Note 1—Background
Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Global" when including its subsidiaries and variable interest entities and "Hertz Holdings" excluding its subsidiaries and variable interest entities) 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-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. Through its Donlen subsidiary, Hertz provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services.
Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Basis of Presentation
The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 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, 2017 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, 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, 2017 (the "2017 Form 10-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 27, 2018. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.
As disclosed below in "Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements," the Company adopted the financial statement disclosure guidance "Restricted Cash" on January 1, 2018.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. The Company is the primary beneficiary of certain variable interest entities, therefore, the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the variable interest entities are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. 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. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Correction of Errors
The Company identified classification errors within the operating and investing sections of its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017. One of the errors relates to its previous operations in Brazil and was previously disclosed in the Company's 2017 Form 10-K. The second error relates to $13 million of intangible software assets for which no payment was made as of March 31, 2017.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited
The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing the materiality of the classification errors individually, and in the aggregate, and determined that the classification errors were not material and revised the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017, accordingly. Correction of the errors decreased cash provided by operating activities for changes in non-vehicle accounts payable by $13 million and decreased cash used in investing activities by $13 million, comprised of a decrease in revenue earning vehicles expenditures of $25 million, a decrease in proceeds from disposals of revenue earning vehicles of $25 million and a decrease in capital asset expenditures, non-vehicle of $13 million. Also, there was a $13 million increase in the non-cash supplemental disclosure for purchases of non-vehicle capital assets included in accounts payable. These revisions had no impact to cash flows from financing activities. Additionally, these revisions had no impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 or its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued guidance that replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The FASB also issued several amendments and updates to the new revenue standard (collectively, “Topic 606”). Topic 606 applies to all contracts with customers except for leases, insurance contracts, financial instruments, certain nonmonetary exchanges and certain guarantees. The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue from customers for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services, as well as when an entity should recognize revenue gross as a principal or net as an agent and how an entity should identify performance obligations. Topic 606 requires disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The Company adopted Topic 606 on the effective date, January 1, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts. Prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted.
The impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows is primarily for revenue associated with the redemption of points earned by customers under the Company’s loyalty programs (“loyalty points”). For transactions that generate loyalty points to the customer, a portion of revenue is deferred until the loyalty points are redeemed by the customer. The amount of revenue deferred is equivalent to the retail value of each loyalty point less an estimated amount representing loyalty points that are not expected to be redeemed.
The cumulative effect of applying the new guidance to all contracts with customers that were not completed as of January 1, 2018 was recorded as an adjustment to accumulated deficit, net of tax, as of the adoption date as follows:

Restricted Cash
In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies existing guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The guidance requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Additionally, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance retrospectively in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2018.

Not Yet Adopted
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance (Topic "842") establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability based on the present value of future lease payments for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Topic 842 also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements. Additionally, enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases are required which provide financial statement users the ability to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Topic 842 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. The Company intends to adopt this guidance, in accordance with the effective date, on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for both lessees and lessors for existing leases at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating whether to avail itself of allowable practicable expedients during transition.

The Company is evaluating the Proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements that were tentatively affirmed by the FASB at its March 2018 meetings. The update provides a transition method that would allow the Company to only apply the new lease standard in the year of adoption. Additionally, it provides a practical expedient for lessors to combine non-lease components with the related lease components if certain conditions are met. This could allow the Company to account for all revenue earned from the operations of rental vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities under the new lease guidance.
Lessee
Adoption of Topic 842 will result in a material increase in the Company's lease-related assets and liabilities on its balance sheet, primarily for leases of rental locations and other assets. Additionally, adoption of this guidance will impact the statement of cash flows with respect to the presentation of the Company's operating activities, but is not expected to impact its presentation of investing or financing activities. Adoption of Topic 842 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has reached conclusions on key accounting assessments related to its leases and is performing an analysis of its lease portfolio to ensure proper application of the new guidance including implementation of internal controls over financial reporting.
Lessor
The Company has concluded that revenue earned from the rental and leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is within the scope of this guidance and that additional disclosures regarding lease revenue are required upon adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the breakdown of its vehicle rental revenues into lease and non-lease components. There is no impact to the nature, timing or recognition of rental lease revenue upon adoption of this guidance.
Reporting Comprehensive Income
In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance that allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA"). The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the TCJA is recognized. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. Adoption of this guidance will result in a reclassification of certain amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as of the date adopted.

(4) | In the case of the Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP ("HFLF") Medium Term Notes, such notes are repayable from cash flows derived from third-party leases comprising the underlying HFLF collateral pool. The initial maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the end of the revolving period for such series, at which time the related notes begin to amortize monthly by an amount equal to the lease collections payable to that series. To the extent the revolving period already has ended, the initial maturity date reflected is April 2018. The second maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the date by which Hertz and the investors in the related series expect such series of notes to be repaid in full, which is based upon various assumptions made at the time of pricing of such notes, including the contractual amortization of the underlying leases as well as the assumed rate of prepayments of such leases. Such maturity reference is to the “expected final maturity date” as opposed to the subsequent “legal final maturity date.” The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. Although the underlying lease cash flows that support the repayment of the HFLF Medium Term Notes may vary, the cash flows generally are expected to approximate a straight-line amortization of the related notes from the initial maturity date through the expected final maturity date. |
The Company is highly leveraged and a substantial portion of its liquidity needs arise from debt service on its indebtedness and from the funding of its costs of operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures. The Company’s practice is to maintain sufficient liquidity through cash from operations, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, to mitigate any adverse impact on its operations resulting from adverse financial market conditions. As of March 31, 2018, approximately $2.6 billion of vehicle debt and $23 million of non-vehicle debt was due to mature between April 1, 2018 and March 31, 2019.
The Company has reviewed its debt facilities and determined that it is probable that the Company will be able, and has the intent, to refinance these facilities at such times as the Company determines appropriate prior to their respective maturities.

European Vehicle Notes
In March 2018, HHN BV issued 5.50% Senior Notes due March 2023 in an aggregate original principal amount of €500 million (the "2023 Notes") and issued a notice of conditional full redemption for all of its outstanding 4.375% Senior Notes due January 2019 (the "2019 Notes"). As of March 31, 2018, €425 million, or $523 million, of the proceeds from the 2023 Notes were included in restricted cash in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet in connection with the redemption of the 2019 Notes in April 2018.
European Revolving Credit Facility
In March 2018, HHN BV amended its credit agreement ("European Revolving Credit Facility") to provide for aggregate maximum borrowing capacity (subject to borrowing base availability) of up to €438 million during the peak rental season, for a seasonal commitment period through October 2018. Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings available under the European Revolving Credit Facility will revert to up to €235 million (subject to borrowing base availability).
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 a standalone $400 million letter of credit facility that the Company entered into in 2017 (the "Letter of Credit Facility"). 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. The Company's ability to borrow under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility is a function of, among other things, the value of the assets in the relevant collateral pool. 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. 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). With respect to the Senior RCF and the Letter of Credit Facility, "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" is the same as "Remaining Capacity" since borrowings under the Senior RCF and the Letter of Credit Facility are not subject to a borrowing base.

Letters of Credit
As of March 31, 2018, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $661 million. Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to support the Company's insurance programs, vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds as well as to provide credit enhancement for its asset-backed securitization facilities. Of this amount, $648 million was issued under the Senior RCF and none were issued under the Letter of Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2018, there was no availability under the $400 million letter of credit facility (the "Letter of Credit Facility") and no letters of credit were issued thereunder. As of March 31, 2018, none of the issued letters of credit have been drawn upon.
Special Purpose Entities
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 and asset-backed securities programs. None of such assets (including the assets owned by Hertz Vehicle Financing II LP, Hertz Vehicle Financing LLC, Rental Car Finance LLC, DNRS II LLC, HFLF, Donlen Trust and various international subsidiaries that facilitate the Company's international securitizations) are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors.
The Company has a 25% ownership interest in International Fleet Financing No. 2 B.V. ("IFF No. 2"), a special purpose entity whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend 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 variable interest entity and the Company is the primary beneficiary, therefore, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of IFF No. 2 are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, IFF No. 2 had total assets of $713 million and $524 million, respectively, primarily comprised of loan receivables, and total liabilities of $713 million and $524 million, respectively, primarily comprised of debt and loan payables.
Covenant Compliance
The financial covenant provides that Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreements governing the Senior RCF and the Letter of Credit Facility, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter following and including

fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 (the "Covenant Leverage Ratio"), may not exceed a ratio of 3.00 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2018, Hertz was in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio.
Note 6—Revenue
The Company recognizes two types of revenue; (i) revenue from contracts with customers, and (ii) lease revenue, which is generated through the fleet leasing operations of its Donlen subsidiary.
As disclosed in the Revenue from Contracts with Customers section of Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” ("Note 2"), the Company adopted Topic 606 in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2018. Note 2 includes disclosures regarding the Company’s method of adoption and the impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In the Leases section of Note 2, the Company discloses that it has concluded that revenue earned from vehicle rentals, and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset, will be accounted for under Topic 842 upon its adoption. Until the Company adopts Topic 842, vehicle rental and rental related revenues are recognized in accordance with Topic 606.
The Company recognizes revenue net of any taxes or non-concession fees collected from customers on behalf of governmental authorities.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company operates at airport rental locations in the U.S. and internationally ("airport") and at off airport locations also in the U.S. and internationally ("off airport"). For the Company's airport company-operated rental locations, the Company has obtained concessions or similar leasing agreements or arrangements, granting it the right to conduct a vehicle rental business at the respective airport. The terms of an airport concession typically require the Company to pay the airport's operator concession fees based upon a specified percentage of the revenues it generates at the airport, subject to a minimum annual guarantee. The terms of the Company's concessions typically do not forbid it from seeking, and in a few instances actually require it to seek, reimbursement from customers for concession fees it pays; however, in certain jurisdictions the law limits or forbids the Company from doing so. Where the Company is required or permitted to seek such reimbursement, it is its general practice to do so. The Company's airport rental customers are typically airline travelers; whereas the Company's off airport rental customers include people who prefer to rent vehicles closer to their home or place of work for business or leisure purposes, as well as those needing to travel to or from airports. The Company's off airport customers also include people who have been referred by, or whose rental costs are being wholly or partially reimbursed by, insurance companies following accidents in which their vehicles were damaged, those expecting to lease vehicles that are not yet available from their leasing companies and replacement renters. In addition, the Company's off airport customers include drivers for transportation network companies ("TNC").

Vehicle Rental and Rental Related Revenues
The Company recognizes revenue from its vehicle rental operations when persuasive evidence of a contract exists, the performance obligations have been satisfied, the transaction price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Performance obligations associated with vehicle rental transactions are satisfied over the rental period, except for the portion associated with loyalty points, as further described below. Rental periods are short-term in nature. Therefore, the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient which eliminates the requirement to disclose information about remaining performance obligations. Performance obligations associated with rental related activities, such as charges to the customer for the fueling of vehicles and value-added services such as loss damage waivers, insurance products, navigation units, supplemental equipment and other consumables, are also satisfied over the rental period. Revenue from charges that are passed through to the customer, such as gasoline, vehicle licensing and airport concession fees, is recorded on a gross basis with a corresponding charge to direct vehicle and operating expense. Sales commissions paid to third parties are generally expensed when incurred due to the short-term nature of the related transaction on which the commission was earned and are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses. Payments are due from customers at the completion of the rental, except for customers with negotiated payment terms, generally net 30 days or less, which are invoiced and remain as accounts receivable until collected.
Loyalty Programs - The Company offers loyalty programs, primarily Hertz Gold Plus Rewards, wherein customers are eligible to earn loyalty points that are redeemable for free rental days or can be converted to loyalty points for redemption of products and services under loyalty programs of other companies. Each transaction that generates loyalty points results in the deferral of revenue equivalent to the retail value of the redemption of the loyalty points. The associated revenue is recognized when the customer redeems the loyalty points at some point in the future. The retail value of loyalty points is estimated based on the expected retail value of the future vehicle rental to be provided less an estimated amount representing loyalty points that are not expected to be redeemed (“breakage”). Breakage is estimated on a quarterly basis and includes significant assumptions, such as historical breakage trends and internal Company forecasts. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, based on the net impact of loyalty points earned and redeemed by customers, the Company recognized $3 million of revenue. As of March 31, 2018, the value of unredeemed loyalty points was $266 million, which is recorded as a contract liability in accrued liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited
Customer Rebates - The Company has business customers that rent vehicles based on terms that have been negotiated through contracts with their employers, or other entities with which they are associated (“commercial contracts”), which can differ substantially from the terms on which the Company rents vehicles to the general public. Some of the commercial contracts contain provisions which allow for rebates to the entity based on achieving a specific rental volume threshold. Rebates are treated as variable consideration and are recognized as a reduction of revenue at the time of the rental based on the rebate expected to be earned by the entity.
Licensee Revenue
The Company has franchise agreements which allow an independent entity to rent their vehicles under the Company’s brands, primarily Hertz, Dollar or Thrifty, for a fee (“franchise fee”). Franchise fees are earned over time for the duration of the franchise agreement and are typically based on the larger of a minimum payment or an amount representing a percentage of net sales of the franchised business. Franchise fees are recognized as earned and when collectability is reasonably assured. Franchise fees that relate to a future contract term, such as initial fees or renewal fees, are deferred and recognized over the term of the franchise agreement. The Company has elected to apply one of the practical expedients under Topic 606, and as such the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for sales-based royalty fees from franchisees is not disclosed.
Ancillary Retail Vehicle Sales Revenue
Ancillary retail vehicle sales represent revenues generated from the sale of warranty contracts, financing and title fees, and other ancillary services associated with vehicles disposed of at the Company’s retail outlets. These revenues are recorded at the point in time when the Company sells the product or provides the service to the customer. These revenues exclude the sale price of the vehicle which is a component of the gain or loss on the disposition and is included in depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net.
Fleet Management Revenue
The Company's Donlen subsidiary generates revenue from various fleet management services, such as fuel purchasing and management, preventive maintenance, repair consultation, toll management and accident management. Fleet management revenue is recognized net of any fees collected from customers on behalf of third party service providers, as services are rendered.
Contract Balances
The Company recognizes receivables and liabilities resulting from its contracts with customers. Contract receivables primarily consist of receivables from customers for vehicle rentals. Contract liabilities primarily consist of obligations to customers for prepaid vehicle rentals and related to the Company’s points-based loyalty programs.
The contract liability balance as of March 31, 2018 was $388 million and is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract liability as of January 1, 2018, after giving effect to the adoption of Topic 606, was $345 million and revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 for such contract liabilities was $55 million.
Note 7—Income Tax (Provision) Benefit
The Company recognized the income tax effects of the tax reform legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") in its audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2017 Form 10-K in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which provides SEC staff guidance for the application of Topic 740, Income Taxes, in the reporting period in which the TCJA was signed into law. The guidance also provides for a measurement period of up to one year from the enactment date for the Company to complete the accounting for the U.S. tax law changes. As such, the Company’s 2017 financial results reflected the provisional estimate of the income tax effects of the TCJA. No subsequent adjustments have been made to the amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017, which continue to represent a provisional estimate of the impact of TCJA. The estimate of the impact of TCJA
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited
is based on certain assumptions and the Company's current interpretation, and may change, as the Company receives additional clarification and implementation guidance and as the interpretation of the TCJA evolves over time.
The Company continues to analyze the impact of TCJA provisions effective January 1, 2018. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2018 incorporates the TCJA's changes to deductions for executive compensation and meals and entertainment. Other provisions effective January 1, 2018 include global intangible low-tax income ("GILTI"), base erosion anti-avoidance tax ("BEAT"), foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII"), and the interest deduction limitation. As of March 31, 2018, the Company estimates no short-to-medium term tax liability related to GILTI, BEAT, FDII, or the interest deduction limitation. These are estimates and are based on the Company's current interpretation of the TCJA. These assumptions and interpretations may change as additional clarification and implementation guidance are issued as the interpretation of the TCJA evolves over time.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was 13% and 24%, respectively. The Company recorded a tax benefit of $29 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $71 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The lower effective income tax rate and related tax benefit were primarily due to the reduced corporate tax rate as a result of the TCJA and the composition of earnings by jurisdictions.

