Section 1.1   Grant of License.  Each
Party, in its capacity as a specified Licensor under the applicable schedule(s)
attached hereto (each, a “Schedule”), hereby grants to each other Party
that is specified as a Licensee under each such applicable Schedule, a license
to Licensor’s rights in, to and under the Licensed Materials set forth on each
such applicable Schedule for use in accordance with the Scope of Use set forth
on such Schedule, effective as of the Effective Date (unless otherwise set

between the applicable Licensor(s) and Licensee(s) under such Schedule).  Each License Grant shall be non-exclusive,
fully paid up and royalty-free, irrevocable (except as provided in Section
5.2(a)), worldwide, and non-sublicensable, except, in each case, to the extent
expressly provided otherwise in the applicable Schedule.

 

Section 1.2  Modifications

Maintenance and/or Support Fees.

(a)       License
Fees.

(i)  In
exchange for the License Grants to the Travelport Parties by the Orbitz Parties
made pursuant to Schedules 1 through 9 hereto, Travelport or one of its
Affilaites shall pay to a designated Orbitz Party, a single, flat, one-time, upfront

(the “Travelport License Fee”).

the Orbitz Parties by the Travelport Parties made pursuant to Schedules 1
through 9 hereto, an Orbitz Party shall pay to a designated Travelport Party, a
single, flat, one-time, upfront license fee of $[____], within sixty (60) days
following the Effective Date (the “Orbitz License Fee”).

(iii)  If
the Parties agree, the payments may be offset, such that Travelport or one of
its Affiliates shall pay to the designated Orbitz Party, the difference between

fees shall be due from one Party to the other. The identity of the designated
parties for payment shall be provided by written notice no less than fifteen
(15) days before payment is due.

and Support fee, which fee shall be as specified on the applicable Schedule.  The initial Maintenance and Support period
shall be set forth in the applicable Schedule. 
Upon expiration of the initial Maintenance and Support period, each applicable
Licensee may separately elect to renew Maintenance and Support for additional
periods.  The applicable Licensors shall
offer to renew Maintenance and Support to each applicable Licensee upon the
terms and conditions contained in this

Agreement, the applicable Schedule and any specific
Maintenance and Support agreement entered into between the applicable Parties,
for so long as the applicable Licensors are offering such or similar services
to their other customers, but in any event, for at least as long as set forth
in the applicable Schedule.  Such renewal
shall be made pursuant to a written agreement or amendment signed by the applicable
Parties’ authorized representatives.

(c)  Taxes and Other
Assessments.  Each Licensee shall be responsible for all Taxes
that may be imposed by a Governmental Entity on any and all payments with
respect to a License Grant  made to a
Licensor by such Licensee.  The Parties
shall cooperate to avoid, or minimize if unavoidable, any multiple taxation by
any Governmental Entities.

Section 1.4  Acknowledgement
of Ownership; Reservation of Rights.  Each Licensee acknowledges
and agrees that all Licensed Materials to which such Licensee receives a
License Grant hereunder are the sole and exclusive property of the applicable
Licensor, and that the applicable Licensor retains all right, title, and
interest therein.  Any and all rights in,
to and under the Licensed Materials not expressly granted pursuant to a License
Grant hereunder are reserved to the applicable Licensor.

Section 1.5  Delivery.

(a)  Within five (5)
business days following the Effective Date (or, if specified, such time set
forth in the applicable Schedule), each Licensor will deliver the applicable
Licensed Materials, in their then-current form and in the appropriate physical
and/or electronic media, to each applicable Licensee at such address(es) as
such Licensee shall designate.  Each
Licensor will also so deliver to each applicable Licensee, on or immediately
before such time Licensee ceases to be an Affiliate, any portions of the
applicable Licensed Materials that have materially changed since the initial
delivery.  Included as part of each
Schedule shall be a listing of all technology and other intellectual property
not included in the Licensed Materials but necessary for use of the Licensed Materials
as currently used by the Licensor and its Affiliates.

(b)  In addition to the
other provisions of this Article I, for six (6) months following the date
hereof or date of delivery of the Licensed Materials (at the applicable
Licensee’s election), each Licensor shall provide reasonable assistance, as
requested by each Licensee in its implementation and use of the Licensed
Materials, including in the form of discussions, telephone conversations,
correspondence and other consultation and communications between technically
qualified personnel.  The applicable
Licensee shall pay Licensor’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection
with the foregoing assistance.  Following
such six (6) month period, assistance will be provided at Licensor’s then prevailing
rate.  The foregoing is subject to each
Licensor’s material resource constraints with respect to production or other
revenue-generating resources.

