PERFORMANCE STOCK AGREEMENT

 

THIS PERFORMANCE STOCK AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Participant (defined hereafter) pursuant to the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), in combination with a      Long Term Incentive Award Summary (or applicable portion thereof) (the “Award Summary”).  The Award Summary, which identifies the person to whom the performance stock is granted (the “Participant”) and specifies the date of grant of this Award (the “Grant Date”) and other details of this Award, and the electronic acceptance of this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference.

 

1.  Grant and Acceptance of Performance Stock.  The Company hereby evidences and confirms its grant to the Participant, effective as of the Grant Date, of the number of shares of restricted Common Stock set forth on the Award Summary (the “Grant Number”) and which shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, including the adjustments as provided in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2(c)(ii)) (the “Performance Stock”).  The Participant must accept this Award within ninety (90) days after notification that the Award is available for acceptance and in accordance with the instructions provided by the Company.  The Award may be rescinded upon the action of the Company, in its sole discretion, if the Award is not accepted within ninety (90) days after notification is sent to the Participant indicating availability for acceptance.

 

This Agreement is subordinate to, and the terms and conditions of the Performance Stock granted hereunder are subject to, the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated by reference herein. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, except as expressly provided herein, the terms of the Plan shall govern.  If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Award Summary, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.  Any capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

 

2.  Vesting of Performance Stock.

 

(a)  Generally.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, the Restriction Period applicable to the Performance Stock shall lapse, if at all, as to the number of shares of Performance Stock subject to this Agreement (as specified on the Award Summary and as may have been modified by this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2(c)(ii))) multiplied by the Final Target Adjustment Percentage (as defined in Exhibit A), as of the later of the Certification Date (as

 

1











 

defined below) and the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”), subject to (X) the continued employment of the Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof through the third anniversary of the Grant Date (except as otherwise provided under Section (2)(c)(ii)), (Y) the achievement of the performance criteria established by the Committee pursuant to the Plan for the Performance Stock for the applicable Performance Periods (as defined in Exhibit A) and set forth at the end of this Agreement (the “Performance Criteria”) and (Z) the Committee’s certification of the achievement of the Performance Criteria and Final Target Adjustment Percentage in accordance with the paragraph below.

 

To the extent the Restriction Period of any Performance Stock subject to this Agreement does not lapse as of the Vesting Date as provided above, such Performance Stock shall immediately be forfeited and canceled.

 

As soon as administratively feasible in the calendar year after the end of the Three Year Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A), the Committee shall certify, in writing, whether or not, and to what extent, the Performance Criteria have been achieved and the Final Target Adjustment Percentage.  The date on which the Committee makes such certification is referred to herein as the “Certification Date”.

 

(b)  Forfeiture Due to Performance Criteria Non-Achievement.  If the Committee certifies on the Certification Date that the Performance Criteria have not been achieved and/or the Final Target Adjustment Percentage is 0%, all Performance Stock subject to this Agreement shall immediately be forfeited and canceled.

 

(c)  Termination of Employment.

 

(i)  Death or Disability.  If the Participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, the Restriction Period shall lapse immediately upon such termination with respect to a portion of the Performance Stock subject to this Agreement equal to the Grant Number multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full completed months elapsed since the Grant Date, and the denominator of which is 36.  Any Performance Stock still subject to restriction after giving effect to the preceding sentence shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.

 

(ii)  Retirement.  If the Participant’s employment is terminated due to Retirement prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, then a portion of the Performance Stock subject to this Agreement shall be retained, with such portion being retained equal to the Grant Number multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full completed months elapsed since the Grant Date, and the denominator of which is 36.  Such portion retained shall be the number of

 

2











 

shares of Performance Stock under this Agreement thereafter, and the remaining portion of Performance Stock shall be forfeited and cancelled as of the date of the Participant’s termination.  The retained portion of shares of Performance Stock shall remain subject to the other terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 2(a) and 2(b)); provided, however, such Participant shall be deemed to meet the requirements of clause (X) of Section 2(a).

 

(iii)  Any Other Reason.  If the Participant’s employment terminates (whether by the Participant or by the Company or a Subsidiary) for any reason other than death or Disability prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, and subject to Section 2(c)(ii), any outstanding Performance Stock shall immediately be forfeited and canceled effective as of the date of the Participant’s termination.

 

(d)  Change in Control.

 

(i)  In General.  Subject to Section 2(d)(ii), in the event of a Change in Control, the Restriction Period applicable to any outstanding Performance Stock shall lapse immediately prior to such Change in Control (with any Performance Criteria applicable to Performance Periods that are incomplete as of the Change in Control deemed satisfied at the greater of actual performance at the time of the Change in Control and the target level).

