INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

HERTZ RENTAL CAR HOLDING COMPANY, INC.

This Registration Statement on Form 10 (this “Registration Statement”) is filed in connection with the spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) by Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (“Hertz Holdings”) to its stockholders of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc. (“New Hertz,” “we,” “our” and “us”). Following the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings (on a post-Spin-Off basis, referred to as “HERC Holdings”) will continue to operate Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business and New Hertz will continue to operate Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business.

Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings.

Certain information required to be included herein with respect to New Hertz and the registration of its shares of common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is incorporated by reference to specifically identified portions of the body of (a) the information statement with respect to the Spin-Off and HERC Holdings to be distributed to Hertz Holdings’ stockholders in advance of the Spin-Off filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Information Statement”), (b) the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Hertz Holdings (File No. 001-33139) for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed on July 16, 2015 (the “Form 10-K”) and (c) the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of Hertz Holdings (File No. 001-33139) for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2015 filed on July 16, 2015 (the “Q1 Form 10-Q”), the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015 of Hertz Holdings filed on August 10, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on November 9, 2015 (the “Q2 Form 10-Q”) and the quarterly period ended September 30, 2015 of Hertz Holdings filed on November 9, 2015 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q” and together with the Q1 Form 10-Q and the Q2 Form 10-Q, the “Form 10-Qs”) and (d) the Current Reports on Form 8-K of Hertz Holdings (File No. 001-33139) dated April 3, 2015 (the “April 3 Form 8-K”), May 27, 2015 (the “May 27 Form 8-K”), July 7, 2015 (the “July 7 Form 8-K”) and August 24, 2015 (the “August 24 Form 8-K” and together with the April 3 Form 8-K, the May 27 Form 8-K and the July 7 Form 8-K, the “Form 8-Ks”). None of the information contained in the Information Statement, the Form 10-K, the Form 10-Qs or the Form 8-Ks shall be incorporated by reference herein or deemed to be a part hereof unless such information is specifically incorporated by reference.

Item 11.	Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.

Overview

New Hertz’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws will be amended and restated prior to the distribution of its common stock in the Spin-Off. Hertz Holdings, as the sole stockholder of New Hertz, will adopt our amended and restated certificate of incorporation following the approval and recommendation of our board of directors. Our board of directors will adopt our amended and restated by-laws. The following are summaries of the material terms of our capital stock that, subject to the approval of our board of directors, will be contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and

amended and restated by-laws, which in each case are qualified in their entirety by reference to such complete documents, copies of which will be attached as exhibits to this Registration Statement.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will authorize 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will authorize 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, issuable in one or more series.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws will generally be based on those of Hertz Holdings described in the section of the Information Statement entitled “Description of Capital Stock.” However, at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders of Hertz Holdings, Hertz Holdings received stockholder approval to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to provide for declassification of its board of directors and, subsequent to the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, Hertz Holdings adopted such amendment. With such amendment, the classification of the Hertz Holdings’ board of directors (and, after the completion of the Spin-Off, the HERC Holdings board of directors) will be phased out such that the entire slate of directors would be up for election to serve one-year terms at the 2017 annual meeting, at which point the declassification of the HERC Holdings’ board of directors would be complete. Unlike HERC Holdings, New Hertz will have a completely declassified board of directors at the time of the completion of the Spin-Off, which will be reflected in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws.

Common Stock

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors standing for election.

The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive any dividends and other distributions that may be declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock will be entitled to receive proportionately any of our assets remaining after the payment of liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding preferred stock. Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock is subject to our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends to us, which is in turn subject to the restrictions set forth in the instruments governing our indebtedness.

Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. The rights and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to any series of preferred stock that we may issue, as described below.

Computershare Investor Services LLC will be the transfer agent and registrar for New Hertz common stock.

We expect to list New Hertz common stock on the NYSE under the symbol “HTZ,” which is the current trading symbol for Hertz Holdings common stock.

Preferred Stock

Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors will have the authority, without further vote or action by the stockholders, to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares of any class or series of preferred stock and to determine its voting powers, designations, preferences or other rights and restrictions. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock or impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. While no preferred stock will be issued or outstanding as of the completion of the Spin-Off, our board of directors could authorize and issue preferred stock in the future.

Corporate Governance

New Hertz will institute stockholder-friendly corporate governance practices, as described below.

Single Class Capital Structure. New Hertz will have a single class common equity capital structure with all stockholders entitled to vote for director nominees.

Annual Director Elections. The entire board will be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders, with each director to serve until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

Majority Voting Standard. At any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, the election will be determined by a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote in the election, with directors not receiving a majority of the votes cast required to tender their resignations for consideration by the board, except that in the case of a contested election, the election will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote in the election.

Special Stockholder Meetings. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called by (i) the board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors, (ii) the chairman of the board, (iii) the chief executive officer, or (iv) subject to certain procedures and conditions set forth therein, by the corporate secretary at the request of one or more stockholders who have held beneficial ownership of at least a twenty percent (20%) “net long position” of the outstanding common stock for at least thirty (30) days prior to the delivery of such request. Until such time as a single stockholder, or “group” of stockholders who have filed as such under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to their ownership of our common stock, owns at least a majority of our outstanding common stock, no stockholder will be permitted to propose the removal of directors or the election of directors at stockholder-called special meetings.

No Supermajority Provisions. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws will not have supermajority voting provisions.

Opt Out of Delaware Takeover Statute. We will opt out of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), which would otherwise impose additional requirements regarding mergers and other business combinations.

Other Expected Corporate Governance Features. It is expected that New Hertz will adopt stock ownership guidelines for directors and senior executive officers, annual board performance evaluations, clawback, anti-hedging and anti-pledging policies, conflict of interest policies, risk oversight procedures and other practices and protocols similar in scope and substance to those applicable to Hertz Holdings prior to the Spin-Off.

Exclusive Forum

New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that, unless New Hertz consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of New Hertz, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director or officer or other employee of New Hertz to New Hertz or New Hertz’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against New Hertz or any director or officer or other employee of New Hertz arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the amended and restated certificate of incorporation or bylaws (as either may be amended from time to time), or (iv) any action asserting a claim against New Hertz or any director or officer or other employee of New Hertz governed by the internal affairs doctrine shall be a state court located within the State of Delaware (or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware).

Change of Control Related Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and Delaware Law

A number of provisions contemplated to be included in New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws and under the DGCL may make it more difficult to acquire control of us. These provisions may have the effect of discouraging a future takeover attempt not approved by our board of directors but which individual stockholders may deem to be in their best interests or in which stockholders may receive a substantial premium for their shares over then current market prices. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. In addition, these provisions may adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock. These provisions are intended to:


•	enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors;


•	discourage some types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change in control of us;


•	discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights;


•	ensure that our board of directors will have sufficient time to act in what the board believes to be in the best interests of us and our stockholders; and


•	encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to consult first with our board to negotiate the terms of any proposed business combination or offer.

Unissued Shares of Capital Stock

Common Stock

The remaining shares of our authorized and unissued common stock will be available for future issuance without additional stockholder approval. While the additional shares are not designed to deter or prevent a change of control, under some circumstances we could use the additional shares to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control by, for example, issuing those shares in private placements to purchasers who might side with our board of directors in opposing a hostile takeover bid.

Preferred Stock

New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide our board of directors with the authority, without any further vote or action by our stockholders, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting any such series and the preferences, limitations and relative rights, including dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption price or prices, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any series. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock could reduce our attractiveness as a target for an unsolicited takeover bid since we could, for example, issue shares of preferred stock to parties who might oppose such a takeover bid or shares that contain terms the potential acquiror may find unattractive. This may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control, may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock, and may adversely affect the market price of, and the voting and other rights of the holders of, common stock.

Vacancies

Vacancies in our board of directors will only be able to be filled by our board of directors. Any director elected to fill a vacancy will hold office for the remainder of the term of the directorship that is the subject of such vacancy (including a vacancy created by increasing the size of the board) and until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. No decrease in the number of directors will shorten the term of any incumbent director. New Hertz’s amended and restated by-laws will provide that the number of directors shall be fixed and increased or decreased from time to time by resolution of the board of directors.

Advance Notice Requirements for Nomination of Directors and Presentation of New Business at Meetings of Stockholders; Action by Written Consent

New Hertz’s amended and restated by-laws will require advance notice for stockholder proposals and nominations for director. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary date of the annual meeting for the preceding year or, with respect to the initial annual meeting of New Hertz, not earlier than 120 days prior to the date of such initial annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth day prior to the date of such initial annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by New Hertz.

In addition, New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws will provide that action may not be taken by written consent of stockholders. Thus, any action taken by the stockholders will have to be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting.

These provisions will make it procedurally more difficult for a stockholder to place a proposal or nomination on the meeting agenda or to take action without a meeting, and therefore may reduce the likelihood that a stockholder will seek to

take independent action to replace directors or seek a stockholder vote with respect to other matters that are not supported by management.

No Cumulative Voting

The DGCL provides that stockholders are denied the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless the company’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation will not provide for cumulative voting.

Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that no director will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that this limitation on or exemption from liability is not permitted by the DGCL, as amended.

The principal effect of the limitation on liability provision is that a stockholder will be unable to prosecute an action for monetary damages against a director unless the stockholder can demonstrate a basis for liability for which indemnification is not available under the DGCL. This provision, however, will not eliminate or limit director liability arising in connection with causes of action brought under the federal securities laws or eliminate our directors’ duty of care. The inclusion of this provision in New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation may, however, discourage or deter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for a breach of their fiduciary duties, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited us and our stockholders. This provision should not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission based upon a director’s breach of the duty of care.

New Hertz’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that we are required to indemnify and advance expenses to our directors to the fullest extent permitted by law, except in the case of a proceeding instituted by the director without the approval of our board of directors. New Hertz’s amended and restated by-laws will provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted by law, for all judgments, fines, settlements, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with pending or threatened legal proceedings because of the director’s or officer’s positions with us or another entity that the director or officer serves at our request, subject to various conditions, and to advance funds to our directors and officers to enable them to defend against such proceedings. To receive indemnification, the director or officer must have acted in good faith and in what was reasonably believed to be a lawful manner in our best interest.

New Hertz will enter into indemnification agreements with each of its directors, providing the directors contractual rights to indemnification, expense advance provided by its by-laws, and contractual rights to additional indemnification as provided in the applicable indemnification agreement.

INFORMATION STATEMENT

HERC HOLDINGS, INC.

27500 Riverview Center Blvd.

Bonita Springs, Florida 34134

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (“Hertz Holdings”) is furnishing this information statement to its stockholders in connection with the spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) by Hertz Holdings to its stockholders of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc. (“New Hertz”). The Spin-Off will result in the separation of Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business, which will continue to be operated by HERC Holdings (as defined below) through its operating subsidiaries, including Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation (“HERC”), following the Spin-Off, from its global car rental business, which will continue to be operated by New Hertz through its operating subsidiaries, including The Hertz Corporation (“Hertz”), following the Spin-Off.

For every common share of Hertz Holdings you hold of record as of the close of business on [ ], 2016, the record date for the distribution, you will be entitled to receive one share of New Hertz common stock. Hertz Holdings will distribute the shares of New Hertz common stock in book-entry form, which means that we will not issue physical stock certificates.

In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will be renamed “HERC Holdings, Inc.” Throughout this information statement, we refer to the current Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. prior to the Spin-Off as “Hertz Holdings” and following the Spin-Off as “HERC Holdings.”

There is no current trading market for New Hertz common stock. We expect to list New Hertz common stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol “HTZ,” which is the current trading symbol for Hertz Holdings common stock. Following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will change the symbol for its common stock to [ ]. We expect that a limited market, commonly known as a when-issued trading market, for New Hertz common stock will develop on or shortly before the record date, and that regular way trading of New Hertz common stock will begin on the first trading day after the distribution date.

In reviewing this information statement, you should carefully consider the matters described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 15.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this information statement. Any representation to the contrary by any party is a criminal offense.

Due to the nature of the Spin-Off, New Hertz, which will be an independent publicly traded company, will be considered the accounting successor to Hertz Holdings and HERC Holdings will be considered the spun-off entity in the Spin-Off for accounting purposes. This information statement describes the equipment rental assets, liabilities, businesses and activities of HERC Holdings as though they were HERC Holdings’ assets, liabilities, businesses and activities for all historical periods described. However, HERC Holdings will conduct or hold the assets, liabilities, businesses and activities of Hertz Holdings that are not transferred to or assumed by New Hertz in connection with the Spin-Off and the internal reorganization in contemplation thereof. The historical financial information of HERC Holdings contained in this information statement is not necessarily indicative of the future financial position, results of operations or cash flows of HERC Holdings, nor does it reflect what the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of HERC Holdings would have been had HERC Holdings operated as a stand-alone company during the periods presented.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

Information in this information statement about the equipment rental industry, including among other statements our general expectations concerning this industry, our market position and our market share, are based on estimates prepared using data from various sources and on assumptions made by us. We believe data regarding the equipment rental industry and our market position and market share within this industry are inherently imprecise, but generally indicate our size, position and market share within this industry. Although we believe that the information from third parties (including industry and general publications and surveys) included or reflected in this information statement is generally reliable, we have not independently verified any such third-party information and cannot assure you of its accuracy or completeness. While we are not aware of any misstatements regarding any third-party statements or industry data presented in this information statement, our estimates, particularly those relating to our general expectations concerning the equipment rental industry, involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward‑Looking Statements” in this information statement.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIN-OFF

What is the Spin-Off?

The Spin-Off is the method through which Hertz Holdings will separate its existing car rental and equipment rental businesses into two independent, publicly traded companies:


•	Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc., or “New Hertz,” consisting of Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business; and


•	HERC Holdings, Inc., or “HERC Holdings,” consisting of Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business.

In the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will distribute to its stockholders on a pro rata basis all the shares of New Hertz’s common stock. See “The Spin-Off.”

Why did Hertz Holdings send this information statement to me?

Hertz Holdings sent this information statement to you because you were a holder of Hertz Holdings common stock as of the close of business on [ ], 2016, the record date for the distribution, and as such are entitled to participate in the Spin-Off.

Why is Hertz Holdings separating New Hertz and HERC Holdings?

Hertz Holdings believes that the separation will allow each of New Hertz’s and HERC Holdings’ management teams to focus more directly on each business in order to create promising opportunities for growth and enhanced stockholder value, including managing certain differences in capital requirements, overall growth profiles and business cycles of each respective business. Further, the separation will eliminate any internal competition for capital between Hertz Holdings’ businesses, which we believe will enhance the growth opportunity for the businesses of New Hertz and HERC Holdings. As a result of the separation, New Hertz and HERC Holdings will be independent companies and as such will have direct access to the capital markets, which will enable each business to pursue equity and debt issuances on its own merits, the proceeds of which may be used to promote organic growth, invest in differentiating capabilities or pursue geographic expansion according to its particular business needs. In addition, each entity will have the ability to use its own equity to pursue strategic acquisitions. The separation also will allow investors to more effectively recognize the value of each business on a stand-alone basis. Finally, the separation also will make it easier for each of New Hertz and HERC Holdings to offer its key employees compensation directly linked to the performance of its business, including equity-based compensation, which we expect will enhance the ability of each of New Hertz and HERC Holdings to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

What actions will Hertz Holdings take in connection with the Spin-Off?

In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will undertake a series of internal reorganization transactions (sometimes referred to herein as the “internal reorganization”) so that New Hertz will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business, including Hertz, and HERC Holdings will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business, including HERC. In addition to this internal reorganization and in connection with the Spin-Off, it is expected that HERC, which is to be a wholly owned subsidiary of HERC Holdings following the Spin-Off, will transfer to Hertz and its subsidiaries approximately $[ ] billion. To fund, among other things, such transfers and in connection with the Spin-Off, HERC expects to enter into appropriate financing arrangements. In this information statement, we refer to these transactions as the “related financing transactions.”

The actual amount of cash transfers made to Hertz and its subsidiaries by HERC prior to or in connection with the Spin-Off will depend upon the financial performance and cash position of HERC prior to the Spin-Off, among other factors. Hertz expects to use the cash proceeds from these transfers to repay third-party indebtedness, to fund the share repurchase program previously announced and reaffirmed by Hertz Holdings and that New Hertz expects to adopt for periods following the Spin-Off, and for general corporate purposes.

Hertz Holdings (or a subsidiary thereof) and New Hertz (or a subsidiary thereof) will enter into a separation and distribution agreement, a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, a transition services agreement, an intellectual property agreement and certain real estate lease agreements, which will govern the relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings following the Spin-Off.

For further information concerning the transactions that are being effected in connection with the Spin-Off, see “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Separation and Distribution Agreement.”

What will the organizational structure of Hertz Holdings look like before and after the Spin-Off?

Below are diagrams depicting the basic organizational structure of Hertz Holdings before the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off and HERC Holdings and New Hertz after the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off:

Prior to the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off

*Prior to the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off, New Hertz conducts no operations.

Following the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off

*Newly formed entities for purposes of effecting the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off.

Are there any conditions to the Spin-Off being completed?

Hertz Holdings may decide not to complete the Spin-Off if, at any time prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings’ board of directors determines, in its sole discretion, that the Spin-Off is not in the best interests of Hertz Holdings or its stockholders. In addition, Hertz Holdings’ intention to complete the Spin-Off is contingent on the satisfaction of the conditions described below prior to the Spin-Off, any of which (other than those set forth in the fourth and fifth bullet points below) may be waived by Hertz Holdings:

•

The private letter ruling that Hertz Holdings received from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to the effect that, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, assumptions and covenants, (i) the Spin-Off qualifies as a tax-free transaction under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and (ii) the internal spin-off transactions (collectively with the Spin-Off, the “Spin-Offs”) and certain related transactions in connection with the Spin-Offs will be tax-free to the parties to those spin-offs and related transactions, shall not have been revoked or modified in any material respect;


•	Hertz Holdings’ receipt of the opinions of KPMG LLP and Debevoise & Plimpton LLP that the Spin-Offs will qualify as tax-free transactions under Section 355 of the Code, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, assumptions and covenants;


•	Hertz Holdings’ receipt of a written solvency opinion from a financial advisor acceptable to Hertz Holdings, which confirms the solvency and financial viability of Hertz Holdings before the consummation of the Spin-Off and each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz after the consummation of the Spin-Off and is in form and substance acceptable to Hertz Holdings;


•	the registration statement on Form 10 with respect to the registration of New Hertz common stock under the Exchange Act shall have become effective, and no stop order suspending such effectiveness shall be in effect;


•	all statutory requirements for the consummation of the Spin-Offs must have been satisfied, and no injunction, court order, law or regulation shall be in effect preventing the completion of the Spin-Offs;


•	HERC Holdings and New Hertz, or their respective subsidiaries, shall have entered into new credit agreements and other financial arrangements prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off;


•	the NYSE shall have approved the listing of New Hertz’s common stock; and


•	any material regulatory or contractual consents or approvals necessary for the Spin-Offs must have been obtained, without any conditions that would have a material adverse effect on HERC Holdings or New Hertz.

