(a) Seller shall sell, assign, transfer and convey to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase, acquire and accept from Seller, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances; and

(b) Buyer shall assume all of the obligations of Seller in respect of the Assumed Liabilities.

2.2 Consideration. The consideration that the Buyer shall pay Seller for the Purchased Assets and other rights of the Buyer hereunder shall be One Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$1,600,000.00)(the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.4 of this Agreement.

2.3 Closing. The Closing shall take place at 9:00 a.m., United States Central Time, on the Closing Date at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxx LLP, in St. Louis, Missouri, or at such other place or time, or in such other method (including via email or other electronic transmission), as the Parties may agree in writing. At Closing, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Buyer possession of the Purchased Assets and the documents and other items identified in Article VII, and the Buyer shall deliver to Seller (a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth on Schedule 2.3, the Purchase Price and (b) the documents and other items identified in Article VIII.

2.4

Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Promptly after the Closing Date, and in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and deliver to Seller a balance sheet of Seller as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”). Such Closing Balance Sheet shall be accompanied by a statement calculating the “Net Working Capital,” which shall be the Total Current Assets of the Business minus the Total Current Liabilities of the Business.

(b) Buyer shall permit Seller and its accountants to review promptly upon request all accounting records, work papers and computations used by Buyer in the preparation of such Closing Balance Sheet and the computation of Net Working Capital. If Seller disputes the Net Working Capital as calculated by Buyer, not more than forty-five (45) calendar days after the date Seller receive Buyer’s calculation thereof, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a notice of its objection to the Closing Balance Sheet (such notice to contain a statement of the basis of Seller’s objection) (a “Notice of Dispute”). Seller hereby waives the right to assert any objection with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet that is not asserted in the Notice of Dispute delivered to Buyer by Seller within forty-five (45) calendar days after the delivery of the Closing Balance

Sheet. If Seller fails to deliver a Notice of Dispute within such forty-five (45) calendar day period, Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Closing Balance Sheet as prepared by Buyer.

(c) Upon receipt of a Notice of Dispute, Buyer shall promptly consult with Seller in good faith with respect to their specified points of disagreement in an effort to resolve the dispute. If any such dispute cannot be resolved by Buyer and Seller within thirty (30) calendar days (or longer, as mutually agreed by the Parties) after Buyer receives the Notice of Dispute, the Parties shall refer the dispute to a national accounting firm in the United States, as agreed by the Parties (the “Accounting Firm”), as an arbitrator to finally determine, as soon as practicable, and in any event within twenty (20) calendar days after such reference, all points of disagreement with respect to the calculation of the Net Working Capital. If the Parties fail to select an Accounting Firm within the thirty (30) calendar day period or any Accounting Firm selected by them shall not have agreed to perform the services called for hereunder, the Accounting Firm shall thereupon be selected in accordance with the International Rules of the American Arbitration Association, with preference being given to any independent, national accounting firm in the United States that has no material relationship with any of the Parties. For purposes of such arbitration, each Party shall submit a proposed calculation of the Net Working Capital. The Accounting Firm shall decide only those matters in dispute, and may not assign a value to any item in dispute which is either higher or lower than the respective calculations for such item submitted by the parties. The Accounting Firm shall apply the terms of Section 2.4 of this Agreement, and shall otherwise conduct the arbitration under such procedures as the Parties may agree or, failing such agreement, under then prevailing International Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The fees and expenses of the arbitration and the Accounting Firm incurred in connection with the calculation of the Net Working Capital shall be shared equally by the Parties; provided, that such fees and expenses shall not include, so long as a Party complies with the procedures of this Section 2.4, the other Party’s outside counsel or accounting fees. All determinations by the Accounting Firm shall be final, conclusive and binding with respect to the calculation of the Net Working Capital in the absence of fraud or manifest error.

(d) The Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows, based on (i) the Net Working Capital set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet finally determined under this Section 2.4 and (ii) the Net Working Capital set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet finally determined under Section 2.4 of the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement: Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount by which the total Net Working Capital set forth on both Closing Balance Sheets is less than Twenty Five Thousand Dollars (US$25,000), or Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount by which the total Net Working Capital set forth on both Closing Balance Sheets is greater than Seventy Five Thousand Dollars (US$75,000); provided that any such payment shall be allocated 44.4% to the Purchase Price hereunder and the remainder shall be allocated to the Purchase Price under the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement. Any payment so required to be made by Buyer or Seller shall be by transfer of immediately available funds not more than five (5) Business Days after final determination thereof.

