FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
The forward-looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties. Many of the statements appear, in particular, in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Forward-looking statements identify prospective information. Important factors could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those in the forward-looking statements. In some cases you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “may”, “plan”, “predict”, “potential”, “should”, “will” and “would” or other similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future priorities, goals, strategies, actions to improve business performance, market growth assumptions and expectations, new products, product pricing, changes to our business processes, future business opportunities, capital expenditures, financing needs, financial position and other information that is not historical information. References within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we”, “our” or “us” means Travelport Limited, a Bermuda company, and its subsidiaries.
 
The following list represents some, but not necessarily all, of the factors that could cause actual results to differ from historical results of continuing operations or those anticipated or predicted by these forward-looking statements:
 
  •     factors affecting the level of travel activity, particularly air travel volume, including security concerns, general economic conditions, natural disasters and other disruptions;
 
  •     the impact outstanding indebtedness may have on the way we operate our business;
 
  •     our ability to obtain travel supplier inventory from travel suppliers, such as airlines, hotels, car rental companies, cruise lines and other travel suppliers;
 
  •     our ability to maintain existing relationships with travel agencies and tour operators and to enter into new relationships on acceptable financial and other terms;
 
  •     our ability to develop and deliver products and services that are valuable to travel agencies and travel suppliers and generate new revenue streams, including our new universal desktop product;
 
  •     the impact on supplier capacity and inventory resulting from consolidation of the airline industry;
 
  •     our ability to grow adjacencies, such as our acquisition of Sprice and our controlling interest in eNett;
 
  •     general economic and business conditions in the markets in which we operate, including fluctuations in currencies;
 
  •     pricing, regulatory and other trends in the travel industry, including the direct connect efforts of American Airlines and our litigation with American Airlines related thereto;
 
  •     risks associated with doing business in multiple countries and in multiple currencies;
 
  •     our ability to achieve expected cost savings from our efforts to improve operational efficiency;
 
  •     maintenance and protection of our information technology and intellectual property; and
 
  •     financing plans and access to adequate capital on favorable terms.
 
We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this report may not in fact occur.
 
Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by which, such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking information is based on information available at the time and/or management’s good faith belief with respect to future events and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements. The factors listed in the sections captioned “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2011, as well as any other cautionary language in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations described in the forward-looking statements. You should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this report could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
 
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking information except to the extent required by applicable securities laws. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect thereto or with respect to other forward-looking statements.

TRAVELPORT LIMITED
 
 
 
1.  Basis of Presentation
 
Travelport Limited (the “Company” or “Travelport”) is a broad-based business services company and a leading provider of critical transaction processing solutions to companies operating in the global travel industry. Travelport is comprised of the global distribution system (“GDS”) business that includes the Worldspan and Galileo brands and the Airline IT Solutions business, which hosts mission critical applications and provides business and data analysis solutions for major airlines. The Company also owns approximately 48% of Orbitz Worldwide, Inc. (“Orbitz Worldwide”), a leading global online travel company. The Company has approximately 3,500 employees and operates in approximately 160 countries. Travelport is a closely held company owned by affiliates of The Blackstone Group of New York, Technology Crossover Ventures of Palo Alto, California, One Equity Partners of New York and Travelport management.
 
These financial statements and other financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. They have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim reporting. Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
 
The December 31, 2010 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
 
On May 5, 2011, the Company completed the sale of the Gullivers Travel Associates (“GTA”) business to Kuoni Travel Holdings Limited (“Kuoni”). The Company realized a gain of $312 million, net of tax, on the transaction. Proceeds from the sale, together with existing cash, were used to make a $655 million early repayment of indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s senior secured credit agreement. The gain from the disposal of the GTA business and the results of operations of the GTA business are presented as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations and consolidated condensed statements of cash flows. The assets and liabilities of the GTA business are classified as discontinued operations on the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheet for periods presented prior to the sale.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgments and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. In management’s opinion, the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these interim results. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011.

2.  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
Amendments to Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income
 
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. This guidance eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as part of the statement of changes in equity and requires companies to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance also requires items reclassified from OCI to net income to be disclosed in both net income and OCI. This guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis for all annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The Company does not anticipate an impact on the consolidated financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance, other than presentation.
 
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance on measuring fair value and on disclosing information about fair value measurements. This new guidance provides clarification on the application of certain valuation methods, clarification on measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in an entity’s own equity, new guidance related to measuring the fair value of financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio, and new guidance related to the use of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement. This guidance also requires additional disclosures to be made for fair value measurements categorized as Level 3. This guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis for all annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is assessing the impact of this new guidance, but does not anticipate a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
 
Disclosure of Supplementary Pro-Forma Information for Business Combinations
 
In December 2010, the FASB issued guidance to clarify disclosure requirements for pro-forma information on revenues and earnings for business combinations. This guidance clarifies that where comparative financial statements are presented, revenue and earnings of the combined entity should be disclosed as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current reporting period had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. This guidance also expands disclosure requirements to include a description of the nature and amount of material, non-recurring pro-forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro-forma revenue and earnings. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2011, and there was no impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance.
 
