PART I

ITEM 1.

BUSINESS

Except as expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company”, “Avis Budget”, “we”, “our” or “us” means Avis Budget Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries and “Avis Budget Car Rental” or “ABCR” means Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC, and its subsidiaries, the companies that comprise our vehicle rental operations. “Avis” and “Budget” refer to our Avis and Budget operations, respectively, and do not include the operations of our licensees, including Avis Europe and its affiliates, as further discussed below.

Overview

We operate two of the most recognized brands in the global vehicle rental industry through Avis and Budget. Avis is a leading rental car supplier positioned to serve the premium commercial and leisure segments of the travel industry and Budget is a leading rental car supplier focused primarily on more value-conscious segments of the industry. We are a leading vehicle rental operator in North America, Australia, New Zealand and certain other regions we serve and our licensees operate the Avis and Budget brands in more than 100 countries throughout the world. We generally maintain a leading share of airport car rental revenue and we operate one of the leading truck rental businesses in the United States.

Our car rental business enjoys significant benefits from operating two distinct brands that target different industry segments but share the same fleet, maintenance facilities, systems, technology and administrative infrastructure. We believe that Avis and Budget both enjoy complementary demand patterns with mid-week commercial demand balanced by weekend leisure demand. In 2010, we generated total revenues of $5,185 million. The Avis, Budget and Budget Truck brands accounted for approximately 62%, 31% and 7% of our revenue, respectively, in 2010.

On average, our rental fleet totaled more than 345,000 vehicles, and we completed more than 22 million vehicle rental transactions worldwide in 2010. In the United States, in 2010, we derived approximately 81% of our nearly $4.0 billion in total car rental revenue from on-airport locations and approximately 19% of our revenue from off-airport locations, which we refer to as our local market business. We also license the use of the Avis and Budget trademarks to licensees in areas in which we do not operate directly. Our brands have an extended global reach that include more than 10,000 car and truck rental locations throughout the world, including approximately 2,000 company-operated car rental locations primarily in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Argentina and approximately 5,800 car rental locations operated by licensees. We rent our fleet of approximately 27,000 Budget trucks through a network of approximately 2,250 dealer-operated and 200 company-operated locations throughout the continental United States.

Segment Information

We categorize our operations in three operating segments: domestic car rental, consisting of our Avis and Budget U.S. car rental operations; international car rental, consisting of our international Avis and Budget vehicle rental operations; and truck rental, consisting of our Budget truck rental operations in the United States. In 2010:

•

Domestic car rental. Our domestic car rental segment generated approximately 71 million rental days and average time and mileage revenue per day of $41.70 with an average rental fleet of approximately 268,000 vehicles;

•

International car rental. Our international car rental segment generated approximately 13 million rental days and average time and mileage revenue per day of $47.75 with an average rental fleet of approximately 51,000 vehicles; and

•

Truck rental. Our truck rental segment generated approximately 4 million rental days and average time and mileage revenue per day of $73.06 with an average rental fleet of approximately 27,000 trucks.

In 2010, while our rental day volumes increased modestly as travel demand began to rebound from the recent recession, our earnings increased substantially. To position our company for improving economic conditions, we continued the implementation of our five-point cost-reduction and efficiency-improvement plan, which we introduced in November 2008, and our Performance Excellence process improvement initiative to reduce expenses. The five-point plan has enabled us to realize cost savings since its initial implementation through:

•

Reductions in operating and selling, general and administrative expenses, including staff reductions in 2008, 2009 and 2010, many of which were trimmed from fixed and semi-fixed overhead;

•

A review of location, segment and customer profitability to identify and respond appropriately to unprofitable aspects of our businesses, which positively impacted our profit per transaction and our overall profitability but negatively impacted volume;

•

Targeted price increases and changes to our sales, marketing and affinity programs in order to improve revenue per day and overall profitability;

•

Reductions in fleet costs and further consolidation of purchasing programs; and

•

Further consolidation of customer-facing and back-office functions and locations across our operations.

In 2010, we not only completed more than 22 million vehicle rental transactions worldwide, but also made significant progress toward our strategic objectives. We retained approximately 99% of our commercial contracts and maintained, expanded or entered into new marketing alliances with key marketing partners, including with several major airlines. In 2010, Avis was again named the leading car rental company in customer loyalty by the Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement Index and was also named North America’s Leading Car Hire and World’s Leading Business Car Rental Company for the fifth consecutive year by the World Travel Awards. We achieved significant increases in customer satisfaction, as measured by post-transaction surveys completed by more than 500,000 of our customers in 2010. We also continued our long-standing tradition of being an innovator in the car rental industry, piloting automated check-out kiosks, offering portable satellite radio rentals and delivering more than 7 million electronic receipts to our customers. In 2010, as a result of our continued focus on car class upgrades and sales of ancillary products and services, we increased the revenues per rental day that we generate from car class upgrades, where2 GPS navigation unit rentals, loss damage waivers and insurance products, and other ancillary services.

In 2010, we maintained a diverse car rental fleet, in which no vehicle manufacturer represented more than 28% of our 2010 U.S. fleet purchases and we continued to adjust our fleet levels to be consistent with demand. We continue to utilize sophisticated yield-management technology to optimize our pricing and fleet planning, and we continue to analyze and streamline our operations to gain efficiencies. In addition, our more than 21,000 employees continue to provide reliable, high-quality vehicle rental services that foster customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.

Market Conditions and Outlook

•

Optimizing Our Two-Brand Strategy. We plan to continue to position our two distinct and well-recognized brands to focus on different segments of customer demand. With Avis as a premium brand preferred more by corporate and upscale leisure travelers, and Budget as a mid-tier brand preferred more by value-conscious travelers, we believe we are able to target a broad range of demand, particularly since the two brands share the same operational and administrative infrastructure while providing differentiated though consistently high levels of customer service. We aim to provide products, service

and pricing, to use various marketing channels and to maintain marketing affiliations and corporate account contracts, which complement each brand’s positioning. In 2011, we plan to invest in our brands through expanded television, print and on-line and off-line marketing, and other efforts.

•

Expanding Our Revenue Sources. We plan to continue to focus on promoting car class upgrades, adjusting our mix of vehicles to match customer demand, expanding our ancillary revenues by offering additional products and services to on- and off-airport customers and increasing, where appropriate, our recovery from our customers of costs imposed on us by third parties. Opportunities for ancillary revenue growth include adding sales of additional insurance coverages and insurance-related and other ancillary products and services, such as electronic toll collection services, satellite radio and our where2 GPS navigation product, to the rental transactions of an increasing percentage of our renters. We also plan to achieve incremental growth in revenue from small business and international customers.

•

Capturing Incremental Profit Opportunities. We plan to continue our focus on yield management and pricing optimization and seek to increase the time and mileage rental fees we earn per rental day. We have implemented technology that strengthens our yield management and that enables us to tailor our product/price offerings to specific customer segments. We expect to continue to adjust our pricing to bolster profitability and match changes in demand. In addition, we believe the expansion of our revenue sources (discussed above) should permit us to generate incremental profits from our customer base, while at the same time enhancing our customers’ vehicle rental experience. We plan to intensify our efforts to build customer loyalty, and reduce customer acquisition costs, through our Customer Led, Service Driven™ program that is intended to enhance our customers’ rental experience, from reservation to return.

•

Controlling Costs and Promoting Efficiencies. We have continued our efforts to rigorously control costs. We have taken aggressive action to reduce expenses throughout the organization, through a five-point cost-reduction and efficiency-improvement plan as described above. In addition, we continue to develop and implement our Performance Excellence process improvement initiative to increase efficiencies, reduce operating costs and create sustainable cost savings using LEAN, Six Sigma and other tools. This initiative has generated substantial savings since its implementation and should continue to provide benefits in 2011. We have also implemented technology solutions, including self-service voice reservation technology and fleet optimization technologies, to reduce costs, and we will continue to pursue innovative solutions to support our strategic initiatives. We believe such steps will continue to aid our financial performance.

•

Mitigating Risks. We expect to continue to face challenges, as demand for travel services is not likely to return in 2011 to the levels experienced before the economic recession, and we operate in a highly competitive industry. We seek to mitigate our exposure to risks in numerous ways, including the actions described above, and through continued optimization of fleet levels to match changes in demand for vehicle rentals, maintenance of liquidity to fund our fleet and our operations, and adjustments in the size, nature and terms of our relationships with vehicle manufacturers.

Company History

Avis Budget Group’s operations consist of two of the most recognized brands in the global vehicle rental industry through Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC, the parent of Avis Rent A Car System, LLC, Budget Rent A Car System, Inc. and Budget Truck Rental, LLC. Founded in 1946, Avis is believed to be the first company to rent cars from airport locations. Avis expanded its geographic reach throughout the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1963, Avis introduced its award winning “We try harder” advertising campaign, which is considered one of the top ten advertising campaigns of the 20th century by Advertising Age magazine. Budget was founded in 1958. The company name was chosen to appeal to the “budget-minded” or “value-conscious” vehicle rental customer. Avis possesses a long history of using proprietary information technology systems in its business, and its established, but continually updated, Wizard System remains the backbone of our operations.

We acquired the Avis brand in 1996, Avis’ capital stock in 2001, and the Budget brand and substantially all of the domestic and certain international assets of Budget’s predecessor in 2002. We were created through a merger with HFS Incorporated in December 1997 with the resultant corporation being renamed Cendant Corporation. On August 23, 2006, Cendant completed a separation into four separate companies (the “Separation”), one for each of its former Real Estate Services businesses (Realogy Corporation), its former Hospitality Services businesses (Wyndham Worldwide Corporation), its former Travel Distribution Services businesses (Travelport) and its Vehicle Rental businesses (Cendant, now Avis Budget Group). Following completion of the Separation, Cendant changed its name to Avis Budget Group, Inc. Our common stock currently trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “CAR”.

In addition to our vehicle rental operations, we continue to manage the administration of certain legacy items which remain following the completion of the Separation. In connection with the Separation, we entered into certain agreements, including the Separation and Distribution Agreement dated as of July 27, 2006 (the “Separation Agreement”), with Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport governing our relationships following the separation, including the assumption by Realogy and Wyndham of 62.5% and 37.5%, respectively, of certain contingent and other liabilities of Cendant.

Car rental business

Operations—Avis

We operate or license the Avis car rental system (the “Avis System”), which is comprised of approximately 5,050 locations worldwide and represents one of the largest car rental systems in the world. The Avis System encompasses locations at most of the largest airports and cities in the United States and internationally.

We operate approximately 1,250 Avis car rental locations in both the on-airport and local rental segments in North America, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America and the Caribbean. In 2010, our Avis operations generated total revenue of approximately $3.2 billion, of which approximately 80% (or $2.6 billion) was derived from U.S. operations. The Avis System in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and parts of Asia is primarily operated under royalty-free license agreements with a subsidiary of Avis Europe plc (“Avis Europe”), an independent third party, which generally expire in 2036, and is comprised of approximately 2,900 locations (as disclosed by Avis Europe) operated by Avis Europe and its sub-licensees. In addition, we license the Avis System to other independent business owners in approximately 900 locations throughout the United States, Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand and parts of Asia. In 2010, approximately 95% of the Avis System total U.S. revenue was generated by our locations and the remainder was generated by locations operated by independent licensees, which generally pay royalty fees to us based on a percentage of applicable revenue.

The table below presents the approximate number of locations that make up the Avis System:

Avis System Locations *


	U.S.		International		Total
Company-operated locations		950		300		1,250
Licensee locations		300		3,500		3,800

Total Avis System Locations		1,250		3,800		5,050

*	Location counts are approximate.

In 2010, Avis derived approximately 60% and 40% of its U.S. time and mileage revenue from commercial and leisure customers, respectively, and 79% and 21% of its U.S. revenue from customers renting at airports and locally, respectively.

The Avis brand provides high-quality car rental services at price points generally above non-branded and value-branded national car rental companies. We offer Avis customers a variety of premium services, including:

•

Avis Preferred, a counter bypass program, which is available at major airport locations;

•

where2, a navigation system that features Bluetooth hands-free calling and MP3 playback capability;

•

Avis Cool Cars, a line of fun-to-drive vehicles such as the Chevrolet Camaro, Ford Mustang, Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Corvette;

•

Availability of eco-friendly vehicles, such as gas/electric hybrid vehicles or the Chevrolet Cruze, which has an EPA-estimated highway fuel economy of 36 miles per gallon;

•

Roving Rapid Return, wireless technology which permits customers who are returning vehicles to obtain a printed charge record from service agents at the vehicle as it is being returned;

•

Emergency roadside assistance, and a 100% smoke-free car rental fleet;

•

Amenities such as Avis Blast, a portable satellite radio product, and Avis Access, a full range of special products and services for drivers and passengers with disabilities;

•

Avis Interactive, a proprietary management tool that allows corporate clients to easily view and analyze their rental activity via the Internet, permitting these clients to better manage their travel budgets and monitor employee compliance with applicable travel policies; and

•

Avis First, a customer loyalty program that rewards customers with additional benefits for frequent rentals.

Operations—Budget

We operate or license the Budget vehicle rental system (the “Budget System”), which is comprised of approximately 2,750 car rental locations and represents one of the largest car rental systems in the world. The Budget System encompasses locations at most of the largest airports and cities in the United States and internationally.

We operate approximately 750 Budget car rental locations in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Australia and New Zealand. In 2010, our Budget car rental operations generated total revenue of approximately $1.6 billion, of which 83% (or $1.3 billion) was derived from U.S. operations. The Budget System in Europe, Africa and the Middle East is primarily operated under a royalty-free license agreement, which generally expires in

2036, with a subsidiary of Avis Europe, and is comprised of approximately 1,050 locations (as disclosed by Avis Europe) operated by such subsidiary of Avis Europe and its sub-licensees. We also license the Budget System to independent business owners who operate approximately 950 locations throughout the United States, Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean and parts of Asia. In 2010, approximately 84% of the Budget System total U.S. revenue was generated by our locations with the remainder generated by locations operated by independent licensees, which generally pay royalty fees to us based on a percentage of revenues.

The table below presents the approximate number of locations that make up the Budget System:

Budget System Locations *


	U.S.		International		Total
Company-operated locations		600		150		750
Licensee locations		200		1,800		2,000

Total Budget System Locations		800		1,950		2,750

*	Location counts are approximate.

In 2010, Budget derived approximately 30% and 70% of its U.S. time and mileage car rental revenue from commercial and leisure customers, respectively, and 80% and 20% of its U.S. car rental revenue from customers renting at airports and locally, respectively.

Budget is a leading rental car supplier to more value-conscious segments of the industry. Budget offers its customers Fastbreak, an expedited rental service for frequent travelers, which operates much like Avis Preferred, as well as where2 navigation units and Roving Rapid Return, as described above. Budget also offers the Budget Small Business Program, a program for small businesses that provides discounted rates and central billing options, and Unlimited Budget, a loyalty program for travel professionals established by Budget over ten years ago.

Reservations

Customers can make Avis and Budget reservations through our Avis and Budget websites at avis.com and budget.com, through our reservation centers (also referred to as contact centers) toll-free at 1-888-777-AVIS and 1-800-BUDGET7, respectively, through online travel portals, through selected partners, including many major airlines utilizing direct connect technology, through travel agents, or by calling a location directly. Travel agents can access our reservation systems through all major global distribution systems (GDSs) and can obtain information with respect to rental locations, vehicle availability and applicable rate structures through these systems. In 2010, we introduced a voice reservation system which allows customers to conduct certain transactions such as confirmation, cancellation and modification of reservations using self-service voice response technology. We also launched an enhanced version of our Apple mobile application allowing customers to make, view, modify or cancel reservations or automatically include their profile using their iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.

Marketing

Avis and Budget support their premium and value-conscious brand positions through a range of marketing channels and campaigns, including traditional media, such as television, radio and print advertising, as well as Internet and direct marketing. Avis focuses its marketing around its industry-leading customer loyalty and its award-winning “We try harder” marketing campaign. Budget builds its marketing around retail advertising, key partnerships and online marketing campaigns.

We maintain strong links to the travel industry. Avis and Budget offer customers the ability to earn frequent traveler points with most major airlines’ frequent traveler programs. In 2010, we renewed and expanded our

partnership agreement with American Airlines and we also entered into new partnership agreements with Jet Blue’s and Frontier Airlines’ frequent flyer programs. Avis and Budget are also affiliated with the frequency programs of major hotel companies, including Hilton Hotels Corporation, Hyatt Corporation, Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc. and Wyndham Worldwide. These arrangements provide incentives to program participants and cooperative marketing opportunities, including call transfer programs and online links with various partners’ websites. Avis has an agreement with Wyndham Worldwide’s lodging brands whereby lodging customers making reservations by telephone may be transferred to Avis if they desire to rent a vehicle.

In 2010, approximately 83% of domestic vehicle rental transactions from our owned and operated Avis locations in the United States were generated by travelers who rented from Avis under contracts between Avis and the travelers’ employers or through membership in an organization with whom Avis has a contractual affiliation (such as AARP or Costco). Avis also has marketing relationships with organizations such as American Express Company, Mastercard International Incorporated and Sears Holding Corp., through which we are able to provide customers of these entities with incentives to rent from Avis. Avis licensees also generally have the option to participate in these affiliations. For commercial and leisure travelers who are unaffiliated with any of the employers or organizations that we contract with, Avis solicits business through media, direct mail, e-mail and Internet advertising. Avis conducts various loyalty programs through direct marketing campaigns, including Avis Preferred, which allows customers to bypass the rental counter when renting a vehicle, and Avis First, which offers our customers enhanced benefits for frequent rentals.

Additionally, Budget offers “Unlimited Budget”, a loyalty incentive program for travel agents, which had approximately 18,000 travel agents actively enrolled as of December 31, 2010 and which was expanded in 2010 to include Avis as a partner. Budget also offers the Budget Small Business Program, a program for small businesses that offers discounted rates, central billing options and rebates to members. Budget has contractual arrangements with American Express Company, Mastercard International Incorporated and other organizations, which offer members of these groups incentives to rent from Budget. In connection with its focus on value-conscious customers, Budget primarily relies on retail advertising, including Internet advertising, and on value pricing to drive customers to our Budget website, our call centers and other distribution channels. Budget also offers proprietary marketing programs such as Fastbreak, an expedited rental service for frequent renters. Our international Avis and Budget operations maintain close relationships with the travel industry through participation in several non-U.S. based frequent traveler programs with airlines such as Qantas Airways Limited, Air New Zealand and Air Canada. We have been selected as Qantas Airways’ exclusive car rental partner for its frequent flyer program, and have expanded our marketing agreement with Air Canada. We also participate in Avis Europe’s programs with British Airways Plc, Deutsche Lufthansa AG and other carriers.

Licensing

Revenue derived from our car rental licensees in 2010 totaled $45 million, including $43 million of royalties. Licensed locations range from large operations at major airport locations and territories encompassing an entire country to relatively small operations in suburban locations. Our licensees maintain separate independently owned fleets. Royalties generated from licensing provide us with a source of high margin revenue because there are relatively limited additional fixed costs associated with fees paid by licensees to us. Although licensed locations represent approximately 25% of the domestic Avis and Budget car rental locations, domestic locations operated by licensees represent only approximately 9% of total domestic revenue generated by the Avis and Budget Systems, because the average licensed operation is significantly smaller than the average corporate-operated location. We facilitate one-way car rentals between corporate-owned and licensed locations in the United States, Canada and Australia that enable us to operate as an integrated network of locations.

We generally enjoy good relationships with our licensees and meet regularly with them at regional, national and international meetings. Our relationships with licensees are governed by license agreements that grant the licensee the right to operate Avis or Budget car and/or truck rental businesses exclusively in certain territories. These agreements impose obligations on the licensee regarding its operations and most restrict the licensee’s

ability to transfer its license agreement and capital stock. Licensees are generally required to adhere to our system standards for each brand as updated and supplemented by our policy bulletins, brand manuals and service programs.

We maintain the right to monitor the operations of licensees and, when applicable, can declare a licensee to be in default under its license agreement. We can terminate license agreements for certain defaults, including failure to pay royalties and failure to adhere to our operational standards. Under agreements that predate our ownership of Avis or Budget, a limited number of licensees in the United States are also separately licensed to sell used cars under the Avis or Budget brand in certain territories. Our current domestic license agreements provide for a 20-year term and renewal terms, for no additional fee, so long as the licensee is not in default and provided that certain conditions are met. Some of our older domestic license agreements do not contain a fixed term, or provide for renewal terms for no additional fee so long as the licensee is not in default. Upon renewal, the terms and conditions of the license agreement may generally be amended from those contained in the expiring license agreements, while language in certain older license agreements may limit our ability to do so. The car rental royalty fee payable to us under license agreements is generally 5% to 8% of gross rental revenue but certain licensees of each brand, both internationally and domestically, have license agreements with different royalty fee structures, including Avis Europe, which operates for the most part under royalty-free license agreements.

Pursuant to their license agreements, some licensees must meet certain minimal requirements relating to the number of rental locations in their licensed territory, the number of vehicles available for rental and the amount of their advertising and promotional expenditures. In general, each license agreement provides that the licensee must not engage in any other vehicle rental business within the licensed territory during the term of such agreement and, in the Budget license agreement, for 12 months thereafter. Upon termination of a license, the licensee is also prohibited from using the Avis or Budget name and related marks in any business. In the United States, these license relationships constitute “franchises” under most federal and state laws regulating the offer and sale of franchises and the relationship of the parties to a franchise agreement.

Other Revenue

In addition to revenue from vehicle rentals and licensee royalties, we generate revenue from Avis and Budget customers through the sale and/or rental of optional products and services. Our employees offer products to customers that will better suit their rental experience, including loss damage waivers, insurance products such as additional/supplemental liability insurance or personal accident/effects insurance, products for driving convenience such as where2 GPS navigation units, optional emergency roadside assistance, fuel service options and electronic toll collection, and other ancillary products and services as described above, such as rentals of satellite radio units and child safety seats. In 2010, approximately 4% of our domestic vehicle rental operations revenue was generated by the sale of loss damage waivers, under which we agree to relieve a customer from financial responsibility arising from vehicle damage incurred during the rental period if the customer has not breached the rental agreement. In addition, we receive reimbursement from our customers for certain operating expenses we incur, including gasoline and vehicle licensing fees, as well as airport concession fees, which we pay in exchange for the right to operate at airports and other locations.

Websites

Avis and Budget have strong brand presence on the Internet through their websites, avis.com and budget.com, as well as third-party websites. Both Avis and Budget have agreements to promote their car rental services with major online travel agencies such as Expedia, Travelocity and Orbitz, and have a strong advertising presence on various search engines. Bookings over the Internet accounted for 36% of Avis’ 2010 domestic rentals, with 28% derived from bookings on avis.com, and for 54% of Budget’s 2010 domestic rentals, with 31% derived from bookings on budget.com.

The Wizard System

We own the Wizard System, our worldwide reservation, rental, data processing and information management system. The Wizard System enables us to process millions of incoming customer inquiries each day, providing our customers with accurate and timely information about our locations, rental rates and vehicle availability, as well as the ability to place or modify reservations. Additionally, the Wizard System is linked to all major travel distribution networks worldwide and provides real-time processing for travel agents, travel industry partners (such as airlines), corporate travel departments and individual consumers through our websites or calls to our contact centers. The Wizard System also provides personal profile information to our reservation and rental agents to help us better serve our customers.

