ISSUE-BY-ISSUE TALLY (IBIT) PRICING SYSTEM

  1. Circulation delivery of Travel + Leisure Golf Magazine (the “Magazine”) is measured on an issue-by-issue tally (IBIT) pricing system for full-run circulation advertising only. The IBIT pricing system is administered by comparing, for each issue of the Magazine in which an advertiser books space and remits a cash payment for such advertisement, the issue’s total audited circulation as reported in the Magazine’s Circulation Statement (issued by BPA Worldwide (BPA) for the first and second half of the 2008 calendar year) and the published total circulation rate base as set forth in the Magazine’s rate card.
      
  2. In order to permit advertisers to apply earned IBIT credit in a timely manner, BPA Circulation Statements are used to calculate IBIT credit. The calculation will be made following the issuance of the Circulation Statements for each six month BPA reporting period.
           
  3. Total audited circulation for the Magazine is comprised of qualified paid plus qualified non-paid.
        
  4.   
  5. IBIT credits will be calculated on an individual insertion basis and will only be credited to an advertiser if the total audited circulation of the issue booked by the advertiser is lower by more than two percent (2%) than its published circulation rate base.
      
  6. If the total audited circulation of the issue booked by an advertiser is lower by more than two percent (2%) than its published circulation rate base, the advertiser’s IBIT credit will be calculated by multiplying the net cost after agency commissions (excluding production premiums) (“Net Cost”) of the advertiser’s insertion in that issue by the difference between two percent and the actual percentage by which the total audited circulation is less than its published circulation rate base. By way of example, if the “Net Cost” of the advertiser’s insertion is $100,000 and the total audited circulation of an issue is three percent lower than its published circulation rate base, the IBIT credit would be calculated as follows: $100,000 x (3% - 2%) = $1,000.
         
  7. IBIT credit must be used against future insertions not yet ordered or booked, must be applied at the Magazine and must be used within 12 months after the issuance of the Circulation Statements for the BPA reporting period in which the credit was earned. An advertiser may apply IBIT credit to any brand, product or division within the same advertiser parent company.
       
  8. IBIT credit will be issued net of agency commissions and must be applied to invoices net of agency commissions. No agency commissions will be paid by the Magazine on IBIT credit.
           
  9. IBIT credit may be applied to production charges.
            
  10. The Magazine will not refund IBIT credit as cash.
         
  11. Only full-run circulation advertising in regular issues as reported in Paragraph 2 of the Circulation Statements issued by BPA are eligible for IBIT credit. The following are not eligible for IBIT credit: (a) special issues published in addition to the normal frequency of the Magazine (including those listed in Paragraph 2 of the BPA Circulation Statements) and (b) any issues specifically excluded from being eligible for I I IBIT per the Magazine’s rate card.
          
  12. None of barter (whether cash paid or trade), standby or remnant advertising is eligible for IBIT credit.