2.5

Taxes.

(a) All customs, sales, use, value-added, gross receipts, registration, stamp duty or other similar transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the transfer and sale of the Purchased Assets as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, including all recording or filing fees, notarial fees and other similar costs of Closing, that may be imposed upon, or payable, collectible or incurred, shall be borne by the Buyer. The parties agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practical, such information (including reasonable access to books and records) and assistance as is reasonably necessary in an effort to allow Buyer to minimize all such Taxes.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.5(a), any Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Business for any Pre-Closing Periods shall be borne by Seller. The Buyer shall be responsible for any Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Business for any Post-Closing Periods and for any Taxes to the extent set forth in Section 2.5(a). All Taxes collected by Seller from third parties prior to the Effective Time, including, but not limited to, sales and use Taxes and all payroll withholding Taxes, including both employee and employer portions, shall be paid by Seller to the appropriate governmental authority.

(c) Property Taxes covering any Straddle Period shall be pro-rated between Seller and the Buyer based upon the number of days in the Straddle Period ending as of the Effective Time and number of days in the Straddle Period ending after the Effective Time, respectively. The portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Tax period ending as of the Effective Time shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending as of the Effective Time and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period.

(d) The Buyer and Seller agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practical, such information (including reasonable access to books and records) and assistance as is reasonably necessary for the filing of any Tax Return, the conduct of any Tax audit, and for the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any Tax matter. The Buyer and Seller shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any Tax audit or other Tax proceedings and each shall execute and deliver other documents as are reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Section 2.5(d). Any Tax audit or other Tax proceeding shall be deemed to be a third party claim subject to the procedures set forth in Section 9.4 of this Agreement.

(e) The Buyer shall promptly pay or shall cause prompt payment to be made to Seller of all refunds of Taxes and interest thereon received by, or credited against any Tax liability of the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer attributable to Taxes paid by Seller or its Affiliates with respect to any Pre-Closing Period. Seller shall promptly pay or shall cause prompt payment to be made to Buyer of all refunds of Taxes and interest thereon received by, or credited against any Tax liability of Seller or

any Affiliate of the Seller attributable to Taxes paid by Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to any Post-Closing Period.

2.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. Within ninety (90) calendar days following the Closing, the Parties shall mutually agree to an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets. Seller and the Buyer shall report the acquisition of the Purchased Assets for all Tax purposes in a manner consistent with such allocation, and shall take no position inconsistent therewith or contrary thereto, unless required by Law. The allocation may not be amended or changed without the mutual written consent of the Parties. The Buyer and Seller hereby agree and acknowledge that such allocation shall be made in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

2.7

Completion of Transfers.

(a) The entire beneficial interest in and to, and the risk of loss with respect to, the Purchased Assets, shall, regardless of when legal title thereto shall be transferred to the Buyer, pass to the Buyer at Closing as of the Effective Time.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an attempt to assign to the Buyer any legal interest in any of the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities which, as a matter of Law or by the terms of any legally binding contract, engagement or commitment to which Seller is subject, is not assignable without the consent of any other Party, unless such consent shall have been given.

transferred Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities for the benefit and at the risk of the Buyer and shall cooperate with the Buyer in any Lawful and reasonable arrangements designed to provide the benefits of ownership thereof to the Buyer.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.8(b), if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time (i) Seller and the Seller Hong Kong Affiliate have received a written Acquisition Proposal from a third party that the board of directors of Travelzoo believes in good faith to be bona fide, (ii) such Acquisition Proposal did not occur as a result of a breach of this Section 6.8 or the corresponding provision of the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement, (iii) the board of directors of Travelzoo determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or may reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (iv) after consultation with its outside counsel, the board of directors of Travelzoo determines in good faith that the failure to take such actions or any of the actions described in the following clauses (A) and (B) would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of Travelzoo under applicable Law, then Seller may (A) furnish information (including non-public information) with respect to Seller and its subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal; provided that Seller (x) gives Buyer written notice of the identity of such Person and of Seller’s intention to furnish information to, or enter into discussions with, such Person at least one (1) Business Day prior to furnishing any such information to, or entering into discussions with, such Person, (y) will not, and will not allow any of its subsidiaries or Representatives to disclose any non-public information to such Person without first entering or having entered into a confidentiality agreement and (z) contemporaneously with making available any such information to such Person provide to Buyer any information concerning Seller or its subsidiaries provided to such other Person which was not previously provided to or made available to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.8(b) or this Section 6.8(c), prior to the Effective Time, Seller shall in any event be permitted to take the actions described in clauses (A) and (B) above with respect to any Excluded Party for so long as they are an Excluded Party.

As used herein, the term “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide Acquisition Proposal made in writing that (A) is on terms that the board of directors of Travelzoo has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and financial advisors) are more favorable to Travelzoo’s stockholders from a financial point of view than this Agreement and (B) which the board of directors of Travelzoo has determined in good

faith (after consultation with outside counsel and financial advisors) is reasonably likely to be consummated.

(d) Within 24 hours following the Solicitation Period End-Date (or, with respect to any Excluded Party who is determined to be an Excluded Party following the Solicitation Period End-Date in accordance with Section 6.8(b)(B), within 24 hours of such determination), Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of the identity of each Excluded Party and of the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal received from such Excluded Party. From and after the Solicitation Period End-Date, in the event that Seller or its subsidiaries or Representatives receives any of the following, Seller shall promptly (but not more than one (1) Business Day after such receipt) notify Buyer thereof: (i) any Acquisition Proposal or written indication by any Person that would reasonably be expected to result in an Acquisition Proposal (and provide the material terms and conditions thereof); (ii) any request (other than from an Excluded Party, it being understood that Seller shall continue to comply with its obligations under Section 6.8(a)(i) with respect to such Excluded Party) for non-public information relating to the Business other than requests for information in the ordinary course of business and unrelated to an Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) any inquiry or request for (other than from or by an Excluded Party) discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal. Without limitation of Section 6.8, following the Solicitation Period End-Date, Seller shall promptly (within one (1) Business Day) inform Buyer of any material changes, developments, discussions or negotiations relating to any Acquisition Proposal, indication, inquiry or request (including the material terms and conditions thereof and of any material modification thereto), and any material developments, discussions and negotiations, including furnishing copies of any material written inquiries and correspondence, in all cases whether in connection with an Excluded Party or third party pursuant to Section 6.8(c)(B). Without limiting the foregoing, Seller shall promptly (within one (1) Business Day) notify Buyer if it or any of its Affiliates determines to provide non-public information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal pursuant to Section 6.8(c) other than with an Excluded Party, in each case after the Solicitation Period End-Date. Seller shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality agreement with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits Seller from providing such information to Buyer. Seller shall not, and shall cause its of subsidiaries not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission or request under, any standstill or confidentiality agreement to which they or any of their subsidiaries is a party, and Seller shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries, to enforce the provisions of any such agreement; provided, however, that Seller may permit a proposal to be made under a standstill agreement if Travelzoo’s board of directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that Seller’s failure to do so would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the board of directors to the stockholders of Travelzoo under applicable Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.8(b)(ii) to the contrary, if Seller or any of its Affiliates receives an Acquisition Proposal which the board of directors of Seller or any of its Affiliates concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal after giving

effect to all of the adjustments to the terms of this Agreement which may be offered by Buyer, including pursuant to clause (ii) below, the board of directors of Seller or any of its Affiliates may at any time prior to the Effective Time, if it determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action or any of the actions described below would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the board of directors to the stockholders of Seller or any of its Affiliates under applicable Law, (i) approve or recommend such Superior Proposal, and/or (ii) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the board of directors of Seller or any of its Affiliates may not approve or recommend such Superior Proposal pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) (it being agreed that any such purported termination shall be null and void and of no effect) unless such (A) Superior Proposal did not result from a breach by Seller of this Section 6.8, (B) with respect to clause (ii) above, the Company pays the applicable termination fee pursuant to Section 10.2, (C) the Seller shall also terminate the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement pursuant to the corresponding provisions of that agreement and (D):

(i) Seller shall have provided prior written notice to Buyer, of its intention to take any action contemplated in Section 6.8(d) with respect to a Superior Proposal at least four (4) Business Days in advance of taking such action (the “Notice Period”), which notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal); and