See “The Spin-Off—Conditions to the Spin-Off.”

What will I receive in the Spin-Off?

If all conditions to the Spin-Off are satisfied or waived by the board of directors of Hertz Holdings in its sole discretion, at the close of business on the distribution date, [ ], 2016, for each whole share of Hertz Holdings common stock held by you as of the record date, you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock. Because you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock for each share of Hertz Holdings common stock that you hold as of the record date, Hertz Holdings will not need to issue or pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares of New Hertz common stock.

What will happen to Hertz Holdings and my existing Hertz Holdings common stock as a result of the Spin-Off?

In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will be renamed “HERC Holdings, Inc.” (referred to herein as “HERC Holdings”), and will continue to operate our global equipment rental business through its operating subsidiaries, including HERC. Following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE, except that it will change the symbol for its common stock to “[ ].”

vii

between 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, inclusive, as determined by the board of directors. Based on discussions with our financial advisors, we believe the trading price of the common stock after the Spin-Off may be significantly lower than the current market price due to the fact that the rental car business will no longer be part of Hertz Holdings. In those circumstances, we believe the reverse stock split may make our common stock a more attractive investment for many investors, particularly investors who have limitations on owning lower-priced stocks. The implementation of the reverse stock split would be effective immediately following the Spin-Off. If the reverse stock split is implemented, the number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced in a proportional manner to the reverse stock split ratio.

Stockholders will not receive fractional shares in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, HERC Holdings’ transfer agent will aggregate all fractional shares and sell them as soon as practicable after the reverse stock split at the then-prevailing prices on the open market on behalf of those stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share. We expect that the transfer agent would conduct the sale in an orderly fashion at a reasonable pace and that it may take several days to sell all of the aggregated fractional shares of HERC Holdings common stock. After the transfer agent’s completion of such sale, stockholders would receive a cash payment from the transfer agent in an amount equal to their respective pro rata shares of the total net proceeds of that sale. No transaction costs will be assessed on stockholders for the cash payment. Stockholders will not be entitled to receive interest for the period of time between the effective time of the reverse stock split and the date payment is made for their fractional share interest in HERC Holdings common stock.

What is the accounting treatment of the Spin-Off?

Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off and will be the legal spinnee in the transaction, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of New Hertz will reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off HERC Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of HERC Holdings, including such information presented in this information statement, will reflect the financial information of the equipment rental business of Hertz Holdings as historically operated as part of the consolidated company, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented.

Will I be taxed on the shares of New Hertz common stock that I receive in the Spin-Off?

The receipt of shares of New Hertz common stock is expected to be tax-free to stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Offs.”

What do I have to do to participate in the Spin-Off?

Nothing, except own Hertz Holdings common stock as of the close of business on [ ], 2016, which is the record date for the Spin-Off. We intend to use a book-entry system to distribute shares of New Hertz common stock. This means that your ownership of New Hertz common stock will be recorded in the records maintained by Computershare Investor Services LLC, which is currently the transfer agent and registrar for Hertz Holdings common stock, and following the Spin-Off will be the transfer agent and registrar for both New Hertz and HERC Holdings common stock.

All of our stockholders hold their shares electronically in book-entry form. Therefore, no action is required on the part of any stockholder to receive their post-reverse stock split shares of HERC Holdings common stock or their cash payment in lieu of any fractional interest, if applicable.

When will the Spin-Off occur?

On which exchange will New Hertz and HERC Holdings common stock trade?

There is no current trading market for New Hertz common stock. We expect to list New Hertz common stock on the NYSE under the symbol “HTZ,” which is the current trading symbol for Hertz Holdings common stock. Following the Spin-

viii

Off, HERC Holdings common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE, but the symbol for its common stock will change to “[ ].” See “The Spin-Off—Listing and Trading of New Hertz and HERC Holdings Common Stock.”

When will I be able to buy and sell New Hertz common stock?

Regular way trading of New Hertz common stock will begin on [ ], 2016, which is the first trading day after the distribution date. We expect that a limited market, commonly known as a “when-issued” trading market, for New Hertz common stock will develop on or shortly before the record date. When-issued trading reflects the value at which the market expects the New Hertz common stock to trade after the Spin-Off. If when-issued trading develops, you will be able to buy and sell New Hertz common stock before the Spin-Off occurs. None of such trades, however, will settle until after the Spin-Off, when regular trading in New Hertz common stock will begin. If the Spin-Off does not occur, all when-issued trading will be null and void. If when-issued trading occurs, the listing for New Hertz common stock will be under a temporary trading symbol that is different from its regular way trading symbol and accompanied by the letters “wi.” See “The Spin-Off—Trading Between the Record Date and the Distribution Date.”

Will the New Hertz common stock distributed in the Spin-Off be freely tradable?

The shares of New Hertz common stock to be distributed in the Spin-Off will be freely tradable, except for shares received by persons that have a special relationship or affiliation with New Hertz. See “The Spin-Off—Listing and Trading of New Hertz and HERC Holdings Common Stock.”

What will be the relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings after the Spin-Off?

After the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will not own any New Hertz common stock, New Hertz will not own any HERC Holdings common stock and the two companies will be separate, independent public companies. In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings (or a subsidiary thereof) will enter into a number of agreements with New Hertz (or a subsidiary thereof), including:


•	a separation and distribution agreement;


•	a tax matters agreement;


•	an employee matters agreement;


•	a transition services agreement;


•	an intellectual property agreement; and


•	certain real estate lease agreements.

These agreements will outline the specifics of the internal reorganization and the Spin-Off and govern the ongoing relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings after the completion of the Spin-Off. See “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings.”

Will HERC Holdings continue to have the right to use the “Hertz” name after the Spin-Off?

As part of the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings and New Hertz will enter into an agreement, pursuant to which HERC Holdings will continue to have the right to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand for a period of four years on a no royalty basis, except that HERC Holdings may not directly or indirectly engage in the business of renting and leasing cars, subject to certain exceptions, including that HERC Holdings may continue to rent cars to the extent HERC has done so immediately prior to the Spin-Off.

Does HERC Holdings plan to pay dividends?

Hertz Holdings paid no cash dividends on its common stock in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 or the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. HERC Holdings does not expect to pay dividends on its common stock after the Spin-Off. Any decision to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors of HERC Holdings.

Are there risks associated with owning HERC Holdings common stock?

Yes. HERC Holdings’ global equipment rental business is subject to general and specific business risks. In addition, the Spin-Off transaction itself presents other risks to HERC Holdings, such as risks associated with HERC Holdings operating as an independent public company.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information from this information statement concerning New Hertz, HERC Holdings and the Spin-Off. More detailed discussions of the information summarized below are contained elsewhere in this information statement. You should read this entire information statement carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section and the historical financial statements and notes to those statements included elsewhere in this information statement.

The Spin-Off



Distributing and Distributed Entities	The Spin-Off is legally structured such that Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., or “Hertz Holdings,” which will be renamed “HERC Holdings, Inc.,” or “HERC Holdings,” in connection with the Spin-Off, is the distributing entity of all of the outstanding common stock of “Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc.,” or “New Hertz,” which is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hertz Holdings and will be renamed “Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.” in connection with the Spin-Off. After the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will not own any shares of New Hertz common stock, and New Hertz will not own any shares of HERC Holdings common stock.
Accounting Treatment of the Spin-Off	Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off and will be the legal spinnee in the transaction, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of New Hertz will reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off HERC Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of HERC Holdings, including such information presented in this information statement, will reflect the financial information of the equipment rental business of Hertz Holdings as historically operated as part of the consolidated company, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented. See “The Spin-Off—Accounting Treatment of the Spin-Off.”
Shares to Be Distributed	Approximately [ ] shares of New Hertz common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The shares of New Hertz common stock to be distributed will constitute all of the outstanding shares of New Hertz common stock immediately after the Spin-Off.
Distribution Ratio	One share of New Hertz common stock for each share of Hertz Holdings common stock that you hold as of the record date for the Spin-Off.
Record Date	The close of business on [ ], 2016.
Distribution Date	The close of business on [ ], 2016.
Distribution	At the distribution date, Computershare Investor Services LLC, which is currently the transfer agent and registrar for Hertz Holdings common stock, and following the Spin-Off will be the transfer agent and registrar for both New Hertz and HERC Holdings common stock, will distribute the shares of New Hertz common stock by crediting these shares to book-entry accounts established by such transfer agent and registrar for persons that were Hertz Holdings stockholders on the record date. You will not be required to make any payment or to surrender or exchange your Hertz Holdings common stock or take any other action to receive your shares of New Hertz common stock.



Reverse Stock Split	No vote of Hertz Holdings' stockholders is required to authorize or effectuate the Spin-Off. However, prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings intends to seek stockholder approval of a reverse stock split with a ratio equal to an integral ratio between 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, inclusive, as determined by the board of directors. Based on discussions with our financial advisors, we believe the trading price of the common stock after the Spin-Off may be significantly lower than the current market price due to the fact that the rental car business will no longer be part of Hertz Holdings. In those circumstances, we believe the reverse stock split may make our common stock a more attractive investment for many investors, particularly investors who have limitations on owning lower-priced stocks. The implementation of the reverse stock split would be effective immediately following the Spin-Off. If the reverse stock split is implemented, the number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced in a proportional manner to the reverse stock split ratio. Stockholders will not receive fractional shares in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, HERC Holdings' transfer agent will aggregate all fractional shares and sell them as soon as practicable after the reverse stock split at the then-prevailing prices on the open market on behalf of those stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share. We expect that the transfer agent would conduct the sale in an orderly fashion at a reasonable pace and that it may take several days to sell all of the aggregated fractional shares of HERC Holdings common stock. After the transfer agent's completion of such sale, stockholders would receive a cash payment from the transfer agent in an amount equal to their respective pro rata shares of the total net proceeds of that sale. No transaction costs will be assessed on the stockholders for the cash payment. Stockholders will not be entitled to receive interest for the period of time between the effective time of the reverse stock split and the date payment is made for their fractional share interest in HERC Holdings common stock. All of our stockholders hold their shares electronically in book-entry form. Therefore, no action is required on the part of any stockholder to receive their post-reverse stock split shares of HERC Holdings common stock or their cash payment in lieu of any fractional interest, if applicable.
Transfer Agent and Registrar	Computershare Investor Services LLC is currently the transfer agent and registrar for Hertz Holdings common stock, and following the Spin-Off will be the transfer agent and registrar for both New Hertz and HERC Holdings common stock.
NYSE Stock Exchange Symbol	There is no current trading market for New Hertz common stock. We expect to list New Hertz common stock on the NYSE under the symbol “HTZ,” which is the current trading symbol for Hertz Holdings common stock. Following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE, but the symbol for its common stock will change to “[ ].”
Trading Market	We expect when-issued trading for New Hertz common stock and ex-dividend trading for Hertz Holdings common stock to occur before the distribution date. See “The Spin-Off—Trading Between the Record Date and the Distribution Date.”
Risk Factors	The Spin-Off and ownership of HERC Holdings common stock involve various risks. See “Risk Factors.”
Tax Consequences	The receipt of shares of New Hertz common stock is expected to be tax-free to stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Offs.”
Trading of New Hertz common stock	The shares of New Hertz common stock to be distributed in the Spin-Off will be freely tradable, except for shares received by persons that have a special relationship or affiliation with New Hertz. See “The Spin-Off—Listing and Trading of New Hertz and HERC Holdings Common Stock.”



Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings After the Spin-Off	After the Spin-Off, New Hertz and HERC Holdings will be independent, publicly owned companies. Hertz Holdings or a subsidiary thereof and New Hertz or a subsidiary thereof will enter into a number of agreements to govern the relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings after the Spin-Off. See “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz.”
Outstanding Equity Award Treatment	In connection with the Spin-Off, holders of outstanding Hertz Holdings equity awards will receive replacement equity awards. All replacement awards will be denominated in the common stock of the equity award holder’s primary employer after (or, in the case of a former employee, before) the Spin-Off. In each case, the granting of such replacement awards will be effective contemporaneously with the Spin-Off and such replacement awards will be adjusted in accordance with a formula designed to preserve the intrinsic economic value of the original equity awards after taking into account the Spin-Off. See “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Employee Matters Agreement.” Equity awards to acquire shares of HERC Holdings common stock will be subject to further adjustment to take into account the reverse stock split for which Hertz Holdings intends to seek stockholder approval prior to the Spin-Off.
Anti-Takeover Effects with Respect to HERC Holdings	The certificate of incorporation and the by-laws of HERC Holdings will be the same as the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") and the Amended and Restated By-Laws (the "By-Laws") of Hertz Holdings. Prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings intends to amend the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws as described in more detail under "Description of Capital Stock." Certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws may make it more difficult to acquire control of HERC Holdings. These provisions may have the effect of discouraging a future takeover attempt not approved by HERC Holdings’ board of directors but which individual stockholders may deem to be in their best interests or in which stockholders may receive a substantial premium for their shares over then current market prices. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. See “Description of Capital Stock.”

Our Company

We are one of the largest equipment rental companies in the North American equipment rental industry, according to the Rental Equipment Register "RER", top 100 list. We have been in the equipment rental business since 1965 and operate our equipment rental business through the Hertz Equipment Rental brand from 280 company-operated branches, of which 270 are in the United States and Canada, and the remainder are located in the United Kingdom, China and through joint venture arrangements in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. In addition, HERC operates through 14 franchisee owned branches in Greece, Iceland, Portugal and Corsica in Europe, in Afghanistan in the Middle East, in Panama in Central America and in Chile in South America. On October 30, 2015, we finalized the sale of our operations in France and Spain which included 60 branches in France (other than Corsica) and two in Spain. Subsequent to the sale of these operations, we generate almost all of our equipment rental revenue in North America with approximately 1% of our equipment rental revenue driven by our remaining international operations.

We have longstanding relationships with many of our customers across diverse end markets, including large and small companies in the construction industry, industrial customers (such as large industrial plants, refineries and petrochemical operations, railroads and automotive enterprises), and other customers in more fragmented industries (such as governmental entities and government contractors, disaster recovery and remediation firms, utility operators, individual homeowners, entertainment production companies, agricultural producers and special event management firms). Set forth below is a chart showing our historical worldwide equipment rental revenue categorized by end markets we serve, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 (excluding revenues associated with the France and Spain operations which were sold on October 30, 2015).

We offer a broad portfolio of equipment for rent, including aerial, earthmoving, material handling and specialty equipment such as air compressors, compaction equipment, construction-related trucks, electrical equipment, power generators, contractor tools, pumps, and lighting, studio and production equipment. We have made meaningful investments in our equipment rental fleet resulting in an average fleet age of 43 months as of September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, our equipment rental fleet portfolio consisted of equipment with a total original equipment cost of $3.6 billion.

In addition to our principal business of equipment rental, we also:


•	sell used equipment;


•	sell contractor supplies such as construction consumables, tools, small equipment and safety supplies at many of our rental locations;


•	provide repair, maintenance and equipment management services to certain of our customers;


•	offer equipment re-rental services and provide on-site support to our customers;


•	provide ancillary services such as, equipment transport, cleaning, refueling and labor; and


•	sell certain brands of new equipment.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we had total revenues of approximately $1,255.8 million, $1,770.4 million, $1,735.6 million and $1,608.3 million, net income of approximately $33.1 million, $89.7 million, $98.1 million and $61.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $436.8 million, $649.6 million, $680.5 million and $562.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 our same-store revenue growth was flat, but for the year ended December 31, 2014 our same-store revenue growth was 5.0%. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is defined and reconciled to its most comparable GAAP measure in the section of this information statement entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data."

Industry Overview

The equipment rental industry serves a diverse group of customers from individuals to small local contractors to large national and industrial accounts encompassing a wide variety of rental equipment including heavy equipment, specialty equipment and contractor tools. Subsequent to the sale of our operations in France and Spain on October 30, 2015, almost all of our equipment rental revenue is generated in North America with approximately 1% of our equipment rental revenue generated through our remaining international operations. The equipment rental industry is highly fragmented with few national competitors and many regional and local operators. We believe, based on market and industry revenue data, that we are one of the leading companies (together with United Rentals, Inc. and Ashtead Group plc’s Sunbelt Rentals brand) in the North American equipment rental industry. A number of the industry's competitors focus on a subset of equipment rental offerings, making the overall industry fragmented with respect to types of equipment offered, services provided and geographic locations from which such equipment is offered.

The growth of the North American equipment rental industry is driven by a number of factors including economic trends, non-residential construction activity, capital investment in the industrial sector, repair and overhaul spending, government spending and demand for construction and other rental equipment generally. We believe that renters have increasingly looked to the equipment rental market to manage their capital needs, with many customers relying on equipment rental to allow them to participate in their respective markets without incurring the significant acquisition cost and maintenance expense associated with owning their own equipment fleet. We believe the trends that have driven rental instead of ownership of equipment in the North American construction industry will continue in the near term. We believe that the North American equipment rental industry is expected to grow at a 7.5% compound annual growth rate between 2015 and 2019.

The principal end markets we serve, based on our customers’ Standard Industrial Classification (“SIC”) codes, consist of the following:

•

Construction – Our construction rental operations serve large and small companies in the construction industry, and principally the non-residential construction industry. Non-residential construction consists primarily of private sector rentals relating to the construction, maintenance, and remodeling of commercial facilities. According to Dodge Data & Analytics, U.S. non-residential construction spending grew at an annual rate of approximately 7% in 2015 and is estimated to grow at an annual rate of 11% in 2016. We believe that key drivers of growth within this end market include increased levels of construction starts and construction-related loans among other factors. Construction represented approximately 38% of our equipment rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014.


•	Industrial – Our industrial rental operations serve renters across a broad range of industries, including large industrial plants, refineries and petrochemical operations, industrial manufacturing, power, pulp, paper and wood and other industrial verticals. According to Industrial Info Resources, spending in the U.S. industrial sector grew at an annual

rate of approximately 6% in 2015 and is estimated to grow at an annual rate of 5% in 2016. We believe that key drivers of growth within this end market include increased levels of spending on industrial capital, maintenance, repairs and overhaul. Industrial represented approximately 26% of our equipment rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014.

•

Other Customers – In addition to the specific markets cited above, we service a variety of other customers across a diverse group of industries, including governmental entities and government contractors, disaster recovery and remediation firms, utility operators, infrastructure, railroad, individual homeowners, entertainment production companies, agricultural producers and special event management firms, which represented in total approximately 36% of our equipment rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014. We believe that the government-related and entertainment production submarkets discussed below are key industries within this diverse customer group.


o	Government-Related – Government-related revenue consists of rentals to federal, state and local governments and contractors working directly on government projects.


o	Entertainment Production – Our equipment rental operations serve the motion picture and television production industries through the rental of grip and lighting equipment, quiet power generators, boomlifts, forklifts and platform lifts.

