CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seek,” “on-track,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend” or “anticipate,” or the negative thereof or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy or outlook. You are cautioned that our business and operations are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and, consequently, our actual results may differ materially from those projected.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected include, but are not limited to, the following:


•	the possibility that RSC Holdings, Inc. ("RSC") or other companies that we have acquired or may acquire could have undiscovered liabilities or involve other unexpected costs may strain our management capabilities or may be difficult to integrate;


•	our highly leveraged capital structure requires us to use a substantial portion of our cash flow for debt service and can constrain our flexibility in responding to unanticipated or adverse business conditions;

•

a change in the pace of the recovery in our end markets which began late in the first quarter of 2010. Our business is cyclical and highly sensitive to North American construction and industrial activities. Although we have recently experienced an upturn in rental activity, there is no certainty this trend will continue. If the pace of the recovery slows or construction activity declines, our revenues and, because many of our costs are fixed, our profitability, may be adversely affected;


•	inability to benefit from government spending associated with stimulus-related construction projects;


•	restrictive covenants in our debt instruments, which can limit our financial and operational flexibility;


•	noncompliance with financial or other covenants in our debt agreements, which could result in our lenders terminating our credit facilities and requiring us to repay outstanding borrowings;


•	inability to access the capital that our businesses or growth plans may require;


•	inability to manage credit risk adequately or to collect on contracts with a large number of customers;


•	incurrence of impairment charges;


•	the outcome or other potential consequences of regulatory matters and commercial litigation;


•	increases in our loss reserves to address business operations or other claims and any claims that exceed our established levels of reserves;


•	incurrence of additional expenses (including indemnification obligations) and other costs in connection with litigation, regulatory and investigatory matters;


•	increases in our maintenance and replacement costs as we age our fleet, and decreases in the residual value of our equipment;


•	inability to sell our new or used fleet in the amounts, or at the prices, we expect;


•	turnover in our management team and inability to attract and retain key personnel;


•	rates we can charge and time utilization we can achieve being less than anticipated;


•	costs we incur being more than anticipated, and the inability to realize expected savings in the amounts or time frames planned;


•	dependence on key suppliers to obtain equipment and other supplies for our business on acceptable terms;


•	competition from existing and new competitors;


•	disruptions in our information technology systems;


•	the costs of complying with environmental and safety regulations;


•	labor disputes, work stoppages or other labor difficulties, which may impact our productivity, and potential enactment of new legislation or other changes in law affecting our labor relations or operations generally; and


•	shortfalls in our insurance coverage.

For a more complete description of these and other possible risks and uncertainties, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as well as to our subsequent filings with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date hereof, and we make no commitment to update or publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements in order to reflect new information or subsequent events, circumstances or changes in expectations.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

1 . Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

United Rentals, Inc. (“Holdings,” “URI” or the “Company”) is principally a holding company and conducts its operations primarily through its wholly owned subsidiary, United Rentals (North America), Inc. (“URNA”), and subsidiaries of URNA. Holdings’ primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of URNA. URNA’s various credit agreements and debt instruments place restrictions on its ability to transfer funds to its shareholder.

We rent equipment to a diverse customer base that includes construction and industrial companies, manufacturers, utilities, municipalities, homeowners and government entities in the United States and Canada. In addition to renting equipment, we sell new and used rental equipment, as well as related contractor supplies, parts and service.

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting policies described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”) and the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2011 Form 10-K.

In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been made. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full year.

2 . Acquisitions

On April 30, 2012 (“the acquisition date”), we acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares and voting interest of RSC Holdings, Inc. (“RSC”). The results of RSC's operations have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. RSC was one of the largest equipment rental providers in North America, and had a network of 440 rental locations in 43 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces as of December 31, 2011 . We believe that the acquisition will create a leading North American equipment rental company with a more attractive business mix, greater scale and enhanced growth prospects, and that the acquisition will provide us with financial benefits including reduced operating expenses and additional revenue opportunities.

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred of $2.6 billion consisted of the following:



Cash consideration	$	1,161
Stock consideration (30 million shares valued based on the URI acquisition date stock price)	1,396
Share-based compensation awards (1)	29
Total purchase consideration	$	2,586

(1) This relates to RSC stock options and restricted stock units which were outstanding as of the acquisition date. Each RSC stock option was converted into an adjusted URI stock option to acquire a number of shares of URI common stock, determined by multiplying the number of shares of RSC common stock subject to the RSC stock option by the option exchange ratio (rounded down, if necessary, to a whole share of URI common stock). The “option exchange ratio” means the sum of (i) 0.2783 and (ii) the quotient determined by dividing $10.80 by the volume-weighted average of the closing sale prices of shares of URI common stock as reported on the NYSE composite transactions reporting system for each of the ten consecutive trading days ending with the acquisition date. The option exchange ratio was 0.5161 . The exercise price per share of URI common stock subject to the adjusted URI option is equal to the per share exercise price of such RSC stock option divided by the option exchange ratio (rounded up, if necessary, to the nearest whole cent). Each RSC restricted stock unit (other than an award held by a member of the RSC board who was not also an employee or officer of RSC at such time) was converted into an adjusted URI restricted stock unit in an amount determined by multiplying the number of shares of RSC common stock subject to the RSC restricted stock unit by the option exchange ratio. The portion of the URI replacement awards that has been included in the purchase consideration was calculated as $29 and is based on the vesting which occurred prior to the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocations for these assets and liabilities are based on preliminary valuations and are subject to change as we obtain additional information during the acquisition measurement period.

(1) The fair value of accounts receivables acquired was $238 , and the gross contractual amount was $251 . We estimate that $13 will be uncollectible.

(2) The following table reflects the estimated fair values and useful lives of the acquired intangible assets identified based on URI's preliminary purchase accounting assessments:



	Fair value		Life (years)

Non-compete agreements	49		5
Total	$	1,240

(3) At the closing of the merger, URNA repaid RSC's senior ABL facility, 10 percent senior notes, and 9 ¹ / ₂ percent senior notes. The repaid debt is reflected as short-term above as it was paid on the acquisition date. The RSC debt reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 is discussed further in note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The debt in the table above includes $1,555 of the repaid RSC debt, and the fair values of the following debt assumed by URNA:



10 ¹ / ₄ percent Senior Notes	$	(225	)
8 ¹ / ₄ percent Senior Notes	(699		)
Capital leases	(99		)
Total assumed debt	$	(1,023	)

(4) All of the goodwill was assigned to our general rentals segment. The level of goodwill expected to result from the merger is primarily reflective of RSC's going-concern value, the value of RSC's assembled workforce, new customer relationships expected to arise from the merger, and operational synergies that we expect to achieve that would not be available to other market participants. $39 of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 include acquisition-related costs of $8 and $98 , respectively. Additionally, in 2011, we recognized $19 of additional acquisition-related costs. The acquisition-related costs are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of income as “RSC merger related costs” and primarily relate to financial and legal advisory fees. Additionally, the fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 include $31 of interim bridge financing costs. Subsequent to September 30, 2012 , we expect to incur an additional $10 to $30 of charges in connection with the merger, and we expect to recognize such costs by March 31, 2013 . In addition to the acquisition-related costs reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of income, we capitalized $67 of debt issuance costs associated with the issuance of debt to fund the acquisition, which are reflected, net of amortization subsequent to the acquisition date, in other long-term assets in our

Table of Contents

September 30, 2012 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Since the acquisition date, significant amounts of fleet have been moved between URI locations and the acquired RSC locations, and it is not practicable to reasonably estimate the amounts of revenue and earnings of RSC since the acquisition date. The impact of the RSC acquisition on our equipment rentals revenue is primarily reflected in the increases in the volume of OEC on rent of 79.7 percent and 56.9 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , respectively.

