The occurrence and continuation of an amortization event related to a series of notes may result in HVF III being required to pay principal on such series of notes earlier than anticipated. Amortization events include, among other things, the failure to pay principal or interest in a timely manner, the failure to maintain sufficient assets compared to the outstanding amount of debt, the failure to maintain sufficient liquidity in the form of reserve accounts or letters of credit, the presence of certain liens on HVF III’s assets, any misrepresentations by HVF III, any covenant defaults and defaults by either HVF III or THC, as administrator of HVF III under the Administration Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2021, which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.9 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2021. In the event that one or more amortization events occurs and is continuing, holders of such series of notes may force HVF III or BNYM on their behalf to sell vehicles and, if a default occurs under the Master Motor Vehicle Operating Lease and Servicing Agreement (HVF III) (the “Lease”), dated as of June 29, 2021, which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2021, the holders of such series of notes may force THC and/or DTG Operations, Inc., a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of THC, each as a lessee under the Lease, to return vehicles for sale by HVF III. Proceeds of any such sales made during the enforcement of remedies are required to repay the applicable series of notes and any notes issued by HVF III in the future.
The net proceeds of the Class E Notes are expected to be used for the future acquisition or refinancing of eligible vehicles to be leased under the Lease or, in certain circumstances, any excess of the proceeds could be distributed by HVF III to THC.
The foregoing descriptions of the Class E Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of (i) the Series 2022-5 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (ii) the Series 2023-2 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (iii) the Series 2023-4 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (iv) the Series 2024-1 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (v) the Series 2024-2 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (vi) the Series 2025-1 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (vii) the Series 2025-2 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (viii) the Series 2025-3 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.8 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (ix) the Series 2025-4 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, (x) the Series 2025-5 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.10 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, and (xi) the Series 2025-6 Supplement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.11 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

The Class A Maximum Principal Amount until May 7, 2027 is $3.240 billion, and thereafter the Class A Maximum Principal Amount is $2.980 billion until May 5, 2028, after giving effect to the terms of Amendment No. 2 to Third A&R Series 2021-A Supplement.
The foregoing description of Amendment No. 2 to Third A&R Series 2021-A Supplement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment No. 2 to Third A&R Series 2021-A Supplement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.12 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
European ABS Amendments
On April 28, 2026, affiliates of THC entered into amendments to the securitization platform for financing activities relating to such affiliates' vehicle fleets Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain (the “European ABS”) in order to: (i) extend the maturity of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes issued thereunder to April 2028; (ii) increase the commitment size to an aggregate principal amount equal to €1,293,062,500; and (iii) document certain updates to the list of committed note purchasers, conduit investors and funding agents named therein (the “Amendments”).
Pursuant to the European ABS, International Fleet Financing No. 2 B.V. (“IFF No. 2”), an indirect, special purpose subsidiary of THC, is party to an issuer facility agreement originally dated September 25, 2018 between, among others, IFF No. 2, Hertz Europe Limited (as Administrator), BNPP Paribas Trust Corporation UK Limited (the “Security Trustee”), and Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank (as Administrative Agent) (the “Issuer Facility Agreement”), which includes defined terms as set forth in a Master Definitions and Constructions Agreement (the “MDCA”). IFF No. 2’s proceeds from the Issuer Facility Agreement are made available on a revolving basis to certain special purpose fleet subsidiaries of THC (the “Fleet Companies”) for their purchases of rental vehicles, and those vehicle fleets serve as the underlying collateral for the Issuer Facility Agreement. Certain of THC’s international operating subsidiaries lease the vehicles from the Fleet Companies for rental to customers. THC has guaranteed certain obligations of the international operating subsidiaries to the Fleet Companies pursuant to a Performance Guarantee and Indemnity Deed dated December 21, 2021, as amended and/or restated from time to time (the "Guarantee").
In connection with the Amendments, each of the Issuer Facility Agreement and the MDCA were amended and restated, effective as of April 28, 2026. For the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantee was not amended pursuant to these Amendments.
The foregoing descriptions of the amendments to the Issuer Facility Agreement and the MDCA are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 10.13 and 10.14, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

(Transfer Restrictions for Global Notes). Upon receipt by the Registrar, at the office of the Registrar, of (i) written instructions
given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Clearing Agency Participant directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be
credited to a specified Clearing Agency Participant’s account a beneficial interest in such 144A Global Note in a principal amount

The Amortization Events set forth above are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Amortization Events set forth in the Base Indenture applicable to all Series of Notes.

subject to an injunction, estoppel or other stay or a Lien (other than any Lien described in clause (iii) of the definition of Series 2024-2
Permitted Liens) or (ii) other than as a result of a Series 2024-2 Permitted Lien, the Trustee fails to have a valid and perfected

(j) any Administrator Default shall have occurred;
40
(k) any of the Series 2024-2 Related Documents or any material portion thereof shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, enforceable in accordance with its terms (other than in accordance with the terms thereof or as otherwise expressly permitted in the Series 2024-2 Related Documents) or Hertz, any Lessee or HVF III shall so assert any of the foregoing in writing and such written assertion shall not have been rescinded within ten (10) consecutive Business Days following the date of such written assertion, in each case, other than any such cessation (i) resulting from the application of the Bankruptcy Code (other than as a result of an Event of Bankruptcy with respect to HVF III, any Lessee, or Hertz in any capacity) or (ii) as a result of any waiver, supplement, modification, amendment or other action not prohibited by the Series 2024-2 Related Documents;
(l) HVF III fails to comply with any of its other agreements or covenants in any Series 2024-2 Related Document and the failure to so comply materially and adversely affects the interests of the Series 2024-2 Noteholders and continues to materially and adversely affect the interests of the Series 2024-2 Noteholders for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days after the earlier of (i) the date on which an Authorized Officer of HVF III obtains actual knowledge thereof or (ii) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to HVF III by the Trustee or to HVF III and the Trustee by the Majority Series 2024-2 Controlling Class; or
(m) any representation made by HVF III in any Series 2024-2 Related Document is false and such false representation materially and adversely affects the interests of the Series 2024-2 Noteholders and the event or condition that caused such representation to be false is not cured for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days after the earlier of (i) the date on which an Authorized Officer of HVF III obtains actual knowledge thereof or (ii) the date that written notice thereof is given to HVF III by the Trustee or to HVF III and the Trustee by the Majority Series 2024-2 Controlling Class.
Then, in the case of:
(i) any event described in Sections 7.1(a) through (d) (Amortization Events), an “Amortization Event” with respect to the Series 2024-2 Notes will immediately occur without any notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Series 2024-2 Noteholder, and
(ii) any event described in Sections 7.1(e) through (m) (Amortization Events), so long as such event is continuing, either the Trustee may, by written notice to HVF III, or the Majority Series 2024-2 Controlling Class may, by written notice to HVF III and the Trustee, declare that an “Amortization Event” with respect to the Series 2024-2 Notes has occurred as of the date of the notice.
An Amortization Event, as well as any Potential
Amortization Event related thereto, with respect to the Series 2024-2 Notes described in Sections 7.1(c) through (m) (Amortization
Events) above may be waived with the written consent of the Majority Series 2024-2 Controlling Class. An Amortization Event,
as well as any Potential Amortization Event related thereto, with respect to the Series 2024-2 Notes described in Sections 7.1(a) and

