RESTRICTED STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT    
    


        RESTRICTED STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of October 20, 2003, between Travel Transaction Processing Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Holding"), and the purchaser whose name appears on the signature page hereof (the "Purchaser"),
pursuant to the Travel Transaction Processing Corporation Stock Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the "Plan"). Capitalized
terms that are not defined herein shall have the same meanings given to such terms in the Plan. 


W I T N E S S E T H:


        WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of Holding (the "Board") has adopted the Plan to provide officers and key employees of Holding and its
Subsidiaries with opportunities to purchase equity interests in Holding; 



        WHEREAS,
the Purchaser desires to subscribe for and purchase from Holding pursuant to the Plan the aggregate number of shares of Holding's Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Common Stock"), set forth on the signature page hereof (each a "Share" and, collectively,
the "Shares"), at a purchase price of $0.31914894 per share; and 


        WHEREAS,
Holding desires to sell the Shares to the Purchaser on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 



        NOW,
THEREFORE, to implement the foregoing and in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 


        1.     Purchase and Sale of Shares. 


        (a)    Purchase of Shares.    Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby
subscribes for and shall purchase, and Holding shall sell to the Purchaser, the Shares at a purchase price of $0.31914894 per Share, at the Closing provided for in Section 2(a) hereof, such
Shares being issued pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement, and the Purchaser hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy
of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions herein and therein. To the extent any provision herein is inconsistent with the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall apply.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Holding shall have no obligation to sell any Common Stock to (i) any person who is not an
employee of Holding or its Subsidiary at the time that such Common Stock is to be sold or (ii) any person who is a resident of a jurisdiction in which
the sale of Common Stock to such person would constitute a violation of the securities, "blue sky" or other laws of such jurisdiction. 



        (b)    Consideration.    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver to Holding
at the Closing referred to in Section 2(a) hereof immediately available funds in an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Shares set forth on the signature page hereof (the
"Consideration"), it being understood that the Purchaser may use any signing bonus payable to him in connection with his entering into the employment
agreement with Worldspan and Holding dated as of the date hereof, less all applicable tax withholding, in satisfaction of the Consideration Amount. 



        2.     Closing. 


        (a)    Time and Place.    Except as otherwise agreed by Holding and the Purchaser, the closing (the
"Closing") of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be held at the offices of Worldspan on the date hereof (the
"Closing Date"). 


        (b)    Delivery by Holding.    At the Closing, Holding will deliver a stock certificate registered in the Purchaser's
name and representing the Shares, which certificate shall bear the legends set forth in 





 



Section 5(b),
to the Secretary of Holding, to be held in custody until the Restricted Period shall have lapsed. 


        (c)    Delivery by the Purchaser.    At the Closing, the Purchaser will deliver to Holding the consideration referred
to in Section 1(b) hereof and a duly executed and undated instrument of transfer or assignment in blank. 


        3.     Restricted Period. 


        (a)    Generally.    All Shares received by the Purchaser under this Agreement are subject to the restrictions
contained herein and as provided under the Plan, and, so long as the Shares are subject to such restrictions, are referred to herein and therein as "Restricted
Stock." The Restricted Stock shall be subject to forfeiture by the Purchaser prior to the lapse of the Restricted Period in accordance with the terms herein and in the Plan.
Except as provided in Section 11.1 of the Plan, none of the Restricted Stock may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered until the Restricted Period has
ceased, and then only in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement and Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement. 


        (b)    Restricted Period.    Except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, or in the Plan, the Restricted
Period shall lapse as to 20% of the Shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the Closing (each such anniversary, the "Vesting Date" as to the
applicable 20% tranche of the Shares), which lapses shall be cumulative, subject to the Purchaser's continuous employment with Holding or its Subsidiary from the Closing to such anniversary. 


        (c)    Committee Discretion.    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Committee shall be
authorized in its discretion, based upon its review and evaluation of the performance of the Purchaser and of Holding, to accelerate the vesting of any Restricted Stock under this Agreement, at such
times (including, without limitation, following the Purchaser's termination of employment) and upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem advisable. 