Section 1.6  Maintenance,
Updates and Development Support.  Each Licensee acknowledges and
agrees that (a) the exercise of its rights under all applicable License Grants
is at its sole risk and liability, and (b) except as set forth on the
applicable Schedule, it has no rights to any updates, additions or replacements
to the applicable Licensed Materials, or any development, maintenance, support
or other services related thereto, from any other Party, from and after the
Effective Date.

Section 1.7  Cooperation.  Each
Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party in all matters relating
to the License Grants and any related services or assistance provided in
connection with a License Grant and to minimize the expense, distraction and
disturbance to each Party, shall perform all obligations hereunder in good
faith and in accordance with principles of fair dealing and shall comply with
all applicable laws and regulations.

Section 1.8  Additional Terms and
Conditions.  In addition to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Licensors and Licensees under each Schedule shall also be bound
by any additional terms and conditions set forth in such Schedule as if such
terms and conditions were set forth in this Agreement.

Section 1.9  Assignment of Licensed
Materials.  For the avoidance of doubt, if a Licensor assigns all
or any portion of its right, title or interest in or to any Licensed Materials,
such assignment shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
including all applicable License Grants.

ARTICLE
II

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION

Section 2.1  Prosecution
and Maintenance.  Except as otherwise expressly set forth in a
Schedule, the applicable Licensor shall have the sole right and discretion to
prosecute and maintain any patents and any trademark, copyright and other
intellectual property registrations or applications with respect to, or
included in, any Licensed Materials.  Any
such prosecution and maintenance shall be at such Licensor’s sole cost and
expense, unless any Licensor and Licensee expressly agree otherwise.  Licensor expressly is not undertaking any
obligation to prosecute, maintain or police any of its patents or other
intellectual property, except as may be expressly provided in a Schedule.

Section
2.2  Notices of Infringement.  If a Licensee becomes
aware of any infringement or other violation of any Licensed Materials, such
Licensee shall promptly notify the applicable Licensor.

Section 2.3  Enforcement
and Defense of Licensed Materials and Patents.  Except as
otherwise expressly set forth in a Schedule, the applicable Licensor shall have
the sole right and discretion to (a) initiate, defend, and control, at their
own expense, all assertions, actions, suits and proceedings with respect to
infringement or other violation of any Licensed Materials, and (b) defend, and
control, at its own expense, 

 

 

5

 

all
assertions, actions, suits and proceedings by Third Parties that assert the
invalidity or unenforceability of any Licensed Materials (each, an “Infringement
Action”).  Licensor shall be entitled
to keep all proceeds arising from any such assertions, actions, suits and
proceedings brought by it and any settlements or compromises thereof.

Section 2.4  Bankruptcy-Related
Matters.   Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event a Licensor becomes
subject to any bankruptcy or similar proceedings:  (a) all License Grants to each applicable
Licensee shall be deemed fully retained by and vested in such Licensee as
protected intellectual property rights under Section 365(n) of the United
States Bankruptcy Code (and similar laws in other jurisdictions) (“Section
365(n)”); and (b) each Licensee shall have all of the rights afforded to
licensees under Section 365(n).  The
Parties agree that upon any election by an applicable Licensee pursuant to
Section 365(n)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, such Licensee shall be entitled to
continue to exercise the license granted under this Agreement.  In the event of commencement of bankruptcy
proceedings by or against a Licensee, such Licensee or  trustee in bankruptcy, as applicable, shall
be entitled to assume the applicable License Grants and shall be entitled to
retain all such License Grants.

ARTICLE III

CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 3.1  Protection
of Confidential Information.  In
connection with the License Grants from each applicable Licensor to each
applicable Licensee, each such Licensee may receive confidential and proprietary information of such
Licensor, including proprietary information concerning inventions, trade
secrets, confidential know-how and other confidential technical, business or
operational information related to the businesses of such Licensor (the “Confidential
Information”).  All Confidential
Information shall remain the exclusive property of the applicable Licensor, and
the applicable Licensee may not disclose any Confidential Information of such
Licensor to any Third Party, provided that the receiving party may disclose, on
a need-to-know basis, such Confidential Information to its third party
subcontractors who have signed non-disclosure agreements with the receiving
party, and/or to its current employees, consultants, agents, officers,
directors and/or legal or financial representatives.  Each applicable Licensee shall maintain the
Confidential Information of the applicable Licensors with with at least the
same degree of care (which in no event shall be less than reasonable care) as
it uses to protect its own Confidential Information.  In furtherance of such obligation, each such
Licensee shall instruct its employees and Third Party contractors and
consultants, as well as its Affiliates, as to the confidentiality obligations
hereunder.

