SINGAPORE, March 18, 2011 - The Hertz Corporation (NYSE:HTZ), the world's largest general use car
rental company, has expanded in Malaysia with the opening of four new
branches; the airports of Johor, Kelantan, and Sabah and the downtown
location of Perak. Hertz Malaysia, managed by Hertz franchise partner, Sime
Darby Rent A Car, now has the largest network in the country - with 17
locations based at major airports and cities across the nation - and the
biggest fleet of rental cars.

Both corporate and leisure travellers are now able to easily rent a car
from any of the conveniently located offices at competitive rates. Leasing,
self-drive, chauffeur-drive and airport transfers from economy to full-size
cars, including sports utility and multi-purpose vehicles are also available
to cater to individual traveller's needs.

Michel Taride, President Hertz International and Executive Vice President
at Hertz Corporation, said: "Hertz Malaysia has been with us for 30 years,
and continues to uphold our promise to deliver best in class products and
service to our customers. As a growing destination with vast natural beauty,
Malaysia offers travellers tremendous driving pleasure. Our extended network
of car rental locations is part of the growth strategy to provide corporate
and leisure customers easy access throughout the country."

Mohd Izazi Bin Haji Hashim, General Manager at Hertz Malaysia, added:
"Malaysia is famous for its tropical forests, beaches, mountains, rich
cultural heritage, and most recently, as an ideal location for driving.
Continued geographical expansion is critical to our growth strategy as we see
an increase in the number of inbound travellers to Malaysia who wish to take
advantage of the nation's comprehensive network of highways."

The four new locations are at:

- Senai International Airport (Johor): Considered to be the primary
utility airport for business travellers to Johor, Senai is also the southern
gateway to Malaysia;

- Lumut Downtown (Perak): Located at the coastal town in the state of
Perak, and situated approximately 84km from Ipoh, Lumut is the gateway to
popular tourist destination Pangkor Island;

- Sandakan Airport (Sabah): Perfect for animal enthusiasts who visit the
famous Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre and Proboscis Monkey
Sanctuary;

- Sultan Ismail Petra Airport (Kelantan): The capital city of north
western state of Kelantan, Kota Bahru, is widely accepted as the cradle of
Malay culture and a popular destination for in-country tourism.

Hertz offers a wide suite of products and services, from the range of
vehicles to the breadth of services that support customer needs, such as the
global navigation system and 24-hour roadside assistance service.
