On June 25, 2018, Herc Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Mark Irion as the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company effective June 25, 2018.

Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Irion, age 52, was the chief financial officer of Neff Corporation, a publicly traded equipment rental company, for 19 years until its sale in October 2017. Prior to his role with Neff, he was chief financial officer for Markvision Holdings, Inc., a computer component distribution company, from 1994 to 1998 and, before that, he was an audit senior for Deloitte & Touche LLP in the U.S. and New Zealand.

Mr. Irion will receive an initial annual base salary of $450,000 and will be eligible for a target annual incentive cash bonus opportunity of 75% of his base salary on a prorated basis for the 2018 fiscal year. Mr. Irion will receive a special equity award valued at approximately $1,000,000 in consideration of amounts that he is forfeiting under certain existing contracts with a third party. The equity award will be in the form of restricted stock units granted at the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on June 25, 2018, and will vest ratably over three years. Mr. Irion also will be eligible for long-term equity incentives under the Company’s 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan and will receive a 2018 equity award valued at $700,000, 30% of which will be delivered in the form of restricted stock units that vest ratably over three years, and 70% of which will be delivered in the form of performance stock units, in each case on generally the same terms provided to the Company’s other executive officers in the first quarter of 2018. Mr. Irion will be eligible to participate in the Herc Income Savings Plan, a 401(k) plan, and the Herc Rentals Supplemental Income Savings Plan, a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, on the same terms as the Company’s other executive officers. He will receive a bonus of $40,000 in lieu of relocation benefits that would otherwise be available to him and will be eligible for other perquisites on the same basis as the Company’s other executive officers. A description of the terms and conditions of the Company’s annual incentive cash incentive award (bonus) program, long-term equity incentive compensation, 401(k) plan, non-qualified deferred compensation plan and other personal benefits received by the Company’s executive officers was set forth in the Company’s proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2018.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Irion and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as an officer of the Company and there are no family relationships between Mr. Irion and any of the Company’s directors or executive officers. Mr. Irion does not have a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
