You will be eligible to participate in the Hertz Incentive Plan which provides for a target award in 2018 of 110% of your base salary.  For 2018 your target award will be prorated for actual days employed. Actual payout is contingent upon the Company’s performance and your individual performance.  Details of this plan will be provided to you upon commencement of your employment, and determination of actual payout is subject to the terms of the plan. Hertz retains the right and sole discretion to amend, modify or rescind such plan at any time and for any reason.

The equity grants will be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreements and the Hertz 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan and will be granted to you on the first business day of the quarter following or coincident with your start date based on the closing stock price of the day prior to the grant date. 

Should you voluntarily terminate your employment or be terminated for cause by Hertz within twelve months of your employment start date, you will be required upon such termination to pay back 100% of the cash award payments described in the prior paragraph to Hertz (and forfeit any right to such cash award payments not yet paid).