The table below presents pro forma consolidated income statement information as if RSC had been included in our consolidated results for the entire periods reflected. The pro forma information has been prepared using the purchase method of accounting, giving effect to the RSC acquisition as if the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2011 (“the pro forma acquisition date”). The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of our results of operations had the merger been completed on the above date, nor is it necessarily indicative of our future results. The pro forma information does not reflect any cost savings from operating efficiencies or synergies that could result from the merger, and also does not reflect additional revenue opportunities following the merger. The pro forma information includes adjustments to record the assets and liabilities of RSC at their respective fair values based on available information and to give effect to the financing for the acquisition and related transactions. The pro forma adjustments reflected in the table below are subject to change as additional analysis is performed. The purchase price allocations for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary valuations and are subject to change as we obtain additional information during the acquisition measurement period. Increases or decreases in the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired may impact our statements of income in future periods. We expect that the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be finalized during the one-year measurement period following the acquisition date.

Pro forma revenues reflect combined URI and RSC. Pro forma income (loss) from continuing operations before provision (benefit) for income taxes reflects combined URI and RSC with the following pro forma adjustments: 1) depreciation of rental equipment and non-rental depreciation were adjusted for the fair value mark-ups of equipment acquired in the RSC acquisition, the impact of which was offset by the impact of extending the useful lives of such equipment, 2) cost of rental equipment sales was adjusted for the fair value mark-ups of rental equipment acquired in the RSC acquisition, 3) the intangible assets acquired in the RSC acquisition were amortized, 4) interest expense was adjusted to reflect interest on the merger financing notes described in note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, 5) RSC historic interest on debt that is not part of the combined entity was eliminated, 6) RSC historic interest was adjusted for the fair value mark-ups of the debt acquired in the RSC acquisition, 7) the RSC merger related costs were eliminated as they were assumed to have been recognized prior to the pro forma acquisition date and 8) restructuring charges comprised of severance costs and branch closure charges associated with the merger were recognized from the pro forma acquisition date through June 30, 2012 . For the pro forma presentation, half of the restructuring charges were recognized in the first quarter following the pro forma acquisition date, and the remaining charges were recognized on a straight-line basis through June 30, 2012 . As of September 30, 2012 , we have recognized $91 of such restructuring charges, and expect to recognize an additional $10 to $30 of restructuring charges subsequent to September 30, 2012 .

4 . Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges

Closed Restructuring Program

Over the past several years, we have been focused on reducing our operating costs. In connection with this strategy, and in recognition of the challenging economic environment, we reduced our employee headcount from approximately 10,900 at January 1, 2008 (the beginning of the restructuring period) to approximately 7,500 at December 31, 2011 (the end of the restructuring period). Additionally, we reduced our branch network from 697 locations at January 1, 2008 to 529 locations at December 31, 2011. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the restructuring charge primarily reflected branch closure charges due to continuing lease obligations at vacant facilities.

Current Restructuring Program

In the second quarter of 2012, we initiated a new restructuring program related to severance costs and branch closure charges associated with the RSC merger. The branch closure charges principally relate to continuing lease obligations at vacant facilities closed subsequent to the RSC merger. As of September 30, 2012 , our employee headcount is approximately 11,200 and our branch network has 848 rental locations. Subsequent to September 30, 2012 , we expect to incur an additional $10 to $30 of charges in connection with the restructuring, which is expected to be substantially complete by March 31, 2013 .

The table below provides certain information concerning our restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 :

(1)	Reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of income as “Restructuring charge.” These charges are not allocated to our reportable segments.

Asset Impairment Charges

In addition to the restructuring charges discussed above, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , we recorded asset impairment charges of $10 and $13 , respectively, in our general rentals segment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 , we recorded asset impairment charges of $1 in our general rentals segment. The asset impairment charges are primarily reflected in non-rental depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and principally relate to write-offs of leasehold improvements and other fixed assets in connection with the restructuring activity discussed above.

5 . Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We have made acquisitions over the years, principally during the period from 1997 to 2000, which included the recognition of a significant amount of goodwill. As discussed in note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, on April 30, 2012 , we completed the acquisition of RSC. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred.

The following table presents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 :



	General rentals		Trench safety, power and HVAC		Total (1)
Balance at January 1, 2012	$	167	$	122	$	289
Goodwill related to acquisitions (2)	2,651		20		2,671

Balance at September 30, 2012	$	2,822	$	142	$	2,964

_________________


(1)	The total carrying amount of goodwill for all periods in the table above is reflected net of $1,557 of accumulated impairment charges, which were primarily recorded in our general rentals segment.


(2)	Includes goodwill adjustments for the effect on goodwill of changes to net assets acquired during the measurement period, which were not significant to our previously reported operating results or financial condition.

Other intangible assets were comprised of the following at September 30, 2012 and December 31 2011:

(Dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)



	September 30, 2012
	Weighted-Average Remaining Amortization Period	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Amount
Non-compete agreements	54 months	$	79	$	29	$	50

Non-compete agreements	46 months	$	30	$	25	$	5
Customer relationships	9 years	$	121	$	43	$	78

Our other intangibles assets, net at September 30, 2012 include the following assets associated with the 2012 acquisition of RSC discussed above (see note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). No residual value has been assigned to these intangible assets. The non-compete agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis, and the customer relationships and trade names, associated trademarks and other are being amortized using the sum of the years' digits method, which we believe best reflects the estimated pattern in which the economic benefits will be consumed.

Amortization expense for other intangible assets was $47 and $3 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 , respectively, and $82 and $6 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 , respectively. The 2012 increases primarily reflect the 2012 acquisition of RSC discussed in note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2012 , estimated amortization expense for other intangible assets for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows:



2012	$	48
2013	180
2014	164
2015	148
2016	133
Thereafter	591
Total	$	1,264

6 . Derivatives

We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value, and recognize changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments based on the designation of the derivative. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, we designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. As of September 30, 2012 , we do not have any outstanding derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges. The effective portion of the changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive income for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

Table of Contents

UNITED RENTALS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded currently in earnings. For derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, we recognize gains or losses due to changes in fair value in our condensed consolidated statements of income during the period in which the changes in fair value occur.

We are exposed to certain risks related to our ongoing business operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 , the primary risks we managed using derivative instruments were diesel price risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. At September 30, 2012 , we had outstanding fixed price swap contracts on diesel purchases which were entered into to mitigate the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of diesel. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , we entered into forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain Canadian dollar denominated intercompany loans. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 , there were no outstanding forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars. The outstanding forward contracts on diesel purchases were designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and the forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars represented derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments.

Fixed Price Diesel Swaps

The fixed price swap contracts on diesel purchases that were outstanding at September 30, 2012 were designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the gain or loss on these contracts is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (i.e., when the hedged gallons of diesel are used). The remaining gain or loss on the fixed price swap contracts in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any (i.e., the ineffective portion), is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income during the current period. As of September 30, 2012 , we had outstanding fixed price swap contracts covering 7.1 million gallons of diesel which will be purchased throughout 2012 and 2013 .

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars, which were all settled as of September 30, 2012 , represented derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments and gains or losses due to changes in the fair value of the forward contracts were recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income during the period in which the changes in fair value occurred. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , forward contracts were used to purchase $25 and $55 Canadian dollars, respectively, representing the total amount due at maturity for certain Canadian dollar denominated intercompany loans that were settled during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 . Upon maturity, the proceeds from the forward contracts were used to pay down the Canadian dollar denominated intercompany loans.

Financial Statement Presentation

As of September 30, 2012 an d December 31, 2011 , less than $1 was reflected in prepaid expenses and other assets and $1 was reflected in accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, and less than $1 was reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income in our condensed consolidated balance sheets associated with the outstanding fixed price swap contracts that were designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.

The effect of our derivative instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:

7 . Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of the following three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety:

Level 1- Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2- Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities include:


a)	quoted prices for similar assets in active markets;


b)	quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets;

Table of Contents


c)	inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset;


d)	inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset.

Level 3- Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity) and significant to the fair value measure.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 , our only assets and liabilities measured at fair value were our fixed price diesel swaps co ntracts, which are Level 2 derivatives measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 , less than $1 was reflected in prepaid expenses and other assets and $1 was reflected in accrued expenses and other liabilities in our conde nsed consolidated balance sheets, respectively, reflecting the fair values of the fixed price diesel swaps contracts. As discussed in note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we entered into the fixed price swap contracts on diesel purchases to mitigate the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of diesel. Fair value is determined based on observable market data. As of September 30, 2012 , we have fixed price swap contracts that mature throughout 2012 and 2013 covering 7.1 million gallons of diesel which we will buy at the average contract price of $3.92 per gallon, while the average forward price for the hedged gallons was $3.95 per gallon as of September 30, 2012 .

