Item 8.01   Other Events.
On December 16, 2010, United Air Lines, Inc. (“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 Airlines, Inc. (“Continental”) on the reservations system used by Continental.
It is expected that such termination will not have an impact on Travelport’s financial results until 2012, at the earliest, and it is expected that United’s integration work will likely require use of the Apollo system until at least some point in 2012. It is expected 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. If the United-Continental reservations system integration is delayed for any reason, including United requesting Travelport to provide additional termination assistance and continuation of service, the financial impact on Travelport may occur later in 2012 or may not occur at all.
