Plan, including such liabilities and obligations arising in respect of Car

(b) Effective as of the Separation, ARAC shall amend the ARAC

that, for a period (the "ARAC Retirement Plan Transition Period") beginning on
the date of the Separation and ending on December 31, 1998 or such earlier date
as HFS shall determine (i) each

Plan) of such employee.

the ARAC Retirement Plan to Car Rental Employees in accordance with Section
2.4(b) above, HFS shall pay to ARAC an amount (the "HFS Amount") equal to the
excess, if any, of (i) the present value of the accrued benefit that each Car
Rental Employee would be entitled to under the ARAC Retirement Plan (as in
effect on the date hereof) upon reaching normal retirement age assuming that
such employee terminated employment with Car Rental and its subsidiaries
immediately following the
10
ARAC Retirement Plan Transition Period or, if earlier, on the date such Car
Rental Employee actually terminates employment with Car Rental, any Car
Rental/HFS Subsidiary or HFS, determined as of the last day of the ARAC Retire-
ment Plan Transition Period and after giving effect to Section 2.4(b) above
over (ii) the present value of the accrued benefit that each Car Rental
Employee would be entitled to under the ARAC Retirement Plan (as in effect on
the date hereof) upon reaching normal retirement age assuming that such
employee terminated employment with Car Rental and its subsidiaries immediately
prior to the Separation (and, accordingly, assuming that such employee would
not accrue additional service credit or be credited with any increase in Final
Average Pay after such termination). The HFS Amount shall (i) be calculated by
an enrolled actuary selected by HFS (the "HFS Actuary") in connection with the
first regular actuarial valuation of the ARAC Retirement Plan following the end
of the ARAC Retirement Plan Transition Period, and (ii) be calculated using the
same actuarial assumptions applied to such annual actuarial valuation, which
assumptions shall be substantially consistent with the assumptions used in
previous valuations of the ARAC Retirement Plan. Upon the receipt by HFS of a
report
11
from the HFS Actuary indicating the HFS Amount and detailing the method
of valuation and the assumptions used, HFS shall pay to ARAC, within 30 days
after such receipt, the HFS Amount.
(d) The HFS Actuary shall deliver its report detailing the
calculation of the HFS Amount to HFS, Car Rental and ARAC as soon as reasonably
practicable. If ARAC shall disagree with the determination of the HFS Amount
made by the HFS Actuary, ARAC shall have the right within 30 days after receipt
of notice of such determination and back-up work papers to notify HFS that its
enrolled actuary (the "ARAC Actuary")(whose fees and expenses shall be paid by
ARAC) disagrees with the determination made by the HFS Actuary. If such
actuaries cannot agree on the HFS Amount within 30 days of the date of the
notice from ARAC to HFS, such amount shall be finally determined by another
enrolled actuary selected by agreement between the HFS Actuary and the ARAC
actuary, whose fees and expenses shall be borne solely by ARAC. HFS shall pay
the HFS Amount to ARAC no later than 5 business days following the final
determination of the HFS Amount. Upon the payment of the HFS Amount, neither
HFS, Car Rental nor any of their respective subsidiaries
12
shall have any further obligations whatsoever under or with respect to the ARAC
Retirement Plan.
Section 2.5 Pension Plan for Bargaining Hourly Employees.

