ITEM 1. BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) is a leading logistics and transportation company. We provide supply chain, dedicated transportation, and commercial fleet
management solutions. We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) Fleet Management Solutions (FMS), which provides full service
leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental, and maintenance services of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the
United States (U.S.), Canada and the United Kingdom (U.K.); (2) Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which provides integrated logistics solutions, including
distribution management, dedicated transportation, transportation management, last mile and professional services in North America; and (3) Dedicated
Transportation Solutions (DTS), which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles, drivers, management and
administrative support. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an operationally integrated, multi-service, supply chain solution to SCS customers are
primarily reported in the SCS business segment.
MISSION AND STRATEGY
Ryder's mission is to provide innovative fleet management and supply chain solutions that are reliable, safe and efficient, enabling our customers to deliver
on their promises. We seek to deliver valuable solutions that will compel customers to outsource their fleet management and supply chain needs to us. Our primary
strategy is to accelerate growth in our supply chain and dedicated businesses and successfully grow in our fleet management solutions business by targeting those
companies not currently outsourcing their fleet-related and logistics services as well as companies who have outsourced to other providers. This strategy is
supported by:
• leveraging secular trends to outsource transportation and logistics services which is driven by increased cost and complexity of vehicle operation, labor
constraints, and the need for efficient supply chains in a changing environment;
• offering innovative products, solutions and support services to create and strengthen customer relationships;
• delivering operational excellence through continuous productivity and process improvements;
• attracting, developing and retaining the best talent; and
• deploying technology to accelerate growth while improving operational efficiencies.

INDUSTRY AND OPERATIONS
Value Proposition
Fleet Management Solutions
Through our FMS business, we provide our customers with a variety of fleet solutions that are designed to improve their competitive position. By
outsourcing these services to us, our customers can focus on their core business, improve their efficiency and productivity, and lower their costs. Our FMS product
offering is comprised of full service leasing as well as leasing with flexible maintenance options; shorter-term commercial vehicle rental; contract or transactional
maintenance services; and value-added fleet support services to help fleet managers optimize their fleets by providing digital solutions, technology tools and
information they need in the areas of asset performance, compliance, safety, and comprehensive fuel services. In addition, we provide our customers the ability to
purchase a large selection of used trucks, tractors and trailers through our used vehicle sales facilities or through our website. FMS also provides vehicles and
maintenance, fuel and other services for all vehicles used in our SCS and DTS businesses.
Market Trends
The U.S. commercial fleet market is estimated to include 9 million vehicles, of which 5 million vehicles are privately owned by companies, 2 million
vehicles are with for-hire carriers, 1 million vehicles are leased from banks or other financial institutions, and 1 million vehicles are being leased or rented from
third parties . The companies that privately own their fleets generally provide all or a portion of the fleet management services for themselves rather than
outsourcing those services to third parties such as Ryder.
1
2
The Canadian commercial fleet is estimated at 500,000 vehicles, of which approximately 15,000 vehicles are being leased or rented from other third parties .
3
In the U.K., approximately 250,000 vehicles are being leased or rented from third parties .
Over the last several years, many key trends have been reshaping the transportation industry. Companies that own, maintain and manage their own fleet of
vehicles have put greater emphasis on the quality of their preventive maintenance and safety programs because of increased demand for efficiency and reliability.
The maintenance and operation of commercial vehicles has become more complicated and expensive, requiring companies to spend a significant amount of time
and money to keep up with new technology, diagnostics, retooling and training. Companies are also faced with labor issues, including a shortage of mechanics and
qualified truck drivers. Maintenance and other vehicle operational processes have become more costly as a result of increased regulation and active enforcement
efforts by federal and state governments require more stringent and costly operational processes and oversight. Also, fluctuating energy prices and alternative fuel
technologies have and will make it difficult for businesses to predict and manage fleet costs. In addition, the value of used vehicles has generally declined over the
past few years, which could lead to further risks when owning a vehicle. We believe these trends increase the value of our product offering and will increasingly
lead privately held fleets and the for-hire carriers to decide to outsource.
Operations
In 2020, our global FMS business accounted for 55% of our consolidated revenue.
United States. Our FMS customers in the U.S. range from small businesses to large national enterprises operating in a wide variety of industries, the most
significant of which are transportation and warehousing, food and beverage, housing, business and personal services, and industrial. At December 31, 2020, we had
535 operating locations, excluding ancillary storage locations, in 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. A location consists of a maintenance facility
and serves multiple customers. Our maintenance facilities typically include a shop for preventive maintenance and repairs, a service island for fueling, safety
inspections and preliminary maintenance checks, offices for sales and other personnel, and in many cases, a commercial rental vehicle counter. We also operate on-
site at 166 customer locations, which primarily provide vehicle maintenance solely for that customer's fleet.
Canada. At December 31, 2020, we had 33 operating locations throughout seven Canadian provinces. We also operate 14 maintenance facilities on-site at
customer properties in Canada.
Europe. At December 31, 2020, we managed a network of 344 third-party maintenance facilities and had 46 operating locations, primarily throughout the
U.K., including those that we manage on behalf of our customers. We also supply and manage vehicles and equipment for military organizations in the U.K. and
Germany. We have transformed our maintenance

network and customer support services.
FMS Product Offerings
ChoiceLease. Our lease offering, ChoiceLease, provides customers with vehicles, maintenance services, supplies, and
related equipment necessary for operation of the vehicles while our customers furnish and supervise their own drivers and exercise control over the vehicles. The
ChoiceLease offering allows customers to select the terms of their lease alongside the level of maintenance they prefer, from full service coverage to on-demand, or
pay-as-you-go, maintenance.
Our ChoiceLease customers receive the following benefits:
• We are able to leverage our vehicle buying power for the benefit of our customers because we purchase a large number of vehicles from a limited
number of manufacturers. Once we have signed an agreement with the customer, we acquire vehicles and components that are custom engineered to the
customer’s requirements and lease the vehicles to the customer for periods generally ranging from three to seven years for trucks and tractors and
typically ten years for trailers.
• We offer ChoiceLease customers a complete maintenance program designed to reduce vehicle downtime that includes a preventive maintenance plan
that is based on vehicle type and time or mileage intervals. Alternatively, we offer flexible maintenance options to our customers designed to provide
them with choices on their preferred level of maintenance. Given our continued focus on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of our maintenance
services, particularly in light of changing technology and increased regulation, we provide our ChoiceLease customers with a cost effective alternative
to maintaining their own fleet of vehicles and the flexibility to choose the maintenance program that works for them.
• Our customers have access to our extensive network of maintenance facilities and trained technicians for maintenance, vehicle repairs, 24-hour
emergency roadside service, and replacement vehicles for vehicles that are temporarily out of service.
• We typically retain vehicle residual risk exposure.
• Customers have an opportunity to enhance their standard lease with additional fleet support services, including our fuel and related services as described
below; safety services including safety training, driver certification and loss prevention consulting; vehicle use and other tax reporting, permitting and
licensing, and regulatory compliance (including hours of service administration); environmental services; and access to RyderGuide , our mobile fleet
tool that provides customers with 24/7 access to key operational and maintenance management information about their fleets; and access to
RydeSmart , a full-featured GPS fleet location, tracking, and vehicle performance telematics system. In January 2020, we announced our plan to exit
the extension of our liability insurance coverage for ChoiceLease customers, which is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2021.
®
®
For the year ended December 31, 2020, ChoiceLease revenue accounted for 62% of our FMS total revenue.
SelectCare. Through our SelectCare product line, we provide maintenance services to customers who choose not to lease some or all of their vehicles from
us. Our SelectCare customers have the opportunity to utilize our extensive network of maintenance facilities and trained technicians to maintain the vehicles they
own or lease from third parties. There are several bundles of services available to SelectCare customers including full service contract maintenance, preventive
only maintenance and on-demand maintenance. Vehicles covered under this offering are typically serviced at our own facilities. However, based on the size and
complexity of a customer’s fleet, we may operate an on-site maintenance facility at the customer’s location or through our mobile service vehicles.
We may also offer our lease and maintenance customers additional maintenance and repair services, as needed, that are not included in contractual
agreements, such as services when a customer damages a vehicle. In such situations, we generally charge the customer on an hourly basis for work performed. By
servicing all of our customers’ maintenance needs, we create stronger, long-term relationships and have greater opportunity to provide customers with a wide range
of outsourcing solutions. For the year ended December 31, 2020, SelectCare revenue accounted for 10% of our FMS total revenue.
Commercial Rental. We offer rental vehicles to customers that have a need to supplement their private fleet of vehicles on a short-term basis (one day up to
one year in length), either because of seasonal increases in their business or discrete projects with additional transportation needs. ChoiceLease customers also
utilize our commercial rental fleet to handle their peak or seasonal business needs, as substitute vehicles while their lease vehicles are undergoing maintenance, and
while they are awaiting delivery of new lease vehicles. Although a portion of our commercial rental business is purely occasional in nature, we focus on building
long-term relationships with customers so that we become their preferred source for commercial vehicle rentals. In addition to vehicle rental, we may extend
liability insurance coverage under our existing policies to our rental
3
customers as well as the benefits of cost savings and convenience of our comprehensive fuel services program. For the year ended December 31, 2020, commercial
rental revenue accounted for 16% of our FMS total revenue.

Fuel Services. We provide our FMS customers with access to diesel fuel at competitive prices at 451 of our maintenance facilities across the United States
and Canada. We also provide fuel services such as fuel planning, fuel tax reporting, centralized billing, fuel cards and fuel monitoring. Although fuel sales do not
have a significant impact on our FMS earnings, as it is largely a pass-through cost to customers, we believe allowing customers to leverage our fuel buying power
is a significant and valuable benefit to our customers. For the year ended December 31, 2020, fuel services revenue accounted for 11% of our FMS total revenue.

Used Vehicles. We primarily sell our used vehicles out of our 59 retail sales centers throughout North America (15 of which are co-located at an FMS
shop), at our branch locations and through our website at www.Usedtrucks.Ryder.com. Typically, before we offer used vehicles for sale, our technicians ensure that

leverage our maintenance expertise and strong brand reputation to realize higher sales proceeds than in the wholesale market. The realized sales proceeds of used
vehicles are dependent upon various other factors, including the general state of the used vehicle market, the supply and demand for used commercial vehicles in
wholesale and retail markets, and the age and condition of the vehicle at the time of its disposal. In recent years, the general state of the used vehicle sales market
has been particularly challenging, which has required us to increase the amount of vehicles sold in the wholesale market, and lower residual value estimates on
vehicles still in operation.

