2. To reflect the fact that WTT has assigned the Amended Agreement to TRX, a
Georgia corporation ("TRX"), and TRX has agreed to assume and perform all of the
obligations of WTT under the Amended Agreement, the parties therefore agree that

(i) Within fifteen (15) days after the end of the calendar month in
which this AMENDMENT NUMBER 2 is executed, TRX shall provide Expedia with a
statement setting forth all amounts that are owed to TRX by Expedia as of
the end of such calendar month (the "Transition Amount"). In the event the
Transition Amount is greater than any monies on account with TRX as a
result of fees previously advanced to TRX by Expedia pursuant to the
Amended Agreement (the "Advanced Fees"), Expedia shall pay TRX the excess
of the Transition Amount minus the Advanced Fees within fifteen (15) days
of receipt of the statement. In the event the Advanced Fees are greater
than the Transition Amount, TRX shall pay Expedia the

<PAGE>
excess of the Advanced Fees minus the Transition Amount within fifteen (15)
days of receipt of the statement.
(ii) Expedia shall pay TRX the fees as set forth in Exhibit D of the
Agreement subject to adjustments, deductions or credits to such amounts as
provided for in this Agreement or any Exhibit hereto (the "Fees").
Beginning the first calendar month after execution of this Amendment Number
2, on or before the 1st day of each month, Expedia shall pay TRX Fees based
on the forecast of Calls and Tickets for such month (the "Forecasted Fee").
On or before the 15th day after the close of such month, TRX shall invoice
Expedia the actual Fees (and any applicable Expedia Costs or Customer
Charge-Backs), adjusted for any incentives, credits or penalties provided
herein, for such month in accordance with the schedule set forth in
Attachment 1 to Exhibit G. The invoice shall include a statement setting
forth the total number of calls handled that calendar month by TRX in
connection with the Services and the applicable Fees and any applicable
Expedia Costs or Customer Charge-Backs for which Expedia is responsible in
accordance with Section 2(a) of the Agreement. The statement shall include
information sufficient to discern how the Fees were calculated and shall be
in a format to be provided by Expedia. Except for disputed amounts and
amounts withheld in good faith by Expedia, Expedia shall pay the excess, if
any, of the amount indicated in the invoice minus the Forecasted Fee within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of the invoice. In the event the
Forecasted Fee is greater than the amount indicated in the invoice, then
TRX shall pay Expedia the excess of the Forecasted Fee minus the amount
indicated in the invoice within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the
invoice by Expedia. Late payments by either party shall accrue interest at
a rate of one percent (1%) per month unless Expedia notifies TRX that
Expedia disagrees with the calculation of the invoiced amount. In the
event taxes are required by any U.S. (state or federal) or foreign
government to be withheld on payments made hereunder by Expedia to TRX,
Expedia may deduct such taxes from the amount owed TRX and pay them to the
appropriate taxing authority. Expedia shall in turn promptly secure and
deliver to TRX an official receipt for any taxes withheld that are owed by
TRX. Expedia will use reasonable efforts to minimize such taxes to the
extent permissible under applicable law. "
17. The first sentence of Section 8 (f) is amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:
"(n) Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, other than
termination by TRX because of nonpayment by Expedia which is not cured
within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice sent by TRX to Expedia
regarding such nonpayment, (i) TRX shall cooperate with Expedia, its
subsidiaries or affiliates, to assist in the orderly transition of Services
to Expedia, or as Expedia may direct, in a professional manner, with no
disruption of the Services; and (ii) TRX shall remove all software and
equipment provided by Expedia and shall deliver all such software and
equipment to Expedia, including but not limited to those items detailed in
Exhibit B, subject to TRX's possible option to purchase set forth in
Section 8(g)(i)."

amounts that it may properly owe to TRX in accordance with this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Expedia acknowledges that TRX may receive
debit memos, chargebacks, LTA fees and other invoices after such sixty (60)
day period and accordingly agrees to pay any of such amounts properly owed
to TRX in accordance with this Agreement."

entirety.
20. Exhibit C (Service Process Requirements) is amended and restated in its
entirety as set forth in the new Exhibit C attached hereto.
