Agreement sets forth the terms and provisions pursuant to which WorldRes agrees
to provide network services to WizCom and those Travel Industry and/or WizCom

contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be incorporated into, and shall
supersede all other agreements (whether heretofore or hereafter entered into)
between WorldRes and WizCom to provide Services (as hereinafter defined) in

2. Network Access Services. (a) WorldRes hereby agrees to provide WizCom

facilitate the updating of availability and pricing information, and the
receiving of reservations, modifications and cancellations to Network
Participants to which they are linked through the Network, and also with the
monitoring and maintenance services provided by WorldRes in its sole discretion.
All Services shall be performed by WizCom in a professional, workmanlike manner
and shall meet and conform to
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
the specifications and standards to be provided by WizCom and set forth in
Schedule A attached hereto and made a part hereof. The Services shall be defined
as WizCom providing WorldRes and/or Network Participants with access to the
Network which contains various travel information, availability updating,

(b) WizCom agrees to offer to license to WorldRes a non exclusive,
non-transferable right to use the Network, and through the Network, provided GDS
services set forth herein and to which the scope of the GDS services as been
approved by WorldRes. The Network, as described herein, is offered at the fees

additional testing, training or other services, other than set forth in Schedule
A, as maybe requested from time to time by WorldRes and agreed to by WizCom.

credit against its monthly processing payments. That is, for each week that a
scheduled milestone date is postponed by WizCom, the credit amount to WorldRes
will equal the sum of one (1) month of processing fees. If a scheduled milestone
date is postponed less than a week, the credit will be prorated based on five