(ii) prior to Seller’s approval or recommendation of such Superior Proposal or termination of this Agreement to enter into a proposed definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, Seller shall provide Buyer the opportunity to submit an amended written proposal or to make a new written proposal to the board of directors of Seller during the Notice Period and shall itself and shall cause its Representatives to, during the Notice Period, negotiate in good faith with Buyer (to the extent Buyer so requests in writing) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal. In the event of any subsequent material revisions to such Superior Proposal, Seller shall deliver a new written notice to Buyer and comply with the requirements of this Section 6.8(d), and the Notice Period shall recommence.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 6.8) shall prohibit the board of directors of Travelzoo from disclosing the fact that the board of directors of Travelzoo has received an Acquisition Proposal and the terms of such proposal, if the board of directors of Travelzoo determines, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take any such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law or to comply with obligations under federal securities Laws or the NASDAQ Global Select Market or the rules and regulations of any U.S. securities exchange upon which the capital stock of Travelzoo is listed.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer against and in respect of any and all Losses arising from:

(a) any breach or violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than with respect to any of the representations and warranties made in Article III by Seller and/or Travelzoo which shall be covered by Section 9.1(b));

(b) any breach of any of the representations and warranties made in Article III by Seller and/or Travelzoo;

(c) the ownership, use or possession of the Purchased Assets, or the conduct or operation of the Business, occurring prior to the Effective Time;

(d)

the ownership, use or possession of the Excluded Assets;

(e)

the Excluded Liabilities; or

(f) any claim relating to or arising out of Seller’s use of Client Information prior to the Effective Time.

Any indemnification provided for under this Section 9.1 shall be deemed also to extend to directors, shareholders, officers and employees (in their capacity as such) of the Buyer.

9.2 Indemnification by Buyer. The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller against and in respect of any and all Losses arising from:

(a) any breach or violation of the covenants made in this Agreement by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates;

(b) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made in Article IV by the Buyer;

(c) the ownership, use or possession of the Purchased Assets, or the conduct or operation of the Business, occurring at or after the Effective Time (except, in each such case, to the extent that the Buyer is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1); or

(d) any claim relating to or arising out of Buyer’s use of Client Information after the Effective Time.

Any indemnification provided for under this Section 9.2 shall be deemed also to extend to directors, shareholders, officers and employees (in their capacity as such) of Seller and its Affiliates.

9.3 Notice and Payment of Losses. Upon obtaining knowledge of any Loss, the Party entitled to indemnification (the “Injured Party”) shall promptly notify the Party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such Losses which the Injured Party has determined have given or could give rise to a claim under Section 9.1 or 9.2 (such written notice being hereinafter referred to as a “Notice of Claim”); provided, however, that failure of an Injured Party timely to give a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party shall not release the Indemnifying Party from its indemnity obligations set forth in this Article IX except to the extent that such failure adversely affects the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend such claim or increases the amount of indemnification which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to pay hereunder, in which event the amount of indemnification which the Injured Party shall be entitled to receive shall be reduced to an amount which the Injured Party would have been entitled to receive had such Notice of Claim been timely given. The Injured Party shall use

commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any continuing Losses (including without limitation by using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any applicable insurance proceeds) and to obtain or use any Tax savings, benefit, relief, deduction or credit available to the Injured Party. The Injured Party shall not make any admission of liability, agreement or compromise with any Person in relation to a Loss without prior consultation with the Indemnifying Party. If the Injured Party settles or compromises any third party claims, or initiates action which is for the purpose in whole or in part of causing a claim to be asserted, prior to giving a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be released from its indemnity obligation. A Notice of Claim shall specify in reasonable detail, to the extent known by the Injured Party, the nature and, to the extent reasonably calculable, estimated amount of any such claim giving rise to a right of indemnification. The Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations under Section 9.1 or 9.2, as the case may be, within sixty (60) Business Days of its receipt of a Notice of Claim; provided, however, that for so long as the Indemnifying Party is disputing its liability or defending a third-party claim in good faith pursuant to Section 9.4, its obligations to indemnify the Injured Party with respect thereto shall be suspended until a final unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction is given in relation to such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) Business Days (or such shorter period of time that the Injured Party may be required to respond to any suit or governmental action) after receipt of a Notice of Claim to notify the Injured Party (a) whether or not it disputes its liability to the Injured Party with respect to such Notice of Claim and (b) whether it elects to defend a third-party claim pursuant to Section 9.4.