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value due to the immediate to short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair values of our ABL facility and accounts receivable securitization facility approximate their book values as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 . The estimated fair values of our financial instruments as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 have been calculated based upon available market information or an appropriate valuation technique, and are presented below by level in the fair value hierarchy:



	September 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Level 1:
Subordinated convertible debentures	$	55	$	54	$	55	$	49
Senior and senior subordinated notes	5,480		5,903		1,732		1,795
Level 2:
4 percent Convertible Senior Notes (1)	135		150		129		138
Level 3:
Capital leases (2)	143		124		39		33

___________________


(1)	The fair value of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes is based on the market value of comparable notes. Consistent with the carrying amount, the fair value excludes the equity component of the notes. To exclude the equity component and calculate the fair value, we used an effective interest rate of 7.5 percent.


(2)	The fair value of capital leases reflects the present value of the leases, which was determined using a 7.0 percent interest rate.

. Debt and Subordinated Convertible Debentures

Debt consists of the following:

In September 2012 , we amended our accounts receivable securitization facility. The amended facility, which became e ffective on September 24, 2012 and expires on September 23, 2013 , includes an increase in the facility size from $ 300 to $ 475 and may be extended on a 364 -day basis by mutual agreement of the Company and the purchasers under the facility. Borrowings under the amended facility will continue to be reflected as short-term debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Key provisions of the amended facility include the following:


•	borrowings are permitted only to the extent that the face amount of the receivables in the collateral pool, net of applicable reserves, exceeds the outstanding loans by a specified amount. As of September 30, 2012 , there were $ 549 of receivables, net of applicable reserves, in the collateral pool;


•	the receivables in the collateral pool are the lenders' only source of repayment;


•	upon early termination of the facility, no new amounts will be advanced under the facility and collections on the receivables securing the facility will be used to repay the outstanding borrowings;


•	standard termination events including, without limitation, a change of control of Holdings, URNA or certain of its subsidiaries, a failure to make payments, a failure to comply with standard default, delinquency, dilution and days sales outstanding covena nts, or breach of certain financial ratio covenants under the ABL facility.

A t September 30, 2012 , $0 was available under our accounts receivable securitization facility. The interest rate applicable to the accounts receivable securitization facility was 0.8 percent at September 30, 2012 . During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the monthly average amount outstanding under the accounts receivable securitization facility, including the former facility and the amended facility, was $265 , and the weighted-average interest rate thereon was 0.9 percent . The maximum month-end amount outstanding under the accounts receivable securitization facility, including the former facility and the amended facility, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $475 .

(2)

At September 30, 2012 , $683 was available under our ABL facility, net of $80 of letters of credit. The interest rate applicable to the ABL facility was 2.3 percent at September 30, 2012 . During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the monthly average amount outstanding under the ABL facility was $1,105 , and the weighted-average interest rate thereon was 2.3 percent . The maximum month-end amount outstanding under the ABL facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,287 . In March 2012, the size of the ABL facility was increased to $1.9 billion .


(3)	Upon consummation of the RSC merger, we assumed certain of RSC's debt, including capital leases. See below for additional detail regarding the assumed RSC debt.


(4)	Based on the price of our common stock, holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes had the right to

(Dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

convert the notes during the second and third quarters of 2012 at a conversion price of $ 21.83 per share of common stock, and $17 of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were converted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 . Upon conversion of the notes, we issued approximately 0.8 million shares of our common stock to the applicable holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes. Based on the price of our common stock during the third quarter of 2012, holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes may convert the notes during the fourth quarter of 2012 at a conversion price of $21.83 per share of common stock. Between October 1, 2012 (the beginning of the fourth quarter) and October 12, 2012 , none of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were converted.


(5)	In connection with the RSC merger, on March 9, 2012 , we issued the merger financing notes. See below for additional detail regarding each of the merger financing notes.

(6)

The difference between the September 30, 2012 carrying value of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes and the $168 principal amount reflects the $33 unamortized portion of the original issue discount recognized upon issuance of the notes, which is being amortized through the maturity date of November 15, 2015. Because the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were redeemable at September 30, 2012 , an amount equal to the $33 unamortized portion of the original issue discount is separately classified in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and referred to as “temporary equity.” Based on the price of our common stock during the third quarter of 2012, holders of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes have the right to redeem the notes during the fourth quarter of 2012 at a conversion price of $11.11 per share of common stock. Between October 1, 2012 (the beginning of the fourth quarter) and October 12, 2012 , none of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were redeemed.

(7)

In August 1998, a subsidiary trust of Holdings (the “Trust”) issued and sold $300 of 6 ¹ / 2 percent Convertible Quarterly Income Preferred Securities (“QUIPS”) in a private offering. The Trust used the proceeds from the offering to purchase 6 ¹ / 2 percent subordinated convertible debentures due 2028 (the “Debentures”), which resulted in Holdings receiving all of the net proceeds of the offering. The QUIPS are non-voting securities, carry a liquidation value of $50 (fifty dollars) per security and are convertible into Holdings’ common stock. Total debt at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 excludes $55 of these Debentures, which are separately classified in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and referred to as “subordinated convertible debentures.” The subordinated convertible debentures reflect the obligation to our subsidiary that has issued the QUIPS. This subsidiary is not consolidated in our financial statements because we are not the primary beneficiary of the Trust.


(8)	As of September 30, 2012 , our short-term debt primarily reflects $475 of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility and $135 of 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes. The 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes mature in 2015, but are reflected as short-term debt because they are redeemable at September 30, 2012 .

Assumed RSC Debt

10 ¹ / ₄ percent Senior Notes . In November 2009, RSC issued $200 aggregate principal amount of 10 ¹ / 4 percent Senior Notes (the “10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes”), which are due November 15, 2019 . Upon consummation of the RSC merger, URNA assumed the 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes. The 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by URNA's domestic subsidiaries, subject to limited exceptions. The 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes may be redeemed on or after November 15, 2014 at specified redemption prices that range from 105.125 percent in 2014 to 100 percent in 2017 and thereafter. The indenture governing the 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes contains certain restrictive covenants that apply to URNA and its restricted subsidiaries, including, among others, limitations on their ability to (1) incur additional debt, (2) pay dividends or distributions on their capital stock or repurchase their capital stock, (3) make certain investments, (4) create liens on their assets to secure debt, (5) enter into transactions with affiliates, (6) create limitations on the ability of the restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or distributions to their respective parents, (7) merge or consolidate with another company and (8) transfer and sell assets. The indenture also requires that, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture), URNA must make an offer to purchase all of the then outstanding 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes tendered at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon. The difference between the September 30, 2012 carrying value of the 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes and the $200 principal amount relates to the $24 unamortized portion of the fair value adjustment recognized upon consummation of the RSC merger, which is being amortized through the above maturity date. The effective interest rate on the 10 ¹ / 4 percent Notes is 8.3 percent.

8 ¹ / 4 percent Senior Notes. In January 2011, RSC issued $650 aggregate principal amount of 8 ¹ / 4 percent Senior Notes (the “8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes”), which are due February 1, 2021 . Upon consummation of the RSC merger, URNA assumed the 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes. The 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by URNA's domestic subsidiaries, subject to limited exceptions. The 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes may be redeemed on or after February 1, 2016 at specified redemption prices that range from 104.125 percent in 2016 to 100 percent in 2019 and thereafter. The indenture governing the 8 1/4 percent Notes contains certain restrictive covenants that apply to URNA and its restricted subsidiaries, including, among others, limitations on their ability to (1) incur additional debt, (2) pay dividends or distributions on their capital stock or repurchase their capital stock, (3)

make certain investments, (4) create liens on their assets to secure debt, (5) enter into transactions with affiliates, (6) create limitations on the ability of the restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or distributions to their respective parents, (7) merge or consolidate with another company and (8) transfer and sell assets. The indenture also requires that, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture), URNA must make an offer to purchase all of the then outstanding 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes tendered at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon. The difference between the September 30, 2012 carrying value of the 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes and the $650 principal amount relates to the $47 unamortized portion of the fair value adjustment recognized upon consummation of the RSC merger, which is being amortized through the above maturity date. The effective interest rate on the 8 ¹ / 4 percent Notes is 7.0 percent.

