Amendment No. 1 effective as of 7 June 2004 ("Amendment") to the Sponsorship Agreement dated 17 December 2001 ("Agreement"), by and between the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, a not-for-profit California corporation ("ICANN"), and Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques SC (SITA), a limited liability co-operative society ("Sponsor"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have that meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.

Whereas, on 25 May 2004 the ICANN Board of Directors adopted resolution 04.44 authorizing the ICANN President and General Counsel to negotiate and implement modifications to SITA's Sponsorship Agreement with ICANN for operation of the .aero top-level domain as deemed necessary to provide for the offering of such proposed population of the second level with airline and/or airport location code identifiers by SITA, provided that the offering of such second level allocation by SITA would be in accordance with and consistent with all other applicable contractual limitations in the Sponsorship Agreement;

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto amend the Agreement as follows:

  1. Section 1.23, in the form attached hereto, is hereby added to Section 1 of the Agreement.
  2. Section 3.6 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with a new Section 3.6 in the form attached hereto.
  3. Section 3.9 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with a new Section 3.9 in the form attached hereto.
  4. Attachment 20 to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with a new Attachment 20, in the form attached hereto.
  5. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Agreement and the Appendices thereto shall remain and continue in full force and effect. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

The parties have duly executed this Amendment as of the date first written above.