Goodwill Impairment Testing
 
In December 2010, the FASB issued amended goodwill impairment testing guidance for reporting units with an overall nil or negative carrying amount, but a positive goodwill balance. This amended guidance requires that for these reporting units, the second stage of goodwill impairment testing should be performed when it is considered more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists. This assessment should be made by considering whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating impairment of the goodwill. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2011, and there was no impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance.

2.  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
 
Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance related to new disclosures about fair value measurements and clarification on certain existing disclosure requirements. This guidance requires new disclosures on significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 categories of fair value measurements. This guidance also clarifies existing requirements on (i) the level of disaggregation in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities for fair value measurement disclosures, and (ii) disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance on January 1, 2010, except for the new disclosures around the activity in Level 3 categories of fair value measurements, which the Company adopted on January 1, 2011, as required. There was no impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance.
 
Amendment to Revenue Recognition involving Multiple Deliverable Arrangements
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance for arrangements with multiple deliverables. The new guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition and allows the use of management’s best estimate of selling price for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor specific objective evidence of fair value or third-party evidence is unavailable. This guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2011, as required. There was no material impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance.
 
Amendment to Software Revenue Recognition
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance which amended the scope of existing software revenue recognition accounting. Tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality would be scoped out of the accounting guidance on software and accounted for based on other appropriate revenue recognition guidance. This guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2011, as required. There was no material impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements resulting from the adoption of this guidance.
 
3.  Discontinued Operations
 
On May 5, 2011, the Company completed the sale of the GTA business to Kuoni. The Company realized a gain of $312 million, net of tax, on the transaction.

9.  Long-Term Debt (Continued)
 
In May 2011, proceeds from the sale of the GTA business, together with existing cash, were used to make a $655 million early repayment of term loans outstanding under the senior secured credit agreement, consisting of $19 million of euro denominated term loans due August 2013, $135 million of euro denominated term loans due August 2015, $51 million of dollar denominated term loans due August 2013 and $450 million of dollar denominated term loans due August 2015. Due to these early repayments, the Company is no longer required to repay quarterly installments equal to 1% per annum of the original funded principal amount.
 
Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company repaid approximately $3 million of its dollar denominated debt as quarterly installments under its senior secured credit agreement and approximately $4 million under its capital lease obligations. Furthermore, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company entered into $15 million of capital leases for information technology assets.
 
The principal amount of euro denominated long-term debt increased by approximately $74 million as a result of foreign exchange fluctuations during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This foreign exchange loss was fully offset by gains on foreign exchange derivative instruments contracted by the Company.
 
The Company has a $270 million revolving credit facility with a consortium of banks under its senior secured credit agreement. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no borrowings or letters of credit commitments outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
 
The Company has a $133 million letter of credit facility collateralized by $137 million of restricted cash and a $13 million synthetic letter of credit facility. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $99 million of commitments outstanding under its cash collateralized letter of credit facility and $10 million of commitments outstanding under its synthetic letter of credit facility. The outstanding commitments under these two facilities included approximately $73 million in letters of credit issued by the Company on behalf of Orbitz Worldwide, pursuant to the Company’s separation agreement with Orbitz Worldwide. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $37 million of remaining capacity under its letter of credit facilities.
 
10.  Financial Instruments
 
The Company uses derivative instruments as part of its overall strategy to manage its exposure to market risks primarily associated with fluctuations in foreign currency and interest rates. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
 
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had a net asset position of $47 million related to derivative instruments associated with its euro denominated and floating rate debt, its foreign currency denominated receivables and payables, and forecasted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
A portion of the Company’s long-term debt is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. The Company uses hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate debt. The primary interest rate exposure as of June 30, 2011 was to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and Europe, specifically USLIBOR and EURIBOR interest rates. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company used interest rate and cross currency swaps as the derivative instruments in these hedging strategies. The Company does not designate these interest rate and cross currency swaps as accounting hedges; however, the fluctuations in the value of these contracts recorded within the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations largely offset the impact of the changes in the value of the underlying risk they are intended to economically hedge.

10.  Financial Instruments (Continued)
 
As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s interest rate and cross currency swaps cover transactions for periods that do not exceed three years.
 
Foreign Currency Risk
 
The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its euro denominated debt. The Company does not designate these forward contracts as cash flow hedges; however, the fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts recorded within the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations largely offset the impact of the changes in the value of the euro denominated debt they are intended to economically hedge.
 
The Company also uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its foreign currency denominated receivables and payables and forecasted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. The Company primarily enters into foreign currency forward contracts to manage its foreign currency exposure to the British pound, Euro and Australian dollar. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, none of the derivative contracts used to manage the Company’s foreign currency exposure was designated as cash flow hedges, although during the six months ended June 30, 2010, certain contracts were designated as hedges for accounting purposes. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts do, however, largely offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk they are intended to economically hedge.
 
The fair value of all the forward contracts and the impact of the changes in the fair value of these forward contracts are presented in the tables below.
 
Fair Value Disclosures for Derivative Instruments
 
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value consist primarily of derivative instruments. These amounts have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy and are categorized as Level 2 — Significant Other Observable Inputs as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
 
The fair value of interest rate and cross currency swap derivative instruments is determined using pricing models based on discounted cash flows that use inputs from actively quoted markets for similar instruments, adjusted for the Company’s own credit risk and counterparty credit risk. This adjustment is calculated based on the default probability of the banking counterparty and/or the Company and is obtained from active credit default swap markets. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is determined by comparing the contract rate to a published forward price of the underlying currency, which is based on market rates for comparable transactions.
 
Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the ineffective portion of derivatives designated as hedging instruments are recognized in earnings in the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations.

During 2010, the Company de-designated as hedges certain of its derivative contracts. The total loss in relation to these contracts of $4 million as of June 30, 2011 is included within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is being recorded in income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations over the period to December 2011, in line with the previously hedged cash flows relating to these contracts. The total amount of loss recorded on these contracts in the consolidated condensed

statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $3 million and $5 million, respectively. The total amount of loss recorded on these contracts in the consolidated condensed statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was $2 million.
 
The total amount of loss reclassified into interest expense from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the interest rate swaps designated as hedges includes amounts for ineffectiveness of less than $1 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
 
The total amount of loss expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations within the next 12 months is expected to be $4 million.
 
Fair Value Disclosures for All Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate to their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.
 
The fair values of the Company’s other financial instruments are as follows:

The fair value of the investment in Orbitz Worldwide has been determined based on quoted prices in active markets.
 
The fair value of the total debt has been determined by calculating the fair value of the senior notes and senior subordinated notes based on quoted prices in active markets for identical debt instruments and by calculating amounts outstanding under the senior secured credit agreement based on market observable inputs.
 
11.  Equity-Based Compensation
 
As detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011, the partnership that owns 100% of the Company (the “Partnership”) has an equity-based, long-term incentive program for the purpose of retaining certain key employees. Under several plans within this program, key employees have been granted restricted equity units and profit interests in the Partnership.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the board of directors of the Partnership authorized the grant of 0.8 million restricted equity units under the 2010 Travelport Long-Term Incentive Plan, but none of these restricted equity units have been recognized for accounting purposes as being granted.
 
As of June 30, 2011, there remain 15.1 million restricted equity units authorized for grant under the 2009 Travelport Long-Term Incentive Plan, which will be recognized as granted for accounting purposes over the subsequent period through December 31, 2012, and 7.1 million restricted equity units authorized for grant

11.  Equity-Based Compensation (Continued)
 
under the 2010 Travelport Long-Term Incentive Plan, which will be recognized as granted for accounting purposes over the subsequent period through December 31, 2013. The level of award vesting each year is dependent upon continued service and performance measures of the business as established by the board of directors of the Partnership.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the board of directors of the Partnership authorized the grant of a further 0.5 million restricted equity units, which will be recognized as granted for accounting purposes over the period through August 1, 2015. The level of award vesting each year will be dependent upon continued service and performance measures of the business as established by the board of directors of the Partnership. In May 2011, there was an acceleration in the vesting of 1.7 million restricted equity units with a fair value of $0.47 per unit, previously awarded but not granted for accounting purposes, due to the sale of the GTA business.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, 4.5 million restricted equity units were forfeited based upon performance, and a further 0.4 million restricted equity units were forfeited due to departures, including 0.2 million due to the sale of the GTA business.
 
The fair value of the restricted equity units, recognized as grants for accounting purposes, is based on a valuation of the total equity of the Partnership at the time of each grant.
 
The activity of all the Company’s equity award programs is presented below:

The Company recorded non-cash equity compensation expense of $1 million within the gain from disposal of discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, and $3 million within operating income of continuing operations in the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

13.  Commitments and Contingencies
 
Purchase Commitments
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes various commitments to purchase goods and services from specific suppliers, including those related to capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $159 million of outstanding purchase commitments, primarily relating to service contracts for information technology (of which $60 million relates to the twelve months ended June 30, 2012). These purchase obligations extend through 2015.
 
Company Litigation
 
The Company is involved in various claims, legal proceedings and governmental inquiries related to contract disputes, business practices, intellectual property and other commercial, employment and tax matters. The Company believes it has adequately accrued for such matters as appropriate or, for matters not requiring accrual, believes that they will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows based on information currently available. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable and although the Company believes that its accruals are adequate and/or that it has valid defenses in these matters, unfavorable resolutions could occur, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular reporting period.
 
The Company is currently in dispute with American Airlines regarding its GDS distribution agreement (as amended). American Airlines is also alleging, among other things, violations of US federal antitrust laws. The Company believes American Airlines’ claims are without merit and, while no assurance can be provided, the Company does not believe the outcome of these disputes will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or liquidity condition.
 
In connection with the Company’s former third-party national distribution companies (“NDC”) arrangements in the Middle East, the Company is involved in disputes with certain of its former NDC partners regarding the payment of certain disputed fees. The Company believes these disputes are without merit and does not believe the outcome of these disputes will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or its liquidity condition. During the fourth quarter of 2010, one such dispute was resolved in the Company’s favor.

13.  Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
 
Standard Guarantees/Indemnifications
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into numerous agreements that contain standard guarantees and indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party for breaches of representations and warranties. In addition, many of these parties are also indemnified against any third-party claim resulting from the transaction that is contemplated in the underlying agreement. Such guarantees or indemnifications are granted under various agreements, including those governing (i) purchases, sales or outsourcing of assets or businesses, (ii) leases of real estate, (iii) licensing of trademarks, (iv) use of derivatives and (v) issuances of debt securities. The guarantees or indemnifications issued are for the benefit of the (i) buyers in sale agreements and sellers in purchase agreements, (ii) landlords in lease contracts, (iii) licensees of the Company’s trademarks, (iv) financial institutions in derivative contracts and (v) underwriters in debt security issuances. While some of these guarantees extend only for the duration of the underlying agreement, many survive the expiration of the term of the agreement or extend into perpetuity (unless subject to a legal statute of limitations). There are no specific limitations on the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees, nor is the Company able to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under these guarantees, as the triggering events are not subject to predictability and there is little or no history of claims against the Company under such arrangements. With respect to certain of the aforementioned guarantees, such as indemnifications of landlords against third-party claims for the use of real estate property leased by the Company, the Company maintains insurance coverage that mitigates any potential payments to be made.
 
14.  Segment Information
 
Due to the sale of the GTA business during the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company now has one reportable segment.
 
15.  Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Consolidating Condensed Financial Statements
 
The Company’s long-term debt is guaranteed by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries incorporated in the US. The guarantees are full, unconditional, joint and several.
 
The following consolidating condensed financial statements presents the Company’s consolidating condensed statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, consolidating condensed balance sheets as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the consolidating condensed statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 for: (a) Travelport Limited (“the Parent Guarantor”); (b) Waltonville Limited and TDS Investor (Luxembourg) S.à.r.l. (together, “the Intermediate Parent Guarantor”); (c) Travelport LLC and Travelport Inc. (from August 18, 2010) (together, “the Issuer”); (d) the guarantor subsidiaries; (e) the non-guarantor subsidiaries; (f) elimination and adjusting entries necessary to combine the Parent and Intermediate Parent Guarantor with the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries; and (g) the Company on a consolidated basis. Certain entities previously reported as guarantor subsidiaries within the Company’s consolidating condensed statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and the consolidating condensed statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 have been re-presented as non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” beginning on page 2 of this Form 10-Q. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are in $ millions.
 
Overview
 
We are a broad-based business services company and a leading provider of critical transaction processing solutions and data to companies operating in the global travel industry. We believe we are one of the most diversified of such companies in the world, both geographically and in the scope of the services we provide.
 
Our business consists of our global distribution systems (“GDSs”), which provide aggregation, search and transaction processing services to travel suppliers and travel agencies, allowing travel agencies to search, compare, process and book tens of thousands of itinerary and pricing options across multiple travel suppliers within seconds. Our business operates three systems, Galileo, Apollo and Worldspan, across approximately 160 countries to provide travel agencies with booking technology and access to considerable supplier inventory that we aggregate from airlines, hotels, car rental companies, rail networks, cruise and tour operators, and destination service providers.

Table of Contents

Travelport Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as a measure comparable to net income as determined under US GAAP as it does not take into account certain expenses such as depreciation and amortization, interest, income tax, and other costs we believe are unrelated to our ongoing operations. In addition, Travelport Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies. The presentation of Travelport Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and this measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Travelport’s results as reported under US GAAP.
 
We define Travelport Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) from continuing operations before equity in earnings (losses) of investment in Orbitz Worldwide, interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization and adjusted to exclude items we believe potentially restrict our ability to assess the results of our underlying business.
 
We have included Travelport Adjusted EBITDA as it is the primary metric used by management across our company to evaluate and understand the underlying operations and business trends, forecast future results and determine future capital investment allocations. In addition, it is used by the Board to determine incentive compensation.
 
We believe Travelport Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure as it allows management to monitor our ongoing core operations. The core operations represent the primary trading operations of the business. Since our formation, actual results have been significantly affected by events that are unrelated to our ongoing operations due to the number of changes to our business during that time. These events include, among other things, the acquisition of Worldspan and subsequent integration, the transfer of our finance and human resources functions from the United States to the United Kingdom and the associated restructuring costs. During the periods presented, these items primarily relate to the impact of purchase accounting, expenses incurred in conjunction with Travelport’s separation from Cendant, expenses incurred to acquire and integrate Travelport’s portfolio of businesses, costs associated with Travelport’s restructuring efforts and non-cash equity-based compensation.

(2) Restructuring charges represent the costs recorded during the periods to enhance our organizational efficiency and to consolidate and rationalize existing processes.
 
(3) Other includes amounts relating to purchase accounting impacts, including deferred revenue adjustments recorded at the time of the acquisition of the Travelport business from Cendant (totaling $1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010) and a $4 million write-off of property and equipment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. An $8 million adjustment relating to a revenue reserve was booked in the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to an item occurring outside the normal course of operations.
 
Factors Affecting Results of Operations
 
Consolidations within the Airline Industry: As a result of recent consolidations within the airline industry, our annual revenue and EBITDA have been impacted. Delta’s acquisition of Northwest, both being customers of our Airline IT services business, resulted in these airlines migrating to a common IT platform, with reduced needs from our IT services. Further, following the merger of United Airlines with Continental Airlines in 2010, we received a notice from United Airlines, terminating its agreement for the Apollo reservation system operated by us on their behalf, with a termination date of March 1, 2012.
 
