    Enterpr ise Holdings

    To Our Stakeholders:

    As Enterprise Holdings newly appointed CEO, Im pleased to introduce our companys 2013 Sustainability Report. Our third

    annual report covers our performance and selected activities for the fiscal year (ended July 31, 2013).

    Enterprise has grown and changed a great deal since our founding as a humble start-up nearly 60 years ago. Weve experiencedquite a transformation in the past seven years alone growing from one car-rental brand to three and expanding the reach of

    our unsurpassed neighborhood and airport network. Today, we have operations in more than 50 countries and territories around

    the world. But for all that might have changed, our approach to doing business remains the same: We take the long-term view

    and consistently and conservatively invest in our future.

    For us, sustainability is a key driver of business results, helping customers, employees and communities move forward. Here

    are just a few examples:

    Three years into our companywide 20/20 Vision initiative, we continued to achieve reductions in energy use and carbon

    emissions across our North American facilities. This represents a commitment we plan to extend globally in the future.

    Through our ongoing partnership with the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, we advanced the case for biofuels as a

    potential alternative to petroleum-based fuel.

    As part of our military recruitment efforts, we hired more than 1,600 U.S. military veterans and reservists through the 100,000

    Jobs Mission and Joining Forces Travel Industry Coalition.

    Through our continued commitment to customer service, our brands swept the top three rankings in the J.D. Power and

    Associates Rental Car Satisfaction Survey, reflective our strong, continuous commitment to best-in-class customer service.

    As our global network continues to expand, we remain committed to pursuing The Enterprise Way and to a more sustainable

    future. Thank you for taking the time to review the progress weve made over the past year.

    VALUES-DRIVENCulture

    Enterprise has grown and thrived for nearly

    60 years, thanks in large part to our unique

    company culture. Each of our 8,100 rental

    locations around the world shares a single

    approach to business set forth in our FoundingValues. Since its launch, the Founding Values

    program has driven thousands of best

    practices that have helped us strengthen our

    sustainable management approach.

    Our employees are cal led on to l ive

    the Founding Values daily through their

    interactions with customers, vendors and

    community partners. And our operating groups

    recommit to these principles each year by

    setting specific goals and detailed strategies

    to achieve them. These strategies address the

    six key business areas that form the points of

    our Cultural Compass: Operations, Diversity

    and Inclusion, Work Life Quality, Business

    Ethics, Public Affairs and Philanthropy, and

    Environmental Conservation.

    A Sustainable Business ApproachThe driving force behind Enterprises sustainability strategy is our Chairmans Task Force. This diversegroup of department heads and subject matter experts is charged with identifying risks facing our

    industry as well as the opportunities that must be seized to secure our continued success.

    Stakeholder EngagementThis report serves as an example of our approach to

    stakeholders. We welcome input from groups and

    individuals who share our interest in meeting presentand future transit needs. These stakeholders include:

    Consumers Through our monthly Enterprise, National

    and Alamo service quality index surveys, we constantly

    keep our finger on the pulse of what matters most.

    In addition, we have established online customer

    communities to test brand initiatives and concerns.

    Employees Our company intranet, The Hub, provides a

    portal for employees to contribute ideas and observations

    about processes and priorities. In addition, our specializedBranch Energy Number (BEN) database serves as a

    central collection point for energy management data

    contributed by employee groups and individual branches.

    NGOs By taking an active role in organizations that

    unite industry, government and academia, we gain and

    contribute valuable knowledge and perspectives that can

    help advance the concept and practice of sustainable

    mobility. For more information, see page 9.

    Manufacturers and Suppliers Enterprise plays a

    unique role in the automotive value chain. We work

    with automotive manufacturers upstream on vehicle

    innovations and with suppliers and customers downstream

    on the real-world adoption of sustainable solutions.

    Partners Enterprise works closely with our major

    accounts including large corporations, insurance

    companies and travel agencies to better understand and

    serve commercial needs in the global marketplace.

    Personal honestyand integrity arethe foundation of

    INNOVATIONAs a critical link in the automotive value chain, were uniquely positioned to foster innovation, advance

    research and test market-driven solutions. As we continue the global expansion of our neighborhood

    network, were strengthening our ability to bring new automotive technologies and mobility options to

    the worlds driving public.

