 Exhibit 10.1 
 October 13, 2006 
 Mr. Richard L. Markee 
 Toys “R” Us, Inc. 
 One Geoffrey Way 
 Wayne, New Jersey 07470 
 Dear Rick: 
 This will confirm that your last date of employment with Toys “R” Us, Inc. (the “Company”) will be on November 1, 2006 (the
“Termination Date”), and that your termination will be treated as a voluntary termination by you other than for Good Reason, Disability or Retirement for the purposes of Section 4(e) of your Retention Agreement with the Company, dated
as of May 1, 1997, as amended (the “Retention Agreement”). The Company hereby waives the four-month Mandatory Notice Period for your resignation as defined in the May 6, 1999 amendment to the Retention Agreement and relieves you
of your obligation thereunder not to disclose your departure. 
 Within 30 days following the Termination Date, you will be paid any salary
earned and unpaid through the Termination Date, and the Company will pay your salary for all unused vested vacation through November 1, 2006. We intend and anticipate that these payments of accrued salary and vacation will be deposited directly
into your account on the next regular payroll date after the Termination Date. 
 Section 4(e) of the Retention Agreement provides that
upon your voluntary termination other than for Good Reason, Disability or Retirement, the Company will have no further obligation to you other than to pay you all payments and benefits due, in accordance with the Company’s benefits plans
through the Termination Date. Nevertheless, provided that at the time of your termination or as soon as possible thereafter you sign a Separation and Release Agreement in the form attached to this letter as Exhibit A and do not challenge or revoke
such release within the 7-day revocation period set forth therein, the Company will pay you, outside of the Retention Agreement, one or more lump sum payments not to exceed $1,200,000.00 in the aggregate, representing 75% of the incentive bonus that
you would have earned for fiscal year 2006, (with the individual objective component of the bonus being paid out at 100% of target, subject to the pro-ration in accordance herewith, and the financial component of the bonus being based 75% on

 Mr. Richard L. Markee 
 October 13, 2006 
  

 actual overall consolidated performance of the Company and 25% being based on the performance of the Babies
“R” Us division for such year, also subject to pro-ration in accordance herewith) had you remained employed through the end of fiscal year 2006 (as well as up to and including the date such bonus payment would have been made). The 75%
factor represents a pro-ration based on the number of months that you will have served in fiscal year 2006 (9 of 12 months). This payment will be made to you as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	$318,600.00, shall be paid in a lump sum, no later than March 15, 2007. This amount represents a 100% payment of the target amount of your individual objectives portion of the
incentive bonus for fiscal year 2006, pro rated by the 75% factor. 

  

	 	•	 	An additional payment, if any, based upon actual financial results of the Company for fiscal year 2006. This payment will be based 25% upon the actual financial results of the
Babies “R” Us division and 75% upon the actual overall consolidated performance of the Company. The payment of the financial portion of the bonus, if any, will also be pro rated by the 75% factor and will be made at the same time that
bonuses for fiscal year 2006 are paid to employees, expected to be in April 2007 (but in no event later than April 15, 2007). 

  

	 	•	 	The maximum bonus to be paid to you (covering both individual and financial performance) shall not exceed $1,200,000.00. 

 Your outstanding equity awards will continue to be governed by the terms of the Toys “R” Us Holdings, Inc. 2005 Management Equity Plan
(“MEP”) and the applicable award agreements. In general, that means that, pursuant to Section 6.2 of the MEP, you will have a period of 30 days after the Termination Date to exercise your 40,953 vested stock options, and your 245,718
unvested options will expire and be forfeited as of your Termination Date. Pursuant to Section 9.6 of the MEP, you are notified that Toys “R” Us Holdings, Inc. intends to exercise its rights under Section 9.4 of the MEP to
repurchase your outstanding restricted stock awards (20,561 common strips), and any shares you acquire upon exercise of your vested options, at “Fair Market Value” as of the date of repurchase. Unless you receive further notice to the
contrary, the date of that repurchase will be 30 days after the Termination Date and you shall be paid fully in cash for such shares on such repurchase date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the MEP or any related documentation, such
purchase price shall not be subject to reduction below the Fair Market Value for any reason. 
 Additionally, as of the date hereof, the
Company shall enter into a Consulting Agreement with you in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Pursuant to that Consulting Agreement, for one year following the Termination Date (the “Consulting Period”), the Company will pay you a
consulting fee of $600,000.00 for consulting services provided to the Company as requested from time to time by the Company. Said fee will be paid to you in a lump sum payment on or about May 1, 2007, but in no event sooner than six months and
one day after the Termination Date. Federal, State and local income tax and payroll tax of any kind shall not be withheld or paid by the Company. You will not be treated as an employee with respect to the consulting services performed hereunder for

