period, then the determination of the other appraisers shall be final and binding upon the parties. The role of the third appraiser shall be to select which of the two proposed resolutions most closely approximates his or her determination of Fair
Market Rental. The third appraiser shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any modification of either of the two proposed resolutions. The resolution he or she chooses as that most closely approximating his or her determination of the Fair
Market Rental shall constitute the decision of the appraisers and shall be final and binding upon the parties. 
  
 (d) In the event of a failure, refusal or inability of any appraiser to act, his or her successor shall be appointed by him or her, but
in the case of the third appraiser, his or her successor shall be appointed in the same manner as that set forth herein with respect to the appointment of the original third appraiser. The appraisers shall attempt to decide the issue within ten (10)
business days after the appointment of the third appraiser. Any decision in which the appraiser appointed by Lessor and the appraiser appointed by Lessee concur shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties.

which event the prepaid Base Rent and additional rent, if any, shall be prorated and returned to Lessee as of the date of such termination. 
  
 (b) In the event any governmental or other duly constituted public or quasi-public authority shall so give official notice of its decision
to take over permanently the Premises in its entirety, then this Lease shall terminate upon the date Lessee shall be deprived of possession of the Premises on account of such taking, without further obligation, except with respect to rental
obligations and liabilities of Lessee under this Lease which have arisen with respect to the Premises prior to such date. 
  
 (c) In the event a portion of the Premises is taken by condemnation which, in Lessee’s good faith business judgment, renders the
Premises remaining unsuitable for the conduct of Lessee’s business or which adversely affects the means of access thereto, or which adversely diminishes the parking portion of the Premises, then Lessee shall also have the right and option upon
not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice to terminate this Lease at any time after such governmental or duly constituted public authority shall have elected to take over any part of said Premises under condemnation proceedings or
otherwise; but Lessee’s right to recover damages from the person or body so taking said Premises under condemnation proceedings or otherwise shall not in any way be affected thereby. The institution of the suit or other proceedings for the
taking over of said Premises shall constitute an election by such authority irrespective of when possession of the Premises is to be taken. 
  
 (d) If this Lease is not terminated due to a partial taking, then as of the date of the vesting of title in the condemnor, the Base Rent
and additional rent herein shall be reduced in proportion that the value of the Premises taken bears to the value of the entire Premises immediately prior to said partial taking, and the Lessor shall repair and restore the Premises remaining as near

additional rent default within ten (10) days following Lessee’s receipt of such notice or other default within thirty (30) days after Lessee’s
receipt of such notice (or if such other default(s) is of such a nature that it cannot be completely cured within such period, if Lessee does not commence such curing within such thirty (30) days and thereafter proceed with reasonable diligence to
cure such default), then Lessor may terminate this Lease on not less than two (2) days’ prior written notice to Lessee, in the case of a non monetary default and no additional notice in the case of a monetary default, and on the date specified
in said notice, Lessee’s right to the possession of the Premises shall cease. Lessor may lawfully re-enter the Premises or any part thereof, and repossess the same as of the former estate of Lessor and expel Lessee and those claiming under and
through it and remove its effects, without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to any remedies which might otherwise be used for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenant, and upon entry as aforesaid this Lease
shall terminate, and Lessee covenants that in case of such termination it will indemnify Lessor against any and all loss of rent which Lessor shall have incurred by reason of such default on the part of Lessee. 
  
 17. CURING DEFAULTS: If either party is required to perform or comply with
any agreement or provision hereof and shall fail to do so within the time provided therefor (or if no time is provided therefor then within thirty (30) days after written demand for compliance shall have been received by any party hereto from the
other unless such default shall be of such nature that same cannot be completely cured within such thirty (30) day period but the curing thereof has been commenced within the said thirty (30) day period and shall thereafter be continued with
reasonable diligence), then in each such case, upon the expiration of the time provided in this article for the performance or compliance therewith or for the curing of same, the party demanding compliance may perform and comply therewith for the
account and at the expense of the party failing to do so; and the party failing to do so immediately upon receipt of an itemized invoice of the cost and expense thereof, agrees to promptly pay the reasonable cost and expense incurred by the other
party hereto, with interest at the rate often (10%) percent per annum to the date payment is received. Should Lessee be the party failing to make such payment, the cost and expense thereof shall be charged to Lessee as additional rent, which shall
be paid by the Lessee on the next rent payment date following the date of receipt by Lessee of such invoice, and in the event such additional rent shall not be paid when due, it may be collected in the same manner as is herein provided for the
collection of rent. Should Lessor be the party failing to make such payment to Lessee then Lessee, without impairing or affecting any other of its rights, shall have the right to withhold payment of all Base Rent, and additional rent, if any, until
Lessee has recouped all such costs and expenses, with interest as aforesaid, to the date full payment is received. In any such case if Lessor is in default hereunder, Lessee, without impairing or affecting any other rights it may have for damages or
otherwise, shall have the right to cancel and terminate this Lease by giving written notice of Lessee’s election to do so; and upon giving such notice the life of this Lease shall cease and come to an end as of the date set forth in said
notice, with the same force and effect as if the date set forth were the date originally fixed for the termination of the term and of any extended term thereof. In computing the time within which either party is required to comply with any covenant,
agreement or provision of this Lease, there shall be excluded therefrom periods of reasonable delay on account of war, “Acts of God” and other unavoidable delays. 
  