all action necessary and appropriate to cause ARAC to (i) become the sole
sponsor of the Avis Rent A Car System, Inc. Pension Plan for Bargaining Hourly
Employees (the "Hourly Pension Plan") and (ii) assume and be solely responsible
for all assets, liabilities and obligations whatsoever under the Hourly
Pension Plan.
Section 2.6 Welfare Plans.
(a) As of the Separation (i) ARAC shall assume or retain and
shall be solely responsible for, or cause its insurance carriers to be
responsible for (A) all liabilities and obligations whatsoever that relate to
claims of ARAC Individuals, whether or not incurred prior to the Separation, in
connection with all claims under any Welfare Plan (including any Welfare Plan
providing for post-retirement benefits) and (B) all liabilities and obligations
whatsoever that relate to claims of Car Rental Individuals, but only to the
extent such claims were incurred prior to the Separation (whether or not a
13
claim was filed prior to the Separation) in connection with all claims under
any Welfare Plan (including any Welfare Plan providing for post-retirement
benefits), and (ii) Car Rental shall assume or retain and shall be solely
responsible for, or cause its insurance carriers to be responsible for, all
liabilities and obligations whatsoever that relate to claims of Car Rental
Employees, but only to the extent such claims are incurred after the
Separation, in connection with all claims under any Welfare Plan (including any
Welfare Plan providing for post-retirement benefits).
(b) Effective as of the Separation, ARAC shall amend the
Welfare Plans and take such other action necessary and appropriate to provide
that, during the Transition Period, each Car Rental Employee shall be deemed
not to have terminated employment with ARAC and its subsidiaries for purposes
of the Welfare Plans by virtue of the Separation so long as such employee
remains employed with Car Rental, any Car Rental/HFS Subsidiary or HFS. In
consideration for the benefits to be provided under the Welfare Plans to Car
Rental Employees in accordance with this Section 2.6, HFS shall pay to ARAC an
amount equal to all claims or premiums, as applicable, paid under the Welfare
Plans on behalf of Car Rental Employees during
14
the Transition Period, as well as ARAC's reasonable costs and expenses for
administering the Welfare Plans with respect to Car Rental Employees during the
Transition Period.
(c) Effective as of (i) the Separation Period, ARAC shall
take all action necessary and appropriate to assume each existing Welfare Plan
and (ii) the close of the Transition Period, Car Rental and HFS shall take all
action necessary and appropriate to either establish new welfare plans, or
provide existing welfare plans maintained by HFS or any of its subsidiaries,
to the Car Rental Employees. HFS shall take such further actions necessary and
appropriate to provide that under the terms of such welfare plans provided to
Car Rental Employees (whether such welfare plans are provided by HFS, Car
Rental or any of their respective subsidiaries), each Car Rental Employee shall
receive service credit for all past service with Car Rental, ARAC and their
respective subsidiaries as if such service had been rendered to Car Rental and
shall credit such Car Rental Employees with respect to deductibles, copayments,
out-of-pocket maximums and the like with amounts credited to such Car Rental
Employees under the corresponding Welfare Plan as of the close of the
Transition Period. In connection
15
with the foregoing, ARAC agrees to provide HFS or its designated insurance

necessary for HFS to establish any such welfare plan and to enroll such Car
Rental Employees.

17

18
spect to any employee liability or obligation assumed or retained as of the

appropriately reflected on the respective consolidated balance sheets as of
the Separation, respectively, of ARAC and Car Rental.
Section 2.12 Preservation of Rights To Amend or Terminate
Plans. No provisions of this Agreement shall be construed as a limitation on
the right of ARAC or Car Rental to amend any Plan or terminate its
participation therein which ARAC or Car Rental would otherwise have under the
terms of such Plan or otherwise, and no provision of this Agreement shall be
construed to create a right in any employee or former employee or beneficiary
of such employee or former employee under a Plan which such employee or former
employee or beneficiary would not otherwise have under the terms of the Plan
itself.
Section 2.13 Reimbursement; Indemnification. The parties
hereto acknowledge that ARAC, on the one hand, and Car Rental, on the other
hand, may incur costs and expenses (including, but not limited to,

in any event within 30 days of receipt from the other party of appropriate
verification, for all such costs and expenses reduced by the amount of any tax
reduction or recovery of tax benefit realized by ARAC or Car Rental, as the
case may be, in respect of the corresponding payment made by it. All
liabilities and obligations retained, assumed or indemnified by ARAC or any
ARAC Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, shall be deemed to be
ARAC Liabilities, as defined in the Separation Agreement, and all liabilities
retained, assumed or indemnified by Car Rental or any Car Rental/HFS Subsidiary
pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deemed to be Car Rental Liabilities, as
defined in the Separation Agreement, and, in each case, shall be subject to the
indemnification provisions set forth in Article IV thereof. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, ARAC shall be solely responsible for
legal and other fees, costs and expenses related to the amendment of any Plans
maintained by ARAC ("Amendment Costs") and shall reimburse HFS and Car Rental
for any Amendment Costs incurred by either of them.
