PART IFINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM l. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 26, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Note 1Background and Liquidity
Background
Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., or "Hertz Holdings," is our top-level holding company. The Hertz Corporation, or "Hertz," is our primary operating company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Hertz Investors, Inc., which is wholly-owned by Hertz Holdings. "We," "us" and "our" mean Hertz Holdings and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hertz.
We are a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the car and truck rental and leasing business since 1918 and the equipment rental business since 1965. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967. Ford Motor Company, or "Ford," acquired an ownership interest in Hertz in 1987. Prior to this, Hertz was a subsidiary of UAL Corporation (formerly Allegis Corporation), which acquired Hertz's outstanding capital stock from RCA Corporation in 1985. Hertz Holdings was incorporated in Delaware in 2005 and had no operations prior to the Acquisition (as defined below).
On
December 21, 2005, investment funds associated with or designated by:
or collectively the "Sponsors," acquired all of Hertz's common stock from Ford Holdings LLC. We refer to the acquisition of all of Hertz's common stock by the Sponsors as the "Acquisition." Following our initial public offering in November 2006 and subsequent offerings in June 2007, May 2009 and June 2009, the Sponsors currently own approximately 51% of the common stock of Hertz Holdings.
In January 2009, Bank of America Corporation, or "Bank of America," acquired Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., the parent company of MLGPE. Accordingly, Bank of America is now an indirect beneficial owner of our common stock held by MLGPE and certain of its affiliates.
Liquidity
Our primary liquidity needs include servicing of corporate and fleet related debt, the payment of operating expenses and purchases of rental vehicles and equipment to be used in our operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating revenue, cash received on the disposal of vehicles and equipment, borrowings under our asset-backed borrowing arrangements and our revolving credit facilities.
As of September 30, 2010, we had $12,046.9 million of total indebtedness outstanding. Accordingly, 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 and capital expenditures.
Our liquidity as of September 30, 2010 consisted of cash and cash equivalents, unused commitments under our Senior ABL Facility and unused commitments under our fleet financing facilities. For a description of these amounts, see Note 8Debt.
Based on our current availability under our various credit facilities and our business plan, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our debt maturities over the next twelve months. See Note 8Debt.
6
HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Unaudited
For a description of 2010 financing activities, see Note 8Debt.
As of September 30, 2010, we have approximately $217.7 million of remaining international fleet debt outstanding that matures in December 2010. We are currently in discussions regarding our remaining refinancing options, and based on these discussions and our ability to access the capital markets, we expect to refinance the remaining debt maturing in December 2010 on or prior to maturity. In the event financing is not available or is not available on terms we deem acceptable, we would expect to utilize our corporate liquidity (availability under corporate debt facilities plus unrestricted cash) to repay these obligations.
The agreements governing our corporate indebtedness require us to comply with two key covenants based on a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio. Our failure to comply with the obligations contained in any agreements governing our indebtedness could result in an event of default under the applicable instrument, which could result in the related debt becoming immediately due and payable and could further result in a cross default or cross acceleration of our debt issued under other instruments. As of September 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.
MBIA Insurance Corporation, or "MBIA," and Ambac Assurance Corporation, or "Ambac," provide credit enhancements in the form of financial guarantees for our Series 2005-1 and 2005-2 Rental Car Asset-Backed Notes, or the "2005 Notes," with each providing guarantees for approximately half of the $875.0 million in principal amount of the 2005 Notes that was outstanding as of September 30, 2010, all of which matures during 2010.
An event of bankruptcy with respect to MBIA or Ambac between now and the maturities of the 2005 Notes in 2010 would result in an amortization event under the portion of the 2005 Notes guaranteed by the affected insurer. In addition, if an amortization event continues for 30 days or longer, the noteholders of the affected series of notes would have the right to require liquidation of a portion of the fleet sufficient to repay such notes, provided that the exercise of the right was exercised by a majority of the affected noteholders. Ambac has publicly stated that it has insufficient capital to finance its debt service and operating expense requirements beyond the second quarter of 2011 and may need to seek bankruptcy protection. Accordingly, if a bankruptcy of MBIA or Ambac were to occur prior to the 2005 Notes maturing, we expect that we would use our corporate liquidity and the borrowings under or proceeds from these recent financings to pay down the amounts owed under the affected series of 2005 Notes. The Series 2009-1 Notes, Series 2009-2 Notes, Series 2009-2 Class B Notes or the Series 2010-1 Notes are not guaranteed.
Note 2Basis of Presentation
The significant accounting policies summarized in Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or "SEC," on February 26, 2010 and March 1, 2010, respectively, or collectively known as our "Annual Report," have been followed in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or "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, 2009 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current reporting.
Note 3Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance, which contains amendments to Accounting Standards Codification 810, "Consolidation," relating to how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity's purpose and design and a company's ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. These provisions became effective for us on January 1, 2010, but did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Note 4Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
In our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we net cash flows from revolving borrowings in the line item "Proceeds (payments) under the revolving lines of credit, net." The contractual maturities of such borrowings may exceed 90 days in certain cases.
Restricted cash and cash equivalents includes cash and cash equivalents that are not readily available for our normal disbursements. Restricted cash and cash equivalents are restricted for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities, for our Like-Kind Exchange Program, or "LKE Program," and to satisfy certain of our self-insurance regulatory reserve requirements. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the portion of total restricted cash and cash equivalents that was associated with our Fleet Debt facilities was $663.4 million and $295.0 million, respectively. The increase in restricted cash associated with our Fleet Debt of $368.4 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, was primarily related to the timing of purchases and sales of revenue earning vehicles.

Amortization of other intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was approximately $16.3 million and $17.0 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was approximately $49.0 million and $50.1 million, respectively. Based on our amortizable intangible assets as of September 30, 2010, we expect amortization expense to be approximately $16.2 million for the remainder of 2010 and range from $58.2 million to $64.5 million for each of the next five fiscal years.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we added eight car rental locations by acquiring former franchisees in our domestic car rental operations and four equipment rental locations related to external acquisitions done within our equipment rental operations. Total intangible assets acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $6.6 million, of which $4.0 million and $2.6 million was allocated to amortizable intangible assets and indefinite-lived intangible assets,

respectively. Each of these transactions has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with GAAP and operating results of the acquired locations from the dates of acquisition are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Note 6Taxes on Income
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was (1.9)% and (3.0)%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 9.0% and 19.2%, respectively. The benefit for taxes on income was $3.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a provision for taxes on income of $6.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2009. The change was primarily due to the mix of income before income taxes in various taxing jurisdictions and discrete benefits recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. The provision for taxes on income was $0.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a benefit for taxes on income of $19.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The year-over-year increase in tax expense was primarily due to a lower loss before income taxes and a reduction in discrete benefits in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

The adjustment of depreciation upon disposal of revenue earning equipment for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, included net losses of $27.6 million and $24.2 million, respectively, on the disposal of vehicles used in our car rental operations and net losses of $10.4 million and $40.3 million, respectively, on the disposal of industrial and construction equipment used in our equipment rental operations.

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. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, depreciation rates being used to compute the provision for depreciation of revenue earning equipment were adjusted on certain vehicles in our car rental operations to reflect changes in the estimated residual values to be realized when revenue earning equipment is sold. These depreciation rate changes resulted in net increases of $5.7 million and $16.6 million in depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, depreciation rate changes in our equipment rental operations resulted in net increases of $2.7 million in depreciation expense.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, our worldwide car rental operations sold approximately 41,600 and 45,200 non-program cars, respectively, an 8.0% year-over-year decrease primarily due to an increase in rental demand which required us to maintain our fleet size. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, our worldwide car rental operations sold approximately 126,900 and 113,000 non-program cars, respectively, a 12.3% year-over-year increase primarily due to a higher average fleet size.

