Form of Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement

 Exhibit 10.6 

ZIPCAR, INC. 

Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement  

Granted Under 2010 Stock Incentive Plan 

1. Grant of Option. 

This agreement evidences the grant by Zipcar, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on
                    , 20     (the “Grant Date”) to
            , an employee, consultant or director of the Company (the “Participant”), of an option to purchase, in whole or in part, on the terms provided herein and in the
Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a total of                      shares (the “Shares”)
of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) at $            .     per Share, which is the Fair Market Value of a share
of common stock on the Grant Date. Unless earlier terminated, this option shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on              (the “Final Exercise Date”). Acceptance of this
option signifies acceptance of the terms and conditions of this agreement and the Plan, a copy of which has been provided to the Participant. 

It is intended that the option evidenced by this agreement shall not be an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”). Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term “Participant,” as used in this option, shall be deemed to include
any person who acquires the right to exercise this option validly under its terms. 
 2. Vesting Schedule. 

This option will become exercisable (“vest”) as to 25% of the original number of Shares on the first anniversary of the Vesting
Commencement Date and as to an additional 2.0833% of the original number of Shares at the end of each successive month following the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date until the fourth anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date,
provided the Participant is continuously employed by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Vesting Commencement Date” shall mean
                    , 20    . 

Except as may be specifically stated herein, the Participant must be employed on a vesting date for vesting to occur. There shall be no
proportionate or partial vesting in the period prior to each vesting date and all vesting shall occur only on the appropriate vesting date. 

The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that to the extent the option is not exercised in any period to the maximum extent
permissible it shall continue to be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all Shares for which it is vested until the earlier of the Final Exercise Date or the termination of this option under Section 3 hereof or the Plan.

 3. Exercise of Option. 

(a) Form of Exercise. Each election to exercise this option shall be accompanied by a completed Notice of Stock Option Exercise in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, signed by the Participant, and received by the Company at its principal office, accompanied by this 

 

 1 

 
agreement, and payment in full in the manner provided in the Plan. The Participant may purchase less than the number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this option may
be for any fractional share or for fewer than ten whole shares. 
 (b) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required.
Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, this option may not be exercised unless the Participant, at the time he or she exercises this option, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee, officer or director of, or
consultant or advisor to, the Company or any other entity the employees, officers, directors, consultants, or advisors of which are eligible to receive option grants under the Plan (an “Eligible Participant”). 

(c) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then,
except as provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the right to exercise this option shall terminate three months after such cessation (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this option shall be
exercisable only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise this option on the date of such cessation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date, violates the non-competition or
confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company, the right to exercise this option shall terminate immediately upon such violation.

 (d) Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability. If the Participant dies or becomes disabled (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) prior to the Final Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Participant and the Company has not terminated such relationship for “cause” as specified in paragraph (e) below, this option shall be
exercisable, within the period of one year following the date of death or disability of the Participant, by the Participant (or in the case of death by an authorized transferee), provided that this option shall be exercisable only to
the extent that this option was exercisable by the Participant on the date of his or her death or disability, and further provided that this option shall not be exercisable after the Final Exercise Date. 

(e) Termination for Cause. If, prior to the Final Exercise Date, the Participant’s employment or other relationship with the
Company is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined below), the right to exercise this option shall terminate immediately upon the effective date of such termination of employment or other relationship. If the Participant is party to an
employment, consulting or severance agreement with the Company that contains a definition of “cause” for termination of employment or other relationship, “Cause” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in such agreement.
Otherwise, “Cause” shall mean willful misconduct by the Participant or willful failure by the Participant to perform his or her responsibilities to the Company (including, without limitation, breach by the Participant of any provision of
any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Participant and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The Participant shall be considered to
have been discharged for “Cause” if the Company determines, within 30 days after the Participant’s resignation, that discharge for cause was warranted.