9.4 Defense of Third-Party Claims. With respect to any action or any claim set forth in a Notice of Claim relating to a third-party claim, the Indemnifying Party may defend, in good faith and at its expense, any such claim or demand, and the Injured Party, at its expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate (but not control) at its expense in the defense of any such third-party claim. So long as the Indemnifying Party assumes and thereafter diligently defends any such third-party claim, the Injured Party shall not settle or compromise such third-party claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. If such claim is settled by the Injured Party without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, the Injured Party shall be deemed to have waived all rights hereunder for money damages arising out of such claim. The Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise such third-party claim without the consent of the Injured Party solely for monetary damages with no admission of fault on the part of the Injured Party, unless there has not been a complete release of the Injured Party, in which case the Indemnifying Party may not settle or compromise such third-party claim without the consent of the Injured Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Injured Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its representatives all records and other materials reasonably required for use in contesting any third-party claim.The Injured Party shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of all such claims. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend any such third-party claims, or elects to defend such claims but thereafter fails to diligently pursue such defense, the Injured Party shall have no obligation to do so, but may defend, settle or compromise any such third-party claim at the risk and expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will not, however, be responsible for any Losses if and to

the extent that they arise from action taken or omitted to be taken by the Injured Party in bad faith, fraudulently, negligently or as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the Injured Party.

9.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All of the representations and warranties made by any Party in Article III and Article IV shall survive for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date and thereafter to the extent a Notice of Claim is made prior to such expiration with respect to any breach of such representation or warranty occurring prior to such expiration and set out in such Notice of Claim; provided that the representations and warranties of the parties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.7, with respect to Seller, Sections 3.13 and 3.14, with respect to Travelzoo, Sections 4.1 and 4.2, with respect to Buyer, and Sections 5.1 and 5.2, with respect to Azzurro (collectively for all parties, the “Fundamental Representations”), shall survive the Closing Date indefinitely. No party shall be entitled to indemnification for breach of any representation and warranty set forth in Article III and Article IV unless a Notice of Claim of such breach has been given to the Indemnifying Party within the period of survival of such representation and warranty as set forth herein.

9.6

Limitation on Indemnification.

(a) The provisions for indemnity under Sections 9.1(b) and 9.2(b), as the case may be, shall be effective only when the aggregate amount of any single Loss (or series of related Losses) for which indemnification is sought from Seller or the Buyer, under Sections 9.1(b) or 9.2(b), respectively, when added to the amounts for which indemnification is sought under the corresponding provisions of the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement, exceeds Ten Thousand Dollars (US$10,000.00) in the aggregate, but then to the full extent of such Losses (including the first $10,000.00 of such Losses).

(b) The provisions for indemnity under Sections 9.1(b) and 9.2(b), as the case may be, shall be effective only when the aggregate amount of all Losses, for which indemnification is sought from Seller or the Buyer, under Sections 9.1(b) or 9.2(b), respectively (excluding Losses for which indemnification would not be available as a result of clause (a) above), when added to the amounts for which indemnification is sought under the corresponding provisions of the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement, exceeds Twenty Thousand Dollars (US$20,000.00) (the “Indemnity Basket”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all Losses in excess of such amount.

(c) The indemnification obligations of Seller or the Buyer pursuant to Sections 9.1(b) or 9.2(b), as the case may be, shall be effective only until the aggregate dollar amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of all Losses indemnified against under such Sections, when added to the amounts of Losses indemnified against under the corresponding provisions of the Hong Kong Purchase Agreement, equals Three Hundred Sixty Thousand Dollars (US$360,000.00) (the “Indemnity Cap”).

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations of Sections 9.6(a), 9.6(b) and 9.6(c) shall not apply to any breach arising out of the Fundamental Representations or from the fraud or intentional misrepresentation of a party.