 18. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED 
  
 19. TRADE FIXTURES: It is expressly understood and agreed that any and all pre-fabricated or portable buildings, signs, trade fixtures, machinery and
equipment erected or installed at Lessee’s expense, whether or not attached to the Premises, shall remain the property of the Lessee and may be removed by Lessee at or before the expiration of the life of this Lease, including the period of any
“holding over”; 

  

 10 

 
provided Lessee repairs all damages caused by any such removal. Any such property not removed prior to the end of the term of this Lease shall become the
property of Lessor unless Lessor, at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the life of this Lease gives written notice to Lessee requiring the removal thereof; in which event Lessee agrees to remove same before this Lease expires and to repair
all damages caused by such removal. 
  
 20. SUBLET / ASSIGNMENT:
Lessee may not assign this Lease or sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof, to any person, firm, association, co-partnership or corporation without the consent of Lessor thereto, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Lessor’s failure
to approve or disapprove any sublet or assignment request by Lessee within five (5) business days following Lessor’s receipt of such request shall be deemed approval thereof. In the event of such assignment or subletting, Lessee shall remain
liable for the performance of the terms and conditions hereof. Lessee may permit all, or any portion of the Premises, to be used and occupied by any division of Lessee, any subsidiary corporation, parent or affiliated corporation without same being
deemed a sublet or assignment of this Lease. 
  
 21. SIGNAGE:
Lessee may place any signs on or about the Premises or the Building, provided (i) Lessee shall conform with all applicable zoning ordinances regarding signage; and (ii) Lessor shall have approved such signage (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). 
  
 22. HEAT: Lessor shall, at Lessor’s
own cost and expense, provide the demised Premises with heating equipment in first class condition and repair and suitable for conveniently and economically heating the office space to Lessee’s reasonable satisfaction. The cost of heating the
Premises shall be paid by Lessee. 
  
 23. LIGHT: Lessor shall, at
Lessor’s own cost and expense, provide the necessary electric wiring and fixtures for properly lighting and air conditioning the demised Premises with a suitable meter and electric switches installed. All current for lighting and air
conditioning shall be provided at the cost and expense of Lessee. 
  
 24. WATER: All charges for water used or consumed by Lessee on the Premises shall be paid by Lessee. Lessor, at its sole expense, shall supply hot water heaters, tanks and water meters, as required by Lessee. 
  
 25. HOLDING OVER: Any “holding over” by Lessee after the expiration
of the term of this Lease shall be construed as a month-to-month extension of the life of this Lease on identical terms and conditions as contained herein (including rent) and such tenancy may be terminated by either party upon thirty (30)
days’ written notice given to the other party. 
  
 26.
INSURANCE: (a) Lessor agrees, at its sole cost, to procure and maintain during the initial term of this Lease and any Extension Term, policies of fire insurance for the insurable replacement cost of all buildings and improvements demised hereunder
(including the Building), excluding excavations and foundations, with extended coverage endorsement and to include Lessee as an “additional insured”. Said policies shall be adjusted exclusively with Lessor and losses payable thereunder
shall be paid solely to Lessor or to the mortgagee, if any, as their respective interests may appear; it being expressly intended that such insurance companies be not required, in any event, to make their checks payable to Lessee as one of the
payees. 
  

 11 

 (b) Lessor and Lessee shall, at their sole respective costs, procure and maintain, during
the initial term of this Lease and any Extension Term, commercial general liability insurance policies covering claims for personal and bodily injury, and property damage occurring on, in or about the Premises and the Building with limits of at
least $1 million combined limit per occurrence. 
  
 27.
INDEMNIFICATION: Lessor and Lessee shall each indemnify and save harmless the other and their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliates from and against any suits, liabilities, damages, penalties, claims and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) which may be imposed upon or incurred by either of them arising out of the failure of Lessor or Lessee (as the case may be) to perform its respective obligations under this Lease or caused by the negligence or willful
misconduct of either Lessor or Lessee (as the case may be) or their respective agents or employees. When the claim is caused by the joint negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee and Lessor (or their respective agents or employees), the duty to
indemnify and save harmless shall be in proportion to each party’s allocable share of the joint negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnity shall survive expiration or termination of this Lease. 
  