FMS Business Strategy
Our FMS business strategy is to be the leading provider of fleet management outsourcing services for light, medium and heavy duty commercial highway
vehicles. This strategy revolves around the following interrelated goals and priorities:
• drive profitable fleet growth that maximizes our return on investment by (1) successfully implementing sales and marketing initiatives designed to compel
private fleet operators and for-hire carriers to outsource all or some portion of their fleet management needs to us, (2) reducing costs through operational
efficiencies, including long-term maintenance initiatives, and (3) offering innovative products, solutions and support services that will create and
strengthen new and existing customer relationships;
• deliver a consistent, industry-leading and cost-effective lease and maintenance program to our customers through continued process improvement;
productivity initiatives; and technology improvements, which also help us attract new customers; and
• optimize asset utilization and management, particularly with respect to our rental fleet, used vehicle operations and maintenance facility infrastructure.
Competition
As an alternative to using our fleet management services, companies may choose to provide these services for themselves or to obtain similar or alternative
services from other third-party vendors.
Our FMS business segment competes with companies that provide and manage maintenance services themselves and those providing similar services on a
national, regional and local level. Many regional and local competitors provide services on a national level through their participation in various cooperative
programs. We compete with finance lessors, truck and trailer
4
manufacturers and independent dealers who provide full service lease products, finance leases, extended warranty maintenance, rental and other transportation
services. We compete with other companies based on factors such as price, geographic coverage, equipment, maintenance options, and service reliability and
quality. We also face competition from managed maintenance providers who are hired to coordinate and manage the maintenance of large fleets of vehicles
through a network of third-party maintenance providers.
Supply Chain Solutions
Value Proposition
Through our SCS business, we offer a broad range of innovative logistics management services that are designed to optimize customers' supply chain and
address customers' key business requirements. Our business is organized by industry verticals (Automotive, Technology and Healthcare, Consumer Packaged
Goods and Retail, and Industrial and Other) to enable our teams to focus on the specific needs of their customers. Our SCS product offerings are organized into five
categories: distribution management, dedicated transportation, transportation management, last mile and professional services. These offerings are supported by a
variety of information technology and engineering solutions and can be provided independently or as an integrated solution to optimize supply chain effectiveness.
Key aspects of our value proposition are our operational execution and industry expertise, which are important differentiators in the marketplace.
Market Trends
Logistics spending in the markets we target in North America equates to approximately $2 trillion, of which $245 billion is outsourced . Outsourced logistics
4
is a market with significant growth opportunity. More sophisticated supply chain practices are required as supply chains expand and become more complex and
companies look for lower cost supply chain alternatives. In addition, disruptions from unexpected events, such as natural disasters and global pandemics, have
caused companies to focus on risk management of their supply chains. For example, we believe the effects of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic are
accelerating trends toward e-commerce fulfillment, final mile delivery of big and bulky goods, and onshoring and nearshoring of manufacturing and supply chain
operations. The more complicated the supply chain or the product requirements, the greater the need for companies to utilize the expertise of supply chain solution
providers.
Operations
For the year ended December 31, 2020, our global SCS business accounted for 30% of our consolidated revenue.
U.S. At December 31, 2020, we had 190 SCS customer accounts in the U.S., most of which are large enterprises that maintain large, complex supply
chains. Most of our core SCS business operations are strategically located in geographic locations to maximize efficiencies and reduce costs. At December 31,
2020, managed warehouse space totaled approximately 57 million square feet.
We also centralize certain logistics expertise in locations not associated with specific customer sites. For example, our carrier procurement, contract
management, freight bill audit and payment services, and transportation optimization and execution groups operate out of our logistics centers in Novi, Michigan
and Fort Worth, Texas.
Mexico. At December 31, 2020, we had 145 SCS customer accounts and managed warehouse space totaling approximately 4 million square feet. Our Mexico
operations offer a full range of SCS services, which are often highly integrated with our distribution and transportation operations, and manage approximately
18,400 border crossings each month between the U.S. and Mexico.
Canada. At December 31, 2020, we had 34 SCS customer accounts and managed warehouse space totaling approximately 2.3 million square feet. The
Canadian operations are highly coordinated with their U.S. and Mexico counterparts and manage approximately 9,500 border crossings each month.

SCS Product Offerings
Distribution Management. Our SCS business offers a wide range of services relating to a customer’s distribution operations, such as designing a
customer’s distribution network; managing distribution facilities; offering an e-commerce service designed specifically for high-volumes; coordinating
warehousing and transportation for inbound and outbound material flows; handling import and export for international shipments; coordinating just-in-time
replenishment of component parts to manufacturing plants and final assembly; and providing shipments to customer distribution centers or end customer delivery
points, including support for e-commerce networks. Additional value-added services, such as light assembly of components into defined units, packaging and
refurbishment, are also offered to our customers. For the year ended December 31, 2020, distribution management solutions accounted for 39% of our SCS
revenue.
Dedicated Transportation. Dedicated transportation services are offered as part of an integrated supply chain solution to our customers. We fulfill
transportation needs for our customers with a combination of outside carriers and dedicated services. The dedicated transportation services offering combines the
equipment, maintenance, drivers and additional services to provide a customer with a dedicated transportation solution that, combined with outside transportation,
is designed to increase their competitive position, improve risk management and integrate their transportation needs with their overall supply chain. As part of our
dedicated transportation services, we also offer routing and scheduling, fleet sizing, safety, regulatory compliance, risk management, technology and
communication systems support including on-board computer and other technical support. These additional services allow our customers to mitigate labor
challenges associated with maintaining a private fleet of vehicles, such as driver recruitment and turnover, and government regulation, including hours of service
regulations, DOT audits and workers' compensation. Our dedicated transportation solution offers a high degree of specialization to meet the needs of customers
with sophisticated service requirements such as tight delivery windows, high value or time-sensitive distribution, closed-loop distribution, multi-stop shipments,
specialized equipment and integrated transportation needs. Dedicated transportation operations are located at our customer facilities, and our dedicated offering
utilizes and benefits from our extensive network of FMS facilities, which provides maintenance for all Ryder vehicles used in SCS solutions. For the year ended
December 31, 2020, approximately 33% of our SCS revenue was related to dedicated transportation services.
Transportation Management. Our SCS business offers transportation management services relating to all aspects of a customer’s transportation network.
Our team of transportation specialists provides shipment planning and execution, which includes shipment optimization, load scheduling, and delivery
confirmation through a series of technological and web-based solutions. Our transportation consultants focus on carrier procurement of all modes of transportation
with an emphasis on truck-based transportation, and also includes rate negotiation, freight bill audits and payment services. In addition, our SCS business provides
customers with brokerage services designed to provide prequalified trucking capacity in North America. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we purchased or
executed approximately $6.1 billion in freight moves on our customers' behalf, including $84 million in brokerage services. For the year ended December 31, 2020,
transportation management solutions accounted for 14% of our SCS revenue.
Last Mile. Our last mile offering consists of a network of 100 locations strategically located throughout the U.S. that receive, assemble, and prepare big and
bulky items ranging from furniture to exercise equipment for in-home or office delivery, as well as a network to help fulfill e-commerce distribution needs. We
offer tiered levels of delivery services to meet customers' needs, including placing the newly delivered item in the location of a consumer’s choosing, minor
installation and disposal of the replaced item. We use proprietary scheduling software to provide customers with the appointment times they need and optimize
routes for maximum efficiency. For the year ended December 31, 2020, our last mile service accounted for 10% of our SCS revenue.
Professional Services. In conjunction with providing the SCS services described previously, our SCS business offers a variety of knowledge-based
professional services that support every aspect of a customer’s supply chain. Our SCS professionals are available to evaluate a customer’s existing supply chain to
identify inefficiencies as well as opportunities for integration and improvement. Once the assessment is complete, we work with the customer to develop a supply
chain strategy that will create the most value for the customer and their target clients. Once a customer has adopted a supply chain strategy, our SCS logistics team,
supported by functional experts and representatives from our information technology, real estate and finance groups, work together to design a strategically focused
supply chain solution. The solution may include both a network design that sets forth the number, location and function of key components of the network and a
transportation solution that optimizes the mode or modes of transportation and route selection. In addition to providing the distribution and transportation expertise
necessary to implement the supply chain solution, our SCS representatives can coordinate and manage all aspects of the customer’s supply chain provider network
to assure consistency, efficiency and flexibility. For the year ended December 31, 2020, knowledge-based professional services accounted for 4% of our SCS
revenue.

SCS Business Strategy
Our SCS business strategy is to offer our customers differentiated, functional execution and proactive solutions from our expertise in key industry verticals.
The strategy revolves around the following interrelated goals and priorities:
• provide customers with best in class execution and quality through reliable and flexible supply chain solutions;
• develop innovative solutions and capabilities that drive value for our customers, such as RyderShare
TM
, a real-time collaborative visibility tool showing
all goods moving across the supply chain;
• create a culture of innovation and collaboration to provide solutions to meet our clients' needs;
• focus consistently on network optimization and continuous improvement;
• execute on targeted sales and marketing growth strategies; and
• expand customer relationships to include fast growing offerings in e-commerce and last mile.
Competition
As an alternative to using our services, companies may choose to internally manage their own supply chains and logistics operations, or obtain similar or
alternative services from other third-party vendors.
In the SCS business segment, we compete with a large number of companies providing similar services, each of which has a different set of core
competencies. We compete with a handful of large, multi-service companies across all of our product offerings and industries. We also compete against other
companies on specific service offerings (for example, in transportation management, distribution management or dedicated transportation) or with companies
specializing in a specific industry. We face different competitors in each country or region where they may have a greater operational presence. We compete based
on factors such as price, service offerings, market knowledge, expertise in logistics-related technology and overall performance (e.g., timeliness, accuracy, and
flexibility).
Dedicated Transportation Solutions
Value Proposition
Through our DTS business, we combine equipment, maintenance, drivers, administrative services and additional services, including routing and scheduling,
fleet sizing, safety, regulatory compliance, risk management, and technology and communication systems support to provide customers with a dedicated
transportation solution that is designed to increase their competitive position, improve risk management and integrate their transportation needs with their overall
supply chain. This solution allows us to mitigate our customers' labor challenges associated with maintaining a private fleet of vehicles, such as driver recruitment
and retention, and government regulation, including electronic logging devices and hours of service regulations, DOT audits and workers’ compensation. Our DTS
solution offers a high degree of specialization to meet the needs of customers with sophisticated service requirements such as tight delivery windows, high-value or
time-sensitive freight distribution, closed-loop distribution, multi-stop shipments, specialized equipment and integrated transportation needs.
Market Trends
The U.S. dedicated market is estimated to be $20 billion from an addressable market of approximately $400 billion . This market is affected by many of the
5
6
same trends that impact our FMS business. The administrative requirements relating to regulations issued by the DOT regarding driver screening, training and
testing, as well as record keeping and other costs associated with the hours of service requirements, make our DTS offering an attractive alternative to private fleet
and driver management. There continues to be significant pressure on the availability of qualified truck drivers and shippers continue to seek dedicated capacity
from quality transportation and logistics providers, which makes our offering attractive to potential customers. In addition, market demand for just-in-time delivery
creates a need for well-defined routing and scheduling plans that are based on comprehensive asset utilization analysis and fleet rationalization studies offered as
part of our DTS services.
Operations/Product Offerings
For the year ended December 31, 2020, our DTS business accounted for 15% of our consolidated revenue. At December 31, 2020, we had 188 DTS customer
accounts in the U.S. Because it is highly customized, our DTS product is particularly attractive to companies that operate in industries that have time-sensitive
deliveries or special handling requirements, as well as companies who require specialized equipment. DTS accounts typically operate in a limited geographic area,
and, therefore, most of the drivers assigned to these accounts are short haul drivers, meaning they return home at the end of each work day,

which helps with driver recruiting and retention. Although a significant portion of our DTS operations are located at customer facilities, our DTS business also
utilizes and benefits from our extensive network of FMS facilities, including the FMS maintenance network that services the vehicles used in DTS solutions.
In order to customize an appropriate DTS transportation solution for our customers, our DTS logistics specialists perform a transportation analysis using
advanced logistics planning and operating tools. Based on this analysis, they formulate a logistics design that includes the routing and scheduling of vehicles, the
efficient use of vehicle capacity and overall asset utilization. The goal of each customized plan is to create a distribution system that optimizes freight flow while
meeting a customer’s service goals. A team of DTS transportation specialists can then implement the plan by leveraging the resources, expertise and technological
capabilities of both our FMS and SCS businesses.
To the extent a distribution plan includes multiple modes of transportation (air, rail, sea and highway), our DTS team, in conjunction with our SCS
transportation specialists, selects appropriate transportation modes and carriers, places the freight, monitors carrier performance and audits billing. In addition,
through our SCS business, we can reduce costs and add value to a DTS customer’s distribution system by aggregating orders into loads, looking for shipment
consolidation opportunities and organizing loads for vehicles that are returning from their destination point back to their point of origin (backhaul).
DTS Business Strategy
Our DTS business strategy is to offer services to customers who need specialized equipment, specialized handling or integrated services. This strategy
revolves around the following interrelated goals and priorities:
• increase market share to provide more specialized services with customers across industries, including customers in the retail, metals and mining, energy
and utility, consumer product goods, construction, and food and beverage industries;
• develop innovative solutions and capabilities that drive value for our customers, such as RyderShare
TM
, a real-time collaborative visibility tool showing
all goods moving across the supply chain;
• utilize the support of the FMS sales team to compel private fleet operators to outsource all or some of their transportation needs to us;
• align the DTS business with other SCS product lines to create revenue opportunities and improve operating efficiencies in both segments;
• leverage secular outsourcing trends, such as driver shortage and increased safety regulations and equipment costs; and
• improve competitiveness in the non-specialized and non-integrated customer segments.
Competition
Our DTS business segment competes with other dedicated providers and truckload carriers servicing on a national, regional and local level. We compete with
these companies based on a number of factors, including price, equipment options and features, maintenance, service and geographic coverage, driver availability
and operations expertise. We are able to differentiate our DTS product offering by leveraging our FMS vehicles and maintenance services and integrating the DTS
services with those of SCS to create a more comprehensive transportation solution for our customers. Our strong safety record and focus on customer service also
enables us to uniquely meet the needs of customers with high-value products that require specialized handling in a manner that differentiates us from truckload
carriers.
STRATEGIC INITIATIVES
In addition to our continued focus on organic growth, strategic initiatives, including acquisitions and other investments or partnerships, play an important
role in enhancing our growth strategy. In our SCS and DTS business segments, we focus on adding technological capabilities and product offerings, potentially
expanding into new industries, diversifying our customer base within our current industries, and improving our competitive position. In assessing potential
acquisitions and investments in our FMS business segment, we look for opportunities that would create value through operating synergies, expanding our service
offerings, providing more efficient ways to offer or deliver our services, leveraging our existing facility infrastructure, improving our geographic coverage and
diversifying our customer base.
COVID-19
Our business has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. For a detailed discussion of its impact on our results of operations and
future considerations, refer to our "Consolidated Results" and "Operating Results by Business Segment" discussions in the Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

and Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, for a detailed description of certain risk
factors that impact our business, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to “Item 1A-Risk Factors” and "Special Note Regarding Forward-
Looking Statements" sections included in this Annual Report.
CYCLICALITY
Our business is impacted by economic and market conditions. In a strong economic cycle, there is generally more demand for our fleet management,
dedicated transportation and supply chain services. In a weak or volatile economy, demand for our services decreases and is considerably more unpredictable.
Because of these factors, we have continued to focus on increasing the diversity of our customer base and strengthening our long-term business partnerships with
our customers. Although we believe these efforts help mitigate the immediate impact of an economic downturn, customers are often unwilling to commit to a full-
service lease or long-term supply chain and dedicated contracts during a protracted or severe economic downturn. Because commercial rental and used vehicle
sales are transactional, they are more cyclical in nature and are also heavily dependent on economic and market conditions, and results can vary significantly in
both the short- and long-term. We mitigate some of the potential impact of an economic downturn through a disciplined and centralized approach to asset
management. This approach allows us to manage the size, mix and location of our operating fleet and used vehicle inventories to try and maximize asset utilization
and used vehicle proceeds in both strong and weak market conditions.
REGULATION
Our business is subject to regulation by various federal, state, local and foreign governmental entities. The DOT and various federal and state agencies
exercise broad powers over certain aspects of our business, generally governing such activities as authorization to engage in motor carrier operations, safety and
operations. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), under the DOT, manages a Compliance, Safety, Accountability initiative (CSA),
partnering with state agencies designed to monitor and improve commercial vehicle motor safety, which uses roadside inspections and violations to measure motor
carriers and drivers. The FMCSA also has regulations mandating electronic logging devices in commercial motor vehicles that impact various aspects of our
dedicated, supply chain and rental businesses.
We are also subject to a variety of laws and regulations promulgated by national, state, provincial and local governments, including the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), which regulate safety, the management of hazardous materials, water
discharges, air emissions, solid waste disposal and the release and cleanup of regulated substances. In addition, we must comply with licensing and other
requirements imposed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Customs Service as a result of increased focus on homeland security and our
Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism certification. We may also become subject to new or more restrictive regulations imposed by these agencies or other
authorities or states relating to carbon controls and reporting, engine exhaust emissions, drivers’ hours of service, wage and hour requirements, security including
data privacy and cyber security and ergonomics. We are also subject to a variety of state and local regulations related to pandemic response, including health and
wellness and sanitation responses in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has, and will, require us to incur costs to comply with these regulations.
Additional information about the regulations that we are subject to can be found in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We do not
believe compliance with governmental laws and regulations will have a material adverse effect on capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
Refer to Note 19, “Environmental Matters,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion surrounding environmental matters.
HUMAN CAPITAL
We strive to create a high-performance culture that embraces diverse perspectives and experiences and ensure that employees have opportunities to develop
the skills they need to grow and excel in their fields. Human capital management is a priority for our executives and Board of Directors. We are committed to
identifying and developing the talent necessary for our long-term success. We have a robust talent and succession planning process and have established programs
to support the development of our talent pipeline for critical roles in our organization. Annually, we conduct a robust review with the leadership team focusing on
high performing and high potential talent, diverse talent and succession for our critical roles.
We also recognize that it is important to develop our future leaders. We provide a variety of resources to help our employees build and develop their skills,
including online development resources as well as individual development opportunities and projects for key talent. Additionally, we have leadership development
resources for our future leaders as they
9
continue to develop their skills. We invest in our employees by offering comprehensive health, welfare and retirement programs, along with wellness programs and
well-being initiatives.
At December 31, 2020, we had approximately 39,000 full-time employees worldwide, of which 38,000 were employed in North America and 1,000 in
Europe. We currently employ approximately 8,600 drivers and 5,400 technicians. We have approximately 25,200 hourly employees in the U.S., approximately
3,500 of which are organized by labor unions. Those employees organized by labor unions are principally represented by the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, and the United Auto Workers. Their wages and benefits are governed by 96
separate labor agreements which are renegotiated periodically. Although we have not experienced a material work stoppage or strike, these events can potentially
occur given the types of businesses in which we currently engage. We consider the relationship with our employees to be good. Refer to "We may face difficulties
in attracting and retaining drivers and technicians", included in Item 1A. Risk Factors for further information regarding risk associated with our human capital and
the attraction, development, and retention of personnel.
Safety
Our safety culture is founded upon a core commitment to the safety, health and well-being of our employees, customers and the community. As a core value,
our focus on safety is embedded in our day-to-day operations, reinforced by many safety programs and continuous operational improvement and supported by a
talented and dedicated safety organization.
We have created and implemented policies, processes and training programs to minimize safety events. We review and monitor our performance closely. We
deploy relevant vehicle safety systems in the vehicles we operate, including active brake assistance, lane departure warning systems and stability control, to
enhance safety performance. We also install aftermarket safety monitoring systems that provide effective means for our operations teams to measure and improve
driver performance, including in-vehicle video event recorders. Training is also a key component of our safety program. We use certified driver trainers to on-
board and train our drivers using first hand experienced certified driver trainers. Proactive injury and crash prevention and remedial training are also delivered
regularly online to each employee through a highly interactive lesson platform. Regular safety behavioral observations are conducted by managers throughout the
organization every day and remedial training and coaching takes place on the spot. Our proprietary, web-based safety management system, RyderSafetyNet
delivers monthly proactive safety programs as well as safety compliance tasks tailored to every location and helps measure safety activity effectiveness across the
organization. Our safety policies require that all managers, supervisors and employees incorporate safe processes in all aspects of our business. Monthly safety
scorecards are tracked and reviewed by management for progress toward key safety objectives.

