RE:                              Letter Agreement for Revenue Reconciliation

Dear ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇:

This letter agreement (“Letter Agreement”) sets forth the mutual understandings which representatives of Federal Express Corporation (“FedEx”) and United States Postal Service (“USPS”) reached on March 17, 2004 with respect to streamlining the revenue reconciliation process pursuant to the Transportation Agreement (“Agreement”) between the parties.

USPS and FedEx perform a manual revenue reconciliation process each month as contemplated by Exhibit C of the Agreement. Historically, both parties have spent an inordinate amount of time conducting research of many categories of disputed items. The parties desire to reduce the time spent on such research and have agreed as follows:

1.                                       Open Bypass Containers.  The calculation described in the last two sentences of Exhibit B, paragraph A.3. is modified as follows: If FedEx must re-handle packages in a bypass container due to operational needs, the billing will be adjusted and a credit will be issued to the USPS. The process for determining the credit entails reviewing the list of containers reported by FedEx as having been opened (“FedEx List”). FedEx will issue a credit to USPS for all items reported on the FedEx List. This credit will be made for the amount of handling charges assessed to USPS as based on the equivalent number of packages in the container type reported on the FedEx List. The equivalent number of packages is determined based on the table following paragraph A.3 of Exhibit B. The FedEx List will then be compared to the list developed by USPS which reflects the D&R Tags of each package scanned into a bypass container (“USPS List”). The bypass containers identified on the FedEx List will be compared to those reported on the USPS List and those appearing on both lists will be deleted from the USPS

List to avoid the issuance of a duplicate credit. Subsequently, the USPS List will be reviewed and FedEx will then issue a credit in an amount of [ * ] of the handling charges for the packages reported on the remaining USPS List; provided, however, that no credit will be issued for any bypass containers destined to a Trucking Location or any bypass container with less than 10 pieces as indicated on the USPS List. The parties agree that the percentage amount to be credited may be revised based on mutual agreement.

2.                                       Day-turn Operations versus Night-turn Operations. The parties acknowledge that USPS contracts with third party handlers (“THS”) to build containers for product tendered to FedEx for the Day-turn Operations only (with exception of Anchorage, Alaska where THS builds containers for Day-turn and Night-turn Operations). THS scans the packages which are placed in such containers (“THS Scans”). THS Scans only occur on product destined for the Day Sort except as noted above. Therefore, the parties agree that FedEx shall refund [ * ] of the fuel and non-fuel charges on packages which are derived from the THS Scans and rated as Night-turn Operations. Instead, such packages shall be rated and charged with handling charges for Day-turn Operations. The parties agree that the refund percentage may be revised on mutual agreement.

3.                                       ULD Discrepancy. USPS and FedEx each maintain lists of the type of ULD used to transport product tendered under the Agreement. USPS’s list is known as the assignment log and it lists the D&R Tag number for each ULD on such log. FedEx obtains the ULD type when it performs a pick-up scan of the D&R tag on a ULD (“FedEx ULD Type”). The D&R tag numbers on such ULD’s are also listed on the FedEx Flight Data Record (“FDR”). The FedEx ULD Type is used to bill the cubic footage pursuant to the table in Exhibit B, Paragraph A.3. In order to resolve discrepancies between ULD type as reported between FedEx and USPS, the parties agree that the FDR shall prevail. For those instances in which a D&R Tag reported by USPS is not located on the FDR, the parties agree that the cubic footage reported on the USPS assignment log will be compared to the cubic footage billed by ▇▇▇▇▇. The difference between the two amounts shall be adjusted by [ * ] of the fuel and non-fuel charges. The parties agree that the adjustment percentage may be revised on mutual agreement.

4.                                       Ad-HocTruck Volume. The parties acknowledge that excess volume from origin locations is transported by truck to the hub or major sort location for processing during the Day-turn Operations. For purposes of rating, the parties agree that each truck shall be assumed to carry [ * ]. The parties agree that this assumption may be revised on mutual agreement. FedEx will calculate the transportation charges to be added to the month-end revenue reconciliation for the volume on each truck as follows:

a.                                       [ * ] X non-fuel transport rate set forth in Exhibit B, paragraph A, subparagraph 1 of the Agreement; plus

b.                                      [ * ] X fuel transport rate set forth in Exhibit B, paragraph A, subparagraph 2 of the Agreement.

*                 Blank spaces contained confidential information which has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

If you are in agreement with the terms and conditions set forth in this Letter Agreement, please execute in the space provided below.
