Subject: Avis Budget Car Rental 2018 Model Year Program Letter


This Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC 2018 Model Year Program Letter (the "Program Letter") will confirm the agreement reached between Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC ("ABCR"), its affiliates and all entities it controls and Ford Motor Company ("Ford"), (the "Parties"), regarding purchases by ABCR of Ford vehicles, which include any new and unused passenger cars, vans or trucks bearing the marks "Ford" or "Lincoln" as from time to time are offered for sale by Ford in the United States to Ford Dealers ("Ford Vehicles") for the 2018 Program Year. "Program Year" ("PY") is defined and outlined on Attachment VIII “Volume and Adjustments” from August 1, 2017 and runs through June 30, 2018 or the date listed as “End Date”. The 2018 PY is comprised of 2018 model year vehicles and includes all Ford Vehicles purchased by ABCR during the dates specified on Attachment VIII “Volume and Adjustments” unless both parties mutually agree to conclude the PY sooner. Exceptions to the PY will be summarized in Attachment VIII "Volume Adjustments" attached hereto and incorporated herein. The Parties agree that each month during the PY, ABCR shall prepare and submit to Ford during the 2nd week of the month, an updated production plan by week and by month, outlining production for the entire PY - the most current plan is outlined on Attachment IX “Production Plan” attached hereto and incorporated herein. The Parties understand the Production Plan does not constitute a timing guarantee; however, both Parties will make reasonable efforts to fulfill the Production Plan.

Other than those items specifically identified in this Program Letter, all terms and conditions announced in related communications from Ford to ABCR, Ford's 2018 Model Daily Rental Repurchase Program and Ford's 2018 Model Daily Rental Long Term Risk Program, dated June 1, 2017 (the "Program Communications") control. Terms used in this letter that are defined in such Program Communications shall have the meaning set forth in the Program Communications unless a contrary definition is provided in this Program Letter in which case the definition in this Program Letter shall prevail. “Ford Dealer” is

defined as an independent entity in the United States authorized by Ford to sell new Ford Vehicles under one or more dealer sales and service agreements.arties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Program Letter, and the Program Communications relating to the acquisition by ABCR or its affiliates from Ford, and the repurchase by Ford, of Ford Vehicles, shall constitute a single contract among the Parties for all purposes, including in the event of a bankruptcy filing by any of the Parties.

This Program Letter and all of the enhancements apply to the 2018 Program Year as defined herein. The terms and conditions contained in this Program letter are offered to meet competitive offers and promote the selection of Ford and Lincoln products. This Program Letter contains the entire agreement between Ford and ABCR with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements and understanding, written or oral. This Program Letter may only be changed by writing signed and delivered by the duly authorized representatives of ABCR and Ford.

Like Kind Exchange Notification
Ford is hereby notified that (ABCR) and its subsidiaries, AESOP Leasing L.P. (“AESOP Leasing”), Avis Rent A Car System, LLC (“Avis”) and Budget Rent A Car System, Inc. (“Budget”), have engaged AESOP Exchange Corporation as a qualified intermediary (“QI”) for the purpose of facilitating a like kind exchange program under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As such, ABCR, AESOP Leasing, Avis and Budget have assigned to AESOP Exchange Corporation, acting in its capacity as QI, all of their rights, but not their obligations, in any existing manufacturer purchase agreements they may have with Ford for the purchase of replacement Vehicles and/or the repurchase of relinquished Vehicles. This notification will
apply to all future purchases of replacement Vehicles and/or the repurchases of relinquished Vehicles unless specifically excluded in writing.

Purchase Volume
During the 2018 Program Year, ABCR agrees to purchase for use in or in support of operations at ABCR locations a Minimum Annual Volume of [REDACTED] Ford Vehicles from the Ford Dealers of their choice in the United States ("Minimum Annual Volume") in the mix outlined on Attachment I “Program Volume” attached hereto and incorporated herein. ABCR agrees to order for production [REDACTED] of the [REDACTED] Ford Vehicles for production prior to December 15, 2017. In recognition of this volume commitment, Ford agrees to provide ABCR with enhancements to the announced risk, repurchase and GAV programs as set forth herein.

In consideration of the obligations undertaken by ABCR, Ford shall cooperate with Ford Dealers with whom ABCR negotiates the purchase of Ford Vehicles (consistent with the sales and service agreements between Ford and Ford Dealers) to make reasonable allocations of Ford Vehicles available for resale to ABCR. ABCR understands and agrees that production loss attributable to (a) shortage or curtailment of material, labor, transportation, or utility service; (b) any labor or production difficulty; (c) any governmental action; and/or (d) any cause beyond the reasonable control of Ford may affect vehicle volumes and may result in lower volume deliveries and/or delays in deliveries. In any such event(s), Ford shall notify ABCR in a timely fashion and, if applicable, shall provide ABCR with an estimate as to the times(s) of any delays in such deliveries.

Ford will use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve the mix outlined in Attachment I “Program Volume” attached hereto and incorporated herein, and ABCR recognizes that the mix could change and that any such changes to the mix shall be changes determined necessary by Ford to accommodate changes to the Ford Vehicle production plans. ABCR acknowledges and agrees that it is possible that future demand for Ford Vehicles for retail sales in the United States could be at levels that may limit the allocation of such Vehicles available to fleet buyers such as ABCR. In the event Ford is unable to deliver the Minimum Annual Volume and to the extent such shortfall/delay is not due to causes beyond Ford's reasonable control as set forth above, Ford agrees to work with ABCR to find a commercially reasonable solution.
