Hertz Slashes Refueling Prices: Pay Pump Prices or Less; No Need to Worry About Refilling the Tank

PARK RIDGE, NJ, Jun 10 (MARKET WIRE) --
Hertz (NYSE: HTZ), the number one airport car rental brand in the U.S., today
announced the launch of an innovative Refueling Program that provides travelers
with
valuable time and dollar savings while on the road and eliminates a key "hassle
factor" associated with car rentals.

Under the new program -- which goes into effect for rentals commencing July
1,
2008 at all corporate and participating licensee airport and off-airport
locations in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas -- both the
Hertz Fuel & Service Charge (FSC) and the Fuel Purchase Option (FPO) will
reflect new, lower pricing bases upon the average price per gallon as set by
the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS) in the geographical area where the
car is rented. The Hertz FSC -- for customers who don't refill the fuel tank
before returning the rental vehicle and elect the option of then having Hertz
refuel the vehicle -- will be based upon local market fuel prices, plus a
one-time Refueling Fee of $6.99. The FPO -- for customers who elect the
option to purchase a tank of gas at the outset of the rental -- will reflect
local market fuel prices minus a small discount of approximately $0.15 per
gallon.

"Our research indicates that rental car clients want a speedier, more
efficient return process that eliminates time-consuming and costly refueling
procedures," said Mark P. Frissora, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for The
Hertz Corporation. "By revamping our refueling program to reflect market-rate
prices, we've made it immeasurably easier for customers to return their rental
car quickly and without the hassle of making a time-consuming trip to refuel
the car prior to return."

By bringing its refueling rates in line with local pricing, Hertz is
removing the "hassle factor" from the rental car return process, eliminating
time-consuming cost calculations and stops to refill prior to return. The
new policy ensures Hertz customers won't pay more than local refueling rates,
streamlining the return process.

Hertz's FSC and FPO rates are based on geographical averages as determined
by OPIS
and will be adjusted weekly by local management to reflect local OPIS pricing.

Customers retain the option of refueling themselves and returning the rental
vehicle with at least as much fuel as was in the vehicle when it was rented.
However, many customers do not have the time or are not able to locate a
service station before they return to the rental location.

The Hertz Corporation, a subsidiary of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:
HTZ), is the world's largest general use car rental brand, operating from
approximately 8,100 locations in 147 countries worldwide. Hertz is the number
