      <description>&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyStart:b5d6fce4-e4fb-4402-94f3-8c9c7b224c38] --&gt;&lt;div class='jive-rendered-content'&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.travelmuse.com/about/press-releases/travelmuse-pr-10-01-2008.htm"&gt;Russ Lemelin&lt;/a&gt; has been an advisor to TravelMuse for more than six months. As CFO, he brings a wealth of experience in the online travel space to the company. He was one of the earliest employees at SideStep, Inc., where he held the role of CFO and interim CEO. Russ spent six years at SideStep, during which time he oversaw the company&amp;rsquo;s revenue grow from $0 to $30 million per year. SideStep was acquired by Kayak in December 2007 for approximately $200 million. Prior to SideStep, Russ led corporate development at Komag, Inc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Russ lives with his wife and three girls in Danville, Calif. He enjoys traveling to &lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.travelmuse.com/destinations/US/HI/00-hawaii"&gt;Hawaii&lt;/a&gt;, spending time with the family and watching classic western movies. Russ is a self-proclaimed, die-hard Oakland Raiders fan and was born and raised in Northern California.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.travelmuse.com/community/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/38-1157-1115/RussLemelinLR.jpg"&gt;&lt;img height="485" src="http://www.travelmuse.com/community/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/38-1157-1115/400-485/RussLemelinLR.jpg" width="400"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:b5d6fce4-e4fb-4402-94f3-8c9c7b224c38] --&gt;</description>