Our Competitive Strengths

A Market Leader in North America with Significant Scale and Broad Footprint

We believe we are one of the largest equipment rental companies in the North American equipment rental industry, with 270 company-operated branches in 42 states in the United States and 10 provinces in Canada. Our scale compared to most of our competitors provides us with a number of significant competitive advantages including:


•	highly experienced executive management team with extensive domain knowledge;


•	a comprehensive line of equipment and services, allowing us to be a single-source solution serving all of our customer needs;


•	the ability to provide premium brands and a wide range of products that are reliable and meet all the necessary regulations;


•	a consistent, reliable supply of rental equipment in stock across our locations and the ability to redeploy equipment across locations to meet evolving customer needs;


•	an increasing portfolio of specialty equipment that expands our reach and capabilities;


•	a geographic footprint that allows us to maintain proximity to our customers in the local markets as well as serve national and industrial accounts who have geographically dispersed equipment rental needs and in a number of cases prefer to do business with large operators who can broadly service their equipment rental needs;


•	favorable purchasing power or volume discount pricing opportunities on material and equipment purchased from our suppliers;


•	operational cost efficiencies across our organization, including with respect to purchasing, information technology, back-office support and marketing;


•	economies of scale that enable fast response to customer equipment rental needs;


•	a national sales force with significant expertise across our equipment fleet; and


•	local expertise for servicing our clients and offering solutions.

Since the North American equipment rental industry is highly fragmented, with very few national competitors, we believe that the majority of our competitors do not enjoy these same advantages.

Diverse End Market Business Mix and Exposure to a Variety of Specialty and High Growth Rental Markets

We provide equipment rental services to a wide variety of large markets, including the residential and non-residential construction, general industrial, energy, transportation and government markets. In recent years, we have diversified our rental portfolio by expanding our offerings in niche and specialty markets, both through organic growth and through the acquisition of established industry participants in key locations. Since 2009, we have completed 11 acquisitions to strengthen our position in a variety of diverse rental markets, including the broader industrial market, and the specialty markets such as the motion picture and television production industries. As a result of these strategic investments in ancillary areas of equipment rental and services, our business has become more balanced. We believe that this more balanced portfolio is important because it provides us with a diversification away from our historical reliance on the more seasonal and cyclical construction industry, toward industries which experience business cycles that may vary in intensity and duration from that of the general economy. We anticipate that specialty markets can grow faster than the general economy, and tend to be less cyclical. We believe this diversification serves to differentiate us from our competitors and positions us to take advantage of any expected increase in demand for more specialized rental solutions. We also are not overly reliant on any single customer with no single customer accounting for more than 3% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014.

Strong National and Industrial Accounts Capabilities

We believe that we have significant capabilities to serve both national and industrial customer sectors. Through these customer relationship programs, our respective national and industrial accounts sales teams serve and attempt to expand and further penetrate existing relationships with our national accounts and larger industrial customers by providing a single point of contact for their equipment rental needs. This enables HERC to be a full end-to-end solutions provider in addition to a provider of rental equipment. These longstanding customer relationship programs enable us to take advantage of longer rental terms for much of our equipment, with many of our larger customers leasing equipment from us on a monthly or yearly basis, for use in large and/or complex ongoing projects. These projects provide a number of additional benefits, including recurring revenue, attractive credit profiles, improved fleet utilization and enhanced presence in new markets.

Range of Value-Added Services

We offer a total rental solution that provides a suite of customer-focused services. These services include equipment transport, fleet management and telematics, power solutions, on-site services and customized advice, engineered solutions, re-rental options, and parts and supplies sales. This combination of services is designed to offer comprehensive value-added solutions to our customers that complement and enhance the rental equipment we offer.

Superior Customer Service

HERC has a well-established reputation for superior customer service, which has been a competitive differentiator for us throughout our history. Senior management remains focused on maintaining a customer service focused culture. We spend significant time and resources training our personnel to effectively meet the demands of our customers. We believe that these customer initiatives help support our pricing strategy and foster customer loyalty.

Large, Diverse and High-Quality Equipment Fleet

Our equipment fleet represents a significant investment and our commitment to providing the most dependable rental experience to our customers across a variety of industries, including our local, national, industrial and specialty markets. As of September 30, 2015, our equipment rental fleet portfolio consisted of a total original equipment cost of $3.6 billion.

Our broad array of equipment includes aerial, earthmoving, material handling and specialty equipment such as air compressors, compaction equipment, construction-related trucks, electrical equipment, power generators, contractor tools, pumps, and lighting, studio and production equipment as well as other niche or specialty products. Our extensive and high-quality rental fleet provides us with the ability to serve a diverse customer base that requires large quantities and/or varied types of equipment for rent, as we are more likely to have the right equipment and total number of units needed at the right location in order to meet our customer requirements.

Experienced Executive and Senior Leadership Team Focused on Excellence in Our Core Equipment Rental Operations

We have assembled an experienced executive and senior leadership team committed to maintaining operational excellence. Our executive and senior leadership team has extensive knowledge of all aspects of the equipment rental and heavy equipment industries, particularly in our core North American operations. Our senior leadership team is made up of executives who have an average of approximately 18 years of experience in the equipment rental and heavy equipment industries. Beyond the senior leadership team, we have talented, experienced sales, operations, service and finance professionals. Our executive and senior leadership team is dedicated to offering our customers a quality rental experience and is committed to further improving our performance capabilities through evaluating and effectively utilizing resources at each level of our organization.

Disciplined Fleet Management, Procurement and Disposal Process

We manage our equipment rental fleet using a life cycle approach designed to optimize the timing of fleet purchasing, repair and maintenance and disposal, while at the same time satisfying our customer demand. In particular, we use standardized business systems in our operations to track utilization and facilitate the fluid transfer of our fleet among regions to adjust to local customer demand, including throughout our entire network. Our pricing system allows us to generate real time rate guidance and adjust pricing across the various markets in which we operate. Through continued use and development of our disciplined approach to efficient fleet management, we seek to maximize our utilization and return on investment.

We routinely sell our used rental equipment in order to manage repair and maintenance costs, as well as the composition, age and size of our fleet. We dispose of our used equipment through a variety of channels, including private sales to customers and other third parties, sales to wholesalers, brokered sales and auctions. Our website includes a catalog of equipment for sale to third parties. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we sold our used rental equipment as follows: approximately 54% through retail, 27% through sales to wholesalers and 19% through sales at auction. Historically, we have realized a greater return on capital through private sales and sales to wholesalers, as opposed to brokered sales and auctions.

Geographic Footprint

We have 280 company-operated branches in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and China and through joint venture arrangements in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. We also have a presence in 8 countries through our 14 international franchisee-operated branches. We continue to update our locations with our proprietary HERC systems designed to enhance associate productivity and improve fleet utilization.

Our geographic footprint, as well as the use of standardized business systems in our operations, provides us with several benefits, including:


•	the ability to meet the needs of large multi-location customers who would like to be serviced on a multi-national basis;


•	leveraging our fleet spend across a larger base and generating used fleet disposal opportunities;


•	the ability to utilize our business processes, systems and core competencies to drive value for our franchisees and ultimately our customers in foreign markets;


•	the opportunity to reduce the variability of local economic conditions on our overall financial performance; and


•	the platform to optimize operational efficiency.

Strong Brand Recognition

Prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, our primary operating subsidiary, HERC, operated under the name “Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation,” in addition to operating under the “HERC” name. We believe the association with Hertz has contributed to our building relationships with our customers due to Hertz’s globally recognized brand and perceived high-quality car and equipment rental products. As part of the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings and New Hertz will enter into an agreement, pursuant to which HERC Holdings will continue to have the right to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand for a period of four years on a no royalty basis, except that HERC Holdings may not directly or indirectly engage in the business of renting and leasing cars, subject to certain exceptions, including that HERC Holdings may continue to rent cars to the extent HERC has done so immediately prior to the Spin-Off.

Our Strategy

Pursue Opportunities Through Organic Revenue Growth, Diversified Specialty Equipment, Optimizing Existing Markets and Targeted Strategic Bolt-On Acquisitions

We believe that opportunities for expansion exist through organic same store growth, expanding our presence in existing targeted markets, diversifying our equipment offering for higher returns and the acquisition of smaller competitors, particularly in light of the fragmented nature of the equipment rental industry and a long-term trend toward increased rental penetration in many of the markets in which we participate. We have organized our growth strategy to pursue these internal growth initiatives and the acquisition of smaller competitors.

Within the markets we currently serve, we intend to grow our same store sales by investing in a high quality and diverse equipment rental fleet and by providing market leading customer service and value-added service offerings. We believe that maintaining high quality and comprehensive lines of equipment differentiates our equipment rental offerings from many of our competitors and we plan to continue to invest in our asset base. In addition, our strong value-added service offerings, such as equipment transport, fleet management and telematics, power solutions, on-site services and customized advice, engineered solutions, re-rental options and used and new equipment sales, provide us with an integrated equipment services platform through which we are able to address substantially all of our customers’ needs and we intend to continue to develop these offerings. We also intend to continue to drive efficiencies through process-oriented initiatives that allow us to increase equipment utilization, reduce operating costs and free up available investment resources.

We intend to continue our strategy of selectively expanding the scope of our operations through the opening of new locations in existing markets that will provide added operating leverage. We will continue to diversify our rental portfolio by pursuing focused market growth into a variety of niche rental markets, including restoration, remediation, HVAC and disaster recovery, expanding across all construction and industrial verticals, as well as various specialty markets, in a variety of geographic locations. We also will look to add new locations in those markets and geographic locations that offer attractive growth opportunities, especially targeting local customers and specialty markets. We believe the North American market presents significant potential for growth, but we also plan to continue efforts to expand our international business by opening new company-operated joint venture and franchise locations, especially when we have opportunities to serve major North American customers. At the same time, we will monitor and from time to time exit non-core, non-strategic operations, as we have done with the divestiture of our operations in France and Spain.

Our strategic acquisitions have allowed us to strengthen our position in a variety of specialty rental markets and have given us experience in evaluating, consummating and integrating strategic acquisitions. By acquiring certain bolt-on businesses we have the opportunity to expand our existing geographic footprint to better serve large multi-location customers. In addition, we believe that we can further improve our mix of rental revenue in order to create a customer portfolio that is less susceptible to industry-specific cycles, is more geographically diverse, and is better positioned to facilitate sustainable earnings growth.

Maintain and Strengthen Our National and Industrial Accounts Programs

As we continue efforts to stimulate organic growth, we plan to strengthen our national accounts and industrial accounts programs. We will continue to target the optimal customer mix that enables HERC to be one of a small number of rental companies that have the resources to service large customer needs and provide innovative business solutions. We also intend to emphasize strategic account management as we work to gain a greater share of the overall equipment rental spending of our existing customers in the national and industrial accounts sectors.

Leverage and Expand Our Footprint

HERC has one of the largest footprints in a fragmented industry. With 270 strategically located company-operated branches in the United States and Canada our base of operations will allow HERC to strategically expand in existing North American markets providing further opportunities to expand our small to mid-size customer base while simultaneously providing additional operational efficiencies from economies of scale. We believe that we have opportunities in several markets to expand our presence, increase our geographic density and generate organic growth.

Use Customer-Facing Technology to Increase Customer Satisfaction and Improve Efficiency

Our advanced telematics and GPS-enabled platforms enable our customers to increase utilization and control their overall costs. Through our Hertz e-Services Program (“e-SP”) we have offered our customers an easy-to-use and personalized platform to

improve the management of their equipment rental accounts and provide real-time information about all of their equipment rental usage. These platforms are an integral part of our suite of services, which is designed to provide our customers with a true end-to-end solution for renting, tracking, managing, maintaining and customizing their rental equipment needs and thereby increase customer satisfaction.

We also leverage technology to improve the efficiency of our operations. Our modeling software helps us to forecast demand as well as push real-time pricing intelligence to our experienced sales team. We are rolling out mobile application-based solutions to enable point of sale expansion, increase the speed at which we fulfill customer orders and increase customer satisfaction. We are also in the process of consolidating our information technology functions common to our branches, which will reduce costs and improve efficiency. These and other process initiatives allow us to better manage our fleet, improve customer service, increase equipment utilization and provide us with an opportunity to achieve higher profitability and return on capital.

Develop Our Employees, Foster Organizational Excellence and Continue to Drive Our Culture of Safety

Our management team’s leadership philosophy is centered around developing employees who are committed to our goals of being one of the world’s leading equipment rental companies. By attracting, retaining and developing our workforce and using programs to drive organizational and operational excellence, including continuous improvement strategies, we can develop leaders at every level of our business.

We are dedicated to providing training and development opportunities to our employees. We develop our employees’ skills through training programs focused on, among other things, safety, sales, leadership training and equipment-related training.

Our sales training programs are tailored to develop a sales force that is able to address the particular needs of the various categories of our customer base, such as customers in the construction, industrial, governmental and the more specialized industries that we serve. With respect to particularly large, complex or challenging projects, we develop curricula based on that specific project so that the employees involved are better able to meet the expectations of our customer. Our training programs address critical issues of workplace safety for our employees and customers. This promotes the protection of our employees and assets, as well as our protection from liability for accidental loss or employee injury.

Actions in Connection with the Spin-Off

Prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will undertake a series of internal reorganization transactions (sometimes referred to herein as the “internal reorganization”) so that New Hertz will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business, including Hertz, and HERC Holdings will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business, including HERC. In addition to this internal reorganization and in connection with the Spin-Off, it is expected that HERC, which is to be a wholly owned subsidiary of HERC Holdings following the Spin-Off, will transfer to Hertz and its subsidiaries approximately $[ ] billion. To fund, among other things, such transfers and in connection with the Spin-Off, HERC expects to enter into appropriate financing arrangements. In this information statement, we refer to these transactions as the “related financing transactions.”

The expected amounts of cash transfers to be made to Hertz and its subsidiaries by HERC were determined based on a review of historical cash flows, and the near-term and medium-term expected cash flows of New Hertz and HERC Holdings subsequent to the Spin-Off, and are intended to ensure that each of New Hertz and HERC Holdings is adequately capitalized and has the appropriate level of cash resources at the time of the Spin-Off. The actual amounts of cash transfers made to Hertz and its subsidiaries by HERC prior to or in connection with the Spin-Off will depend upon the financial performance and cash position of HERC prior to the Spin-Off, among other factors. Hertz expects to use the cash proceeds from these transfers to repay third-party indebtedness, to fund the share repurchase program previously announced and reaffirmed by Hertz Holdings and that New Hertz expects to adopt for periods following the Spin-Off, and for general corporate purposes.

Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings


•	a separation and distribution agreement;


•	a tax matters agreement;


•	an employee matters agreement;


•	a transition services agreement;


•	an intellectual property agreement; and


•	certain real estate lease agreements.

These agreements will outline the specifics of the Spin-Off and govern the ongoing relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings after the completion of the Spin-Off. For a more complete description of the terms of these agreements, see “Relationship between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz.”

Risk Factors

Investing in or maintaining your investment in HERC Holdings common stock involves a high degree of risk. There are numerous risks related to (i) our business, including risks related to the industries in which we operate, (ii) our substantial indebtedness that we expect to incur in connection with the Spin-Off, and (iii) the Spin-Off and our separation from New Hertz, including risks related to our ability to operate as a stand-alone public company.

Summary Historical Combined Financial Data of HERC Holdings

The following tables present selected combined financial information and other data for HERC Holdings’ business. The selected combined statement of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, and the selected combined balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 presented below were derived from our audited annual combined financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. The selected combined statement of operations data for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the selected combined balance sheet data as of September 30, 2015 presented below were derived from our unaudited interim combined financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. The selected combined balance sheet data as of September 30, 2014 (unaudited) and December 31, 2012 were derived from condensed combined financial statements not included herein.

As such, our historical combined financial statements have been prepared on a stand-alone basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and are derived from Hertz Holdings’ consolidated financial statements and accounting records using the historical results of operations and assets and liabilities attributed to the equipment rental operations, and include allocations of expenses from Hertz Holdings. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of HERC Holdings’ results in any future period and do not necessarily reflect what the financial position and results of operations of the equipment rental business would have been had HERC Holdings operated as a stand-alone public company during the periods presented, including changes that will occur as a result of or in connection with the Spin-Off.

The combined financial statements include net interest expense on loans receivable from and payable to affiliates and expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically performed by Hertz, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, employee benefits and incentives, insurance and stock-based compensation. These expenses have been allocated to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues, operating expenses, headcount or other relevant measures. The provision for income taxes has been prepared on a separate return basis. Management believes the assumptions underlying the combined financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from Hertz, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the combined financial statements may not include all of the expenses that would have been incurred had we been a stand-alone company during the years presented and may not reflect our combined financial position, results of operations and cash flows had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. Actual costs that would have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.

You should read the following information in conjunction with the section of this information statement entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and unaudited interim and audited annual combined financial statements and the respective related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement.

Summary Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Data of HERC Holdings

RISK FACTORS

Investing in or maintaining your investment in HERC Holdings common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of the risks and uncertainties set forth below as well as the other information contained in this information statement before deciding to invest in our common stock. Any of the following risks and uncertainties could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows; however, the following risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties facing us and it is possible that other risks and uncertainties might significantly impact us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or those we currently view to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows. In such a case, the market price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your original investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business is cyclical and a slowdown in worldwide economic conditions or adverse changes in the economic factors specific to the industries in which we operate, such as a decrease in expected levels of infrastructure spending or a decrease in the expected levels of rental versus ownership of equipment, could have adverse effects on our liquidity, cash flows and results of operations.

A substantial portion of our revenues are derived from the rental of equipment in the non-residential construction and industrial end markets, which are cyclical in nature. Our industry experienced a decline in construction and industrial activity as a result of the economic downturn that commenced in the latter part of 2008 and continued through 2010. The weakness in our end markets led to a decrease in the demand for our rental equipment and intensifying price competition from other equipment rental industry participants. In addition, other industries in which we operate, such as the oil and gas industry and the entertainment industry, may be subject to different factors and economic cycles that could have an effect on demand for our products and services within those industries. Recently, declines in oil prices have led to a significant slowdown in activity in the oil and gas industry, which has negatively affected our rentals to participants in this industry. While many areas of the global economy are improving, a slowdown in the economic recovery or worsening of economic conditions, in particular with respect to North American construction and industrial activities, could have an effect on demand for our products and services within those industries and ultimately could adversely affect our revenues and operating results.

The following factors, among others, may cause weakness in our end markets, either temporarily or long-term:


•	a decrease in expected levels of infrastructure spending;


•	a decrease in the expected levels of rental versus ownership of equipment;


•	a lack of availability of credit;


•	an increase in the cost of construction materials;


•	an increase in interest rates;


•	adverse weather conditions, which may temporarily affect a particular region; or


•	terrorism or hostilities involving the United States, Canada, or international markets.

