November 30, 2007 VIA HAND DELIVERY Re: Separation and Release Agreement Dear Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx: On behalf of RSC Holdings Inc. (the “Company”), I am writing to set forth the terms and conditions of the Separation and Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) that the Company is offering to you with respect to your employment transition. As set forth below, this Separation Agreement is intended to modify, supplement and enhance the Amended and Restated Executive Employment and Noncompetition Agreement that you entered into with the Company effective as of November 28, 2006 (the “Employment Agreement”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 1. Employment Status, Final Payments, Transition. (a) Resignation. You acknowledge and agree that, effective November 30, 2007 (the “Resignation Date”), you will resign from your position as Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of the Company and from any other office or position you may hold with the Company or with any of the Company’s affiliated entities. Following the Resignation Date, you will not be employed in any position with the Company or its affiliated entities. (b) Accrued Salary and Vacation. On the Resignation Date, the Company will pay you all salary earned through the Resignation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. No later than the next regular payroll date after the Resignation Date, the Company will pay you all of your accrued and unused vacation, subject to standard deductions and withholdings. You are entitled to these payments by law and pursuant to the Company’s policies and practices. (c) Expense Reimbursements. Within thirty (30) days after the Resignation Date, you shall submit expense reports to the Company seeking reimbursement for any business expenses incurred through the Resignation Date. The Company will reimburse you for these business expenses, pursuant to its standard policies and practices, within fifteen (15) business days after the submission of your expense report. (d) Transition Duties. In consideration for the Severance Benefits (defined in Section 2 herein) provided in this Resignation Agreement, you agree to provide transition support (“Transition Duties”) through the later of March 1, 2008 or the date (the “10-K Date”) the Company files its next form 10-K (currently projected to occur on or about February 27, 2008). Your Transition Duties shall include but not be limited to: (i) performing any and all duties requested of you by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and/or the successor CFO; (ii) taking all steps satisfactory to the Company to ensure the orderly transition

of all matters that you have handled during the course of your employment with the Company; and (iii) providing transition briefing information as requested by the Company (the “Transition Duties”). Such Transition Duties shall not, in any week, exceed 20% of the average weekly time that you previously devoted to performance of your duties for the Company. 2. Severance Benefits. If you sign, date and return this fully executed Separation Agreement to the Company’s CEO and allow it to become effective, the Company will provide you with the following severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”): (a) Severance Payments. Following the Resignation Date, the Company will pay you severance in the form of continuation of your base salary in effect on the Resignation Date (i.e., at the rate of $249,100 per annum) for thirty (30) months (the “Severance Payments”). The Severance Payments will be subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. Except as otherwise set forth below, the Severance Payments will be paid in substantially equal installments on the Company’s normal payroll schedule over the thirty (30) month period following the Resignation Date (the “Severance Period”). The Company has determined that you are a “specified employee” of the Company as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) and that the Severance Payments are subject to a six month delay of payment. Accordingly, to avoid imposition of taxes under Section 409A, on the first business day after the sixth month following your Resignation Date (the “Six Month Date”), the Company will pay you a lump sum of $124,550 (which is six months of your base salary), subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. Thereafter, the Company will pay the remaining twenty-four (24) months of Severance Payments ($498,200) in substantially equal installments on the Company’s normal payroll schedule, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. The total amount of Severance Payments is Six Hundred Twenty Two Thousand, Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($622,750), subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. (b) Severance Bonus. Within five (5) business days after the Effective Date of this Resignation Agreement (as defined in Section 10(d)), the Company will pay you a lump sum of $100,000, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings (the “Severance Bonus”). This Severance Bonus is in lieu of any 2007 pro-rated bonus you would have received pursuant to the Company’s Variable Compensation Plan. The Severance Bonus payment set forth in this Section 2(b) is intended to be a separate payment (as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.409A-2(b)(2)) from the payments described in Section 2(a) above for purposes of the “short term deferral rule” under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). (c) Health Insurance. As an additional severance benefit, the Company will pay continued health insurance coverage premiums for medical, dental and vision coverage (at the same level of coverage and paid in the same manner and amount as during your active employment) for up to thirty (30) months or until the date that you become eligible for group health insurance coverage through a new employer. You agree to provide prompt written notice to the Company in the event that you become eligible for group health insurance coverage through a new employer. The thirty (30) months of continued health insurance coverage will be provided as follows: (i) for the initial twelve (12) months, you will receive continued health insurance coverage through the Company’s regular payroll process (the “Initial Healthcare

