Note 1—Background

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Global" when including its subsidiaries and VIEs and "Hertz Holdings" when excluding its subsidiaries and VIEs) was incorporated in Delaware in 2015 to serve as the top-level holding company for Rental Car Intermediate Holdings, LLC, which wholly owns The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz" and interchangeably with Hertz Global, the "Company"), Hertz Global's primary operating company. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967 and is a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the vehicle rental and leasing business since 1918. On May 22, 2020, as a result of the impact from the COVID-19 global pandemic, Hertz Global, Hertz and certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries in the U.S. and Canada (the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the "Chapter 11 Cases") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). On June 10, 2021, a plan of reorganization (the "Plan of Reorganization") was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and on June 30, 2021, the Plan of Reorganization became effective and the Debtors emerged from Chapter 11.

Hertz operates its vehicle rental business globally primarily through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from company-owned, licensee and franchisee locations in the United States ("U.S."), Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and New Zealand. The Company also sells vehicles through Hertz Car Sales and operates the Firefly vehicle rental brand and Hertz 24/7 car sharing business in international markets. As disclosed in Note 3, "Divestitures," on March 30, 2021 the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of its Donlen subsidiary (the "Donlen Sale"), a business which provided vehicle leasing and fleet management services.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022 of Hertz Global and Hertz. Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes, therefore, disclosures that relate to activities of Hertz also apply to Hertz Global. In the sections that combine disclosure of Hertz Global and Hertz, this report refers to actions as being actions of the Company, or Hertz Global, which is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and Hertz Global operates the business through Hertz. When appropriate, Hertz Global and Hertz are named specifically for their individual disclosures and any significant differences between the operations and results of Hertz Global and Hertz are separately disclosed and explained.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The Company's vehicle rental operations are typically a seasonal business, with decreased levels of business in the winter months and heightened activity during the spring and summer months for the majority of countries where the Company generates revenues.

Certain charges related to the Chapter 11 Cases were recorded as reorganization items, net in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 pursuant to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852, Reorganizations. See Note 15, "Reorganization Items, Net," for additional information.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

The December 31, 2021 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data is derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The information included in this

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global, its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries and its VIEs, as applicable. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz, its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries and its VIEs, as applicable. The Company consolidates a VIE when it is deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary of the joint venture. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 3—Divestitures

Donlen Sale

On March 30, 2021, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of its Donlen subsidiary. The proceeds from the sale were subject to certain post-closing adjustments in the second quarter of 2021 based on the level of assumed indebtedness, working capital and fleet equity. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain in its corporate operations of $8 million and $400 million, net of the impact of foreign currency adjustments, respectively, based on the difference in cash proceeds received of $891 million and $543 million net book value of assets sold plus a $53 million receivable in connection with the sale where cash proceeds were received in September 2021.

Additionally, the Hertz Canadian Securitization was amended to extend the maturity of the aggregate maximum borrowings of CAD$350 million to June 2024.

Borrowing Capacity and Availability

Borrowing capacity and availability comes from the Company's revolving credit facilities, which are a combination of variable funding asset-backed securitization facilities, cash-flow based revolving credit facilities, asset-based revolving credit facilities and the First Lien RCF. Creditors under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility have a claim on a specific pool of assets as collateral. With respect to each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to the amount of debt it can borrow given a certain pool of assets as the borrowing base.

The Company refers to "Remaining Capacity" as the maximum principal amount of debt permitted to be outstanding under the respective facility (i.e., with respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the amount of debt the Company could borrow assuming it possessed sufficient assets as collateral) less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility and, in the case of the First Lien RCF, less any issued standby letters of credit. With respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" as the lower of Remaining Capacity or the borrowing base less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility (i.e., the amount of debt that can be borrowed given the collateral possessed at such time).

As of June 30, 2022, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $701 million comprised primarily of $245 million issued under the term loan "C" facility (the "Term C Loan") and $441 million issued under the First Lien RCF. As of June 30, 2022, no capacity remains to issue letters of credit under the Term C Loan. Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to support the Company's insurance programs and to provide credit enhancement for the Company's asset-backed securitization facilities, as well as to support the Company's vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds. As of June 30, 2022, none of the issued letters of credit have been drawn upon.

Pledges Related to Vehicle Financing

Substantially all of the Company's revenue earning vehicles and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities or are encumbered in favor of the lenders under the various credit facilities, other secured financings or asset-backed securities programs. None of the value of such assets (including the assets owned by Hertz Vehicle Financing III LLC and various other domestic and international subsidiaries that facilitate the Company's international securitizations) will be available to satisfy the claims of unsecured creditors unless the secured creditors are paid in full.

The Company has a 25% ownership interest in IFF No. 2, whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend under the European ABS in various currencies subject to borrowing bases comprised of revenue earning vehicles and related assets of certain of Hertz International, Ltd.'s subsidiaries. IFF No. 2 is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary; therefore, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of IFF No. 2 are included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, IFF No. 2 had total assets of $838 million and $734 million, respectively, comprised primarily of intercompany receivables, and total liabilities of $837 million and $733 million, respectively, comprised primarily of debt.

Covenant Compliance

The First Lien RCF credit agreement (the "First Lien Credit Agreement") requires Hertz to comply with the following financial covenant: a First Lien Ratio of less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 in the first and last quarters of the calendar year and 3.50 to 1.00 in the second and third quarters of the calendar year. This financial covenant was effective beginning in the third quarter of 2021. As of June 30, 2022, Hertz was in compliance with the First Lien Ratio.

In addition to the financial covenant, the First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants including, among other things, the delivery of quarterly and annual financial statements and compliance certificates, and covenants related to conduct of business, maintenance of property and insurance, compliance with environmental laws and the granting of security interest for the benefit of the secured parties under that agreement on after-acquired real property, fixtures and future subsidiaries. The First Lien Credit Agreement also contains customary negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on the incurrence of liens, indebtedness, asset dispositions and restricted payments. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the First Lien Credit Agreement.

Note 7—Income Tax (Provision) Benefit

Hertz Global

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Hertz Global recorded a tax provision of $179 million which resulted in an effective tax rate of 16%. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, Hertz Global recorded a tax benefit of $46 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 22%.

The change in tax in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021 is driven by improvements in Hertz Global’s financial performance, as well as the non-taxable change in fair value of the Public Warrants in 2022, non-deductible bankruptcy costs incurred in 2021 and tax benefits associated with the restructuring in Europe recognized in 2021.

For the first half of 2022, Hertz Global recorded a tax provision of $309 million which resulted in an effective tax rate of 18%. For the first half of 2021, Hertz Global recorded a tax expense of $33 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 63%.

The change in tax in the first half of 2022 compared to 2021 is driven by improvements in Hertz Global’s financial performance, as well as the non-taxable change in fair value of the Public Warrants in 2022, non-deductible bankruptcy costs incurred in 2021 and tax benefits associated with the restructuring in Europe recognized in 2021.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company has approximately $670 million gross, or $141 million U.S. federal tax effected, of capital loss carryforward relating to a European restructuring for which a full valuation allowance is recorded. The Company filed a request for a pre-filing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in December 2021, to determine whether the capital loss on the European restructuring qualifies as an ordinary loss. In May of 2022, the IRS began its review of the character of the loss on the European restructuring. A favorable outcome from this proceeding could result in a full or partial release of the valuation allowance.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Hertz recorded a tax provision of $178 million which resulted in an effective tax rate of 27%. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $46 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 90%.

The change in tax in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021 is driven by improvements in Hertz’s financial performance, as well as non-deductible bankruptcy costs incurred in 2021 and tax benefits associated with the restructuring in Europe recognized in 2021.

For the first half of 2022, Hertz recorded a tax provision of $308 million which resulted in an effective tax rate of 26%. For the first half of 2021, the Company recorded a tax provision of $33 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 15%.

The change in tax in the first half of 2022 compared to 2021 is driven by improvements in Hertz’s financial performance, as well as non-deductible bankruptcy costs incurred in the first half of 2021 and tax benefits associated with the restructuring in Europe recognized in the first half of 2021.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company has approximately $670 million gross, or $141 million U.S. federal tax effected, of capital loss carryforward relating to a European restructuring for which a full valuation allowance is recorded. The Company filed a request for a pre-filing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in December 2021, to determine whether the capital loss on the European restructuring qualifies as an ordinary loss. In May 2022, the IRS began its review of the character of the loss on the European restructuring. A favorable outcome from this proceeding could result in a full or partial release of the valuation allowance.

Hertz Global funded the share repurchases with available cash and dividend distributions from Hertz.

Computation of Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share has been computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share has been computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including Public Warrants, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding included the dilutive impact of Public Warrants where the Company assumed share settlement of the Public Warrants as of the beginning of the reporting period. Additionally, the Company removes the change in fair value of Public Warrants when computing diluted earnings (loss) per common share, when the impact of Public Warrants is dilutive.

Note 10—Financial Instruments

The Company employs established risk management policies and procedures, and, under the terms of our ABS facilities, may be required to enter into interest rate derivatives, which seek to reduce the Company’s commercial risk exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates. Although the instruments utilized involve varying degrees of credit, market and interest risk, the Company contracts with multiple counterparties to mitigate concentrations of risk and the counterparties to the agreements are expected to perform fully under the terms of the agreements. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk, including lenders, on a regular basis, but cannot be certain that all risks will be discerned or that its risk management policies and procedures will always be effective. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Company’s International Swaps and Derivatives

None of the Company's financial instruments have been designated as hedging instruments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses a combination of interest rate caps and swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and to manage its mix of floating and fixed-rate debt.

Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Company uses foreign currency exchange rate derivative financial instruments to manage its currency exposure resulting from intercompany transactions and other cross currency obligations.

The amounts recognized in income for derivative instruments were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
The Company's foreign currency forward contracts and certain interest rate instruments are subject to enforceable master netting agreements with their counterparties. The Company does not offset such derivative assets and liabilities in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the potential effect of the Company’s use of the master netting arrangements is not material.

Note 11—Fair Value Measurements

Under U.S. GAAP, entities are allowed to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any of its assets or liabilities that meet the criteria for this option. Irrespective of the fair value option previously described, U.S. GAAP requires certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities of the Company to be measured on either a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis.

Note 12—Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

Legal Proceedings

Self-Insured Liabilities

The Company is currently a defendant in numerous actions and has received numerous claims on which actions have not yet commenced for self-insured liabilities arising from the operation of motor vehicles rented from the Company. The obligation for self-insured liabilities on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles, as stated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, represents an estimate for both reported accident claims not yet paid and claims incurred but not yet reported. The related liabilities are recorded on an undiscounted basis and are based on rental volume and actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company's liability recorded for self-insured liabilities is $470 million and $463 million, respectively. The Company believes that its analysis is based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions. The liability is subject to significant uncertainties. The adequacy of the liability is regularly monitored based on evolving accident claim history and insurance related legislation changes. If the Company's estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results.

Loss Contingencies

From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings, typically involving operational issues common to the vehicle rental business. The Company has summarized below the material legal proceedings to which the Company was a party during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or the period after June 30, 2022, but before the filing of this Quarterly Report.

Make-Whole and Post-Petition Interest Claims - On July 1, 2021, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., in its capacity as indenture trustee of (1) 6.250% Unsecured Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"), (2) 5.500% Unsecured Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes"), (3) 7.125% Unsecured Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), and (4) 6.000% Unsecured Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes") issued by The Hertz Corporation (collectively, the “Notes”), filed a complaint (the “Complaint”) against The Hertz Corporation and multiple direct and indirect subsidiaries thereof (collectively referred to in this summary as “Defendants”). The filing of the Complaint initiated the adversary proceeding captioned Wells Fargo Bank, National Association v. The Hertz Corporation, et al. pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Adv. Pro. No. 21-50995 (MFW). The Complaint seeks a declaratory judgment that the holders of the Unsecured Notes are entitled to payment of certain redemption premiums and post-petition interest that they assert total $271,684,720 plus interest at the contractual default rate or, in the alternative, are entitled to payment of post-petition interest at a contractual rate that they assert totals $124,512,653 plus interest. On August 2, 2021, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss Wells Fargo's claims. On December 22, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court dismissed Wells Fargo’s claims with respect to (i) the redemption premium allegedly owed on the 2022 and 2024 Notes and (ii) post-petition interest at the contract rate. Wells Fargo’s claims for a redemption premium with respect to the 2026 and 2028 Senior Notes remain. Note holders that elected to participate in the rights offering held in June 2021 (the "2021 Rights Offering") waived their right to collect on the redemption premium. Therefore, since some of the 2026 and 2028 note holders elected to participate in the 2021 Rights Offering, the total amount which may be owed with respect to the asserted redemption premium for those series of notes will be reduced. On February 25, 2022, the Defendants answered the Complaint. The parties intend to submit cross-motions for summary judgment and have agreed to a schedule with respect to those motions. The Defendants intend to

vigorously defend against the claims in this matter. The Company cannot predict the outcome or timing of this litigation.

Claims Relating to Alleged False Arrests - As a large company, we are subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, inquiries, and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. One series of claims involves claimants seeking monetary damages from the Company in the Bankruptcy Court and Delaware Superior Court in connection with allegations that police detained or arrested them in error after the Company reported their rental cars as stolen. These claims arise from actions allegedly taken by the Company prior to emergence from its bankruptcy reorganization. The overwhelming majority of these cases involve vehicles that were not returned to the Company within a reasonable time period following their contracted return date. These claims have been the subject of press coverage and the Company has received inquiries on the matter from certain elected officials. The Company will continue to defend itself as appropriate and has established policies to help ensure proper treatment of its customers as well as to prosecute those involved in the theft of services or assets of the Company. The Company has made settlement offers to certain claimants, and may continue to do so from time to time in the future. We currently believe that the eventual outcome of these claims will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, in May 2022, the Company filed a complaint against several of its insurers seeking a determination of its rights under its commercial general liability, and directors and officers liability, insurance policies for these alleged claims in a declaratory judgment action pending in Delaware Superior Court, captioned Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. et al. v. ACE American Insurance Co. et al., C.A. No. N22C-05-130 MMJ (CCLD).

The Company has established reserves for matters where the Company believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Other than the aggregate reserve established for claims for self-insured liabilities, none of those reserves are material. For matters where the Company has not established a reserve, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time, or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. These matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

Other Proceedings

Litigation Against Former Executives - The Company filed litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against former executives Mark Frissora, Elyse Douglas and John Jefferey Zimmerman on March 25, 2019, and in state court in Florida against former executive Scott Sider on March 28, 2019. The complaints predominantly allege breach of contract and seek repayment of incentive-based compensation received by the defendants in connection with restatements included in the former Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Old Hertz Holdings") Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and related accounting for prior periods. The Company is also seeking recovery for the costs of an SEC investigation that resulted in an administrative order on December 31, 2018 with respect to events generally involving the restatements included in Old Hertz Holdings Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and other damages resulting from the necessity of the restatements. The Company is pursuing these legal proceedings in accordance with its clawback policy and contractual rights. In October 2019, the Company entered into a confidential Settlement Agreement with Elyse Douglas. In September and October 2020, the judge in the New Jersey action entered orders requiring the remaining parties and applicable insurers to attend and participate in mediation. The attorneys in the Florida action voluntarily agreed to participate in the same mediation which was held on November 30, 2020. The mediation was unsuccessful, but settlement discussions continued and, on April 14, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court approved a Settlement Agreement between the Company and Scott Sider. The Florida action is now closed. On December 29, 2021, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Jeff Zimmerman, leaving Mark Frissora as the sole remaining defendant in this litigation. Fact and expert discovery have now been completed in the New Jersey action with competing dispositive motions due by September 30, 2022. Pursuant to the agreements governing the separation of Herc Holdings Inc. from Hertz Global

that occurred on June 30, 2016, Herc Holdings Inc. is entitled to 15% of the net proceeds of any repayment or recovery from these cases.

Indemnification Obligations

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has executed contracts involving indemnification obligations customary in the rental car industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction such as the sale of a business. These indemnification obligations might include claims relating to the following: environmental matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; customer, supplier and other commercial contractual relationships and financial matters. Specifically, the Company has indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which the Company may be held responsible could be substantial. In addition, Hertz entered into customary indemnification agreements with Hertz Holdings and certain of the Company's stockholders and their affiliates pursuant to which Hertz Holdings and Hertz will indemnify those entities and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives and controlling persons, against certain liabilities arising out of performance of a consulting agreement with Hertz Holdings and each of such entities and certain other claims and liabilities, including liabilities arising out of financing arrangements or securities offerings. The Company has entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain of its officers. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third-party claim. In connection with the separation of the rental car business from the equipment rental business in 2016, the Company executed an agreement with Herc Holdings Inc. that contains mutual indemnification clauses and a customary indemnification provision with respect to liability arising out of or resulting from assumed legal matters. The Company regularly evaluates the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and has accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable.

Note 13—Related Party Transactions

Transactions and Agreements between Hertz Holdings and Hertz

In May 2021, upon expiration of a loan originated in May 2020 between Hertz Holdings and Hertz, Hertz entered into a new master loan agreement with Hertz Holdings for a facility size of $25 million with an expiration in May 2022 (the "2021 Master Loan"). The interest rate was based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate plus a margin. The 2021 Master Loan expired according to its terms and accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, there is no outstanding balance under the 2021 Master Loan.

767 Auto Leasing LLC

In January 2018, Hertz entered into a Master Motor Vehicle Lease and Management Agreement (the “767 Lease Agreement”) pursuant to which Hertz granted 767 Auto Leasing LLC (“767”), an entity affiliated with a related party until May 2020, the option to acquire certain vehicles from Hertz. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, 767 distributed $5 million and $15 million, respectively, to American Entertainment Properties Corp. along with the return of certain vehicles. The 767 Lease Agreement was terminated effective October 31, 2021. Prior to the termination of the 767 Lease Agreement, the Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of 767 due to its power to direct the activities of 767 that most significantly impacted 767's economic performance and the Company's obligation to absorb 25% of 767's gains/losses and, accordingly, 767 was consolidated by the Company as a VIE.

Americas RAC – rental of vehicles (cars, crossovers, vans and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean; and

International RAC – rental and leasing of vehicles (cars, crossovers, vans and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services internationally and consists primarily of the Company's Europe and other international locations.

In the second quarter of 2021, as a result of the Donlen Sale, as disclosed in Note 3, "Divestitures," the All Other Operations reportable segment, which consisted primarily of the Company's former Donlen business, was no longer deemed a reportable segment.

In addition to its reportable segments and other operating activities, the Company has corporate operations ("Corporate") which includes general corporate assets and expenses and certain interest expense (including net interest on non-vehicle debt). Corporate includes other items necessary to reconcile the reportable segments to the Company's total amounts.

The following tables provide significant statement of operations and balance sheet information by reportable segment for each of Hertz Global and Hertz, as well as Adjusted EBITDA, the measure used to determine segment profitability.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities, "Hertz Global") is a holding company and its principal, wholly-owned subsidiary is The Hertz Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities, "Hertz"). Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes, and Hertz comprises approximately the entire balance of Hertz Global’s assets, liabilities and operating cash flows. In addition, Hertz’s operating revenues and operating expenses comprise nearly 100% of Hertz Global’s revenues and operating expenses. As such, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") that follows herein is for Hertz and also applies to Hertz Global in all material respects, unless otherwise noted. Differences between the operations and results of Hertz and Hertz Global are separately disclosed and explained. We sometimes use the words “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” in this MD&A for disclosures that relate to all of Hertz and Hertz Global.

The statements in this MD&A regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding the performance of our business and the other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. The following MD&A provides information that we believe to be relevant to an understanding of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A presented in our 2021 Form 10-K together with the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors,” and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022 (this "Quarterly Report"), which include additional information about our accounting policies, practices and the transactions underlying our financial results. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes including revenue earning vehicle depreciation and various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes and other matters arising during the normal course of business. We apply our best judgment, our knowledge of existing facts and circumstances and our knowledge of actions that we may undertake in the future in determining the estimates that will affect our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis using our historical experience, as well as other factors we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances, such as current economic conditions, and adjust or revise our estimates as circumstances change. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results may differ from these estimates.

In this MD&A we refer to the following non-GAAP measure and key metrics:
Adjusted Corporate EBITDA – important non-GAAP measure to management because it allows management to assess the operational performance of our business, exclusive of certain items, and allows management to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as the segment measure of profitability. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows investors to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally. Adjusted EBITDA, the segment measure of profitability and accordingly a GAAP measure, is calculated exclusive of certain items which are largely consistent with those used in the calculation of Adjusted Corporate EBITDA.
Vehicle Utilization – Effective in the first quarter of 2022, in connection with the appointment of the new CEO (who serves as our Chief Operating Decision Maker) and arising from significantly increased activity in vehicle dispositions, we began using Average Rentable Vehicles in the denominator in our calculation of Vehicle Utilization. Vehicle Utilization is calculated by dividing total Transaction Days by Available Car Days. Available Car Days represents Average Rentable Vehicles multiplied by the number of days in a given period. Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on our retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels. We believe this is a better measure of the productivity of our rental fleet as it is unaffected by fluctuations in disposition activity. Accordingly, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Depreciation Per Unit Per Month – important key metric to management and investors as depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges is one of our largest expenses for the vehicle rental business and is driven by the number of vehicles, expected residual values at the expected time of disposal and expected hold period of the vehicles. Depreciation Per Unit Per Month is reflective of how we are managing the costs of our vehicles and facilitates a comparison with other participants in the vehicle rental industry.
Total Revenue Per Transaction Day ("Total RPD," also referred to as "pricing") – important key metric to management and investors as it represents a measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the vehicle rental business and encompasses the elements in vehicle rental pricing that management has the ability to control. Effective in the third quarter of 2021, we revised our calculation of Total RPD to include ancillary retail vehicle sales revenues to better align with current industry practice, and accordingly, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition.
Total Revenue Per Unit Per Month ("Total RPU") – important key metric to management and investors as it provides a measure of revenue productivity relative to the number of vehicles in our rental fleet whether owned or leased ("Average Rentable Vehicles"). Effective in the third quarter of 2021, we revised our calculation of Total RPU to include ancillary retail vehicle sales revenues to better align with current industry practice and effective in the first quarter of 2022, we revised to use Average Rentable Vehicles as the denominator in our calculation of Total RPU. Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on the Company’s retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels. We believe this is a better measure of the productivity of our rental fleet as it is unaffected by fluctuations in disposition activity. There has been no change to revenue as used in the numerator of the calculation which includes vehicle rental and rental related revenues, licensee revenue and ancillary retail vehicle sales revenue. Prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition.
Transaction Days – important key metric to management and investors as it represents the number of revenue generating days ("volume"). It is used as a component to measure Total RPD and Vehicle Utilization. Transaction Days represent the total number of 24-hour periods, with any partial period counted as one Transaction Day, that vehicles were on rent (the period between when a rental contract is opened and closed) in a given period. Thus, it is possible for a vehicle to attain more than one Transaction Day in a 24-hour period.

Our non-GAAP measure and key metrics should not be considered in isolation and should not be considered superior to, or a substitute for, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The above non-GAAP measure and key metrics are defined, and the non-GAAP measure is reconciled to its most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" section of this MD&A.

OUR COMPANY

Hertz Holdings was incorporated in Delaware in 2015 to serve as the top-level holding company for Rental Car Intermediate Holdings, LLC, which wholly owns Hertz, Hertz Global's primary operating company. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967 and is a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the vehicle rental and leasing business since 1918.

We operate our vehicle rental business globally from company-owned, licensee and franchisee locations in North America, Europe, Latin America, Africa, Asia, Australia, the Caribbean, the Middle East and New Zealand. We also sell vehicles through Hertz Car Sales and operate the Firefly vehicle rental brand and Hertz 24/7 car sharing business in international markets. Previously, in addition to vehicle rental, we provided integrated vehicle leasing and fleet management solutions through our Donlen subsidiary, which was sold on March 30, 2021.

OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business Environment

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, affecting multiple global regions. In an effort to halt the spread of COVID-19, many governments around the world placed significant restrictions on travel. Beginning in the second half of 2021, and continuing into 2022, many government-imposed restrictions have been lifted or eased, and travel, particularly domestic leisure travel, has experienced a strong rebound. However, there remains continued uncertainty about the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its variants, including the impact of the continuing global semiconductor microchip manufacturing shortage (the "Chip Shortage") and other supply chain constraints.

Voluntary Petitions for Bankruptcy and Emergence

On May 22, 2020, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Court. On June 10, 2021, the Plan of Reorganization was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and on June 30, 2021, the Plan of Reorganization became effective and the Debtors emerged from Chapter 11.

Our Business

We are engaged principally in the business of renting vehicles primarily through our Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands. Our profitability is primarily a function of the volume, mix and pricing of rental transactions and the utilization of vehicles, the related ownership cost of vehicles and other operating costs. Significant changes in the purchase price or residual values of vehicles or interest rates can have a significant effect on our profitability depending on our ability to adjust pricing for these changes. We continue to balance our mix of non-program and program vehicles based on market conditions, including residual values. Our business requires significant expenditures for vehicles, and as such, we require substantial liquidity to finance such expenditures.

Our strategy is focused on excellence in execution of our rental operations, electrification of the fleet, shared mobility, connected cars and exiting vehicles from the fleet directly to consumers. Our revenues are primarily derived from rental and related charges and consist of worldwide vehicle rental revenues from all company-operated vehicle rental operations and charges to customers for the reimbursement of costs incurred relating to airport concession fees and vehicle license fees, the fueling of vehicles and revenues associated with value-added services, including the sale of loss or collision damage waivers, theft protection, liability and personal accident/effects insurance coverage, premium emergency roadside service and other products and fees. Also included are ancillary revenues associated with retail vehicle sales and certain royalty fees from our franchisees (such fees are less than 2% of total revenues each period).

Our expenses primarily consist of:
Direct vehicle and operating expense ("DOE"), primarily wages and related benefits; commissions and concession fees paid to airport authorities, travel agents and others; facility, self-insurance and reservation costs; and other costs relating to the operation and rental of revenue earning vehicles, such as damage, maintenance and fuel costs;
Depreciation expense and lease charges, net relating to revenue earning vehicles, including gains and losses and related costs associated with the disposal of vehicles;
Depreciation and amortization expense relating to non-vehicle assets;
Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A"), which includes advertising costs and administrative personnel costs, along with costs for information technology and finance transformation programs; and
Interest expense, net.

Our vehicle rental operations are a seasonal business, with decreased levels of business in the winter months and heightened activity during the spring and summer months ("our peak season") for the majority of countries where

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

we generate our revenues. To accommodate increased demand, we increase our available fleet and staff. As demand declines, fleet and staff are decreased accordingly. A number of our other major operating costs, including airport concession fees, commissions and vehicle liability expenses, are directly related to revenues or transaction volumes. We also maintain a flexible workforce, with a significant number of part-time and seasonal workers. Certain operating expenses, including real estate taxes, rent, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other facility-related expenses, and minimum staffing costs, remain fixed and cannot be adjusted for demand.

Our Reportable Segments

We have identified two reportable segments, which are consistent with our operating segments and organized based on the products and services provided and the geographic areas in which business is conducted, as follows:

Americas RAC – Rental of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean; and
International RAC – Rental and leasing of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, internationally and consists primarily of our Europe and other international locations.

In the second quarter of 2021, as a result of the Donlen Sale, the All Other Operations reportable segment, which was primarily comprised of the Donlen business, was no longer deemed to be a reportable segment.

In addition to the above reportable segments, we have corporate operations. We assess performance and allocate resources based upon the financial information for our operating segments.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Operating Overview

Effective in the first quarter of 2022, we began using Average Rentable Vehicles in the denominator in our calculation of Vehicle Utilization and Total RPU. Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on our retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels. We believe this is a better measure of the productivity of our rental fleet as it is unaffected by fluctuations in disposition activity. Accordingly, prior periods have been restated to reflect this change. Effective during the third quarter of 2021, we changed our definition of Total RPD and Total RPU to include ancillary retail sales revenues to better align with current industry practice, and accordingly, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definitions.

The following charts provide the period-over-period change for several key factors influencing our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Total revenues increased $471 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to increased travel demand. Total revenues increased $331 million and $141 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. Excluding an unfavorable $3 million fx impact, Americas RAC revenues increased $334 million due primarily to higher volume and pricing. Excluding an unfavorable $41 million fx impact, revenues for our International RAC segment increased $182 million due primarily to higher pricing and volume.

DOE increased $252 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to an increase of $209 million and $43 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. DOE in our Americas RAC segment increased due primarily to higher personnel costs as well as fleet-related costs driven by increased travel demand and fleet age. Excluding an unfavorable $23 million fx impact, DOE in our International RAC segment increased $66 million due primarily to higher volume driven by increased travel demand.

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net decreased $10 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to a decrease of $20 million in our Americas RAC segment, partly offset by an increase of $9 million in our International RAC segment. The decrease in our Americas RAC segment was due primarily to strength in residual values and an increase in gains recognized on the disposition of vehicles. Excluding an unfavorable $5 million fx impact, depreciation increased $15 million in our International RAC segment due in part to increased fleet size resulting from longer vehicle holding periods.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

SG&A increased $85 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to non-cash stock-based compensation costs and professional fees in our corporate operations, increased advertising spend in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, partly offset by decreased bankruptcy-related charges in our corporation operations.

Vehicle interest expense, net decreased $53 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to lower average rates from the issuance of HVF III ABS Notes and the payoff and termination of HVF II debt in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization in 2021, as well as $21 million of gains on interest rate caps on the HVF III ABS Notes primarily in our Americas RAC segment.

Non-vehicle interest expense, net decreased $50 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to lower average interest rates partially offset by higher debt levels.

We had other income of $10 million in the second quarter of 2021 due in part to the gain on the sales of certain franchises in our Americas RAC segment.

In the second quarter of 2021, we incurred $469 million of net reorganization charges, primarily in our corporate operations, which was comprised primarily of professional fees associated with the Chapter 11 Cases, the loss on extinguishment of certain debt resulting from the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization, a prior plan sponsor breakup fee and other miscellaneous charges related to the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a tax provision of $178 million which resulted in an effective tax rate of 27%. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a tax benefit of $46 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 90%.

The change in tax in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021 is driven by improvements in our financial performance, as well as non-deductible bankruptcy costs incurred in 2021 and tax benefits associated with the restructuring in Europe recognized in 2021.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 Compared with Six months ended June 30, 2021

Total revenues increased $993 million in the first half of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to an increase of $921 million and $207 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $136 million in All other operations. Excluding an unfavorable $3 million fx impact, revenues for our Americas RAC segment increased $924 million due primarily to higher volume and pricing. Excluding an unfavorable $58 million fx impact, revenues for our International RAC segment increased $265 million resulting from higher pricing and volume. All other operations decreased due to the Donlen Sale in the first quarter of 2021.