Note 9—Fair Value Measurements
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The fair value of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, 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, Restricted Cash Equivalents and Investments
The Company’s cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents primarily consist of investments in money market funds and time deposits. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs).
Investments in equity securities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of available for sale securities.
The following table summarizes the ending balances of the Company's cash equivalents, restricted cash equivalents and investments:

Legal Proceedings
Public Liability and Property Damage
The Company is currently a defendant in numerous actions and has received numerous claims on which actions have not yet been commenced for public liability and property damage arising from the operation of motor vehicles rented from the Company. The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles, as stated on 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 a non-discounted basis. Reserve requirements 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 March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company's liability recorded for public liability and property damage matters was $438 million and $427 million, respectively. The Company believes that its analysis is based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions, and that the Company may prudently rely on this information to determine the estimated liability. The liability is subject to significant uncertainties. The adequacy of the liability reserve 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.
Other Matters
From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings, typically involving operational issues common to the vehicle rental business, including claims by employees and former employees, and governmental investigations. The Company has summarized below the most significant legal proceedings to which the Company was and/or is a party to during the three months ended March 31, 2018 or the period after March 31, 2018, but before the filing of this Report on Form 10‑Q.
In re Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation - In November 2013, a purported shareholder class action, Pedro Ramirez, Jr. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., was commenced in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey naming Old Hertz Holdings (as defined in the Company's 2017 Form 10-K) and certain of its officers as defendants and alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The complaint alleged that Old Hertz Holdings made material misrepresentations and/or omissions of material fact in its public disclosures during the period from February 25, 2013 through November 4, 2013, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint sought an unspecified amount of monetary damages on behalf of the purported class and an award of costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees. In June 2014, Old Hertz Holdings responded to the amended complaint by filing a motion to dismiss. After a hearing in October 2014, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss the complaint. The dismissal was without prejudice and plaintiff was granted leave to file a second amended complaint within 30 days of the order. In November 2014, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint which shortened the putative class period such that it was not alleged to have commenced until May 18, 2013 and made allegations that were not substantively very different than the allegations in the prior complaint. In early 2015, this case was assigned to a new federal judge in the District of New Jersey, and Old Hertz Holdings responded to the second amended complaint by filing another motion to dismiss. On July 22, 2015, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss without prejudice and ordered that plaintiff could file a third amended complaint on or before August 22, 2015. On August 21, 2015, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint. The third amended complaint included additional allegations, named additional current and former officers as defendants and expanded the putative class period such that it was alleged to span from February 14, 2013 to July 16, 2015. On November 4, 2015, Old Hertz Holdings filed its motion to dismiss. Thereafter, a motion was made by plaintiff to add a new plaintiff because of challenges to the standing of the first plaintiff. The court granted plaintiffs leave to file a fourth amended complaint to add the new plaintiff, and the new complaint was filed on March 1, 2016. Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the fourth amended complaint in its entirety with prejudice on March 24, 2016, and plaintiff filed its opposition to same on May 6, 2016. On June 13, 2016, Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants filed their reply briefs in support of their motions to dismiss. The matter is now fully briefed. On April 28, 2017, the court issued an order wherein Old Hertz Holdings' and the individual defendants' motions to dismiss were granted and the plaintiffs’ fourth amended complaint to add a new plaintiff was dismissed with prejudice (the “Order”). On May 30, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal with the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. The plaintiffs filed their Initial Brief in November 2017 and Hertz’s Opposition Brief was filed in January 2018. The plaintiffs’ Reply Brief was filed in February 2018 so all of the briefing is concluded. Oral arguments have been requested. It is expected that the Third Circuit will rule on this appeal before the end of 2018.
The Company intends to assert that it has meritorious defenses in the foregoing matters and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself.
Governmental Investigations - In June 2014, the Company was advised by the staff of the New York Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that it is investigating the events disclosed in certain of the Company’s filings with the SEC. In addition, in December 2014, a state securities regulator requested information - an investigation that has since closed - and starting in June 2016 the Company has had communications with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey regarding the same or similar events. The investigations and communications generally involve the restatements included in the Old Hertz
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited
Holdings Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC on July 16, 2015 (the “Old Hertz Holdings 2014 10-K”) and related accounting for prior periods. The Company has and intends to continue to cooperate with all requests related to the foregoing. Due to the stage at which the proceedings are, Hertz is currently unable to predict the likely outcome of the proceedings or estimate the range of reasonably possible losses, which may be material. Among other matters, the restatements included in the Old Hertz Holdings 2014 Form 10-K addressed a variety of accounting matters involving the Company’s Brazil vehicle rental operations.
Additionally, the Company has identified certain activities in Brazil that raise issues under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and may raise issues under other federal and local laws, which the Company has self-reported to appropriate government entities and the processes with certain of these government entities continue. The Company has established a reserve relating to the activities in Brazil which is not material. However, it is possible that an adverse outcome with respect to the activities in Brazil and the other issues discussed herein 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.
French Road Tax - The French Tax Authority has challenged the historic practice of several vehicle rental companies, including Hertz France, of registering vehicles in jurisdictions where it is established and where the road tax payable with respect to those vehicles is lower than the road tax payable in the jurisdictions where the vehicles will primarily be used. In respect of a period in 2005, the Company has unsuccessfully appealed the French Tax assessment to the highest Administrative court in France. In respect of a period from 2003 to 2005, following an adverse judgment, the Company appealed the French Tax Authority’s assessment to the Civil Court of Appeal. In March 2017, the Company received an adverse judgment in the 2003 -2005 road tax appeal from the Civil Court of Appeal. The Company appealed this decision to the Supreme Civil Court in May 2017. In December 2017, the French Tax Authority issued an assessment for registration tax for the year 2014 and the Company submitted a rebuttal to the French Tax Authority in February 2018. The Company began reserving for this matter in 2015 and assesses the reserve on a quarterly basis as part of the financial statements close process.
In addition to the matters described above, the Company maintains an internal compliance program through which it from time to time identifies other potential violations of laws and regulations applicable to the Company. When the Company identifies such matters, the Company conducts an internal investigation and otherwise cooperates with governmental authorities, as appropriate.
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 public liability and property damage, none of those reserves are material. For matters, including certain of those described above, 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, including those discussed above, 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 accompanying consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.
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
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

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 Spin-Off, the Company executed an agreement with Herc Holdings 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 have accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable.
Note 11—Related Party Transactions
Agreements with the Icahn Group
In the normal course of business, the Company purchases goods and services and leases property from entities controlled by Carl C. Icahn and his affiliates, including The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company purchased approximately $6 million and $2 million, respectively, worth of goods and services from these related parties.
Transactions between Hertz Holdings and Hertz
In June 2016, Hertz entered into a master loan agreement with Hertz Holdings for a facility size of $425 million with an expiration in June 2017 (the "2016 Master Loan"). The interest rate was based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate plus a margin.
In June 2017, upon expiration of the 2016 Master Loan, Hertz entered into a new master loan agreement with Hertz Holdings for a facility size of $425 million with an expiration in June 2018 (the "2017 Master Loan") where amounts outstanding under the 2016 Master Loan were transferred to the 2017 Master Loan. The interest rate is based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate plus a margin. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was $111 million and $107 million, respectively, outstanding under the 2017 Master Loan representing advances and any accrued but unpaid interest.
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Hertz has a due to affiliate in the amount of $65 million, which represents its tax related liability to Hertz Holdings.
The above amounts are included in equity in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets of Hertz.

Other Relationships
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 the Icahn Group, the option to acquire certain vehicles from Hertz at rates aligned with the rates at which Hertz sells vehicles to third parties. Hertz will lease the vehicles, purchased by 767 under the 767 Lease Agreement or from third parties, under a mutually developed fleet plan and Hertz will manage, service, repair, sell and maintain those leased vehicles on behalf of 767. Hertz will rent the leased vehicles to drivers of TNC, including Lyft drivers, from rental counters within locations leased or owned by affiliates of 767, including locations operated under a master lease agreement with The Pep Boys - Manny, Joe & Jack. The 767 Lease Agreement has an initial term of 18 months and is subject to automatic six-month renewals thereafter, unless terminated by either party (with or without cause) prior to the start of any such six-month renewal. 767’s payment obligations under the 767 Lease Agreement are guaranteed by American Entertainment Properties Corp., an entity affiliated with Mr. Icahn. 767 commenced operations in late-March 2018.
The Company is entitled to 25% of the profit from the rental of the leased vehicles, as specified in the 767 Lease Agreement, which is variable and based primarily on the rental revenue, less certain costs, such as depreciation, licensing and maintenance expenses. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of 767 due to its power to direct the activities of 767 that most significantly impact 767's economic performance and the Company's obligation to absorb 25% of 767's gains/losses. Accordingly, 767 is consolidated by the Company as a VIE.
Note 12—Segment Information
The Company has identified three reportable segments, which are organized based on the products and services provided by its operating segments and the geographic areas in which its operating segments conduct business, as follows:
| |
• | U.S. Rental Car ("U.S. RAC") - rental of vehicles (cars, crossovers and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S. and consists of the Company's U.S. operating segment; |
| |
• | International Rental Car ("International RAC") - rental and leasing of vehicles (cars, vans, crossovers and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services, internationally and consists of the Company's Europe and Other International operating segments, which are aggregated into a reportable segment based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, products and services, customers, delivery methods and general regulatory environments; |
| |
• | All Other Operations - primarily consists of the Company's Donlen business, which provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services, together with other business activities which represent less than 2% of revenues and expenses of the segment. |
In addition to the above reportable segments, the Company has corporate operations ("Corporate") which includes general corporate assets and expenses and certain interest expense (including net interest on non-vehicle debt).

