PART I

Item 1. Business

Our Company

Overview

We are one of the largest equipment rental providers in North America. We operate through an integrated network of 440 rental locations across ten regions in 43 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces and service customers primarily in the industrial or non-construction, and construction markets. For 2011, we generated 86.2% of our revenues from equipment rentals, and we derived the remaining 13.8% of our revenues from sales of used rental equipment, merchandise and other related items. We believe our focus on high margin rental revenues, active fleet management and superior customer service has enabled us to achieve attractive returns on capital employed over a business cycle.

We rent a broad selection of equipment, primarily to industrial or non-construction related companies, and construction companies, ranging from large equipment such as backhoes, forklifts, air compressors, scissor lifts, aerial work platform booms and skid-steer loaders to smaller items such as pumps, generators, welders and electric hand tools. We also sell used equipment, parts, merchandise and supplies for customers’ maintenance, repair and operations. As of December 31, 2011, our rental equipment fleet had an original equipment fleet cost of approximately $2.7 billion covering over 900 categories of equipment. We strive to differentiate our offerings through superior levels of equipment availability, reliability and service. The strength of our fleet lies in its condition. We actively manage the condition of our fleet in order to provide customers with well-maintained and reliable equipment. We believe our fleet is one of the best maintained among our key competitors, with 98% of our fleet current with its manufacturer’s recommended preventive maintenance at December 31, 2011. Our disciplined fleet management process supports us in maintaining rental rate discipline and optimizing fleet utilization and capital expenditures. We employ a high degree of equipment sharing and mobility within regions to increase equipment utilization and adjust the fleet size in response to changes in customer demand. Integral to our equipment rental operations is the sale of used equipment and in addition, we sell merchandise complementary to our rental activities.

Organizational Overview

Prior to November 27, 2006, RSC Holdings was wholly owned by Atlas Copco AB (“ACAB”) and Atlas Copco Airpower n.v. (“ACA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of ACAB (together with ACAB, “Atlas”). On October 6, 2006, Atlas announced that it had entered into a recapitalization agreement pursuant to which Ripplewood Holdings L.L.C. (“Ripplewood”) and Oak Hill Capital Partners (“Oak Hill” and collectively with Ripplewood, “the Sponsors”) would acquire 85.5% of RSC Holdings (the “Recapitalization”). The Recapitalization closed on November 27, 2006. Prior to the closing of the Recapitalization, RSC Holdings formed RSC Holdings I, LLC, which is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of RSC Holdings; RSC Holdings II, LLC, which is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of RSC Holdings I, LLC; and RSC Holdings III, LLC, which is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of RSC Holdings II, LLC. RSC Equipment Rental, Inc. is a direct subsidiary of RSC Holdings III, LLC; and RSC Equipment Rental of Canada Ltd., is a direct subsidiary of RSC Equipment Rental, Inc. RSC is the operating entity of RSC Holdings.

1

RSC Holdings is the sole member of RSC Holdings I, LLC, which, in turn, is the sole member of RSC Holdings II, LLC, which, in turn, is the sole member of RSC Holdings III, LLC. RSC Holdings III, LLC is the parent of RSC. Because RSC Holdings III, LLC is a limited liability company that does not have a Board of Directors, its business and affairs are managed by the Board of Directors of RSC Holdings, its ultimate parent.

As of December 31, 2011 Oak Hill owned 33.4% of RSC Holdings’ issued and outstanding common stock.

On December 15, 2011, RSC Holdings entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with URI pursuant to which RSC Holdings will be merged (the “Merger”) with and into URI, with URI continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger. Upon completion of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of RSC Holdings’ common stock (other than shares owned by RSC Holdings, URI or any of their direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, in each case not held on behalf of third parties, and shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn) will be converted into the right to receive (i) $10.80 in cash and (ii) 0.2783 of a share of URI common stock, in each case without interest. The board of directors of each of RSC Holdings and URI has unanimously approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement and has recommended that its stockholders vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger is expected to close by the end of the first half of 2012 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of stockholders and necessary regulatory approvals.

Business Strategy

Drive profitable volume growth. Through our high quality fleet, large scale and national footprint and superior customer service, we intend to take advantage of the long-term opportunities for profitable growth primarily within the North American equipment rental market by:

• continuing to drive the profitability of existing locations and pursuing same store growth;

• investing in and maintaining our high quality fleet to meet local customer demands;

• leveraging our reputation for superior customer service to increase our customer base;

• increasing our market penetration by opening new locations in targeted markets to leverage existing infrastructure and customer relationships;

• increasing our presence in complementary rental and service offerings to increase same store revenues, margins and return on investment;

• aligning incentives for local management teams with our strategy; and

• pursuing selected acquisitions in attractive markets, subject to economic conditions.

Prioritize profit margins, free cash flow generation and return on capital. We intend to manage our operations by continuing to:

• focus on the higher margin rental business;

• actively manage the quality, reliability and availability of our fleet and offer superior customer service to support our premium pricing strategy;

• evaluate each new investment in fleet based on local demand and expected returns;

• deploy and allocate fleet among our operating regions based on pre-specified return thresholds;

• use our size and market presence to achieve economies of scale in capital investment;

2

• actively sell under-utilized fleet to balance supply with demand, thereby right-sizing the fleet;

• close locations with unfavorable long-term prospects; and

• focus on industrial or non-construction growth by actively investing in people, branch locations and service offerings.

Further enhance our industry leading customer service. We believe that our position as a leading provider of rental equipment is driven in large part by our superior customer service. Continuing to provide superior customer service and maintaining our reputation for such service will provide us an opportunity to further expand our customer base and increase our share of the fragmented North American equipment rental market.

Business

Our business is focused on equipment rental, including sales of used rental equipment and the sale of merchandise that is related to the use of our rental equipment.

We offer for rent over 900 categories of equipment on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. The type of equipment that we offer ranges from large equipment such as backhoes, forklifts, air compressors, scissor lifts, aerial work platform booms and skid-steer loaders to smaller items such as pumps, generators, welders and electric hand tools.

We routinely sell used rental equipment and invest in new equipment to manage the size and composition of our fleet and to adjust to changes in demand for specific rental products. We realize what we believe to be attractive sales prices for our used equipment due to our rigorous preventive maintenance program. We sell used rental equipment primarily through our existing location network and, to a lesser extent through other means, including equipment auctions and brokers. As a convenience for our customers, we offer for sale a broad selection of contractor supplies, including safety equipment such as hard hats and goggles, consumables such as blades and gloves, tools such as ladders and shovels and certain other ancillary products. We also sell a small amount of new equipment.

Operations

We currently operate in two geographic divisions, the Gulf and Northern divisions, overseeing a total of ten operating regions. Each division is overseen by a divisional senior vice president and each region is headed by a regional vice president. Decisions regarding the acquisition and deployment of fleet are made by the executive management team, which includes the divisional senior vice presidents.

Our operating regions typically have six to seven districts headed by a district manager overseeing six to seven rental locations and each location is managed by a location manager. As of December 31, 2011 our Canadian region, which is part of the Northern Division, had four districts and 18 rental locations. In 2011, 2010 and 2009, 6.9%, 6.4% and 5.2%, respectively, of our revenue was derived from Canada. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, 6.2% and 6.2% of our long-lived assets, and 4.8% and 5.1% of our total assets were located in Canada. See Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements for further business segment and geographic information.

Operating within guidelines established and overseen by our executive management team, regional and district personnel are able to make decisions based on the needs of their customers. Our executive management team conducts monthly operating reviews of regional performance and also holds formal meetings with representatives of each operating region throughout the year. These meetings encompass operational and financial reviews, leadership development and regional near-term strategy. Regional vice presidents, district managers and location managers are responsible for management and customer service in their respective areas and are directly responsible for the financial performance of their respective region, district and location, and their variable compensation is tied to the profitability of their area.

Customers

We have long and stable relationships with most of our customers, including the majority of our top 20 accounts. During 2011, we serviced approximately 202,000 customers, primarily in the industrial or non-construction, and construction markets. During 2011, no one customer accounted for more than 2% of our rental revenues, and our top 10 customers combined represented less than 10% of our rental revenues. We do not believe the loss of any one customer would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We have a diversified customer base consisting of two major end-markets: industrial or non-construction; and construction markets. Our customers represent a wide variety of industries, such as, petrochemical, mining, paper/pulp, food processing and construction. Further, construction is comprised of different segments, including: office, power, commercial, healthcare and educational construction. Serving a number of different industries enables us to reduce our dependence on a single or limited number of customers in the same business. Activity in the construction market tends to be susceptible to seasonal fluctuations in certain parts of the country, resulting in changes in demand for our rental equipment.

Construction customers vary in size from national and regional to local companies and private contractors and typically make use of the entire range of rental equipment and supplies that we offer. Construction projects vary in terms of length, type of equipment required and location requiring responsive and flexible services.

Rental services for industrial or non-construction customers can be grouped into the following activities:

• “run and maintain,” which relates to day to day maintenance;

• “turnaround,” which relates to major planned general overhaul of operations; and

• “capital projects,” which relate to smaller expansion or modification work.

In our experience, industrial or non-construction customers engage in long-term service contracts with trusted suppliers to meet their equipment requirements. In order to capitalize on this trend, we operate rental yards on-site at the facilities of some of our largest industrial or non-construction customers pursuant to one to five year agreements that generally may be cancelled by either party upon 30 days’ notice. Under these agreements, we typically agree to service all of our customers’ equipment rental needs, including products we do not typically rent. The purpose of our one to five year agreements is to provide a framework for the business relationship in the event future rental transactions occur. Specifically, these agreements establish, among other things, the term of the onsite rental yard, administrative responsibilities, equipment availability, pricing, jobsite conditions, invoicing, dispute resolution, and other responsibilities. The fact that we operate an onsite rental yard is not a guarantee that a customer will have a rental need. Revenue is recognized if and when a customer rents equipment from one of our onsite yards at which time a separate rental agreement is executed. Rental revenue, which accrues in accordance with the rates outlined in the service contract, is recognized over the applicable rental period. We have also developed a proprietary software application, Total Control^®, which provides our industrial or non-construction customers with a single in-house software application that enables them to monitor and manage all their rental equipment. This software can be integrated into the customers’ enterprise resource planning system. Total Control^® is a unique customer service tool that enables us to develop strong, long-term relationships with our larger customers. Our customers are not charged for the use of Total Control^®, nor do we charge higher rates for rental equipment rented through Total Control^®.

Customer Service. To ensure prompt response to customer needs, we operate a 24/7 in-house call center, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage by providing our customers full access to all our employees on call, enabling appropriate support at any time. Our in-house call center staff is highly trained and has access to our customer related databases providing clients with best-in-class service. We also pursue a number of initiatives to assess and enhance customer satisfaction. Using an independent third party, we contact approximately 20,000 of our customers annually to determine their overall satisfaction levels. We also use an independent third party to test the quality of our service levels by performing secret shop calls to evaluate effectiveness with customers, identify coaching opportunities and to evaluate courtesy and staff knowledge.

Industry Overview

Based on industry sources, we estimate the U.S. construction equipment rental industry had rental revenues of approximately $25 billion in 2011. This represents a compound annual growth rate of approximately 6.5% since 1990.

The industry’s principal end-markets for rental equipment are industrial or non-construction and construction markets. While the construction industry has to date been the principal user of rental equipment, industrial or non-construction companies, utilities and others are increasingly using rental equipment for plant maintenance, turnaround projects and other operations. According to U.S. Department of Commerce data (which is preliminary and has not been adjusted for inflation), the value of non-residential construction put in place in the United States decreased 9% in 2009 compared to 2008, and decreased 15% in 2010 compared to 2009. For the eleven months ended November 30, 2011 the value of non-residential construction put in place in the United States decreased 3% compared to the eleven months ended November 30, 2010.

We believe that long-term industry growth, apart from reflecting general economic conditions and cyclicality is driven by end-user markets that increasingly recognize the many advantages of renting equipment rather than owning, including:

• avoiding the large capital investment required for equipment purchases;

• accessing a broad selection of equipment and selecting the equipment best suited for each particular job;

• reducing storage, maintenance and transportation costs; and

• accessing the latest technology without investing in new equipment.

Fleet

As of December 31, 2011, our rental fleet had an original equipment fleet cost of $2.7 billion covering over 900 categories of equipment, and in 2011, our rental revenues were $1,312.5 million. Rental terms for our equipment vary depending on the customer’s needs, and the average rental term in 2011 was approximately 13 days. We believe that the size of our purchasing program and the relative importance of our business to our suppliers allow us to purchase fleet at favorable prices and on favorable payment terms. We believe that our highly disciplined approach to acquiring, deploying, sharing, maintaining and divesting our fleet represents a key competitive advantage. The following table provides a breakdown of our fleet in terms of original equipment fleet cost as of December 31, 2011.

Fleet Management Process. We believe that our disciplined fleet management process, whereby new investments are evaluated on strict return guidelines and used equipment sales targets are set at a local level to right-size the fleet, supports optimal fleet utilization. Consistent with our decentralized operating structure, each region is responsible for the quality of its allocated fleet, providing timely fleet maintenance, fleet movement, sales of used equipment and fleet availability. This process is led by regional fleet directors who make investment/divestment decisions within strict return on investment guidelines. Local revenues are forecasted on a location-by-location basis. Regional vice presidents use this information to develop near term regional customer demand estimates and appropriately allocate investment requirements on the basis of targeted utilization and rental rates.

The regional fleet process is overseen by our corporate fleet management, which is responsible for the overall allocation of the fleet among and between the regions. We evaluate all electronic investment requests by regional fleet directors and develop and enforce a ceiling for the fleet size for each region based on short-term local outlook, return and efficiency requirements and need at the time, and identify under-utilized equipment for sale or internal transfer to right-size the fleet at a local and company level.

Corporate fleet management will accept a new capital investment request only if such investment is deemed to achieve a pre-specified return threshold and if the request cannot be satisfied through internal fleet reallocation. Divestments or fleet transfers are evaluated when the fleet generates returns below the pre-specified threshold. If corporate fleet management cannot identify a need for a piece of equipment in any region, the equipment is targeted for sale. Our rigorous preventive maintenance program enables us to realize attractive sales prices for used rental equipment relative to the underlying environment. We sell used rental equipment through our existing location network and, to a lesser extent through other means, including equipment auctions and brokers.

We also continuously monitor the profitability of our equipment through our information management systems. Each piece of equipment is tracked and evaluated on a number of performance criteria, including time utilization rate, average billing rate, preventive maintenance, age and, most importantly, return on investment. We utilize this data to help guide the transfer of equipment to locations where the highest utilization rates, highest prices and best returns can be achieved. Pricing decisions are made at a local level to reflect current market conditions. Daily reports, which allow for review of agreements by customer or contract, enable local teams to make real time adjustments to market conditions and monitor developing trends.

We made proprietary improvements to our information management systems to integrate our maintenance and reservation management systems, which prioritize equipment repairs based on customer reservations and time in shop. The majority of major repairs are outsourced to enable us to focus on maintenance and parts replacement. We implemented a rigorous preventive maintenance program that increases reliability, decreases maintenance costs and improves fleet availability and the ultimate sales price we realize on the sale of used equipment. At December 31, 2011, 98% of our fleet was current on its manufacturer’s recommended preventive maintenance.

Fleet Procurement. We believe that our size and focus on long-term supplier relationships enable us to purchase equipment directly from manufacturers at favorable prices and on favorable terms. We do not enter into long-term purchase agreements with equipment suppliers because we wish to preserve our ability to respond quickly and beneficially to changes in demand for rental equipment. To ensure security of supply, we do, however, maintain non-binding arrangements with our key suppliers and we communicate frequently with them so that they can plan their production capacity needs. Accordingly, original equipment manufacturers deliver equipment to our facilities based on our current needs in terms of quantity and timing. We have negotiated favorable payment terms with the majority of our equipment suppliers. We believe that our ability to purchase equipment on what we believe are favorable terms represents a key competitive advantage afforded to us by the scale of our operations.

Generally, we purchase rental equipment from two suppliers for each major category that we offer for rent. We believe that while selectively partnering with these existing suppliers, if needed, we could readily replace any of the suppliers if it were no longer advantageous to purchase equipment from them. Our major equipment suppliers include companies such as JLG, Skyjack, Bobcat and John Deere. In 2011, we purchased $616.2 million of new rental equipment compared to $327.1 million and $46.4 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

6

Fleet Condition. We believe our diverse equipment fleet is one of the best maintained and most reliable among our key competitors. At December 31, 2011, the average age of our fleet was 42 months, which improved from 44 months at December 31, 2010 due primarily to capital purchases. Through our fleet management process discussed above under “Fleet Management Process,” we actively manage the condition of our fleet to provide customers with well- maintained and reliable equipment and to support our premium pricing strategy.

Sales and Marketing. We market our products and services through:

• a branch-based sales force operating out of our network of locations;

• local and national advertising efforts;

• our self-service, web-based solution: RSC Online^®;

• specialized Business Development Managers focusing on regional and national customers; and

• specialized National Account Managers focusing on our largest strategic relationships.

Sales Force. We believe that our sales force is one of the industry’s most productive and highly trained. As of December 31, 2011, we had an inside sales team performing a variety of functions such as handling inbound customer rental requests and servicing customers at each branch and outside sales employees servicing existing customers and soliciting new business on construction or industrial sites. Our sales force uses a customer relationship software application to target customers in their specific area, and we develop customized marketing programs for use by our sales force by analyzing each customer group for profitability, buying behavior and product selection. In 2010, we converted our customer relationship management system from a proprietary platform to Salesforce.com. All members of our sales force are required to attend in-house training sessions to develop product and application knowledge, sales techniques and financial acumen. Our sales force is supported by regional sales and marketing managers, district sales managers and corporate marketing and sales departments.

RSC Online^®. We provide our customers with a self-service, web-based solution, RSC Online^®. Our customers can reserve equipment online, review reports, use our report writer tool to create customized reports, terminate rental equipment reservations, schedule pick-ups and make electronic payments 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, we maintain a home page on the Internet (www.rscrental.com) that includes a description of our products and services, our geographic locations and our online catalogue of used rental equipment for sale, as well as live 24/7 “click to chat” support.

Information Systems

We operate a highly customized rental information management system through which key operational and financial information is made available on a daily basis. Our management team uses this information to monitor current business activities closely, looking at customer trends and proactively managing changes in the marketplace. Our enterprise resource management system is comprised of third-party licensed software and a number of proprietary enhancements covering, among others, financial performance, fleet utilization, service, maintenance and pricing. The system fully integrates all location operations such as rentals, sales, service and cash management, with the corporate activities, including finance, fixed asset and inventory management. All rental transactions are processed real-time through a centralized server and the system can be accessed by employees at the point of sale to determine equipment availability, pricing and other relevant customer specific information. Primary business servers are outsourced including the provision of a disaster recovery system.

Members of our management can access all of these systems and databases throughout the day at all of our locations or remotely through a secure key to analyze items such as:

• fleet utilization and return on investment by individual asset, equipment category, location, district or region;

7

• pricing and discounting trends by location, district, region, salesperson, equipment category or customer;

• revenue trends by location, district, region, salesperson, equipment category or customer; and

• financial results and performance of locations, districts, regions and the overall company.

We believe that our use of information technology is a key component in our successful performance and that continued investment in this area will help us maintain and improve upon our customer satisfaction, responsiveness and flexibility.

Intellectual Property

We have registered the marks RSC and RSC Equipment Rental and certain other trademarks in the United States and Canada. We have not registered all of the trademarks we own and use in the business. Generally, registered trademarks have perpetual life, provided that the trademarks are renewed on a timely basis and continue to be used properly as trademarks.

Competition

The equipment rental industry is highly competitive and highly fragmented, with a few companies operating on a national scale and a large number of companies operating on a regional or local scale. We are one of the principal national-scale industry participants in the United States and Canada; the other national-scale industry participants being URI, Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation and Sunbelt Rentals. Certain of our key regional competitors are Neff Rental, Inc., NES, Ahern Rentals, Inc. and Sunstate Equipment Co. A number of individual Caterpillar dealers also participate in the equipment rental market in the United States and Canada.

Competition in the equipment rental industry is intense, and is defined by equipment availability, reliability, service and price. Our competitors may seek to compete aggressively on the basis of pricing or fleet availability. To the extent that we choose to match our competitors’ downward pricing, it could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. To the extent that we choose not to match or remain within a reasonable competitive distance from our competitors’ pricing, it could also have an adverse impact on our results of operations, as we may lose rental volume.