DOE increased $528 million in the first half of 2022 compared to 2021 due primarily to an increase of $471 million and $69 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $8 million in our corporate operations. The increase in Americas RAC DOE was due primarily to higher personnel costs as well as fleet-related costs driven by increased travel demand and fleet age. Excluding an unfavorable $33 million fx impact DOE for International RAC increased $102 million due to higher volume driven by increased travel demand. The decrease in our corporate operations was due primarily to lower personnel costs.

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges decreased $312 million in the first half of 2022 compared to 2021 due to a decrease of $321 million in our Americas RAC segment, partly offset by an increase of $9 million in our International RAC segment. The decrease in our Americas RAC segment is due primarily to strength in residual values and an increase in gains recognized on the disposition of vehicles. Excluding an unfavorable $8 million impact of fx, depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges for our International RAC segment increased $17 million due primarily to increased fleet size due in part to longer vehicle holding periods resulting from new vehicle production constraints due to the Chip Shortage, partially offset by strength in residual values.

(8)Represents miscellaneous items. For 2022, primarily includes bankruptcy claims, certain professional fees and charges related to the settlement of bankruptcy claims and certain non-cash stock-based compensation charges. For 2021, includes $100 million associated with the suspension of depreciation during the first quarter for the Donlen business while classified as held for sale, partially offset by letter of credit fees recorded in the first half of the year and charges for a multiemployer pension plan withdrawal liability recorded in the first quarter.

(b)Transaction Days represents the total number of 24-hour periods, with any partial period counted as one Transaction Day, that vehicles were on rent (the period between when a rental contract is opened and closed) in a given period. Thus, it is possible for a vehicle to attain more than one Transaction Day in a 24-hour period. 

(c)Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on our retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels and determined using a simple average of such vehicles at the beginning and end of a given period. Effective in the first quarter of 2022, as discussed above, we revised our calculation of Vehicle Utilization to use Average Rentable Vehicles in the denominator. Accordingly, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition. Vehicle Utilization is calculated by dividing total Transaction Days by Available Car Days.

(d)Total RPD is calculated as revenues with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates ("Total Revenues - adjusted for foreign currency"), divided by the total number of Transaction Days. As discussed above, effective in the third quarter of 2021, we revised our calculation of Total RPD to include ancillary retail vehicle sales revenues, and accordingly, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is useful in analyzing underlying trends. The calculation of Total RPD is shown below:

(f)    Depreciation Per Unit Per Month represents the amount of average depreciation expense and lease charges, per vehicle per month and is calculated as depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, divided by the Average Vehicles in each period, which is determined using a simple average of the number of vehicles at the beginning and end of a period, and then dividing by the number of months in the period reported. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is useful in analyzing underlying trends.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our U.S. and international operations are funded by cash provided by operating activities and by extensive financing arrangements, both debt and equity, maintained by us in the U.S. and internationally.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2022, we had $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $522 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2022, $321 million of cash and cash equivalents and $91 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents were held by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. We do not assert permanent reinvestment with respect to our non-U.S. earnings, and if not in the form of loan repayments or subject to favorable tax treaties, repatriation of some of these funds under current regulatory and tax law for use in domestic operations could expose us to additional cash taxes.

We believe that cash and cash equivalents generated by our operations and cash received on the disposal of vehicles, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities and refinancing options available to us in the capital markets, will be sufficient to fund our operating activities and obligations for the next twelve months.

Cash Flows - Hertz

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Hertz had cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, and restricted cash and cash equivalents of $522 million and $393 million, respectively. The following table summarizes the net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents for the periods shown:

Effect of exchange rate changes(25)(8)(17)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents$(1,087)$1,145 $(2,232)

During the first half of 2022, cash flows from operating activities increased by $865 million period over period due primarily to a $758 million change in net income attributable to Hertz, as adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items, and a $107 million change in working capital accounts. Cash flows from working capital accounts increased due primarily to the reduction of reorganization items and professional fees and the elimination of certain expense prepayment requirements while in Chapter 11, partially offset by the payment of bankruptcy claims in 2022 that had been previously deferred and subject to compromise while in Chapter 11 in 2021.

Our primary investing activities relate to the acquisition and disposal of revenue earning vehicles. During the first half of 2022, there was a $935 million increase in the cash used in investing activities period over period due primarily to $818 million of net proceeds received from the Donlen Sale in 2021 with no comparable in the 2022 period and a $265 million net increase in cash expenditures primarily resulting from the acquisition of vehicles to meet increased travel demand, partially offset by $208 million related to cash collateral payments, net of returns, for certain outstanding letters of credit upon emergence from bankruptcy in 2021.

Net financing cash inflows were $859 million in the first half of 2022 compared to cash inflows of $3.0 billion in the 2021 period. The $2.1 billion decrease in cash inflows was due in part to a $5.6 billion contribution from Hertz Holdings in 2021 with no comparable in 2022, $1.6 billion of dividends paid to Hertz Holdings to fund share repurchases in 2022, partially offset by $4.9 billion of net proceeds primarily related to the issuance of new vehicle debt in 2022.

the length and severity of COVID-19 and the impact on our vehicle rental business as a result of travel restrictions and business closures or disruptions, as well as the impact on our employee retention and talent management strategies;
the impact of macroeconomic conditions resulting in inflationary cost pressures resulting in labor and supply chain constraints, increased vehicle acquisition costs, and reductions in travel demand, among others;
our ability to purchase adequate supplies of competitively priced vehicles at a reasonable cost as a result of the continuing global semiconductor microchip manufacturing shortage (the "Chip Shortage") and other raw material supply constraints;
the impact of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine on supply chains and raw materials for the automotive industry and uncertainty on overall consumer sentiment and travel demand, especially in Europe;
the impact on the value of our non-program vehicles upon disposition when the Chip Shortage and other raw material supply constraints are alleviated;
our ability to attract and retain key employees;
levels of travel demand, particularly business and leisure travel in the U.S. and in global markets;
significant changes in the competitive environment and the effect of competition in our markets on rental volume and pricing;

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates (including credit spreads), foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in fuel prices. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are viewed as risk management tools and have not been used for speculative or trading purposes. In addition, derivative financial instruments are entered into with a diversified group of major financial institutions in order to manage our exposure to counterparty nonperformance on such instruments.

There have been no material changes to the information reported under Part II, Item 7A of our 2021 Form 10-K.

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For a description of certain pending legal proceedings see Note 12, "Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
 
Part I, Item 1A of our 2021 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, includes certain risk factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes in those risk factors, except as listed below:

Risks Related to our Business

Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by disruptions in the global economy caused by the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

The global economy has been negatively impacted by the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Furthermore, governments in the U.S., United Kingdom, and European Union have each imposed export controls on certain products and financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia. Shortages in materials and increased costs for transportation, energy, and raw material, as well as uncertainty on overall consumer sentiment and travel demand, especially in Europe, are some of the negative impacts of the Russia-Ukraine military conflict on the global economy. In particular, shortages and increased costs relating to raw materials extracted from, or components produced in, Russia and/or Ukraine, which are important to the vehicle manufacturing industry including the production of electric vehicle batteries, may impact vehicle production volumes, delivery schedules and costs. Further escalation of geopolitical tensions related to the military conflict, including increased trade barriers or restrictions on global trade, could result in, among other things, cyberattacks, supply disruptions, lower consumer demand, and changes to foreign exchange rates and financial markets, any of which may adversely affect our business and further exacerbate supply chain issues in the automotive industry. In addition, the effects of the ongoing conflict could heighten many of our known risks described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

quarter of 2022, the Company completed the 2021 Share Repurchase Program. A total of 97,783,047 shares of Hertz Global common stock were repurchased since the inception of this program for an aggregate purchase price of $2.0 billion.

In June 2022, Hertz Global's Board of Directors approved the 2022 Share Repurchase Program that authorized additional repurchases of up to an incremental $2.0 billion worth of shares of Hertz Global's outstanding common stock. In June 2022, a total of 1,207,930 shares of Hertz Global's common stock were repurchased under this program at an average share price of $16.56 for an aggregate purchase price of $20 million.

Repurchases under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in private transactions or otherwise. The authorization does not have a stated expiration date. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company's financial position, earnings, share price, market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate Hertz Global to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be discontinued at any time. There can be no assurance as to the timing or number of any share repurchases.

(v)    Class B Delayed Funding Procedures.
(A)    A Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser, upon receipt of any notice of a Class B Advance pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(i), promptly (but in no event later than 6:00 p.m. (London time) on the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class B Advance) may notify the Issuer in writing (a “Class B Delayed Funding Notice”) of its election to designate such Class B Advance as a delayed Class B Advance (such Class B Advance, a “Class B Designated Delayed Advance”). If such Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser’s ratable portion of such Class B Advance exceeds its Class B Required Non-Delayed Amount (such excess amount, the “Class B Permitted Delayed Amount”), then the Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser shall also include in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice the portion of such Class B Advance (such amount as specified in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice, not to exceed such Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser’s Class B Permitted Delayed Amount, the “Class B Delayed Amount”) that the Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser has elected to fund on a Business Day that is on or prior to the thirty-fifth (35th) day following the proposed date of such Class B Advance (such date as specified in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice, the “Class B Delayed Funding Date”) rather than on the date for such Class B Advance specified in the related Class B Advance Request.
(B)    If (A) one or more Class B Delayed Funding Purchasers provide a Class B Delayed Funding Notice to the Issuer specifying a Class B Delayed Amount in respect of any Class B Advance and (B) the Issuer shall not have revoked the notice of the Class B Advance by 10:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days preceding the proposed date of such Class B Advance, then the Issuer, by no later than 11:30 a.m. (London time) two Business Days preceding the date of such proposed Class B Advance, may (but shall have no obligation to) direct each Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser to fund an additional portion of such Class B Advance on the proposed date of such Class B Advance equal to such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s proportionate share (based upon the relative Class B Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchasers) of the aggregate Class B Delayed Amount with respect to the proposed Advance; provided that, (i) no Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser shall be required to fund any portion of its proportionate share of such aggregate Class B Delayed Amount that would cause its Class B Investor Group Principal Amount to exceed its Class B Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount and (ii) any Class B Conduit Investor, if any, in the Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Investor Group may, in its sole discretion, agree to fund such proportionate share of such aggregate Class B Delayed Amount.
(C)    Upon receipt of any notice of a Class B Delayed Amount in respect of a Class B Advance pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v)(B) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures), a Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser, promptly (but in no event later than 6:00 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class B Advance) may notify the Issuer in writing (a “Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice”) of its election to decline to fund a portion of its proportionate share of such Class B Delayed Amount (such portion, the “Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount”); provided that, the Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount shall not exceed
14
WEIL:


the excess, if any, of (A) such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s proportionate share of such Class B Delayed Amount over (B) such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Class B Required Non-Delayed Amount (after giving effect to the funding of any amount in respect of such C Class B Advance to be made by such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser or the Class B Conduit Investor in such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Class B Investor Group) (such excess amount, the “Class B Second Permitted Delayed Amount”), and upon any such election, such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser shall include in the Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice the Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount.
(vi)    Funding Class B Advances
(A)    Subject to the other conditions set forth in this Sub-Clause 2.2(b) (Class B Advances), on the date of each Class B Advance, each Class B Conduit Investor and Class B Committed Note Purchaser(s) funding such Class B Advance shall make available to the Issuer its portion of the amount of such Class B Advance (other than any Class B Delayed Amount) by wire transfer in Euros in same day funds to the Issuer Principal Collection Account no later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the date of such Class B Advance. Proceeds from any Class B Advance shall be deposited into the Issuer Principal Collection Account.
(B)    A Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser that delivered a Class B Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class B Delayed Amount shall be obligated to fund such Class B Delayed Amount on the related Class B Delayed Funding Date in the manner set forth in the next succeeding sentence, irrespective of whether the Commitment Termination Date shall have occurred on or prior to such Class B Delayed Funding Date or the Issuer would be able to satisfy the Class B Funding Conditions on such Class B Delayed Funding Date. Such Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser shall (i) (if applicable) pay the sum of the Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount related to such Class B Delayed Amount, if any, to the Issuer no later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the related Class B Delayed Funding Date by wire transfer in Euros in same day funds to the Issuer Principal Collection Account, and (ii) pay the Class B Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount related to such Class B Delayed Amount, if any, on such related Class B Delayed Funding Date to each applicable Class B Funding Agent in immediately available funds for the ratable benefit of the related Class B Available Delayed Amount Purchasers that funded the Class B Delayed Amount on the date of the Class B Advance related to such Class B Delayed Amount in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v)(C) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures), based on the relative amount of such Class B Delayed Amount funded by such Class B Available Delayed Amount Purchaser on the date of such Class B Advance pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v)(C) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures).
(vii)    Class B Funding Defaults. If, by 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the date of any Class B Advance, one or more Class B Committed Note Purchasers in a Class B Investor Group (each, a “Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser,” and each Class B Committed Note Purchaser in the related Class B Investor Group that is not a Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser, a “Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser”) fails to make its portion of such Class B Advance, available to the Issuer pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(vi) (Funding Class B Advances) (the aggregate amount unavailable to the Issuer as a result of any such failure being herein called an “Class B Advance Deficit”), then the Class B Funding Agent for such Class B Investor Group, by no later than 2:30 p.m. (London time) on the applicable date of such Class B Advance, shall instruct each Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser in the same Class B Investor Group as the Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser to pay, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (London time), in immediately available funds, to the

Issuer Principal Collection Account, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (based upon the relative Class B Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchasers) of the Class B Advance Deficit and (ii) the amount by which such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (by Class B Committed Note Purchaser Percentage) of the Class B Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount for such Class B Investor Group exceeds the portion of the Class B Investor Group Principal Amount for such Class B Investor Group funded by such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser (determined after giving effect to all Advances already made by such Class B Investor Group on such date). A Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser shall forthwith, upon demand, pay to the applicable Funding Agent for the ratable benefit of the Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchasers all amounts paid by each such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser on behalf of such Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date a payment was made by a Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser until the date such Class B Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser has been paid such amounts in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Reference Rate plus 0.50% per annum. For the avoidance of doubt, no Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser that has provided a Class B Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class B Advance shall be considered to be in default of its obligation to fund its Class B Delayed Amount or be treated as a Class B Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser hereunder unless and until it has failed to fund the Class B Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount or the Class B Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount on the related Class B Delayed Funding Date in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(vi)(B) (Funding Class B Advances).
(c)    No obligation to make Class A Advance Requests or Class B Advance Requests. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer is not obliged to make any Class A Advance Requests or Class B Advance Requests, save that the Issuer shall deliver a Class A Advance Request to the Administrative Agent, the Class A Funding Agents and the Issuer Security Trustee (i) on the third Business Day prior to the Payment Date immediately preceding the Commitment Termination Date, in an amount equal to the Required Reserve Advance Amount and (ii) upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, in an amount equal to the Required Reserve Advance Amount; provided that, if the Issuer obtains actual knowledge of the occurrence of a Liquidation Event after 10:30 a.m. (London time) on any Business Day, the Class A Advance Request required to be delivered in accordance with item (ii) of this Sub-Clause 2.2(c) shall be delivered no later than 11:30 a.m. (London time) on the next succeeding Business Day; provided further that, no Class A Advance Request shall be required in accordance with item (ii) of this Sub-Clause 2.2(c) if a Class A Advance Request shall have previously been delivered in accordance with item (i) of this Sub-Clause 2.2(c).

(v)    Breakage. Subject to and in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5 (Funding Losses), (x) with respect to each Class A Excess Principal Mandatory Decrease or Class A Illegality Mandatory Decrease, the Issuer shall reimburse each Class A Investor Group or Class A Noteholder (as the case may be) on the next succeeding Payment Date for any associated breakage costs payable as a result of such Class A Excess Principal Mandatory Decrease or Class A Illegality Mandatory Decrease and (y) with respect to each Class B Excess Principal Mandatory Decrease or Class B Illegality Mandatory Decrease, the Issuer shall reimburse each Class B Investor Group or Class B Noteholder (as the case may be) on the next succeeding Payment Date for any associated breakage costs payable as a result of such Class B Excess Principal Mandatory Decrease or Class B Illegality Mandatory Decrease.

7.5    Control by Required Noteholders
The Required Noteholders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Issuer Security Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Issuer Security Trustee.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Issuer Security Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any such Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Issuer Notes of any Noteholder or the rights of any such Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Issuer Security Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any such Noteholder in any such proceeding.

The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other valid right or remedy.
7.11    Delay or Omission Not Waiver
No delay or omission of the Issuer Security Trustee or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Amortization Event shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Amortization Event or acquiescence thereto (other than any such right or remedy that by its terms requires such Amortization Event to be continuing at the time of exercising such right or remedy). Every right and remedy given by this Clause 7 (Amortization Events and Remedies) or by law to the Issuer Security Trustee or to each Noteholder may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Issuer Security Trustee or such Noteholder, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, this Sub-Clause 7.11 (Delay or Omission Not Waiver) shall be subject to and qualified in its entirety by the provisions of Sub-Clause 11.10 (Amendments) and paragraph 2 (Amendments) of Annex 2 (Covenants).

The Issuing Bank hereby agrees that the Letter of Credit Expiration Date shall be automatically extended, without amendment, to the earlier of (1) one year from the then current Letter of Credit Expiration Date and (2) the 15th day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement), unless, no fewer than sixty (60) days before the then current Letter of Credit Expiration Date, we notify you in writing by registered mail (return receipt), registered courier or email that this letter of credit will not be extended beyond the then current Letter of Credit Expiration Date.

both. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the master definitions and constructions agreement signed by, amongst others, the parties to the Issuer Facility Agreement, dated 25 September 2018, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.
The Issuing Bank irrevocably authorizes the Beneficiaries to draw on it, in accordance with the terms and conditions and subject to the reductions in amount as hereinafter set forth, (1) in one or more draws by one or more of either of the Issuer’s or the Issuer Security Trustee’s drafts, each drawn on the Issuing Bank at the Issuing Bank’s Office (including by way of email), payable at sight on a Business Day (as defined below), and accompanied by either of the Issuer’s or the Issuer Security Trustee’s written and completed certificate signed by the Issuer or the Issuer Security Trustee (as applicable) in substantially the form of Annex A (Certificate of Credit Demand) attached hereto (any such draft accompanied by such certificate being a “Credit Demand”), an amount equal to the face amount of each such draft but in the aggregate amount not exceeding the Letter of Credit Amount as in effect on such Business Day (as defined below) and (2) in one or more draws by one or more of either of the Issuer’s or the Issuer Security Trustee’s drafts, each drawn on the Issuing Bank at the Issuing Bank’s Office (including by way of email), payable at sight on a Business Day (as defined below), and accompanied by either of the Issuer’s or the Issuer Security Trustee’s written and completed certificate signed by the Issuer or the Issuer Security Trustee (as applicable) in substantially the form of Annex B (Certificate of Termination Demand) attached hereto (any such draft accompanied by such certificate being a “Termination Demand”), an amount equal to the face amount of each such draft but in the aggregate amount not exceeding the Letter of Credit Amount as in effect on such Business Day.
In this Letter of Credit, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banks are authorized or required by law to close in New York City, New York.
Upon the Issuing Bank honoring any Credit Demand or Termination Demand presented hereunder, the Letter of Credit Amount shall automatically be decreased by an amount equal to the amount of such Credit Demand or Termination Demand. In addition to the foregoing reduction, (i) upon the Issuing Bank honoring any Termination Demand in respect of the entire Letter of Credit Amount presented to it hereunder, the amount available to be drawn under this Letter of Credit shall automatically be reduced to zero and this Letter of Credit shall be terminated and (ii) no amount decreased on the honoring of any Termination Demand shall be reinstated. The Issuing Bank shall notify each Beneficiary in writing of any such reimbursement and the corresponding amount of the reinstatement of the Letter of Credit Amount.
The Letter of Credit Amount shall be automatically reinstated when and to the extent, but only when and to the extent, that (i) the Issuing Bank is reimbursed by Hertz (or by the Issuer under Clause 5.6 (Past Due Rental Payments) or Clause 5.7 (Letters of Credit and L/C Cash Collateral Account) of the Issuer Facility Agreement) for any amount drawn hereunder as a Credit Demand and (ii) the Issuing Bank receives written notice from Hertz in substantially the form of Annex C (Certificate of Reinstatement of Letter of Credit Amount) hereto that no Event of Bankruptcy with respect to Hertz has occurred and is continuing; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Amount shall, in no event, be reinstated to an amount in excess of the then current Letter of Credit Amount (without giving effect to any reduction to the Letter of Credit Amount that resulted from any such Credit Demand).

This Agreement (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the provisions hereof, this “Agreement”) is made on 25 September 2018, as amended and restated on 29 April 2021, 21 December 2021 and further amended and restated on 21 June 2022 and shall become effective at the Effective Time between:
(1)    STUURGROEP FLEET (NETHERLANDS) B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid), incorporated and existing under Dutch law, with its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, having its registered address at Scorpius 120, 2132 LR Hoofddorp, the Netherlands, registered with the Trade Register of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 34275100 (“Dutch FleetCo”), as lessor (in such capacity, the “Lessor”);
(2)    HERTZ AUTOMOBIELEN NEDERLAND B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid), incorporated and existing under Dutch law, with its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, having its registered address at Scorpius 120, 2132 LR Hoofddorp, the Netherlands, registered with the Trade Register of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 34049337 (“Dutch OpCo”), as a lessee and as servicer (in such capacity as servicer, the “Servicer”);
(3)    those various Permitted Lessees (as defined herein) from time to time becoming Lessees hereunder pursuant to Clause 12 (Additional Lessees) hereof (each an “Additional Lessee”) as lessees (Dutch OpCo and the Additional Lessees, in their capacities as lessees, each a “Lessee” and, collectively, the “Lessees”); and
(4)    BNP PARIBAS TRUST CORPORATION UK LIMITED, acting through its registered office at 10 Harewood Avenue, London NW1 6AA as Dutch security trustee (in such capacity, the “Dutch Security Trustee”).
Whereas:
(A)    The Lessor has purchased or will purchase Dutch Vehicles from various parties on arm’s length terms pursuant to one or more other motor vehicle purchase agreements or otherwise, in each case, that the Lessor determines shall be leased hereunder.
(B)    The Lessor desires to lease to each Lessee and each Lessee desires to lease from the Lessor certain Lease Vehicles for use in connection with the business of such Lessee, including use by such Lessee’s employees, directors, officers, representatives, agents and other business associates in their personal or professional capacities.
(C)    The Lessor and each Lessee desire the Servicer to perform various servicing functions with respect to the Lease Vehicles (to the extent relating to the Vehicles purported to be leased pursuant to this Agreement), and the Servicer desires to perform such functions, in accordance with the terms hereof.
The Parties hereby agree as follows
1    Definitions and Construction
1.1    Definitions
Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the master definitions and constructions agreement signed by, amongst others, the parties hereto dated the Signing Date as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the “Master Definitions and Constructions
1
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







Agreement”). All Clause or paragraph references herein shall refer to clauses, Clauses or paragraphs of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein.
1.2    Rules of Construction
1.2.1    In this Agreement, including the preamble, recitals, attachments, schedules, annexes, exhibits and joinders hereto, unless the context otherwise requires, words and expressions used have the constructions ascribed to them in clause 2 (Principles of Interpretation and Construction) of the Master Definitions and Constructions Agreement.
1.2.2    If any obligations of a party to this Agreement or provisions of this Agreement are subject to or contrary to any mandatory principles of applicable law, compliance with such obligations and/or provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be subject to such mandatory principles (or waived) to the extent necessary to be in compliance with such law.
1.2.3    In this Agreement, the term “sub-lease” means any underlease, sub-lease, license or mandate in relation to the use of a Lease Vehicle between a Lessee as lessor and a sub-lessee as lessee but does not include, for the avoidance of doubt, any arrangements and normal business operations involving the ultimate return of Lease Vehicles from locations not operated by a Lessee to drop locations of such Lessee (and ancillary use or transportation of such Lease Vehicles in relation thereto).
1.2.4    Words in Dutch used in this Agreement and having a specific legal meaning should prevail over the English translation.
1.3    Scope of Agreement
The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement is only being entered into in connection with the Vehicles purported to be leased pursuant to this Agreement, the Dutch Collateral and the Dutch Related Documents and that there is a separate Spanish Master Lease being entered into between, inter alios, Spanish FleetCo and Spanish OpCo in connection with the Spanish Vehicles, Spanish Collateral and the Spanish Related Documents.
1.4    Effectiveness
The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the rights and obligations under this Agreement shall become effective at the Effective Time.
2    Nature of Agreement
(a)    Each Lessee and the Lessor acknowledges that the relationship between the Lessor and each Lessee pursuant to this Agreement shall be only that of a lessor (verhuurder) and a lessee (huurder) and that any lease of Lease Vehicles granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be a lease (huur) governed by Dutch law and title to the Lease Vehicles will at all times remain with the Lessor. No Lessee shall acquire by virtue of this Agreement any rights in or option to purchase any Lease Vehicles leased to it whatsoever, other than the right of possession and use as provided by this Agreement.

(A)    this Dutch Master Lease constitutes a single indivisible lease of all the Vehicles subject to such Dutch Master Lease and not separate leases governed by similar terms; and
(B)    this Dutch Master Lease is intended for all purposes (including bankruptcy) to be a single lease with respect to all Vehicles subject to such Dutch Master Lease.
2.1.2    [Reserved]
2.2    Lease of Vehicles

(as lessee thereunder), Stuurgroep Fleet (Netherlands) B.V. (as lessor thereunder) and BNP Paribas Trust Corporation UK Limited (as borrower security trustee) thereunder (which such agreement shall, for the purposes of this Clause 2.2, be referred to as the “Terminated Dutch Master Lease”);

4
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







(B)    Any order of Vehicles will be made by Dutch Opco acting in its capacity as Dutch Servicer on behalf of Dutch Fleetco. The Lessor shall not incur any Liability of any type whatsoever if it does not or cannot accept any order of new Vehicle (including if the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.2.3 (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are satisfied).
(C)    Before making any order of Vehicle, the Dutch Servicer shall verify that the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.2.3 (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are or will be complied with. Any waiver of a condition precedent will require the prior written consent of the Dutch Security Trustee.
(D)    Each Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessor one or more schedules identifying the vehicles which the Lessor has acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement following a request by such Lessee, which schedules shall include the Basic Lease Vehicle Information (each such schedule, a “Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule”). Each Lessee hereby agrees that each such delivery of a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule shall be deemed hereunder to constitute a representation and warranty by such Lessee, to and in favour of the Lessor, that each condition precedent to the leasing of the Lease Vehicles identified in such Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule has been satisfied as of the date on which the relevant Lease Vehicles were ordered and delivered.
(E)    During the period from the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date in respect of a Lease Vehicle to the date that such Lease Vehicle is first identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule, the existence of a lease between the Lessor and a Lessee in respect of that Lease Vehicle shall be evidenced and determined by reference to the records of the Lessor (which such records shall be held to be correct for all purposes unless manifestly erroneous).

2.2.5    The Lessee shall indemnify the Lessor in respect of any Liabilities which the Lessor may suffer in circumstances where the Lessor has ordered a Vehicle or Vehicles in accordance with the terms of the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and (i) the Lessee has cancelled or amended the aforementioned Vehicle or Vehicles and/or (ii) the Lessor has accepted an order but subsequently is made aware of an event which would give rise to a Master Lease Termination Notice being served and rejects such notice, and/or (iii) a lease is not entered into by the date on which the Lessor pays the purchase price for such Vehicle or Vehicles (including, without limitation, where a lease is not entered into because the conditions precedent in Clause 2.2.3 (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) above are not satisfied).
2.2.6    Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection
(A)    Subject to paragraph (B) below, with respect to any vehicle identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule and made available for lease by the Lessor to any Lessee, such Lessee shall have the right to inspect such
5
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







vehicle within five days of receipt (or such shorter period as may be contemplated under the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) (the “Inspection Period”) of such vehicle and either accept or, if such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, reject such vehicle, provided that such Lessee shall be deemed to have accepted such vehicle as a Lease Vehicle unless it has notified the Lessor in writing that such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle during the Inspection Period (the delivery date of such written notice, the “Rejection Date”). If such Lessee timely notifies the Lessor that such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, then such Non-conforming Lease Vehicle with respect to which such Lessee has so notified the Lessor shall be a “Rejected Vehicle”.
(B)    Notwithstanding paragraph (A) above, a Lessee will only be entitled to reject any Lease Vehicle delivered to it by or on behalf of the Lessor (A) if the Lessor is itself entitled to reject such Lease Vehicle under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement pursuant to which such Vehicle was ordered and (B) subject to the same conditions (to the extent applicable) as to rejection as may be applicable to the Lessor under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement in respect of such Vehicle.
(C)    The Lessor shall cause the Servicer to dispose of a Rejected Vehicle described in paragraph (A) above (including by returning such Rejected Vehicle to the seller thereof in accordance with the terms of the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) in accordance with Clause 6.2 (Servicer functions with respect to Lease Vehicle Returns, Disposition and Invoicing).
2.3    Certain Transfers
2.3.1    Sales to Lessee. The Lessor may sell a Lease Vehicle during such Lease Vehicle’s Vehicle Term to the relevant Lessee for an amount equal to the net book value under GAAP of such Lease Vehicle.
2.3.2    Intra-Lease Transfers. From time to time, a particular Lessee (the “Transferor Lessee”) may desire to cease leasing a Lease Vehicle hereunder and another Lessee (the “Transferee Lessee”) may desire to commence leasing such Lease Vehicle hereunder. Upon delivery by such Lessees to the Lessor of written notice identifying by VIN each Lease Vehicle to be so transferred from such Transferor Lessee to such Transferee Lessee (such notice, an “Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule”), each Lease Vehicle identified in such Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule shall cease to be leased by the Transferor Lessee and shall contemporaneously commence being leased to the Transferee Lessee, provided that such transfer does not result in the breach of any prescribed limits relating to Lease Vehicles set out in the Related Documents. Each Lessee agrees that upon such a transfer of any Lease Vehicle from one Lessee to another Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, such Transferor Lessee relinquishes all rights that it has in such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Agreement. Each Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by either the applicable Transferor Lessee or the applicable Transferee Lessee or on behalf of either such party by any agent or designee of such party.