        4.     Repurchase Option. 


        (a)    Voluntary Resignation.    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of purchase, upon the
Purchaser's Voluntary Resignation, Holding and then CVC and OTPP and their respective affiliates (in accordance with the procedures described in Section 4(d)) may
(i) repurchase all or any portion of the Restricted Stock then held by such Purchaser for which the Restricted Period has not lapsed as of the date of
termination for a cash payment equal to the purchase price of such Restricted Stock to the Purchaser and (ii) repurchase all or any portion of the
Shares for which the Restricted Period has lapsed for a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares (or the portion thereof so purchased). 


        (b)    Termination for Cause.    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of purchase, upon
termination of the Purchaser's employment by Holding or its Subsidiary for Cause, Holding and then CVC and OTPP and their respective affiliates (in accordance with the procedures described in
Section 4(d)) may repurchase all or any portion of the Shares then held by such Purchaser for a cash payment equal to the lesser of (x) Fair
Market Value of the Shares (or the portion thereof so purchased), and (y) the Purchaser's purchase price for the Shares. 


        (c)    Termination for Any Other Reason.    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of purchase, upon
any termination of the Purchaser's employment with Holding or its Subsidiary other than a termination for Cause or a Voluntary Resignation, Holding and then CVC and OTPP and their respective
affiliates (in accordance with the procedures described in Section 4(d)) may (i) repurchase all or any portion of the Restricted Stock then held
by the Purchaser for which the Restricted Period has not lapsed as of the date of termination for a cash payment equal to the Purchaser's purchase price of such Restricted Stock plus interest accrued
from the date of purchase at 


2





 



the
10-year United States treasury rate and (ii) repurchase the Shares for which the Restricted Period has lapsed for a cash payment equal
to the Fair Market Value of the Shares (or the portion thereof so purchased). 



        (d)    Procedures for the Repurchase of Shares.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
repurchase of Shares pursuant to this Section 4 shall not be effected prior to the expiration of a period of, and the Fair Market Value shall be determined as of a date, at least six months and
one day from the date such Shares were purchased by the Purchaser. Holding shall have an exclusive right to repurchase Shares until the First Repurchase Date. If Holding fails to repurchase all of a
terminated Participant's Shares prior to the First Repurchase Date, then Holding shall notify both CVC and OTPP within three business days after the First Repurchase Date, and CVC and OTPP shall have
an additional 30 days from the First Repurchase Date to purchase such Participant's Shares in such proportions as each shall determine, provided that if CVC and OTPP cannot agree on the
proportion that each shall purchase, then each shall be entitled to purchase that percentage of such terminated Participant's Shares that will result in CVC and OTPP owning the same percentage of
Common Stock relative to each other before and after such purchase (such percentage calculated by treating all Shares as Common Stock). 


        (e)    Use of Proceeds.    If Holding elects to repurchase any Shares pursuant to this Section 4, Holding may
apply the proceeds from such repurchase to any and all outstanding obligations of the Purchaser due Holding or guaranteed by Holding in respect of the Shares. 



        5.     Purchaser's Representations, Warranties and Covenants. 


        (a)    Investment Intention.    The Purchaser represents and warrants that the Purchaser is acquiring the Shares
solely for the Purchaser's own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser will not, directly or
indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of any Shares), or any
interest therein or any rights relating thereto, except in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the
"Act"), all applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws, Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement and Section 5 of the Registration
Rights Agreement. The Purchaser further understands, acknowledges and agrees that none of the Shares may be transferred, sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless the provisions of
Section 3 shall have been satisfied or have expired. Any attempt by the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, to offer, transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Shares or
any interest therein, or any rights relating thereto, without complying with the provisions of this Agreement, Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement and Section 5 of the Registration
Rights Agreement, as such agreements shall be amended from time to time, shall be void and of no effect. 


        (b)    Legend.    The Purchaser acknowledges that the certificate or certificates representing the Shares shall bear
the following legends or other appropriate legends: 




(i)    "THE
SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE
OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF (EACH, A "TRANSFER") UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL IS RECEIVED IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED." 


(ii)    "THE
SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO (A) THE TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK

SUBSCRIPTION
AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003; (B) THE PROVISIONS OF THE TRAVEL TRANSACTION PROCESSING CORPORATION STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN, DATED AS OF
JUNE 30, 2003 (THE "INCENTIVE PLAN"); (C) THE PROVISIONS OF A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE ISSUER AND CERTAIN
STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE "STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT") AND (D) A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE ISSUER AND
CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT") AND NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY IT ARE TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE
RESTRICTED STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, THE INCENTIVE PLAN, THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT AND THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, COPIES OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE
ISSUER. NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SHARES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE ISSUER, AND SUCH TRANSFER SHALL BE VOIDABLE, UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY EVIDENCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH PLAN AND
AGREEMENTS." 