The aggregate amounts of maturities of debt for each of the twelve-month periods ending September 30 (in millions of dollars) are as follows: 2011, $4,191.0 (including $3,190.2 of other short-term borrowings); 2012, $179.6; 2013, $1,969.3; 2014, $2,749.6; 2015, $1,413.5; after 2015, $1,674.1.
Our short-term borrowings of $3,190.2 million as of September 30, 2010 include, among other items, the amounts outstanding under our International ABS Fleet Financing Facility, European Securitization, Fleet Financing Facility, Brazilian Fleet Financing Facility, Canadian Fleet Financing Facility, Capitalized Leases and European Credit Facility. These amounts are considered short-term in nature since they have maturity dates of three months or less; however these facilities are revolving in nature and do not expire at the time of the short-term debt maturity except for our International ABS Fleet Financing Facility and Brazilian Fleet Financing Facility which mature in December 2010.
As of September 30, 2010, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $678.0 million. Of this amount, $423.5 million has been issued for the benefit of certain of our noteholders of our various asset-backed securities, or "ABS," facilities, or our "ABS Program," ($200.0 million of which was issued by Ford and $223.5 million of which was issued under the Senior Credit Facilities) and the remainder is primarily to support self-insurance programs (including insurance policies with respect to which we have indemnified the policy issuers for any losses) in the United States, Canada and Europe and to support airport concession obligations in the United States, Canada and Europe. In November 2010, the "Ford" letter of credit by its terms will expire in conjunction with the maturity of the 2005 Notes.
U.S. Fleet Debt
In June 2010, Hertz Vehicle Financing, LLC, or "HVF," our wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $184.3 million in aggregate principal amount of 3-year and 5-year Subordinated Series 2009-2 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, Class B, or the "Series 2009-2 Class B Notes." The 3-year notes carry a 4.94% coupon (5.00% yield at issuance) and the 5-year notes carry a 5.93% coupon (6.01% yield at issuance) with expected final maturities in 2013 and 2015, respectively. The net proceeds of the offering were used to purchase vehicles under our ABS Program, used to pay other ABS indebtedness or distributed to Hertz and used for general corporate purposes. The Series 2009-2 Class B Notes are included in U.S. Fleet Debt. As of September 30, 2010, $184.3 million in borrowings were outstanding under the Series 2009-2 Class B Notes.
Euro Notes and European Credit Facility
In June 2010, Hertz issued EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $543.4 million as of September 30, 2010) aggregate principal amount of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2015, or the "Euro Notes," and entered into a EUR 220 million (the equivalent of $298.9 million) revolving credit facility that matures in 2013, or the "European Credit Facility." The net proceeds of the Euro Notes and European Credit Facility were used to refinance our International Fleet Debt and Belgian Fleet Financing Facility, both of which were due to mature in December 2010, and the excess was used for general corporate purposes. The Euro Notes and the European Credit Facility are the primary fleet financing for our rental car operations in Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland. The Euro Notes and the European Credit Facility are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Hertz and certain U.S. subsidiaries of Hertz and on a senior secured basis by certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of Hertz.

Third Quarter Events
In July 2010, Hertz entered into a EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $543.4 million as of September 30, 2010) asset-backed securitization facility, or "European Securitization," which matures in 2012, the proceeds of which were used to refinance the portion of our existing International ABS Fleet Financing Facility relating to France and the Netherlands, which was due to mature in December 2010.
In addition, in July 2010, HVF issued approximately $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 3-year, 5-year and 7-year Series 2010-1 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, or the "Series 2010-1 Notes." The 3-year, 5-year and 7-year notes have expected final maturities in 2014, 2016 and 2018, respectively. The net proceeds of the offering were used to purchase vehicles under the ABS Program of HVF, to pay other ABS indebtedness or distributed to Hertz and used for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2010, $749.6 million in borrowings were outstanding under the Series 2010-1 Notes. The Series 2010-1 Notes are included as part of our U.S. Fleet Debt.
In September 2010, Hertz entered into amendments to its Senior Term Facility and Senior ABL Facility. The amendments provide, among other things, for additional capacity under the covenants in the Senior Term Facility and Senior ABL Facility to incur refinancing and acquisition indebtedness. The amendment to the Senior ABL Facility increases the overall letter of credit sublimit and allows for Australian dollar denominated letters of credit.
In addition, in September 2010, Hertz issued $700 million aggregate principal amount of 7.5% Senior Notes due 2018, or "2010 Senior Notes." The net proceeds of the offerings were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of consolidated indebtedness.
Pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the issuance of the 2010 Senior Notes, Hertz has agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to permit either the exchange of the 2010 Senior Notes for registered notes having terms substantially identical to the 2010 Senior Notes or, in the alternative, the registered resale of the 2010 Senior Notes. Hertz's failure to meet its obligations under the registration rights agreement, including by failing to have the registration statement become or declared effective by September 30, 2011 or failing to complete the exchange offer by October 30, 2011, will result in Hertz incurring special interest on the 2010 Senior Notes at a per annum rate of 0.25% for the first 90 days of any period where a default has occurred and is continuing, which rate will be increased by an additional 0.25% during each subsequent 90 day period, up to a maximum of 0.50%. We do not believe the special interest obligation is probable, and as such, we have not recorded any amounts with respect to this registration payment arrangement.
Guarantees and Security
There have been no material changes to the guarantees and security provisions of the debt instruments and credit facilities under which our indebtedness as of September 30, 2010 has been issued from the terms as disclosed in our Annual Report, except as described above.
Covenants
Certain of our debt instruments and credit facilities 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 other indebtedness, make dividends and other restricted payments, create liens, make investments, make acquisitions, engage in mergers, change the nature of their business, make capital expenditures, or engage in certain transactions with

affiliates. Some of these agreements also require the maintenance of certain financial covenants. As of September 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.
As of September 30, 2010, we had an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $1,348.4 million pursuant to our Senior Term Facility and no amounts outstanding in our Senior ABL Facility. As of September 30, 2010, Hertz was required under the Senior Term Facility to have a consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 5.25:1 and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio of not less than 2.00:1. In addition, under our Senior ABL Facility, if there was less than $200.0 million of available borrowing capacity under that facility as of September 30, 2010, Hertz was required to have a consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 5.25:1 and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1:1 for the quarter then ended. Under the Senior Term Facility, as of September 30, 2010, we had a consolidated leverage ratio of 4.20:1 and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio of 3.57:1. Since we had maintained sufficient borrowing capacity under our Senior ABL Facility as of September 30, 2010, and expect to maintain such capacity in the future, the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was not deemed relevant for presentation. For further information on the terms of our senior credit facilities, see Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

As of September 30, 2010, the Senior Term Facility had approximately $11.4 million available under the letter of credit facility and the Senior ABL Facility had $406.2 million available under the letter of credit facility sublimit.
Our liquidity as of September 30, 2010 was $3,105.2 million, which consisted of $1,483.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $851.7 million of unused commitments under our Senior ABL Facility and $770.2 million of unused commitments under our fleet financing facilities. Taking into consideration the borrowing base limitations in our Senior ABL Facility and in our Fleet Debt, the amount that we had available for immediate use as of September 30, 2010 under our Senior ABL Facility was $851.7 million and we had $162.3 million of over-enhancement that was available under our Fleet Debt. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2010, we had $2,497.3 million ($1,483.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, $851.7 million available under our Senior ABL Facility and $162.3 million available under our various Fleet Debt facilities) in liquidity that was available for our immediate use. Future availability of borrowings under these facilities will depend on borrowing base requirements and other factors, many of which are outside our control.
Also, substantially all of our revenue earning equipment and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities, or are subject to liens in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities. Substantially all our other assets in the United States are also subject to liens in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities. None of these assets would be available to satisfy the claims of our general creditors if we failed to perform our obligations to such creditors.
Some of these special purpose entities are consolidated variable interest entities, of which Hertz is the primary beneficiary, whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend in various currencies subject to borrowing bases comprised of rental vehicles and related assets of certain of Hertz International, Ltd.'s subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, our International Fleet Financing No. 1 B.V., International Fleet Financing No. 2 B.V., Hertz Fleet Limited and HA Funding Pty, Ltd. variable interest entities had total assets primarily comprised of revenue earning equipment of $461.6 million and $367.6 million, respectively, and total liabilities primarily comprised of debt of $569.2 million and $710.3 million, respectively. For further information on the terms of our debt, see Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
Accrued Interest
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, accrued interest was $88.4 million and $120.9 million, respectively, which is reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet in "Accrued liabilities."

Our policy for funded plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws, regulations and union agreements. From time to time we make contributions beyond those legally required. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we contributed to and made benefit payments of $11.2 million and $57.8 million, respectively, to our worldwide pension plans, including discretionary contributions of $2.3 million and $5.5 million, respectively, to our U.K. defined benefit pension plan and benefit payments made through unfunded plans. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we contributed to and made benefit payments of $11.7 million and $28.9 million, respectively, to our funded worldwide plans. Of the contributions to worldwide plans, we contributed $6.5 million to the U.S. defined benefit plans during the three months ended September 30, 2009. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we made discretionary contributions of $1.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively, to our U.K. defined benefit pension plan. Based upon the significant decline in asset values in 2008, which were in line with the overall market declines, we have and will continue to make cash contributions in 2010 and possibly in future years. We expect to contribute up to $54.1 million to our U.S. pension plan in the full year of 2010. The level of 2010 and future contributions will vary, and is dependent on a number of factors including actual and projected investment returns, interest rate fluctuations, plan demographics, funding regulations and the results of the final actuarial valuation.

We participate in various "multiemployer" pension plans administered by labor unions representing some of our employees. We make periodic contributions to these plans to allow them to meet their pension benefit obligations to their participants. In the event that we withdraw from participation in one of these plans, then applicable law could require us to make an additional lump-sum contribution to the plan, and we would have to reflect that as an expense in our consolidated statement of operations and as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our withdrawal liability for any multiemployer plan would depend on the extent of the plan's funding of vested benefits. In the ordinary course of our renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements with labor unions that maintain these plans, we could decide to discontinue participation in a plan, and in that event, we could face a withdrawal liability. Some multiemployer plans, including one in which we participate, are reported to have significant underfunded liabilities. Such underfunding could increase the size of our potential withdrawal liability.
Note 10Stock-Based Compensation
In March 2010, we granted 527,574 Restricted Stock Units, or "RSUs," to certain executives and employees at fair values ranging from $9.70 to $9.99 and 800,613 Performance Stock Units, or "PSUs," at a fair value of $9.70 under the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the "Omnibus Plan." In May 2010, we granted 182,606 RSUs to certain employees at fair values ranging from $11.87 to $12.38 under the Omnibus Plan. In August 2010, we granted 33,083 RSUs to certain employees at a fair value of $9.08.
In March 2010, we granted options to acquire 3,208,155 shares of our common stock to certain executives and employees at exercise prices ranging from $9.70 to $9.99. In May 2010, we granted options to acquire 29,229 shares of our common stock to certain employees at exercise prices ranging from $11.87 to $12.38, and in August, we granted options to acquire 54,534 shares of our common stock to certain employees at an exercise price of $9.08, under the Omnibus Plan.
A summary of the total compensation expense and associated income tax benefits recognized under our Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan and Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.

Plans and the Omnibus Plan, including costs related to modifying the exercise prices of certain option grants in order to preserve the intrinsic value of the options, consistent with applicable tax law, to reflect special cash dividends of $4.32 per share paid on June 30, 2006 and $1.12 per share paid on November 21, 2006. These remaining costs are expected to be recognized over the remaining 1.4 years, on a weighted average basis, of the requisite service period that began on the grant dates.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized compensation cost of approximately $0.1 million ($0.1 million, net of tax) and $0.4 million ($0.3 million, net of tax), respectively, for the amount of the discount on the stock purchased by our employees under the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or "ESPP." For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized compensation cost of approximately $0.1 million ($0.1 million, net of tax) and $0.3 million ($0.2 million, net of tax), respectively, for the amount of the discount on the stock purchased by our employees under the ESPP.
Note 11Segment Information
Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, products, services, customers, and delivery methods. We have identified two reportable segments: rental of cars and light trucks, or "car rental," and rental of industrial, construction and material handling equipment, or "equipment rental." Other reconciling items includes general corporate assets and expenses, certain interest expense (including net interest on corporate debt), as well as other business activities such as our third-party claim management services.
Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is the measure utilized by management in making decisions about allocating resources to segments and measuring their performance. We believe this measure best reflects the financial results from ongoing operations. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is calculated as income (loss) before income taxes plus other reconciling items, non-cash purchase accounting charges, non-cash debt charges and certain one-time charges and non-operational items. The contribution of our reportable segments to revenues and adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and the

Note 13Restructuring
As part of our ongoing effort to implement our strategy of reducing operating costs, we have evaluated our workforce and operations and made adjustments, including headcount reductions and business process re-engineering resulting in optimized work flow at rental locations and maintenance facilities as well as streamlined our back-office operations and evaluated potential outsourcing opportunities.

we made adjustments to our workforce and operations, we incurred incremental expenses that delay the benefit of a more efficient workforce and operating structure, but we believe that increased operating efficiency and reduced costs associated with the operation of our business are important to our long-term competitiveness.
For further information on actions taken in 2009, see Note 11 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our equipment rental business incurred charges for losses on available for sale equipment and the disposal of surplus equipment and recognition of future facility lease obligations related to branch closures in North America.

Note 14Financial Instruments
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents
Fair value approximates the amount indicated on the balance sheet at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Money market accounts, whose fair value at September 30, 2010, is measured using Level 1 inputs, totaling $858.8 million and $572.6 million are included in "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Restricted cash and cash equivalents," respectively. Money market accounts, whose fair value at December 31, 2009, is measured using Level 1 inputs, totaling $106.8 million and $294.4 million are included in "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Restricted cash and cash equivalents," respectively. Level 1 inputs are observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.
Debt
For borrowings with an initial maturity of 93 days or less, fair value approximates carrying value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. For all other debt, fair value is estimated based on quoted market rates as well as borrowing rates currently available to us for loans with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2 inputs). The aggregate fair value of all debt at September 30, 2010 was $12,468.3 million, compared to its aggregate carrying value of $12,177.1 million. The aggregate fair value of all debt at December 31, 2009 approximated $10,795.7 million, compared to its aggregate carrying value of $10,530.4 million.

In connection with the Acquisition and the issuance of $3,550.0 million of floating rate U.S. Fleet Debt, our subsidiary HVF entered into certain interest rate swap agreements, or the "HVF Swaps," effective December 21, 2005, which qualify as cash flow hedging instruments in accordance with GAAP. These agreements mature at various terms, in connection with the scheduled maturity of the associated debt obligations, through November 2010. Under these agreements, until February 2009, HVF was paying monthly interest at a fixed rate of 4.5% per annum in exchange for monthly interest at one-month LIBOR, effectively transforming the floating rate U.S. Fleet Debt to fixed rate obligations. In March 2009, HVF made a cash payment to have the fixed rate on these swaps reset to the then current market rates of 0.872% and 1.25% for the swaps that matured in February 2010 and that will mature in November 2010, respectively. $80.4 million of this payment was made to an affiliate of MLGPE which is a counterparty to the HVF Swaps. Concurrently with this payment, the hedging relationship was de-designated and the amount remaining in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" associated with this cash flow hedging relationship was frozen and is being amortized into "Interest expense" over the respective terms of the associated debt in accordance with GAAP. We expect to amortize approximately $12.0 million from "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" into "Interest expense" over the next two months. Additionally, a new hedging relationship was designated between the HVF Swaps, which also qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting in accordance with GAAP. Both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, we measure ineffectiveness by comparing the fair value of the HVF Swaps and the fair value of hypothetical swaps, with similar terms, using the Hypothetical Method in accordance with GAAP. The hypothetical swaps represent a perfect hedge of the variability in interest payments associated with the U.S. Fleet Debt. Subsequent to the resetting of the swaps at current market rates, we anticipate that there will be no ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship because the critical terms of the HVF Swaps match the terms of the hypothetical swaps.
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the balance reflected in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)," relating to the HVF Swaps, including the amount frozen due to the designation of the previous cash flow hedging relationship, was a loss of $7.8 million (net of tax of $5.0 million) and a loss of $49.7 million (net of tax of $31.8 million), respectively. The fair values of the HVF Swaps were calculated using the income approach and applying observable market data (i.e. the 1-month LIBOR yield curve and credit default swap spreads).
In connection with the entrance into the HVF Swaps, Hertz entered into seven differential interest rate swap agreements, or the "differential swaps." These differential swaps were required to be put in place to protect the counterparties to the HVF Swaps in the event of an "amortization event" under the asset-

backed notes agreements. An "event of bankruptcy" (as defined in the ABS Base Indenture) with respect to MBIA or Ambac would constitute an "amortization event" under the portion of the U.S. Fleet Debt facilities guaranteed by the affected insurer. In the event of an "amortization event," the amount by which the principal balance on the floating rate portion of the U.S. Fleet Debt is reduced, exclusive of the originally scheduled amortization, becomes the notional amount of the differential swaps and is transferred to Hertz. There was no payment associated with these differential swaps and their notional amounts are and will continue to be zero unless (1) there is an amortization event, which causes the amortization of the loan balance, or (2) the debt is prepaid.
On September 18, 2009, HVF completed the sale of the Series 2009-1 Notes. In order to satisfy rating agency requirements related to its bankruptcy-remote status, HVF purchased an interest rate cap, for $11.7 million, with a maximum notional amount equal to the Series 2009-1 Notes maximum principal amount of $2.1 billion with a strike rate of 5% and a term until January 25, 2013. Additionally, Hertz sold a 5% interest rate cap, for $6.5 million, with a notional amount equal to 33.3% of the notional amount of the HVF interest rate cap through January 2012, and then subsequently with a matching notional amount to the HVF interest rate cap through its maturity date of January 25, 2013. The fair value of these interest rate caps was calculated using a discounted cash flow method and applying observable market data (i.e. the 1-month LIBOR yield curve and credit default swap spreads). Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these interest rate caps are included in our results of operations in the periods incurred.
We purchase unleaded gasoline and diesel fuel at prevailing market rates. In January 2009, we began a program to manage our exposure to changes in fuel prices through the use of derivative commodity instruments. We currently have in place swaps to cover a portion of our fuel price exposure through June 2011. We presently hedge a portion of our overall unleaded gasoline and diesel fuel purchases with commodity swaps and have contracts in place that settle on a monthly basis. As of September 30, 2010, our outstanding commodity instruments for unleaded gasoline and diesel fuel totaled approximately 12.3 million gallons and 0.7 million gallons, respectively. The fair value of these commodity instruments was calculated using a discounted cash flow method and applying observable market data (i.e., NYMEX RBOB Gasoline and U.S. Department of Energy surveys, etc.). Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these commodity instruments are included in our results of operations in the periods incurred.
We manage our foreign currency risk primarily by incurring, to the extent practicable, operating and financing expenses in the local currency in the countries in which we operate, including making fleet and equipment purchases and borrowing for working capital needs. Also, we have purchased foreign exchange options to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates for selected marketing programs. The effect of exchange rate changes on these financial instruments would not materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Our risks with respect to foreign exchange options are limited to the premium paid for the right to exercise the option and the future performance of the option's counterparty. Premiums paid for options outstanding as of September 30, 2010, were approximately $0.2 million. We limit counterparties to the transactions to financial institutions that have strong credit ratings. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the total notional amount of these foreign exchange options was $4.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2010, these foreign exchange options mature through January 2012. The fair value of the foreign exchange options was calculated using a discounted cash flow method and applying observable market data (i.e. foreign currency exchange rates). Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these options are included in our results of operations in the periods incurred.