Business Environment and Outlook

Our revenues and operating results are driven in large part by activities in the industrial or non-construction market and the construction market.

The industrial or non-construction market generated approximately 60% of our rental revenues during the year ended December 31, 2011, while the construction market generated approximately 40% of our rental revenues. During 2009 both the industrial or non-construction and the construction market had weakened, resulting in a decrease in the demand for our rental equipment and downward pressure on our rental rates. During the second quarter of 2010 and continuing throughout the remainder of 2010, market conditions improved. This translated into strengthening demand for our rental equipment which continued into 2011, resulting in increased fleet on rent of 18.7% at December 31, 2011 as compared to December 31, 2010. The improvement in fleet on rent was achieved through increased utilization in 2011, which was 68.8%, 63.7% and 57.6% for the three years ending December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Although economic conditions in our underlying end markets remained relatively unchanged in 2011, we experienced increased demand for rental equipment. We believe that the increased demand in excess of the improvements in our end markets was generated by our customers increased willingness to rent rather than purchase equipment. We responded to this increase in demand by investing $616.2 million in rental fleet and improving utilization to 68.8% for the year ended December 31, 2011 or 510 basis points from 63.7% for the year ended December 31, 2010. Rental rates increased 4.9% in the year ended December 31, 2011.

8

We expect that the demand for rental equipment will continue to outpace our underlying end markets in the first quarter of 2012. We also expect fleet on rent, utilization and rental revenues to continue to compare favorably to the prior year during the first quarter of 2012. Rental rates are directly related to rental demand and we expect positive growth during the first quarter of 2012 over those rates achieved in the first quarter of 2011.

Employees

As of December 31, 2011, we had 4,721 employees. Employee benefits in effect include group life insurance, medical and dental insurance and a defined contribution benefit plan. Labor contracts covering the terms of employment of approximately 182 of our employees are presently in effect under 16 collective bargaining agreements with local unions relating to 31 separate rental locations in 15 U.S. states. We may be unable to negotiate new labor contracts on terms advantageous to us or without labor interruptions. We have had no material work stoppage as a result of labor problems during the last nine years. We believe our labor relations to be good.

Regulatory Matters

Environmental, Health and Safety Matters

Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. These laws regulate releases of petroleum products and other hazardous substances into the environment as well as storage, treatment, transport and disposal of wastes, wastewater, storm water and air quality and the remediation of soil and groundwater contamination. These laws also regulate our ownership and operation of tanks used for the storage of petroleum products and other regulated substances.

We have made, and will continue to make, expenditures to comply with environmental laws and regulations, including, among others, expenditures for the investigation and cleanup of contamination at or emanating from currently and formerly owned and leased properties, as well as contamination at other locations at which our wastes have reportedly been identified. Some of these laws impose strict and in certain circumstances joint and several liability on current and former owners or operators of contaminated sites for costs of investigation and remediation. We cannot assure you that compliance with existing or future environmental, health and safety requirements will not require material expenditures by us or otherwise harm our consolidated financial position, profitability or cash flow.

We have two facilities that are in various stages of environmental remediation. Our activity primarily relates to investigating and remediating soil and groundwater contamination at these facilities, which contamination may have been caused by historical operations (including operations conducted prior to our involvement at a site) or releases of regulated materials from underground storage tanks or other sources.

We rely heavily on outside environmental engineering and consulting firms to assist us in complying with environmental laws. While our environmental, health and safety compliance costs are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, we incur costs to purchase and maintain wash racks and storage tanks and to minimize any unexpected releases of regulated materials from such sources.

Transportation, Delivery and Sales Fleet

We lease vehicles for transportation and delivery of rental equipment and vehicles used by our sales force under capital leases with leases typically ranging from 50 to 96 months. Our delivery fleet includes tractor trailers, delivery trucks and service vehicles. The vehicles used by our sales force are primarily pickup trucks. Capital lease obligations amounted to $92.2 million and $77.8 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and we had approximately 3,862 and 3,600 units leased at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business is subject to a number of important risks and uncertainties. Based on the information currently known to us, we believe that the following information identifies all known material risk factors relating to our business. Any of these risks may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

11

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business has been and may continue to be hurt by an economic downturn, a decline in construction or industrial or non-construction activities, or a decline in the amount of equipment that is rented.

Weakness in construction or industrial or non-construction activity, or a decline in the desirability of renting equipment, may decrease the demand for our equipment or depress the prices we charge for our products and services. In addition, an economic downturn in those regions where we have significant operations could disproportionately harm our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We have identified below certain factors which may cause weakness, either temporary or long-term, in the construction and industrial or non-construction, sectors:

• weakness or a downturn in the overall economy, including the onset of, or prolonged exposure to, a recession;

• reduced access to capital markets for our customers’ funding of projects due to a weakness or downturn in the overall economy or otherwise;

• a decrease in expected levels of infrastructure spending, including lower than expected government funding for economic stimulus;

• an increase in the cost of construction materials;

• an increase in interest rates;

• adverse weather conditions or natural disasters, including an active hurricane season in the Gulf of Mexico region, where we have a large concentration of customers; or

• terrorism or hostilities involving the United States or Canada.

A weakness in the construction and industrial or non-construction sectors caused by these or other factors would harm our revenues, financial condition, profitability and cash flows as well as our ability to service debt, and may reduce residual values realized on the disposition of our rental equipment, negatively impacting our borrowing availability.

We face intense competition that may lead to our inability to increase or maintain our prices, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.

The equipment rental industry is highly competitive and highly fragmented. Many of the markets in which we operate are served by numerous competitors, ranging from national equipment rental companies like ourselves, to smaller multi-regional companies and small, independent businesses with a limited number of locations. We also may compete with dealers who both sell and rent equipment directly to customers and the open market for used equipment. Some of our principal competitors are less leveraged than we are, have greater financial resources, may be more geographically diversified, may have greater name recognition than we do and may be better able to withstand adverse market conditions within the industry. We generally compete on the basis of, among other things, quality and breadth of service, expertise, reliability, price and the size, mix and relative attractiveness of our rental equipment fleet, which is significantly affected by the level of our capital expenditures. If we are required to reduce or delay capital expenditures for any reason, including due to restrictions contained in the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, or the indentures governing our Notes, the resulting aging of our rental equipment fleet may cause us to lose our competitive advantage and adversely impact our pricing. In addition, our competitors are competing aggressively on the basis of pricing and may continue to drive prices further down. To the extent that we choose to match our competitors’ downward pricing, it could harm our results of operations. To the extent that we choose not to match or remain within a reasonable competitive distance from our competitors’ pricing, it could also harm our results of operations, as we may lose customers and rental volume.

12

We may also encounter increased competition from existing competitors or new market entrants in the future, which could harm our revenues, financial condition, profitability and cash flows as well as our ability to service debt.

Our revenues and operating results may fluctuate and unexpected or sustained periods of decline have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our revenues and operating results have varied historically from period to period and may continue to do so. We have identified below certain factors which may cause our revenues and operating results to vary:

• downturn in the North American economy, including the reduced access to capital markets for our customers’ funding of projects, or reduced government funding for infrastructure and other construction, any sustained periods of inflation or deflation, and the resulting negative impact it has on the financial strength of our customers or the cost of equipment that we purchase from our vendors;

• changes in demand for our equipment or the prices we charge due to changes in economic conditions, competition or other factors;

• the timing of expenditures for new equipment and the disposal of used equipment, including the ability to effectively and efficiently reduce our fleet size by selling in the open market for used equipment;

• changes in the interest rates applicable to our variable rate debt;

• general economic conditions in the markets where we operate;

• the cyclical nature of our customers’ businesses, particularly those operating in the construction and industrial or non-construction sectors;

• rental rate and fleet size changes in response to competitive factors;

• our inability to maintain our price levels during long-term periods of economic decline;

• bankruptcy or insolvency of our competitors leading to a larger than expected amount of used equipment in the open market;

• bankruptcy or insolvency of our customers, thereby reducing demand for used rental equipment;

• reduction in the demand for used equipment may result in lower sales prices and volume for used equipment sales;

• aging of our fleet, ultimately resulting in lower sales prices and volume for used equipment sales;

• seasonal rental patterns, with rental activity tending to be lowest in the winter;

• severe weather and seismic conditions temporarily affecting the regions where we operate;

• downturn in oil and petrochemical-related sectors from which we derive a large share of our industrial revenue;

• timing of acquisitions of companies and new location openings and related costs;

• labor shortages, work stoppages or other labor difficulties;

• other cost fluctuations, such as costs for employee-related compensation and healthcare benefits;

13

• disruptions of fuel supplies or increases in fuel prices;

• enactment of and compliance with new regulations affecting our operations;

• possible unrecorded liabilities of acquired companies;

• our effectiveness in identifying and integrating acquired businesses and new locations into our existing operations;

• our pending merger with URI; and

• possible write-offs or exceptional charges due to changes in applicable accounting standards, goodwill impairment, impairment of obsolete or damaged equipment or other assets, or the refinancing of our existing debt.

One or a number of these factors could harm our revenues, financial condition, profitability and cash flows, as well as our ability to service debt, and may reduce residual values realized on the disposition of our rental equipment, negatively impacting our borrowing availability.

The construction market is currently experiencing a downturn which, if sustained, could harm our business, liquidity and results of operations.

Our business derives a material portion of its revenues from customers in the construction market and the general slowdown and volatility of the U.S. economy is having an adverse effect on this business. From time to time, our business that serves the construction industry has also been adversely affected in various parts of the country by declines in construction starts due to, among other things, changes in tax laws affecting the real estate industry, high interest rates and reduced level of residential construction activity. Continued weakness in the U.S. economy and general uncertainty about current economic conditions will continue to pose a risk to our business as participants in this industry may postpone spending in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values, which would have a continued material negative effect on the demand for our products.

Our reliance on available borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and cash from operating activities is necessary to operate our business and subjects us to a number of risks, many of which are beyond our control.

We rely significantly on available borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility to operate our business. As of December 31, 2011, we had $628.1 million of available borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. The amount of available borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility is determined by a formula, subject to maximum borrowings, that includes several factors, most significant of which is the orderly liquidation value (“OLV”), of our rental fleet. The OLV of our fleet is calculated by a third party and reflects the average of prices paid for used rental equipment at retail and auction. If our OLV were to decrease significantly, or if our access to such financing were unavailable, reduced, or were to become significantly more expensive for any reason, including, without limitation, due to our inability to meet the coverage ratio or leverage ratio tests in the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, if such compliance was required, or to satisfy any other condition in the facilities or due to an increase in interest rates generally, we may not be able to fund daily operations which may cause material harm to our business, which could affect our ability to operate our business as a going concern. In addition, if any of our lenders experience difficulties that render them unable to fund future draws on the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, we may not be able to access all or a portion of these funds, which could have similar adverse consequences.

In addition, if we are unable to generate excess cash from operating activities after servicing our debt due to negative economic or industry trends including, among others, those set forth above under “—Our business has been and may continue to be hurt by an economic downturn, a decline in construction or industrial or non-construction, activities or a decline in the amount of equipment that is rented” and “—We face intense competition that may lead to our inability to increase or maintain our prices, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations,” and we are not able to finance new equipment acquisitions, we may not be able to make necessary equipment rental acquisitions at all.

14

The effects of the recent economic crisis have had and may continue to have a negative impact on our revenue, operating results, or financial condition.

The recent economic crisis has caused disruptions and extreme volatility in financial markets, increased rates of default and bankruptcy, and has reduced demand for equipment rental. These macroeconomic developments have had and could continue to have a negative impact on our revenue, profitability, financial condition and liquidity in a number of ways, such as reduced used equipment demand which in turn could have a negative impact on the OLV for our rental equipment fleet. Additionally, current or potential customers may delay or decrease equipment rentals or may delay paying us or be unable to pay us for prior equipment rentals and services. Also, if the banking system or the financial markets deteriorate further, fail to improve or remain volatile, the funding for and realization of capital projects may continue to decrease, which may continue to impact the demand for our rental equipment and services.

Our expenses could increase and our relationships with our customers could be hurt if there is an adverse change in our relationships with our equipment suppliers or if our suppliers are unable to provide us with products we rely on to generate revenues.

All of our rental equipment consists of products that we purchase from various suppliers and manufacturers, and over the last several years, we have reduced the number of suppliers from which we purchase rental equipment to approximately two suppliers for almost all the major equipment categories that we offer for rent. We rely on these suppliers and manufacturers to provide us with equipment which we then rent to our customers. We have not entered into any long-term equipment supply arrangements with manufacturers. To the extent we are unable to rely on these suppliers and manufacturers, due to an adverse change in our relationships with them, if they fail to continue operating as a going concern due to the current economic environment or otherwise, if they significantly raised their costs, if a large amount of our rental equipment is subject to simultaneous recalls that would prevent us from renting such rental equipment for a significant period of time, or such suppliers or manufacturers simply are unable to supply us with equipment or needed replacement parts in a timely manner, our business could be adversely affected through higher costs or the resulting potential inability to service our customers. We may experience delays in receiving equipment from some manufacturers due to factors beyond our control, including raw material shortages, and, to the extent that we experience any such delays, our business could be hurt by the resulting inability to service our customers and harm to our reputation. In addition, the payment terms we have negotiated with the suppliers that provide us with the majority of our equipment may not be available to us at a later time.

If we are unable to collect on contracts with customers, our operating results would be adversely affected.

One of the reasons some of our customers find it more attractive to rent equipment than own equipment is the need to deploy their capital elsewhere. Some of our customers may have liquidity issues and ultimately may not be able to fulfill the terms of their rental agreements with us. If we are unable to manage credit risk issues adequately, or if a large number of customers should have financial difficulties at the same time, our credit losses could increase above historical levels and our operating results would be adversely affected. Further, delinquencies and credit losses generally can be expected to increase during economic slowdowns or recessions.

If our operating costs increase as our rental equipment fleet ages and we are unable to pass along such costs, our earnings will decrease.

As our fleet of rental equipment ages, the cost of maintaining such equipment, if not replaced within a certain period of time, will likely increase. As of December 31, 2011, the average age of our rental equipment fleet was approximately 42 months, down two months from 44 months at December 31, 2010. Rental fleet purchases, which totaled $616.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, were at a pace sufficient to slightly reduce the overall fleet age. The costs of maintenance may materially increase in the future. Any material increase in such costs could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, profitability and financial condition.

15

Our operational measures designed to increase revenue while continuing to control operating costs may not generate the improvements and efficiencies we expect.

We have responded to the economic slowdown by employing a number of operational measures designed to increase revenue while continuing to pursue our strategy of reducing operating costs where available. The extent to which these strategies will achieve the desired goals and efficiencies in 2012 and beyond is uncertain, as their success depends on a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. Even if we carry out these measures in the manner we currently expect, we may not achieve the improvements or efficiencies we anticipate, or on the timetable we anticipate. There may be unforeseen productivity, revenue or other consequences resulting from our strategies that will adversely affect us. Therefore, there can be no guarantee that our strategies will prove effective in achieving desired profitability or margins.

The cost of new equipment we use in our rental equipment fleet could increase and therefore we may spend more for replacement equipment, and in some cases we may not be able to procure equipment on a timely basis due to supplier constraints.

The cost of new equipment used in our rental equipment fleet could increase, primarily due to factors beyond our control, such as inflation, complying with governmental regulations, higher interest rates, increased material costs, including increases in the cost of steel, which is a primary material used in most of the equipment we use, and increases in the cost of fuel, which is used in the manufacturing process and in delivering equipment to us. Such increases could materially adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations in future periods. In addition, based on changing demands of our customers, the types of equipment we rent to our customers may become obsolete resulting in a negative impact to our financial condition based on the increased capital expenditures required to replace the obsolete equipment, and our potential inability to sell the obsolete equipment in the used equipment market.

An impairment of our goodwill could have a material non-cash adverse impact on our results of operations.

We review goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. We have performed our annual impairment tests for goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2011 and based on our analyses, there was no goodwill impairment recognized during 2011. If we make changes in our business strategy or if external conditions adversely affect our business operations, we may be required to record an impairment charge for goodwill in the future, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our rental equipment fleet is subject to residual value risk upon disposition.

The market value of any given piece of rental equipment could be less than its depreciated value at the time it is sold. The market value of used rental equipment depends on several factors, including:

• the market price for new equipment of a like kind;

• wear and tear on the equipment relative to its age and the performance of preventive maintenance;

• the existence and capacities of different sales outlets;

• the time of year that it is sold;

• the age of the equipment at the time it is sold;

• worldwide and domestic demand for used equipment, including the amount of used equipment we, along with our competitors, supply to the used equipment market; and

• general economic conditions.

16

We include in income from operations the difference between the sales price and the depreciated value of an item of equipment sold. Changes in our assumptions regarding depreciation could change our depreciation expense as well as the gain or loss realized upon disposal of equipment. Sales of our used rental equipment at prices that fall significantly below our projections, or our inability to sell such equipment at all, could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

Disruptions in our information technology systems could limit our ability to effectively monitor and control our operations and adversely affect our operating results.

Our information technology systems facilitate our ability to monitor and control our operations and adjust to changing market conditions. Any disruptions in these systems or the failure of these systems to operate as expected could, depending on the magnitude of the problem, materially adversely affect our financial condition or operating results by limiting our capacity to effectively monitor and control our operations and adjust to changing market conditions in a timely manner. In addition, because our systems contain information about individuals and businesses, our failure to maintain the security of the data we hold, whether the result of our own error or the malfeasance or errors of others, could harm our reputation or give rise to legal liabilities leading to lower revenues, increased costs and other potential material adverse effects on our results of operations.

Our business relies to some extent on third-party contractors to provide us with various services to assist us with conducting our business, which could adversely affect our business upon the termination or disruption of our third-party contractor relationships.

Our operations rely on third-party contractors to provide us with timely services to assist us with conducting our business. Any material disruption, termination, or substandard provision of these services could adversely affect our brand, customer relationships, operating results and financial condition. In addition, if a third-party contractor relationship is terminated, we may be adversely affected if we are not able to enter into a similar agreement with an alternate provider in a timely manner or on terms that we consider favorable. Further, in the event a third-party relationship is terminated and we are unable to enter into a similar relationship, we may not have the internal capabilities to perform such services in a cost-effective manner.

Oak Hill or its affiliates may compete directly against us.

Corporate opportunities may arise in the area of potential competitive business activities that may be attractive to us as well as to Oak Hill or its affiliates, including through potential acquisitions by Oak Hill or its affiliates of competing businesses. Competition could intensify if an affiliate or subsidiary of Oak Hill were to enter into or acquire a business similar to our equipment rental operations. Oak Hill and its affiliates may be inclined to direct relevant corporate opportunities to entities which they control individually rather than to us. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that Oak Hill is under no obligation to communicate or offer any corporate opportunity to us, even if such opportunity might reasonably have been expected to be of interest to us or our subsidiaries.

Acquisition related activities could disrupt our business or have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

From time to time we may consider pursuing mergers or acquisitions, which may be significant. Any future material merger or acquisition would involve numerous risks including, without limitation:

• potential disruption of our ongoing business and distraction of management, including the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities;

• difficulty integrating the acquired business;

• availability of borrowed funds or common stock with sufficient market price to complete the acquisition;

• ability to obtain any requisite government or regulatory approvals;

17

• potential diversion of management and employee attrition, during the period prior to the completion of a potential merger or acquisition, and the potential effect on our business and relations with customers, service providers and other stakeholders, whether or not the potential merger or acquisition is completed;

• restrictions on the conduct of business prior to the completion of a proposed merger or acquisition, which may delay or prevent the undertaking of various business opportunities that may arise pending completion of the potential merger or acquisition;

• failure to achieve anticipated synergies, economies of scale and cost reductions within an expected time period;

• contractual restrictions that limit our ability to pursue alternative opportunities;

• damage to reputation and goodwill and payment of applicable termination fees and expenses due to failure to consummate a proposed merger or acquisition;

• potential for lawsuits and adverse judgments that may prevent a proposed merger or acquisition from becoming effective or becoming effective within the expected timeframe; and

• exposure to unknown, unexpected or unrecorded liabilities.

If we make acquisitions in the future, acquisition-related accounting charges may affect our balance sheet and results of operations. In addition, the financing of any significant merger or acquisition may result in changes in our capital structure, including the incurrence of additional indebtedness. We may not be successful in addressing these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with any mergers or acquisitions. For risk factors specifically related to the Merger, see “Risks Related to the Merger”.

If we fail to retain or attract key management and personnel, we may be unable to implement our business plan.

