of $293 million (which was utilized during 2006) and (b) a synthetic letter of credit facility in an
aggregate principal amount of $250 million. On May 15, 2006, Hertz borrowed approximately
$84.9 million under the delayed draw term loan of the Senior Term Facility, or the ‘‘Delayed Draw
Term Loan,’’ and used the proceeds thereof to repay its 6.5% Senior Notes due 2006. Hertz

proceeds thereof to repay borrowings outstanding under the asset based revolving loan facility

subsidiaries under a new senior asset-based revolving loan facility, or the ‘‘Senior ABL Facility,’’

Program’’; under which an additional $600 million of previously issued pre-Acquisition asset-
backed securities having maturities from 2007 to 2009, or the ‘‘pre-Acquisition ABS Notes,’’
remain outstanding, and in connection with which approximately $1,500 million of variable
funding notes in two series were also issued, but not funded, on the Closing Date;
aggregate borrowings of the foreign currency equivalent of approximately $1,781 million by
certain of our foreign subsidiaries under asset-based revolving loan facilities with aggregate
commitments equivalent to approximately $2,930 million (calculated in each case at

and related assets of certain of our foreign subsidiaries, (substantially all of which are organized
outside of the United States) or one or more special purpose entities, as the case may be, and,
rental equipment and related assets of certain of our subsidiaries organized outside North
America or one or more special purpose entities, as the case may be, which facilities (together
with certain capital lease obligations) are referred to collectively as the ‘‘International Fleet Debt;’’
and
our cash on hand in an aggregate amount of approximately $6.1 million.
In connection with the Acquisition and related transactions, we also refinanced our existing
indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $8,346 million, through the following transactions,
which was repaid as follows:
