(1)
Amounts represent aggregate debt obligations included in "Debt" in our consolidated balance sheet and include $2,767.7 million of other short-term borrowings. These amounts exclude estimated payments under interest rate swap agreements. See Note 3 to the Notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report under the caption "Item 8—Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

(2)
Amounts represent the estimated interest payments based on the principal amounts, minimum non-cancelable maturity dates and applicable interest rates on the debt at December 31, 2007. The minimum non-cancelable obligations under the International Fleet Debt, Senior ABL Facility and the Fleet Financing Facility matures between January and March 2008. While there was no requirement to do so, these obligations were subsequently renewed.

(3)
Includes obligations under various concession agreements, which provide for payment of rents and a percentage of revenue with a guaranteed minimum, and lease agreements for real estate, revenue earning equipment and office and computer equipment. Such obligations are reflected to the extent of their minimum non-cancelable terms. See Note 8 to the Notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report under the caption "Item 8—Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

(4)
As of December 31, 2007, represents our FIN 48 liability and FIN 48 net accrued interest and penalties of $18.7 million and $12.0 million, respectively. We are unable to reasonably estimate the timing of FIN 48 liability and interest and penalty payments in individual years beyond twelve months due to uncertainties in the timing of the effective settlement of tax positions. See Note 7 to the Notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report under the caption "Item 8—Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

(5)
Purchase obligations represent agreements to purchase goods or services that are legally binding on us and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Only the minimum non-cancelable portion of purchase agreements and related cancellation penalties are included as obligations. In the case of contracts, which state minimum quantities of goods or services, amounts reflect only the stipulated minimums; all other contracts reflect estimated amounts. Of the total purchase obligations as of December 31, 2007, $4,864.9 million represent fleet purchases where contracts have been signed or are pending with committed orders under the terms of such arrangements. We do not regard our employment relationships with our employees as "agreements to purchase services" for these purposes.