the Class C Noteholders holding more than 50% of the Class C Principal Amount, the Class D Noteholders holding more than
50% of the Class D Principal Amount and the Class E Noteholders holding more than 50% of the Class E Principal Amount,
if any, at the time of such Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event.
For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Potential Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2024-2 Notes, if the event or condition giving rise (directly or indirectly) to such Potential Amortization Event ceases to be continuing (through cure, waiver or otherwise), then such Potential Amortization Event will cease to exist and will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose under the Series 2024-2 Related Documents.
41
The Amortization Events set forth above are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Amortization Events set forth in the Base Indenture applicable to all Series of Notes.

(b) HVF III, the Trustee and any other Paying Agent are hereby authorized to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Series 2025-1 Noteholder sufficient funds for the payment of any such tax that, in their respective sole discretion, is legally owed or required to be withheld by them, including in connection with FATCA (but such authorization shall not prevent HVF III from contesting any such tax in appropriate legal proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such legal proceedings), and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. If any Series 2025-1 Noteholder or Note Owner of a Series 2025-1 Note wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, HVF III, the Trustee or such other Paying Agent shall reasonably cooperate with such Person in providing readily available information so long as such Person agrees to reimburse HVF III, the Trustee or such Paying Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Nothing herein shall impose an obligation, nor relieve any obligation imposed under applicable law, on the part of HVF III, the Trustee or any other Paying Agent to determine the amount of any tax or withholding obligation on their part or in respect of the Series 2025-1 Notes.

(v) Class A Delayed Funding Procedures.
(A) A Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser, upon receipt of any notice of a Class A Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) (Class A Advance Requests), promptly (but in no event later than 6:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class A Advance) may notify HVF III in writing (a “Class A Delayed Funding Notice”) of its election to designate such Class A Advance as a delayed Class A Advance (such Class A Advance, a “Class A Designated Delayed Advance”). If such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser’s ratable portion of such Class A Advance exceeds its Class A Required Non-Delayed Amount (such excess amount, the “Class A Permitted Delayed Amount”), then the Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser also shall include in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice the portion of such Class A Advance (such amount as specified in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice, not to exceed such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser’s Class A Permitted Delayed Amount, the “Class A Delayed Amount”) that the Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser has elected to fund on a U.S. Government Securities Business Day that is on or prior to the thirty-fifth (35th) day following the proposed date of such Class A Advance (such date as specified in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice, the “Class A Delayed Funding Date”) rather than on the date for such Class A Advance specified in the related Class A Advance Request.

(B) If (A) one or more Class A Delayed Funding Purchasers provide a Class A Delayed Funding Notice to HVF III specifying a Class A Delayed Amount in respect of any Class A Advance and (B) HVF III shall not have revoked the notice of the Class A Advance by 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the U.S. Government Securities Business Day preceding the proposed date of such Class A Advance, then HVF III, by no later than 11:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the U.S. Government Securities Business Day preceding the date of such proposed Class A Advance, may (but shall have no obligation to) direct each Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser to fund an additional portion of such Class A Advance on the proposed date of such Class A Advance equal to such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s proportionate share (based upon the relative Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchasers) of the aggregate Class A Delayed Amount with respect to the proposed Class A Advance; provided that, (i) no Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser shall be required to fund any portion of its proportionate share of such aggregate Class A Delayed Amount that would cause its Class A Investor Group Principal Amount to exceed its Class A Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount and (ii) any Class A Conduit Investor, if any, in the Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Class A Investor Group may, in its sole discretion, agree to fund such proportionate share of such aggregate Class A Delayed Amount.
(C) Upon receipt of any notice of a Class A Delayed Amount in respect of a Class A Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(v)(B) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures), a Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser, promptly (but in no event later than 6:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class A Advance) may notify HVF III in writing (a “Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice”) of its election to decline to fund a portion of its proportionate share of such Class A Delayed Amount (such portion, the “Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount”); provided that, the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount shall not exceed the excess, if any, of (A) such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s proportionate share of such Class A Delayed Amount over (B) such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Class A Required Non-Delayed Amount (after giving effect to the funding of any amount in respect of such Class A Advance to be made by such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser or the Class A Conduit Investor in such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Class A Investor Group) (such excess amount, the “Class A Second Permitted Delayed Amount”), and upon any such election, such Class A Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser shall include in the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount.
(vi) Funding Class A Advances.
(A) Subject to the other conditions set forth in this Section 2.2(a) (Class A Advances), on the date of each Class A Advance, each Class A Conduit Investor and Class A Committed Note Purchaser(s) funding such Class A Advance shall make available to HVF III its portion of the amount of such Class A Advance (other than any Class A Delayed Amount) by wire transfer in U.S. dollars in same day funds to the Series 2021-A Principal Collection Account no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Class A Advance. Proceeds from any Class A Advance shall be deposited into the Series 2021-A Principal Collection Account.
17
(B) A Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser that delivered a Class A Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class A Delayed Amount shall be obligated to fund such Class A Delayed Amount on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date in the manner set forth in the next succeeding sentence, irrespective of whether the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date with respect to the Class A Notes shall have occurred on or prior to such Class A Delayed Funding Date or HVF III would be able to satisfy the Class A Funding Conditions on such Class A Delayed Funding Date. Such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser shall (i) pay the sum of the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, to HVF III no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date by wire transfer in U.S. dollars in same day funds to the Series 2021-A Principal Collection Account, and (ii) pay the Class A Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, on such related Class A Delayed Funding Date to each applicable Class A Funding Agent in immediately available funds for the ratable benefit of the related Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchasers that funded the Class A Delayed Amount on the date of the Class A Advance related to such Class A Delayed Amount in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(v)(B) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures), based on the relative amount of such Class A Delayed Amount funded by such Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchaser on the date of such Class A Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(v)(B) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures).
(vii) Class A Funding Defaults. If, by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of any Class A Advance, one or more Class A Committed Note Purchasers in a Class A Investor Group (each, a “Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser,” and each Class A Committed Note Purchaser in the related Class A Investor Group that is not a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser, a “Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser”) fails to make its portion of such Class A Advance, available to HVF III pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(vi) (Funding Class A Advances) (the aggregate amount unavailable to HVF III as a result of any such failure being herein called a “Class A Advance Deficit”), then the Class A Funding Agent for such Class A Investor Group, by no later than 2:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable date of such Class A Advance, shall instruct each Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser in the same Class A Investor Group as the Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser to pay, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), in immediately available funds, to the Series 2021-A Principal Collection Account, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (based upon the relative Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchasers) of the Class A Advance Deficit and (ii) the amount by which such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (by Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage) of the Class A Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount for such Class A Investor Group exceeds the portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount for such Class A Investor Group funded by such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser (determined after giving effect to all Class A Advances already made by such Class A Investor Group on such date). Subject to Section 1.3 (Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions), a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser shall forthwith, upon demand, pay to the applicable Class A Funding Agent for the ratable benefit of the Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchasers all amounts paid by each such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser on behalf of such Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date a payment was made by a Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser until the date such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser has been paid such amounts in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus 0.50% per annum. For the avoidance of doubt, no Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser that has provided a Class A Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class A Advance shall be considered to be in default of its obligation to fund its Class A Delayed Amount or be treated as a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser hereunder unless and until it has failed to fund the Class A Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount or the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(vi)(B) (Funding Class A Advances).
18