(e) All indemnification obligations shall be paid in U.S. Dollars in the United States.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no liability, obligation, contract or other matter shall constitute a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller or entitle the Buyer to indemnification hereunder, to the extent that Seller demonstrates:

(i) that the liability, obligation, contract or other matter arises or is materially increased in circumstances in which the Buyer acts or omits to act after the Closing and knows or should reasonably have known that such act or omission would give rise to or increase such a claim and a reasonable alternative course of action which would not prejudice the Buyer was available to the Buyer which would not have given rise to such claim or a claim of such amount;

(ii) that the liability, obligation, contract or other matter is set out in the Disclosure Schedules;

(iii) that the liability, obligation, contract or matter which would otherwise constitute a breach was actually known to the Buyer as of the date hereof or actually known to the Buyer as of the Closing Date and would have given the Buyer the right not to proceed with the Closing had the Buyer elected to exercise such right;

(iv) that the liability, obligation, contract or other matter arises or is increased as a result of any increase in Tax rates after Closing, or the passing of any Law with retrospective effect, or any provision or reserve related to the Closing being insufficient by reason only of any increase in Tax rates after Closing;

(v) that the liability, obligation, contract or other matter arises as a result of any change in the accounting policy or practice of the Business introduced after Closing; or

(vi) that the liability, obligation, contract or other matter arises or is increased as a result of any act or omission of Seller undertaken prior to Closing, at the written request of, or with the prior written approval of, the Buyer.

(g) If Seller pays to the Buyer an amount in respect of any claim under this Agreement and the Buyer subsequently recovers from a third party (including an insurer) a sum which is related to that claim, the Buyer shall promptly repay to Seller so much of the amount paid by Seller, as applicable, as does not exceed the sum recovered from the third party less all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Buyer in obtaining that payment and in recovering that sum from the third party.

(h) Seller shall not be liable for any breach or non-fulfillment of any of the representations or warranties contained herein, if and to the extent that the Loss occasioned thereby has been recovered under the same or any other representation or warranty contained herein.

(i) Nothing shall diminish the Buyer’s common law obligation to mitigate its loss.

9.7 Characterization of Indemnity Payments. Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered, to the extent permissible under Law, as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

9.8 Exclusive Remedy. In the absence of fraud, and except for obtaining equitable remedies, the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX shall provide the exclusive remedy for breaches of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement or any other agreement ancillary hereto executed pursuant to this Agreement.

3.3 Licensee shall submit to Travelzoo for prior review and written approval any new materials (whether in written, electronic, or other form) using the Licensed Marks on or and in connection with the Licensed Services or Licensed Business Processes in a manner other than that which has previously been approved under this Section 3, which approval may be granted or denied, in Travelzoo’s sole and reasonable discretion. Travelzoo shall make a good faith effort to provide approval or suggestions for change within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of any materials. If Travelzoo does not make any such approval or suggestion within such fifteen (15) day period, such new materials shall be deemed approved.

In the event Licensee’s use of the Licensed Marks on and in connection with the Licensed Services or Licensed Business

3.7 Licensee shall, during the term of this Agreement: (i) comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to its advertising, marketing, provision, performance, offer for sale and sale of the Licensed Services and performance of the Licensed Business Processes and shall not at any time knowingly take any action that would cause Travelzoo or Licensee to be in violation of any of such applicable laws and regulations; and (ii) obtain any and all licenses, permits, approvals or authorizations required by any governmental entity or agency having jurisdiction over the advertisement, marketing, provision, performance, offer or sale and sale of the Licensed Services and performance of the Licensed Business Processes.

3.8 Licensee acknowledges, understands and agrees that it shall not knowingly perform, do, or cause any act to be done, or fail to take any action, during the term of this Agreement, or knowingly assist any third party in performing, doing or causing any act to be done, that would in any way or manner or to any degree be detrimental to, injure, disparage, or impair: (i) the Licensed Marks or the goodwill associated therewith, the Licensed Software, the Licensed Trade Secrets, and the Licensed Works; (ii) any applications for registration or registrations therefor; (iii) the respective goodwill related to the Licensed Marks; (iv) Travelzoo’s federal, state and common law and other rights in or to the Licensed Marks, the Licensed Software, the Licensed Trade Secrets, and the Licensed Works; (v) Travelzoo’s right, title, interest, and ownership in and to the Licensed Marks, the Licensed Software, the Licensed Trade Secrets, and the Licensed Works; and (vi) the validity and enforceability of the any of the foregoing.