Section 3.2  Limitations.  With
respect to each Licensee, Confidential Information of a Licensor will not
include information which:  (a) becomes
available to the public through no fault or negligence of the applicable
Licensee, (b) was already rightfully known to the applicable Licensee (other
than by previous disclosure by the applicable Licensor) as of the date hereof
and not subject to any duty of confidentiality to 

 

 

6

 

the
Licensor or its Affiliates, (c) is independently developed by such Licensee or
its Affiliates without reference to any Confidential Information, or (d) after
the date hereof, is lawfully and in good faith made available or known to such
Licensee by a Third Party not connected with the applicable Licensor and
without an obligation of confidence to such Licensor, directly or indirectly.

Section 3.3  Required Disclosure.  If
a Licensee is required by order of any court or other Governmental Entity to
disclose any Confidential Information in its possession, such Licensee shall
provide the applicable Licensor with prompt written notice of any such
requirement, so that such Licensor may seek an appropriate protective order or
waive compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.  Such Licensee will not oppose action by such
Licensor to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance
that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information, and
will cooperate and comply with, at such Licensor’s expense, all reasonable
requests by such Licensor related thereto. 
For purposes of this Section 3.3, any disclosure made in connection with
the disclosure requirements of the securities laws or regulations of any
country shall be deemed to be “an order of any court or other Governmental
Entity.”

MISCELLANEOUS

Section
6.1  Assignment.

(a)  No (i) Licensee may
assign or otherwise transfer a License Agreement, or any of its rights,
interests or obligations thereunder, without the prior written consent of the
Licensor(s) under such License Agreement, and (ii) Licensor may, with respect
to any Licensee under a License Agreement,  assign or otherwise transfer such License
Agreement, or any of its rights, interests or obligations thereunder, without
the prior written consent of such Licensee under such License Agreement, except,
in each case, that any Party may assign or otherwise transfer any or all of the
foregoing to an Affiliate of such Party or in connection with a merger, sale,
transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the portion of
such party’s business to which the License Agreement relates.

(b)  In the event that an
Affiliate of a Licensee ceases to be an Affiliate of such Licensee (such
Affiliate, a “Divested Affiliate”), any sublicenses to such Divested
Affiliate under any License Agreement will, subject to the terms and conditions
of the applicable sublicense agreement by which the Divested Affiliate received
its sublicense (each, a “Sublicense Agreement”), continue for the term
of the License Grant to the Licensee that granted the sublicense to the
Divested Affiliate (the “Granting Licensee”); provided, that,
notwithstanding any broader sublicense grant by the Granting Licensee to the
Divested Affiliated under such Sublicense Agreement, following the divestiture
of the Divested Affiliate (a “Divestiture”):  (i) the scope of use under such sublicense shall
be no broader than the businesses in which the Divested Affiliate is either (1)
engaged as of the Divestiture or (2) expected, as of the effective date of the Divestiture,
to be engaged pursuant to bona fide, written business plans (and without
restriction on the volume of use within that scope of use), and (ii) if such
sublicense 

 

 

9

 

includes the right to further sublicense the Licensed
Materials, the Divested Affiliate may only grant sublicenses within the scope
of use set forth in Section 6.1(b)(i).

(c)  Divested Affiliates
shall continue to receive any applicable Maintenance and Support that such
Divested Affiliates were receiving prior to the Divestiture, under the then-current
terms and conditions by which the Granting Licensee receives such Maintenance
and Support (without additional payments), for a transition period equal to the
shorter of:  (i) one (1) year from the
date of such Divested Affiliate’s Divestiture, unless the Divested Affiliate is
GTA (or its successor), in which case five (5) years from the date of GTA’s Divestiture,
and (ii) the period of time for which the Granting Licensee is entitled to
receive Maintenance and Support under the applicable License Agreement (a “Transition
Period”).  With respect to such Maintenance
and Support that continues during a Transition Period, unless and to the extent
that the applicable Divested Affiliate notifies the applicable Licensor to the
contrary in writing, the applicable Licensor and the applicable Divested
Affiliate shall use good faith efforts to agree, at least sixty (60) days prior
to the end of the Transition Period, upon commercially reasonable terms (including
pricing terms) for such Divested Affiliate’s continued receipt of Maintenance
and Support following the foregoing period.

(d)  Any assignment or
transfer in violation of the foregoing in this Section 6.1 shall be void.  Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will
be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties
and their respective successors and assigns.

Section
6.1  Relationship of the Parties.  Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed to render any Party an agent of any other Party and
or grant any Party any authority to bind any other Party, transact any business
in the other Party’s name or on its behalf, or make any promises or
representations on behalf of the other Party. 
Each Party will perform all of its respective obligations under this
Agreement as an independent contractor, and no joint venture, partnership or
other relationship shall be created or implied by this Agreement.