Period”); (ii) thereafter, on or after the Initial Healthcare Period, if you timely elect continued group health insurance coverage pursuant to COBRA, the Company agrees to pay directly to the appropriate insurance company(ies) (or to reimburse you for) your COBRA premiums sufficient to continue your group health insurance coverage for up to an additional eighteen (18) months. (d) Stock Vesting and Exercise. Upon the Effective Date (as defined in Section 10(d)), you will (retroactive to the Resignation Date) no longer be required to provide services as an employee or consultant, other than that provided for herein, to the Company in order to become eligible for vesting of 100,000 of your time-based option shares (the “Unvested Shares”) which were unvested as of the Resignation Date. Your Unvested Shares will not become vested or exercisable unless and until the later of March 1, 2008 or the date the Company files its next form 10-K (the “10-K Date”) (currently projected to occur on or about February 27, 2008) and you have not breached any of the terms of this Separation Agreement. You acknowledge that the Company makes no representation with respect to when the 10-K Date will actually occur. All other unvested stock options or restricted stock which you may have been granted will be forfeited as of the Resignation Date (including but not limited to your approximate 200,000 plus performance-based option shares). Your exercise period on all vested shares will be determined by the terms of your applicable grant agreements and the Company’s equity incentive plan. (e) Subscription Agreement Waiver. In the event that the Company files its next 10-K (currently projected to occur on or about February 27, 2008) and you have not breached any of the terms of this Separation Agreement, then on the later of March 1, 2008 or the 10-K Date, the Company will waive its right to enforce the restrictions set forth in the first sentence of Section 4(a) (Restriction of Transfer of Shares) of the Employee Stock Subscription Agreement which you entered into with the Company (attached hereto as Exhibit B). (f) Financial Planning Allowance. The Company will pay any amount of your 2007 $2,500 financial planning services allowance that has not been used as of your Resignation Date. This amount will be paid on the Six Month Date. (g) Outplacement Services. The Company will provide you with outplacement services comparable to that provided to similarly situated executives (for a maximum period of nine (9) months), having a maximum cost to the Company of $9,500. If you choose to utilize such services, payments will be made to the Company’s ordinary outplacement services provider. The Company will not make any cash payments directly to you. (h) Professional Association Fees. The Company will continue to pay (or to reimburse you for) your professional association fees for up to thirty (30) months after the Resignation Date, but only with respect to such fees that were paid or reimbursed by the Company prior to the Resignation Date. These fees will be paid, beginning with a “catch-up” payment on the Six Month Date. (i) Life Insurance Continuation. The Company will pay the premiums for the continuation of your life insurance coverage during the Severance Period either: (i) under the Company’s group life insurance policy, if such conversion or continuation is permitted; or (ii) if such conversion or continuation is not permitted, then it will pay the premiums for a term

life insurance policy with a comparable benefit. You are not entitled to a cash payment in substitution for the life insurance premiums to be paid by the Company. As a condition to your obtaining benefits pursuant to this Section 2(i), you must comply with reasonable requests for medical information or physical examination from any insurance company prospectively issuing a policy for the coverage under this Section 2(i). 3. Other Compensation Or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Separation Agreement, you have not earned and will not receive from the Company any additional compensation (including base salary, bonus, incentive compensation, or equity), severance, or benefits after the Resignation Date (including without limitation any severance benefits set forth in your Employment Agreement), with the exception of any vested rights you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified benefit plan (e.g., 401(k) account) or any vested stock options. 4. Return Of Company Property. By the Resignation Date, or earlier if requested by the Company, you shall return to the Company all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property which you have in your possession or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings, records, plans, forecasts, reports, studies, compilations of data, analyses, proposals, agreements, financial information, research and development information, sales and marketing information, customer lists, prospect information, pipeline reports, sales reports, operational and personnel information, specifications, code, software, databases, computer-recorded information, tangible property and equipment (including, but not limited to, computers, facsimile machines, mobile telephones, servers), credit cards, entry cards, identification badges and keys; and any materials of any kind which contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company (and all reproductions thereof, in whole or in part). You agree that you will make a diligent search to locate any such documents, property and information. If you have used any personally owned computer, server, or e-mail system to receive, store, review, prepare or transmit any Company confidential or proprietary data, materials or information, by the Resignation Date, you shall provide the Company with a computer-useable copy of such information and then permanently delete and expunge such Company confidential or proprietary information from those systems; and you agree to provide the Company access to your system as requested to verify that the necessary copying and/or deletion is done. Your timely compliance with this paragraph is a condition precedent to your receipt of the Severance Benefits provided under this Resignation Agreement. 5. Other Obligations. You hereby acknowledge and agree to abide by your continuing obligations under Article III (Confidential Information), Article IV (Covenant Not to Compete and No Solicitation of Customers or Employees) and Section 5.7 (Duration of Obligations) of the Employment Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit A). 6. Mutual Nondisparagement. You agree that you will not make any disparaging remarks, or any remarks that could reasonably be construed as disparaging, whether orally or in writing, regarding the Company or its officers, directors, employees, or affiliated entities (including but not limited to the sponsors) that could reasonably be harmful to them or their reputations. The Company agrees that its officers and directors will not make any disparaging remarks, or any remarks that could reasonably be construed as disparaging, whether orally or in writing, regarding you that could reasonably be harmful to your business or personal

