

                                        (1)  Such TSG Indemnitee's misuse or
modification of such item,

                                        (2)  Such TSG Indemnitee's failure to
use corrections or enhancements made available by any member of the Airline
Group,

                                        (3)  Such TSG Indemnitee's use of
such item in combination with any product or information not owned,
developed, or provided by any member of the Airline Group, except as
authorized by a member of the Airline Group or where the Airline Group member
knew that such combinations would be used by the TSG Indemnitee and did not
object,

                                        (4)  Such TSG Indemnitee's
distribution, marketing, or use for the benefit of third parties of such
item, except as permitted by this Agreement or otherwise authorized by any
member of the Airline Group, or

                                        (5)  Any specific information,
direction, specification, or materials provided by such TSG Indemnitee or any
third party.

                    B.  If any such item is, or in AMERICAN's opinion is
likely to be, held to constitute an infringing product, AMERICAN shall, at
its expense and option, either:

                                        (1)  Procure the right for the TSG
Indemnitees to continue using such item,

                                        (2)  Replace such item with a
non-infringing equivalent item,

                                        (3)  Modify such item or have such
item modified to make it non-infringing, or

                                                                         Page 62
<PAGE>

                                        (4)  If none of the previous three
(3) options is available on commercially reasonable terms, as determined by
AMERICAN in its good faith business judgment, the Parties will discuss
alternative means by which TSG may perform the affected TSG Services and any
resulting effect upon affected SLA Standards.

                    C.  The rights and remedies stated in this Section 20.6
constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the TSG Indemnitees, and
AMERICAN's entire liability, with respect to a Third-party Claim of
infringement and misappropriation.

20.7   AIRLINE INCIDENT INDEMNIFICATION. AMERICAN shall indemnify, defend,
and hold harmless the TSG Indemnitees from and against Indemnifiable Losses
resulting from, arising out of, or relating to any Airline Incident. The
Parties intend that the TSG Indemnitees be indemnified notwithstanding any
liability that TSG might otherwise have under Section "20.1, INJURY AND
PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION BY TSG" or Section "20.2, CUSTOMER INDEMNIFICATION
BY TSG" relating to any Airline Incident.

20.8   SITA INDEMNIFICATION. TSG shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless
the Airline Group Indemnitees from and against Indemnifiable Losses (except
as described below in this Section 20.8) that arise or accrue on or after the
Effective Date resulting from, arising out of, or relating to AMERICAN's
serving as the contracting party under the SITA Agreements. Those
Indemnifiable Losses shall:

                    A.  Include any losses, costs, taxes, claims,
liabilities, damages, or causes of action arising from or related to the
obligations of payment (including any fees, penalties, of interest for late
payment or nonpayment), indemnification obligations, and obligations
resulting from the failure to meet the financial minimums under the SITA's
Agreements.

                    B.  Exclude any losses or damages of the kind described
in Subsection A of this Section 20.8 related to the SITA Services consumed by
AMERICAN and its Affiliates other than TSG and its subsidiaries (except for
any amount paid by AMERICAN and its Affiliates to TSG for SITA Services
consumed by AMERICAN and its Affiliates other than TSG and its subsidiaries).

20.9   EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE. THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE OR THE
JOINT OR CONCURRENT ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF TWO (2) OR MORE INDEMNITEES SHALL
NOT PRECLUDE SUCH INDEMNITEE OR SUCH INDEMNITEES FROM RECEIVING THE BENEFITS
OF INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE XX.

20.10  THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS. If an Indemnification Claim is based on a
Third-party Claim:

                    A.  The Indemnified Party shall give an Indemnification
Claim Notice promptly after it receives the Third-party Claim. The failure of
an Indemnified Party to give an Indemnification Claim Notice shall relieve
the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations only to the extent
the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by that failure.
                                                                         Page 63
<PAGE>


                    B.  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to defend
the Third-party Claim, with its chosen counsel and at its own expense, if (1)
the Third-party Claim seeks only monetary relief, and not an injunction or
other equitable relief, against the Indemnified Party, and (2) the
Indemnifying Party elects to assume, and diligently conducts, that defense.
The Indemnifying Party's election to defend must be given by Notice to the
Indemnified Party within the Indemnification Response Period. If the
Indemnifying Party conducts the defense, the Indemnified Party may
participate in that defense with its own counsel and at its own expense.

                    C.  If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend
the Third-party Claim by Notice within the Indemnification Response Period,
or if the Indemnifying Party does not diligently conduct the defense, the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled, upon further Notice to the Indemnifying
Party, to defend the Third-party Claim on behalf of, and for the account and
risk of, the Indemnifying Party (if it is determined that the Indemnifying
Party has an indemnification obligation regarding that Indemnification
Claim). In this circumstance, the Indemnifying Party may participate in the
defense with its own counsel and at its own expense.

                    D.  If there is a conflict of interest that makes it
inappropriate for the same counsel to represent the Indemnifying Party and
the Indemnified Party in defending the Third-party Claim, the Indemnifying
Party must pay for separate counsel for the Indemnified Party.