With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, the Lessor shall on the date specified in Clause 2.6.4 (Timing of Redesignations) redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle, if:

For the avoidance of doubt, any Vehicles acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which is not compliant with the Required Contractual Criteria but for which the purchase price has been paid in full shall be disregarded for the purposes of the limit set out in this paragraph (b)(iv) and further, to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Vehicles acquired by the FleetCos pursuant to this Clause 6.3(b)(iv) and the equivalent clause in each of the other Master Leases is more than EUR 10,000,000, then such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Unpaid Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount; and
(v)    at any time of determination, the aggregate Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles as at that date of determination and to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is more than thirty (30) per cent of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles, such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount and the Dutch FleetCo shall not purchase any further Vehicles pursuant to any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which does not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria until such time that the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles (and the Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount is brought down to nil). For the avoidance of doubt, a breach by the Dutch FleetCo of the obligation to ensure the aggregate Net Book Value of Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles set out in this Sub-Clause (v) shall not on its own constitute a Lease Event of Default or a Leasing Company Amortization Event.
(c)    On any date after the Non-RCC Expiry Date, the Servicer shall not negotiate any Vehicle Purchasing Agreements on behalf of Dutch FleetCo which do not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, this restriction shall not apply to any Vehicles which the Dutch FleetCo may have purchased pursuant to sub-clause (b) above.
(d)    With respect to Non-Program Vehicles only and during the Revolving Period, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate on behalf of the Dutch FleetCo the terms of an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos or other Affiliates of the Dutch FleetCo located in a different jurisdiction than the jurisdiction where the FleetCo is located, for the purchase of Non-Program Vehicles, provided that the following requirements are satisfied at all times:
(i)    the purchase price to be paid for the purchase of the Non-Program Vehicles shall be the Net Book Value (as determined under US GAAP) of such Non-Program Vehicle;
(ii)    an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement for Non-Program Vehicle shall be entered into each time any such Non-Program Vehicle is acquired pursuant to this Sub-Clause, in form and substance substantially the same
27
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







as the template Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement set out in Schedule 5 (Draft Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement);
(iii)    once a Non-Program Vehicle is acquired by the Dutch FleetCo pursuant to an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the same Non-Program Vehicle may not be transferred or sold to any other FleetCo or Opco or other Affiliates of the Dutch FleetCo other than the disposal of such Non-Program vehicle at the expiry of the relevant Lease Term; and
(iv)    following a Level 1 Minimum Liquidity Breach, the Servicer shall not be able to negotiate on behalf of the Dutch FleetCo the terms of an intra-group vehicle purchasing agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos.
(e)    The purchase of vehicles between Fleetcos and Opcos pursuant to the above paragraph shall cease if a Level 1 Minimum Liquidity Test Breach occurs.
6.4    Servicing Standard and Data Protection

In addition, where necessary to enable the Servicer to deliver the services hereunder, for such purposes the Lessor authorises the Servicer to process personal data on behalf of the Lessor in accordance with this Clause 6.4. When the Servicer processes such personal data, the Servicer shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing or personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data.

The Servicer shall answer the reasonable enquiries of the Lessor to enable the Lessor to monitor the Servicer’s compliance with this Clause 6.4 and the Servicer shall not sub-contract its processing of personal data without the prior written consent of the Lessor.

6.6    Servicer’s Monthly Fee
6.6.1    As compensation for the Servicer’s performance of its duties, the Lessor shall pay to or at the direction of the Servicer on each Payment Date (i) a fee (the “Dutch Monthly Servicing Fee”) equal to one-twelfth of the Dutch Servicing Fee and (ii) the reasonable costs and expenses of the Servicer incurred by it during the Related

6.7.5    any breach in the performance of the Servicer’s obligations as Servicer by a Sub-Servicer shall be treated as a breach of this Agreement by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer being entitled to remedy such breach for a period of 14 Business Days of the earlier of:

(B)    receipt by the Servicer of written notice from the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee requiring the same to be remedied; and

6.8.2    On the date hereof, the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Issuer Security Trustee and the Dutch Security Trustee the Servicer Records as of such date, which delivery may be satisfied by the Servicer posting, or causing to be posted, such Servicer Records to a password-protected website made available to the Dutch Security Trustee and the Lessor or by any other reasonable means of electronic transmission (including, without limitation, e-mail, file transfer protocol or otherwise).
6.8.3    On each Business Day following the date hereof, the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Dutch Security Trustee a schedule listing all changes to the Servicer Records in respect of the foregoing Clauses 6.8.1 and 6.8.2 since the preceding Business Day (such schedule as delivered each Business Day, a “Servicer Report”), which delivery may be satisfied by the Servicer posting, or causing to be posted, such Servicer Report to a password-protected website made available to the Dutch Security Trustee and the Lessor or by any other reasonable means of electronic transmission (including, without limitation, email, file transfer protocol or otherwise).
6.9    Powers of Attorney
The Lessor shall from time to time, upon receipt of request by the Servicer, promptly give to the Servicer any powers of attorney or other written authorisations or mandates and instruments as are reasonably necessary to enable the Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, provided that any such powers of attorney or other written authorisations or mandates or instruments must be strictly limited to specific matters. Such powers of attorney shall cease to have effect when the Servicer ceases to act as servicer under this Agreement or when the Lessor terminates such power of attorney.
6.10    Servicer’s Agency Limited
The Servicer shall have no authority by virtue of this Agreement to act for or represent Dutch FleetCo as agent or otherwise, save in respect of those functions and duties which it is expressly authorised to perform and discharge by this Agreement and for the period during which this Agreement so authorises it to perform and discharge those functions and duties.
6.11    Resignation of Servicer
The Servicer may, by giving not less than 14 days’ written notice to Dutch FleetCo and the Dutch Security Trustee, resign as Servicer, provided that, other than where all amounts due and payable under the Dutch Facility Agreement are being repaid in full, a replacement Servicer satisfactory to Dutch FleetCo and the Dutch Security Trustee has been or will, simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s appointment under this Agreement, be appointed (it being understood that it is Dutch FleetCo’s obligation and not the Dutch Security Trustee’s obligation to negotiate and make such appointment).

9    Default and Remedies Therefor
9.1    Events of Default
Any one or more of the following will constitute an event of default (a “Lease Event of Default”) as that term is used herein:
9.1.1    there occurs a default in the payment of any Rent or other amount payable by any Lessee under this Agreement unless, such default in the payment is caused by an administrative or technical error and in such case, payment is made within three (3) Business Days of being due and payable;
9.1.2    any unauthorised assignment or transfer of this Agreement by any Lessee occurs;
9.1.3    the failure of any Lessee to observe or perform any other covenant, condition, agreement or provision hereof, including, but not limited to, usage, and maintenance that in any such case has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice thereof is delivered by the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee to such Lessee or the date an Authorized Officer of such Lessee obtains actual knowledge thereof;
9.1.4    if (i) any representation or warranty made by any Lessee herein is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached or is false or misleading as of the date of the making thereof or any schedule, certificate, financial statement, report, notice or other writing furnished by or on behalf of any Lessee to the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee is false or misleading on the date as of which the facts therein set forth are
34
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







stated or certified, (ii) such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee to the applicable Lessee and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the applicable Lessee learns of such circumstance or condition;
9.1.5    an Event of Bankruptcy occurs with respect to Hertz or with respect to any Lessee;
9.1.6    this Agreement or any portion thereof ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with its terms or as otherwise expressly permitted in the Dutch Related Documents) or a proceeding shall be commenced by any Lessee to establish the invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement, in each case other than with respect to any Lessee that at such time is not leasing any Lease Vehicles hereunder;
9.1.7    a Servicer Default occurs; or
9.1.8    a Liquidation Event occurs.
For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the Dutch Related Documents.
9.2    Effect of Lease Event of Default
If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Clause 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, the Lessee’s right of possession with respect to any Lease Vehicles leased hereunder shall be subject to the Lessor’s option to terminate such right as set forth in Clause 9.3 (Rights of Lessor Upon Lease Event of Default) and 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants).
9.3    Rights of Lessor and Dutch Security Trustee Upon Lease Event of Default
9.3.1    If a Lease Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then the Lessor may proceed by appropriate court action or actions available to it under Dutch law to enforce performance by any Lessee of the applicable covenants and terms of this Agreement or to recover damages for the breach hereof calculated in accordance with Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages).
9.3.2    If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Clause 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, then (i) subject to the terms of this Clause 9.3.2, the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee (acting on the instructions of the Issuer Security Trustee (whose instructions, in turn, have been obtained in accordance with the terms of the Dutch Security Trust Deed and the Issuer Security Trust Deed)) shall have the right to serve notice on the other parties hereto, a “Master Lease Termination Notice”, and following service of such notice shall have the right (a) to terminate any Lessee’s rights of use and possession hereunder of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased hereunder by such
35
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







Lessee, (b) to take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased by any Lessee hereunder, (c) to peaceably enter upon the premises of any Lessee or other premises where Lease Vehicles may be located and take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and thenceforth hold, possess and enjoy the same free from any right of any Lessee, or its successors or assigns, and to use or dispose of such Lease Vehicles for any purpose whatsoever and (d) to direct delivery by the Servicer of the ascription codes (tenaamstellingscode) for all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and (ii) the Lessees, at the request of the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee (whose instructions, in turn, have been obtained in accordance with the terms of the Dutch Security Trust Deed), shall return or cause to be returned all Lease Vehicles to and in accordance with the directions of the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee, as the case may be.
The Lessor may not validly serve a Master Lease Termination Notice unless such decision to serve the Master Lease Termination Notice has been approved by any independent director (as the term may be defined in the relevant constitutional documents of the Lessor) on the board of directors of the Lessor.
9.3.3    Each and every power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Lessor will be in addition to every other power and remedy hereby specifically given or now or hereafter available to it under Dutch law and each and every power and remedy may be exercised from time to time and simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Lessor, provided, however, that the measure of damages recoverable against such Lessee will in any case be calculated in accordance with Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages). All such powers and remedies will be cumulative, and the exercise of one will not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Lessor in the exercise of any such power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any payments due hereunder will impair any such power or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any exercise of any such right or power shall remain subject to each condition expressly specified in any Related Document with respect to such exercise. Any extension of time for payment hereunder or other indulgence duly granted to any Lessee will not otherwise alter or affect the Lessor’s rights or the obligations hereunder of such Lessee. The Lessor’s acceptance of any payment after it will have become due hereunder will not be deemed to alter or affect the Lessor’s rights hereunder with respect to any subsequent payments or defaults therein.
9.4    Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants
9.4.1    If a Liquidation Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Dutch Security Trustee and the Issuer Security Trustee shall have the rights against each Lessee and the Dutch Collateral provided in the Dutch Security Trust Deed and Issuer Security Trust Deed, upon a Liquidation Event, including, in each case, the right to serve a Master Lease Termination Notice on the other parties hereto, following service of such notice shall have the right (i) to terminate any Lessee’s rights of possession hereunder of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased hereunder by such Lessee, (ii) to take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased by any Lessee hereunder, (iii) to peaceably enter upon the premises of any Lessee or other premises where Lease Vehicles may be located and take possession of all
36
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and thenceforth hold, possess and enjoy the same free from any right of any Lessee, or its successors or assigns, and to use such Lease Vehicles for any purpose whatsoever and (iv) to direct delivery by the Servicer of the ascription codes (tenaamstellingscode) for all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles.
9.4.2    During the continuance of a Liquidation Event, the Servicer shall return any or all Lease Vehicles that are Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers in accordance with the instructions of the Lessor. To the extent any Manufacturer fails to accept any such Program Vehicles under the terms of the applicable Manufacturer Program, the Lessor shall have the right to otherwise dispose of such Program Vehicles and to direct the Servicer to dispose of such Program Vehicles in accordance with its instructions.
9.4.3    Notwithstanding the exercise of any rights or remedies pursuant to this Clause 9.4, the Lessor will, nevertheless, have a right to recover from such Lessee any and all amounts (for the avoidance of doubt, as limited by Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages)) as may be then due.
9.4.4    In addition, following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, the Lessor shall have all of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims vis-a-vis each Lessee, necessary or desirable to allow the Dutch Security Trustee to exercise the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims given to the Dutch Security Trustee pursuant to Clause 10.2 (Rights of the Dutch Security Trustee upon Amortization Event or Certain Other Events of Default) of the Dutch Facility Agreement, and each Lessee acknowledges that it has hereby granted to the Lessor all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims granted by the Lessor to the Dutch Security Trustee pursuant to clause 10 of the Dutch Facility Agreement and that the Dutch Security Trustee may act in lieu of the Lessor in the exercise of all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims.
9.4.5    The Dutch Security Trustee may only take possession of, or exercise any of the rights or remedies specified in this Agreement with respect to, such number of Lease Vehicles necessary to generate disposition proceeds in an aggregate amount sufficient to pay the Dutch Note with respect to which a Liquidation Event is then continuing as set forth in the Issuer Facility Agreement, taking into account the receipt of proceeds of all other vehicles being disposed of that have been pledged to secure such Dutch Note.
9.5    Measure of Damages
If a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event occurs and the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee exercises the remedies granted to the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee under Clause 8.6 (Preservation of rights), this Clause 9 (Default and Remedies Therefor) or Clause 10.2 of the Dutch Facility Agreement, the amount that the Lessor shall be permitted to recover from any Lessee as payment shall be equal to:
9.5.1    all Rent for each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee hereunder to the extent accrued and unpaid as of the earlier of the date of the return to the Lessor of such Lease Vehicle or disposition by the Servicer of such Lease Vehicle in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all other payments payable under this Agreement by such Lessee, accrued and unpaid as of such date; plus

Any of the following events will constitute a default of the Servicer (a “Servicer Default”) as that term is used herein:
9.6.1    the failure of the Servicer to comply with or perform any provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document and such failure is, in the opinion of the Dutch Security Trustee, materially prejudicial to the Dutch Noteholder and in the case of a default which is remediable such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice is delivered by the Lessor or the Dutch Security Trustee to the Servicer or the date an Authorized Officer of the Servicer obtains actual knowledge thereof;
9.6.2    an Event of Bankruptcy occurs with respect to the Servicer;
9.6.3    the failure of the Servicer to make any payment when due from it hereunder or under any of the other Dutch Related Documents or to deposit any Dutch Collections received by it into the Dutch Transaction Account when required under the Dutch Related Documents and, in each case, unless such failure is as a result of an administrative or technical error in such case payment has been made within three (3) Business Days;

Each Lessee acknowledges that the Lessor has pledged or will pledge all of its rights under this Agreement to the Dutch Security Trustee pursuant to the Dutch Security Documents. Accordingly, each Lessee agrees that:
14.1.1    upon the occurrence of a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event, the Dutch Security Trustee may exercise (for and on behalf of the Lessor) any right or remedy against such Lessee provided for herein and such Lessee will not interpose as a defence that such claim should have been asserted by the Lessor;
14.1.2    upon the delivery by the Dutch Security Trustee of any notice to such Lessee stating that a Lease Event of Default or a Liquidation Event has occurred, such Lessee will, if so requested by the Dutch Security Trustee, comply with all obligations under this Agreement that are asserted by the Dutch Security Trustee, as the Lessor hereunder, irrespective of whether such Lessee has received any such notice from the Lessor; and
14.1.3    such Lessee acknowledges that, pursuant to this Agreement, it has agreed to make all payments of Rent hereunder (and any other payments hereunder) directly to the Dutch Security Trustee for deposit in the Dutch Transaction Account.

41
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







may, in its discretion, remove such Security and any sum of money that may be paid by the Lessor in release or discharge thereof, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, will be paid by the Lessee of such Lease Vehicle upon demand by the Lessor.
15    Non-Liability of Lessor
As between the Lessor and each Lessee, acceptance for lease of each Lease Vehicle pursuant to Clause 2.2.6 (Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection) shall constitute such Lessee’s acknowledgment and agreement that such Lessee has fully inspected such Lease Vehicle, that such Lease Vehicle is in good order and condition and is of the manufacture, design, specifications and capacity selected by such Lessee and that such Lessee is satisfied that the same is suitable for this use.

Each Lessee specifically waives all rights to make claims against the Lessor and any Lease Vehicle for breach of any warranty of any kind whatsoever, and each Lessee leases each Lease Vehicle “as is”.

The Lessor shall not be liable for any failure to perform any provision hereof resulting from fire or other casualty, natural disaster, riot or other civil unrest, war, terrorism, strike or other labour difficulty, governmental regulation or restriction, or any cause beyond the Lessor’s direct control. In no event shall the Lessor be liable for any inconveniences, loss of profits or any other special, incidental, or consequential damages, whatsoever or howsoever caused (including resulting from any defect in or any theft, damage, loss or failure of any Lease Vehicle).
The Lessor shall not be responsible for any liabilities (including any loss of profit) arising from any delay in the delivery of, or failure to deliver, any Lease Vehicle to any Lessee.

Schedule 3
Required Contractual Criteria for Vehicle Purchasing Agreements
1    Provisions to be applied to all Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to be entered into by Dutch Fleetco
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in substance satisfy the following contractual requirements:
1.1    Parties
Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which Dutch FleetCo is a party may include contractual terms permitting the accession of Dutch OpCo (or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo) as an additional purchaser/seller.
If any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that Dutch OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo) may purchase/sell Vehicles in accordance with the terms of such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the obligations of Dutch FleetCo and Dutch OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo, as applicable) under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in all cases need to be several, and provide that Dutch FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of Dutch OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as applicable).
Alternatively, existing Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which Dutch OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo) is a party may be amended to provide that Dutch FleetCo may accede to such Vehicle Purchasing Agreements (satisfying the Dutch Required Contractual Criteria) and that Dutch FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of Dutch OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation).
1.2    Separate obligations
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will satisfy the following criteria:
(a)    Dutch FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of Dutch OpCo (in its capacity as guarantor, purchaser of vehicles or otherwise) thereunder; and
(b)    to the extent that Dutch OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo) enters into or is a party to any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreements with the same Manufacturer/Dealer (each such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement to which Dutch OpCo or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo is a party being a “Dutch OpCo Specific Agreement”), Dutch FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of Dutch OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as the case may be) under such Dutch OpCo Specific Agreement.
1.3    Volume rebates etc.
A Vehicle Purchasing Agreement may provide that any bonus payment or other amount (howsoever described) payable or to be made available by a Manufacturer/Dealer as a result of Dutch FleetCo (or Dutch FleetCo and/or Dutch OpCo (and/or any other relevant Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation) under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and/or any Dutch OpCo Specific Agreement, as applicable) meeting any minimum vehicle purchase
56
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







level in that relevant year, be payable to or for the account of Dutch OpCo (rather than Dutch FleetCo). For the avoidance of doubt, Dutch FleetCo may however take the benefit of reductions applied to purchase prices applicable to vehicles as a result of any such minimum vehicle purchase levels being reached.
Notwithstanding the foregoing where a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that in the event that any minimum vehicle purchase level in the relevant year is not met:
(a)    any bonus, payment, benefit or reductions applied to purchase prices on Vehicles purchased by Dutch FleetCo or other amount (howsoever described) is recoverable by or repayable to a Manufacturer/Dealer; or
(b)    any penalty or other amount (howsoever described) is payable to such Manufacturer/Dealer,
such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement shall provide that, in each case, such amounts will only be reclaimed from, payable by or otherwise recoverable from Dutch OpCo or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo.
1.4    Confidentiality and public disclosure of terms of Vehicle Purchasing
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will need to be disclosed to the Dutch Security Trustee and possibly other providers of credit or liquidity enhancement to the Transaction.
1.5    Non-petition
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable and unconditional covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer that such Manufacturer/Dealer shall not be entitled and shall not initiate or take any step in connection with:
(a)    liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency (or any similar or analogous proceedings or circumstances) of Dutch FleetCo; or
(b)    the appointment of an insolvency officer in relation to Dutch FleetCo or any of its assets whatsoever,
provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling one year and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
1.6    Limited recourse
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer that such Manufacturer/Dealer shall not be entitled to, and shall not, initiate or take any step in connection with the commencement of legal proceedings (howsoever described) to recover any amount owed to it by Dutch FleetCo under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement; this covenant will be unconditional except that the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer may commence legal proceedings to the extent that the only relief sought against Dutch FleetCo pursuant to such proceedings is the re-possession of relevant Vehicle(s) pursuant to applicable retention of title provisions provided for under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling one year and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
57
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







2    Provisions to be applied to all Manufacturer Programs to be entered into by a FleetCo
Each Manufacturer Program will in substance satisfy the following additional contractual requirements:
2.1    Assignment and transfers
Each Manufacturer Program will contain terms that permit Dutch FleetCo to assign by way of security or pledge any of its rights under such agreement to the Dutch Security Trustee. Any such right to grant security to the relevant Dutch Security Trustee must be unrestricted. Unless pursuant to an Intra-Group Transfer (as defined below) by a Manufacturer (which shall not require consent from Dutch FleetCo), each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer may not assign, transfer or novate its obligations under such agreement without the prior written consent of Dutch FleetCo. Dutch FleetCo shall not provide such consent unless the Manufacturer/Dealer enters into a guarantee materially in the form set out in Schedule 4 (Draft Transfer and Joint and Several Liability Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Program) or accepts joint and several liability in respect of the transferred obligations substantially on the terms set out in Schedule 4 (Draft Transfer and Joint and Several Liability Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Program). For the purposes hereof, an “Intra-Group Transfer” means an assignment, transfer or novation by a Manufacturer of its obligations under a Manufacturer Program to an Affiliate of such Manufacturer which would satisfy the definition of “Investment Grade Manufacturer” upon such Affiliate becoming a Manufacturer. For the avoidance of doubt, Manufacturers /Dealers may assign their rights under Manufacturer Programs without the prior written consent of Dutch FleetCo.
2.2    Set-off
Each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Manufacturer Program or under applicable law to set off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by Dutch FleetCo in relation to Vehicles ordered by (but not delivered to) Dutch FleetCo by such Manufacturer/Dealer under that Manufacturer Program, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Dutch FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program, provided that each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement entered into or renewed on or after the Closing Date will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or under applicable law to set off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by Dutch FleetCo under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Dutch FleetCo under that Manufacturer Program or any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreement. Save and except in relation to any Manufacturer Program with Daimler AG, and/or any of their respective Affiliates or successors or any corporation into which such entities may be merged or converted or with which they may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation of such entities (“Daimler Entities”) or any Dealers or agents (or Affiliates or successors thereof) selling Vehicles manufactured or purchased from the Daimler Entities if such Manufacturer Program does not provide for waiver of set-off in accordance with this paragraph, in which case such amounts may be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from Dutch FleetCo.
58
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manufacturer/Dealers will be entitled to set off any amount owed by Dutch FleetCo in respect of turn-back related damages against any amount of Repurchase Price owed by it to Dutch FleetCo. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to procure that each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives all rights to set-off (however arising) any amount:
(a)    owed to it by Dutch OpCo under such Manufacturer Program; or
(b)    owed to it by Dutch OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo) under any other agreement (including any Dutch OpCo Specific Agreement),
in any such case against amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Dutch FleetCo under the relevant Manufacturer Program.
2.3    Manufacturer’s/Dealer’s obligations to be ‘unconditional’
No Manufacturer Program may contain terms that provide that the Repurchase Obligations of the Manufacturer/Dealer are conditional in any respect other than, in relation to (a) a force majeure event1 or (b) compliance with applicable turn-back procedures (including any Program Minimum Term or Program Maximum Term) and/or (c) turn-back standards in relation to the condition of the relevant Vehicle. For the avoidance of doubt, no Manufacturer Program may provide that the obligations of the Manufacturer/Dealer thereunder are conditional upon:
(a)    any minimum number of Vehicles being purchased: (i) by Dutch FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program; and/or (ii) by Dutch OpCo or any other Person under such Manufacturer Program or any Dutch OpCo Specific Agreement; or
(b)    the solvency of Dutch FleetCo; or
(c)    the solvency of any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Dutch FleetCo.
2.4    Termination provisions
To the extent that a Manufacturer/Dealer requires express termination provisions to be included in any Manufacturer Program, such Manufacturer Program may provide that a Manufacturer/Dealer is entitled (upon expiry of a predetermined notice period or otherwise) to terminate such agreement before its scheduled expiry date upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g. liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, failure to pay, late payment, partial payment, breach or serious breach of obligations, or any similar or analogous events); provided always that the Manufacturer/Dealer shall not under any circumstances have the right to terminate its obligations (subject to and in accordance with any eligibility criteria and Program Minimum Term or Program Maximum Term) to repurchase (or, if applicable to perform its guaranteed obligations thereunder) in respect of any Vehicle shipped to Dutch FleetCo or its order prior to the termination of such Manufacturer Program.
1    For these purposes, a “force majeure event” will be constituted by any event which (a) was not foreseen by the parties, (b) is outside their control and could not have been avoided by taking due care or by compliance in all material respects with obligations under the VPA and (c) prevents performance of the obligations of one or more parties under the contract.
59
A37279892 WEIL:\96789896\1\52396.0010







2.5    Retention of title in favour of Dutch FleetCo
The Manufacturer Program entered into with the Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers will, where credit terms are made available to the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer (in relation to the payment by it of applicable repurchase prices for Vehicles) provide that title to the relevant Vehicle will remain with Dutch FleetCo until the sale proceeds are received by Dutch FleetCo. In practice, Dutch FleetCo may return the registration documents for a Vehicle when it is turned back to such Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers.

The agreement of the Lessor to commence leasing any Lease Vehicle to any Lessee hereunder is subject to the following conditions precedent being satisfied at the time the Lessor orders such Lease Vehicles and will continue to be satisfied when the Lease Vehicles are delivered to the French FleetCo or to its order:
(i)    No Default. No Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date for such Lease Vehicle or would result from the leasing of such Lease Vehicle hereunder, and no Potential Lease Event of Default with respect to any event or condition specified in Sub-Clause 9.1.1 (Events of Default), Sub-Clause 9.1.5 (Events of Default) or Sub-Clause 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall have occurred and be continuing on the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date for such Lease Vehicle or would result from the leasing of such Lease Vehicle hereunder;

3
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


Lease Vehicle has been delivered to or (as the case may be) is available for collection by French FleetCo.
(d)    Lease Vehicle Purchases and Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedules
(i)    Each Lessee may from time to time request that the Lessor acquires vehicles for the purpose of leasing such vehicles in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (which request may be amended or cancelled in such Lessee’s sole discretion before the delivery of the relevant Vehicle provided that no French Leasing Company Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, and provided further that the Lessor shall only be obliged to accept such amendment or cancellation subject to being able to make an amendment or cancellation to the corresponding vehicle order under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or Sale Agreement and, to the extent that the Lessor will incur any Liability as a result thereof and the relevant Manufacturer or Dealer confirms that such a Liability is due, the Lessor having received full payment from the Lessee for any such Liabilities). The Lessor may, in its absolute discretion, and provided that the conditions precedent in Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) above have been satisfied or waived by the French Security Trustee, order the relevant vehicles in accordance with the terms of the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement.
(ii)    Any order of Vehicles will be made by French Opco acting in its capacity as French Servicer on behalf of French Fleetco. The Lessor shall not incur any Liability of any type whatsoever if it does not or cannot accept any order of new Vehicle (including if the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are satisfied).
(iii)    Before making any order of Vehicle, the French Servicer shall verify that the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are or will be complied with. Any waiver of a condition precedent will require the prior written consent of the French Security Trustee.
(iv)    Each Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessor one or more schedules identifying the vehicles which the Lessor has acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement following a request by such Lessee, which schedules shall include the Basic Lease Vehicle Information (each such schedule, a “Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule”). Each Lessee hereby agrees that each such delivery of a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule shall be deemed hereunder to constitute a representation and warranty by such Lessee, to and in favor of the Lessor, that each condition precedent to the leasing of the Lease Vehicles identified in such Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule has been satisfied as of the date on which the relevant Lease Vehicles were ordered and delivered.
(v)    During the period from the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date in respect of a Lease Vehicle to the date that such Lease Vehicle is first identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule, the existence of a lease between the Lessor and a Lessee in respect of that Lease Vehicle shall be evidenced and determined by reference to the records of the Lessor (which such records shall be held to be correct for all purposes unless manifestly erroneous).
(vi)    The Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule for each Lease Vehicle to be leased hereunder on the Closing Date shall be substantially in the form as set out in Schedule VIII (Form of Initial Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule).
(e)    The Lessee shall indemnify the Lessor in respect of any Liabilities which the Lessor may suffer in circumstances where the Lessor has ordered a Vehicle or Vehicles in accordance with the terms of the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and (i) the Lessee has cancelled or amended the aforementioned Vehicle or Vehicles and/or (ii) the Lessor has accepted an order but subsequently is made aware of an event which would give rise to a Master Lease Termination Notice being served and rejects such notice, and/or (iii) a lease is not entered into by the date on which the Lessor pays the purchase price for such Vehicle or Vehicles (including, without limitation, where a lease is not entered into because the conditions precedent in Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) above are not satisfied).
4
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