Seasonality: Our businesses experience seasonal fluctuations, reflecting seasonal trends for the products and services we offer. These trends cause our revenue to be generally higher in the first and second calendar quarters of the year, with revenue peaking as travelers plan and purchase in advance their spring and summer travel. Revenue typically declines in the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. Our results may also be affected by seasonal fluctuations in the inventory made available to us by our travel suppliers.
 
Foreign Exchange Movements: We transact business primarily in US dollars. While the majority of our revenue is denominated in US dollars, a portion of costs are denominated in other currencies (principally, the British pound, Euro, and Australian dollar). We use foreign currency forward contracts to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with our foreign currency denominated receivables and payables and forecasted earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts largely offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk they are intended to economically hedge. Nevertheless, our operating results are impacted to a certain extent by movements in the underlying exchange rates between those currencies listed above.
 
Restructuring: Historically, we have taken a number of actions to enhance organizational efficiency and consolidate and rationalize existing processes. These actions include, among others, the migration of the Galileo data center, formerly located in Denver, Colorado, into the Worldspan data center, located in Atlanta, Georgia; consolidating certain administrative and support functions of Galileo and Worldspan, including accounting, sales and marketing and human resources functions; and the renegotiation of several material vendor contracts. The most significant impact of these initiatives was the elimination of redundant staff positions and reduced technology costs associated with renegotiated vendor contracts. As a result, our results of operations have been impacted by these actions.

Net revenue increased by $10 million as a result of a $6 million increase in transaction processing revenue and a $4 million increase in Airline IT solutions revenue. Americas transaction processing revenue decreased by $2 million (1%) due to a 2% decline in the average revenue per segment and a 1% increase in segment volume. Europe transaction processing revenue increased by $4 million (3%) due to a 1% increase in the average revenue per segment and a 2% increase in segment volume. APAC transaction processing revenue increased by $6 million (8%) due to a 4% increase in the average revenue per segment and a 4% increase in segment volume.

Cost of revenue increased by $25 million (9%) as a result of a $17 million (8%) increase in commissions paid to travel agencies and NDCs and an $8 million (13%) increase in telecommunication and technology costs. The increase in commission costs is primarily due to a 6% increase in the average rate of agency commissions.
 
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)
 
SG&A remained flat at $96 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 as we continue to effectively manage our costs.
 
Restructuring Charges
 
Restructuring charges decreased by $2 million from $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, restructuring charges primarily related to exiting a lease arrangement in the US as a result of relocation.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization increased by $3 million (6%) primarily due to depreciation on assets transferred from construction in progress to capitalized software during the three months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Interest Expense, Net
 
Interest expense, net, increased by $9 million (14%) due to (i) higher interest rates arising from amendments made to our senior secured credit agreement in the fourth quarter of 2010 and (ii) accelerated amortization of debt finance costs partially offset by a reduction in interest expense resulting from the early repayment of $655 million of term loans in May 2011 following the sale of our GTA business.

Provision for Income Taxes
 
Our tax provision differs materially from the US Federal statutory rate primarily as a result of (i) being subject to income tax in numerous non-US jurisdictions with varying income tax rates; (ii) a valuation allowance established in the US due to the forecast losses in that jurisdiction; and (iii) certain expenses that are not deductible for tax in the relevant jurisdiction.

Restructuring Charges
 
Restructuring charges remained flat at $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, these costs related to the strategic initiatives undertaken during the fourth quarter of 2010 to consolidate and rationalize certain of our centralized functions and existing processes. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, restructuring charges primarily related to exiting a lease arrangement in the US as a result of relocation.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization increased by $11 million (11%) primarily due to increased depreciation following a significant purchase of new software and equipment in March 2010 and increased depreciation on assets transferred from construction in progress to capitalized software during the three months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Interest Expense, Net
 
Interest expense, net, increased by $20 million (16%) due to (i) higher interest rates arising from amendments made to our senior secured credit agreement in the fourth quarter of 2010 and (ii) accelerated amortization of debt finance costs partially offset by a reduction in interest expense resulting from the early repayment of $655 million of term loans in May 2011 following the sale of our GTA business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our principal source of operating liquidity is cash flows generated from operations, including working capital. We maintain what we consider to be an appropriate level of liquidity through several sources, including maintaining appropriate levels of cash, access to funding sources, a committed credit facility and other committed and uncommitted lines of credit. As of June 30, 2011, our financing needs were supported by full availability under our $270 million revolving credit facility. We have the ability to add incremental term loan facilities or to increase commitments under the revolving credit facility by an aggregate amount of up to $500 million, of which $150 million was utilized as of June 30, 2011. In the event additional funding is

Table of Contents

required, there can be no assurance that further funding will be available on terms favorable to us or at all for these incremental term loan facilities.
 
Our principal uses of cash are to fund planned operating expenditures, capital expenditures, interest payments on debt and any mandatory or discretionary principal payments or repurchases of debt. As a result of the cash on our consolidated condensed balance sheet, our ability to generate cash from operations over the course of a year and through access to our revolving credit facility and other lending sources, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing needs for at least the next twelve months. If our cash flows from operations are less than we expect or we require funds to consummate acquisitions of other businesses, assets, products or technologies, we may need to incur additional debt, sell or monetize certain existing assets or utilize our cash or cash equivalents. Alternatively, we may be able to offset any potential shortfall in cash flows from operations in 2011 by taking cost reduction measures or reducing capital expenditures from existing levels.
 
