Introductory Note
  
 Cautionary Note for Forward-Looking Information
    
    
    the effect of an economic downturn or other factors resulting in a decline in
non-residential construction, non-construction maintenance, capital improvements and
capital investment;
    
    intense rental rate price pressure from competitors, some of whom are heavily
indebted and may significantly reduce their prices to generate cash to meet debt
covenants; from contractor customers some of whom are bidding work at cost or below to
secure work for their remaining best employees; from industrial customers who generally
are experiencing profitability shortfalls in the current economic climate and in return
are asking all of their most significant suppliers for price reductions and cost
reduction ideas;
    
    the rental industrys ability to continue to sell used equipment through both the
retail and auction markets at prices sufficient to enable us to maintain orderly
liquidation values that support our borrowing base to meet our minimum availability and
to avoid testing springing covenants of leverage and fixed charge coverage contained in
our senior ABL revolving facility credit agreement;
    
    our ability to comply with our debt covenants;
    
    risks related to the credit markets willingness to continue to lend to borrowers
rated B- and C;
    
    our ability to generate cash and/or incur additional indebtedness to finance
equipment purchases;

legislation, the environment and customer privacy, among others;
    
    fluctuations in fuel or supply costs;
    
    heavy reliance on centralized information technology systems; and

Risks Relating to Our Business
 Our business has been and may continue to be hurt by an economic downturn, a decline in
non-residential construction or industrial or non-construction, activities or a decline in the
amount of equipment that is rented.
  
    
    weakness or a downturn in the overall economy, including the onset of, or prolonged
exposure to, a recession;
    
    reduced access to capital markets for our customers funding of projects due to a
weakness or downturn in the overall economy or otherwise;
    
    an increase in the cost of construction materials;
    
    an increase in interest rates;
    
    adverse weather conditions or natural disasters, including an active hurricane season in
the Gulf of Mexico region, where we have a large concentration of customers; or
    
    terrorism or hostilities involving the United States or Canada.
  We face intense competition that may lead to our inability to increase or maintain our prices,
which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.

Our revenues and operating results may fluctuate and unexpected or sustained periods of decline
have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
  
    
    downturn in the North American economy, including the reduced access to capital markets
for our customers funding of projects, any sustained periods of inflation or deflation, and

    changes in demand for our equipment or the prices we charge due to changes in economic
conditions, competition or other factors;

    rental rate changes in response to competitive factors;
    
    our inability to maintain our price levels during long-term periods of economic decline;
    
    bankruptcy or insolvency of our competitors leading to a larger than expected amount of
used equipment in the open market;
    
    bankruptcy or insolvency of our customers, thereby reducing demand for used rental
equipment;
    
    reduction in the demand for used equipment may result in lower sales prices and volume
for used equipment sales;
    
    aging of our fleet, ultimately resulting in lower sales prices and volume for used
equipment sales;
    
    seasonal rental patterns, with rental activity tending to be lowest in the winter;
    
    downturn in oil and petrochemical-related sectors from which we derive a large share of


    
    possible write-offs or exceptional charges due to changes in applicable accounting
standards, goodwill impairment, impairment of obsolete or damaged equipment or other assets,
or the refinancing of our existing debt.
  The non-residential construction market is currently experiencing a downturn which, if sustained,
could harm our business, liquidity and results of operations.
  Our reliance on available borrowings under the Senior ABL Revolving Facility and cash from
operating activities is necessary to operate our business and subjects us to a number of risks,
many of which are beyond our control.
   The effects of the recent global economic crisis have had and may continue to have a negative
impact on our revenue, operating results, or financial condition.
  34

##### Table of Contents



Our expenses could increase and our relationships with our customers could be hurt if there is an
adverse change in our relationships with our equipment suppliers or if our suppliers are unable to
provide us with products we rely on to generate revenues.
  If we are unable to collect on contracts with customers, our operating results would be adversely
affected.
  If our operating costs increase as our rental fleet ages and we are unable to pass along such
costs, our earnings will decrease.
  Our operational and cost reduction measures may not generate the improvements and efficiencies we
expect.
  The cost of new equipment we use in our rental fleet could increase and therefore we may spend more
for replacement equipment, and in some cases we may not be able to procure equipment on a timely
basis due to supplier constraints.