3.10 During and after the term of this Agreement, Licensee agrees to assist Travelzoo, at Travelzoo’s expense, in any way, for Travelzoo’s sole and exclusive benefit, in protecting, obtaining and maintaining registrations for the Licensed Marks, the

Licensed Works, and the Licensed Software in Travelzoo's sole name anywhere to the extent that Travelzoo, in its sole discretion, deems such protection or registrations necessary. Such assistance shall include, but not be limited to, signing any documents to verify and confirm Travelzoo's sole and exclusive right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Marks and any and all goodwill associated therewith, the Licensed Works, and the Licensed Software.

3.11 During the term of this Agreement, in all public uses of the Licensed Marks on and in connection with the Licensed Services or Licensed Business Processes, where commercially practicable and possible, Licensee will use its commercially reasonable efforts to indicate that the Licensed Marks are owned by Travelzoo and shall use the appropriate notice symbol (® if the Licensed Xxxx is registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or SM or TM) directly adjacent to every use of the Licensed Marks.

3.12 All use of the Licensed Marks by Licensee shall inure solely to the benefit of Travelzoo. All goodwill accrued by, and due to, Licensee’s use of the Licensed Marks anywhere shall be the sole and exclusive property of Travelzoo.

3.13 Travelzoo retains the right to use the Licensed Marks, the Licensed Software, the Licensed Trade Secrets, and the Licensed Works on or in connection with such products and services, directly or through affiliates or other licensees, or at any place and by any method of distribution that Travelzoo, in its sole discretion, may elect outside of the Territory. For the avoidance of doubt, but subject to the restrictions set forth below, Licensee’s exclusive rights in and to the Licensed Services, the Licensed Business Methods, the Licensed Marks, the Licensed Software, the Licensed Trade Secrets, and the Licensed Works within the Territory shall not be violated by Travelzoo as a result of user-initiated communications, by or from a user located within the Territory, to any website owned and maintained by Travelzoo in connection with the provision of Licensed Services outside of the Territory.

11.2 In the event of any dispute hereunder, the parties shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute through discussions by their authorized representatives. Any dispute which is not so resolved within fifteen(15) calendar days after the start of such discussions (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed) shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance within the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration proceedings, including the rendering of an award, shall take place in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York. The arbitration panel shall consist of three persons, one chosen by each of the parties, and the third chosen by such two arbitrators. If the first two arbitrators are unable to agree on the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA. If either such party does not select an arbitrator within ten (10) days after a request for arbitration hereunder, the arbitrator chosen by the other shall act as the sole arbitrator. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of AAA. The award of such arbitral tribunal shall be final. Judgment upon such award may be entered by the prevailing party in any court having jurisdiction. The award of the arbitral tribunal may be alternatively or cumulatively for monetary damages.

Other additions and changes to Licensed Software shall be made and implemented as provided in the IP License.

(e) Host shall in a professional manner consistent with recognized industry best practices, maintain, monitor, manage, and service a Web site for Customer at which Customer provides, performs, advertises, markets, offers for sale and sells Licensed Services and performs Licensed Business Processes at *.xxxxxxxxx.xxx, or such other URL of Customer as Customer may direct in a manner consistent with Host’s standards (“Customer’s Websites”), including but not limited to the provision of Upgrade Software and New Software (as such term is defined in the IP License);

1.2

Availability of Services.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Host shall provide the Hosting Services and access to the Licensed Software and Customer Websites at service levels consistent with Host’s historic business practices and, to the extent such practices improve over such historic business practices, such improved practices, including without limitation, the data transmission capacity to and from the Host Platform and the Internet, operational memory and storage capacity of the Host Servers, data back-up procedures, back-up power availability, physical and electronic security controls, business continuity and disaster recovery plans by means of back up and recovery facilities and services, and environmental controls for Host Server areas.

(b) Customer acknowledges that from time to time the Hosting Services may be inaccessible or inoperable due to (i) equipment malfunctions; (ii) periodic maintenance procedures or repairs which Host may undertake from time to time (such maintenance to be scheduled during off-peak hours in consultation with Customer); or (iii) causes beyond the control of Host or which are not reasonably foreseeable by Host, for example, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links, including delays or failures due to Customer’s Internet service provider, hostile network attacks, network congestion or other failures. Due to such aforementioned circumstances, Customer acknowledges that Host does not have complete control over the stability and throughput speed of the Internet or the availability of Hosting Services on a continuous or uninterrupted basis. Customer further acknowledges that Host cannot guarantee Host Platform connectivity speeds utilizing VPN connections via the Internet.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the Hosting Services shall be made available to Customer and the Customer Websites made available to End Users twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week except for periods of unavailability due to (i) scheduled maintenance and required repairs; and (ii) causes beyond the control of Host or which are not reasonably foreseeable by Host (“Availability”).

