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.
Hertz operates its vehicle rental business globally primarily through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from company-operated 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.
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, 2023 of Hertz Global and Hertz. Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes and, 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.
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, 2022 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the "2022 Form 10-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 7, 2023.
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.

In March 2023, the Company sold and leased back its Los Angeles, California airport location in its Americas RAC segment. The transaction qualified for sale-leaseback accounting. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $133 million based on the difference in the sale amount of $143 million less $9 million net book value of assets sold and $1 million in selling costs, which is included in (gain) on sale of non-vehicle capital assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings will revert to £135 million.
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).
The following facilities were available to the Company as of June 30, 2023 and are presented net of any outstanding letters of credit:

As of June 30, 2023, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $1.0 billion comprised primarily of $245 million issued under the term loan "C" facility (the "Term C Loan") and $755 million issued under the First Lien RCF. As of June 30, 2023, no capacity remains to issue letters of credit under the Term C Loan. Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to provide credit enhancement for the Company's asset-backed securitization facilities and to support the Company's insurance programs, as well as to support the Company's vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds. As of June 30, 2023, none of the issued letters of credit were drawn.
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.

Note 7—Income Tax (Provision) Benefit
Hertz Global
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Hertz Global recorded a tax provision of $19 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 12%. 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%.
The change in tax in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 2022 is driven by lower pre-tax income and benefits from electric vehicle credits, offset by the non-deductibility of the change in the fair value of warrants.
For the first half of 2023, Hertz Global recorded a tax benefit of $115 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of (52%). For the first half of 2022, Hertz Global recorded a tax provision of $309 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 18%.
The change in tax in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 is driven by lower pre-tax income, recognition of uncertain tax benefits related to our tax restructuring of European operations and benefits from electric vehicle credits, offset by the non-deductibility of the change in the fair value of warrants.
As previously disclosed, Hertz Global filed a request for a pre-filing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in December 2021 to determine whether the loss related to our tax restructuring of European operations qualified as an ordinary loss. On February 9, 2023, Hertz Global and the IRS agreed to the character and amount of

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") of 2022 was enacted into law. It includes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on corporate stock buybacks, both of which are effective after December 31, 2022. Hertz Global does not currently anticipate a material impact to its results of operations, cash flows or financial position related to these provisions. The IRA also included income tax incentives associated with electric vehicles placed in service after December 31, 2022. An estimate of these credits has been included in the tax calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Hertz
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Hertz recorded a tax provision of $18 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 7%. 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%.

Hertz Global funded the share repurchases with available cash and dividend distributions from Hertz.
Any repurchases will be made at the discretion of Hertz Global's management through a variety of methods, such as open-market transactions (including pre-set trading plans pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases, and other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The share repurchase authorization has no initial time limit, does not obligate Hertz Global to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and can be discontinued at any time. There can be no assurance as to the timing or number of shares of any repurchases.
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. 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 Association ("ISDA") master derivative agreements, the non-defaulting party generally has the right, but not the obligation, to set-off any early termination amounts under any such agreements against any other amounts owed with regard to any other agreements between the parties to each such agreement.
None of the Company's financial instruments have been designated as hedging instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company classifies cash flows from the financial instruments according to the classification of the cash flows of the economic hedged item(s).
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.

(1) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, all gains (losses) on foreign currency forward contracts were recorded in other (income) expense, net.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company sold certain of its interest rate caps resulting in a net gain of $10 million based on the recognition of a $98 million realized gain on the unwind, of which $88 million was previously unrealized.
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.
Fair Value Disclosures
The fair value of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates the carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents primarily consist of investments in money market funds and bank money market and interest-bearing accounts. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets (i.e., Level 1 inputs).
Public Warrants
Hertz Global's Public Warrants are classified as liabilities and recorded at fair value in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. See Note 8, "Public Warrants, Equity and Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share – Hertz Global," for additional information. The Company calculates the fair value based on the end-of-day quoted market price, a Level 1 input of the fair value hierarchy. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the fair value adjustment was a loss of $100 million and $218 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the fair value adjustments were gains of $461 million and $511 million, respectively. These amounts are recorded in change in fair value of Public Warrants in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for Hertz Global for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company's financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are disclosed in Note 10, "Financial Instruments." The Company's financial instruments are classified as Level 2 assets and liabilities and are priced using quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