We also use data supplied from the Wizard System and airline reservation systems in certain proprietary information management systems to maintain centralized control of major business processes such as fleet acquisition and logistics, sales to corporate accounts and determination of rental rates. The principal components of the systems we employ include:

•

Fleet planning model. We have created a comprehensive decision tool to develop fleet plans and schedules for the acquisition and disposition of our fleet, along with fleet age, mix, mileage and cost reports based upon these plans and schedules. This tool allows management to monitor and change fleet volume and composition on a daily basis and to optimize our fleet plan based on estimated business levels and available repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs. We also use third-party software to further optimize our fleet acquisition, rotation and disposition activities.

•

Yield management. We have created a yield management system which is designed to enhance profits by providing greater control of vehicle availability and rate availability changes at our rental locations. Our system monitors and forecasts supply and demand to support our efforts to optimize volume and rate at each location. Integrated into this yield management system is a fleet distribution module that takes into consideration the costs as well as the potential benefits associated with distributing vehicles to various rental locations within a geographic area to accommodate rental demand at these locations. The fleet distribution module makes specific recommendations for movement of vehicles between locations.

•

Pricing decision support system. Pricing in the vehicle rental industry is highly competitive and complex. To improve our ability to respond to rental rate changes in the marketplace, we have developed sophisticated systems to gather and report competitive industry rental rate changes every day. Our systems, using data from third-party reservation systems as its source of information, automatically scan rate movements and report significant changes to our staff of pricing analysts for evaluation. These systems greatly enhance our ability to gather and respond to rate changes in the marketplace.

•

Business mix model. We have developed a strategic planning model to evaluate discrete components of our business relative to each other. The model considers revenue and costs to determine the potential margin contribution of each discrete segment. The model develops business mix and fleet optimization recommendations by using data from our financial systems, the Wizard System and the fleet and revenue management systems along with management’s objectives and targets.

•

Enterprise data warehouse. We have developed a sophisticated and comprehensive electronic data storage and retrieval system which retains information related to various aspects of our business. This data warehouse allows us to take advantage of comprehensive management reports, query capability and easy access to data for strategic decision making for both brands.

•

Sales and marketing systems. We have developed a sophisticated system of online data screens which enables our sales force to analyze key account information of our corporate customers including historical and current rental activity, revenue and booking sources, top renting locations, rate usage

categories and customer satisfaction data. We use this information, which is updated weekly and captured on a country-by-country basis, to assess opportunities for revenue growth, profitability and improvement.

•

Interactive adjustments. We have developed a multi-linked customer data system which allows us to easily retrieve pertinent customer information and make needed adjustments to completed rental transactions online for superior customer service. This data system links with other accounting systems to handle any charge card transaction automatically.

Fleet

We maintain a single fleet of vehicles for Avis and Budget. We rent a wide variety of vehicles, including luxury and specialty vehicles. Our fleet consists primarily of vehicles from the current and immediately preceding model year.

We participate in a variety of vehicle purchase programs with major domestic and foreign vehicle manufacturers. General Motors is the featured supplier for Avis, and Ford is the featured supplier for Budget. During 2010, approximately 28%, 26% and 14% of the cars acquired for our U.S. car rental fleet were manufactured by General Motors, Ford and Chrysler, respectively, compared to 32%, 20% and 14% manufactured by General Motors, Ford and Hyundai, respectively, in 2009. During 2010, we also purchased BMW, Hyundai, Kia, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota and Volkswagen vehicles. We have continued to maintain a diverse fleet, with a mix of vehicles sourced from both domestic and foreign manufacturers, with 32% of vehicles acquired for our fleet sourced from foreign manufacturers.

We generally hold a vehicle in our domestic fleet for a term of four to 16 months. In 2010, on average approximately 47% of our domestic rental car fleet was comprised of vehicles subject to agreements requiring automobile manufacturers to repurchase them or guarantee our rate of depreciation during a specified period of time. Cars subject to these agreements are sometimes referred to as “program” cars and cars not subject to these agreements are sometimes referred to as “risk” cars. The programs in which we participate currently require that the program vehicles be maintained in our fleet for a minimum number of months (typically four to 11 months) and impose return conditions, including those related to mileage and condition. At the time of return to the manufacturer, we receive the price guaranteed at the time of purchase and are thus protected from fluctuations in the prices of previously-owned vehicles in the wholesale market at the time of disposition. The future percentages of program and risk vehicles in our fleet will be dependent on the availability and attractiveness of manufacturers’ repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs. We dispose of our risk vehicles largely through automobile auctions, including auctions that enable dealers to purchase vehicles online more quickly than through traditional auctions.

Of the approximately 294,000 cars from our rental car fleet that we sold in 2010 (compared to 348,000 that we sold in 2009), we sold approximately 55% pursuant to repurchase or guaranteed depreciation programs and the rest were sold through third-party channels such as wholesale auctions.

Our car rental business is subject to seasonal variations in customer demand, with the summer vacation period representing the peak season. The seasonal variation in demand, along with more localized changes in demand at each of our locations, causes us to vary our fleet size over the course of the year. For 2010, our average monthly car rental fleet size in the U.S. ranged from a low of approximately 233,000 vehicles in January to a high of approximately 300,000 vehicles in July. Compared to 2009, our average fleet size decreased approximately 1% in 2010. Average domestic fleet utilization for 2010, which is based on the number of rental days (or portion thereof) that vehicles are rented compared to the total amount of time that vehicles are available for rent, ranged from 78% in August to 65% in December and averaged 73% for 2010, which was generally consistent with 2009 levels. Our calculation of utilization may not be comparable to other companies’ calculation of similarly titled statistics.

We place a strong emphasis on vehicle maintenance for customer safety and customer satisfaction reasons, as well as because quick and proper repairs are critical to fleet utilization. To accomplish this task we employ a fully-certified National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (“ASE”) technician instructor at our headquarters. This instructor has developed a specialized training program for our 338 technicians who operate in approximately 85 maintenance and damage repair centers for both Avis and Budget in the United States. We use advanced diagnostic equipment, including General Motors’ Global Diagnostic System, Ford’s Integrated Diagnostic System, Chrysler’s wiTECH scan tool and Hyundai’s Global Diagnostic System. Our technician training department also prepares its own technical service bulletins that can be retrieved electronically at all of our repair locations. Approximately 84% of our technicians are ASE-certified.

Customer Service

We believe our commitment to delivering a consistently high level of customer service across all of our brands is a critical element of our success and strategy. In 2010, we initiated our Customer Led, Service Driven™ program, through which we intend to examine our customers’ service preferences and satisfaction levels, with a focus on improving the overall customer experience through the use of our customer relationship management system and enhanced employee training. We track customer satisfaction levels by sending daily location-specific surveys to recent customers. In 2010, we received over 500,000 responses to our online customer satisfaction survey (the Voice of the Customer Survey). The Voice of the Customer Survey asks customers to evaluate their overall satisfaction with their rental experience, among other things. Results are analyzed generally and by location to help further enhance our service levels to our customers. Management receives Voice of the Customer statistics and customer feedback daily via an on-line portal. In addition, we utilize a toll-free “800” number and a dedicated customer service e-mail address to allow customers of both Avis and Budget to report problems directly to our customer relations department. Location associates and managers also receive training and are empowered to resolve most customer issues at the location level. We prepare weekly and monthly reports on the types and number of complaints received for use by location management in conjunction with the customer satisfaction reports as feedback regarding customer service delivery.

Environmental Initiatives

Over the past several years, we have launched a number of initiatives to manage the environmental aspects of our business. We have focused on and expect to continue to focus on the environmental profile of our car rental fleet, as measured using the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) SmartWay Certification program. Many of the 2010 model year rental cars in our fleet met the standards for EPA SmartWay Certification. We also offer gas/electric hybrid cars for rent and flex fuel cars for rent for those seeking to minimize environmental impact through use of E-85 ethanol fuel, where available. We also offer a significant number of vehicles equipped for electronic toll collection, which published research indicates, reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide emissions as well as emissions of nitrogen oxides through reduced wait times at toll booths.

We are creating formal Environmental Management Systems (EMS) for key airport locations in accordance with ISO 14001 international standards. We use these standards to quantify the various environmental aspects of our business operations, and to manage these aspects, reducing our impact when and where practicable. For example, new car washes installed at our Avis and Budget facilities now recycle and reuse at least 80% of their wastewater.

We also offer corporate customers a carbon footprint calculator designed to work with our data warehouse and compute the emissions from their rental car use. We then offer our corporate customers a program to help them reduce their carbon impact, including through driver education, and the opportunity to use carbon offset credits aimed at making their rental car use carbon neutral. We have an alliance with Carbonfund.org, a leading non-profit provider of carbon offset credits, to enable both renters and corporate customers to offset the emissions from their rental car use.

Airport Concession Fees

In general, concession fees for on-airport locations are based on a percentage of total commissionable revenue (as defined by each airport authority), subject to minimum annual guaranteed amounts. Concessions are typically awarded by airport authorities every three to five years based upon competitive bids. Our concession agreements with the various airport authorities generally impose certain minimum operating requirements, provide for relocation in the event of future construction and provide for abatement of the minimum annual guarantee in the event of extended low passenger volume.

Competition

The car rental industry is characterized by intense price and service competition. Competition in our vehicle rental operations is based primarily upon price, reliability, vehicle availability, national distribution, usability of booking systems, ease of rental and return, and other elements of customer service. In addition, competition is influenced strongly by advertising, marketing and brand reputation. We compete primarily with the following car rental companies: Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., which operates the Hertz and Advantage brands; Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc.; Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company, which also operates the National Car Rental and Alamo brands; and Europcar.

Truck rental business

Operations

Budget’s truck rental business is one of the largest local and one-way truck rental businesses in the United States. The Budget truck rental business has a combined fleet of approximately 27,000 trucks, with an average truck age of five years, which is rented through a network of approximately 2,250 dealers and 200 company-operated locations throughout the continental United States. A certain number of our dealer locations are operated by our Budget car rental licensees. The Budget truck rental business serves both the consumer and light commercial sectors. The consumer sector consists primarily of individuals who rent trucks to move household goods on either a one-way or local basis. The light commercial sector consists of a wide range of businesses that rent light- to medium-duty trucks, which we define as trucks having a gross vehicle weight of less than 26,000 pounds, for a variety of commercial applications. In 2010, the Budget truck rental business generated total revenue of approximately $367 million.

We advertise in “yellow pages” telephone directories and purchase online ad placements and keywords to help promote our truck rental business to new and existing customers. Budget truck rental customers can make reservations through the Budget truck rental reservation center at 1-800-GO-BUDGET, through our Budget truck rental website at budgettruck.com, or by calling a location directly.

In 2010, we entered into a multi-year agreement under which we have the exclusive right to advertise truck rental services in the Mover’s Guide, an official U.S. Postal Service change of address product. We also began a targeted email marketing campaign to reach new customers. In addition, we have relationships with businesses and websites like moving.com and Pep Boys, a leading automotive aftermarket service and retail chain, to promote Budget’s truck rental business, as well as a relationship with AARP offering reduced rates to members.

Distribution

Budget’s truck rental business is offered through a national network, which included approximately 2,250 dealers as of December 31, 2010. These independently-owned dealers primarily operate self-storage facilities, rental centers, hardware stores, service stations and other similar retail service businesses. In addition to their principal businesses, the dealers rent our light- and medium-duty trucks to consumers and to our commercial accounts and are responsible for collecting payments on our behalf. The dealers receive a commission on all truck rentals and ancillary equipment rentals. Generally, agreements with dealers may be terminated by either party upon 30 to 90 days’ prior written notice.

Competition

The truck rental industry is characterized by intense price and service competition as well as competition based on location (proximity to customer). We compete with a large number of truck rental companies throughout the country, including U-Haul International, Inc., Penske Truck Leasing Corporation, Ryder System, Inc., Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company and many others.

Seasonality

Our truck rental operations are subject to seasonal demand patterns, with generally higher levels of demand occurring during the late spring and summer months when most self-moves occur, with the third quarter typically being our busiest quarter. Generally, December is also a strong month due to increased retail sales activity and package deliveries.

Ancillary Products and Insurance Coverages

We supplement our daily truck rental revenue by offering customers a range of ancillary optional products. We rent automobile towing equipment and other moving accessories such as hand trucks, furniture pads and moving supplies, as well as where2 GPS navigation units. We also make available to customers a range of optional liability-limiting products and coverages such as physical damage waivers, automobile towing protection, personal accident and cargo insurance, and supplemental liability insurance. These ancillary products enhance our appeal to consumers by offering customers “one-stop” moving services.

INSURANCE

We generally assume the risk of liability to third parties arising from vehicle rental services in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, in accordance with the minimum financial responsibility requirements (“MFRs”) and primacy of coverage laws of the relevant jurisdiction. In certain cases, we assume liability above applicable MFRs, but to no more than $1 million, pursuant to contractual obligations. In cases where we assume liability above applicable MFRs or in cases involving a negligent act on the part of the Company, we retain exposure for up to $1 million per occurrence and up to $10 million per occurrence, respectively, through a combination of (i) self-insurance and (ii) insurance coverage provided by an unaffiliated insurance carrier and reinsured by us. We provide such reinsurance through our captive insurance subsidiary, Constellation Reinsurance Co., Ltd. We purchase insurance coverage for exposures of more than $10 million per occurrence from a combination of unaffiliated excess carriers.

When a customer elects to purchase supplemental liability insurance, with limits of either $1 million or $2 million, we largely retain economic exposure to loss, since the insurance is provided by an unaffiliated carrier that is reinsured by our Constellation Reinsurance Co., Ltd. subsidiary.

We insure the risk of liability to third parties in Argentina, Australia and New Zealand through a combination of unaffiliated carriers and one of our affiliates. These carriers provide coverage supplemental to minimum local requirements.

POTENTIAL ACQUISITION OF DOLLAR THRIFTY AUTOMOTIVE GROUP, INC.

In September 2010, we announced an offer to purchase Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (“Dollar Thrifty”) for a combination of $45.79 in cash (which would include the proceeds of a pre-closing special dividend to be paid by Dollar Thrifty) and 0.6543 shares of our common stock per Dollar Thrifty share, or approximately $1.5 billion in aggregate (based on the price of our common stock at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on October 6, 2010). We expect that the cash portion of our offer would be funded through a combination of available cash and debt financing. We and Dollar Thrifty have agreed to cooperate with respect to

our efforts to pursue antitrust clearance. There can be no assurance as to the timing or outcome of the efforts to secure antitrust clearance for a potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, that any agreement with respect to a transaction will be reached, or as to the timing or terms thereof.

INTEREST IN CAREY HOLDINGS, INC.

We are an investor in Carey Holdings, Inc., the parent company of Carey International, Inc., a leading worldwide provider of chauffeured ground transportation services which operates directly or through licensees in approximately 550 cities and 60 countries around the world. As a result of a restructuring by Carey Holdings in January 2011, our percentage ownership was reduced to 1.2% of the company’s outstanding common stock.

TRADEMARKS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The service marks “Avis” and “Budget”, related marks incorporating the words “Avis” or “Budget”, and related logos and marks such as “We try harder” are material to our vehicle rental business. Our subsidiaries and licensees actively use these marks. All of the material marks used by the Avis and Budget Systems are registered (or have applications pending for registration) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office as well as in over 100 countries. Our subsidiaries own the marks and other intellectual property, including the Wizard System, used in our business.

FINANCIAL DATA OF SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

Financial data for our segments and geographic areas are reported in Note 21—Segment Information to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

REGULATION

We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations, including those relating to taxing and licensing of vehicles, trademark licensing, consumer credit, consumer protection, environmental protection, insurance, privacy and labor matters.

Environmental

The principal environmental regulatory requirements applicable to our vehicle rental operations relate to the ownership or use of tanks for the storage of petroleum products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and waste oils; the treatment or discharge of waste waters; and the generation, storage, transportation and off-site treatment or disposal of solid or liquid wastes. We operate 395 Avis and Budget locations worldwide at which petroleum products are stored in underground or above-ground tanks and maintain a storage tank liability insurance policy covering these locations. We have instituted an environmental compliance program designed to ensure that these tanks are in compliance with applicable technical and operational requirements, including the replacement and upgrade of underground tanks to comply with the December 1998 EPA upgrade mandate and periodic testing and leak monitoring of underground storage tanks. We believe that the locations where we currently operate are in compliance, in all material respects, with such regulatory requirements.

We may also be subject to requirements related to the remediation of, or the liability for remediation of, substances that have been released into the environment at properties owned or operated by us or at properties to which we send substances for treatment or disposal. Such remediation requirements may be imposed without regard to fault, and liability for environmental remediation can be substantial.

We may be eligible for reimbursement or payment of remediation costs associated with future releases from regulated underground storage tanks and have established funds to assist in the payment of remediation costs for releases from certain registered underground tanks. Subject to certain deductibles, the availability of funds,

compliance status of the tanks and the nature of the release, these tank funds may be available to us for use in remediating future releases from our tank systems.

Loss Damage Waivers

Twenty-four states have enacted legislation which requires disclosure to each customer at the time of rental that damage to the rented vehicle may be covered to some extent by the customer’s personal automobile insurance and that loss damage waivers may not be necessary. In addition, four states have statutes which establish or cap the daily rate that can be charged for loss damage waivers.

Insurance

As a result of our reinsurance of the optional insurance coverages that we offer through an unaffiliated third party insurance company as well as other insurance obligations, we are subject to regulation under the insurance statutes, including insurance holding company statutes, of the jurisdictions in which our insurance company subsidiaries are domiciled. These regulations vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, but generally require insurance holding companies and insurers that are subsidiaries of insurance holding companies to register and file certain reports, including information concerning their capital structure, ownership, financial condition and general business operations with the regulatory authority of the applicable jurisdiction, and require prior regulatory agency approval of changes in control of an insurer and intra-corporate transfers of assets within the holding company structure. Such insurance statutes may also require that we obtain limited licenses to sell optional insurance coverage to our customers at the time of rental.

Franchise Regulation

The aspect of our business that involves licensing third parties to operate locations under the Avis or Budget name, in exchange for the payment of a royalty, is regulated by various state franchising laws, as well as by the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”). The FTC requires that we make extensive disclosure to prospective licensees but does not require registration. A number of states require registration and/or disclosure in connection with licensing offers and sales. In addition, several states have “franchise relationship laws” that could limit our ability to, among other things, terminate license agreements or withhold consent to the renewal or transfer of these agreements. Although our licensing operations have not been materially adversely affected by such existing regulations, we cannot predict the effect of any future federal, state or local legislation or regulation.

Privacy

Laws in some countries and jurisdictions limit the types of information we may collect about individuals with whom we deal or propose to deal, as well as how we collect, retain and use the information that we are permitted to collect, some of which is non-public personally identifiable information. The centralized nature of our information systems requires the routine flow of information about customers and potential customers across national borders, particularly into the United States. If this flow of information were to become illegal, or subject to onerous restrictions, our ability to serve our customers could be seriously impaired for an extended period of time. In addition, our failure to maintain the security of the data we hold, whether as a result of our own error or the actions of others, could harm our reputation or give rise to legal liabilities leading to lower revenue, increased costs and otherwise adversely impact our results of operations. In addition, the Payment Card Industry (the “PCI”) imposes strict customer credit card data security standards to ensure that customers’ credit card information is protected. Failure to meet the PCI data security standards could result in substantial increased fees to credit card companies, other liabilities and/or loss of the right to collect credit card payments.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2010, we employed approximately 21,000 employees, of which approximately 7,000 were employed on a part-time basis. Approximately 28% of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe our employee relations are satisfactory. We have never experienced a large-scale work stoppage.

COMPANY INFORMATION

Our principal executive office is located at 6 Sylvan Way, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054 (telephone number: (973) 496-4700). We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance therewith, we file reports, proxy and information statements and other information with the Commission and certain of our officers and directors file statements of changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4 with the Commission. Such reports (including our annual reports on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, our current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to such reports), proxy statements, other information and Form 4s can be accessed on our website at www.avisbudget.com as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Commission. A copy of our Codes of Conduct and Ethics, as defined under Item 406 of Regulation S-K, including any amendments thereto or waivers thereof, Corporate Governance Guidelines, Director Independence Criteria and Board Committee Charters can also be accessed on our website.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider each of the following risks and all of the other information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on the information currently known to us, we believe that the following information identifies the most significant risk factors affecting our Company in each of these categories of risk. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

Risks related to our business

The high level of competition in the vehicle rental industry may lead to reduced rental volumes and increased pricing pressure, which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

The vehicle rental industry in which we operate is highly competitive. We believe that price is one of the primary competitive factors in the vehicle rental industry. Our competitors, some of whom may have access to substantial capital, may seek to compete aggressively on the basis of pricing. To the extent our competitors reduce their pricing, price increases we may seek to implement are not competitive or we do not match or remain within a reasonable competitive margin of our competitors’ pricing, we may lose rental volume. We could be further impacted if we are unable to adjust the size of our rental fleet in response to fluctuations in demand.

The risk of competition on the basis of pricing in the truck rental industry can be even more intense than in the car rental industry because it can be more difficult to reduce the size of our truck rental fleet in response to reduced demand. The Internet has increased pricing transparency among vehicle rental companies by enabling cost-conscious customers to more easily obtain and compare the rates available from various vehicle rental companies for any given rental. This transparency may increase the prevalence and intensity of price competition in the future.

We face risks of increased fleet costs, both generally and due to the possibility that manufacturers could change or cease their repurchase or guaranteed depreciation programs.

Fleet costs, which represent our largest single expense, represented approximately 25% of our aggregate expenses for 2010 and can vary from year to year based on the prices at which we are able to purchase and dispose of rental vehicles. In 2010, on average approximately 47% of our domestic rental car fleet was comprised of vehicles subject to agreements requiring automobile manufacturers to repurchase them or guarantee the depreciation rate for a specified period of time. We refer to such agreements as “programs” and to cars subject to such agreements as “program cars”. Under these programs, automobile manufacturers agree to repurchase cars at a specified price during a specified time period or guarantee the rate of depreciation for a specified period of time, typically subject to certain car condition and mileage requirements. These programs therefore enable us to determine, in advance, our depreciation expense, which is a significant component of our fleet costs. Programs also limit the risk to us that the market value of a car, at the time of its disposition, will be less than its estimated residual (or depreciated) value; however, such programs result in additional exposure to the manufacturers with whom we have such agreements. See “We face risks related to the financial condition of automobile manufacturers and the used vehicle marketplace”.

Automobile manufacturers may not continue to sell program cars to us at all or on terms consistent with past practice. The overall cost of program cars could also increase if the manufacturers were to make changes to such programs, particularly if such changes were to result in an adverse impact in the repurchase price or guaranteed depreciation without a corresponding decrease to the original purchase price. Programs also generally provide us with flexibility to reduce the size of our fleet rapidly in response to an economic slowdown or changes in demand by disposing of cars sooner than originally expected. This flexibility may be reduced in the future to the extent we reduce the percentage of program cars in our car rental fleet or this feature of the programs is altered.

Our per-unit fleet costs could also increase if we decide to purchase fewer vehicles than previously agreed to, as we receive payments from manufacturers, known as “incentive payments”, once certain conditions are met such as reaching certain purchase volumes, or if manufacturers eliminate or reduce the terms of these incentive programs. Any increase in our per-unit fleet costs could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

We face risks related to the financial condition of automobile manufacturers and the used vehicle marketplace.

Approximately 28%, 26% and 14% of the cars we acquired for our domestic fleet in 2010 were manufactured by General Motors, Ford and Chrysler, respectively. A majority of these cars, and a portion of our cars manufactured by foreign manufacturers, are program cars. If a manufacturer were to default under its agreements with us as a result of bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, we could incur material expenses if the prices at which we were able to dispose of program cars were less than the specified prices under the applicable program. This effect may be magnified because we typically pay the manufacturer of a program car more than we would pay to buy the same car as a non-program, or “risk”, vehicle and because we depreciate a program car to the repurchase price or the guaranteed depreciation agreed to by the manufacturer. This price does not take into consideration conditions in such marketplace and is usually therefore higher than the price that would be available in the used car marketplace.