(a) All payments by HVF III of principal of, and interest on, the Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder (including fees) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, documentary, property, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding in the case of any Affected Person (x) net income, franchise or similar taxes (including branch profits taxes or alternative minimum tax) imposed or levied on the Affected Person as a result of a connection between the Affected Person and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising from such Affected Person having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced by, this Series 2021-A Supplement), (y) with respect to any Affected Person organized under the laws of the jurisdiction other than the United States (“Foreign Affected Person”), any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to the Foreign Affected Person at the time the Foreign Affected Person becomes a party to (or acquires a participation in) this Series 2021-A Supplement (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Foreign Affected Person (or its assignor, if any) was already entitled, at the time of the designation of the new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from HVF III with respect to withholding tax and (z) United States federal withholding taxes that would not have been imposed but for a failure by an Affected Person (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to such Affected Person) to comply with the requirements of current Sections 1471-1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement or treaty among Governmental Authorities and published administrative guidance, in each case implementing such Sections of the Code (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”).
(b) Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against any Affected Person with respect to any payment received by such Affected Person or its agent from HVF III, such Affected Person or its agent may pay such Taxes and HVF III will promptly upon receipt of written notice stating the amount of such Taxes pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such person after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such person would have received had no such Taxes been asserted.
44
(c) If HVF III fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Affected Person or its agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, HVF III shall indemnify the Affected Person and their agent for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any such Affected Person or its agent as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 3.8 (Taxes), a distribution hereunder by the agent for the relevant Affected Person shall be deemed a payment by HVF III.
(d) Each Foreign Affected Person shall execute and deliver to HVF III, prior to the initial due date of any payments hereunder and to the extent permissible under then current law, and on or about the first scheduled payment date in each calendar year thereafter, one or more (as HVF III may reasonably request) United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, Forms W-8BEN-E, Forms W-8ECI or Forms W 9, or successor applicable forms, or such other forms or documents (or successor forms or documents), appropriately completed, as may be applicable to establish the extent, if any, to which a payment to such Affected Person is exempt from withholding or deduction of Taxes. HVF III shall not, however, be required to pay any increased amount under this Section 3.8 (Taxes) to any Affected Person that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States if such Affected Person fails to comply with the requirements set forth in this paragraph.
(e) If the Affected Person determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.8 (Taxes), it shall pay over such refund to HVF III (but only to the extent of amounts paid under this Section 3.8 (Taxes) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Affected Person and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund), provided that HVF III, upon the request of the Affected Person, agrees to repay the amount paid over to HVF III (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Affected Person in the event the Affected Person is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. This Section 3.8 (Taxes) shall not be construed to require the Affected Person to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to HVF III or any other Person.
Section 3.09 Series 2021-A Carrying Charges; Survival. Any amounts payable by HVF III under the Specified Cost Sections shall constitute Series 2021-A Carrying Charges. The agreements in the Specified Cost Sections and Section 3.10 (Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment) shall survive the termination of this Series 2021-A Supplement and the Base Indenture and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.
Section 3.10 Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment.
(a) Each Affected Person shall be deemed to have agreed that it shall, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstance referred to in any Specified Cost Section, use commercially reasonable efforts (to the extent not inconsistent with its internal policies of general application) to minimize the costs, expenses, taxes or other liabilities incurred by it and payable to it by HVF III pursuant to such Specified Cost Section.
(b) In determining any amounts payable to it by HVF III pursuant to any Specified Cost Section, each Affected Person shall treat HVF III the same as or better than all similarly situated Persons (as determined by such Affected Person in its reasonable discretion) and such Affected Person may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its reasonable discretion) shall deem applicable so long as it applies such method to other similar transactions, such that HVF III is treated the same as, or better than, all such other similarly situated Persons with respect to such other similar transactions.
Section 3.11 Timing Threshold for Specified Cost Sections. Notwithstanding anything in this Series 2021-A Supplement to the contrary, HVF III shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Affected Person pursuant to any Specified Cost Section in respect of any amount otherwise owing pursuant to any Specified Cost Section that arose during any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such Affected Person’s obtaining knowledge thereof, except that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. If, after the payment of any amounts by HVF III pursuant to any Specified Cost Section, any applicable law, rule or regulation in respect of which a payment was made is thereafter determined to be invalid or inapplicable to such Affected Person, then such Affected Person, within sixty (60) days after such determination, shall repay any amounts paid to it by HVF III hereunder in respect of such Change in Law.

(vi) The Series 2021-A Accounts shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, regardless of any provision of any other agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in Section 4.1 (Granting Clause), Section 4.2 (Series 2021-A Accounts) or this Section 4.3 (Trustee as Securities Intermediary) to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that as permitted by Section 8-504(c)(1) of the New York UCC, with respect to any Series 2021-A Account, the Securities Intermediary may satisfy the duty in Section 8-504(a) of the New York UCC with respect to any cash credited to such Series 2021-A Account by crediting such Series 2021-A Account a general unsecured claim against the Securities Intermediary, as a bank, payable on demand, for the amount of such cash.

