        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, Executive and the Company have agreed and do hereby agree as follows:

1A.    EMPLOYMENT.    The Company agrees to employ Executive during the Term (as defined in Section 2A below) as President, Travel and Executive accepts and agrees to such employment. Executive shall be responsible for overseeing the operations of business units as identified by the Company as part of Travel, including initially Expedia, Hotels.com, Interval International, TV Travel Shop and the forthcoming U.S. cable travel network; provided that in no event shall Executive's duties and responsibilities hereunder adversely affect the title, duties, operational authority, reporting responsibilities or the like of senior executives of the business units of Expedia and/or Hotels.com whose operations Executive is responsible for overseeing and that have contractual rights in respect thereof. During Executive's employment with the Company, Executive shall do and perform all services and acts necessary or advisable to fulfill the duties and responsibilities as are commensurate and consistent with Executive's position and shall render such services on the terms set forth herein. During Executive's employment with the Company, Executive shall report directly to the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO"). Executive shall have such powers and duties with respect to the Company as may reasonably be assigned to Executive by the CEO, to the extent consistent with Executive's position and status. Executive agrees to devote all of Executive's working time, attention and efforts to the Company and to perform the duties of Executive's position in accordance with the Company's policies as in effect from time to time; provided that nothing herein shall preclude Executive from (x) continuing to serve on any board of directors or trustees or advisory committee of any business entity or any charitable organization disclosed on Exhibit B hereto, (y) accepting appointment to any additional boards of directors or trustees or advisory committees of any business entity or any charitable organization, subject to the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) or (y) managing personal investments, provided in each case, and in the aggregate, that such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Executive's duties hereunder or violate the provisions of Section 2(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions (as defined in Section 2A below). Executive's principal place of employment shall be the Company's principal corporate offices located in New York, New York.

2A.    TERM OF AGREEMENT.    The term ("Term") of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of three (3) years, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of the Standard Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Standard Terms and Conditions") or extended pursuant to the mutual agreement of the Company and Executive.

3A.    COMPENSATION.

(a)    BASE SALARY.    During the Term, the Company shall pay Executive an annual base salary of $600,000 (the "Base Salary"), payable in equal biweekly installments or in accordance with the Company's payroll practice as in effect from time to time.

(b)    DISCRETIONARY BONUS.    During the Term, Executive shall be eligible to receive discretionary annual bonuses. In addition, Executive shall be eligible to receive future grants of restricted stock

and/or stock options and other equity based incentives on the same basis as are generally made to other senior executives of the Company.

(c)    RESTRICTED STOCK.    In consideration of Executive's entering into this agreement and as an inducement for Executive to join the Company, Executive shall be granted 75,000 restricted shares of common stock of the Company (the "Restricted Stock"), pursuant to the 2000 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan and a restricted stock agreement issued there under, subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Compensation Committee"). The date of grant of the Restricted Stock shall be the later of (x) the Effective Date and (y) the date such grant is approved by the Compensation Committee. 25,000 shares of the Restricted Stock shall vest and no longer be subject to restriction or risk of forfeiture sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, unless prior to such date, Executive's employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in Section 1(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions) or due to Executive's resignation without Good Reason (as defined in Section 1(d) of the Standard Terms and Conditions). The remaining 50,000 shares of the Restricted Stock (the "Performance Stock") (x) will be subject to such performance conditions as the Compensation Committee determines are appropriate and advisable to meet the conditions of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as currently in effect, as such fixed performance conditions (e.g., no further Compensation Committee discretion) shall be reflected in the minutes of the meeting of the properly constituted Compensation Committee under Section 162(m) considering such performance conditions (the "Performance Conditions"), and will be no less favorable to Executive than the performance conditions made applicable by the Compensation Committee to any restricted stock awards granted to other similarly situated executive officers of the Company proximate to the Effective Date (e.g., in December 2002 and/or January or February of 2003) and (y) shall vest and no longer be subject to restriction or risk of forfeiture on the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Performance Stock Vesting Date"), subject to satisfaction of the Performance Conditions and Executive's continued employment with the Company through the Performance Stock Vesting Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Executive's employment is (i) terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in Section 1(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions) or (ii) due to Executive's resignation for Good Reason (as defined in Section 1(d) of the Standard Terms and Conditions) on any day of the calendar year other than the last day of the Company's taxable year in any given year, all of the above-referenced Performance Stock shall immediately vest and cease to be subject to further restriction or forfeiture as of the date of such termination of Executive's employment. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Executive's termination of employment with the Company prior to the Performance Stock Vesting Date due to Executive's death or Disability (as defined in Section 1(b) of the Standard Terms and Conditions), a pro-rata portion of the Performance Stock shall immediately vest and cease to be subject to further restriction or forfeiture as of the date of such termination of Executive's employment, based upon the percentage of the period from the Effective Date through the Performance Stock Vesting Date that shall have elapsed through and including the date of such termination of employment. In the event of any change in corporate capitalization which occurs prior to the date of grant of the Restricted Stock which results in an adjustment under Section 3 of the Company's 2000 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan, the number of shares of Restricted Stock shall be adjusted to reflect the adjustments made to outstanding awards under the 2000 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan.