On average approximately 47% of our domestic rental car fleet in 2010 was comprised of program cars and we also receive incentive payments from manufacturers following the purchase of some of our vehicles once certain conditions are met such as reaching certain purchase volumes. Failure by a manufacturer to fulfill its obligations under any program agreement or incentive payment obligation could leave us with a substantial unpaid claim against the manufacturer particularly with respect to program cars that were either (i) resold for an amount less than the amount guaranteed under the applicable program and therefore subject to a “true-up” payment obligation from the manufacturer or (ii) returned to the manufacturer but for which we were not yet paid and therefore we could incur a substantial loss as a result of such failure to perform.

We currently sell non-program vehicles through auctions, third-party resellers and other channels in the used vehicle marketplace. Such channels may not produce stable used vehicle prices. A reduction in residual values for non-program cars and trucks in our vehicle rental fleet could cause us to sustain a substantial loss on the ultimate sale of such vehicles or require us to depreciate those vehicles at a more accelerated rate while we own them.

Any reduction in the market value of the vehicles in our fleet could effectively increase our fleet costs, adversely impact our profitability and potentially lead to decreased capacity in our asset backed car rental funding facilities due to the collateral requirements for such facilities which effectively increase as market values for vehicles decrease. In addition, if our ability to sell vehicles in the used vehicle marketplace were to become severely limited at a time when required collateral levels were rising, principal under our asset-backed financing facilities may be required to be repaid sooner than anticipated with vehicle disposition proceeds and lease payments we make to our vehicle program subsidiaries. If that were to occur, the holders of our asset-backed debt may have the ability to exercise their right to instruct the trustee to direct the return of program vehicles and/or the sale of non-program vehicles to generate proceeds sufficient to repay such debt.

We face risks associated with sourcing vehicles for our fleet and potential safety recalls affecting vehicles in our fleet.

We currently source our vehicles from both U.S. and non-U.S. auto manufacturers, including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Hyundai, Nissan, Kia, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. To the extent these or other auto manufacturers significantly curtail production, or determine to curtail sales to us or the vehicle rental industry for any reason, we may not be able to obtain a sufficient number of vehicles to operate our business without

significantly increasing our fleet costs. In addition, our vehicles may be subject to safety recalls by their manufacturers, which could have a similar impact on our business if we remove such recalled vehicles from our rentable fleet. If a large number of cars were to be the subject of simultaneous recalls, or if needed replacement parts are not in adequate supply, we may not be able to re-rent recalled cars for a significant period of time. We could also face liability claims related to vehicles subject to a safety recall. Depending on the nature and severity of the recall, it could adversely affect our revenues, create customer service problems, reduce the residual value of the cars involved, harm our general reputation and/or have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Weakness in general economic conditions in the United States and worldwide, weakness in travel demand and the housing market, and/or a significant increase in fuel costs can adversely impact our business.

Historically, our results of operations have declined during periods of general economic weakness, and our results were adversely impacted in 2008 and 2009 due to the economic recession. If economic conditions in the United States and worldwide were to weaken, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely impacted in 2011 and beyond.

In 2010, we generated approximately 81% of our domestic car rental revenue from our on-airport locations; therefore, a decline in airline travel will typically have a direct adverse impact on our results of operations. Significant airline capacity reductions, airfare or related fee increases, any event that disrupts or reduces business or leisure air travel such as work stoppages, military conflicts, terrorist incidents, natural disasters, epidemic diseases, or the response of governments to any of these events, could result in reduced air travel and have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Significant increases in fuel prices, a severe protracted disruption in fuel supplies or rationing of fuel could discourage customers from renting cars or reduce or disrupt air travel.

Our truck rental business can also be impacted by the housing market. If conditions in the housing market were to weaken, we may see a decline in truck rental transactions, which could have an adverse impact on our business.

We may not be successful in implementing our business strategies.

For 2011, our objective is to focus on growing our business profitably, strengthening our position as a leading provider of vehicle rental services and maintaining and enhancing efficiencies achieved through process improvement and other actions, including certain core strategic initiatives, such as optimizing our two-brand strategy, expanding our revenue sources, capturing incremental profit opportunities, and controlling costs and promoting efficiencies. If we are not successful in these initiatives, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

We are dependent on third-party distribution channels, and the success of our business depends in significant part on these relationships.

We generate approximately 47% of our domestic car rental reservations through third-party distribution channels, which include:

•

traditional and online travel agencies, airlines and hotel companies, marketing partners such as credit card companies and membership organizations, and other entities that help us attract customers; and

•

global distribution systems, such as Amadeus, Galileo/Apollo, Sabre and Worldspan that connect travel agents, travel service providers and corporations to our reservations systems.

In 2010, approximately 18% and 2% of our domestic car rental reservations came through our largest GDS source and our largest non-GDS third-party source of reservations, respectively. The operators of some third-

party distribution channels can cancel or modify their agreements with us upon relatively short notice. Changes in our pricing agreements, commission schedules or arrangements with third-party distribution channels, the termination of any of our relationships or a reduction in the transaction volume of such channels, or a GDS’s inability to process and communicate reservations to us could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business is seasonal, and a disruption in rental activity during our peak season could adversely affect our results of operations.

Seasonal changes in our revenues do not alter certain of our expenses, like rent and insurance, that are fixed in the short run, typically resulting in higher profitability in periods when our revenues are higher and lower profitability in periods when our revenues are lower. In our business, the third quarter of the year has historically been our strongest quarter due to the increased level of leisure travel and household moving activity. In 2010, the third quarter accounted for 29% of our total revenue for each of our Domestic Car Rental, International Car Rental and Truck Rental segments and was our most profitable quarter for each of our segments as measured by Adjusted EBITDA. Any circumstance or occurrence that disrupts rental activity during the third quarter could have a disproportionately adverse impact on our financial condition and our results of operations.

Our derivative instruments may impact our results of operations.

We typically utilize derivative instruments to manage a portion of our risk related to fluctuations in interest rates, gas prices and foreign exchange rates. The derivative instruments we use are usually in the form of interest rate and commodity swaps and foreign exchange forwards. Periodically, we are required to determine the change in fair value, called the “mark to market,” of some of these derivative instruments, which can result in a non-cash charge or gain being recognized in our financial results. Significant changes or shifts in interest rates, gas prices and foreign exchange rates will impact the valuation of our derivatives and therefore could expose us to substantial mark-to-market losses or gains if such rates or prices fluctuate materially from the time the derivatives were entered into. Accordingly, a fluctuation in such rates or prices may impact our financial position, results of operations and current or future cash flows. In addition, volatility in rates and prices can also impact the cost and effectiveness of our derivative instruments in managing our risks. To the extent any of our derivatives were to result in a gain upon settlement, we would be exposed to credit risk of the counterparties to such derivatives, which are typically large financial institutions.

We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, which may adversely affect our results of operations.

Certain of our international operations generate revenue and incur operating costs in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, including our operations in Australia, Canada and New Zealand. In addition, the financial position and results of operations of some of our foreign subsidiaries are reported in the relevant local currency and then translated to U.S. dollars at the applicable currency exchange rate for inclusion in our consolidated financial statements. Changes in exchange rates between these foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar will affect the recorded levels of our assets and liabilities, to the extent such figures reflect the inclusion of foreign assets and liabilities that are translated into U.S. dollars for presentation in our financial statements, as well as our results of operations. While we take steps to manage our currency exposure, we cannot accurately predict the nature or extent of future exchange rate variability, which could adversely impact our results of operations and financial position.

We face risks arising from our heavy reliance on communications networks and centralized information systems.

We rely heavily on information systems, including our reservation system, to accept reservations, process rental and sales transactions, manage our fleet of vehicles, account for our activities and otherwise conduct our

business. We have centralized our information systems, and we rely on communications service providers to link our systems with the business locations these systems serve. A failure of a major system, or a major disruption of communications between the system and the locations it serves, could cause a loss of reservations, interfere with our ability to manage our fleet, slow rental and sales processes, and otherwise adversely affect our ability to manage our business effectively. Our systems’ business continuity plans and insurance programs seek to mitigate such a risk, not eliminate it.

We face risks related to liability and insurance.

Our businesses expose us to claims for personal injury, death and property damage related to the use of our vehicles and for workers’ compensation claims and other employment-related claims by our employees. We may become exposed to uninsured liability at levels in excess of our historical levels resulting from unusually high losses or otherwise. In addition, liabilities in respect of existing or future claims may exceed the level of our reserves and/or our insurance, which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, insurance with unaffiliated carriers may not continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms or at all.

We face risks related to our locations.

We lease or have vehicle rental concessions for both the Avis and Budget brands at locations throughout the world, including at airports both in the United States and internationally where vehicle rental companies are frequently required to bid periodically for the available locations. If we were to lose any lease or vehicle rental concession, particularly at an airport in a major metropolitan area, there can be no assurance that we would be able to find a suitable replacement on reasonable terms or at all and our business could be adversely affected.

Environmental regulations could subject us to liability for fines or damages.

We are subject to federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations in connection with our operations, including, among other things, with respect to the ownership and operation of tanks for the storage of petroleum products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and motor and waste oils. We have established a compliance program for our tank systems that is intended to ensure that the tanks are properly registered with the state or other jurisdiction in which the tanks are located and have been either replaced or upgraded to meet applicable leak detection and spill, overfill, corrosion protection and vapor recovery requirements. These tank systems may not at all times remain free from undetected leaks, and the use of these tanks may result in significant spills, which may expose us to material liabilities.

We have made, and will continue to make, expenditures to comply with environmental laws and regulations, including, among others, expenditures for the cleanup of contamination at our owned and leased properties, as well as contamination at other locations at which our wastes have reportedly been identified. Our compliance with existing or future environmental laws and regulations may, however, require material expenditures by us or otherwise have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Changes in the U.S. and foreign legal and regulatory environment that affect our operations, including laws and regulations relating to the environment, insurance products we sell, consumer privacy, data security, employment matters, taxes, automobile-related liability and insurance rates, could disrupt our business, increase our expenses or otherwise have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

We are subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations in the United States and the other countries and jurisdictions in which we operate, and changes in the level of government regulation of our business have the potential to materially alter our business practices, financial position and results of operations. Depending on the jurisdiction, those changes may come about through the issuance of new laws and regulations, or changes in the interpretation of existing laws and regulations by a court, regulatory body or governmental official.

Optional insurance products, including, but not limited to, supplemental liability insurance, personal accident insurance and personal effects protection, we offer to renters providing various insurance coverages in our domestic vehicle rental operations, are regulated under state laws governing such products. In our international car rental operations, our offering of optional products providing insurance coverages historically has not been regulated. Any changes in U.S. or foreign law that change our operating requirements with respect to optional insurance products could increase our costs of compliance or make it uneconomical to offer such products, which would lead to a reduction in revenue and profitability. If customers decline to purchase supplemental liability insurance products from us as a result of any changes in these laws or otherwise, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

In almost every state, we recover from consumers various costs associated with the title and registration of our vehicles. In addition, where permitted, we also recover from consumers certain costs, including concession costs imposed by an airport authority or the owner and/or operator of the premises from which our vehicle is rented. Our long-standing business practice has been to separately state the existence of these additional costs in our rental agreements and invoices, and disclose to consumers additional surcharges used to recover such costs together with an estimated total price, inclusive of these surcharges, in all distribution channels. We believe that this standard practice comports with the Federal Trade Commission Act and has been upheld by several courts. We may in the future be subject to potential legislative changes or administrative action which could limit, restrict or prohibit our ability to separately state, charge and recover such costs, which would result in an adverse cost reallocation. If any such changes were to be enacted there may be an adverse impact or limitation on our ability to recover all of the surcharges we currently charge, which could adversely impact our profitability and results of operations.

In 2005, federal legislation was enacted that pre-empted state laws which imputed tort liability solely based on ownership of a vehicle involved in an accident. If the current law were to change, our insurance liability exposure could materially increase.

The U.S. Congress and other legislative and regulatory authorities in the United States and internationally have considered, and will likely continue to consider, numerous measures related to climate change and greenhouse gas emissions. Should rules establishing limitations on greenhouse gas emissions or rules imposing fees on entities deemed to be responsible for greenhouse gas emissions become effective, demand for our services could be affected, our fleet and/or other costs could increase, and our business could be adversely affected.

We may be held responsible by regulators, courts or others for the actions of, or failures to act by, our licensees, dealers or independent operators, which exposes us to possible fines, other liabilities and negative publicity.

Our car and truck rental licensee and dealer locations are independently owned and operated. We also operate many of our corporate locations through agreements with “agency operators,” which are third-party independent contractors who receive commissions to operate such locations. Our agreements with our licensees, dealers and agency operators (“third-party operators”) generally require that they comply with all laws and regulations applicable to their businesses, including our internal policies and standards. Under these agreements, third-party operators retain control over the employment and management of all personnel. Regulators, courts or others may seek to hold us responsible for the actions of, or failures to act by third-party operators. Although we actively monitor the operations of these third-party operators, and under certain circumstances have the ability to terminate their agreements for failure to adhere to contracted operational standards, we are unlikely to detect all problems. Moreover, there are occasions when the actions and activities of third-party operators may not be clearly distinguishable from our own. It is our policy to vigorously seek to be dismissed from any such claims and to pursue indemnity for any adverse outcomes. Failure of third-party operators to comply with laws and regulations may expose us to liability, damages and publicity that may adversely affect our business.

Any failure by us to protect confidential information of our customers against security breaches could damage our reputation and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Third parties may have the technology or expertise to breach the security of our customer transaction data and our security measures may not prevent such breaches, which could result in substantial harm to our business and results of operations and damage to our reputation. We rely on encryption and/or authentication technology licensed from third parties to effect secure transmission of confidential information, including credit card numbers. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, or other developments may result in a compromise or breach of the technology we use to protect customer transaction data. In addition, anyone who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. Any such compromise of our security could damage our reputation and brand and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability, which would substantially harm our business and results of operations.

In addition, the PCI imposes strict customer credit card data security standards to ensure that our customers’ credit card information is protected. Failure to meet the PCI data security standards could result in substantial increased fees to credit card companies, other liabilities and/or loss of the right to collect credit card payments, which could adversely impact operations. Failure to protect customer credit card and other information can also result in governmental investigations or material civil or criminal liability.

We face risks associated with our like-kind exchange program.

We utilize a like-kind exchange program whereby we replace vehicles in a manner that allows tax gains on disposed vehicles to be deferred. The program has resulted in a material deferral of federal and state income taxes beginning in 2004. The benefit of deferral is dependent on reinvestment of vehicle disposition proceeds in replacement vehicles within a prescribed period of time (usually six months). An extended downsizing of our fleet could result in reduced deferrals, utilization of tax attributes and increased payment of federal and state income taxes, which could require us to make material cash payments. Such a downsizing or reduction in purchases would likely occur if, and to the extent, we are unable to obtain financing when our asset backed rental car financings mature and could also occur in connection with a significant decrease in demand for vehicle rentals. Therefore, we cannot offer assurance that the expected tax deferral will continue or that the relevant law concerning the program will remain in its current form.

Risks related to our potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty and other potential acquisitions or investments

There are risks associated with our potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

In addition to the risks we face in connection with acquisitions and indebtedness generally as described herein, we face risks associated with the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, each of which may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. Such risks include: our level of indebtedness and/or our cost of indebtedness following an acquisition of Dollar Thrifty will be higher than our existing indebtedness and/or cost of indebtedness and may subject us to additional restrictive covenants; any issuance of our shares in such an acquisition will result in dilution to our existing stockholders; our credit ratings may be adversely affected, which may impact the cost of future borrowings; the potential need for approval by Dollar Thrifty’s shareholders may delay, prevent or otherwise adversely impact an acquisition of Dollar Thrifty; the market price of our common stock or other securities may decline as a result of a proposed or actual acquisition of Dollar Thrifty; costs associated with a proposed or actual acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, including potential liability for termination fees; and a proposed or actual acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, or our failure to complete such an acquisition, may result in our being subject to unknown liabilities and litigation, including pending or future litigation involving the sale of Dollar Thrifty.

There can be no assurance as to the timing or outcome of the efforts to secure antitrust clearance for the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, that any agreement with respect to a transaction will be reached, or as to the timing or terms thereof.

In the event we consummate the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, we may not be able to successfully integrate Dollar Thrifty or realize the potential benefits of the proposed acquisition, which could cause our business to suffer.

We may not be able to combine successfully the operations of Dollar Thrifty with our operations if the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty is consummated and, even if such integration is accomplished, the potential benefits of the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty may be less than we currently expect, or may not be realized at all. The integration of Dollar Thrifty with our operations will require significant attention from management and may impose substantial demands on our operations or other projects. The difficulties of integrating Dollar Thrifty’s operations with our operations include, among other things:

•

possible inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies, and compensation structures between Dollar Thrifty’s structures and our structures;

•

limitations prior to the consummation of the acquisition on our ability to work with Dollar Thrifty management to develop an integration plan;

•

the increased scope and complexity of our operations;

•

the retention of key employees;

•

provisions in our and Dollar Thrifty’s contracts with third parties that limit our flexibility to take certain actions;

•

the consolidation of corporate and administrative infrastructures; and

•

the possibility of costs or inefficiencies associated with the integration of operations of the combined company.

Any of these factors could cause delays or increased costs of combining the companies could adversely affect our operations, financial results and liquidity.

Our ability to consummate the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty on terms that are favorable to us may also be limited by internal demands on our resources and our ability to obtain financing.

We must obtain governmental and regulatory consents to consummate the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, which, if delayed, not granted or granted with unacceptable conditions, may jeopardize or delay the proposed acquisition, result in additional expenditures of money and resources and/or reduce the anticipated benefits of the combination contemplated by the proposed acquisition.

The proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty is conditioned on the receipt of all material governmental authorizations, consents, orders and approvals, including U.S. antitrust clearance. If we do not receive these approvals, or do not receive them on terms that satisfy the conditions set forth in any definitive acquisition agreement, or offer, then we may not be able to consummate the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

The governmental agencies from which we will seek these approvals have broad discretion in administering the governing regulations. As a condition to their approval of the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, agencies may impose requirements, limitations or costs or require divestitures or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business. These requirements, limitations, costs, divestitures or restrictions could jeopardize or delay the consummation of the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty and/or may reduce the anticipated benefits of the combination contemplated by the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty. Further, no assurance can be given that the required consents and approvals will be obtained, and, if all required consents and

approvals are obtained, no assurance can be given as to the terms, conditions and timing of the approvals. Such terms and conditions could result in a failure to complete the proposed acquisition of Dollar Thrifty or have an adverse effect on the business and results of operations of the combined company.

Acquisitions of existing Avis or Budget licensees, or acquisitions or investments in other businesses could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

We have acquired and may acquire existing licensees and/or other businesses in the future and have invested in and may further invest in other businesses. These acquisitions and investments may involve numerous risks, including those associated with integrating operations, technology and personnel into our business, potential disruption of our ongoing business and distraction of management, and exposure to existing as well as unknown liabilities, including litigation involving the acquired entity. Such acquisitions and/or investments may not be accretive to our earnings and may negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks related to our indebtedness

We have a substantial amount of debt, which could impair our financial condition and adversely affect our ability to react to changes in our business.

As of December 31, 2010, our total debt was approximately $7.0 billion and we had $797 million of available letter of credit and borrowing capacity under our senior credit facilities. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences, including:

•

limiting our ability to borrow additional amounts to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, execution of our business strategy, or acquisitions and other purposes;

•

requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest on our debt, which would reduce the funds available to us for other purposes; and

•

making us more vulnerable to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions, in government regulation and in our business by limiting our flexibility in planning for, and making it more difficult for us to react quickly to, changing conditions.

Our ability to make payments on and refinance our debt depends on our ability to generate cash flow and financial market conditions. To some extent, this is subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our business may not generate cash flow from operations at levels sufficient to permit us to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness, and our cash needs may increase. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service our debt and meet our other cash needs, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell or curtail assets or operations, seek additional capital, or seek to restructure or refinance our indebtedness. If we must sell or curtail our assets or operations, it may negatively affect our ability to generate revenue.

Despite our current indebtedness levels, we may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness.

Subject to the specified limitations referred to above, the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes limit, but do not prohibit, us from incurring additional indebtedness in the future. As noted above, as of December 31, 2010, our revolving senior credit facilities provided us with aggregate capacity of up to $1,175 million, $797 million of which was available for borrowings. All of those borrowings would be secured and the lenders under our senior credit facilities would have a prior claim to the assets that secure such indebtedness. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the risks described above could intensify.

We may be unable to remain in compliance with the financial or other covenants contained in our debt instruments, including our senior credit facilities.

Many of our debt instruments, including our senior credit facilities, contain financial and other covenants that impose significant requirements on us and limit our ability to engage in certain transactions or activities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient earnings to enable us to satisfy the financial covenants included in our debt instruments. Our failure to comply with these covenants, if not waived, would cause a default under the senior credit facilities and could result in principal under our $2.05 billion of asset-backed conduit facilities being required to be repaid from a portion of vehicle disposition proceeds and lease payments we make to our vehicle program subsidiaries. If such a failure were to occur, there can be no assurance that we would be able to refinance or obtain a replacement for such facilities and in certain circumstances such failure could also give rise to a default under the instruments that govern our other indebtedness.

We can be adversely impacted by disruptions in the credit and asset-backed securities markets, which could lead to increases in interest rates and could disrupt our ability to obtain financing for our operations, which require substantial capital.

We rely upon financing for our operations, particularly asset-backed financing, through asset-backed securities and the lending market, for our vehicle fleet. Our total asset-backed debt as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $4.5 billion, with available capacity of approximately $2.4 billion. Our $2.05 billion asset-backed domestic rental car conduit facility (under which $30 million was outstanding at December 31, 2010) consists of a 364-day facility which matures in October 2011 and a two-year facility which matures in October 2012, each with a maximum available amount of $1.025 billion. If the asset-backed financing market is disrupted for any reason, we may be unable to obtain refinancing for our operations at current levels, or at all, when our asset-backed rental car financings mature, and any new financing or refinancing of our existing financing could increase our borrowing costs, including due to an increase in required collateral levels. In addition, we could be subject to increased collateral requirements to the extent we request any amendment or renewal of any of our existing financing.

Ambac Assurance Corporation and MBIA Insurance Corporation provide financial guaranties for approximately $900 million and $300 million, respectively, of our approximately $4.0 billion of domestic term asset-backed car rental financing outstanding at December 31, 2010. The debt ratings of these financial guaranty firms have been downgraded significantly from the time in which the guarantees were entered into, and the firms have substantially curtailed their issuance of new guaranties. Therefore we are unlikely to be able to offer similar financial guaranties in connection with any refinancing we pursue for our term asset-backed financings. Assured Guaranty Corp. is also the provider of a financial guaranty for $250 million of our term asset-backed car rental financing. Certain insolvency events in respect of the financial guarantors of our outstanding term asset-backed financings would result in principal of the related financing being required to be repaid sooner than anticipated from a portion of the proceeds of ordinary course vehicle disposition and lease payments we make to our vehicle program subsidiaries. If such financings were not so repaid, these financial guarantor insolvency events could also result in the noteholders of the series of asset-backed notes guaranteed by the insolvent financial guarantor instructing the trustee to direct the return of program vehicles and/or the sale of non-program vehicles to generate proceeds sufficient to repay such series of notes. If such a financial guarantor insolvency event were to occur, there can be no assurance that we would be able to replace the relevant financings on reasonable terms or at all.