                    E.  The Indemnifying Party defending a Third-party Claim
may compromise, settle, or resolve that Third-party Claim without the
Indemnified Party's consent if the compromise, settlement, or resolution
involves only the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party (whether on its
own behalf or behalf of the Indemnified Party) and the third-party claimant
provides the Indemnified Party a release from all liability regarding the
Third-party Claim. Otherwise, the Indemnifying Party may not compromise,
settle, or resolve the Third-party Claim without the Indemnified Party's
Consent.

                    F.  The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party must
cooperate with all reasonable requests of the other in defending any
Third-party Claim.

20.11  NON-THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS. A Party's claim, on its behalf or on behalf of
its other Indemnitees, that the other Party is liable for indemnification
under any of the preceding Sections of this Article XX -- Indemnification
based on any event or action other than a Third-party Claim shall be made by
Notice to that other Party. Any Dispute about that claimed liability shall be
resolved by the Dispute Resolution Procedure.

20.12  THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE INDEMNIFICATION. A Party supplying to another
Party pursuant to this Agreement any software owned by a third party (whether
as a stand alone product or as part of another product or service) shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party from and against
Indemnifiable Losses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to a failure
by the supplying Party (a) to advise the other Party of restrictions, that,
in the reasonable judgement of the supplying Party, would reasonably deprive
the other Party of such other Party's use of the third party's software as
contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) to obtain from such third party rights
reasonably necessary to permit the other Party to use and exploit the third
party's software as contemplated by this Agreement. The supplying Party may,
at its option and
                                                                         Page 64

<PAGE>

expense, (a) obtain from the third party a right for the other Party to use
the third party's software, or (b) unless the third party software is integral
to providing the Airline Group a Critical TSG Service, (1) replace the third
party's software with an equivalent not subject to the third party's control or
(2) accept return of the third party's software and refund to the other Party
the fees paid for such third party software, less a reasonable amount for the
other Party's use thereof.

                     Article XXI -- Limitations of Liability

21.1  INTENDED ALLOCATION OF RISKS. The allocation of risks between the
Parties, and the limitations on the Parties' liabilities and remedies, set
forth in this Article XXI and elsewhere in this Agreement are specifically
intended by the Parties, to be part of their bargain (i.e., part of the
consideration for their other respective benefits and obligations) in this
Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that they have negotiated, with the advice
of legal counsel, such allocation and limitations.

21.2   NEGLIGENCE AND ORDINARY MISTAKES. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 21.2 affects any
liability of a Party to indemnify the other Party's Indemnitees against Tort
Damages or Indemnifiable Losses under Article XX - Indemnification.

21.3  EXTRAORDINARY MISTAKES. TSG's liability for any Extraordinary Mistake
shall be limited to its obligations described in Sections "5.9, CORRECTION OF
PERFORMANCE," "7.11, PERFORMANCE ADJUSTMENT OF FEES" (if an SLA Standard is
applicable), and "10.3, RISK OF DATA LOSS."
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. Any act or omission of TSG
that is appropriately characterized equally (i) as negligent and as an
Extraordinary Mistake shall be deemed an Extraordinary Mistake under this
Article XXI, and (ii) as grossly negligent and as an Extraordinary Mistake
shall be deemed grossly negligent under this Article XXI. For the avoidance
of doubt, nothing in this Section 21.3 affects any liability of TSG to
indemnify the Airline Group Indemnitees against Tort Damages or Indemnifiable
Losses under Article XX - Indemnification, nor does it affect AMERICAN's
ability to terminate this Agreement for cause under Section "24.1,
TERMINATION FOR BREACH."

21.4  [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                                                                         Page 65
<PAGE>

<PAGE>

21.5      GROSS NEGLIGENCE AND WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. A Party's liability under or
relating in any manner to this Agreement for General Damages resulting from that
Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct in the exercise of its rights or
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including any breach of
this Agreement by that Party constituting or caused by its gross negligence or
willful misconduct, shall be limited as follows:

                [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 21.5 affects any liability
of a Party to indemnify the other Party's Indemnitees against Tort Damages or
Indemnifiable Losses under Article XX -- Indemnification.

21.6      LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OF ALL GENERAL DAMAGES. A Party's liability for
General Damages other than Consequential Damages and punitive or exemplary
damages -- i.e., for actual damages -- described above in this Article XXI is
not limited except to the extent provided in this Section 21.6. A Party shall
have no liability under or relating in any manner to this Agreement for any
General Damages (including Consequential Damages or any unpaid Fees) in excess
of [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] in any calendar year. [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED].

21.7      TIME FOR CLAIMS. A Party may assert or make a claim against the other
Party for any breach of this Agreement, or for that other Party's liability
under this Agreement (including an Indemnification Claim), only within three (3)
years after the breach or other event constituting the basis for that claim
occurred, even if not discovered until after that three-year period.
Nevertheless, the three-year limit on the time for asserting or making any claim
shall not apply to a claim (including an Indemnification Claim) based on a
Third-party Claim.

21.8      WARRANTIES. Each Party's warranties in this Agreement are made
solely to and for the benefit of the other Party and, to the extent described
in this Agreement, the American Related Entities. No Person other than a
Party may assert or make a claim based on the other Party's warranties under
this Agreement; any claim for the benefit of any of the American Related
Entities must be made by  AMERICAN.