Note 13—Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information - Hertz
The following condensed consolidating financial information presents the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and the Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 of (a) The Hertz Corporation, ("Parent”); (b) the Parent's subsidiaries that guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (c) the Parent's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (d) elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent with the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries ("Eliminations"); and of (e) Hertz on a consolidated basis.
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned by the Parent and all guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. Additionally, substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are pledged under the Senior Facilities and Senior Second Priority Secured Notes, and consequently will not be available to satisfy the claims of Hertz's general creditors. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, Hertz has included the accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements based on Rule 3-10 of the SEC's Regulation S-X. Management of Hertz does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to Hertz's investors; therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented.
During the preparation of the condensed consolidating financial information of The Hertz Corporation and Subsidiaries as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, it was determined that there were classification errors within the investing section of the statements of cash flows that resulted in overstatement of capital contributions to subsidiaries and return of capital from subsidiaries for the Parent and classification errors within the financing section of the statements of cash flows that resulted in overstatement of capital contributions received from parent and payment of dividends and returns of capital for the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The overstatement was $134 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The errors, which the Company has determined are not material to this disclosure, had no impact to cash from investing activities for the Parent or cash from financing activities of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, and had no impact to any cash flows of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. These errors are eliminated in consolidation and therefore have no impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has revised the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the Parent, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to correct for these errors.

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"). As Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes, disclosures that relate to activities of Hertz also apply to Hertz Global, unless otherwise noted. 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 for Hertz also applies to Hertz Global in all material respects and 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.
Management’s discussion and analysis ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the MD&A presented in our 2017 Form 10‑K and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018 (this "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 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 certain key metrics and Non-GAAP measures, including the following:
| |
• | Adjusted Pre-Tax Income (Loss) - important 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 them to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally. |
| |
• | Net Depreciation Per Unit Per Month - important 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 time of disposal and expected hold period of the vehicles. Net 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 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 to management and investors as it provides a measure of revenue productivity relative to the total number of vehicles in our fleet whether owned or leased ("average vehicles" or "fleet capacity"). |
| |
• | Transaction Days - important 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. |
| |
• | Vehicle Utilization - important to management and investors because it is the measurement of the proportion of our vehicles that are being used to generate revenues relative to fleet capacity. Higher vehicle utilization means more vehicles are being utilized to generate revenue. |

OUR COMPANY
Hertz Global 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 through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from approximately 10,200 corporate and franchisee locations in North America, Europe, Latin America, Africa, Asia, Australia, the Caribbean, the Middle East and New Zealand. We are one of the largest worldwide airport general use vehicle rental companies and our Hertz brand name is one of the most recognized in the world, signifying leadership in quality rental services and products. We have an extensive network of rental locations in the U.S. and in all major European markets. We believe that we maintain one of the leading airport vehicle rental brand market shares, by overall reported revenues, in the U.S. and at major airports in Europe where data regarding vehicle rental concessionaire activity is available. We are a leading provider of comprehensive, integrated vehicle leasing and fleet management solutions through our Donlen subsidiary.
OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
We are engaged principally in the business of renting and leasing vehicles primarily through our Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands. In addition to vehicle rental, we provide comprehensive, integrated vehicle leasing and fleet management solutions through our Donlen subsidiary. We have a diversified revenue base and a highly variable cost structure and are able to adjust fleet capacity, the most significant determinant of our costs, over time to meet expectations of market demand. 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. Our business requires significant expenditures for vehicles, and consequently we require substantial liquidity to finance such expenditures. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.
Our strategy includes optimization of our vehicle rental operations, disciplined performance management and evaluation of all locations and the pursuit of same-store sales growth.
Our total revenues primarily are derived from rental and related charges and consist of:
| |
• | Vehicle rental revenues - revenues from all company-operated vehicle rental operations, including 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 associated with vehicle rentals, including the sale of loss or collision damage waivers, liability insurance coverage, parking and other products and fees, value-added services associated with the retail vehicle sales channel and certain royalty fees from our franchisees (such fees are less than 2% of total revenues each period); |
| |
• | All other operations revenues - revenues from vehicle leasing and fleet management services and other business activities. |
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
| |
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) |
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 net gains or losses on the disposal of such vehicles); |
| |
• | Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A"), which include costs for information technology and finance transformation programs; and |
Our Business Segments
We have identified three reportable segments, which are organized based on the products and services provided by our operating segments and the geographic areas in which our operating segments conduct business, as follows:
| |
• | U.S. Rental Car ("U.S. RAC") - Rental of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S.; |
| |
• | International Rental Car ("International RAC") - Rental and leasing of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, internationally; and |
| |
• | All Other Operations - Comprised primarily of our Donlen business, which provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services, and other business activities. |
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.
Fleet
We periodically review and adjust the mix between program and non-program vehicles in our fleet in an effort to optimize the mix of vehicles. Program vehicles generally provide us with flexibility to increase or reduce the size of our fleet based on economic demand. When we increase the percentage of program vehicles, the average age of our fleet decreases since the average holding period for program vehicles is shorter than for non-program vehicles. We dispose of our non-program vehicles via auction, dealer-direct and our retail locations. Non-program vehicles disposed of through our retail outlets allow us the opportunity for value-added revenue, such as warranty and financing and title fees. We adjust the ratio of program and non-program vehicles in our fleet as needed based on contract negotiations and the economic environment pertaining to our industry.
Seasonality
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 peak ("our peak season") for the majority of countries where we generate our revenues. To accommodate increased demand, we increase our available fleet and staff during the second and third quarters of the year. As business demand declines, vehicles 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. In addition, our management expects to utilize enhanced process improvements, including utilization initiatives and the use of our information technology systems, to help manage our variable costs. Generally, between 70% and 75% of our annual operating costs represent variable costs, while the remaining costs are fixed or semi-fixed. 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, the costs of operating our information technology systems and minimum staffing costs, remain fixed and cannot be adjusted for seasonal demand.

Adoption of the new Revenue Standard
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted the new revenue standard, Topic 606, which resulted in a net increase to beginning accumulated deficit in the amount of $189 million related to the cumulative effect of our loyalty program. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have a significant impact to our results of operations for the first quarter of 2018. See the Revenue from Contracts with Customers section in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements" for further information.
2018 Operating Overview
The following provides an overview of our business and financial performance and key factors influencing our results:
| |
• | Total revenues for U.S. RAC for the first quarter of 2018 increased $73 million, or 5%, compared to 2017 driven by a 6% increase in transaction days, partially offset by a 1% decrease in Total RPD; |
| |
• | DOE as a percentage of total revenues for U.S. RAC was 65% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to 64% for the first quarter of 2017, an increase of 140 bps, and SG&A as a percentage of total revenues for U.S. RAC was 7% for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, a decrease of 10 bps; |
| |
• | Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for U.S. RAC decreased 13% to $434 million from $499 million for the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017. Net depreciation per unit per month in U.S. RAC decreased 13% to $302 from $348 for the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017; |
| |
• | Total revenues for International RAC increased $57 million, or 14%, for the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, total revenues for International RAC increased $12 million, or 3% for the first quarter 2018 versus 2017, driven by a 5% increase in Total RPD, partially offset by a 2% decrease in transaction days; |
| |
• | DOE as a percentage of total revenues for International RAC was 64% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to 65% for the first quarter of 2017, a decrease of 90 bps, and SG&A as a percentage of total revenues for International RAC was 13% for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, an increase of 10 bps; |

Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Total revenues increased $147 million, or 8%, due primarily to an increase of $73 million, $57 million and $17 million in our U.S. RAC segment, International RAC segment, and All Other Operations segment, respectively. U.S. RAC revenues increased due to 6% higher volume, comprised of a 14% increase for our off airport business and a 1% increase for our airport business, partially offset by a 1% decrease in Total RPD due primarily to a change in mix between our airport and off airport business. Excluding a $45 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, International RAC revenues increased $12 million, or 3%, driven by a 5% increase in Total RPD, partially offset by a 2% decrease in transaction days. Total revenues in our All Other Operations segment increased $17 million primarily due to an increase in Donlen's leasing volume.
DOE increased $104 million year over year primarily due to increases of $66 million and $33 million in our U.S. RAC segment and International RAC segment, respectively. The increase in our U.S. RAC segment is due to an increase of $28 million in personnel related expenses, a $21 million increase in vehicle related expenses and a $15 million increase in other DOE. Excluding the $31 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, DOE for International RAC was flat.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net decreased $40 million, or 6%, primarily due to a $65 million decrease in our U.S. RAC segment resulting from decreases in losses on disposal of revenue earning vehicles and per vehicle depreciation rates in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. The decrease was partially offset by a $17 million increase in our International RAC segment. Excluding the $11 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for our International RAC segment increased $6 million resulting from higher per vehicle depreciation rates, partially offset by a decrease in average vehicles.
SG&A increased $14 million, or 6%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017, due to an increase of $29 million in advertising, incentive compensation, information technology and finance transformation program costs and other expenses, partially offset by an $15 million decrease in net restructuring related and litigation expenses. The above changes are primarily related to our International and U.S. RAC operations. Excluding the $7 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, SG&A for International RAC was flat.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) |
Vehicle interest expense, net increased $23 million, or 32%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017 primarily due to higher market interest rates, higher margins on bank funded facilities, and higher rates associated with increasing the mix of medium term funding.
Non-vehicle interest expense, net increased $13 million, or 22%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017, primarily due to higher outstanding non-vehicle debt balances along with increased interest rates associated with the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes which were issued in the second quarter of 2017.
We had other income of $3 million for the first quarter of 2018 compared to other expense of $27 million in the first quarter of 2017, which was primarily comprised of a $30 million impairment of an equity method investment.
The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2018 was 13% compared to 24% in the first quarter of 2017. Hertz recorded a tax benefit of $29 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $71 million in the first quarter of 2017. The lower effective income tax rate and related tax benefit were primarily due to the reduced corporate tax rate as a result of the TCJA, and the composition of earnings by jurisdictions.
Adjusted pre-tax loss was $174 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $212 million in the first quarter of 2017. See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - HERTZ GLOBAL
The above discussion for Hertz also applies to Hertz Global.
Hertz Global had $1 million of interest expense, net for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017 that was incremental to the amounts shown for Hertz. This amount represents interest associated with amounts outstanding under a master loan agreement between the companies. Hertz includes this amount as interest income in its statement of operations but this amount is eliminated in consolidation for purposes of Hertz Global.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Total U.S. RAC revenues were $1.4 billion in the first quarter of 2018, an increase of $73 million, or 5%, from the first quarter of 2017. Transaction days increased 6% driven by a 14% increase in our off airport business and a 1% increase in our airport business. Off airport volume increased due to growth in our TNC and insurance replacement rentals. Total RPD decreased 1% due primarily to a change in mix between our airport and off airport business. Off airport revenues comprised 31% of total revenues for the segment in the first quarter of 2018 as compared to 28% in the first quarter of 2017.
DOE for U.S. RAC increased $66 million, or 8%, primarily due to the following:
| |
• | Vehicle related expenses increased $21 million compared to the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to: |
| |
◦ | Increased maintenance expense of $12 million driven primarily by the preparation and maintenance of TNC vehicles and an increase in the number of pre-owned vehicles included in our fleet. |
| |
◦ | Increased transportation expense of $7 million driven by increased usage and higher rates from third-party transportation providers. |
| |
• | Personnel related expenses increased $28 million compared to the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to an increase in the number of field personnel as part of our ongoing initiative to increase customer satisfaction and the implementation of additional employee incentive programs. |
| |
• | Other DOE increased $15 million compared to the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to $5 million of increased commissions driven by increased rates and volume growth with our on-line travel partners and a $10 million increase in facilities and other DOE expenses. |
DOE as a percentage of total revenues for U.S. RAC was 65% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to 64% for the first quarter of 2017, an increase of 140 bps, and SG&A as a percentage of total revenues for U.S. RAC was 7% for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, a decrease of 10 bps.

Depreciation rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis based on management's routine review of present and estimated future market conditions and their effect on residual values at the time of disposal. Depreciation rates being used to compute the provision for depreciation of revenue earning vehicles are adjusted on certain vehicles in our vehicle rental operations to reflect changes in the estimated residual values to be realized when revenue earning vehicles are sold based on the expected hold period for the vehicles. The change in estimate, based on the review completed for U.S. RAC during the first quarter of 2018, resulted in additional depreciation expense of $9 million. The first quarter of 2018 rate change reflects declining residual values on large sport utility vehicles. The change in estimate, based on the review completed for U.S. RAC during the first quarter of 2017, resulted in additional depreciation expense of $26 million primarily as the result of declining residual values in the industry and shortened hold periods on certain non-program vehicles as we rebalanced the fleet.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for U.S. RAC decreased by $65 million, or 13%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. The decrease year over year is primarily the result of a $39 million decrease in losses on disposal of revenue earning vehicles, excluding costs associated with vehicle sales operations, and decreased per vehicle depreciation rates. Net depreciation per unit per month decreased to $302 in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $348 in the first quarter of 2017.
Loss before income taxes for U.S. RAC was $68 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $132 million in the first quarter of 2017. The $64 million year over year variance is primarily due to the impact of increased revenues and decreased depreciation expense on our revenue earning vehicles, partially offset by an increase in DOE as discussed above.
Adjusted pre-tax loss for U.S. RAC was $48 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $116 million in the first quarter of 2017.

Total revenues for International RAC increased $57 million, or 14%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. Excluding a $45 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, revenues increased $12 million, or 3%, driven by an increase in pricing, partially offset by lower volume. Total RPD for International RAC increased 5% due to improved pricing in our leisure markets and the sale of our lower RPD operations in Brazil in the third quarter of 2017. Transaction

days decreased 2% mostly due to the sale of our Brazil operations. Excluding the impact of the sale of our Brazil operations, Total RPD and transactions days increased 2% and 4%, respectively.
DOE for International RAC increased $33 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. Excluding a $31 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, DOE was flat as compared to the prior year primarily due to an increase of $4 million in maintenance and damage charges, offset by a $4 million decrease in PLPD expense due to increased charges in the first quarter of 2017 resulting from adverse case development and decreased charges in the first quarter of 2018.
DOE as a percentage of total revenues for International RAC was 64% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to 65% for the first quarter of 2017, a decrease of 90 bps, and SG&A as a percentage of total revenues for International RAC was 13% for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, an increase of 10 bps.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for International RAC increased $17 million, or 20%, in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. Excluding the $11 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net increased $6 million or 6% primarily due to higher per vehicle depreciation rates, which was driven by declining residual values on diesel vehicles in Europe and the divestiture of our Brazil operations, partially offset by improvements in fleet procurement and rotation. The above was partially offset by a 1% decrease in average vehicles in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. Net depreciation per unit per month for International RAC increased 9% to $222 from $204 for the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017.
Loss before income taxes for International RAC was $12 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $5 million in the first quarter of 2017. The increased loss year over year is primarily due to increased DOE and depreciation expense on our revenue earning vehicles as discussed above. Additionally, there was an increase of $8 million in SG&A primarily due to a $7 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates. The above increases in expense were partially offset by an increase in revenues.
Adjusted pre-tax loss for International RAC was $6 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $4 million in the first quarter of 2017. See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.

Increases in DOE were due to charges related to new leases entered into during the period. The decrease in overall average vehicles is due to a reduction in non-lease units in our maintenance management programs which drive a lower revenue per unit when compared to lease units under these programs.