COVID-19 and Employee Safety and Wellness
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety and well-being of our employees and their families has been a top priority, consistent with our company's core
values, as we continue to serve our customers. Our operations supporting the supply chains and transportation needs of our customers has been deemed essential
and we have continued operations during this period, but with diligent emphasis around following the guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and
applicable state and local governments. We have adopted and implemented the COVID-19 Exposure Prevention, Preparedness, and Response Plan (COVID
Response Plan), which defines our policies and procedures designed to mitigate the potential for transmission of COVID-19 and prevent exposure to illness from
certain other infectious diseases. Among other things, the COVID Response Plan details employee and company responsibilities related to house-keeping and
sanitization, hygiene and respiratory etiquette, use of personal protective equipment, employee and visitor screening procedures, leave policies and
accommodations, remote working opportunities and infrastructure, and protocols for not reporting to work and when to return to work upon potential or confirmed
COVID-19 exposure or infection. Company leadership and each business has increased the frequency of cross-functional communications to quickly identify and
address any pandemic related needs. In addition, we use technology resources and human capital to develop tracking tools with predictive capabilities in an effort
to further protect the workforce and efficiently deploy resources to do so. Further, we refined our wellness programs and communications aimed at informing
employees about the pandemic, as well as engaging employees with healthcare providers to promote the proactive evaluation, tracking, and management of major
health and wellness indicators.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following is a cautionary discussion of the material risks and uncertainties that management believes affect us. Any of the following risks, as well as risks that
we do not know or currently deem immaterial, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Accordingly, you
should carefully consider the following risk factors in conjunction with all of the other information set forth in or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-K.
Risks Related to our Business and Operations
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted, and may continue to adversely impact, our business, results of operations and financial condition, and
the ultimate impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and
cannot be predicted.
Our business is highly susceptible to changes in economic conditions and our products and services are directly tied to the production and sale of goods and,
more generally, to the North American economy. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken in response to its spread have severely impacted economic and
commercial activity, and, as a result, transportation and supply chain companies such as ours have experienced slowdowns and reduced demand.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving
factors that are difficult to accurately predict, including: the duration and scope of the pandemic and the potential for additional outbreaks and new strains of the
virus; how quickly and to what extent prior levels of economic activity can resume; the timing of the development and distribution of an effective vaccine or
treatments for COVID-19; governments', businesses' and individuals’ actions in response to the pandemic; the prolonged effect on customer demand for our goods
and services and the customer’s ability to pay for these goods and services.
The adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant automotive production slowdowns or shutdowns which resulted in a deterioration in
SCS automotive customer activity starting in April, which represents a significant portion of our SCS revenue. Our automotive customers that were shut down
restarted production in May and are generally at normal operating levels. This period of automotive slowdowns or shutdowns was followed by increased consumer
demand in the second half of 2020, particularly in the fourth quarter. This surge in demand contributed to a worldwide semiconductor supply shortage in early
2021, as semiconductor suppliers have been unable to rapidly reallocate production to respond to demand across multiple industries, particularly the automotive
industry. We are currently assessing the potential supply chain impacts of this worldwide shortage, which may directly or indirectly impact the production activity
of our automotive SCS customers. While we are working closely with our automotive SCS customers to monitor and mitigate any potential adverse impacts, such
mitigation efforts may not be successful or may have further negative impacts. Any negative impacts, including reduced volumes, delays or disruptions in
production on automotive SCS customer operations may have a material adverse impact on our SCS revenues and earnings. Furthermore, the semiconductor
shortage may cause production delays for our original equipment manufacturers' (OEM) suppliers that provide vehicles for our FMS business, which could
adversely impacting our FMS business and profitability.
We have also experienced varying impacts with our SCS customers in non-automotive industries as well as with our DTS customers, with some customers
and industries, such as off price/discount and clothing retailers, experiencing lower volumes and others, like consumer-packaged goods, experiencing volume
increases. Lower volumes and revenues in our non-automotive SCS industries and in DTS have a lesser impact on our earnings as our fees are less variable.
As a result of government actions taken, such as shutdowns of large gatherings and mandated social distancing orders, as well as the significant reduction in
business activity across the U.S., demand for our commercial rental vehicles and rental utilization rates decreased significantly throughout the first half of 2020 and
have negatively impacted our earnings. Although we have seen positive commercial rental demand trends in the second half of 2020, if demand further deteriorates
or does not seasonally increase as it has in prior years, we may not be able to attain or maintain our utilization targets. As a result, we may be required to further
downsize our fleet and decrease our pricing. In addition, we may not be able to redeploy rental vehicles with lease customers due to lack of demand for such
vehicles. Each of these occurrences could result in lower revenues and further adverse impacts on our financial results.
In addition, in our FMS segment, we experienced a weakening of market conditions in used vehicle sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue
to regularly review and update our outlook for the used vehicle market, as appropriate, and, if our outlook is below our multi-year pricing averages, we may be
required to further decrease residual value estimates to better align with current market conditions and our outlook. In addition, if weak market conditions continue
for a prolonged period or further deteriorate, we may also need to sell additional vehicles at wholesale prices which would require us to take additional valuation
adjustments. Any residual value estimate changes and valuation adjustments made in future periods would
13
be incremental to any prior residual value estimate changes previously taken for vehicles in the fleet. If we determine to decrease residual value estimates or record
valuation adjustments, these changes could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and liquidity.
With respect to our ChoiceLease product line, our customers have signed long-term lease contracts and, therefore, we do not expect our revenue and cash
flows to be materially affected provided our customers remain solvent and continue to make their payments on their contractual obligations. We have experienced
decreases in new ChoiceLease sales as well as a decrease in miles driven by our customers throughout 2020. Any prolonged decrease in sales activity and miles
driven could adversely affect our growth prospects.
The financial condition of our customers, primarily in FMS, are being adversely impacted and have resulted and may continue to result in an increase in
bankruptcies or insolvencies, or a delay in payments, which may, in turn, impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have established
additional credit loss reserves due to our expectations for COVID-19 related payment activity and may need to increase our credit loss reserves if economic
conditions worsen for our customers. Further, in the event of a prolonged economic downturn which has a material negative impact on our earnings and free cash
flow, we may not be able to comply with our financial covenant in our global revolving credit facility which, in the absence of a bank waiver, would negatively
impact our ability to borrow under that facility and negatively impact our liquidity position. We periodically evaluate factors to determine if it is more likely than
not that our assets are impaired, including goodwill. These factors include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, changes in our industry and the
markets in which we operate, and our market capitalization, as well as our reporting units’ expected future financial performance. We undertook an interim
goodwill impairment test related to our FMS NA reporting unit as of March 31, 2020 and concluded that no impairment was necessary. On October 1, 2020, we
performed our annual goodwill impairment test and determined there were no indicators of impairment to goodwill for our reporting units. At this time, it remains
uncertain whether and to what extent we may need to record charges for impairments in the future as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition to the operational impacts described above, the COVID-19 pandemic may present or heighten other operational risks to our business. Remote
working arrangements may decrease employee productivity, increase cybersecurity risks and the strain on our technology systems, and adversely affect our internal
controls over financial reporting. Further, our business may be adversely affected if key personnel become ill from COVID-19 and are unable to work.
Due to the increase in claims as a result of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, insurance companies may limit or stop offering coverage to companies
like ours or increase the cost of such insurance so that it is no longer available at commercially reasonable rates. This trend could adversely affect our ability to
obtain suitable insurance coverage or increase the cost for such coverage significantly, each of which may adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations, liquidity or cash flows.
Decreased customer demand for transportation services due to adverse economic conditions, competition or other factors have and could in the future
adversely impact our business and operating results.
The transportation industry is highly cyclical and highly susceptible to trends in economic activity. Weakness or uncertainty in economic conditions in the
U.S., and to a lesser extent the other geographic markets in which we operate, could adversely impact our business and operating results. Our business relies on the
strength of our customers’ businesses and the level of confidence our customers have about current and future economic conditions and trends. Our vehicles are
leased or rented to customers that transport goods commercially, so the demand for our products and services is tied directly to the production and sale of goods by
our customers, and more generally, the health of the North American economy and overall levels of competition in the transportation and logistics industry.
Because of this, our business may begin to slow before market slowdowns, at the point of customer uncertainty, and may recover later than market recoveries, as
our customers may continue to feel uncertain about future market conditions. If uncertainty and lack of customer confidence around macroeconomic and
transportation industry conditions increase, our future growth prospects, business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Among our services and product offerings, demand for our longer-term contractual services is particularly susceptible to changes in economic and market
conditions, as customers are often unwilling to commit to long-term lease, maintenance, dedicated services or supply chain contracts in a weak or volatile
economy. Accordingly, any sustained weakness in demand or a protracted economic downturn can negatively impact performance and operating results in our
longer-term contractual services, which include ChoiceLease and SelectCare contracts in our FMS business segment, supply chain and last mile delivery contracts
in our SCS business segment and dedicated services in our DTS business segment.
14
We bear the residual risk on the value of our vehicles.
Impact on Used Vehicle Sales. We generally bear the risk that we will not be able to resell our vehicles at a price equal to or above their expected residual
values. If we overestimate a vehicle’s residual value this could contribute to lower gains or losses on sales of our used vehicles. A decline in market demand for
used vehicles or a change in our outlook for demand and pricing would likely result in a reduction in our residual values. Factors that could contribute to a decline
in the market demand for used vehicles include an oversupply of vehicles in the marketplace; decline in customers due to economic conditions; concerns regarding
the real or perceived quality, maintenance or condition of our vehicles; foreign exchange movements; or changes in technology or vehicle types, including broader
acceptance of alternative fuel vehicles, that render select vehicles or technology obsolete or less attractive to purchasers. We sell our used vehicles through various
channels, including retail sales centers, at our branch locations, through our website at www.UsedTrucks.Ryder.com, as well as through the wholesale market.
Pricing and demand for used vehicles varies among selling channels, particularly between the retail and wholesale markets, as we generally obtain lower proceeds
on vehicles sold through wholesale channels. If we are unable to meet our targeted sales goals and inventory levels through our projected sales mix of retail versus
wholesale, we may be required to sell more vehicles than planned through the wholesale market, which will impact our sales proceeds.
The conditions in the third quarter of 2019 and first half of 2020 triggered a re-evaluation of our residual value estimates which resulted in changes to our
estimated vehicle values. We have not made any significant changes to our residual value estimates since the second quarter of 2020.
We will continue to regularly review and update our outlook for the used vehicle market, as appropriate, and, if our outlook is below our multi-year pricing
averages, we may be required to further decrease residual value estimates to better align with current market conditions and our outlook. In addition, if weak
market conditions continue for a prolonged period or further deteriorate, we may also need to sell additional vehicles at wholesale prices which would require us to
take additional valuation adjustments. Any residual value estimate changes and valuation adjustments made in future periods would be incremental to any prior
residual value estimate changes previously taken for vehicles in the fleet. If we determine to decrease residual value estimates or record valuation adjustments,
these changes could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and liquidity.
Impact on our ChoiceLease Product Line. Changes in residual values also impact the overall competitiveness of our ChoiceLease product line, as
estimated sales proceeds are a significant component of the overall price of the lease. Additionally, vehicle type or technology changes, sudden changes in supply
and demand, competitor pricing, and other market factors beyond our control, vary from year to year and from vehicle to vehicle, making it difficult to accurately
predict residual values used in calculating and pricing our ChoiceLease arrangements. Although we have developed disciplines related to the management and
maintenance of our leased vehicles designed to maximize the value of our used vehicles, there is no assurance that these practices will sufficiently reduce the
residual risk.
For a detailed discussion on our accounting policies and assumptions relating to depreciation and residual values, please see “Critical Accounting Estimates -
Depreciation and Residual Value Estimates” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Our profitability has been and could in the future be negatively impacted if our key operational assumptions and pricing structure prove to be invalid.
Substantially all of our SCS and DTS services, as well as our ChoiceLease and SelectCare products, are provided under long-term contractual arrangements
with our customers. These contractual arrangements include pricing terms that are subject to a number of key operational assumptions including, but not limited to:
•
•
•
with respect to our SCS contracts, the scope of services, production volumes, operational efficiencies, the mix of fixed versus variable costs,
productivity and other factors;
with respect to our DTS contracts, market wages, availability of labor, insurance rates and other operating costs that experience market fluctuations;
and
with respect to our ChoiceLease and SelectCare contracts, residual values (ChoiceLease only) and maintenance expense.
If we are incorrect in our assumptions, or, as a result of subsequent changes in customer demand or other market forces that are outside of our control, these
assumptions prove to be invalid, we could have lower margins than anticipated in a