    Local MobilityWe own and operate the worlds largest fleet. And we serve customers through an unparalleled

    global neighborhood network of 8,100 locations. That gives us an unequaled ability to deliver service

    innovations and technologies that help foster sustainable transportation. The impact of our neighborhood

    network on the future of sustainable transit is most clearly seen among booming urban populations,

    where car rental whether for a week, a day or an hour plays an increasingly important role. In this

    environment, our unrivaled scale, local accessibility and cost-effectiveness offer consumers, businesses

    and governments unmatched flexibility in meeting their mobility needs.

    Exploring the FutureShaping tomorrows mobility solutions starts with a clear understanding of the current state and direction

    of urban transit. Thats why Enterprise sponsored and collaborated on a milestone research project

    with the Initiative for Global Environmental Leadership (IGEL). The report, titled Next Stop, Innovation:

    Whats Ahead for Urban Mobility?, provided an update on how cities are expanding their options for

    cleaner transportation.

    Car sharing, for example, is gaining significant traction, as an estimated 1.7 million people in27 countries worldwide participate in formalized car-sharing programs and membership continues to

    increase. Ridesharing, also known as vanpooling which peaked in the United States during the 1970s

    and 1980s is making a comeback, fueled by cost-savings, employer incentives and traffic congestion.

    The IGEL study also concluded that, while government regulation plays a major role in shaping efficient

    systems and driving the early development of new technologies, the success of environmentally friendly

    transportation options ultimately hinges on satisfying consumers needs and economic goals.

    Ensuring that automobiletravel remains a vital mode oftransportation far into the future

    is central to the success of ourbusiness and to the millionsof people around the worldwhose livelihoods and lifestylesdepend upon it. To that end, wetake an integrated approach tosustainability. From our rental fleet

    and the fuels that power it, to ouroperations and the technologieswe deploy and support, we workto drive innovation and reduceour impact on the environment.

    Enterprise ReducesMunicipal Fleet Size, Costs

    Enterprise CarShare has helped companies and municipal

    governments reduce their fleets, subsequently reducingcosts and improving environmental outcomes.

    In the United Kingdom, the City of York Council

    implemented an Enterprise CarShare program as part of a

    plan to reduce reliance on employee-owned cars used for

    official business. The program not only led to a 26 percent

    reduction in miles traveled, it helped curtail carbon

    emissions by reducing the use of employees aging

    vehicles, which were on average six to seven years old.

    In Loveland, Colo., Enterprise CarShare introduced

    a technology-driven solution that allowed municipal

    employees to reserve a vehicle as little as 15 minutes

    before pickup through a secure, custom online portal.

    The efficient vehicle sharing system has allowed some

    departments to reduce the number of staff vehicles by half,

    while maintaining the same level of availability and ease of

    access. The program has reduced overhead, maintenance

    and insurance expenses, and is estimated to save the city

    $300,000 over three years.

    Car SharingEnterprise CarShareis a natural extension of our

    neighborhood network putting vehicles right where

    our customers need them and making them availablearound the clock.

    Enterprise offers hybrid, electric and fuel-efficient

    vehicles and delivers speed, economy and flexibility

    to businesses, universities and government entities

    looking to enhance their fleet management operations

    and sustainability initiatives. For individuals, car sharing

    can replace or supplement automobile ownership and

    provide as-needed access to vehicles suitable for

    specific tasks.

    VanpoolingEnterprise also fuels sustainable mobility through

    our Rideshare vanpool program, a cost-effective and

    efficient way for people to commute to and from work.

    In a typical Enterprise Rideshareprogram, seven to 15

    co-workers commute together and each pays a low

    monthly rate. But, thanks to the backing of the local

    Enterprise neighborhood network, Rideshare goes

    beyond simple carpooling to offer participants guaranteed rides home should something unexpectedarise. By taking cars off the road, Enterprise Rideshare reduces traffic congestion, commuter times and

    driving costs, as well as vehicle emissions and fuel consumption.

    ZimrideEarlier this year, Enterprise acquired Zimride, an online ride-matching service that efficiently connects

    drivers and passengers, and complements our CarShare and Rideshare programs. Zimride also partners

    with colleges and universities to facilitate sustainable transportation-management solutions.

    ENVIRONMENTALStewardship

    The most recentcar-sharing research

    underscores forurban planners, elected

    officials and othervisionary leaders why transportationneeds to not only be

    environmentally, but

    also operationally andfinancially, sustainable

    in the communitieswe all serve.