One of the most important factors in our ability to profitably execute our business plan is our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified personnel, including our Chief Executive Officer and operational management. Our success in attracting and retaining qualified people is dependent on the resources available in individual geographic areas and the impact on the labor supply due to general economic conditions as well as our ability to provide a competitive compensation package, including the implementation of adequate drivers of retention and rewards based on performance, and work environment. The departure of any key personnel and our inability to enforce non-competition agreements could have a negative impact on our business.

The impairment of financial institutions may adversely affect us.

We have exposure to counterparties with which we execute transactions, including U.S. and foreign commercial banks, insurance companies, investment banks, investment funds and other financial institutions, some of which may be exposed to bankruptcy, liquidity, default or similar risks, especially in connection with recent financial market turmoil. Many of these transactions could expose us to risk in the event of the bankruptcy, receivership, default or similar event involving a counterparty. For example, as of December 31, 2011, we had $628.1 million of available borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. If any of the lenders that are parties to the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility experience difficulties that render them unable to fund future draws on the facility, we may not be able to access all or a portion of these funds. The inability to make future draws on the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility or any new revolving facilities could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity which could negatively affect our business, results of operations or ability to maintain the overall quality of our rental equipment fleet.

18

We are exposed to various possible claims relating to our business and our insurance may not fully protect us against those claims.

We are exposed to various possible claims relating to our business. These possible claims include those relating to (1) personal injury or death caused by equipment rented or sold by us, (2) motor vehicle accidents involving our vehicles and our employees, (3) employment-related claims, (4) property damage and pollution related claims, and (5) commercial claims. Our insurance policies have deductibles or self-insured retentions of $1.0 million for general liability and $1.5 million for automobile liability, on a per occurrence basis; $0.5 million per occurrence for workers’ compensation claims; and $0.25 million per occurrence for pollution coverage. Currently, we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for the protection of our assets and operations. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and the outcome of some of these claims, proceedings and other contingencies could require us to take or refrain from taking actions which could adversely affect our operations or could result in large verdicts. Additionally, defending against claims, lawsuits and proceedings may involve significant expense and diversion of management’s attention and resources from other matters. Our insurance may not fully protect us for certain types of claims, such as claims for punitive damages or for damages arising from intentional misconduct, which are often alleged in third party lawsuits. In addition, we may be exposed to uninsured liability at levels in excess of our policy limits.

We establish and regularly evaluate our loss reserves to address claims, or portions thereof, not covered by our insurance policies. If we are found liable for any significant claims that exceed our loss reserves or are not covered by insurance, our liquidity and operating results could be materially adversely affected. It is possible that our insurance carrier may disclaim coverage for any class action and derivative lawsuits against us. It is also possible that some or all of the insurance that is currently available to us will not be available in the future on economically reasonable terms or not available at all. In addition, whether we are covered by insurance or not, certain claims may have the potential for negative publicity surrounding such claims, which could adversely affect our business and lead to lower revenues, as well as additional similar claims being filed.

We may be unable to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting and comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other related provisions of the U.S. securities laws.

We are required to file certain reports, including annual and quarterly periodic reports, under the Exchange Act. The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every reporting company to include a management report on such company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. An independent registered public accounting firm must report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Compliance with the reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws places additional burdens on our management, operational and financial resources and systems. To the extent that we are unable to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and/or disclosure controls and procedures, we may be unable to produce reliable financial reports and/or public disclosure, detect and prevent fraud and comply with the reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws, on a timely basis. Any such failure could harm our business or result in the violation of the reporting covenant in the indentures governing the Notes and the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. In addition, failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and/or disclosure controls and procedures could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and public disclosure and a loss of customers, which in turn could harm our business.

Environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and requirements and the costs of complying with them, or any liability or obligation imposed under them, could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. These laws regulate releases of petroleum products and other hazardous substances into the environment, the storage, treatment, transport and disposal of wastes, and the remediation of soil and groundwater contamination. These laws also regulate our ownership and operation of tanks used for the storage of petroleum products and other regulated substances. In addition, certain of our customers require us to maintain certain safety levels. Failure to maintain such levels could lead to a loss of such customers.

We have made, and will continue to make, expenditures to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including, among others, expenditures for the investigation and cleanup of contamination at or emanating from currently and formerly owned and leased properties, as well as contamination at other locations at which our wastes have reportedly been identified. Some of these laws impose strict and in certain circumstances joint and several liability on current and former owners or operators of contaminated sites and other potentially responsible parties for investigation, remediation and other costs.

19

In addition, as climate change issues have become more prevalent, federal, state and local governments, as well as foreign governments, have begun to respond to these issues with increased legislation and regulations. Such legislation and regulations could negatively affect us, our suppliers and our customers. This may cause us to incur additional direct costs in complying with any new environmental legislation or regulations, as well as increased indirect costs resulting from our suppliers, customers, or both incurring additional compliance costs that could get passed through to us.

Compliance with existing or future environmental, health and safety requirements may require material expenditures by us or otherwise harm our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Our costs of doing business could increase as a result of changes in federal, state, provincial or local regulations.

Our operations are principally affected by various statutes, regulations and laws in the U.S. states and Canadian provinces in which we operate. While we are not engaged in a “regulated” industry, we are subject to various laws applicable to businesses generally, including laws affecting land usage, zoning, transportation, information security and privacy, labor and employment practices, competition, immigration and other matters. In addition, certain new or proposed regulations with respect to the banking and finance industries, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and amendments to Regulation AB, could restrict our access to certain financing arrangements and increase our financing costs, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations. Further, we may be indirectly exposed to changes in regulations which affect our customers. Changes in federal, state, provincial or local regulations governing our business could increase our costs of doing business. Moreover, changes to federal, state, provincial and local tax regulations could increase our costs of doing business. We cannot provide assurance that we will not incur material costs or liabilities in connection with regulatory requirements. We cannot predict whether future developments in law and regulations concerning our businesses will affect our business financial condition and results of operations in a negative manner.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights that are material to our business.

Our ability to compete effectively depends in part upon protection of our rights in trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights we own or license, including proprietary software. Our use of contractual provisions, confidentiality procedures and agreements, and trademark, copyright, unfair competition, trade secret and other laws to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights may not be adequate. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights and protect our proprietary information, or to defend against claims by third parties that our services or our use of intellectual property infringe their intellectual property rights. Any litigation or claims brought by or against us could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources. A successful claim of patent, trademark, copyright or other intellectual property infringement against us could prevent us from providing services, which could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, a breakdown in our internal policies and procedures may lead to an unintentional disclosure of our proprietary, confidential or material non-public information, which could in turn harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Certain existing stockholders of RSC Holdings have significant control over our company and large ownership positions that could be sold, transferred or distributed.

Oak Hill and RSC Holdings are the current parties to an Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement dated October 6, 2011 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), pursuant to which Oak Hill currently has the right to nominate three members of RSC Holdings’ Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2011, Oak Hill owned 33.4% of the outstanding shares of our common stock and may exercise control over matters requiring stockholder approval of our policies and affairs. Due to the Stockholders Agreement, Oak Hill has significant influence with respect to: (1) the election of RSC Holdings’ Board of Directors; (2) the approval or disapproval of any other matters requiring

20

stockholder approval; and (3) the affairs, policies and direction of our business. The interests of RSC Holdings’ existing stockholders may conflict with the interests of other security holders. In addition, actual or possible sales, transfers or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock by Oak Hill, or the perception of the forgoing by investors, may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline and could adversely affect our ability to obtain financing in the future.

We face risks related to changes in our ownership.

Certain of our agreements with third parties, including our real property leases, require the consent of such parties in connection with any change in ownership of us. We will generally seek such consents and waivers; although we may not seek certain consents if our not obtaining them will not, in our view, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. If we fail to obtain any required consent or waiver, the applicable third parties could seek to terminate their agreement with us and, as a result, our ability to conduct our business could be impaired until we are able to enter into replacement agreements, which could harm our results of operations or financial condition.

Risks Related to the Merger

Failure to consummate the Merger could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Merger is subject to many conditions which must be satisfied or waived in order to complete the Merger, including, but not limited to, receipt of the requisite RSC Holdings and URI stockholder approvals and receipt of the necessary regulatory consents (including anti-trust) and approvals. Although we expect, as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, to consummate the Merger, it is possible that the Merger may not occur. If the Merger is not completed for any reason, the price of our common stock may decline to the extent that the market price of our common stock reflects positive market assumptions that the Merger will be completed or based on the market’s perception as to why the Merger was not completed. In addition, if the Merger is not consummated a comparable transaction may not occur in the future.

We may also be subject to additional risks if the Merger is not completed, including:

• under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, we may be required to pay URI a termination fee of $60 million or reimburse the expenses of URI up to a maximum of $20 million;

• substantial costs related to the Merger, such as legal, accounting, filing, financial advisory and financial printing fees may not be recovered; and

• potential disruption to our business and distraction of our workforce and management team.

There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing of the Merger will be satisfied or waived or that the Merger will be completed.

Whether or not the Merger is consummated, the announcement and pendency of the transaction creates uncertainty and could impact or cause disruption in our business and could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

While the Merger is pending the attention of our management may be directed towards the completion of the Merger and may be diverted from the day to day business operations of RSC. In addition, uncertainty about the effects of the Merger on employees and members may have an adverse effect on us. Although we are taking steps to reduce any adverse effects, these uncertainties may impair their ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the transaction is completed and for a period of time thereafter. Additionally, the uncertainty could cause our

21

customers, suppliers, partners and others that deal with us to defer entering into contracts with us or making other decisions concerning RSC or seek to change or cancel existing business relationships with us. The uncertainty and difficulty of integration in the combined company could also cause our key employees to lose motivation or leave their employment.

The Merger Agreement also restricts us from taking certain actions (including, among others, making certain acquisitions, amending organizational documents, making, declaring or paying certain dividends, entering into certain material contracts and incurring certain indebtedness) until the Merger is completed or the Merger Agreement is terminated. These restrictions may prevent us from pursuing otherwise attractive business opportunities and making other changes to our business in response to events or circumstances that may arise prior to the completion of the Merger. We may also become subject to lawsuits and adverse judgments related to the Merger, causing disruption in our business.

The Merger is subject to the receipt of consents and clearances from regulatory authorities that may impose conditions that could have an adverse effect on us or that could delay or, if not obtained, could prevent completion of the Merger.

Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the Competition Act (Canada), the Merger cannot be completed until each of URI and RSC Holdings has made the required notifications and given certain information and materials to the Federal Trade Commission and/or the Department of Justice in the United States and the Commissioner of Competition in Canada and the specified waiting periods have expired or been terminated. Although each of URI and RSC Holdings has agreed in the Merger Agreement to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the requisite governmental approvals, the necessary approvals may not be obtained, and there may be adverse consequences to our business resulting from the failure to obtain these regulatory approvals or from conditions that could be imposed in connection with obtaining these approvals, including divestitures or other operating restrictions upon RSC Holdings and its subsidiaries.

The Merger Agreement limits RSC’s ability to pursue alternatives to the Merger.

Under the Merger Agreement, RSC Holdings has agreed that it will not solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage any inquiries or proposals, engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations, or provide to any person any non-public information or data, in each case regarding any “acquisition proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make such an acquisition proposal. These restrictions are, however, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, RSC Holdings is subject to such “no-shop” provisions until the earlier of (i) the effective time of the Merger and (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. Furthermore, under specified circumstances, RSC Holdings or URI may be required to pay a termination fee of $60 million to the other party if the Merger is not completed, including in the event RSC Holdings or URI breaches its “no-shop” provisions in any material respect or terminates the Merger Agreement to accept a “superior proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement). RSC Holdings or URI may also be required to reimburse the other party for its expenses, up to a maximum amount of $20 million under certain circumstances, in the event its stockholders do not approve the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

These provisions may discourage a potential competing acquiror that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of RSC Holdings from considering or proposing that acquisition even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher price per share than that to be paid in the Merger, or may result in a potential competing acquiror proposing to pay a lower per share price to acquire RSC Holdings than it might otherwise have proposed to pay.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness

We have substantial debt, which could adversely affect our financial condition, our ability to obtain financing in the future and our ability to react to changes in our business and make payments on our indebtedness.

22

We have a substantial amount of debt. As of December 31, 2011, we had $2,322.3 million of debt outstanding. Our substantial debt could have important consequences. For example, it could:

• make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations to the holders of our Notes and to the lenders under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, resulting in possible defaults on and acceleration of such debt;

• require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments on our debt, which would reduce the availability of our cash flow from operations to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate purposes;

• increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including interest rate fluctuations, because a portion of our borrowings, including under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, bears interest at variable rates;

• cause credit rating agencies to lower our credit ratings, which would increase our cost of borrowing and could adversely affect our access to capital markets;

• place us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors with proportionately less debt or comparable debt at more favorable interest rates;

• limit our ability to refinance our existing indebtedness on favorable terms or at all or borrow additional funds in the future for, among other things, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or debt service requirements;

• limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changing conditions in our business and industry; and

• limit our ability to react to competitive pressures, or make it difficult for us to carry out capital spending that is necessary or important to our growth strategy and our efforts to improve operating margins.

Any of the foregoing impacts of our substantial indebtedness could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Despite our current indebtedness levels, we and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional debt, which could further exacerbate the risks associated with our current substantial debt.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. The terms of the instruments governing our indebtedness do not prohibit us or fully prohibit us or our subsidiaries from doing so. As of December 31, 2011, our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility provided us commitments for additional aggregate borrowings of approximately $1,210.0 million subject to, among other things, our maintenance of a sufficient borrowing base under such facility. The New Senior ABL Revolving Facility permits additional borrowings beyond the committed financing under such facility under certain circumstances. If new indebtedness is added to our current debt levels, the related risks that we now face would increase. In addition, the instruments governing our indebtedness do not prevent us or our subsidiaries from incurring obligations that do not constitute indebtedness.

Restrictive covenants in certain of the agreements and instruments governing our indebtedness may adversely affect our financial and operational flexibility.

The New Senior ABL Revolving Facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to:

• incur additional indebtedness or provide guarantees;

• engage in mergers, acquisitions or dispositions of assets;

• enter into sale-leaseback transactions;

• make dividends or other restricted payments;

23

• prepay other indebtedness;

• engage in certain transactions with affiliates;

• make investments;

• change the nature of our business;

• incur liens;

• enter into currency, commodity and other hedging transactions; and

• amend specified debt agreements.

In addition, under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, we will become subject to additional borrowing base reporting requirements upon excess availability falling below $100.0 million. In addition, we will come under close supervision by our lenders and we will then be subject to financial covenants, including covenants that will obligate us to maintain (1) a specified leverage ratio of 5.00 to 1.00, and (2) a specified fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 upon excess availability falling below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. Our ability to comply with these covenants in future periods and our available borrowing capacity under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility will depend on our ongoing financial and operating performance, which in turn will be subject to economic conditions and to financial, market and competitive factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our ability to comply with these covenants in future periods will also depend substantially on the pricing of our products and services, our success at implementing cost reduction initiatives and our ability to successfully implement our overall business strategy.

Each of the Notes’ indentures contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to:

• incur additional debt;

• pay dividends or distributions on their capital stock or repurchase their capital stock;

• make certain investments;

• create liens on their assets to secure debt;

• enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

• create limitations on the ability of the restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or distributions to their respective parents;

• merge or consolidate with another company; and

• transfer and sell assets.

These covenants could have a material adverse effect on our business by limiting our ability to take advantage of financing, merger and acquisition or other corporate opportunities and to fund our operations. Also, although the Notes’ indentures limit our ability to make restricted payments, these restrictions are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications.

The breach of any of these covenants or restrictions could result in a default under either the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility or such indentures that would permit the applicable lenders or noteholders, as the case may be, to declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest. In any such case, we may be unable to make borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and may not be

24

able to repay the amounts due under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the Notes. Any of the events described in this paragraph could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and could cause us to become bankrupt or insolvent.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to make payments on all of our debt, and our ability to refinance all or a portion of our debt or obtain additional financing depends on many factors beyond our control. As a result, we may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under such indebtedness, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance our obligations under, our debt, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to financial and business factors, many of which may be beyond our control. We may not maintain a level of cash flow from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. If our cash flow and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets, seek to obtain additional equity capital or restructure our debt. In the future, our cash flow and capital resources may not be sufficient for payments of interest on and principal of our debt, and such alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations. We may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness or obtain additional financing, particularly because of our anticipated high levels of debt and the debt incurrence restrictions imposed by the agreements governing our debt, as well as prevailing market conditions. In the absence of such operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. The instruments governing our indebtedness, restrict our ability to dispose of assets and use the proceeds from any such dispositions. We may not be able to consummate those sales, or if we do, the timing of any such sales may not be advantageous to us and the proceeds that we realize may not be adequate to meet debt service obligations when due.

A significant portion of our outstanding indebtedness is secured by substantially all of our consolidated assets. As a result of these security interests, such assets would only be available to satisfy claims of our general creditors or to holders of our equity securities if we were to become insolvent to the extent the value of such assets exceeded the amount of our indebtedness and other obligations. In addition, the existence of these security interests may adversely affect our financial flexibility.

Indebtedness under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the 2017 Notes are secured by a lien on substantially all our assets, including pledges of substantially all of the assets of RSC Holdings III, LLC, which consist primarily of the capital stock of RSC and, in the case of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, pledges of substantially all of the assets of RSC Holdings II, LLC, which consist primarily of the capital stock of RSC Holdings III, LLC. The 2014 Notes, the 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes are unsecured and therefore do not have the benefit of such collateral. Accordingly, if an event of default were to occur under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility or the 2017 Notes, the senior secured lenders under such facility or the holders of the 2017 Notes would have a prior right to our assets, to the exclusion of our general creditors, including the holders of our 2014 Notes, 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes. In that event, our assets would first be used to repay in full all indebtedness and other obligations secured by them (including all amounts outstanding under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the 2017 Notes), resulting in all or a portion of our assets being unavailable to satisfy the claims of our unsecured indebtedness.

As of December 31, 2011, substantially all of our consolidated assets, including our equipment rental fleet, had been pledged for the benefit of the lenders under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the holders of the 2017 Notes. As a result, the lenders under such facility and the holders of the 2017 Notes would have a prior claim on such assets in the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization, and we may not have sufficient funds to pay all of our creditors and holders of our unsecured indebtedness may receive less, ratably, than the holders of our secured debt, and may not be fully paid, or may not be paid at all, even when other creditors receive full payment for their claims. In that event, holders of our equity securities would not be entitled to receive any of our assets or the proceeds therefrom. In addition, the pledge of these assets and other restrictions may limit our flexibility in raising capital for other purposes. Because substantially all of our assets are pledged under these financing arrangements, our ability to incur additional secured indebtedness or to sell or dispose of assets to raise capital may be impaired, which could have an adverse effect on our financial flexibility.

25

An increase in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing our indebtedness and could reduce our profitability.

Indebtedness we have and may incur under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility bears interest at variable rates. As a result, an increase in interest rates, whether because of an increase in market interest rates or an increase in our own cost of borrowing, would increase the cost of servicing our indebtedness and could materially reduce our profitability. In addition, recent turmoil in the credit markets has reduced the availability of debt financing, which may result in increases in the interest rates and borrowing spreads at which lenders are willing to make future debt financing available to us. The impact of such an increase would be more significant than it would be for some other companies because of our substantial indebtedness.

Risks Related to our Common Stock and Market and Economic Factors

Our operating and financial performance in any given period might not meet the guidance we may have provided to the public.

We may provide public guidance on our expected operating and financial results for future periods. Although we believe that this guidance provides investors and analysts with a better understanding of management’s expectations for the future, and is useful to our investors and potential investors, such guidance is comprised of forward-looking statements subject to the risks and uncertainties described in this report and in our other public filings and public statements. Actual results may differ from the projected guidance we may provide. If in the future, our operating or financial results for a particular period do not meet the guidance we may provide, or the expectations of investment analysts, or if we reduce our guidance for future periods, the market price of RSC Holdings’ common stock could significantly decline.

The certificate of incorporation, and by-laws of RSC Holdings and Delaware law may discourage takeovers and business combinations that its stockholders might consider in their best interests.