contract or segment, lose business, or be unable to offer competitive products and services. For example, our SCS and DTS services are highly customized and
offer a high degree of specialization to meet the needs of our customers. We may not be able to adjust the pricing terms in some of our SCS and DTS contracts in
the event any of our assumptions prove to be incorrect or invalid. As a result, if we do not accurately predict the costs to us to execute the SCS or DTS contract, it
could result in a significant decrease in revenue or loss on the contract that could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Additionally,
although some of our SCS or DTS contracts provide for renegotiation upon a material change, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining the
necessary price adjustments or that pricing will be sufficient to cover the risk.
Our capital intensive business requires us to make capital decisions based upon projected customer activity levels and market demand for our
commercial rental product line.
We make significant investments in vehicles to support our rental business based on anticipated customer demand. We make commitments to purchase the
vehicles many months in advance of the expected use of the vehicle and seek to optimize the size and mix of the commercial rental fleet based on demand
projections and various other factors. As a result, our business is dependent on our ability to accurately estimate future levels of rental activity and consumer
preferences to effectively capitalize on market demand in order to drive the highest levels of utilization and revenue per unit. Missing our projections could result
in too much or too little capacity in our rental fleet. Overcapacity could require us to deploy or sell vehicles at lower than anticipated pricing levels which may
result in asset write-downs. In addition, overcapacity could result in lower revenues and higher costs and have an adverse impact on profitability. Undercapacity
could impact our ability to reliably provide rental vehicles to our customers and may negatively affect our profitability and our reputation. We employ a sales force
and operations team on a full-time basis to manage and optimize this product line; however, their efforts may not be sufficient to overcome unforeseen changes in
market demand in the rental business. In contrast, in our ChoiceLease product line, we typically do not purchase vehicles until we have an executed contract with a
customer.
We may fail to respond adequately or in a timely manner to innovative changes in new technology in our industry.
In recent years, our industry has been characterized by rapid changes in technology, leading to innovative transportation and logistics concepts that have
impacted or have the potential to significantly impact our business model, competitive landscape and the industries of our customers and suppliers. For example,
new concepts are currently under development for more advanced electric vehicles, autonomous or semi-autonomous self-driving vehicles, connected vehicle
platforms, and drones. Additional innovations impacting the transportation, trucking and supply chain/logistics industries are likely that we cannot yet foresee. In
addition, there is a rapidly growing demand for e-commerce services, last mile home delivery and asset- and freight-sharing services, which continue to disrupt the
transportation industry with the goal of bringing efficiencies to the transportation marketplace.
Our inability to quickly adapt to and adopt new innovations in products and processes desired by our customers may result in a significant loss of demand for
our service offerings. In addition, advances in technology may require us to increase investments in order to remain competitive, and our customers may not be
willing to accept higher prices to cover the cost of these investments. An increase in customer use of electric vehicles could reduce the demand for our vehicle
maintenance services, diesel vehicles and related offerings. Likewise, self-driving vehicles may reduce the demand for our dedicated service offerings, where, in
addition to a vehicle, Ryder provides a driver as part of an integrated, full service customer solution. While we are actively engaged in developing strategic
partnerships with new technology providers, developing new products, and evaluating emerging technology, we cannot be certain that such initiatives will be
successful or timely, and our failure to successfully and timely implement any of these initiatives could have an adverse impact on our financial condition or results
of operations. In addition, the speed of onset and adoption of any new technologies may be affected by changes in the political or regulatory environment, which
could further increase our investment costs for new technologies, operating complexity and our ability to offer such technologies to our customers in the
jurisdictions in which we operate.
Failure to maintain, upgrade and consolidate our information technology networks could adversely affect us.
Our success depends on the functionality of information technology systems to support our service offerings. Extended delays or cost overruns in securing,
developing and otherwise implementing technology solutions to support our business and the business initiatives we will be developing in the future would delay
and possibly prevent us from realizing the projected benefits of these initiatives. In addition, our reputation with our customers may suffer if outages, system
failures or delays in timely access to data occur in our information technology systems that support key business processes.
16
We are continuously upgrading and consolidating our information technology systems by enhancing legacy systems, replacing legacy systems with successor
systems and acquiring new systems with enhanced functionality. These types of activities subject us to additional costs and inherent risks associated with replacing
and modifying our existing systems, including impairment of our ability to provide our services, disruption of our internal control structure, substantial capital
expenditures, additional administration and operating expenses, retention of sufficiently skilled personnel to implement and operate the new systems, demands on
management time, disruptions in our business operations, and other risks and costs of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems or integrating new
systems into our current systems. Our system implementations may not result in productivity improvements at a level that outweighs the costs of implementation,
or at all.
We also continue the transition to our new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. This new system is designed to improve efficiencies and integrate
and automate certain internal financial, operating, and other technology applications that are critical to our business operations. While we have invested, and
continue to invest significant amounts, including for additional personnel and third-party consultants, to implement and operate this system, it is possible that we
may experience difficulties following the transition. Any significant disruptions, delays, deficiencies, or errors in the design, implementation, and utilization of the
ERP system could adversely affect our operations, including our ability to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, file our quarterly or annual
reports with the SEC, and invoice and collect from our customers, each of which may harm our operations and reduce investor confidence. Data integrity problems
or other issues may be discovered once the transition is complete, which, if not corrected, could impact our business, reputation, reporting, disclosures or results of
operations. If we encounter unforeseen difficulties with our new ERP system, there will be additional demands on our management team and our business,
operations, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We operate in a highly competitive industry and our business may suffer if we are unable to adequately address potential downward pricing pressures
and other competitive factors.
The transportation industry is highly competitive. We face competition in all geographic markets and each industry sector in which we operate. Increased
competition or our inability to compete successfully may lead to a reduction in revenues, reduced profit margins, increased pricing pressure, or a loss of market
share, any one of which could affect our financial results. Numerous competitive factors could impair our ability to maintain our current profitability, including the
following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
our inability to obtain expected customer retention levels or profitability;
we compete with many other transportation and logistics service providers, some of which have greater capital resources or lower cost structures
than we do;
our inability to compete with new entrants in the transportation and logistics market that may offer similar services at lower cost or have greater
technological capabilities;
customers may choose to provide the services we provide for themselves;
our competitors may periodically reduce their prices to gain business, especially during times of declining economic growth, which may limit our
ability to maintain or increase prices or impede our ability to maintain our profitability or grow our market share or profitability;
many customers periodically accept bids from multiple carriers for their shipping needs, and this process may depress rates or result in the loss of
some of our business to competitors;
the continuing trend toward consolidation in the trucking industry may result in larger carriers with greater financial resources than we have;
advances in technology require increased investments to remain competitive, and our customers may not be willing to accept higher prices to cover
the cost of these investments; and
because cost of capital is a significant competitive factor, any increase in either the cost of our debt or equity as a result of reductions in our debt
rating or stock price volatility could have a significant impact on our competitive position.
17
Failure to execute our business strategy and develop, market and consistently deliver high-quality services efficiently that meet customer expectations
may cause our revenue and earnings to suffer.
Our long-term business strategy is to target clients new to outsourced transportation and logistics services and thereby expand the market for our services and
deliver those services efficiently. We seek to execute our strategy by providing operational excellence, superior talent and best-in-class information technology. By
providing high-quality leasing services, we aim to attract customers that traditionally have only been interested in operating their own transportation and logistics
networks.
To successfully execute on this strategy, we must continue to focus on developing innovative solutions that meet our existing and target customers’ evolving
needs and keep pace with our competitors. Expanding our service offerings to entice and support new clients may strain our management, capital resources,
information systems and customer service. We may also need to hire new employees, which may increase costs and may result in temporary inefficiencies until
those employees become proficient in their jobs.
Notwithstanding our efforts, new or enhanced service offerings may not meet customer demands, prove to be profitable or succeed in the long term. If we do
not respond to current customer needs and establish new, and further develop existing, customer relationships, our ability to maintain a competitive advantage and
continue to grow our business profitability could be negatively affected.
We and the vehicle equipment manufacturers in our FMS business rely on a small number of suppliers.
We buy vehicles and related equipment from a relatively small number of OEMs in our FMS business. Some of our vehicle manufacturers rely on a small
concentration of suppliers for certain vehicle parts, components and equipment. A discrete event in a particular OEM’s or supplier’s industry or location, or adverse
regional economic conditions impacting an OEM or supplier’s ability to provide vehicles or a particular component, could adversely impact our FMS business and
profitability. In addition, our business and reputation could also be negatively impacted if any parts, components or equipment from one of our suppliers suffer
from broad-based quality control issues or become the subject of a product recall and we are unable to obtain replacement parts from another supplier in a timely
manner. Although we believe we have alternative sources of supply for the equipment and other supplies used in our business, termination or significant alteration
of our relationship with any of our key suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the unlikely
event that we were unable to obtain adequate equipment or supplies from other sources in a timely manner or at all.
We derive a significant portion of our SCS and DTS segment revenue from a relatively small number of customers.
During 2020, sales to our top ten SCS customers accounted for 53% of our SCS total revenue and 49% of our SCS operating revenue (total revenue less fuel
and subcontracted transportation). Additionally, approximately 34% of our global SCS revenue is from the automotive industry and is directly impacted by
automotive vehicle production. Our top ten DTS customers accounted for 44% of DTS total revenue and 40% of DTS operating revenue. The loss of any of these
customers or a significant reduction in the services provided to any of these customers could materially and adversely impact our operating results. While we
continue to focus our efforts on diversifying our customer base, we may not be successful in doing so.
We are also subject to credit risk associated with the concentration of our accounts receivable from our SCS and DTS customers. If one or more of these
customers were to become bankrupt, insolvent or otherwise were unable to pay for the services provided by us, we may incur significant write-offs of accounts
receivable or incur lease or asset impairment charges that could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
In addition, many of our customers operate in cyclical or seasonal industries, or operate in industries, including the food and beverage industry, that may be
impacted by unanticipated weather, growing conditions (such as drought, insects or disease), natural disasters, pandemics, and other conditions over which we have
no control. A downturn in our customers’ businesses or unanticipated events impacting their businesses could cause a reduction in freight volume shipped by those
customers or a reduction in their need for our services, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
We may face difficulties in attracting and retaining drivers and technicians.
Drivers. We hire drivers primarily for our SCS and DTS business segments. There is significant competition for qualified drivers in the transportation
industry. Additionally, interventions and enforcement under the CSA program may shrink the
18
industry’s pool of drivers as those drivers with unfavorable scores may no longer be eligible to drive for us. As a result of driver shortages, we could be required to
increase driver compensation, let trucks sit idle, utilize lower quality drivers or face difficulty meeting customer demands, all of which could adversely affect our
growth and profitability.
Technicians. Similarly, we hire technicians in our FMS business segment to perform vehicle maintenance services on our ChoiceLease, SelectCare and
rental fleets. In recent years, there has been a decrease in the overall supply of skilled maintenance technicians, particularly new technicians with qualifications
from technical programs and schools, which could make it more difficult to attract and retain skilled technicians. If we are unable to maintain an adequate number
of qualified technicians, whether through the retention of current technicians or the hiring of new qualified technicians, our business could be adversely affected.
Failure to successfully negotiate with our union employees may result in strikes, work stoppages, or substantially higher labor costs.
We have approximately 3,500 employees that are organized by labor unions whose wages and benefits are governed by 96 labor agreements that are
renegotiated periodically. Disputes with regard to the terms of these agreements or our potential inability to negotiate acceptable contracts with these unions in the
future could result in, among other things, a material work stoppage, slowdown or strike by the affected employees. If our workers were to engage in a work
stoppage, strike or other slowdown, or other employees were to become unionized, or the terms and conditions in future labor agreements were renegotiated, we
could experience a significant business disruptions or higher operating costs, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or
cash flows.
We intend to continue to explore strategic transactions. Our business could be adversely affected if we are not able to identify or successfully execute these
strategic transactions.
In furtherance of our strategy, we routinely evaluate opportunities and may enter into agreements for possible strategic transactions, including acquisitions,
partnerships or divestitures. We may be unable to identify strategic transactions or we may be unable to negotiate commercially acceptable terms. Other risks
involved in engaging in these strategic transactions include the possible failure to realize the expected benefits of such transactions within the anticipated time
frame, or at all, such as cost savings, synergies, sales and growth opportunities. In addition, the integration of an acquired business may result in material
unanticipated challenges, expenses and liabilities. Any one of these factors could result in lower than expected revenues or earnings related to combining the
companies or derived from a strategic transaction and could adversely impact our financial condition or results of operations.
Volatility in assumptions, discount rates, and asset values related to our pension plans may adversely affect the valuation of our obligations, the current
funding levels and our pension expense under our defined benefit pension plans.
We historically sponsored a number of defined benefit plans for employees not covered by union-administered plans, including certain employees in foreign
countries. The aggregate projected benefit obligations and plan assets of our global defined benefit pension plans as of December 31, 2020 were $2.5 billion and
$2.3 billion, respectively. The funded status of the plans, equal to the difference between the present value of plan obligations and assets, is a significant factor in
determining pension expense and the ongoing funding requirements of those plans. Macroeconomic factors, as well as changes in investment returns and discount
rates used to calculate pension expense and related assets and liabilities, can be volatile and may have an unfavorable impact on our costs and funding
requirements. Although we have actively sought to control increases in these costs and funding requirements through investment policies and plan contributions,
there can be no assurance that we will succeed, and continued cost and funding requirement pressure could reduce the profitability of our business and negatively
impact our cash flows.
19
We are subject to risk of multi-employer pension plan withdrawal.
We participate in certain U.S. multi-employer pension (MEP) plans that provide defined benefits to employees covered by collective bargaining agreements.
In the event that we withdraw from participation in any of these plans, then applicable law could require us to make an additional lump-sum contribution to the
plan. Our withdrawal liability for any MEP plan would depend on the extent of the plan’s funding of vested benefits. Economic conditions have caused many MEP
plans to be significantly underfunded. As a result, although we have taken steps in recent years to withdraw from significantly underfunded MEP plans, we may
still have liability for at least a period of time following our withdrawal. If the financial condition of the MEP plans were to continue to deteriorate, we could be
subject to additional assessments.
We may fail to establish sufficient insurance reserves to adequately cover workers’ compensation and vehicle liabilities.
We are partially self-insured for vehicle liability and workers’ compensation claims. Our self-insurance accruals are based on actuarially estimated,
undiscounted cost of claims, which includes claims incurred but not reported. While we believe that our estimation processes are well designed and comply with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, actuarial techniques and best practices, any projection of losses concerning workers’ compensation
and vehicle insurance is subject to a considerable degree of variability. The causes of this variability include litigation trends, claim settlement patterns, rising
medical and other costs as well as fluctuations in the frequency or severity of accidents. If actual losses incurred are greater than those anticipated, our self-
insurance reserves may be insufficient and additional costs could be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. If we suffer a substantial loss in excess of
our self-insured limits, the loss and related expenses may be covered by traditional insurance and excess insurance the Company has in place, but if not covered or
above such coverages, losses could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. For a detailed discussion on our accounting policies and
assumptions relating to our self-insurance reserves, please see the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Self-Insurance Accruals” section in Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We face litigation risks that could have a material adverse effect on the operation of our business.
We face litigation risks regarding a variety of issues, including without limitation, accidents involving our trucks and injuries to employees, alleged violations
of federal and state labor and employment law including class-action lawsuits alleging wage and hour violations, independent contractor misclassification and
improper pay, securities laws, environmental liability, commercial claims, cyber and other matters. These proceedings may be time-consuming, expensive and
disruptive to normal business operations. The defense of such lawsuits could result in significant expense and the diversion of our management’s time and attention
from the operation of our business. In recent years, several insurance companies have stopped offering coverage to trucking companies and reduced capacity limits
as a result of increases in the severity of automobile liability claims and higher costs of settlements and verdicts, causing the cost of such insurance to increase.
This trend could adversely affect our ability to obtain suitable insurance coverage or further increase the cost for such coverage significantly, each of which may
adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows. Costs we incur to defend or to satisfy a judgment or settlement of these
claims may not be covered by insurance or could exceed the amount of that coverage or increase our insurance costs and could have a material adverse effect on
our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.
We face risks related to cybersecurity attacks and other breaches of our systems and information technology.
We depend on the proper functioning and availability of our information systems in operating our business. It is important that the data processed by these
systems remains confidential, as it often includes sensitive customer information, confidential customer transaction data, employee records, and key financial and
operational results and statistics. Failure to prevent or mitigate data loss or system intrusions from cybersecurity attacks or other security breaches could expose us,
our vendors, or our customers to a risk of loss or misuse of such information, adversely affect our operating results, restrict or prevent operations or financial
reporting, result in litigation or potential liability and otherwise harm our business. Likewise, data privacy breaches from our systems could expose personally
identifiable information of our employees or contractors, sensitive customer data, or vendor data to unauthorized persons, adversely impacting our customer
service, employee relationships and our reputation. We maintain an information security program, which consists of industry standard safeguards and controls to
help ensure that our core fundamentals of confidentiality, integrity and availability are supported, but we cannot ensure that we will be able to prevent or mitigate
all such data breaches or cyberattacks.
In addition, some of our software applications are utilized by third parties who provide outsourced administrative functions. Such third parties may have
access to information we maintain about our company, customers, employees and
20
vendors or operate systems that are critical to our business operations and services. While our information security program includes enhanced controls to monitor
third party providers’ security programs, these third parties are subject to risks imposed by data breaches, cyberattacks and other events or actions that could
damage, disrupt or close down their networks or systems.
Our information systems are protected through physical and software safeguards as well as backup systems considered appropriate by management.
However, threats to network and data security are becoming increasingly diverse and sophisticated. Both unsuccessful and successful cybersecurity attacks on
companies have continued to increase in frequency, scope and potential harm in recent years, and cyber risks have increased due to the shift in remote work
environments necessitated by COVID-19. We have experienced cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities targeting our information technology systems and
networks and those of our third party providers. Such prior events, to date, have not had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. While
we have significant security processes and initiatives in place, we may be unable to fully detect, mitigate or protect against a material breach or disruption in the
future. In addition, efforts to prevent, detect and mitigate data breaches and cyberattacks subject us to additional costs. We have cyber insurance coverage in place
that we have previously used in connection with cyber events and that may cover certain events described above, subject to deductibles and coverage limitations. It
is possible that future claims could exceed the limits of our coverage. Further, such insurance may not address or cover injury to reputation or loss of business that
may result should such an attack be material.
In addition, regulatory authorities have increased their focus on how companies collect, process, use, store, share and transmit personal data. New privacy
security laws and regulations, including the United Kingdom’s Data Protection Act 2018, the European Union General Data Protection Regulation 2016, and the
California Consumer Privacy Act, pose increasingly complex and rigorous compliance challenges, which may increase our compliance costs. Any failure to
comply with data privacy laws and regulations could result in significant penalties, fines, legal challenges and reputational harm.
Regulatory Risks
We operate in a highly regulated industry, and changes in existing regulations or costs of compliance with, or liability for violation of, existing or future
laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business is subject to regulation by various federal, state, local and foreign governmental agencies. In the United States, we are regulated by the DOT as
well as local, state and federal agencies that exercise broad powers over our motor carrier operations, safety and the generation, handling, storage, treatment and
disposal of waste materials. The FMCSA, under the DOT, also manages a compliance and enforcement initiative partnering with state agencies designed to monitor
and improve commercial vehicle motor safety. We are also subject to other regulations relating to our business, employees and customers, including labor and
employment laws, international laws and regulations governing our foreign operations, environmental laws and regulations, among others.
Compliance with existing laws and regulations has involved, and we expect will continue to involve, significant time commitments and costs, and in recent
years, we have seen an increase in proactive regulatory enforcement. In addition, new laws, rules or regulations may be adopted or interpretative changes to
existing regulations could be issued at any time. Any new initiatives could further increase our costs or operating complexity and our ability to offer certain
services in the jurisdictions in which we operate.
Our failure to comply with any existing or future laws, rules or regulations to which we are, or may become subject, whether actual or alleged, could have a
material adverse effect on our business and on our ability to access the capital required to operate our business. Among other things, any such failure could expose
us to reputational harm, loss of business, fines, penalties or potential litigation liabilities, including costs, settlements and judgments, as well as the loss of operating
authority and restrictions on our operations. For example, the DOT periodically conducts compliance reviews to ensure compliance with its safety and other rules
and regulations, and evaluates the safety rating assessed to motor carriers (“satisfactory,” “conditional” or “unsatisfactory”). The receipt of a final “conditional” or
“unsatisfactory” safety rating due to deficiencies in our safety and compliance program could have a material adverse effect on our customer relationships, as some
of our existing customer contracts require a “satisfactory” DOT safety rating. Moreover, if we fail to comply with DOT regulations, including our failure to
maintain a “satisfactory” DOT safety rating, the DOT could levy fines and require us to cease all transportation services under our operating authority, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business.
In addition, the FMCSA’s enforcement and compliance programs, designed to monitor and improve commercial motor vehicle safety by measuring the safety
record of both the motor carrier and the driver, may shrink the industry’s pool of drivers. This and the shortage of qualified drivers could increase the costs to
attract, train and retain qualified drivers as well as increase driver turnover, decrease asset utilization, limit growth, and adversely impact our results of operations.
21
Other compliance issues we may face include:
•
•
•
•
•
companies we acquire may not have historically maintained internal controls, policies or procedures to monitor compliance with the regulatory and legal
requirements consistent with our standards;
our operations in Canada, Europe and Mexico may expose us to liability for failure to comply with local laws and regulatory requirements of foreign
jurisdictions, which may vary significantly from country to country, including local tax laws, and anti-bribery laws;
compliance with environmental laws and regulations, including regulations imposed by the EPA on exhaust emissions and increasingly stringent
regulations related to climate change, which may impose restrictions on our activities or require us to take certain actions, all of which may, over time,
increase our costs and adversely affect our business and results of operations;
compliance with health and safety laws and regulations imposed by OSHA as well as state and local governments; and
compliance with new laws or regulations that may change the employee/independent contractor classification of independent contractors doing business
with us, which could cause us to incur additional exposure under federal and state tax and employment laws.
In addition, we are also subject to reputational risk and other detrimental business consequences associated with noncompliance by other parties with whom
we engage with, such as employees, customers, agents, suppliers or other persons using our supply chain or assets to commit illegal acts, including the use of
company assets for terrorist activities, or a breach of data privacy laws.
Our failure to comply with U.S. or foreign tax laws or a government challenging our tax position could adversely affect our business and future operating
results.
We are affected by various U.S. federal, state and foreign tax laws, including income taxes and taxes imposed on the purchase, sale and lease of goods and
services such as sales, excise, property, value-added tax, fuel, environmental and other taxes. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions
and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. For example, significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for
income taxes. Our tax expense includes estimates of additional tax that may be incurred for tax exposures and reflects various estimates and assumptions, including
assessments that could affect the valuation of our net deferred tax assets. Our operating results could be adversely affected by changes in the effective tax rate as a
result of a change in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in our overall profitability, changes in tax legislation, the results of
audits and examinations of previously filed tax returns and continuing assessments of our income and indirect tax exposures.
In addition, from time to time we are under audit by tax authorities in different jurisdictions with regards to income tax and indirect tax matters. Economic
and political pressures to increase tax revenue in various jurisdictions may make resolving tax disputes favorably more difficult. Although we believe our tax
estimates are reasonable, the final determination of tax audits and any other related tax proceedings in the jurisdictions where we are subject to taxation could be
materially different from our historical income and indirect tax provisions and accruals.
Finally, changes in U.S. federal, state or international tax laws applicable to corporate multinationals, other tax reform currently being considered by many
countries, including the U.S., and changes and clarifications in taxing jurisdictions’ administrative interpretations, decisions, policies and positions may materially
adversely impact our tax expense and cash flows. The U.S. Congress, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, the European Union, and
other government agencies in jurisdictions in which we and our affiliates invest or do business have maintained a focus on the taxation of multinational companies
and have a number of on-going tax initiatives. If we are unable to successfully take actions to manage the adverse impacts of new tax legislation, or if additional
interpretations, regulations, amendments or technical corrections exacerbate the adverse impacts of such legislation, the legislation could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
General Risk Factors
Our business may be affected by uncertainty or changes in U.S. or global social, political or regulatory conditions.
Adverse developments in laws, policies or practices in the U.S. and internationally can negatively impact our business and the business of our customers.
Negative domestic and international global trade conditions as a result of social, political or regulatory changes or perceptions could materially affect our business,
financial conditions and results of operations.
22
We provide services domestically and to a lesser extent outside of the U.S., which subjects our business to various additional risks, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
changes in tariffs, trade restrictions, trade agreements, and taxes;
varying tax regimes, including consequences from changes in applicable tax laws;
difficulties in managing or overseeing foreign operations and agents;
foreign currency fluctuations and limitations on the repatriation of funds due to foreign currency controls;
different liability standards;
the price and availability of fuel;
national and international conflict; and
intellectual property laws of countries that do not protect our rights in intellectual property to the same extent as the laws of the U.S.
If we do not correctly anticipate changes in social, political or regulatory conditions or their impact on the transportation industry, we may not alter our
business practices in time to avoid adverse effects. Additionally, the occurrence or consequences of any of these factors may restrict our ability to operate in the
affected region and/or decrease the profitability of our operations in that region.
Our suppliers may also be affected by changes in the political and regulatory environment, both in the U.S. and internationally. Negative impacts on our
suppliers could result in disruptions in the supply and availability of equipment or services needed for our business that could in turn affect our ability to operate
and serve our customers as planned.
The market value of our common stock may fluctuate and could be substantially affected by various factors.
We expect that the market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These
factors include, among others:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
actual or anticipated variations in earnings, financial or reporting performance or liquidity;
changes in analysts' recommendations or projections;
failure to meet analysts' and our Company's projections;
general political, social, economic and capital market conditions;
announcements of developments or initiatives related to our business;
operating and stock performance of other companies deemed to be peers;
actions by government regulators; and
news reports of trends, concerns and other issues related to us or our industry, including changes in regulations.
Our common stock price may fluctuate significantly in the future, and these fluctuations may be unrelated to our performance. General market price declines
or market volatility in the future could adversely affect the price of our common stock, and the current market price of our common stock may not be indicative of
future market prices.
We may be negatively impacted by adverse events in the global credit and financial markets, by an investment rating downgrade or by the loss of an
investment grade rating.
Our FMS business is highly capital intensive and its profitability could be adversely affected if we are unable to obtain sufficient capital to fund its
operations. In general, we rely in large part upon global credit and financial markets to fund our operations and contractual commitments as well as to refinance
existing debt. These markets can experience high levels of volatility for numerous reasons and our access to capital could be constrained for extended periods of
time. Our ability to raise capital may be materially reduced and/or our borrowing costs may significantly increase if, among other things, access to public
investment grade debt becomes limited or closed, we lose access to our global revolving credit facility, or funding costs increase due to the loss of an investment
grade rating, a severe economic downturn or rising interest rates. Significant uncertainty, volatility, disruptions or downturns in the global credit and financial
markets may also result in:
•
•
•
•
diminished liquidity and credit availability resulting in more stringent borrowing terms;
decline in the price of our common shares as a result of a downgrade by security analysts;
unanticipated interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; and
increased risk of default by counterparties under derivative instruments and hedging agreements.
23
As of December 31, 2020, we had $6.6 billion of outstanding indebtedness. If we are unable to raise additional capital by accessing the debt and equity
markets or our costs of raising additional capital were to materially increase, our ability to operate or grow our business, including refreshing, replacing and/or
growing our vehicle fleets and acquiring new businesses, and refinance existing debt will be impaired, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating
results or materially impact our ability to implement our long-term strategy.
Severe weather or other natural occurrences could result in significant business interruptions and expenditures in excess of available insurance coverage.
Our operations may be affected by external factors such as severe weather and other natural occurrences, including floods, fires, hurricanes and earthquakes
at operating locations where we have vehicles, warehouses and other facilities. As a result, our vehicles and facilities may be damaged, our workforce may be
unavailable, fuel costs may rise and significant business interruptions could occur. In addition, the performance of our vehicles could be adversely affected by
extreme weather conditions. Insurance to protect against loss of business and other related consequences resulting from these natural occurrences is subject to
coverage limitations, depending on the nature of the risk insured. This insurance may not be sufficient to cover all of our damages or damages to others and this
insurance may not continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates. Even with insurance, if any natural occurrence leads to a catastrophic interruption of
service, we may not be able to mitigate a significant interruption in operations.
Damage to our reputation through unfavorable publicity or the actions of our employees could adversely affect our financial condition.
Our success depends on our ability to consistently deliver operational excellence and strong customer service. Our inability to deliver our services and
solutions as promised on a consistent basis, or our customers having a negative experience or otherwise becoming dissatisfied, can negatively impact our
relationships with new or existing customers and adversely affect our brand and reputation, which could, in turn, adversely affect revenue and earnings growth.
Adverse publicity (whether or not justified) relating to activities by our employees, contractors, agents or others with whom we do business, such as customer
service mishaps or noncompliance with laws, could tarnish our reputation and reduce the value of our brand. With the increase in the use of social media outlets
such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Twitter, adverse publicity can be disseminated quickly and broadly, making it increasingly difficult for us to
effectively respond. This unfavorable publicity could also require us to allocate significant resources to rebuild our reputation.
Future acts of terrorism, war or regulatory changes to combat the risk of terrorism may cause significant disruptions in our operations.
Terrorist attacks, along with any government response to those attacks, may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Our
fleet, other key infrastructure and information technology systems may be targets or indirect casualties of acts of terror, other harmful acts, or war. Further, because
transportation assets continue to be a target of terrorist activities, federal, state and local governmental bodies are proposing and, in some cases, have adopted
legislation and regulations relating to security issues that impact the transportation industry, including checkpoints and travel restrictions on large trucks. If
additional security measures disrupt or impede the timing of our operations, we may fail to meet the requirements of our customers or incur increased expenses to
do so. In addition, complying with these or future regulations could continue to increase our operating costs and reduce operating efficiencies. We maintain
insurance coverages addressing these risks and we have received U.S. Patriot Act protections for our security practices related to the rental of our assets. However,
such insurance may be inadequate or become unavailable, premiums charged for some or all of the insurance could increase dramatically, regulations may change
or U.S. Patriot Act protections could be reduced. These changes could exacerbate the effects of an act of terrorism on our business, resulting in a significant
business interruption, increased costs and liabilities and decreased revenues or an adverse impact on results of operations.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our properties consist primarily of vehicle maintenance and repair facilities, warehouses and other real estate and improvements.
We maintain 612 FMS properties in the U.S., Puerto Rico and Canada; we own 417 of these and lease the remaining properties. Our FMS properties are
primarily comprised of maintenance facilities generally including a repair shop, rental counter, fuel service island, administrative offices, and used vehicle retail
sales centers.
Additionally, we manage 180 on-site maintenance facilities, located at customer locations.
We also maintain 269 locations in the U.S. and Canada in connection with our domestic SCS business. Almost all of our SCS locations are leased and
generally include a warehouse and administrative offices.
We maintain 84 international locations (locations outside of the U.S. and Canada) for our international businesses. There are 46 locations in the U.K. and
Germany, and 38 locations in Mexico. The majority of these locations are leased and may be a repair shop, warehouse or administrative office.
Additionally, we maintain 13 U.S. locations primarily used for Central Support Services. These facilities are generally administrative offices, of which we
own five and lease the remaining locations.
We are involved in various claims, lawsuits and administrative actions arising in the normal course of our businesses. Some involve claims for substantial
amounts of money and/or claims for punitive damages. While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, management believes that the disposition
of such matters, in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or liquidity. Refer to Note 21, "Contingencies and Other

