This Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment No. 1") amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on October 20, 2014 (the "Original Schedule 13D" and together with this Amendment No. 1, the "Schedule 13D") with respect to the shares ("Shares") of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). This Amendment No. 1 amends Items 3, 4, 5(a), (b) and (c) and 7 as set forth below.

 

Item 3.     SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The 32,030,264 Shares (including options to purchase 11,378,815 Shares) reported herein by the Reporting Person were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $578.6 million. Such Shares were acquired with investment funds in accounts managed by the Reporting Person and margin borrowings described in the following sentence. Such Shares are held by the investment funds managed by the Reporting Person in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to the Reporting Person from time to time, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin account are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts bear interest at a rate based upon the broker's call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein.

 

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:

 

On November 6, 2014, the Reporting Person sent a letter to the Issuer, attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference. 

 

Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.

 

Paragraph (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

a)    The aggregate percentage of Shares reported to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is based upon 457,810,116 Shares outstanding, which is equal to the sum of (i) the 447,693,207 Shares outstanding as of March 21, 2014, as reported in the Issuer's Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on April 11, 2014, plus (ii) the 10,116,909 Shares issued by the Issuer between May 16, 2014 and May 29, 2014 as reported in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 2014.

At the close of business on November 6, 2014, the Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own 32,030,264 Shares (including options to purchase 11,378,815 Shares), constituting approximately 7.0% of the Shares outstanding.

(b)    The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive powers over 32,030,264 Shares (including options to purchase 11,378,815 Shares), which powers are exercised by the Principal.

(c)    Information concerning transactions in the Shares effected by the Reporting Person since the filing of the Original Schedule 13D is set forth in Exhibit C hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. All of the transactions in Shares listed hereto were effected in the open market through various brokerage entities. 

Item 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

 

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:

 

Exhibit B:      Letter dated November 6, 2014 sent by the Reporting Person to the Issuer.

 

Exhibit C:      Transactions in the Shares since the Filing of the Original Schedule 13D.