(d)    BENEFITS.    From the Effective Date through the date of termination of Executive's employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall be entitled to participate in any welfare, health and life insurance and pension benefit and incentive programs as may be adopted from time to time by the Company on the same basis as that provided to similarly situated employees of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

(i)    Reimbursement for Business Expenses.    During the Term, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by Executive in performing Executive's duties for the Company, on the same basis as similarly situated employees and in accordance with the Company's policies as in effect from time to time.

(ii)    Vacation.    During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company applicable to similarly situated Executives of the Company generally.

Executive recognizes that the information she will possess about these other employees is not generally known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates in developing their respective businesses and in securing and retaining customers, and will be acquired by Executive because of Executive's business position with the Company. Executive agrees that, during the term of Executive's employment hereunder (and for a period of 12 months thereafter), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or recruit any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates who is or was employed by any of them as of the date of Executive's termination of employment (or during the immediately preceding twelve months) for the purpose of being employed by Executive or by any business, individual, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity on whose behalf Executive is acting as an agent, representative or employee and that Executive will not convey any such confidential information or trade secrets about other employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person except within the scope of Executive's duties hereunder; provided that the forgoing restrictions shall not apply to any employee whose employment with the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates was terminated by the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, as applicable, without cause.

All Confidential Information and all Employee Developments shall remain the sole property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. The Executive shall acquire no proprietary interest in any Confidential Information or Employee Developments developed or acquired during the Term. To the extent the Executive may, by operation of law or otherwise, acquire any right, title or interest in or to any Confidential Information or Employee Development, the Executive hereby assigns to the Company all such proprietary rights.

(h)    Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by Executive of this Section 2 will be inadequate and that damages flowing from such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that upon Executive's violation of any provision of this Section 2 the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing in this Section 2 shall be deemed to limit the Company's remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.

(i)    SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS.    The obligations contained in this Section 2 shall, to the extent provided in this Section 2, survive the termination or expiration of Executive's employment with the Company and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that any restriction in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state.

3.    TERMINATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS.    This Agreement (together with the Employment Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and terminates and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has made, and is not making, and in executing this Agreement, the Executive has not relied upon, any representations, promises or inducements except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement. Executive hereby represents and warrants that by entering into this Agreement, Executive will not breach an employment agreement with Executive's current employer.

4.    ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS.    This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or

5

obligations hereunder, provided that, in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company with or to any other individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and all references herein to the "Company" shall refer to such successor.

5.    WITHHOLDING.    The Company shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.

6.    HEADING REFERENCES.    Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. References to "this Agreement" or the use of the term "hereof" shall refer to these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.

7.    WAIVER; MODIFICATION.    Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing executed by each party hereto.

8.    SEVERABILITY.    In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public policy, only the portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this Agreement.

9.    INDEMNIFICATION.    The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless for acts and omissions in Executive's capacity as an officer, director or employee of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law; provided that the neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be obligated hereunder to indemnify Executive for any losses incurred by Executive as a result of acts constituting "Cause" as described in Section 1(c) of this Agreement.