An increase in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing our debt and could reduce our profitability.

A portion of our borrowings, primarily our vehicle-backed borrowings, bear interest at variable rates and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest rates increase, whether because of an increase in market interest rates or an increase in our own cost of borrowing, our debt service obligations for our variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount of borrowings remained the same, and our results of operations could be adversely affected. As of December 31, 2010, our total outstanding debt of approximately $7.0 billion included

unhedged interest rate sensitive debt of approximately $754 million. During our seasonal borrowing peak in 2010, outstanding unhedged interest rate sensitive debt totaled approximately $2.5 billion.

Restrictive covenants in agreements and instruments governing our debt may adversely affect our ability to operate our business.

The terms of certain of our indebtedness, including the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes and the agreement governing our senior credit facilities contain, and our future debt instruments may contain, various provisions that limit our ability to, among other things:

•

incur additional debt;

•

provide guarantees in respect of obligations of other persons;

•

issue redeemable stock and preferred stock;

•

pay dividends or distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock;

•

prepay, redeem or repurchase debt;

•

make loans, investments and capital expenditures;

•

enter into transactions with affiliates;

•

create or incur liens;

•

make distributions from our subsidiaries;

•

sell assets and capital stock of our subsidiaries;

•

make acquisitions; and

•

consolidate or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of our assets to, another person.

Risks related to the Separation

We are relying on Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide and Travelport to fulfill their obligations under the Separation Agreement and other agreements.

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement and related agreements (including a tax sharing agreement, the “Tax Sharing Agreement”), Realogy and Wyndham Worldwide are responsible for 62.5% and 37.5%, respectively, of certain contingent and other of our corporate liabilities including those relating to unresolved tax and legal matters as well as 100% of certain liabilities that relate to their respective businesses (the “Assumed Obligations”). More specifically, Realogy and Wyndham Worldwide have generally assumed and are responsible for the payment of their specified percentage of (i) all taxes imposed on us and certain of our subsidiaries and (ii) certain of our contingent and other corporate liabilities and/or those of our subsidiaries to the extent incurred prior to August 23, 2006. If either Realogy or Wyndham were to default in its payment, when due, of any such Assumed Obligations, each non-defaulting party, including us, would be required to pay an equal portion of the defaulted amounts, and any such default may adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Realogy was acquired by an affiliate of Apollo Management VI, L.P. following the Separation. While the acquisition did not affect Realogy’s obligation to satisfy its specified percentage of its Assumed Obligations, as a

result of the acquisition, Realogy has greater debt obligations and its ability to satisfy its portion of such Assumed Obligations may be adversely impacted. In accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement, Realogy posted a letter of credit for the benefit of the Company to cover its estimated share of the Assumed Obligations. In conjunction with such Assumed Obligations, we had recorded receivables from Realogy of approximately $100 million as of December 31, 2010; the amount of the letter of credit posted by Realogy is designed to approximate the amount of such receivables and is subject to adjustment from time to time. There can be no assurance that such letter of credit will be sufficient or effective to cover Realogy’s actual obligations if and when they arise. In addition, the Separation Agreement effectively provides Realogy with the right to control the process for resolving disputes related to many of the Assumed Obligations.

Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide and/or Travelport (the “separated companies”) are required to indemnify us in respect of certain liabilities that related to their respective businesses, including certain effective guarantees that result from either us or one of our subsidiaries remaining a named lessee on real estate leases pertaining to properties occupied by the separated companies as well as certain litigation that pertains to the businesses of such companies in which we are also named. Any failure by the separated companies to pay any of their assumed liabilities when due or to indemnify us when required may adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Risks related to our common stock

The market price of our shares may fluctuate widely.

We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock will trade. The market price of our common stock experienced substantial volatility in the past and may fluctuate widely, depending upon many factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:

•

our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry, including our suppliers;

•

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

•

changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

•

announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, dispositions, strategies, marketing affiliations, projections, fleet costs, pricing actions or other competitive actions;

•

changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;

•

changes in investors’ and analysts’ perceptions of our industry, business or related industries;

•

the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;

•

overall market fluctuations; and

•

general economic conditions and conditions in the credit markets.

Shareholders’ percentage ownership may be diluted in the future.

Shareholders’ percentage ownership may be diluted in the future because of equity issuances, conversion of our convertible senior notes due 2014, exercise of the warrants we issued in 2009 or equity awards that we granted or will grant to our directors, officers and employees. Holders of our convertible senior notes may convert their notes into up to 21.2 million shares of our common stock. In 2010, we granted approximately 160,000 stock options and approximately 2.0 million restricted stock units, and in January 2011, we granted approximately 975,000 restricted stock units. We also expect to grant restricted stock units, stock options and/or other types of equity awards in the future.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, and of Delaware law may prevent or delay an acquisition of our Company, which could decrease the trading price of our common stock.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated by-laws and Delaware law contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids by making such practices or bids unacceptably expensive to the prospective acquirer and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our Board of Directors rather than to attempt a hostile takeover. These provisions include, among others:

•

elimination of the right of our stockholders to act by written consent;

•

rules regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at stockholder meetings;

•

the right of our Board to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval; and

•

limitations on the right of stockholders to remove directors.

Delaware law also imposes some restrictions on mergers and other business combinations between us and any holder of 15% or more of our outstanding common stock.

We believe these provisions protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirors to negotiate with our Board and by providing our Board with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make our Company immune from takeovers. However, these provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our Board determines is not in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders.

Conversion of our convertible senior notes due 2014, and the note hedge and warrant transactions entered into in connection with the issuance of the notes, may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

Any of the following transactions and activities could adversely affect the value of our common stock in connection with our issuance of $345 million of 3.5% convertible senior notes due 2014 and the note hedge and warrant transactions entered into in connection with such issuance:

•

the conversion of some or all of our convertible senior notes, any sales by noteholders in the public market of our common stock issued upon such conversion and any selling of our common stock (including short selling) due to the existence of the notes;

•

the exercise of some or all of the warrants, any sales by warrantholders in the public market of our common stock issued upon such exercise of the warrants and any selling of our common stock (including short selling) due to the existence of the warrants; and

•

the entry into, or the modification or the unwinding of, various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock by the counterparties in connection with their obligations under the note hedge and warrant transactions.

PROPERTIES

Our principal executive offices are located at leased offices at 6 Sylvan Way, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054 pursuant to a lease expiring in 2023. Supplemental office space that we previously occupied at 10 Sylvan Way and 3 Century Drive in Parsippany, New Jersey is currently vacant, and the related leases will expire or may be terminated in 2011 and 2013, respectively. We also own a facility in Virginia Beach, Virginia, which serves as a satellite administrative facility for our car and truck rental operations. Office space is also leased in Greenwood Village, Colorado and Tulsa, Oklahoma pursuant to leases expiring in 2015 and 2022, respectively. These locations primarily provide operational services for both brands, including contact center operations. In addition, there are approximately seven other leased office locations in the United States used for administrative activities, regional sales and operations activities.

We lease or have vehicle rental concessions for both the Avis and Budget brands at locations throughout the world. Avis operates approximately 950 locations in the United States and approximately 300 locations outside the United States. Of those locations, approximately 225 in the United States and approximately 100 outside the United States are at airports. Budget operates at approximately 600 locations in the United States of which approximately 180 are at airports. Budget also operates at approximately 150 locations outside the United States of which approximately 60 are at airports. Typically, an airport receives a percentage of vehicle rental revenue, with a guaranteed minimum. Because there is a limit to the number of vehicle rental locations in an airport, vehicle rental companies frequently bid for the available locations, usually on the basis of the size of the guaranteed minimums. We believe that our properties are sufficient to meet our present needs and we do not anticipate any difficulty in securing additional space, as needed, on acceptable terms.

ITEM 3.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Vehicle Rental Litigation

We, along with our subsidiaries, are involved from time to time in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including the cases described below.

On November 14, 2007, two California residents filed a putative class action lawsuit, captioned Michael Shames et al. v. The Hertz Corp. et al., No. 07 CV 2174H (S.D. Cal.), against the Company, six other rental car companies, the California Travel and Tourism Commission (the “CTTC”) and the CTTC’s Executive Director, alleging that the defendants violated federal antitrust law and California’s Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law by allegedly agreeing to pass on airport concession fees and a state tourism commission assessment to passenger car renters in California. The plaintiffs are seeking treble damages, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees and costs. We filed a motion to dismiss the Shames suit, and on April 8, 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California granted the motions to dismiss the putative class action lawsuit, on the ground that plaintiffs failed to state claims for which relief could be granted. An amended complaint was filed in May 2008 against the Company and six other rental car companies, as well as the CTTC, and contained claims that the defendants had violated federal antitrust law and California’s Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law by allegedly agreeing to pass on airport concession fees and a state tourism commission assessment to passenger car renters in California. In July 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California granted the CTTC’s motion to dismiss all claims asserted against it, granted our motions to dismiss with respect to the state law claims and denied our motion to dismiss with respect to the federal antitrust claim. We are currently undergoing discovery. In June 2010 the Ninth Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the claims against the CTTC. In August 2010, the Company and the other rental car companies named in the suit filed a motion to dismiss in district court. In November 2010, the Ninth Circuit reversed its prior dismissal of all claims against the CTTC, and replaced its June 2010 opinion with a superseding opinion reversing the district court’s dismissal of claims against the CTTC, making the CTTC again a party to the district court proceedings. The Company has denied the allegations and intends to continue to defend the case.

In December 2007, class action lawsuits, now known as In re Tourism Assessment Fee Litigation were filed against the Company, 12 other rental car companies, the CTTC and California’s Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing. This action challenged the tourism commission assessment fees imposed on certain renters in California as of January 1, 2007. The action sought declaratory and injunctive relief, a refund of all California tourism commission assessment fees collected by the rental car defendants, attorneys’ fees and costs, and unspecified damages. The defendants moved to dismiss and transfer the action to the Southern District of California. In September 2008, the transfer motion was granted and the action was subsequently transferred to the Southern District of California. In February 2009, the court granted defendants’ motions to dismiss plaintiffs’ federal law claims, declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiffs’ state law claims, and dismissed plaintiffs’ amended complaint with prejudice. In March 2009, the plaintiffs filed a motion seeking leave to file a motion for relief from the judgment and/or for leave to file a second amended complaint; the court denied such motion; and plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit from the final judgment and from the denial of their motion. The plaintiffs’ appeal was denied in August 2010. The plaintiffs have not moved for reconsideration of the opinion.

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to wage and hour claims, including the following:

In May 2008, a civil collective action complaint currently captioned Matt Ravenell v. Avis Budget Group, Inc., Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC and Avis Rent A Car System, LLC, No. 08 CV 02113 (E.D.N.Y.) was filed against us alleging that the Company violated the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New York Labor Law by misclassifying shift managers as employees exempt from overtime. The plaintiffs, former Avis shift managers, seek to recover, on behalf of themselves and all other individuals who are similarly situated, alleged unpaid overtime compensation, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. In addition, two of the named plaintiffs assert individual claims of retaliation against the Company. Conditional class certification with respect to Plaintiff’s Fair Labor Standards Act claims was granted to plaintiffs in July 2010. The parties are currently conducting discovery on the merits.

A civil collective action complaint, similar to the Ravenell matter, was also filed against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida in September 2010, alleging misclassification of shift managers as exempt from overtime in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. A civil collective action complaint was also filed against us in the District of New Jersey in July 2009, alleging misclassification of airport managers as exempt from overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The New Jersey plaintiff’s motion for conditional class certification and the Company’s motion for summary judgment are currently pending in the district court. Two putative class actions are also pending against us in California alleging violations of state law regarding meal breaks, among other claims. Both California cases are currently subject to a court-ordered stay pending a decision by the California Supreme Court in an existing case not involving the Company. We intend to vigorously defend each of these suits.

Corporate Litigation

Avis Budget Legal Proceedings

In October 2009, a judgment was entered against us for damages related to breach of contract in the amount of $16 million in Alaska Rent A Car, Inc. v. Cendant Corp., et al. in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. The lawsuit, which was filed in 2003 by our licensee, Alaska Rent-A-Car, involved breach of contract and other claims related to the acquisition of our Budget vehicle rental business in 2002. In addition to the judgment for damages, in June 2010 the district court also entered an order against the Company in the amount of $3.3 million, in favor of the plaintiff’s motions for pre-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees. We have filed an appeal of the judgment and the award of attorneys’ fees with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Cendant Legal Proceedings

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Realogy has assumed 62.5% and Wyndham Worldwide has assumed 37.5% of certain contingent and other corporate liabilities (and related costs and expenses), including legal

matters and related disputes, of the Company or its subsidiaries which are not primarily related to any of the respective businesses of Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide, Travelport and/or the Company’s vehicle rental operations, in each case incurred or allegedly incurred on or prior to the date of the separation of Travelport from the Company. Such litigation includes the Credentials Litigation described below.

CSI Investment et. al. v. Cendant et. al., (Case No. 1:00-CV-01422 (DAB-DFE) (S.D.N.Y.)) (the “Credentials Litigation”, an action for breach of contract and fraud arising out of Cendant’s acquisition of the Credentials business in 1998, where plaintiffs sought, among other things, payment of certain “hold back” monies, as well as a contingent payment based upon future performance. In September 2007, the Court granted summary judgment to dismiss the fraud claims and to grant plaintiffs’ motion for the hold back monies and for breach of contract, and in July 2009, the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the ruling of the district court and judgment was entered in favor of the plaintiffs in the amount of approximately $98 million, plus post-judgment interest and reasonable attorneys’ fees. As a result of payments made by Realogy and Wyndham in July 2009, the Court entered a satisfaction of judgment. In September 2009, the plaintiffs filed a motion requesting an aggregate of $33 million in attorneys’ fees and costs comprised of $6 million in hourly fees and costs, a $25 million success fee and $2 million in pre-judgment interest. Both parties filed briefs with respect to the motion and in January 2010, the Court issued a summary order referring the matter to a Magistrate for a determination of the proper amount of attorneys’ fees. In December 2010 the parties reached a settlement of the dispute concerning attorneys’ fees. Realogy and Wyndham are responsible for 62.5% and 37.5%, respectively, of the liability arising from the Credentials Litigation, and paid the settlement amounts on December 31, 2010. There was no net impact to our financial statements or cash balances as a result of the judgment or settlement.

Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide and Travelport have also assumed under the Separation Agreement certain contingent and other corporate liabilities (and related costs and expenses), which include legal proceedings where we are named as a defendant but are primarily related to each of their respective businesses.

Dividend Policy

We paid no cash dividends on our common stock in 2010 and 2009 and we do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Our ability to pay dividends to holders of our common stock is limited by the Company’s senior credit facilities, the indentures governing our senior notes and our vehicle financing programs, insofar as we may seek to pay dividends out of funds made available to Avis Budget Group by Avis Budget Car Rental and/or its subsidiaries. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our businesses, covenants associated with certain debt obligations, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

In presenting the financial data above in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. See “Critical Accounting Policies” under Item 7 included elsewhere herein for a detailed discussion of the accounting policies that we believe require subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results.

Restructuring and Other Items

During 2010, we recorded $11 million of restructuring charges related to initiatives within our Domestic Car Rental segment. In 2009 and 2008, we recorded $20 million and $28 million, respectively, of charges related to restructuring initiatives within each of our segments. In 2006, we recorded $10 million of restructuring charges related to restructuring initiatives within our Truck Rental and Domestic Car Rental segments. See Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

During 2010, we recorded $52 million of expense related to the early extinguishment of a portion of our corporate debt and associated interest rate swaps.

In 2009, we recorded an approximately $33 million ($20 million, net of tax) non-cash charge primarily for the impairment of our investment in Carey Holdings, Inc. (“Carey”), to reflect the other-than-temporary decline of the investment’s fair value below its carrying value. In 2008, we recorded a $1,262 million ($1,053 million, net of tax) non-cash charge to reflect (i) the impairment of goodwill, (ii) the impairment of the Company’s tradenames assets and (iii) the impairment of our investment in Carey. These charges reflect the decline in their fair value below their carrying value, primarily as a result of reduced market valuations for vehicle services and other companies, as well as reduced profit forecasts due to soft economic conditions and increased financing costs. In 2007, we recorded a $1,195 million ($1,073 million, net of tax) non-cash charge for the impairment of goodwill at each of our reporting units to reflect the decline in their fair value as evidenced by a decline in the market value of our common stock. See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. In 2006, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $1.3 billion within discontinued operations to reflect the difference between Travelport’s carrying value and its estimated fair value, less costs to dispose.

In 2006, we incurred separation-related costs of $574 million in connection with the spin-offs of Realogy and Wyndham and the sale of Travelport. During 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007, separation-related costs incurred were insignificant. These costs consisted primarily of legal, accounting, other professional and consulting fees, various employee expenses and for 2006, included costs associated with the retirement of corporate debt.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, includes the after tax results of the following disposed businesses for all periods presented (through their dates of disposition): (i) Travelport, which we sold in August 2006, and (ii) Realogy and Wyndham, which were spun-off on July 31, 2006. Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, also includes a tax benefit realized as a result of certain elections made in connection with the disposition of Travelport on income tax returns filed during 2007 and the after tax losses on the sale of Travelport and the spin-offs of Realogy and Wyndham in 2006.

In 2006, we incurred $40 million of litigation and related costs primarily in connection with the 1998 discovery of accounting irregularities in the former business units of CUC International, Inc. In 2010, 2009, and 2008 and 2007, these costs were immaterial.

In 2006, we recorded a $103 million ($64 million, net of tax) non-cash charge to reflect the cumulative effect of accounting changes related to (i) real estate time-share transactions at our former Hospitality Services and Timeshare Resorts segment and (ii) stock-based compensation awards.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts in tables are in millions and those relating to our results of operations are presented before taxes.

We operate two of the most recognized brands in the global vehicle rental industry through Avis Rent A Car System, LLC and Budget Rent A Car System, Inc. We provide car and truck rentals and ancillary services to businesses and consumers in the United States and internationally.

We operate in the following business segments:

•

Domestic Car Rental—provides car rentals and ancillary products and services in the United States.

•

International Car Rental—provides vehicle rentals and ancillary products and services primarily in Argentina, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

•

Truck Rental—provides truck rentals and related services to consumers and commercial users in the United States.

Our revenues are derived principally from car and truck rentals in our Company-owned operations and include (i) time and mileage (“T&M”) fees charged to our customers for vehicle rentals, (ii) reimbursement from our customers for certain operating expenses we incur, including gasoline and vehicle licensing fees, as well as airport concession fees, which we pay in exchange for the right to operate at airports and other locations, and (iii) sales of loss damage waivers and insurance and rentals of navigation units and other items in conjunction with vehicle rentals. We also earn royalty revenue from certain of our licensees in the United States and internationally in conjunction with their vehicle rental transactions.

Car rental volumes are closely associated with the travel industry, particularly airline passenger volumes, or enplanements. Because we operate primarily in the United States and generate a significant portion of our revenue from our on-airport operations, we expect that our ability to generate revenue growth will be somewhat dependent on increases in domestic enplanements. Our ability to achieve profit margins consistent with prior periods remains dependent on our ability to successfully manage our costs and our revenues per vehicle. Our vehicle rental operations are seasonal. Historically, the third quarter of the year has been our strongest quarter due to the increased level of leisure travel and household moving activity. Any occurrence that disrupts rental activity during the third quarter could have a disproportionate adverse effect on our results of operations. We have a partially variable cost structure and routinely adjust the size and, therefore, the cost of our rental fleet in response to fluctuations in demand. However, certain expenses, such as rent, are fixed and cannot be reduced in response to seasonal fluctuations in our operations.

We believe that the following factors, among others, may affect and/or have impacted our financial condition and results of operations:

•

Domestic enplanements, which for 2010 and 2009 were lower than 2008 levels, but are expected to increase in 2011 compared to 2010;

•

Fleet, pricing, marketing and strategic decisions made by us and by our competitors;

•

Changes in per-unit car fleet costs and in conditions in the used vehicle marketplace;

•

Changes in the financial condition of vehicle manufacturers;

•

Changes in borrowing costs and in market willingness to purchase corporate and vehicle-related debt;

•

Our potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (“Dollar Thrifty”);

•

Changes in foreign exchange rates; and

•

Demand for truck rentals.

We believe that the economic recovery in the U.S. and worldwide economies during 2010 favorably impacted demand for vehicle rental services, but that such demand nonetheless remained below levels seen prior to the 2008-09 recession. Historically, our results of operations have declined during periods of general economic weakness. If economic conditions in the United States were to weaken, our results of operations could be materially and adversely impacted in 2011 and beyond. In our cost-reduction initiatives and restructuring activities, we are driving process improvements to reduce costs, enhance service to our customers and improve our operations. We are pursuing an acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, which, if completed, could have a material impact on our operations, financial condition and liquidity. There can be no assurances as to the timing to accomplish such acquisition or the terms thereof and the ability and timing to obtain required regulatory approval and financing (and any conditions thereto). Due to uncertainties related to our business, there can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy the covenants contained in our senior credit facilities and our asset-backed car rental conduit facilities. Failure to comply with such covenants could significantly impact our liquidity if we were unable to obtain an amendment or waiver or were unable to refinance or replace such facilities. See “Risk Factors—Risks related to our indebtedness”. There can also be no assurance that 2010 results will be indicative of results we will achieve in 2011 or other future periods.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Discussed below are our consolidated results of operations and the results of operations for each of our reportable segments.

We measure performance using the following key operating statistics: (i) rental days, which represents the total number of days (or portion thereof) a vehicle was rented, and (ii) T&M revenue per rental day, which represents the average daily revenue we earned from rental and mileage fees charged to our customers. Our car rental operating statistics (rental days and T&M revenue per rental day) are all calculated based on the actual rental of the vehicle during a 24-hour period. We believe that this methodology, while conservative, provides our management with the most relevant statistics in order to manage the business. Our calculation may not be comparable to other companies’ calculation of similarly-titled statistics.

The reportable segments presented below represent our operating segments for which separate financial information is available and is utilized on a regular basis by our chief operating decision maker to assess performance and allocate resources. In identifying our reportable segments, we also consider the nature of services provided by our operating segments. Management evaluates the operating results of each of our reportable segments based upon revenue and “Adjusted EBITDA”, which we define as income from continuing operations before non-vehicle related depreciation and amortization, any impairment charge, non-vehicle related interest and income taxes. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

Year Ended December 31, 2010 vs. Year Ended December 31, 2009

Our consolidated results of operations comprised the following:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2010		2009			Change
Net revenues	$	5,185	$	5,131		$	54
Total expenses		5,113		5,208			(95	)

Income (loss) before income taxes		72		(77	)		149
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes		18		(30	)		48

Net income (loss)	$	54	$	(47	)	$	101

During 2010, our net revenues increased $54 million (1%) principally due to a 6% increase in ancillary and other revenues, such as sales of loss damage waivers and insurance products, gasoline sales and fees charged to customers. This increase in ancillary revenue was partially offset by a 1% decrease in T&M revenue in our car rental operations, resulting primarily from a 2% decline in domestic and international car rental days partially mitigated by a 1% increase in T&M revenue per rental day. In addition, the increase in revenue reflected a $97 million favorable effect related to the translation of our international operations’ results into U.S. dollars.