(f)    Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection.
(i)    Subject to Sub-Clause 2.1(f)(ii) below, with respect to any vehicle identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule and made available for lease by the Lessor to any Lessee, such Lessee shall have the right to inspect such vehicle within five (5) days of receipt (or such shorter period as may be contemplated under the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) (the “Inspection Period”) of such vehicle and either accept or, if such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, reject such vehicle; provided that, such Lessee shall be deemed to have accepted such vehicle as a Lease Vehicle unless it has notified the Lessor in writing that such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle during the Inspection Period (the delivery date of such written notice, the “Rejection Date”). If such Lessee timely notifies the Lessor that such Vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, then such Non-conforming Lease Vehicle with respect to which such Lessee has so notified the Lessor shall be a “Rejected Vehicle”.
(ii)    Notwithstanding Sub-Clause 2.1(f)(i) above, a Lessee will only be entitled to reject any Lease Vehicle delivered to it by or on behalf of the Lessor (A) if the Lessor is itself entitled to reject such Lease Vehicle under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement pursuant to which such Vehicle was ordered and (B) subject to the same conditions (to the extent applicable) as to rejection as may be applicable to the Lessor under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement in respect of such Vehicle.
(iii)    The Lessor shall cause the Servicer to dispose of a Rejected Vehicle described in sub-paragraph (i) above (including by returning such Rejected Vehicle to the seller thereof in accordance with the terms of the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) in accordance with Sub-Clause 6.1 (Servicer functions with respect to Lease Vehicle Returns, Disposition and Invoicing).
2.2    Certain Transfers
(a)    Sales to Lessee. Unless a Lease Event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Lessor and the relevant Lessee may from time to time, in their absolute discretion, agree for the Lessor to sell a Lease Vehicle during such Lease Vehicle’s Vehicle Term to the relevant Lessee for an amount equal to the net book value under GAAP of such Lease Vehicle.
(b)    Intra-Lease Transfers. From time to time, a particular Lessee (the “Transferor Lessee”) may desire to cease leasing a Lease Vehicle hereunder and another Lessee (the “Transferee Lessee”) may desire to commence leasing such Lease Vehicle hereunder. Upon delivery by such Lessees to the Lessor of written notice identifying by VIN each Lease Vehicle to be so transferred from such Transferor Lessee to such Transferee Lessee (such notice, an “Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule”), each Lease Vehicle identified in such Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule shall cease to be leased by the Transferor Lessee and shall contemporaneously commence being leased to the Transferee Lessee, provided that such transfer does not result in the breach of any prescribed limits relating to Lease Vehicles set out in the Related Documents. Each Lessee agrees that upon such a transfer of any Lease Vehicle from one Lessee to another Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, such Transferor Lessee relinquishes all rights that it has in such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Agreement. Each Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by either the applicable Transferor Lessee or the applicable Transferee Lessee or on behalf of either such party by any agent or designee of such party. In accordance with article 1216 of the French Code civil, the Lessor hereby agrees in advance to any transfer of lease agreement between a Transferor Lessee and a Transferee Lessee.
2.3    Transfer of Risks
As of the relevant Vehicle Lease Commencement Date, and until the later of:
(a)    the Vehicle Lease Expiration Date; or
(b)    such time at which the Lessee and the relevant sub-lessee (if any) no longer possesses such Lease Vehicle and the risk of loss, damage, theft, taking, destruction, attachment,
5
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


seizure, confiscation or requisition with respect to such Lease Vehicle has been transferred to any third party,
the Lessee assumes and bears the risk of loss, damage, theft, taking, destruction, attachment, seizure, confiscation or requisition with respect to such Lease Vehicle, however caused or occasioned, and all other risks and liabilities relating to the Lease Vehicle.
2.4    Return
(a)    Lessee Right to Return. Any Lessee may return any Lease Vehicle (other than any Lease Vehicle that has experienced a Casualty or become an Ineligible Vehicle) then leased by such Lessee at any time prior to such Lease Vehicle’s French Master Lease Scheduled Expiration Date to the Servicer at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the Servicer; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Vehicle Term for such Lease Vehicle will continue until the Vehicle Lease Expiration Date thereof, notwithstanding the prior return of such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Sub-Clause 2.4(a) (Lessee Right to Return).
(b)    Lessee Obligation to Return.
(i)    Each Lessee shall return each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee on or prior to such Lease Vehicle’s French Master Lease Scheduled Expiration Date to the Servicer at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the Servicer (taking into account transportation costs and expected realizable disposition proceeds).
(ii)    Each Lessee shall return each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee upon the Vehicle Lease Expiration Date to the Lessor unless a Disposition Date has occurred in respect of such Lease Vehicle.
2.5    Redesignation of Vehicles
(a)    Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations. With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, the Lessor shall on the date specified in Sub-Clause 2.5(d) (Timing of Redesignations) redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle, if:
(i)    a Manufacturer Event of Default is continuing with respect to the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle as of such date; or
(ii)    as of any such date occurring after the Minimum Program Term End Date with respect to such Lease Vehicle, such Lease Vehicle was returned as of such date pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturer Program with respect to such Lease Vehicle, the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle would not be obligated to pay a repurchase price for such Lease Vehicle, or guarantee the disposition proceeds to be received for such Vehicle, in each case in an amount at least equal to (1) the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (2) the Final Base Rent that would be payable in respect of such Lease Vehicle, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date for such Lease Vehicle, minus (3) the Excess Mileage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (4) the Excess Damage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (5) the Pre-VLCD Program Vehicle Depreciation Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (6) the Program Vehicle Depreciation Assumption True-Up Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date.
(b)    Optional Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations. In addition to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) and without limitation thereto, with respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, such Lessee may redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle upon written notice to the Lessor (which written notice may be delivered electronically and may be delivered
6
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


directly by such Lessee or on its behalf by any agent or designee of such Lessee); provided that, such Lessee shall not redesignate any Program Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to this Sub-Clause 2.5(b) (Optional Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) if, after giving effect to such redesignation, an Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency would exist, unless such redesignation would decrease the amount of such Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency.
(c)    Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignations. With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Non-Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, if such Lease Vehicle was previously designated as a Program Vehicle, then such Lessee may redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle upon written notice to the Lessor (which written notice may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by such Lessee or on its behalf by any agent or designee of such Lessee); provided that, such Lessee may not redesignate any such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle if such Lease Vehicle would then be required to be redesignated as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) after designating such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle.
(d)    Timing of Redesignations. With respect to any redesignation to be effected pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations), such redesignation shall occur as of the first calendar day of the calendar month following the date on which the applicable event or condition described in Sub-Clause 2.5(a)(i) or (ii) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) occurs. With respect to any redesignation to be effected pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(b) (Optional Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) or 2.5(c) (Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignations), such redesignation shall occur as of the first calendar day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month of the date written notice was delivered by the applicable Lessee of such redesignation.
(e)    Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignation Payments. With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is redesignated as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) or Sub-Clause 2.5(b) (Optional Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations), the Lessee of such Lease Vehicle as of the close of business on the date of such redesignation shall pay to the Lessor on the Payment Date following the effective date of such redesignation, as determined in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.5(d) (Timing of Redesignations), an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle over the Market Value of such Lease Vehicle, in each case, as of the date of such redesignation (such excess, if any, for such Lease Vehicle, a “Redesignation to Non-Program Amount”).
(f)    Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignation Payments. With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is redesignated as a Program Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(c) (Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignations), the Lessor shall pay to the Lessee of such Lease Vehicle on the Payment Date following the effective date of such redesignation, as determined in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.5(d) (Timing of Redesignations), an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle (as of the date of such redesignation and calculated assuming that such Lease Vehicle had never been designated as a Non-Program Vehicle) over the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle (as of the date of such redesignation but without giving effect to such Lease Vehicle’s redesignation as a Program Vehicle) (such excess, if any, for such Lease Vehicle and such redesignation, the “Redesignation to Program Amount”); provided that,
(i)    no payment shall be required to be made and no payment may be made by the Lessor pursuant to this Sub-Clause 2.5(f) (Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignation Payments) to the extent that an Amortization Event or a Potential Amortization Event exists or would be caused by such payment;
(ii)    the amount of any such payment to be made by the Lessor on any such date shall be capped at and be paid from (and the obligation of the Lessor to make such payment on such date shall be limited to) the amount of funds available to the Lessor on such date; and

2.6    Hell-or-High-Water Lease
Each Lessee’s obligation to pay all rent and other sums hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be subject to any abatement, setoff (except as required under Sub-Clause 4.8(f) below), counterclaim, deduction or reduction for any reason whatsoever. The obligations and liabilities of each Lessee hereunder shall in no way be released, discharged or otherwise affected (except as may be expressly provided herein) for any reason, including without limitation:
(i)    any defect in the condition, merchantability, quality or fitness for use of the Lease Vehicles or any part thereof;

(a)    it receives the approval of the French Security Trustee acting at the written direction of the Issuer Security Trustee, (which approval shall be obtained in accordance with the terms of the French Security Trust Deed and the Issuer Security Trust Deed), itself acting at the written direction of the Required Noteholders; and
(b)    subject to usual qualifications or reservations, the Servicer provides the French Security Trustee with satisfactory legal, taxation and accounting reports or opinions establishing that the deviation will not affect the insolvency remoteness of French FleetCo nor materially increase the tax liability of French FleetCo.
(b)    During the period from (and including) the Fourth Amendment Date until the Non-RCC Expiry Date, in circumstances where Non-Program Vehicles are to be acquired from a Dealer or an Auction Seller where it is not reasonably practicable to enter into a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement with such Dealer or Auction Seller that complies with the Required Contractual Criteria, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate with such Dealer or Auction Seller the terms of a new Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or Vehicle Purchasing Agreements on behalf of the French FleetCo without being required to comply with the Required Contractual Criteria, provided that each of the following requirements is met:
(i)    the number of Vehicles acquired pursuant to such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or Vehicle Purchasing Agreements with a single Dealer in a single or series of related transactions or Auction Seller in a single or series of transactions in the same auction process shall not exceed 50 Non-Program Vehicles;
(ii)    the purchase price of the Vehicle(s) shall be paid to the relevant Dealer or Auction Seller in full by the date falling no later than five (5) Business Days from the date of (A) in respect of the purchase from a Dealer, delivery of the relevant Vehicles(s) and (B) in respect of a purchase from an Auction Seller, the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and in each case, to the extent that the purchase price has not been paid in full by the date falling no later than five (5) Business Days in accordance with paragraphs (A) and (B) above, such Vehicle(s) will not constitute Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles for the purposes of this Agreement;
(iii)    the Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that there is an absolute transfer of title of the Non-Program Vehicle from the relevant Dealer or Auction Seller to the French FleetCo, immediately following the payment of the purchase price of the Non-Program Vehicle, and the French FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any obligations of any nature in favour of such Dealer or Auction Seller under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement following such payment;
(iv)    at any time of determination, the aggregate Net Book Value of such Vehicles where the Vehicles have been delivered to or to the order of the French FleetCo by an Auction Seller or Dealer pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement but for which the full purchase price payable by or on behalf of the French FleetCo has not yet been paid by or on behalf of the French FleetCo, shall in aggregate with the Net Book Value of such Vehicles acquired by the relevant FleetCo pursuant to the equivalent clause in each of the other Master Leases, be no more
21
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


than EUR 10,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, any Vehicles acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which is not compliant with the Required Contractual Criteria but for which the purchase price has been paid in full shall be disregarded for the purposes of the limit set out in this paragraph (b)(iv) and further, to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Vehicles acquired by the FleetCos pursuant to this Clause 6.3(b)(iv) and the equivalent clause in each of the other Master Leases is more than EUR 10,000,000, then such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Unpaid Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount; and
(v)    at any time of determination, the aggregate Net Book Value of all Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles as at that date of determination and to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is more than thirty (30) per cent of the aggregate Net Book Value of all such Eligible Vehicles, such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount and the French FleetCo shall not purchase any further Vehicles pursuant to any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which does not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria until such time that the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles (and the Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount is brought down to nil). For the avoidance of doubt, a breach by the French Fleetco of the obligation to ensure the aggregate Net Book Value of Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles set out in this Sub-Clause (v) shall not on its own constitute a Lease Event of Default or a Leasing Company Amortization Event.
(c)    On any date after the Non-RCC Expiry Date, the Servicer shall not negotiate any Vehicle Purchasing Agreements on behalf of French FleetCo which do not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, this restriction shall not apply to any Vehicles which the French FleetCo may have purchased pursuant to sub-clause (b) above.
(d)    With respect to Non-Program Vehicles only and during the Revolving Period, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate on behalf of the French FleetCo the terms of an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos or other Affiliates of the French FleetCo located in a different jurisdiction than the jurisdiction where the FleetCo is located, for the purchase of Non-Program Vehicles, provided that the following requirements are satisfied at all times:
(i)    the purchase price to be paid for the purchase of the Non-Program Vehicles shall be the Net Book Value (as determined under US GAAP) of such Non-Program Vehicle;
(ii)    an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement for Non-Program Vehicle shall be entered into each time any such Non-Program Vehicle is acquired pursuant to this Sub-Clause, in form and substance substantially the same as the template Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement set out in Schedule V (Draft Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement);
(iii)    once a Non-Program Vehicle is acquired by the French FleetCo pursuant to an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the same Non-Program Vehicle may not be transferred or sold to any other FleetCo or Opco or other Affiliates of the French FleetCo other than the disposal of such Non-Program vehicle at the expiry of the relevant Lease Term, and
(iv)    following a Level 1 Minimum Liquidity Breach, the Servicer shall not be able to negotiate on behalf of the French FleetCo the terms of an intra-group vehicle purchasing agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos.

9    DEFAULT AND REMEDIES THEREFOR
9.1    Events of Default
Any one or more of the following will constitute an event of default (a “Lease Event of Default”) as that term is used herein:
9.1.1    there occurs a default in the payment of any Rent or other amount payable by any Lessee under this Agreement unless such default in the payment is caused by an administrative or technical error and in such case, payment is made within three (3) Business Days of being due and payable;
9.1.2    any unauthorized assignment or transfer of this Agreement by any Lessee occurs;
9.1.3    the failure of any Lessee to observe or perform any other covenant, condition, agreement or provision hereof, including, but not limited to, usage, and maintenance that in any such case has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice thereof is delivered by the Lessor or the French Security Trustee to such Lessee or the date an Authorized Officer of such Lessee obtains actual knowledge thereof;
9.1.4    if (i) any representation or warranty made by any Lessee herein is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached or is false or misleading as of the date of the making thereof or any schedule, certificate, financial statement, report, notice, or other writing furnished by or on behalf of any Lessee to the Lessor or the French Security Trustee is false or misleading on the date as of which the facts therein set forth are stated or certified, (ii) such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the
28
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


French Security Trustee to the applicable Lessee and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the applicable Lessee learns of such circumstance or condition;

9.1.7    a Servicer Default occurs; or
9.1.8    a Liquidation Event occurs.
For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the French Related Documents.
9.2    Effect of Lease Event of Default. If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Sub-Clauses 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, the Lessee’s right of possession with respect to any Lease Vehicles leased hereunder shall be subject to the Lessor’s option to terminate such right as set forth in Sub-Clauses 9.3 (Rights of Lessor Upon Lease Event of Default) and 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants).
9.3    Rights of Lessor and French Security Trustee Upon Lease Event of Default
9.3.1    If a Lease Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then the Lessor may proceed by appropriate court action or actions, at law to enforce performance by any Lessee of the applicable covenants and terms of this Agreement or to recover damages for the breach hereof calculated in accordance with Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages).
9.3.2    If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Sub-Clause 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, then (i) subject to the terms of this Clause 9.3.2, the Lessor or the French Security Trustee (acting on the written instructions of the Issuer Security Trustee (whose instructions, in turn, have been obtained in accordance with the terms of the French Security Trust Deed and the Issuer Security Trust Deed)) shall have the right to serve notice on the other parties hereto, a “Master Lease Termination Notice”, and following service of such notice shall have the right to (a) to terminate any Lessee’s rights of use and possession hereunder of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased hereunder by such Lessee, (b) to take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased by any Lessee hereunder and (c) to peaceably enter upon the premises of any Lessee or other premises where Lease Vehicles may be located and take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and thenceforth hold, possess and enjoy the same free from any right of any Lessee, or its successors or assigns, and to use or dispose of such Lease Vehicles for any purpose whatsoever and (ii) the Lessees, at the request of the Lessor or the French Security Trustee, shall return or cause to be returned all Lease Vehicles to and in accordance with the directions of the Lessor or the French Security Trustee as the case may be.

All such powers and remedies will be cumulative, and the exercise of one will not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Lessor in the exercise of any such power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any payments due hereunder will impair any such
29
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


power or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any exercise of any such right or power shall remain subject to each condition expressly specified in any Related Document with respect to such exercise. Any extension of time for payment hereunder or other indulgence duly granted to any Lessee will not otherwise alter or affect the Lessor’s rights or the obligations hereunder of such Lessee. The Lessor’s acceptance of any payment after it will have become due hereunder will not be deemed to alter or affect the Lessor’s rights hereunder with respect to any subsequent payments or defaults therein.
9.3.4    In addition, following the occurrence of an Lease Event of Default, the Lessor shall have all of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims vis-à-vis each Lessee, necessary or desirable to allow the French Security Trustee to exercise the rights, remedies, power, privileges and claims given to the French Security Trustee pursuant to Sub-Clause 11.2 (Rights of the French Security Trustee upon Amortization Event or Certain Other Events of Default) of the French Facility Agreement, and each Lessee acknowledges that it has hereby granted to the Lessor all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims granted by the Lessor to the French Security Trustee pursuant to Clause 11 (Amortization Events and Remedies) of the French Facility Agreement and that the French Security Trustee may act in lieu of the Lessor in the exercise of all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims.

(b)    During the continuance of a Liquidation Event, the Servicer shall return any or all Lease Vehicles that are Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers in accordance with the instructions of the Lessor.

(c)    Notwithstanding the exercise of any rights or remedies pursuant to this Sub-Clause 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants), the Lessor will, nevertheless, have a right to recover from such Lessee any and all amounts (for the avoidance of doubt, as limited by Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages)) as may be then due.
(d)    In addition, following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, the Lessor shall have all of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims vis-a-vis each Lessee, necessary or desirable to allow the French Security Trustee to exercise the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims given to the French Security Trustee pursuant to Sub-Clause 11.2 (Rights of the French Security Trustee upon Amortization Event or Certain Other Events of Default) of the French Facility Agreement, and each Lessee acknowledges that it has hereby granted to the Lessor all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims granted by the Lessor to the French Security Trustee pursuant to Clause 11 (Amortization Events and Remedies) of the French Facility Agreement and that the French Security Trustee may act in lieu of the Lessor in the exercise of all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims.

9.6    Servicer Default
Any of the following events will constitute a default of the Servicer (a “Servicer Default”) as that term is used herein:
(i)    the failure of the Servicer to comply with or perform any provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document and such failure is, in the opinion of the French Security Trustee materially prejudicial to the French Secured Parties and in the case of a default which is remediable, such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice is delivered by the Lessor or the French Security Trustee to the Servicer or the date an Authorized Officer of the Servicer obtains actual knowledge thereof;

(iii)    the failure of the Servicer to make any payment when due from it hereunder or under any of the other French Related Documents or to deposit any French Collections received by it into the French Transaction Account when required under the French Related Documents and, in each case, unless such failure is as a result of an administrative or technical error in such case payment has been made within three (3) Business Days;

31
WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for at least fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the French Security Trustee to the Servicer and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the Servicer obtains actual knowledge of such circumstance or condition;
(v)    a Lease Event of Default occurs which gives rise to a right for the Lessor or the French Security Trustee to serve a Master Lease Termination Notice; or

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Servicer Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Servicer Default ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Servicer Default will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the French Related Documents.

Each party to this Agreement agrees with and acknowledges to each of French FleetCo and the French Security Trustee that, notwithstanding any other provision of any French Related Document, all obligations of French FleetCo to such entity are limited in recourse as set out below:
(c)        Priority of payments. All payments to be made by French FleetCo hereunder to any party will be made only from and to the extent of the sums payable to such party in accordance with the terms of the French Priority of Payments. Accordingly, each party expressly and irrevocably waives any remedy against French FleetCo (acting in whatever capacity) in connection with the payment of any amounts that may be due to it under any Related Document otherwise than up to the amounts payable to it in accordance with the terms of the French Priority of Payments;
(d)        Deferral. Any liability remaining unpaid after application of the French Priority of Payments shall automatically be deferred and be payable (exigible) on the immediately following Payment Date (except if a different rule in relation to deferred payments is set out in the agreement from which the relevant unpaid liability arises) until the Legal Final Payment Date, in accordance with the French Priority of Payments applicable on that day but in priority to the amounts due on that date and having the same or similar ranking as the deferred amount (unless no such liability as the deferred liability is due on that day in which case such deferred liability will be paid in priority to all other liabilities due on such date), commencing with the oldest deferred amount outstanding and progressing to each next older outstanding deferred amount until such time as no deferred amount remains outstanding.
(e)    Insufficient Recoveries. If, or to the extent that, after allocation of all amounts in accordance with the foregoing and, as the case may be, after the French Collateral has been as fully as practicable realised and the proceeds thereof have been applied in accordance with the French Priority of Payments, such proceeds are insufficient to pay or discharge amounts due from French FleetCo to the French Secured Parties or any party to this Agreement in full for any reason, French FleetCo will have no liability to pay or otherwise make good any such insufficiency.
The provisions of this Sub-Clause 15.3 (Limited recourse in respect of French FleetCo) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Irrespective of whether or not this Sub-Clause 15.3 (Limited recourse in respect of French FleetCo) is incorporated into any other Related Document, the Parties agree that this Sub-Clause 15.3 (Limited recourse in respect of French FleetCo) shall apply to all Related Documents to which the French FleetCo is a party to the fullest extent possible.

SCHEDULE III
REQUIRED CONTRACTUAL CRITERIA FOR VEHICLE PURCHASING AGREEMENTS

1    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL VEHICLE PURCHASING AGREEMENTS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY FRENCH FLEETCO
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in substance satisfy the following contractual requirements:
1.1    Parties
Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which French FleetCo is a party may include contractual terms permitting the accession of French OpCo (or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo) as an additional purchaser/seller.
If any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that French OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo) may purchase/sell Vehicles in accordance with the terms of such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the obligations of French FleetCo and French OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo, as applicable) under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in all cases need to be several (non solidaires), and provide that French FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of French OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as applicable).
Alternatively, existing Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which French OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo) is a party may be amended to provide that French FleetCo may accede to such Vehicle Purchasing Agreements (satisfying the French Required Contractual Criteria) and that French FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of French OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation).
1.2    Separate obligations
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will satisfy the following criteria:
(a)    French FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of French OpCo (in its capacity as guarantor, purchaser of vehicles or otherwise) thereunder; and
(b)    to the extent that French OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo) enters into or is a party to any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreements with the same Manufacturer /Dealer (each such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement to which French OpCo or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo is a party being a “French OpCo Specific Agreement”), French FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of French OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as the case may be) under such French OpCo Specific Agreement.
1.3    Volume Rebates etc.
A Vehicle Purchasing Agreement may provide that any bonus payment or other amount (howsoever described) payable or to be made available by a Manufacturer /Dealer as a result of French FleetCo (or French FleetCo and/or French OpCo (and/or any other relevant Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation) under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and/or any French OpCo Specific Agreement, as applicable) meeting any minimum vehicle purchase level in that relevant year, be payable to or for the account of French OpCo (rather than French FleetCo). For the avoidance of doubt, French FleetCo may however take the benefit of reductions applied to purchase prices applicable to vehicles as a result of any such minimum vehicle purchase levels being reached.
Notwithstanding the foregoing where a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that in the event that any minimum vehicle purchase level in the relevant year is not met:

WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


(a)    any bonus, payment, benefit or reductions applied to purchase prices on Vehicles purchased by French FleetCo or other amount (howsoever described) is recoverable by or repayable to a Manufacturer y/Dealer; or
(b)    any penalty or other amount (howsoever described) is payable to such Manufacturer /Dealer,
such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement shall provide that, in each case, such amounts will only be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from French OpCo or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo.
1.4    Confidentiality and public disclosure of terms of Vehicle Purchasing
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will need to be disclosed to the French Security Trustee and possibly other Enhancement Providers.
1.5    Non-petition
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable and unconditional covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer /Dealer that such Manufacturer /Dealer shall not be entitled and shall not initiate or take any step in connection with:
(a)    liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency (or any similar or analogous proceedings or circumstances) of French FleetCo; or
(b)    the appointment of an insolvency officer in relation to French FleetCo or any of its assets whatsoever,
provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling eighteen months and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
1.6    Limited recourse
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer /Dealer that such Manufacturer /Dealer shall not be entitled to, and shall not, initiate or take any step in connection with the commencement of legal proceedings (howsoever described) to recover any amount owed to it by French FleetCo under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement; this covenant will be unconditional except that the relevant Manufacturer /Dealer may commence legal proceedings to the extent that the only relief sought against French FleetCo pursuant to such proceedings is the re-possession of relevant Vehicle(s) pursuant to applicable retention of title provisions provided for under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling eighteen months and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
2    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL MANUFACTURER PROGRAMS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY A FLEETCO
Each Manufacturer Program will in substance satisfy the following additional contractual requirements:
2.1    Assignment and transfers
Each Manufacturer Program will contain terms that permit French FleetCo to assign by way of security or pledge any of its rights under such agreement to the French Secured Parties. Any such right to grant security to the French Secured Parties must be unrestricted. Unless pursuant to an Intra-Group Transfer (as defined below) by a Manufacturer (which shall not require consent from French FleetCo), each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer may not assign, transfer or novate its obligations under such agreement without the prior written consent of French FleetCo. French FleetCo shall not provide such consent unless the Manufacturer /Dealer enters into a guarantee materially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Draft Transfer and Guarantee Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Programs) or accepts joint and several liability in respect of the transferred obligations substantially on the terms set out in Schedule IV

WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


(Draft Transfer and Joint and Several Liability Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Programs). For the purposes hereof, an “Intra-Group Transfer” means an assignment, transfer or novation by a Manufacturer of its obligations under a Manufacturer Program to an Affiliate of such Manufacturer which would satisfy the definition of “Investment Grade Manufacturer” upon such Affiliate becoming a Manufacturer. For the avoidance of doubt, Manufacturers /Dealers may assign their rights under Manufacturer Programs without the prior written consent of French FleetCo.
2.2    Set-off
Each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Manufacturer Program or under applicable law to set-off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by French FleetCo in relation to Vehicles ordered by (but not delivered to) French FleetCo by such Manufacturer/Dealer under that Manufacturer Program, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to French FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program, provided that, each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement entered into or renewed on or after the Closing Date will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or under applicable law to set-off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by French FleetCo under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to French FleetCo under that Manufacturer Program or any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, save and except in relation to any Manufacturer Programme with Daimler AG, and/or any of their respective Affiliates or successors or any corporation into which such entities may be merged or converted or with which they may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation of such entities (“Daimler Entities”) or any Dealers or agents (or Affiliates or successors thereof) selling Vehicles manufactured or purchased from the Daimler Entities if such Manufacturer Programme does not provide for waiver of set-off in accordance with paragraph 2.2 (Set-off) hereof, in which case such amounts may be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from French FleetCo.
Notwithstanding the foregoing the Manufacturer /Dealers will be entitled to set off any amount owed by French FleetCo in respect of turn-back related damages against any amount of Repurchase Price owed by it to French FleetCo. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to procure that each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer /Dealer expressly waives all rights to set-off (however arising, including legal set-off) any amount:
(a)    owed to it by French OpCo under such Manufacturer Program; or
(b)    owed to it by French OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo) under any other agreement (including any French OpCo Specific Agreement),
in any such case against amounts owed by the Manufacturer /Dealer to French FleetCo under the relevant Manufacturer Program.
2.3    Manufacturer’s/Dealer’s obligations to be ‘unconditional’
No Manufacturer Program may contain terms that provide that the Repurchase Obligations of the Manufacturer/Dealer are conditional in any respect other than, in relation to (a) a force majeure event1 or (b) compliance with applicable turn-back procedures (including any Programme Minimum Term or Programme Maximum Term) and/or (c) turn-back standards in relation to the condition of the relevant Vehicle. For the avoidance of doubt, no Manufacturer Program may provide that the obligations of the Manufacturer /Dealer thereunder are conditional upon:
(a)    any minimum number of Vehicles being purchased (i) by French FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program; and/or (ii) by French OpCo or any other Person under such Manufacturer Program or any French OpCo Specific Agreement; or
1 For these purposes, a 'force majeure event' will be constituted by any event which (a) was not foreseen by the parties, (b) is outside their control and could not have been avoided by taking due care or by compliance in all material respects with obligations under the VPA and (c) prevents performance of the obligations of one or more parties under the contract.

WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010


(b)    the solvency of French FleetCo; or
(c)    the solvency of any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than French FleetCo.
2.4    Termination provisions
To the extent that a Manufacturer/Dealer requires express termination provisions to be included in any Manufacturer Program, such Manufacturer Program may provide that a Manufacturer /Dealer is entitled (upon expiry of a predetermined notice period or otherwise) to terminate such agreement before its scheduled expiry date upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g. liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, failure to pay, late payment, partial payment, breach or serious breach of obligations, or any similar or analogous events); provided always that the Manufacturer/Dealer shall not under any circumstances have the right to terminate its obligations (subject to and in accordance with any eligibility criteria and Programme Minimum Term or Programme Maximum Term) to repurchase (or, if applicable to perform its guaranteed obligations thereunder) in respect of any Vehicle shipped to French FleetCo or its order prior to the termination of such Manufacturer Program.
2.5    Retention of title in favour of French FleetCo
The Manufacturer Program entered into with the Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers will, where credit terms are made available to the relevant Manufacturer /Dealer (in relation to the payment by it of applicable repurchase prices for Vehicles) provide that title to the relevant Vehicle will remain with French FleetCo until the sale proceeds are received by French FleetCo. In practice French FleetCo may return the registration documents for a Vehicle when it is turned back to such Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers.


WEIL:\96789894\1\52396.0010

(i)    From time to time, a Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessor one or more schedules identifying the vehicles such Lessee desires to lease from the Lessor hereunder, which schedules shall include the Basic Lease Vehicle Information (each such schedule, a “Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule”). Each Lessee hereby agrees that, upon delivery of a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule to the Lessor, it will represent and warrant, to and in favor of the Lessor, that each condition precedent to the leasing of the Lease Vehicles identified in such Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule has been satisfied as of the date of such delivery of the relevant Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule.
(ii)    During the period from the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date in respect of a Lease Vehicle to the date that such Lease Vehicle is first identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule, the existence of a lease between the Lessor and the relevant Lessee in respect of that Lease Vehicle shall be evidenced and determined by reference to the records of the Lessor and such records shall constitute prima facie evidence of such lease.
(iii)    The Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule for each Lease Vehicle to be leased hereunder on the Closing Date shall be substantially in the form as set out in Schedule V (Form of Initial Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule).
(e)    Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection.
(i)    Subject to Sub-Clause 2.1(e)(ii) below, with respect to any vehicle identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule and made available for lease by the Lessor to any Lessee, such Lessee shall have the right to inspect such vehicle within five (5) days of receipt (or such shorter period as may be contemplated under the applicable Vehicle
3


Purchasing Agreement) (the “Inspection Period”) of such vehicle and either accept or, if such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, reject such vehicle; provided that the relevant Lessee is not required to expressly declare its acceptance of the relevant vehicle. If such Lessee rejects the vehicle, it shall notify the Lessor in writing that such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle during the Inspection Period (the delivery date of such written notice, the “Rejection Date”). If such Lessee timely notifies the Lessor that such Vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, then such Non-conforming Lease Vehicle with respect to which such Lessee has so notified the Lessor shall be a “Rejected Vehicle”.
(ii)    Notwithstanding Sub-Clause 2.1(e)(i) above, a Lessee will be only entitled to reject any Vehicle delivered to it by or on behalf of the Lessor (A) if the Lessor is itself entitled to reject such Vehicle under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement pursuant to which such Vehicle was ordered and (B) subject to the same conditions (to the extent applicable) as to rejection as may be applicable to the Lessor under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement in respect of such Vehicle.
(iii)    The Lessor shall cause the Servicer to dispose of a Rejected Vehicle described in sub-paragraph (i) above (including by returning such Rejected Vehicle to the seller thereof in accordance with the terms of the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) in accordance with Sub-Clause 6.2 (Servicer Functions).
(f)    Third party representative. In making, delivering (which includes, for the avoidance of doubt, electronic delivery), receiving and/or accepting declarations pursuant to this Clause 2.1 (Lease of Vehicles), the Lessor and any Lessee may be represented by a duly authorised (bevollmächtigt) third party service provider acting in the name and on behalf of the Lessor or the applicable Lessee, respectively. The parties hereto agree that:
(i)    each party so represented shall deliver to the respective other party the relevant original power of attorney or the original of the relevant servicing contract containing such power of attorney, at the time of or prior to the direct declaration made, delivered (which includes, for the avoidance of doubt, electronic delivery), received and/or accepted on behalf of it;
(ii)    each party so represented shall promptly notify the respective other party of any amendments of such power of attorney;
(iii)    the Lessor may only be represented by third party service providers incorporated in, and acting from, a jurisdiction other than Germany; and
(iv)    each party shall procure that its respective service provider shall not sub-delegate its authority to any other Person.
(g)    Indemnity. Each Lessee shall indemnify the Lessor in respect of any Liabilities which the Lessor may suffer in circumstances where the Lessor has purchased a Vehicle or Vehicles under an Individual Purchase Agreement (as defined pursuant to the German Master Fleet Purchase Agreement) and a lease is not entered into by the date on which the Lessor pays the purchase price for such Vehicle or Vehicles (including, without limitation, where a lease is not entered into because the conditions precedent in Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Leased Vehicles) are not satisfied).
2.2    Certain Transfers
(a)    Sales to Lessee. The Lessor may sell a Lease Vehicle during such Lease Vehicle’s Vehicle Term to the relevant Lessee for an amount equal to the market value of such Lease Vehicle.
(b)    Intra-Lease Transfers. From time to time, a particular Lessee (the “Transferor Lessee”) may desire to cease leasing a Lease Vehicle hereunder and another Lessee (the “Transferee Lessee”) may desire to commence leasing such Lease Vehicle hereunder. Upon delivery by such Lessees to the Lessor of written notice identifying by VIN each Lease Vehicle with respect to which the lease shall be so transferred from such Transferor Lessee to such Transferee Lessee (such notice, an “Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule”), each Lease Vehicle identified in such Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule shall cease to be leased by the Transferor Lessee and shall contemporaneously commence being leased from the Lessor to the Transferee Lessee, provided that such transfer does not result in the breach of any prescribed limits relating to Lease Vehicles set out in the Related Documents. Each Lessee agrees that upon such a transfer of the lease with respect to any Lease Vehicle from one Lessee to another
4


Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, such Transferor Lessee relinquishes all rights that it has under such lease with respect to such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Agreement. Each Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by either the applicable Transferor Lessee or the applicable Transferee Lessee or on behalf of either such party by any agent or designee of such party, provided the Transferor Lessee and the Transferee Lessee shall have separately agreed to such Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule and, with respect to such agreement, may not be represented by the same agent.

