23 Transaction Day Methodology Aligned Operating systems integration complete Transaction days for Dollar/Thrifty now recorded under Hertz methodology Dollar/Thrifty transaction days will now be relatively higher compared to historically recorded Immaterial to 3Q:15; impact beginning in 4Q:15 - Higher transaction days - Lower total RPD - Higher utilization
24 2Q:15 10-Q/A 2Q:15 U.S. RAC fleet depreciation expense error resulted from a process change implemented at the beginning of the year - Cause of error identified; additional control procedures implemented - Error is unique to the way vehicles are transferred between legal entities when sold through retail sales channels, and is not related to our standard depreciation process - As a result of this error, depreciation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, overstated by $21M and $18M, respectively Also corrected an error that resulted in $3M overstatement of U.S. RAC direct operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 There was no change to cash flow as a result of these corrections While each of these corrections were immaterial to the individual line items in which they are recorded, the net effect was material to reported earnings and thus we needed to correct and reissue the statements We are committed to streamlining processes and improving controls to further mitigate the risk of these types of errors occurring in the future

| |
| a. | Represents the increase in amortization of other intangible assets, depreciation of property and equipment and accretion of certain revalued liabilities relating to purchase accounting. Also includes restructuring and restructuring related charges, impairments and asset write-downs. |
| |
| b. | In 2014, represents the increase in depreciation of equipment rental revenue earning equipment based upon its revaluation relating to purchase accounting. |
| |
| c. | In 2014 and 2015, primarily comprised of restructuring and restructuring related charges and impairment charges, expenses associated with the anticipated HERC spin-off transaction announced in March 2014, consulting costs and legal fees related to the accounting review and investigation, expenses associated with acquisitions, integration charges and relocation expenses associated with the Company's relocation of its headquarters to Estero, Florida. In 2015, also includes costs associated with the separation of certain executives. |
| |
| d. | Represents debt-related charges relating to the amortization of deferred debt financing costs and debt discounts. |
| |
| e. | Includes miscellaneous non-recurring or non-cash items. For 2015, primarily represents the gain on the sale of common stock of CAR Inc, offset by a legal reserve in the International Rental Car segment. For 2014, primarily represents a litigation settlement received in relation to a class action lawsuit filed against an original equipment manufacturer stemming from recalls of their vehicles in previous years. |
| |
| f. | Represents a (provision) benefit for income taxes derived utilizing a combined statutory rate of 37% for all periods shown. The combined statutory rate is applied to the adjusted income (loss) before income taxes to arrive at the adjusted (provision) benefit for taxes. The (provision) benefit for taxes related to the adjustments is calculated as the difference between the adjusted (provision) benefit for taxes and the GAAP (provision) benefit for taxes. Previously, we applied the combined statutory rate to our adjustments. Management believes the current approach results in a better indicator of our core earnings. |
| |
| g. | GAAP net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) used in GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share calculations, respectively, includes interest income on convertible senior notes, net of tax of $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. |

NON-GAAP MEASURES AND KEY METRICS - DEFINITIONS AND USE
Hertz Global is the top-level holding company and The Hertz Corporation is Hertz Global's primary operating company (together, the Company). The term “GAAP” refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Definitions of non-GAAP measures are set forth below. Also set forth below is a summary of the reasons why management of the Company believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in the Press Release provide useful information regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations and additional purposes, if any, for which management of the Company utilizes the non-GAAP measures.
Adjusted Pre-Tax Income (Loss) and Adjusted Pre-tax Margin
Adjusted pre-tax income is calculated as income before income taxes plus certain non-cash acquisition accounting charges, debt-related charges relating to the amortization and write-off of debt financing costs and debt discounts and certain one-time charges and non-operational items. Adjusted pre-tax income is important to management because it allows management to assess operational performance of our business, exclusive of the items mentioned above. It also allows management to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as the segment measure of profitability. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows them to assess the operational performance of the Company on the same basis that management uses internally. Adjusted pre-tax margin is adjusted pre-tax income divided by total revenues.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Margin
Adjusted net income is calculated as adjusted pre-tax income less a provision for income taxes derived utilizing a normalized income tax rate of 37%. The normalized income tax rate is management's estimate of our long-term tax rate. Adjusted net income is important to management and investors because it represents our operational performance exclusive of the effects of purchase accounting, debt-related charges, one-time charges and items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors. Adjusted net income margin is adjusted net income divided by total revenues.
Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share
Adjusted net income per diluted share is calculated as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding for the period. Adjusted net income per diluted share is important to management and investors because it represents a measure of our operational performance exclusive of the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, debt-related charges, one-time charges and items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors.