A number of provisions in the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of RSC Holdings may have the effect of delaying, deterring, preventing or rendering more difficult a change in control of RSC Holdings that our stockholders might consider in their best interests. These provisions include:

• establishment of a classified Board of Directors, with staggered terms;

• granting to the Board of Directors sole power to set the number of directors and to fill any vacancy on the Board of Directors, whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number of directors or otherwise;

• limitations on the ability of stockholders to remove directors;

• the ability of the Board of Directors to designate and issue one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval, the terms of which may be determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors;

• prohibition on stockholders from calling special meetings of stockholders;

• establishment of advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations for election to the Board of Directors at stockholder meetings; and

• prohibiting stockholders from acting by written consent.

These provisions may prevent the stockholders of RSC Holdings from receiving the benefit from any premium to the market price of our common stock offered by a bidder in a takeover context. Even in the absence of a takeover attempt, the existence of these provisions may adversely affect the prevailing market price of RSC Holdings’ common stock if they are viewed as discouraging takeover attempts in the future. In addition, RSC Holdings has opted out of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which would have otherwise imposed additional requirements regarding mergers and other business combinations.

26

The certificate of incorporation and by-laws of RSC Holdings may also make it difficult for stockholders to replace or remove RSC Holdings management. These provisions may facilitate management entrenchment that may delay, deter, render more difficult or prevent a change in our control, which may not be in the best interests of its stockholders.

Item 2. Properties

As of December 31, 2011, we operated through an integrated network of 440 rental locations across 43 states in the United States and three Canadian provinces. Of these locations, 422 were in the United States and 18 were in Canada. As of December 31, 2010, we operated 454 rental locations. Of these locations, 435 were in the United States and 19 were in Canada. We lease the real estate for all but three of our locations. The majority of our locations have remaining lease terms of less than 60 months and contain renewal options.

Our rental locations are generally situated in industrial or commercial zones. The typical location is approximately 8,500 square feet in size, located on approximately 2.0 acres and includes a customer service center, an equipment service area and storage facilities for equipment. Our corporate headquarters are located in Scottsdale, Arizona, where we occupy approximately 44,825 square feet under a lease that expires in 2013.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We are party to legal proceedings and potential claims arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims related to employment matters, contractual disputes, personal injuries and property damage. In addition, various legal actions, claims and governmental inquiries and proceedings are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against us and our subsidiaries.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those discussed above, could be decided unfavorably to us or any of our subsidiaries involved. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against us, we do not believe that any current pending legal proceedings to which we are a party will materially harm our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Market Information

Our equity securities are not publicly traded and are 100% owned by RSC Holdings II, LLC. RSC Holdings is the ultimate parent of RSC Holdings II, LLC.

Dividends

RSC Holdings did not declare or pay any cash dividends on its common stock during fiscal year 2011 or 2010. RSC Holdings does not have a formal dividend policy. The Board of Directors periodically considers the advisability of declaring and paying dividends in light of existing circumstances. RSC Holdings ability to pay dividends to holders of its common stock is limited as a practical matter by the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the indentures governing the Notes, insofar as RSC Holdings may seek to pay dividends out of funds made available to it, because its subsidiaries’ debt facilities directly or indirectly restrict its subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make loans to it.

(1) In 2011, in connection with our pending Merger with URI we incurred approximately $7.7 million of transaction expenses and paid approximately $3.3 million in discretionary bonuses to certain members of our senior management team related to the execution of the Merger Agreement.

In conjunction with the Recapitalization, we entered into a monitoring agreement whereby we would pay management fees of $1.5 million per quarter to the Sponsors. The monitoring agreement was terminated in connection with our 2007 initial public offering and a $20.0 million termination fee (also included in management fees) was paid.

(2) Loss on extinguishment of debt, net was $15.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and consists of (i) the write-off of $5.1 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with our Second Lien Term Facility, which we repaid in January 2011, (ii) the write-off of $2.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and $5.6 million of call premiums associated with partial repayment of our 2014 Notes in February 2011, and (iii) the write-off of $2.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which was replaced with the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility in February 2011.

(Gain) on extinguishment of debt, net for the year ended December 31, 2009 consists of a $17.6 million net gain from the repayment of debt outstanding under the Second Lien Term Facility offset by a $3.7 million loss associated with the repayment of our Old Senior ABL Term Loan. The $17.6 million net gain associated with the

31

repayment of our Second Lien Term Facility includes a $26.9 million gain, which represents the difference between the carrying value of debt repaid under the Second Lien Term Facility and the repurchase price offset by $2.9 million of creditor and third party fees incurred in connection with the repayment and the associated amendments to our Old Senior ABL Facilities credit agreement and Second Lien Term Facility agreement as well as $6.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs that were expensed. The $3.7 million loss from the our Old Senior ABL Term Loan includes $1.4 million of creditor fees incurred to amend the Old Senior ABL Facilities credit agreement in connection with the repayment of the Old Senior ABL Term Loan and $2.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs that were expensed.

Loss on extinguishment of debt, net for the year ended December 31, 2007 includes a $4.6 million prepayment penalty related to the $230.7 million repayment of Second Lien Term Facility debt and the write-off of $5.0 million of deferred financing costs associated with the repayment.

(3) Fleet utilization is defined as the average aggregate dollar value of equipment rented by customers (based on original equipment fleet cost) during the relevant period, divided by the average aggregate dollar value of all equipment owned (based on original equipment fleet cost) during the relevant period.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We are one of the largest equipment rental providers in North America. We operate through an integrated network of 440 rental locations across ten regions in 43 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces and service customers primarily in the industrial or non-construction, and construction markets. We rent a broad selection of equipment ranging from large equipment such as backhoes, forklifts, air compressors, scissor lifts, aerial work platform booms and skid-steer loaders to smaller items such as pumps, generators, welders and electric hand tools. We also sell used equipment, parts, merchandise and supplies for customers’ maintenance, repair and operations and new equipment.

For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, we generated approximately 86.2%, 85.9% and 83.6% of our revenues from equipment rentals, respectively, and we derived the remaining 13.8%, 14.1% and 16.4% of our revenues from sales of used rental equipment, merchandise and other related items, respectively.

The following table summarizes our total revenues, loss before benefit for income taxes and net loss for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 (in 000s):

	Years Ended December 31,
	2011			2010			2009
Total revenues	$	1,522,214		$	1,234,424		$	1,283,454
Loss before benefit for income taxes		(40,418	)		(117,235	)		(96,685	)
Net loss		(29,904	)		(73,516	)		(59,360	)

We manage our operations through the application of a disciplined, yet highly flexible business model, in which we utilize various financial and operating metrics to measure our operating performance and make decisions on the acquisition and disposal of rental fleet and the allocation of resources to and among our locations. Key metrics that we regularly review on a consolidated basis include Adjusted EBITDA, fleet utilization, average fleet age and original equipment fleet cost. The following is a summary of these key operating metrics:

	Years Ended December 31,
	2011			2010			2009
Adjusted EBITDA (in millions) (a)	$	560.5		$	393.3		$	413.7
Fleet utilization (b)		68.8	%		63.7	%		57.6	%
Average fleet age at period end (months) (c)		42			44			40
Original equipment fleet cost at period end (in millions) (d)	$	2,666		$	2,345		$	2,324

(a) Defined as consolidated net (loss) income before net interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization and before certain other items, including (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net, merger costs, share-based compensation and other (income) expense, net. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under GAAP. See reconciliation between net (loss) income and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities and Adjusted EBITDA under “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Adjusted EBITDA”.

(b) Defined as the average aggregate dollar value of equipment rented by customers (based on Original Equipment Fleet Cost or “OEC”) during the relevant period, divided by the average aggregate dollar value of all equipment owned (based on OEC) during the relevant period.

(c) Defined as the number of months since an equipment unit was first placed in service, weighted by multiplying individual equipment ages by their respective original costs and dividing the sum of those individual calculations by the total original cost. Equipment refurbished by the original equipment manufacturer is considered new.

(d) Defined as the original dollar value of rental equipment purchased from the original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”). Fleet purchased from non-OEM sources is assigned a comparable OEC dollar value at the time of purchase.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, our Adjusted EBITDA increased $167.2 million, or 42.5%, from $393.3 million in 2010 to $560.5 million in 2011. The increase is due primarily to a $164.1 million increase in equipment rental margins, excluding depreciation, and by a $33.0 million increase in used rental equipment sales margins. Equipment rental margins were higher during 2011 due to a 4.9% increase in rental rates and improved operating efficiencies. Used rental equipment sales margins were higher during 2011 due to an improvement in margins on used rental equipment sold through both retail and auction channels.

For the year ended December 31, 2011 our fleet utilization increased 510 basis points as compared to the prior year. The increase was due to rising demand for our rental equipment. Market conditions improved during 2011 resulting in strengthening demand for our rental equipment as fleet on rent increased approximately 18.7% at December 31, 2011 as compared to December 31, 2010. This compares to an increase of approximately 22.8% at December 31, 2010 as compared to December 31, 2009.

Average fleet age at December 31, 2011 was 42 months, down two months, from 44 months at December 31, 2010. Rental fleet purchases, which totaled $616.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, were at a pace sufficient to slightly reduce overall fleet age.

For trends affecting our business and the markets in which we operate see “Business Environment and Outlook,” “Recent Developments” and “Factors Affecting our Results of Operations” each presented below and the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Business Environment and Outlook

Our revenues and operating results are driven in large part by activities in the industrial or non-construction market and the construction market.

The industrial or non-construction market generated approximately 60% of our rental revenues during the year ended December 31, 2011, while the construction market generated approximately 40% of our rental revenues. During 2009 both the industrial or non-construction and the construction market had weakened, resulting in a decrease in the demand for our rental equipment and downward pressure on our rental rates. During the second quarter of 2010 and continuing throughout the remainder of 2010, market conditions improved. This translated into strengthening demand for our rental equipment which continued into 2011, resulting in increased fleet on rent of 18.7% at December 31, 2011 as compared to December 31, 2010. The improvement in fleet on rent was achieved through increased utilization in 2011, which was 68.8%, 63.7% and 57.6% for the three years ending December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Although economic conditions in our underlying end markets remained relatively unchanged in 2011, we experienced increased demand for rental equipment. We believe that the increased demand in excess of the improvements in our end markets was generated by our customers increased willingness to rent rather than purchase equipment. We responded to this increase in demand by investing $616.2 million in rental fleet and improving utilization to 68.8% for the year ended December 31, 2011 or 510 basis points from 63.7% for the year ended December 31, 2010. Rental rates increased 4.9% in the year ended December 31, 2011.

We expect that the demand for rental equipment will continue to outpace our underlying end markets in the first quarter of 2012. We also expect fleet on rent, utilization and rental revenues to continue to compare favorably to the prior year during the first quarter of 2012. Rental rates are directly related to rental demand and we expect positive rate growth during the first quarter of 2012 over those rates achieved in the first quarter of 2011.

Recent Development

On December 15, 2011, RSC Holdings entered into the Merger Agreement with URI. Upon completion of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of RSC Holdings’ common stock (other than shares owned by RSC Holdings, URI or any of their direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, in each case not held on behalf of third parties, and shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn) will be converted into the right to receive (i) $10.80 in cash and (ii) 0.2783 of a share of URI common stock, in each case without interest. The board of directors of each of RSC Holdings and URI has unanimously approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement and has recommended that its stockholders vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger is expected to close by the end of the first half of 2012 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of stockholders and necessary regulatory approvals.

Acquisition

On July 8, 2011, we acquired the assets and operations of Independent Aerial Equipment (“IAE”), a privately held equipment rental company. Substantially all of the assets and operations, which consist primarily of rental fleet and three stores in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland, were acquired in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $49.1 million subject to certain post-close adjustments. We financed the acquisition of IAE by borrowing the funds from the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. In connection with the acquisition, we recorded $13.3 million of goodwill and $5.6 million of intangible assets with finite useful lives. Additionally, we incurred $0.1 million in transaction costs. We did not assume any liabilities. The purchase price allocation is subject to change during the acquisition period.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Our revenues and operating results are driven in large part by activities in the industrial or non-construction market and the construction market. These markets are cyclical with activity levels that tend to increase in line with growth in gross domestic product and decline during times of economic weakness; however, the industrial or the non-construction market is historically less exposed to cyclicality than the construction market. In addition, activity in the construction market tends to be susceptible to seasonal fluctuations in certain parts of the country. This results in changes in demand for our rental equipment. The cyclicality and seasonality of the equipment rental industry result in variable demand and, therefore, our revenues and operating results may fluctuate from period to period.

35

Results of Operations

Revenues:

• Equipment rental revenue consists of fees charged to customers for use of equipment owned by us over the term of the rental as well as other fees charged to customers for items such as delivery and pickup, fuel and damage waivers.

• Sale of merchandise revenues represents sales of contractor supplies, replacement parts, consumables and ancillary products and new equipment.

• Sale of used rental equipment represents revenues derived from the sale of rental equipment that has previously been included in our rental fleet.

Cost of revenues:

• Cost of equipment rentals, excluding depreciation, consists primarily of wages and benefits for employees involved in the delivery and maintenance of rental equipment, rental location facility costs and rental equipment repair and maintenance expenses.

• Depreciation of rental equipment consists of straight-line depreciation of equipment included in our rental fleet.

• Cost of merchandise sales represents the costs of acquiring those items.

• Cost of used rental equipment sales represents the net book value of rental equipment at the date of sale.

Selling, general and administrative costs primarily include sales force compensation, information technology costs, advertising and marketing, professional fees and administrative overhead.

Depreciation and amortization of non-rental equipment and intangibles consists of straight-line depreciation of vehicles and equipment used to support our operations, leasehold improvements and amortization of intangible assets with finite useful lives.

Merger costs consist of transaction expenses relating to our pending Merger with URI and discretionary bonuses paid to certain members of our senior management team related to the execution of the URI Merger Agreement.

Other operating (gains) losses, net are gains and losses resulting from the disposition of non-rental assets. Other operating gains and losses represent the difference between proceeds received upon disposition of non-rental assets (if any) and the net book value of the asset at the time of disposition. Other operating (gains) losses, net also include insurance proceeds from rental and equipment claims in excess of losses incurred as well as proceeds received in connection with legal settlements.

The increase in rental volume is inclusive of a $3.4 million increase due to currency rate changes.

Sale of merchandise revenues increased $5.9 million, or 12.0%, from $49.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $55.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was driven primarily by increases in parts and new equipment sales.

Revenues from the sale of used rental equipment increased $29.6 million, or 23.7%, from $124.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $154.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was due to an approximate 12% increase in volume combined with improved pricing in both auction and retail channels. Used equipment sales at OEC for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $320.8 million and represented a normal part of the rental fleet life cycle.

37

Cost of equipment rentals, excluding depreciation, increased $88.1 million, or 15.6%, from $563.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $651.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, due primarily to the 18.9% increase in rental volume. Cost of equipment rentals excluding depreciation, as a percentage of equipment rental revenues decreased from 53.1% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 49.6% for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to a 4.9% increase in rental rates. Unlike increases in rental volume, increases in equipment rental rates are not accompanied by an increase in cost of equipment rentals.

Depreciation of rental equipment increased $27.8 million, or 10.2%, from $272.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $300.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in depreciation of rental equipment was due largely to an approximate 9% net increase in average OEC. As a percent of equipment rental revenues, depreciation of rental equipment decreased from 25.7% in the year ended December 31, 2010 to 22.9% in the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was due primarily to an increase in fleet utilization in 2011 as compared to 2010, and to a smaller extent, an increase in rental rates.

Cost of merchandise sales increased $1.1 million, or 3.1%, from $35.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $36.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Gross margin for merchandise sales increased from 27.6% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 33.4% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The margin increase is due to normal fluctuations among the various sales categories.

Cost of used rental equipment sales decreased $3.4 million, or 3.2%, from $104.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $101.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Gross margin for the sale of used rental equipment increased from 16.3% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 34.5% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was reflected in higher prices on used equipment sold through both retail and auction channels and was driven by strengthening demand for used rental equipment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $36.4 million, or 24.8%, from $146.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $183.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is due primarily to increases in administrative and sales force wages and benefits, travel and meeting costs and professional fees. Total sales force compensation increased $14.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010 and includes a $7.4 million increase in commissions. The increase in sales commission was due to increases in equipment rental revenues and the sale of used rental equipment, and the remaining increase in sales force costs is due primarily to an overall increase in our sales force headcount and activities. Total administrative wages and benefits increased $8.4 million, including an increase of $6.0 million in incentive compensation. Travel and meeting costs increased approximately $8.8 million and professional fees increased $5.0 million. As a percentage of total revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat for the year ended December 31, 2011 at 12.0 % compared to 11.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Depreciation and amortization of non-rental equipment and intangibles increased $2.2 million, or 5.5%, from $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $42.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is due to additions of non-rental delivery vehicles and trailers to support the increased rental activity and the amortization of the intangible assets recorded in 2011 related to the IAE acquisition.

Merger costs for the year ended December 31, 2011 consists of $7.7 million of transaction expenses related to our pending Merger with URI and $3.3 million of discretionary bonuses paid to certain members of our senior management team related to the execution of the Merger Agreement. There were no comparable amounts in the year ended December 31, 2010.

Other operating gains, net were $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and consisted primarily of gains on the sale of non-rental delivery vehicles and trailers. Other operating gains, net were $5.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2010 and consisted primarily of $3.4 million of insurance proceeds in excess of losses incurred for rental equipment and property claims attributable to flood and hurricane damage and $1.0 million of proceeds received in connection with a legal settlement. The gain associated with the flood and hurricane damage represents proceeds in excess of previously indemnified losses. Recoveries in excess of losses incurred are considered gain contingencies and are not recognized until they are received.

38

Interest expense, net increased $30.0 million, or 15.5%, from $194.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $224.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was due to the settlement of our interest rate swaps and reverse swaps in January 2011, offset by decreases due to lower debt rates on our 2021 Notes and our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility as compared to the average rate on our Second Lien Term Facility, which was repaid in January 2011, the rate on our 2014 Notes, that were partially repaid in February 2011, and the average rate on our Old Senior ABL Facility, which was repaid in February 2011. In connection with our interest rate swap settlements, we paid $35.1 million of which $33.9 million was recognized as interest expense in 2011. The difference of $1.2 million was recognized as interest expense in November 2009 when certain of our interest rate swaps were de-designated as cash flow hedges.

Loss on extinguishment of debt, net was $15.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and consists of (i) the write-off of $5.1 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with our Second Lien Term Facility, which we repaid in January 2011, (ii) the write-off of $2.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and $5.6 million of call premiums associated with partial repayment of our 2014 Notes in February 2011, and (iii) the write-off of $2.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which was replaced with the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility in February 2011.

The benefit for income taxes was $10.5 million and $43.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate for the years ending December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 26.0% and 37.3%, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate in 2011 versus 2010, is due to a lower pretax loss from 2010 to 2011 and an increase in permanent items. Our effective tax rate normally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to certain non-deductible permanent items, state income taxes and certain state minimum and gross receipts taxes, which are incurred regardless of whether we earn income.

Total revenues decreased $49.0 million, or 3.8%, from $1,283.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $1,234.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Equipment rental revenue decreased $12.8 million, or 1.2%, from $1,073.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $1,060.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in equipment rental revenue is primarily the result of a $67.4 million, or 6.3%, decrease in rental rates offset by a $54.6 million, or 4.5%, increase in rental volume. The increase in rental volume includes a $6.3 million increase due to currency rate changes.

Sale of merchandise revenues decreased $2.6 million, or 5.1%, from $52.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $49.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was due to a decline in sales of replacement parts, which was driven primarily by a change in mix.

Revenues from the sale of used rental equipment decreased $33.6 million, or 21.2%, from $158.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $124.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was due to an approximate 28% decrease in volume offset by improved pricing in both auction and retail channels. During 2010, we intentionally slowed our sales of certain categories of used rental equipment to preserve fleet in response to rising demand. Increased demand for our rental equipment in 2010 was evidenced by our fleet utilization, which increased 610 basis points to 63.7% for the year ended December 31, 2010 from 57.6% for the year ended December 31, 2009. We also purchased $327.1 million of new rental fleet. Our sales of used rental equipment in the year ended December 31, 2010 represent a normal part of the rental fleet life cycle.

Cost of equipment rentals, excluding depreciation, increased $22.6 million, or 4.2%, from $540.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $563.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, and is consistent with the increase in rental volume. Although the year over year increase in cost of equipment rentals, excluding depreciation was consistent with the increase in rental volume, location closure and severance costs were $11.3 million higher during the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The impact of this decrease was offset by higher fuel prices which contributed to increases in freight and fuel expense of $7.1 million and $5.7 million, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009. Cost of equipment rentals excluding depreciation, as a percentage of equipment rental revenues increased from 50.4% for the year ended December 31, 2009 to 53.1% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase is due primarily to a 6.3% decrease in equipment rental rates.

