It unscrews. Try some gloves for a better grip or use some pliers.

Sorry, you've failed the Exige ownership test...please turn in your keys. 
As Shinoo stated, it should unscrew like a regular bolt. Left or Counterclockwise to get it removed. Someone may have screwed it too hard to the right or clockwise, thereby stripping the threads. If it just spins, then that is the case and you may have to get slightly medieval on it.

Mine doesn't even turn - it's to the point where if I try any harder, I'll strip the plastic head. I put enough pressure on it that the car will roll back if I don't have the e-brake on. I tried this about 2 weeks ago when I first took delivery of the car and when I first looked at it, thought it would be a piece of cake.
Tow hook
The tow hook is made of ordinary steel and is full of rust. This is the reason why the plastig screw is stuck.
My hook started to rust all over and I could't remove the plastic screw (it got destroyd).
I removet the tow hook completly. If I need to tow the car I'll use one of the wishbones.