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, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company's liability recorded for self-insured liabilities was $451 million and $472 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 state 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, 2023 or the period after June 30, 2023, 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 “Unsecured 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. 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 approximately $272 million or, in the alternative, are entitled to payment of post-petition interest at a contractual rate that they assert totals approximately $125 million. The Complaint also asserts the right to pre-judgment interest from July 1, 2021, to the date of any judgment. 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. On November 9, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court ruled that the make-whole premium is the same as unmatured interest and is disallowed under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, granting summary judgment in the Defendants’ favor. The Bankruptcy Court certified the matter directly to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (the “Third Circuit”) and, on January 25, 2023, the Third Circuit accepted Wells Fargo’s appeal. Oral argument is scheduled for October 25, 2023. The Defendants intend to continue to vigorously defend against these claims. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome or timing of this litigation.
Claims Related to Alleged False Arrests - A group of claims involving allegations that the police detained or arrested individuals in error after the Company reported rental cars as stolen were previously advanced against the Company. These claims first arose from actions allegedly taken by the Company prior to its emergence from bankruptcy reorganization; some claims allege post-emergence behavior by the Company. These claims have been the subject of press coverage and the Company has received government inquiries on the matter. The Company has policies to help ensure the proper treatment of its customers and to seek to protect itself against the theft of its

services or assets, and has taken significant steps to modernize and update those policies. In December 2022, the Company entered into settlement agreements with 364 claimants in full and final resolutions of their claims for an aggregated amount of approximately $168 million (the "Settlement"), all of which amount was paid by the Company during December 2022. The Settlement resolved nearly all of the false arrest-related claims being advanced in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Adv. Pro. No. 20-11247 (MFW) and state court in Delaware (captioned Flannery, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., C.A. No. N22C-07-100 and Okoasia, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., C.A. No. N22C-09-531). Also as a result of the Settlements, state court matters pending in Pennsylvania, captioned Lovelace, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., Case No. 220801729, and in Florida, captioned Lizasoain, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., Case No. 2022-015316-CA-1, were dismissed with prejudice. In the small number of claims remaining, the Company continues to vigorously defend itself and believes that the ultimate resolution of such remaining claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Relatedly, 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, Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al. v. ACE American Insurance Co., et al., C.A. No. N22C-05-130 MMJ (CCLD). On June 30, 2023, Hertz entered into a confidential settlement with ACE American Insurance Company. The case is ongoing against the remaining insurers.
Share Repurchase Program Litigation - On May 11, 2023, Angelo Cascia, a purported stockholder of Hertz Global, filed a putative class and derivative lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against certain current and former directors of Hertz Global, Knighthead Capital Management, LLC, Certares Opportunities LLC, and CK Amarillo LP. The claims in the complaint relate to the Company’s share repurchase programs approved in November 2021 and June 2022. Among other allegations, the plaintiff claims Board members breached their fiduciary duties in approving these share repurchase programs, and that Knighthead, Certares, and CK Amarillo were unjustly enriched because they gained a majority stake in Hertz Global as a result of share repurchases. Defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint was filed on July 24, 2023.
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 alleged breach of contract and sought 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 complaints also sought 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. In October 2019, the Company entered into a confidential settlement agreement with Elyse Douglas, and, on April 14, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court approved a Settlement Agreement between the Company and Scott Sider, closing the Florida action. Additionally, on December 29, 2021, the Company entered into a confidential settlement agreement with Jeff Zimmerman, leaving Mark Frissora as the sole remaining defendant in the New Jersey action. Competing dispositive motions were fully briefed as of October 26, 2022 and on June 26, 2023, the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey issued an opinion granting Frissora's motion for summary judgment, and dismissing Hertz's

complaint. Hertz is considering its next steps in relation to this matter. 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 relevant 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 car 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—Segment Information
The Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources based upon the financial information for the Company’s reportable segments. The Company has identified two reportable segments, which are consistent with its 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 (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, in locations other than the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.
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. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A presented in our 2022 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, 2023 (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 – important key metric to management and investors as it is the measurement of the proportion of our vehicles that are being used to generate revenues relative to rentable fleet capacity. Higher Vehicle Utilization means more vehicles are being utilized to generate revenues.
•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.

THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
•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.
•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"). Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on our retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels.
•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.
OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
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 selling 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.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Also included are ancillary revenues associated with retail vehicle sales and certain royalty fees from our franchisees (such fees are approximately 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 business 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 we generate our revenues. To accommodate increased demand, we increase our available fleet and staff. As demand declines, fleet and staff are decreased accordingly. We maintain a flexible workforce, with a significant number of part-time and seasonal workers to help manage demand needs. 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. 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 of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, in locations other than the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.
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, 2023 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2022
Total revenues increased $94 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to increased travel demand. Total revenues increased $52 million and $42 million in our International RAC and Americas RAC segments, respectively, due primarily to higher volume.
DOE increased $148 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to increases of $137 million and $14 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. DOE in our Americas RAC segment increased due primarily to increased fleet-related costs driven by higher damage costs and increased volume. DOE in our International RAC segment increased due primarily to higher volume driven by increased travel demand.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net increased $223 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 of which $211 million is attributed to our Americas RAC segment due primarily to lower per unit gains recognized on vehicle dispositions. Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for our International RAC segment increased $12 million due primarily to higher vehicle acquisition costs and fleet levels, partially offset by a higher volume of vehicle dispositions.
SG&A increased $28 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to increased IT costs, advertising spend and personnel costs in our Americas RAC segment, partially offset by lower personnel costs in our corporate operations resulting primarily from decreased non-cash stock-based compensation costs.
Vehicle interest expense, net increased $87 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to higher debt levels and higher average interest rates. primarily in our Americas RAC segment, resulting from the

issuance of the HVF III Series 2023 Notes in the first quarter of 2023 and higher benchmark rates on the HVF III 2021-A Notes.
Non-vehicle interest expense, net increased $15 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to higher benchmark rates, partially offset by interest income due to higher market rates.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a tax provision of $18 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 7%. 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%. The change in tax in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 2022 is driven primarily by lower pre-tax income and benefits from electric vehicle credits.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Total revenues increased $329 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to an increase of $213 million and $116 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. Revenues for our Americas RAC segment increased due primarily to higher volume. Total revenues in our International RAC segment increased due primarily to higher volume and pricing, offset by an unfavorable $18 million fx impact.
DOE increased $316 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to an increase of $273 million and $46 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. The increase in Americas RAC DOE was due primarily to increased fleet-related costs driven by higher damage costs and increased volume. DOE for International RAC increased due to higher volume driven by increased travel demand and an unfavorable $11 million fx impact.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net increased $663 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 primarily driven by our Americas RAC segment. The increase of $653 million in our Americas RAC segment was due primarily to lower per unit gains recognized on vehicle dispositions, higher fleet levels and lower volume of vehicle dispositions in 2023 , partially offset by longer vehicle holding periods resulting in lower depreciation rates.
SG&A increased $14 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to increased personnel and IT costs and advertising spend in our Americas RAC segment, partially offset by lower personnel costs in our corporate operations resulting primarily to decreased non-cash stock-based compensation costs.
Vehicle interest expense, net increased $193 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to the realization of $88 million of previously unrealized gains resulting from the unwind of certain interest rate caps in the first quarter of 2023, higher debt levels and higher average interest rates, primarily in our Americas RAC segment, resulting from the issuance of the HVF III Series 2023 Notes in the first quarter of 2023 and higher benchmark rates on the HVF III 2021-A Notes. This was partially offset by a $98 million realized gain on the unwind of certain interest rate caps in the first quarter of 2023.
Non-vehicle interest expense, net increased $27 million in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 due primarily to higher benchmark rates, partially offset by interest income due to higher market rates.
In the first half of 2023, we recognized a gain of $162 million on the sale of certain non-vehicle capital assets in our Americas RAC segment, as disclosed in Note 3, "Divestitures," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
For the first half of 2023, we recorded a tax benefit of $116 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of (26%). For the first half of 2022, we recorded a tax provision of $308 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 26%. The change in tax in the first half of 2023 compared to 2022 is driven by lower pre-tax income, recognition of uncertain tax benefits related to our tax restructuring of European operations and benefits from electric vehicle credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our U.S. and international operations are funded by cash provided by operating activities and by extensive financing arrangements maintained by us in the U.S. and internationally.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of June 30, 2023, we had $681 million of cash and cash equivalents and $484 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2023, $267 million of cash and cash equivalents and $62 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, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Hertz had cash and cash equivalents of $681 million and $943 million, respectively, and restricted cash and cash equivalents of $484 million and $475 million, respectively. The following table summarizes the net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents for the periods shown:

Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents | $ | (253) | | | $ | (1,087) | | | $ | 834 | |
During the first half of 2023, cash flows from operating activities decreased $273 million period over period due primarily to a $309 million change in working capital accounts, partially offset by a $36 million change in net income, as adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items. Cash flows from working capital accounts decreased due primarily to higher value added tax receivables in 2023 associated with fleet acquisitions and a decrease in accrued liabilities due in part to bankruptcy claims in 2022 and incentive payments in 2023.
Our primary investing activities relate to the acquisition and disposal of revenue earning vehicles. During the first half of 2023, there was a $474 million increase in the cash used in investing activities period over period due primarily to an $575 million increase in revenue earning vehicle expenditures, net primarily resulting from increased vehicle acquisition costs in our International RAC segment and lower per unit gains recognized on vehicle dispositions in the 2023 period in our Americas RAC segment, partially offset by $168 million of net proceeds received in 2023 from the sale of certain non-vehicle capital assets as disclosed in Note 3, "Divestitures," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Net financing cash inflows were $2.4 billion in the first half of 2023 compared to $859 million in the 2022 period. The $1.5 billion increase in cash inflows is due in part to a $1.4 billion reduction in dividends paid to Hertz Holdings in 2023 primarily used for share repurchases and a $501 million increase in net proceeds from non-vehicle debt

resulting primarily from a draw on the First Lien RCF in the second quarter of 2023, partially offset by a decrease of $406 million in net proceeds from vehicle debt resulting from less issuances in 2023 versus 2022.

HVF III U.S. ABS Program
The following HVF III Series 2023 Fixed Rate Rental Car Asset Backed Notes were issued in March 2023:
•HVF III Series 2023-1 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million. At the time of issuance, Hertz, an affiliate of HVF III, purchased the Class D Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million, and accordingly, the related principal amount is eliminated in consolidation.

There is subordination within each of the preceding series based on class. Proceeds from the issuance of the HVF III Series 2023-1 Notes and HVF III Series 2023-2 Notes were used to repay amounts outstanding on the Series 2021-A Notes and for the purchase or refinancing of electric vehicles.
The HVF III Series 2021-A Notes were amended in June 2023 to increase the maximum principal amount that may be outstanding from $3.9 billion to $4.1 billion. Additionally, the maturity dates of the Series 2021-A Class A Notes and Class B Notes were extended to June 2025 and August 2025, respectively.

Hertz Canadian Securitization
The Hertz Canadian Securitization was amended in June 2023 to provide for aggregate maximum borrowings of CAD$475 million and extended the maturity date to June 2025. Additionally, the Hertz Canadian Securitization was amended to provide for aggregate maximum borrowings of CAD$575 million for a seasonal commitment period through November 2023. Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings will revert to CAD$475 million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
The Australian Securitization was amended in June 2023 to provide for aggregate maximum borrowings of AUD$340 million and the maturity date extended to June 2025.

The U.K. Financing Facility was amended in June 2023 to provide for aggregate maximum borrowings of £135 million and the maturity date extended to November 2024. Additionally, the U.K. Financing Facility was amended to provide for aggregate maximum borrowings of £155 million for a seasonal commitment period through October 2023. Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings will revert to £135 million.
Substantially all of our 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 and asset-backed securities programs. None of the value of such assets (including the assets owned by Hertz Vehicle Financing III LLC and various international subsidiaries that facilitate our international securitizations) will be available to satisfy the claims of unsecured creditors unless the secured creditors are paid in full.
Refer to Note 5, "Debt," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for information on our outstanding debt obligations and our borrowing capacity and availability under our revolving credit facilities as of June 30, 2023. Cash paid for interest on vehicle debt during the first half of 2023 and 2022 was $207 million and $92 million, respectively. The $115 million increase in cash paid for vehicle debt interest is due primarily to higher debt levels and higher interest rates. Cash paid for interest on non-vehicle debt during the first half of 2023 and 2022 was $117 million and $74 million, respectively. The $43 million increase in cash paid for non-vehicle debt interest is due primarily to higher benchmark rates, partially offset by interest income due to higher market rates.
Our available corporate liquidity, which excludes unused commitments under our vehicle debt, was as follows:

Letters of Credit
As of June 30, 2023, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $1.0 billion comprised primarily of $245 million issued under the Term C Loan and $755 million issued under the First Lien RCF. As of June 30, 2023, no capacity remains to issue letters of credit under the Term C Loan. Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to provide credit enhancement for our asset-backed securitization facilities and to support our insurance programs, as well as to support our vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds. As of June 30, 2023, none of the issued letters of credit were drawn.
Covenants
The First Lien Credit Agreement requires us 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. As of June 30, 2023, we were 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 interests 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

Revenue earning vehicle expenditures increased approximately $454 million, or 7%, in the first half of 2023 compared to the 2022 period, primarily in our International RAC segment, resulting from increased vehicle acquisition costs. Revenue earning vehicle disposal proceeds decreased $121 million for the first half of 2023 compared to the 2022 period resulting primarily from lower per unit gains recognized on vehicle dispositions in our Americas RAC segment.