Following the date of any increase in the Class A Maximum Principal Amount, any increase in the Class B Principal Amount or any increase in the Class C Principal Amount issued at a floating rate, HVF III shall adjust the Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps within ten (10) Business Days. The Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps shall provide, in the aggregate, that the aggregate notional amount of all Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps shall amortize such that the aggregate notional amount of all Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps, as of any date of determination, shall be equal to or greater than the product of (a) the sum of the Class A Maximum Principal Amount, the Class B Principal Amount and the Class C Principal Amount issued at a floating rate, as of the earlier of such date and the Expected Final Payment Date and (b) the percentage set forth on Schedule III corresponding to such date, and HVF III shall maintain, and, if necessary, amend existing Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps (including in connection with a Class A Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase, a Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase or a Class C Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase or the addition of a Class A Additional Investor Group, a Class B Additional Investor Group or a Class C Additional Investor Group) or acquire one or more additional Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps, such that the Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps, in the aggregate, shall provide that the notional amount of all Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps shall amortize such that the aggregate notional amount of all Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps, as of any date of determination, shall be equal to or greater than the product of (a) the sum of the Class A Maximum Principal Amount, the Class B Principal Amount and the Class C Principal Amount, issued at a floating rate, as of the earlier of such date and the Expected Final Payment Date and (b) the percentage set forth on Schedule III corresponding to such date. The strike rate of each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap shall not be greater than 7.00%.

(b) Failure to Remain an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider. Each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap shall provide that, if as of any date of determination the Interest Rate Cap Provider (or if the present and future obligations of such Interest Rate Cap Provider are guaranteed pursuant to a guarantee (in form and in substance which satisfies the other requirements set forth in such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap), the related guarantor) with respect thereto is not an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider as of such date of determination, then such Interest Rate Cap Provider will be required, at such Interest Rate Cap Provider’s expense, to obtain a replacement interest rate cap on the same terms as such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap from an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider within the time period specified in the related Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap and, simultaneously with such replacement, HVF III shall terminate the Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap being replaced or such Interest Rate Cap Provider shall obtain a guarantee from a replacement guarantor that satisfies the Initial Counterparty Required Ratings with respect to the present and future obligations of such Interest Rate Cap Provider under such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap; provided that, no termination of the Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap shall occur until HVF III has entered into a replacement Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap or obtained a guarantee pursuant to this Section 4.4(b) (Failure to Remain an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider).
(c) Collateral Posting for Ineligible Interest Rate Cap Providers. Each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap shall provide that, if the Interest Rate Cap Provider with respect thereto is required to obtain a replacement as described in Section 4.4(b) (Failure to Remain an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider) and such replacement is not obtained within the period specified in the Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap, then such Interest Rate Cap Provider must, until such replacement is obtained or such Interest Rate Cap Provider again becomes an Eligible Interest Rate Cap Provider, post and maintain collateral in order to meet its obligations under such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap in an amount determined pursuant to the credit support annex entered into in connection with such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap (a “Credit Support Annex”).

51
(e) Treatment of Collateral Posted. Each Series 2021-A Noteholder by its acceptance of a Series 2021-A Note hereby acknowledges and agrees, and directs the Trustee to acknowledge and agree, and the Trustee, at such direction, hereby acknowledges and agrees, that any collateral posted by an Interest Rate Cap Provider pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above (A) is collateral solely for the obligations of such Interest Rate Cap Provider under its Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap, (B) does not constitute collateral for the Series 2021-A Notes (provided that in order to secure and provide for the payment of the Note Obligations with respect to the Series 2021-A Notes, HVF III has pledged each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap and its security interest in any collateral posted in connection therewith as collateral for the Series 2021-A Notes), (C) will in no event be available to satisfy any obligations of HVF III hereunder or otherwise unless and until such Interest Rate Cap Provider defaults in its obligations under its Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap and such collateral is applied in accordance with the terms of such Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap to satisfy such defaulted obligations of such Interest Rate Cap Provider, and (D) shall be held by the Trustee in a segregated account in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Support Annex.
(f) Proceeds from Series 2021-A Interest Rate Caps. HVF III shall require all proceeds of each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap (including amounts received in respect of the obligations of the related Interest Rate Cap Provider from a guarantor or from the application of collateral posted by such Interest Rate Cap Provider) to be paid to the Series 2021-A Interest Collection Account, and the Administrator hereby directs the Trustee to deposit, and the Trustee shall so deposit, any proceeds it receives under each Series 2021-A Interest Rate Cap into the Series 2021-A Interest Collection Account.
Section 4.05 Demand Notes.
(a) Trustee Authorized to Make Demands. The Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2021-A Noteholders, shall be the only Person authorized to make a demand for payment on any Series 2021-A Demand Note.
(b) Modification of Demand Note. Other than pursuant to a payment made upon a demand thereon by the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.5(c) (Principal Deficit Amount – Draws on Series 2021-A Demand Note), HVF III shall not reduce the amount of any Series 2021-A Demand Note or forgive amounts payable thereunder so that the aggregate undrawn principal amount of the Series 2021-A Demand Notes after such forgiveness or reduction is less than the greater of (i) the Series 2021-A Letter of Credit Liquidity Amount as of the date of such reduction or forgiveness and (ii) an amount equal to 2.0% of the Series 2021-A Principal Amount as of the date of such reduction or forgiveness. Other than in connection with a reduction or forgiveness in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.5(b) (Modification of Demand Note) or an increase in the stated amount of any Series 2021-A Demand Note, HVF III shall not agree to any amendment of any Series 2021-A Demand Note without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Series 2021-A Required Noteholders.
Section 4.06 Subordination. The Series-Specific 2021-A Collateral has been pledged to the Trustee to secure the Series 2021-A Notes. For all purposes hereunder and for the avoidance of doubt, the Series-Specific 2021-A Collateral and each Series 2021-A Letter of Credit will be held by the Trustee solely for the benefit of Series 2021-A Noteholders, and no Noteholder of any Series of Notes other than the Series 2021-A Notes will have any right, title or interest in, to or under the Series-Specific 2021-A Collateral or any Series 2021-A Letter of Credit. For the avoidance of doubt, if it is determined that the Series 2021-A Noteholders have any right, title or interest in, to or under the Series-Specific Collateral with respect to any Series of Notes other than Series 2021-A Notes, then the Series 2021-A Noteholders agree that their right, title and interest in, to or under such Series-Specific Collateral shall be subordinate in all respects to the claims or rights of the Noteholders with respect to such other Series of Notes, and in such case, this Series 2021-A Supplement shall constitute a subordination agreement for purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