reputation. Nothing in this section shall prohibit you or the Company or any of its officers or directors from testifying or responding truthfully in response to any court order, arbitral order, subpoena or government investigation, or in connection with any legal proceeding brought by one party against the other. 7. Cooperation and Assistance. You agree that you will not voluntarily provide assistance, information or advice, directly or indirectly (including through agents or attorneys), to any person or entity in connection with any claim or cause of action of any kind brought against the Company or its officers, directors, or affiliated entities, nor shall you induce or encourage any person or entity to bring such claims. It will not violate this Separation Agreement if you testify truthfully when required to do so by a valid subpoena or under similar compulsion of law. Further, you agree to voluntarily cooperate with the Company if you have knowledge of facts relevant to any threatened or pending litigation or other claim against the Company or its officers, directors, or affiliated entities, or any actual or potential claim by the Company or its affiliated entities against any third party, by making yourself reasonably available without further compensation for interviews with the Company’s counsel, for preparing for and providing deposition testimony, and for preparing for and providing trial testimony. 8. No Admissions. You understand and agree that the promises and payments in consideration of this Separation Agreement shall not be construed to be an admission of any liability or obligation by the Company to you or to any other person, and that the Company makes no such admission. 9. Job Reference. You agree to inform all prospective employers that requests for references should be directed in writing to the Company’s Senior Vice President for Human Resources at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000. In response to any such requests for a reference, the Company will confirm your period of employment, position held and last rate of pay. 10. Release of Claims. (a) General Release. In exchange for the consideration under this Separation Agreement to which you would not otherwise be entitled, you hereby generally and completely release the Company and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, affiliates, and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) of and from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring prior to the time you execute this Separation Agreement (collectively, the “Released Claims”). (b) Scope of Release. The Released Claims include, but are not limited to: (a) all claims arising from or in any way related to the Employment Agreement, your employment with the Company, or the termination of that employment; (b) all claims related to your compensation or benefits from the Company, including salary, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in the Company; (c) all claims for breach of contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (d) all tort claims,

including claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in violation of public policy; and (e) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys’ fees, or other claims arising under the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (as amended) or the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (collectively, “ADEA”), and the Arizona Civil Rights Act. (c) Excluded Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following are not included in the Released Claims (the “Excluded Claims”): (a) any rights or claims for indemnification you may have pursuant to any written indemnification agreement with the Company to which you are a party, the charter, bylaws, or operating agreements of the Company, or under applicable law; (b) any rights which are not waivable as a matter of law; or (c) any claims arising from the breach of this Separation Agreement. In addition, nothing in this Separation Agreement prevents you from filing, cooperating with, or participating in any proceeding before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, or the Arizona Civil Rights Division, except that you hereby waive your right to any monetary benefits in connection with any such claim, charge or proceeding. You hereby represent and warrant that, other than the Excluded Claims, you are not aware of any claims you have or might have against any of the Released Parties that are not included in the Released Claims. (d) ADEA Waiver. In exchange for the consideration under this Separation Agreement to which you would not otherwise be entitled, you hereby acknowledge that you are knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights you may have under the ADEA, and that the consideration for the waiver and release you have given in this Separation Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which you were already entitled. You further acknowledge that you have been advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA, that: (a) your waiver and release do not apply to any rights or claims that may arise after the date you sign this Separation Agreement; (b) you should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Separation Agreement (although you may voluntarily decide not to do so); (c) you have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Separation Agreement (although you may choose voluntarily to sign it earlier); (d) you have seven (7) days following the date you sign this Separation Agreement to revoke this Separation Agreement (in a written revocation received by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer); and (e) this Separation Agreement will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which will be the eighth day after you sign this Separation Agreement (the “Effective Date”). 11. Dispute Resolution.