Customers shall not be entitled to a credit: (i) in the event that any loss or interruption of Hosting

Services was caused by Customers or End Users, agents or other third-parties; or (ii) prior to Customer’s notification to Host of said loss or interruption. Subject to Customers’ rights under Section 6.2(c) below, each Customer understands and agrees that this Section sets forth Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any such loss or interruption of the Hosting Services.

(d) Host will provide at least two (2) Host employees based in the Territory and deeply familiar and experienced with the Host Servers, Licensed Software and Host Platform who shall devote no less than 75% of their work effort to ensuring the delivery and availability of the Hosting Services at Host’s direction and consistent with this Agreement.

VOTING AGREEMENT

THIS VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of _______________, 2009, is between TRAVELZOO INC., a Delaware corporation (“Travelzoo”), and XXXXX XXXXXX (the “Stockholder).

Background

(a) Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Travelzoo K.K., a Japanese corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Travelzoo (“Travelzoo Japan”), and Travelzoo (Asia Pacific) Limited, a Hong Kong corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Travelzoo (“Travelzoo HK”), are entering into separate Asset Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with companies (the “Azzurro Companies”) wholly-owned by Azzurro Capital Inc., a Cayman Islands corporation (“Azzurro”) which is controlled by the Stockholder, pursuant to which the Azzurro Companies are purchasing the assets and businesses previously owned and operated by Travelzoo Japan and Travelzoo HK (the “Asia Pacific Business”).

(b) The Stockholder is the founder of Travelzoo, a stockholder of Travelzoo and a member of the Board of Directors of Travelzoo. The Stockholder has not participated in deliberations of the Board of Directors relating to the Purchase Agreements, and the Board of Directors of Travelzoo has established a committee consisting of the independent directors which has reviewed, approved and recommended the Purchase Agreements and related agreements which Travelzoo and its subsidiaries will enter into with Azzurro and the Azzurro Companies.

(c) To avoid any future conflicts of interest relating to the dealings between Travelzoo and Azzurro and their affiliates, the parties are entering into the Agreement to set forth certain restrictions on the Stockholder in respect of the voting of his shares in Travelzoo and in respect of his participation in actions by the Board of Directors of Travelzoo relating to such dealings.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Voting. The Stockholder agrees to vote (or cause to be voted) any shares or common stock or other securities of Travelzoo over which he has voting control, with respect to any proposal relating to the Asia Pacific Business or Azzuro or the Azzurro Companies, in the same manner and in the same proportion (for, against, withheld, and/or abstain without giving effect to any broker non-votes) that all other securities of the same class are voted at any meeting of the stockholders of Travelzoo, or in any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

2. Board Deliberations. As a member of the Board of Directors of Travelzoo, shall abstain from all deliberations and decisions of the Board of Directors of Travelzoo with respect to any matters relating to any dealings, agreements or arrangements

VOTING AGREEMENT

between Travelzoo or any of its affiliates and Azzurro or any of its affiliates, including with respect to the exercise of the Option referred to in the Purchase Agreements, except to the extent his vote shall be required to constitute a quorum or otherwise to permit the Board of Directors to take action, in which case he shall vote with the majority of the other members of the Board of Directors (or shall abstain in case of a tie among the votes of the other directors).

3. Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreements) and shall remain in full force and effect until the Stockholder’s direct or indirect ownership interest in Travelzoo or its successors is less than 10%, or his direct and indirect ownership in the Azzurro Companies or their successors is less than 10%; provided, that Travelzoo may, by written notice to the Investor, extend the period during which such obligations shall remain in effect if the Board of Directors of Travelzoo shall reasonably determine, based on the advice of its independent accountants, that such extension is required in order to avoid adverse accounting results for Travelzoo, such extension to remain in effect only for so long as such circumstances continue to apply.

Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendments, Waivers, Etc. This Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified, except by a written document executed by the parties hereto.

(b) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

(c) Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall governed by and be construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed and performed entirely within the state, without reference to its choice of law rules