(i)    Each Lessee shall return each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee on or prior to such Lease Vehicle’s Maximum Lease Termination Date to the Servicer at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the Servicer (taking into account transportation costs and expected realizable disposition proceeds).
(ii)    Each Lessee shall return each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee upon the Vehicle Lease Expiration Date to the Lessor unless a Disposition Date has occurred in respect of such Lease Vehicle.
2.5    Redesignation of Vehicles
(a)    Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations.

(i)    a Manufacturer Event of Default is continuing with respect to the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle as of such date; or
(ii)    as of any such date occurring after the Minimum Program Term End Date with respect to such Lease Vehicle, such Lease Vehicle was returned as of such date pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturer Program with respect to such Lease Vehicle, the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle would not be obligated to pay a repurchase price for such Lease Vehicle, or guarantee the disposition proceeds to be received for such Vehicle, in each case in an amount at least equal to (1) the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (2) the Final Base Rent that would be payable in respect of such Lease Vehicle, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date for such Lease Vehicle, minus (3) the Excess Mileage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (4) the Excess Damage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (5) the Pre-VLCD Program Vehicle Depreciation Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (6) the Program Vehicle Depreciation Assumption True-Up Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date.

effect to such redesignation, an Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency would exist, unless such redesignation would decrease the amount of such Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency.
(c)    Non-Program Vehicle to Program Vehicle Redesignations. With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Non-Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, if such Lease Vehicle was previously designated as a Program Vehicle, then such Lessee may redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle upon written notice to the Lessor (which written notice may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by such Lessee or on its behalf by any agent or designee of such Lessee); provided that, such Lessee may not redesignate any such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle if such Lease Vehicle would then be required to be redesignated as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) after designating such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle.

Each Lessee’s obligation to pay all rent and other sums hereunder shall not be subject to any setoff or counterclaim, unless such claims against which such setoff is to be made have become final adjudicated (rechtskräftig festgestellt) or remained uncontested (unbestritten) by the Lessor.

9.1.2    any unauthorized assignment or transfer of this Agreement by any Lessee occurs;
9.1.3    the failure of any Lessee to observe or perform any other covenant, condition, agreement or provision hereof, including, but not limited to, usage, and maintenance that in any such case has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice thereof is delivered by the Lessor or the German Security Trustee to such Lessee or the date an Authorized Officer of such Lessee obtains actual knowledge thereof;
9.1.4    if (i) any representation or warranty made by any Lessee herein is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached or is false or misleading as of the date of the making thereof or any schedule, certificate, financial statement, report, notice, or other writing furnished by or on behalf of any Lessee to the Lessor or the German Security Trustee is false or misleading on the date as of which the facts therein set forth are stated or certified, (ii) such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the German Security Trustee to the applicable Lessee and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the applicable Lessee learns of such circumstance or condition;

each case other than with respect to any Lessee that at such time is not leasing any Lease Vehicles hereunder;
9.1.7    a Servicer Default occurs; or
9.1.8    a Liquidation Event occurs.
For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the German Related Documents.
9.2    Effect of Lease Event of Default.
If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Sub-Clause 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, the relevent Lessee’s leases with respect to any Lease Vehicles leased hereunder shall be subject to the Lessor’s option to terminate such leases as set forth in Sub-Clause 9.3 (Rights of Lessor Upon Lease Event of Default) and 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants).
9.3    Rights of Lessor and German Security Trustee Upon Lease Event of Default
9.3.1    If a Lease Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then the Lessor may proceed by appropriate court action or actions available to it under German law to enforce performance by any Lessee of the applicable covenants and terms of this Agreement or to recover damages for the breach hereof calculated in accordance with Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages).
9.3.2    If any Lease Event of Default set forth in Sub-Clause 9.1.1, 9.1.2, 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.8 (Events of Default) shall occur and be continuing, then (i) subject to the terms of this Clause 9.3.2, the Lessor or the German Security Trustee (acting on the written instructions of the Issuer Security Trustee (whose instructions, in turn, have been obtained in accordance with the terms of the German Security Trust Deed and the Issuer Security Trust Deed)) shall have the right to serve notice on the other parties hereto whereby any Lessee’s leases hereunder of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased hereunder by such Lessee are terminated, a “Master Lease Termination Notice”, and following service of such notice shall have the right to (a) take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased by any Lessee hereunder the lease of which has been so terminated and (b) peaceably enter upon the premises of any Lessee or other premises where Lease Vehicles may be located and take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and thenceforth hold, possess and enjoy the same free from any right of any Lessee, or its successors or assigns, and to use such Lease Vehicles for any purpose whatsoever and (ii) the Lessees, at the request of the Lessor or the German Security Trustee (whose instructions, in turn, have been obtained in accordance with the terms of the German Security Trust Deed), shall return or cause to be returned all Lease Vehicles to and in accordance with the directions of the Lessor or the German Security Trustee as the case may be.

9.3.3    Each and every power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Lessor will be in addition to every other power and remedy hereby specifically given or now or hereafter available to it under German law and each and every power and remedy may be exercised from time to time and simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Lessor; provided, however, that the measure of damages recoverable against such Lessee will in any case be calculated in accordance with Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages). All such powers and remedies will be cumulative, and the exercise of one will not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Lessor in the exercise of any such power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any payments due hereunder will impair any such power or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any exercise of any such right or power shall remain subject to each condition expressly specified in any Related Document with respect to such exercise. Any extension of time for payment hereunder or other indulgence duly granted to any Lessee will not otherwise alter or affect the Lessor’s rights or the obligations hereunder of such Lessee. The Lessor’s acceptance of any payment after it will have become due hereunder will not alter or affect the Lessor’s rights hereunder with respect to any subsequent payments or defaults therein.

(b)    During the continuance of a Liquidation Event, the Servicer shall return any or all Lease Vehicles that are Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers in accordance with the instructions of the Lessor.

(c)    Notwithstanding the exercise of any rights or remedies pursuant to this Sub-Clause 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants), the Lessor will, nevertheless, have a right to recover from such Lessee any and all amounts (for the avoidance of doubt, as limited by Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages)) as may be then due.

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Servicer Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Servicer Default ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Servicer Default will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the German Related Documents.
9.7    Application of Proceeds
The proceeds of any sale or other disposition pursuant to Sub-Clause 9.2 (Effect of Lease Event of Default) or Sub-Clause 9.3 (Rights of Lessor Upon Lease Event of Default) shall be applied by the Lessor in accordance with the terms of the German Related Documents.

Each Lessee acknowledges that the Lessor is not a Manufacturer or agent thereof or primarily engaged in the sale or distribution of Lease Vehicles. The Lessor will not be liable to any Lessee and any Lessee will procure that the Lessor will not be liable to any ultimate rental customers of any Lessee or any other person in respect of any cost, loss or damage (consequential or otherwise) arising out of the condition, the use, the operation, the rental, the maintenance, repair, delay or failure in delivery of any Vehicle, or the interruption or suspension of possession, use or quiet enjoyment (ungestörter Besitz) in respect of any Vehicle, provided that the aforementioned limitations shall not apply in respect of liabilities for (i) damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit) or by a negligent (fahrlässig) breach of any material contractual obligation (vertragswesentliche Pflicht) by the Lessor or (ii) damages to persons (Personenschäden). Material contractual obligations (vertragswesentliche Pflichten) are any obligations whose fulfilment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and whose observance contractual partners regularly rely upon.

Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees with and acknowledges to each of German FleetCo and the German Security Trustee until the date falling one year and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date, that:
(a)    it shall not have the right to take or join any person in taking any steps against German FleetCo for the purpose of obtaining payment of any amount due from German FleetCo (other than serving a written demand subject to the terms of the German Security Trust Deed); and
(b)    neither it nor any Person on its behalf shall initiate or join any person in initiating an Event of Bankruptcy or the appointment of any Insolvency Official in relation to German FleetCo, provided that, the German Security Trustee shall have the right to take any action pursuant to and in accordance with the relevant German Related Documents and German Security Documents,
provided that the aforementioned limitations shall not apply in respect of liabilities for (i) damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit) or by a negligent (fahrlässig) breach of any material contractual obligation (vertragswesentliche Pflicht) by the Lessor or (ii) damages to persons (Personenschäden). Material contractual obligations (vertragswesentliche Pflichten) are any obligations whose fulfilment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and whose observance contractual partners regularly rely upon.
The provisions of this Sub-Clause 16.1 (Non-Petition) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
16.2    No Recourse
Each party to this Agreement agrees with and acknowledges to each of German FleetCo and the German Security Trustee that, notwithstanding any other provision of any German Related Document, all obligations of German FleetCo to such entity are limited in recourse as set out below:
(a)    sums payable to it in respect of any of German OpCo's obligations to it shall be limited to the lesser of (i) the aggregate amount of all sums due and payable to it and (ii) the aggregate amounts received, realised or otherwise recovered by or for the account of the German Security Trustee in respect of the German Security whether pursuant to enforcement of the German Security or otherwise; and
(b)    upon the German Security Trustee giving written notice that it has determined in its opinion that there is no reasonable likelihood of there being any further realisations in respect of the German Security (whether arising from an enforcement of the German Security or otherwise)
30


which would be available to pay unpaid amounts outstanding under the relevant German Related Documents, it shall have no further claim against German FleetCo in respect of any such unpaid amounts and such unpaid amounts shall be discharged in full,
provided that the aforementioned limitations shall not apply in respect of liabilities for (i) damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit) or by a negligent (fahrlässig) breach of any material contractual obligation (vertragswesentliche Pflicht) by the Lessor or (ii) damages to persons (Personenschäden). Material contractual obligations (vertragswesentliche Pflichten) are any obligations whose fulfilment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and whose observance contractual partners regularly rely upon.
The provisions of this Sub-Clause 16.2 (No Recourse) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
17    SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION
With respect to any suit, action, dispute or proceedings relating to this Agreement, each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Frankfurt am Main, and agrees that the courts of Frankfurt am Main are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle any suit, action, dispute or proceedings and accordingly no party will be able to argue to the contrary.

The terms of this Agreement will not be waived, altered, modified, amended, supplemented or terminated in any manner whatsoever unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Lessor, the Servicer, the German Security Trustee and each Lessee, subject to any restrictions on such waivers, alterations, modifications, amendments, supplements or terminations set forth in the German Facility Agreement. The right of a Party to terminate this Agreement for just cause (Kündigung aus wichtigem Grund) shall remain unaffected. If any part of this Agreement is not valid or enforceable according to law, all other parts will remain enforceable. For the avoidance of doubt, the execution and/or delivery (where relevant) of and/or performance under any Affiliate Joinder in Lease, Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule or Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule shall not constitute a waiver, alteration, modification, supplement or termination to or of this Agreement.
22    SURVIVABILITY
In the event that, during the term of this Agreement, any Lessee becomes liable for the payment or reimbursement of any obligations, claims or taxes pursuant to any provision hereof, such liability will continue, notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement, until all such amounts are paid or reimbursed by or on behalf of such Lessee.

26    LESSEE TERMINATION AND RESIGNATION

28    [RESERVED]
29    GOVERNING LANGUAGE

SCHEDULE III

Required Contractual Criteria for Vehicle Purchasing Agreements
1    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL VEHICLE PURCHASING AGREEMENTS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY GERMAN FLEETCO OR GERMAN OPCO
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in substance satisfy the following contractual requirements:
1.1    Parties
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will satisfy the following criteria:
(a)    the rights and obligations of each of German FleetCo and German OpCo shall in all cases be several and not joint (nicht gesamtschuldnerisch); and
(b)    German FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of German OpCo arising under or in connection with such agreement.
1.2    Confidentiality
(a)    Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will provide that, subject only as provided in sub-paragraph (b) below, none of German FleetCo, German OpCo or the Supplier may disclose the terms of such agreement to any third party (other than their Affiliates, agents and professional advisors, and the agents and professional advisors of their Affiliates) without the prior written consent of:
(i)    in the case of disclosure by German FleetCo or German OpCo, the Supplier; and
(ii)    in the case of disclosure by the Supplier, German FleetCo and German OpCo,
provided always that such prohibition on disclosure shall not apply to any disclosure in accordance with any requirement of or direction by any regulatory body or authority or as otherwise required by applicable law.
(b)    Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will permit German FleetCo to disclose any term of the agreement in connection with any proposed issue of securities which is secured, directly or indirectly, on any Relevant Vehicle or German FleetCo’s rights under the agreement (each, a “Finance Transaction”):
(i)    to any Affiliate of German Fleetco or any issuer, security trustee, lead manager or arranger (or any person appointed in a similar role), rating agency, servicer (debt service manager), monoline insurer or any other person providing credit support or enhancement for a proposed Finance Transaction, as well as their agents, professional advisors and Affiliates; provided that any person to whom disclosure is made under this sub-paragraph (i) shall be under a duty of confidentiality in connection with such information;
(ii)    to any regulatory body or authority in accordance with any requirement of or direction by these authorities; and
(iii)    (other than in relation to any Initial Purchase Price, Repurchase Price or any requirement in relation to the number of Relevant Vehicles required to be purchased by German OpCo pursuant to the agreement) pursuant to any prospectus, preliminary prospectus or investor presentation prepared in connection with a proposed Finance Transaction; provided that such disclosure is consistent with requirements under any applicable law, regulation, listing rule or stock exchange requirement.
1.3    Volume Rebates etc.
A Vehicle Purchasing Agreement may provide that any bonus payment or other amount (howsoever described) payable or to be made available by a Manufacturer /Dealer as a result of German FleetCo (or German FleetCo and/or German OpCo (and/or any other relevant Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation) under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and/or any German OpCo Specific Agreement, as applicable) meeting any minimum vehicle purchase level in that relevant year, be payable to or for the
42


account of German OpCo (rather than German FleetCo). For the avoidance of doubt, German FleetCo may however take the benefit of reductions applied to purchase prices applicable to vehicles as a result of any such minimum vehicle purchase levels being reached.
Notwithstanding the foregoing where a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that in the event that any minimum vehicle purchase level in the relevant year is not met:
(a)    any bonus, payment, benefit or reductions applied to purchase prices on Vehicles purchased by German FleetCo or other amount (howsoever described) is recoverable by or repayable to a Manufacturer /Dealer; or
(b)    any penalty or other amount (howsoever described) is payable to such Manufacturer /Dealer,
such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement shall provide that, in each case, such amounts will only be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from German OpCo or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than German FleetCo.
1.4    Non-petition
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable and unconditional covenant and undertaking given by the relevant Supplier that, until 01.01.2020, such Supplier shall not petition or take any step for:
(a)    the liquidation, insolvency or any similar or analogous proceedings or circumstances of German FleetCo; or
(b)    the appointment of an insolvency officer in relation to German FleetCo or any of its assets,
provided that the aforementioned limitations shall not apply in respect of liabilities for (i) damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit) or by a negligent (fahrlässig) breach of any material contractual obligation (vertragswesentliche Pflicht) by German FleetCo or (ii) damages to persons (Personenschäden). Material contractual obligations (vertragswesentliche Pflichten) are any obligations whose fulfilment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and whose observance contractual partners regularly rely upon.
1.5    Limited recourse
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable and unconditional covenant and undertaking given by the relevant Supplier that, until 01.01.2020, such Supplier shall not take any step for any legal proceedings to recover any amount owed to it by German FleetCo under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, provided that the aforementioned limitations shall not apply in respect of:
(a)    liabilities for (i) damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit) or by a negligent (fahrlässig) breach of any material contractual obligation (vertragswesentliche Pflicht) by German FleetCo or (ii) damages to persons (Personenschäden). Material contractual obligations (vertragswesentliche Pflichten) are any obligations whose fulfilment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and whose observance contractual partners regularly rely upon; and
(b)    legal proceedings against German FleetCo to the extent that the only relief sought against German FleetCo pursuant to such proceedings is the re-possession of a Relevant Vehicle pursuant to applicable retention of title provisions provided for under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement.
1.6    Assignment
(a)    Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain terms that permit both German FleetCo and the Supplier to assign or pledge their respective rights under such agreement or (with regard to the Supplier) any other vehicle purchase contract without the need to obtain the consent of each other or a third party.
(b)    The Vehicle Purchasing Agreements will not permit German FleetCo or the Supplier to transfer any of its respective obligations thereunder without the prior written consent of each other party to the agreement.
43


1.7    Termination provisions
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will entitle the parties to terminate such agreement subject to and in accordance with the terms thereof, provided that the Supplier shall not at any time be entitled to terminate its repurchase obligations in relation to any Relevant Vehicle (each an "Repurchase Obligation", together the "Repurchase Obligations") which has previously been shipped to or to the order of German FleetCo, provided further that the provisions of paragraph 1.5 (Non-petition), 1.6 (Limited recourse) and 2.1 (Set-off) shall survive termination of a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement. The right of any party to terminate any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement for just cause (Kündigung aus wichtigem Grund) shall remain unaffected.
2    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL MANUFACTURER PROGRAMS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY A GERMAN FLEETCO
Each Manufacturer Program will in substance satisfy the following additional contractual requirements:
2.1    Set-off
(a)    Subject to paragraph 2.1(b) below, Manufacturer Programs may provide that the Supplier may set off amounts owed by it to German FleetCo against amounts owed to it by German FleetCo or by German OpCo under that Manufacturer Program or any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which have been finally adjudicated (rechtskräftig festgestellt) or which are uncontested (unbestritten) by German FleetCo or German OpCo, respectively.
(b)    Each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Supplier may not, however, set off any other amounts owed to it by German OpCo (including unpaid Initial Purchase Price in relation to Vehicles, including Relevant Vehicles, delivered to or to the order of German OpCo, or ordered by the German OpCo) against amounts owed by the Supplier to German FleetCo (in particular, any amounts in respect of the Repurchase Price) under that Manufacturer Program or any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, save and except in relation to any Manufacturer Program with Daimler AG and/or any of their respective Affiliates or successors or any corporation into which such entities may be merged or converted or with which they may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation of such entities (“Daimler Entities”) or any Dealers or agents (or Affiliates or successors thereof) selling Vehicles manufactured or purchased from the Daimler Entities if such Manufacturer Program does not provide for waiver of set-off in accordance with this paragraph, in which case such amounts may be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from German FleetCo.
(c)    Manufacturer Programs will provide that German FleetCo may set off any amount owed by the Supplier to it against any amount owed by German FleetCo to the Supplier.
2.2    Repurchase Obligations
The Manufacturer Program will provide that the Repurchase Obligations are unconditional and irrevocable obligations of the Supplier, subject only to the fulfilment of:
(a)    any applicable procedures or requirements, including any minimum or maximum holding periods set out in the Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and required to be followed by German Fleetco (or its agents, if any) in relation to the Repurchase Obligations; and
(b)    any applicable provisions or eligibility criteria set out in the Vehicle Purchasing Agreement requiring Relevant Vehicles to meet specified condition standards or eligibility criteria in relation to the Repurchase Obligations.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Manufacturer Program may provide that the obligations of the Supplier thereunder are conditional upon German FleetCo, German OpCo or any other person, individually or in aggregate, purchasing any minimum number of Vehicles or meeting any other minimum threshold level over or within any period or the solvency of German FleetCo, German OpCo or any other Affiliate of German FleetCo. The Repurchase Obligations shall not lapse under any circumstances in the case of an insolvency of German OpCo.
44


2.3    Retention of title
The Manufacturer Program will provide that:
(a)    the Supplier shall retain title to the Relevant Vehicle until the time of payment of the Initial Purchase Price for such Vehicle by either German OpCo or German FleetCo to the Supplier; and
(b)    title to the Relevant Vehicle shall not pass to the Supplier until the time of payment of the Repurchase Price for such Vehicle by the Supplier (or if specified by the Supplier at the time of payment, by a third party), following which title to the Relevant Vehicle shall automatically pass to the Supplier.

(d)    Lease Vehicle Purchases and Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedules
(i)    Each Lessee may from time to time request that the Lessor acquires vehicles for the purpose of leasing such vehicles in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Lessor may, in its absolute discretion, and provided that the conditions precedent in Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of
3
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


Lease Vehicles) above have been satisfied or waived by the Spanish Security Trustee, order the relevant vehicles in accordance with the terms of the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement.
(ii)    Any order of Vehicles will be made by Spanish Opco acting in its capacity as Spanish Servicer on behalf of Spanish Fleetco. The Lessor shall not incur any Liability of any type whatsoever if it does not or cannot accept any order of new Vehicle (including if the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are satisfied).
(iii)    Before making any order of Vehicle, the Spanish Servicer shall verify that the conditions precedent set out under Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles) are or will be complied with. Any waiver of a condition precedent will require the prior written consent of the Spanish Security Trustee.
(iv)    Each Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessor one or more schedules identifying the vehicles which the Lessor has acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement following a request by such Lessee, which schedules shall include the Basic Lease Vehicle Information (each such schedule, a “Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule”). Each Lessee hereby agrees that each such delivery of a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule shall be deemed hereunder to constitute a representation and warranty by such Lessee, to and in favor of the Lessor, that each condition precedent to the leasing of the Lease Vehicles identified in such Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule has been satisfied as of the date on which the relevant Lease Vehicles were ordered and delivered.
(v)    During the period from the Vehicle Lease Commencement Date in respect of a Lease Vehicle to the date that such Lease Vehicle is first identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule, the existence of a lease between the Lessor and a Lessee in respect of that Lease Vehicle shall be evidenced and determined by reference to the records of the Lessor (which such records shall be held to be correct for all purposes unless manifestly erroneous).

(e)    The Lessee shall indemnify the Lessor in respect of any Liabilities which the Lessor may suffer in circumstances where the Lessor has ordered a Vehicle or Vehicles in accordance with the terms of the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and (i) the Lessee has cancelled or amended the aforementioned Vehicle or Vehicles and/or (ii) the Lessor has accepted an order but subsequently is made aware of an event which would give rise to a Master Lease Termination Notice being served and rejects such notice, and/or (iii) a lease is not entered into by the date on which the Lessor pays the purchase price for such Vehicle or Vehicles (including, without limitation, where a lease is not entered into because the conditions precedent in Clause 2.1(c) (Conditions Precedent to Lease of Lease Vehicles)above are not satisfied).
(f)    Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection.
(i)    Subject to Sub-Clause 2.1(f)(ii)below, with respect to any vehicle identified on a Lease Vehicle Acquisition Schedule and made available for lease by the Lessor to any Lessee, such Lessee shall have the right to inspect such vehicle within five (5) days of receipt (or such shorter period as may be contemplated under the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) (the “Inspection Period”) of such vehicle and either accept or, if such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, reject such vehicle; provided that, such Lessee shall be deemed to have accepted such vehicle as a Lease Vehicle unless it has notified the Lessor in writing that such vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle during the Inspection Period (the delivery date of such written notice, the “Rejection Date”). If such Lessee timely notifies the Lessor that such Vehicle is a Non-conforming Lease Vehicle, then such Non-conforming Lease Vehicle with respect to which such Lessee has so notified the Lessor shall be a “Rejected Vehicle”.
4
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


(ii)    Notwithstanding Sub-Clause 2.1(f)(i)above, a Lessee will only be entitled to reject any Lease Vehicle delivered to it by or on behalf of the Lessor (A) if the Lessor is itself entitled to reject such Lease Vehicle under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement pursuant to which such Vehicle was ordered and (B) subject to the same conditions (to the extent applicable) as to rejection as may be applicable to the Lessor under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement in respect of such Vehicle.
(iii)    The Lessor shall cause the Servicer to dispose of a Rejected Vehicle described in sub-paragraph (i) above (including by returning such Rejected Vehicle to the seller thereof in accordance with the terms of the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement) in accordance with Sub-Clause 6.2 (Servicer Functions with Respect to Lease Vehicle Returns, Disposition and Invoicing).
2.2    Certain Transfers
(a)    Sales to Lessee. The Lessor may sell a Lease Vehicle during such Lease Vehicle’s Vehicle Term to the relevant Lessee for an amount equal to the net book value under GAAP of such Lease Vehicle, and in any event, subject to compliance with arm’s length principles.
(b)    Intra-Lease Transfers. From time to time, a particular Lessee (the “Transferor Lessee”) may desire to cease leasing a Lease Vehicle hereunder and another Lessee (the “Transferee Lessee”) may desire to commence leasing such Lease Vehicle hereunder. Upon delivery by such Lessees to the Lessor of written notice identifying by VIN each Lease Vehicle to be so transferred from such Transferor Lessee to such Transferee Lessee (such notice, an “Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule”), each Lease Vehicle identified in such Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule shall cease to be leased by the Transferor Lessee and shall contemporaneously commence being leased to the Transferee Lessee, provided that such transfer does not result in the breach of any prescribed limits relating to Lease Vehicles set out in the Related Documents. Each Lessee agrees that upon such a transfer of any Lease Vehicle from one Lessee to another Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, such Transferor Lessee relinquishes all rights that it has in such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Agreement. Each Intra-Lease Lessee Transfer Schedule may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by either the applicable Transferor Lessee or the applicable Transferee Lessee or on behalf of either such party by any agent or designee of such party.
2.3    [Reserved]
2.4    Return
(a)    Lessee Right to Return. Any Lessee may return any Lease Vehicle (other than any Lease Vehicle that has experienced a Casualty or become an Ineligible Vehicle) then leased by such Lessee at any time prior to such Lease Vehicle’s Maximum Lease Termination Date to the Servicer at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the Servicer; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Vehicle Term for such Lease Vehicle will continue until the Vehicle Lease Expiration Date thereof, notwithstanding the prior return of such Lease Vehicle pursuant to this Sub-Clause 2.4(a) (Lessee Right to Return).
(b)    Lessee Obligation to Return.
(i)    Each Lessee shall return (or shall oblige any sublessee to return) each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee on or prior to such Lease Vehicle’s Maximum Lease Termination Date to the Servicer at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the Servicer (or in the case of sub-lease to another jurisdiction pursuant to condition 5.2.2(E) below where the servicer of such relevant jurisdiction will dispose of such Lease Vehicle on the Servicer's behalf, at the location for such Lease Vehicle’s return reasonably specified by the servicer of such relevant jurisdiction, including for the avoidance of doubt at a location in such other jurisdiction) (taking into account transportation costs and expected realizable disposition proceeds).

With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, the Lessor shall on the date specified in Sub-Clause 2.5(d) (Timing of Redesignations) redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle, if:
(i)    a Manufacturer Event of Default is continuing with respect to the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle as of such date; or
(ii)    as of any such date occurring after the Minimum Program Term End Date with respect to such Lease Vehicle, such Lease Vehicle was returned as of such date pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturer Program with respect to such Lease Vehicle, the Manufacturer of such Lease Vehicle would not be obligated to pay a repurchase price for such Lease Vehicle, or guarantee the disposition proceeds to be received for such Vehicle, in each case in an amount at least equal to (1) the Net Book Value of such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (2) the Final Base Rent that would be payable in respect of such Lease Vehicle, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date for such Lease Vehicle, minus (3) the Excess Mileage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (4) the Excess Damage Charges with respect to such Lease Vehicle, that would be applicable as of such date, assuming that such date were the Disposition Date, minus (5) the Pre-VLCD Program Vehicle Depreciation Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date, minus (6) the Program Vehicle Depreciation Assumption True-Up Amount paid or payable with respect to such Lease Vehicle, as of such date.

In addition to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) and without limitation thereto, with respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, such Lessee may redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle upon written notice to the Lessor (which written notice may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by such Lessee or on its behalf by any agent or designee of such Lessee); provided that, such Lessee shall not redesignate any Program Vehicle as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to this Sub-Clause 2.5(b) (Optional Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) if, after giving effect to such redesignation, an Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency would exist, unless such redesignation would decrease the amount of such Aggregate Asset Amount Deficiency.

With respect to any Lease Vehicle that is a Non-Program Vehicle leased by any Lessee hereunder as of any date of determination, if such Lease Vehicle was previously designated as a Program Vehicle, then such Lessee may redesignate such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle upon written notice to the Lessor (which written notice may be delivered electronically and may be delivered directly by such Lessee or on its behalf by any agent or designee of such Lessee); provided that, such Lessee may not redesignate any such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle if such Lease Vehicle would then be required to be redesignated as a Non-Program Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) after designating such Lease Vehicle as a Program Vehicle.
(d)    Timing of Redesignations. With respect to any redesignation to be effected pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.5(a) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations), such redesignation shall occur as of the first calendar day of the calendar month following the date on which the applicable event or condition described in Sub-Clause 2.5(a)(i) or (ii) (Mandatory Program Vehicle to Non-Program Vehicle Redesignations) occurs.