Merger Financing Notes

5 ³ / ₄ percent Senior Secured Notes . In March 2012 , a special purpose entity formed for the purpose of issuing the notes and subsequently merged into URNA ("Funding SPV") issued $ 750 aggregate principal amount of 5 ³ / ₄ percent Senior Secured Notes (the “5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes”) which are due July 15, 2018 . The net proceeds from the sale of the 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes were approximately $ 733 (after deducting the initial purchasers' fees and offering expenses). Upon consummation of the RSC merger, URNA assumed the 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes. The 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes are secured and are guaranteed by Holdings and, subject to limited exceptions, URNA's domestic subsidiaries. The 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes may be redeemed on or after July 15, 2015 , at specified redemption prices that range from 102.875 percent in the 12-month period commencing on July 15, 2015 , to 100 percent in the 12-month period commencing on July 15, 2017 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The indenture governing the 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes contains certain restrictive covenants, including, among others, limitations on (1) liens; (2) additional indebtedness; (3) mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; (4) sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets; (5) loans and other investments; (6) dividends and other distributions, stock repurchases and redemptions and other restricted payments; (7) restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (8) transactions with affiliates; and (9) designations of unrestricted subsidiaries, as well as a requirement to timely file periodic reports with the SEC. The indenture also includes covenants relating to the grant of and maintenance of liens for the benefit of the notes collateral agent. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications that would allow URI to engage in these activities under certain conditions. The indenture also requires that, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture), URI must make an offer to purchase all of the then-outstanding 5 ³ / ₄ percent Notes tendered at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon.

7 ³ / ₈ percent Senior Notes . In March 2012 , Funding SPV issued $ 750 aggregate principal amount of 7 ³ / ₈ percent Senior Notes (the “7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes”) which are due May 15, 2020 . The net proceeds from the sale of the 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes were approximately $ 732 (after deducting the initial purchasers' fees and offering expenses). Upon consummation of the RSC merger, URNA assumed the 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes. The 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by Holdings and, subject to limited exceptions, URNA's domestic subsidiaries. The 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes may be redeemed on or after May 15, 2016 , at specified redemption prices that range from 103.688 percent in the 12-month period commencing on May 15, 2016 , to 100 percent in the 12-month period commencing on May 15, 2018 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The indenture governing the 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes contains certain restrictive covenants, including, among others, limitations on (1) liens; (2) additional indebtedness; (3) mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; (4) sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets; (5) loans and other investments; (6) dividends and other distributions, stock repurchases and redemptions and other restricted payments; (7) restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (8) transactions with affiliates; and (9) designations of unrestricted subsidiaries, as well as a requirement to timely file periodic reports with the SEC. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications that would allow URI to engage in these activities under certain conditions. The indenture also requires that, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture), URI must make an offer to purchase all of the then-outstanding 7 ³ / ₈ percent Notes tendered at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon.

7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Senior Notes . In March 2012 , Funding SPV issued $ 1,325 aggregate principal amount of 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Senior Notes (the “7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Notes”) which are due April 15, 2022 .

Upon consummation of the RSC merger, URNA assumed the 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Notes. The 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by Holdings and, subject to limited exceptions, URNA's domestic subsidiaries. The 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Notes may be redeemed on or after April 15, 2017 , at specified redemption prices that range from 103.813 percent in the 12-month period commencing on April 15, 2017 , to 100 percent in the 12-month period commencing on April 15, 2020 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

subsidiaries, as well as a requirement to timely file periodic reports with the SEC. Each of these covenants is subject to important exceptions and qualifications that would allow URI to engage in these activities under certain conditions. The indenture also requires that, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture), URI must make an offer to purchase all of the then-outstanding 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Notes tendered at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon.

Convertible Note Hedge Transactions

In connection with the November 2009 issuance of $173 aggregate principal amount of 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes, Holdings entered into convertible note hedge transactions with option counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions cost $26 , and decreased additional paid-in capital by $17 , net of taxes, in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit). The convertible note hedge transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, 15.1 million shares of our common stock. The convertible note hedge transactions are intended to reduce, subject to a limit, the potential dilution with respect to our common stock upon conversion of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes. The effect of the convertible note hedge transactions is to increase the effective conversion price to $15.56 per share, equal to an approximately 75 percent premium over the $8.89 closing price of our common stock at issuance. The effective conversion price is subject to change in certain circumstances, such as if the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes are converted prior to May 15, 2015 . In the event the market value of our common stock exceeds the effective conversion price per share, the settlement amount received from such transactions will only partially offset the potential dilution. For example, if, at the time of exercise of the conversion right, the price of our common stock was $35.00 or $40.00 per share, assuming an effective conversion price of $15.56 per share, on a net basis, we would issue 8.4 million or 9.2 million shares, respectively.

Loan Covenants and Compliance

As of September 30, 2012 , we were in compliance with the covenants and other provisions of the ABL facility, the accounts receivable securitization facility, the senior notes and the QUIPS. Any failure to be in compliance with any material provision or covenant of these agreements could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and operations.

In October 2011, we amended the ABL facility. In March 2012, the size of the ABL facility was increased to $1.9 billion . The only material financial covenants which currently exist relate to the fixed charge coverage ratio and the senior secured leverage ratio under the ABL facility. Since the October 2011 amendment of the ABL facility and through September 30, 2012 , availability under the ABL facility has exceeded the required threshold and, as a result, these maintenance covenants have been inapplicable. Subject to certain limited exceptions specified in the amended ABL facility, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the senior secured leverage ratio under the amended ABL facility will only apply in the future if availability under the amended ABL facility falls below the greater of 10 percent of the maximum revolver amount under the amended ABL facility and $150 . Under our accounts receivable securitization facility, we are required, among other things, to maintain certain financial tests relating to: (i) the default ratio, (ii) the delinquency ratio, (iii) the dilution ratio and (iv) days sales outstanding.

9 . Legal and Regulatory Matters

On December 28, 2011, a complaint was filed in Arizona Superior Court, captioned Israni v. RSC Holdings Inc., CV20 11-020579, on behalf of a putative class of RSC's stockholders against RSC, each member of the RSC board, certain of RSC's officers, and the Company challenging the merger. In an amended complaint, filed February 24, 2012, plaintiff alleged, among other things, that the directors and officers of RSC breached their fiduciary duties by allegedly agreeing to sell RSC at an unfair and inadequate price and by allegedly failing to take steps to maximize the sale price of RSC. The complaint also alleged that RSC and the Company aided and abetted in the directors' and officers' breach of their fiduciary duties, and that the defendants' public disclosures concerning the merger have been inaccurate or incomplete. On April 19, 2012, without agreeing that any of the claims had merit, the parties reached an agreement to settle the action, pursuant to which RSC and the Company agreed to make certain additional public disclosures regarding the merger and to pay certain attorneys' fees awarded by the court. On August 27, 2012, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement and on September 28, 2012, the settlement was approved by the court.

As previously reported, following our August 2004 announcement that the SEC had commenced a non-public, fact-finding inquiry concerning the Company, an alleged stockholder filed an action in Connecticut State Superior Court, Judicial District of Norwalk/Stamford at Stamford, purportedly suing derivatively on the Company's behalf. The action, entitled Gregory Riegel v. John N. Milne, et al., named as defendants certain of our current and/or former directors and/or officers, and named the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserted, among other things, that the defendants breached their

Table of Contents

fiduciary duties to the Company by causing or allowing the Company to disseminate misleading and inaccurate information to stockholders and the market and by failing to establish and maintain adequate accounting controls, thus exposing the Company to damages. The parties to the Riegel action agreed that the proceedings in this action would be stayed pending the resolution of the motions to dismiss in certain previously-filed purported stockholder class actions. As previously reported, those purported stockholder class actions were commenced in 2004 and were dismissed with prejudice, pursuant to a stipulation of settlement in May 2009. We previously announced on September 8, 2008 that we had also reached a final settlement with the SEC of its inquiry. On or about July 6, 2012, plaintiff withdrew this action against all defendants.