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following MD&A describes the principal factors
affecting results of operations, financial resources, liquidity, contractual cash obligations and critical accounting estimates. This section of the Form 10-K generally
discusses 2020 and 2019 items and year-to-year comparisons between 2020 and 2019. Discussions of 2018 items and year-to-year comparisons between 2019 and
2018 that are not included in this Form 10-K can be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II,
Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
OVERVIEW
Ryder is a leading logistics and transportation company. Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based upon similar
economic characteristics, products, services, customers and delivery methods. We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) Fleet
Management Solutions (FMS), which provides full service leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental, and maintenance services of
trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the United States (U.S.), Canada and the United Kingdom (U.K.); (2) Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which
provides integrated logistics solutions, including distribution management, dedicated transportation, transportation management, last mile and professional services
in North America; and (3) Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS), which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles,
drivers, management and administrative support. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an operationally integrated, multi-service, supply chain
solution to SCS customers are primarily reported in the SCS business segment.
The FMS business, our largest segment, had total revenue and assets in 2020 of $5.2 billion and $11.3 billion, respectively, representing 55% of our
consolidated revenue (excluding eliminations) and 87% of consolidated assets. SCS total revenue and assets in 2020 were $2.5 billion and $1.3 billion,
respectively, representing 30% of our consolidated revenue and 10% of consolidated assets. DTS total revenue and assets in 2020 were $1.2 billion and $0.3
billion, respectively, representing 15% of our consolidated revenue and 2% of consolidated assets. In 2020, we have revised our definition of operating revenue to
exclude revenue related to liability insurance coverage for ChoiceLease customers as we announced our plan to exit this product line in early 2020. Prior year
amounts have been revised to conform to current year presentation.
We operate in highly competitive markets. Our customers select us based on numerous factors including service quality, price, technology and service
offerings. As an alternative to using our services, customers may choose to provide these services for themselves or may choose to obtain similar services from
other third-party vendors. Our customer base includes enterprises operating in a variety of industries including food and beverage service (22%), transportation and
logistics (21%), retail and consumer goods (11%), automotive (10%), industrial (8%), housing (7%), technology (6%), business and personal services (5%) and
other (10%).
Our results of operations and financial condition are influenced by a number of factors including, but not limited to: used vehicle sales; macroeconomic and
other market conditions, including pricing and demand; customer contracting activity and retention; rental demand; maintenance costs; residual value estimates and
other depreciation changes; currency exchange rate fluctuations; customer preferences; inflation; fuel and energy prices; general economic conditions; insurance
costs; interest rates; labor costs; unemployment; tax rates; changes in accounting or regulatory requirements; and cybersecurity attacks. This MD&A includes
certain forward-looking statements regarding our 2021 outlook. These statements are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to risks,
uncertainties and assumptions. We caution readers that certain important factors could cause actual results and events to differ significantly from those expressed.
Additionally, in 2020, our business has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. For a detailed discussion of its
impact on our results of operations, financial condition and future considerations, refer to our "Consolidated Results" and "Operating Results by Business Segment"
discussions below and Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, for a detailed
description of certain risk factors that impact our business, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to “Item 1A-Risk Factors” and "Special Note
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" sections included in this Annual Report.
This MD&A includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this MD&A for information on
these non-GAAP measures, including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measure and the reasons why we believe each measure is useful to
investors.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
EBT and comparable EBT decreased primarily due to higher depreciation expense of $75 million related to prior residual value estimate changes. EBT and
comparable EBT in 2020 also included negative estimated impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic of approximately $70 million in the first half of 2020, which was
net of temporary cost savings of approximately $35 million, offset by improved ChoiceLease results in FMS and operating performance in SCS.
The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted several areas of our businesses. In our FMS business segment, we experienced lower demand for
commercial rental and declines in the used vehicle market through the second quarter (refer to Note 5, "Revenue Earning Equipment, net," in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on residual value estimate changes in the first half of 2020 and trends related to used vehicle sales).
During the second half of 2020, we started to experience a steady recovery in these areas as compared to the second quarter. In our SCS business segment, we
experienced a deterioration in customer activity during the first half of 2020, primarily due to the temporary shutdowns in the automotive industry, which restarted
their operations during the second quarter and are generally operating at normal levels. In addition, we experienced a slowdown in our sales growth opportunities in
all of our businesses primarily through the third quarter. We established additional credit loss reserves during the year due to our expectations for COVID-19-
related payment activity as a result of increased bankruptcies or insolvencies, or a delay in payments. We have attempted to mitigate the adverse impacts from the
pandemic through cost reduction measures, including lower discretionary and overhead spending, and a reduction in capital expenditures, as well as temporary
employee furloughs which primarily occurred in the second quarter. In addition, we took actions to reduce headcount at the end of the second quarter, primarily in
our North American and U.K. FMS operations.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The
CARES Act, among other things, provides for an acceleration of alternative minimum tax credit refunds, the deferral of certain employer payroll taxes, the
availability of an employee retention credit, and expands the availability of net operating loss usage. In addition, other governments in state, local and foreign
jurisdictions in which we operate have also enacted certain relief measures. We continue to monitor new and updated legislation, however the provisions enacted
have not had a material impact on our financial statements or liquidity position.
While we are experiencing positive momentum in the second half of 2020, any further negative effects of the pandemic may have an impact on our business
and financial results, as well as on significant judgments and estimates, including those related to goodwill and other asset impairments, residual values and other
depreciation assumptions, deferred income taxes and annual effective tax rates, variable revenue considerations, the valuation of our pension plans, and allowance
for credit losses.
Cash provided by operating activities increased reflecting slightly lower working capital needs in 2020. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure)
increased primarily due to lower capital expenditures. Total capital expenditures decreased in 2020 reflecting lower investments in the ChoiceLease and rental
fleets as a result of reduced sales activity and rental demand.
As of December 31, 2020, our debt balance decreased 17% from the prior year to $6.6 billion reflecting a decrease in capital spending, as well as the early
redemption of two medium-term notes.
Adjusted return on equity (ROE) was (1.3)% and 0.3% in 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our interim target is 11% and long-term target over the cycle is 15%.
The diminishing impact from the 2019 and 2020 residual value estimate changes and rental recovery are expected to contribute substantially to improving ROE in
addition to other return improvement initiatives.

Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues represent ChoiceLease and commercial rental product offerings within our FMS business segment.
Revenues decreased 2% in 2020 primarily due to lower commercial rental revenue, partially offset by higher ChoiceLease revenue. The decline in commercial
rental revenue was due to reduced demand, including impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. ChoiceLease revenue in 2020 benefited from higher pricing as well
as average active fleet growth.
Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental represents the direct costs related to lease & related maintenance and rental revenues and are comprised of
depreciation of revenue earning equipment, maintenance costs (primarily repair parts and labor), and other costs such as licenses, insurance and operating taxes.
Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental excludes interest costs from vehicle financing, which are reported within "Interest expense" in our Consolidated
Statements of Earnings. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental remained flat in 2020 due to higher depreciation expense from residual value estimate
changes in the first half of 2020 and 2019, offset by lower maintenance and other costs due to less activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as our
maintenance cost savings initiatives. Refer to "Critical Accounting Estimates" below and Note 5, "Revenue Earning Equipment, net" in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for additional information on the residual value estimate changes in 2020, which primarily impacted our FMS business segment.
Lease & related maintenance and rental gross margin decreased 13% and gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased to 16% in 2020. The decrease
was primarily due to higher depreciation as a result of our prior residual value estimate changes and lower commercial rental revenue and utilization.