(ii)    the amount of any such payment to be made by the Lessor on any such date shall be capped at and be paid from (and the obligation of the Lessor to make such payment on such date shall be limited to) the amount of funds available to the Lessor on such date; and
(iii)    if any such payment from the Lessor is limited in amount pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (i) or (ii), the Lessor shall pay to such Lessee the funds available to the Lessor on such Payment Date and shall pay to such Lessee on each Payment Date thereafter the amount available to the Lessor until such Redesignation to Program Amount has been paid in full to such Lessee.

Each Lessee’s obligation to pay all rent and other sums hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be subject to any abatement, setoff (except as required under Sub-Clause 4.8(f) below), counterclaim, deduction or reduction for any reason whatsoever.

18
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


reports or opinions establishing that the deviation will not affect the insolvency remoteness of Spanish FleetCo nor materially increase the tax liability of Spanish FleetCo.
(b)    During the period from (and including) the Fourth Amendment Date until the Non-RCC Expiry Date, in circumstances where Non-Program Vehicles are to be acquired from a Dealer or an Auction Seller where it is not reasonably practicable to enter into a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement with such Dealer or an Auction Seller that complies with the Required Contractual Criteria, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate with such Dealer or Auction Seller the terms of a new Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or Vehicle Purchasing Agreements on behalf of the Spanish FleetCo without being required to comply with the Required Contractual Criteria, provided that each of the following requirements is met:
(i)    the number of Vehicles acquired pursuant to such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or Vehicle Purchasing Agreements with a single Dealer in a single or series of related transactions or Auction Seller in a single or series of transactions in the same auction process shall not exceed 50 Non-Program Vehicles;
(ii)    the purchase price of the Vehicle(s) shall be paid to the relevant Dealer or Auction Seller in full by the date falling no later than five (5) Business Days from the date of (A) in respect of a purchase from a Dealer, delivery of the relevant Vehicle(s) and (B) in respect of a purchase from an Auction Seller, the applicable Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and in each case, to the extent that the purchase price has not been paid in full by the date falling no later than five (5) Business Days in accordance with paragraphs (A) and (B) above, such Vehicle(s) will not constitute Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles for the purposes of this Agreement;
(iii)    the Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that there is an absolute transfer of title of the Non-Program Vehicle from the relevant Dealer or Auction Seller to the Spanish FleetCo, immediately following the payment of the purchase price of the Non-Program Vehicle, and the Spanish FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any obligations of any nature in favour of such Dealer or Auction Seller under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement following such payment;
(iv)    at any time of determination, the aggregate Net Book Value of such Vehicles where the Vehicles have been delivered to or to the order of the Spanish FleetCo by an Auction Seller or Dealer pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement but for which the full purchase price payable by or on behalf of the Spanish FleetCo has not yet been paid by or on behalf of Spanish FleetCo, shall, in aggregate with the Net Book Value of such Vehicles acquired by the relevant FleetCo pursuant to the equivalent clause in each of the other Master Leases, be no more than EUR 10,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, any Vehicles acquired pursuant to a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which is not compliant with the Required Contractual Criteria but for which the purchase price has been paid in full shall be disregarded for the purposes of the limit set out in this paragraph (b)(iv) and further, to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Vehicles acquired by the FleetCos pursuant to this Clause 6.3(b)(iv) and the equivalent clause in each of the other Master Leases is more than EUR 10,000,000, then such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Unpaid Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount; and
(v)    at any time of determination, the aggregate Net Book Value of all Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles as at that date of determination and to the extent that on such date of determination, the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is more than thirty (30) per cent of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles, such excess shall be treated as Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount and the Spanish FleetCo shall not purchase any further Vehicles pursuant to any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement which does not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria until such time that the Net Book Value of such Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles is equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible
19
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


Vehicles (and the Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicle Concentration Excess Amount is brought down to nil). For the avoidance of doubt, a breach by the Spanish FleetCo of the obligation to ensure the aggregate Net Book Value of Non-RCC Compliant Eligible Vehicles shall be equal to or less than thirty (30) per cent. of the aggregate Net Book Value of all Eligible Vehicles set out in this Sub-Clause (v) shall not on its own constitute a Lease Event of Default or a Leasing Company Amortization Event.
(c)    On any date after the Non-RCC Expiry Date, the Servicer shall not negotiate any Vehicle Purchasing Agreements on behalf of Spanish FleetCo which do not comply with the Required Contractual Criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, this restriction shall not apply to any Vehicles which the Spanish FleetCo may have purchased pursuant to Sub-Clause (b) above.
(d)    With respect to Non-Program Vehicles only and during the Revolving Period, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate on behalf of the Spanish FleetCo the terms of an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos or other Affiliates of the Spanish FleetCo located in a different jurisdiction than the jurisdiction where the FleetCo is located, for the purchase of Non-Program Vehicles, provided that the following requirements are satisfied at all times:
(i)    the purchase price to be paid for the purchase of the Non-Program Vehicles shall be the Net Book Value (as determined under US GAAP) of such Non-Program Vehicle;
(ii)    an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement for Non-Program Vehicle shall be entered into each time any such Non-Program Vehicle is acquired pursuant to this Sub-Clause, in form and substance substantially the same as the template Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement set out in Schedule VI (Draft Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement);
(iii)    once a Non-Program vehicle is acquired by the Spanish FleetCo pursuant to an Intra-Group Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the same Non-Program Vehicle may not be transferred or sold to any other FleetCo or Opco or other Affiliates of the Spanish FleetCo other than the disposal of such Non-Program vehicle at the expiry of the relevant Lease Term, and
(iv)    following a Level 1 Minimum Liquidity Breach, the Servicer shall be able to negotiate on behalf of the Spanish FleetCo the terms of an intra-group vehicle sale agreement with other FleetCos or OpCos.
(e)    The purchase of vehicles between Fleetcos and Opcos pursuant to the above paragraph shall cease if a Level 1 Minimum Liquidity Test Breach occurs.
6.4    Servicing Standard and Data Protection
In addition to the duties enumerated in Sub-Clause 6.2 (Servicer Functions with Respect to Lease Vehicle Returns, Disposition and Invoicing) and 6.3 (Required Contractual Criteria), the Servicer agrees to perform each of its obligations hereunder in accordance with the Servicing Standard, unless otherwise stated.
In addition, where necessary to enable the Servicer to deliver the services hereunder, for such purposes the Lessor authorises the Servicer to process personal data on behalf of the Lessor in accordance with this Sub-Clause 6.4 (Servicing Standard and Data Protection).

(i)    the Servicer becoming aware of the breach; and
(ii)    receipt by the Servicer of written notice from the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee requiring the same to be remedied; and

Spanish FleetCo will grant immediately after the Closing Date and in any event within the following two Business Days after the Closing Date in favor of relevant persons within Spanish OpCo, the relevant power of attorney in substantially the form of Schedule V hereto, with faculties of delegation, so that they can bind Spanish FleetCo vis-à-vis third parties in relation to the service to be provided hereunder by the Servicer to Spanish FleetCo.

9.1    Events of Default
Any one or more of the following will constitute an event of default (a “Lease Event of Default”) as that term is used herein:

9.1.2    any unauthorized assignment or transfer of this Agreement by any Lessee occurs;
9.1.3    the failure of any Lessee to observe or perform any other covenant, condition, agreement or provision hereof, including, but not limited to, usage, and maintenance that in any such case has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice thereof is delivered by the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee to such Lessee or the date an Authorized Officer of such Lessee obtains actual knowledge thereof;
9.1.4    if (i) any representation or warranty made by any Lessee herein is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached or is false or misleading as of the date of the making thereof or any schedule, certificate, financial statement, report, notice, or other writing furnished by or on behalf of any Lessee to the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee is false or misleading on the date as of which the facts therein set forth are stated or certified, (ii) such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood has a Lease Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee to the applicable Lessee and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the applicable Lessee learns of such circumstance or condition;

9.1.7    a Servicer Default occurs; or

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Potential Lease Event of Default or Lease Event of Default, as applicable, will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the Spanish Related Documents.

9.3.3    Each and every power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Lessor will be in addition to every other power and remedy hereby specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or in bankruptcy and each and every power and remedy may be exercised from time to time and simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Lessor; provided, however, that the measure of damages recoverable against such Lessee will in any case be calculated in accordance with Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages). All such powers and remedies will be cumulative, and the exercise of one will not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Lessor in the exercise of any such power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any payments due hereunder will impair any such power or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any exercise of any such right or power shall remain subject to each condition expressly specified in any Related Document with respect to such exercise. Any extension of time for payment hereunder or other indulgence duly granted to any Lessee will not otherwise alter or affect the Lessor’s rights or the obligations hereunder of such Lessee. The Lessor’s acceptance of any payment after it will have become due hereunder will not be deemed to alter or affect the Lessor’s rights hereunder with respect to any subsequent payments or defaults therein.
9.4    Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants
(a)    If a Liquidation Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Spanish Security Trustee and the Issuer Security Trustee shall have the rights against each Lessee and the Spanish Collateral provided in the Spanish Security Trust Deed and Issuer Security Trust Deed, upon a Liquidation Event, including, in each case, the right to serve a Master Lease Termination Notice on the other parties hereto and following service of such notice shall have the right (i) to terminate any Lessee’s rights of possession hereunder of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased hereunder by such Lessee (ii) to take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles leased by any Lessee hereunder and (iii) to peaceably enter upon the premises of any Lessee or other premises where Lease Vehicles may be located and take possession of all or a portion of the Lease Vehicles and thenceforth hold, possess and enjoy the same free from any right of any Lessee, or its successors or assigns, and to use such Lease Vehicles for any purpose whatsoever.
(b)    During the continuance of a Liquidation Event, the Servicer shall return any or all Lease Vehicles that are Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers in accordance
27
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


with the instructions of the Lessor. To the extent any Manufacturer fails to accept any such Program Vehicles under the terms of the applicable Manufacturer Program, the Lessor shall have the right to otherwise dispose of such Program Vehicles and to direct the Servicer to dispose of such Program Vehicles in accordance with its instructions.
(c)    Notwithstanding the exercise of any rights or remedies pursuant to this Sub-Clause 9.4 (Liquidation Event and Non-Performance of Certain Covenants), the Lessor will, nevertheless, have a right to recover from such Lessee any and all amounts (for the avoidance of doubt, as limited by Sub-Clause 9.5 (Measure of Damages)) as may be then due.
(d)    In addition, following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, the Lessor shall have all of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims vis-a-vis each Lessee, necessary or desirable to allow the Spanish Security Trustee to exercise the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims given to the Spanish Security Trustee pursuant to Sub-Clause 10.2 (Rights of the Spanish Security Trustee upon Amortization Event or Certain Other Events of Default) of the Spanish Facility Agreement, and each Lessee acknowledges that it has hereby granted to the Lessor all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims granted by the Lessor to the Spanish Security Trustee pursuant to Clause 10 of the Spanish Facility Agreement and that the Spanish Security Trustee may act in lieu of the Lessor in the exercise of all such rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims.
(e)    The Spanish Security Trustee may only take possession of, or exercise any of the rights or remedies specified in this Agreement with respect to, such number of Lease Vehicles necessary to generate disposition proceeds in an aggregate amount sufficient to pay the Spanish Note with respect to which a Liquidation Event is then continuing as set forth in the Issuer Facility Agreement, taking into account the receipt of proceeds of all other vehicles being disposed of that have been pledged to secure such Spanish Note.
9.5    Measure of Damages
If a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event occurs and the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee exercises the remedies granted to the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee under Sub-Clause 8.6 (Preservation of rights), this Clause 9 (Default and Remedies Therefor) or Sub-Clause 10.2 of the Spanish Facility Agreement, the amount that the Lessor shall be permitted to recover from any Lessee as payment shall be equal to:
(a)    all Rent for each Lease Vehicle leased by such Lessee hereunder to the extent accrued and unpaid as of the earlier of the date of the return to the Lessor of such Lease Vehicle or disposition by the Servicer of such Lease Vehicle in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all other payments payable under this Agreement by such Lessee, accrued and unpaid as of such date; plus
(b)    any reasonable out-of-pocket damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses that the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee will have sustained by reason of such a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event, together with reasonable sums for such attorneys’ fees and such expenses as will be expended or incurred in the seizure, storage, rental or sale of the Lease Vehicles leased by such Lessee hereunder or in the enforcement of any right or privilege hereunder or in any consultation or action in such connection, in each case to the extent reasonably attributable to such Lessee; plus
(c)    interest from time to time on amounts due from such Lessee and unpaid under this Agreement at EURIBOR plus 1.0% computed from the date of such a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event or the date payments were originally due to the Lessor by such Lessee under this Agreement or from the date of each expenditure by the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee, as applicable, that is recoverable from such Lessee pursuant to this Clause 8.6 (Default and Remedies Therefor), as applicable, to and including the date payments are made by such Lessee.
28
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


9.6    Servicer Default
Any of the following events will constitute a default of the Servicer (a “Servicer Default”) as that term is used herein:
(a)    the failure of the Servicer to comply with or perform any provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document and such failure is, in the opinion of the Spanish Security Trustee materially prejudicial to the Spanish Noteholder and in the case of a default which is remediable, such default continues for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of the date written notice is delivered by the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee to the Servicer or the date an Authorized Officer of the Servicer obtains actual knowledge thereof;
(b)    an Event of Bankruptcy occurs with respect to the Servicer;
(c)    the failure of the Servicer to make any payment when due from it hereunder or under any of the other Spanish Related Documents or to deposit any Spanish Collections received by it into the Spanish Transaction Account when required under the Spanish Related Documents and, in each case, unless such failure is as a result of an administrative or technical error in such case payment has been made within three (3) Business Days;
(d)    if (I) any representation or warranty made by the Servicer relating to the Spanish Collateral in any Spanish Related Document is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached or is false or misleading as of the date of the making thereof or any schedule, certificate, financial statement, report, notice, or other writing relating to the Spanish Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Servicer to the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee pursuant to any Spanish Related Document is false or misleading on the date as of which the facts therein set forth are stated or certified, (II) such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood is, in the opinion of the Spanish Security Trustee materially prejudicial to the Spanish Noteholder, and (III) if such inaccuracy, breach or falsehood can be remedied, the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation, warranty or writing was inaccurate, incorrect, breached, false or misleading, as the case may be, shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for at least fourteen (14) consecutive days after the earlier of (x) the date of the receipt of written notice thereof from the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee to the Servicer and (y) the date an Authorized Officer of the Servicer obtains actual knowledge of such circumstance or condition;
(e)    a Lease Event of Default occurs which gives rise to a right for the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee to serve a Master Lease Termination Notice; or
(f)    a Liquidation Event occurs.
In the event of a Servicer Default, the Lessor or the Spanish Security Trustee, in each case acting pursuant to Sub-Clause 9.23(d) (Servicer Default) of the Spanish Facility Agreement, shall have the right to replace the Servicer as servicer.
For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Servicer Default, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Servicer Default ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Servicer Default will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the Spanish Related Documents.
9.7    Indemnity relating to the services provided under this Agreement
The Servicer shall fully indemnify and hold the Lessor harmless in respect of any and all labour and social security liabilities resulting, directly or indirectly, from the Servicer’s failure to perform its labour and social security obligations under applicable laws.
9.8    Application of Proceeds
The proceeds of any sale or other disposition pursuant to Sub-Clause 9.2 (Effect of Lease Event of Default) or Sub-Clause 9.3 (Rights of Lessor Upon Lease Event of Default) shall be applied by the Lessor in accordance with the terms of the Spanish Related Documents.

Each Lessee acknowledges that the Lessor has pledged or will pledge all of its rights under this Agreement to the Spanish Security Trustee pursuant to the Spanish Security Documents. Accordingly, each Lessee agrees that:
(a)    upon the occurrence of a Lease Event of Default or Liquidation Event, the Spanish Security Trustee may exercise (for and on behalf of the Lessor) any right or remedy against such Lessee provided for herein and such Lessee will not interpose as a defense that such claim should have been asserted by the Lessor;

15    NON-LIABILITY OF LESSOR
As between the Lessor and each Lessee, acceptance for lease of each Lease Vehicle pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.1(f) (Lease Vehicle Acceptance or Non-conforming Lease Vehicle Rejection) shall constitute such Lessee’s acknowledgment and agreement that such Lessee has fully inspected such Lease Vehicle, that such Lease Vehicle is in good order and condition and is of the manufacture, design, specifications and capacity selected by such Lessee, that such Lessee is satisfied that the same is suitable for this use.

In no event shall the Lessor be liable for any inconveniences, loss of profits or any other special, incidental, or consequential damages, whatsoever or howsoever caused (including resulting from any defect in or any theft, damage, loss or failure of any Lease Vehicle).
The Lessor shall not be responsible for any liabilities (including any loss of profit) arising from any delay in the delivery of, or failure to deliver, any Lease Vehicle to any Lessee.

SCHEDULE III
Required Contractual Criteria for Vehicle Purchasing Agreements

1    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL VEHICLE PURCHASING AGREEMENTS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY SPANISH FLEETCO
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in substance satisfy the following contractual requirements:
1.1    Parties
Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which Spanish FleetCo is a party may include contractual terms permitting the accession of Spanish OpCo (or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo) as an additional purchaser/seller.
If any Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that Spanish OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo) may purchase/sell Vehicles in accordance with the terms of such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, the obligations of Spanish FleetCo and Spanish OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo, as applicable) under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will in all cases need to be several, and provide that Spanish FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of Spanish OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as applicable).
Alternatively, existing Vehicle Purchasing Agreements to which Spanish OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo) is a party may be amended to provide that Spanish FleetCo may accede to such Vehicle Purchasing Agreements (satisfying the Spanish Required Contractual Criteria) and that Spanish FleetCo will not have any liability for the obligations of Spanish OpCo (or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation).
1.2    Separate obligations
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will satisfy the following criteria:
(a)    Spanish FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of Spanish OpCo (in its capacity as guarantor, purchaser of vehicles or otherwise) thereunder; and
(b)    to the extent that Spanish OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo) enters into or is a party to any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreements with the same Manufacturer/Dealer (each such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement to which Spanish OpCo or other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo is a party being a “Spanish OpCo Specific Agreement”), Spanish FleetCo shall not under any circumstances have any liability for the obligations of Spanish OpCo (or such other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation, as the case may be) under such Spanish OpCo Specific Agreement.
1.3    Volume Rebates etc.
A Vehicle Purchasing Agreement may provide that any bonus payment or other amount (howsoever described) payable or to be made available by a Manufacturer/Dealer as a result of Spanish FleetCo (or Spanish FleetCo and/or Spanish OpCo (and/or any other relevant Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation) under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement and/or any Spanish OpCo Specific Agreement, as applicable) meeting any minimum vehicle purchase level in that relevant year, be payable to or for the account of Spanish OpCo (rather than Spanish FleetCo). For the avoidance of doubt, Spanish FleetCo may however take the benefit of reductions applied to purchase prices applicable to vehicles as a result of any such minimum vehicle purchase levels being reached.
Notwithstanding the foregoing where a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that in the event that any minimum vehicle purchase level in the relevant year is not met:
(a)    any bonus, payment, benefit or reductions applied to purchase prices on Vehicles purchased by Spanish FleetCo or other amount (howsoever described) is recoverable by or repayable to a Manufacturer y/Dealer; or
44
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


(b)    any penalty or other amount (howsoever described) is payable to such Manufacturer/Dealer,
such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement shall provide that, in each case, such amounts will only be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from Spanish OpCo or another Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo.
1.4    Confidentiality and public disclosure of terms of Vehicle Purchasing
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will need to be disclosed to the Spanish Security Trustee and possibly other Enhancement Providers.
1.5    Non-petition
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable and unconditional covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer that such Manufacturer/Dealer shall not be entitled and shall not initiate or take any step in connection with:
(a)    liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency (or any similar or analogous proceedings or circumstances) of Spanish FleetCo; or
(b)    the appointment of an insolvency officer in relation to Spanish FleetCo or any of its assets whatsoever,
provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling one year and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
1.6    Limited recourse
Each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement will contain an irrevocable covenant or undertaking given by the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer that such Manufacturer/Dealer shall not be entitled to, and shall not, initiate or take any step in connection with the commencement of legal proceedings (howsoever described) to recover any amount owed to it by Spanish FleetCo under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement; this covenant will be unconditional except that the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer may commence legal proceedings to the extent that the only relief sought against Spanish FleetCo pursuant to such proceedings is the re-possession of relevant Vehicle(s) pursuant to applicable retention of title provisions provided for under the relevant Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, provided that, to the extent that a Vehicle Purchasing Agreement provides that such covenant or undertaking will terminate upon a given date, such date shall be no earlier than the date falling one year and one day after the Legal Final Payment Date.
2    PROVISIONS TO BE APPLIED TO ALL MANUFACTURER PROGRAMS TO BE ENTERED INTO BY A FLEETCO
Each Manufacturer Program will in substance satisfy the following additional contractual requirements:
2.1    Assignment and transfers
Each Manufacturer Program will contain terms that permit Spanish FleetCo to assign by way of security or pledge any of its rights under such agreement to the Spanish Security Trustee. Any such right to grant security to the relevant Spanish Security Trustee must be unrestricted. Unless pursuant to an Intra-Group Transfer (as defined below) by a Manufacturer (which shall not require consent from Spanish FleetCo), each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer may not assign, transfer or novate its obligations under such agreement without the prior written consent of Spanish FleetCo. Spanish FleetCo shall not provide such consent unless the Manufacturer/Dealer enters into a guarantee materially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Draft Transfer and Guarantee Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Programs) or accepts joint and several liability in respect of the transferred obligations substantially on the terms set out in Schedule IV (Draft Transfer and Joint and Several Liability Language to be included in Pro Forma Manufacturer Programs). For the purposes hereof, an “Intra-Group Transfer” means an assignment, transfer or novation by a Manufacturer of its obligations under a Manufacturer Program to an Affiliate of such Manufacturer which would satisfy the definition of “Investment Grade Manufacturer” upon
45
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


such Affiliate becoming a Manufacturer. For the avoidance of doubt, Manufacturers/Dealers may assign their rights under Manufacturer Programs without the prior written consent of Spanish FleetCo.
2.2    Set-off
Each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Manufacturer Program or under applicable law to set-off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by Spanish FleetCo in relation to Vehicles ordered by (but not delivered to) Spanish FleetCo by such Manufacturer/Dealer under that Manufacturer Program, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Spanish FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program, provided that, each Vehicle Purchasing Agreement entered into or renewed on or after the Closing Date will provide that the Manufacturer /Dealer expressly waives (to the extent that it is able to do so under applicable law) any right that it would otherwise have under such Vehicle Purchasing Agreement or under applicable law to set-off (i) any amount of unpaid purchase price owed to such Manufacturer/Dealer by Spanish FleetCo under that Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, against (ii) amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Spanish FleetCo under that Manufacturer Program or any other Vehicle Purchasing Agreement, save and except in relation to any Manufacturer Programme with Daimler AG, Seat, S.A., Volkswagen Group España Distribución, S.A. and/or any of their respective Affiliates or successors or any corporation into which such entities may be merged or converted or with which they may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation of such entities (the “Non-Accepting Entities”) or any Dealers or agents (or Affiliates or successors thereof) selling Vehicles manufactured or purchased from the Non-Accepting Entities if such Manufacturer Programme does not provide for waiver of set-off in accordance with paragraph 2.2 (Set-off) hereof, in which case such amounts may be reclaimed from, payable by, or otherwise recoverable from Spanish FleetCo.
Notwithstanding the foregoing the Manufacturer/Dealers will be entitled to set off any amount owed by Spanish FleetCo in respect of turn-back related damages against any amount of Repurchase Price owed by it to Spanish FleetCo. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to procure that each Manufacturer Program will provide that the Manufacturer/Dealer expressly waives all rights to set-off (however arising and whether at law or in equity) any amount:
(a)    owed to it by Spanish OpCo under such Manufacturer Program; or
(b)    owed to it by Spanish OpCo (or any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo) under any other agreement (including any Spanish OpCo Specific Agreement),
in any such case against amounts owed by the Manufacturer/Dealer to Spanish FleetCo under the relevant Manufacturer Program.
2.3    Manufacturer’s/Dealer’s obligations to be ‘unconditional’
No Manufacturer Program may contain terms that provide that the Repurchase Obligations of the Manufacturer/Dealer are conditional in any respect other than, in relation to (a) a force majeure event1 or (b) compliance with applicable turn-back procedures (including any Programme Minimum Term or Programme Maximum Term) and/or (c) turn-back standards in relation to the condition of the relevant Vehicle. For the avoidance of doubt, no Manufacturer Program may provide that the obligations of the Manufacturer/Dealer thereunder are conditional upon:
(a)    any minimum number of Vehicles being purchased (i) by Spanish FleetCo under such Manufacturer Program; and/or (ii) by Spanish OpCo or any other Person under such Manufacturer Program or any Spanish OpCo Specific Agreement; or
(b)    the solvency of Spanish FleetCo; or
1 For these purposes, a 'force majeure event' will be constituted by any event which (a) was not foreseen by the parties, (b) is outside their control and could not have been avoided by taking due care or by compliance in all material respects with obligations under the VPA and (c) prevents performance of the obligations of one or more parties under the contract.
46
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010


(c)    the solvency of any other Affiliate of The Hertz Corporation other than Spanish FleetCo.
2.4    Termination provisions
To the extent that a Manufacturer/Dealer requires express termination provisions to be included in any Manufacturer Program, such Manufacturer Program may provide that a Manufacturer/Dealer is entitled (upon expiry of a predetermined notice period or otherwise) to terminate such agreement before its scheduled expiry date upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g. liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, failure to pay, late payment, partial payment, breach or serious breach of obligations, or any similar or analogous events); provided always that the Manufacturer/Dealer shall not under any circumstances have the right to terminate its obligations (subject to and in accordance with any eligibility criteria and Programme Minimum Term or Programme Maximum Term) to repurchase (or, if applicable to perform its guaranteed obligations thereunder) in respect of any Vehicle shipped to Spanish FleetCo or its order prior to the termination of such Manufacturer Program.
2.5    Retention of title in favour of Spanish FleetCo
The Manufacturer Program entered into with the Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers will, where credit terms are made available to the relevant Manufacturer/Dealer (in relation to the payment by it of applicable repurchase prices for Vehicles) provide that title to the relevant Vehicle will remain with Spanish FleetCo until the sale proceeds are received by Spanish FleetCo. In practice Spanish FleetCo may return the registration documents for a Vehicle when it is turned back to such Top Two Non-Investment Grade Manufacturers.
47
WEIL:\96789897\1\52396.0010

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Participant (defined hereafter) pursuant to the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), in combination with a Long Term Incentive Award Summary (the “Award Summary”). The Award Summary, which identifies the person to whom the restricted stock units are granted (the “Participant”) and specifies the date of grant of this Award (the “Grant Date”) and other details of this Award under the Plan, and the electronic acceptance of this Agreement, are incorporated in this Agreement by reference.
1.Grant and Acceptance of RSUs.
(a)The Company hereby evidences and confirms its grant to the Participant, effective as of the Grant Date, of the number of restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units” or “RSUs”) set forth on the Award Summary.
(b)The Participant must accept this Award within ninety (90) days after notification that the Award is available for acceptance and in accordance with the instructions provided by the Company. The Award may be rescinded upon the action of the Company, in its sole discretion, if the Award is not accepted within ninety (90) days after notification is sent to the Participant indicating availability for acceptance.
(c)This Agreement and the RSUs are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern. Any capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.
2.Vesting of RSUs.
(a)Generally. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, the RSUs shall vest (and the Restriction Period applicable to the RSUs shall lapse) on the dates provided in the Award Summary (each, a “Vesting Date”), subject to the continued employment of the Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary through the applicable Vesting Date.
(b)Termination of Employment.
(i)General. If the Participant’s employment terminates (whether by the Participant or by the Company or a Subsidiary) for any reason other than a termination due to death or Disability (and except as provided in Article IX of the Plan), then any outstanding RSUs shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.
(ii)Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability, then a number of RSUs shall vest (and the Restriction Period shall lapse) immediately upon such termination equal to the number of RSUs multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed from the Grant Date through the date of termination, and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Restriction Period, as provided in Section 7.5(a) of the Plan. Such vested RSUs shall be settled as provided in Section 3. Any unvested RSUs after giving effect to the preceding sentences shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.
(iii)Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control, any outstanding RSUs shall be treated in accordance with the terms of Article IX of the Plan.
3.Settlement. Not later than the 30th day following the Vesting Date with respect to any RSUs, the Company shall issue to the Participant one share of Common Stock underlying each vested RSU (subject to Section 7(f) of this Agreement and Section 11.9 of the Plan in the case of RSUs that are “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A).

4.Forfeiture for Competition, Financial Restatements, and Clawback. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the RSUs shall be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 7.6 of the Plan if, during the Covered Period, the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct. In the event that the Participant commits misconduct, fraud or gross negligence (whether or not such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence is deemed or could be deemed to be an event constituting Cause) and as a result of, or in connection with, such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence, the Company restates any of its financial statements, then the RSUs will be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 7.7 of the Plan. The RSUs shall also be subject to any claw back policy or compensation recovery policy or such other similar policy of the Company in effect from time to time.
5.Issuance of Shares.
(a)The shares of Common Stock issued in settlement of the RSUs shall be registered in the Participant’s name, or, if applicable, in the names of the Participant’s heirs or estate. In the Company’s discretion, such shares may be issued either in certificated form or in uncertificated, book entry form. The certificate or book entry account shall bear such restrictive legends or restrictions as the Company, in its sole discretion, shall require. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the RSUs.
(b)To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the Company may postpone the issuance and delivery of any shares of Common Stock provided for under this Agreement for so long as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable to satisfy the following: (1) the completion or amendment of any registration of such shares or satisfaction of any exemption from registration under any securities law, rule, or regulation; (2) compliance with any requests for representations; and (3) receipt of proof satisfactory to the Company that a person seeking such shares on the Participant’s behalf upon the Participant’s Disability (if necessary), or upon the Participant’s estate’s behalf after the death of the Participant, is appropriately authorized.
6.Participant’s Rights with Respect to the RSUs.
(a)Restrictions on Transferability. Except as provided in Section 11.1 of the Plan, the RSUs may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated other than with the consent of the Company or by will or by the laws of descent and distribution to the estate of the Participant upon the Participant’s death.
(b)No Rights as Stockholder. The Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock corresponding to the RSUs granted hereby unless and until shares of Common Stock are issued to the Participant.
(c)No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time, or confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such termination results in (i) the failure of any Award to vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or (iii) any other adverse effect on the individual’s interests under the Plan).
(d)No Right to Future Grants; Extraordinary Item of Compensation. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the RSUs, the Participant acknowledges: (i) that the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (ii) that the Award does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards; (iii) that participation in the Plan is voluntary; (iv) that the value of the RSUs is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; and (v) that the future value of the Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty.
7.Miscellaneous.
(a)Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than the parties to this Agreement or their respective successors or assigns any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of any agreement or any provision contained in this Agreement.