 Mr. Richard L. Markee

Federal, State or local tax purposes. The Company will report the amounts paid to you on Form 1099 to the extent required under the Internal Revenue Code.
You agree to be solely responsible for and pay any applicable Federal, State and local taxes required by law. 
 As of the Termination Date,
you will be entitled to continuation of medical and dental benefits maintained by the Company at a level commensurate with the level at which senior executives of the Company participate. If you elect to receive such health benefits, for the first
18 months of such coverage, you shall pay the premium charged to former employees of the Company pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code (“the COBRA rate”). The Company agrees that during the first 12 months of such coverage, it will
reimburse you the difference between the COBRA rate and the rate charged to active senior executives of the Company. At the end of the 18 month period, should you so elect, you will be eligible to continue to age 65, to participate in a Company
provided health insurance plan that provides health coverage at a level commensurate with the level at which active senior executives of the Company participate. Should you elect such coverage, you will be charged the full amount of said coverage.
Following the Termination Date and during the entire period you are receiving continuation health coverage, you understand that the Company may amend or otherwise alter your health coverage to provide coverage (including reduced coverage) that is
commensurate with the coverage provided to active senior executives of the Company. 
 During the Consulting Period, the Company will
continue to maintain the life insurance coverage currently provided to you under the Toys “R” Us Inc. Split Dollar Plan. 
 Section 4 of that certain Special Bonus and Option Agreement, dated as of July 22, 2005, between you and the Company (the “Special Agreement”) provides that in any circumstance in which you become entitled to receive
severance or other similar payments from the Company (whether pursuant to an employment agreement, a retention agreement, or otherwise), such payment shall be reduced by an aggregate amount of $1,000,000. The Company hereby waives that off-set
provision of the Special Agreement in its entirety. 
 During the Consulting Period, you understand and agree to be bound by the non- compete
provisions of the Separation and Release Agreement, attached hereto, as well as Sections 11(a)-(c), Section 11(f) and Section 13(e) of the Retention Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company fails to pay the consulting fee
when due hereunder, the non-compete provisions of the Separation and Release Agreement shall become null and void as of date such payment should have been made. 
 The Company agrees to promptly reimburse you the actual legal fees incurred by you in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the related documentation in an amount not to exceed $5,000 in the aggregate.

 Mr. Richard L. Markee 
 October 13, 2006 
  

 You understand and agree that other than the compensation and benefits provided for in this letter
and the Consulting Agreement, all other compensation and benefits you currently enjoy will cease as of the Termination Date. 
 In addition,
this letter serves as confirmation that, effective on the Termination Date, you hereby resign as an officer and/or director of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates on which you serve as an officer and director, including Toys
“R” Us – Japan, Ltd. You further agree to sign appropriate letters of resignation, to the extent requested by us. 
 Rick, if
you have questions about this letter, please let me know.

October     , 2006 (the “Letter Agreement”), the Company has agreed to provide certain payments to the Executive to which he is not otherwise entitled. 
 3. In consideration of the payments provided in the Letter Agreement, the sufficiency of which the Executive hereby acknowledges, the Executive, on
behalf of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, executors and assigns, hereby releases and forever discharges the Company and its members, parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, any and all current and former directors, officers,
employees, agents, and contractors and their heirs and assigns, and any and all employee pension benefit or welfare benefit plans of the Company, including current and former trustees and administrators of such employee pension benefit and welfare
benefit plans, from all claims, charges, or demands, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, which may have existed or which may now exist from the beginning of time to the date of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any claims the
Executive may have arising from or relating to the Executive’s employment or termination from employment with the Company, including a release of any rights or claims the Executive may have under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