Depreciation of rental equipment decreased $13.1 million, or 4.6%, from $285.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $272.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is due to a decline in the average OEC for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in the average OEC resulted from our actions throughout 2009 to reduce rental fleet in response to weakened demand. As a percent of equipment rental revenues, depreciation of rental equipment decreased 90 basis points, from 26.6% in the year ended December 31, 2009 to 25.7% in the year ended December 31, 2010. This decrease is due primarily to an increase in fleet utilization during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Cost of merchandise sales decreased $1.0 million, or 2.8%, from $36.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $35.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, due in part to the decrease in merchandise sales revenue. Gross margin for merchandise sales decreased from 29.3% for the year ended December 31, 2009 to 27.6% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was attributable to a decline in margins on replacement parts, which was driven primarily by a change in mix. Margins on general merchandise sales remained unchanged.

Cost of used rental equipment sales decreased $44.2 million, or 29.7%, from $148.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $104.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is due primarily to a 21.2% decrease in sales of used rental equipment for the year ended December 31, 2010. Gross margin for the sale of used rental equipment increased from 6.2% for the year ended December 31, 2009 to 16.3% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in gross margin was due to an improvement in margins on used equipment sold through both retail and auction channels.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 0.9%, from $148.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $146.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is due to a $5.3 million decrease in the provision for doubtful accounts as well as a combined decrease of $1.9 million in direct marketing costs, professional fees and equipment leasing costs. These decreases were offset by a $6.0 million increase in administrative wages and benefits including a $1.6 million increase in severance costs, a $1.3 million increase in variable compensation and a $1.0 million increase in employee training costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of total revenues from 11.5% for the year ended December 31, 2009 to 11.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Depreciation and amortization of non-rental equipment and intangibles decreased $3.8 million, or 8.6%, from $44.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is primarily due to a smaller average fleet of capitalized lease vehicles during the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease was also driven by a decrease in the net book value of leasehold improvements, which resulted from leasehold improvements that had reached the end of their useful lives and from the write-off of unamortized leasehold improvements for location closures occurring during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Other operating gains, net were $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and consisted primarily of $3.4 million of insurance proceeds in excess of losses incurred for rental equipment and property claims attributable to flood and hurricane damage and $1.0 million of proceeds received in connection with a legal settlement. Recoveries in excess of losses incurred are considered gain contingencies and are not recognized until they are received.

41

Interest expense, net increased $4.8 million, or 2.5%, from $189.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $194.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, due to higher interest rates under our 2017 Notes and 2019 Notes, which were issued in the second half of 2009, as compared to interest rates on our Second Lien Term Facility, which was partially repaid in 2009. The impact of the higher rates was partially offset by lower debt levels as well as the de-designation of certain interest rate swaps in the fourth quarter of 2009, which resulted in the accelerated recognition of our interest expense that would have been incurred during 2010 had the de-designation not occurred. In addition, amortization of deferred financing costs increased as a result of the 2017 and 2019 Notes issuances.

Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, net was $13.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and consists of the following (in 000s):

	Second Lien Term Facility			Old Senior ABL Facility			Total
Net gain from repurchase of debt for less than par value	$	26,919		$	—		$	26,919
Fees incurred to repurchase debt		(807	)		—			(807	)
Fees incurred to amend credit facilities		(2,057	)		(1,448	)		(3,505	)
		24,055			(1,448	)		22,607
Write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs		(6,414	)		(2,277	)		(8,691	)
Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, net	$	17,641		$	(3,725	)	$	13,916

The benefit for income taxes was $43.7 million and $37.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The benefit for income taxes was due to pre-tax net losses of $117.2 million and $96.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was 37.3% and 38.6%, respectively. Our effective tax rate normally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to certain non-deductible permanent items, state income taxes and certain state minimum and gross receipts taxes, which are incurred regardless of whether we earn income. The effective tax rate for 2009 also includes a $2.7 million discrete income tax benefit relating to the true-up of our deferred tax liabilities from filing our 2008 federal, state and foreign tax returns and an offsetting expense recognized during the second quarter of 2009 relating to the expiration of share appreciation rights granted by Atlas to certain employees of RSC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Our primary source of capital is from cash generated by our rental operations including cash received from the sale of used rental equipment, and secondarily from borrowings available under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. Our business is highly capital intensive, requiring significant investments in order to expand our rental fleet during periods of growth and smaller investments required to maintain and replace our rental fleet during times of weakening rental demand.

Cash flows from operating activities as well as the sale of used rental equipment enable us to fund our operations and service our debt obligations including the continued repayment of our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. We continuously monitor utilization of our rental fleet and if warranted we divest excess fleet, which generates additional cash flow. In addition, due to the condition and relative age of our fleet; we have the ability to significantly reduce capital expenditures during difficult economic times, therefore allowing us to redirect this cash towards further debt reduction during these periods. The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 (in 000s):

	Years Ended December 31,
	2011			2010			2009
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	323,800		$	324,860		$	269,956
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities		(515,555	)		(200,709	)		124,904
Net cash provided by (used) in financing activities		193,874			(126,081	)		(405,194	)
Effect of foreign exchange rates on cash		(796	)		905			1,199
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	1,323		$	(1,025	)	$	(9,135	)

As of December 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $4.8 million, an increase of $1.3 million from December 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.5 million, a decrease of $1.0 million from December 31, 2009. Generally, we manage our cash flow by using any excess cash, after considering our working capital and capital expenditure needs, to pay down the outstanding balance of our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility.

Operating activities – Net cash provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 consisted of the add-back of non-cash items and other adjustments of $301.8 million and changes in operating assets (net of operating liabilities) of $51.9 million offset by a net loss of $29.9 million. The most significant change in operating assets and liabilities was an increase in accounts payable, which was primarily attributable to capital purchases, resulting in a cash inflow of $50.7 million and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities which was primarily due to increased compensation, interest amounts and $7.7 million of Merger costs, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable, resulting in a net cash outflow of $37.0 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 consisted of the add-back of non-cash items and other adjustments of $305.0 million and a decrease in operating assets (net of operating liabilities) of $93.4 million offset by a net loss of $73.5 million. The most significant change in operating assets and liabilities was an increase in accounts payable, which was primarily attributable to capital purchases, resulting in a cash inflow of $145.5 million offset by an increase in accounts receivable resulting in a net cash outflow of $45.1 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 consisted of the add-back of non-cash items and other adjustments of $294.6 million and a decrease in operating assets (net of operating liabilities) of $34.7 million offset by a net loss of $59.3 million. The most significant change in operating assets and liabilities was a reduction in accounts receivable resulting in a cash inflow of $99.8 million offset by the settlement of accounts payable resulting in a net cash outflow of $63.1 million.

43

Investing activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 consisted primarily of $628.0 million of capital purchases offset by $161.5 million of proceeds received from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment. Capital expenditures include purchases of rental and non-rental equipment. Additionally, we acquired the net assets of IAE for $49.1 million during the current year period.

Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 consisted of $332.9 million of capital purchases offset by $127.8 million of proceeds received from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment and $4.4 million of insurance proceeds associated with rental equipment and property claims. Capital expenditures, which include purchases of rental and non-rental equipment, increased $281.5 million in 2010 as compared to 2009, due to rising rental demand during 2010 and the anticipation of rising rental demand in 2011.

Net cash provided by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 consisted primarily of proceeds received from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment of $171.0 million. We also received $5.3 million of insurance proceeds associated with rental equipment and property claims. Capital expenditures of $51.3 million include purchases of rental and non-rental equipment. During 2009, we intentionally reduced our capital expenditures and continued our efforts to accelerate the sales of used rental equipment in response to a drop in rental demand, which began in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Financing activities –

$650.0 million Senior Unsecured Notes Offering

On January 19, 2011, we completed a private offering of $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.25% senior unsecured notes due February 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). The proceeds from the sale of the 2021 Notes were used to repay the outstanding balance on our Second Lien Term Facility, which totaled $479.4 million plus accrued interest of $0.7 million, redeem a portion of the 2014 Notes in February 2011 as described below, settle our outstanding interest rate swap obligations of $35.1 million and pay a portion of the transaction costs incurred with the issuance of the 2021 Notes. The transaction costs, which totaled $14.6 million, were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2021 Notes using the effective interest rate method. On February 21, 2011, we redeemed $117.0 million of aggregate principal of our 2014 Notes, paid accrued interest of $2.5 million on the 2014 Notes and incurred a call premium of $5.6 million, which was funded with the remaining proceeds from the 2021 Notes and in part from a draw on our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. As a result of the Second Lien Term Facility repayment and the partial repayment of the 2014 Notes, we expensed $7.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, which together with the $5.6 million in call premiums, is characterized as a loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011. The settlement of our interest rate swaps resulted in a charge of $33.9 million, which is characterized as interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we initiated and completed an exchange offer, in which the holders of the 2021 Notes could exchange such unregistered notes for new, registered notes. The terms of the new, registered notes offered in the exchange offer are identical in all material respects to the terms of the unregistered notes, except that the new notes were issued in a transaction registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and generally are not subject to restrictions on transfer.

New Senior ABL Revolving Facility

On February 9, 2011, we entered into the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which replaced our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, and we borrowed $383.0 million of loans under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. The proceeds of these loans were used to repay the outstanding balance on our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which totaled $370.2 million plus accrued interest and other fees totaling $1.1 million, and to pay a portion of transaction costs including legal fees. Total transaction costs of $12.3 million were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. In addition, we wrote off $2.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011.

44

Additionally, on September 28, 2011, we amended the New Senior ABL Revolving agreement to increase the commitment for aggregate borrowings by approximately $110.0 million. Of this amount $85.0 million represents additional U.S. commitments and $25.0 million represents Canadian commitments. No other material modifications were made. Our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which matures on February 2016, now provides commitments for aggregate borrowings of approximately $1,210.0 million subject to, among other things, our maintenance of a sufficient borrowing base under such facility. In connection with our expansion of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, we incurred transaction costs of $0.7 million that will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility as amended. The borrowing base reporting requirements that we are subject to under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility are substantially similar to those under our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility. Financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 include net cash proceeds of $488.0 million on our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and net cash payments of $304.2 million on our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility.

Net cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 includes $29.7 million of repayments on our capital leases. Pursuant to an intercompany revolving agreement between RSC Equipment Rental of Canada Ltd. and RSC Equipment Rental, Inc., we will periodically transfer excess cash generated from our Canadian operations to the U.S. operations in order to pay down the outstanding balance on our Senior ABL Revolving Facility. There were intercompany loan balances in U.S. dollars of approximately $17.0 million at December 31, 2011. Interest payable under the Senior ABL Revolving Facility normally exceeds that earned under an interest bearing cash account.

Net cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 consists primarily of $97.0 million net payments on our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility and $30.2 million of repayments on our capital leases. Pursuant to an intercompany revolving agreement between RSC Equipment Rental of Canada Ltd and RSC Equipment Rental, Inc., we will periodically transfer excess cash generated from our Canadian operations to the U.S. in order to pay down the outstanding balance on our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility. The outstanding balance of the intercompany loan in U.S. dollars was approximately $27.0 million at December 31, 2010. Interest payable under the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility normally exceeds that earned under an interest bearing cash account.

Net cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 consists primarily of $280.0 million net payments on our Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, $244.4 million of payments to extinguish our Old Senior ABL Term Loan and $393.0 million of prepayments on our Second Lien Term Facility. We also repaid $40.4 million on our capital lease obligations and paid $32.8 million of deferred and non-deferred financing costs the majority of which relate to the offerings of our 2017 and 2019 Notes, the related amendments and the Second Lien Term Facility repurchases. These cash outflows were offset by $389.3 million of proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the 2017 Notes and $196.9 million of proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the 2019 Notes.

Indebtedness

We are highly leveraged and a substantial portion of our liquidity needs arise from debt service requirements and from funding our costs of operations and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2011, we had $2.3 billion of indebtedness outstanding, consisting of $488.0 million under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, $503.0 million of 2014 Notes, $400.0 million of 2017 Notes, $200.0 million of 2019 Notes, $650.0 million of 2021 Notes and $92.2 million under capital lease obligations. The 2017 Notes and the 2019 Notes are presented net of unamortized original issue discounts of $8.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2011.

45

Availability under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility is based on a borrowing base equal to a percentage of the net rental equipment, the value of our receivables and inventory subject to a maximum availability of $1,210 million. As of December 31, 2011, the borrowing base was $1,510.5 million and we had an outstanding balance of $488.0 million on our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, $93.9 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving $628.1 million available for future borrowings.

Substantially all of our rental equipment and all our other assets are subject to liens under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and our 2017 Notes, and none of such assets are available to satisfy the general claims of our creditors.

The New Senior ABL Revolving Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict RSC’s ability to incur additional indebtedness; provide guarantees; engage in mergers, acquisitions or dispositions; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; make dividends and other restricted payments; prepay other indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; make investments; change the nature of its business; incur liens; with respect to RSC Holdings II, LLC, take actions other than those enumerated; and amend specified debt agreements. The respective indentures governing the Notes also contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit RSC’s ability to incur additional debt; pay dividends or distributions on RSC Holdings capital stock or repurchase RSC Holdings capital stock; make certain investments; create liens to secure debt; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; create limitations on the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or distributions to their parents; merge or consolidate with another company; and transfer and sell assets. In addition, under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, upon excess availability falling below $100.0 million, we will become subject to more frequent borrowing base reporting requirements and upon the excess availability falling below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, the borrowers will be required to comply with specified financial ratios, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 and a maximum leverage ratio as of the last day of each quarter of 5.25 to 1.00, decreasing to 5.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2011.

As of December 31, 2011, excess availability on our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility was $628.1 million and we were therefore not required to comply with either the fixed charge coverage ratio or leverage ratio. Had excess availability fallen below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility as of December 31, 2011, compliance with these financial ratios would have been required and we would have violated the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio requirement, which would be an event of default. We do not expect excess availability to fall below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility at any time during the next twelve months and therefore do not expect that we will be required to comply with the specified financial ratios during that time. If an event of default occurred, we would seek a waiver of the covenants and could incur upfront fees and increased interest costs. However, there can be no assurances that such a waiver could be obtained.

Outlook

We believe that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt service obligations, ongoing costs of operations, working capital needs and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future. Our future financial and operating performance, ability to service or refinance our debt and ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in our debt agreements will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. See “Cautionary Note for Forward-Looking Statements” on page ii and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

From time to time, we evaluate various alternatives for the use of excess cash generated from our operations including paying down debt, funding acquisitions and repurchasing common stock or debt securities. Our capacity to repurchase common stock, make cash dividends or make optional payments on unsecured debt securities is limited to $100.0 million by the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility at December 31, 2011 unless certain payment conditions are satisfied.

(3) As of December 31, 2011, we had outstanding purchase orders with our equipment suppliers. These purchase orders, which were negotiated in the ordinary course of business, total approximately $28.6 million. Generally, these purchase orders can be cancelled by us with 30 days’ notice and without cancellation penalties.

Capital Expenditures

The table below shows rental equipment and property and non-rental equipment capital expenditures and related disposal proceeds received by year for 2011, 2010 and 2009. Net capital expenditures (inflows) for 2010 and 2009 exclude insurance proceeds from rental equipment and property claims of $4.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

	Rental Equipment							Property and Non-Rental Equipment

Adjusted EBITDA

As a supplement to the financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, we also present Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is generally consolidated net (loss) income before net interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization and before certain other items, including loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, net, merger costs, share-based compensation and other (income) expense, net. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe the calculation is useful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and as a liquidity measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP and there are material limitations to its usefulness on a stand alone basis. Adjusted EBITDA does not include reductions for cash payments for our obligations to service our debt, fund our working capital and pay our income taxes. In addition, certain items excluded from Adjusted EBTIDA such as interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance. All companies do not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner and our presentation may not be comparable to those presented by other companies. Investors should use Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net (loss) income or net cash provided by operating activities as defined under GAAP.

The table below provides a reconciliation between net loss, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and Adjusted EBITDA:

Free Cash Flow

We also present free cash flow as a supplement to the financial statements. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities plus net capital inflows (expenditures). All companies do not calculate free cash flow in the same manner, and our presentation may not be comparable to those presented by other companies. We believe free cash flow provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital needs. However, free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net (loss) income or net cash provided by operating activities as defined under GAAP. Moreover, free cash flow does not represent remaining cash flows available for discretionary expenditures because the measure does not deduct payment required for debt maturities.

48

The table below reconciles free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP (in 000s):

	Years Ended December 31,
	2011			2010			2009

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results, however, may materially differ from our calculated estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements and changes in these judgments and estimates may impact future results of operations and financial condition. For additional discussion of our accounting policies see Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Rental Equipment

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, we had rental equipment with a net book value of $1.6 billion and $1.3 billion, representing 50.0% and 49.2% of our total assets, respectively. We exercise judgment with regard to rental equipment in the following areas: (1) determining whether an expenditure is eligible for capitalization or if it should be expensed as incurred, (2) estimating the useful life and salvage value and determining the depreciation method of a capitalized asset, and (3) if events or changes in circumstances warrant an assessment, determining if and to what extent an asset has been impaired. The accuracy of our judgments impacts the amount of depreciation expense we recognize, the amount of gain or loss on the ultimate disposal of these assets including those resulting from the sale of used rental equipment, whether a long-lived asset is impaired and, if an asset is impaired, the amount of the loss related to the impaired asset that is recognized.

Costs associated with the acquisition of rental equipment including those necessary to prepare an asset for its intended use are capitalized. Expenditures associated with the repair or maintenance of a capital asset are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that are expected to provide future benefits to us or that extend the useful life of rental equipment are capitalized. We have factory-authorized arrangements for the refurbishment of certain types of rental equipment. Since refurbishments extend the assets’ useful lives, the cost of refurbishments are added to the assets’ net book value. The combined cost is then depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the refurbished asset, which averages 48 months.

49

The useful lives that we assign to rental equipment represent the estimated number of years that the property and equipment is expected to contribute to the revenue generating process based on our current operating strategy. The range of estimated lives for rental equipment is one to ten years. We believe that the cost of our rental equipment is consumed ratably over time and we therefore depreciate these assets on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. The salvage value that we assign to rental equipment represents the estimated residual value of assets at the end of their estimated useful life. Except for certain small dollar rental items, the salvage value that we assign to new rental equipment is 10% of cost while the salvage value of refurbished rental equipment is 10% of the asset’s net book value at the time of refurbishment including the cost to refurbish. During 2011, we purchased $616.2 million of new rental equipment. Had we assigned a salvage value of zero to these assets we would have recognized $7.2 million of additional depreciation expense during 2011. Conversely, had we assigned a salvage value of 20% instead of 10% we would have recognized $3.0 million less depreciation expense during 2011.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Our long-lived assets to be held and used consist primarily of our rental fleet, which we segregate into approximately ten major category classes based on functionality. We evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset (or an asset group) may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that could suggest possible impairment include but are not limited to: a significant decrease in the market price of our rental fleet, a significant adverse change in the business climate that could affect the value of our rental fleet or a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of our rental fleet. On a monthly basis, we analyze the fair value of our rental fleet in conjunction with our projections regarding future cash flows that we expect to generate from the continued use of our rental fleet. The fair value of our rental fleet in relation to the assets’ carrying amount is the primary factor we consider in determining whether our rental fleet should be tested for recoverability.

Should an impairment indicator be present, recoverability is assessed by comparing the estimated future cash flows of the category classes, on an undiscounted basis, to carrying values. The category class represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, the asset group is recoverable and no impairment is present. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, the impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset group.

During 2011 and 2010, the used equipment market continued to improve relative to 2009; enabling us to sell $154.5 million and $124.8 million, respectively, of used rental equipment at gross margins of 34.5% and 16.3%. As of December 31, 2011, the fair value of our rental fleet remained in excess of the assets’ carrying amounts when reviewed at a category class level.

After considering the fair values of our rental fleet (at a category class level) relative to the assets’ carrying amounts in addition to the consistent positive margins we generate from the sale of used rental equipment, we concluded impairment indicators were not present and it was therefore not necessary to test the assets for recoverability during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.

Business Combinations

Under GAAP, a business acquisition is recorded by allocating the cost of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires us to make certain fair value estimates, primarily related to receivables, inventory, rental equipment and intangible assets. These estimates require significant judgment and include a variety of assumptions in determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed including current replacement cost for similar assets, estimated future cash flows and growth rates.