We also manage exposure to fluctuations in currency risk on intercompany loans we make to certain of our subsidiaries by entering into foreign currency forward contracts at the time of the loans which are intended to offset the impact of foreign currency movements on the underlying intercompany loan obligations. As of September 30, 2010, the total notional amount of these forward contracts was $1,391.4 million, maturing within four months. The fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts was calculated based on foreign currency forward exchange rates.
On October 1, 2006, we designated our Senior Euro Notes as an effective net investment hedge of our Euro-denominated net investment in our international operations. As a result of this net investment hedge designation, as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, losses of $8.6 million (net of tax of $7.9 million) and $19.2 million (net of tax of $14.7 million), respectively, attributable to the translation of our Senior Euro Notes into the U.S. dollar are recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)."

Note 16Commitments and Contingencies
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the following guarantees (including indemnification commitments) were issued and outstanding:
Indemnification Obligations
In the ordinary course of business, we execute 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. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third-party claim. We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and have accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable. The types of indemnification obligations for which payments are possible include the following:
Sponsors; Directors
Hertz has entered into customary indemnification agreements with Hertz Holdings, the Sponsors and our stockholders affiliated with the Sponsors, pursuant to which Hertz Holdings and Hertz will indemnify the Sponsors, our stockholders affiliated with the Sponsors 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 the Sponsors and certain other claims and liabilities, including liabilities arising out of financing arrangements or securities offerings. We also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors. We do not believe that these indemnifications are reasonably likely to have a material impact on us.
Environmental
We have indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which we may be held responsible could be substantial. The probable expenses that we expect to incur for such matters have been accrued, and those expenses are reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the aggregate amounts accrued for environmental liabilities, including liability for environmental indemnities, reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet in "Accrued liabilities" were $1.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The accrual generally represents the estimated cost to study potential environmental issues at sites deemed to require investigation or clean-up activities, and the estimated cost to implement remediation actions, including on-going maintenance, as required. Cost estimates are developed by site. Initial cost estimates are based on historical experience at similar sites and are refined over time on the basis of in-depth studies of the sites. For many sites, the remediation costs and other damages for which we ultimately may be responsible cannot be reasonably estimated because of uncertainties with respect to factors such as our connection to the site, the materials there, the involvement of other potentially

Unaudited
responsible parties, the application of laws and other standards or regulations, site conditions, and the nature and scope of investigations, studies, and remediation to be undertaken (including the technologies to be required and the extent, duration, and success of remediation).
Legal Proceedings
From time to time we are a party to various legal proceedings. We are currently a defendant in numerous actions and have received numerous claims on which actions have not yet been commenced for public liability and property damage arising from the operation of motor vehicles and equipment rented from us and our licensees. The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles and equipment, as stated on our balance sheet, 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 actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 our liability recorded for public liability and property damage matters was $286.5 million and $277.8 million, respectively. The increase in the reserve balance primarily reflects the timing of payment activity during the period and the effects of foreign currency translation. We believe that our analysis was based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions, and that we may prudently rely on this information to determine the estimated liability. We note 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 our estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results.
For a detailed description of certain of our legal proceedings please see Note 10 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
The following recent developments pertaining to legal proceedings described in our Annual Report are furnished on a supplemental basis:
In August 2010, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the complaint as to all defendants in the In re Tourism Assessment Fee Litigation. The deadline for plaintiffs to request a rehearing of this decision has passed.
Aside from the above mentioned, there were no material changes in the legal proceedings described in our Annual Report and in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, and we are not otherwise required to disclose any pending legal proceedings in response to Item 103 of Regulation S-K.
In addition to those described in our Form 10-K, various other legal actions, claims and governmental inquiries and proceedings are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against us and our subsidiaries. Other than with respect to the aggregate claims for public liability and property damage pending against us, management does not believe that any of the matters resolved, or pending against us, are material to us and our subsidiaries taken as a whole.
We have established reserves for matters where we believe that the losses are probable and reasonably estimated. Other than with respect to the reserve established for claims for public liability and property damage, none of those reserves are material. For matters where we have 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. Litigation is 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 or in our Annual Report, could be decided unfavorably against us or any of our 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 our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.
Note 17Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (in millions of dollars, except per share amounts):

Diluted earnings (loss) per share computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 excluded the weighted-average impact of the assumed exercise of approximately 9.5 million and 23.6 million shares, respectively, of stock options, RSUs and PSUs, because such impact would be antidilutive. Additionally, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, there was no impact to the diluted earnings (loss) per share computations associated with the Convertible Senior Notes, because such impact would be antidilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 excluded the weighted-average impact of the assumed exercise of approximately 8.1 million and 22.6 million shares, respectively, of stock options, RSUs and PSUs, because such impact would be antidilutive. Additionally, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, there was no impact to the diluted earnings (loss) per share computations associated with the Convertible Senior Notes, because such impact would be antidilutive.
Note 18Subsequent Events
On April 25, 2010, we entered into a definitive merger agreement, or the "Merger Agreement," under which we agreed to acquire Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. or "Dollar Thrifty," subject to certain conditions, including the condition that Dollar Thrifty shareholders vote to adopt the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement was subsequently amended on September 10, 2010, to increase the consideration payable by us to Dollar Thrifty stockholders. On September 30, 2010, stockholders of Dollar Thrifty did not vote in favor of the proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. As a result, on October 1, 2010, we terminated the Merger Agreement. We incurred legal, accounting, financial advisory and other expenses of approximately $20.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 in connection with the terminated Dollar Thrifty transaction.

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with the section below entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," with the financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, or this "Report."
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Report and in reports we subsequently file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or the "SEC," on Forms 10-K, 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," "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 SEC Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K.
Some important factors that could affect our actual results, include, among others, those that may be disclosed from time to time in subsequent reports filed with the SEC, those described under "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in Hertz Holdings' Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC, on February 26, 2010 and March 1, 2010, respectively, or collectively known as our "Annual Report," and in Part II, "Item 1A- Risk Factors" in Hertz Holdings' Quarterly Report on the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2010, or "Second Quarter Form 10-Q" and the following, which were derived in part from the risks set forth in the Annual Report and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q:

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Corporate History
We are a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the car and truck rental and leasing business since 1918 and the equipment rental business since 1965. Hertz Holdings was incorporated in Delaware in 2005 and had no operations prior to the Acquisition (as defined below).
On
December 21, 2005 investment funds associated with or designated by:
or collectively the "Sponsors," acquired all of Hertz's common stock from Ford Holdings LLC. We refer to the acquisition of all of Hertz's common stock by the Sponsors as the "Acquisition." Following our initial public offering in November 2006 and subsequent offerings in June 2007, May 2009 and June 2009, the Sponsors currently own approximately 51% of the common stock of Hertz Holdings.
In January 2009, Bank of America Corporation, or "Bank of America," acquired Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., the parent company of MLGPE. Accordingly, Bank of America is now an indirect beneficial owner of our common stock held by MLGPE and certain of its affiliates.
Overview of Our Business
We are engaged principally in the business of renting cars and renting equipment.
Our
revenues primarily are derived from rental and related charges and consist of:
Our equipment rental business also derives revenues from the sale of new equipment and consumables.
Our
expenses primarily consist of:

Our profitability is primarily a function of the volume, mix and pricing of rental transactions and the utilization of cars and equipment. Significant changes in the purchase price or residual values of cars and equipment 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. In the U.S., as of September 30, 2010, the percentage of non-program cars was 64% as compared to 66% as of September 30, 2009. Internationally, as of September 30, 2010, the percentage of non-program cars was 60%, compared to 59% as of September 30, 2009. In the U.S., as of December 31, 2009, the percentage of non-program cars was 67% as compared to 74% as of December 31, 2008. Internationally, as of December 31, 2009, the percentage of non-program cars was 71%, compared to 68% as of December 31, 2008.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we experienced a 9.1% increase in transaction days versus the prior period in the United States and rental rate revenue per transaction day, or "RPD," increased 0.3%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, in our European operations, we experienced a 3.6% improvement in transaction days and a 1.8% improvement in our car rental RPD compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Our U.S. off-airport operations represented $816.6 million and $722.0 million of our total car rental revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of September 30, 2010, we have 1,890 off-airport locations. Our strategy includes selected openings of new off-airport locations, the disciplined evaluation of existing locations and the pursuit of same-store sales growth. Our strategy also includes increasing penetration in the off-airport market and growing the online leisure market with our Advantage brand, particularly in the longer length weekly sector, which is characterized by lower vehicle costs and lower transaction costs at a lower RPD. Increasing our penetration in these sectors is consistent with our long-term strategy to generate profitable growth. When we open a new off-airport location, we incur a number of costs, including those relating to site selection, lease negotiation, recruitment of employees, selection and development of managers, initial sales activities and integration of our systems with those of the companies who will reimburse the location's replacement renters for their rentals. A new off-airport location, once opened, takes time to generate its full potential revenues and, as a result, revenues at new locations do not initially cover their start-up costs and often do not, for some time, cover the costs of their ongoing operations.
In early 2010, Toyota announced recalls of several of its models. As such, we temporarily took a portion of our Toyota fleet out of service. Approximately 13% of our total U.S. car rental fleet was affected by the largest of these recalls. We rapidly made repairs to the recalled vehicles and returned them to our car rental fleet. There was a short-term impact on our business to cover the costs associated with repairing these vehicles; however, we believe that this recall will not have a long-term material impact on our business. Also, we unfortunately turned away some, but not a significant number of rentals as a result of this recall. See "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.
HERC experienced lower rental volumes and pricing worldwide for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the prior year period.