We face intense competition that may lead to downward pricing or an inability to increase prices.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive. Competitive factors in our industry include the importance of customer loyalty, changes in market penetration, increased price competition, the introduction of new equipment, services and technology by existing and new competitors, changes in marketing, product diversity, sales and distribution capabilities and the ability to supply equipment and services to customers in a timely predictable manner. In addition, because we do not have multi-year contractual arrangements with many of our customers, these competitive factors could cause our customers to cease renting our equipment and shift suppliers. The equipment rental market is often highly fragmented, and we believe that price is one of the primary competitive factors in the equipment rental market. The internet has enabled cost-conscious customers to more easily compare rates available from rental companies. If we try to increase our pricing, our competitors, some of whom may have greater resources and better access to capital or lower fixed operating costs, may seek to compete aggressively on the basis of pricing. In addition, our competitors may reduce prices in order to attempt to gain a competitive advantage, capture market share or compensate for declines in rental activity. To the extent we do not match or remain within

a reasonable competitive margin of our competitors’ pricing, our revenues and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If competitive pressures lead us to match any of our competitors’ downward pricing and we are not able to reduce our operating costs, then our margins, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted. Additionally, our business may be affected by changes in technology that impact the competitive environment and we could be further affected if we are not able to adjust the size of our rental fleet in response to changes in demand, whether such changes are due to competition or otherwise. See the section entitled “Business—Competition” in this information statement.

A decline in our relations with our key national account or industrial account customers or the amount of equipment they rent from us could materially adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations, prospects and cash flows.

Our business depends on our ability to maintain positive relations with our key customers. Although we have established and maintain significant long-term relationships with our key national and industrial customers, we cannot assure you that all of these relationships will continue or will not diminish in some manner. In addition, we generally do not enter into multi-year contracts with our customers, and they generally do not have an obligation to rent our equipment from us. The loss of, or a diminution in, our relationship with any of our key customers could have a material adverse effect on us. Also, revenue from customers that have accounted for significant revenue in past periods, individually or as a group, may not continue in future periods or, if continued, may not reach or exceed historical levels in any period. Further, we have no operational or financial control over our customers and have limited influence over how they conduct their businesses. If any of these customers fail to remain competitive in their respective markets or encounter financial or operational problems, our revenue and profitability may decline.

Equipment rental, especially in the construction industry, is generally a seasonal business and any occurrence that disrupts rental activity during our peak periods could materially adversely affect our liquidity, cash flows and results of operations.

Certain significant components of our expenses are fixed in the short-term, including real estate taxes, rent, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other facility-related expenses, the costs of operating our information technology systems and minimum staffing costs. Seasonal changes in our revenues do not alter those fixed expenses, typically resulting in higher profitability in periods when our revenues are higher, and lower profitability in periods when our revenues are lower. Our equipment rental business, especially in the construction industry, has historically experienced decreased levels of business from December until late spring and heightened activity during our third and fourth quarter until December. Any occurrence that disrupts rental activity during this period of heightened activity could have a disproportionately material adverse effect on our liquidity, cash flows and results of operations.

If we are unable to purchase adequate supplies of competitively priced equipment or the cost of the equipment we purchase increases, our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

Reduced or limited supplies of equipment together with increased prices are risks that we face in our equipment rental business. The cost of new equipment could increase due to increased material costs for our suppliers or other factors beyond our control. Furthermore, changes in customer demand for particular types or brands of equipment that we buy could cause certain of our existing equipment to become obsolete or less favored by our customers and require us to purchase new equipment. If we are unable to obtain an adequate supply of equipment, or if we obtain less favorable pricing and other terms when we acquire equipment and are unable to pass on any increased costs to our customers, then our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

If we are unable to collect on contracts with customers, our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

One of the reasons some of our customers find it more attractive to rent equipment than to own that equipment is the need to deploy their capital elsewhere. This has been particularly true in industries with high growth rates such as the construction industry. However, some of our customers may have liquidity issues and ultimately may not be able to fulfill the terms of their rental agreements with us. We are exposed to the credit risk of our customers, and their failure to meet their financial obligations when due because of their bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons could result in decreased sales and earnings for us. If we are unable to manage credit risk issues adequately, or if a large number of customers should have financial difficulties at the same time, our credit losses could increase above historical levels and our

financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. Further, delinquencies and credit losses generally would be expected to increase if there was a slowdown in the economic recovery or worsening of economic conditions.

The restatement of Hertz Holdings’ previously issued financial statements has been time-consuming and expensive and could expose us to additional risks that could materially adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

During the preparation of Hertz Holdings’ Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2014, misstatements were identified in Hertz Holdings’ previous financial statements relating to the capitalization and timing of depreciation for certain non-fleet assets, allowances for doubtful accounts in Brazil, as well as other items. These misstatements, in combination with misstatements previously identified in the revision included in Hertz Holdings’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, ultimately resulted in the Audit Committee of Hertz Holdings’ Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”), in consultation with Hertz Holdings’ management, concluding that Hertz Holdings’ financial statements for 2011, 2012 and 2013 should no longer be relied upon and would require restatement. In addition, commencing in June 2014, an internal investigation of certain matters related to the accounting during prior periods was undertaken at the direction of the Audit Committee by outside counsel, along with independent counsel for the Audit Committee. Based on the internal investigation, Hertz Holdings’ review of its financial records, and other work completed by Hertz Holdings’ management, the Audit Committee concluded that there were material weaknesses in Hertz Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting that contributed to the material misstatements in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 consolidated financial statements, some of which were in accounts related to the equipment rental business. For further information regarding Hertz Holdings’ restatements and material weaknesses, please see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" and Note 2, “Restatement” to the Notes to Hertz Holdings’ consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, which are incorporated by reference into New Hertz’s registration statement on Form 10. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

These restatements, and the misstatements that necessitated Hertz Holdings’ review of its financial statements, have been time-consuming and expensive and could expose us to a number of additional risks that could materially adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In particular, Hertz Holdings incurred, and continues to incur, significant expenses, including audit, legal, consulting and other professional fees and lender and noteholder consent fees, in connection with the restatement of its previously issued financial statements and the ongoing remediation of weaknesses in Hertz Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting. Hertz Holdings has taken a number of steps, including adding significant internal resources and implementing a number of additional procedures, in order to strengthen the accounting function of the consolidated enterprise and attempt to reduce the risk of additional misstatements in its financial statements. In connection with the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will inherit certain infrastructure and systems of Hertz Holdings and will receive certain transition services from New Hertz pursuant to the transition services agreement related to HERC Holdings’ internal accounting and finance functions, which will impact HERC Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting. To the extent the remediation of the material weaknesses in Hertz Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting is not complete prior to the Spin-Off, we could be forced to incur additional time and expense to remediate any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

Hertz Holdings is also subject to a number of claims, investigations and proceedings arising out of the misstatements in its financial statements, including investigations by the New York Regional Office of the SEC and a state securities regulator. See “The restatement of Hertz Holdings' previously issued financial results has resulted in government investigations, books and records demands and private litigation and could result in government enforcement actions and private litigation that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows.”

Hertz Holdings has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. HERC Holdings identified similar material weaknesses and, if not remediated prior to the Spin-Off, may adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our common stock.

Hertz Holdings’ management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over its financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. During 2014 management identified material weaknesses in Hertz Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting.

As a result of the material weaknesses, Hertz Holdings’ management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2014. The assessment was based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. Hertz Holdings is actively engaged in remediation activities to address the material weaknesses. In connection with the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will inherit certain infrastructure and systems of Hertz Holdings and will receive certain transition services from New Hertz pursuant to the transition services agreement related to HERC Holdings’ internal accounting and finance functions, which will impact HERC Holdings’ internal control over financial reporting. If Hertz Holdings’ remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weaknesses prior to the Spin-Off, our internal control over financial reporting may continue to have material weaknesses. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Internal Control Over Financial Reporting." In addition, we may identify additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control following the Spin-Off. Any of these occurrences may materially adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner. If we are unable to report our results in a timely and accurate manner, we may not be able to comply with the applicable covenants in our financing arrangements, and may be required to seek waivers or repay amounts under these financing arrangements earlier than anticipated, which could adversely impact our liquidity and financial condition. Although we will review and evaluate internal control systems to allow management to report on the sufficiency of our internal controls, we cannot assure you that we will not discover weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we identify one or more material weaknesses, we may be unable to assert that our internal controls are effective. If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which would have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock and possibly impact our ability to obtain future financing on acceptable terms. We also may lose assets if we do not maintain adequate internal controls.

The restatement of Hertz Holdings’ previously issued financial results has resulted in government investigations, books and records demands, and private litigation and could result in government enforcement actions and private litigation that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows.

Hertz Holdings has become subject to securities class action litigation relating to certain of its public disclosures. In addition, the New York Regional Office of the SEC and a state securities regulator are currently investigating the events disclosed in certain of its filings with the SEC. Hertz Holdings has already expended and expects to continue to expend significant resources investigating the claims underlying and defending this litigation and responding to the demands and investigations. HERC Holdings, as the legal successor to Hertz Holdings, will continue to be subject to any such proceedings following the Spin-Off. Moreover, following the Spin-Off, we could become subject to private litigation or investigations, or one or more government enforcement actions, arising out of the misstatements in Hertz Holdings’ previously issued financial statements. While New Hertz and HERC Holdings intend to share any ultimate liability arising from proceedings of this nature pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, we cannot estimate the potential exposure in these matters at this time, and such proceedings may require significant time and attention of our management and have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows. See “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings-Agreements between New Hertz and HERC Holdings-Separation and Distribution Agreement-Sharing of Certain Liabilities. For additional discussion of these matters, see Note 13—Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments, to the Notes to our combined financial statements included elsewhere in this information statement.

We have oral agreements with some of our suppliers of new equipment for sale and these suppliers may appoint additional distributors, sell directly to our customers, rent directly to our customers or unilaterally terminate our distribution agreements, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows due to a reduction of, or inability to increase, our revenues from such operations.

We are a buyer and reseller of new equipment, parts and contractor supplies by leading, nationally-known original equipment manufacturers. We have both written and oral distribution agreements with suppliers of new equipment for sale. Under our oral agreements with these suppliers, we operate under our established course of dealing with the supplier and are subject to the applicable state law regarding such relationship. In most instances, the suppliers may appoint additional distributors, elect to sell to customers directly or unilaterally terminate their distribution agreements with us at any time without cause. Any such actions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows due to a reduction of, or an inability to increase, our revenues from these operations.

Our equipment rental fleet is subject to residual value risk upon disposition, and may not sell at the prices we expect.

The market value of our equipment at the time of its disposition could be less than its estimated residual value or its depreciated value at such time. A number of factors could affect the value received upon disposition of our equipment, including:


•	the market price for similar new equipment;


•	wear and tear on the equipment relative to its age and the performance of preventive maintenance;


•	the time of year that it is sold;


•	the supply of used equipment relative to the demand for used equipment, including as a result of changes in economic conditions or conditions in the markets that we serve; and


•	the existence and capacities of different sales outlets and our ability to develop and maintain different types of sales outlets.

Because we include in income from operations the difference between the sales price and the depreciated value of an item of equipment sold, a sale of equipment below its depreciated value could adversely affect our income from operations. Accordingly, our ability to reduce the size of our equipment rental fleet in the event of an economic downturn or to respond to changes in rental demand is subject to the risk of loss based on the residual value of rental equipment.

We incur maintenance and repair costs associated with our equipment rental fleet that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows in the event these costs are greater than anticipated.

As our fleet of rental equipment ages, the cost of maintaining such equipment, if not replaced within a certain period of time, and the risk of fleet equipment being out of service generally increase. Determining the optimal age at disposition for our rental equipment is subjective and requires considerable estimates by management. We have made estimates regarding the relationship between the age of our rental equipment, the maintenance and repair costs, the availability of our fleet and the market value of used equipment. If maintenance and repair costs are higher than estimated or in-service times or market values of used equipment are lower than estimated, our future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows could be adversely affected.

We may not be successful with implementing our strategy of further reducing operating costs and our cost reduction initiatives may have adverse consequences.

We are continuing to implement initiatives to reduce our operating expenses. These initiatives may include headcount reductions, business process outsourcing, business process re-engineering, internal reorganization and other expense controls. We cannot assure you that our cost reduction initiatives will achieve any further success. Whether or not successful, our cost reduction initiatives involve significant expenses and we expect to incur further expenses associated with these initiatives, some of which may be material in the period in which they are incurred.

Even if we achieve further success with our cost reduction initiatives, we face risks associated with our initiatives, including declines in employee morale or the level of customer service we provide, the efficiency of our operations or the effectiveness of our internal controls. Any of these risks could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows.

An impairment of our goodwill or our indefinite lived intangible assets could have a material non-cash adverse impact on our results of operations.

We review our goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable and at least annually. If economic deterioration occurs, then we may be required to record charges for goodwill or indefinite lived intangible asset impairments in the future, which could have a material adverse non-cash impact on our results of operations.

Doing business in foreign countries requires us to comply with U.S. and foreign anticorruption laws, economic sanctions programs and anti-boycott regulation.

Our international operations are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption laws and regulations, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (‘‘FCPA’’), economic sanction programs administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (‘‘OFAC’’) and the anti-boycott regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce's Office of Antiboycott Compliance. As a result of doing business in foreign countries, we are exposed to a heightened risk of violating anti-corruption laws, OFAC regulations and anti-boycott regulations. The FCPA prohibits us from providing anything of value to foreign officials for the purposes of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper business advantage. As part of our business, we have to regularly deal with foreign officials for regulatory purposes and may deal with state-owned business enterprises, the employees of which are considered foreign officials for purposes of the FCPA. In addition, the provisions of the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 (the ‘‘Bribery Act’’) extend beyond bribery of foreign public officials and are more onerous than the FCPA in a number of other respects, including jurisdiction, non-exemption of facilitation payments and penalties. Some of the international locations in which we operate lack a developed legal system and have higher than normal levels of corruption. Economic sanctions programs restrict our business dealings with certain sanctioned countries and other sanctioned individuals and entities. Violations of anti-corruption laws and sanctions regulations are punishable by civil penalties, including fines, denial of export privileges, injunctions, asset seizures, debarment from government contracts and revocations or restrictions of licenses, as well as criminal fines and imprisonment. We have established policies and procedures designed to assist our compliance with applicable U.S. and foreign laws and regulations including the Bribery Act. However, there can be no assurance that our policies and procedures will effectively prevent us from violating these laws and regulations in every transaction in which we may engage, and such a violation could materially and adversely affect our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows. In addition, various U.S. state and municipal governments, universities and other investors maintain prohibitions or restriction on investments in companies that do business with sanctioned countries.

We may be unable to protect our trade secrets and other intellectual property rights, and our business could be harmed as a result.

We rely on trade secrets to protect our know-how and other proprietary information, including pricing, purchasing, promotional strategies, customer lists and/or suppliers lists. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. While we believe we use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our employees, consultants, contractors or advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose our information to competitors. In addition, confidentiality agreements, if any, executed by the foregoing persons may not be enforceable or provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure.

We may fail to respond adequately to changes in technology and customer demands.

In recent years our industry has been characterized by rapid changes in technology and customer demands. For example, industry participants have taken advantage of new technologies to improve fleet efficiency, decrease customer wait times and improve customer satisfaction. Our ability to continually improve our current processes and products in response to changes in technology is essential in maintaining our competitive position and maintaining current levels of customer satisfaction. We may experience technical or other difficulties that could delay or prevent the development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhanced product offerings. The effects of these risks may, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.

Our business is heavily reliant upon communications networks and centralized information technology systems and the concentration of our systems creates risks for us.

We rely heavily on communication networks and information technology systems, including the internet, to accept reservations, process rental and sales transactions, manage our pricing, manage our equipment fleet, manage our financing arrangements, account for our activities and otherwise conduct our business. Such systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches and natural disasters. Our reliance on these networks and systems exposes us to various risks that could cause a loss of reservations, interfere with our ability to manage our fleet, slow rental and sales processes, cause a failure to comply with our financing arrangements and otherwise materially adversely affect our ability to manage our business effectively. Our major information technology systems and accounting functions are centralized in a few locations worldwide. Any disruption, termination or substandard provision of these services, whether as the result of localized conditions (such as a fire, explosion or data

security breach), failure of our systems to function as designed or events or circumstances of broader geographic impact (such as an earthquake, storm, flood, epidemic, strike, act of war, civil unrest or terrorist act), could materially adversely affect our business by disrupting normal reservations, customer service, accounting and information technology functions or by eliminating access to financing arrangements. Any disruption or poor performance of our systems could lead to lower revenues, increased costs or other material adverse effects on our results of operations.

Failure to maintain, upgrade and consolidate our information technology networks could adversely affect us.

We are continuously upgrading and consolidating our systems, including making changes to legacy systems, replacing legacy systems with successor systems with new functionality and acquiring new systems with new functionality. In particular, we, as part of the consolidated Hertz Holdings enterprise, currently have a material weakness in our internal control due, in part, to the weakness in our accounting system. These types of activities subject us to additional costs and inherent risks associated with replacing and changing these systems, including impairment of our ability to manage our business, potential disruption of our internal control structure, substantial capital expenditures, additional administration and operating expenses, retention of sufficiently skilled personnel to implement and operate the new systems, demands on management time, and other risks and costs of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems or of integrating new systems into our current systems. Our system implementations may not result in productivity improvements at a level that outweighs the costs of implementation, or at all. In addition, the implementation of new technology systems may cause disruptions in our business operations and have an adverse effect on our business and operations if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated. Our competitive position may be adversely affected if we are unable to maintain systems that allow us to manage our business in a competitive manner.

We also rely heavily on our information technology staff. If we cannot meet our staffing needs in this area, we may not be able to fulfill our technology initiatives while continuing to provide maintenance on existing systems. We rely on certain software vendors to maintain and periodically upgrade many of these systems so that they can continue to support our business. The software programs supporting many of our systems were licensed to us by independent software developers. The inability of these developers or us to continue to maintain and upgrade these information systems and software programs would disrupt or reduce the efficiency of our operations if we were unable to convert to alternate systems in an efficient and timely manner. In addition, costs and potential problems and interruptions associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems and technology, or with maintenance or adequate support of existing systems also could disrupt or reduce the efficiency of our operations. Additionally, any systems failures could impede our ability to timely collect and report financial results in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

The misuse or theft of information we possess, including as a result of cyber security breaches, could harm our brand, reputation or competitive position and give rise to material liabilities.

We regularly possess, store and handle non-public information about individuals and businesses, including both credit and debit card information and other sensitive and confidential personal information. In addition, our customers regularly transmit confidential information to us via the internet and through other electronic means. Despite the security measures we currently have in place, our facilities and systems and those of our third-party service providers may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security. Unauthorized parties also may attempt to gain access to our systems or facilities, or those of third parties with whom we do business, through fraud, trickery, or other forms of deception of our employees or contractors. Many of the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, including viruses, worms and other malicious software programs, are difficult to anticipate until launched against a target and we may be unable to implement adequate preventative measures.

