Agreement between Avis Budget Group, Inc. and Larry De Shon

 Exhibit 10.6 
 February 21, 2008 
 Mr. Larry De Shon 
 Executive Vice President – Operations 
 Avis Budget Group 
 6 Sylvan Way 
 Parsippany, NJ 07054 
 Dear Larry:

 We are pleased to confirm your continued employment with Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC, (“ABCR” or the “Company”), a subsidiary of Avis
Budget Group, as Executive Vice President – Operations, reporting to Bob Salerno. 
 Your salary, paid on a bi-weekly basis, will be $14,615.39, which
equates to an annualized salary of $380,000. Your target bonus will be 75% of your regular base salary subject to the Company achieving performance goals as described in the Management Incentive Plan for ABG Senior Executive Leadership and will be
based upon your eligible base salary during the performance period. The bonus distribution is typically in the first quarter of the next year. 
 Per
ABCR’s standard policy, this letter is not intended, nor should it be considered, to be an employment contract for a definite or indefinite period of time. As you know, employment with ABCR is at will, and either you or ABCR may terminate your
employment at any time, with or without cause. 
 If, however, your employment with ABCR is terminated by ABCR other than: (i) “for cause” (as
defined below); (ii) in connection with your disability which prevents you from performing services for ABCR for a period of 12 months; or (iii) death, you will receive a lump-sum severance payment equal to 200% of your base salary plus
your target incentive (bonus) and perquisites to include car usage, financial planning and health coverage (Company-subsidized COBRA) for a period of 24 months (excluding group life insurance and AD&D insurance). For purposes of this agreement
‘company subsidized COBRA’ shall mean that the Company shall subsidize the total cost of COBRA such that the contributions required of you for health plan participation during the 24 month period shall be substantially equal to the
contributions required of active employed executives of ABG. All other programs and perquisites would be governed by their respective plan documents; provided, however, that the provision of such severance pay is subject to, and
contingent upon, your executing a separation agreement with ABCR, in such form determined by ABCR, which requires you, in part, to release all actual and purported claims against ABCR and its affiliates and which also requires you to agree to:
(i) protect and not disclose all confidential and proprietary information of ABCR; (ii) not compete, directly or indirectly, against ABCR for a period of no longer than one year after your employment separation or for a period of time and
within a geographic scope determined by ABCR to be reasonable to protect ABCR’s business interests; and (iii) not solicit any ABCR employees, consultants, agents or customers during and for one year after your employment separation.

 Mr. Larry DeShon

 In addition, a lump sum will be paid in cash in lieu of the time-vesting portion (RSUs but not PSUs) of your
stock-based awards which would have been expensed in accordance with their original vesting schedule by the one-year anniversary of your termination of employment. 
 “Termination for Cause” shall mean: (i) your willful failure to substantially perform your duties as an employee of the Company or any subsidiary (other than any such failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or
mental illness); (ii) any act of fraud, misappropriation, dishonesty, embezzlement or similar conduct against the Company or any subsidiary; or (iii) conviction of a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude (which conviction, due to
the passage of time or otherwise, is not subject to further appeal). 
 The by-laws of the Company provide that officers will be indemnified for their
authorized actions on behalf of our Company to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. 
 This severance pay as set forth in this letter is in
lieu of and supersedes any other severance benefits otherwise payable to you under any other agreement or severance plan of ABCR or its affiliates. 
 Regards,

Limited Liquidation Event of Default has occurred (subject, however, to Section 2.5 hereof), the Lessee may use BTF Trucks leased hereunder in its regular course of business, including subleasing BTF Trucks to Permitted Sublessees in
accordance with this Section 7. Such use shall be confined solely to the United States, and the principal place of business or rental office of the Lessee with respect to the BTF Trucks shall be located in the United States. The Administrator
shall promptly and duly execute, deliver, file and record all such documents, statements, filings and registrations and take such further actions as the Lessor or the Trustee shall from time to time reasonably request in order to establish, perfect
and maintain the Lessor’s rights to and interest in the BTF Trucks and the Certificates of Title as against the Lessee or any third party in any applicable jurisdiction and to establish, perfect and maintain the Trustee’s Lien on the BTF
Trucks and the Certificates of Title as a perfected first lien in any applicable jurisdiction. The Lessee may, at its sole expense, change the place of principal location of any BTF Trucks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change of location shall
be undertaken unless and until (x) all actions necessary to maintain the Lien of the Trustee on such BTF Trucks and the Certificates of Title with respect to such BTF Trucks shall have been taken and (y) all legal requirements applicable
to such BTF Trucks shall have been met or obtained. Following the occurrence of a Lease Event of Default, a Limited Liquidation Event of Default or a Liquidation Event of Default, the Lessee shall advise the Lessor in writing where all BTF Trucks
leased hereunder as of such date are principally located. The Lessee shall not knowingly use any BTF Trucks or knowingly permit the same to be used for any unlawful purpose. The Lessee shall use reasonable precautions to prevent loss or damage to
BTF Trucks. The Lessee shall comply with all applicable statutes, decrees, ordinances and regulations regarding acquiring, titling, registering, leasing, insuring and disposing of BTF Trucks and shall take reasonable steps to ensure that operators
are licensed. The Lessee and the Lessor agree that the Lessee shall perform, at the Lessee’s own expense, such BTF Truck preparation and conditioning services with respect to BTF Trucks leased by the Lessee hereunder as are customary. The
Lessor or the Trustee or any authorized representative of the Lessor or the Trustee may during reasonable business hours from time to time, without disruption of the Lessee’s business, subject to applicable law, inspect BTF Trucks and
registration certificates, Certificates of Title and related documents covering BTF Trucks wherever the same be located. In addition to its normal daily 

  

 4 

 
rental operations, the Lessee may sublease BTF Trucks to a Permitted Sublessee provided that (i) such Permitted Sublessee uses such BTF Trucks in the
regular course of its business and the regular course of such Permitted Sublessee’s business is renting vehicles on a daily basis, (ii) the aggregate Net Book Value of all BTF Trucks being subleased at any one time is less than ten percent
(10%) (or such other percentage as may be agreed to in writing by the Required Noteholders of each Series of Notes Outstanding at such time) of the aggregate Net Book Value of the Vehicles being leased under this Agreement at such time,
(iv) the applicable sublease agreement is substantially in the form of Attachment D hereto and (iii) the Lessee delivers to the Lessor and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, dated the date of the applicable Sublease, substantially to the
effect that (a) the applicable Sublease has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Lessee and the applicable Permitted Sublessee, (b) the applicable Sublease constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of
each of the Lessee and the applicable Permitted Sublessee, (c) there is no pending or threatened litigation which, if adversely determined, would materially and adversely affect the ability of each of the Lessee and the applicable Permitted
Sublessee to perform its obligations under the applicable Sublease, (d) the Subleases does not conflict with or violate any court decree, injunction, writ or order applicable to either the Lessee or the applicable Sublessee or result in a
breach or default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument of the Lessee or the applicable Permitted Sublessee and (e) the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests created by the Sublease. No such sublease to a
Permitted Sublessee shall release the Lessee or the Guarantor from any obligations under this Agreement. The Lessee shall not sublease any BTF Truck or assign any right or interest herein or in any BTF Truck to any Person other than a Permitted
Sublessee in accordance with this Section 7; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit the Lessee from renting BTF Trucks to third party customers in the ordinary course of its business.”

 Section 16.1.1 is hereby amended by adding the following phrase immediately after the phrase “request by the Lessee” at the end of the first sentence thereof:

circumstances occurring or arising in connection with such subleasing and any customer of any such Permitted Sublessee”.