Total expenses decreased $95 million (2%) principally due to (i) a $138 million (10%) decrease in vehicle depreciation and lease charges resulting from a 9% decline in car per-unit fleet costs and a 1% decline in our average car rental fleet; (ii) the absence of the $33 million in impairment charges recorded in 2009; (iii) a $20 million (1%) decrease in direct operating expenses largely resulting from the 2% decrease in car rental days, reduced staffing levels, other cost-saving actions and the absence of the $18 million charge recorded in 2009 for a litigation judgment against us related to the 2002 acquisition of our Budget vehicle rental business; and (iv) a $9 million decrease in restructuring costs. These year-over-year decreases were partially offset by (i) a $52 million expense related to the early extinguishment of a portion of our corporate debt and associated interest rate swaps; (ii) a $32 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily related to increased marketing and commission expenditures, but also including $14 million of due diligence and other costs associated with the potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty; (iii) a $17 million increase in interest expense on corporate debt; and (iv) a $10 million increase in vehicle interest. The decrease in total expenses includes an adverse impact from foreign currency exchange rates of $80 million. As a result of these items, offset by a $48 million increase in our provision for income taxes, our net income increased by $101 million during 2010 compared to 2009.

Our effective tax rate was a provision of 25.0% for 2010, which differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to a benefit relating to additional tax depreciation within the Company’s operations in Australia. For 2009, our effective tax rate was a benefit of 39.0%.

Following is a more detailed discussion of the results of each of our reportable segments:

^(a)

Includes unallocated corporate overhead and the elimination of transactions between segments. For 2010, includes $14 million of expenses related to the potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty, and for 2009, includes an $18 million charge for a litigation judgment against us related to the 2002 acquisition of our Budget vehicle rental business.

^(b)	During 2009, we recorded impairment charges of $33 million primarily related to our investment in Carey Holdings, Inc. (“Carey”).

Domestic Car Rental

Revenues decreased $74 million (2%) in 2010 compared with 2009 primarily due to decreased car rental volumes, while Adjusted EBITDA increased $117 million (108%), primarily due to reduced fleet costs and lower operating expenses.

The year-over-year change in revenue was comprised of a $107 million (3%) decrease in T&M revenue and a $33 million (4%) increase in ancillary and other revenues. The decrease in T&M revenue was principally the result of a 2% decrease in rental days, entirely in the first half of the year, and a 1% decrease in T&M revenue per day. The increase in ancillary revenue was primarily due to (i) a $15 million increase in sales of loss damage waivers, insurance products and emergency roadside services, and fees charged to customers, (ii) a $9 million increase in gasoline sales, which was more than offset in Adjusted EBITDA by $13 million of higher gasoline expense, and (iii) a $9 million increase in airport concession and vehicle licensing revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA benefited from $147 million (13%) of decreased fleet depreciation and lease charges, reflecting a 12% decrease in per-unit fleet costs and a 1% decrease in the average size of our domestic rental fleet. We continued to achieve significant cost savings during 2010 as a result of our cost-saving initiatives, as Adjusted EBITDA also reflected a $56 million (2%) decrease in operating expenses, including (i) a $57 million decrease in expenses related to car rental volume including maintenance and damage, agency operator commissions, credit card fees, and other costs, and (ii) a $26 million decrease in employee costs, rents and other expenses related primarily to reduced staffing levels and the closure of unprofitable locations. These cost decreases were partially offset by (i) a $17 million increase in vehicle interest primarily driven by higher vehicle-backed debt balances, (ii) a $6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily for marketing expenditures, and (iii) a $7 million increase in insurance related costs.

International Car Rental

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $114 million (14%) and $29 million (23%), respectively, in 2010 compared with 2009, primarily due to the impact of foreign currency exchange movements, increased ancillary revenues and lower fleet costs on a constant-currency basis.

The revenue increase was comprised of a $70 million (13%) increase in T&M revenue and a $44 million (17%) increase in ancillary and other revenues. The total increase in revenue includes a $97 million increase related to foreign currency exchange rates, impacting T&M revenue by $66 million and ancillary and other revenues by $31 million, and was largely offset in Adjusted EBITDA by the impact of exchange-rate movements on expenses of $80 million. The increase in T&M revenue was principally driven by a 13% increase in T&M revenue per rental day (1% excluding exchange-rate effects), while rental days remained essentially unchanged.

Adjusted EBITDA reflected a $67 million (13%) increase in operating expenses and an $18 million (10%) increase in fleet depreciation and lease charges, primarily due to foreign-exchange effects. Our per-unit fleet costs decreased 1% excluding the impact of currency exchange rates, and the average size of our international rental fleet remained essentially unchanged.

Truck Rental

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $13 million (4%) and $21 million, respectively, in 2010 compared with 2009.

T&M revenue increased $13 million as a result of a 5% increase in rental days, primarily from increased commercial volume, while T&M revenue per day remained unchanged. Adjusted EBITDA benefited from the increase in revenue and a $15 million (17%) decline in fleet depreciation, interest and lease charges, reflecting a 10% decline in per-unit fleet costs and an 8% decline in our average truck rental fleet.

Corporate and Other

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1 million and $12 million, in 2010 compared with 2009.

Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily due to the absence of expenses recorded in 2009 for (i) an $18 million charge related to a litigation judgment against us related to the 2002 acquisition of our Budget vehicle rental business and (ii) the Company’s share of Carey’s 2009 operating results. Adjusted EBITDA in 2010 reflected $14 million of expenses associated with the potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 vs. Year Ended December 31, 2008

Our consolidated results of operations comprised the following:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2009			2008			Change
Net revenues	$	5,131		$	5,984		$	(853	)
Total expenses		5,208			7,327			(2,119	)

Loss before income taxes		(77	)		(1,343	)		1,266
Benefit from income taxes		(30	)		(219	)		189

Net loss	$	(47	)	$	(1,124	)	$	1,077

In 2009, our net revenues decreased $853 million (14%) principally due to (i) a 15% decrease in T&M revenue in our car rental operations, resulting primarily from a 20% decrease in domestic and international car rental days, partially offset by a 6% increase in T&M revenue per rental day, and (ii) a 14% decrease in ancillary revenues,

also resulting from decreased car rental days. In addition, the total revenue decrease includes a negative impact of $58 million related to the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our international operations’ results into U.S. dollars.

Total expenses decreased $2,119 million (29%) principally due to (i) a $1,229 million (97%) decrease in impairment charges, (ii) a $511 million (16%) decrease in direct operating expenses largely resulting from the 20% decrease in car rental days, reduced staffing levels and other cost-saving actions, (iii) $272 million (16%) lower vehicle depreciation and lease charges resulting from a 19% decline in our average car rental fleet, partially offset by a 3% increase in per-unit fleet costs, and (iv) a $104 million (16%) decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses mainly related to reduced marketing and commission costs in light of lower rental volumes. The decrease in total expenses includes a positive impact from foreign currency exchange rates of $42 million and also reflects numerous actions taken in late 2008 and throughout 2009 to reduce both volume-related and non-volume-related expenses. As a result of our expense reductions, partially offset by a $189 million decrease in our benefit from income taxes, net loss decreased $1,077 million during 2009 compared to 2008.

Our effective tax rate was a benefit of 39.0% and 16.3% for 2009 and 2008, respectively. The tax benefit for 2009 included a foreign investment allowance relating to additional tax depreciation in Australia. The unusually low rate for 2008 was primarily due to the non-deductible portion of the impairment charges we incurred.

Following is a more detailed discussion of the results of each of our reportable segments:


	Revenues							Adjusted EBITDA

^(b)

In 2009, we recorded impairment charges of $33 million primarily related to our investment in Carey, recorded in Corporate and Other. In 2008, we recorded a charge of $1,262 million for the impairment of goodwill, our tradenames asset and our investment in Carey. Domestic Car Rental recorded $882 million of the charge, International Car Rental recorded $275 million, Truck Rental recorded $87 million and Corporate and Other recorded $18 million.

Domestic Car Rental

Revenues decreased $728 million (16%) in 2009 compared with 2008 primarily due to decreased demand for car rental services, while Adjusted EBITDA increased $96 million due to our actions to significantly reduce costs and increase prices.

The revenue decrease of $728 million was comprised of a $563 million (15%) decrease in T&M revenue and a $165 million (16%) decrease in ancillary revenues. The decrease in T&M revenue was principally the result of a 21% decrease in rental days, partially offset by a 7% year-over-year increase in T&M revenue per rental day.

The $165 million decrease in ancillary revenues was also primarily due to the decline in rental days and reflected (i) an $80 million decrease in gasoline sales, which was more than offset in Adjusted EBITDA by $137 million of decreased gasoline expense, (ii) a $44 million decrease in airport concession and vehicle licensing revenues, which was partially offset by $32 million lower airport concession and vehicle licensing fees remitted to airport and other regulatory authorities, and (iii) a $41 million decrease in counter sales of insurance, GPS rentals and other items (although revenues per transaction increased year-over-year).

We aggressively reduced costs during 2009 in response to the sharp decline in demand. Adjusted EBITDA reflected a $425 million (16%) decrease in operating expenses, including (i) a $218 million decrease in maintenance and damage, agency operator commissions, shuttling, credit card fees, and other costs amid lower rental volumes, (ii) a $90 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses related to decreases in marketing and commission expenditures, most of which are volume-related, and other items due primarily to management’s actions to reduce expenditures, (iii) an $80 million decrease in employee costs, rents and other expenses related primarily to reduced staffing levels and the closure of unprofitable locations, (iv) a $15 million decrease in insurance related costs, primarily due to the 21% decrease in rental days, (v) a $12 million decrease in vehicle interest related to lower fleet levels, and (vi) a $7 million decrease in restructuring costs. Adjusted EBITDA also benefited from $231 million (16%) of decreased fleet depreciation and lease charges reflecting a 20% decrease in the average size of our domestic rental fleet and a 5% increase in per-unit fleet costs.

International Car Rental

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $96 million (11%) and $15 million (11%), respectively, in 2009 compared with 2008, primarily due to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements and lower demand for car rentals.

The revenue decrease of $96 million was comprised of a $72 million (12%) decrease in T&M revenue and a $24 million (9%) decrease in ancillary revenues. The total decline in revenue includes a $58 million decrease related to foreign currency exchange rates, impacting T&M revenue by $41 million and ancillary revenues by $17 million, and was largely offset in Adjusted EBITDA by the opposite impact of foreign exchange on expenses of $42 million. The decrease in T&M revenue was principally driven by (i) a 2% decrease in T&M revenue per rental day, all of which was due to the 7% negative impact of movements in foreign currency exchange rates, and (ii) a 9% decrease in rental days. The $25 million decrease in ancillary revenues was primarily due to the decline in rental days and reflected (i) a $15 million decrease in counter sales of insurance, GPS rentals and other items, and (ii) a $9 million decrease in gasoline sales, which was completely offset in Adjusted EBITDA by lower gasoline costs.

Adjusted EBITDA reflects a $42 million (10%) decrease in operating expenses, including (i) a $29 million decrease in agency operator commissions, maintenance and damage, vehicle licensing, credit card fees and other costs amid lower rental volumes, (ii) a $7 million decrease in vehicle interest related to lower fleet levels, (iii) a $6 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses related primarily to decreased marketing and commission expenditures, and (iv) a $1 million decrease in restructuring costs year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA also benefited from a $27 million decrease in fleet depreciation and lease charges, reflecting a 10% reduction in the average size of our international rental fleet and a 3% decrease in per-unit fleet costs.

Truck Rental

Revenues decreased $28 million (7%) while Adjusted EBITDA increased $17 million in 2009 compared with 2008.

The revenue decrease was primarily due to a decline of $23 million (8%) in T&M revenue and a $5 million (6%) decrease in ancillary revenues. The decrease in T&M revenue was principally driven by a 7% decrease in rental days and a 1% decrease in T&M revenue per rental day in 2009 compared with 2008. The unfavorable effect of decreased revenue on Adjusted EBITDA was offset by (i) a decrease of $24 million (8%) in operating

expenses primarily due to lower volume-related expenses and reduced employee costs related to lower staffing levels and (ii) $21 million (19%) less fleet depreciation, interest and lease charges, reflecting lower per-unit fleet costs and a 3% decrease in the average size of our truck rental fleet.

Corporate and Other

Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA declined $1 million and $29 million, respectively, in 2009 compared with 2008.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to (i) an $18 million charge recorded during third quarter 2009 related to a judgment against us related to the 2002 acquisition of our Budget vehicle rental business and (ii) an $11 million loss representing the Company’s share of Carey’s 2009 operating results.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We present separately the financial data of our vehicle programs. These programs are distinct from our other activities as the assets under vehicle programs are generally funded through the issuance of debt that is collateralized by such assets. The income generated by these assets is used, in part, to repay the principal and interest associated with the debt. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the generation or acquisition of such assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of our vehicle programs. We believe it is appropriate to segregate the financial data of our vehicle programs because, ultimately, the source of repayment of such debt is the realization of such assets.

FINANCIAL CONDITION


	As of December 31,
	2010		2009		Change
Total assets exclusive of assets under vehicle programs	$	3,462	$	3,571	$	(109	)
Total liabilities exclusive of liabilities under vehicle programs		3,962		4,033		(71	)
Assets under vehicle programs		6,865		6,522		343
Liabilities under vehicle programs		5,955		5,838		117
Stockholders’ equity		410		222		188

Total assets exclusive of assets under vehicle programs decreased $109 million principally due to a $569 million decrease in other current assets primarily related to a $608 million reduction in receivables due from Realogy and Wyndham primarily related to the conclusion of the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) audit with respect to its examination of the Company’s taxable years 2003 through 2006, the year of the Cendant Separation, for which we were entitled to indemnification by Realogy and Wyndham. The decrease was partially offset by a $429 million increase in cash and cash equivalents (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Cash Flows”) and a $25 million increase in accounts receivable.

Total liabilities exclusive of liabilities under vehicle programs decreased $71 million primarily due to a $507 million reduction in tax liabilities principally related to the conclusion of the IRS audit, offset by a $371 million increase in corporate debt (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Debt and Financing Arrangements” for a detailed account of the change in our corporate debt) and a $58 million increase in accounts payable.

Assets under vehicle programs increased $343 million mainly due to a $455 million increase in our net vehicles, related primarily to an increase in our domestic car rental fleet, and a $62 million increase in our investment in Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC due to mark-to-market gains on derivatives, offset by a $153 million decrease in our program cash mainly due to the repayment of certain term notes reaching maturity during the year.

Liabilities under vehicle programs increased $117 million reflecting additional borrowing in support of the increase in our domestic vehicle rental fleet. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Debt and Financing Arrangements” for a detailed account of the change in our debt related to vehicle programs.

Stockholders’ equity increased $188 million primarily due to net income of $54 million for 2010 and a $129 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income primarily resulting from (i) a $71 million increase in currency translation, (ii) $36 million of net unrealized gains on our cash flow hedges, and (iii) the reclassification of $24 million of unrealized losses on our interest rate swaps to earnings, primarily in connection with the extinguishment of a portion of our floating rate term loan in 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and our ability to generate cash through operations and financing activities, as well as available funding arrangements and committed credit facilities, each of which is discussed below.

During 2010, we issued approximately $1.1 billion in senior notes, using the proceeds to partially repay and amend the terms of our floating rate term loan, redeem some of our earlier maturing senior notes and have cash available for use toward our potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty or to redeem additional corporate indebtedness.

Cash Flows

Year Ended December 31, 2010 vs. Year Ended December 31, 2009

At December 31, 2010, we had $911 million of cash on hand, an increase of $429 million from $482 million at December 31, 2009. The following table summarizes such increase:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			Change
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	1,640		$	1,491		$	149
Investing activities		(1,603	)		166			(1,769	)
Financing activities		380			(1,465	)		1,845
Effects of exchange rate changes		12			32			(20	)

Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	429		$	224		$	205

During 2010, we generated $149 million more cash from operating activities compared with 2009. The change principally resulted from the reimbursement from Wyndham for the use of certain of our tax attributes in connection with the conclusion of the IRS audit and improved operating results, partially offset by the termination of interest rate swaps during 2010.

We used approximately $1.8 billion more cash in investing activities during 2010 compared with 2009. This change primarily reflects the activities of our vehicle programs, which used approximately $1.3 billion more cash to purchase vehicles and received $825 million less in proceeds from the disposition of vehicles. The use of cash in investing activities in 2010 reflects a more typical pattern for us, whereas the 2009 result reflects the effects of our reducing our fleet size in response to particularly weak economic conditions and demand for travel services. We anticipate that our non-rental vehicle capital expenditures will approximate $85-95 million in 2011.

We generated approximately $1.8 billion more cash from financing activities during 2010 compared with 2009. This change primarily reflects an approximately $1.8 billion net increase in cash provided from our vehicle programs’ financing activities due to our use of cash in financing activities in 2009 for significant debt repayment associated with reducing our fleet size in response to weak economic conditions as discussed above.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 vs. Year Ended December 31, 2008

At December 31, 2009, we had $482 million of cash on hand, an increase of $224 million from $258 million at December 31, 2008. The following table summarizes such increase:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2009			2008			Change
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	1,491		$	1,704		$	(213	)
Investing activities		166			(2,096	)		2,262
Financing activities		(1,465	)		463			(1,928	)
Effects of exchange rate changes		32			(27	)		59

Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	224		$	44		$	180

In 2009, we generated $213 million less cash from operating activities than in 2008 as a result of having a year-over-year increase in earnings before income taxes and impairment costs that was smaller than the year-over-year reduction in depreciation expense.

We used approximately $2.3 billion less cash in investing activities during 2009 compared with 2008. This change primarily reflects the activities of our vehicle programs, which (i) used approximately $1.8 billion less cash to purchase vehicles during the year as we strategically maintained a smaller car rental fleet and (ii) recorded a $422 million increase in proceeds on disposition of vehicles. Additionally, we reduced spending by $144 million related to acquisitions of vehicle rental franchises, property, plant and equipment and other items during 2009.

We generated approximately $1.9 billion less cash from financing activities during 2009 compared to 2008. This change primarily reflects an approximately $2.3 billion net decrease in cash provided under our vehicle programs’ financing activities, primarily due to reduced vehicle-backed debt borrowings offset by $311 million in net proceeds primarily from the issuance of our convertible notes, a warrant transaction and a convertible note hedge in 2009.

Debt and Financing Arrangements

At December 31, 2010, we had approximately $7.0 billion of indebtedness (including corporate indebtedness of approximately $2.5 billion and debt under vehicle programs of approximately $4.5 billion).

Corporate indebtedness consisted of:

⁽^a⁾

This floating rate term loan is part of our senior credit facilities, which also include revolving credit facilities, and are secured by pledges of all of the capital stock of our direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries and up to 66% of the capital stock of each direct foreign subsidiary, subject to certain exceptions, and liens on substantially all of our intellectual property and certain other real and personal property. In March 2010, we repaid $451 million of outstanding indebtedness under our floating rate term loan and the term loan outstanding subsequent to such repayment was amended with $52 million maturing in April 2012 and the balance maturing in April 2014. In October 2010, we repaid the $52 million outstanding balance of the floating rate term loan due 2012.

^(b⁾

As of December 31, 2010, the floating rate term loan due 2014 bears interest at the greater of three month LIBOR or 1.50% plus 425 basis points for a rate of 5.75% and the floating rate notes due 2014 bear interest at 2.79%. We use various hedging strategies, including derivative instruments, to manage a portion of the risks associated with our floating rate debt.

⁽^c⁾	In December 2010, we redeemed $175 million of our 7⁵/8% notes due 2014.

^(d⁾	The 3¹/2% convertible notes are convertible by the holders into approximately 21 million shares of our common stock.

^(e)	In March 2010, we issued our 9⁵/8% notes at 98.6% of their face value for aggregate proceeds of $444 million. Proceeds were used for the partial repayment of our floating rate term loan.

The 8¹/4% notes were issued through two separate issuances of $400 million and $200 million, in October and November 2010, respectively, and form a single issuance. Proceeds from these debt issuances were used for the repayment of $52 million of floating rate term loan and the redemption of $175 million of our 7⁵/8% notes.

The significant terms for our outstanding debt instruments, credit facilities and available funding arrangements as of December 31, 2010 can be found in Notes 14 and 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY RISK

Our primary liquidity needs include the payment of operating expenses, servicing of corporate and vehicle related debt and procurement of rental vehicles to be used in our operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating revenue, cash received upon sale of vehicles, borrowings under our vehicle-backed borrowing arrangements and our revolving credit facility, and other financing activities.

As we discussed above, as of December 31, 2010, we have cash and cash equivalents of $911 million, available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility of $797 million, and available capacity under our vehicle programs of approximately $2.4 billion. Of our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010, $349 million is held either to repay outstanding corporate indebtedness or to help fund the potential acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

Our liquidity position may be negatively affected by financial market disruptions or a downturn in the U.S. and worldwide economies, which may result in unfavorable conditions in the vehicle rental industry, in the asset-backed financing market, and in the credit markets generally. We believe these factors have affected and could affect the debt ratings assigned to us by credit rating agencies and the cost of our borrowings. Additionally, a downturn in the U.S. economy or a disruption in the credit markets could impact our liquidity due to (i) decreased demand and pricing for vehicles in the used vehicle market, (ii) increased costs associated with, and/or reduced capacity or increased collateral needs under, our financings, (iii) the adverse impact of vehicle manufacturers, including General Motors Company, Ford Motor Company, Chrysler Group LLC, Hyundai Motor America, or Kia Motors America, being unable or unwilling to honor its obligations to repurchase or guarantee the depreciation on the related program vehicles, (iv) disruption in our ability to obtain financing due to negative credit events specific to us or affecting the overall debt market, (v) the impact of an insolvency event or actual or potential default by any of the financial guaranty firms that have insured a portion of our outstanding vehicle-backed debt and (vi) the effect of any of Realogy, Wyndham or Travelport being unable or unwilling to honor its obligations under the Separation Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement. Financial guaranty firms Ambac Assurance Corporation, MBIA Insurance Corporation, and Assured Guaranty Corp. currently provide financial guaranties for approximately $900 million (expiring in 2012), $300 million (expiring in 2011) and $250 million (expiring in 2012), respectively, of our domestic term asset-backed car rental financing. Certain insolvency events by these financial guarantors would result in principal of the related financings being required to be repaid sooner than anticipated.

Our liquidity position also may be negatively affected if we are unable to remain in compliance with the financial and other covenants associated with our senior credit facilities and other borrowings. The financial covenants of our senior credit facilities include maximum leverage and minimum coverage ratio requirements. As of December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with the financial covenants in our senior credit facilities.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our principal future contractual obligations as of December 31, 2010:


	2011		2012		2013		2014		2015		Thereafter		Total

		$6,321	$	2,625	$	849	$	1,678	$	971	$	2,900	$	15,344

^(a)	Consists primarily of the Company’s approximately $1.9 billion of fixed and floating rate senior notes, $271 million floating rate term loan and $345 million of convertible senior notes.

^(b⁾	Represents debt including related party debt due to Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (see Note 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements) which was issued to support the purchase of vehicles.

^(c)	Operating lease obligations are presented net of sublease rentals to be received (see Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).

^(d⁾

Represents commitments to purchase vehicles, the majority of which are from Ford Motor Company, General Motors Company and Chrysler Group LLC. These commitments are generally subject to the vehicle manufacturers satisfying their obligations under the repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements. The purchase of such vehicles is generally financed through financings under vehicle programs in addition to cash received upon the sale of vehicles, many of which were purchased under repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs (see Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).

^(e⁾	Primarily represents income tax uncertainties, the majority of which are subject to indemnification by Realogy and Wyndham. We are unable to estimate the period in which cash payments related to these income tax uncertainties are expected to be paid.