A compromise of our security systems resulting in unauthorized access to certain personal information about our customers or distributors could adversely affect our corporate reputation with our customers, distributors and others, as well as our operations, and could result in litigation against us or the imposition of penalties. Security breaches of this infrastructure can create system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. If we are unable to prevent such breaches, our operations could be disrupted, or we may suffer financial damage or loss because of lost or misappropriated information. In addition, most states have enacted laws requiring companies to notify individuals and often state authorities of data security breaches involving their personal data. These mandatory disclosures regarding a security breach often lead to widespread negative publicity, which may cause our customers to lose confidence in the effectiveness of our data security measures. Any security breach, whether successful or not, would harm our reputation and brand, and it could cause the loss of customers. A security breach also could require that we expend significant additional resources related to our information security systems.

Our success as an independent company will depend on our ability to retain key members of our senior management team and other key personnel and attract new members of our senior management team and other key personnel.

Our ability to execute on our business plan and succeed as an independent company will depend upon the contributions of our senior management team, the members of which are relatively new to our organization, as well as other key personnel, such as our dedicated sales force. If we were to lose the services of any one or more members of our senior management team or other key personnel, whether due to death, disability, resignation or termination of employment, our ability to successfully implement our business strategy, financial plans, marketing and other objectives, could be significantly impaired. In addition, we will need to attract new members to fill those functions previously performed by employees of New Hertz. If we are unable to attract qualified employees to perform these functions, we may not be able to execute our business plan.

Our business operations are dependent upon our new senior management team and the ability of our other new employees to learn their new roles.

Within the past year, we have substantially changed our senior management team and have replaced many of the other employees performing key functions at our corporate headquarters. We have a new Chief Executive Officer who started on May 21, 2015 and many other new members of our senior management team. In addition, in connection with the transition of our corporate headquarters from Park Ridge, New Jersey to Bonita Springs, Florida, we have replaced many other employees in other key functions. As new employees gain experience in their roles, we could experience inefficiencies or a lack of business continuity due to loss of historical knowledge and a lack of familiarity of new employees with business processes, operating requirements, policies and procedures, some of which are new, and key information technologies and related infrastructure used in our day-to-day operations and financial reporting and we may experience additional costs as new employees learn their roles and gain necessary experience. It is important to our success that these key employees quickly adapt to and excel in their new roles. If they are unable to do so, our business and financial results could be materially adversely affected.

We may face issues with our union employees.

Labor contracts covering the terms of employment of approximately 230 employees in the U.S. and 170 employees in Canada are presently in effect under approximately 20 active contracts with local unions, affiliated primarily with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the International Union of Operating Engineers. These contracts are renegotiated periodically. Failure to negotiate a new labor agreement when required could result in a work stoppage. Although we believe that our labor relations have generally been good, it is possible that we could become subject to additional work rules imposed by agreements with labor unions, or that work stoppages or other labor disturbances could occur in the future. In addition, our non-union workforce has been subject to unionization efforts in the past, and we could be subject to future unionization, which could lead to increases in our operating costs and/or constraints on our operating flexibility.

Part of our strategy includes pursuing strategic transactions, which could be difficult to identify and implement, and could disrupt our business or change our business profile significantly.

Over the past several years, we have completed a number of acquisitions, serving a number of different markets. We have and may opportunistically consider the acquisition of other companies or service lines of other businesses that either complement or expand our existing business, or we may consider the divestiture of some of our businesses. We may consider and make acquisitions or divestitures both in countries in which we currently operate and elsewhere. Any acquisitions we may seek to consummate will be subject to the negotiation of definitive agreements, satisfactory financing arrangements and applicable governmental approvals and consents, including under applicable antitrust laws, such as the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify suitable transactions and, even if we are able to identify such transactions, that we will be able to consummate any such acquisitions or divestitures. Any future acquisitions or divestitures we pursue may involve a number of risks, including, but not limited to, some or all of the following:


•	the diversion of management’s attention from our core businesses;


•	the disruption of our ongoing business;


•	inaccurate assessment of undisclosed liabilities;


•	potential known and unknown liabilities of the acquired businesses and limitations of seller indemnities;


•	entry into markets in which we have limited or no experience, including geographies in which we have not previously operated;


•	the inability to integrate our acquisitions without substantial costs, delays or other problems, which may be complicated by the breadth of our international operations;


•	the incorporation of acquired service lines into our business;


•	the failure to realize expected synergies and cost savings;


•	the loss of key employees or customers of the acquired or divested business;


•	increasing demands on our operational systems;


•	the integration of information systems and internal controls; and


•	possible adverse effects on our reported operating results or financial position, particularly during the first several reporting periods after the acquisition is completed.

Any acquired entities or assets may not enhance our results of operations. Even if we are able to integrate future acquired businesses with our operations successfully, we cannot assure you that we will realize the cost savings, synergies or revenue enhancements that we anticipate from such integration or that we will realize such benefits within the expected time frame. Any acquisition also may cause us to assume liabilities, record goodwill and other intangible assets that will be subject to impairment testing and potential impairment charges, incur significant restructuring charges and increase working capital and capital expenditure requirements, which may reduce our return on invested capital.

If we were to undertake a substantial acquisition, the acquisition likely would need to be financed in part through additional financing from banks, through public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities or with other arrangements. We cannot assure you that the necessary acquisition financing would be available to us on acceptable terms if and when required, particularly because we expect to incur a substantial amount of indebtedness in connection with the Spin-Off and the terms of that indebtedness may limit the acquisitions we may pursue, which may make it difficult or impossible for us to secure financing for acquisitions. If we were to undertake an acquisition by issuing equity securities or equity-linked securities, the acquisition may have a dilutive effect on the interests of the holders of our common stock.

A significant divestiture could require the amendment or refinancing of our outstanding indebtedness or a portion thereof.

Some or all of our deferred tax assets could expire if we experience an "ownership change" as defined in Section 382 of the Code.

An "ownership change" could limit our ability to utilize tax attributes, including net operating losses, capital loss carryovers, excess foreign tax carry forwards, and credit carryforwards, to offset future taxable income. As of December 31, 2014, HERC Holdings, on a consolidated basis, had a U.S. federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $4.5 billion (expiring 2028). Following the Spin-Off, the net operating loss carryforward will be split between HERC Holdings and New Hertz pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 1502 of the Code. Our ability to use such tax attributes to offset future taxable income and tax liability may be significantly limited if we experience an "ownership change" as defined in Section 382(g) of the Code. In general, an ownership change will occur when the percentage of HERC Holdings, Inc.’s ownership (by value) of one or more "5-percent shareholders" (as defined in the Code) has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock owned by such shareholders at any time during the prior three years (calculated on a rolling basis). An entity that experiences an ownership change generally should be subject to an annual limitation on its pre-ownership change tax loss carryforward equal to the equity value of the corporation immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the long-term, tax-exempt rate posted monthly by the IRS (subject to certain adjustments). The annual limitation accumulates each year to the extent that there is any unused limitation from a prior year. The limitation on our ability to utilize tax losses and credit carryforwards arising from an ownership change under Section 382 depends on the value of our equity at the time of any ownership change. If we were to experience an "ownership change,” it is possible that a significant portion of our tax loss carryforwards could expire before we would be able to use them to offset future taxable income. Many states adopt the federal section 382 rules and therefore have similar limitations with respect to state tax attributes.

We may experience fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rate.

We are subject to taxes in the United States and numerous international jurisdictions. We record tax expense based on our estimates of future tax payments, which include reserves for estimates of probable settlements of international and domestic tax audits. At any one time, many tax years are subject to audit by various taxing jurisdictions. The results of these audits and negotiations with taxing authorities may affect the ultimate settlement of these issues. As a result, we expect that throughout the year there could be ongoing variability in our quarterly tax rates as taxable events occur and exposures are re-evaluated. Further, our effective tax rate in a given period may be materially impacted by changes in the mix and level of earnings by taxing jurisdiction or by changes to existing accounting rules or regulations.

Changes to accounting rules or regulations may adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

Changes to existing accounting rules or regulations may impact our future results of operations and our ability to comply with covenants under our credit agreements or cause the perception that we have substantially increased liabilities. In addition, new accounting rules or regulations and varying interpretations of existing accounting rules or regulations may be adopted in the future. For instance, accounting regulatory authorities have from time to time considered requiring lessees to capitalize operating leases in their financial statements. If adopted, such a change would require us to record operating lease obligations on our balance sheet and make other changes to our financial statements. This and other future changes to accounting rules or regulations could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

We are exposed to a variety of claims and losses arising from our operations, and our insurance may not cover all or any portion of such claims. We also may be unable to renew our insurance policies under equivalent terms and conditions, including as a result of the Spin-Off.

We are exposed to a variety of claims arising from our operations, including (i) claims by third parties for injury or property damage arising from the operation of our equipment or acts or omissions of our personnel and (ii) workers’ compensation claims. We also are exposed to risk of loss from damage to our equipment and resulting business interruption. Our responsibility for such claims and losses is increased when we waive the provisions in certain of our rental contracts that hold a renter responsible for damage or loss under an optional loss or damage waiver that we offer. Following the Spin-Off, we will mitigate our exposure to large liability losses arising from such claims by maintaining general liability, workers' compensation and vehicle liability insurance coverage through unaffiliated carriers in such amounts as we deem adequate in light of the respective hazards, where such insurance is available on commercially reasonable terms. We will self-insure against losses associated with other risks not covered by these insurance policies. For example, we will be self-insured for group medical claims, though we will maintain “stop loss” insurance to protect ourselves from any one group medical claim loss exceeding a threshold amount, where such insurance is available on commercially reasonable terms.

These insurance policies often contain exclusions for certain types of claims, including those for punitive damages or arising from intentional misconduct. Moreover, in the event that insurance coverage does apply, we will bear a portion of the associated losses through the application of deductibles, self-retentions and caps in the insurance policies. For a company our size, such deductibles or self-retentions could be substantial. There is also no assurance that insurance policies of these types will be available for purchase or renewal on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, or that the premiums and deductibles under such policies will not substantially increase, including as a result of market conditions in the insurance industry or a possible loss of purchasing power following the Spin-Off as discussed below under “-Risks Related to the Spin-Off and Our Separation from New Hertz-We may experience increased costs resulting from a decrease in purchasing power as a result of our separation from New Hertz.”

If we were to incur one or more liabilities that are significant, individually or in the aggregate, and that are not fully insured, that we self-insure against or that our insurers dispute, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Even with adequate insurance coverage, we still may experience a significant interruption to our operations as a result of third party claims or other losses arising from our operations. See “Business—Insurance and Risk Management” and Note 13—Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments, to the audited combined financial statements included in this information statement.

Environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations and the costs of complying with them, or any liability or obligation imposed under them, could materially adversely affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our operations are subject to numerous national, state and local laws and regulations governing environmental protection and occupational health and safety matters. These laws govern such issues as wastewater, storm water, solid and hazardous wastes and materials, air quality and matters of workplace safety. Under these laws and regulations, we may be liable for, among other things, the cost of investigating and remediating contamination at our sites as well as sites to which we sent hazardous wastes for disposal or treatment regardless of fault, and also fines and penalties for non-compliance. We use hazardous materials to clean and maintain equipment, dispose of solid and hazardous waste and wastewater from equipment washing, and store and dispense petroleum products from storage tanks at certain of our locations.

Based on the conditions currently known to us, we do not believe that any pending or likely remediation and compliance costs will have a material adverse effect on our business. We cannot be certain, however, as to the potential financial impact on our business if new adverse environmental, health, or safety conditions are discovered, or environmental, health, and safety requirements become more stringent. If we are required to incur environmental, health, or safety compliance or remediation costs that are not currently anticipated by us, our financial position, results of operations or cash flows could be materially adversely affected, depending on the magnitude of the cost. See the section entitled “Business—Environmental, Health, and Safety Matters and Governmental Regulation.”

The U.S. Congress and other legislative and regulatory authorities in the United States and internationally have considered, and likely will continue to consider, numerous measures related to climate change, greenhouse gas emissions and other laws and regulations affecting our end markets, such as oil, gas and other natural resource extraction. Should such laws and regulations become effective, demand for our services could be affected, our fleet and/or other costs could increase and our business could be materially adversely affected.

Our foreign operations expose us to risks that may materially adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.

We currently operate in a number of foreign countries. Operating in different countries exposes us to varying risks, which include: (i) multiple, and sometimes conflicting, foreign regulatory requirements and laws that are subject to change and can be much different than the domestic laws in the United States, including laws relating to taxes, insurance rates, insurance products, consumer privacy, data security, employment matters, cost and fee recovery, and the protection of our trademarks and other intellectual property; (ii) the effect of foreign currency translation risk, as well as limitations on our ability to repatriate income; (iii) varying tax regimes, including consequences from changes in applicable tax laws; (iv) local ownership or investment requirements, as well as difficulties in obtaining financing in foreign countries for local operations; and (v) political and economic instability, natural calamities, war, and terrorism.

In addition, because a portion of our operations are outside the United States, we are subject to limitations on our ability to repatriate funds to the United States. These limitations arise from regulations in certain countries that limit our ability to remove funds from or transfer funds to foreign subsidiaries, as well as from tax liabilities that would be incurred in connection with such transfers. The effects of these risks may, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity, cash flows and ability to diversify internationally.

Adverse weather conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows.

Unusually prolonged periods of cold, rain, blizzards, hurricanes or other severe weather patterns could delay, halt or postpone renovation and construction activity leading to reduced revenues in the seasonally high rental sales months. An unusually severe or prolonged winter also can lead to reduced construction and exacerbate the seasonal decline in our sales, cash flows from operations and results of operations.

Changes in the legal and regulatory environment that affect our operations, including laws and regulations relating to taxes, consumer rights, privacy, data security and employment matters could disrupt our business, increase our expenses or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our operations also expose us to a host of other national, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, in addition to legal, regulatory and contractual requirements we face as a government contractor. These laws and regulations address

multiple aspects of our operations, such as taxes, consumer rights, privacy, data security and employment matters and also may impact other areas of our business. There are often different requirements in different jurisdictions. Changes in government regulation of our businesses have the potential to materially alter our business practices or our profitability. Depending on the jurisdiction, those changes may come about through new legislation, the issuance of new laws and regulations or changes in the interpretation of existing laws and regulations by a court, regulatory body or governmental official. Sometimes those changes may have not just prospective but also retroactive effect; this is particularly true when a change is made through reinterpretation of laws or regulations that have been in effect for some time. Moreover, changes in regulation that may seem neutral on their face may have either more or less impact on us than on our competitors, depending on the circumstances. Changes in these requirements, or any material failure by our operations to comply with them, could negatively impact our reputation, reduce our business, require significant management time and attention and generally otherwise adversely affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Future decreases in federal, state, provincial, local or foreign spending may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Some of our customers provide services to federal, state, provincial, local or foreign government entities and agencies. Often such customers require equipment rental for a variety of projects, including construction or infrastructure improvement projects. If government entities and agencies reduce spending or allocate future funding in a manner which results in fewer construction or infrastructure improvement projects, then our customers may no longer require equipment rental to complete projects. Our ability to affect or otherwise change any government entity’s spending policies is limited. A prolonged decrease in such government spending may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness

The substantial level of indebtedness we expect to incur in connection with the Spin-Off could materially adversely affect our financial condition and ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry or materially adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to compete in our industry.

After giving effect to the Pro Forma Transactions (as defined in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”), including the related financing transactions, we expect our total debt to be approximately $[ ] million. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and “Description of Certain Indebtedness.” Our substantial indebtedness could materially adversely affect us. For example, it could: (i) make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations to the holders of our outstanding debt securities and to the lenders under our various credit facilities, resulting in possible defaults on, and acceleration or early amortization of, such indebtedness; (ii) be difficult to refinance or borrow additional funds in the future; (iii) require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations and investing activities to make payments on our debt, which would reduce our ability to fund working capital, capital expenditures or other general corporate purposes; (iv) increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions (such as credit‑related disruptions), including interest rate fluctuations, because a portion of our borrowings are expected to be at floating rates of interest and are not hedged against rising interest rates, and the risk that one or more of the financial institutions providing commitments under our revolving credit facilities fails to fund an extension of credit under any such facility, due to insolvency or otherwise, leaving us with less liquidity than expected; (v) place us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors that have proportionately less debt or comparable debt at more favorable interest rates or on better terms; and (vi) limit our ability to react to competitive pressures, or make it difficult for us to carry out capital spending that is necessary or important to our growth strategy and our efforts to improve operating margins. While the terms of the agreements and instruments governing our indebtedness contain certain restrictions upon our ability to incur additional indebtedness, they do not fully prohibit us from incurring substantial additional indebtedness and do not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute indebtedness. If new debt or other obligations are added to our current liability levels without a corresponding refinancing or redemption of our existing indebtedness and obligations, these risks would increase.

Our ability to manage these risks will depend, among other things, on financial market conditions as well as our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, is subject to a wide range of risks, including those described under “—Risks Related to Our Business.”

If our capital resources (including borrowings under financing arrangements that we expect to enter into in connection with the Spin-Off and access to other refinancing indebtedness) and operating cash flows are not sufficient to pay

our obligations as they mature or to fund our liquidity needs, we may be forced, among other things, to do one or more of the following: (i) sell certain of our assets; (ii) reduce the size of our equipment rental fleet; (iii) reduce or delay capital expenditures; (iv) obtain additional equity capital; (v) forgo business opportunities, including acquisitions and joint ventures; or (vi) restructure or refinance all or a portion of our debt on or before maturity.

We cannot assure you that we would be able to accomplish any of these alternatives on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms, if at all. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that we will maintain financing activities and cash flows sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. If we cannot refinance or otherwise pay our obligations as they mature and fund our liquidity needs, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and ability to compete in our industry could be materially adversely affected.

Substantially all of our consolidated assets are expected to secure certain of our indebtedness expected to be incurred in connection with the Spin-Off, which could materially adversely affect our debt and equity holders and our business.

Substantially all of our consolidated assets, including our equipment rental fleet, are expected to be subject to security interests under the financing arrangements that we expect to enter into in connection with the Spin-Off. As a result, the lenders under those financing arrangements would have a secured claim on such assets in the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization, and we may not have sufficient funds to pay in full, or at all, all of our creditors or make any amount available to holders of our equity. The same is true with respect to structurally senior obligations. In general, all liabilities and other obligations of a subsidiary must be satisfied before the assets of such subsidiary can be made available to the unsecured or junior creditors (or equity holders) of the parent entity.

Because substantially all of our assets are expected to be encumbered under financing arrangements, our ability to incur additional secured indebtedness or to sell or dispose of assets to raise capital may be impaired, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial flexibility and force us to attempt to incur additional unsecured indebtedness, which may not be available to us.

An increase in interest rates or in our borrowing margin would increase the cost of servicing our debt and could reduce our profitability.

A significant portion of our anticipated indebtedness is expected to bear interest at floating rates. As a result, to the extent we have not hedged against rising interest rates, an increase in the applicable benchmark interest rates would increase our cost of servicing our debt and could materially adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

In addition, we may in the future seek to refinance our indebtedness. If interest rates or our borrowing margins increase between the time an existing financing arrangement was consummated and the time such financing arrangement is refinanced, the cost of servicing our debt would increase and our liquidity and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Despite our current and anticipated level of indebtedness, we and our subsidiaries may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks to our financial condition described above.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur significant additional indebtedness in the future. Although the financing arrangements that we expect to enter into in connection with the Spin-Off may contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions would be subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions, and the additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. These restrictions also will not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute indebtedness. If new debt is added to our current and anticipated debt levels, the related risks that we and the guarantors of such debt face could intensify.