                                                                       Page 66
<PAGE>

21.9      OFFSET. A Party entitled to any payment due from the other Party under
this Agreement may offset all or any portion of the amount of that payment
against any payment that is due from it to the other Party under this Agreement.

21.10     EQUITABLE RELIEF. To the extent that any monetary relief available
under this Agreement is not an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement,
or upon any breach or impending breach of Article XIV -- Confidential
Information, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief as a
remedy for that breach or impending breach by the other Party, in addition to
any other remedies granted to the non-breaching Party in this Agreement. That
injunctive relief must be sought through arbitration in accordance with the
Dispute Resolution Procedure, except as permitted by Section B.4(b) of the
Dispute Resolution Appendix.

21.11     EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. The remedies described in this Agreement are the
exclusive rights and remedies of a Party regarding any breach of this Agreement
or any matter that may be the subject of a claim for liability under or relating
to this Agreement.

21.12     NONCUMULATIVE REMEDIES. If a particular remedy for a breach of, or the
occurrence of any other event described in, this Agreement is specified in this
Agreement, that remedy shall be the exclusive remedy upon such a breach or
event. Nevertheless, if more than one remedy for such a breach or event is
specified in this Agreement, the Party entitled to a remedy must elect or choose
between the available remedies, and may not cumulate or exercise multiple
remedies, upon such a breach or event. Nevertheless, when there is a deficiency
in a service that is:

                    A.    Not subject to an SLA Standard, AMERICAN is
not required to elect or choose between (1) TSG's correcting or curing the
deficiency, (2) requiring that an SLA Standard be established for that service,
and (3) if caused by an Extraordinary Mistake, [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                    B.    Subject to an SLA Standard, AMERICAN is not required
to elect or choose between (1) TSG's correcting or curing the deficiency, (2)
obtaining any applicable Performance Decrease, and (3) if caused by an
Extraordinary Mistake, [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

21.13     WAIVER OF REMEDIES. No forbearance, delay, or indulgence by a Party in
enforcing this Agreement, within the applicable time limits stated in this
Agreement, shall prejudice the rights or remedies of that Party. No waiver of a
Party's rights or remedies regarding a particular breach of, or occurrence of
any other event described in, this Agreement constitutes a waiver of those
rights or remedies, or any other rights or remedies, regarding any other or any
subsequent breach of, or occurrence of any other event described in, this
Agreement.

21.14     WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY WARRANTY TO THE CONTRARY
IN THIS AGREEMENT, TSG DOES NOT WARRANT (I) THE ACCURACY OF ANY DATA IN ITS
UNALTERED FORM AS PROVIDED TO TSG BY THE AIRLINE GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY OR
(II) THE TIMELINESS OR DEPENDABILITY OF SUPPLIERS SELECTED AND MANAGED BY THE
AIRLINE GROUP. EXCEPT FOR THE

                                                                         Page 67
<PAGE>

EXPRESS WARRANTIES STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER TSG NOR AMERICAN MAKES
ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED; AND EACH OF TSG AND AMERICAN HEREBY
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

21.15     CLAIMS FOR TAXES. Claims for Taxes are subject to Article IX --
Transfer and Property Taxes and not to this Article XXI, except that Sections
"21.1, INTENDED ALLOCATION OF RISKS," "21.8, WARRANTIES," "21.9, OFFSET,"
"21.10, EQUITABLE RELIEF," "21.11, EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES," and "21.13, WAIVER OF
REMEDIES" and this Section 21.15 shall apply to claims for Taxes.

               Article XXII -- Force Majeure and Disaster Recovery

22.1      FORCE MAJEURE. If either Party to this Agreement shall be prevented,
hindered, or delayed in the performance or observance of any of its obligations
hereunder by reason of a Force Majeure Event, then such Party shall be excused
from any further performance or observance of the obligation(s) so affected for
as long as such circumstances prevail and such Party continues to use its
reasonable efforts to recommence performance or observance whenever and to
whatever extent possible without delay; except that to the extent that the Force
Majeure Event impairs the Airline Group's operations, TSG shall use
Extraordinary Efforts. Any Party so delayed in its performance shall immediately
Notify the other by telephone (to be confirmed in writing within five (5) days
of the inception of such delay) and shall describe at a reasonable level of
detail the circumstances causing such delay. If (i) any of the above-described
circumstances prevent, hinder, or delay performance of TSG's operational
obligations hereunder, and (ii) as a result thereof, the Airline Group is
prevented from conducting a significant portion of the Airline Group normal
business operations, then TSG, with the cooperation and assistance of the
Airline Group, shall resume performance of such operational obligations or
arrange for the Airline Group to obtain alternative performance of such
operational obligations. The cost to AMERICAN of such alternative performance
shall not exceed the amount that would have been owed to TSG by AMERICAN under
this Agreement as if TSG were providing the equivalent TSG Services without the
prevention, hindrance or delay of performance of TSG's operational obligations
under this Agreement.