^(f)	Primarily represents commitments under service contracts for information technology and telecommunications and marketing agreements with travel service companies.

For more information regarding guarantees and indemnifications, see Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Critical Accounting Policies

In presenting our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events and/or events that are outside of our control. If there is a significant unfavorable change to current conditions, it could result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We believe that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial statements were the most appropriate at that time. Presented below are those accounting policies that we believe require subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. However, our businesses operate in environments where we are paid a fee for a service performed, and therefore the results of the majority of our recurring operations are recorded in our financial statements using accounting policies that are not particularly subjective, nor complex.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets. We have reviewed the carrying value of our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. In performing this review, we are required to make an assessment of fair value for our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. When determining fair value, we utilize various consistent assumptions, including the fair market trading price of our common stock and management’s projections of future cash flows. A change in these underlying assumptions will cause a change in the results of the tests and, as such, could cause the fair value to be less than the respective carrying amount. In such event, we would then be required to record a charge, which would impact earnings. We review the carrying value of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.

Our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are allocated among three reporting units. During 2010 and 2009, there was no impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets. In 2008, a $1,244 million charge was recorded to reflect the impairment of goodwill and the impairment of our tradenames assets. These charges reflect the decline in their fair value below their carrying value, primarily as a result of reduced market valuations for vehicle services and other companies, as well as reduced profit forecasts due to soft economic conditions and increased financing costs. Domestic Car Rental operations recorded $882 million and International Car Rental recorded $275 million, for goodwill and tradename impairment, and Truck Rental recorded $87 million for goodwill impairment.

Vehicles. We present vehicles at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We record the initial cost of the vehicle net of incentives and allowances from manufactures. We acquire our rental vehicles either through repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs with certain automobile manufacturers or outside of such programs. For rental vehicles purchased under such programs, we depreciate the vehicles such that the net book value on the date of sale or return to the manufacturers is intended to equal the contractual guaranteed residual values. For vehicles acquired outside of manufacturer repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs, we depreciate based on the vehicles’ estimated residual market values and their expected dates of disposition. See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Taxes. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes. Currently we do not record valuation allowances on the majority of our tax loss carryforwards as there are adequate deferred tax liabilities that could be realized within the carryforward period.

We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required to determine our worldwide provision for income taxes and to record the related assets and liabilities. In the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement entered into in connection with the Separation and the Separation Agreement, we are entitled to indemnification for non-Avis Budget Car Rental tax contingencies for taxable periods prior to and including the Separation.

The rules governing taxation are complex and subject to varying interpretations. Therefore, our tax accruals reflect a series of complex judgments about future events and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. Although we believe the estimates and assumptions supporting our tax accruals are reasonable, the potential result of an audit or litigation related to tax could include a range of outcomes, and could result in tax liabilities for the Company that are materially different than those reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Notes 2 and 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding income taxes.

Financial Instruments. We estimate fair values for each of our financial instruments, including derivative instruments. Most of these financial instruments are not publicly traded on an organized exchange. In the absence of quoted market prices, we must develop an estimate of fair value using dealer quotes, present value cash flow models, option pricing models or other valuation methods, as appropriate. The use of these fair value techniques involves significant judgments and assumptions, including estimates of future interest rate levels based on interest rate yield curves, credit spreads of the Company and counterparties, volatility factors, and an estimation of the timing of future cash flows. The use of different assumptions may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts recorded in the financial statements, which are disclosed in Note 20 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, hedge accounting requires that, at the beginning of each hedge period, we justify an expectation that the relationship between the changes in fair value of derivatives designated as hedges compared to changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged items will be highly effective. This effectiveness assessment, which is performed at least quarterly, involves an estimation of changes in fair value resulting from

changes in interest rates, as well as the probability of the occurrence of transactions for cash flow hedges. The use of different assumptions and changing market conditions may impact the results of the effectiveness assessment and ultimately the timing of when changes in derivative fair values and the underlying hedged items are recorded in earnings. See “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” for a discussion of the effect of hypothetical changes to these assumptions.

Public Liability, Property Damage and Other Insurance Liabilities. Insurance liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets include supplemental liability insurance, personal effects protection insurance, public liability, property damage and personal accident insurance claims for which we are self-insured. We estimate the required liability of such claims on an undiscounted basis utilizing an actuarial method that is based upon various assumptions which include, but are not limited to, our historical loss experience and projected loss development factors. The required liability is also subject to adjustment in the future based upon changes in claims experience, including changes in the number of incidents and changes in the ultimate cost per incident.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

During 2010, we adopted the following standards as a result of the issuance of new accounting pronouncements:

•

ASU No. 2009-16, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”

•

ASU No. 2009-17, “Accounting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities”

•

ASU No. 2010-09, “Subsequent Events – Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”

•

ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, except for certain disclosure requirements that were adopted on January 1, 2011, as required

We will adopt the following recently issued accounting pronouncements as required:

•

ASU No. 2010-28, “When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”

•

ASU No. 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations”

For detailed information regarding these pronouncements and the impact thereof on our business, see Notes 1 and 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and gasoline prices. We manage our exposure to market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments, particularly swap contracts, futures and options contracts, to manage and reduce the interest rate risk related to our debt; foreign currency forwards to manage and reduce foreign currency exchange rate risk; and derivative commodity instruments to manage and reduce the risk of changing unleaded gasoline prices.

We are exclusively an end user of these instruments. We do not engage in trading, market-making or other speculative activities in the derivatives markets. We manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk related to our use of derivatives through specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties, and procedures to monitor concentrations of credit risk. Our counterparties are substantial investment and commercial banks with significant experience providing such derivative instruments.

Our total market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors including the volatility present within the markets and the liquidity of the markets. There are certain limitations inherent in the sensitivity analyses presented. These “shock tests” are constrained by several factors, including the necessity to conduct the analysis based on a single

point in time and the inability to include the complex market reactions that normally would arise from the market shifts modeled. For additional information regarding our long term borrowings and financial instruments, see Notes 14, 15 and 20 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

We have foreign currency rate exposure to exchange rate fluctuations worldwide and particularly with respect to the Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and the New Zealand dollar. We use foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency swaps to manage foreign exchange risk that arises from certain intercompany transactions and from non-functional currency denominated assets and liabilities and earnings denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. Our foreign currency forward contracts are often not designated as hedges and therefore changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in earnings as they occur. We anticipate that such foreign currency exchange rate risk will remain a market risk exposure for the foreseeable future.

We assess our market risk based on changes in foreign currency exchange rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the potential impact on earnings, cash flows and fair values based on a hypothetical 10% appreciation or depreciation in the value of the underlying currencies being hedged, against the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2010. With all other variables held constant, a hypothetical 10% change (increase or decrease) in foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material impact on our earnings at December 31, 2010. Because unrealized gains or losses related to foreign currency forward and swap contracts are expected to be offset by corresponding gains or losses on the underlying exposures being hedged, when combined, these foreign currency contracts and the offsetting underlying commitments do not create a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Our primary interest rate exposure at December 31, 2010 was interest rate fluctuations in the United States, specifically LIBOR and commercial paper interest rates due to their impact on variable rate borrowings and other interest rate sensitive liabilities. We use interest rate swaps and caps to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We anticipate that LIBOR and commercial paper rates will remain a primary market risk exposure for the foreseeable future.

We assess our market risk based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis. Based on our interest rate derivatives as of December 31, 2010, we estimate that a 10% change in interest rates would not have a material impact on our earnings. Because gains or losses related to interest rate derivatives are expected to be offset by corresponding gains or losses on the underlying exposures being hedged, when combined, these interest rate contracts and the offsetting underlying commitments do not create a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

Commodity Risk Management

We have commodity price exposure related to fluctuations in the price of unleaded gasoline. We anticipate that such commodity risk will remain a market risk exposure for the foreseeable future. We determined that a hypothetical 10% change in the price of unleaded gasoline, would not have a material impact on our earnings at December 31, 2010.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b)

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, our management believes that, as of December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting is effective. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is included below.

(c)

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Avis Budget Group, Inc.

Parsippany, New Jersey

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Avis Budget Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 of the Company and our report dated February 24, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial statement schedule.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Avis Budget Group, Inc.

Parsippany, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Avis Budget Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts are in millions, except per share amounts)

1.	Basis of Presentation

Avis Budget Group, Inc. provides car and truck rentals and ancillary services to businesses and consumers in the United States and internationally. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and transactions of Avis Budget Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Avis Budget”), as well as entities in which Avis Budget directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest (collectively, the “Company”).

The Company operates in the following business segments:

•

Domestic Car Rental—provides car rentals and ancillary products and services in the United States.

•

International Car Rental—provides vehicle rentals and ancillary products and services primarily in Argentina, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

•

Truck Rental—provides truck rentals and related services to consumers and light commercial users in the United States.

In presenting the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Vehicle Programs. The Company presents separately the financial data of its vehicle programs. These programs are distinct from the Company’s other activities since the assets under vehicle programs are generally funded through the issuance of debt that is collateralized by such assets. The income generated by these assets is used, in part, to repay the principal and interest associated with the debt. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the generation or acquisition of such assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of the Company’s vehicle programs. The Company believes it is appropriate to segregate the financial data of its vehicle programs because, ultimately, the source of repayment of such debt is the realization of such assets.

Separation. In July 2006, the Company, then known as Cendant Corporation, was separated into four independent companies (the “Separation”):

•

Realogy Corporation—encompasses the Company’s former real estate services segment.

•

Wyndham Worldwide Corporation—encompasses the Company’s former Hospitality Services and Timeshare Resorts segments.

•

Travelport, Inc.—encompasses the Company’s former Travel Distribution Services segment.

•

Avis Budget Group, Inc.—encompasses the Company’s vehicle rental operations.

Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement (“Separation Agreement”) among the separating companies and a related Tax Sharing Agreement, Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport have agreed to assume and retain all of the liabilities primarily related to each of their respective businesses and operations, including litigation primarily related to each of their businesses where the Company is a named party. Realogy and Wyndham have also agreed to assume certain contingent and other corporate liabilities of the

F-9

Company or its subsidiaries incurred prior to the disposition of Travelport (see Note 8—Income Taxes and Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies).

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Principles

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Avis Budget and all entities in which the Company has a direct or indirect controlling financial interest and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. The Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary if it has (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses (or the right to receive the benefits) of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The use of estimates and assumptions as determined by management is required in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates are based on management’s evaluation of historical trends and other information available when the Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are recognized in accordance with the accounting rules for the estimate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue through the operation and licensing of the Avis and Budget rental systems, providing vehicle rentals and other services to business and leisure travelers and others. Other revenue includes rentals of GPS navigational units, sales of loss damage waivers and insurance products, fuel and fuel service charges, and other items. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the services have been rendered to customers, the pricing is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

Vehicle rental and rental-related revenue is recognized over the period the vehicle is rented. Licensing revenue principally consists of royalties paid by the Company’s licensees and is recorded as the licensees’ revenue is earned (generally over the rental period of a vehicle). Revenue and expenses associated with gasoline, vehicle licensing and airport concessions are recorded on a gross basis within revenue and operating expenses.

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” in the stockholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $182 million and $111 million, respectively. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions are included in earnings.

F-10

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment (including leasehold improvements) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation (non-vehicle related) is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated benefit period of the related assets, which may not exceed 20 years, or the lease term, if shorter. Useful lives are as follows:


Buildings		30 years
Furniture, fixtures & equipment		3 to 10 years
Capitalized software		3 to 7 years
Buses and support vehicles		4 to 15 years

The Company capitalizes the costs of software developed for internal use when the preliminary project stage is completed and management (i) commits to funding the project and (ii) believes it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The software developed or obtained for internal use is amortized on a straight-line basis commencing when such software is ready for its intended use. The net carrying value of software developed or obtained for internal use was $73 million and $84 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the fair values assigned to the tangible assets acquired, the identifiable intangible assets that are required to be valued and reported and the liabilities assumed. The Company does not amortize goodwill, but tests it at least annually for recoverability. Other intangible assets, primarily trademarks, with indefinite lives are not amortized but are evaluated annually for impairment. Other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their remaining useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company is required to assess goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. The Company performs its annual impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of each year. Each of the Company’s operating segments represents a reporting unit. If the carrying value of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

The Company assesses goodwill for such impairment by comparing the carrying value of each reporting unit to its fair value using the present value of expected future cash flows. When available and as appropriate, comparative market multiples and other factors to corroborate the discounted cash flow results are used.

The Company also evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. Property and equipment is evaluated separately within each segment. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value.

F-11

During 2010 and 2009, there was no impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets.

In 2008, the Company recorded a $1,244 million ($1,042 million, net of tax) charge to reflect (i) the impairment of goodwill and (ii) the impairment of the Company’s tradenames asset. These charges reflect the decline in their fair value below their carrying value, primarily as a result of reduced market valuations for vehicle services and other companies, as well as reduced profit forecasts due to soft economic conditions and increased financing costs. Domestic Car Rental recorded $882 million and International Car Rental recorded $275 million for goodwill and tradenames impairment and Truck Rental recorded $87 million for goodwill impairment.

Program Cash

Program cash primarily represents amounts specifically designated to purchase assets under vehicle programs and/or to repay the related debt.

Vehicles

Vehicles are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The initial cost of the vehicles is recorded net of incentives and allowances from manufacturers. The Company acquires many of its rental vehicles pursuant to repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs established by automobile manufacturers. Under these programs, the manufacturers agree to repurchase vehicles at a specified price and date, or guarantee the depreciation rate for a specified period of time, subject to certain eligibility criteria (such as car condition and mileage requirements). The Company depreciates vehicles such that the net book value on the date of return to the manufacturers is intended to equal the contractual guaranteed residual values, thereby minimizing any gain or loss. The Company records additional vehicle depreciation expense, which totaled $23 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, for any expected reduction in the contractual guaranteed residual values due to excessive wear or damages.

Rental vehicles acquired outside of manufacturer repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs are depreciated based upon their estimated residual values at their expected dates of disposition, after giving effect to anticipated conditions in the used car market which are reviewed on a continuous basis.

For 2010, 2009 and 2008, rental vehicles were depreciated at rates ranging from 5% to 35% per annum. Upon disposal of the vehicles, depreciation expense is adjusted for any difference between the net sales proceeds and the remaining book value. Vehicle-related interest expense amounts are net of vehicle-related interest income of $11 million, $15 million and $7 million for 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

In 2008, the Company increased the assumed service lives of its model year 2004 and later diesel trucks and model year 2005 and later gas trucks, to better reflect the projected hold period of these vehicles. This extension of service lives reflects the Company’s expectation that it will purchase and dispose of fewer trucks each year than previously projected, thereby lengthening average hold periods for its trucks. This change will also affect the value the Company realizes upon disposition of trucks. The change in estimate, effective as of October 1, 2008, was accounted for prospectively and resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $4 million, and decreased net loss by approximately $3 million ($0.02 per diluted share), for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Advertising Expenses

Advertising costs are expensed in the period incurred. Advertising expenses, recorded within selling, general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, include radio, television, “yellow pages” and other advertising, travel partner rewards programs, internet advertising and other promotions and were approximately $66 million, $87 million and $106 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

F-12

Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes that it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would adjust the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company reports revenues net of any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures its assets and liabilities at fair value on acquisition and revalues its derivative assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities are classified as follows: Level 1, which refers to assets and liabilities valued using quoted prices from active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, which refers to assets and liabilities for which significant other observable market inputs are readily available; and Level 3, which are valued based on significant unobservable inputs.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are used as part of the Company’s overall strategy to manage exposure to market risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and gasoline costs. As a matter of policy, derivatives are not used for trading or speculative purposes.

All derivatives are recorded at fair value either as assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized currently in earnings within the same line item as the hedged item (principally vehicle interest, net). The effective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. The ineffective portion is recognized currently in earnings within the same line item as the hedged item, including vehicle interest, net or interest related to corporate debt, net, based upon the nature of the hedged item. Amounts included in other comprehensive income are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged item affects earnings. Generally, all amounts related to our derivative instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows consistent with the nature of the hedged item (principally operating activities).

During 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not utilize fair value hedges.

Investments

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determination at each balance sheet date. The Company’s non-marketable preferred stock investments are accounted for at cost plus accretion. Common stock

investments in affiliates over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but not a controlling interest are carried on the equity method of accounting. Available-for-sale securities are carried at current fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported net of taxes as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Trading securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported currently in earnings.

In 2007, the Company acquired an investment in Carey Holdings, Inc. (“Carey”). In 2008, the Company recorded an $18 million charge ($11 million, net of tax), for impairment of its investment in Carey to reflect the other-than-temporary decline in the investment’s fair value below its carrying value. In 2009, Carey received a notice of default related to its primary debt agreements and entered into discussions to restructure the terms of the agreements. The Company recorded a $33 million charge ($20 million, net of tax) for impairment of its investment in Carey, to reflect the other-than-temporary decline of the investment’s fair value below its carrying value, based on cash flow estimates, reducing the carrying value of the investment in Carey to zero.

Aggregate realized gains and losses on investments and dividend income are recorded within other revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no net realized gains or losses in 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Self-Insurance Reserves

The Consolidated Balance Sheets include $305 million and $308 million of liabilities with respect to self-insured public liability and property damage as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Such liabilities relate to supplemental liability insurance, personal effects protection insurance, public liability, property damage and personal accident insurance claims for which the Company is self-insured. These obligations represent an estimate for both reported claims not yet paid and claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company estimates the required reserve for such claims on an undiscounted basis utilizing an actuarial method that is based upon various assumptions which include, but are not limited to, the Company’s historical loss experience and projected loss development factors. The required liability is also subject to adjustment in the future based upon the changes in claims experience, including changes in the number of incidents and changes in the ultimate cost per incident. These amounts are included within accounts payable and other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities.

The Consolidated Balance Sheets also include liabilities of approximately $56 million and $65 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to health and welfare, workers’ compensation and other benefits the Company provides to its employees. The Company estimates the liability required for such benefits based on actual claims outstanding and the estimated cost of claims incurred as of the balance sheet date. These amounts are included within accounts payable and other current liabilities.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards During 2010

In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2009-16, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” (“ASU No. 2009-16”), which (i) removes the concept of a Qualifying Special Purpose Entity (“QSPE”) from ASC topic 860 and eliminates the exception from applying ASC topic 810, Consolidation, to variable interest entities that are QSPEs, (ii) amends the accounting for transfers of financial assets and (iii) increases the related disclosures about transfers of financial assets. This guidance applies to fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2009 and transfers that occurred both before and after its effective date. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2010, as required, and it did not have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-17, “Accounting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities” (“ASU No. 2009-17”). ASU No. 2009-17 formally incorporates into the FASB Codification

F-14

amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) made by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 167 to require that a comprehensive qualitative analysis be performed to determine whether a holder of variable interests in a variable interest entity also has a controlling financial interest in that entity. In addition, the amendments require that the same type of analysis be applied to entities that were previously designated as qualifying special-purpose entities. This guidance applies prospectively for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2009. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2010, as required, and it did not have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-6, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASU No. 2010-6”). ASU No. 2010-6 will expand the level of fair value disclosures by an entity, requiring information to be provided about movements of assets between levels 1 and 2, a reconciliation of purchases, sales, issuance and settlements for all level 3 instruments and fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2010, as required, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements for level 3 instruments and fair value measurements, which were adopted on January 1, 2011, as required, and it did not have, and is not expected to have, a significant impact on its financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, “Subsequent Events – Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. The Company adopted this guidance upon its issuance, as required, and it did not have a significant impact on its financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The provisions of the following new accounting pronouncements were adopted on January 1, 2011 and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements:

(i)

An amendment to the procedure for performing step 1 of the goodwill impairment test.

(ii)

An amendment to the disclosure requirements for supplementary pro forma information for business combinations.

Diluted	$	0.49	$	(0.46	)	$	(11.04	)

^(a⁾

As the Company incurred a net loss in 2009 and 2008, all outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, stock warrants and issuable shares underlying the convertible notes issued in 2009, have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore are excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Accordingly, basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding are equal for such periods.

F-15

The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from the computation of diluted EPS:

Represents all outstanding warrants for 2010, 2009 and 2008. The exercise price for the warrants issued in 2009 was $22.50.

4.	Restructuring Charges

Beginning in late 2008, the Company implemented strategic initiatives within the Company’s Domestic Car Rental, International Car Rental and Truck Rental segments, as part of a five-point cost-reduction and efficiency improvement plan, to reduce costs, enhance organizational efficiency and consolidate and rationalize existing processes and facilities. During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, as part of this process, the Company formally communicated the termination of employment to approximately 1,350, 1,750 and 2,300 employees, respectively, within its operating segments. The Company recorded restructuring charges in connection with these initiatives of $11 million in 2010, $20 million in 2009 and $28 million in 2008. The majority of these restructuring charges have been settled in cash. These charges primarily represent costs associated with the closure and consolidation of certain back-office administrative facilities and severance, outplacement services and other costs associated with employee terminations. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had terminated substantially all these employees.

As of December 31, 2010, the remaining liability relating to these restructuring actions amounted to approximately $6 million, primarily for lease obligation costs and other items related to vacated locations which are expected to be paid through 2015. The Company has substantially completed its activities under this plan.

As of January 1, 2008, the Company had $2 million of liabilities related to pre-2008 restructuring activities.

5.	Licensing Activities

Revenues from licensing, which are recorded within other revenues on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, amounted to $46 million, $43 million and $40 million during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company renews licensee agreements in the normal course of business and occasionally terminates, purchases or sells licensee agreements. In connection with ongoing fees the Company receives from its licensees pursuant to the license agreements, the Company is required to provide certain services, such as training, marketing and the operation of reservation systems.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities related to vehicle programs are comprised of the following:

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $568 million (net of valuation allowances), most of which expire from 2027 through 2030. Currently the Company does not record valuation allowances on the majority of its tax loss carryforwards as there are adequate deferred tax liabilities that could be realized within the carryforward period. No provision has been made for U.S. federal deferred income taxes on approximately $505 million of accumulated and undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2010, since it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in those foreign operations. The determination of the amount of unrecognized U.S. federal deferred income tax liability for unremitted earnings is not practicable.

The reconciliation between the U.S. federal income tax statutory rate and the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows:


	As of December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Federal statutory rate		35.0	%		35.0	%		35.0	%

In 2010 and 2009, the Company realized a benefit relating to additional tax depreciation within the Company’s operations in Australia.

F-21

The following is a tabular reconciliation of the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the year:


	2010			2009			2008
Balance at January 1	$	603		$	601		$	612
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		-			1			-

Settlements		(129	)		(1	)		(2	)

Balance at December 31	$	40		$	603		$	601

Substantially all of the gross amount of the unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, if recognized, would affect the Company’s provision for or, benefit from income taxes. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits were offset by tax credits in the amount of $104 million and tax loss carryforwards in the amount of $10 million. The Company does not anticipate that total unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in 2011.

As of December 31, 2009, the unrecognized tax benefits recorded in accounts payable and other current liabilities were $383 million. As of December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the unrecognized tax benefits in long-term income taxes payable were $37 million, $100 million and $480 million, respectively, which were recorded as a component of Other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement entered into in connection with the Separation and the Separation Agreement, the Company is entitled to indemnification for non-Avis Budget Car Rental tax contingencies for taxable periods prior to and including the Separation. The majority of the $37 million of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010 are non-Avis Budget Car Rental tax contingencies.