Risks Related to the Spin-Off and Our Separation from New Hertz

HERC Holdings has no operating history as a stand-alone public company, and our historical and pro forma financial information is not necessarily representative of the results that we would have achieved as a separate, publicly traded company and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results.

Due to this accounting treatment of the Spin-Off, our historical and pro forma financial information included in this information statement is derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Hertz Holdings. Accordingly, the historical and pro forma financial information included herein do not necessarily reflect the results of operations, financial position and cash flows that we would have achieved as a separate, publicly traded company during the periods presented or those that we will achieve in the future primarily as a result of the following factors:

•

Prior to the Spin-Off, our equipment rental business was operated by Hertz Holdings as part of its broader corporate organization, rather than as an independent company. Hertz Holdings or one of its affiliates performed various corporate functions for us, including, but not limited to, accounting, auditing, corporate affairs, external reporting, human resources, information technology, legal services, risk management, tax administration, treasury, and certain governance functions (including internal audit and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), many of which functions may be performed by Hertz or one of its affiliates for us on a transitional basis pursuant to the transition services agreement entered into in connection with the Spin-Off. Our historical and pro forma financial results reflect allocations of corporate expenses for these and similar functions. These allocations may be less than the comparable expenses we believe we would have incurred had we operated as a separate public company.

•

Currently, our equipment rental business is integrated with the car rental business of Hertz Holdings, which will be operated by New Hertz following the Spin-Off. Historically, we have shared economies of scale in costs, employees, vendor relationships and customer relationships. The loss of these benefits could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial position and results of operations following the completion of the Spin-Off.

•

Generally, our working capital requirements and capital for our general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, research and development and capital expenditures, have historically been satisfied as part of the enterprise-wide cash management policies of Hertz Holdings. Following the completion of the Spin-Off, we may need to obtain additional financing from banks, through public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities, strategic relationships or other arrangements. The cost of capital for our business may be higher than Hertz Holdings’ cost of capital prior to the Spin-Off.

Other significant changes may occur in our cost structure, management, financing, risk profile and business operations as a result of operating as a public company separate from New Hertz. The adjustments and allocations we have made in preparing our historical and pro forma combined financial statements may not appropriately reflect our operations during those periods as if we had in fact operated as a stand-alone entity, or what the actual effect of our separation from New Hertz will be.

We will incur significant charges in connection with the Spin-Off and incremental costs as a stand-alone public company.

We will need to replicate or replace certain functions, systems and infrastructure to which we will no longer have the same access after the Spin-Off. We also may need to make investments or hire additional employees to operate without the same access to Hertz Holdings’ existing operational and administrative infrastructure. These initiatives may be costly to

implement. Due to the scope and complexity of the underlying projects relative to these efforts, the amount of total costs could be materially higher than our estimate, and the timing of the incurrence of these costs is subject to change.

In connection with the Spin-Off, we will enter into a transition services agreement with New Hertz that will govern certain commercial and other relationships between New Hertz and us after the separation, including New Hertz’s or one of its affiliate’s provision of certain important corporate functions to us on a transitional basis. Under the transition services agreement, we will be able to use these services for a fixed term not to exceed two years established on a service-by-service basis and will pay New Hertz fees for such services, which will be based on the provider’s allocated costs of providing such services, and may include a mark-up for certain services. Because the transition services agreement was negotiated in the context of a parent-subsidiary relationship (i.e., between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz prior to the Spin-Off), the terms of the agreement may be more or less favorable to us than those that would be agreed to by parties bargaining at arm’s length for similar services and the fees charged for the services may be higher or lower than the costs reflected in the allocations in our historical and pro forma financial results. In addition, while services under the transition services agreement are being provided to us by New Hertz or its affiliates, our operational flexibility to modify or implement changes with respect to such services or the amounts we pay for them will be limited. For more information on the transition services agreement, see “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Transition Services Agreement.”

The transitional arrangements set forth in the transition services agreement may not fully capture the benefits our business has enjoyed as a result of being integrated with the car rental business of Hertz Holdings. Additionally, following termination or expiration of the agreement, we may not be able to replace these services or enter into appropriate third-party agreements on terms and conditions, including cost and quality of service, comparable to those that we will receive from New Hertz or its affiliates under the transition services agreement. If we do not have our own adequate systems and business functions in place to replace these services, or are unable to obtain them from other providers, we may not be able to operate our business effectively or at comparable costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial position and results of operations.

We may experience increased costs resulting from a decrease in purchasing power as a result of our separation from New Hertz.

Historically, we have been able to take advantage of Hertz Holdings’ size and purchasing power in procuring goods, technology and services, including, among other things, insurance, employee benefit support and audit services. As a separate public company, we will be a smaller and less geographically diversified company than Hertz Holdings, and we may not have access to financial and other resources comparable to those available to Hertz Holdings prior to the Spin-Off. As a separate, stand-alone company, we may be unable to obtain goods, technology and services at prices and on terms as favorable as those available to us prior to the Spin-Off, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, our separation from New Hertz in connection with the Spin-Off may cause some of our existing agreements and licenses to be terminated. We cannot predict with certainty the effect that the Spin-Off and our separation from New Hertz will have on our business, our clients, our employees, our vendors or other persons.

The assets and resources that we retain in connection with the Spin-Off may not be sufficient for us to operate as a stand-alone company, and we may experience difficulty in separating our assets and resources from New Hertz.

Because we have not operated as an independent company in the past, we will need to acquire assets and/or resources in addition to those that we retain in connection with the Spin-Off. We also may face difficulty in separating our assets from those being transferred to or maintained by New Hertz, as contemplated by the separation and distribution agreement to be entered into in connection with the Spin-Off, and in integrating newly acquired assets and/or resources into our business, despite certain assistance with such integration to be provided to us pursuant to the transition services agreement. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed if we fail to acquire assets and/or resources important to our operations or if we incur unexpected costs in separating our assets from New Hertz’s assets or integrating newly acquired assets and/or resources.

We will assume and share with New Hertz responsibility for certain liabilities in connection with the Spin-Off, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement to be entered into in connection with the Spin-Off between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz, which will in part govern our relationship with New Hertz following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will assume, among other things, liabilities associated with its equipment rental business and related assets, whether such liabilities arise prior to or subsequent to the Spin-Off, and will be responsible for a portion of certain shared liabilities not otherwise specifically allocated to us or New Hertz under the separation and distribution agreement. Furthermore, HERC Holdings will agree to indemnify New Hertz for any losses (or its proportionate share of such losses) arising from such liabilities, as well as any other liabilities of HERC Holdings assumed pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement. The amount of such liabilities could be greater than anticipated and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Separation and Distribution Agreement.”

As a result of our separation from New Hertz in connection with the Spin-Off, we will lose Hertz’s brand and reputation.

Prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, our primary operating subsidiary, HERC, operated under the name “Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation,” in addition to conducting operations using the "HERC" name. We believe the association with Hertz has contributed to our building relationships with our customers due to Hertz’s globally recognized brand and perceived high-quality car and equipment rental products. In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will be renamed “HERC Holdings, Inc.,” and following the Spin-Off we expect that HERC will operate under the name “Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation” for a limited period of time. We cannot predict with certainty how any new brand we adopt, will be received in the marketplace. Although Hertz Holdings and New Hertz will enter into an intellectual property agreement pursuant to which, among other things, we may be granted a license to continue to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand, this licensing arrangement would only be effective for a limited period to allow us to transition to our new brand. The loss of Hertz’s brand and reputation could adversely affect our ability to attract and retain customers to the extent our new brand is not accepted in the marketplace, which could result in reduced equipment rental and other revenues.

The Spin-Off may adversely affect our business, and we may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of the Spin-Off.

We may not be able to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits expected to result from our separation from New Hertz, or such benefits may be delayed or not occur at all. These benefits include the following:


•	improving strategic planning, increasing management focus and streamlining decision-making by providing the flexibility to implement our strategic plan and to respond more effectively to different customer needs and the changing economic environment;


•	allowing us to adopt the capital structure, investment policy and dividend policy best suited to our financial profile and business needs, as well as resolving the current competition for capital among Hertz Holdings’ businesses;


•	creating an independent equity structure that will facilitate our ability to effect future acquisitions utilizing our common stock; and


•	facilitating incentive compensation arrangements for employees more directly tied to the performance of our business, and enhancing employee hiring and retention by, among other things, improving the alignment of management and employee incentives with performance and growth objectives.

We may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the Spin-Off for a variety of reasons. There also can be no assurance that the Spin-Off will not adversely affect our business.

If, following the completion of the Spin-Off, there is a determination that any of the Spin-Offs is taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes because the facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings underlying the IRS private letter ruling or tax opinions are incorrect or for any other reason, then HERC Holdings and its stockholders could incur significant U.S. federal income tax liabilities and New Hertz could incur significant liabilities.

Completion by Hertz Holdings of the Spin-Off is conditioned on, among other things, the absence of revocation or modification in any material respect of the private letter ruling that Hertz Holdings received from the IRS to the effect that,

subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, assumptions and covenants, (i) the Spin-Off will qualify as a tax-free transaction under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code and (ii) the internal spin-off transactions will qualify as tax free under Section 355 of the Code. A private letter ruling from the IRS generally is binding on the IRS. The favorable IRS ruling has been received by Hertz Holdings; however, the IRS ruling does not rule that the Spin-Offs satisfy every requirement for a tax-free spin-off, and Hertz Holdings will rely solely on the opinions of tax advisors described below to determine that such additional requirements are satisfied. It is a condition to the Spin-Off that Hertz Holdings receive opinions of KPMG LLP and Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, tax advisors to Hertz Holdings, to the effect that the Spin-Offs will qualify as transactions that are described in Section 355 of the Code. The ruling and the opinions will rely on certain facts, assumptions, representations and undertakings from Hertz Holdings and New Hertz regarding the past and future conduct of the companies’ respective businesses and other matters. If any of these facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings are incorrect or not otherwise satisfied and the Spin-Off occurs, HERC Holdings, its affiliates and its stockholders may not be able to rely on the ruling or the opinions of tax advisors and could be subject to significant tax liabilities. Notwithstanding the private letter ruling and opinions of tax advisors, the IRS could determine on audit that the Spin-Offs and related transactions are taxable if it determines that any of these facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings are not correct or have been violated or if it disagrees with the conclusions in the opinions that are not covered by the private letter ruling, or for other reasons, including as a result of certain significant changes in the stock ownership of HERC Holdings or New Hertz after the Spin-Off. If the Spin-Offs or related transactions are determined to be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes, HERC Holdings and its stockholders could incur significant U.S. federal income tax liabilities, including taxation on the value of the New Hertz common stock received in the Spin-Off, and New Hertz could incur significant liabilities. See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Offs.”

If either HERC Holdings or New Hertz takes or fails to take actions that cause the Spin-Offs to fail to qualify as tax-free transactions, the party that causes the Spin-Offs to be taxable will be required to indemnify the other for any resulting taxes and related losses.

Under the tax matters agreement between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz, if either HERC Holdings or New Hertz takes or fails to take any action (or permits any of its affiliates to take or fail to take any action) that causes the Spin-Offs to be taxable, or if there is an acquisition of the equity securities or assets of either party (or equity securities or assets of any member of that party’s group) that causes the Spin-Offs to be taxable, that party will be required to indemnify the other party for any resulting taxes and related losses.

If any of the Spin-Offs were taxable to any of the applicable companies, such companies would recognize gain equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the stock distributed over the tax basis in that stock, and HERC Holdings and its affiliates would have to pay tax on that gain. The amount of tax would be substantial, and the party causing the Spin-Offs to be taxable may not have sufficient financial resources to operate its business after paying any resulting taxes and related losses. For a more detailed description of the sharing of tax liabilities between HERC Holdings and New Hertz, see “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Tax Matters Agreement.”

The ability of HERC Holdings and New Hertz to engage in financings and acquisitions and other strategic transactions using equity securities is subject to limitations because of the U.S. federal income tax requirements for a tax-free distribution.

Current tax law generally creates a presumption that the Spin-Off would be taxable to HERC Holdings (but not to its stockholders) if either HERC Holdings or New Hertz engages in, or enters into an agreement to engage in, a transaction that would result in a fifty percent (50%) or greater change (by vote or by value) in stock ownership during the four-year period beginning on the date that begins two years before the distribution date, unless it is established that the transaction is not pursuant to a plan or series of transactions related to the Spin-Off.

To preserve the tax-free treatment of the Spin-Off, under the tax matters agreement between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz, each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz will be subject to restrictions (including restrictions on share issuances and redemptions, business combinations, sales of assets and similar transactions) that are designed to preserve the tax-free status of the Spin-Off. These restrictions may prevent HERC Holdings and New Hertz from entering into transactions that might be advantageous to them, such as issuing equity securities to satisfy financing needs or acquiring businesses or assets by issuing equity securities. Many of HERC Holdings’ and New Hertz’s competitors are not subject to similar restrictions, and therefore may have a competitive advantage over HERC Holdings and New Hertz in this regard.

HERC Holdings and New Hertz could incur significant tax liability if the other party fails to pay the tax liabilities attributable to it under the tax matters agreement.

Under U.S. federal income tax laws, HERC Holdings and New Hertz (or certain of its subsidiaries) are jointly and severally liable for Hertz Holdings’ federal income taxes attributable to certain periods prior to or including the taxable year of Hertz Holdings during which the Spin-Off occurs. Although the tax matters agreement allocates responsibility for tax liabilities between HERC Holdings and New Hertz, if either HERC Holdings or New Hertz fails to pay the taxes for which it is responsible under the tax matters agreement, the other party may be liable for these unpaid liabilities. Certain other jurisdictions may have similar rules. For a discussion of the tax matters agreement, please see “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Tax Matters Agreement.”

The Spin-Off may be challenged by creditors as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

If, under relevant federal and state fraudulent transfer and conveyance statutes, in a bankruptcy or reorganization case or a lawsuit by or on behalf of unpaid creditors of HERC Holdings, a court were to find that, at the time that HERC Holdings undertook the Spin-Off and related transactions:


•	the Spin-Off and related transactions were undertaken with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding current or future creditors, or HERC Holdings received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration in connection with the Spin-Off and related transactions; and


•	HERC Holdings:


•	was insolvent, or was rendered insolvent, by reason of the completion of the Spin-Off and related transactions,


•	was engaged, or about to engage, in a business or transaction for which its assets constituted unreasonably small capital,


•	intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay as such debts matured, or


•	was a defendant in an action for money damages, or had a judgment for money damages docketed against it if, in either case, after final judgment the judgment was unsatisfied,

the court could rescind the Spin-Off or require HERC Holdings or New Hertz, as the case may be, to fund liabilities of the other for the benefit of creditors.

The measure of insolvency for purposes of the foregoing considerations will vary depending upon the law of the jurisdiction that is being applied in the relevant legal proceeding. Generally, however, HERC Holdings would be considered insolvent if, at the time that HERC Holdings undertook the Spin-Off and related transactions, either:


•	the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, is greater than its assets, at a fair valuation; or


•	the present fair saleable value of its assets is less than the amount required to pay the probable liability on its total existing debts and liabilities, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and matured.

We cannot give you any assurance as to what standards a court would use to determine whether HERC Holdings was solvent at the relevant time, or whether, whatever standard was used, the Spin-Off would be rescinded or other liabilities would be imposed on either HERC Holdings or New Hertz, as the case may be, on another of the grounds described above. We believe that no basis exists to challenge the Spin-Off as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under the foregoing standards. However, in reaching such conclusion we have relied upon the advice of our third party advisors and our analysis of internal cash flow projections, which, among other things, assume that we will in the future realize certain price and volume increases and favorable changes in business mix, and estimated values of assets and liabilities. We cannot assure you, however, that a court would reach the same conclusion.

If the Spin-Off is not a legal dividend, it could be held invalid by a court and have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of HERC Holdings and New Hertz.

The declaration of the Spin-Off of shares of New Hertz common stock made to effect the Spin-Off is governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Under the DGCL, there are certain restrictions on a corporation’s ability to distribute its property, including the shares of the common stock of a subsidiary, as a dividend. Generally, under the DGCL a dividend may only be paid out of the corporation’s surplus or its net profits. If the Spin-Off is found invalid under the DGCL, a court could seek to have the Spin-Off rescinded. The resulting complications, costs and expenses could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of HERC Holdings and New Hertz.

After the Spin-Off, certain of the directors and executive officers of HERC Holdings and New Hertz may have conflicts of interest because of their ownership of both HERC Holdings and New Hertz common stock.

After the Spin-Off, certain of the directors of New Hertz and executive officers of both HERC Holdings and New Hertz will own shares of both HERC Holdings and New Hertz common stock because of their prior relationship with Hertz Holdings. This stock interest could create, or appear to create, potential conflicts of interest when HERC Holdings’ executive officers and New Hertz’s directors and executive officers are faced with decisions that could have different implications for HERC Holdings and New Hertz. For example, potential conflicts of interest could arise in connection with the resolution of any dispute between HERC Holdings and New Hertz regarding terms of the agreements governing the Spin-Off and the relationship between HERC Holdings and New Hertz thereafter, including the separation and distribution agreement, the employee matters agreement, the tax matters agreement, the transition services agreement, the intellectual property agreement and real estate arrangements. Potential conflicts of interest could also arise if HERC Holdings and New Hertz enter into any commercial arrangements in the future.

Risks Related to the Securities Markets and Ownership of HERC Holdings Common Stock

The securities of HERC Holdings, as a public company separate from New Hertz, have no prior public market. An active trading market for our common stock may not develop, and you may not be able to sell your common stock at or above a price which, when combined with the value of your New Hertz common stock received in the Spin-Off, equals or exceeds the value of your pre-Spin-Off Hertz Holdings common stock.

Prior to the Spin-Off, there has been no public market for the common stock of HERC Holdings, as a public company separate from New Hertz, which will operate Hertz Holdings’ car rental business. Similarly, there has been no prior public market for the common stock of New Hertz, which is a newly formed company established to hold the car rental business, the shares of which are to be distributed to the Hertz Holdings’ stockholders pursuant to the Spin-Off. An active trading market for shares of our common stock may not be sustained following the Spin-Off, nor can we predict the market characteristics of the shares of New Hertz common stock following the Spin-Off. If an active trading market is not sustained, you may have difficulty selling your shares of common stock at an attractive price, or at all. We cannot predict the prices at which shares of our common stock or the common stock of New Hertz may trade after the Spin-Off. Similarly, we cannot predict whether the combined market value of the shares of our common stock you hold after the Spin-Off and the common stock of New Hertz you receive in the Spin-Off will be less than, equal to or greater than the market value of the common stock of Hertz Holdings prior to the Spin-Off.

An inactive market also may impair our ability to raise capital by selling our common stock, and it may impair our ability to motivate our employees through equity incentive awards and our ability to acquire other companies, products or technologies by using our common stock as consideration.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly after the Spin-Off.

The market price of HERC Holdings common stock could fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to:


•	our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;


•	actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows;


•	changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;


•	ongoing remediation of weaknesses in Hertz Holdings' internal control over financial reporting;


•	the public reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;


•	announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, dispositions, innovations or new programs and services;


•	changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts following our stock, or the failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock after the Spin-Off;


•	changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;


•	the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;


•	general economic conditions and overall market fluctuations; and


•	the trading volume of our common stock.

In addition, the realization of any of the risks described in these “Risk Factors” could have a material and adverse impact on the market price of our common stock in the future and cause the value of your investment to decline. The stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, regardless of our actual performance.

The securities of many companies have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in recent years, often unrelated to the companies’ operating performance. If the market price of our common stock reaches an elevated level following the Spin-Off, it may materially and rapidly decline. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, stockholders have often instituted securities class action litigation against the company. If we were to be involved in a class action lawsuit, it could divert the attention of senior management, and, if adversely determined, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings will have a substantially smaller market capitalization than Hertz Holdings, which likely will cause a substantial shift in the makeup of HERC Holdings’ stockholder base. As this shift occurs, there are likely to be significant fluctuations in the prices at which HERC Holdings common stock trades.

If securities or industry analysts adversely change their recommendations regarding our stock or if our operating results do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.

The trading market for our common stock could be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us or our business. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. Moreover, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock or if our operating results do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.

Our accounting and other management systems and resources may not be adequately prepared to meet the financial reporting and other requirements to which we will continue to be subject following the Spin-Off.

The financial results of our equipment rental business were previously included within the consolidated results of Hertz Holdings. Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off and will be the legal spinnee in the transaction, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of New Hertz will reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off HERC Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of HERC Holdings, including such information presented in this information statement, will reflect the financial information of the equipment rental business of Hertz Holdings as historically operated as part of the consolidated company, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented.

We will continue to be required to file annual and quarterly reports and other information pursuant to the Exchange Act with the SEC. We will be required to ensure that we have the ability to prepare financial statements included in such reports, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented, that comply with SEC reporting

requirements on a timely basis. We also will continue to be subject to other reporting and corporate governance requirements, including the NYSE listing standards and certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which impose significant compliance obligations upon us. Specifically, we will continue to be required to:


•	prepare and distribute periodic reports and other stockholder communications in compliance with our obligations under the federal securities laws and NYSE rules;


•	maintain compliance and internal audit functions;


•	evaluate and maintain our system of internal control over financial reporting, and report on management’s assessment thereof, in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the related rules and regulations of the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;


•	involve and retain outside legal counsel and accountants in connection with the activities listed above; and


•	maintain internal policies, including those relating to disclosure controls and procedures.

Prior to the Spin-Off, many of these functions were handled by infrastructure and support staff, including accounting staff, that will be transferred to New Hertz in connection with the Spin-Off. Although we will receive certain transition services from New Hertz or its affiliates with respect to these functions pursuant to the transition services agreement, we will be required to commit significant resources and management oversight to the above-listed requirements after the Spin-Off, which will cause us to incur significant costs and which will place a strain on our systems and resources. As a result, our management’s attention might be diverted from other business concerns. In addition, we might not be successful in maintaining and/or implementing these requirements.

If we are unable to implement the reporting requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to provide a favorable report on the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to report our financial information on a timely basis and may suffer adverse regulatory consequences or violations of NYSE listing standards. There also could be a negative reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of investor confidence in us and the reliability of our financial statements. See “—Risks Related to Our Business—Hertz Holdings has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting which could, if not remediated prior to the Spin-Off, adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our common stock.”

HERC Holdings will be a holding company with no operations of its own and will depend on its subsidiaries for cash.

The operations of HERC Holdings will be conducted nearly entirely through its subsidiaries and its ability to generate cash to meet its debt service obligations or to pay dividends on its common stock will be dependent on the earnings and the receipt of funds from its subsidiaries via dividends or intercompany loans. However, none of the subsidiaries of HERC Holdings will be obligated to make funds available to HERC Holdings for the payment of dividends or the service of its debt. In addition, certain states' laws and the terms of certain of our debt agreements that we expect to enter into in connection with the Spin-Off may significantly restrict, or prohibit, the ability of HERC Holdings’ subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or otherwise transfer assets to HERC Holdings, including state laws that require dividends to be paid only from surplus. If HERC Holdings does not receive cash from its subsidiaries, then HERC Holdings’ financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of the sale or distribution of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market after the Spin-Off or the perception that a sale or distribution could occur. These factors also could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of our common stock.

We are unable to predict whether significant amounts of Hertz Holdings common stock will be sold in the open market in anticipation of, or HERC Holdings common stock will be sold in the open market following, the Spin-Off, as well as the potential negative effects that these sales could have on the price of our common stock. It is possible that some HERC Holdings shareholders, including possibly some of its largest shareholders, may sell HERC Holdings common stock for reasons such as that our business profile or market capitalization as a publicly traded company separate from New Hertz does not fit their investment objectives.

Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the Spin-Off, or the perception that such sales or distributions will occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for us to raise funds through securities offerings in the future. As of [ ], 2016, there were [ ] shares of Hertz Holdings common stock issued and outstanding, which are freely transferable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless acquired by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In addition, all shares of Hertz Holdings common stock acquired upon exercise of stock options and other equity-based awards granted under Hertz Holdings stock incentive plans also will be freely tradable under the Securities Act unless acquired by our affiliates. A maximum of 32.7 million shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under Hertz Holdings stock incentive plans, some of which have been issued as of the date of this information statement. Certain of the awards under the stock incentive plans will be adjusted into awards of New Hertz in connection with the Spin-Off.

Following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings also may issue additional common stock for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy (including acquisitions), to adjust our ratio of debt to equity, or to provide incentives pursuant to certain executive compensation arrangements. Such future issuances of equity securities, or the expectation that they will occur, could cause the market price for our common stock to decline. The price of our common stock also could be affected by hedging or arbitrage trading activity that may exist or develop involving our common stock.

Your percentage ownership in us may be diluted by future issuances of capital stock or securities or instruments that are convertible into our capital stock, which could reduce your influence over matters on which stockholders vote.

Our board of directors has the authority, without action or vote of our stockholders, to issue all or any part of our authorized but unissued shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon the exercise of options, shares that may be issued to satisfy our obligations under our incentive plans, shares of our authorized but unissued preferred stock and securities and instruments that are convertible into our common stock. Issuances of common stock or voting preferred stock would reduce your influence over matters on which our stockholders vote and, in the case of issuances of preferred stock, likely would result in your interest in us being subject to the prior rights of holders of that preferred stock.

We have no current plans to pay dividends on our common stock, and our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited.

We have no current plans to pay dividends on our common stock. Our payment of dividends on our common stock in the future will be determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion and will depend on business conditions, our financial condition, earnings and liquidity, and other factors. The agreements governing the financing arrangements that we expect to enter into in connection with the Spin-Off may contain certain restrictions on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, other than dividends payable solely in shares of our capital stock.

In addition, any of our indentures and other financing agreements that we enter into in the future may limit our ability to pay cash dividends on our capital stock, including our common stock. In the event that any of our indentures or other financing agreements in the future restrict our ability to pay dividends in cash on our common stock, we may be so restricted from paying dividends in cash on our common stock unless we can refinance the amounts outstanding under those agreements.

In addition, under the DGCL our board of directors may declare dividends on our capital stock only to the extent of our statutory “surplus” (which is defined as the amount equal to total assets minus total liabilities, in each case at fair market value, minus statutory capital), or if there is no such surplus, out of our net profits for the then current and/or immediately preceding fiscal year. Further, even if we are permitted under our contractual obligations and the DGCL to pay cash dividends on our common stock, we may not have sufficient cash to pay dividends in cash on our common stock.

As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock may be your sole source of potential gain for the foreseeable future. We cannot predict whether the combined market value of the shares of our common stock you hold after the Spin-Off and the common stock of New Hertz you receive in the Spin-Off will be less than, equal to or greater than the market value of the common stock of Hertz Holdings prior to the Spin-Off.

Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-Laws could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could deter or prevent a change in control.

The by-laws of HERC Holdings will be the same as the By-Laws of Hertz Holdings. The certificate of incorporation of HERC Holdings also will be the same as the Certificate of Incorporation of Hertz Holdings. Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our board of directors rather than to attempt a hostile takeover. These provisions include:


•	a board of directors that will initially be divided into three classes with staggered terms, although in May 2014 Hertz Holdings amended the Certificate of Incorporation to provide for declassification of its board of directors, such that all directors will be elected on an annual basis beginning at the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders;


•	limitations on the right of stockholders to remove directors, although such limitations expire upon the completion of the declassification of the board of directors at the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders;


•	granting to the board of directors sole power to set the number of directors and to fill any vacancy on the board of directors, whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number of directors or otherwise;


•	the ability of our board of directors to designate and issue one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval, the terms of which may be determined at the sole discretion of the board of directors;


•	prohibiting our stockholders from acting by written consent;


•	the absence of cumulative voting; and


•	establishment of advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations for election to the board of directors at stockholder meetings.

We believe that these provisions protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our board of directors and by providing our board of directors with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make us immune from takeovers. However, these provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our board of directors determines is in our best interests and that of our stockholders. Any or all of the foregoing provisions could limit the price that some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

THE SPIN-OFF

Background of the Spin-Off

On March 18, 2014 Hertz Holdings announced board approval of a plan to separate its business into two separate independent public companies, one of which will operate Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business and the other of which will operate its global equipment rental business, by means of a tax-free Spin-Off. In connection with the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings will undertake the internal reorganization described under “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz—Separation and Distribution Agreement,” including causing The Hertz Corporation, or “Hertz,” as well as the other subsidiaries of Hertz Holdings that conduct its global car rental business, to become subsidiaries of Hertz Holdings’ newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc., or “New Hertz.” Following the internal reorganization, Hertz Holdings will distribute to its stockholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of New Hertz via dividend. Following the Spin-Off, New Hertz will operate Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business through its operating subsidiaries, including Hertz, and Hertz Holdings (Hertz Holdings being referred to, following the Spin-Off, as “HERC Holdings”) will continue to operate Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business through its operating subsidiaries, including HERC.

The Spin-Off is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions and Hertz Holdings’ board of directors’ ongoing consideration of the Spin-Off. See “—Conditions to the Spin-Off.” If all conditions to the Spin-Off are satisfied or waived by the board of directors of Hertz Holdings in its sole discretion, at the close of business on the distribution date, [ ], 2016, for each whole share of Hertz Holdings common stock held by you as of the close of business on [ ], 2016, the record date for the distribution, you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock, as described below.

Please note that you will not be required to pay any cash or other consideration for the shares of New Hertz common stock distributed to you or to surrender or exchange your shares of Hertz Holdings common stock to receive the dividend of New Hertz common stock in the Spin-Off. Following the Spin-Off, you will continue to own your shares of HERC Holdings common stock, and, if you were a Hertz Holdings stockholder as of the record date for the Spin-Off, you also will receive shares of New Hertz common stock. The Spin-Off will not, except in connection with the reverse stock split discussed below, otherwise change the number of outstanding shares of HERC Holdings common stock.

Accounting Treatment of the Spin-Off

Reasons for the Spin-Off

Hertz Holdings believes that the key benefits of the Spin-Off include:

•

Greater strategic focus. Hertz Holdings expects a sharper focus on each of HERC Holdings’ and New Hertz’s respective businesses and growth opportunities as a result of their respective boards of directors and management teams concentrating only on their core businesses. We anticipate that each company will be able to make decisions more quickly, deploy resources more rapidly and efficiently, and operate with more agility than

when all of their businesses were part of a larger organization. Further, the separation of HERC Holdings from New Hertz will eliminate any internal competition for capital among Hertz Holdings’ various businesses, which Hertz Holdings believes will enhance each company’s opportunities for growth.


•	Direct access to capital markets. As independent public companies, we believe that each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz will be able to directly access the capital markets, and issue equity and debt each on its own merits in order to finance expansion, growth opportunities and debt repayment.


•	Improved ability to undertake acquisitions. After the completion of the Spin-Off, we expect that each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz will have a more focused equity currency, which we believe may improve its ability to pursue strategic initiatives, including acquisitions, joint ventures and investments.


•	Better understanding of businesses. We anticipate that the businesses of each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz will be more easily understood by investors, rating agencies and other market participants after the completion of the Spin-Off.

•

Increased ability to attract, retain and motivate employees. Hertz Holdings believes that incentive compensation arrangements for key employees of each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz, directly related to the market performance of their respective common stock, will provide enhanced incentives for performance. The separation will enable each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz to offer its key employees compensation directly linked to the performance of its respective business, including equity based compensation, which we expect will enhance each company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

In determining whether to pursue the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings’ board of directors considered among other factors the costs and risks associated with the transaction, including the cost associated with preparing HERC Holdings and New Hertz to become independent publicly traded companies, the risk of volatility in the price of HERC Holdings common stock immediately following the Spin-Off due to, among other things, sales by stockholders whose investment objectives may not be fulfilled by ownership of HERC Holdings common stock, the time it may take for HERC Holdings to attract its optimal stockholder base, any potential negative impact on New Hertz’s credit rating as a result of the Spin-Off, the time and effort required by this transaction from HERC Holdings’ and New Hertz’s management and the potential distraction from their respective businesses, the loss of synergies and scale from operating as a single company and the other risks discussed under “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Spin-Off and Our Separation from New Hertz.” Notwithstanding these costs and risks, after taking into account the factors discussed above, Hertz Holdings’ board of directors determined that the Spin-Off was in the best interests of stockholders as a transaction to potentially enhance stockholder value through corporate level benefits realized by virtue of the Spin-Off.

Conditions to the Spin-Off

•

The private letter ruling that Hertz Holdings received from the IRS to the effect that, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, assumptions and covenants, (i) the Spin-Off will qualify as a tax-free transaction under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code and (ii) the internal spin-off transactions will qualify under Section 355 of the Code, shall not have been revoked or modified in any material respect;


•	Hertz Holdings’ receipt of the opinions of KPMG LLP and Debevoise & Plimpton LLP that the Spin-Offs will qualify as transactions described in Section 355 of the Code, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, assumptions and covenants;


•	Hertz Holdings’ receipt of a written solvency opinion from a financial advisor acceptable to Hertz Holdings, which confirms the solvency and financial viability of Hertz Holdings before the consummation of the Spin-Off and each of HERC Holdings and New Hertz after the consummation of the Spin-Off and is in form and substance acceptable to Hertz Holdings;


•	the registration statement on Form 10 with respect to the registration of New Hertz common stock under the Exchange Act shall have become effective, and no stop order suspending such effectiveness shall be in effect;


•	all statutory requirements for the consummation of the Spin-Off must have been satisfied, and no injunction, court order, law or regulation shall be in effect preventing the completion of the Spin-Off;


•	HERC Holdings and New Hertz, or their respective subsidiaries, shall have entered into new credit agreements and other financial arrangements prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off;


•	the NYSE shall have approved the listing of New Hertz’s common stock; and


•	any material regulatory or contractual consents or approvals necessary for the Spin-Off must have been obtained, without any conditions that would have a material adverse effect on HERC Holdings or New Hertz.

The fulfillment of the above conditions will not create any obligation on Hertz Holdings’ part to effect the Spin-Off. Hertz Holdings, in its sole and absolute discretion, will determine the terms of, and whether to proceed with, the Spin-Off and, to the extent it determines to proceed, determine the record date and distribution date for the Spin-Off.

The Number of New Hertz Shares You Will Receive

For each share of Hertz Holdings common stock that you own as of the record date for the Spin-Off, you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock. Because you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock for each share of Hertz Holdings common stock that you hold, we will not need to issue or pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares of New Hertz common stock. It is important to note that if you sell your shares of Hertz Holdings common stock between the record date and the distribution date in the “regular way” or “due bills” market, you will be selling your right to receive the New Hertz share dividend in the Spin-Off. See “—Trading between the Record Date and Distribution Date.”

Internal Reorganization and Related Financing Transactions

HERC Holdings and/or one or more of its subsidiaries and New Hertz and/or one or more of its subsidiaries will be parties to a number of agreements that govern HERC Holdings’ separation from New Hertz and the post-Spin-Off relationship of such companies and will allocate between HERC Holdings and New Hertz various assets, liabilities, rights and obligations, including employee benefits, intellectual property and tax-related assets and liabilities. Such agreements include a separation and distribution agreement, a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, a transition services agreement, an intellectual property agreement and certain real estate lease agreements. For a more complete description of the terms of these agreements, see “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz.”

The separation and distribution agreement to be entered into will provide for a series of internal reorganization transactions to be undertaken by Hertz Holdings in connection with the Spin-Off (sometimes referred to herein as the “internal reorganization”), as well as a series of related financing transactions to be undertaken by Hertz and HERC in connection with the Spin-Off. Pursuant to the internal reorganization, New Hertz will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global car rental business, including Hertz, and HERC Holdings will hold the entities associated with Hertz Holdings’ global equipment rental business, including HERC. In addition to this internal reorganization and in connection with the Spin-Off, it is expected that HERC, which is to be a wholly owned subsidiary of HERC Holdings following the Spin-Off, will transfer to Hertz and its subsidiaries approximately $[ ] billion, to fund, among other things, such transfers and in connection with the Spin-Off, HERC expects to enter into appropriate financing arrangements. In this information statement, we refer to these transactions as the “related financing transactions.”

Results of the Spin-Off

After the completion of the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings and New Hertz will be separate, independent, public companies operating their respective businesses. Immediately following the completion of the Spin-Off, there will be approximately [ ] holders of record of shares of New Hertz common stock and approximately [ ] shares of New Hertz common stock outstanding, based on the number of holders of record and shares outstanding of Hertz Holdings common stock on [ ], 2016, without taking into account the effects of the reverse stock split to occur immediately following the completion of the Spin-Off. The actual number of shares of New Hertz common stock to be distributed will be determined as of the record date and will reflect any issuance of new shares or exercises of options pursuant to Hertz Holdings’ equity plans on or prior to the record date. The Spin-Off will not affect the number of outstanding shares of HERC Holdings common stock; however, the number of outstanding shares of HERC Holdings common stock will decrease in connection with the completion of the reverse stock split. See "—Reverse Stock Split."

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Offs

The following summary discusses the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Spin-Offs. This discussion is based upon the Code, Treasury regulations, published positions of the IRS, judicial decisions and other applicable authorities, all as currently in effect, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change could affect the accuracy of this discussion. The discussion does not address the effects of the Spin-Offs under any state, local or foreign tax laws.