As of June 30, 2011, our leverage ratio was 5.16 compared to the maximum leverage ratio allowable under our senior secured credit agreement of 5.75, and we were in compliance with all financial covenants related to long-term debt. Under the terms of our senior secured credit agreement, the maximum leverage ratio with which we need to comply will decrease from 5.75 at June 30, 2011 to 4.75 by December 31, 2012. With respect to such leverage ratio, based on our current financial forecast, we believe we will continue to be in compliance with, or be able to avoid an event of default under, the senior secured credit agreement and the indentures governing our notes and meet our cash flow needs during the next twelve months.
 
In the event of an unanticipated adverse variance compared to the financial forecast, which might lead to an event of default, we have the opportunity to take certain mitigating actions in order to avoid such a default. These include:
 
  •  Reducing or deferring discretionary expenditure;
 
  •  Selling assets or businesses;
 
  •  Re-negotiating financial covenants; and
 
  •  Securing additional sources of finance or investment.
 
We expect to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service the debt under the senior secured credit agreement and our bonds prior to the stated maturity of the debt provided there is not otherwise an acceleration of the maturity of the debt. Our ability to meet the maximum leverage ratio can be affected by events beyond our control and, in the longer term, we may not be able to meet that ratio. A breach could result in a default under the credit agreement and our indentures. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the credit agreement, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the credit agreement to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we are unable to repay those amounts, the lenders under the credit agreement could take action or exercise remedies, including proceeding against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness. We have pledged a significant portion of our assets as collateral under the credit agreement. If the lenders under the credit agreement accelerate the repayment of borrowings, we cannot provide assurance that we will have sufficient assets to repay the indebtedness outstanding under the credit agreement as well as our unsecured indebtedness, including our notes.
 
In addition to our substantial level of indebtedness, on March 27, 2007, our direct parent, Travelport Holdings Limited, entered into a credit agreement in connection with a $1.1 billion senior unsecured payment-in-kind term loan (the “Holding Company Credit Agreement”) with Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands branch, as administrative agent, and certain lenders from time to time party thereto, as amended as of December 4, 2008. As of June 30, 2011, approximately $693 million was outstanding under the Holding Company Credit Agreement. The entire amount outstanding under the term loans under the Holding Company Credit Agreement is due on March 27, 2012. Travelport Holdings Limited is a holding company with no direct operations. Its principal assets are the direct and indirect equity interests it holds in its subsidiaries, including us, and all of its operations are conducted through us and our subsidiaries. If Travelport Holdings Limited is


37


Table of Contents

unable to repay amounts outstanding under the Holding Company Credit Agreement when they become due, Travelport Holdings Limited’s failure to pay such amounts would not be a default under our senior secured credit agreement or the indentures governing our notes. However, if Travelport Holdings Limited were to restructure or refinance its obligations under the Holding Company Credit Agreement or if its creditors exercised remedies in a manner that results in a change of control under the terms of our senior secured credit agreement or the indentures governing our notes, we would be required to repay all amounts outstanding under our senior secured credit agreement and make an offer to purchase all outstanding notes at 101%, plus accrued interest. We may not have the ability to repay such amounts or make such note purchases which would result in a default under the notes.
 
Our primary recurring future cash needs will be for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service obligations and mandatory debt repayments. As market conditions warrant, we may from time to time repurchase debt securities issued by us, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer, exchange offer or otherwise.
 
On May 5, 2011, we completed the sale of our GTA business. Proceeds from the sale, together with existing cash, were used to make a $655 million early repayment of indebtedness outstanding under our Credit Agreement. As a result of these transactions, our net debt has reduced, and we expect a reduction in the cash required to fund interest payments during the remainder of 2011 and beyond. Additionally, the remaining capacity under our synthetic letter of credit facility has increased as a result of the release of letters of credit issued by us on behalf of the GTA business.
 
We believe an important measure of our liquidity is unlevered free cash flow. This measure is a useful indicator of our ability to generate cash to meet our liquidity demands. We believe unlevered free cash flow provides investors a better understanding of how assets are performing and measures management’s effectiveness in managing cash. We define unlevered free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations, adjusted to remove the impact of interest payments and to deduct capital expenditures on property and equipment additions. We believe this measure gives management and investors a better understanding of the cash flows generated by our underlying business, as our interest payments are primarily related to the debt assumed from previous business acquisitions while our capital expenditures are primarily related to the development of our operating platforms.
 
In addition, we present Travelport Adjusted EBITDA as a liquidity measure as we believe it is a useful measure to our investors to assess our ability to comply with certain debt covenants, including our maximum leverage ratio. Our leverage ratio under our Credit Agreement is computed by dividing the total net debt (as defined under our Credit Agreement) at the balance sheet date by the last twelve months of Travelport Adjusted EBITDA (as defined under our Credit Agreement).
 
Travelport Adjusted EBITDA and unlevered free cash flow are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered

as measures of liquidity or cash flows from operations as determined under US GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures:

As of June 30, 2011, we had $288 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $46 million compared to December 31, 2010. The following discussion summarizes changes to our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
 
Operating activities of continuing operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $98 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations of $106 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease of $8 million is due to a $32 million improvement in operating working capital, offset by $40 million of additional interest payments.
 
