 Release agreement 
 Dear Peter: 
 I refer to your employment contract dated 1 January 2004 as amended by written agreement on 24 November 2005 (“your contract”) and to your request
for an early release from the term of your contract with effect from 4 August 2007. 
 As you know, the initial term of your contract was for three
years until 1 January 2007, which was then to be renewed automatically for a further two years unless either you or TRX Europe gave at least 12 months’ notice to terminate the contract at the end of the initial term. As neither you nor TRX
Europe gave such notice, the term was automatically renewed on 1 January 2007 for a further two years. 
 I am pleased to confirm that TRX Europe Ltd
(“the Company”) is willing to release you from the remainder of the term of your contract and to agree to vary the fixed term period so that it will now expire on 4 August 2007 (“the release agreement”). 
 The terms of the release agreement are as follows: 
  

	1.	You will be released from your contract on 4 August 2007 (“the Termination Date”) when your employment with the Company will terminate upon the expiry of the varied
fixed term period. Until the Termination Date you will continue to receive your normal pay and benefits. 

  

	2.	When your employment terminates, you will be entitled to receive any holiday pay which has accrued to the Termination Date but which you have not yet taken. Any holiday pay owed to
you will be paid with your final salary and taxed in the normal way. 

  

	3.	In consideration of paragraph 12 below and your compliance with the terms of this release agreement, the Company will pay you in August 2007, as agreed and authorized by the CEO,
CFO and COO of TRX, Inc., the following: 

  

	 	(a)	The sum of £96,528.10 which will be fully taxable 

  

	 	(b)	The sum of £6,180.00 into your personal pension plan. 

  

	4.	In addition to the payments in paragraph 3, you are entitled to retain: 

  

	 	(a)	Your laptop computer provided that you have given access to the Company on or before the Termination Date to sanitise the hard drive. You may also retain the docking station and
printer that you currently use with your laptop. 

  

	 	(b)	Your mobile phone telephone number which the Company will arrange to have transferred to you.