50

Goodwill

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, we had goodwill of $949.7 million and $936.3 million, respectively. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, goodwill is required to be tested for impairment annually and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that might indicate impairment. We perform our annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth quarter of our calendar year.

The goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process. The first step of the test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test must be performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as goodwill recognized in a business combination. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Historically, we have passed the first step of the goodwill impairment testing, thus the second step of the impairment test has been unnecessary.

We are comprised of two divisions, the Gulf and Northern divisions, which are aggregated into one reportable segment because they are operationally and economically similar and because aggregation is consistent with the basic principles of segment reporting. We concluded our divisions are reporting units for purposes of testing goodwill because the component levels below our divisions do not constitute a business. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we tested goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to their respective carrying values, including goodwill. The fair values, which were estimated using an income approach valuation technique, represent the amount at which our reporting units could be sold in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This approach was unchanged from prior years’ methodology. Under the income approach, the fair values were estimated based on the discounted future cash flows resulting from the continued use and disposition of each reporting unit. Based on our 2011 fourth quarter goodwill impairment test, the fair values of our reporting units were determined to substantially exceed their respective carrying amounts. In addition, we concluded the sum of these fair values was reasonably consistent with the Company’s enterprise value adjusted for a market premium. The Company’s enterprise value consists of the fair value of the Company’s debt plus the Company’s equity capitalization.

The determination of fair value under the income approach requires significant judgment on our part. Our judgment is required in developing assumptions about revenue growth, changes in working capital, selling, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures and the selection of an appropriate discount rate. The estimated future cash flows and projected capital expenditures used under the income approach are based on our business plans and forecasts, which consider historical results adjusted for future expectations.

Based on our analyses, there was no goodwill impairment recognized during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. If during 2012 market conditions deteriorate and our outlook deteriorates from the projections we used in the 2011 goodwill impairment test, we could have goodwill impairment during 2012. Goodwill impairment would not impact our debt covenants.

Reserve for Claims

Our insurance program for general liability, automobile, workers’ compensation and pollution claims involves deductibles or self-insurance, with varying risk retention levels. Claims in excess of these risk retention levels are covered by insurance, up to certain policy limits. We are fully self-insured for medical claims. Our excess loss coverage for general liability, automobile, workers’ compensation and pollution claims starts at $1.0 million, $1.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.25 million, respectively. We establish reserves for reported claims that are asserted and for claims that are believed to have been incurred but not yet reported. These reserves reflect an estimate of the amounts that we will be required to pay in connection with these claims. The estimate of reserves is based upon assumptions relating to the probability of losses and historical settlement experience. These estimates may change

51

based on, among other events, changes in claims history or receipt of additional information relevant to assessing the claims. Furthermore, these estimates may prove to be inaccurate due to factors such as adverse judicial determinations or settlements at higher than estimated amounts. Accordingly, we may be required to increase or decrease the reserves.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Our derivative financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of our derivatives, which are designated as cash flow hedges, are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) to the extent that the hedges are highly effective. Ineffective portions of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in current period earnings in interest expense. Gains and losses on derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in current period earnings, in interest expense. Hedge effectiveness is calculated by comparing the fair value of the derivative to a hypothetical derivative that would be a perfect hedge of the hedged transaction. Other comprehensive income or loss is reclassified into current period earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on derivative instruments that are de-designated as cash flow hedges and cannot be re-designated under a different hedging relationship are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current period earnings in interest expense at the time of the de-designation. As of December 31, 2011 there were no derivative instruments outstanding.

Revenue Recognition

We rent equipment primarily to the industrial or non-construction market and the construction market. We record unbilled revenue for revenues earned in each reporting period, which have not yet been billed to the customer. Rental contract terms may be daily, weekly, or monthly and may extend across financial reporting periods. Rental revenue is recognized over the applicable rental period.

We recognize revenue on used rental equipment and merchandise sales when title passes to the customer, the customer takes ownership, assumes risk of loss, and collectability is reasonably assured. There are no rights of return or warranties offered on product sales.

We recognize both net and gross re-rent revenue. We have entered into alliance agreements with certain suppliers whereby we rent equipment from the supplier and subsequently re-rent such equipment to a customer. Under the alliance agreements, the collection risk from the end user is passed to the original supplier and revenue is presented on a net basis. When no alliance agreement exists, re-rent revenue is presented on a gross basis.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation for all share-based payment awards granted is based on the grant-date fair value. Generally, share-based payment awards to our employees vest in equal increments over a four-year service period from the date of grant. The grant date fair value of the award, adjusted for expected forfeitures, is amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards. As of December 31, 2011 there was $16.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation (net of forfeitures) related to unvested awards which are expected to vest over a weighted average period of approximately of 2.3 years related to our share-based compensation plans.

Income Taxes

We are subject to federal income taxes, foreign income taxes and state income taxes in those jurisdictions in which we operate. We exercise judgment with regard to income taxes in the following areas: (1) interpreting whether expenses are deductible in accordance with federal and state tax codes, (2) estimating annual effective federal and state income tax rates and (3) assessing whether deferred tax assets are, more likely than not, expected to be realized. The accuracy of these judgments impacts the amount of income tax expense we recognize each period.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Provisions for deferred income taxes are recorded to the extent of withholding taxes and incremental taxes, if any, that arise from repatriation of dividends from those foreign subsidiaries where local earnings are not permanently reinvested. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets when realization of such assets is not considered to be more likely than not. Adjustments to the valuation allowance are made periodically based on management’s assessment of the recoverability of the related assets. We measure and record tax contingency accruals for differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements. Benefits from a tax position are recognized in the financial statements if and when we determine that it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination. This assessment presumes the taxing authority has full knowledge of all relevant information. The amount of benefit recognized in the financial statements is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement.

As a matter of law, we are subject to examination by federal, foreign and state taxing authorities. Although we believe that the amounts reflected in our tax returns substantially comply with the applicable federal, foreign and state tax regulations, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) and the various state taxing authorities can take positions contrary to our position based on their interpretation of the law. A tax position that is challenged by a taxing authority could result in an adjustment to our income tax liabilities and related tax provision.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued an accounting standards update relating to testing goodwill for impairment. The update simplifies how a company tests goodwill for impairment by allowing both public and nonpublic entities an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Under that option, an entity would no longer be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on that qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. We do not anticipate that adoption of these amendments will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the existing guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, entities have the option to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Entities no longer have the option of presenting the components of other comprehensive income within the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. For public entities, the amendment is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is the first quarter in 2012. The adoption of this amendment will result in a change to our current presentation of comprehensive income.

In November 2011, the FASB issued an update deferring the effective date for amendments to the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this update will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued amendments to the existing guidance on fair value measurement. The amendments are intended to create consistency between U.S. generally accepted accounting standards and International Financial Reporting Standards on measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements including (i) the application of the highest and best use valuation premise concepts, (ii) measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity, and (iii) quantitative information required for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3. In addition, the amendments require additional disclosure for Level 3 measurements regarding the sensitivity of fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and any interrelationships between those inputs. For public entities, the amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is calendar year 2012. These changes are required to be applied prospectively. We do not anticipate that the adoption of these amendments will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2011 we had a significant amount of debt under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, with variable rates of interest based generally on adjusted London inter-bank offered rate (“LIBOR”), or an alternate interest rate, plus an applicable margin (or, in the case of Canadian dollar borrowings under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, variable borrowing costs based generally on bankers’ acceptance discount rates, plus a stamping fee equal to an applicable margin, or on the Canadian prime rate, plus an applicable margin). Increases in interest rates could therefore significantly increase the associated interest payments that we are required to make on this debt. We have assessed our exposure to changes in interest rates by analyzing the sensitivity to our earnings assuming various changes in market interest rates. Assuming a hypothetical increase of 1% in interest rates on our debt portfolio our net interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 would have increased by an estimated $4.8 million.

As of December 31, 2011, 75% of our $2,322.3 million of debt had fixed-rate interest and 25% had floating-rate interest. To hedge exposure to market conditions, reduce the volatility of financing costs and achieve a desired balance between fixed-rate and floating-rate debt, we have utilized interest rate swaps under which it has exchanged floating-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest payments. As of December 31, 2011, we do not have any interest swaps in effect.

Currency Exchange Risk

The functional currency for our Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. In the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, 6.9%, 6.4% and 5.2%, respectively, of our revenues were generated by our Canadian operations. As a result, our future earnings could be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollars. Based upon the level of our Canadian operations during the year ended December 31, 2011, relative to our operations as a whole, a 10% increase in the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the U.S. dollar would have reduced net loss by approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Inflation

The increased acquisition cost of rental equipment is the primary inflationary factor affecting us. Many of our other operating expenses are also expected to increase with inflation. Management does not expect that the effect of inflation on our overall operating costs will be greater for us than for our competitors.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Consolidated Financial Statements

Our consolidated financial statements required by this item are in Appendix F to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was performed under the supervision of, and with the participation of, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.

Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This report has been included on page F-3 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

55

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

An evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting was performed under the supervision of, and with the participation of, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to determine whether any changes have occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting have occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(2) The weighted-average exercise price does not include outstanding restricted stock units.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Directors, and Officers

The following table sets forth information as of January 13, 2012, with respect to the ownership of the common stock of RSC Holdings by:

• each person known by the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of its common stock;

• each of the Directors;

• each of our named executive officers and

• all of the Company’s executive officers and Directors as a group.

The amounts and percentages of shares beneficially owned are reported on the basis of SEC regulations governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under SEC rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares voting power or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities for which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Securities that can be so acquired are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing such person’s ownership percentage of outstanding shares, but not for purposes of computing any other person’s ownership percentage. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. Subject to the foregoing, the percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 104,304,444 shares of RSC Holdings’ common stock outstanding as of January 13, 2012.

Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, each of the beneficial owners listed has, to the Company’s knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the indicated shares of common stock.

Please see Part I, Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption “Organizational Overview” for more information on the Merger.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Transactions with Related Persons

Stockholders Agreement

In connection with the recapitalization in November 2006, RSC Holdings entered into the Stockholders Agreement with ACF, Oak Hill, and Ripplewood. In January 2011, Ripplewood’s ownership dropped below 4 million shares of common stock of RSC Holdings, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement, Ripplewood was no longer a party thereto. On October 6, 2011, we entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement with affiliates of Oak Hill that, among other things, gives Oak Hill the right to designate three nominees for election to the Board of Directors and approve the four additional non-employee directors. ACF was released and waived its rights under the Stockholders Agreement in connection with this Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, and as such is no longer a party to such agreement.

The Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement also grants to Oak Hill, so long as it holds at least 5% of the total shares of common stock outstanding at such time, the right, subject to certain limitations, to cause RSC Holdings, at its own expense, to use its best efforts to register such securities held by Oak Hill for public resale. The exercise of this right is not limited to a certain number of requests. In the event RSC Holdings registers any of its common stock, Oak Hill, or any other stockholder that becomes a party to the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, has the right to require RSC Holdings to use its best efforts to include shares of common stock of RSC Holdings held by it, subject to certain limitations, including as determined by the underwriters. The Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement also provides for RSC Holdings to indemnify the stockholders party to that agreement and their affiliates in connection with the registration of RSC Holdings’ securities.

Transaction and Indemnification Agreements

In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into the Cost Reimbursement Agreement with Oak Hill and Ripplewood, pursuant to which we reimbursed them for expenses incurred in connection with certain advisory and other services. The Cost Reimbursement Agreement does not limit expense amounts subject to reimbursement. In 2011, RSC Holdings did not reimburse Oak Hill or Ripplewood for any expenses.

In connection with the recapitalization, RSC Holdings and RSC also entered into an Indemnification Agreement with Oak Hill, Ripplewood, and ACF, pursuant to which RSC Holdings and RSC will indemnify Oak Hill, Ripplewood, and ACF, and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, partners, members, employees, agents, advisors, representatives, and controlling persons, against certain liabilities arising out of the recapitalization or the performance of the Monitoring Agreement and certain other claims and liabilities. In connection with RSC

59

Holdings’ initial public offering, RSC Holdings entered into indemnification agreements with each of our Directors and its executive officers. The Indemnification Agreement provides the Directors and executive officers with contractual rights for indemnification and expense advancement rights provided under our By-Laws.

Agreements and Relationships with ACAB

Sales and rentals to ACAB of $104,000, $206,000 and $419,000 in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are included in revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Amounts paid to ACAB for rental equipment and other purchases and for equipment rental were $55.3 million, $46.4 million and $14.5 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Amounts payable to ACAB were $18.2 million and $22.0 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As part of the Recapitalization, ACAB assumed certain liabilities of the Company existing on the closing date, including tax liabilities for personal property and real estate. Additionally, ACAB agreed to indemnify the Company of any and all liabilities for income taxes which are imposed on the Company for a taxable period prior to the closing date of the Recapitalization. As the legal obligation for any such payments still resides with the Company, on the date of the Recapitalization, the Company recorded a receivable for any recorded liabilities to be paid by ACAB. At both December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had receivables of $0.6 million for such amounts, which are recorded within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Related Party Transaction Approval Policy

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for the review, approval, or ratification of “related-person transactions” between us and our related persons. Under SEC rules, a related person is a director, officer, nominee for director, or 5% stockholder of RSC Holdings since the beginning of the last fiscal year and their immediate family members. Transactions involving related persons are reviewed by RSC Holdings’ Audit and Risk Committee. The internal disclosure committee determines whether a related person could have a significant interest in such a transaction and any such transaction is forwarded to the Audit and Risk Committee for review. The Audit and Risk Committee determines whether the related person has a material interest in a transaction and may approve, ratify, rescind, or take other action with respect to the transaction in its discretion.

Pursuant to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics adopted by our Board of Directors, any member of our Board of Directors who believes he or she has an actual or potential conflict of interest with us is obligated to notify the Office of the General Counsel and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as promptly as practicable. That Director should not participate in any decision by our Board of Directors, or any committee of our Board of Directors, that in any way relates to the matter that gives rise to the conflict or potential conflict of interest until the issue has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the Board of Directors. The following is a description of certain relationships and transactions that we have entered into with our related persons.

Director Independence

On November 29, 2006, Atlas Copco AB (“ACAB”), Atlas Copco Finance S.à.r.l. (“ACF”), investment funds associated with Ripplewood Holdings L.L.C. (“Ripplewood”) and Oak Hill Capital Management, LLC (“Oak Hill” and together with Ripplewood, the “Sponsors”) and RSC Holdings, entered into a Recapitalization Agreement pursuant to which the Sponsors acquired approximately 85% of RSC Holdings’ common stock. The parties to the Recapitalization Agreement were also parties to a Stockholders Agreement, which, as amended, gave Oak Hill the right to designate four nominees for election to the Board of Directors. Each stockholder that was a party to the Stockholders Agreement was required to take all necessary action to cause the nominees of Oak Hill to be elected, which actions included recommending the nominees to our Board of Directors for inclusion in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board of Directors to our stockholders for election. Please see the information set forth under the caption “Stockholders Agreement” above for more information on the Stockholders Agreement.

Prior to October 1, 2010, Oak Hill, Ripplewood and ACF collectively owned over 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, we were a “controlled company” for the purposes of the NYSE listing requirements, and therefore, we were eligible for, and elected to take advantage of, exemptions from certain NYSE

60

listing requirements that would otherwise require our Board of Directors to have a majority of independent directors and our compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees to be comprised entirely of independent directors. In 2010, Ripplewood and ACF completed a number of open markets sales of our common stock, and as a result of such sales, we no longer qualified as a “controlled company” as of October 1, 2010, as Oak Hill, Ripplewood and ACF held less than 50% of our outstanding shares. In January 2011, Ripplewood’s ownership dropped below 4 million shares of common stock of RSC Holdings, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement, Ripplewood was no longer a party thereto. On October 6, 2011, we entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement with affiliates of Oak Hill that, among other things, gives Oak Hill the right to designate three nominees for election to the Board of Directors and approve the four additional non-employee directors. ACF was released and waived its rights under the Stockholders Agreement in connection with this Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, and as such is no longer a party to such agreement. As of January 26, 2012, Oak Hill owned approximately 33.4% of the outstanding shares of our common stock.

We are currently in full compliance with NYSE listing requirements related to board and committee composition as a company that no longer qualifies as a “controlled company.” Our current Board of Directors has eight members, comprised of Mr. Olsson, an employee Director, and seven non-employee Directors, each of whom the Board has determined to be independent, as “independence” is defined under the applicable rules and regulations governing “independence,” including the federal securities laws and NYSE rules, as applicable. There are currently no vacancies. Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, our Board of Directors periodically reviews the relationships between the non-employee Directors and RSC Holdings as part of the assessment of Director independence. No Director will be deemed independent unless our Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the Director has no material relationship with us, directly or as an officer, stockholder or partner of an organization that has a relationship with us.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

RSC Holdings III, LLC:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of RSC Holdings III, LLC and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of RSC Holdings III, LLC and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated January 26, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

RSC Holdings III, LLC:

We have audited RSC Holdings III, LLC’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). RSC Holdings III, LLC’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying management’s report on internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on RSC Holdings III, LLC’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, RSC Holdings III, LLC maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of RSC Holdings III, LLC and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) equity and comprehensive loss, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011, and our report dated January 26, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Organization

Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

RSC Holdings III, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged primarily in the rental of a diversified line of construction and industrial equipment, geographically dispersed throughout the United States and Canada. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of RSC Holdings Inc. (“RSC Holdings”). RSC Holdings III, LLC is a limited liability company that does not have a Board of Directors, its business and affairs are managed by the Board of Directors of RSC Holdings, its ultimate parent. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company generated approximately 86.2% of its revenues from equipment rentals, and it derived the remaining 13.8% of its revenues from sales of used rental equipment, merchandise and other related items.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RSC Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Prior to November 27, 2006, RSC Holdings was wholly owned by Atlas Copco AB (“ACAB”) and Atlas Copco Airpower n.v. (“ACA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of ACAB (together with ACAB, “Atlas”). On October 6, 2006, Atlas announced that it had entered into a recapitalization agreement pursuant to which Ripplewood Holdings L.L.C. (“Ripplewood”) and Oak Hill Capital Partners (“Oak Hill” and collectively with Ripplewood, “the Sponsors”) would acquire 85.5% of RSC Holdings (the “Recapitalization”). The Recapitalization closed on November 27, 2006. The Recapitalization was accomplished through (a) the repurchase by RSC Holdings of a portion of its issued and outstanding stock from Atlas and (b) a cash equity investment in RSC Holdings by the Sponsors for stock. The Recapitalization was accounted for as a leveraged recapitalization with no change in the book basis of assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2011, neither Ripplewood nor Atlas was an affiliate of the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, goodwill, and inventories; the allowance for doubtful accounts; deferred income taxes; environmental liabilities; reserves for claims; assets and obligations related to employee benefits; the fair value of derivative instruments and determination of share-based compensation amounts. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.

(2) Recent Development

On December 15, 2011, RSC Holdings entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with URI pursuant to which RSC Holdings will be merged (the “Merger”) with and into URI, with URI continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger. Upon completion of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of RSC Holdings’ common stock (other than shares owned by RSC Holdings, URI or any of their direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, in each case not held on behalf of third parties, and shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn) will be converted into the right to receive (i) $10.80 in cash and (ii) 0.2783 of a share of URI common stock, in each case without interest. The board of directors of each of RSC Holdings and URI has unanimously approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement and has recommended that its

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

stockholders vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement. The Merger is expected to close by the end of the first half of 2012 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of stockholders and necessary regulatory approvals.

Merger costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 consists of $7.7 million of transaction expenses related to the Company’s pending Merger with URI and $3.3 million of discretionary bonuses paid to certain members of the Company’s senior management team related to the execution of the URI Merger Agreement.

The Company entered into certain advisory agreements related to the Merger that would require payments of approximately $27.0 million upon consummation of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, no such amounts are recorded in the 2011 consolidated statement of operations. The Company expects to incur additional professional fees in 2012 in connection with the Merger.