                    A.    Whenever a Force Majeure Event causes TSG to
allocate limited resources among TSG's customers at the affected service
locations, the Airline Group shall receive [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED]. Unless otherwise agreed by AMERICAN's CIO, in such events
TSG shall restore the following systems in the following order: [TEXT OMITTED -
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                    B.    If a Force Majeure Event, other than one intentionally
caused by the Airline Group, causes one or more of the TSG Services designated
as a "Critical TSG Service" or "High Risk TSG Service" to be unavailable for
productive use, AMERICAN may terminate this

                                                                         Page 68

Agreement pursuant to Section "24.3, TERMINATION FOR A FORCE MAJEURE EVENT,"
in accordance with the following:

                          (1)  For each TSG Service designated as a "Critical
TSG Service" other than CargoSABRE, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement if TSG
either fails to give AMERICAN a Force Majeure Recovery Plan within [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event
Commencement or if the applicable TSG Service is not restored, in accordance
with its SLA Standard, within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
after Force Majeure Event Commencement.

                          (2)  For the TSG Service known as CargoSABRE, AMERICAN
may terminate this Agreement if TSG either fails to give AMERICAN a Force
Majeure Recovery Plan within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
after Force Majeure Event Commencement or if CargoSABRE is not restored, in
accordance with its SLA Standard, within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event Commencement.

                          (3)  When a Force Majeure Event has caused more than
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the TSG Services designated
as "High Risk TSG Services" to be unavailable for the Airline Group's productive
use, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement if TSG either fails to give AMERICAN
a Force Majeure Recovery Plan within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event Commencement or if such TSG Service is not
restored, in accordance with its SLA Standard, within [TEXT OMITTED -
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event Commencement.

                          (4)  When a Force Majeure Event has caused more than
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] but fewer than or equal to
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the TSG Services designated
as "High Risk TSG Services" to be unavailable for the Airline Group's productive
use, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement if TSG either fails to give AMERICAN
a Force Majeure Recovery Plan within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event Commencement or if such TSG Services are
not restored, in accordance with their SLA Standards, within fourteen [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event
Commencement.

                          (5)  When a Force Majeure Event has caused any, but
fewer than [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the TSG Services
designated as "High Risk TSG Services" to be unavailable for the Airline Group's
productive use, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement if TSG either fails to
give AMERICAN a Force Majeure Recovery Plan within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event Commencement or if the applicable
TSG Services are not restored, in accordance with their SLA Standards, within
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after Force Majeure Event
Commencement.

22.2      DISASTER RECOVERY. TSG Services shall include implementation of a
disaster recovery plan [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. Such
disaster recovery plan shall be no less rigorous than that in effect immediately
prior to the Effective Date at the facilities of TSG used to provide the TSG
Services as of the Effective Date. In the event that additional disaster
recovery procedures for the applicable facilities are reasonably requested by
AMERICAN, TSG shall perform such additional disaster recovery procedures as
New/Out-of-scope Services. TSG will not knowingly implement disaster recovery
procedures that discriminate against the Airline

                                                                         Page 69
<PAGE>


Group in favor of TSG or another TSG Customer. In the event that activation
of disaster recovery procedures becomes necessary, TSG will promptly inform
AMERICAN of the steps that TSG is taking. AMERICAN acknowledges that any
disaster recovery procedures cannot ensure identical treatment among
customers and that performance of such disaster recovery procedures might
produce temporarily disparate results for TSG's Customers.

                       Article XXIII -- Dispute Resolution

23.1      DISPUTES IN GENERAL. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, the
Parties shall resolve any Dispute in accordance with the Dispute Resolution
Procedure. Nevertheless, if any Person other than the Parties and their
Affiliates:

                    A.    Has initiated a lawsuit or other judicial,
administrative, or arbitration proceedings against or involving either or both
of the Parties in which a Dispute will be resolved, or

                    B.    Is a necessary participant in any judicial,
administrative, or arbitration proceedings to resolve a Dispute and cannot be
joined by either or both of the Parties in an arbitration of that Dispute under
Section B.3 of the Dispute Resolution Appendix,

so that (in either case) the Dispute Resolution Procedure is or will be
ineffective, then the Parties need not use or follow the Dispute Resolution
Procedure to resolve that Dispute -- though the submission to jurisdiction in
Section B.5 of the Dispute Resolution Appendix shall apply if necessary.

23.2      INFORMATION FOR RESOLUTION. The Parties shall freely share, and may
disclose to any mediator or arbitrator as part of any Dispute resolution
proceeding, any and all reasonably requested relevant information, including
Confidential Information, needed to facilitate the resolution of any Dispute and
any and all information likely to lead to such relevant information.

23.3      PAYMENT DISPUTES. With regard to payment Disputes, the Parties will
work to expedite resolution of the Dispute, with the goal of having the Dispute
resolved by the next billing cycle. To such end, all references to ten (10)
Business Days in Sections B.l(b), B.l(c), and B.l(d) of the Dispute Resolution
Appendix shall be deemed to be seven (7) Business Days for a payment Dispute.

23.4      CONTINUITY DURING DISPUTE. In the event of a Dispute, the Parties
shall continue to perform their respective obligations pursuant to this
Agreement as performed prior to the Dispute Resolution Procedure being invoked.

23.5      PARTIES' AGREEMENT. Nothing in this Article XXIII or the Dispute
Resolution Procedure prevents the Parties from resolving any Dispute by mutual
agreement at any time.