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, the Company reduced its liabilities for accrued interest by $105 million and as of December 31, 2010, accrued interest was $20 million. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded additional liabilities of $19 million and $51 million, respectively, for the accrual of interest. These accruals had a minimal impact on the Company’s results of operations as the Company is entitled to indemnification for a substantial portion of such liabilities and recognized corresponding receivables from Realogy and Wyndham. The Company recognizes potential interest and corresponding indemnification from Realogy and Wyndham, related to unrecognized tax benefits within interest expense related to corporate debt, net on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Penalties incurred during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, were not significant and were recognized as a component of income taxes.

During 2010, the Company reached a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to its examination of the Company’s taxable years 2003 through 2006, the year of the Separation. The Company was entitled to indemnification for most pre-separation tax matters from Realogy and Wyndham and therefore amounts due to the IRS at the conclusion of the audit did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position. The Company made payments to the IRS and state tax authorities of $144 million, including interest, in conjunction with the conclusion of the audit, all of which were funded by Realogy and Wyndham. The Company was also reimbursed $89 million by Wyndham for the use of certain of the Company’s tax attributes in connection with the conclusion of the IRS audit. As a result of the conclusion of the audit, the Company reduced income taxes payable and related receivables from Realogy and Wyndham by approximately $295 million, which items offset within income from discontinued operations. In addition, in connection with the conclusion of the IRS audit, a reallocation of certain deferred taxes with our former subsidiaries resulted in a $16 million decrease to stockholders’ equity. The reductions in income taxes payable and receivables from Realogy and Wyndham are reflected in accounts payable and other current liabilities, and other current assets, respectively, as of December 31, 2010.

3¹/2% Convertible Senior Notes

The Company’s 3¹/2% Convertible Senior Notes due 2014 (the “Convertible Notes”) were issued in October 2009 at 100% of their face value for aggregate proceeds of $345 million. The Convertible Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Company. The Convertible Notes are not redeemable by the Company

F-25

prior to maturity; however, they are convertible by the holders at any time prior to the second trading day before the maturity date of the Convertible Notes. The initial conversion rate for the Convertible Notes is 61.5385 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.25 per share. The Convertible Notes mature October 1, 2014.

Holders may require the Company to repurchase, for cash, all or part of the Convertible Notes upon a “fundamental change”, as defined under the indenture, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes being repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, upon a “make-whole fundamental change”, prior to the maturity date of the Convertible Notes, the Company may, in some cases, increase the conversion rate for a holder that elects to convert its notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. Under these “make-whole” provisions the Company could be required to issue an additional 6.4 million shares to settle the Convertible Notes. The Company has designated 27.6 million shares (including the shares that could be issued under the “make-whole” provisions) which it can issue to settle its obligation upon conversion.

Concurrently with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company purchased a convertible note hedge and entered into a warrant transaction, which effectively increased the conversion price of the Convertible Notes, from the Company’s perspective, to $22.50 per share. The convertible note hedge is intended to reduce the net number of shares required to be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes. The significant terms of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions can be found in Note 17—Stockholders’ Equity.

Floating Rate Term Loan

The Company’s floating rate term loan was originally entered into in April 2006 as part of the Company’s senior credit facilities. In March 2010, the Company repaid $451 million of the loan and the terms were amended resulting in $52 million maturing in April 2012, which was subsequently repaid in October 2010, and the balance maturing in April 2014. The floating rate term loan bears interest at the greater of three month LIBOR or 1.50%, plus 425 basis points, for a rate of 5.75% at December 31, 2010. Quarterly installment payments of approximately $1 million are required through January 31, 2014. The remaining principal is due at the end of the term. In 2009, the Company repaid $9 million of outstanding principal under the floating rate term loan pursuant to quarterly installment payment requirements.

Floating Rate Senior Notes

The Company’s Floating Rate Senior Notes were issued in April 2006 at 100% of their face value for aggregate proceeds of $250 million. The interest rate on these notes is equal to three month LIBOR plus 250 basis points, for a rate of 2.79% at December 31, 2010. The floating rate notes pay interest quarterly on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year. The Company has the right to redeem these notes in whole or in part at any time after May 15, 2008, at the applicable scheduled redemption price, plus in each case, accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date.

7⁵/8% and 7³/4% Senior Notes

The Company’s 7⁵/8% and 7³/4% Senior Notes were issued in April 2006 at 100% of their face value for aggregate proceeds of $750 million. The notes pay interest semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Company has the right to redeem the 7⁵/8% and 7³/4% Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time on or after May 15, 2010 and May 15, 2011, respectively, at the applicable scheduled redemption price, plus any accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date. During December 2010, the Company redeemed $175 million of its 7⁵/8% Senior Notes due 2014 at 103.813% plus accrued and unpaid interest.

F-26

9⁵/8% Senior Notes

The Company’s 9⁵/8% Senior Notes were issued in March 2010 at 98.6% of their face value for aggregate proceeds of $444 million and are due 2018. The notes pay interest semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year. The Company has the right to redeem these notes in whole or in part at any time at the applicable redemption price plus any accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date.

8¹/4% Senior Notes

The Company’s 8¹/4% Senior Notes were issued through two separate issuances of $400 million and $200 million, in October and November 2010, respectively, and form a single series of debt securities. The $400 million of notes were issued at 100% of their face value and the $200 million of notes were issued at 101% of their face value, for aggregate proceeds of $602 million, and are due January 2019. The notes pay interest semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Company has the right to redeem these notes in whole or in part at any time at the applicable redemption price plus any accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date. In connection with the sale of the notes, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which it completed in February 2011 an offer to exchange the notes for new notes with terms substantially identical to those of the originally issued notes except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights provisions relating to the originally issued notes do not apply to the new notes.

The Floating Rate Senior Notes, the 7⁵/8% and 7³/4% Senior Notes, the 9⁵/8% Senior Notes and the 8¹/4% Senior Notes, in each case as described above (the “Senior Notes”), are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness.

CORPORATE GUARANTEE

In February 2007, the Company agreed to guarantee (the “Guarantee”) the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the 7⁵/8% Senior Notes, 7³/4% Senior Notes and Floating Rate Senior Notes. The Company executed a Supplemental Indenture to provide the Guarantee in accordance with the terms and limitations of such notes and the indenture governing the notes. In consideration for providing the Guarantee, the Company received $14 million, before fees and expenses, from certain institutional investors. The $14 million consideration has been deferred and is being amortized over the life of the debt. As of December 31, 2010, the deferred consideration remaining to be amortized amounted to approximately $6 million.

COMMITTED CREDIT FACILITIES AND AVAILABLE FUNDING ARRANGEMENTS

At December 31, 2010, the committed credit facilities available to the Company and/or its subsidiaries at the corporate or Avis Budget Car Rental level were as follows:


	Total Capacity		Outstanding Borrowings		Letters of Credit Issued		Available Capacity

^(b)

This revolving credit facility matures in April 2013 and bears interest of one month LIBOR plus 450 basis points.

^(c⁾

The senior credit facilities, which encompass the floating rate term loans and the revolving credit facilities, are secured by pledges of all of the capital stock of all of the Company’s direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries and up to 66% of the capital stock of each foreign subsidiary directly owned by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, and liens on substantially all of the Company’s intellectual property and certain other real and personal property.

DEBT COVENANTS

The agreements governing the Company’s indebtedness contain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on dividends paid to the Company by certain of its subsidiaries, the incurrence of additional indebtedness by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, acquisitions, mergers, liquidations, and sale and leaseback transactions. The Company’s senior credit facilities contain maximum leverage and minimum coverage ratio requirements. As of December 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of its senior credit facilities.

Debt Under Vehicle Programs and Borrowing Arrangements

Debt under vehicle programs (including related party debt due to Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC (“Avis Budget Rental Car Funding”)) consisted of:

Capital leases ^(c)		-		31
Other ^(d)		284		463

	$	4,515	$	4,374

^(a)

The increase reflects increased borrowing within Domestic Car Rental operations due to an increase in the size of the Company’s domestic car rental fleet.

^(b⁾

The increase principally reflects additional borrowing used to purchase trucks previously under capital lease arrangements.

^(c⁾

The decrease reflects maturities of capital lease arrangements.

^(d)

The decrease primarily reflects the repayment of Canadian term notes.

Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC. Avis Budget Rental Car Funding, an unconsolidated bankruptcy remote qualifying special purpose limited liability company, issues privately placed notes to investors as well as to banks and bank-sponsored conduit entities. Avis Budget Rental Car Funding uses the proceeds from its note issuances to make loans to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, AESOP Leasing LP (“AESOP Leasing”), on a continuing basis. AESOP Leasing is required to use the proceeds of

F-28

such loans to acquire or finance the acquisition of vehicles used in the Company’s rental car operations. By issuing debt through the Avis Budget Rental Car Funding program, Avis Budget pays a lower rate of interest than if it had issued debt directly to third parties. Avis Budget Rental Car Funding is not consolidated, as the Company is not the “primary beneficiary” of Avis Budget Rental Car Funding. The Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary because the Company does not have the obligation to absorb the potential losses or receive the benefits of Avis Budget Rental Car Funding’s activities since the Company’s only significant source of variability in the earnings, losses or cash flows of Avis Budget Rental Car Funding is exposure to its own creditworthiness, due to its loan from Avis Budget Rental Car Funding. Because Avis Budget Rental Car Funding is not consolidated, AESOP Leasing’s loan obligations to Avis Budget Rental Car Funding are reflected as related party debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also has an asset within Assets under vehicle programs on its Consolidated Balance Sheets which represents securities issued to the Company by Avis Budget Rental Car Funding. AESOP Leasing is consolidated, as the Company is the “primary beneficiary” of AESOP Leasing; as a result, the vehicles purchased by AESOP Leasing remain on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company determined it is the primary beneficiary of AESOP Leasing, as it has the ability to direct its activities, an obligation to absorb a majority of its expected losses and the right to receive the benefits of AESOP Leasing’s activities. AESOP Leasing’s vehicles and related assets, which as of December 31, 2010 approximate $5.6 billion and many of which are subject to manufacturer repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements, collateralize the debt issued by Avis Budget Rental Car Funding. The assets and liabilities of AESOP Leasing are presented on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets within Assets under vehicle programs and Liabilities under vehicle programs, respectively. The assets of AESOP Leasing, included within Assets under vehicle programs (excluding the Investments in Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC– related party) are restricted. Such assets may be used only to repay the respective AESOP Leasing liabilities, included within Liabilities under vehicle programs, and to purchase new vehicles, although if certain collateral coverage requirements are met, AESOP Leasing may pay dividends from excess cash. The creditors of AESOP Leasing and Avis Budget Rental Car Funding have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. The Company periodically provides Avis Budget Rental Car Funding with non-contractually required support, in the form of equity and loans, to serve as additional collateral for the debt issued by Avis Budget Rental Car Funding. The Company also finances vehicles through other variable interest entities and partnerships, which are consolidated and whose assets and liabilities are included within Assets under vehicle programs and Liabilities under vehicle programs, respectively. The requirements of these entities include maintaining sufficient collateral levels and other covenants.

The business activities of Avis Budget Rental Car Funding are limited primarily to issuing indebtedness and using the proceeds thereof to make loans to AESOP Leasing for the purpose of acquiring or financing the acquisition of vehicles to be leased to the Company’s rental car subsidiaries and pledging its assets to secure the indebtedness. Because Avis Budget Rental Car Funding is not consolidated by the Company, its results of operations and cash flows are not reflected within the Company’s financial statements. Borrowings under the Avis Budget Rental Car Funding program primarily represent floating rate notes and had a weighted average interest rate of 3% and 2% as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. (Due to hedging transactions to reduce the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements, the Company’s weighted average effective interest rate related to the debt of Avis Budget Rental Car Funding was approximately 6% and 7% as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.)

During 2010, the Company established a variable funding note program with a maximum capacity of $400 million of notes to be issued by Avis Budget Rental Car Funding to the Company to finance the purchase of vehicles. These variable funding notes pay interest of 5.5% at December 31, 2010 and mature in March 2011. As of December 31, 2010, there were no outstanding amounts due to the Company from Avis Budget Rental Car Funding under the program; however, for the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company earned interest income of $5 million and incurred an equal amount of interest expense on these notes, which was eliminated in consolidation in the Company’s financial statements. As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s related interest receivable from Avis Budget Rental Car Funding was insignificant.

F-29

Truck financing. The Budget Truck Funding program consists of debt facilities established by the Company to finance the acquisition of the Budget Truck rental fleet. The borrowings under the Budget Truck Funding program are collateralized by $336 million of corresponding assets and are floating rate notes with a weighted average interest rate of 5% as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. The Company had also obtained a portion of its truck rental fleet under capital lease arrangements for which there were corresponding gross assets of $83 million with accumulated amortization of $42 million classified within vehicles, net on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2009. All of the capital lease arrangements matured in 2010. Interest paid as part of capital lease obligations was $1 million and $4 million during 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Other. Borrowings under the Company’s other vehicle rental programs primarily represent amounts issued under financing facilities that provide for borrowings to support the acquisition of vehicles used in the Company’s International Car Rental operations and loans to support the acquisition of certain vehicles for Domestic Car Rental operations. The debt issued is collateralized by $981 million of vehicles and related assets and primarily represents floating rate bank loans and a commercial paper conduit facility for which the weighted average interest rate as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was 4%.

The following table provides the contractual maturities of the Company’s debt under vehicle programs (including related party debt due to Avis Budget Rental Car Funding) at December 31, 2010:

DEBT COVENANTS

Debt agreements under the Company’s vehicle-backed funding programs contain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on dividends paid to the Company by certain of its subsidiaries and restrictions on indebtedness, mergers, liens, liquidations and sale and leaseback transactions and in some cases also require compliance with certain financial requirements. As of December 31, 2010, the Company is not aware of any instances of non-compliance with any of the financial or restrictive covenants contained in the debt agreements under its vehicle-backed funding programs.

Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company is committed to making rental payments under noncancelable operating leases covering various facilities and equipment. Many of the Company’s operating leases for facilities contain renewal options. These renewal options vary, but the majority include clauses for renewal for various term lengths and prevailing market rate rents.

Future minimum lease payments required under noncancelable operating leases, including minimum concession fees charged by airport authorities which, in many locations, are recoverable from vehicle rental customers, as of December 31, 2010 are as follows:


Year	Amount
2011	$	397
2012		334
2013		265
2014		189
2015		133
Thereafter		823

	$	2,141

The future minimum lease payments in the above table have been reduced by minimum future sublease rental inflows in aggregate of $12 million.

The Company maintains concession agreements with various airport authorities that allow the Company to conduct its car rental operations onsite. In general, concession fees for airport locations are based on a percentage of total commissionable revenue (as defined by each airport authority), subject to minimum annual guaranteed amounts. These concession fees are included in the Company’s total rent expense and for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:


	2010			2009			2008
Rent and minimum concession fees	$	473		$	493		$	477
Contingent concession expense		114			94			126

		587			587			603
Less: sublease rental income		(5	)		(5	)		(5	)

Total	$	582		$	582		$	598

Commitments under capital leases, other than those within the Company’s vehicle rental programs, for which the future minimum lease payments have been reflected in Note 15—Debt Under Vehicle Programs and Borrowing Arrangements, are not significant.

Contingencies

In connection with the spin-offs of Realogy and Wyndham, the Company entered into the Separation Agreement, pursuant to which Realogy assumed 62.5% and Wyndham assumed 37.5% of certain contingent and other corporate liabilities of the Company or its subsidiaries, which are not primarily related to any of the respective businesses of Realogy, Wyndham, Travelport and/or the Company’s vehicle rental operations, in each case incurred or allegedly incurred on or prior to the separation of Travelport from the Company (“Assumed Liabilities”). Realogy is entitled to receive 62.5% and Wyndham is entitled to receive 37.5% of the proceeds from certain contingent corporate assets of the Company, which are not primarily related to any

F-31

of the respective businesses of Realogy, Wyndham, Travelport and/or the Company’s vehicle rental operations, arising or accrued on or prior to the separation of Travelport from the Company (“Assumed Assets”). Additionally, if Realogy or Wyndham were to default on its payment of costs or expenses to the Company related to any Assumed Liabilities, the Company would be responsible for 50% of the defaulting party’s obligation. In such event, the Company would be allowed to use the defaulting party’s share of the proceeds of any Assumed Assets as a right of offset.

The Company does not believe that the impact of any unresolved proceedings constituting Assumed Liabilities should result in a material liability to the Company in relation to its consolidated financial position or liquidity, as Realogy and Wyndham each have agreed to assume responsibility for these liabilities as well as other liabilities related to the Company’s litigation that are not related to its vehicle rental operations.

In April 2007, Realogy was acquired by an affiliate of Apollo Management VI, L.P. The acquisition does not affect Realogy’s obligation to satisfy 62.5% of the contingent and other corporate liabilities of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement. As a result of the acquisition, Realogy has greater debt obligations and its ability to satisfy its portion of the contingent and other corporate liabilities may be adversely impacted. In accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement, Realogy posted a letter of credit in April 2007 for the benefit of the Company to cover its estimated share of the Assumed Liabilities discussed above, subject to adjustment, although there can be no assurance that such letter of credit will be sufficient or effective to cover Realogy’s actual obligations if and when they arise.

As a result of payments made by Realogy and Wyndham in July 2009, the judgment in respect of the litigation alleging breach of contract and fraud arising out of the acquisition of a business in 1998 (“Credentials Litigation”) was satisfied. Plaintiffs petitioned the court for attorneys’ fees in the amount of $33 million and the Company had accrued liabilities of approximately $12 million as of September 30, 2010. In December 2010, the parties settled with respect to plaintiff’s petition for attorneys’ fees. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Realogy and Wyndham have assumed all liabilities related to this litigation and paid the settlement amounts on December 31, 2010. Changes in liabilities related to such legal matters for which the Company is entitled to indemnification, and corresponding changes in the Company’s indemnification assets, are shown net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There was no net impact to the Company’s financial statements or cash balances as a result of the satisfaction of this judgment or the settlement.

In October 2009, a judgment was entered against the Company in the amount of $16 million following the completion of a jury trial for damages related to breach of contract in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. The lawsuit, which was filed in 2003, involved breach of contract and other claims by one of the Company’s licensees related to the acquisition of its Budget vehicle rental business in 2002. The Company believes the verdict in this case is unsupported by the evidence. In addition to the judgment for damages, in June 2010, the district court also entered an order against the Company in the amount of $3 million, in favor of the plaintiff’s motions for pre-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees. The Company has filed an appeal of the judgment and attorney’s fees awarded with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

The Company is also named in various litigation that is primarily related to the businesses of its former subsidiaries, including Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport and their current or former subsidiaries. The Company is entitled to indemnification under the Separation Agreement from such entities for any liability resulting from such litigation. In addition to the matters discussed above, the Company is also involved in claims, legal proceedings and governmental inquiries related to its vehicle rental operations, including with respect to contract disputes, business practices including wage and hour claims, insurance claims, intellectual property claims, environmental issues and other commercial, employment and tax matters, and breach of contract claims by licensees. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for such matters as appropriate or, for matters not requiring accrual, believes that they will not have a material adverse impact on

F-32

its results of operations, financial position or cash flows based on information currently available. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable and, although the Company believes that its accruals are adequate and/or that it has valid defenses in these matters, unfavorable resolutions could occur, which could adversely impact the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular reporting period.

Commitments to Purchase Vehicles

The Company maintains agreements with vehicle manufacturers under which the Company has agreed to purchase approximately $4.6 billion of vehicles from manufacturers over the next twelve months. The majority of these commitments are subject to the vehicle manufacturers’ satisfying their obligations under the repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements. The purchase of such vehicles is financed primarily through the issuance of vehicle-backed debt in addition to cash received upon the sale of vehicles in the used car market and under repurchase and guaranteed depreciation programs.

Other Purchase Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company makes various commitments to purchase goods or services from specific suppliers, including those related to capital expenditures. None of the purchase commitments made by the Company as of December 31, 2010 (aggregating approximately $94 million) was individually significant. These purchase obligations extend through 2015.

Concentrations

Concentrations of credit risk at December 31, 2010 include (i) risks related to the Company’s repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements with domestic and foreign car manufacturers, including General Motors Company, Ford Motor Company, Chrysler Group LLC, Hyundai Motor America and Kia Motors America, Inc., primarily with respect to receivables for program cars that have been returned to the car manufacturers and (ii) risks related to Realogy and Wyndham, including receivables of $105 million and $74 million, respectively, related to certain contingent, income tax and other corporate liabilities assumed by Realogy and Wyndham in connection with the Separation.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company maintains a liability for asset retirement obligations. An asset retirement obligation is a legal obligation to perform certain activities in connection with the retirement, disposal or abandonment of assets. The Company’s asset retirement obligations, which are measured at discounted fair values, are primarily related to the removal of underground gas storage tanks at its rental facilities. Liabilities accrued for asset retirement obligations were $18 million and $21 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Standard Guarantees/Indemnifications

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into numerous agreements that contain standard guarantees and indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party, among other things, for breaches of representations and warranties. In addition, many of these parties are also indemnified against any third-party claim resulting from the transaction that is contemplated in the underlying agreement. Such guarantees or indemnifications are granted under various agreements, including those governing (i) purchases, sales or outsourcing of assets or businesses, (ii) leases of real estate, (iii) licensing of trademarks, (iv) access to credit facilities and use of derivatives and (v) issuances of debt or equity securities. The guarantees or indemnifications issued are for the benefit of the (i) buyers in sale agreements and sellers in purchase agreements, (ii) landlords in lease contracts, (iii) licensees under licensing agreements, (iv) financial institutions in credit facility arrangements and derivative contracts and (v) underwriters and placement agents in debt or equity security issuances. While some of these guarantees extend only for the

F-33

duration of the underlying agreement, many survive the expiration of the term of the agreement or extend into perpetuity (unless subject to a legal statute of limitations). There are no specific limitations on the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these guarantees, nor is the Company able to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under these guarantees as the triggering events are not subject to predictability. With respect to certain of the aforementioned guarantees, such as indemnifications provided to landlords against third-party claims for the use of real estate property leased by the Company, the Company maintains insurance coverage that mitigates its potential exposure.

Other Guarantees

The Company has provided certain guarantees to, or for the benefit of, subsidiaries of Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport which, as previously discussed, were disposed of during third quarter 2006. These guarantees relate primarily to various real estate operating leases. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company may be required to make under the guarantees relating to the various real estate operating leases is estimated to be approximately $176 million. At December 31, 2010, the liability recorded by the Company in connection with these guarantees was approximately $4 million. To the extent that the Company would be required to perform under any of these guarantees, the Company is entitled to indemnification by Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport. The Company monitors the credit ratings and other relevant information for Realogy, Wyndham and Travelport’s parent company in order to assess the status of the payment/performance risk of these guarantees.

The Company has provided certain guarantees to, or for the benefit of, subsidiaries of PHH Corporation (“PHH”), which was spun-off during first quarter 2005. These guarantees relate primarily to various real estate leases. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company may be required to make under the guarantees relating to the various real estate leases is estimated to be approximately $7 million. At December 31, 2010, the liability recorded by the Company in connection with these guarantees was less than $1 million. To the extent that the Company would be required to perform under any of these guarantees, PHH has agreed to indemnify the Company.

In connection with the Company’s disposition of its former Marketing Services division (“MSD”), the Company agreed to provide certain indemnifications related to, among other things, litigation matters, the substantial majority of which have been settled as of December 31, 2010. In addition, pursuant to a number of commercial arrangements entered into between certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and MSD, the Company also agreed, among other things, to provide a minimum number of call transfers to certain MSD subsidiaries, as well as retaining pre-existing guarantee obligations for certain real estate operating lease obligations on behalf of certain MSD subsidiaries. The Company established a liability for the estimated fair value of these guarantees in the amount of approximately $100 million on the sale date, which reduced the gain on the transaction recorded within discontinued operations. The residual liability as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $7 million. The maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under these guarantees is approximately $28 million.