 28. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION: Lessor and Lessee each hereby waive any and all
rights of recovery against each other relating to property damage and bodily injury arising out of or in connection with the Lease, the Premises and the Building, whether or not such loss or damage is insured. Lessor and Lessee each agree to obtain
an endorsement to their respective insurance policies permitting such waiver of subrogation and to pay the amount of any additional premium charged for such endorsement. 
  
 29. ENVIRONMENTAL: (a) Lessor represents and warrants to Lessee that the following statements are accurate as of the date
hereof and will remain accurate as of the Commencement Date (i) the Premises are in full compliance with Environmental Laws; (ii) there has not been any Release of Hazardous Materials at the Premises or at the Park; (iii) there are no Hazardous
Materials stored, located or present in, on or upon the Premises or the Park; (iv) neither the Premises nor the Park is subject to any Environmental Action; and (v) neither the Premises, the Park nor any personal property located thereon is subject
to any Environmental Liens. 
  
 (b) Lessee shall
have the right to conduct its own environmental site assessment (“ESA”) of the Premises to evaluate the environmental conditions of the Premises (the “Environmental Inspection Period”). If the ESA discloses environmental
conditions which Lessee determines are unacceptable, then Lessor shall correct or remediate the environmental conditions and obtains a no-further action letter (“NFA”) or its equivalent from the appropriate governmental environmental
agency indicating that no further remedial actions are required or recommended. Nothing contained herein (including, without limitation, Lessee’s failure to conduct an ESA or raise any issue pertaining to environmental matters) shall in any way
constitute a waiver of, diminish or limit the provisions of Lessor’s indemnities in subsection (d) below. 
  
 (c) Lessee hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Lessor from and against any Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising
out of: (i) any Releases of Hazardous Materials at or from the Premises caused by Lessee’s operations during the term of the Lease; and (ii) any violations of Environmental Laws that are caused by Lessee’s operations during the term of the
Lease. This indemnity shall survive termination of this Lease. 
  
 (d) Lessor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Lessee from and against any Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising out of (i) any Releases of Hazardous Materials that occurred prior to the
commencement date of this Lease; (ii) any violations of Environmental Laws or Environmental 

  

 12 

 
Actions that are attributable to the Lessor’s acts or omissions; and (iii) any breach of any warranty or representation or covenant regarding
environmental matters made by Lessor; and (iv) any Releases or threatened Releases of Hazardous Materials caused by Lessor. This indemnity shall survive expiration or termination of this Lease. 
  
 (e) Lessor releases Lessee from any liability arising out of
Releases of Hazardous Materials in, on, about, or from the Park and the Premises caused by parties other than Lessee, or its employees, guests, agents or invitees.

Lessee non-exclusive access to, and ingress and egress over, the Road for all purposes of pedestrian and vehicular traffic during the term of this Lease. 
  
 42. PARK COVENANTS: It is anticipated that Lessor may prepare and record restrictive covenants affecting the Park. To the extent required by law or as

if any) will be paid semi-annually by Borrower to Lender, with the first installment of interest due on July 1, 2004 and each subsequent interest payment due on the six month anniversary of such date (unless such date is not a business day in which
case the payment is due on the next succeeding business day) until the Principal Amount is paid in full. Any amounts payable under this Section 3(d) are subject to any deductions or withholdings for or on account of any tax, as may be required by
law. 
  
 4. Prepayments. Subject to Section 5 below,
Borrower shall be entitled upon reasonable (and, in any event, not less than 3 working days’) advance notice to Lender to prepay the whole or part of the Loan together with accrued but unpaid interest on the amount prepaid. Any amount so
prepaid may not be re-borrowed hereunder. 
  
 5. Method of
Payment. All sums payable by Borrower hereunder, whether of principal or interest or otherwise, shall be paid in full, clear of and, except as set forth in Section 3(d), without any deduction for, or on account of any present or future income or
other taxes, levies, imposts, duties or other charges whatsoever. Subject to the foregoing, Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender against any tax, levy, impost, duty or other charges (other than on Lender’s overall net income) which may be
assessed against Lender or claimed or demanded from Lender in respect of the Loan and/or its repayment and against any costs, charges, expenses or liability arising out of or in respect of such assessment, claim or demand. Any payments are to be
made in immediately available funds in British Pounds by wire transfer to such account as Lender shall designate to Borrower in writing. 
  