                           Article XXIV -- Termination

24.1      TERMINATION FOR BREACH. In the event of certain breaches of this
Agreement, TSG or AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement in accordance with this
Section; so long as
                                                                         Page 70
<PAGE>


AMERICAN gives TSG Notice of its intent to terminate within
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after the date such breach
occurred or, in the case of a continuing breach, commenced.

                    A.    Upon TSG's Egregious Breach of this Agreement,
AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement, so long as AMERICAN gives TSG [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] Notice of its intent to terminate
and TSG fails to cure the breach within such [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED]; except that such cure period will be extended an
additional [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] if TSG delivers to
AMERICAN a written plan to cure the breach. In both instances, unless TSG cures
the Egregious Breach, the termination shall be effective as of the first day
following the end of the cure period or extended cure period as the case may be.

                    B.    Upon AMERICAN's material breach of its obligation
to pay TSG in accordance with this Agreement, TSG may terminate this Agreement
as follows:

                          (1)   If TSG has given Notice to AMERICAN describing
the breach in detail, the monetary amount due, and TSG's intention to terminate
pursuant to this Subsection; and if AMERICAN has not paid such amount within
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after receipt of TSG's Notice;
except that in the case of the first such Notice delivered hereunder, if
AMERICAN fails to pay within such [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED], then TSG shall give a second such Notice to AMERICAN, and TSG may
not terminate this Agreement unless, AMERICAN fails to pay within [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after receipt of such second Notice.

                          (2)    If TSG has, on [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] previous occasions, given Notice to AMERICAN of AMERICAN's
material breach of its obligation to pay TSG in accordance with this Agreement,
and AMERICAN thereafter materially breaches its obligation to pay TSG in
accordance with this Agreement, TSG may terminate this Agreement upon Notice to
AMERICAN.

                          (3)    For the avoidance of doubt, AMERICAN's [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] from Disputed Invoices in accordance
with Section"8.2, DISPUTED INVOICES," are not material breaches of AMERICAN's
obligation to pay.

24.2      TERMINATION FOR INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE. Upon the occurrence of an SLA
Termination Event, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement upon Notice to TSG
given within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after the date
such SLA Termination Event occurred. Upon the occurrence of an SLA Service
Termination Event, AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement as to such TSG Service
upon Notice to TSG.

24.3      TERMINATION FOR A FORCE MAJUERE EVENT. If a Force Majeure Event occurs
and pursuant to Article XXII -- Force Majeure AMERICAN is entitled to terminate
this Agreement, then AMERICAN may terminate this Agreement upon Notice to TSG.

24.4      TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE. At any time after [TEXT OMITTED -
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], and for any reason whatsoever, AMERICAN may
terminate this Agreement upon [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
Notice to TSG and upon payment of all amounts due.
                                                                         Page 71
<PAGE>


                    A.    AMERICAN and TSG agree that if AMERICAN exercises
its right to terminate pursuant to this Section 24.4, the losses, expenses, and
measure of damages suffered by TSG would be uncertain and difficult to
calculate. Therefore, TSG and AMERICAN agree that the Termination Liquidated
Damages are their best estimate of such losses, expenses, and damages and are
not a penalty.

                    B.    AMERICAN shall also pay TSG the Termination
Liquidated Damages in accordance with Exhibit K: Termination Liquidated Damages
Calculation.

                    C.    Upon Notice of termination pursuant to this
Section 24.4, AMERICAN may commence use of the Transition Assistance.

24.5      Termination Upon Acquisition of American. AMERICAN may deliver to TSG
a Notice of termination for convenience (i) within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] after AMERICAN is acquired by an unaffiliated third party,
or (ii) within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after an
unaffiliated third party merges with AMERICAN if the Persons who were
shareholders of AMERICAN immediately prior to the merger own less than [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the outstanding stock of AMERICAN
immediately after the merger, or (iii) within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] after AMERICAN acquires another Air Carrier with annual
revenues exceeding [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] For
purposes of clause (ii) above, in the event the merger referred to in such
clause is the second step in a two-step transaction, the "unaffiliated" status
of the third party and the initial stock ownership of AMERICAN's shareholders
will be determined immediately prior to the first step in such two-step
transaction. If AMERICAN terminates the agreement for convenience during the
first [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the term of this
Agreement in accordance with clause (iii) above, AMERICAN shall pay TSG [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

24.6      TERMINATION BECAUSE OF ACQUISITION OF TSG. If any entity with annual
airline transportation revenue of [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] acquires control (the power to direct the management or affairs) of
TSG, then AMERICAN may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement upon [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] Notice; provided AMERICAN gives
Notice within [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the date on
which such entity acquired TSG.

                 Article XXV -- Transition Assistance; Survival

25.1      TRANSITION ASSISTANCE BY TSG. Upon Expiration or termination of this
Agreement for any reason whatsoever, AMERICAN and TSG agree that TSG shall
provide assistance to AMERICAN to obtain services to replace the TSG Services in
accordance with this Section 25.1.

                    A.    During the Wind-down Period, TSG shall provide to
the Airline Group or the Successor Provider any and all assistance reasonably
requested by AMERICAN to allow the TSG Services to continue without interruption
or adverse effect and to facilitate the orderly transfer of responsibility for
the TSG Services to AMERICAN or the Successor Provider.