(a) | Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is calculated as income (loss) before income taxes plus non-cash acquisition accounting charges, debt-related charges relating to the amortization and write-off of debt financing costs and debt discounts and premiums, goodwill, intangible and tangible asset impairments and write downs, information technology and finance transformation costs and certain other miscellaneous or non-recurring items. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is important because it allows management to assess operational performance of our business, exclusive of the items mentioned above. It also 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 them to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally. When evaluating our operating performance, investors should not consider adjusted pre-tax income (loss) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance, such as net income (loss) or income (loss) before income taxes. The contribution of our reportable segments to adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and reconciliation to the most comparable consolidated GAAP measure are presented below: |

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.
As of March 31, 2018, we had $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $894 million of restricted cash. Of these amounts, $312 million of cash and cash equivalents and $576 million of restricted cash was held by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. If not in the form of loan repayments, repatriation of some of these funds under current regulatory and tax law for use in domestic operations would expose us to additional 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 operating requirements for the next twelve months.
Cash Flows - Hertz
As of March 31, 2018, Hertz had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $1.9 billion as compared to $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2017. The following table summarizes the net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash for the periods shown:

|
During the first quarter of 2018, there was a $77 million increase in cash outflows from working capital accounts period over period and a reduction of cash inflows of $7 million from net income excluding non-cash items. The change from working capital accounts was due primarily to a $165 million decrease in cash due in part to an increase in customer receivables related to increased revenue year over year and an increase in value-added tax receivables in our International RAC segment. The above was partially offset by a $88 million increase in cash due in part to an increase in accrued interest, prepaid rentals and insurance payables.
Our primary investing activities relate to the acquisition and disposals of revenue earning vehicles. There was a $923 million increase in the use of cash for investing activities year over year primarily due to a $728 million increase in cash outflows for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles in U.S. RAC due to a higher volume of vehicles acquired earlier in 2018 versus 2017 and a decrease in proceeds from the sale of revenue earnings vehicles of $153 million due to fewer vehicle dispositions year over year.
There were net cash inflows of $1.9 billion for financing activities for the first quarter of 2018 compared to $390 million for the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to the issuance of $1.0 billion HVF II Series 2018-1 Notes to third parties and €500 million HHN BV 5.50% Senior Notes due March 2023.

Fluctuations in operating, investing and financing cash flows from period to period are due to the same factors as those disclosed for Hertz above, with the exception of any cash inflows or outflows related to the master loan agreement between Hertz and Hertz Global and cash outflows by Hertz Global for the purchase of treasury shares. There were no purchases of treasury shares by Hertz Global during the first quarter of 2018 or 2017.
Financing
Our primary liquidity needs include servicing of vehicle and non-vehicle debt, the payment of operating expenses and capital projects and purchases of revenue earning vehicles to be used in our operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating cash flows, cash received on the disposal of revenue earning vehicles, borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and access to the credit markets. Substantially all of our revenue earning vehicles and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities, or are encumbered in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities, other secured financings and asset-backed securities programs. None of such assets are available to satisfy the claims of our general creditors.
We are highly leveraged, and a substantial portion of our liquidity needs arise from debt service on our indebtedness and from the funding of our costs of operations, capital expenditures and acquisitions. Our practice is to maintain sufficient total liquidity through cash from operations, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, to mitigate any adverse effect on our operations resulting from adverse financial market conditions.
Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 5, "Debt," to the Notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information on our outstanding debt obligations and our borrowing capacity and availability under our revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2018. Cash paid for interest during the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $82 million for interest on vehicle debt and $28 million for interest on non-vehicle debt.

Approximately $2.0 billion of vehicle debt and $23 million of non-vehicle debt will mature during the twelve months following the issuance of this Report (the "next twelve months") and we will need to refinance a portion of the debt. We have reviewed the maturing debt obligations and determined that it is probable that we will be able, and has the intent, to repay or refinance these facilities at such times as we deem appropriate prior to their maturities. We believe that cash generated from operations, cash received on the disposal of vehicles, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities and refinancing options available to us, will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt maturities over the next twelve months.
Covenants
The indentures for the Senior Notes and the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Hertz credit group to incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, prepay certain indebtedness, make certain restricted payments (including paying dividends, redeeming stock or making other distributions to parent entities of Hertz and other persons outside of the Hertz credit group), make investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, merge or consolidate, and enter into certain transactions with Hertz's affiliates that are not members of the Hertz credit group.
Certain of our other debt instruments and credit facilities (including the Senior Facilities and the Letter of Credit Facility) contain a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the borrowers and the guarantors to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, prepay certain indebtedness, make certain restricted payments (including paying dividends, share repurchases or making other distributions), create liens, make investments, make acquisitions, engage in mergers, fundamentally change the nature of their business, make capital expenditures, or engage in certain transactions with certain affiliates.
The Senior RCF and the Letter of Credit Facility contain a financial maintenance covenant applicable to such facilities. Such covenant provides that Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreements governing such facilities (together, the "Senior Credit Agreement"), as of the last day of any fiscal quarter following and including fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 (the "Covenant Leverage Ratio"), may not exceed a ratio of 3.00 to 1.00.
As of March 31, 2018, Hertz was in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio with a ratio of 1.76 to 1.00, as calculated in accordance with the Senior Credit Agreement. Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement, is a component of the calculation of the Covenant Leverage Ratio and is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not a measure of operating results, but instead is a measure used to determine compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio under the Senior Credit Agreement. Consolidated EBITDA is generally defined in the Senior Credit Agreement as consolidated net income plus the sum of income taxes, non-vehicle interest expense, non-vehicle depreciation and amortization expense, and non-cash charges or losses, as further adjusted for certain other items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the Senior RCF and the Letter of Credit Facility, including add-backs for non-recurring, unusual or extraordinary charges, business optimization expenses or other restructuring charges or reserves.
Based on available liquidity from our expected operating results, the Senior RCF and other financing arrangements, Hertz expects to continue to be in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio for at least the next twelve months.

Indemnification Obligations
There have been no significant changes to our indemnification obligations as compared to those disclosed in Note 16, "Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments" of the Notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2017 Form 10‑K under the caption Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with indemnification obligations and will accrue for expected losses when they are probable and estimable.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements," to the Notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report ("Note 2").
As disclosed in Note 2, we adopted Topic 606 in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2018. The Revenue from Contracts with Customers section of Note 2 includes disclosures regarding our method of adoption and the impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. See Note 6, "Revenue," for information regarding our accounting policies for revenue recognition, including the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, as well as other required disclosures under Topic 606.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Report on Form 10-Q and in reports we subsequently file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Forms 10‑K and 10‑Q and file or furnish on Form 8‑K, and in related comments by our management, include "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements include information concerning our liquidity and our possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategies. These statements often include words such as "believe," "expect," "project," "potential," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "seek," "will," "may," "would," "should," "could," "forecasts" or similar expressions. These statements are based on certain assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate in these circumstances. We believe these judgments are reasonable, but you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and our actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative, that may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on Forms 10‑K, 10‑Q and 8‑K.
Important factors that could affect our actual results and cause them to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements include, among others, those that may be disclosed from time to time in subsequent reports filed with the SEC, those described under "Item 1A—Risk Factors" included in our 2017 Form 10-K and the following, which were derived in part from the risks set forth in "Item 1A—Risk Factors" of our 2017 Form 10-K:

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, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," included in our 2017 Form 10‑K.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our senior management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2018, due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described in Item 9A of our 2017 Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our remediation efforts were ongoing during the three months ended March 31, 2018. To remediate our existing material weaknesses, we require additional time to complete the implementation of our remediation plans and demonstrate the effectiveness of our remediation efforts. The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2018 that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit
SEPARATION AGREEMENT
This Separation Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into by and among Alexandria Marren ("Executive"), Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings") and The Hertz Corporation (together with their subsidiaries and divisions, "Hertz," the "Company" or the "Companies"), on October 31, 2017. Reference is made to the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Severance Plan for Senior Executives, as amended (the "Severance Plan"), and all capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are as defined in the Severance Plan.
In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements in this Agreement, which Executive and the Companies agree constitute good and valuable consideration, the parties stipulate, and mutually agree, as follows:
1.Resignation from Offices and Directorships. Effective as of October 31, 2017 (the "Termination Date"), Executive resigns from her position as Executive Vice President, North America RAC Operations of the Companies, as well as from all director, officer or other positions she holds on behalf of the Companies (which for the avoidance of doubt, and in conformity with the definition of "Companies," shall include Holdings, The Hertz Corporation and all of their subsidiaries and divisions). Executive agrees to sign all appropriate documentation, if any, prepared by the Companies to facilitate these resignations; provided that Executive understands that such resignations are self-effectuating are effective on the Termination Date.
2.Employment Status/Separation. Executive and the Companies mutually agree that Executive's employment with the Companies shall cease effective as of the Termination Date, and that the cessation of Executive's employment shall be treated as a "Qualifying Termination" for purposes of the Severance Plan. The parties further agree that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither Executive nor the Companies 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.
3.Accrued Obligations and Vested Benefits. Executive is entitled to receive the following accrued obligations: (a) in satisfaction of the provisions of Section 4.01 of the Severance Plan, all Base Salary earned or accrued but not yet paid through the Termination Date, and payment for any earned but unused vacation days accrued through the Termination Date, which payments shall be made to Executive no later than the next regularly scheduled payroll date after the Termination Date; and (b) reimbursement for any and all business expenses incurred prior to the Termination Date, subject to the terms of the Company's reimbursement policy. In addition, the Companies acknowledge and agree that, without regard to this Agreement, Executive is vested in respect of (x) options to purchase 4,284 shares of Holdings common stock at $66.78 per share, which were granted under the Employee Stock Option Agreement, dated as of July 5, 2016, between Holdings and Executive (in respect of options originally granted on October 1, 2015) and (y) her vested account balance under The Hertz Corporation Income Savings Plan and The Hertz Corporation Supplemental Income Savings Plan.
4.Severance Benefits. Provided that Executive signs and does not timely revoke either this Agreement pursuant to Section 19 or the second release attached as Exhibit A (the "Second Release") pursuant to Section 5 thereof, and complies with the terms of this Agreement and the Second Release, the Company shall provide Executive with the following severance payments and benefits, in full satisfaction of all termination obligations the Companies may have to Executive:
(a)Severance Payment. In satisfaction of the provisions of Section 4.02(b) of the Severance Plan, the Company shall pay Executive an amount in cash equal to $900,000.00, to be paid to Executive in equal installments on Holdings' regular payroll cycles during the 18-month period commencing on the first payroll date following the Effective Date (as defined in the Second Release).
(b)2017 Prorated Bonus. In satisfaction of the provisions of Section 4.02(a) of the Severance Plan, Executive shall be eligible for the cash bonus that would have been payable to her under the Senior Executive Bonus Plan for 2017, prorated based on a fraction (i) the numerator of which is the number of days between January
1, 2017 and the Termination Date, and (ii) the denominator of which is 365. The actual amount of the bonus (if any) shall be determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board, and shall be paid at the same time as such bonuses are otherwise generally paid to the Company's executives and in any event no later than March 15, 2018.
(c)Outplacement. In satisfaction of the provisions of Section 4.02(c) of the Severance Plan, the Company shall pay Executive an amount equal in cash to $25,000.00 in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the Effective Date.
(d)Health Plan Coverage. In satisfaction of the provisions of Section 4.02(d) of the Severance Plan, the Company shall provide Executive and her eligible family members with continued medical, dental and accident insurance benefits under the applicable benefit programs of the Companies (the "health and welfare benefits"). If Executive makes timely application for such health and welfare benefits pursuant to Executive's benefit continuation rights under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA"), the Company shall pay the premiums for such coverage to the same extent paid by the Company immediately prior to the Termination Date for the first 18 months following the Termination Date, or the date on which Executive becomes eligible for comparable health and welfare benefits through a new employer, whichever is earlier. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and Executive agree that the premiums paid for the benefit of Executive by the Company hereunder shall be taxed as imputed income to Executive.
Equity-Based Awards. Executive acknowledges that all compensatory awards denominated in common stock of Holdings held by her as of the date hereof, excluding the options referenced in Section 3, shall be forfeited upon the Termination Date. The options referenced in Section 3 shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (a) the 90th day following the Termination Date (or, if later, the expiration of any blackout period in effect with respect to such options on such 90th day) and (b) any cancelation or termination in connection with a change in control, as provided in the applicable award agreement.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the consideration set forth or referenced in Section 3 and this Section 4 constitute satisfaction and accord for any and all compensation and benefits due and owing to her pursuant to any plan, agreement or other arrangements relating to her employment with the Companies and termination thereof; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Executive shall remain entitled to coverage under the Company's health and welfare plans in accordance with the terms thereof through the Termination Date. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, unless she enters into this Agreement, she would not otherwise be entitled to receive the consideration set forth in this Section 4.
5.Waiver and Release.
(a)In exchange for receiving the compensation and benefits described in Section 4 above, Executive does for herself and her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, hereby release, acquit, and forever discharge and hold harmless the Companies and each of their divisions, subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and their respective successors, assigns, officers, directors, shareholders holding more than 5% of Holdings' outstanding common stock as of the Termination Date (and such shareholders' affiliates), employees, benefit and retirement plans (as well as trustees and administrators thereof) and agents, past and present (the "Released Parties"), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, attorneys' fees, compensation, expenses, promises, covenants, and damages of whatever kind or nature, in law or in equity, which Executive has, had or could have asserted, known or unknown (the "Claims"), at common law or under any statute, rule, regulation, order or law, whether federal, state or local, or on any grounds whatsoever, including, without limitation, any and all claims for any additional severance pay, vacation pay, bonus or other compensation, including, but not limited to, under the Severance Plan, the offer letter, dated as of June 20, 2015, between the Companies and Executive (the "Offer Letter"), or any other applicable severance plan or agreement; any and all claims of discrimination or harassment based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, disability, handicap, age or other unlawful discrimination; any and all claims arising under Title VII of the Federal Civil Rights Act; the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act;
the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act; the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination; the Florida Civil Rights Act; or under any other state, federal, local or common law, with respect to any event, matter, claim, damage or injury arising out of her employment relationship with the Companies and/or the separation of such employment relationship, and/or with respect to any other claim, matter or event, from the beginning of the world to the date of Executive's execution of this Agreement. A further condition to Executive's receipt of the compensation and benefits described in Section 4 above is her execution and non revocation of the Second Release, which must be executed within 21 days following the Termination Date.
(b)Executive understands that nothing contained in this Agreement limits her ability to communicate with, or file a complaint or charge with, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Department of Justice ("DOJ") or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (collectively, "Governmental Agencies"), or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by Governmental Agencies, including providing documents or other information without notice to the Company; provided, however, that Executive may not disclose Company information that is protected by the attorney client privilege, except as expressly authorized by law. In the event any claim or suit is filed on Executive's behalf against any of the Released Parties by any person or entity, including, but not limited to, by any Governmental Agency, Executive waives any and all rights to recover monetary damages or injunctive relief in her favor; provided, however, that this Agreement does not limit Executive's right to receive an award from the SEC or DOJ for information provided to the SEC or DOJ.
6.Exceptions to Release. Executive does not waive or release (a) any Claims under applicable workers' compensation or unemployment laws; (b) any rights which cannot be waived as a matter of law; (c) the rights to enforce the terms of this Agreement; (d) any Claim for indemnification Executive may have under applicable laws, under the applicable constituent documents (including bylaws and certificates of incorporation) of any of the Companies, under any applicable insurance policy any of the Companies may maintain, or any under any other agreement she may have with any of the Companies, with respect to any liability, costs or expenses Executive incurs or has incurred as a director, officer or employee of any of the Companies; (e) any Claim Executive may have to obtain contribution as permitted by law in the event of entry of judgment against Executive as a result of any act or failure to act for which Executive and any of the Companies are jointly liable; (f) any Claim to her vested account balance under The Hertz Corporation Income Savings Plan or The Hertz Corporation Supplemental Income Savings Plan or to coverage under the Company's health and welfare plans in accordance with the terms thereof through the Termination Date; or (g) any Claim that arises after the date this Agreement is executed.
7.Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges that in the course of her employment with the Companies, Executive has acquired Confidential Information and that such information has been disclosed to Executive in confidence and for the Company's use only. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, on and after the Termination Date, Executive shall continue to be bound by the provisions of Article V of the Severance Plan and restrictive covenants set forth in the Offer Letter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the term " Competitive Business" (as defined in Section 5.02 of the Severance Plan) includes entities engaged in the ride-sharing business, including, without limitation, Uber Technologies Inc. and Lyft, Inc. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this this Agreement or any other agreement between Executive and the Companies shall prevent any communications by Executive with Governmental Agencies without notice to the Companies, 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 that may not be waived under applicable law that she may otherwise have.
8.Fiduciary Duties. Executive will retain her fiduciary responsibilities to the Companies 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.
9.Representations of Executive.
(a)Executive declares and represents that she has not filed or otherwise pursued any charges, complaints, lawsuits or claims of any nature against the Companies or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates or divisions, arising out of or relating to events occurring prior to and through the date of this Agreement, with any Governmental Agency or court with respect to any matter covered by this Agreement, and Executive has no knowledge of any fact or circumstance that she would reasonably expect to result in any such Claim against the Companies in respect of any of the foregoing. Except as provided in Section 5(b) or 6 of this Agreement, and subject to the provisions thereof, Executive agrees herein not to bring suit against the Companies for events occurring prior to the date of this Agreement and not to seek damages from the Companies by filing a claim or charge with any Governmental Agency or court.
(b)Executive further declares and represents that through the Termination Date she has not: (i) engaged in any conduct that constitutes willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct with respect to her employment duties with the Companies which has resulted or will result in material economic harm to Holdings; (ii) knowingly violated the Hertz Standards of Business Conduct or any similar policy; (iii) facilitated or engaged in, and has no knowledge of, any financial or accounting improprieties or irregularities of either of the Companies; or (iv) knowingly made any incorrect or false statements in any of her ce1tifications relating to filings of the Companies required under applicable securities laws or management representation letters, and has no knowledge of any incorrect or false statements in any of the Companies' filings required under applicable securities laws; in either of the case of clause (iii) or (iv) of this Section 9(b), except with respect to any information that has been provided through the Termination Date by a third-party auditor in an oral or written report to both Executive and the Board (or any committee thereof). Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the Companies are entering into this Agreement in reliance on the representations contained in this Section 9(b), which representations constitute terms of this Agreement.
(c)Executive further declares and represents that the representations set forth in the Offer Letter remain accurate and that she has complied (and, with respect to all covenants that by their te1ms apply through or following her Termination Date, will continue to comply) with all covenants set forth therein.
10.Future Employment. Executive agrees that she will not at any time in the future seek employment with Hertz and waives any right that may accrue to her from any application for employment that she may make notwithstanding this provision.
11.Non-Compete. Executive expressly agrees that for eighteen (18) months following her execution of this Agreement (the "Restriction Period"), she 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 rental or comparable company that competes with the business, or for the customer base, of Hertz. This paragraph 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 date of this Agreement) 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).
12.Non-Solicitation. Executive expressly agrees that for twelve (12) months following her execution of this Agreement she shall not directly or indirectly employ or seek to employ, or solicit or contact or cause others to solicit or contact with a view to engage or employ, any person who is or was a managerial level employee of any of the Companies as of the date of this Agreement, or at any time during the twelve (12)-month period preceding such date. This paragraph of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be violated solely by placing an advertisement or other general solicitation or serving as a reference
13.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 Companies, and that any violation of any such restriction will result in irreparable injury to the applicable Companies. Executive represents and agrees that her experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in the "Non-Compete" and "Non-Solicitation" provisions of this Agreement will not prevent her 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 provisions 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 provisions to the maximum benefit of the Companies as permitted by law, and, as so modified, said provision shall then be enforceable. The period of time during which the provisions of 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.
14.Nondisparagement/References. Executive agrees not to make negative comments or otherwise disparage the Companies or their respective officers, directors, other employees holding the titles of Senior Vice President who reported directly to Executive or the titles of Executive Vice President or higher, or shareholders holding more than 5% of Holdings' outstanding common stock as of the Termination Date (and such shareholders' affiliates) in any manner reasonably likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation. Executive shall not assist, encourage, discuss, cooperate, incite, or otherwise confer with or aid any others in discrediting the Companies or the related persons referenced in this Section 14 or in pursuit of a claim or other action against the other, except as required by law. The Companies agree that they shall not make any statement that disparages, impugns, or in any way reflects adversely upon employee or employee's reputation in any internal or external communication authorized by the Companies, or in response to any reference request received by the Companies. Executive shall direct any employment inquiries or requests for references to General Counsel, The Hertz Corporation, 8501 Williams Road, Estero, Florida 33928. Nothing contained in this Section 14 shall prevent any party from (a) making truthful statements in any judicial, arbitration, governmental, or other appropriate forum for adjudication of disputes between the parties or in any response or disclosure by any party compelled by legal process or required by applicable law or (b) exercising any legally protected whistleblower rights (including pursuant to Rule 21F under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
15.Cooperation. During the 18-month period following the Termination Date, Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Companies 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 the Companies which relate to events or occurrences that occurred while Executive was employed by the Companies and of which Executive has relevant knowledge. 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 personnel of the Companies, being available for interviews, depositions and/or to act as a witness on behalf of the Company, if reasonably requested, and at the Board's reasonable request responding to any inquiries about the particular matter. Executive further agrees to reasonably and truthfully cooperate with the Company 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 with the Company and of which Executive has relevant knowledge. The Companies shall promptly pay (or promptly reimburse) Executive for any and all reasonable out of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive in connection with such cooperation.
16.Miscellaneous.
(a)Denial of Wrongdoing. The parties understand and agree that this Agreement shall not be considered an admission of liability or wrongdoing by any party, and that the parties deny any liability, and nothing in this Agreement can or shall be used, by or against any party with respect to claims, defenses or issues in any litigation or proceeding, except to enforce this Agreement itself. The Companies deny committing any wrongdoing or violating any legal duty with respect to Executive's employment or the termination of her employment.
(b)Entire Agreement. Executive further declares and represents that no promise, inducement, or agreement not herein expressed or referred to has been made to her. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, this instrument (including the exhibits hereto) constitutes the entire agreement between Executive and the Companies and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, written or oral, including, without limitation the Severance Plan and the Offer Letter. This Agreement may not be changed unless the change is in writing and signed by Executive and an authorized representative of each of the Companies. Parol evidence will be inadmissible to show agreement by and between the patties to any term or condition contrary to or in addition to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which together constitute one and the same agreement, whether delivered in person, by mail, by e-mail or by facsimile.
(c)Severability. 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.
(d)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Companies and Executive and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Executive may not assign any of her rights or obligations hereunder. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to·all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform all of the Company's obligations set forth in this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession or assign had taken place. In the event of the death of Executive prior to the payment of all amounts by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall make any remaining payments to Executive's estate in a single lump sum payment within 60 days following her death.
(e)Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 10.17 of the Severance Plan, this Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws rules thereof to the extent that the application of the law of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of the city of the Company's headquarters and the Federal courts of the United States of America, in each case located in (or located nearest to) the City of the Company's headquarters, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Each party hereby waives and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation and enforcement hereof, or any such document or in respect of any such transaction, that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereby consents to and grants any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of any such dispute and agrees that the mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 16(g) or in such other manner as may be permitted by law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Sections 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of appropriate jurisdiction to remedy any such breach or threatened breach, and damages would be inadequate and insufficient. The existence of this right to injunctive and other equitable relief shall not limit any other rights or remedies that the Company may have at law or in equity including, without limitation, the right to monetary, compensatory and punitive damages.
(f)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 ORV ALIDITY 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 Section 16(f).
(g)Notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered under this Agreement shall be (i) in writing, (ii) delivered personally by courier service or certified or registered mail, first-class postage prepaid and return receipt requested, (iii) deemed to have been received on the date of delivery or on the third business day after the mailing thereof, and (iv) addressed as follows (or to such other address as the party entitled to notice shall hereafter designate in accordance with the terms hereof):
(A)if to either of the Companies, to them at:

with a copy to:
Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz

New York, New York 10019
Attention: David A. Katz, Esq.
Electronic mail: DAKatz@WLRK.com
(B)if to Executive, to her at her last known home address as shown on the records of the Company.
(h)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
17.Tax Matters.
(a)Withholding. All payments and benefits provided hereunder shall be subject to tax withholdings required by applicable law and other standard payroll deductions.
(b)Code Section 409A.
(i)Compliance. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder, and all notices, rulings and other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service interpreting the same (collectively, "Section 409A") so as to avoid the additional tax and penalty interest provisions contained therein and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted under Section 409A, this Agreement shall be interpreted to maintain exemption from or compliance with its requirements. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Executive by Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A, except for any such additional taxes and interest or damages that result from the Company's failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or those of any plan or award agreement referred to herein.
(ii)Termination as Separation from Service. The termination of Executive's employment on the Termination Date constitutes a "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A for purposes of any provision of this Agreement or other arrangement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits subject to Section 409A upon or following a "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A, and for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a "resignation from employment," "termination," "terminate," "termination of employment" or like terms shall also refer to Executive's "separation from service" on the Termination Date.
(iii)Payments for Reimbursements, In-Kind Benefits. All reimbursements for costs and expenses under this Agreement shall be paid in no event later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurs such expense. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A, (A) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (B) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided, however, that the foregoing clause (B) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Internal Revenue Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect.