    Robotic laboratoryautomation systems enablescientists at the EnterpriseRent-A-Car Institute forRenewable Fuels to perform200,000 experimentsper week, revolutionizingthe biofuel researchprocess and accelerating

    the pace of discovery.

    Enterprises fleet is not only the worlds largest, its also one of the most fuel efficient. Approximately 57.3 percent of our

    vehicles average a highway fuel efficiency rating of at least 28 mpg, and 28 percent of our vehicles average 32 mpg or better.

    Were investing to provide sustainable, fuel-efficient options to our customers today, as well as to advance tomorrows market

    for alternative-powered vehicles and other innovative transit solutions. Our global network of neighborhood and airport locations

    plays a critical role in introducing new automotive technologies to the driving public. By promoting hybrids, electric vehicles (EVs)and other emerging technologies, Enterprise is offering customers the opportunity to experience them firsthand and advancing

    the promise of sustainable mobility.

    In the United States, for example, we offer the industrys largest selection of hybrids and EVs. Our network provides expanded

    hybrid and EV options, making it easier for consumers to test drive new technologies before making the much larger investment

    to purchase. Simultaneously, rental trends at these branches provide our automotive partners, local governments and other

    stakeholders with insight into how new technologies are being received in the marketplace.

    Beyond the Rental FleetOur commitment to alternative-powered vehicles extends to our fleet of more than 500 airport shuttle buses. Enterprise was

    the first major car rental company to switch its shuttles to 5 percent biodiesel. Initially, we set a goal to have all our shuttles

    running on 20 percent biodiesel by 2015, but weve since modified that to include other alternatives. Today, 82 percent of our

    shuttles run on biodiesel, synthetic diesel or compressed natural gas.

    Leading the Way in Renewable Fuels ResearchTo ensure a sustainable future for the automotive industry, theres a critical need to develop new sources

    of renewable fuels. In 2007, our owners, the Taylor family, made an investment in that future with a $35

    million endowment to the Donald Danforth Plant Science Centerto establish the Enterprise Rent-A-CarInstitute for Renewable Fuels.

    Groundbreaking AdvancementsLed by Dr. Thomas Brutnell, one of the worlds foremost biofuel researchers, the Institute develops

    technologies to enhance the potential of oilseed crops, algae and bioenergy grasses as sources of sustainable

    fuel that will ultimately be used on a large scale to power cars, trucks and aircraft.

    Renewable biofuels offer an especially practical solution because the infrastructure to transport, store

    and access this liquid energy is already widespread throughout the world.

    The Institutes multidisciplinary team of scientists studies algal and plant organisms at the molecular level

    to determine how they absorb and store light energy and convert it to oils, sugars and biomass, and to

    understand which mechanisms enhance yield and quality and lower environmental impact.

    In FY2013 innovationsin both plant and algal studies have both advanced the Institutes mission and

    attracted additional funding, including a $12 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to expand

    the scope of its work.

    Amplifying Progress through Strategic PartnershipsCollaboration is the key to developing sustainable transportation solutions that meet societys

    broad-based mobility needs. By engaging with industry, academia and government, Enterprise helps

    to expand the conversation and pave the way to a more efficient transportation system thats driven by

    market forces and technology, as well as by sound public policy and infrastructure decisions.

    OPERATIONS

    *The 2010 baseline excludes branches where

    an external landlord is responsible for utility

    bills, as well as branches added after 2010.

    Energy usage at these new locations is

    being tracked separately as part of our

    Enterprise Sustainable Construction Protocol

    (ESCP). Our goal is to establish a single

    companywide energy baseline by 2015.

    Enterprise has deep appreciation for the link between positive business results and corporate sustainability. Thats why we strive

    to reduce the impact of our operations on the planet. We focus on cutting energy use and emissions, employing responsible

    construction practices and facilitating the recycling of spent materials.

    Living our 20/20 VisionEnterprise works diligently to reduce the amount of energy used to power our branches, offices and other facilities. Using 2010*

    as the baseline, we established our 20/20 Vision, a companywide goal to reduce energy use and related costs 20 percent by

    2015. Its another way we align the interests of our customers, employees and partners with the long-term interests of our

    business. To date we have reduced direct and indirect energy consumption by 13.4 percent.