In addition to these matters and the other disclosures provided in note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed on Form 10-K on January 25, 2012, we are also subject to a number of claims and proceedings that generally arise in the ordinary conduct of our business. These matters include, but are not limited to, general liability claims (including personal injury, product liability, and property and auto claims), indemnification and guarantee obligations, employee injuries and employment-related claims, self-insurance obligations and contract and real estate matters. Based on advice of counsel and available information, including current status or stage of proceeding, and taking into account accruals for matters where we have established them, we currently believe that any liabilities ultimately resulting from these ordinary course claims and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

10 . Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 excludes the impact of approximately 1.9 million and 2.4 million common stock equivalents, respectively, since the effect of including these securities would be anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (shares in thousands):

11 . Condensed Consolidating Financial Information of Guarantor Subsidiaries

URNA is 100 percent owned by Holdings (“Parent”) and has outstanding (i) certain indebtedness that is guaranteed by Parent, (ii) certain indebtedness that is guaranteed by both Parent and, with the exception of its U.S. special purpose vehicle which holds receivable assets relating to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization (the “SPV”), all of URNA’s U.S. subsidiaries (the “guarantor subsidiaries”) and (iii) certain indebtedness that is guaranteed by the guarantor subsidiaries. However, this indebtedness is not guaranteed by URNA’s foreign subsidiaries and the SPV (together, the “non-guarantor subsidiaries”). The guarantor subsidiaries are all 100 percent -owned and the guarantees are made on a joint and several basis. The guarantees are not full and unconditional because a guarantor subsidiary can be automatically released and relieved of its obligations under certain circumstances, including sale of the subsidiary guarantor, the sale of all or substantially all of the subsidiary guarantor's assets, the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance under the applicable indenture being met or designating the subsidiary guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary for purposes of the applicable covenants. The guarantees are also subject to subordination provisions (to the same extent that the obligations of the issuer under the relevant notes are subordinated to other debt of the issuer) and to a standard limitation which provides that the maximum amount guaranteed by each guarantor will not exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed without making the guarantee void under fraudulent conveyance laws. Based on our understanding of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X ("Rule 3-10"), we believe that the guarantees of the guarantor subsidiaries comply with the conditions set forth in Rule 3-10 and therefore continue to utilize Rule 3-10 to present condensed consolidating financial information for Holdings, URNA, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries. Separate consolidated financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been presented because management believes that such information would not be material to investors. However, condensed consolidating financial information is presented. The condensed consolidating financial information of Parent and its subsidiaries is as follows:

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

Executive Overview

We are the largest equipment rental company in the world, with an integrated network of 848 rental locations in the United States and Canada. Although the equipment rental industry is highly fragmented and diverse, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of this environment because, as a larger company, we have more extensive resources and certain competitive advantages. These include a fleet of rental equipment with a total original equipment cost (“OEC”) of $ 7.4 billion , and a national branch network that operates in 48 states and every Canadian province, and serves 99 of the largest 100 metropolitan areas in the United States. In addition, our size gives us greater purchasing power, the ability to provide customers with a broader range of equipment and services, the ability to provide customers with equipment that is better maintained and therefore more productive and reliable, and the ability to enhance the earning potential of our assets by transferring equipment among branches to satisfy customer needs.

We offer approximately 3,400 classes of equipment for rent to a diverse customer base that includes construction and industrial companies, manufacturers, utilities, municipalities, homeowners and government entities. Our revenues are derived from the following sources: equipment rentals, sales of rental equipment, sales of new equipment, contractor supplies sales and service and other revenues. Equipment rentals represented 84 percent of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 .

For the past several years, we have focused on optimizing the profitability of our core rental business through revenue growth and margin expansion. To achieve this, we have developed a strategy focused on customer segmentation, rate management, fleet management and disciplined cost control. Additionally, we are continuing to strengthen our competitiveness through customer service excellence. This strategy calls for a superior standard of service to customers, often provided through a single point of contact; an increasing proportion of revenues derived from larger accounts; and a targeted presence in industrial and specialty markets.

On April 30, 2012 (“the acquisition date”), we acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares and voting interest of RSC Holdings, Inc. (“RSC”). The results of RSC's operations have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since that date. RSC was one of the largest equipment rental providers in North America, and had a network of 440 rental locations in 43 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces as of December 31, 2011 . We believe that the acquisition will create a leading North American equipment rental company with a more attractive business mix, greater scale and enhanced growth prospects, and that the acquisition will provide us with financial benefits including reduced operating expenses and additional revenue opportunities. For additional information concerning the RSC acquisition, see note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , year over year, our rental rates increased 7.3 percent and the volume of OEC on rent increased 56.9 percent, which we believe reflects, in addition to the impact of the RSC acquisition, modest improvements in our operating environment and a secular shift from ownership to the rental of construction-related equipment. Although there is no certainty that these trends will continue, we believe that our strategy will strengthen our leadership position in a recovery.

(1)	This reflects transaction costs associated with the acquisition of RSC discussed in note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.


(2)	This reflects the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in the RSC acquisition.


(3)	This reflects the impact of extending the useful lives of equipment acquired in the RSC acquisition, net of the impact of additional depreciation associated with the fair value mark-up of such equipment.


(4)	This reflects additional costs recorded in cost of rental equipment sales, cost of equipment rentals, excluding depreciation, and cost of contractor supplies sales associated with the fair value mark-up of rental equipment and inventory acquired in the RSC acquisition. The costs relate to equipment and inventory acquired in the RSC acquisition and sold in the periods indicated.


(5)	As discussed in note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, in March 2012 , we issued $ 2,825 of debt in connection with the RSC merger. The pre-close RSC merger related interest expense reflects the interest expense recorded on this debt prior to the acquisition date.


(6)	This reflects a reduction of interest expense associated with the fair value mark-up of debt acquired in the RSC acquisition. See note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional detail on the acquired debt.


(7)	As discussed below (see “Restructuring charge”), this primarily reflects severance costs and branch closure charges associated with the RSC merger.


(8)	This charge primarily reflects write-offs of leasehold improvements and other fixed assets.

(9)	This reflects a gain recognized upon the sale of a former subsidiary that developed and marketed software.

In addition to the matters discussed above, our 2012 performance reflects increased gross profit from equipment rentals and sales of rental equipment. The three months ended September 30, 2012 also includes a $4 benefit related to the settlement of a Canadian tax matter, after which, and with consideration to other tax items, the effective tax rate was 22.3 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2012 .

EBITDA GAAP Reconciliations. EBITDA represents the sum of net income, loss from discontinued operation, net of taxes, provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, interest expense-subordinated convertible debentures, depreciation of rental equipment and non-rental depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the sum of the RSC merger related costs, restructuring charge, stock compensation expense, net, the impact of the fair value mark-up of the acquired RSC fleet and inventory, and the gain on sale of software subsidiary. These items are excluded from adjusted EBITDA internally when evaluating our operating performance and allow investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our core business operating results over different periods of time, as well as with those of other similar companies. Management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period growth, and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our core business without regard to potential distortions. Additionally, management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA permit investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. However, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operating activities as indicators of operating performance or liquidity.

Results of Operations

As discussed in note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, our reportable segments are general rentals and trench safety, power and HVAC (“heating, ventilating and air conditioning”). The general rentals segment includes the rental of construction, aerial, industrial and homeowner equipment and related services and activities. The general rentals segment’s customers include construction and industrial companies, manufacturers, utilities, municipalities, homeowners and government entities. The general rentals segment operates throughout the United States and Canada. The trench safety, power and HVAC segment includes the rental of equipment for underground construction, temporary power, climate control and disaster recovery, and related services such as training. The trench safety, power and HVAC segment’s customers include construction companies involved in infrastructure projects, municipalities and industrial companies. The trench safety, power and HVAC segment operates throughout the United States and in Canada.