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with insignificant interest rate risk and with maturities of three months or less at purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $7.1 million and $7.0 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Management develops its estimate of this allowance based on the Company’s historical experience, its understanding of the Company’s current economic circumstances, and its own judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate payment. Actual receivables are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company has determined the balance will not be collected. Bad debt expense is reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s customer base is large and geographically diverse. No single customer accounts for more than 2% of the Company’s rental revenues for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. No single customer accounts for more than 3% of total receivables at both December 31, 2011 and 2010. Accounts receivable consist of the following (in 000s):

	December 31,
	2011			2010
Trade receivables	$	272,362		$	214,003
Income taxes receivable		590			20,650
Other receivables		1,992			888
Less allowance for doubtful accounts		(7,065	)		(7,009	)
Accounts receivable, net	$	267,879		$	228,532

Included in income taxes receivable at December 31, 2010 are net operating loss carrybacks of $19.1 million and state, federal and Canadian overpayments of $1.6 million.

Rental Equipment

Rental equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the equipment using the straight-line method. The range of estimated lives for rental equipment is one to ten years. Rental equipment is depreciated to a salvage value of zero to ten percent of cost. The incremental costs related to acquiring rental equipment and subsequently renting such equipment are expensed as incurred. Ordinary repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred. When rental fleet is disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts, and any gains or losses are included in gross profit.

The Company has factory-authorized arrangements for the refurbishment of certain types of rental equipment. The Company continues to record depreciation expense while the equipment is out on refurbishment. The cost of refurbishment is added to the existing net book value of the asset. The combined cost is then depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the refurbished asset, which averages 48 months.

The following table provides a breakdown of rental equipment (in 000s):

	December 31,
	2011			2010
Rental equipment	$	2,723,960		$	2,426,267
Less accumulated depreciation		(1,150,767	)		(1,089,843	)
Rental equipment, net	$	1,573,193		$	1,336,424

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from three to thirty years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that increase productivity or extend the life of an asset are capitalized. Depreciation expense for leased equipment is included in depreciation and amortization of non-rental equipment and intangibles. Upon disposal, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts, and any gains or losses are included in other operating gains, net.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s long-lived assets to be held and used consist primarily of rental fleet, which the Company segregates into approximately ten major category classes based on functionality. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. The fair value of the Company’s rental fleet in relation to the assets’ carrying amount is the primary factor the Company considers in determining whether its rental fleet should be tested for recoverability.

If an impairment indicator is present, the Company evaluates recoverability by comparing the estimated future cash flows of the category classes, on an undiscounted basis, to their carrying values. The category class represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, the asset group is recoverable and no impairment is present. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, the impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset group. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company concluded impairment indicators were not present and it was therefore not necessary to test the assets for recoverability during those years.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company has made acquisitions over the years that have resulted in the recognition of a significant amount of goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, goodwill is required to be tested for impairment annually and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that might indicate impairment. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth quarter of its calendar year.

The goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process. The first step of the test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test must be performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as goodwill recognized in a business combination. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Historically, the Company has passed the first step of the goodwill impairment testing, thus the second step of the impairment test has been unnecessary.

F-12

RSC HOLDINGS III, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company is comprised of two divisions that are aggregated into one reportable segment because they are operationally and economically similar and because aggregation is consistent with the basic principles of segment reporting. The Company concluded its divisions are reporting units for purposes of testing goodwill because the component levels below its divisions do not constitute a business.

The determination of fair value under the income approach requires significant judgment by the Company. The Company’s judgment is required in developing assumptions about revenue growth, changes in working capital, selling, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures and the selection of an appropriate discount rate. The estimated future cash flows and projected capital expenditures used under the income approach are based on the Company’s business plans and forecasts, which consider historical results adjusted for future expectations.

Based on the Company’s analyses, there was no goodwill impairment recognized during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. If during 2012 market conditions deteriorate and the Company’s outlook deteriorates from the projections the Company used in the 2011 goodwill impairment test, the Company could have goodwill impairment during 2012. Goodwill impairment would not impact the Company’s debt covenants.

Reserves for Claims

The Company’s insurance program for general liability, automobile, workers’ compensation and pollution claims involves deductibles or self-insurance, with varying risk retention levels. Claims in excess of these risk retention levels are covered by insurance up to certain policy limits. The Company is fully self-insured for medical claims. The Company’s excess loss coverage for general liability, automobile, workers’ compensation and pollution claims starts at $1.0 million, $1.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.25 million, respectively. The Company establishes reserves for reported claims that are asserted and for claims that are believed to have been incurred but not yet reported. These reserves reflect an estimate of the amounts that the Company will be required to pay in connection with these claims. The estimate of reserves is based upon assumptions relating to the probability of losses and historical settlement experience. These estimates may change based on, among other events, changes in claims history or receipt of additional information relevant to assessing the claims. Furthermore, these estimates may prove to be inaccurate due to factors such as adverse judicial determinations or settlements at higher than estimated amounts. Accordingly, the Company may be required to increase or decrease the reserves.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in stockholders’ (deficit) equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Income and losses that result from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings. The Company recognized $0.3 million of other expense, net for the year ended December 31, 2011, $0.5 million of other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2010 and other expense, net of $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company’s derivative financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s derivatives, which are designated as cash flow hedges, are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), to the extent the hedges are highly effective. Ineffective portions of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in current period earnings in interest expense. Gains and losses on derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in current period earnings, in interest expense. Hedge effectiveness is calculated by comparing the fair value of the derivative to a hypothetical derivative that would be a perfect hedge of the hedged transaction. Other comprehensive income (loss) is reclassified into current period

earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on derivative instruments that are de-designated as cash flow hedges and cannot be re-designated under a different hedging relationship are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current period earnings in interest expense at the time of the de-designation.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consists of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments and the highly effective portion of the changes in the fair value of designated cash flow hedges.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short maturity of these financial instruments.

The fair values of the Company’s 2014 Notes, 2017 Notes, 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes are based on quoted market prices. The fair value of the Company’s New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, is estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of capital lease obligations approximates the carrying value due to the fact that the underlying instruments include provision to adjust interest rates to approximate fair market value.

See Note 5 for additional fair market information related to debt instruments and Note 8 for additional fair value information about other financial instruments.

Revenue Recognition

The Company rents equipment primarily to the industrial or non-construction market and the construction market. The Company records unbilled revenue for revenues earned each reporting period which have not yet been billed to the customer. Rental contract terms may be daily, weekly, or monthly and may extend across financial reporting periods. Rental revenue is recognized over the applicable rental period.

The Company recognizes revenue on used rental equipment and merchandise sales when title passes to the customer, the customer takes ownership, assumes risk of loss, and collectability is reasonably assured. There are no rights of return or warranties offered on product sales.

The Company recognizes both net and gross re-rent revenue. The Company has entered into alliance agreements with certain suppliers whereby the Company will rent equipment from the supplier and subsequently re-rent such equipment to a customer. Under the alliance agreements, the collection risk from the end user is passed to the original supplier and revenue is presented on a net basis. When no alliance agreement exists, re-rent revenue is presented on a gross basis.

Sales tax amounts collected from customers are recorded on a net basis.

Marketing and Advertising Costs

The Company advertises primarily through trade publications, promotional items and events. These costs are charged in the period incurred. Marketing and advertising costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Qualifying cooperative advertising reimbursements were $0.9 million, $0.4 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Marketing and advertising expenses, net of qualifying cooperative advertising reimbursements, were $15.2 million, $14.6 million and $15.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the tax consequences of differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax bases of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets when realization of such assets is not considered to be more likely than not. Adjustments to the deferred income tax valuation allowance are made periodically based on management’s assessment of the recoverability of the related assets.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Consideration Received from Vendors

The Company receives money from suppliers for various programs, primarily volume incentives and advertising. Allowances for advertising to promote a vendor’s products or services which meet the criteria in GAAP are offset against advertising costs in the period in which the Company recognizes the incremental advertising cost. In situations when vendor consideration does not meet the criteria in GAAP to be offset against advertising costs, the Company considers the consideration to be a reduction in the purchase price of rental equipment acquired.

Volume incentives on rental equipment are deferred and amortized as an offset to depreciation expense over 36 months, which approximates the average period of ownership of the rental equipment purchased from vendors who provide the Company with rebates and other incentives.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation for all share-based payment awards granted is based on the grant-date fair value. Generally, share-based payment awards to the employees vest in equal increments over a four-year service period from the date of grant. The grant date fair value of the award, adjusted for expected forfeitures, is amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards. As of December 31, 2011 there was $16.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation (net of forfeitures) related to unvested awards which are expected to vest over a weighted average period of approximately of 2.3 years related to the share-based compensation plans. See Note 18 for further discussion.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued an accounting standards update related to testing goodwill for impairment. The update simplifies how a company tests goodwill for impairment by allowing both public and nonpublic entities the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Under that option, an entity would no longer be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on that qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate that adoption of these amendments will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

RSC HOLDINGS III, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the existing guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, entities have the option to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Entities no longer have the option of presenting the components of other comprehensive income within the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. For public entities, the amendment is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, which for the Company is the first quarter in 2012. The adoption of this amendment will result in a change to the Company’s current presentation of comprehensive income.

In November 2011, the FASB issued an update deferring the effective date for amendments to the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this update will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued amendments to the existing guidance on fair value measurement. The amendments are intended to create consistency between U.S. generally accepted accounting standards and International Financial Reporting Standards on measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements including (i) the application of the highest and best use valuation premise concepts, (ii) measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity, and (iii) quantitative information required for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3. In addition, the amendments require additional disclosure for Level 3 measurements regarding the sensitivity of fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and any interrelationships between those inputs. For public entities, the amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, which for the Company is calendar year 2012. These changes are required to be applied prospectively. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of these amendments will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

As a result, the Company classified the outstanding balance on the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility as long-term debt at December 31, 2010. Had the Company not entered into the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, $78.4 million of the outstanding balance on the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility at December 31, 2010 would have been due November 2011 with the remaining $225.8 million due August 2013. See Senior ABL Facilities below for additional information.

(e) Capital leases include $27.4 million and $64.8 million of obligations that are classified as current and long-term debt, respectively, at December 31, 2011.

(f) The original issue discounts represent the unamortized difference between the $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes and the proceeds received upon issuance and the unamortized difference between the $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes and the proceeds received upon issuance.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $628.1 million available for borrowing under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. A portion of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans, which are seven day loans that can be drawn on the same day as requested for an amount not to exceed $25.0 million. The Company will pay fees on the unused commitments of the lenders under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility; a letter of credit fee on the outstanding stated amount of letters of credit plus facing fees for the letter of credit issuing banks and any other customary fees.

Senior ABL Facilities. As of November 27, 2006, in connection with the Recapitalization, RSC and certain of its parent companies and subsidiaries, as borrower, entered into a senior secured asset based credit facility consisting of a $1,450.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Senior ABL Revolving Facility”) and a term loan facility in the initial amount of $250.0 million (the “Senior ABL Term Facility”), (collectively the “Senior ABL Facilities”). At the Company’s election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the loans under the Senior ABL Facilities are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to either adjusted LIBOR, plus a borrowing margin; or, an alternate base rate plus a borrowing margin. The Senior ABL Revolving Facility was originally scheduled to mature five years from the Recapitalization closing date. The Senior ABL Term Loan was originally scheduled to amortize in equal quarterly installments of one percent of the aggregate principal amount thereof per annum until its maturity date, November 30, 2012, at which time the remaining balance was due. In June 2009, the Company amended the Senior ABL Facilities credit agreement to permit the issuance of $400.0 million of senior secured notes (see “2017 Notes” below) and to use such proceeds to repay the outstanding balance of the Senior ABL Term Loan as well as a portion of the outstanding balance on the Senior ABL Revolving Facility (the “Notes Credit Agreement Amendment”). In July 2009, pursuant to the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of $243.1 million on the Senior ABL Term Loan and paid down $138.2 million of the outstanding balance on the Senior ABL Revolving Facility using the proceeds from the 2017 Notes. Also pursuant to the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment, the total commitment under the Company’s Senior ABL Revolving Facility decreased from $1,450.0 million to $1,293.0 million.

In July 2009, the Company executed an amendment to the Senior ABL Revolving Facility credit agreement to extend the maturity date of a portion of the Senior ABL Revolving Facility and reduce the total commitment (the “Extension Credit Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant to the Extension Credit Agreement Amendment, the total commitment under the Company’s Senior ABL Revolving Facility decreased from $1,293.0 million to $1,100.0 million, of which $280.8 million is due November 2011 (the “Non-Extending” portion) with the remaining $819.2 million (the “Extending” portion) due August 2013.

In connection with the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment and the Extension Credit Agreement Amendment, the Company incurred $13.6 million of creditor and third party fees. The Company capitalized $12.2 million of these fees as deferred financing costs, which were allocated on a pro-rata basis to the Extending and Non-Extending portions and are being amortized to interest expense over the respective term of each. The remaining fees of $1.4

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

million were expensed as incurred. The Company also expensed $2.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs as a result of repaying the outstanding balance on the Senior ABL Term Loan. The fees expensed in connection with the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment and the Extension Credit Agreement Amendment and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the repayment of the Senior ABL Term Loan are included within (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In November 2009, the Company amended the Senior ABL Revolving Facility credit agreement (the “Extension Credit Agreement Second Amendment”) to permit the Company to prepay indebtedness under the Second Lien Term Facility and redeem or repurchase senior unsecured notes, in each case with the proceeds from the issuance of permitted refinancing indebtedness without complying with the payment conditions set forth in the amended Senior ABL Revolving Facility credit agreement (see “2019 Notes” below). In connection with the Extension Credit Agreement Second Amendment, the Company incurred $0.7 million of creditor and third party fees. The Company capitalized $0.2 million of these fees as deferred financing costs, which were allocated on a pro-rata basis to the Extending and Non-Extending portions and are being amortized to interest expense over the respective term of each. The remaining fees of $0.5 million were expensed as incurred. The fees expensed in connection with the Extension Credit Agreement Second Amendment are included within (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

On February 9, 2011, the Company entered into the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which replaced its Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, and borrowed $383.0 million of loans under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. The proceeds of these loans were used to repay the outstanding balance on the Company’s Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which totaled $370.2 million plus accrued interest and other fees of $1.1 million, and to pay a portion of transaction costs including legal fees. Total transaction costs of $12.3 million were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. In addition, the Company wrote off $2.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Additionally, on September 28, 2011 the New Senior ABL Revolving agreement was amended to increase the commitment for aggregate borrowings by approximately $110.0 million. Of this amount $85.0 million represents additional U.S. commitments and $25.0 million represents Canadian commitments. No other material modifications were made. The Company’s New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which is due February 2016, now provides commitments for aggregate borrowings of approximately $1,210.0 million subject to, among other things, the Company’s maintenance of a sufficient borrowing base under such facility. In connection with the Company’s expansion of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, the Company incurred transaction costs of $0.7 million that will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility as amended. The borrowing base reporting requirements that the Company is subject to under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility are substantially similar to those under the Old Senior ABL Revolving Facility.

The New Senior ABL Revolving Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness; provide guarantees; engage in mergers, acquisitions or dispositions; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; make dividends and other restricted payments; prepay other indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; make investments; change the nature of its business; incur liens; with respect to RSC Holdings II, LLC, take actions other than those enumerated; and amend specified debt agreements. The respective indentures governing the Notes also contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional debt; pay dividends or distributions on capital stock or repurchase capital stock; make certain investments; create liens to secure debt; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; create limitations on the ability of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or distributions to their parents; merge or consolidate with another company; and transfer and sell assets. In addition, under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, upon excess availability falling below $100.0 million, the Company will become subject to more frequent borrowing base reporting requirements and upon the excess availability falling below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving

Facility, the borrowers will be required to comply with specified financial ratios, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 and a maximum leverage ratio as of the last day of each quarter of 5.25 to 1.00, decreasing to 5.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2011.

Availability under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility is based on a borrowing base equal to a percentage of the net rental equipment, the value of our receivables and inventory subject to a maximum availability of $1,210 million. As of December 31, 2011, the borrowing base was $1,510.5 million and we had an outstanding balance of $488.0 million on our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility, $93.9 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving $628.1 million available for future borrowings and the Company was therefore not required to comply with either the fixed charge coverage ratio or leverage ratio. Had excess availability fallen below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility as of December 31, 2011, compliance with these financial ratios would have been required and the Company would have violated the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio requirement, which would be an event of default. The Company does not expect excess availability to fall below the greater of $125.0 million and 12.5% of the sum of the total commitments under the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility at any time during the next twelve months and therefore does not expect to be required to comply with the specified financial ratios during that time. If an event of default occurred, the Company would seek a waiver of the covenants and could incur upfront fees and increased interest costs. However, there can be no assurances that such a waiver could be obtained.

The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in January 2008 covering a notional amount of debt totaling $250.0 million. The objective of the swap is to effectively hedge the cash flow risk associated with a portion of the Senior ABL Revolving Facility, which has a variable interest rate. The swap expired in April 2010. See Note 6 for additional information.

Second Lien Term Facility. In connection with the Recapitalization, the Company, as borrower, entered into a $1,130.0 million senior secured second-lien term loan facility due November 30, 2013. At the Company’s election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the Second Lien Term Facility is based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to either adjusted LIBOR, plus a borrowing margin; or an alternate base rate plus a borrowing margin.

The Second Lien Term Facility contains a number of covenants substantially similar to, but no more restrictive than, the covenants contained in the Senior ABL Revolving Facility. However, under the Second Lien Term Facility, the borrowers are not required to comply with covenants relating to borrowing base reporting or to specified financial maintenance covenants.

In May 2007, $230.7 million of indebtedness under the Company’s Second Lien Term Facility and an associated prepayment penalty of $4.6 million were paid with the net proceeds from the initial public offering of RSC Holdings common stock. Additionally, in connection with the repayment of $230.7 million of indebtedness under the Company’s Second Lien Term Facility, $5.0 million of deferred financing costs related to the debt repayment were expensed.

In August 2009, the Company executed an amendment to the Second Lien Term Facility (the “Second Lien Amendment”) to permit the Company to make voluntary discounted prepayments on the outstanding balance of the Second Lien Term Facility for a one-year period beginning August 21, 2009, the effective date of the Second Lien Amendment.

During August, September and October 2009, the Company made discounted prepayments to the outstanding principal amount on the Second Lien Term Facility of $227.8 million for $200.9 million or at approximately 88% of par value, a gain of $26.9 million before fees and expenses. In connection with the Second Lien Amendment and the repurchases, the Company incurred $2.9 million of creditor and third party fees. The Company capitalized $0.8 million of these fees, which pertained to the Second Lien Amendment, as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Second Lien Term Facility. The remaining fees of $2.1 million were expensed as incurred. The Company also expensed $3.5 million of unamortized deferred financing costs as a result of these repurchases. The $21.3 million net gain on these repurchases is included within (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In November 2009, the Company prepaid $192.1 million principal of the Second Lien Term Facility at par value using the net proceeds from a $200.0 million private placement offering. See “2019 Notes” below. To permit the issuance of the 2019 Notes, the Company executed a second amendment to the Second Lien Term Facility credit agreement (the “Second Lien Second Amendment”). In connection with the Second Lien Second Amendment, the Company incurred $0.5 million of creditor and third party fees. The Company capitalized $0.2 million of these fees as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Second Lien Term Facility. The remaining fees of $0.3 million were expensed as incurred. The Company also expensed $2.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs as a result of these repurchases. The $3.2 million expense recognized on these repurchases is included within (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In September 2007, the Company entered into four forward-starting interest rate swap agreements covering a combined notional amount of debt totaling $700.0 million. The objective of the swaps is to effectively hedge the cash flow risk associated with a portion of the Second Lien Term Facility, which has a variable interest rate. In October 2009, the Company reduced the notional amount of one of these swaps from $100.0 million to approximately $71.5 million.

In November 2009, as a result of the principal repayment of the Second Lien Term Facility, the Company determined that $192.1 million of the combined notional amounts of these swaps no longer qualify as a cash flow hedge. As a result, the Company de-designated $192.1 million of discontinued cash flow hedges and in doing so, reclassified $6.7 million from other comprehensive loss to interest expense. See Note 6 for additional information.

In November 2009, the Company entered into two additional swap agreements with a combined notional amount of $192.1 million in which it exchanged fixed-rate interest payments for floating-rate interest payments. These swaps are intended to offset a portion of the fixed-rate payments the Company is making under swap agreements that were de-designated as cash flow hedges in November 2009 upon the Company prepaying $192.1 million of principal on the Second Lien Term Facility using the net proceeds from the 2019 Notes. See Note 7 for additional information.

In January 2011, the Company repaid the outstanding balance on the Second Lien Term Facility using proceeds received from the sale of the 2021 Notes. See 2021 Notes for additional information.