    The 20/20 Vision has inspired our employees to identify and execute countless energy- and

    cost-saving opportunities. Since employee compensation is tied to the economic performance of

    their branches, this pursuit pays off in more ways than one. Lowering our energy use doesnt just

    help protect the planet the associated cost reductions make our business stronger. Thats good

    news for our company, our employees and the communities in which we operate.

    South Texas operations Reduced water usage by 30 percent by adding pressure washers

    and water reclamation systems.

    Seattle operations Tracking energy usage data using the Branch Energy Number (BEN)

    database helped to identify an underground water leak. Once repaired, water usage dropped

    by more than 80 percent.

    Ottawa operations Partnered with a local company to create Enterprises first LED internal

    and external signage to reduce electricity use. The group also reduced natural gas consumption

    by 19 percent by adding limit switches and constant thermostats to wash bays.

    Atlanta operations Switched the lighting fixtures at all of their branches from the outdated T12 model to an energy-

    efficient T8 model. The new systems provide more light with fewer fixtures and have reduced energy use enough to pay for

    the cost of the upgrades in one year.

    Wisconsin operations Executed a complete retrofit to switch all parking lot lighting to LED fixtures. The result is a warmer,

    more inviting branch environment for customers and a projected energy use reduction of 59 percent.

    Southeast England operations Piloted rainwater collection systems at several branches throughout the region to promote

    water recycling. The new systems allow the operating group to use the naturally wet climate to its advantage, reducing

    municipal water usage per vehicle wash by up to 72 percent.

    OPERATIONS

    Implementing the Enterprise Sustainable Construction ProtocolTo ensure that all of our newly constructed and retrofitted locations are efficient and sustainable, Enterprise introduced the

    Enterprise Sustainable Construction Protocol(ESCP). This set of guidelines draws upon best practices found in widely respected

    green building standards, such as the U.S. Green Building Councils LEED certification program.

    We launched the ESCP in 2011, and we estimate that well invest approximately $150 million in sustainable construction

    practices and materials by the end of 2016. Its an investment that will pay off not only in lower energy and water utility costs,

    but also in providing a healthy, comfortable and efficient workplace for our employees and reducing our overall impact on the

    environment.

    And we know from experience that small changes can make a big difference, especially when theyre implemented throughout

    a vast network like ours. To date, we have engaged in more than 5,000 new construction and retrofit projects guided by the

    ESCPs seven focus areas:

    Sustainable materials Using regionally produced materials and those with at least 10 percent recycled content.

    Energy efficiency Conserving energy use in both interior and exterior settings.

    Sustainable construction sites Building on previously developed sites when appropriate; using materials that reduce

    the heat-island effect on parking lots; capturing and repurposing storm water.

    Recycling Reusing fixtures, furniture and equipment such as millwork for rental counters, operational equipment, furniture

    and signs; recycling construction debris.

    Water efficiencies Installing water reclamation systems in automated car wash systems or using low-flow/high-efficiency

    pressure wash systems; using high-efficiency plumbing fixtures; designing efficient landscaping plans.

    Air quality Using low Volatile Organic Compounds material for paint, carpet, coatings and adhesives; using Indoor Air

    Quality plans for construction, when appropriate.

    Process innovation Developing innovative approaches for each facility, whether its an independent structure, an airport

    facility or in an existing shared building; focusing on the physical layout and design as well as the business processes required

    to operate each facility; ensuring that changes positively impact employee satisfaction.

    Scope 1

    100,849 MTCO2e

    Managing our EmissionsTo help us better understand and manage the carbon footprint of our operations, we took inventory of

    our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions:

    Scope 1 Direct GHG emissions from our own operations, primarily from our own operations.

    Scope 2 Indirect GHG emissions from consumption of purchased electricity, heat or steam.

    Scope 3 Indirect GHG emissions generated by the activities of others but related to our business, such

    as the GHGs emitted from our cars as customers drive them.

    Determining Scope 3 emissions which constitute approximately 97 percent of the GHG impact

    associated with our business has proven challenging due to the wide range of our customers driving

    habits and mobility needs.

    In 2010, we set a goal to lower our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 10 percent by 2015, using our2010 carbon inventory as our baseline. Weve made excellent progress against that baseline, with a 21

    and 19 percent reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, respectively. Were also continuing to focus

    on our supply chain to help minimize emissions associated with the products we use in our operations.

