ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

On September 17, 2010, The Hertz Corporation (“Hertz”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (“Hertz Holdings”), entered into an amendment to each of its term loan credit facility (the “Term Facility”) and asset-based revolving loan credit facility (the “ABL Facility”).  The amendments provide, among other things, for additional capacity under the covenants in the credit facilities to incur refinancing and acquisition indebtedness and, in connection with Hertz Holdings’ pending acquisition of Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (“Dollar Thrifty”), the amendments would facilitate the anticipated divestiture of the Advantage Rent A Car business, carve out a Dollar Thrifty insurance related subsidiary from certain credit agreement restrictions and provide for additional acquisition capacity under the Term Facility. The amendment to the ABL Facility increases the overall letter of credit sublimit and allows for Australian dollar denominated letters of credit.
