Holdings, Inc. (formerly Al egis Corporation), which acquired our outstanding capital stock from RCA Corporation in
1985. On December 21, 2005, investment funds associated with or designated by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC

Equity, Inc.), or col ectively the "Sponsors," acquired al of our common stock from Ford Holdings LLC ("Ford Holdings").
We refer to the acquisition of al of our common stock by the Sponsors as the "Acquisition."
On May 9, 2011, Hertz Holdings announced an offer to exchange each issued and outstanding share of common
stock of Dol ar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. ("Dol ar Thrifty") for $57.60 in cash and 0.8546 shares of Hertz Holdings
common stock. The offer for Dol ar Thrifty common stock is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, a
minimum tender of a number of shares of Dol ar Thrifty common stock which, together with Dol ar Thrifty shares then
owned by Hertz Holdings and its subsidiaries, represents at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Dol ar
Thrifty common stock on a ful y diluted basis, as wel as the receipt of required regulatory approvals. See "Summary
--Recent Developments--Proposed Acquisition of Dollar Thrifty" and "Risk Factors--Risks Related to Acquisition of
Dol ar Thrifty."

Table of Contents
SUMMARY
This summary highlights selected information regarding us and should be read as an introduction to the more
detailed information included elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you
should consider before investing in the Exchange Notes. You should read the following summary carefully together
with the more detailed information, the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 16, our audited annual
consolidated financial statements and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including the
respective accompanying notes, included elsewhere in this prospectus before making any investment decision.
Our Company
We own what we believe is the largest worldwide airport general use car rental brand, operating from
approximately 8,000 locations in approximately 150 countries as of June 30, 2011. Our Hertz brand name is one of the
most recognized in the world, signifying leadership in quality rental services and products. Hertz operates both corporate
and licensee locations in cities and airports in North America, Europe, Latin America, Australia, Asia and New Zealand.
In addition, we have licensee locations in cities and airports in Africa and the Middle East. We are the only car rental
company that has an extensive network of company-operated rental locations both in the United States and in all major
European markets. We believe that we maintain the leading airport car rental brand market share, by overall reported
revenues, in the United States and are one of the leading airport car rental brands at the 94 major airports in Europe
where we have company-operated locations and where data regarding car rental concessionaire activity is available. We
believe that we also maintain the second largest market share, by revenues, in the off-airport car rental market in the
United States. In our equipment rental business segment, we rent equipment through 315 branches in the United States,
Canada, France, Spain, Italy, China and Saudi Arabia, as wel as through our international licensees. We and our
predecessors have been in the car rental business since 1918 and in the equipment rental business since 1965. We have
a diversified revenue base and a highly variable cost structure and are able to dynamically manage fleet capacity, the
most significant determinant of our costs. Our revenues have grown at a compound annual growth rate of 4.7% over the
last 20 years, with year-over-year growth in 16 of those 20 years. For the year ended December 31, 2010 and the six
months ended June 30, 2011, we had total revenues of approximately $7.6 bil ion and $3.9 bil ion, respectively.
Our Business Segments
Our business consists of two reportable segments, car rental and equipment rental. General corporate expenses,
certain interest expense (including net interest on corporate debt), as wel as other business activities, such as
third-party claim management services are included as "other reconciling items."
Car Rental: Our "company-operated" rental locations are those through which we, or an agent of ours, rent cars
that we own or lease. We maintain a substantial network of company-operated car rental locations both in the United
States and international y, and what we believe to be the largest number of company-operated airport car rental
locations in the world, enabling us to provide consistent quality and service worldwide. Our licensees and associates also
operate rental locations in approximately 150 countries and jurisdictions, including most of the countries in which we have
company-operated rental locations.
Equipment Rental: We believe, based on an article in Rental Equipment Register published in May 2011, that HERC
(as defined above in "General Information") is one of the largest equipment rental companies in the United States and
Canada combined. HERC rents a broad range of earthmoving equipment, material handling equipment, aerial and
electrical equipment, air compressors, generators,

Table of Contents
pumps, smal tools, compaction equipment and construction-related trucks. HERC also derives revenues from the sale of
new equipment and consumables.
Our Markets
We operate in the global car rental industry and in the equipment rental industry.
Worldwide Car Rental
We believe that the global car rental industry exceeds $35 bil ion in annual revenues. According to Auto Rental
News, car rental revenues in the United States are estimated to be approximately $20 bil ion for 2010 and grew in 2010
by 2.5%. We believe car rental revenues in Europe account for approximately $15 bil ion in annual revenues, with the
airport portion of the industry comprising approximately 40% of the total. Within Europe, the largest markets are France,
Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and Spain. We believe total rental revenues for the car rental industry in Europe in
2010 were approximately $11.9 bil ion in nine countries--France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, The
Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium and Luxembourg--where we have company-operated rental locations and
approximately $2.6 bil ion in eight other countries--Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Austria and
Finland--where our brand is present through our licensees.
We estimate that rentals by airline travelers at or near airports, or "airport rentals," accounted for approximately
one-half of the total market in the United States in 2010. This portion of the market is significantly influenced by
developments in the travel industry and particularly in airline passenger traffic, or "enplanements." We believe domestic
enplanements increased in 2010 by approximately 1.9% and are expected to increase by 3% in 2011. The International
Air Transport Association, or "IATA," projected in June 2011 that annual global enplanements would increase 4.4% in
2011.
The off-airport portion of the industry has rental volume primarily driven by local business use, leisure travel and the
replacement of cars being repaired. Because Europe has general y demonstrated a lower historical reliance on air travel,
the European off-airport car rental market is significantly more developed than it is in the United States.
Worldwide Equipment Rental
We estimate the size of the U.S. equipment rental industry, which is highly fragmented with few national
competitors and many regional and local operators, declined to approximately $28 bil ion in annual revenues for 2011
from approximately $29 bil ion in 2009, but the part of the rental industry dealing with equipment of the type HERC rents
is somewhat smaller than that. We believe that the industry grew at a 1.6% compound annual growth rate between 2000
and 2011. Other market data indicates that the equipment rental industries in France, Spain, Italy and China generate
approximately $4.5 bil ion, $2.5 bil ion, $2.1 bil ion and $1.1 bil ion in annual revenues, respectively, although the portions
of those markets in which HERC competes are smaller.
The equipment rental industry serves a broad range of customers from small local contractors to large industrial
national accounts and encompasses a wide range of rental equipment from small tools to heavy earthmoving equipment.
We believe U.S. non-residential construction spending decreased at an annual rate of 6% in 2010 and is expected to
decrease at an annual rate of 1% in 2011. We also believe that rental equipment accounted for approximately 40% of al
equipment sold into the U.S. construction industry in 2010, up from approximately 5% in 1993. In addition, we believe
that the trend toward rental instead of ownership of equipment in the U.S. construction industry wil continue and that as
much as 50% of the equipment used in the industry could be rental equipment by 2014.