2014 Notes. In connection with the Recapitalization, RSC and RSC Holdings, III LLC issued $620.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.5% senior notes due 2014. Interest on the 2014 Notes is paid semi-annually, on June 1 and December 1 in each year and the 2014 Notes mature December 1, 2014.

The 2014 Notes are redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on and after December 1, 2010 at the applicable redemption price set forth below, if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on December 1 of the years set forth below:

2017 Notes. On July 1, 2009, RSC and RSC Holdings, III LLC completed a private placement offering (the “July Offering”) of $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10% senior secured notes due July 2017. The July Offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company of $389.3 million after an original issue discount of $10.7 million. Interest on the 2017 Notes is payable on January 15 and July 15, commencing January 15, 2010. To permit the issuance of the 2017 Notes, the Company executed the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment (see “Senior ABL Facilities” above) after obtaining the consent of lenders holding a majority of the outstanding Senior ABL Term Loans and the Senior ABL Revolving Facility commitments. Pursuant to the requirements of the Notes Credit Agreement Amendment, the Company used the proceeds from the July Offering (net of an $8.0 million underwriting fee) to repay the outstanding balance on the Senior ABL Term Loan of $243.1 million and pay down $138.2 million of the outstanding balance on the Senior ABL Revolving Facility.

The 2017 Notes are redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on and after July 15, 2013 at the applicable redemption price set forth below, if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on July 15 of the years set forth below:

Redemption Period	Price
2013		105.000	%
2014		102.500	%
2015 and thereafter		100.000	%

In addition, at any time on or prior to July 15, 2012, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes, with funds in an equal aggregate amount up to the aggregate proceeds of certain equity offerings of the Company, at a redemption price of 110%.

Including the $8.0 million underwriting fee noted above, the Company incurred creditor and third party fees of $9.6 million in connection with the July Offering. The Company capitalized these fees as deferred financing costs, which are being amortized to interest expense over the terms of the 2017 Notes using the effective interest rate method.

2019 Notes. On November 17, 2009, RSC and RSC Holdings, III LLC completed a private placement offering (the “November Offering”) of $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10.25% senior unsecured notes due November 2019. To permit the issuance of the 2019 Notes, the Company executed a second amendment to the Second Lien Term Facility credit agreement (the “Second Lien Second Amendment”) in order to permit the Company to issue unsecured notes without having indebtedness incurred in connection with any such issuances count against the general debt basket or any other debt incurrence requirement under the Second Lien Term Facility credit agreement as long as the proceeds from any such issuance are used within four business days of their receipt to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Term Facility. The November Offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company of $192.1 million after an original issue discount of $3.1 million and fees and expenses incurred with the November Offering of $4.8 million, which were capitalized and are being amortized through November 2019 using the effective interest rate method. Interest on the 2019 Notes is payable on May 15 and November 15, commencing May 15, 2010. The Company used the proceeds from the November Offering to pay down $192.1 million principal of the Second Lien Term Facility at par value.

2021 Notes. On January 19, 2011, the Company completed a private offering of $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.25% senior unsecured notes due February 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). The proceeds from the sale of the 2021 Notes were used to repay the outstanding balance on the Company’s Second Lien Term Facility, which totaled $479.4 million plus accrued interest of $0.7 million, redeem a portion of the 2014 Notes in February 2011 as described above, settle the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap obligations of $35.1 million and pay a portion of the transaction costs incurred with the issuance of the 2021 Notes. The transaction costs, which totaled $14.6 million, were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2021 Notes using the effective interest rate method. On February 21, 2011, the Company redeemed $117.0 million of aggregate principal of its 2014 Notes, paid accrued interest of $2.5 million on the 2014 Notes and incurred a call premium of $5.6 million, which was funded with the remaining proceeds from the 2021 Notes and in part from a draw on the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility. As a result of the Second Lien Term Facility repayment and the partial repayment of the 2014 Notes, the Company expensed $7.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, which together with the $5.6 million in call premiums, is characterized as a loss on extinguishment of debt, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011. The settlement of the Company’s interest rate swaps resulted in a charge of $33.9 million, which is characterized as interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company initiated and completed an exchange offer, in which the holders of the 2021 Notes could exchange such unregistered notes for new, registered notes. The terms of the new, registered notes offered in the exchange offer are identical in all material respects to the terms of the unregistered notes, except that the new notes were issued in a transaction registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and generally are not subject to restrictions on transfer.

The 2021 Notes are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time and after February 1, 2016 at the applicable redemption price set forth below, if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on February 1 of the years set forth below:

In addition, at any time and from time to time on or prior to February 1, 2014, the Issuers at their option may redeem up to 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes with funds in an equal aggregate amount up to the aggregate proceeds of certain equity offerings of the Company at a redemption price of 108.250%.

The indentures governing the 2014 Notes, the 2017 Notes, the 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred shares; pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect to capital stock or other restricted payments; make certain investments; and sell certain assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company continues to be in compliance with all applicable debt covenants as of December 31, 2011.

Substantially all of the Company’s rental equipment and all our other assets are subject to liens under our New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and our 2017 Notes, and none of such assets are available to satisfy the general claims of our creditors.

Capital leases. Capital lease obligations consist of vehicle leases with periods expiring at various dates through 2019. The interest rate is the same for all units and is subject to change on a monthly basis. The interest rate for December 2011 was 2.44%.

Deferred financing costs. Deferred financing costs are amortized through interest expense over the respective terms of the debt instruments using the effective interest rate method.

(6) Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to market risk associated with changes in interest rates under existing floating-rate debt. At the Company’s election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the debt under the Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the Second Lien Term Facility is based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to an adjusted London interbank offered rate, or (“LIBOR”), plus a borrowing margin; or an alternate base rate plus a borrowing margin. In order to hedge exposure to market conditions, reduce the volatility of financing costs and achieve a desired balance between fixed-rate and floating-rate debt, the Company utilizes interest rate swaps under which it exchanges floating-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest payments. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company formally documents its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking each swap at the contract’s inception and assesses whether the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective in achieving cash flows that offset changes in interest payments resulting from fluctuations in the benchmark rate. An assessment of the effectiveness of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges is performed on a quarterly basis using the perfectly effective hypothetical derivative method. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the portion of the derivative instrument determined to be effective. Gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified into earnings as interest income or expense in the periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported as interest expense for the portion of the derivative instrument determined to be ineffective. The ineffective portion of the liabilities for derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges was $104,000 at December 31, 2010. There were no derivative instruments outstanding at December 31, 2011.

During September 2007 and January 2008, the Company entered into a total of five interest rate swaps under which it exchanged benchmark floating-rate interest payments for fixed-rate payments. At the inception of these swaps, the Company concluded that each of the interest rate swaps were hedges of specified cash flows. These interest rate swaps are as follows (in millions):

Effective Date	Expiration Date	Instrument Hedged	Weighted Average Fixed Rate			Original Notional Amount		De-designated Portion		Portion of Effective Hedge Expired or Settled		Remaining Effective Hedge at December 31, 2011

Oct. 2009	Oct. 2012		Reverse Swap	(e)		20.6		20.6		—

(a) The agreements were executed to hedge only the benchmark portion of interest associated with a portion of the Second Lien Term Facility. Interest on this debt, which is settled on a quarterly basis, is based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to a benchmark interest rate, plus a borrowing margin.

(b) This swap was executed to hedge the benchmark portion of interest associated with a portion of the Senior ABL Revolving Facility. Interest on this debt, which was settled on a quarterly basis, was based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to a benchmark interest rate, plus a borrowing margin.

(c) During August, September and October 2009, the Company made a series of discounted prepayments on the Second Lien Term Facility resulting in a $227.8 million reduction in the outstanding principal balance. These repayments left a notional amount of $28.5 million on the Company’s interest rate swaps that no longer functioned as an effective hedge against the variability in expected future cash flows associated with the variable interest on the Second Lien Term Facility. As a result, the Company partially settled this interest rate swap in exchange for a termination fee of $1.2 million which was recognized as interest expense in the 2009 consolidated statement of operations.

(d) In November 2009, the Company received net proceeds of $192.1 million in connection with the issuance of the 2019 Notes, which were used to prepay a portion of the outstanding principal of the Second Lien Term Facility at par value. As a result of this prepayment, $192.1 million of notional amounts on the Company’s interest rate swaps no longer qualified as an effective hedge against the variability in expected future cash flows associated with the variable interest on the Second Lien Term Facility. The Company de-designated them as hedging instruments and in doing so, reclassified $6.7 million of losses from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense.

(e) In November 2009, the Company entered into two additional interest rate swap agreements (the “reverse swaps”) which became effective October 2009. The reverse swaps cover a combined notional amount of debt totaling $192.1 million, of which $20.6 million is for a three-year period with a fixed interest rate of 1.51% and $171.5 million is for a one-year period with a fixed interest rate of 0.32%. The reverse swaps were intended to offset a portion of the fixed-rate payments under the swap agreements that were de-designated as cash flow hedges in November 2009.

The Company presents derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet as either assets or liabilities depending on the rights or obligations under the contract. Derivatives are measured and reported in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. At December 31, 2010 the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps in a liability position totaled $33.7 million, and was classified within accrued expenses and other current and long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap in an asset position totaled $0.3 million, and was classified within other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2011 there were no derivatives instruments outstanding.

When the Company’s derivative instruments are in a net liability position, the Company is exposed to its own credit risk. When the Company’s derivative instruments are in a net asset position, the Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its hedging derivatives. To manage credit risks, the Company carefully selects counterparties, conducts transactions with multiple counterparties which limits its exposure to any single counterparty and monitors the market position of the program and its relative market position with each counterparty.

The fair value of liabilities associated with the Company’s interest rate swaps and cumulative losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the effective portion of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments and recognized within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCIL”) were as follows (in 000s):

	December 31, 2011	December 31, 2010	December 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

(8) Fair Value

Measurements

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

• Level 1 — Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

• Level 2 — Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of December 31, 2011, no assets or liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010 are as follows (in 000s):

	Fair Value December 31, 2010		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Liabilities from interest rate derivatives (a)	$	33,673	$	—	$	33,673	$	—
Assets from interest rate derivatives (a)		293		—		293		—

(a) The Company’s interest rate derivative instruments are not traded on a market exchange and therefore the fair values are determined using valuation models which include assumptions about interest rates and the Company’s and the counterparty’s credit risk based on those observed in the underlying markets (LIBOR swap rate).

Common Stock

The Company has authorized 1,000 shares of no-par common stock. At December 31, 2011 and 2010 there were 1,000 shares issued and outstanding. All shares are owned by RSC Holdings II, LLC.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends to holders of common stock is limited as a practical matter by the New Senior ABL Revolving Facility and the indentures governing the Notes.

(11) Insurance Recoveries

During 2010, the Company recorded losses of $0.9 million for flood damage to the Company’s rental equipment and property located in Nashville, Tennessee. The Company recorded a receivable due from the Company’s casualty insurance carrier with an offsetting reduction to expense for the amount of the loss incurred. During 2010, the Company received proceeds of $1.7 million related to this matter, of which $0.9 million was applied against the receivable with the remaining $0.8 million recognized as a gain within other operating gains, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. During 2010, the Company also received $2.6 million of insurance recoveries for hurricane damage to the Company’s rental equipment and property during 2008. The gain was recognized within other operating gains, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. During 2009, the Company received $7.1 million of insurance proceeds related to the hurricane matter, of which $6.9 million was applied against the receivable with the remaining $0.2 million recognized as a gain, within other operating gains, net in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009. The gains on the recoveries described above represent the difference between the replacement value of certain assets and their carrying values. Recoveries in excess of costs are considered gain contingencies and are not recognized until they are received.

The Company’s investment in its foreign subsidiary is permanently invested abroad and will not be repatriated to the U.S. in the foreseeable future. Under GAAP, because those earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested, no U.S. federal or state deferred income taxes have been provided thereon. Total undistributed earnings at December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $77.1 million and $66.0 million, respectively. Upon distribution of those earnings, in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the foreign country. A hypothetical calculation of the deferred tax liability assuming that earnings were repatriated is not practicable.

(b) Noncurrent deferred tax assets of approximately $150.8 million and $95.6 million were included in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As of December 31, 2011, deferred tax assets of $246.7 million were recorded for unutilized US Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards. The Federal net operating losses will begin to expire in 2030. With few exceptions, the state NOL’s expire over various years beginning in 2025.

As of December 31, 2011, deferred tax assets for state income tax credit carryfowards were $0.8 million which relate to credits generated as of December 31, 2004. These credits do not expire. A valuation allowance of $0.8 million was recorded at December 31, 2011 against these tax credits in the likelihood that they may not be utilized in the future.

In determining the valuation allowance, an assessment of positive and negative evidence was performed regarding realization of the net deferred tax assets. This assessment included the evaluation of scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, the availability of carry forwards and estimates of projected future taxable income. Based on the assessment, as of December 31, 2011, total valuation allowances of $0.8 million were recorded against deferred tax assets. Although realization is not assured, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not the remaining deferred tax assets of $273.7 million will be realized and as such no valuation allowance has been provided on these assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and Canadian jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2007 or state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to Canadian income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2005. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the IRS commenced an examination of the Company’s federal income tax return for the tax year ending December 31, 2009.

The changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits are as follows (in 000s):

	Unrecognized Tax Benefits
Balance at January 1, 2011	$	5,873
Additions based on tax positions related to the prior year		158
Reductions based on tax positions related to prior years		(110	)
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years — Statute Limitations Lapse		(195	)
Balance at December 31, 2011	$	5,726

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2011 and as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $5.7 million and $5.9 million, respectively. Of the unrecognized tax benefits, $5.2 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. The Company anticipates that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by $0.1 million over the next twelve months. The total amount of accrued interest and penalties as of December 31, 2011 and as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $1.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company determined that it had $6.5 million of deferred tax liabilities that were indemnified by Atlas as part of the Recapitalization. The Company accounted for this adjustment as a true-up to the Recapitalization entry by reducing deferred tax liabilities with an offsetting decrease to accumulated deficit.

Unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest and penalties of $0.7 million at both December 31, 2011 and 2010 are indemnified by Atlas through a separate agreement with Atlas (“Indemnified Positions”). The Company has established a receivable on its financial statements for these positions. Any future increase or decrease to the Indemnified Positions would result in a corresponding increase or decrease to its receivable balance from Atlas (“Indemnification Receivable”) and would not have an effect on the Company’s income tax expense. Unrecognized tax benefits and the associated interest and penalties of $6.5 million as of December 31, 2011 and $6.3 million as of December 31, 2010 are uncertain tax positions not related to the Indemnified Positions (“Un-indemnified Positions”). Interest and penalties associated with the Un-indemnified Positions are recorded as part of income tax expense.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies

At December 31, 2011, the Company had total available irrevocable letters of credit facilities outstanding of $93.9 million. Such irrevocable commercial and standby letters of credit facilities support various agreements, leases, and insurance policies. The total outstanding letters of credit include amounts with various suppliers that guarantee payment of rental equipment purchases upon reaching the specified payment date.

The Company is subject to various laws and related regulations governing environmental matters. Under such laws, an owner or lessee of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances located on or in, or emanating from, such property, as well as investigation of property damage. The Company incurs ongoing expenses and records applicable accruals associated with the removal of underground storage tanks and the performance of appropriate remediation at certain of its locations. The Company believes that such removal and remediation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company also rents equipment, real estate and certain office equipment under operating leases. Certain real estate leases require the Company to pay maintenance, insurance, taxes and certain other expenses in addition to the stated rentals.

(15) Legal and Insurance Matters

The Company is party to legal proceedings and potential claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the Company has adequate legal defenses, reserves, and insurance coverage with respect to these matters so that the ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $27.8 million and $29.2 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, to cover the uninsured portion of estimated costs arising from these pending claims and other potential unasserted claims. The Company records claim recoveries from third parties when such recoveries are certain of being collected.

(16) Affiliated Company Transactions

Sales and rentals to Atlas of $104,000, $206,000 and $419,000 in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are included in revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Amounts paid to Atlas for rental equipment and other purchases and for equipment rental were $55.3 million, $46.4 million and $14.5 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Amounts payable to Atlas were $18.2 million and $22.0 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As part of the Recapitalization, Atlas assumed certain liabilities of the Company existing on the closing date, including tax liabilities for personal property and real estate. Additionally, Atlas agreed to indemnify the Company of any and all liabilities for income taxes which are imposed on the Company for a taxable period prior to the closing date of the Recapitalization. As the legal obligation for any such payments still resides with the Company, on the date of the Recapitalization, the Company recorded a receivable for any recorded liabilities to be paid by Atlas. At both December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had receivables of $0.6 million for such amounts, which are recorded within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

During the fourth quarter of 2011, Atlas ceased to be an affiliate of the Company.

(17) Employee Benefit Plans

The Company currently sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) plan that is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). The Company also sponsors a defined contribution pension plan for the benefit of full-time employees of its Canadian subsidiary. Under these plans, the Company matches a percentage of the participants’ contributions up to a specified amount. Company contributions to the plans were $6.8 million, $5.7 million and $5.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company sponsors a deferred compensation plan whereby amounts earned and contributed by an employee are invested and held in a Company created “rabbi trust”. Rabbi trusts are employee directed and administered by a third party. As the assets of the trust are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the event of Company bankruptcy, the amounts held in the trust are accounted for as an investment and a corresponding liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and amounted to $2.2 million and $2.3 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

(18) Share-Based Compensation Plans

Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values.

Stock Incentive Plan

The RSC Holdings Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, (the “Plan”) provides for the grant of non qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, performance units, deferred shares and common shares for purchase by the Company’s eligible employees and directors. The Board of Directors administers the Plan, which was adopted in December 2006 and amended and restated in May 2007 and April 2008. In April 2008, the Plan was amended to provide for the issuance of an additional 3,600,000 shares. There are 10,982,943 shares of common stock authorized under the Plan of which 2,595,814 remain available at December 31, 2011. The exercise price for stock options granted under the Plan will be no less than market value on the date of grant. Options granted under the Plan generally vest ratably over a four or five-year service period and have ten-year contractual terms. In addition to the service-based options, RSC Holdings also granted performance-based options in 2006 with equivalent terms to those described above except that the annual vesting is contingent on the Company achieving certain defined performance targets. In April 2011, the Board of Directors approved the Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards (“LTI”) to certain officers of the Company. The LTI consists of a combination of performance-based restricted stock units, time-based restricted stock units, and premium priced stock options.

Accounting for Stock Options

The fair values of option awards are estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is estimated through a review of the Company’s historical stock price volatility and that of the Company’s competitors, adjusted for future expectations. Expected term, which represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, is estimated using expected term data disclosed by comparable companies and through a review of other factors expected to influence behavior such as expected volatility. Groups of employees that are expected to have similar exercise behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve.

Exercisable at December 31, 2011		3,258,604			7.55		5.7	$	35,637

A total of 595,366 options were exercised in the year ended December 31, 2011 and the Company received cash of $5.1 million. The Company satisfies stock option exercises by authorizing its transfer agent to issue new shares after confirming that all requisite consideration has been received from the option holder. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying stock option awards and the closing market price of the Company’s common stock of December 31, 2011. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options exercised during the year was $3.6 million.

The Company recognizes compensation expense on stock options, adjusted for expected forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service or performance period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards. Total compensation expense recognized for stock options in the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $4.6 million, $2.6 million and, $3.9 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $9.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Accounting for Restricted Stock Units

The fair value for all restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to employees and the Company’s independent directors is equal to the market value of the shares at the date of grant and is amortized over the requisite service or performance period. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and, 2009 the Company recognized compensation expense on restricted stock units of $2.4 million, $1.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $7.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock units granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Performance-based restricted stock units granted to key employees vest upon certification by the Company achieving certain defined performance targets. Vesting of time-based restricted stock units is contingent upon the employees’ continued service through the specified vest date. The Company’s three independent Directors were granted restricted stock units which are fully vested and outstanding at December 31, 2011.

The following table summarizes restricted stock units activity:

Restricted Stock Units	Shares			Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in 000s)
Outstanding at January 1, 2009 (a)		22,003

(a) The outstanding balance includes all RSUs unvested and or unreleased at the end of each year. For the years ending December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s three independent board members were granted 45,168, 73,710 and 41,616 RSUs which vested and remain unreleased and outstanding until they no longer serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

In connection with the vesting of restricted stock units during the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company made a payment of $0.1 million related to employee statutory withholding taxes that was satisfied by withholding an aggregate of 5,595 of common stock of equal value from the respective employees.