An assignment by a Class A Committed Note Purchaser that is part of a Class A Investor Group that includes a Class A Conduit Investor to a Class A Investor Group that does not include a Class A Conduit Investor may be made pursuant to this Section 9.3(a)(i) (Class A Assignments); provided that, immediately prior to such assignment each Class A Conduit Investor that is part of the assigning Class A Investor Group shall be deemed to have assigned all of its rights and obligations in the Class A Notes (and its rights and obligations hereunder and under each other Series 2021-A Related Document) in respect of such assigned interest to its related Class A Committed Note Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.3(a)(vii) (Class A Assignments). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any assignment by a Class A Committed Note Purchaser to a different Class A Investor Group that includes a Class A Conduit Investor shall be made pursuant to Section 9.3(a)(iii) (Class A Assignments), and not this Section 9.3(a)(i) (Class A Assignments).
(ii) Without limiting Section 9.3(a)(i) (Class A Assignments), each Class A Conduit Investor may assign all or a portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor and its rights and obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement and each other Series 2021-A Related Document to which it is a party (or otherwise to which it has rights) to a Class A Conduit Assignee with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor without the prior written consent of HVF III. Upon such assignment by a Class A Conduit Investor to a Class A Conduit Assignee:
(A) such Class A Conduit Assignee shall be the owner of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount or such portion thereof with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor,
(B) the related administrative or managing agent for such Class A Conduit Assignee will act as the Class A Funding Agent for such Class A Conduit Assignee hereunder, with all corresponding rights and powers, express or implied, granted to the Class A Funding Agent hereunder or under each other Series 2021-A Related Document,
(C) such Class A Conduit Assignee and its liquidity support provider(s) and credit support provider(s) and other related parties, in each case relating to the Class A Commercial Paper and/or the Class A Notes, shall have the benefit of all the rights and protections provided to such Class A Conduit Investor herein and in each other Series 2021-A Related Document (including any limitation on recourse against such Class A Conduit Assignee as provided in this paragraph),
97
(D) such Class A Conduit Assignee shall assume all of such Class A Conduit Investor’s obligations, if any, hereunder and under each other Series 2021-A Related Document with respect to such portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount and such Class A Conduit Investor shall be released from such obligations,

(F) the definition of the term “Class A CP Rate” with respect to the portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor, as applicable funded with commercial paper issued by such Class A Conduit Assignee from time to time shall be determined in the manner set forth in the definition of “Class A CP Rate” applicable to such Class A Conduit Assignee on the basis of the interest rate or discount applicable to commercial paper issued by such Class A Conduit Assignee (rather than any other Class A Conduit Investor),
(G) the defined terms and other terms and provisions of this Series 2021-A Supplement and each other Series 2021-A Related Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, and
(H) if reasonably requested by the Class A Funding Agent with respect to such Class A Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and deliver such further agreements and documents and take such other actions as the Class A Funding Agent may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the foregoing.
No assignment by any Class A Conduit Investor to a Class A Conduit Assignee of all or any portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor shall in any way diminish the obligation of the Class A Committed Note Purchasers in the same Class A Investor Group as such Class A Conduit Investor under Section 2.2 (Advances) to fund any Class A Advance not funded by such Class A Conduit Investor or such Class A Conduit Assignee.
(iii) Any Class A Conduit Investor and the Class A Committed Note Purchaser with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor (or, with respect to any Class A Investor Group without a Class A Conduit Investor, the related Class A Committed Note Purchaser) at any time may sell all or any part of their respective (or, with respect to a Class A Investor Group without a Class A Conduit Investor, its) rights and obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement and the Class A Notes, with the prior written consent of HVF III, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to a Class A Investor Group with respect to which each acquiring Class A Conduit Investor is a multi-seller commercial paper conduit, whose commercial paper has ratings of at least “A-2” from S&P and “Prime-2” from Moody’s and that includes one or more financial institutions providing support to such multi-seller commercial paper conduit (a “Class A Acquiring Investor Group”) pursuant to a transfer supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 (the “Class A Investor Group Supplement”), executed by such Class A Acquiring Investor Group, the Class A Funding Agent with respect to such Class A Acquiring Investor Group (including each Class A Conduit Investor (if any) and the Class A Committed Note Purchasers with respect to such Class A Investor Group), such assigning Class A Conduit Investor and the Class A Committed Note Purchasers with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor, the Class A Funding Agent with respect to such assigning Class A Conduit Investor and Class A Committed Note Purchasers and HVF III and delivered to the Program Agent; provided that, the consent of HVF III to any such assignment shall not be required after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2021-A Notes; provided further that HVF III may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion (and such withholding shall be deemed reasonable) to an assignment to a potential Class A Acquiring Investor Group that (a) has ratings of at least “A-2” from S&P and “Prime-2” by Moody’s, but does not have ratings of at least “A-1” from S&P or “Prime-1” by Moody’s if such assignment will result in a material increase in HVF III’s costs of financing with respect to the applicable Class A Notes or (b) is a Disqualified Party.
98
(iv) Any Class A Committed Note Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more financial institutions or other entities (“Class A Participants”) participations in its Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of the Class A Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to it and the other Class A Committed Note Purchasers included in the related Class A Investor Group, its Class A Note and its rights hereunder (or, in each case, a portion thereof) pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to such Class A Committed Note Purchaser and the Class A Participant; provided, however, that (i) in the event of any such sale by a Class A Committed Note Purchaser to a Class A Participant, (A) such Class A Committed Note Purchaser’s obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and (C) HVF III and the Program Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Class A Committed Note Purchaser in connection with its rights and obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement, (ii) no Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall sell any participating interest under which the Class A Participant shall have any right to approve, veto, consent, waive or otherwise influence any approval, consent or waiver of such Class A Committed Note Purchaser with respect to any amendment, consent or waiver with respect to this Series 2021-A Supplement or any other Series 2021-A Related Document, except to the extent that the approval of such amendment, consent or waiver otherwise would require the unanimous consent of all Class A Committed Note Purchasers hereunder, and (iii) no Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall sell any participating interest to any Disqualified Party. A Class A Participant shall have the right to receive reimbursement for amounts due pursuant to each Specified Cost Section but only to the extent that the related selling Class A Committed Note Purchaser would have had such right absent the sale of the related participation and, with respect to amounts due pursuant to Section 3.8 (Taxes), only to the extent such Class A Participant shall have complied with the provisions of Section 3.8 (Taxes) as if such Class A Participant were a Class A Committed Note Purchaser. Each such Class A Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to the provisions set forth in Section 3.10 (Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment) as if such Class A Participant were a Class A Committed Note Purchaser.
(v) HVF III authorizes each Class A Committed Note Purchaser to disclose to any Class A Participant or Class A Acquiring Committed Note Purchaser (each, a “Class A Transferee”) and any prospective Class A Transferee any and all financial information in such Class A Committed Note Purchaser’s possession concerning HVF III, the Series 2021-A Collateral, the Administrator and the Series 2021-A Related Documents that has been delivered to such Class A Committed Note Purchaser by HVF III in connection with such Class A Committed Note Purchaser’s credit evaluation of HVF III, the Series 2021-A Collateral and the Administrator.