It supersedes any and all agreements entered into by and between you and the Company; provided, however, that all of your obligations under the Employment Agreement referenced in Section 12 hereof shall remain in full force and effect and are considered a material part hereof.

Exhibit A Amended and Restated Executive Employment and Noncompetition Agreement

AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AND NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT This Amended and Restated Employment and Noncompetition Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into between Rental Service Corporation, (the “Company” or “Rental Service Corporation”) and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx (“Executive”), effective as of November 28th, 2006. RECITALS WHEREAS, the Company operates its equipment rental business which has store locations throughout North America (such business as operated by the Company is referred to herein as the “Business”). WHEREAS, the Company’s life-blood is its Confidential Information, including but not limited to customer databases, marketing and sales objectives and strategies, customer lists, information regarding existing customer preferences, habits, and needs, information regarding prospective customers, details of past, pending and contemplated transactions, price lists, pricing policies, sales data, training materials, and customer proposals, information developed about the Company’s competitors, systems, strategies, designs, processes, procedures, market data, know-how, compilations of technical and non-technical data, advertising and promotional plans, and financial and other projections, which information has been collected over a significant amount of time and at great effort and expense. WHEREAS, the Company would be placed at an unfair competitive disadvantage if Employee were able to use the Company’s Confidential Information and goodwill for his or her own benefit, or for the benefit of anyone other than the Company. WHEREAS, with the assurances contained in the agreement, the Company desires to employ Executive as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, in which position he will not only have access to the Company’s Confidential Information but also will have the duty to expand and improve such information. WHEREAS, Executive desires to be employed by the Company in this position and is willing to do so upon the terms contained herein. WHEREAS, the Company and Executive are currently parties to the Executive Employment and Noncompetition Agreement, dated as of February 18th, 2005 which the parties desire to amend and restate effective as of the date hereof.

AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, as a condition of employment, and for other good and valuable consideration, including without limitation continued employment and/or promotion or advancement, which Executive agrees is sufficient consideration for this Agreement, and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth below, the Company and Executive agree as follows: ARTICLE I EMPLOYMENT Section 1.1. Employment & Position. The Company shall employ Executive as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at the Company’s location in Scottsdale, AZ. Executive shall report to the President and Chief Executive Officer, or another Senior Executive as deemed appropriate by the Company. During Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall devote all necessary energies, experience, skills, abilities, knowledge and productive time to the performance of duties under this Agreement and shall not render to others services that interfere with the performance of his duties with the Company under this Agreement. The rendering of services to others shall be subject to the approval of the Board. Section 1.2. Duties. Executive’s primary responsibilities shall be those customarily performed by an Executive in the position of Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Section 1.3. Term of Employment. Executive shall be employed as herein set forth, commencing on the date set forth above and continuing until terminated by either party in accordance with section 2.5 below (the “Employment Term”). ARTICLE II COMPENSATION Section 2.1. Base Salary. Executive’s salary (the “Base Salary”) shall be $249,100 per annum for the term of this Agreement and/or as increased, after review by the Board at the time and in accordance with Company policies as in effect from time to time. Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the standard payroll practices of the Company. Section 2.2. Variable Compensation. In addition to his Base Salary, Executive will be eligible to receive Variable Compensation, in accordance with the Company’s Variable Compensation Plan as in effect from time to time, and which will

provide him with additional incentive opportunity with a target of 75% of his Base Salary and a maximum of 150% of his Base Salary. Section 2.3. Equity Incentive. Executive will be offered the opportunity to participate in the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan at such level and on such terms as the Board determines appropriate. Section 2.4. Other Benefits. During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to all benefits and conditions of employment generally provided to other RSC Company executives, subject to the same eligibility and other reasonable conditions of Company benefit programs and to country related differences, including, but not limited to, medical, dental, life insurance, non-qualified deferred compensation programs, sick leave, disability, automobile allowance ($1,200 per month), and participation in any retirement plan. In addition, benefits shall include, but not be limited to not less than five (5) weeks vacation per year and an annual tax and financial planning services allowance of up to $2,500. Section 2.5. Employment Separation. (a) Severance Benefits: The Company may, at its sole discretion, terminate Executive’s employment at any time, provided however, that if the Company xxxxxx Executive’s employment for any reason other than For Cause or if Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Company shall provide the following severance payments and benefits (collectively “Severance Benefits”), less all applicable federal and state income and withholding taxes, in exchange for a full and complete release of all claims against the Company, in the form customarily used by the Company, executed by Executive:

Twenty-four (24) months of Base Salary (the “Severance Period”), plus a pro-rata portion of variable compensation for the calendar year, or if variable compensation is to be paid quarterly then for the calendar quarter, in which the severance occurs up to the separation date, such pro rata bonus to be equal to the variable compensation Executive would have earned had Executive remained employed through the end of the applicable period (pro rated based on the number of days employed in such period). Executive’s entitlement to and the amount of any variable compensation under this Section 2.5(a) (1) shall be determined at the sole discretion of the Company. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, and the pro rata variable compensation payments shall be payable at the time that other variable compensation payments are made under the applicable Variable Compensation Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, prior to the expiration of

the first anniversary of this Agreement, the Severance Period shall be thirty (30) months. Further, notwithstanding the payment schedule described in this paragraph, if Executive is a Specified Employee (as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) and becomes entitled to the payment described in this Section 2.5 as a result of a separation of service as defined by Section 409A(a)(2)(i) of the Code, then the portion of such payment treated as “separation pay” for purposes of Section 409A shall not be paid prior to the date which is six (6) months after the date of the Executive’s separation of service with the Company if such payment would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 409A of the Code. Any amount described in the preceding sentence otherwise payable during the first six months following Executive’s separation from service shall be accumulated and paid to Executive in a lump sum amount on the first date of the seventh month following the date of separation from service.

Executive’s entitlement to the foregoing severance payments is contingent on his continued compliance with the confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions outlined in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4.2 and 4.3 herein. Executive understands that if the Company determines that he has violated the confidentiality provisions, covenant not to compete or non-solicitation provisions, the Company will not make any further severance payments, and will be entitled to reimbursement from Executive of any severance amounts already paid to him, all in addition to any other remedy to which the Company may.

Upon his separation from service, if Executive is eligible and enrolled in the Company’s medical and dental benefit programs, the Company will provide the necessary forms, including COBRA notifications, to transfer the responsibility and right to continue those benefits to Executive, which under COBRA are typically at his expense, for the time period allowed by law or under the applicable programs. However, assuming Executive is eligible and elects to continue those benefits, the Company will continue to pay the same proportion of Executive’s medical and dental insurance premiums under COBRA as during active employment (for Executive and eligible dependents) until the earlier of: (1) the expiration of the Severance Period; or (2) the date Executive is eligible for medical and dental insurance benefits by another employer.

	3.		Upon termination of employment, Executive is not eligible to continue participation in the Company group life insurance program. The Company will therefore pay, at the Company’s option, the premiums during the Severance Period that are either (i) applicable to a conversion of the coverage (equal to the amount normally provided to an employee without payment by the employee) from group to individual coverage; or (ii) that will support the same level of coverage in a term life policy. The company’s obligation under this sub-section is to provide the required insurance and Executive is not entitled to a cash payment in substitution thereof.

	4.		If Executive is not fully vested in the Company’s 401 (k) and/or other retirement/pension plan on the date of separation, the Company shall pay Executive an amount equal to the unvested portion of such account(s).

	5.		The Company on the date of separation will provide professional outplacement counseling and services consistent with other Executives at similar compensation levels. No cash lump sum payment in lieu of outplacement services will be provided to Executive.

	6.		During the Severance Period the Company will continue to pay for Executive’s reasonable association fees related to Executive’s former duties and responsibilities if and to the extent previously paid by the Company.

	7.		The Company shall, except in the case of any termination of Executive’s employment for Cause, give the Executive no less than 30 days’ prior written notice of termination of employment. In the event the Company gives such notice, the Executive shall be under no obligation to render additional services and shall be allowed to seek other employment, provided that the Severance Period shall be reduced accordingly if Executive so ceases to provide services to the Company.

“Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence, without Executive’s consent, of any of the following: (i) a material diminution in, or assignment of duties material inconsistent with Executive’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting relationships), (ii) a reduction in Base Salary that is not part of across-the-board reduction, (iii) a relocation of Executive’s principal place of business to a location that is greater than fifty (50) miles from its current location or (iv) the Company’s material breach of the Agreement.