business, or have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
  
    
    potential disruption of our ongoing business and distraction of management;
    
    difficulty integrating the acquired business; and

##### Table of Contents



Certain existing stockholders of RSC Holdings have significant control over our company and large
ownership positions that could be sold, transferred or distributed.
  We face risks related to changes in our ownership.
  Risks Related to our Indebtedness
 We have substantial debt, which could adversely affect our financial condition, our ability to
obtain financing in the future and our ability to react to changes in our business and make
payments on our indebtedness.
   
    
    make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations to the holders of our Notes and
to the lenders under our Senior Credit Facilities, resulting in possible defaults on and
acceleration of such debt;
    
    require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make
payments on our debt, which would reduce the availability of our cash flow from operations
to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate
purposes;
    
    increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including
interest rate fluctuations, because a portion of our borrowings, including under the Senior
Credit Facilities, bears interest at variable rates;
    
    place us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors with proportionately less debt
or comparable debt at more favorable interest rates;
    
    limit our ability to refinance our existing indebtedness on favorable terms or at all or
borrow additional funds in the future for, among other things, working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions or debt service requirements;
    
    limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changing conditions in our
business and industry; and
 40




---



##### Table of Contents




    
    limit our ability to react to competitive pressures, or make it difficult for us to carry
out capital spending that is necessary or important to our growth strategy and our efforts
to improve operating margins.
  Despite our current indebtedness levels, we and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial
additional debt, which could further exacerbate the risks associated with our current substantial
debt.
  Restrictive covenants in certain of the agreements and instruments governing our indebtedness may
adversely affect our financial and operational flexibility.
  
    
    incur additional indebtedness or provide guarantees;
    
    engage in mergers, acquisitions or dispositions of assets;
    
    enter into sale-leaseback transactions;
    
    make dividends or other restricted payments;
    
    prepay other indebtedness;
    
    engage in certain transactions with affiliates;
    
    make investments;
    
    change the nature of our business;
    
    incur liens;
    
    enter into currency, commodity and other hedging transactions; and
    
    amend specified debt agreements.
  41

##### Table of Contents




    
    incur additional debt;
    
    pay dividends or distributions on their capital stock or repurchase their capital stock;
    
    make certain investments;
    
    create liens on their assets to secure debt;
    
    enter into certain transactions with affiliates;
    
    create limitations on the ability of the restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or
distributions to their respective parents;
    
    merge or consolidate with another company; and
    
    transfer and sell assets.
   We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to make payments on all of our debt, and our ability
to refinance all or a portion of our debt or obtain additional financing depends on many factors
beyond our control. As a result, we may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations
under such indebtedness, which may not be successful.
  42

##### Table of Contents



A significant portion of our outstanding indebtedness is secured by substantially all of our
consolidated assets. As a result of these security interests, such assets would only be available
to satisfy claims of our general creditors or to holders of our equity securities if we were to
become insolvent to the extent the value of such assets exceeded the amount of our indebtedness and
other obligations. In addition, the existence of these security interests may adversely affect our
financial flexibility.
    An increase in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing our indebtedness and could
reduce our profitability.
  Risks Related to Market and Economic Factors
 Our operating and financial performance in any given period might not meet the guidance we have
provided to the public.

The certificate of incorporation, by-laws of RSC Holdings and Delaware law may discourage takeovers
and business combinations that our stockholders might consider in their best interests.
  
    
    establishment of a classified Board of Directors, with staggered terms;
    
    granting to the Board of Directors sole power to set the number of directors and to

an increase in the number of directors or otherwise;
    
    limitations on the ability of stockholders to remove directors;
    
    the ability of the Board of Directors to designate and issue one or more series of
preferred stock without stockholder approval, the terms of which may be determined at
the sole discretion of the Board of Directors;
    
    prohibition on stockholders from calling special meetings of stockholders;
    
    establishment of advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and
nominations for election to the Board of Directors at stockholder meetings; and