                                                                         Page 72
<PAGE>


                          (1)    The assistance to be provided to the Airline
Group by TSG shall include the services listed on Exhibit L: Transition
Assistance Services Description.

                          (2)    TSG Services provided during the Wind-down
Period are at [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] until [TEXT
OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after the Expiration Date or the
Termination Date, as applicable, and are at [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] thereafter, except as expressly set forth in Subsection B.

                    B.    In the instance of termination pursuant to Subsection
B of Section "24.1, TERMINATION FOR BREACH" or pursuant to Section "24.4,
TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE," TSG shall provide the Transition Assistance after
the Expiration Date or the Termination Date, as the case may be, at market
rates. In the instance of termination pursuant to Subsection A of Section "24.1,
TERMINATION FOR BREACH," or pursuant to Section "24.2, TERMINATION FOR
INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE," TSG shall provide the Transition Assistance throughout
the Wind-down Period at [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. TSG
shall use any budgeted personnel time to provide assistance and the services in
Subsection C below, to the extent reasonably possible. If the assistance
requires resources, in addition to those regularly utilized in the daily
performance of TSG Services, AMERICAN will pay TSG for such assistance on a time
and materials basis [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] If the
Agreement was terminated pursuant to Subsection B of Section "24.1, TERMINATION
FOR BREACH," then TSG's obligations to perform Transition Assistance shall be
conditioned upon monthly receipt of payment from AMERICAN in advance of
estimated monthly amounts due for such services.

                    C.    Upon termination or Expiration of this Agreement, or,
with respect to any particular AG Data or AG Customer Data, at such earlier time
as the same shall no longer be required by TSG in order to render services
hereunder, AG Data and AG Customer Data shall be, at AMERICAN's election and
expense, (i) erased from the data files maintained by TSG, and/or (ii) returned
to AMERICAN by TSG in a form reasonably requested by AMERICAN, and/or (iii)
stored by TSG for such period during the term of this Agreement as AMERICAN may
request and then either returned to AMERICAN or erased.

                    D.    Prior to providing any of the foregoing assistance to
a Successor Provider, TSG shall be entitled to receive from such Successor
Provider, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to TSG, written assurances
that (i) such Successor Provider will maintain at all times the confidentiality
of any TSG Confidential Information, including software or materials disclosed
or provided to, or learned by, such Successor Provider in connection therewith,
and (ii) such Successor Provider will use such information, software or
materials exclusively for the benefit of the Airline Group. If such Successor
Provider executes an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit N:
Non-disclosure/Non-competition Agreement, the Successor Provider shall be deemed
to have provided the written assurances required by this Subsection D.

                    E.    Upon AMERICAN's request, TSG shall provide
consultation services for at least [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] after expiration of the Wind-down Period, to be charged by TSG at
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] for similar services. As part
of such consultation services, TSG will retrieve, manipulate,
convert, transfer AG Data and AG Customer Data as required by the Successor
Provider at Current Rates.
                                                                         Page 73

                    B.     Article XI - Software and Intellectual Property.

                    C.     Section "12.5, MARKETING RIGHTS AFTER EXPIRATION

                                          Article   XXVI -- Insurance

26.1      TSG'S INSURANCE IN GENERAL. TSG, at its own expense, shall establish
and maintain general liability, workers compensation, automotive liability and
property damage, and computer fraud protection insurance coverage for all TSG
employees and Independent Contractors involved in providing TSG Services or
New/Out-of-scope Services.

26.2      AG BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE. . If AMERICAN requests in writing
that TSG obtain insurance coverage on behalf of any member of the Airline Group,
including business interruption coverage, and provided AMERICAN reimburses TSG
for all out-of-pocket costs of obtaining such coverage, then TSG shall obtain
such coverage requested and designate AMERICAN as the named insured.

                        Article XXVII -- Auditing Rights

27.1      OPERATIONAL AUDIT. An Airline Group member and its representatives, at
the Airline Group member's expense and upon reasonable Notice to TSG, shall have
the right to conduct an audit of TSG's operations (i) on an annual basis and
(ii) more frequently as reasonably

                                                                         Page 74
<PAGE>


requested by the Airline Group member to the extent that such audit will not
unreasonably disrupt the operations of TSG, in order to verify that TSG is
exercising reasonable operational procedures in accordance with customary
standards in the data processing industry in its performance of the TSG
Services and to confirm TSG's performance of its obligations hereunder. TSG
will provide the Airline Group member and its representatives (subject to the
execution by any third-party representative of an agreement substantially in
the form of Exhibit J: Non-disclosure/Confidentiality Agreement) access to
the TSG facilities at which TSG is performing the TSG Services, to TSG's
personnel, to the Airline Group's existing data and work product and to that
being developed by TSG hereunder at such facilities, and to reasonably
related documentation. To the extent applicable to the TSG Services, such
audit may include an audit of (i) software development practices and
procedures, (ii) application and operating systems, (iii) general controls
and security practices and procedures, (iv) disaster recovery and back-up
procedures, (v) invoice processing, (vi) service level compliance, and (vii)
resource consumption. TSG will provide to the Airline Group and its
representatives any assistance that they reasonably require in connection
therewith at no additional charge to the Airline Group member, except that
the Airline Group member shall pay TSG, at Current Rates for any technical
resources and application development time utilized by TSG and any other
reasonable additional costs of TSG necessary for the audit and not otherwise
provided to the Airline Group hereunder. The Airline Group may, at its
discretion, provide to TSG a copy of the final audit report, or a portion
thereof, resulting from each such audit upon its completion, provided,
however, that if the Airline Group does not disclose any such report or
portion thereof, such report or portion shall not be the basis of any claim
asserted by the Airline Group against TSG. In conducting each operational
audit, Airline Group members shall not be entitled to review any confidential
or proprietary information of any third party and shall not materially
interfere with the ability of TSG to perform the TSG Services or services for
any other customer. For the purposes of this Section 27.1, the Airline
Group's representatives shall be deemed to include any auditors or inspectors
designated by any state or federal agency to audit the Airline Group's
business.

27.2      RECORD-KEEPING AUDITS OF CHARGES. TSG shall maintain complete and
accurate books, records and accounts, in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, consistently applied, to support and document all Fees
to Airline Group members. TSG shall retain such records for
[TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] after creation, or for such
longer period as required to comply with government requirements. In
addition, TSG shall retain such records for the duration of any audit
conducted pursuant to this Article XXVII and for the duration of any Dispute.
TSG shall permit the Airline Group or its representatives (subject to the
execution by any third-party representative of an agreement substantially in
the form of Exhibit J: Non-disclosure/Confidentiality Agreement) access to
TSG's facilities to perform an audit of TSG's records to the extent necessary
to verify TSG's charges billed to the Airline Group member (i) on an annual
basis and (ii) more frequently as reasonably requested by the Airline Group
member if and to the extent that such audit will not unreasonably disrupt the
operations of TSG. TSG need not provide the Airline Group member with access
to cost data where the cost is not the basis for product service prices/fees
or termination fees. The Airline Group may, at its discretion, provide to TSG
a copy of the audit report, or a portion thereof, resulting from each such
audit upon its completion. As soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the
parties will review any audit report (or portion thereof) provided to TSG and
work in good faith to agree upon any reimbursement of

                                                                         Page 75

<PAGE>

charges or additional payments due to either party and any appropriate future
adjustments to TSG's charges and practices. TSG shall promptly forward to the
Airline Group member the full amount of all overcharges revealed by such
audit. The Airline Group member shall promptly pay TSG the full amount of all
undercharges revealed by such audit, but may also offset the reasonable audit
cost against amounts due to TSG. Any financial audit performed or caused to
be performed under this Section 27.2 shall be at the Airline Group member's
expense, except (a) as provided in the preceding sentence or (b) that if such
audit demonstrates that TSG's invoiced charges for the relevant period exceed
the correct charges for that period, excluding (from the invoiced and the
correct charges) those Third-party Pass Through Charges that are passed
through pursuant to this Agreement, by more than five percent (5%), TSG shall
pay or reimburse the Airline Group member for the reasonable costs of such
audit. In conducting any financial audit, the Airline Group shall not be
entitled to review any confidential or proprietary information of any third
party, except that the Airline Group shall be entitled to review any
third-party invoices upon which TSG based any cost-plus or pass-through
charges made to the Airline Group or any invoices necessary to ensure
compliance with Sections "7.12, MOST FAVORED CUSTOMER," "11.4, OFFSET OF
FEES," or "11.5, ROYALTY AFTER EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION" (subject to any
confidentiality restrictions that may apply to TSG with respect to such
invoices). If confidentiality restrictions apply to any such invoices, an
officer of TSG shall certify in the form of an affidavit, duly notarized, as
to the veracity of information provided by TSG to the Airline Group
concerning the contents of such invoices. An Airline Group member, at its
expense, may use an independent accountant, under confidentiality
restrictions, to verify the contents of such invoices.

27.3      TERM OF AUDITS. During the term of this Agreement, the Airline Group
shall have the right to have all of the audits specified in this Article
encompass a period of time equal to the full current year and two years prior to
the current year for a total period of thirty-six months. Upon termination or
Expiration of this Agreement, the Airline Group shall have the right to conduct
an audit pursuant to Section "27.2, RECORD-KEEPING AUDITS OF CHARGES" within one
year after the date of such termination or Expiration, or an audit at any time
after termination or Expiration pursuant to this Article as may otherwise be
required by any state or federal agency.

     Article XXIX -- AMERICAN Assistance to TSG for TSG to Provide Services

29.1  AMERICAN SUPPORT TO TSG.

          A. Should TSG request support for its outsourcing deals, including
training assistance, from AMERICAN, for TSG to perform its obligations to Air
Carriers, with AMERICAN's support obligations effective until
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], AMERICAN will use all
reasonable efforts to provide such support upon reasonable advance Notice
from TSG, subject to AMERICAN's resource constraints. TSG will credit
AMERICAN [TEXT OMITTED -CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] for the support
work performed by AMERICAN personnel on TSG's behalf pursuant to this Section
29.1. For AMERICAN employees that do not have established billable hour rates
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] the Parties will negotiate
in good faith appropriate hourly billable rates to be used in determining the
applicable credit to AMERICAN for performance of support services on behalf
of TSG. [TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. Unless otherwise
agreed to, all travel time as it relates to this Section 29.1 is billable to
TSG. In addition, TSG will reimburse AMERICAN for any reasonable and
necessary travel and incidental expenses incurred by such AMERICAN personnel
in performance of the support work for TSG. TSG further agrees to provide
AMERICAN personnel performing such support work travel arrangements similar
to those TSG uses for its own employees should such AMERICAN personnel be
required to travel in order to provide such support. TSG also agrees to
provide and to pay for office space and other commercially reasonable
expenses, including Device Support and
                                                                         Page 78
<PAGE>


Voice Network Services, incurred by any member of the Airline Group as a
result of providing support to TSG.