Our car rental and equipment rental operations are seasonal businesses, with decreased levels of business in the winter months and heightened activity during the spring and summer. We have the ability to dynamically manage fleet capacity, the most significant portion of our cost structure, to meet market demand. For instance, to accommodate increased demand, we increase our available fleet and staff during the second and third quarters of the year. As business demand declines, fleet and staff are decreased accordingly. A number of our other major operating costs, including airport concession fees, commissions and vehicle liability expenses, are directly related to revenues or transaction volumes. In addition, our management expects to utilize enhanced process improvements, including efficiency initiatives and the use of our information technology systems, to help manage our variable costs. Approximately two-thirds of our typical annual operating costs represent variable costs, while the remaining one-third is fixed or semi-fixed. We also maintain a flexible workforce, with a significant number of part time and seasonal workers. However, certain operating expenses, including minimum concession fees, rent, insurance, and administrative overhead, remain fixed and cannot be adjusted for seasonal demand.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our equipment rental business incurred charges for losses on available for sale equipment and the disposal of surplus equipment and recognition of future facility lease obligations related to branch closures in North America. Additionally, our European car rental business has incurred charges primarily associated with employee severance and relocation as a result of the pan-European migration of in-country back office operations to our shared services center in Dublin, Ireland. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, restructuring charges included employee termination liabilities covering approximately 445 employees.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, our consolidated statement of operations includes restructuring charges relating to the initiatives discussed above of $14.6 million and $45.5 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, our consolidated statement of operations includes restructuring charges relating to the initiatives discussed above of $35.7 million and $87.2 million, respectively.
See Note 13 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
On April 25, 2010, we entered into a definitive merger agreement, or the "Merger Agreement," under which we agreed to acquire Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. or "Dollar Thrifty," subject to certain conditions, including the condition that Dollar Thrifty shareholders vote to adopt the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement was subsequently amended on September 10, 2010, to increase the consideration payable by us to Dollar Thrifty stockholders. On September 30, 2010, stockholders of Dollar Thrifty did not vote in favor of the proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. As a result, on October 1, 2010, we terminated the Merger Agreement. We incurred legal, accounting, financial advisory and other expenses of approximately $20.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 in connection with the terminated Dollar Thrifty transaction.

Direct Operating Expenses
Direct operating expenses increased 3.5% as a result of increases in fleet related expenses, personnel related expenses and other direct operating expenses.
Fleet related expenses increased 12.0%. The increase was primarily related to worldwide car rental and equipment rental volume demand which resulted in increases in self insurance expense of $13.2 million, gasoline costs of $7.9 million, vehicle damage costs of $5.9 million, vehicle license taxes of $5.4 million, equipment maintenance costs of $5.3 million and equipment freight expenses of $3.0 million, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $8.2 million.
Personnel related expenses increased 1.7%. The increase was primarily related to increases in outside services of $6.4 million and wages and benefits of $5.1 million, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $4.5 million and a decrease in incentive compensation costs of $2.0 million.
45
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
Other direct operating expenses increased 0.5%. The increase was primarily related to increases in concession fees, commission fees and guaranteed charge card fees related to worldwide car rental volume demand. These increases were partly offset by a reduction in restructuring and restructuring related charges and the effects of foreign currency translation.
Depreciation of Revenue Earning Equipment
Car Rental Segment
Depreciation of revenue earning equipment for our car rental segment of $432.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased 1.7% from $425.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily related to an 8.8% increase in the size of our average fleet, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation.
Equipment Rental Segment
Depreciation of revenue earning equipment in our equipment rental segment of $68.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 7.3% from $73.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a 5.0% reduction in average acquisition cost of rental equipment operated during the period.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 6.2%, due to a decrease in administrative expenses, partly offset by an increase in advertising.
Administrative expenses decreased $15.7 million, or 13.6%, primarily due to decreases in restructuring and restructuring related charges of $17.4 million, incentive compensation of $4.9 million and the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $2.1 million, partly offset by increases in legal expenses and consultant fees of $11.2 million primarily related to the terminated Dollar Thrifty transaction.
Advertising expenses increased $4.7 million, or 14.5%, primarily due to increased media advertising.
Interest Expense
Car Rental Segment
Interest expense for our car rental segment of $113.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased 49.6% from $76.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the weighted average debt outstanding as a result of an increased fleet size.
Equipment Rental Segment
Interest expense for our equipment rental segment of $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 34.5% from $13.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the weighted average debt outstanding as a result of reduced fleet size.

ADJUSTED PRE-TAX INCOME
Car Rental Segment
Adjusted pre-tax income for our car rental segment of $309.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased 19.7% from $258.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to stronger volumes, increased pricing and disciplined cost management. Adjustments to our car rental segment income before income taxes on a GAAP basis for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, totaled $48.1 million and $84.1 million, respectively. See footnote c to the table under "Results of Operations" for a summary and description of these adjustments.
Equipment Rental Segment
Adjusted pre-tax income for our equipment rental segment of $33.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased 33.7% from $25.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to stronger volumes and disciplined cost management performance. Adjustments to our equipment rental segment income before income taxes on a GAAP basis for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, totaled $26.1 million and $22.2 million, respectively.

(Provision) Benefit for Taxes on Income
The benefit for taxes on income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $3.0 million and the provision for taxes on income in the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $6.9 million. The change was primarily due to the mix of income before income taxes in various taxing jurisdictions and discrete benefits in the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the mix of income before income taxes in various taxing jurisdictions and discrete benefits in the three months ended September 30, 2009. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was (1.9)% as compared to 9.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2009. The change in tax rates is generally due to the factors noted above.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased 5.0% due to an increase in our majority-owned subsidiary Navigation Solutions, L.L.C.'s net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009.
Net Income Attributable to Hertz Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries' Common Stockholders
The net income attributable to Hertz Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries' common stockholders increased $92.1 million, primarily due to higher rental volume in our worldwide car and equipment rental operations, increased pricing in our worldwide car rental operations and disciplined cost management, partly offset by lower pricing in our worldwide equipment rental operations. The impact of changes in exchange rates on net loss was mitigated by the fact that not only revenues but also most expenses outside of the United States were incurred in local currencies.

Car Rental Segment
Revenues from our car rental segment increased 9.4%, primarily as a result of increases in car rental transaction days worldwide of 7.6%, worldwide RPD of 0.5%, refueling fees of $35.0 million and airport concession recovery fees of $26.6 million, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $2.1 million.
RPD for worldwide car rental for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 0.5% from 2009, due to increases in International RPD of 1.2% and U.S. RPD of 0.3%. U.S. off-airport RPD improved by 3.4% and U.S. airport RPD decreased 0.8%. U.S. airport RPD decreased due to the lower RPD that our Advantage brand generates.
Equipment Rental Segment
Revenues from our equipment rental segment decreased 6.3%, primarily due to a 5.4% decrease in equipment rental volume, a 5.4% decline in pricing and a decrease in equipment sales of $9.8 million, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $16.5 million.
Other
Revenues from all other sources decreased $4.0 million, primarily due to a decrease in revenues from our third-party claim management services.