 4. Company Right of First Refusal. 

(a) Notice of Proposed Transfer. If the Participant proposes to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose
of, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively, “transfer”) any Shares acquired upon exercise of this option, then the Participant shall first give written notice of the proposed transfer (the “Transfer Notice”) to the
Company. The Transfer Notice shall name the proposed transferee and state the number of such Shares the Participant proposes to transfer (the “Offered Shares”), the price per share and all other material terms and conditions of the
transfer. 
 (b) Company Right to Purchase. For 30 days following its receipt of such Transfer Notice, the Company shall
have the option to purchase all or part of the Offered Shares at the price and upon the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. In the event the Company elects to purchase all or part of the Offered Shares, it shall give written notice of such
election to the Participant within such 30-day period. Within 10 days after his or her receipt of such notice, the Participant shall tender to the Company at its principal offices the certificate or certificates representing the Offered Shares to be
purchased by the Company, duly endorsed in blank by the Participant or with duly endorsed stock powers attached thereto, all in a form suitable for transfer of the Offered Shares to the Company. Promptly following receipt of such certificate or
certificates, the Company shall deliver or mail to the Participant a check in payment of the purchase price for such Offered Shares; provided that if the terms of payment set forth in the Transfer Notice were other than cash against
delivery, the Company may pay for the Offered Shares on the same terms and conditions as were set forth in the Transfer Notice; and provided further that any delay in making such payment shall not invalidate the Company’s exercise
of its option to purchase the Offered Shares. 
 (c) Shares Not Purchased By Company. If the Company does not elect to
acquire all of the Offered Shares, the Participant may, within the 30-day period following the expiration of the option granted to the Company under subsection (b) above, transfer the Offered Shares which the Company has not elected to acquire
to the proposed transferee, provided that such transfer shall not be on terms and conditions more favorable to the transferee than those contained in the Transfer Notice. Notwithstanding any of the above, all Offered Shares transferred
pursuant to this Section 4 shall remain subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 4 and such transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such
transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Section 4. 
 (d) Consequences of Non-Delivery.
After the time at which the Offered Shares are required to be delivered to the Company for transfer to the Company pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Company shall not pay any dividend to the Participant on account of such Offered Shares or
permit the Participant to exercise any of the privileges or rights of a stockholder with respect to such Offered Shares, but shall, insofar as permitted by law, treat the Company as the owner of such Offered Shares. 

(e) Exempt Transactions. The following transactions shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 4: 

(1) any transfer of Shares to or for the benefit of any spouse, child or grandchild of the Participant, or to a trust for their benefit;

  

 3 

 (2) any transfer pursuant to an effective registration statement filed by the Company under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and 
 (3) the sale of all or substantially all of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (including pursuant to a merger or consolidation); 
 provided, however, that
in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (1) above, such Shares shall remain subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 4 and such transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written
instrument confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Section 4. 
 (f)
Assignment of Company Right. The Company may assign its rights to purchase Offered Shares in any particular transaction under this Section 4 to one or more persons or entities. 

(g) Termination. The provisions of this Section 4 shall terminate upon the earlier of the following events: 

(1) the closing of the sale of shares of Common Stock in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement
filed by the Company under the Securities Act; or 
 (2) the sale of all or substantially all of the outstanding shares of
capital stock, assets or business of the Company, by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise (other than a merger or consolidation in which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were beneficial owners of the
Company’s voting securities immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 75% (determined on an as-converted basis) of the outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors of the resulting, surviving or acquiring corporation in such transaction). 
 (h) No Obligation to Recognize
Invalid Transfer. The Company shall not be required (1) to transfer on its books any of the Shares which shall have been sold or transferred in violation of any of the provisions set forth in this Section 4, or (2) to treat as
owner of such Shares or to pay dividends to any transferee to whom any such Shares shall have been so sold or transferred. 

(i) Legends. 

(1) At a minimum, the certificate representing Shares shall bear a legend substantially in the following form: 

“The shares represented by this certificate are subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Company, as provided in a
certain stock option agreement with the Company.” 
  

 4 

 (2) Furthermore, all certificates for Shares delivered hereunder shall be subject to such
stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Company may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Company’s common stock is then listed
or any national securities exchange system upon whose system the Company’s common stock is then quoted, or any applicable Federal, state or other securities law or other applicable corporate law, and the Company may cause a legend or legends to
be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 5. Agreement in Connection with Initial Public
Offering. 
 The Participant agrees, in connection with the initial underwritten public offering of the Common Stock pursuant
to a registration statement under the Securities Act, (i) not to (a) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option,
right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company or (b) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any
of the economic consequences of ownership of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, whether any transaction described in clause (a) or (b) is to be settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise, during the
period beginning on the date of the filing of such registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and ending 180 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the offering (plus up to an additional 34 days to the extent
requested by the managing underwriters for such offering in order to address Rule 2711(f) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any similar successor provision), and (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting clause
(i) above as may be requested by the Company or the managing underwriters at the time of such offering. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to the foregoing
restriction until the end of the “lock-up” period. 
 6. Withholding. 