If such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser’s ratable portion of such Class A Ordinary Advance exceeds its Class A Required Non-Delayed Amount (such excess amount, the “Class A Permitted Delayed Amount”), then the Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser shall also include in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice the portion of such Class A Ordinary Advance (such amount as specified in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice, not to exceed such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser’s Class A Permitted Delayed Amount, the “Class A Delayed Amount”) that the Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser has elected to fund on a Business Day that is on or prior to the thirty-fifth (35th) day following the proposed date of such Class A Ordinary Advance (such date as specified in the Class A Delayed Funding Notice, the “Class A Delayed Funding Date”) rather than on the date for such Class A Ordinary Advance specified in the related Class A Advance Request. |

Proceeds from any Class A Reserve Advance shall be deposited into the Issuer Reserve Account and may only be drawn in accordance with the provisions of Sub-Clause 5.4(a) below. |

Such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser shall (i) (if applicable) pay the sum of the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, to the Issuer no later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date by wire transfer in Euros in same day funds to the Issuer Principal Collection Account, and (ii) pay the Class A Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, on such related Class A Delayed Funding Date to each applicable Class A Funding Agent in immediately available funds for the ratable benefit of the related Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchasers that funded the Class A Delayed Amount on the date of the Class A Advance related to such Class A Delayed Amount in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(a)(v)(C) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures), based on the relative amount of such Class A Delayed Amount funded by such Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchaser on the date of such Class A Advance pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(a)(v)(C) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures). |
| (vii) | Class A Funding Defaults. If, by 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the date of any Class A Advance, one or more Class A Committed Note Purchasers in a Class A Investor Group (each, a “Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser,” and each Class A Committed Note Purchaser in the related Class A Investor Group that is not a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser, a “Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser”) fails to make its portion of such Class A Advance, available to the Issuer pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(a)(vi) (Funding Class A Advances) (the aggregate amount unavailable to the Issuer as a result of any such failure being herein called an “Class A Advance Deficit”), then the Class A Funding Agent for such Class A Investor Group, by no later than 2:30 p.m. (London time) on the applicable date of such Class A Advance, shall instruct each Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser in the same Class A Investor Group as the Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser to pay, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (London time), in immediately available funds, to the Issuer Principal Collection Account, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (based upon the relative Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchasers) of the Class A Advance Deficit and (ii) the amount by which such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser’s pro rata portion (by Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage) of the Class A Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount for such Class A Investor Group exceeds the portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount, respectively for such Class A Investor Group funded by such Class A Non-Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser (determined after giving effect to all Advances already made by such Class A Investor Group on such date).

For the avoidance of doubt, no Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser that has provided a Class A Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class A Advance shall be considered to be in default of its obligation to fund its Class A Delayed Amount or be treated as a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser hereunder unless and until it has failed to fund the Class A Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount or the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(a)(vi)(B) (Funding Class A Advances). |
15
| (b) | Class B Advances |
| (i) | Class B Advance Requests. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including satisfaction of the Class B Funding Conditions, the aggregate principal amount of the Class B Notes may be increased from time to time. On any Business Day during the Revolving Period, the Issuer, subject to this Sub-Clause 2.2(b) (Class B Advances), may increase the Class B Principal Amount (such increase, including any increase resulting from a Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase Amount, is referred to as a “Class B Advance”), by increasing the principal amounts of the Class B Notes allocated ratably by their respective Class B Commitment Percentages in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(iv) (Class B Advance Allocations), provided that such Class B Advance shall not cause the total amount of Class B Advances in any calendar month to exceed five (5). |
| (A) | Whenever the Issuer wishes a Class B Conduit Investor, or if there is no Class B Conduit Investor with respect to any Class B Investor Group, the Class B Committed Note Purchaser with respect to such Class B Investor Group, to make a Class B Advance, the Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent, the related Class B Funding Agent and the Issuer Security Trustee by providing written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 (Class B Form of Advance Notice) delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Issuer Security Trustee and such Class B Funding Agent (with a copy of such notice delivered to the Class B Committed Note Purchasers) no later than 11:30 a.m. (London time) on the third Business Day prior to the proposed Class B Advance (which notice may be combined with the notice delivered pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.1(c) (Additional Investor Groups) in the case of a Class B Advance in connection with a Class B Additional Investor Group Initial Principal Amount, or pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.1(d) (Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase), in the case of a Class B Advance in connection with a Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase Amount). Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case refer to this Agreement and specify the aggregate amount of the requested Class B Advance to be made on such date; provided, however, if the Issuer receives a Class B Delayed Funding Notice in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures) by 6:00 p.m. (London time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Class B Advance, the Issuer shall have the right to revoke the Class B Advance Request by providing the Administrative Agent and each Class B Funding Agent (with a copy to the Issuer Security Trustee and each Class B Committed Note Purchaser) written notice, by telecopy or electronic mail, of such revocation no later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class B Advance. |
16
| (B) | Each Class B Funding Agent shall promptly advise its related Class B Conduit Investor, or if there is no Class B Conduit Investor with respect to any Class B Investor Group, its related Class B Committed Note Purchaser, of any notice given pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(i) (Class B Advance Requests) and, if there is a Class B Conduit Investor with respect to any Class B Investor Group, shall promptly thereafter (but in no event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day preceding the date of such proposed Class B Advance), notify the Issuer and the related Class B Committed Note Purchaser(s), whether such Class B Conduit Investor has determined to make such Class B Advance. |