    OPERATIONS

    The FY2012 emissions inventory was developed using the WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol

    Corporate Standard. Complete Integrated Certification Services (CICS) has completed

    a third-party verification of our reported corporate greenhouse gas emissions. The

    Verification Statement attests to the fact that CICS provides reasonable assurancethat reported historical greenhouse gas emissions from August 1, 2011 to July 31,

    2012 are verifiable. For complete details, please refer to the full Verification Statement.

    United Kingdom helps

    bring safe drinking waterto families in Kenya.

    Carbon Credits Fuel Good WorksIn an effort to help our customers reduce their carbon footprints and lower our business overall

    environmental impact, we offer renters the opportunity to purchase carbon offsets. In the United Kingdom,

    our carbon offset partner is ClimateCare, an independent profit-for-purpose organization committedto tackling climate change, poverty and development issues.

    Among the causes that our European offset program supports is the LifeStraw Carbon for Water initiative

    in Kenya, the first large-scale project to use carbon credits as a means to provide people with clean water.

    Through this project, filters have been distributed in Kenyas Western Province, providing households

    Responsible Maintenance and RepairAs part of our mission to exceed our customers expectations for service, quality and value, we follow a thorough maintenance

    program and adhere to manufacturers and government recommendations.

    . We refined 1.3 milliongallons of oil for reuse in

    1 million oil filters. This

    represents approximately

    90 percent of the oil

    and virtually all of the

    Electronics Reuse and RecyclingWith an eye toward value recovery, data security and environmental stewardship, Enterprise works with

    a third-party vendor to manage electronic assets that have been retired by the company. These include

    servers, computers, monitors, printers, routers, phones and other hardware.

    Paperless InnovationsEnterprise Holdings employs an array of technology and service innovations that increase our operational

    efficiency while curtailing our use of paper. Enterprises Automated Rental Management System (ARMS)

    is a web-based application that enables Enterprise branches, insurance companies, dealerships and

    auto body shops to manage the entire rental process electronically, eliminating more than 300,000

    sheets of paper per year. In addition, OnRamp Digital Concierge, a comprehensive, industry-leading QR

    code-based campaign, continues to serve our customers after they leave our rental branch where those

    with smartphones have access to relevant content, including specific vehicle features, local information

    and resources, great deals, roadside assistance and more.

    Our company began with asingle neighborhood office anda simple commitment to serve

    our customers, employees andcommunities. Our business has

    grown since then, but the samecommitment is alive today, aswe look to bring the same careand respect for people to thethousands of communitieswe serve around the world.

    Customer Service: A Way of LifeCustomers are the lifeblood of our business. As our founder Jack Taylor once said, Take care of your

    customers and employees first, and growth and profits will follow. And each day we deliver on that

    promise to focus on providing the best car rental experience possible.

    Our Commitment

    When a customer visits any of our rental locations whether in their own neighborhood or far from

    home we know they expect the same high quality service experience across the board.

    At a time when the car rental industrys overall customer satisfaction ratings have reached an all-time

    high, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands swept the top three

    rankings in the J.D. Power and Associates North American Rental Car Satisfaction Study.

    Enterprise Rent-A-Car ranked first for the eighth time in the past nine years, receiving the highest score in

    all six survey categories: costs and fees; pick-up process; rental car; return process; reservation process;and shuttle bus/van. National and Alamo took second and third respectively, showing an impressive

    ascent in the rankings since Enterprise Holdings acquired the two brands in 2007.

    Measuring Success

    Our path to providing unparalleled customer service is guided by a proprietary service quality

    measurement system. Each of our consumer brands has its own index: ESQi, NSQi and ASQi.

    Every year, we contact more than 2 million individual customers to evaluate the quality of their vehicle

    rental experience and the customer service they received.

    We evaluate each branchs performance based on only two scores: the percentage of customers whowere completely satisfied and the percentage of customers who said they would visit us again. Thats

    not partially satisfied; we strive for completely satisfied. We call this ranking top box, and its the

    uncompromising standard we pioneered and set for the Enterprise Rent-A-Car brand almost 20 years ago.

    SUSTAINABLERESEARCH

    AT THEUNIVERSITYOF MISSOURI

    The vehicle of the future will be more

    sustainable than todays models,

    thanks in part to innovations in

    alternative fuel research. As part

    of our commitment to invest in

    alternative fuel technologies, theEnterprise Holdings Foundation

    made a $2 million gift to support

    sustainability research at the

    University of Missouri Columbia

    (Mizzou). The funds support the

    Mizzou Advantage sustainable

    energy initiatives at the University

    of Missouri Columbia, helping

    researchers address energy issues

    and making inroads into alternative,sustainable sources of fuel.