No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this option unless and until the Participant pays to the Company, or makes provision
satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this option. 

7. Nontransferability of Option. 

Except as otherwise provided herein, this option may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the
Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Participant, this option shall be exercisable only by the Participant. 

8. No Rights as a Shareholder. The Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to any common stock covered by
the Shares unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such common stock and no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such common stock, except as otherwise
specifically provided for in the Plan. 
  

 5 

 9. No Obligation to Continue Employment. This agreement is not an agreement of employment. This
agreement does not guarantee that the Company will employ the Participant for any specific time period, nor does it modify in any respect the Company’s right to terminate or modify the Participant’s employment or compensation. 

10. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof. 
 11. Section 409A. The
intent of the parties is that benefits under this agreement be exempt from the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this agreement shall be interpreted to be limited, construed and
interpreted in accordance with such intent. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Participant by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply
with Section 409A of the Code hereunder or otherwise. 
 12. Provisions of the Plan. This option is subject to the provisions of the
Plan (including the provisions relating to amendments to the Plan), a copy of which is furnished to the Participant with this option. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this option to be executed under its corporate seal by its duly authorized officer. This
option shall take effect as a sealed instrument.

 In the
event that the Company terminates your employment without “Cause,” or you terminate your employment with the Company for “Good Reason,” then, provided you enter into and do not revoke a binding release of claims in favor of the
Company within 30 days of the date of your termination, which is reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Company shall pay to you, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, six (6) months of severance pay at your then

determines are required pursuant to any applicable law or regulations.
  

You represent that you are not bound by any employment contract, restrictive covenant or other restriction preventing you from entering into employment
with or carrying out your responsibilities for the Company, or which is in any way inconsistent with the terms of this letter.

distribution of the payments, if any, to be provided to you under your offer letter.

date of your “separation from service” from the Company, you are not a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A), then each installment of the severance payments shall be made on the dates and terms set forth
in your offer letter.
  
 3. If, as of the date of your “separation from
service” from the Company, you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A), then:
  

a. Each installment of the severance payments due under your offer letter that, in accordance with the dates and terms set forth
herein, will in all circumstances, regardless of when the separation from service occurs, be paid within the Short-Term Deferral Period (as hereinafter defined) shall be treated as a short-term deferral within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) to the maximum extent permissible under Section 409A. For purposes of your offer letter, the “Short-Term Deferral Period” means the period ending on the later of the fifteenth day of the third month
following the end of your tax year in which the separation from service occurs and the fifteenth day of the third month following the end of the Company’s tax year in which the separation from service occurs; and

 
 b. Each installment of the severance payments due under your
offer letter that is not described in paragraph 3(a) above and that would, absent this subsection, be paid within the six-month period following your “separation from service” from the Company shall not be paid until the date that is six
months and one day after such separation from service (or, if earlier, your death), with any such installments that are required to be delayed being accumulated during the six-month period and paid in a lump sum on the date that is six months and
one day following your separation from service and any subsequent installments, if any, being paid in accordance with the dates and terms set forth herein; provided, however, that the preceding provisions of this sentence shall not
apply to any installment of severance payments if and to the maximum extent that such installment is deemed to be paid under a separation pay plan that does not provide for a deferral of compensation by reason of the application of Treasury
Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (relating to separation pay upon an involuntary separation from service). Any installments that qualify for the exception under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) must be paid no later than the last
day of the second taxable year following the taxable year in which the separation from service occurs.
  

4. The determination of whether and when your separation from service from the Company has occurred shall be made and in a manner consistent with, and
based on the presumptions set forth in, Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). Solely for purposes of this paragraph 4, “Company” shall include all persons with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under
Section 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code.

			
		  	  
 5. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under your
offer letter shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are subject to Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that
(i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during your lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in your offer letter), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the
expense eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred and (iv) the
right to reimbursement is not subject to set off or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.
  

6. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have no liability to you or to any other person if the payments provided in your
offer letter that are intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A are not so exempt or compliant.