As discussed in note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we aggregate our 12 geographic regions—Eastern Canada, Gulf South, Industrial (which serves the geographic Gulf region and has a strong industrial presence), Mid-Atlantic, Mid-Central, Midwest, Mountain West, Northeast, Northwest, South, Southeast and Southwest—into our general rentals reporting segment. Historically, there have been variances in the levels of equipment rentals gross margins achieved by these regions. For instance, for the five year period ended September 30, 2012 , certain of our regions had equipment rentals gross margins that varied by between 10 percent and 24 percent from the equipment rentals gross margins of the aggregated general rentals' regions over the same period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the aggregate general rentals' equipment rentals gross margin increased 6.9 percentage points to 38.0 percent, primarily reflecting increased rental rates, a 0.3 percentage point increase in time utilization, which is calculated by dividing the amount of time equipment is on rent by the amount of time we have owned the equipment, and cost improvements. As compared to the equipment rentals revenue increase of 56.9 percent, aggregate repairs and maintenance and delivery costs increased 37.9 percent due primarily to high er rental volume, compensation costs increased 38.0 percent due primarily to increased headcount associated with higher rental volume and the RSC acquisition, building and property costs increased 24.4 percent due primarily to the impact of the RSC acquisition and insurance decreased 1.5 percent due primarily to improvements in our claims experience as we continue to focus on customer, driver and employee safety. The revenue and cost increases all reflect the impact of the RSC acquisition since the April 30, 2012 acquisition date. Our equipment rental revenue increased more than our costs because rates—which were a significant driver of the year-over-year revenue improvement—result in fewer variable costs compared to utilization.

For the five year period ended September 30, 2012 , the general rentals' region with the lowest equipment rentals gross margin was the Southeast . The Southeast region's equipment rentals gross margin of 26.4 percent for the five year period ended September 30, 2012 was 24 percent less than the equipment rentals gross margins of the aggregated general rentals' regions over the same period. The Southeast region's equipment rentals gross margin was less than the other general rentals' regions during this period as it experienced more significant declines in its end markets than the other regions, which led to more competitive pricing pressure and lower fleet investment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the Southeast region's equipment rentals gross marg in increased 7.1 percentage points to 33.9 percent, primarily reflecting a 5.7 percent rental rate increase and cost improvements, partially offset by a 0.9 percentage point decrease in time utilization. As compared to equipment rentals revenue, which increased 46.1 percent, aggregate repairs and maintenance and delivery costs increased 24.9 percent due primarily to higher rental volume, compensation costs increased 34.5 percent, and building and property costs increased 21.0 percent. Rental rate changes are calculated based on the year over year variance in average contract rates, weighted by the prior period revenue mix. Rental rate calculations are only available on a pro forma basis (that is, including the results of operations of RSC for all periods presented).

For the five year period ended September 30, 2012 , the general rentals' region with the highest equipment rentals gross margin was the Northwest . The Northwest region's equipment rentals gross margin of 37.4 percent for the five year period ended September 30, 2012 was 11 percent more than the equipment rentals gross margins of the aggregated general rentals' regions over the same period. The Northwest region's equipment rentals gross margin was more than the other general rentals' regions during this period as its end markets were more stable than the other regions, which resulted in stronger pricing. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the Northwest region's equipment renta ls gross margin increased 7.8 percentage points to 42.9 percent, primarily reflecting a 6.9 percent rental rate increase, cost improvements and a 1.0 percentage point increase in time utilization. As compared to equipment rentals revenue, which increased 38.1 percent, aggregate repairs and maintenance and delivery costs increased 23.1 percent due primarily to higher rental volume, compensation costs increased 26.0 per cent, and building and property costs increased 9.6 percent. Additionally, the Northwest region's 2012 equipment rentals gross margin

Table of Contents

increased due to a reduction in lower margin re-rent revenue (equipment we rent from other companies and then rent to customers).

Although the margins for certain of our general rentals' regions exceeded a 10 percent variance level for the five year period ended September 30, 2012 , we expect convergence going forward given management's focus on cost cutting, improved processes and fleet sharing. Although we believe aggregating these regions into our general rentals reporting segment for segment reporting purposes is appropriate, to the extent that the margin variances persist and the equipment rentals gross margins do not converge, we may be required to disaggregate the regions into separate reporting segments. Any such disaggregation would have no impact on our consolidated results of operations.

These segments align our external segment reporting with how management evaluates and allocates resources. We evaluate segment performance based on segment equipment rentals gross profit. Our revenues, operating results, and financial condition fluctuate from quarter to quarter reflecting the seasonal rental patterns of our customers, with rental activity tending to be lower in the winter.

Equipment rentals . For the three months ended September 30, 2012 , equipment rentals of $ 1,051 increased $ 447 , or 74.0 percent, as compared to the same period in 2011, pri marily reflecting a 79.7 percent increase in the volume of OEC on rent and a 7.5 percent rental rate increase, partially offset by changes in rental mix. There are two components of rental mix that impact equipment rentals: 1) the type of equipment rented and 2) the duration of the rental contract (daily, weekly and monthly). In

Table of Contents

2012, we increased the portion of equipment rentals from monthly rental contracts, which results in equipment rentals increasing at a lesser rate than the volume of OEC on rent, but produces higher margins as there are less transaction costs. As discussed above, we acquired RSC on April 30, 2012 , and the results of RSC's operations have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since that date. The impact of the RSC acquisition on equipment rentals is primarily reflected in the increase in the volume of OEC on rent. Equipment rentals represented 86 percent of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 . On a segment basis, equipment rentals represented 86 percent and 91 percent of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 for general rentals and trench safety, power and HVAC, respectively. General rentals equipment rentals increased $ 431 , or 79.8 percent, prima rily reflecting an 81.0 percent increase in the volume of OEC on rent and increased rental rates, partially offset by an increase in the portion of equipment rentals from monthly rental contracts, which results in equipment rentals increasing at a lesser rate than the volume of OEC on rent. Trench safety, power and HVAC equipment rentals increased $ 16 , or 25.0 percent, primarily reflecting an increase in the volume of OEC on rent. Trench safety, power and HVAC average OEC for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased 41 percent as compared to the same period in 2011. Capitalizing on the demand for the higher margin equipment rented by our trench safety, power and HVAC segment has been a key component of our strategy in 2012 and 2011. The trench safety, power and HVAC equipment rentals growth was less than the increase in average OEC primarily due to OEC mix, as a significant portion of the OEC growth was in product lines that generate less revenue per OEC dollar, such as power and HVAC equipment.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , equipment rentals of $ 2,419 increased $ 857 , or 54.9 percent, as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily reflecting a 56.9 percent increase in the volume of OEC on rent and a 7.3 percent rental rate increase, partially offset by an increase in the portion of equipment rentals from monthly rental contracts. Equipment rentals represented 84 percent of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 . On a segment basis, equipment rentals represented 84 percent and 90 percent of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 for general rentals and trench safety, power and HVAC, respectively. General rentals equipment rentals increased $ 808 , or 56.9 percent, primarily reflecting a 56.8 percent increase in the volume of OEC on rent and increased rental rates, partially offset by an increase in the portion of equipment rentals from monthly rental contracts. Trench sa fety, power and HVAC equipment rentals increased $ 49 , or 34.3 percent, primarily reflecting an increase in the volume of OEC on rent. Trench safety, power and HVAC average OEC for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased 54 percent as compared to the same period in 2011. The trench safety, power and HVAC equipment rentals growth was less than the increase in average OEC primarily due to OEC mix, as a significant portion of the OEC growth was in product lines that generate less revenue per OEC dollar, such as power and HVAC equipment.

We believe that the rate and volume improvements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflect, in addition to the impact of the RSC acquisition, a modest improvement in our operating environment and a shift from customer ownership to the rental of construction equipment. As discussed above, the results of RSC's operations have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since the April 30, 2012 acquisition date. The RSC acquisition contributed to the volume improvements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 . The total OEC of our fleet of rental equipment was $ 7.4 billion , including the acquired RSC fleet, as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $4.0 billion as of December 31, 2011.