Direct Operating Expenses
Direct operating expenses increased 6.0% as a result of increases in fleet related expenses, personnel related expenses, other direct operating expenses and the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $11.3 million.
Fleet related expenses increased 16.3%. The increase was primarily related to worldwide car rental volume demand which resulted in increases in gasoline costs of $37.4 million, self insurance expense of $29.0 million, vehicle damage costs of $14.7 million and vehicle license taxes of $11.8 million. Equipment maintenance costs increased by $11.1 million relating to efforts to maximize the use of our existing fleet.
Personnel related expenses increased 7.7%. The increase was primarily related to increases in wages and benefits of $26.3 million, incentive compensation costs of $21.8 million, outside services of $16.9 million and the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $5.7 million.
Other direct operating expenses increased 0.1%. The increase was primarily related to worldwide car rental volume demand which resulted in increases in fleet related expenses, including the effects of foreign currency translation. These increases were partly offset by decreases in restructuring and restructuring related charges, equipment rental cost of goods sold and credit and collections expense.
Depreciation of Revenue Earning Equipment
Car Rental Segment
Depreciation of revenue earning equipment for our car rental segment of $1,210.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 0.8% from $1,220.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily related to an improvement in certain vehicle residual values, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Equipment Rental Segment
Depreciation of revenue earning equipment in our equipment rental segment of $206.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 16.7% from $247.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a 5.6% reduction in average acquisition cost of rental equipment operated during the period and higher residual values on the disposal of used equipment, partly offset by the effects of foreign currency translation.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4.2%, due to increases in advertising, administrative expenses and sales promotion expenses and the effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $1.0 million.
Advertising expenses increased $16.8 million, or 18.8%, primarily due to increased media advertising.
Administrative expenses increased $2.8 million, or 0.9%, primarily due to increases in legal and consulting expenses and salaries and related expenses, partly offset by a decrease in restructuring and restructuring related charges.
Sales promotion expenses increased $0.9 million, or 0.9%, primarily related to the effects of foreign currency translation.
Interest Expense
Car Rental Segment
Interest expense for our car rental segment of $301.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 34.5% from $224.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the weighted average debt outstanding as a result of an increased fleet size.
Equipment Rental Segment
Interest expense for our equipment rental segment of $29.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 29.9% from $42.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the weighted average debt outstanding as a result of reduced fleet size.
Other
Other interest expense relating to interest on corporate debt of $241.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 3.9% from $232.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to interest expense on the Convertible Senior Notes issued in May 2009.
Interest and Other Income, Net
Interest and other income, net decreased $42.2 million primarily due to a gain of $48.5 million, net of transaction costs, recorded in connection with the buyback of portions of our Senior Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes in 2009.

ADJUSTED PRE-TAX INCOME
Car Rental Segment
Adjusted pre-tax income for our car rental segment of $512.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 39.2% from $368.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to stronger volumes, increased pricing and disciplined cost management. Adjustments to our car rental segment income before income taxes on a GAAP basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, totaled $157.5 million and $204.0 million, respectively. See footnote c to the table under "Results of Operations" for a summary and description of these adjustments.
Equipment Rental Segment
Adjusted pre-tax income for our equipment rental segment of $43.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased 15.0% from $50.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to reductions in volume and pricing, partly offset by strong cost management performance and higher residual values on the disposal of used equipment. Adjustments to our equipment rental segment loss before income taxes on a GAAP basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, totaled $74.6 million and $74.1 million, respectively. See footnote c to the table under "Results of Operations" for a summary and description of these adjustments.