Realogy and Wyndham have agreed to assume responsibility for the Company’s potential liabilities relating to PHH and MSD (other than the call transfer obligation). The Company monitors the credit ratings and other relevant information for Realogy and Wyndham in order to assess the status of the payment/performance risk of these guarantees. The Company also has a letter of credit which covers Realogy’s portion of these and certain other obligations.

Cash Dividend Payments

During 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not pay cash dividends.

F-34

Share Repurchases

During 2010 and 2009, the Company did not repurchase any of its common stock.

In 2008, the Company used approximately $33 million of available cash to repurchase approximately 2.9 million shares of Avis Budget Group common stock under its common stock repurchase program.

Convertible Note Hedge and Warrants

In 2009, the Company purchased a convertible note hedge for approximately $95 million ($59 million, net of tax), to potentially reduce the net number of shares required to be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes. Concurrently, the Company issued warrants for approximately $62 million to offset the cost of the convertible note hedge.

The convertible note hedge and warrants, which will be net-share settled, cover the purchase and issuance, respectively, of approximately 21.2 million shares of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution provisions. The initial strike price per share of the convertible note hedge and warrants is $16.25 and $22.50, respectively.

The convertible note hedge expires in October 2014 and is exercisable before expiration only to the extent that corresponding amounts of the Convertible Notes are exercised. The warrants expire ratably over 80 trading days beginning January 5, 2015. The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were accounted for as capital transactions and included as a component of stockholders’ equity. The significant terms of the Convertible Notes can be found in Note 14—Long-term Debt and Borrowing Arrangements.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income are as follows:

All components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are net of tax, except currency translation adjustments, which exclude income taxes related to indefinite investments in foreign subsidiaries.

^(a)

During 2010, the Company reclassified $40 million ($24 million, net of tax) of unrealized losses on certain interest rate swaps to early extinguishment of debt in connection with the repayment of a portion of the Company’s floating rate term loan and the settlement of such hedges (see Note 14—Long-term Debt and Borrowing Arrangements).

During 2010, the Company recorded unrealized gains on cash flow hedges of $60 million ($36 million, net of tax) in accumulated other comprehensive income which primarily related to the derivatives used to manage the interest-rate risk associated with the Company’s vehicle-backed debt and the Company’s floating rate debt (see Note 20—Financial Instruments). Such amount in 2010 includes $64 million ($39 million, net of tax) of unrealized gains on cash flow hedges related to the Company’s vehicle-backed debt and is offset by a corresponding increase in the Company’s Investment in Avis Budget Rental Car Funding on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted shares and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to its directors, officers, other employees and affiliates. As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s active stock-based compensation plan consists of the amended 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan, under which the Company is authorized to grant up to 12.5 million shares of its common stock and approximately 5 million shares were available for future grants. The Company may settle employee stock option exercises with either treasury shares or shares purchased on the open market. The Company typically issues shares related to vested RSUs from treasury shares.

The Company applies the direct method and tax law ordering approach to calculate the tax effects of stock-based compensation. In jurisdictions with net operating loss carryforwards, tax deductions for exercises of stock-based awards did not generate a cash benefit. Approximately $32 million of tax benefits will be recorded in additional paid-in capital when realized in these jurisdictions.

Stock Options

Following the spin-offs of Realogy and Wyndham, all previously outstanding and unvested stock options vested and converted into stock options of Avis Budget, Realogy and Wyndham. During first quarter 2010, the Company granted 160,000 stock options under the Company’s amended 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan. The stock options (i) vest ratably over a five year term, (ii) expire ten years from the date of grant and (iii) have an exercise price that was set at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.

The Company granted approximately 4 million stock options under the 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan in 2009 that vest based on performance, market and/or time vesting criteria. The 2009 grant consisted of approximately 2.7 million time-vesting stock options, approximately 0.9 million performance-vesting stock options and approximately 0.4 million market-vesting stock options. The performance-vesting and market-vesting stock options also contain a time-vesting component. The time-based awards cliff vest on the two-year anniversary of the date of grant while the performance-based awards vested on the one-year anniversary of the date of grant following attainment of minimum Adjusted EBITDA levels. The market-based awards were granted to the Company’s CEO and President and vest on the two-year anniversary of the date of grant. The vesting of the market-based awards is conditional on the average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock equaling or exceeding a certain price for a 20 consecutive trading day period, which was achieved during 2009. The option exercise price was set at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant and the options expire 10 years from the date of the grant. The terms of the performance-vesting stock options provide for immediate expiration if vesting criteria was not met by the end of the applicable performance period.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of the time-vesting stock options granted first quarter 2010 and the time-vesting and performance-vesting stock option awards granted in 2009. The Company determined the fair value of its market-vesting awards using a Monte Carlo simulation model with assumptions including, but not limited to, the options’ expected life and the expected volatility of the underlying stock. Based on facts and circumstances at the time of the grant, the Company used the implied volatility of its publicly traded, near-the-money stock options with a remaining maturity of at least one year in 2010 and a blended volatility rate that combines market-based measures of implied volatility with historical volatility as the most appropriate indicator of the Company’s expected volatility in 2009, when publicly traded stock options with a remaining maturity of at least one year were not available. The Company considered several factors in estimating the life of the options granted, including the historical option exercise behavior of employees and the option vesting periods. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and, since the Company does not currently pay or plan to pay a dividend on its common stock, the expected dividend yield was zero. Based on

F-36

these assumptions, the fair value of the Company’s time-vesting stock options issued in first quarter 2010 was estimated to be $6.16, the fair value of each of the Company’s time-vesting, performance-vesting and market-vesting stock options issued in 2009 was estimated to be approximately $0.64, $0.59 and $0.45, respectively.

The weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the periods and the assumptions used to estimate those values using the Black-Scholes simulation option pricing in 2010 and the Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo simulation option pricing in 2009, as applicable, were as follows:


	2010		2009
Expected volatility of stock price		54%		130%
Risk-free interest rate		2.82%		1.22%-1.46%
Expected life of options		6 years		3-4 years

As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s outstanding stock options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $54 million; there were 3.8 million “in-the-money” stock options; and aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $1 million. Approximately 1.9 million stock options are exercisable as of December 31, 2010 and approximately 3.0 million stock options are eligible to vest in 2011.

Restricted Stock and Stock Unit Awards

RSUs granted by the Company entitle the employee to receive one share of Avis Budget common stock upon vesting, which occurs ratably over a four-year period for the majority of RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2010. The Company also employs performance- and time-vesting criteria for RSU grants made to certain of the Company’s executives. The performance criteria will determine the number of RSUs that will ultimately vest and are based on growth in earnings before taxes and certain other metrics over varying periods of three to four years. The number of performance-based RSUs that will ultimately vest may range from 0% to 100% of the target award.

During 2010, the Company granted 971,000 market-vesting restricted stock units and 989,000 time-based restricted stock units under the Company’s amended 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan. The number of market-vesting restricted stock units which will ultimately vest is based on the Company’s common stock achieving certain price targets for a specified number of trading days, with 600,000 of the market-vesting restricted stock units vesting ratably over years two through five following the date of grant and 371,000 of the market-vesting restricted stock units cliff vesting after three years. Of the time-based restricted stock units, 789,000 vest ratably over a three-year period and 200,000 vest on the first anniversary of the date of the grant.

The Company determined the fair value of its market-vesting restricted stock units granted in 2010 using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of each of the Company’s market-vesting restricted stock units which contain five- and three-year vesting periods, issued in 2010, was estimated to be approximately $9.57 and $8.88, respectively. The assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the market-vesting restricted stock awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model in 2010 were as follows:


	2010
Expected volatility of stock price		54%
Risk-free interest rate		1.47%-1.74%
Valuation period		3 & 5 years
Dividend yield		0.0%

During 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company granted 989,000, 0, and 633,000 time-based RSUs, respectively. The number of RSUs granted does not include those for non-employee directors, which are discussed separately below.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s outstanding RSUs had aggregate intrinsic value of $48 million. Aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to RSUs amounted to $28 million as of December 31, 2010. The Company had approximately 1,393,000, 1,016,000 and 1,696,000 time-based awards outstanding at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Performance- and market-based awards outstanding at December 31, 2010, 2009

F-38

and 2008 were approximately 1,666,000, 839,000, and 977,000, respectively. Approximately 734,000 time-based and 585,000 performance-based RSUs are eligible to vest in 2011, if applicable service and performance criteria are satisfied.

Stock Appreciation Rights

In 2006, the Company issued stock-settled SARs to certain executives. Such SARs are settled in Company stock, have a seven-year term, and vest ratably over a four-year period or after three years with no graded vesting prior thereto. The Company’s policy is to grant SARs with exercise prices at then-current fair market value. At December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately 0.5 million SARs outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $24.40 and a weighted average contractual life of 2.6 years.

Non-employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company grants RSUs annually to members of the Board of Directors representing annual retainer, committee chair and membership stipends, which are payable in the form of Avis Budget common stock upon termination of service. During 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company granted 51,000, 119,000 and 107,000 RSUs under the 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan to its Board of Directors. The RSU grants are included in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share as common stock equivalents.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company is authorized to sell shares of its Avis Budget common stock to eligible employees under its non-compensatory employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”). In June 2009, stockholders approved the adoption of the Avis Budget Group Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which became effective on January 1, 2010, but has not been activated as of December 31, 2010. Under the terms of the ESPP, the fair market value of the shares of Avis Budget common stock which may be purchased by any employee cannot exceed $25,000 during any calendar year or 10% of the employee’s annual base salary. The purchase price of Avis Budget common stock shall be calculated at 95% of the fair market value of Avis Budget common stock at the end of the option period. The Company reserved a maximum of 2.5 million shares of which up to 125,000 shares of Avis Budget common stock purchased in an offer period may be either newly issued shares or existing treasury shares, and up to 1 million shares of Avis Budget common stock purchased under the ESPP in the aggregate may be either newly issued shares or existing treasury shares. Subject to the preceding limitation, shares purchased under the ESPP may be either newly issued shares, existing treasury shares, or new purchases in the open market.

Compensation Expense

Compensation expense for all outstanding employee stock awards is based on the estimated fair value of the award at the grant date and is recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the requisite service period. The Company’s policy is to record compensation expense related to the issuance of stock options, RSUs and SARs to its employees on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award and based on the estimated number of stock awards the Company believes it will ultimately provide. The Company records amortization expense related to performance-based RSUs on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting periods of the respective award and based on the estimated performance goals the Company believes it will ultimately achieve.

The Company recorded pretax stock-based compensation expense of $15 million ($9 million, net of tax) each year during 2010, 2009 and 2008, related to employee stock awards that were granted by the Company.

Employee Benefit Plans

Defined Contribution Savings Plans

The Company sponsors several defined contribution savings plans that provide certain eligible employees of the Company an opportunity to accumulate funds for retirement. The Company matches portions of the contributions of participating employees on the basis specified by the plans. The Company’s contributions to these plans were $9 million, $6 million and $15 million during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company made changes to various defined contribution savings plans effective January 1, 2009 and July 1, 2010. Included among these changes were modifications to the Company’s matching contribution and of certain vesting criteria and the merger of certain plans.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

The Company sponsors domestic non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain eligible employees and contributory defined benefit pension plans in certain foreign subsidiaries with participation in the plans at the employees’ option. Under these plans, benefits are based on an employee’s years of credited service and a percentage of final average compensation. However, the majority of such plans are frozen and are no longer accruing benefits.

The funded status of the defined benefit pension plans is recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period, but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost, are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.

The components of net periodic benefit cost and the assumptions related to the cost consisted of the following:


	For the Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Service cost	$	2		$	2		$	2
Interest cost		12			12			12
Expected return on plan assets		(11	)		(11	)		(14	)
Amortization of unrecognized amounts		6			9			3

Net periodic benefit cost	$	9		$	12		$	3

F-40

The Company uses a measurement date of December 31 for its pension plans. The funded status of the pension plans as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was as follows:


Change in Benefit Obligation	2010			2009
Benefit obligation at end of prior year	$	214		$	200
Service cost		2			2
Interest cost		12			12
Plan amendments		1			1
Actuarial loss		17			9
Net benefits paid		(10	)		(10	)

Benefit obligation at end of current year	$	236		$	214

Change in Plan Assets
Fair value of assets at end of prior year	$	156		$	131
Actual return on plan assets		20			28
Employer contributions		7			7
Net benefits paid		(10	)		(10	)

Fair value of assets at end of current year	$	173		$	156

Funded status at end of year (recognized in other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets)	$	(63	)	$	(58	)

The estimated amount that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost in 2011 is $8 million, which consists of $7 million for net actuarial loss and $1 million for prior service cost.

The following assumptions were used to determine pension obligations and pension costs for the principal plans in which the Company’s employees participated:


	For the Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Discount rate:
Net periodic benefit cost		5.75	%		6.25	%		6.25	%
Benefit obligation		5.25	%		5.75	%		6.25	%
Long-term rate of return on plan assets		8.25	%		8.25	%		8.25	%

To select a discount rate for its defined benefit pension plans, the Company uses a modeling process that involves matching the expected cash outflows of such plan, to a yield curve constructed from a portfolio of AA rated fixed-income debt instruments. The Company uses the average yield of this hypothetical portfolio as a discount rate benchmark.

The Company’s expected rate of return on plan assets of 8.25%, used to determine pension obligations and pension costs, is a long term rate based on historic plan asset returns over varying long-term periods combined with current market conditions and broad asset mix considerations. The expected rate of return is a long term assumption and generally does not change annually.

As of December 31, 2010, substantially all of the Company’s defined benefit pension plans had a projected benefit obligation in excess of the fair value of plan assets. The Company expects to contribute approximately $14 million to these plans in 2011.

The Company’s defined benefit pension plans’ assets are invested primarily in mutual funds and may change in value due to various risks, such as interest rate and credit risk and overall market volatility. Due to the

F-41

level of risk associated with investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of the pension plans’ investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes would materially affect the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements.

The defined benefit pension plans’ investment goals and objectives are managed by the Company with consultation from independent investment advisors. The Company seeks to produce returns on pension plan investments, which are based on levels of liquidity and investment risk that the Company believes are prudent and reasonable, given prevailing capital market conditions. The pension plans’ assets are managed in the long-term interests of the participants and the beneficiaries of the plans. The Company’s overall investment strategy has been to achieve a mix of approximately 65% of investments for long-term growth and 35% for near-term benefit payments with a wide diversification of asset types and fund strategies. The Company believes that diversification of the pension plans’ assets is an important investment strategy to provide reasonable assurance that no single security or class of securities will have a disproportionate impact on the pension plans. As such, the Company allocates assets between traditional equity, fixed income (U.S. and non-U.S. government issued securities, corporate bonds and short-term cash investments) and alternative investment strategies.

The equity component’s purpose is to provide a total return that will help preserve the purchasing power of the assets. The pension plans hold various mutual funds that invest in equity securities and are diversified among funds that invest in large cap, small cap, growth, value and international stocks as well as funds that are intended to “track” an index, such as the S&P 500. The equity investments in the portfolios will represent a greater assumption of market volatility and risk as well as provide higher anticipated total return over the long term. The equity component is expected to approximate 45%-65% of the pension plans’ assets.

The purpose of the fixed income component is to provide a deflation hedge, to reduce the overall volatility of the pension plans assets in relation to the liability and to produce current income. The pension plans hold mutual funds that invest in securities issued by governments, government agencies and corporations. The fixed income component is expected to approximate 30%-40% of the pension plans’ assets.

The purpose of the alternative asset component is to provide diversification and current income to the portfolio and to adjust the pension plans’ asset composition opportunistically when market conditions are favorable for equity, fixed income, cash and/or other assets. Investments in real estate mutual funds have been a component of the portfolios to provide downside risk protection as historically they have performed well in poor capital markets. The alternative asset component is expected to approximate 5%-15% of the pension plans’ assets.

The Company used significant observable inputs (Level 2 inputs) to determine the fair value of the defined benefit pension plans’ assets. See Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for the Company’s methodology used to measure fair value. The following table presents the defined benefit pension plans’ assets measured at fair value, as of December 31:


Asset Class	2010		2009
Cash equivalents	$	1	$	2
Short term investments		5		3
Domestic stock		74		66
International stock		30		26
Real estate investment trusts		6		5

The Company estimates that future benefit payments from plan assets will be $12 million, $11 million, $12 million, $13 million, $14 million and $75 million for 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 to 2020, respectively.

Financial Instruments

Risk Management

Foreign Currency Risk. The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its foreign currency denominated receivables and forecasted royalties, forecasted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and forecasted foreign currency denominated acquisitions. The Company primarily hedges its foreign currency exposure to the Canadian dollar, Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar. The majority of forward contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts do, however, largely offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk they economically hedge. Forward contracts used to hedge forecasted third party receipts and disbursements up to 12 months are designated and do qualify as cash flow hedges. The amount of gains or losses reclassified from other comprehensive income to earnings resulting from ineffectiveness or from excluding a component of the forward contracts’ gain or loss from the effectiveness calculation for cash flow hedges during 2010, 2009 and 2008 was not material, nor is the amount of gains or losses the Company expects to reclassify from other comprehensive income to earnings over the next 12 months.

Interest Rate Risk. The Company uses various hedging strategies including interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to create an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate assets and liabilities. In 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded net unrealized gains on all cash flow hedges of $36 million and $43 million, net of tax, respectively, to other comprehensive income. The after-tax amount of gains or losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings resulting from ineffectiveness for 2010, 2009 and 2008 was not material to the Company’s results of operations. In 2010, the Company reclassified a loss of $24 million, net of tax from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings in connection with the early termination of certain interest rate swaps related to the repayment of a portion of the Company’s floating rate term loan. The Company estimates that approximately $59 million of losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income will be recognized in earnings in 2011, which is expected to be offset in earnings by the impact of the underlying hedged items.

The Company uses interest rate swaps, designated as cash flow hedges, to manage the risk related to its floating rate corporate debt. In connection with such cash flow hedges, the Company recorded net unrealized losses of $3 million, $4 million and $1 million, net of tax, during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, to other comprehensive income.

The Company uses derivatives to manage the risk associated with its floating rate vehicle-backed debt. These derivatives include freestanding derivatives and derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, which have maturities ranging from January 2011 to December 2014. In connection with such cash flow hedges, the Company recorded net unrealized gain (loss) of $39 million, $47 million and $(85) million, net of tax, during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, to other comprehensive income. The Company recorded losses of $4 million, $6 million and $17 million related to freestanding derivatives during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Commodity Risk. The Company periodically enters into derivative commodity contracts to manage its exposure to changes in the price of unleaded gasoline. These instruments were designated as freestanding derivatives and the changes in fair value are recorded in the Company’s consolidated results of operations. These derivatives resulted in a gain (loss) of $1 million, $3 million and $(22) million in the Company’s consolidated results of operations during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding gasoline commodity contracts.

F-43

Credit Risk and Exposure. The Company is exposed to counterparty credit risks in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to various agreements and sales transactions. The Company manages such risk by evaluating the financial position and creditworthiness of such counterparties and by requiring collateral in certain instances in which financing is provided. The Company mitigates counterparty credit risk associated with its derivative contracts by monitoring the amount for which it is at risk with each counterparty, periodically evaluating counterparty creditworthiness and financial position, and where possible, dispersing its risk among multiple counterparties.

There were no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparties or groups of counterparties at December 31, 2010 or 2009 other than (i) risks related to the Company’s purchase, repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements with General Motors Company, Ford Motor Company, Chrysler Group LLC, Hyundai Motor America and Kia Motors America, Inc. with respect to program cars that were disposed but for which the Company has not yet received payment from the manufacturers (see Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), (ii) receivables from Realogy and Wyndham related to certain contingent, income tax and other corporate liabilities assumed by Realogy and Wyndham in connection with the Separation and (iii) risks related to leases which have been assumed by Realogy, Wyndham or Travelport but of which the Company is a guarantor. Concentrations of credit risk associated with trade receivables are considered minimal due to the Company’s diverse customer base. Bad debts have been minimal historically. The Company does not normally require collateral or other security to support credit sales.

Fair Value

Derivative instruments and hedging activities

As described above, derivative assets and liabilities consist principally of foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, interest rate contracts and commodity contracts.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments contain collateral support provisions that require the Company to post cash collateral to the extent that these derivatives are in a liability position. The aggregate fair value of such derivatives that are in a liability position and the aggregate fair value of assets needed to settle these derivatives as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $7 million, for which the Company has posted cash collateral in the same amount in the normal course of business.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, the Company held derivative instruments with absolute notional values as follows: interest rate caps of $5.0 billion and $3.9 billion, interest rate swaps of $139 million and $1.1 billion, and foreign exchange forward contracts of $128 million and $71 million.

Fair values of derivative instruments are as follows:


	As of December 31, 2010				As of December 31, 2009
	Fair Value, Asset Derivatives		Fair Value, Liability Derivatives		Fair Value, Asset Derivatives		Fair Value, Liability Derivatives

The effect of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 was (i) a gain of $12 million recognized as a component of operating expenses related to foreign exchange swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts, (ii) a $4 million loss recognized as a component of interest expense related to interest rate swaps and interest rate caps not designated as hedging instruments and (iii) a gain of $1 million recognized as a component of operating expenses related to our commodity contracts. The gain on foreign exchange swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts was largely offset by the foreign exchange losses on the underlying hedged items, primarily intracompany loans. The loss on the interest rate swaps had no impact on net interest expense as it was offset by reduced interest expense on the underlying floating rate debt which it hedges.

The effect of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 was (i) a loss of $5 million recognized as a component of operating expenses related to foreign exchange forward contracts, (ii) a gain of $3 million recognized as a component of operating expenses related to our commodity contracts and (iii) a $6 million loss recognized as a component of interest expense related to interest rate swaps and interest rate caps not designated as hedging instruments. The loss on the interest rate swaps had no impact on net interest expense as it was offset by reduced interest expense on the underlying floating rate debt which it hedges.

Debt Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is generally determined by reference to market values resulting from trading on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market. In some cases where quoted market prices are not available, prices are derived by considering the yield of the benchmark security that was issued to initially price the instruments and adjusting this rate by the credit spread that market participants would demand for the instruments as of the measurement date. In situations where long-term borrowings are part of a conduit facility backed by short term floating rate debt, the Company has determined that its carrying value approximates the fair value of this debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities, accounts receivable, program cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments at December 31 are as follows:


	2010						2009
	Carrying Amount			Estimated Fair Value			Carrying Amount			Estimated Fair Value
Corporate debt
Current portion of long-term debt	$	8		$	8		$	12		$	12

Derivatives in (liability) position.

F-45

The Company used significant observable inputs (Level 2 inputs), other than quoted unadjusted prices from active markets (Level 1 inputs), to determine the fair value of its derivative assets and liabilities.

Valuation Techniques. Derivatives entered into by the Company are typically executed over-the-counter and are valued using internal valuation techniques, as no quoted market prices exist for such instruments. The valuation technique and inputs depend on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying exposure. The principal techniques used to value these instruments are discounted cash flows and Black-Scholes option valuation models. These models take into account a variety of factors including, where applicable, maturity, commodity prices, interest rate yield curves of the Company and counterparties, credit curves, counterparty creditworthiness and currency exchange rates. These factors are applied on a consistent basis and are based upon observable inputs where available.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