(iii)      "THE
ISSUER WILL FURNISH WITHOUT CHARGE TO EACH STOCKHOLDER WHO SO REQUESTS THE POWERS, DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RELATIVE, PARTICIPATING, OPTIONAL OR OTHER
SPECIAL RIGHTS OF EACH CLASS OR SERIES OF SHARES AUTHORIZED TO BE ISSUED AND THE QUALIFICATIONS, LIMITATIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF SUCH PREFERENCES AND/OR RIGHTS." 





        (c)    Securities Law Matters.    The Purchaser acknowledges receipt of advice from Holding that
(i) the Shares have not been registered under the Act or qualified under any state or foreign securities or "blue sky" laws,
(ii) it is not anticipated that there will be any public market for the Shares, (iii) the Shares must be
held indefinitely and the Purchaser must continue to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Shares unless the Shares are subsequently registered under the Act and such state laws or an
exemption from registration is available, (iv) Rule 144 promulgated under the Act
("Rule 144") is not presently available with respect to the sales of the Shares, and Holding has made no covenant to make Rule 144
available, (v) when and if the Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance upon Rule 144, such disposition can be made only in
accordance with the terms and conditions of such Rule, the Plan, this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, (vi)
Holding does not plan to file reports with the Commission or make public information concerning Holding available unless required to do so by law or in connection with its financing arrangements,
(vii) if the exemption afforded by Rule 144 is not available, sales of the Shares may be difficult to effect because of the absence of public
information concerning Holding, (viii) a restrictive legend in the form heretofore set forth shall be placed on the certificates representing the Shares
and (ix) a notation shall be made in the appropriate records of Holding indicating that the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer set forth in
Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement and, if Holding should in the future engage the services of a stock transfer agent, appropriate stop-transfer restrictions will be issued
to such transfer agent with respect to the Shares. 


        (d)    Compliance with Rule 144.    When and if the Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance
upon Rule 144, the Purchaser shall transmit to Holding an executed copy of Form 144 (if required by Rule 144) no later than the time such form is required to be transmitted to the
Commission for filing and such other documentation as Holding may reasonably require to assure compliance with Rule 144 in connection with such disposition. 


        (e)    Ability to Bear Risk.    The Purchaser represents and warrants that

Purchaser's status as a qualifying investor in connection with this private offering of Shares to the Purchaser. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser represents and warrants that
(x) no representation or warranty, express or implied, whether written or oral, as to the financial condition, results of operations, prospects,

right to receive cash and other dividends, if any, as may be declared on the Restricted Stock from time to time, and the right to receive cash proceeds payable with respect to the Restricted Stock as

exchange of the Restricted Stock for other securities, by reclassification, reorganization, distribution, liquidation or otherwise shall have the same status and bear the same legend as the Restricted

this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns. Except for the rights given to CVC and OTPP and their respective affiliates in Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(c) and 4(d), nothing in this
Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than the parties to this Agreement or their respective successors or assigns any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or in respect of any agreement or any provision contained herein.

with any representations, warranties, covenants or 


7





 



agreements
contained herein. The waiver by either party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach and no
failure by a party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such party's rights or privileges hereunder or shall be deemed a waiver of such party's rights to exercise
the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder. 



        (d)    Amendment.    This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written agreement executed by
the Purchaser and Holding and, prior to a Public Offering, any amendment, modification or supplementation to Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(c) and 4(d) that adversely affects the rights of either or both of

warranties, oral or written, express or implied, between the parties hereto and their respective Subsidiaries, representatives and agents in respect of the subject matter hereof. 


        (f)    Tax Withholding.    Whenever any cash payment is to be made hereunder, Holding or any Subsidiary shall have the
power to withhold, or require the Purchaser to remit to Holding or such Subsidiary, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements relating to such transaction,
and Holding or such Subsidiary may defer the payment of cash until such requirements are satisfied. 



        (g)    Beneficiary Designation.    The Purchaser may from time to time name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may