(b) For Cause. The Company may, at its sole discretion, terminate Executive’s employment at any time during the Employment Term “For Cause”. The term “For Cause” means: (1) the failure of Executive to implement or adhere to material policies, practices, or directives of the Company, including of the Board; (2) conduct of a fraudulent and/or criminal nature; (3) any action of Executive outside the scope of his employment duties that results in material financial harm to the Company, (4) conduct that is in violation of any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Company or any of its affiliates and Executive (including any noncompetition, noninterference, nonsolicitation or confidentiality agreement); or (5) solely for purposes of this Section 2.5 , death or disability as defined hereinafter. (c) Disability. Within the parameters allowed by federal and state law, the Company reserves the right to terminate Executive’s employment or place him on unpaid leave if Executive is incapacitated due to physical or mental illness and cannot perform the essential functions of his job with or without a reasonable accommodation. (d) Voluntary Resignation by Executive. Executive shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time. Executive agrees to provide the Company with thirty (30) days prior written notice of any such intended resignation. The Company’s obligation to pay Executive’s Base Salary, variable compensation and other benefits shall cease as of Executive’s date of separation. Executive shall not be entitled to any Severance Benefits if he resigns (other than for Good Reason). ARTICLE III CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION Section 3.1. Confidential Information. Executive’s position with the Company will, and have, necessarily give him access to, contact with and knowledge of certain trade secrets, and confidential and proprietary business information of the Company. This information includes but is not limited to employee information, union information, employment and union litigation and claim information, marketing and sales objectives and strategies, customer lists, information regarding existing customer preferences, habits and needs, information regarding prospective customers, details of past, pending and contemplated transactions, price lists, pricing policies, sales data, training materials, customer proposals, information developed about Company’s competitors, systems, strategies, designs, processes, procedures, growth plans, market data, know-how, compilations of technical and non-technical data, advertising and promotional plans and strategies, and financial and other projections relating to the Business, which are not generally known to or readily ascertainable through legitimate means by the public or by competitors of the Company (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Confidential Information”). Executive shall not at any time disclose the Confidential Information to anyone, except on a need-to-know basis in connection with Executive’s duties in carrying out the business of the Company. Executive shall not use

any Confidential Information for his own benefit, or for the benefit of anyone other than the Company or its affiliates. Section 3.2. Ownership of Records, Etc. All records, reports, notes, compilations or other recorded matter, and copies or reproductions thereof, in whatever media form, relating to the Confidential Information of the Company, operations, activities or business, made or received by Executive during any past employment or future period of employment with the Company are and shall be the exclusive property of the Company. Executive shall keep the same at all times in his custody, subject to control by the Company and Executive shall surrender the same at the end of his employment, if not before. Failure to return such property upon the request of the Company during Executive’s Employment Term or thereafter shall be a material breach of this Agreement. Section 3.3. Injunctive Relief. Executive acknowledges that (a) the provisions of Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, and (b) any violation of Section 3.1 or Section 3.2 will result in irreparable injury to the Company, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such violation would not be reasonable or adequate compensation to the Company for such a violation. Accordingly Executive agrees that if he violates, or under the then existing circumstances it seems reasonable likely that there may occur a violation of, the provisions of Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief, without posting bond or other security, and without the necessity of proving actual damages. ARTICLE IV COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE Section 4.1. Recitals. Executive acknowledges and agrees that he has technical and other extensive expertise associated with the Business and is well known in the equipment rental industry. In addition, Executive has valuable business contacts with employees, potential employees, clients, and potential clients of the Business and with professionals in the equipment rental industry. Furthermore, Executive’s reputation and goodwill are an integral part of the Company’s success throughout the areas where the Business is and will be conducted. If Executive deprives the Company of any of his goodwill or in any manner uses his reputation and goodwill in competition with the Company, the Company will be deprived of the benefits it has bargained for pursuant to this Agreement. Since Executive has the ability to compete with the Company in the operation of the Business, the Company therefore desires that Executive enter into this Covenant Not To Compete.