Available Car Days is calculated as average fleet multiplied by the number of days in a period. Average fleet used to calculate available car days in our U.S. Car Rental segment excludes Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles as these vehicles do not have associated transaction days.
Average Fleet
Average Fleet is determined using a simple average of the number of vehicles owned by the company at the beginning and end of a given period. Among other things, average fleet is used to calculate our fleet efficiency which represents the portion of the Company's fleet that is being utilized to generate revenue.
Corporate Restricted Cash (used in the calculation of Net Corporate Debt)
Total restricted cash includes cash and cash equivalents that are not readily available for our normal disbursements. Total restricted cash and equivalents are restricted for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities, our like-kind exchange programs and to satisfy certain of our self-insurance regulatory reserve requirements. Corporate restricted cash is calculated as total restricted cash less restricted cash associated with fleet debt.
Dollar Utilization
Dollar utilization means revenue derived from the rental of equipment divided by the original cost of the equipment including additional capitalized refurbishment costs (with the basis of refurbished assets at the refurbishment date).
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Corporate EBITDA, Adjusted Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted Corporate EBITDA Margin
EBITDA is defined as net income before net interest expense, income taxes and depreciation (which includes revenue earning equipment lease charges) and amortization. Corporate EBITDA, as presented herein, represents EBITDA as adjusted for car rental fleet interest, car rental fleet depreciation and car rental debt-related charges. Adjusted Corporate EBITDA, as presented herein, represents Corporate EBITDA as adjusted for certain other items, as described in more detail in the accompanying schedules.
Management uses EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted Corporate EBITDA as operating performance and liquidity metrics for internal monitoring and planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and monthly operating reviews, as well as to facilitate analysis of investment decisions, profitability and performance trends. Further, EBITDA enables management and investors to isolate the effects on profitability of operating metrics such as revenue, operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, which enables management and investors to evaluate our business segments that are financed differently and have different depreciation characteristics and compare our performance against companies with different capital structures and depreciation policies. We also present Adjusted Corporate EBITDA as a supplemental measure because such information is utilized in the calculation of financial covenants under the Company's senior credit facilities and in the determination of certain executive compensation.
Adjusted Corporate EBITDA Margin is calculated as the ratio of Adjusted Corporate EBITDA to total revenues and is used by the Compensation Committee to determine certain executive compensation, primarily in the form of PSUs.
EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA, Adjusted Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted Corporate EBITDA Margin are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. When evaluating our operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted Corporate EBITDA in isolation of, or as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance and liquidity as determined in accordance with GAAP, such as net income, operating income or net cash provided by operating activities.
Equipment Rental and Rental Related Revenue
Equipment rental and rental related revenue consists of all revenue, net of discounts, associated with the rental of equipment including charges for delivery, loss damage waivers and fueling, but excluding revenue arising from the sale of equipment, parts and supplies and certain other ancillary revenue. Rental and rental related revenue is adjusted in all periods to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This statistic is important to our management and to investors as it reflects time and mileage and ancillary charges for equipment on rent and is comparable with the reporting of other industry participants.
Fleet Efficiency
Fleet efficiency is calculated by dividing total transaction days by the available car days. Average fleet used to calculate fleet efficiency in our U.S. Car Rental segment excludes Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles as these vehicles do not have associated transaction days.
Fleet Growth
U.S. and International car rental fleet growth is defined as car rental fleet capital expenditures, net of proceeds from disposals, plus car rental fleet depreciation and net car rental fleet financing which includes borrowings, repayments and the change in fleet restricted cash. Worldwide equipment rental fleet growth is defined as worldwide equipment rental fleet expenditures, net of proceeds from disposals, plus depreciation.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities, excluding depreciation of revenue earning equipment, net of car rental and equipment rental fleet growth and property and equipment net expenditures. Free cash flow is important to management and investors as it represents the cash available for acquisitions and the reduction of corporate debt.
Net Corporate Debt
Net corporate debt is calculated as total debt excluding fleet debt less cash and equivalents and corporate restricted cash. Corporate debt consists of our Senior Term Facility; Senior ABL Facility; Senior Notes; Promissory Notes; Convertible Senior Notes; and certain other indebtedness of our domestic and foreign subsidiaries.
Net Corporate Debt is important to management and investors as it helps measure our leverage. Net Corporate Debt also assists in the evaluation of our ability to service our non-fleet-related debt without reference to the expense associated with the fleet debt, which is collateralized by assets not available to lenders under the non-fleet debt facilities.
Net Depreciation Per Unit Per Month
Net depreciation per unit per month is calculated by dividing depreciation of revenue earning equipment and lease charges, net by the average fleet in each period and then dividing by the number of months in the period reported with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is useful in analyzing underlying trends. Average fleet used to calculate net depreciation per unit per month in our U.S. Car Rental segment includes Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles as these vehicles have associated lease charges. Net depreciation per unit per month represents the amount of average depreciation expense and lease charges, net per vehicle per month.
Restricted Cash Associated with Fleet Debt (used in the calculation of Net Fleet Debt and Corporate Restricted Cash)
Restricted cash associated with fleet debt is restricted for the purchase of revenue earning, vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities and our car rental like-kind exchange program.
Revenue Per Available Car Day ("RACD")
Revenue per available car day is calculated as total revenues less revenue from fleet subleases and ancillary revenue associated with retail car sales divided by available car days, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This metric is important to our management and investors as it represents a measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the car rental business and encompasses the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control and provides a measure of revenue production relative to overall capacity.
Same Store Revenue Growth/Decline
Same store revenue growth is calculated as the year-over-year change in revenue for locations that are open at the end of the period reported and have been operating under our direction for more than twelve months. The same-store revenue amounts are adjusted in all periods to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency.
Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends.
Time Utilization
Time utilization means the percentage of time an equipment unit is on-rent during a given period.
Total Net Debt
Total net debt is calculated as total debt less total cash and cash equivalents and total restricted cash. This measure is important to management, investors and ratings agencies as it helps measure our gross leverage.
Total RPD
Total RPD is calculated as total revenue less ancillary revenue associated with retail car sales, divided by the total number of transaction days, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This metric is important to our management and investors as it represents a measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the car rental business and encompasses the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control.
Transaction Days
Transaction days represent the total number of 24-hour periods, with any partial period counted as one transaction day, that vehicles were on rent (the period between when a rental contract is opened and closed) in a given period. Thus, it is possible for a vehicle to attain more than one transaction day in a 24-hour period. Late in the third quarter of 2015 the Company fully integrated the Dollar Thrifty and Hertz counter systems and as a result aligned the transaction day calculation in the Hertz system. As a result of this alignment, Hertz determined that there was an impact to the calculation. The impact to the third quarter of 2015 is negligible, however Hertz expects that transaction days for the US RAC segment will increase by approximately 1% prospectively relative to the historic calculation.