Sales of rental equipment . For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , sales of rental equipment represented approximately 9 percent of our total revenues. Our general rentals segment accounted for substantially all of these sales. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , sales of rental equipment increased 140.5 percent and 124.3 percent, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2011, primarily reflecting increased volume and improved pricing in a stronger retail market and the impact of the RSC acquisition. The increased sales also reflect management of our fleet size and mix in anticipation of increased rental capital expenditures in 2012. For the full year 2012, we expect gross rental capital expenditures of between $ 1.3 billion and $ 1.4 billion.

Sales of new equipment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , sales of new equipment represented approximately 2 percent of our total revenues. Our general rentals segment accounted for substantially all of these sales. Sales of new equipment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 didn't change significantly from the same periods in 2011.

Contractor supplies sales. Contractor supplies sales represent our revenues associated with selling a variety of supplies, including construction consumables, tools, small equipment and safety supplies. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , contractor supplies sales represented approximately 2 percent of our total revenues. Our general rentals segment accounted for substantially all of these sales. Contractor supplies sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 didn't change significantly from the same periods in 2011.

Service and other revenues . Service and other revenues primarily represent our revenues earned from providing repair and maintenance services (including parts sales). For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , service and other revenues

Table of Contents

represented approximately 2 percent of our total revenues. Our general rentals segment accounted for substantially all of these sales. Service and other revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 didn't change significantly from the same periods in 2011.

Additionally, travel and entertainment and office expenses have increased following the RSC acquisition. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A decreased 1.6 percentage points year over year.

RSC merger related costs. As discussed above, in the second quarter of 2012, we completed the acquisition of RSC. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 include acquisition-related costs of $8 and $98 , respectively, primarily related to financial and legal advisory fees. The fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 include $31 of interim bridge financing costs.

Restructuring charge. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the restructuring charges of $40 and $93 , respectively, primarily reflect severance costs and branch closure charges associated with the RSC merger. The branch closure charges primarily reflect continuing lease obligations at vacant facilities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the restructuring charges of $2 and $5 , respectively, primarily reflected branch closure charges due to continuing lease obligations at vacant facilities. We expect to incur an additional $10 to $30 of charges in connection with the restructuring, which is expected to be substantially complete by March 31, 2013 .

Non-rental depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Non-rental depreciation and amortization	$	71	$	13	$	134	$	39

Non-rental depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $58 , or 446 percent, and $95 , or 244 percent, respectively, as compared to 2011. Non-rental depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased primarily due to the 2012 acquisition of RSC discussed in note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest expense, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Interest expense, net	$	127	$	57	$	316	$	170

Interest expense, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $ 70 , or 123 percent, and $146 , or 86 percent, respectively, as compared to 2011. As discussed in note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, in March 2012 , we issued $2,825 of debt ("the merger financing notes") in connection with the RSC acquisition. Upon completion of the RSC acquisition, we also assumed RSC's debt that remained after repayment of certain of RSC's senior debt. Interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes $29 of interest recorded on the merger financing notes prior to the closing of the merger. Interest expense, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased primarily due to increased average outstanding debt, including the debt issued and assumed in connection with the RSC acquisition, as compared to 2011.

Other expense (income), net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012			2011
Other expense (income), net	$	—	$	2	$	(13	)	$	(2	)

The increase in other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily reflects a $10 gain recognized

Income taxes. The following table summarizes our continuing operations provision for income taxes and the related effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011
Income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes	$	94		$	96		$	49		$	108
Provision for income taxes	21			31			15			35
Effective tax rate	22.3		%	32.3		%	30.6		%	32.4		%

The differences between the 2012 and 2011 effective tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent primarily relate to the geographical mix of income between foreign and domestic operations, as well as the impact of state and local taxes, and certain nondeductible charges. Additionally, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 include a $4 benefit related to the settlement of a Canadian tax matter, and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes a deferred tax charge of $7 related to the RSC acquisition.

Balance sheet. The increases in our balance sheet from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 primarily reflect the impact of the RSC acquisition. See note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of the estimated fair values of the RSC assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Capital Markets Activity. We manage our liquidity using internal cash management practices, which are subject to (i) the policies and cooperation of the financial institutions we utilize to maintain and provide cash management services, (ii) the terms and other requirements of the agreements to which we are a party and (iii) the statutes, regulations and practices of each of the local jurisdictions in which we operate.

As discussed in note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, in March 2012 , in connection with the RSC acquisition, we issued $750 aggregate principal amount of 5 ³ / ₄ percent Senior Secured Notes due 2018, $750 aggregate principal amount of 7 ³ / ₈ percent Senior Notes due 2020 and $1,325 aggregate principal amount of 7 ⁵ / ₈ percent Senior Notes due 2022. In March 2012, the size of the ABL facility was increased to $1.9 billion . Additionally, as discussed in note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, upon completion of the RSC acquisition in April 2012, we assumed RSC's debt that remained after repayment of certain of RSC's senior debt.

As previously announced, in connection with the RSC acquisition, our Board authorized a stock buyback of up to $200 of Holdings' common stock. As of October 12, 2012 , we have repurchased $ 112 of Holdings' common stock and our intent is to complete the stock buyback within 18 months after the April 30, 2012 closing of the RSC acquisition.

As discussed in note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, in September 2012 , we amended our accounts receivable securitization facility. The amended facility became effective on September 24, 2012 and expires on September 23, 2013 . The amended facility may be extended on a 364 -day basis by mutual agreement of the Company and the purchasers under the facility, and includes an increase in the facility size from $ 300 to $ 475 .

Our principal existing sources of cash are cash generated from operations and from the sale of rental equipment and borrowings available under our ABL facility and accounts receivable securitization facility. As of September 30, 2012 , we had (i) $ 683 of borrowing capacity, net of $ 80 of letters of credit, available under the ABL facility, (ii) $ 0 of borrowing capacity available under the accounts receivable securitization facility and (iii) cash and cash equivalents of $ 68 . Cash equivalents at September 30, 2012 consist of direct obligations of financial institutions rated A or better. We believe that our existing sources of cash will be sufficient to support our existing operations over the next 12 months.

As of September 30, 2012 , $ 1,137 and $475 were outstanding under the ABL facility and the accounts receivable securitization facility, respectively. The interest rates applicable to the ABL facility and the accounts receivable securitization facility at September 30, 2012 were 2.3 percent and 0.8 percent , respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the monthly average amounts outstanding under the ABL facility and the accounts receivable securitization facility, including the former facility and the amended facility, were $1,105 and $265 , respectively, and the weighted-average interest rates thereon were 2.3 percent and 0.9 percent , respectively. The maximum month-end amounts outstanding under the ABL facility and the accounts receivable securitization facility, including the former facility and the amended facility, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $1,287 and $475 , respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , the maximum amount outstanding under the accounts receivable securitization facility exceeded the average amount outstanding

Table of Contents

primarily due to additional borrowings following the increase in the facility size discussed above. The accounts receivable securitization facility interest rate was lower than the ABL facility interest rate, and we utilized the additional borrowing capacity available under the amended accounts receivable securitization facility to lower our borrowing costs.

We expect that our principal needs for cash relating to our operations over the next 12 months will be to fund (i) operating activities and working capital, (ii) the purchase of rental equipment and inventory items offered for sale, (iii) payments due under operating leases, (iv) debt service, and (v) acquisitions. We plan to fund such cash requirements from our existing sources of cash. In addition, we may seek additional financing through the securitization of some of our real estate, the use of additional operating leases or other financing sources as market conditions permit.

To access the capital markets, we rely on credit rating agencies to assign ratings to our securities as an indicator of credit quality. Lower credit ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to debt capital markets. Credit ratings also affect the costs of derivative transactions, including interest rate and foreign currency derivative transactions. As a result, negative changes in our credit ratings could adversely impact our costs of funding. Our credit ratings as of October 12, 2012 were as follows:



	Corporate Rating	Outlook
Moody’s	B2	Stable
Standard & Poor’s	B+	Stable
Fitch	B	Stable

A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. There is no assurance that any rating will remain in effect for a given period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future.

The amount of our future capital expenditures will depend on a number of factors, including general economic conditions and growth prospects. Our gross and net rental capital expenditures have increased significantly in 2012 relative to 2011. Net rental capital expenditures (defined as purchases of rental equipment less the proceeds from sales of rental equipment) were $ 851 and $ 516 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the full year 2012, we expect net rental capital expenditures of between $ 925 and $ 975 , after gross purchases of between $ 1.3 billion and $ 1.4 billion. We expect that we will fund such expenditures from cash generated from operations, proceeds from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment and, if required, borrowings available under the ABL facility and accounts receivable securitization facility.