Operating activities of discontinued operations.  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash used in operating activities of the GTA business was $12 million, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $98 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The operating activities of the GTA business for 2011 reflect its activities through May 5, 2011, the date of disposal of the business.
 
Investing activities. The cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $604 million. This is primarily due to $633 million cash received from the sale of the GTA business, less $34 million of cash used for capital expenditures. The use of cash in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $202 million due to $136 million of cash outflow for capital expenditures, including amounts related to the software license from IBM, $50 million of additional investment in Orbitz Worldwide and $16 million for business acquisitions. Capital expenditures include $5 million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to our disposed GTA business.

Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 comprised $655 million term loan repayments primarily from sale proceeds of the GTA business, $3 million mandatory term loan repayments and $4 million capital lease payments, offset by $12 million cash received from terminated derivative instruments. The cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $42 million, due to $6 million mandatory term loan repayments, $6 million capital lease payments and $30 million of cash paid for settlement of derivative contracts. Borrowings of $100 million drawn down under the revolving credit facility in the three months ended March 31, 2010 were repaid in the three months ended June 30, 2010.

In May 2011, proceeds from the sale of the GTA business, together with existing cash, were used to make a $655 million early repayment of term loans under our Credit Agreement, consisting of $19 million of euro denominated term loans due August 2013, $135 million of euro denominated term loans due August 2015, $51 million of dollar denominated term loans due August 2013 and $450 million of dollar denominated term loans due August 2015. Due to these early repayments, we are no longer required to repay quarterly installments equal to 1% per annum of the original funded principal amount.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we repaid approximately $3 million of our dollar denominated debt as quarterly installments under our Credit Agreement and approximately $4 million under our capital lease obligations.
 
The principal amount of our euro denominated long-term debt increased by approximately $74 million as a result of foreign exchange fluctuations during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This foreign exchange loss was fully offset by gains on foreign exchange hedge instruments contracted by us.
 
As of June 30, 2011, we had approximately $10 million of commitments outstanding under our synthetic letter of credit facility and $99 million of commitments outstanding under our cash collateralized letter of credit facility. The commitments under these two facilities included approximately $73 million in letters of credit issued by us on behalf of Orbitz Worldwide. As of June 30, 2011, the cash collateralized letter of credit facility was collateralized by $137 million of restricted cash, providing a letter of credit commitment capacity of $133 million. As of June 30, 2011, there was $3 million of remaining capacity under our synthetic letter of credit facility and $34 million of remaining capacity under our cash collateralized letter of credit facility.
 
Travelport LLC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, is the borrower (the “Borrower”) under our Credit Agreement. All obligations under the Credit Agreement, along with our senior notes and senior subordinated notes, are unconditionally guaranteed by us, as parent guarantor, Waltonville Limited and TDS Investor (Luxembourg) S.à.r.l., as intermediate parent guarantor, and, subject to certain exceptions, each of our existing and future domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries. All obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all the following assets of the Borrower and each guarantor, subject to certain exceptions: (i) a pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the Borrower, 100% of the capital stock of each guarantor and 65% of the capital stock of each of our wholly-owned non-US subsidiaries that are directly owned by us or one of the guarantors; and (ii) a security interest in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible assets of the Borrower and each guarantor.

Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to amortization and prepayment requirements, and the Credit Agreement contains various covenants, including a leverage ratio, events of default and other provisions.
 
Total net debt per our Credit Agreement is broadly defined as total debt excluding the collateralized portion of the “Tranche S” term loans, less cash and the net position of related derivative instrument balances. Travelport Adjusted EBITDA is defined under the Credit Agreement as EBITDA adjusted to exclude the impact of purchase accounting, impairment of goodwill and intangibles assets, expenses incurred in conjunction with Travelport’s separation from Cendant, expenses incurred to acquire and integrate Travelport’s portfolio of businesses, costs associated with Travelport’s restructuring efforts, non-cash equity-based compensation, unrealized gains (losses) on foreign exchange derivatives and other adjustments made to exclude expenses management views as outside the normal course of operations.
 
Foreign Currency and Interest Rate Risk
 
A portion of the debt used to finance much of our operations is exposed to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We use various hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate debt and to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with our euro denominated debt. The primary interest rate exposure during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and Europe, specifically USLIBOR and EURIBOR interest rates. We currently use interest rate and cross currency swaps and foreign currency forward contacts as the derivative instruments in these hedging strategies.
 
We also use foreign currency forward contracts to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with our foreign currency denominated receivables and payables and forecasted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. We primarily enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage our foreign currency exposure to the British pound, Euro and Australian dollar.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, none of the derivative financial instruments used to manage our interest rate and foreign currency exposures were designated as cash flow hedges, although during the six months ended June 30, 2010, certain of our derivative financial instruments were designated as hedges for accounting purposes. The fluctuations in the fair value of foreign currency derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, along with the ineffective portion of fluctuations in the fair value of such instruments designated as hedges, are recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated condensed statements of operations. Gains (losses) on these foreign currency derivative financial instruments amounted to $25 million and $(82) million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $81 million and $(129) million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The fluctuations in the fair value of interest rate derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, along with the ineffective portion of fluctuations in the fair value of such instruments designated as hedges, are recorded as a component of interest expense, net, in our consolidated condensed statements of operations. Gains (losses) on these interest rate derivative financial instruments amounted to $(3) million and $(6) million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively and $(11) million and $(16) million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The fluctuations in the fair values of our derivative financial instruments which have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes largely offset the impact of the changes in the value of the underlying risks they are intended to economically hedge. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded the effective portion of designated cash flow hedges in other comprehensive income (loss).
 