 6. Covenants. Borrower covenants so long as any sum remains payable under this Agreement that it will: 
  
 (a) promptly advise Lender in writing upon becoming aware of

  
 (i) any Event of Default (as defined in
Section 7 below), any event or circumstance which with the passage of time will reasonably become an Event of Default or an event which is reasonably likely to become an Event of Default; and 
  

 2 

 (ii) any material adverse factor which has arisen or is substantially likely to arise
which is reasonably likely to inhibit the Borrower in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement; and 
  
 (b) maintain its corporate existence and qualification to transact business at all times and continue to be duly organized under the laws
where it is incorporated; and 
  
 (c) comply at
all times with all requirements of law applicable to it, its business or any of its assets. 
  
 7. Default. If at any time and for any reason, whether within or beyond the control of Borrower, any of the following events occurs (each an “Event of Default”): 
  
 (a) Borrower commits or permits any breach of any of the
provisions of this Agreement, including (but not limited to) in the event Borrower fails to pay Lender any principal, interest or other sum stipulated herein when the same shall become due and payable, and such breach is not cured within five (5)
days (in case of a payment default) or ten (10) days (in case of any other breach, if capable of being remedied); 
  
 (b) Borrower is declared bankrupt or suspends its payments to creditors (other than in relation to a bona fide dispute with them) or
enters into a composition agreement or equivalent; 
  
 (c) any material assets of Borrower are attached by a creditor; 
  
 (d) Borrower goes into liquidation or is dissolved or equivalent; 
  
 (e) Borrower ceases, or threatens to cease to carry on business; 
  
 (f) Borrower ceases to pay its debts other than for a valid business reason or becomes unable to pay its
debts; 
  
 (g) an event of default occurs under
any document relating to any other financial indebtedness of Borrower under which there is an aggregate amount outstanding in excess of US$500,000; or 
  
 (h) any other financial indebtedness of Borrower with an aggregate amount outstanding in excess of US$500,000 becomes prematurely due and
payable or is placed on demand as a result of an event of default under any document relating to any other material financial indebtedness of Borrower; 
  
 then, at any time (whether or not any such event is continuing) Lender may by written notice to Borrower with a copy to TRX, declare the Loan and all other sums
outstanding or payable under 

  

 3 

 
this Agreement to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable by Borrower and no amounts shall subsequently
be available for borrowing hereunder. 
  
 8. Set-off. In
the event that any payments of interest or principal become due and payable to Lender at a time when there is a bona fide claim (ie a disputed or overdue payment as opposed to a sum owing in the normal course) against Lender by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall be entitled to pay any such interest or principal due into a joint interest-bearing deposit account in the joint names of Lender’s solicitors and the Borrower’s solicitors (the “Escrow Account”) pending resolution
of such claim in accordance with the applicable dispute resolution procedure (if any). Upon resolution of such claim the Borrower shall be entitled to payment from the Escrow Account of an amount which does not exceed the amount due to it from the
Lender in relation to the resolved claim, with the balance standing to the credit of the Escrow Account being payable to the Lender. Interest accrued in the Escrow Account shall follow capital. This Section is without prejudice to the Lender’s
right to accrue and receive interest on the outstanding principal of the Loan. 
  
 9. Acceleration. Lender may by written notice to Borrower with a copy to TRX, declare the Loan and all other sums outstanding or payable under this Agreement to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the
same shall immediately become due and payable by Borrower and no amounts shall subsequently be available for borrowing hereunder, in the following circumstances: 
  
 (a) immediately prior to an initial public offering in any jurisdiction of any of the common stock of TRX,
Inc. and/or WTT and/or Borrower; or 
  
 (b) BCD
Technology S.A. or another company owned or controlled by BCD Technology S.A. cease to hold the majority of the voting rights in TRX; or 
  
 (c) TRX directly or indirectly through one or more subsidiaries or affiliates, ceases to hold the majority of the voting rights in the
Borrower. 
  
 10. Benefit of Agreement and Variation. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each party hereto and its successors and assigns. However, save for security granted to lenders of the Lender, the parties hereto shall not be entitled to assign or otherwise transfer their
respective rights, benefits or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that Borrower may (without prejudice to TRX’s
unconditional guarantee of the Loan) assign this Agreement to TRX or one of its subsidiaries. No variation of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto. 
  
 11. Notices. Any notice or other communication required to be given
under this Agreement or in connection with the matters contemplated by it shall, except where otherwise specifically provided, be in writing in the English language and shall be addressed as provided in this clause and may be: 
  
 (a) personally delivered, in which case it shall be deemed
to have been given upon delivery at the relevant address; or 
  

 4