The discussion assumes that Hertz Holdings’ stockholders hold their Hertz Holdings common stock, and will hold New Hertz common stock, as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. Further, the discussion does not constitute tax advice and does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular stockholder in light of such stockholder's personal investment circumstances or to stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws such as: (i) insurance companies and other financial institutions; (ii) tax-exempt organizations; (iii) dealers in stocks or securities; (iv) cooperatives; (v) stockholders who acquired their Hertz Holdings common stock through the exercise of options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan; (vi) stockholders that hold Hertz Holdings common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, a constructive sale or conversion transaction or other risk reduction or integrated investment transaction; (vii) investors in pass-through entities; and (viii) individuals who are not citizens or residents of the U.S., foreign corporations and other foreign entities.

This summary is limited to stockholders of Hertz Holdings that are United States holders. A United States holder is a beneficial owner of Hertz Holdings stock, other than an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, that is for United States federal income tax purposes:


•	an individual who is a citizen or a resident of the United States;


•	a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;


•	an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or


•	a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or (ii) in the case of a trust that was treated as a domestic trust under the law in effect before 1997, a valid election is in place under applicable Treasury regulations.

Hertz Holdings has received a private letter ruling from the IRS confirming the tax-free nature of the Spin-Offs under Section 355 of the Code. Although a private letter ruling from the IRS generally is binding on the IRS, the ruling does not rule that the Spin-Offs satisfy every requirement for a tax-free spin-off. The requirements for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code on which the IRS will not rule include that each of the Spin-Offs (a) is motivated, in whole or substantial part, by one or more corporate business purposes, (b) is not being used principally as a device for the distribution of earnings and profits of the relevant distributing corporation or controlled corporation and (c) is not part of a plan (or series of related transactions) pursuant to which one or more persons will acquire, directly or indirectly, stock representing a 50 percent or greater interest in the relevant distributing corporation or controlled corporation under Section 355(e) of the Code. The parties will rely solely on the opinions of tax advisors described below for comfort that such additional requirements are satisfied.

The Spin-Off is also conditioned upon Hertz Holdings’ receipt of the opinions of KPMG LLP and Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, Hertz Holdings’ tax advisors, to the effect that the Spin-Offs will qualify as tax-free to Hertz Holdings under Sections 355 and 368 of the Code. The opinions of Hertz Holdings’ tax advisors will rely on the IRS ruling as to matters covered by it.

The IRS ruling is, and the opinions of Hertz Holdings’ tax advisers will be based on, among other things, certain representations, assumptions, and covenants made by Hertz Holdings and its subsidiaries. The failure of any factual representation or assumption to be true, correct and complete in all material respects could adversely affect the validity of the ruling and opinions. An opinion of a tax advisor represents the adviser’s best legal judgment, is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and the IRS or the courts may not agree with the opinion. In addition, the IRS ruling and the opinions of Hertz Holdings’ tax advisors will be based on current law, and cannot be relied on if current law changes with retroactive effect.

The IRS ruling concludes that:


(1)	the contribution by Hertz Holdings of Hertz’s parent holding company to New Hertz, followed by the distribution of the New Hertz stock in the Spin-Off, will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code, and Hertz Holdings and New Hertz will each be a party to a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code;


(2)	no gain or loss will be recognized by stockholders of Hertz Holdings (and no amount will be includible in their income) upon the receipt of the New Hertz stock in the Spin-Off under Section 355(a)(1) of the Code;


(3)	each Hertz Holdings stockholder’s holding period in the New Hertz stock received in the Spin-Off will include the holding period of the Hertz Holdings stock with respect to which the Spin-Off is made; and


(4)	each Hertz Holdings stockholder’s basis in the HERC Holdings and New Hertz stock immediately after the Spin-Off will equal the basis of the Hertz Holdings stock held immediately before the Spin-Off, allocated between the stock of HERC Holdings and New Hertz in proportion to the fair market value of each immediately following the Spin-Off.

The IRS ruling also concludes that no gain or loss will be recognized by the parties to the internal spin-offs under Section 355 of the Code.

If the Spin-Off does not qualify as a tax-free distribution under Section 355 of the Code, each Hertz Holdings stockholder who receives New Hertz stock would be treated as receiving a taxable dividend in an amount equal to the fair market value of the New Hertz stock received, to the extent of Hertz Holdings’ earnings and profits. In addition, HERC Holdings would recognize taxable gain equal to the excess of the fair market value of New Hertz stock distributed to Hertz Holdings’ stockholders over HERC Holdings’ basis in the New Hertz stock.

Even if the Spin-Off otherwise qualifies as a tax-free distribution under Section 355 of the Code, the Spin-Off will be taxable to Hertz Holdings pursuant to Section 355(e) of the Code if there is a 50% or more change in ownership of either HERC Holdings or New Hertz, directly or indirectly, as part of a plan or series of related transactions that include the Spin-Off. Section 355(e) might apply if acquisitions of stock of Hertz Holdings (HERC Holdings) before or after the Spin-Off, or of New Hertz after the distribution, are considered to be part of a plan or series of related transactions that include, the Spin-Off. In connection with the IRS ruling, Hertz Holdings represented that the Spin-Off is not part of any such plan or series of related transactions. If Section 355(e) of the Code were to apply, Hertz Holdings might recognize a substantial amount of taxable gain.

Furthermore, if any of the internal spin-offs or related transactions were taxable, the parties thereto will be subject to tax in connection therewith, and the associated tax liabilities may be substantial.

Under the tax matters agreement between HERC Holdings and New Hertz, if either HERC Holdings or New Hertz takes or fails to take any action (or permits any of their respective affiliates to take or fail to take any action) that causes the Spin-Offs to be taxable, or if there is an acquisition of the equity securities or assets of either party (or equity securities or assets of any member of that party’s group) that causes the Spin-Offs to be taxable, that party will be required to indemnify the other party for any resulting taxes and related losses.

United States Treasury regulations require each Hertz Holdings stockholder that owns at least 5% of the total outstanding stock of Hertz Holdings and receives stock in the Spin-Off to attach to its United States federal income tax return

for the year in which the distribution occurs a detailed statement containing certain information relating to the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off. Upon request, HERC Holdings will provide stockholders of 5% or more of its outstanding stock who received New Hertz stock in the Spin-Off with any pertinent information that is in HERC Holdings’ possession and is reasonably available, to the extent necessary to comply with that requirement.

Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

Prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings intends to seek stockholder approval of a reverse stock split with a ratio equal to an integral ratio between 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, inclusive, as determined by the board of directors. The implementation of the reverse stock split would be effective immediately following the Spin-Off. The following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the reverse stock split to United States holders (as defined above) of HERC Holdings common stock. See “—Reverse Stock Split.”

This discussion is based on the Code, Treasury regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change or to different interpretation, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to specific holders in light of their particular circumstances or to holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (such as banks or other financial institutions, insurance companies, dealers in securities or other persons that generally mark their securities to market for U.S. federal income tax purposes, tax-exempt entities, retirement plans, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, former citizens or residents of the U.S., partnerships or other pass-through entities (or investors therein), persons that hold HERC Holdings common stock as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion or other integrated transaction, non-U.S. trusts and estates that have U.S. beneficiaries, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, U.S. Holders that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, “controlled foreign corporations,” or “passive foreign investment companies”). This discussion does not address any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. tax considerations or any U.S. federal tax considerations other than U.S. federal income tax considerations (such as gift tax considerations).

This summary is for general information only. This summary is not binding on the IRS or a court. We have not sought, and do not intend to seek, any tax opinion from counsel or ruling from the IRS with respect to any of the statements made in this summary, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not take a position contrary to these statements, or that a contrary position taken by the IRS would not be sustained by a court.

HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes is the beneficial owner of HERC Holdings common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will depend in part upon the status and activities of the entity and of the particular partner. Any such entity should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to it and its partners relating to the reverse stock split.

Other than the cash payments for fractional shares discussed below, no gain or loss should be recognized by a United States holder upon the exchange of pre-reverse stock split shares for post-reverse stock split shares. The aggregate tax basis of the post-reverse stock split shares will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged therefor, reduced by any amount allocable to a fractional share for which cash is received. A United States holder’s holding period in the post-reverse stock split shares will include the period during which the United States holder held the pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged therefor.

In general, the receipt of cash by a United States holder instead of a fractional share interest in the post-reverse stock split shares will result in a taxable gain or loss to such United States holder for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of the taxable gain or loss to the United States holder will be determined based upon the difference between the amount of cash received by such United States holder and such holder’s basis in its applicable pre-reverse stock split share or shares. The gain or loss recognized will constitute capital gain or loss, and will constitute long-term capital gain or loss if the United States holder’s holding period is greater than one year as of the effective date of the reverse stock split. There are limitations on the deductibility of capital losses under the Code.

Listing and Trading of New Hertz and HERC Holdings Common Stock

Hertz Holdings presently owns all of the outstanding shares of New Hertz common stock. Accordingly, there is currently no public market with respect to these shares, although a “when-issued” market in New Hertz common stock may develop prior to the Spin-Off. In addition, prior to the Spin-Off, there has been no public market for the common stock of

HERC Holdings, as a public company separate from New Hertz, although an “ex-dividend” market for Hertz Holdings common stock may develop prior to the Spin-Off. See “—Trading Between the Record Date and the Distribution Date” for an explanation of the when-issued market for New Hertz common stock and the ex-dividend market for Hertz Holdings common stock. Neither Hertz Holdings nor New Hertz can assure you as to the trading price of HERC Holdings or New Hertz common stock prior to, on or after the Spin-Off or as to whether their combined price will be equal to, higher or lower than the price of Hertz Holdings common stock prior to the Spin-Off. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Markets and Ownership of HERC Holdings Common Stock.”

We expect to list New Hertz common stock on the NYSE under the symbol “HTZ,” which is the current trading symbol for Hertz Holdings common stock. Following the Spin-Off, HERC Holdings common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE, but the symbol for its common stock will change to “[ ].”

The shares of New Hertz common stock distributed to Hertz Holdings’ stockholders will be freely transferable, except for shares received by persons that are considered affiliates of New Hertz. Persons that may be considered affiliates of New Hertz after the Spin-Off generally include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by or are under common control with New Hertz, as those terms are generally interpreted for federal securities law purposes. This may include some or all of the executive officers and directors of New Hertz, as well as significant stockholders. In addition, persons who are affiliates of Hertz Holdings on the distribution date may be deemed to be affiliates of New Hertz. Affiliates of New Hertz will be permitted to sell their shares of New Hertz common stock only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as the exemptions afforded by Sections 4(a)(1) or 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 thereunder.

Trading Between the Record Date and the Distribution Date

Between the record date and the distribution date, Hertz Holdings expects that there will be two markets in Hertz Holdings common stock: a “regular way” or “due bills” market and an “ex-dividend” market. Shares of Hertz Holdings common stock that trade on the regular way or due bills market will trade with an entitlement to shares of New Hertz common stock distributed in the Spin-Off, and such shares will settle on a regular way basis, which typically involves settlement on the third full trading day following the date of the trade. Shares that trade on the ex-dividend market will trade without an entitlement to shares of New Hertz common stock distributed in the Spin-Off, and such shares will settle within four trading days after the distribution date. Therefore, if you owned shares of Hertz Holdings common stock as of the record date for the Spin-Off and sell those shares on the regular way or due bills market prior to the distribution date, you also will be trading the shares of New Hertz common stock that would have been distributed to you in the Spin-Off. If you sell those shares of Hertz Holdings common stock on the ex-dividend market prior to the distribution date, you will still receive the shares of New Hertz common stock that were to be distributed to you pursuant to your ownership of the shares of Hertz Holdings common stock. If the Spin-Off does not occur, all ex-dividend trading will be null and void. If ex-dividend trading occurs, the listing of Hertz Holdings common stock will be under the symbol “HTZ” accompanied by the letters “wi.”

Between the record date and the distribution date, a “when-issued” trading market in New Hertz common stock may develop. The when-issued trading market will be a market for shares of New Hertz common stock that will be distributed to Hertz Holdings’ stockholders on the distribution date. If you owned shares of Hertz Holdings common stock on the record date, then you are entitled to shares of New Hertz common stock distributed pursuant to the Spin-Off. You may trade this entitlement to shares of New Hertz common stock, without the shares of Hertz Holdings common stock you own, on the when-issued trading market, and such shares will generally settle within four trading days after the distribution date. If when-issued trading occurs, the listing for New Hertz common stock will be under a temporary trading symbol that is different from its regular way trading symbol and accompanied by the letters “wi.” On the first trading day following the distribution date, when-issued trading with respect to New Hertz common stock will end and regular way trading will begin. If the Spin-Off does not occur, all when-issued trading will be null and void.

No Appraisal Rights

Hertz Holdings’ stockholders will not have any appraisal rights in connection with the Spin-Off.

When and How You Will Receive the Dividend

common stock held by you as of the close of business on [ ], 2016, the record date for the distribution, you will receive one share of New Hertz common stock.

Hertz Holdings will effect the Spin-Off on the distribution date by releasing its shares of New Hertz common stock to be distributed to Computershare Investor Services LLC, the transfer agent and registrar for New Hertz common stock. As part of the Spin-Off, New Hertz will be adopting a book-entry share transfer and registration system for New Hertz common stock. Instead of receiving physical share certificates, registered holders of New Hertz common stock entitled to participate in the Spin-Off will have their shares of New Hertz common stock credited to book-entry accounts established for them by the transfer agent and registrar. The transfer agent and registrar will mail an account statement to each registered holder stating the number of shares of New Hertz common stock credited to the holder’s account.

For those holders of Hertz Holdings common stock that hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, the transfer agent and registrar will credit the shares of New Hertz common stock to the accounts of those nominees as the registered holders of Hertz Holdings common stock. Such nominees, in turn, will credit their customers’ accounts with New Hertz common stock. We anticipate that brokers, banks and other nominees will generally credit their customers’ accounts with New Hertz common stock within three to eight days of the distribution date.

Reverse Stock Split

No vote of Hertz Holdings’ stockholders is required to authorize or effectuate the Spin-Off. However, prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings intends to seek stockholder approval of a reverse stock split with a ratio equal to an integral ratio between 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, inclusive, as determined by the board of directors. Based on discussions with our financial advisors, we believe the trading price of the common stock after the Spin-Off may be significantly lower than the current market price due to the fact that the rental car business will no longer be part of Hertz Holdings. In those circumstances, we believe the reverse stock split may make our common stock a more attractive investment for many investors, particularly investors who have limitations on owning lower-priced stocks. The implementation of the reverse stock split would be effective immediately following the Spin-Off. If the reverse stock split is implemented, the number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced in a proportional manner to the reverse stock split ratio.

DIVIDEND POLICY

Hertz Holdings has not historically paid dividends on its common stock. HERC Holdings’ payment of dividends on its common stock following the Spin-Off will be determined by its board of directors in its sole discretion and will depend on business conditions, its financial condition, earnings, liquidity and capital requirements, any covenants in documents governing its indebtedness and other factors. As of the date of this information statement, Hertz Holdings has no plans to pay dividends on its common stock.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table shows, and the respective footnotes thereto further describe, the cash and cash equivalents and total capitalization of HERC Holdings as of [ ] on an actual basis and as adjusted to reflect the Pro Forma Transactions, as defined in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” which include the related financing transactions. Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off and will be the legal spinnee in the transaction, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of New Hertz will reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off HERC Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of HERC Holdings, including such information presented in this information statement, will reflect the financial information of the equipment rental business of Hertz Holdings as historically operated as part of the consolidated company, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented.

The information below is not necessarily indicative of what our cash and cash equivalents and total capitalization would have been had the Pro Forma Transactions been completed as of [ ]. In addition, it is not indicative of our future cash and cash equivalents and total capitalization. The information below is derived from, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our historical and pro forma financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement, and should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and our unaudited interim and audited annual combined financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement.

SELECTED HISTORICAL COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

The following tables present selected combined financial information and other data for HERC Holdings’ business. The selected combined statement of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, and the selected combined balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 presented below were derived from our audited annual combined financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. The selected combined statement of operations data for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the selected combined balance sheet data as of September 30, 2015 presented below were derived from our unaudited interim combined financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. The selected combined statement of operations data for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the selected combined balance sheet data as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2012 and 2011 were derived from unaudited condensed combined financial statements not included herein.

The combined financial statements include net interest expense on loans receivable from and payable to affiliates and expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically performed by Hertz, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, employee benefits and incentives, insurance and stock-based compensation. These expenses have been allocated to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues, operating expenses, headcount or other relevant measures. Management believes the assumptions underlying the combined financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from Hertz, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the combined financial statements may not include all of the expenses that would have been incurred had we been a stand-alone company during the years presented and may not reflect our combined financial position, results of operations and cash flows had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. Actual costs that would have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 are presented on a pro forma basis to give effect to the Spin-Off and transactions contemplated thereby, including (i) the Spin-Off and the entry into the ancillary agreements to the Spin-Off between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz discussed under “Relationship Between New Hertz and HERC Holdings—Agreements Entered into Between Hertz Holdings and New Hertz”; (ii) the incurrence by Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation, or “HERC,” HERC Holdings’ primary operating subsidiary, of approximately $[ ] billion in new indebtedness in connection with the Spin-Off through the entry into financing arrangements, or the “related financing transactions”; and (iii) HERC’s use of the proceeds from the related financing transactions to make cash transfers to The Hertz Corporation, or “Hertz,” New Hertz’s primary operating subsidiary, and its subsidiaries of approximately $[ ] billion (collectively, the “Pro Forma Transactions”), in each case, as if they had occurred on January 1, 2015. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2016 is presented on a pro forma basis to give effect to the Pro Forma Transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2016. The historical combined financial information has been adjusted in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, or the “pro forma financial statements,” to give effect to pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the applicable Pro Forma Transactions, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. Prior to the Spin-Off, Hertz Holdings intends to seek stockholder approval of a reverse stock split with a ratio equal to an integral ratio between 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, inclusive, as determined by the board of directors. The implementation of the reverse stock split would be effective immediately following the Spin-Off. If the reverse stock split is implemented, the number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced in a proportional manner to the reverse stock split ratio. The following pro forma financial statements do not reflect the effects of this reverse stock split.

The following pro forma financial statements were derived from and should be read in conjunction with the combined financial statements of HERC Holdings as of March 31, 2016 and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. Despite the fact that New Hertz is being spun off from Hertz Holdings in the Spin-Off and will be the legal spinnee in the transaction, for accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz will be considered the spinnor or divesting entity and HERC Holdings will be considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz will be the “accounting successor” to Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of New Hertz will reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off HERC Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of HERC Holdings, including such information presented in this information statement and from which the following pro forma financial statements were derived, will reflect the financial information of the equipment rental business of Hertz Holdings as historically operated as part of the consolidated company, as if HERC Holdings were a stand-alone company for all periods presented.

The pro forma financial statements have been presented for informational purposes only. The pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of what HERC Holdings’ financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the applicable Pro Forma Transactions been completed as of the dates indicated or had HERC Holdings operated as a separate, independent company for the periods presented. In addition, the pro forma financial statements do not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of HERC Holdings. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the pro forma financial statements. The pro forma financial statements also do not project the results of operations or financial position of HERC Holdings for any future period or as of any future date.