(b)Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by the Company or the Participant without the prior written consent of the other party, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the Company, subject to Section 4.4 and Article IX of the Plan.
(c)Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Award Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Company at its principal office to the attention of the Secretary, and to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected on the Company’s records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if delivered personally or sent by certified or express mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by any recognized international equivalent of such delivery. All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been received on the date of delivery if delivered personally or on the third business day after mailing.
(d)Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on the RSUs as determined in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Plan, or with the consent of the Participant. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented orally.
(e)Interpretation. The Committee shall have full power and discretion to construe and interpret the Plan (and any rules and regulations issued thereunder) and this Award. Any determination or interpretation by the Committee under or pursuant to the Plan or this Award shall be final and binding and conclusive on all persons affected hereby.
(f)Tax Withholding; Section 409A.
(i)The Company shall have the right and power to deduct from all amounts paid to the Participant in cash or shares (whether under the Plan or otherwise) or to require the Participant to remit to the Company promptly upon notification of the amount due, an amount (which may include shares of Common Stock) up to the maximum statutory withholding rate imposed by federal, state or local or foreign tax laws with respect to the RSUs. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Committee shall have been made to satisfy the statutory minimum withholding tax obligations applicable with respect to such RSUs. To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the Company may defer payments of cash or issuance or delivery of Common Stock until such requirements are satisfied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Participant may elect to tender shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the RSUs) to satisfy, in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld (provided that such amount shall not be in excess of the minimum amount required to satisfy the statutory withholding tax obligations).
(ii)It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder to the extent applicable, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A and any similar state or local law.
(g) Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware regardless of the application of rules of conflict of law that would apply the laws of any other jurisdiction.
(h) Employee Data Privacy. The Participant authorizes any Affiliate of the Company that employs the Participant or that otherwise has or lawfully obtains personal data relating to the Participant to divulge or transfer such personal data to the Company or to a third party, in each case in any jurisdiction, if and to the extent appropriate in connection with this Agreement or the administration of the Plan.
(i) Consent to Electronic Delivery. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the RSUs, the Participant hereby consents to the delivery of information (including, without limitation, information required to be delivered to the Participant pursuant to applicable securities laws) regarding
3



the Company and the Subsidiaries, the Plan, this Agreement and the RSUs via Company web site or other electronic delivery.



(j) Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any statute or public policy, then only the portions of this Agreement which violate such statute or public policy shall be stricken, and all portions of this Agreement which do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, it is the parties’ intent that any court order striking any portion of this Agreement should modify the terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties’ under this Agreement.

The number of PSUs that the Participant actually earns will be determined by the level of achievement of the Performance Goals in accordance with the Performance Vesting Terms contained in Exhibit A.
(b)The Participant must accept this Award within ninety (90) days after notification that the Award is available for acceptance and in accordance with the instructions provided by the Company. The Award may be rescinded upon the action of the Company, in its sole discretion, if the Award is not accepted within ninety (90) days after notification is sent to the Participant indicating availability for acceptance.
(c)This Agreement and the PSUs are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern. Any capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.
2.Performance Period and Goals; Vesting.
(a)Performance Period and Goals. The Performance Period will be as provided in Exhibit A. The number of PSUs earned by the Participant for the applicable Performance Period will be determined at the end of such Performance Period based on the level of achievement of the Performance Goal(s) in accordance with Exhibit A. All determinations of whether Performance Goal(s) have been achieved, the number of PSUs earned by the Participant, and all other matters related to this Section 2 shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion.
(b)Vesting. The PSUs are subject to forfeiture until they vest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the PSUs will vest and become nonforfeitable on the date provided in Exhibit A (the “Vesting Date”), subject to (i) the achievement of the minimum threshold Performance Goals for payout set forth in Exhibit A, and (ii) the continued employment of the Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date. The number of PSUs that vest and become payable under this Agreement shall be determined by the Company based on the level of achievement of the Performance Goal(s) set forth in Exhibit A and shall be rounded to the nearest whole PSU.
(c)Forfeiture Due to Non-Achievement of Performance Goals. All unearned PSUs, as determined in accordance with Exhibit A, shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled.
(d)Termination of Employment.
(i)General. If the Participant’s employment terminates (whether by the Participant or by the Company or a Subsidiary) for any reason other than a termination due to death or Disability (and except as provided in Article IX of the Plan), then any outstanding PSUs shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.

1111111


(ii)Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, then the Participant or, as the case may be, the Participant’s estate, shall retain a portion of his or her PSUs equal to the number of PSUs multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed from the commencement of the applicable Performance Period through the date of termination, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period (the “Retained Award”), as provided in Section 6.6(a) of the Plan. Such Retained Award will remain outstanding and will be eligible to vest and settle as provided in Section 3 and Exhibit A. Any remaining PSUs not included in the Retained Award after giving effect to the preceding sentences shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.
(e)Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control, any outstanding PSUs shall be treated in accordance with the terms of Article IX of the Plan.
3.Certification and Settlement of PSUs.
(a)As soon as administratively feasible and no later than March 15 following the end of the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends, the Committee shall certify, in writing, whether or not, and to what extent, the Performance Goals have been achieved. The date on which the Committee makes such certification is referred to in this Agreement as the “Certification Date”.
(b)On or before the 30th day following the Vesting Date, the Company will issue to the Participant one share of Common Stock underlying each vested PSU (subject to Section 7(f) of this Agreement and Section 11.9 of the Plan in the case of PSUs that are “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A).
4.Forfeiture for Competition, Financial Restatements, and Clawback. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the PSUs shall be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 6.7 of the Plan if, during the Covered Period, the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct. In the event that the Participant commits misconduct, fraud or gross negligence (whether or not such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence is deemed or could be deemed to be an event constituting Cause) and as a result of, or in connection with, such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence, the Company restates any of its financial statements, then the PSUs will be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 6.8 of the Plan. The PSUs shall also be subject to any claw back policy or compensation recovery policy or such other similar policy of the Company in effect from time to time.
5.Issuance of Shares.
(a)The shares of Common Stock issued in settlement of the PSUs shall be registered in the Participant’s name, or, if applicable, in the names of the Participant’s heirs or estate. In the Company’s discretion, such shares may be issued either in certificated form or in uncertificated, book entry form. The certificate or book entry account shall bear such restrictive legends or restrictions as the Company, in its sole discretion, shall require. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the PSUs.
(b)To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the Company may postpone the issuance and delivery of any shares of Common Stock provided for under this Agreement for so long as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable to satisfy the following: (1) the completion or amendment of any registration of such shares or satisfaction of any exemption from registration under any securities law, rule, or regulation; (2) compliance with any requests for representations; and (3) receipt of proof satisfactory to the Company that a person seeking such shares on the Participant’s behalf upon the Participant’s Disability (if necessary), or upon the Participant’s estate’s behalf after the death of the Participant, is appropriately authorized.
6.Participant’s Rights with Respect to the PSUs.
(a)Restrictions on Transferability. Except as provided in Section 11.1 of the Plan, the PSUs may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated other than with the consent of the Company or by will or by the laws of descent and distribution to the estate of the Participant upon the Participant’s death.
(b)No Rights as Stockholder. The Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock corresponding to the PSUs granted hereby unless and until shares of Common Stock are issued to the Participant.

2
2222222


(c)No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time, or confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such termination results in (i) the failure of any Award to vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or (iii) any other adverse effect on the individual’s interests under the Plan).
(d)No Right to Future Grants; Extraordinary Item of Compensation. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the PSUs, the Participant acknowledges: (i) that the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (ii) that the Award does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards; (iii) that participation in the Plan is voluntary; (iv) that the value of the PSUs is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; and (v) that the future value of the Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty.
7.Miscellaneous.
(a)Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than the parties to this Agreement or their respective successors or assigns any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of any agreement or any provision contained in this Agreement.
(b)Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by the Company or the Participant without the prior written consent of the other party, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the Company, subject to Section 4.4 and Article IX of the Plan.
(c)Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Award Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Company at its principal office to the attention of the Secretary, and to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected on the Company’s records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if delivered personally or sent by certified or express mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by any recognized international equivalent of such delivery. All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been received on the date of delivery if delivered personally or on the third business day after mailing.
(d)Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on the PSUs as determined in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Plan, or with the consent of the Participant. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented orally.
(e)Interpretation. The Committee shall have full power and discretion to construe and interpret the Plan (and any rules and regulations issued thereunder) and this Award. Any determination or interpretation by the Committee under or pursuant to the Plan or this Award shall be final and binding and conclusive on all persons affected hereby.
(f)Tax Withholding; Section 409A.
(i)The Company shall have the right and power to deduct from all amounts paid to the Participant in cash or shares (whether under the Plan or otherwise) or to require the Participant to remit to the Company promptly upon notification of the amount due, an amount (which may include shares of Common Stock) up to the maximum statutory withholding rate imposed by federal, state or local or foreign tax laws with respect to the PSUs. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Committee shall have been made to satisfy the statutory minimum withholding tax obligations applicable with respect to such PSUs. To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the Company may defer payments of cash or issuance or delivery of Common Stock until such requirements are satisfied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Participant may elect to tender shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the PSUs) to satisfy, in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld (provided that such amount shall not be in excess of the minimum amount required to satisfy the statutory withholding tax obligations).

FORM OF EXECUTIVE SIGN-ON PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

For selective use with sign-on grants

THIS PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of the Grant Date set forth on the signature page hereof, is entered into by and between Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [Insert Name] (the “Participant”).
1.    Grant and Acceptance of Performance Stock Units. The Company hereby evidences and confirms its grant to the Participant, effective as of the Grant Date, of the number of performance stock units (the “Performance Stock Units”) set forth on the signature page hereof. This Agreement is subordinate to, and the terms and conditions of the Performance Stock Units granted hereunder are subject to, the terms and conditions of the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which are incorporated by reference herein. If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the terms of the Plan, except as specified herein, the terms of the Plan shall govern. Any capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.
2.    Vesting of Performance Stock Units.
    (a)    Performance Targets. [Insert vesting criteria (i.e., the “Performance Target”) for the Performance Stock Units subject to this Agreement.] When a Performance Target has been achieved (as determined by the Company), the applicable Performance Stock Units shall be referred to as “Vesting Eligible PSUs.”
(b)    Vesting. Any Vesting Eligible PSUs shall be deemed to vest (and the Restriction Period shall lapse) [Insert vesting date(s)/events] (the “Vesting Date”), subject to the Participant’s continued employment or service with the Company and its Subsidiaries [through the][as of each] Vesting Date. In the event that an acquirer refuses to assume or continue the Vesting Eligible PSUs as contemplated in Section 9.1 of the Plan, then such Vesting Eligible PSUs shall be treated in the same manner as Restricted Stock Units as provided in Section 9.2(a) of the Plan.
(c)    Forfeiture Due to Performance Target Non-Achievement. If a Performance Target has not been achieved [Insert deadline for achieving the Performance Target(s)], any Performance Stock Units hereunder associated with such Performance Target shall immediately be forfeited and canceled as of the [insert deadline date].
(d)    Termination of Employment.
(i)    General. If the Participant’s employment terminates (whether by the Participant or by the Company or a Subsidiary) for any reason other than due to [Insert basis for a good reason separation from the Company], [Insert if applicable: that occurs on or following [a specified date], but on or prior to the Vesting Date (an “Eligible Good Leaver Termination”)], then any outstanding Performance Stock Units shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.
(ii)    Eligible Good Leaver Termination. If the Participant’s employment is terminated pursuant to an Eligible Good Leaver Termination, [Insert early vesting rights upon a Good Leaver Termination]. Any Vesting Eligible PSUs that vest pursuant to this Section 2(d)(ii) shall be settled as provided in Section 3. Any unvested Performance Stock Units after giving effect to the preceding sentences shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s Eligible Good Leaver Termination.
(iii) Release Condition. The Participant shall be entitled to receive the accelerated vesting provided for in the foregoing Section 2(d)(ii) of this Agreement only if [he/she] executes and does not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company and its Subsidiaries within 60 days following (but in no event prior to) the date of the Eligible Good Leaver Termination.
1

    
(e)    [Insert any appropriate clarifying provisions related to the calculation of awards upon a Change in Control, consistent with the Plan].
3.    Settlement. Subject to the following sentence, not later than the 30th day following the date on which the vesting and lapse of the Restriction Period occurs with respect to any Performance Stock Units, the Company shall issue to the Participant one share of Common Stock underlying each Performance Stock Unit as to which the Restriction Period has lapsed. Upon issuance, such shares of Common Stock may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated in compliance with all applicable law, this Agreement and any other agreement to which such shares are subject. The Participant’s settlement rights pursuant to this Agreement shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
4.    Forfeiture for Competition. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, if, during the Covered Period, the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct, then any Performance Stock Units for which the Restriction Period has not then lapsed shall automatically terminate and be canceled effective as of the date on which the Participant first engaged in such Wrongful Conduct. If the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct during the Covered Period or if the Participant’s employment is terminated for Cause, the Participant shall pay to the Company in cash any Performance-Based Financial Gain the Participant realized from the lapse of the Restriction Period applicable to all or a portion of the Performance Stock Units with respect to which the Restriction Period lapsed within the Wrongful Conduct Period. By entering into this Agreement, the Participant hereby consents to and authorizes the Company and the Subsidiaries to deduct from any amounts payable by such entities to the Participant any amounts the Participant owes to the Company under this Section 4 to the extent permitted by law. This right of setoff is in addition to any other remedies the Company may have against the Participant for the Participant’s breach of this Section 4. The Participant’s obligations under this Section 4 shall be cumulative of any similar obligations the Participant has under the Plan, this Agreement, any Company policy, standard or code (including, without limitation, the Company’s Standards of Business Conduct), or any other agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary.
    5.    Effect of Financial Restatements. In the event that the Participant commits misconduct, fraud or gross negligence (whether or not such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence is deemed or could be deemed to be an event constituting Cause) and as a result of, or in connection with, such misconduct, fraud or gross negligence, the Company restates any of its financial statements, then the Committee may require any or all of the following:
(a)    that the Participant forfeit some or all of the Performance Stock Units subject to this Agreement held by the Participant at the time of such restatement,
(b)    that the Participant forfeit (or pay to the Company) some or all of the cash or the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant at the time of such restatement that had been received within the three-year period prior to the date that the Company is required to prepare a financial restatement in settlement of Performance Stock Units subject to this Agreement, and
(c)    that the Participant pay to the Company in cash all or a portion of the proceeds that the Participant realized from the sale of shares of Common Stock that had been received within the three-year period prior to the date that the Company is required to prepare a financial restatement in settlement of any Performance Stock Units subject to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Committee determines that the rules and regulations implementing Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act require a longer or different clawback time period than the three-year period contemplated by Sections 5(b) and (c), such three-year period shall be deemed extended (but not reduced) to the extent necessary to be consistent with such rules and regulations.
    6.    Issuance of Shares.
(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Participant may not sell or transfer the shares of Common Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units except in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
(b)    The shares of Common Stock issued in settlement of the Performance Stock Units shall be registered in the Participant’s name, or, if applicable, in the names of the Participant’s heirs or estate. In the Company’s discretion, such shares may be issued either in certificated form or in
2

    
uncertificated, book entry form. The certificate or book entry account shall bear such restrictive legends or restrictions as the Company, in its sole discretion, shall require. If delivered in certificated form, the Company may deliver a share certificate to the Participant or to the Participant’s designated broker on the Participant’s behalf. If the Participant is deceased (or if Disabled and if necessary) at the time that a delivery of share certificates is to be made, the certificates shall be delivered to the Participant’s estate, executor, administrator, legally authorized guardian or personal representative (as applicable).
(c)    To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the grant of the Performance Stock Units and issuance of shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Common Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Performance Stock Units shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, as a condition to the settlement of the Performance Stock Units, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
(d)    The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units.
(e)    To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the Company may postpone the issuance and delivery of any shares of Common Stock provided for under this Agreement for so long as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable to satisfy the following: (i) the completion or amendment of any registration of such shares or satisfaction of any exemption from registration under any securities law, rule, or regulation; (ii) compliance with any requests for representations; and (iii) receipt of proof satisfactory to the Company that a person seeking such shares on the Participants behalf upon the Participants Disability (if necessary), or upon the Participants estates behalf after the death of the Participant, is appropriately authorized.
    7.    Participants Rights with Respect to the Performance Stock Units.
(a)    Restrictions on Transferability. The Performance Stock Units granted hereby may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated other than with the consent of the Company or by will or by the laws of descent and distribution to the estate of the Participant upon the Participants death; provided that any such permitted transferee shall acknowledge and agree in writing, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan as if such beneficiary or the estate were the Participant. Any attempt by the Participant, directly or indirectly, to offer, transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Performance Stock Units or any interest therein or any rights relating thereto without complying with the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, including this Section 7(a), shall be void and of No effect. The Company shall not be required to recognize on its books any action taken in contravention of these restrictions.
(b)    No Rights as Stockholder. The Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock corresponding to the Performance Stock Units granted hereby unless and until shares of Common Stock are issued to the Participant in respect thereof.
    8.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns.

(b)    Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by the Company or the Participant without the prior written consent of the other party, except, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of assignments by the Company subject to Section 4.4 and Article IX of the Plan.
(c)    No Right to Continued Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the Participant’s employment or service provider relationship at any time, or confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ or engagement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such termination results in (i) the failure of any Award to vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or (iii) any other adverse effect on the individual’s interests under the Plan). Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer on the Participant the right to receive any future Awards under the Plan.
(d)    Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if delivered personally or sent by certified or express mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by any recognized international equivalent of such delivery, to the Company or the Participant, as the case may be, at the following addresses or to such other address as the Company or the Participant, as the case may be, shall specify by notice to the other:

Nor does any part of this Agreement limit Executive’s right to testify regarding sexual harassment or criminal conduct, whether in court pursuant to subpoena or a court order or before a state legislature at the legislature’s written request. However, Executive is waiving all rights to recover money or other relief in connection with such an investigation or charge filed by Executive or any other individual, or by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other federal, state, or local agency. Despite the above, this Agreement does
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 7


not limit Executive’s right to receive money properly awarded by the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission as a reward for providing information to that agency.
10.    Claims Released by Hertz: Hertz releases Executive from any and all claims, demands, judgments, causes of action, damages, expenses, costs, attorneys’ fees, and liabilities or every nature and kind that can be lawfully released and discharged based upon acts or omissions by Executive occurring before Hertz signed this Agreement and of which Hertz had knowledge at the time it signed this Agreement. Hertz covenants and agrees not to at any time file a suit or claim of any kind against Executive concerning any of the claims released by Hertz herein.
11.    Time to Consult Counsel, Consider and Revoke Release: Executive acknowledges and agrees that Hertz has advised Executive (i) to read this Agreement and carefully consider all of its terms before signing it; (ii) to consult with an attorney of Executive’s choice before signing it; (iii) that Executive has twenty-one (21) calendar days in which to consider this Agreement before signing and (iv) that Executive has the un-waivable right to revoke this Agreement within seven (7) calendar days after signing it (the “Revocation Period”), by emailing Eric Leef at [*] and revoking Executive’s election in writing during the Revocation Period.
12.    Warranties and Representations: Executive warrants and represents as follows:
(a)    Executive has not filed or otherwise pursued any charges, complaints, lawsuits, or claims of any nature against any of the Released Parties arising out of or relating to events occurring prior to and through the date of this Agreement with respect to any matter covered by this Agreement, and Executive has no knowledge of any fact or circumstance that Executive would reasonably expect to result in any claim against any of the Released Parties in respect of any of the foregoing.

(b)    That through the Separation Date Executive has not: (i) engaged in any conduct that constitutes willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct with respect to Executive’s employment duties with Hertz which has resulted or will result in material economic harm to Hertz; (ii) knowingly violated the Hertz Standards of Business Conduct or any similar policy; (iii) facilitated or engaged in, or attained knowledge of, any financial or accounting improprieties or irregularities of Hertz; or (iv) knowingly made any incorrect or false statements in any certifications Executive made relating to filings of Hertz required under applicable securities laws or management representation letters, and has no knowledge of any incorrect or false statements in any Hertz filings required under applicable securities laws; in either of the case of clause (iii) or (iv) of this Section of this Agreement, except with respect to any information that has been provided through the Separation Date by a third-party auditor in an oral or written report to both Executive and the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof). Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Hertz is entering into this Agreement in reliance on the representations contained in this Section of this Agreement which representations constitute terms of this Agreement.
(c)    That Executive has carefully read this Agreement and that Executive fully understands its terms and is entering into this Agreement voluntarily. Executive also warrants and represents that Executive has received valuable consideration in exchange for signing this Agreement that Executive would not otherwise be entitled to receive. Executive further warrants and represents having fully and properly reported all hours worked, having been fully and properly paid all wages and benefits Executive should have been paid, having received all required breaks in accordance with state and federal laws, and having been reimbursed for any expenses incurred in Executive’s employment, through the last regular pay day before signing

AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 9


this Agreement. Executive warrants and represents that Executive has no work-related injury or illness at the time of signing this Agreement for which Executive has not already filed a claim.
13.    Confidential Information: For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean any trade secret or other non-public information concerning the financial data, strategic business plans, product development (or other proprietary product data), customer lists, marketing plans and other non-public, proprietary and confidential information of Hertz or its affiliates, that, in any case, is not otherwise available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof) or known to persons in the industry generally. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive shall not at any time, without the prior written consent of Hertz, use, divulge, disclose, or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation, or other entity any Confidential Information pertaining to the business of Hertz or any of its affiliates, except if necessary in the performance of his duties prior to the Separation Date, when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of Hertz, or by any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose, or make accessible such information or if reasonably appropriate in connection with any legal process between Executive and Hertz or any of its affiliates. Executive warrants and represents to Hertz that if Executive violates this Section of this Agreement in any material respect, Executive will repay the severance benefits to Hertz in full and will be subject to such other monetary damages as Hertz may be able to prove at trial.
The parties acknowledge and agree that this Section of this Agreement is intended to be additive to and shall not be construed to limit in any way, the ethical obligations Executive has as an attorney to protect and not disclose information subject to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine, or any other applicable privilege (“Privileged Information”). In the
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 10


event Executive is asked or directed to disclose Privileged Information by order, subpoena, or other process, Executive shall, if legally permitted, provide as soon as practicable notice of such request, order, subpoena, or other process to the General Counsel of Hertz or to his or her functional equivalent. Executive shall provide such notice in sufficient time for Hertz to contest such request, order, subpoena, or other process before a court of competent jurisdiction.
14.    Non-Disparagement: Executive agrees not to do, say, or publish anything, directly or indirectly, whether verbal or in writing, that could reasonably be expected to disparage Hertz or any officer, director, employee or greater than ten percent (10%) shareholder (or beneficial owner) of Hertz, or otherwise reflect negatively on Hertz’s reputation or that of any other Released Party, or to assist, encourage, discuss, cooperate, incite, or otherwise confer with or aid any others in doing so, except as required by law. Executive specifically agrees not to post or communicate anything over the internet or on any social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) that would violate this Section of this Agreement. Further, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of Hertz, make any written or oral statement concerning the termination of Executive’s employment or any circumstances, terms or conditions relating thereto. Hertz agrees not to (and shall instruct its directors and senior officers not to) do, say, or publish anything, directly or indirectly, whether verbal or in writing, that could reasonably be expected to disparage Executive or otherwise reflect negatively on Executive’s reputation, except as required by law. Hertz specifically agrees not to post or communicate anything over the internet or on any social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) that would violate this Section of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section of this Agreement shall prevent the lawful filing or prosecution of any claim against either party in any judicial, arbitration, governmental, or other appropriate forum for adjudication of disputes, any response or disclosure by either party compelled by legal process or required by applicable law or governmental or regulatory investigation or any bona-

AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 11


fide exercise by Executive of any shareholder rights Executive may otherwise have. If Executive resides or works in Illinois, however, nothing in this Section of this Agreement limits the disclosure rights referenced in the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Rights/Claims Not Released and Additional Employee Protections.”
15.    Non-Compete: Executive expressly agrees that for twelve (12) months following Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall not directly or indirectly become associated, as an owner, partner, shareholder (other than as a holder of not in excess of five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting shares or equity of any entity ), director, officer, manager, employee, agent, consultant, or otherwise, with any car, van, or truck rental company, including but not limited to Avis Budget Group, Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Sixt rent a car, Advantage Rent a Car, Edge Auto Rental, Courier Car Rental, and any of their respective affiliates; with a Transportation Network Company, including but not limited to Uber Technologies, Inc. and Lyft, Inc.; or with any other company that competes with the business, or for the customer base, of Hertz; each of which is defined herein to be a “Competitive Business.” This Section of this Agreement shall not be deemed to (i) restrict association with any enterprise that conducts unrelated business or that has material operations outside of the geographic area that encompasses Hertz’s customer base (or where Hertz had plans at the Separation Date to enter) for so long as Executive’s role, whether direct or indirect (e.g., supervisory), is solely with respect to such unrelated business or other geographic area (as the case may be), or (ii) to restrict Executive’s activities in any way that would violate any applicable rule of professional conduct governing attorneys and/or the practice of law. Executive may also passively invest in private equity, hedge and mutual funds or similar investment vehicles without being deemed in violation of this Section 14.
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 12


16.    Non-Solicitation: Executive will not for twelve (12) months after the Separation Date directly or indirectly, alone or in aid of or through others, employ or seek to employ, or solicit, divert, or otherwise induce, or attempt to do so, or cause others to do so with a view to engage or employ, any person who is or was a managerial-level employee of Hertz as of the Separation Date, or at any time during the 12-month period preceding the Separation Date, to terminate or modify their employment relationship with Hertz or to have such individual(s) perform any services for or on behalf of any other company, individual, or other entity, provided that this paragraph of this Agreement shall not be deemed to restrict Executive’s activities in any way that would violate any applicable rule of professional conduct governing attorneys and/or the practice of law.
17.    Reasonableness and Modification: Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Released Parties, and that any violation of any such restriction will result in irreparable injury to the applicable Released Party. Executive represents and agrees that Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement will not prevent Executive from obtaining employment or otherwise earning a living at the same general level of economic benefit as is currently the case.
    The parties agree that if any portion of the provision of the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, including but not limited to the duration of such provision, the territory being covered thereby, or the type of conduct restricted therein, a Court is authorized and directed to modify the duration, geographic area, and/or other terms of such provision to the maximum benefit of Hertz as permitted by law, and, as so modified, said provision shall then be enforceable. The period of
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 13


time during which the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement shall apply shall be extended by the length of time during which Executive is deemed to be in breach of any such term, unless Hertz is aware of such breach and does not take action to cause Executive to cease his activities.
18.    Equitable Relief: Executive further agrees that in the event Executive breaches the “Non-Compete” or “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement, Hertz shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond.
19.    Fiduciary Duties/Indemnification/D&O Insurance: Executive will retain his fiduciary responsibilities to Hertz to the extent provided by law. In addition, Executive agrees to continue to abide for the required time periods by applicable provisions of the principles and guidelines set forth in the Hertz Standards of Business Conduct, the terms of which are incorporated herein, including but not limited to the restrictions on insider trading and use of Company assets and information contained therein. Hertz shall continue to indemnify Executive following his termination of employment in accordance with Hertz’ by-laws and shall continue to cover him under any applicable directors’ and officers’ or other third-party liability insurance providing “tail” coverage.
20.    Return of Company Property: All notes, reports, sketches, plans, books, keys, computers, hard copy or computer files, computer diskettes, flash drives, or other electronic storage devices, unpublished memoranda or other documents or property (other than de minimis items), including any company vehicles, which were created, developed, generated, or held or controlled by Executive during Executive’s employment and which concern or are related to Hertz’s business, whether or not containing or relating to confidential information, are the property of Hertz and will be returned to Hertz within thirty (30) calendar days of the Separation
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 14


Date. Failure to return Hertz property within such time will render this Agreement null and void; provided, that, if Hertz has knowledge of any property that has not been returned it will provide Executive with written notice of any such failure and not less than fifteen (15) days to return.
21.    Cooperation: Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with Hertz in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of Hertz which relate to events or occurrences that occurred while Executive was employed by Hertz, including, but not limited to, any litigation and/or claims that were filed and/or asserted while Executive was employed by Hertz. Any such cooperation request shall be made by Hertz on reasonable advance notice if the circumstances permit and shall take into consideration Executive’s then current business and personal commitments. Executive’s cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available for telephone conferences with outside counsel and/or Hertz personnel, being available for interviews, depositions, and/or to act as a witness on behalf of Hertz, if requested, and at the request of Hertz responding to any inquiries about the particular matter. Executive’s cooperation may also include, at Hertz’s request, consultation with Hertz on non-litigation and other business matters within Executive’s experience and expertise but only to the extent involving Executive’s knowledge of prior circumstances while employed at Hertz. Executive will also reasonably cooperate with Hertz in connection with any investigation or review by any federal, state, or local regulatory authority relating to events or occurrences that transpired while Executive was employed by Hertz. Hertz shall promptly reimburse Executive for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Executive may incur in connection with such cooperation, including, without limitation, reimbursement or direct payment as incurred of any legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by Executive if he retains counsel independent of Hertz’ counsel because such counsel has a conflict of interest in representing both Hertz and Executive, as determined
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 15


and agreed by the parties in good faith. If any such cooperation will involve more than a de minimis amount of Executive’s time, the parties shall negotiate in good faith an equitable fee arrangement. Executive shall not be required to cooperate against his own legal interests.
Nothing in this Section of this Agreement shall prevent any communications by Executive with any governmental agencies without notice to Hertz, as contemplated by the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Rights/Claims Not Released and Additional Employee Protections,” above.
22.    Tax Matters; Internal Revenue Code Section 409A:
All payments and benefits provided under or referenced in the terms of this Agreement shall be subject to tax withholdings required by applicable law and other standard payroll deductions.
The payments made pursuant to this Agreement do not constitute deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and its accompanying regulations (“Section 409A”). This Agreement shall be implemented and construed in a manner to give effect to the foregoing. In the event the parties determine that any payments hereunder would not comply with Section 409A, they will cooperate in good faith to modify this Agreement to comply with Section 409A while endeavoring to maintain the intended economic benefits hereunder. In no event shall Hertz or any Released Party be liable for any tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on Executive pursuant to Section 409A. Neither Hertz nor any of its affiliates nor any other Released Party have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Executive harmless from any such taxes, interest, or penalties, or liability for any damages related thereto.
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 16