          B. TSG will reimburse AMERICAN for all reasonable costs that
AMERICAN incurs in providing the support services (including necessary
"start-up" and "wind-down" costs) even if the resources for which those costs
were incurred were subsequently determined to be unnecessary, provided
AMERICAN advises TSG of such costs and TSG approves such costs prior to the
costs being incurred. AMERICAN may refuse to provide such support from time
to time if (i) AMERICAN believes in good faith that it cannot offer such
support without causing a material adverse effect, including, but not limited
to, anti-trust and competitive advantage issues, on AMERICAN operations (ii)
AMERICAN's managing director of security does not reasonably approve the
safety of the locations in which AMERICAN employees will work, or (iii) TSG
fails to provide AMERICAN prior approval to reimburse AMERICAN's reasonable
costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AMERICAN shall not be obligated to
provide TSG its key personnel to provide the support services
[TEXT OMITTED - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

          C. Nothing in this Section 29.1 is meant to replace or eliminate
the services that have been historically performed by AMERICAN for TSG in
support of FOS Multihost.

                     Article XXX -- Miscellaneous Provisions

30.1  ASSIGNMENT. Except as provided in Subsection D of Section "9.6,
COOPERATION," Section "3.13, EFFECT OF DIVESTITURES, MERGERS AND
ACQUISITIONS," or in the next two (2) sentences, neither Party may assign any
of its rights or delegate any of its duties or obligations under this
Agreement without the other Party's Consent. AMERICAN may assign its rights
and delegate its duties and obligations under this Agreement as a whole as
part of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets and
business, including by merger or consolidation, to a Person (i) that assumes
and has the ability to perform AMERICAN's duties and obligations under this
Agreement; and (ii) the core or a principal part of the business of which is
not competitive with the core or a principal part of the business of TSG. TSG
may assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations under this
Agreement as a whole as part of the sale or transfer of all or substantially
all of its assets and business involved in any manner in providing TSG
Services, including by merger or consolidation, to a Person (a) that assumes
and has the ability to perform TSG's duties and obligations under this
Agreement; and (b) the core or a principal part of the business of which is
not competitive with the core or a principal part of the business of the
Airline Group. Any attempted assignment or delegation of any rights, duties,
or obligations in violation of this Section 30.1 shall be void and without
effect. Nothing in this Section 30.1, however, precludes TSG from
subcontracting the performance of any of the TSG Services as permitted by
this Agreement or precludes AMERICAN from extending the right to receive the
TSG Services to the American Related Entities.

30.2 AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. This Agreement may be amended or modified, and any
provision of this Agreement may be discharged or waived, only by a document
signed by the Party against which the amendment, modification, discharge, or
waiver is sought to be enforced.
                                                                         Page 79

30.3 INTEGRATION. This Agreement supersedes:

Group and TSG dated as January 1, 1995, and the service level agreements
entered before the Effective Date under that document;

                    B.  Any and all prior or contemporaneous oral agreements
or understandings between the Parties regarding the subject matter of this
Agreement; and

                    C. Any and all prior written agreements or understandings
between the Parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, except
for those (other than the one described in Subsection A of this Section 30.3)
entered into by representatives of the Parties or their predecessors who were
at Level 6 or above when such agreements or understandings were entered into
with the knowledge and consent of such representative's supervising officer
(which agreements or understandings shall remain effective).

30.4  SEVERABILITY. If any provision, or portion thereof, of this Agreement
is for any reason found to be unenforceable, such provision or portion
thereof shall automatically be deemed modified to the minimum extent
necessary to permit it to be found to be enforceable, or, if such
modification is impracticable, such provision or portion thereof shall be
deemed severed from this Agreement. In either such event, all other portions
of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain enforceable.

30.5  SUCCESSORS. This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the
Parties and their respective legal representatives, successors, and permitted
assigns.

30.6  GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement must be interpreted or construed, and its
validity determined and performance enforced, under Texas law.

30.7  REASONABLENESS. As concerns every provision of this Agreement, TSG and
AMERICAN agree to act reasonably and in good faith unless a provision
expressly states that AMERICAN or TSG may act in its sole discretion.

30.8  COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts, with the same effect as if all signatories had signed the same
document. All counterparts must be construed together to constitute one, and
the same, document.

30.9  FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Party shall take such actions, upon request of
the other Party and in addition to the actions specified in this Agreement,
as may be necessary or reasonably appropriate to implement or give effect to
this Agreement, including cooperating in the completion of copyright
registration documents.