Section
6.3  Governing Law and Submission to Jurisdiction.  This
Agreement shall be governed by, enforced under and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect (to the fullest extent
provided by law) to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule thereof
which might result in the application of the laws of any other
jurisdiction.  Subject to Section 6.7,
each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit
to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the
United States of America in each case located in the County of New York for any
litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement (and agrees not to
commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts) and further
agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S.
registered mail to its respective address set forth in Section 6.5 (or to such
other address for notice that such Party has given the other Parties written
notice of in accordance with Section 6.5) shall be effective service of process
for any litigation brought against it in any such court.  Each Party hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any litigation
arising out of this 

 

 

10

 

Agreement in the courts of the State of New York or of the United
States of America in each case located in the County of New York and hereby
further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim
in any such court that any such litigation brought in any such court has been
brought in an inconvenient forum.

Agreement.  This Agreement, including all Schedules, Exhibits,
and Attachments hereto, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties
relating to the subject matter hereof, and there are no further agreements or
understandings, written or oral, among the Parties with respect thereto.  If and to the extent that there is a conflict
between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Separation
Agreement (or any other agreement entered into in connection with the
Separation Agreement by the parties hereto or thereto), this Agreement shall
control.

to Agree”) has not been resolved for any reason after twenty (20) days have
elapsed from the receipt by a Party thereto of notice thereof, such Failure to
Agree shall be determined, at the request of any relevant Party, by expedited arbitration
conducted in New York City, before and in accordance with the then-existing Expedited
Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”), except as modified herein (the “Rules”).  The applicable Party shall provide the
products or services with respect to which there is a Failure to Agree in good
faith, pending resolution of the Failure to Agree and subject to the terms of
such resolution.  There shall be three arbitrators.
 Each Party shall appoint one arbitrator
within ten (10) business days of receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand
for arbitration. The two Party-appointed arbitrators shall have ten (10) business
days from the appointment of the second arbitrator to agree on a third
arbitrator (who shall have knowledge of the travel business and have no current
or past relationship to any applicable Party ) who shall chair the arbitral
tribunal.  Any arbitrator not timely
appointed by the parties shall be appointed by the AAA  in accordance with the listing, ranking and
striking method in the Rules, and in any such procedure, each Party shall be
given a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.  The arbitrators’ fees shall be split equally
between the Travelport Parties involved in the arbitration, on one hand, and
the Orbitz Parties involved in the arbitration, on the other hand.  Any controversy concerning whether a Dispute
is a Failure to Agree, whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee
of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation of enforceability
of this Section 6.6(b) shall be determined by the arbitrators.  In resolving any Failure to Agree, the Parties
intend that the arbitrators shall apply the substantive Laws of the State of
New York, without giving effect (to the fullest extent provided by law) to any
choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws
of another jurisdiction.  The Parties
intend that the provisions to arbitrate set forth herein be valid, enforceable
and irrevocable.  Without limiting the
provisions of the Rules, unless otherwise agreed in writing by or among the
relevant parties or permitted by this Agreement, the relevant Parties shall
keep, and shall cause the members of their applicable group to keep,
confidential all matters relating to the arbitration or the award, and any
negotiations, conferences and discussions pursuant to this Section 6.6(b) shall
be 

 

 

12

 

treated as compromise and settlement negotiations; provided,
that such matters may be disclosed (i) to the extent reasonably necessary in
any proceeding brought to enforce the award or for entry of a judgment upon the
award and (ii) to the extent otherwise required by Law or stock exchange.  Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document
produced, in the course of any negotiations, conferences and discussions that
is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence
or used for impeachment or for any other purpose in any current or future
arbitration.  Nothing contained herein is
intended to or shall be construed to prevent either Party from applying to any
court of competent jurisdiction for interim measures or other provisional
relief in connection with the subject matter of any Failures to Agree.  Without prejudice to such provisional remedies
as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitral tribunal
shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the
parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary
relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of either
Party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect.

Section 6.7  Equitable
Relief.  If any provision of this Agreement is not performed in
accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached, in addition to, and
not in limitation of, any other remedy available to any Party, an aggrieved
Party under this Agreement shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive
relief.  Such remedies, and any and all
other remedies provided for in this Agreement, shall be cumulative in nature
and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies whatsoever which
any Party may otherwise have.

Section 6.8  Severability.  If
any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable
of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and
provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect
so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated
hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to a Party.  Upon such determination that any term or
other provisions are invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the
Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect
the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually
acceptable manner in order that the transactions be consummated as originally
contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(b)  The Parties have
participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of

Circumvention.  No Party shall, directly or indirectly, take any