As of June 30, 2011, our interest rate and foreign currency hedges cover transactions for periods that do not exceed three years. As of June 30, 2011, we had a net asset position of $47 million related to derivative instruments associated with our euro denominated and floating rate debt, our foreign currency denominated receivables and payables, and forecasted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2011, we have $53 million of accrued interest on our consolidated condensed balance sheet that will be paid in the third quarter of 2011. Interest payments exclude the effects of mark-to-market adjustments on related hedging instruments.
 
(b) Primarily reflects non-cancellable operating leases on facilities and data processing equipment.
 
(c) Primarily reflects our agreement with a third party for data center services. Our obligations related to defined benefit and post-retirement plans are actuarially determined on an annual basis at our financial year end. As of June 30, 2011, plan contributions of $6 million are expected to be made during the remainder of 2011. Funding projections beyond 2011 are not practical to estimate and, therefore, no payments have been included in the table above.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We assess our market risk based on changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential impact in earnings, fair values, and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change (increase and decrease) in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We used June 30, 2011 market rates to perform a sensitivity analysis separately for each of our market risk exposures. The estimates assume instantaneous, parallel shifts in interest rate yield curves and exchange rates. We have determined, through such analyses, that the impact of a 10% change in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on our earnings, fair values and cash flows would not be material. There have been no material changes in our exposure to market risks from what was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011.
 
Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
 
  (a)      Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Act, for the period ended June 30, 2011. Based on the evaluation performed, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
 
  (b)      Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.
 
On April 12, 2011, American Airlines filed suit against the Company and Orbitz Worldwide in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas. American Airlines subsequently amended its complaint and added Sabre as a defendant on June 9, 2011. American Airlines is alleging violations of US federal antitrust laws and Texas state law based on the ways in which Travelport operates its GDS and the terms of Travelport’s contracts with suppliers and subscribers, including Orbitz Worldwide. The suit seeks injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. We believe American Airlines’ claims are without merit and we intend to defend the claims vigorously. While no assurance can be provided, we do not believe the outcome of this dispute will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or liquidity condition.
 
On May 19, 2011, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”), which seeks Travelport documents and data in connection with an investigation into whether there have been “horizontal and vertical restraints of trade by global distribution systems.” The investigation is ongoing and Travelport is in the process of complying with the CID and cooperating with the DOJ in its investigation.
 
Other than as set forth above, there are no material changes from the description of our legal proceedings disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011.
 
Item 1A.   Risk Factors.
 
We provide IT services to travel suppliers, primarily airlines, and any adverse changes in these relationships could adversely affect our business.
 
Through our Airline IT Solutions business, we provide hosting solutions and IT subscription services to airlines and the technology companies that support them. We host and manage the reservations systems of eleven airlines worldwide, including Delta and United, and provide IT subscription services for mission-critical applications in fares, pricing and e-ticketing, directly and indirectly, to 274 airlines and airline ground handlers. Adverse changes in our relationships with our IT and hosting customers or our inability to enter into new relationships with other customers could affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our arrangements with our customers may not remain in effect on current or similar terms and this may negatively impact revenue. In addition, if any of our key customers enters bankruptcy, liquidates or does not emerge from bankruptcy, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected.
 
Delta, one of our largest IT services customers, has completed its acquisition of Northwest, another of our largest IT services customers. As part of their integration, Delta and Northwest have migrated to a common IT platform and will have reduced needs for our IT services after the integration. As a result of the integration of Delta’s and Northwest’s operations, which we managed, in 2010, the revenue and Travelport EBITDA attributable to contracts with these airlines, which include Airline IT Solutions and transaction processing services, decreased by approximately $22 million and $15 million, respectively.
 
In addition, in December 2010, United provided us with notice of termination of the master services agreement for the Apollo reservations system operated by Travelport for United, with a termination date of March 1, 2012. We expect that United will consolidate the internal reservations systems for United and Continental on the reservations system used by Continental. We expect that such termination will not have an impact on our financial results until 2012, at the earliest, and we expect that United’s integration work will likely require use of the Apollo system until at least some point in 2012. We expect that once United fully transitions off the Apollo system, which would be during the 2012 fiscal year at the earliest, it may adversely affect our results of operations due to the loss of fees resulting from this agreement, unless such revenue can be regained through the sale of other services to United or other carriers. We currently expect this could negatively impact EBITDA by $40 million to $60 million on a full year basis once United has fully

transitioned off our system and also assuming United terminates all other services provided by Travelport at that time as well. If the United-Continental reservations system integration is delayed for any reason, including United requesting us to provide additional termination assistance and continuation of service, the financial impact on us may occur later in 2012 or may not occur at all.
 
See Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011 for a detailed discussion of the risk factors affecting our Company. Other than as set forth above, there are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