    Enterprise Holdings FoundationWith thousands of neighborhood rental locations, were keenly

    in tune with the needs of the communities where our employees

    live and work. Our philanthropic giving is steered by the passions

    and pride of our employees. In 2013, 87 percent of the $22

    million given by the Enterprise Holdings Foundation fulfilled grant

    requests by employees to help community causes they support,

    including organizations that provide hunger relief, access to

    education and veteran services.

    United WayUnited Waywas the beneficiary of our first employee-supported

    community outreach campaign in 1969, and to this day it remains

    the only cause we ask our employees to collectively support.

    Since our relationship with United Way began, employees, the

    Taylor family and the Enterprise Holdings Foundation have

    invested more than $66 million in local United Way chapters.

    Thanks to the generosity of our employees, Enterprise Holdings

    was the 13th largest corporate campaign contributor to United

    Way in FY2013. And the Enterprise Holdings Foundation

    amplified the impact of payroll deduction and one-time United

    Way contributions from our U.S. and Canadian employees with

    a 50 percent match. In the United Kingdom, the Foundation alsomatches 50 percent of employee contributions through the Give

    as You Earn program.

    National Urban LeagueFor nearly three decades, Enterprise Holdings has supported

    initiatives of National Urban League affiliates across the country. In

    2013, National Urban Leagueinducted the company into its Million

    Dollar Hall of Fame for its ongoing support of mission-driven

    initiatives, such as its national conference, the Equal OpportunityDay Dinner and the Black Executive Exchange Program (BEEP).

    Volunteers: Feed MichiganInvesting financially in our communities is only part of our

    philanthropic efforts. Our employees also invest thousands

    of hours of personal time in local community organizations.

    Employees volunteered for an array of projects, including

    collecting food and other items for local shelters, making repairs

    to community centers, preparing school supplies for children in

    need and working on community beautification projects.

    Among the many emp loyee volunteer pro ject s around the

    world, Detroit employees stood out thanks to their unique

    Feed Michigan initiative. Local branches launched the campaign

    to address a need they saw in their own community: hunger,

    which drives thousands of Michigan residents to food banks

    each year. Employees collected canned goods and pantry staplesduring a summer food drive, with more than 150 employees

    volunteering their time at local food banks, pantries and soup

    kitchens. The group also secured grants from the Enterprise

    Holdings Foundation for food pantries across the state.

    National Center for Civiland Human Rights

    The Enterprise Holdings Foundation granted $250,000 to the

    National Center for Civil and Human Rightsin Atlanta, Ga.,

    to support the Centers diversity outreach initiatives. Once

    construction is complete, the Center will raise awareness of

    modern human rights issues and help preserve the legacy of the

    Civil Rights Movement.

    WHEN DISASTER STRIKES,Enterprise Mobilizes for Recovery

    Helping to Mobilize Local ResourcesOur extensive neighborhood and airport network of more than 6,000 branch offices throughout the

    United States uniquely positions us to provide reliable local transportation alternatives, particularly when

    hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires and other natural disasters strike.

    Each operating group also has an Action Plan that includes a guide to identify what to do in the event of

    an emergency, a contact list for key personnel and disaster recovery guidelines for daily rental branches.

    In the case of Superstorm Sandy, after the storm subsided, employees were already equipped to help

    first responders with the necessary cars and trucks needed to immediately begin the recovery effort. As

    operator of the worlds largest fleet of passenger vehicles, Enterprise plays a crucial role in mobilizing

    communities and expediting recovery work in times of disaster. When Sandy bore down on the East Coast

    of the U.S., Enterprise was a leading partner in collaborating with federal and local agencies to meet

    the mobility needs of relief workers.

    Superstorm Sandy forced us to close more than 400 of our branches along the Eastern Seaboard anddamaged nearly 1,000 vehicles. The situation was compounded by the fact that the storm hit mere days

    before one of the peak U.S. travel holidays Thanksgiving. But in the aftermath, local branches sprang

    back to action and helped coordinate a massive logistical response. Thousands of vehicles from as

    far away as Colorado were relocated

    to meet unprecedented demand

    from stranded residents, insurance

    companies, government agencies,

    disaster teams and local utilities. In

    response, employees processed

    more than 26,000 insurance-relatedcar rentals to serve residents whose

    vehicles were destroyed or damaged

    by the storm.