 

(ii)  Alternative Awards.  Notwithstanding Section 2(d)(i), no cancellation, termination, lapse of Restriction Period or settlement or other payment shall occur with respect to the Performance Stock if the Committee (as constituted immediately prior to the Change in Control) reasonably determines prior to the Change in Control that the Performance Stock shall be honored or assumed or new rights substituted therefor by an Alternative Award, in accordance with the terms of Section 9.2 of the Plan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, any such Alternative Award shall vest in full (with any Performance Criteria applicable to Performance Periods that are incomplete as of the Participant’s termination deemed satisfied at the greater of actual performance at the time of the Change in Control and the target level) if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause within two years following a Change in Control.

 

(iii)  Definitions.  For purposes of this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, “Change in Control” means the first occurrence of any of the following events after the Grant Date:

3.  Forfeiture.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, if, during the Covered Period, the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct, then any Performance Stock for which the Restriction Period has not then lapsed shall automatically be forfeited and cancelled effective as of the date on which the Participant first engaged in such Wrongful Conduct.  If the Participant engages in Wrongful Conduct or if the Participant’s employment is terminated for Cause, the Participant shall pay to the Company in cash any Performance-Based Financial Gain the Participant realized from the lapse of the Restriction Period applicable to all or a portion of the Performance Stock with respect to which the Restriction Period lapsed within the Wrongful Conduct Period.  By entering into this Agreement, the Participant hereby consents to and authorizes the Company and the Subsidiaries to deduct from any amounts payable by such entities to the Participant any amounts the Participant owes to the Company under this Section 3 to the extent permitted by law.  This right of set-off is in addition to any other remedies the Company may have against the Participant for the Participant’s breach of this Section 3.  The Participant’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be cumulative of any similar obligations the Participant has under the Plan, this Agreement, any Company policy, standard or code (including, without limitation, the Company’s Standards of Business Conduct), or any other agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Committee determines that the rules and regulations implementing Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act require a longer or different clawback time period than the three-year period contemplated by Sections 4(b) and (c), or terms and conditions other than those reflected in this Section 4, such three-year period shall be deemed extended (but not reduced), and/or such other terms and conditions modified, to the extent necessary to be consistent with such rules and regulations.

 

5.  Participant’s Rights with Respect to the Performance Stock.

 

(a)  Restrictions on Transferability.  No Performance Stock may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the lapse of the Restriction Period.  Thereafter, Performance Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated except in compliance with all applicable securities laws.  Any stock certificates evidencing the Performance Stock shall be held in the custody of the Secretary of the Company until the Restriction Period lapses, and, as a condition of this grant of Performance Stock, the Participant shall deliver a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the shares of Performance Stock covered by this Award.

(b)  Evidence of Shares.  Promptly after the Grant Date, the Company shall recognize the grant of the Performance Stock by (i) a crediting of the Performance Stock to a book-entry account maintained by the Company (or its transfer agent or other designee) for the benefit of the Participant, with appropriate electronic notation of the restrictions on transfer provided herein, or another similar method, or (ii) the issuance of a certificate representing the Performance Stock in the name of the Participant, bearing the appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in the following form:

 

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (INCLUDING FORFEITURE) CONTAINED IN THE HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. 2016 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN AND THE RELATED AWARD AGREEMENT AND NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY IT ARE ASSIGNABLE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH PLAN AND AWARD AGREEMENT, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”

(c)  Rights as Stockholder.  Any cash dividends or distributions credited to the Participant in respect of the Performance Stock shall be deemed to have been invested in additional Performance Stock on the payment date established for the related dividend or distribution in an amount per share of Performance Stock equal to the greatest whole number which may be obtained by dividing (i) the value of such dividend or distribution on the record date by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on such date, and any such additional Performance Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable in respect of the Performance Stock with respect to which such dividends or distributions were payable.  If any dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Common Stock or other securities, such shares and other securities shall be subject to the same Restriction Period and other restrictions as apply to the Performance Stock with respect to which they were paid.  Subject to this Section 5(c), the Participant shall be entitled to exercise full voting rights and other rights as a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying such Award during the period in which such shares remain subject to the Restriction Period.

 

6.  Lapse of Restriction Period.

 

(a)  In General.  Upon the lapse of the Restriction Period, the Company shall release any shares of Performance Stock that become vested (i) by appropriate transfer to an unrestricted book-entry account maintained by the Company (or its transfer agent or other designee) for the benefit of the Participant (or, if the Participant is deceased, to the Participant’s legal representative) or by other appropriate electronic notation of the lapse or expiration of the Restriction Period with respect to such shares, (ii) by delivering to the Participant (or, if the Participant is deceased, to the Participant’s legal representative) a certificate issued in respect of such shares (without any legend contemplated by Section 5(b)), or (iii) by any other means deemed appropriate by the Company.

 

(b)  Postponement of Release.  The Company may postpone the release of the Performance Stock for so long as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable to satisfy the following: (i) the requirements of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed, (ii) the completion or amendment of any registration of such shares or satisfaction of any exemption from registration under any securities law, rule, or regulation; (iii) compliance with any requests for representations; and (iv) receipt of proof satisfactory to the Company that a person seeking such shares on the Participant’s behalf upon the Participant’s Disability (if necessary), or upon the Participant’s estate’s behalf after the death of the Participant, is appropriately authorized.