The provision for taxes on income was $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and the benefit for taxes on income was $19.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The change was primarily due to a lower loss before income taxes and a reduction in discrete benefits recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was (3.0)% as compared to 19.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The change in tax rates is generally due to the factors noted above.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased 13.2% due to an increase in our majority-owned subsidiary Navigation Solutions, L.L.C.'s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Net Loss Attributable to Hertz Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries' Common Stockholders
The net loss attributable to Hertz Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries' common stockholders decreased 80.1% primarily due to higher rental volume and increased pricing in our worldwide car rental operations and disciplined cost management, partly offset by lower rental volume and pricing in our worldwide equipment rental operations. The impact of changes in exchange rates on net loss was mitigated by the fact that not only revenues but also most expenses outside of the United States were incurred in local currencies.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our domestic and international operations are funded by cash provided by operating activities and by extensive financing arrangements maintained by us in the United States, Europe, Puerto Rico, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Brazil.
Cash Flows
As of September 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,483.3 million, an increase of $497.7 million from $985.6 million as of December 31, 2009. The following table summarizes such increase:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we generated $479.4 million more cash from operating activities compared with the same period in 2009. The increase was primarily due to a change in accounts payable driven by effective management of vendor terms taken in 2010 and a change in accrued liabilities due to cash payments in 2009 relating to the buydown of our rate on our interest rate swaps as well as increased restructuring payments in 2009. On November 2, 2010 we issued our earnings press release which included preliminary results for our net cash provided by operating activities in the third quarter of 2010 of $904.7 million. This amount was overstated by $168.7 million due to the treatment of non-cash revenue earning equipment expenditures in the statement of cash flows.
Our primary use of cash in investing activities was for the acquisition of revenue earning equipment, which consists of cars and equipment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we used $1,706.4 million more cash for investing activities compared with the same period in 2009. The use of funds was primarily due to an increase in revenue earning equipment expenditures and the
56
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
year-over-year change in restricted cash and cash equivalents, partly offset by an increase in proceeds from the disposal of revenue earning equipment. The increase in revenue earning equipment expenditures and in proceeds from the disposal of revenue earning equipment was related to higher car rental volumes and a general improvement in the car rental market. The year-over-year change in restricted cash and cash equivalents was primarily related to the economic conditions which affected the demand for revenue earning equipment and our Like Kind Exchange Program, or "LKE Program." As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had $739.6 million and $365.2 million, respectively, of restricted cash and cash equivalents to be used for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our fleet financing facilities, our LKE Program and to satisfy certain of our self-insurance regulatory reserve requirements. The increase in restricted cash and cash equivalents of $374.4 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, primarily related to the timing of purchases and sales of revenue earning vehicles, partly offset by a decrease relating to the temporary suspension of our LKE program. See "Income Taxes" below.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we generated $1,483.3 million more cash from financing activities compared with the same period in 2009. The increase was primarily due to increases in proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and net proceeds under the revolving lines of credit, partly offset by the payment of long-term debt, prior year's proceeds from the sale of common stock and convertible debt offering and repayment of short-term borrowings.
Financing
Our car rental and equipment rental operations are seasonal businesses with decreased levels of business in the winter months and typically heightened activity during the spring and summer. To accommodate increased demand, we maintain a larger fleet by holding vehicles and equipment and purchasing additional fleet which increases our financing requirements. These seasonal financing needs are funded by increasing the utilization of our various corporate and fleet credit facilities and the variable funding notes portion of our U.S. Fleet Debt facilities as defined in Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." As business demand moderates during the winter, we reduce our fleet accordingly and dispose of vehicles and equipment. The disposal proceeds are used to reduce debt.
Our primary liquidity needs include servicing of corporate and fleet related debt, the payment of operating expenses and purchases of rental vehicles and equipment to be used in our operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating revenue, cash received on the disposal of vehicles and equipment, borrowings under our asset-backed borrowing arrangements and our revolving credit facilities.
As of September 30, 2010, we had $12,046.9 million of total indebtedness outstanding. Cash paid for interest during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was $448.9 million, net of amounts capitalized. Accordingly, 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 and capital expenditures.
Our liquidity as of September 30, 2010 consisted of cash and cash equivalents, unused commitments under our Senior ABL Facility and unused commitments under our fleet financing facilities. For a description of these amounts, see Note 8 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report as well as "Credit Facilities" below.
57
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
Based on our current availability under our various credit facilities and our business plan, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our debt maturities over the next twelve months.
In June 2010, HVF, our wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $184.3 million in aggregate principal amount of 3-year and 5-year Subordinated Series 2009-2 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, Class B, or the "Series 2009-2 Class B Notes." The 3-year notes carry a 4.94% coupon (5.00% yield at issuance) and the 5-year notes carry a 5.93% coupon (6.01% yield at issuance) with expected final maturities in 2013 and 2015, respectively. The net proceeds of the offering were used to purchase vehicles under our ABS Program, used to pay other ABS indebtedness or distributed to Hertz and used for general corporate purposes. The Series 2009-2 Class B Notes are included in U.S. Fleet Debt.
In June 2010, Hertz issued EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $543.4 million as of September 30, 2010) aggregate principal amount of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2015, or the "Euro Notes," and entered into a EUR 220 million (the equivalent of $298.9 million) revolving credit facility that matures in 2013, or the "European Credit Facility." The net proceeds of the Euro Notes and European Credit Facility were used to refinance our International Fleet Debt and Belgian Fleet Financing Facility, both of which were due to mature in December 2010, and the excess was used for general corporate purposes. The Euro Notes and the European Credit Facility are the primary fleet financing for our rental car operations in Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland. The Euro Notes and the European Credit Facility are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Hertz and certain U.S. subsidiaries of Hertz and on a senior secured basis by certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of Hertz.
In July 2010, Hertz entered into a EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $543.4 million as of September 30, 2010) asset-backed securitization facility, or "European Securitization," which matures in 2012, the proceeds of which were used to refinance the portion of our existing International ABS Fleet Financing Facility relating to France and the Netherlands, which was due to mature in December 2010.
In addition, in July 2010, HVF issued approximately $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 3-year, 5-year and 7-year Series 2010-1 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, or "Series 2010-1 Notes." The 3-year, 5-year and 7-year notes have expected final maturities in 2014, 2016 and 2018, respectively. The net proceeds of the offering were used to purchase vehicles under the ABS Program of HVF, to pay other ABS indebtedness or distributed to Hertz and used for general corporate purposes. The Series 2010-1 Notes are included as part of our U.S. Fleet Debt.
In September 2010, Hertz entered into amendments to its Senior Term Facility and Senior ABL Facility. The amendments provide, among other things, for additional capacity under the covenants in the Senior Term Facility and Senior ABL Facility to incur refinancing and acquisition indebtedness. The amendment to the Senior ABL Facility increases the overall letter of credit sublimit and allows for Australian dollar denominated letters of credit.
In addition, in September 2010, Hertz issued $700 million aggregate principal amount of 7.5% Senior Notes due 2018, or "2010 Senior Notes." The net proceeds of the offerings were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of consolidated indebtedness.
As of September 30, 2010, we have approximately $217.7 million of remaining international fleet debt outstanding that matures in December 2010. We are currently in discussions regarding our remaining refinancing options, and based on these discussions and our ability to access the capital markets, we expect to refinance the remaining debt maturing in December 2010 on or prior to maturity. In the event financing is not available or is not available on terms we deem acceptable, we would expect to utilize our corporate liquidity to repay these obligations.
58
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
The agreements governing our corporate indebtedness require us to comply with two key covenants based on a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio. Our failure to comply with the obligations contained in any agreements governing our indebtedness could result in an event of default under the applicable instrument, which could result in the related debt becoming immediately due and payable and could further result in a cross default or cross acceleration of our debt issued under other instruments. However, as a result of the above-mentioned actions and planned future actions, we believe that we will remain in compliance with our corporate debt covenants and that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt service obligations, ongoing costs of operations, working capital needs and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. Our future financial and operating performance, ability to service or refinance our debt and ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in our corporate debt agreements will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
MBIA Insurance Corporation, or "MBIA," and Ambac Assurance Corporation, or "Ambac," provide credit enhancements in the form of financial guarantees for our 2005 Notes, with each providing guarantees for approximately half of the $875.0 million in principal amount of the 2005 Notes that was outstanding as of September 30, 2010, all of which matures during 2010.
An event of bankruptcy with respect to MBIA or Ambac between now and the maturities of the 2005 Notes in 2010 would result in an amortization event under the portion of the 2005 Notes guaranteed by the affected insurer. In addition, if an amortization event continues for 30 days or longer, the noteholders of the affected series of notes would have the right to require liquidation of a portion of the fleet sufficient to repay such notes, provided that the exercise of the right was exercised by a majority of the affected noteholders. Ambac has publicly stated that it has insufficient capital to finance its debt service and operating expense requirements beyond the second quarter of 2011 and may need to seek bankruptcy protection. Accordingly, if a bankruptcy of MBIA or Ambac were to occur prior to the 2005 Notes maturing, we expect that we would use our corporate liquidity and the borrowings under or proceeds from these recent financings to pay down the amounts owed under the affected series of 2005 Notes. The Series 2009-1 Notes, Series 2009-2 Notes, Series 2009-2 Class B Notes or the Series 2010-1 Notes are not guaranteed.
A significant number of cars that we purchase are subject to repurchase by car manufacturers under contractual repurchase or guaranteed depreciation programs. Under these programs, car manufacturers agree to repurchase cars at a specified price or guarantee the depreciation rate on the cars during a specified time period, typically subject to certain car condition and mileage requirements. We use this specified price or guaranteed depreciation rate to calculate our asset-backed financing capacity. If any manufacturer of our cars fails to fulfill its repurchase or guaranteed depreciation obligations, due to bankruptcy or otherwise, our asset-backed financing capacity could be decreased, or we may be required to materially increase the credit enhancement levels relating to the financing of the fleet vehicles provided by such bankrupt manufacturer under certain of our fleet financing facilities. For a discussion of the risks associated with a manufacturer's bankruptcy or our reliance on asset-backed financing, see "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.
We rely significantly on asset-backed financing to purchase cars for our domestic and international car rental fleet. The amount of financing available to us pursuant to these programs depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including recently adopted legislation, proposed SEC rules and regulations and other legislative and administrative developments. In this regard, there has
59
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
been uncertainty regarding the potential impact of recently proposed SEC rules and regulations governing the issuance of asset-backed securities and additional requirements contained in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. While we will continue to monitor these developments and their impact on our ABS program, the SEC rules and regulations, once adopted and implemented, may impact our ability and/or desire to engage in asset-backed financings in the future. For further information concerning our asset-backed financing programs, see Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." For a discussion of risks related to our reliance on asset-backed financing to purchase cars, see "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.
In the event of a bankruptcy of a car manufacturer, our liquidity would be impacted by several factors including reductions in fleet residual values, as discussed above, and the risk that we would be unable to collect outstanding receivables due to us from such bankrupt manufacturer. In addition, the program cars manufactured by any such company would need to be removed from our fleet or re-designated as non-program vehicles, which would require us to furnish additional collateral enhancement associated with these program vehicles. For a discussion of the risks associated with a manufacturer's bankruptcy or our reliance on asset-backed financing, see "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.
We have a significant amount of debt that will mature over the next several years. The aggregate amounts of maturities of debt for each of the twelve-month periods ending September 30 (in millions of dollars) are as follows: 2011, $4,191.0 (including $3,190.2 of other short-term borrowings); 2012, $179.6; 2013, $1,969.3; 2014, $2,749.6; 2015, $1,413.5; after 2015, $1,674.1. For a discussion of maturities, see Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." Our short-term borrowings of $3,190.2 million as of September 30, 2010 include, among other items, the amounts outstanding under our International ABS Fleet Financing Facility, European Securitization, Fleet Financing Facility, Brazilian Fleet Financing Facility, Canadian Fleet Financing Facility, Capitalized Leases and European Credit Facility. These amounts are considered short-term in nature since they have maturity dates of three months or less; however these facilities are revolving in nature and do not expire at the time of the short-term debt maturity except for our International ABS Fleet Financing Facility and Brazilian Fleet Financing Facility which mature in December 2010. As a result of our successful refinancing efforts in 2009 and the first half of 2010 and the strategic cost reduction actions taken in the past as well as those planned for the remainder of 2010, we believe that we will remain in compliance with our debt covenants and that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt service obligations, ongoing costs of operations, working capital needs and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. Our future financial and operating performance, ability to service or refinance our debt and ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in our debt agreements will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
For further information on our indebtedness, see Note 8 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

Covenants
Certain of our debt instruments and credit facilities 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 other indebtedness, make dividends and other restricted payments, create liens, make investments, make acquisitions, engage in mergers, change the nature of their business, make capital expenditures, or engage in certain transactions with affiliates. Some of these agreements also require the maintenance of certain financial covenants. As of September 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.
As of September 30, 2010, we had an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $1,348.4 million pursuant to our Senior Term Facility and no amounts outstanding in our Senior ABL Facility. As of September 30, 2010, Hertz was required under the Senior Term Facility to have a consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 5.25:1 and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio of not less than 2.00:1. In addition, under our Senior ABL Facility, if there was less than $200.0 million of available borrowing capacity under that facility as of September 30, 2010, Hertz was required to have a consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 5.25:1 and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1:1 for the quarter then ended. Under the Senior Term Facility, as of September 30, 2010, we had a consolidated leverage ratio of 4.20:1 and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio of 3.57:1. Since we had maintained sufficient borrowing capacity under our Senior ABL Facility as of September 30, 2010, and expect to maintain such capacity in the future, the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was not deemed relevant for presentation. For further information on the terms of our senior credit facilities, see Note 3 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." In addition to the borrowings under our senior credit facilities, we have a significant amount of additional debt outstanding. For a discussion of the risks associated with our significant leverage, see "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.

As of September 30, 2010, the Senior Term Facility had approximately $11.4 million available under the letter of credit facility and the Senior ABL Facility had $406.2 million available under the letter of credit facility sublimit.
Our liquidity as of September 30, 2010 was $3,105.2 million, which consisted of $1,483.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $851.7 million of unused commitments under our Senior ABL Facility and $770.2 million of unused commitments under our fleet financing facilities. Taking into consideration the borrowing base limitations in our Senior ABL Facility and in our Fleet Debt, the amount that we had available for immediate use as of September 30, 2010 under our Senior ABL Facility was $851.7 million and we had $162.3 million of over-enhancement that was available under our Fleet Debt. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2010, we had $2,497.3 million ($1,483.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, $851.7 million available under our Senior ABL Facility and $162.3 million available under our various Fleet Debt facilities) in liquidity that was available for our immediate use. Future availability of borrowings under these facilities will depend on borrowing base requirements and other factors, many of which are outside our control.
Also, substantially all of our revenue earning equipment and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities, or are subject to liens in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities. Substantially all our other assets in the United States are also subject to liens in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities. None of these assets would be available to satisfy the claims of our general creditors if we failed to perform our obligations to such creditors.
Some of these special purpose entities are consolidated variable interest entities, of which Hertz is the primary beneficiary, whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend in various currencies subject

to borrowing bases comprised of rental vehicles and related assets of certain of Hertz International, Ltd.'s subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, our International Fleet Financing No. 1 B.V., International Fleet Financing No. 2 B.V., Hertz Fleet Limited and HA Funding Pty, Ltd. variable interest entities had total assets primarily comprised of revenue earning equipment of $461.6 million and $367.6 million, respectively, and total liabilities primarily comprised of debt of $569.2 million and $710.3 million, respectively.

The increase in our car rental operations revenue earning equipment expenditures was primarily due to higher rental volumes during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, which required us to increase our fleet levels. The increase in our equipment rental operations revenue earning equipment expenditures was primarily due to increased demand and due to our efforts to meet the current year's goal in updating aged fleet during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
The increase in car rental property and equipment expenditures are due to increased spending in response to an increase in demand and the opening of new off-airport locations. The increased level of expenditures in our equipment rental operations was a result of increased in demand.
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the following guarantees (including indemnification commitments) were issued and outstanding:
Indemnification Obligations
In the ordinary course of business, we execute 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. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third-party claim. We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and have accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable. The types of indemnification obligations for which payments are possible include the following:
Sponsors; Directors
Hertz has entered into customary indemnification agreements with Hertz Holdings, the Sponsors and our stockholders affiliated with the Sponsors, pursuant to which Hertz Holdings and Hertz will indemnify the Sponsors, our stockholders affiliated with the Sponsors 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 the Sponsors and certain other claims and liabilities, including liabilities arising out of financing arrangements or securities offerings. We also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors. We do not believe that these indemnifications are reasonably likely to have a material impact on us.
64
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
Environmental
We have indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which we may be held responsible could be substantial. The probable expenses that we expect to incur for such matters have been accrued, and those expenses are reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the aggregate amounts accrued for environmental liabilities, including liability for environmental indemnities, reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet in "Accrued liabilities" were $1.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The accrual generally represents the estimated cost to study potential environmental issues at sites deemed to require investigation or clean-up activities, and the estimated cost to implement remediation actions, including on-going maintenance, as required. Cost estimates are developed by site. Initial cost estimates are based on historical experience at similar sites and are refined over time on the basis of in-depth studies of the sites. For many sites, the remediation costs and other damages for which we ultimately may be responsible cannot be reasonably estimated because of uncertainties with respect to factors such as our connection to the site, the materials there, the involvement of other potentially responsible parties, the application of laws and other standards or regulations, site conditions, and the nature and scope of investigations, studies, and remediation to be undertaken (including the technologies to be required and the extent, duration, and success of remediation).
Risk Management
For a discussion of additional risks arising from our operations, including vehicle liability, general liability and property damage insurable risks, see "Item 1BusinessRisk Management" included in our Annual Report.
Market Risks
We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in gasoline 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. For more information on these exposures, see Note 12 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
Interest Rate Risk
From time to time, we may enter into interest rate swap agreements and/or interest rate cap agreements to manage interest rate risk. See Notes 8 and 14 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report and Notes 3 and 12 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."
We have a significant amount of debt (including under our U.S. Fleet Debt, European Credit Facility, other international fleet debt facilities, International ABS Fleet Financing Facility and Senior ABL Facility) with variable rates of interest based generally on LIBOR, Euro inter-bank offered rate, or "EURIBOR," or
65
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
their equivalents for local currencies plus an applicable margin. Increases in interest rates could therefore significantly increase the associated interest payments that we are required to make on this debt.
We have assessed our exposure to changes in interest rates by analyzing the sensitivity to our earnings assuming various changes in market interest rates. Assuming a hypothetical increase of one percentage point in interest rates on our debt portfolio as of September 30, 2010, our net income would decrease by an estimated $20.1 million over a twelve-month period.
Consistent with the terms of the agreements governing the respective debt obligations, we may hedge a portion of the floating rate interest exposure under the Senior Credit Facilities, the U.S. Fleet Debt, European Credit Facility and International ABS Fleet Financing Facility to provide protection in respect of such exposure.
Foreign Currency Risk
We manage our foreign currency risk primarily by incurring, to the extent practicable, operating and financing expenses in the local currency in the countries in which we operate, including making fleet and equipment purchases and borrowing for working capital needs. Also, we have purchased foreign exchange options to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates for selected marketing programs. The effect of exchange rate changes on these financial instruments would not materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Our risks with respect to foreign exchange options are limited to the premium paid for the right to exercise the option and the future performance of the option's counterparty.
We also manage exposure to fluctuations in currency risk on intercompany loans we make to certain of our subsidiaries by entering into foreign currency forward contracts at the time of the loans which are intended to offset the impact of foreign currency movements on the underlying intercompany loan obligations.
On October 1, 2006, we designated our Senior Euro Notes as an effective net investment hedge of our Euro-denominated net investment in our international operations.
See Note 14 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
Other Risks
We purchase unleaded gasoline and diesel fuel at prevailing market rates. In January 2009, we began a program to manage our exposure to changes in fuel prices through the use of derivative commodity instruments. See Note 14 of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
Inflation
The increased cost of vehicles is the primary inflationary factor affecting us. Many of our other operating expenses are also expected to increase with inflation, including health care costs and gasoline. Management does not expect that the effect of inflation on our overall operating costs will be greater for us than for our competitors.
66
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
Income Taxes
In January 2006, we implemented a LKE Program for our U.S. car rental business. Pursuant to the program, we dispose of vehicles and acquire replacement vehicles in a form intended to allow such dispositions and replacements to qualify as tax-deferred "like-kind exchanges" pursuant to section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. The program has resulted in deferral of federal and state income taxes for fiscal 2007, 2008 and 2009. A LKE Program for HERC has also been in place for several years. The program allows tax deferral if a qualified replacement asset is acquired within a specific time period after asset disposal. Accordingly, if a qualified replacement asset is not purchased within this limited time period, taxable gain is recognized. For strategic purposes, such as cash management and fleet reduction, we have recognized some taxable gains in the program. The bankruptcy filing of an original equipment manufacturer, or "OEM," also resulted in minimal gain recognition. We had sufficient net operating losses to fully offset the taxable gains recognized. We cannot offer assurance that the expected tax deferral will continue or that the relevant law concerning the programs will remain in its current form. An extended reduction in our car rental fleet could result in reduced deferrals in the future, which in turn could require us to make material cash payments for federal and state income tax liabilities. Our inability to obtain replacement financing as our fleet financing facilities mature would likely result in an extended reduction in the fleet. In the event of an extended fleet reduction, we believe the likelihood of making material cash tax payments in the near future is low because of our significant net operating losses. For a discussion of risks related to our reliance on asset-backed financing to purchase cars, see "Item 1ARisk Factors" included in our Annual Report and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.
In August 2010, we elected to temporarily suspend the LKE Program allowing cash proceeds from sales of vehicles to be utilized for various business purposes, one of which may be future debt reduction. Existing net operating losses will be used to offset the gains from the sales of vehicles during the suspension period. We will not have a significant tax liability from the temporary suspension of the LKE Program.
On January 1, 2009, Bank of America acquired Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., the parent company of MLGPE. Accordingly, Bank of America is now an indirect beneficial owner of our common stock held by MLGPE and certain of its affiliates. For U.S. income tax purposes the transaction, when combined with other unrelated transactions during the previous 36 months, resulted in a change in control as that term is defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, utilization of all pre-2009 U.S. net operating losses is subject to an annual limitation. The limitation is not expected to result in a loss of net operating losses or have a material adverse impact on taxes.
Employee Retirement Benefits
Pension
We sponsor defined benefit pension plans worldwide. Pension obligations give rise to significant expenses that are dependent on assumptions discussed in Note 4 of the Notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report under the caption "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." Based on present assumptions, our 2010 worldwide pre-tax pension expense is expected to be approximately $33.8 million, which would represent a decrease of $2.1 million from 2009. The anticipated decrease in expense compared to 2009 is primarily due to lower discount rates offset by increased contributions. We expect to contribute up to $54.1 million to our U.S. pension plan in the full year of 2010. These contributions are necessary primarily because of the significant decline in asset values.
67
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
We participate in various "multiemployer" pension plans administered by labor unions representing some of our employees. We make periodic contributions to these plans to allow them to meet their pension benefit obligations to their participants. In the event that we withdraw from participation in one of these plans, then applicable law could require us to make an additional lump-sum contribution to the plan, and we would have to reflect that as an expense in our consolidated statement of operations and as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our withdrawal liability for any multiemployer plan would depend on the extent of the plan's funding of vested benefits. In the ordinary course of our renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements with labor unions that maintain these plans, we could decide to discontinue participation in a plan, and in that event, we could face a withdrawal liability. Some multiemployer plans, including one in which we participate, are reported to have significant underfunded liabilities. Such underfunding could increase the size of our potential withdrawal liability.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was performed under the supervision of, and with the participation of, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
An evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting was performed under the supervision of, and with the participation of, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to determine whether any changes have occurred during the period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting have occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