| (B) | if any Class B Conduit Investor determines that it will not make a Class B Advance (whether as a Class B Non-Delayed Amount or a Class B Delayed Amount) or any portion of a Class B Advance (whether as a Class B Non-Delayed Amount or a Class B Delayed Amount), then such Class B Conduit Investor shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Class B Funding Agent with respect to such Class B Conduit Investor, and each Class B Committed Note Purchaser with respect to such Class B Conduit Investor, subject to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures) shall fund its pro rata portion (by Class B Committed Note Purchaser Percentage) of the Class B Commitment Percentage with respect to such Class B Investor Group of such Class B Advance (whether as a Class B Non-Delayed Amount or a Class B Delayed Amount) not funded by such Class B Conduit Investor; and |
| (C) | if there is no Class B Conduit Investor with respect any Class B Investor Group, then the Class B Committed Note Purchaser(s) with respect to such Class B Investor Group, subject to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(v) (Class B Delayed Funding Procedures), shall fund Class B Advances (whether as a Class B Non-Delayed Amount or a Class B Delayed Amount) from time to time. |
| (iii) | Class B Conduit Investor Funding. Each Class B Conduit Investor hereby agrees with respect to itself that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to fund Class B Advances made by its Class B Investor Group through the issuance of Class B Commercial Paper; provided that, (i) no Class B Conduit Investor will have any obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to fund Class B Advances made by its Class B Investor Group through the issuance of Class B Commercial Paper at any time that the funding of such Class B Advance through the issuance of Class B Commercial Paper would be prohibited by the program documents governing such Class B Conduit Investor’s commercial paper program, (ii) nothing herein is (or shall be construed) as a commitment by any Class B Conduit Investor to fund any Class B Advance through the issuance of Class B Commercial Paper; provided further that, the Class B Conduit Investors shall not, and shall not be obligated to, fund or pay any amount pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) the respective Class B Conduit Investor has received funds that may be used to make such funding or other payment and which funds are not required to repay any of the commercial paper notes (“Class B CP Notes”) issued by such Class B Conduit Investor when due and (ii) after giving effect to such funding or payment, either (x) such Class B Conduit Investor could issue Class B CP Notes to refinance all of its outstanding Class B CP Notes (assuming such outstanding Class B CP Notes matured at such time) in accordance with the program documents governing its commercial paper program or (y) all of the Class B CP Notes are paid in full. Any amount that a Class B Conduit Investor does not pay pursuant to the operation of the second proviso of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against or obligation of such Class B Conduit Investor for any such insufficiency. |
17
| (iv) | Class B Advance Allocations. The Issuer shall allocate the proposed Class B Advance among the Class B Investor Groups ratably by their respective Class B Commitment Percentages; provided that, in the event that one or more Class B Additional Investor Groups becomes party to this Agreement in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.1(c) (Additional Investor Groups) or one or more Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increases are effected in accordance with Sub-Clause 2.1(d) (Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase), any Class B Additional Investor Group Initial Principal Amount in connection with the addition of each such Class B Additional Investor Group, any Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase Amount in connection with each such Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase and each Class B Advance subsequent to either of the foregoing shall be allocated solely to such Class B Additional Investor Groups and/or such Class B Investor Groups, as applicable, until (and only until) the Class B Principal Amount is allocated ratably among all Class B Investor Groups (based upon each such Class B Commitment Percentage after giving effect to each such Class B Additional Investor Group becoming party hereto and/or each such Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase, as applicable); provided further that on or prior to the Payment Date immediately following the date on which any such Class B Additional Investor Group becomes party hereto or a Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase occurs, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to request Class B Advances and/or effect Class B Voluntary Decreases to the extent necessary to cause (after giving effect to such Class B Advances and Class B Voluntary Decreases) the Class B Principal Amount to be allocated ratably among all Class B Investor Groups (based upon each such Class B Investor Group’s Class B Commitment Percentage after giving effect to such Class B Additional Investor Group becoming party hereto or such Class B Investor Group Maximum Principal Increase, as applicable). |
| (v) | Class B Delayed Funding Procedures. |
| (A) | A Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser, upon receipt of any notice of a Class B Advance pursuant to Sub-Clause 2.2(b)(i), promptly (but in no event later than 6:00 p.m. (London time) on the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Class B Advance) may notify the Issuer in writing (a “Class B Delayed Funding Notice”) of its election to designate such Class B Advance as a delayed Class B Advance (such Class B Advance, a “Class B Designated Delayed Advance”). If such Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser’s ratable portion of such Class B Advance exceeds its Class B Required Non-Delayed Amount (such excess amount, the “Class B Permitted Delayed Amount”), then the Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser shall also include in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice the portion of such Class B Advance (such amount as specified in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice, not to exceed such Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser’s Class B Permitted Delayed Amount, the “Class B Delayed Amount”) that the Class B Delayed Funding Purchaser has elected to fund on a Business Day that is on or prior to the thirty-fifth (35th) day following the proposed date of such Class B Advance (such date as specified in the Class B Delayed Funding Notice, the “Class B Delayed Funding Date”) rather than on the date for such Class B Advance specified in the related Class B Advance Request. |
18
| (B) | If (A) one or more Class B Delayed Funding Purchasers provide a Class B Delayed Funding Notice to the Issuer specifying a Class B Delayed Amount in respect of any Class B Advance and (B) the Issuer shall not have revoked the notice of the Class B Advance by 10:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days preceding the proposed date of such Class B Advance, then the Issuer, by no later than 11:30 a.m. (London time) two Business Days preceding the date of such proposed Class B Advance, may (but shall have no obligation to) direct each Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser to fund an additional portion of such Class B Advance on the proposed date of such Class B Advance equal to such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s proportionate share (based upon the relative Class B Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of such Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchasers) of the aggregate Class B Delayed Amount with respect to the proposed Advance; provided that, (i) no Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser shall be required to fund any portion of its proportionate share of such aggregate Class B Delayed Amount that would cause its Class B Investor Group Principal Amount to exceed its Class B Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount and (ii) any Class B Conduit Investor, if any, in the Class B Available Delayed Amount Committed Note Purchaser’s Investor Group may, in its sole discretion, agree to fund such proportionate share of such aggregate Class B Delayed Amount. |

If, after the occurrence of any Liquidation Event the FleetCo Security Trustee or any Lessee fails to take action to accomplish any instructions given to it by the Issuer Security Trustee within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof, then the Issuer Security Trustee may or, at the direction of the Required Noteholders only, shall, subject to being indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to its satisfaction, take such action or such other appropriate action on behalf of the FleetCo Security Trustee or such Lessee. In the event that the Issuer Security Trustee determines to take action pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer Security Trustee may institute legal proceedings for the appointment of a receiver or receivers to take possession of some or all of the Eligible Vehicles pending the sale thereof, and the Issuer Security Trustee may institute legal proceedings for the appointment of a receiver or receivers pursuant to the powers of sale granted by the FleetCo Security Documents. |

| (i) | [Reserved] |

All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
| 7.5 | Control by Required Noteholders |
Subject to the provisions of Sub-Clauses 7.14 and 7.15 of this Agreement, the Required Noteholders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Issuer Security Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Issuer Security Trustee. Subject to the provisions of the Issuer Security Trust Deed, the Issuer Security Trustee may, however, refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Agreement or the Issuer Note Framework Agreement or that may involve the Issuer Security Trustee in personal liability.
| 7.6 | Right of Holders to Bring Suit |
Subject to the provisions of Clause 22 (No Recourse and Non-Petition) of the Issuer Security Trust Deed, the right of any Noteholder to bring suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or interest on any Note, in each case, on or after the respective due dates therefor expressed in such Note, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Noteholder.
| 7.7 | Collection Suit by the Issuer Security Trustee |
If any Amortization Event arising from the failure to make a payment in respect of the Issuer Notes occurs and is continuing, the Issuer Security Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Issuer Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Issuer Security Trustee, its agents and counsel.
69
| 7.8 | The Issuer Security Trustee May File Proofs of Claim |
The Issuer Security Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Issuer Security Trustee (including any claim for the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Issuer Security Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Noteholders relating to the Issuer Collateral or the Issuer Secured Obligations allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor under the Issuer Notes), its creditors or its property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder to make such payments to the Issuer Security Trustee and, in the event that the Issuer Security Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay the Issuer Security Trustee any amount due to it for the properly incurred compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Issuer Security Trustee, its agents and counsel. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Issuer Security Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any such Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Issuer Notes of any Noteholder or the rights of any such Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Issuer Security Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any such Noteholder in any such proceeding.