23.    Confidential Agreement: Where it is not contrary to state and local law, the existence of this Agreement, its terms, and any severance amount paid under it, including the timing of any such payment, are confidential and may not be disclosed by Executive, except that Executive may disclose such information to members of Executive’s immediate family, tax advisors, and attorneys, and as required by applicable law, court order or subpoena or governmental or regulatory investigation or as reasonably appropriate in connection with any litigation between the parties. Executive will take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that confidentiality is maintained by any of the individuals or entities referenced above. Executive will give written notice to Hertz if Executive is requested or required pursuant to court order, judicial process, or by any regulatory authority, to reveal any information relating to the terms and conditions of this Agreement prior to providing the information.
24.    Severability: The various provisions of this Agreement and parts thereof are severable. Executive specifically agree that if any single clause or clauses or portion thereof, other than those set forth in the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Claims Released,” shall be found invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, only that part will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
25.    Entire Agreement: Executive acknowledges and agrees that no promise, inducement, or agreement has been made to or with Executive except as set forth herein. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties, and Executive understands that the terms of this Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the benefits provided to Executive herein are the entire severance benefit to which Executive is entitled, and that this Agreement supersedes any and all prior agreements between the parties concerning Executive’s severance eligibility, be they oral or in writing, including, but
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 17


not limited to, the Severance Plans, and may not be changed, modified, or rescinded except in writing, signed by both parties, and any attempt at oral modification of this Agreement shall be void and of no force or effect.
26.    Savings Clause: Executive understands and agrees that should any provision of this Agreement be declared or be determined by any court to be illegal or invalid, the validity of the remaining parts, terms, or provisions shall not be affected thereby, and said invalid part, term, or provision shall be deemed not a part of this Agreement, except as provided for otherwise in the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Reasonableness and Modification.”
27.    Waiver of Jury Trial: EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each such party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each such party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) each such party has been induced to enter into this agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Agreement.
28.    Applicable Law: This Agreement is subject to and shall be construed in accordance with Florida law without regard to any conflict of law principles. Executive and Hertz irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any suit, action, or other legal proceeding arising
CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS                                    PAGE 18


out of this Agreement, including without limitation any action commenced by Hertz for preliminary and permanent injunctive relief or other equitable relief, shall be brought in the United States District Court whose jurisdiction includes Lee County, Florida, or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Florida, (ii) consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) waive any objection which Executive may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

Confidential Severance Agreement And General Release of Claims

The parties to this Confidential Severance Agreement and General Release of Claims (“Agreement”) are Angela I. Brav (“Executive”) and Executive’s family, beneficiaries, and anyone acting on Executive’s behalf, each in their capacity as such, on the one hand, and The Hertz Corporation, including its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and any successor to its business and/or assets, (“Hertz”), on the other hand.
In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, and agreements in this Agreement, which Executive and Hertz agree constitute good and valuable consideration, the parties stipulate and mutually agree as follows:
1.    Separation from Employment: Executive’s employment with Hertz ended or will end on April 30, 2022 (the “Separation Date”). The parties agree that, except as otherwise provided or referenced in this Agreement or the settlement agreement of 2022 entered into between The Hertz Corporation and Executive (“U.K. Settlement Agreement”), neither Executive nor Hertz shall have any further rights, obligations, or duties under any other agreement or arrangement relating to severance payments and benefits due to Executive, as of or after the date of this Agreement.
2.    Resignations: Effective as of the Separation Date, Executive resigns from all director,

officer, board, or other positions Executive holds on behalf of or in Executive’s capacity as an employee of Hertz. Executive agrees to sign all appropriate documentation, if any, prepared by Hertz to facilitate these resignations, provided that Executive understands and agrees that such resignations are self-effectuating and are effective on the Separation Date.
PAGE 1


3.    Accrued Obligations: Without regard for this Agreement, Executive is entitled to receive the following accrued obligations: (a) payment of all base salary earned or accrued but not yet paid through the Separation Date; and (b) reimbursement for any and all business expenses incurred prior to the Separation Date, subject to the terms of Hertz’s expense reimbursement policy.
4.    Emergence Equity Award: The parties acknowledge and agree that, without regard for this Agreement, Executive’s separation is a “Termination without Cause” within the meaning of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“RSU Agreement”) and Employee Stock Option Agreement (“ESO Agreement”) entered into by Executive on November 16, 2021, such that the provisions of Section 2(b)(ii) of the RSU Agreement – Vesting of Restricted Stock Units; Termination Without Cause; Death or Disability - and the provisions of Section 2(b) of the ESO Agreement – Vesting and Exercisability; Termination without Cause; Death or Disability – shall apply.
5.    Severance Benefits: Provided Executive signs and does not timely revoke this Agreement and materially complies with the terms of this Agreement, and provided Executive has signed the U.K. Settlement Agreement and materially complies with its terms, Hertz shall provide Executive with severance payments and benefits, as follows:
(a)    Hertz will pay Executive One Million Nine Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($1,950,000.00) payable in equal installments over eighteen (18) months on Hertz’s regular payroll cycles, beginning with the first payroll cycle ending after the Effective Date. Hertz retains the right to deduct from one or more of such payments any monies owed by Executive to any Released Party.
(b)    Hertz will pay Executive Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($75,000.00), in a single lump sum payment to be paid within fifteen (15) business days following the Effective Date, comprising payment for Executive’s monthly rental cost on her
PAGE 2


UK apartment through December 2022, and payment to defray costs associated with her relocation.
(c)    Hertz will pay Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($25,000.00) for
executive level outplacement services directly to the provider of Executive’s choice, constituting payment for outplacement services provided for under the 2021 Severance Plan and to be reported as income to Executive on Form 1099.
(d)    Executive will be considered a participant in the 2022 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan: Corporate - Global (the “Bonus Plan”), at the level of one hundred per cent (100%) of the base salary in effect for Executive on the Separation Date and on the same terms and conditions applicable to other individuals at the Executive Vice President level, or its functional equivalent. Executive will be entitled to receive payment under the Bonus Plan, pro-rated for Executive’s 2022 service based upon the Separation Date, on the same basis such bonuses are paid to other individuals at the Executive Vice President level, or its functional equivalent. Such Bonus Plan payment, if any, will be paid to Executive not later than March 15, 2023.
(e)    Medical, health, accident insurance, and other similar healthcare arrangements for the benefit of Executive and Executive’s dependents who received such coverage as of the Separation Date, if any, shall continue under Hertz’s US-based Custom Benefit Plan, at the same level and same cost to Executive in effect under the International Benefits Program as of the Separation Date, for eighteen (18) months following the Separation Date or until Executive becomes eligible to receive benefits at a comparable level from a subsequent employer (“New Coverage”). Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s right to such coverage is contingent on Executive’s agreement to inform Hertz if Executive becomes eligible for New Coverage before Hertz’s obligations under this Section of this Agreement expire. If Executive becomes eligible for New Coverage and fails to timely inform Hertz, Hertz will be entitled to recover from Executive all premiums and
PAGE 3


claims costs paid on Executive’s behalf for coverage after Executive became eligible for New Coverage.
6.    Within fifteen (15) days of your execution of this Agreement, Hertz shall pay by wire
directly to Outten & Golden LLP, Fifty-Five Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($55,000.00) for legal fees actually incurred by you in connection with the review and negotiation of this Agreement. Outten & Golden LLP shall provide Hertz with a Form W-9 for this payment, and Hertz shall provide both Outten & Golden LLP and Executive with a Form 1099.
7.    Claims Released: Executive, on Executive’s own behalf and on behalf of Executive’s

family, heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all other persons claiming by or through Executive, each in their capacity as such, does release Hertz, its current and former divisions, parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliated companies, including but in no way limited to Hertz Europe Limited, and their successors and assigns; their current and former officers, directors, shareholders, agents and employees; the current and former employee benefit and retirement plans sponsored or maintained by Hertz, as well as any fiduciary, trustee, and administrator of such plans each in their capacity as such, (collectively the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, demands, judgments, causes of action, damages, expenses, costs, attorneys’ fees, and liabilities that can be lawfully released and discharged, including but not limited to claims for severance pay or other benefits arising under the 2021 Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Severance Plan for Senior Executives (the “2021 Severance Plan”, a predecessor plan (including the Amended and Restated Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Severance Plan for Senior Executives dated as of May 22, 2020) or any other severance policy or plan sponsored by Hertz (collectively, the “Severance Plans”). Executive understands that the claims released herein include but are not limited to all employment-related rights and claims and those relating to Executive’s separation from employment, known or unknown, at common law or under any statute, rule, regulation, order, or law, whether federal, state, or local, or on any grounds whatsoever, including
PAGE 4


without limitation, any and all claims for additional severance pay, vacation pay, bonus or other compensation; any and all claims of discrimination or harassment based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, marital status, veteran status, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, disability, handicap, age, or other unlawful discrimination; any claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Federal Civil Rights Act; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; the Older Worker’s Benefit Protection Act; the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended; the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008; the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and 1991, as amended; the National Labor Relations Act, as amended; the Equal Pay Act of 1963; the California Fair Employment and Housing Act; the California Unruh Civil Rights Act; and the Florida Civil Rights Act; or arising under any other state, federal, local, or common law, with respect to any event, matter, claim, damage, or injury arising out of Executive’s employment relationship with Hertz, and/or the termination of such employment relationship, and/or with respect to any other claim, matter, or event arising at any time prior to the execution of this Agreement. Executive covenants and agrees not to at any time file a suit or claim of any kind against any of the Released Parties concerning any of the claims released herein. Executive acknowledges that this release of claims extends to all claims of every nature and kind that may be lawfully released, whether known or unknown, suspected, or unsuspected, presently existing or resulting from or attributable to any act or omission of a Released Party occurring before Executive signed this Agreement. Likewise, and in consideration of Executive’s execution of this Agreement, which Hertz acknowledges is adequate consideration, Hertz hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases, and forever discharges and covenants not to sue Executive, from any and all claims, liabilities and causes of action of any kind which Hertz ever had, now has or hereafter may have against Executive by reason
PAGE 5


of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever occurring on or at any time prior to the date hereof of which Hertz had knowledge as of the date hereof, including, but not limited to, all claims arising out of or from or regarding or pertaining to any transaction, dealing, conduct, act or omission, or any other matters or things relating to the employment relationship and/or the termination of the employment relationship.
8.    Rights/Claims Not Released and Additional Employee Protections: Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement does not effect a release of, or preclude the assertion of (a) rights or claims that arise after Executive signs this Agreement, including the right to enforce this Agreement; (b) rights or claims that cannot be released as a matter of law, including claims for benefits under workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation laws (the application for which shall not be contested by Hertz); (c) rights or claims under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) and/or the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act; (d) claims for breach of this Agreement; (e) any rights or claims under the U.K. Settlement Agreement; (f) any rights or claims for accrued, vested benefits under any employee benefit, stock, savings, insurance, or pension plan of Hertz; or (g) any rights or claims to indemnification, contribution, advancement or defense as provided by, and in accordance with the terms of the Company by-laws, articles of incorporation, liability insurance coverage, indemnification agreement, or applicable law.
For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing exclusions from the release provisions of this Agreement do not constitute an admission with respect to any claims, including with respect to the validity or enforceability thereof, and shall not affect any objections or defenses Hertz may assert with respect to any claims, or to the payment of any claims. This Agreement is also not a settlement of any workplace injury claim that Executive may have under workers’ compensation laws.
Nothing in any part of this Agreement limits Executive’s right to file a charge with a governmental agency, provide testimony or other information to an agency, or take part in
PAGE 6


any agency investigation. Nor does any part of this Agreement limit Executive’s right to testify regarding sexual harassment or criminal conduct, whether in court pursuant to subpoena or a court order or before a state legislature at the legislature’s written request. However, Executive is waiving all rights to recover money or other relief for claims released herein in connection with such an investigation or charge filed by Executive or any other individual, or by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other federal, state, or local agency. Despite the above, this Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive money properly awarded by the U.S. Securities &Exchange Commission as a reward for providing information to that agency.
9. Time to Consult Counsel, Consider and Revoke Release: Executive acknowledges and agrees that Hertz has advised Executive (i) that this Agreement may not be signed or otherwise accepted by her prior to May 1, 2022 and that if she signs or purports to accept before that date, this Agreement will be null and void and have no force or effect; (ii) to read this Agreement and carefully consider all of its terms before signing it; (iii) to consult with an attorney of Executive’s choice before signing it; (iv) that Executive has twenty-one (21) calendar days in which to consider this Agreement before signing, although Executive may accept and sign at any time within those twenty-one (21) days, provided she does so on or after May 1, 2022; and (v) that Executive has the un-waivable right to revoke this Agreement within seven (7) calendar days after signing (the “Revocation Period”), by emailing a written revocation to Eric Leef at [*] before the expiration of the Revocation Period; and (v) that this Agreement will become effective on the day following the expiration of the Revocation Period, and only if Executive has not timely revoked it.
10.    Warranties and Representations: Executive warrants and represents as follows:


(a)    Executive has not filed or otherwise pursued any charges, complaints, lawsuits, or claims of any nature against any of the Released Parties arising out of or relating to events occurring prior to and through the date of this Agreement with respect to any

Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Hertz is entering into this Agreement in reliance on the representations contained in this Section of this Agreement which representations constitute terms of this Agreement.
(c)    That Executive has carefully read this Agreement and that Executive fully understands its terms and is entering into this Agreement voluntarily. Executive also warrants and represents that Executive has received valuable consideration in exchange for signing this Agreement that Executive would not otherwise be entitled to receive.

pay day before signing this Agreement. Executive warrants and represents that Executive has no work-related injury or illness at the time of signing this Agreement for which Executive has not already filed a claim.
11. Confidential Information:    For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean any trade secret or other non-public information concerning the financial data, strategic business plans, product development (or other proprietary product data), customer lists, marketing plans and other non-public, proprietary and confidential information of Hertz or its affiliates, that, in any case, is not otherwise available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof) or known to persons in the industry generally, was not in Executive’s possession or known to Executive prior to Executive’s employment with Hertz, and is not among Executive’s contacts, whether in paper or electronic form (e.g., rolodex, Outlook contacts, etc.). Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive shall not at any time, without the prior written consent of Hertz, use, divulge, disclose, or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation, or other entity any Confidential Information pertaining to the business of Hertz or any of its affiliates, except when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of Hertz, or by any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose, or make accessible such information, or save as permitted by the UK Settlement Agreement. If a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction finds that Executive has materially breached this Section of this Agreement, Executive will repay the severance benefits to Hertz in full and will be subject to such other monetary damages as Hertz may be able to prove at trial.
12.    Non-Disparagement: Executive agrees not to do, say, or publish anything, directly or

indirectly, whether verbal or in writing, that disparages Hertz or any officer, director, employee or greater than ten percent (10%) shareholder (or beneficial owner) of Hertz, or
PAGE 9


otherwise reflects negatively on Hertz’s reputation or that of any other Released Party, or to assist, encourage, discuss, cooperate, incite, or otherwise confer with or aid any others in doing so, except as required by law or save as permitted by the UK Settlement Agreement. Likewise, Hertz, through its senior management, shall not do, say or publish anything, directly or indirectly, that disparages Executive, Executive’s goodwill or otherwise reflects negatively on Executive’s reputation. The parties specifically agree not to post or communicate anything over the internet or on any social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) that would violate this Section of this Agreement. Any inquiries by third parties for employment references or otherwise concerning Executive’s employment with Hertz must be directed to Eric Leef, Chief Human Resources Officer, or his actual or functionally equivalent successor. If Mr. Leef is contacted by third parties concerning Executive’s employment, he shall provide a response that is limited to the sum and substance of the information contained in Exhibit A attached to this Agreement. If asked by any third parties about Executive’s departure from Hertz, Executive may respond that Executive resigned from employment with Hertz. If specifically asked whether Executive resigned from employment with Hertz, Hertz and Mr. Leef shall confirm that Executive resigned. Nothing in this Section of this Agreement shall prevent the lawful filing or prosecution of any claim against Hertz in any judicial, arbitration, governmental, or other appropriate forum for adjudication of disputes, any response or disclosure by Executive compelled by legal process or required by applicable law or any bona-fide exercise by Executive of any shareholder rights Executive may otherwise have.
13.    Non-Compete:Executive expressly agrees that for eighteen (18) months following

Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall not directly or indirectly become associated, as an owner, partner, shareholder (other than as a holder of not in excess of five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting shares of any publicly traded company), director, officer, manager, employee, agent, consultant, or otherwise, with any car, van, or truck rental
PAGE 10


company, or comparable company, including but not limited to Avis Budget Group, Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Sixt rent a car, Advantage Rent a Car, Edge Auto Rental, Courier Car Rental, and any of their respective affiliates; with a Transportation Network Company, including but not limited to Uber Technologies, Inc. and Lyft, Inc.; or with any other company that competes with the business, or for the customer base, of Hertz; each of which is defined herein to be a “Competitive Business.” This Section of this Agreement shall not be deemed to restrict association with any enterprise that conducts unrelated business or that has material operations outside of the geographic area that encompasses Hertz’s customer base (or where Hertz had plans at the Separation Date to enter) for so long as Executive’s role, whether direct or indirect (e.g., supervisory), is solely with respect to such unrelated business or other geographic area (as the case may be).
14.    Non-Solicitation: Executive will not for eighteen (18) months after the Separation Date

directly or indirectly, alone or in aid of or through others, employ or seek to employ, or solicit, divert, or otherwise induce, or attempt to do so, or cause others to do so with a view to engage or employ, any person who is or was a managerial-level employee of a Released Party as of the Separation Date, or at any time during the 12-month period preceding the Separation Date, to terminate or modify their employment relationship with Hertz or to have such individual(s) perform any services for or on behalf of any other company, individual, or other entity.
15.    Reasonableness and Modification: Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Released Parties, and that any violation of any such restriction will result in irreparable injury to the applicable Released Party. Executive represents and agrees that Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this
PAGE 11


Agreement will not prevent Executive from obtaining employment or otherwise earning a living at the same general level of economic benefit as is currently the case.
The parties agree that if any portion of the provision of the “Non-Compete” and “Non- Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, including but not limited to the duration of such provision, the territory being covered thereby, or the type of conduct restricted therein, a Court is authorized and directed to modify the duration, geographic area, and/or other terms of such provision to the maximum benefit of Hertz as permitted by law, and, as so modified, said provision shall then be enforceable. The period of time during which the “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement shall apply shall be extended by the length of time during which Executive is deemed to be in breach of any such term.
16.    Equitable Relief: Executive further agrees that in the event Executive breaches the “Non- Compete” or “Non-Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement, Hertz shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond, and that a Court or Arbitrator may also order an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits, and other benefits arising from any violation of the “Non-Compete” or “Non- Solicitation” provisions of this Agreement, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Hertz may be entitled.
17.    Fiduciary Duties: Executive will retain fiduciary responsibilities to Hertz to the extent

provided by law. In addition, Executive agrees to continue to abide by applicable provisions of the principles and guidelines set forth in the Hertz Standards of Business Conduct, the terms of which are incorporated herein, including but not limited to the restrictions on insider trading and use of Company assets and information contained therein.
18.    Return of Company Property: All notes, reports, sketches, plans, books, keys, computers, hard copy or computer files, computer diskettes, flash drives, or other electronic storage devices, unpublished memoranda or other documents or property, including any
PAGE 12


company vehicles, which were created, developed, generated, or held or controlled by Executive during Executive’s employment and which concern or are related to Hertz’s business, whether or not containing or relating to confidential information, are the property of Hertz and will be returned to Hertz within thirty (30) calendar days of the Separation Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Executive may retain Executive’s contact lists, whether in electronic or paper form (e.g. rolodex, Outlook contacts and calendar, etc.) and copies of documents related to Executive’s compensation and benefits
19.    Cooperation: Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with Hertz in the defense or

prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of Hertz which relate to events or occurrences that occurred while Executive was employed by Hertz and about which Executive has knowledge as a result of Executive’s employment with Hertz, including, but not limited to, any litigation and/or claims that were filed and/or asserted while Executive was employed by Hertz. Executive’s reasonable cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available for telephone conferences with outside counsel and/or Hertz personnel, being available for interviews, depositions, and/or to act as a witness on behalf of Hertz, if requested, and at the request of Hertz responding to any inquiries about the particular matter. Executive will also reasonably cooperate with Hertz in connection with any investigation or review by any federal, state, or local regulatory authority relating to events or occurrences that transpired while Executive was employed by Hertz. Hertz’s requests pursuant to this Section shall take into consideration Executive’s personal and business commitments and the amount of notice provided to Executive. Hertz shall promptly reimburse Executive for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Executive may incur in connection with such cooperation (including reasonable attorneys’ fees if a conflict arises between Executive and Hertz).
PAGE 13


Nothing in this Section of this Agreement shall prevent any communications by Executive with any governmental agencies without notice to Hertz, as contemplated by the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Rights/Claims Not Released and Additional Employee Protections,” above.
20.    Tax Matters; Internal Revenue Code Section 409A:

All payments and benefits provided under or referenced in the terms of this Agreement shall be subject to tax withholdings required by applicable law and other standard payroll deductions.
The payments made pursuant to this Agreement are intended to be exempt from or are in compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and its accompanying regulations (“Section 409A”). This Agreement shall be implemented and construed in a manner to give effect to the foregoing. If any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation due to Executive under this Agreement) would cause Executive to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, Hertz shall modify this Agreement to make it compliant with Section 409A and maintain the value of the payments and benefits under this Agreement, provided that in no event shall Hertz or any of its affiliates or any other Released Party (i) be liable for or have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Executive harmless from any taxes, interest, or penalties, or liability for any damages related to Section 409A or (ii) be required to increase the amount of any payment made pursuant to this Agreement.
It is the parties’ understanding and intent that the payments made pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to taxation under UK law. In the event they are deemed by HMRC to be taxable, they shall be subject to tax equalization to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as employment-related income earned by Executive during her employment. Executive shall be entitled to use the services of BDO to assist in the filing
PAGE 14


of her US and UK tax returns for so long as Executive’s US or UK taxes continue to be impacted as a result of her prior employment with Hertz, including by payments made pursuant to this Agreement.
21. Confidential Agreement: Where it is not contrary to state and local law, the existence of this Agreement, its terms, and any severance amount paid under it, including the timing of any such payment, are confidential and may not be disclosed by Executive, except that Executive may disclose such information to members of Executive’s immediate family, tax advisors, and attorneys, as permitted by the UK Settlement Agreement and as required by applicable law. Executive will take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that confidentiality is maintained by any of the individuals or entities referenced above. Executive will give written notice to Hertz if Executive is requested or required pursuant to court order, judicial process, or by any regulatory authority, to reveal any information relating to the terms and conditions of this Agreement prior to providing the information.
22.    Severability: The various provisions of this Agreement and parts thereof are severable.

Executive specifically agree that if any single clause or clauses or portion thereof, other than those set forth in the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Claims Released,” shall be found invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, only that part will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to Executive or Hertz.
23.    Entire Agreement: Executive acknowledges and agrees that no promise, inducement, or
agreement has been made to or with Executive except as set forth herein. This Agreement and the U.K. Settlement Agreement contain the entire agreement between the parties, and Executive understands that the terms of this Agreement and the U.K. Settlement Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the benefits provided to Executive under this Agreement and the U.K. Settlement Agreement are
PAGE 15


the entire severance benefit to which Executive is entitled, and that this Agreement and the U.K. Settlement Agreement supersede any and all prior agreements between the parties concerning Executive’s severance eligibility, be they oral or in writing, including, but not limited to, the Severance Plans, and may not be changed, modified, or rescinded except in writing, signed by both parties, and any attempt at oral modification of them Agreement shall be void and of no force or effect.
24.    Savings Clause: Executive understands and agrees that should any provision of

this Agreement be declared or be determined by any court to be illegal or invalid, the validity of the remaining parts, terms, or provisions shall not be affected thereby, and said invalid part, term, or provision shall be deemed not a part of this Agreement, except as provided for otherwise in the Section of this Agreement with the heading “Reasonableness and Modification.”
25.    Waiver of Jury Trial: EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each such party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each such party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) each such party has been induced to enter into this agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Agreement.
PAGE 16


26.    Applicable Law: This Agreement is subject to and shall be construed in accordance with Florida law without regard to any conflict of law principles. Executive and Hertz irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any suit, action, or other legal proceeding arising out of this Agreement, including without limitation any action commenced by Hertz for preliminary and permanent injunctive relief or other equitable relief, shall be brought in the United States District Court whose jurisdiction includes Lee County, Florida, or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Florida, (ii) consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) waive any objection which Executive may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

Exhibit A

Response of Eric Leef or actual or functionally equivalent successor to external inquiries regarding Executive’s employment with Hertz


Sum and Substance of Message

AB’s career with Hertz began in November 2019 and ended in April 2022.

Throughout her tenure, AB served as President-Hertz International.

In her role, AB successfully led the Company’s substantial international network of approximately 6,000 corporate and franchise rental locations, both on-airport and off-airport locations, in 110 countries and regions.

The COVID-19 pandemic began just weeks after AB joined Hertz, and she led Hertz International with a remote team through the severe business challenges the pandemic presented.

Hertz’s US and Canadian businesses entered bankruptcy under Chapter 11 in May 2020.

AB led a successful financial and business restructuring effort for Hertz International that brought about significant cost savings in 2020, and her contributions led Hertz International to avoid bankruptcy.

In 2021, the last full year of AB’s tenure, Hertz International’s total revenues increased by $113M.

(C)    The Executive and the Employer have entered into this Agreement to record and implement the terms on which they have agreed to settle any claims which the Executive has or may have in connection with her employment or its termination, against the Employer or any Affiliated Company or their officers or employees whether or not those claims are, or could be, in the contemplation of the parties at the time of signing this Agreement, and including, in particular, the contractual and statutory claims referenced in this Agreement save for those claims excluded by clause 8.2 below.
(D)    The Employer is entering this Agreement for itself and as agent for itself, its Affiliated Companies and its and their relevant officers and employees (former and present) and is duly authorised to do so.
IT IS AGREED as follows:

2    Termination of employment

2.1    Subject to the following provisions of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment with the Employer terminated on the Termination Date by way of mutual agreement.
3    Severance Payment and Benefits

3.1    The Employer will, without admission of liability and in full and final settlement of any claims or rights of action pursuant to clause 8.1 (save for those claims excluded by clause 8.2 below) , pay to the Executive:
3.1.1    a total payment of £30,000, (“Severance Payment”) subject to clauses 3.1.2 and 3.1.2 which is inclusive of:
a.    the remainder of the Executive's statutory notice period (the "PILON"), and;

3.2.3    Permit the Executive to retain the Employer’s iPhone (the “Device”) currently in her possession, subject to that Device first being wiped of any confidential information and any software licensed to the Company or an Affiliated Company.

No warranty is given by the Employer as to the condition of the Device;

PAGE 4


the Employers’ provider subject to these being agreed in advance with the Employer.

3.5    The Employer may deduct from the sums referred to in clause 3 any monies owed by the Executive to the Employer or any Affiliated Company. The Employer confirms that it is not aware of any sums that the Employee owes to the Employer or any Affiliated Company.
3.6    Compliance by the Executive with her material obligations and undertakings and the giving of truthful warranties under this Agreement shall each be a condition precedent to any payment or benefit as set out or referred to in this Agreement.
4    Provision of Car

The Employer confirms safe receipt of the car used by the Executive during her employment.
5    Directorships

5.1    The Executive will resign from the board of Hertz Europe Limited in the form set out in SCHEDULE 3.
5.2    The Employer confirms that the Executive continues to have the benefit of Directors’ and Officers’ Liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in relation to the Employer and any Affiliated Company, to the same extent that it is maintained for other former directors and officers and that the D&O Insurance was in place while
she was a director or officer. The Employer shall continue to maintain such D&O Insurance and, to the extent contemplated and permissible under the Bylaws of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., will indemnify the Executive against any liabilities as a Director or Officer.
5.3    The Employer confirms that in addition to the D&O Insurance, the Executive will continue to have the benefit of insurance which the Employer already has in place, if any, (“Other Insurance”) for its former directors and officers, and that the Executive will
PAGE 5


be treated in the same way as any other former director or officer of the Employer or any Affiliated Company.
5.4    The Employer confirms that where payment by insurers under the D&O Insurance and Other Insurance (together, “the Insurance”) is insufficient to meet payment of a loss (in whole or in part) in respect of claim under the Insurance it will indemnify the Executive to the same extent and the same conditions as it would for any other former director or officer of the Employer or any Affiliated Company to the extent contemplated and permissible under the Bylaws of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.
5.5    The Employer confirms that it is unaware of any circumstances or any claims notified under the Insurances relating to any of the Executive’s directorships/offices or positions in the Employer or any Affiliated Company.
6    Executive’s Warranties and Employer’s Warranties

As a strict condition of receiving the sums under this Agreement, the Executive warrants and represents as follows, as at the date of this Agreement, and acknowledges that the Employer enters into this Agreement in reliance on these warranties:
6.1    The Executive has not retained and will not retain any copies (whether paper copies or copies stored on software storage media) of the documentation and information referred to at clauses 7.1 and 7.2 below, save for documentation and correspondence relating to her share options and employment terms;
6.2    The Executive has not done or failed to do anything amounting to a repudiatory breach of the express or implied terms of the Executive’s employment with the Employer, including without limitation (i) knowingly violated the Hertz Standards of Business Conduct or any similar policy, (ii) facilitated or engaged in, or had knowledge of, any financial or accounting improprieties; (iii) knowingly made any incorrect or false statements in any of her certifications relating to the Employer’s or any Affiliated Company’s filings required under applicable securities laws or management representation letters and the Executive has no knowledge of any incorrect or false statements in respect of the same (in the case of (ii) or (iii) excluding any information provided by a third party auditor in a report to both the Executive and a Board of Directors of the Company or any Affiliated Company), which if the matter had come to the Employer’s attention before the Termination Date would have entitled the Employer to terminate the Executive’s employment summarily or if it had been done or omitted after the date of the Agreement would have constituted a breach of any of its terms;
6.3    There are no matters of which the Executive is aware relating to any act or omission by the Executive or by any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Employer or
PAGE 6


any Affiliated Company which if disclosed to the Employer would or might affect the Employer’s decision to enter into this Agreement or which has not been disclosed to the Employer;
6.4    The Executive has not issued proceedings before the employment tribunals, High Court or County Court or any other judicial body in any jurisdiction in respect of any claim in connection with the Executive’s employment or its termination and the Executive undertakes that, save where clause 8.2 applies, neither the Executive nor anyone acting on the Executive’s behalf will present such an application, or claim and that the Executive will not enforce any declaration or award in respect of such application or claim, whether under sections 188 to 192 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 or otherwise; and
6.5    Having received the independent advice referred to in clause 10, as far as she and the Independent Advisor are aware the only claims or particular complaints which the Executive may have against the Employer or any of its Affiliated Companies, whether statutory or otherwise, are those referred to in clause 8.1 and SCHEDULE 1.
6.6    The Employer and all Affiliated Companies warrant that they have not and will not disclose the facts or contents of this Settlement Agreement and the facts and circumstances leading up to it, to any third party except to professional advisers HMRC or as required by law.
7    Executive’s Undertakings