Section 4.2. Covenant Not to Compete. Executive agrees that during his employment with Rental Service Corporation and for a period of twelve (12) months commencing immediately after the end of his employment (the “Time Period”), he shall not, unless acting with the Company’s prior written consent (which may be withheld at the Company’s sole discretion), directly or indirectly own, manage, join, operate or control, participate in the ownership, operation or control of, or be connected as a director, officer, partner, or consultant, or permit his name to be used in connection with the following businesses or organizations that rent or lease construction or construction-related equipment within the United States, Canada and Mexico (collectively “the Territory”): Caterpillar, United Rentals, Sunbelt Rentals and its parent Ashtead Group plc, Xxxx Rental, Hertz, Volvo, National Equipment Services and Xxxxx Xxxxx Works or, in the alternative, any business or organization not listed above that rents or leases construction or construction-related equipment that has gross revenues of $100 million or more, or has a total employee base of 500 employees or more or that has plans to enter into the construction-related equipment rental or leasing business in the Territory. The parties agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Time Period for purposes of this Section 4.2 is unreasonably long and found to be an unenforceable term, the Time Period for purposes of this Section 4.2 shall be shortened to the maximum duration enforceable under applicable law. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Territory is an unreasonable geographic scope for this provision, the Territory shall be deemed reformed to include the United States and Canada, excluding Mexico. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Territory of the United States and Canada is an unreasonable geographic scope for this provision, the Territory shall be deemed reformed to include the United States. Section 4.3. No Solicitation of Customers or Employees. Executive agrees that: (a) During his employment with Rental Service Corporation and for the Time Period, he shall not, directly or indirectly, call on or solicit or divert or take away from Rental Service Corporation or any of its affiliates (including by divulging to any competitor or potential competitor of Rental Service Corporation) any person, firm, corporation, or other entity who is a customer of Rental Service Corporation or its affiliates and whom Executive had contact with through any of his employment with Rental Service Corporation. (b) During his employment with Rental Service Corporation and for the Time Period, he shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit employment of any employee of Rental Service Corporation or any employee of any affiliate of Rental Service Corporation for employment with any entity that rents or leases construction or construction-related equipment in the Territory as defined in Section 4.2.

(c) The parties agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Time Period is unreasonably long and deemed unenforceable as defined herein in Sections 4.3(a) or (b), the Time Period for purposes of Sections 4.3(a) or (b), as applicable, shall be shortened to the maximum duration enforceable under applicable law. Section 4.4. Severability of Provisions. In the event that the provisions of this Section should ever be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the time or geographic or other limitations permitted by applicable law, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed to the maximum time or geographic or other limitations permitted by applicable law, as determined by such court in such action. Each breach of the covenants set forth herein shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action. Section 4.5. Injunctive Relief. Executive acknowledges that (a) the provisions of Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, and (b) any violation of Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 will result in irreparable injury to the Company, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such violation would not be reasonable or adequate compensation to the Company for such a violation. Accordingly, Executive agrees that if he violates, or under the then existing circumstances it seems reasonable likely that there may occur a violation of, the provisions of Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief, without posting bond or other security, and without the necessity of proving actual damages. Section 4.6. Equitable Tolling. The restrictive time periods referred to in Sections 4.2 and 4.3 shall be tolled and extended by one month for each month or portion of each month during which Employee is in violation of the restrictions. If Company initiates legal action to enforce the restrictions and obtains an injunction against Employee; then the appropriate restrictive time period(s) will begin to run on the date that the injunction is entered. ARTICLE V GENERAL PROVISIONS Section 5.1. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties except that the Company may, without such consent, assign all such rights and obligations to a wholly-owned subsidiary or newly created legal entity (or a partnership controlled by the Company) or subsidiaries of the Company or to a successor in interest to the Company which shall assume all obligations and liabilities hereunder.

Executive expressly agrees that reliance on any oral representation(s) is unreasonable. Section 5.3. Waivers.

If any one or more provisions, clauses, paragraphs, subclauses or subparagraphs contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the same shall not affect any other provision, clause, paragraph, subclause or subparagraph of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable provision, clause, paragraph, subclause or subparagraph had never been contained herein.

Section 5.11. Confidentiality.