In the first half of 2023, proceeds for non-vehicle capital assets increased by $170 million compared to 2022, primarily in our Americas RAC segment, resulting primarily from the sale of certain non-vehicle capital assets as disclosed in Note 3, "Divestitures," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. In the first half of 2023, expenditures for non-vehicle capital assets increased by $64 million compared to the 2022 period, primarily in our corporate operations, driven in part by increased IT-related and electric vehicle charging infrastructure spend.

2

During or prior to such five Business Day period and thereafter, if the preceding sentence is complied with, the failure to previously pay such interest and fees at the correct Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage and the delivery of such inaccurate certificate shall not in and of themselves constitute a Default or Event of Default and no amounts shall be payable at the Default Rate in respect of any such interest or fees.
“Applicable Discount”: as defined in Section 4.4(f)(iii).

The Applicable Margins with respect to the Initial Term Loans will be adjusted on each Adjustment Date to the applicable rate per annum set forth under clause (b) of the definition of “Pricing Grid” under the heading “Applicable Margin for ABR Loans” or “Applicable Margin for EurocurrencyTerm SOFR Loans” which corresponds to the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio determined from the financial statements and Compliance Certificate relating to the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such Adjustment Date. If it is subsequently determined before, with respect to Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, the date on which all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans of the applicable Tranche have been repaid and all Revolving Commitments of the applicable Tranche have been terminated, and with respect to Initial Term Loans, the date on which all Initial Term Loans of the applicable Tranche have been repaid, that the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio set forth in any Compliance Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Revolving Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, received interest or fees for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Consolidated Total Corporate

1.5 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or a Designated Foreign Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (i) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; (ii) immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; (iii) immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and (iv) immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the monitoring, determination or verification of the unavailability or cessation of LIBOR (or otherany applicable Benchmark), the administration, submission of or any other matter related to SONIA, LIBOR, the BA Rate, the Applicable Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, SOFR, the Eurocurrency Rate or any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof or any alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment thereto (including any then-current Benchmark, or any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment (including any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment) will be similar to, or produce the same value of economic equivalence of, SONIA, the Eurocurrency Rate, the BA Rate, ABR, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, SOFR or any other Benchmark or any Benchmark convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant Governmental Body. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any SONIA, LIBOR, the BA Rate, the Eurocurrency Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, SOFR or any alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment (including any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers.

1.7 Calculation of Baskets. If (a) any of the baskets set forth in this Agreement are exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations to LTM Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed fiscal quarter after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose under this Agreement, such baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations or (b) any baskets, is exceeded, any representation or warranty would be untrue or inaccurate, any undertaking would be breached, or any event that would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, in each case, solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates, shall not be deemed to be exceeded, untrue, inaccurate, breached, exceeded or so constituted, as applicable, solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

151
which is based upon the Affected Eurocurrency Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans, (f) any Loans that were to have been continued as SONIA Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected SONIA shall be deemed to have been converted into Loans that bear interest at the Central Bank Rate; provided, that if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate cannot be determined, then such Loans shall be prepaid in full immediately,
(g) Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as BA Rate Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected BA Rate shall be converted to or continued as Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (h) any Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euro that were to have been continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Eurocurrency Rate shall (at the option of the Parent Borrower) remain outstanding, and shall bear interest at an alternate rate which reflects, as to each Lender, such Lender’s cost of funding such Eurocurrency Loans, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, plus the Applicable Margin hereunder.
(b) US Dollar Benchmark Replacement Setting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, with respect to any Loan or Borrowing denominated in US Dollars:
(i) Replacing USD LIBOR for Term Loans. With respect to any Term Loans, on the earlier of (i) the date that all Available Tenors of USD LIBOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative and (ii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then- current Benchmark with respect to such Term Loans is USD LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If such Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.
(i) [Reserved].
(ii) Replacing Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then- current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each Class. At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer
152
representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Parent Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Parent Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Parent Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans denominated in Dollars. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of ABR based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of ABR.
(iii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(iv) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.
(v) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.