| 7.10 | Rights and Remedies Cumulative |
No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer Security Trustee or to the holders of Issuer Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right or remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other valid right or remedy.
| 7.11 | Delay or Omission Not Waiver |
No delay or omission of the Issuer Security Trustee or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Amortization Event shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Amortization Event or acquiescence thereto (other than any such right or remedy that by its terms requires such Amortization Event to be continuing at the time of exercising such right or remedy). Every right and remedy given by this Clause 7 (Amortization Events and Remedies) or by law to the Issuer Security Trustee or to each Noteholder may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Issuer Security Trustee or such Noteholder, as the case may be.

Each party hereto acknowledges that, in respect of any notice, communications, requests, instructions or demands delivered by email, the internet cannot guarantee the integrity and safety of the transferred data nor the time period in which such data is processed. The Registrar shall not therefore be liable for any operational incident and its consequences arising from the use of internet.
| 3.19 | Service of Process |
Each of the Issuer, the Subordinated Noteholder, Dutch B FleetCo, Belgian OpCo, Dutch FleetCo, Dutch OpCo, French FleetCo, French OpCo, the FCT, German FleetCo, German OpCo, Spanish FleetCo, Spanish OpCo, Italian FleetCo and Italian OpCo agrees that the process by which any proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Related Document may be served on it is by being delivered to Hertz Europe Limited of Hertz House, 11 Vine Street, Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 1QE and if the appointment of a process agent by a party ceases to be effective, each such party shall immediately appoint another person in England as its process agent in respect of this Agreement and notify the other parties of the appointment and, if such party to a Related Document fails to appoint such further person, the Issuer Security Trustee may appoint another agent for this purpose. Each of the Issuer, the Subordinated Noteholder, Dutch B FleetCo, Belgian OpCo, Dutch FleetCo, Dutch OpCo, French FleetCo, French OpCo, the FCT, German FleetCo, German OpCo, Spanish FleetCo, Spanish OpCo, Italian FleetCo and Italian OpCo further agrees that failure by an agent for service of process to notify such party to a Related Document of such process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.
| 4. | AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS |
| 4.1 | Subject to Sub-Clause 4.2 and Sub-Clause 4.3 below, any term of this Agreement may be amended or waived with the consent of only the Issuer, the Issuer Administrator, the Issuer Security Trustee and the FleetCo Security Trustee and any such amendment or waiver will be binding on all of the parties hereto. |
- 269 -
| 4.2 | An amendment or waiver which adversely affects any party hereto (other than the Noteholders, Committed Note Purchasers, Conduit Investors and Funding Agents) may not be effected without the consent of each such adversely affected party. |
| 4.3 | The Issuer may only give its consent in accordance with Sub-Clause 4.1 if it has first received the necessary consents in accordance with Annex 2 paragraph 2 (Amendments) of the Issuer Facility Agreement. |
| 4.4 | Save as explicitly set out in Annex 2 to the Issuer Facility Agreement, all consent, direction and consultation rights set out in the Related Documents (howsoever exercisable) shall be exercisable by, at the direction of and for the benefit of the Class A Noteholders only for so long as Class A Notes are outstanding. Any reference to "Noteholders" or a consent threshold of Noteholders or Committed Note Purchasers, including unanimity, set out in any Related Document shall be construed accordingly, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing the consent of the Class B Noteholders and the Class C Noteholders shall, through the relevant chain of instructions, be required to amend or waive the duty of the relevant Liquidation Coordinator to maximize disposal proceeds in the manner contemplated by each relevant Liquidation Co-ordination Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the duty of the relevant Liquidation Coordinator to maximise disposal proceeds for the Class A Noteholders, Class B Noteholders and Class C Noteholders as a whole should be understood as having regard to the prevailing market conditions and should not be interpreted as imposing an obligation on any Liquidation Co-ordinator to postpone any disposal in order to achieve a higher price or value. |
| 4.5 | In the context of the Italian Liquidation Co-ordination Agreement and the rights of the Italian Noteholder thereunder, it is acknowledged and agreed that the Italian Noteholder shall, subject to Clause 4.4 above, exercise its rights under the provisions of the Italian Liquidation Co-ordination Agreement on the instructions of, and for the benefit of, the Class A Noteholders only (in all cases through the relevant chain of instructions under the Related Documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, where any right is conferred on the Class B Noteholders and/or the Class C Noteholders in any of the other Liquidation Co-ordination Agreements and there is an equivalent right that the Italian Noteholder benefits from in the Italian Liquidation Co-ordination Agreement, then that right shall also (in addition to the Class A Noteholders) be exercisable on the instructions of, and for the benefit of, the Class B Noteholders and/or, as the case may be, the Class C Noteholders (in all cases through the relevant chain of instructions under the Related Documents) on an equivalent basis, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the right set out in Clause 8.1 of the Belgian Liquidation Coordination Agreement with regard to the rights of the Class C Noteholders in the event that the Required Noteholders fail to serve an Additional Pre-Liquidation Services Commencement Notice in circumstances where they become entitled to do so. |
| 5. | ENFORCEMENT UNDER FRENCH LAW RELATED DOCUMENTS |
Unless otherwise required in the relevant French Law Related Document, in accordance with article 1344 of the French Code civil, the parties to any French Law Related Document agree that no formal notice (mise en demeure) shall be served by a party to another party before exercising any of its rights or legal remedies under this French Law Related Document. In particular, with respect to any payment obligation, the debtor of such payment obligation shall be due to pay when such payment obligation is due and payable and no formal notice to pay shall be served beforehand in this respect.
| 6. | DUTCH POWER OF ATTORNEY |
If an entity incorporated in the Netherlands is represented by an attorney or attorneys in connection with the signing, execution or delivery of this Agreement or any document, agreement or deed referred to herein or made pursuant hereto, the relevant power of attorney is expressed to be governed by the laws of the Netherlands and it is hereby expressly acknowledged and accepted by the other parties that such laws shall govern the existence and extent of such attorney’s or attorneys’ authority and the effects of the exercise thereof.