    The Enterprise Holdings Foundation

    also donated $1 mil l ion to the

    Amer ican Red Cros s to suppor t

    regional relief efforts.

    Indianapolis Explosion Relief $2,500Were not just a business, but part

    of the communities, and socialservices is a big part of that. Our

    folks live and work in those areas, so

    in times of natural disaster, we needto make friends and not profits.

    In todays increasingly global economy, Enterprise Holdings has invested in meeting the demands of

    customers as they seek international travel opportunities. Our global network now includes corporate-

    owned operations in the U.K., Ireland, Germany, and most recently, France and Spain.

    In addition, FY2013 saw a substantial expansion of locally owned and operated franchises throughout

    Europe and parts of Latin America:

    We announced a new agreement with SharingMatters BV to expand our flagship Enterprise

    Rent-A-Car brand into the Netherlands. The Netherlands is one of Europes strongest economies

    with a population of nearly 17 million, and this new venture is part of Enterprises ongoing European

    growth strategy.

    Strategic franchisee agreements, including Locauto Rentin Italy, Guerin Car Rental Solutionsin

    Portugal and Czechocarin the Czech Republic, brought Enterprise Rent-A-Cars European presence

    to 26 countries.

    A new agreement with Olecram SAextended the National and Alamo brands to Uruguay. The

    agreement also includes plans for additional locations at the Montevideo airport, as well as in the

    exclusive resort destination of Punta Del Este.

    As we continue to expand our global presence, were committed to sharing and promoting the principles

    of sustainability that guide and govern our operations. We are actively working to incorporate the new

    global operations we own into our 20/20 Vision goals and carbon inventory.

    Financial Strength and StabilityEnterprise Holdings financial strength and stability are unmatched in our industry, thanks to a

    conservative and disciplined approach to managing our business. We embrace new opportunities

    strategically, always placing a higher value on the long-term impact than on the potential for short-termgain. For nearly 60 years, our owners, the Taylor family, have put more than 80 percent of the companys

    cumulative earningsright back into the business. Our corporate governance program supports our

    commitments to Enterprises customers, employees, business partners and stakeholders, and ensures

    that our financial management processes are in full compliance with regulations and standards.

    Enterprise Holdings is the only investment-grade car rental company in North America. We engage

    quarterly with our financial stakeholders via investor conference calls and provide Generally Accepted

    Accounting Principles (GAAP) numbers for maximum consistency, comparability and transparency.

    Promoting Ethics in our Supply ChainOur internal Ethics Committee is currently engaged in formalizing a Supplier Code of Conduct, which is

    expected to launch in FY2014. Recognizing that there are differences in laws, customs and economic

    conditions that affect business practices around the world, our policy will be grounded in a belief that

    shared values must serve as a common ground between Enterprise and its suppliers.

    Supporting Local and Minority-Owned BusinessesWe actively seek out opportunities to partner with minority-owned, women-owned and socially or

    economically disadvantaged small businesses. In fact, more than $7 million of our annual supplier spending

    goes to small businesses in the communities our branches serve, and 23 percent of our companywide

    spending is with minority- and women-owned businesses.

    The Enterprise Supplier Diversity Programfurther enhances our effort to foster financial sustainability

    within the communities where we work. We track our supplier spending and provide our operationspersonnel with an internal database of minority- and women-owned businesses for future partnership

    opportunities. Were committed to expanding and maintaining these relationships, and our operating

    groups are encouraged to set annual goals for increasing our collaboration with diverse suppliers.

    Business EthicsWe define business ethics as understanding and embracing the highest standards of integrity and

    displaying those standards in our decisions and actions. Its one of our core values and a personal

    commitment made by every employee.

    As they work to ensure strict observance of our ethics policies, our business managers draw support from

    ethics committees located within our global operating groups. These regional leaders oversee employee

    training and awareness programs that include guidance on how to access our confidential hotline to

    report any ethical concerns. We track participation through an annual review of our formal ethics policy,

    which employees sign upon review. One hundred percent of our full-time employees receive a copy of

    our ethics policy and participate in our ethics program.

    Much of our ability to serveour customers depends on the

    strong relationships we have

    with our suppliers morethan 250,000 worldwide.