Loan Covenants and Compliance. As of September 30, 2012 , we were in compliance with the covenants and other provisions of the ABL facility, the accounts receivable securitization facility, the senior notes and the QUIPS. Any failure to be in compliance with any material provision or covenant of these agreements could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and operations.

As of September 30, 2012 , primarily due to losses sustained in prior years, URNA had limited restricted payment capacity under the most restrictive restricted payment covenants in the indentures governing its outstanding indebtedness. Although this limited capacity restricts our ability to move operating cash flows to Holdings, we do not expect any material adverse impact on Holdings’ ability to meet its cash obligations due to certain intercompany arrangements.

Sources and Uses of Cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 , we (i) generated cash from operating activities of $ 495 , (ii) generated cash from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment of $ 284 and (iii) received cash from debt proceeds, net of payments, of $ 1,784 , including $2,825 of proceeds from debt issuances associated with the RSC acquisition, a portion of which was used to repay certain of RSC's senior debt. We used cash during this period principally to (i) purchase rental and non-rental equipment of $ 1,185 , (ii) purchase other companies for $ 1,175 , (iii) purchase shares of our common stock for $128 and (iv) pay financing costs of $67 . During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 , we (i) generated cash from operating activities of $ 453 , (ii) generated cash from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment of $ 126 and (iii) received cash from debt proceeds, net of payments, of $79 . We used cash during this period principally to (i) purchase rental and non-rental equipment of $ 655 and (ii) purchase other companies for $ 198 .

Free Cash Flow GAAP Reconciliation. We define “free cash (usage) flow” as (i) net cash provided by operating activities less (ii) purchases of rental and non-rental equipment plus (iii) proceeds from sales of rental and non-rental equipment and excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements, net. Management believes that free cash flow provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements. However, free cash (usage) flow is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. Accordingly, free cash (usage) flow should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity. The table below provides a reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities and free cash (usage) flow.



	Nine Months Ended
	September 30,
	2012			2011
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	495		$	453
Purchases of rental equipment	(1,109		)	(631		)
Purchases of non-rental equipment	(76		)	(24		)
Proceeds from sales of rental equipment	258			115
Proceeds from sales of non-rental equipment	26			11
Excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements, net	(4		)	—
Free cash usage	$	(410	)	$	(76	)

Free cash usage for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $ 410 , an increase of $ 334 as compared to $ 76 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 . Free cash usage increased primarily due to increased purchases of rental equipment, partially offset by increased proceeds from sales of rental equipment. Free cash usage for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes the impact of the RSC merger costs discussed above.

Certain Information Concerning Contractual Obligations . The table below provides certain information concerning the payments coming due under certain categories of our existing contractual obligations as of September 30, 2012 :

Relationship between Holdings and URNA. Holdings is principally a holding company and primarily conducts its operations through its wholly owned subsidiary, URNA, and subsidiaries of URNA. Holdings licenses its tradename and other intangibles and provides certain services to URNA in connection with its operations. These services principally include: (i) senior management services; (ii) finance and tax-related services and support; (iii) information technology systems and support; (iv) acquisition-related services; (v) legal services; and (vi) human resource support. In addition, Holdings leases certain equipment and real property that are made available for use by URNA and its subsidiaries.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk primarily consists of (i) interest rate risk associated with our variable and fixed rate debt, (ii) foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our Canadian operations and (iii) equity price risk associated with our convertible debt.

Interest Rate Risk. As of September 30, 2012 , we had an aggregate of $ 1,612 of indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates, comprised of $ 1,137 of borrowings under the ABL facility and $475 of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility. The amount of variable rate indebtedness outstanding under the ABL facility and accounts receivable securitization facility may fluctuate significantly. The interest rates applicable to our variable rate debt on September 30, 2012 were 2.3 percent for the ABL facility and 0.8 percent for the accounts receivable securitization facility. As of September 30, 2012 , based upon the amount of our variable rate debt outstanding, our annual after-tax earnings would decrease by approximately $ 6 for each one percentage point increase in the interest rates applicable to our variable rate debt.

At September 30, 2012 , we had an aggregate of $ 5.8 billion of indebtedness that bears interest at fixed rates, including our subordinated convertible debentures. A one percentage point decrease in market interest rates as of September 30, 2012 would increase the fair value of our fixed rate indebtedness by approximately six percent . For additional information concerning the fair value of our fixed rate debt, see note 7 (see “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”) to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Currency Exchange Risk . The functional currency for our Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. As a result, our future earnings could be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollars. Based upon the level of our Canadian operations during 2011 relative to the Company as a whole, a 10 percent change in this exchange rate would cause our annual after-tax earnings to change by approximately $6. We do not engage in purchasing forward exchange contracts for speculative purposes.

Equity Price Risk . In connection with the November 2009 4 percent Convertible Notes offering, Holdings entered into convertible note hedge transactions with option counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions cost $26, and decreased additional paid-in capital by $17, net of taxes, in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit). The convertible note hedge transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, 15.1 million shares of our common stock. The convertible note hedge transactions are intended to reduce, subject to a limit, the potential dilution with respect to our common stock upon conversion of the 4 percent Convertible Notes. The effect of the convertible note hedge transactions is to increase the effective conversion price to $15.56 per share, equal to an approximately 75 percent premium over the $8.89 closing price of our common stock at issuance. The effective conversion price is subject to change in certain circumstances, such as if the 4 percent Convertible Notes are converted prior to May 15, 2015. In the event the market value of our common stock exceeds the effective conversion price per share, the settlement amount received from such transactions will only partially offset the potential dilution. For example, if, at the time of exercise of the conversion right, the price of our common stock was $ 35.00 or $ 40.00 per share, assuming an effective conversion price of $15.56 per share, on a net basis, we would issue 8.4 million or 9.2 million shares, respectively. Based on the price of our common stock during the third quarter of 2012, holders of the 4 percent Convertible Notes have the right to redeem the notes during the fourth quarter of 2012 at a conversion price of $11.11 per share of common stock. Between October 1, 2012 (the beginning of the fourth quarter) and October 12, 2012 , none of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were redeemed.

If the total $168 outstanding principal amount of the 4 percent Convertible Notes was converted, the total cost to settle the notes would be $494 , assuming a conversion price of $32.71 (the closing price of our common stock on September 30, 2012 ) per share of common stock. The $168 principal amount would be settled in cash, and the remaining $326 could be settled in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our discretion. Based on the September 30, 2012 closing stock price, approximately 10 million shares of stock, excluding any stock we would receive from the hedge counterparties as discussed below, would be issued if we settled the entire $326 of conversion value in excess of the principal amount in stock. The total cost to settle would change approximately $ 15 for each $1 (actual dollars) change in our stock price. If the full principal amount was converted at our September 30, 2012 closing stock price, we estimate that we would receive approximately $ 45 in either cash or stock from the hedge counterparties, after which the effective conversion price would be approximately $14.11 . Additionally, $5 principal amount of our 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Notes was outstanding at September 30, 2012 . If the total $5 outstanding principal amount of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Notes was converted, the total cost to settle the notes would be $7 , assuming a conversion price of $32.71 (the closing price of our common stock on September 30, 2012 ) per share of common stock. The total cost to settle would change by less than $1 for each $1 (actual dollars) change in our stock price. Based on the price of our common stock, holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes had the right to convert the notes during the second and third quarters of 2012 at a conversion price of $21.83 per share of common stock, and $17 of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were converted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 . Upon conversion of the notes, we issued approximately 0.8 million shares of our

Table of Contents

common stock to the applicable holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes. Based on the price of our common stock during the third quarter of 2012, holders of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes may convert the notes during the fourth quarter of 2012 at a conversion price of $21.83 per share of common stock. Between October 1, 2012 (the beginning of the fourth quarter) and October 12, 2012 , none of the 1 ⁷ / 8 percent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were converted.