Upon delivery of a Drag-Along Notice, the Employee shall have the obligation to sell and transfer to the Third-Party Buyer at the Drag-Along Closing the percentage of the Employee’s Shares equal to the percentage of the Common Shares owned by the Investor(s) that are to be sold to the Third-Party Buyer (the “Applicable Percentage”) on the same terms as the applicable Investor(s), but only if such Investor(s) sells and transfers the Applicable Percentage of the Investor’s Common Shares to the Third-Party Buyer at the Drag-Along Closing. (c) Power of Attorney, Custodian, Etc. By entering into this Agreement and purchasing the Shares, the Employee hereby appoints the applicable Investor(s) and any Affiliates of such Investor(s) so designated by the Investor(s) the Employee’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and custodian, with full power of substitution (the “Custodian”), and authorizes the Custodian to take such actions as the Custodian may deem necessary or appropriate to effect the sale and transfer of the Applicable Percentage of the Employee’s Shares to the Third-Party Buyer, upon receipt of the purchase price therefor at the Drag-Along Closing, free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims, encumbrances, charges, options, restrictions on transfer, proxies and voting and other agreements of whatever nature, and to take such other action as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with such sale or transfer, including consenting to any amendments, waivers, modifications or supplements to the terms of the sale (provided that the applicable Investor also so consents, and, to the extent applicable, sells and transfers the Applicable Percentage of its Common Shares on the same terms as so amended, waived, modified or supplemented) and instructs the Secretary of the Company (or other person holding any certificates for the Shares) to deliver to the Custodian certificates representing the Applicable Percentage of the Employee’s Shares, together with all necessary duly-executed stock powers. If so requested by the applicable Investor(s) or the Company, the Employee will confirm the preceding sentence in writing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Investor promptly upon receipt of a Drag-Along Notice (and in any event no later than 10 days after receipt of the Drag-Along Notice). Promptly after the Drag-Along Closing, the Custodian shall give notice thereof to the Employee and shall remit to the Employee the net

The Employee acknowledges and agrees that any of the Investors that takes action pursuant to this Section 9, is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 9 as if such Investor were a party to this Agreement directly. Following a breach or a threatened breach by the Employee of the provisions of this Section 9, the applicable Investor may obtain an injunction granting it specific performance of the Employee’s obligations under this Section 9. Whether or not the applicable Investor obtains such an injunction, and whether or not the transaction with respect to which the Drag-Along Notice relates is consummated, following such a breach or threatened breach by the Employee the Company shall have the option to purchase any or all of the Employee’s Shares at a purchase price per Share equal to the lesser of the price at which the Employee purchased such Shares from the Company or the per share consideration payable pursuant to the Drag-Along Offer. The preceding sentence shall not limit the Company’s or the Investors’ rights to recover damages (or the amount thereof) from the Employee. (e) Expiration on a Public Market.

The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to act as promptly as practicable following receipt of the notice from the Employee to determine whether it shall elect to exercise such right. (c) Right of the Investors. If the Company determines within the First Refusal Period that it does not wish to exercise its right to purchase all of the Offered Shares, the Investors shall have the right to purchase all or any portion remaining of the Offered Shares specified in such notice, at the Offer Price and on the Offer Terms, and any such purchase shall be settled at the time and in the manner specified in Section 10(d) hereof. The Investors must determine whether to exercise such right during the period beginning on the earlier of (x) the end of the First Refusal Period and (y) the date of receipt by the Investors of written notice that the Company has elected not to exercise its rights under Section 10(b) and ending 60 days after the Investor’s receipt of the Employee’s notice pursuant to Section 10(a) (the “Second Refusal Period”). (d) Manner of Exercise. The rights provided hereunder shall be exercised by written notice to the Employee given at any time during the applicable period. If such right is exercised, the Employee may not sell pursuant to the Qualified Offer any of the Shares that the Company or the Investors have elected to purchase and the Company or the Investors, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Employee cash, check or other readily- available funds for the Offer Price, against delivery of certificates or other instruments representing the Shares so purchased, appropriately endorsed by the Employee, and free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims, encumbrances, charges, etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Investors, as the case may be, shall deliver any cash, check or other readily-available funds for the Offer Price to the Employee prior to the date which is six months and one day from the date of the Employee’s acquisition of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Additional Requirements for Sale. Subject to Section 4, if neither the Company nor the Investors shall have exercised its rights under this Section 10, then the Employee may Transfer the Offered Shares to (but only to) the intended purchaser named in his notice to the Company and the Investors at the Offer Price and on the Offer Terms; provided that: (i) such Transfer must be consummated within 30 days following the expiration of the Second Refusal Period; and (ii) the intended purchaser must first agree in writing in form and substance satisfactory to the Company to make and be bound by the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3(b), Section 3(e), Section 3(f), Section 3(g) and to agree to and be bound by the covenants and other restrictions set forth in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, Section 4, Section 8, Section 9, Section 10, Section 11 and Section 13) and such other covenants or restrictions as the Company shall reasonably request (it being understood that the Employee and any intended purchaser therefrom shall not have any of the benefits provided for in Section 6). Any purported Transfer in violation of this Section 10 shall be void abinitio. (f) Allocation by Investors.