Services revenue represents all the revenues associated with our SCS and DTS business segments, as well as SelectCare and fleet support services associated
with our FMS business segment. Services revenue decreased 5% in 2020, primarily driven by temporary production shutdowns due to COVID-19 in our
automotive vertical in SCS in the second quarter, lower subcontracted transportation revenues and lower sales in DTS. These decreases were partially offset by new
business and higher pricing in SCS.
Cost of services represents the direct costs related to services revenue and is primarily comprised of salaries and employee-related costs, subcontracted
transportation (purchased transportation from third parties), fuel, vehicle liability costs and maintenance costs. Cost of services decreased 6% in 2020, primarily
due to lower activity related to COVID-19 in SCS and DTS and lower sales in DTS, as well as lower favorable insurance claim developments in 2020.
Services gross margin decreased 2% in 2020. Services gross margin as a percentage of revenue remained consistent with 2019.

Fuel services revenue represents fuel services provided to our FMS customers. Fuel services revenue decreased 32% in 2020 primarily reflecting lower fuel
costs passed through to customers and lower gallons sold as a result of COVID-19.
Cost of fuel services includes the direct costs associated with providing our customers with fuel. These costs include fuel, salaries and employee-related costs
of fuel island attendants and depreciation of our fueling facilities and equipment. Cost of fuel services decreased 33% in 2020 as a result of lower fuel costs and
lower gallons sold.
Fuel services gross margin increased 12% in 2020. Fuel services gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased to 4% in 2020. Fuel is largely a pass-
through to customers for which we realize minimal changes in margin during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, fuel services margin is impacted by
sudden increases or decreases in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel is established based on trailing market fuel costs. Fuel
services gross margin was impacted by these price change dynamics, including the impacts of COVID-19, as fuel prices fluctuated during the period.

SG&A expenses increased 2% in 2020. The increase in 2020 was primarily driven by higher compensation related expenses, including a one-time, special
recognition and retention bonus of approximately $28 million for our front-line non-incentive compensation plan eligible employees in recognition of the work
performed during the pandemic, and higher bad debt expense, partially offset by cost savings related to temporary employee furloughs that occurred primarily in
the second quarter and lower travel expenses. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue remained relatively flat at 11% in 2020.

Non-operating pension costs includes the components of our net periodic benefit cost other than service cost. These components include interest cost,
expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial loss and prior service cost, as well as settlement or curtailment charges. Non-operating pension costs
decreased by $49 million in 2020 due to a pension settlement charge of $32 million related to employee benefit settlements from the U.S. pension plan recorded in
2019, favorable asset returns in 2019 and a decrease in interest rates. This decrease was offset by a curtailment loss of $9 million recognized in the second half of
2020 as a result of a freeze of substantially all of the remaining active participants in our pension plans.

Used vehicle sales, net includes gains and losses from sales of used vehicles, selling costs associated with used vehicles and write-downs of vehicles held for
sale to fair market value (referred to as "valuation adjustments"). Losses on used vehicle sales, net decreased in 2020 primarily due to lower valuation adjustments
and higher gains on sales of used vehicles as compared to the prior year.
Average proceeds per unit in 2020 for tractors decreased from the prior year reflecting higher sales volumes in the wholesale markets, which generally has

Interest expense increased 8% to $261 million in 2020 primarily reflecting higher average outstanding debt, including a higher portion of fixed rate debt, and
prepayment penalties of $9 million related to two medium-term notes originally maturing in 2021. The increase in average outstanding debt reflects higher vehicle
capital spending in 2019 and additional borrowings under our trade receivable program and global revolving credit facility in the first half of 2020.

(1) Non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this MD&A for a reconciliation of total revenue to operating revenue and segment total revenue
to segment operating revenue for FMS, SCS and DTS, as well as the reasons why management believes these measures are important to investors.
(2) Refer to Note 20, "Other Items Impacting Comparability," and below for a discussion of items excluded from our primary measure of segment performance.
As part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance, we define the primary measurement of our segment financial performance as
"Earnings from continuing operations before taxes" (EBT), which includes an allocation of costs from Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes non-operating
pension costs and certain other items as discussed in Note 20, “Other Items Impacting Comparability,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. CSS
represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including finance and procurement, corporate services, human resources, information technology,
public affairs, legal, marketing and corporate communications. To be consistent with current year management presentation, certain costs within CSS were
reclassified in 2019 and 2018.
The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business
segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had
each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Certain costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in
CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation. Refer to Note 23, “Segment Reporting,” in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for a description of the methodology for allocating the remainder of CSS costs to the business segments.

(1) Non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of FMS total revenue to FMS operating revenue, as well as the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors, is
included in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.
FMS total revenue decreased 7% to $5.2 billion in 2020 primarily due to lower fuel services and commercial rental revenues, partially offset by higher
ChoiceLease revenue. FMS operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and ChoiceLease liability insurance revenues) decreased 3% to $4.6 billion in
2020 primarily from a decline in commercial rental as demand was impacted from COVID-19, particularly in the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by higher
pricing in ChoiceLease. ChoiceLease revenue increased 3% in 2020 primarily due to higher prices on vehicles partially offset by lower revenue based on mileage.
ChoiceLease revenue also increased due to a higher average active fleet size. SelectCare revenue decreased 5% in 2020 due to lower volumes. Commercial rental
revenue decreased 17% in 2020 primarily due to lower demand (see further discussion below). Commercial rental revenue included an estimated negative impact in
the first half of 2020 from COVID-19 of approximately $70 million. Fuel services revenue decreased 30% in 2020 primarily reflecting lower fuel costs passed
through to customers and lower gallons sold.

(4) Excluding trailers.
FMS EBT decreased in 2020 primarily due to higher depreciation expense impacts from prior residual value estimate changes, which resulted in a negative
year-over-year EBT impact of $75 million. In the first half of 2020, we performed a review of the estimated residual values of our FMS revenue earning equipment
for both accelerated and policy depreciation primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on current and expected used vehicle market conditions,
including our expectation on a delayed recovery in the used vehicle market beyond our previous expectation of mid-2021. We expect the negative impact from the
prior residual value estimate changes to continue to decline going forward. Refer to "Critical Accounting Estimates" below and Note 5, "Revenue Earning
Equipment, net" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
EBT in 2020 was also negatively impacted by lower rental demand, including an estimated impact of approximately $70 million attributed to COVID-19 in
the first half of 2020. Rental power fleet utilization decreased to 67.4% in 2020 from 75.0% in 2019, on a 13% smaller average rental power fleet, as noted in the
table above. Since the end of the first quarter, commercial rental demand has been negatively impacted by COVID-19 as demand for commercial rental vehicles
was significantly impacted in the second quarter due to a substantial reduction in business activity. We took actions to reduce the rental fleet size, and redeploy
rental vehicles to fulfill new lease contracts and support the SCS and DTS segments. Utilization has increased throughout the second half of the year due to
improving economic conditions and these actions taken to reduce and redeploy the rental fleet size. These negative impacts were partially offset by improved lease
results in 2020 primarily due to higher prices on vehicles and the benefit from the discontinuation of the ChoiceLease liability insurance program. The results of the
ChoiceLease liability insurance program are no longer reflected in the FMS results and are now reported in "Other Items Impacting Comparability" starting in
2020. Results also reflect lower maintenance costs, including benefits from our cost-savings initiatives. In addition, we also benefited from COVID-19 related cost
actions, including lower travel expenses, reduced headcount and temporary employee furloughs.

NYE units represent new vehicles on hand that are being prepared for deployment to a lease customer or into the rental fleet. Preparations include activities
such as adding lift gates, paint, decals, cargo area and refrigeration equipment. The number of NYE units decreased 46% in 2020 reflecting lower lease sales.
NLE units represent all vehicles held for sale and vehicles for which no revenue has been earned in the previous 30 days. Accordingly, these vehicles may be
temporarily out of service, being prepared for sale or awaiting redeployment. For 2020, the number of NLE units decreased 39% reflecting a lower number of units
held for sale as well as lower number of units being prepared for sale or redeployment.

(1) Non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of SCS total revenue to SCS operating revenue, as well as the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors is
included in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.
SCS total revenue remained flat and SCS operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation revenues) decreased 1%
in 2020 primarily due to lower activity in our automotive vertical as a result of production shutdowns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by new
business in several verticals, increased pricing and higher volumes. Revenue in 2020 included estimated negative COVID-19 related impacts of approximately $70
million in the first half of 2020, primarily due to shutdowns in our automotive vertical. In the second quarter, our automotive customers resumed production and
are generally at normal operating levels. We expect revenue growth in line with high single digits range.
SCS EBT increased 10% in 2020 due to higher pricing, improved operating performance and new business, partially offset by estimated impacts of COVID-
19 of approximately $35 million in the first half of 2020, particularly due to the temporary shutdowns in our automotive vertical. In addition, EBT was impacted by
lower favorable insurance claim developments and a decrease in equipment contribution of $5 million in 2020 (see further discussions on equipment contribution
above).

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased to $2.2 billion in 2020 compared with $2.1 billion in 2019 reflecting slightly
lower working capital needs in 2020. Our changes in operating assets and liabilities reflect the timing of collections of our receivables and payments of our trade
payables, as well as other changes in operating assets and liabilities. The unfavorable impact in receivables was primarily due to lower revenues as a result of
COVID-19 partially offset by the extension of credit terms for certain customers. The favorable impact from trade payables was primarily due to lower spend. In
addition, the favorable impact from changes in other assets and liabilities was driven by the deferral of certain payroll taxes as a result of the CARES Act, lower
compensation-related payments and a decrease in inventories in 2020. Cash used in investing activities decreased to $0.6 billion in 2020 compared with $3.2 billion
in 2019 primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures as a result of lower ChoiceLease sales and rental activity. Cash provided by (used in) financing activities
decreased to a use of ($1.5) billion in 2020 compared with proceeds of $1.1 billion in 2019 due to increased debt repayments and lower debt borrowings.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
Free cash flow increased to $1.6 billion in 2020 from negative $1.1 billion in 2019 primarily due to lower capital expenditures.
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations will remain consistent at approximately $2.2 billion in 2021. We expect free cash flow to
decrease to approximately $400 - $700 million reflecting higher capital spending related to the use of new equipment to fulfill lease contracts and the replacement
and growth of the rental fleet.
Purchase Obligations
The majority of our purchase obligations are pay-as-you-go transactions made in the ordinary course of business. Purchase obligations include agreements to
purchase goods or services that are legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed minimum or
variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Any amounts for which we are liable under purchase orders for goods received are
reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Accounts payable” and “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.” In addition, we reflect obligations with
settlements that are greater than twelve months from December 31, 2020 as "Other non-current liabilities", including operating lease liabilities. The most
significant purchase obligations relate to the purchase of revenue earning equipment, which can generally be cancelled 60 days prior to when the vehicle starts
being built by the original equipment manufacturer. See further discussion below on our capital expenditures. We believe that our operating cash flows and access
to the debt markets, as further discussed in Financing and Other Funding Transactions below, are sufficient to all us to meet our contractual obligations.
Capital expenditures generally represent the purchase of revenue earning equipment (trucks, tractors and trailers) within our FMS segment. These
expenditures primarily support the ChoiceLease and commercial rental product lines. The level of capital required to support the ChoiceLease product line varies
based on customer contract signings for replacement vehicles and growth. These contracts are long-term agreements that result in predictable cash flows typically
over three to seven years for trucks and tractors and ten years for trailers. We utilize capital for the purchase of vehicles in our commercial rental product line to
replenish and expand the fleet available for shorter-term use by contractual or occasional customers. Operating property and equipment expenditures primarily
relate to spending on items such as vehicle maintenance facilities and equipment, computer and telecommunications equipment, investments in technologies, and
warehouse facilities and equipment.

existing finance leases and other additions.
Total capital expenditures decreased to $1.1 billion in 2020 reflecting lower investments in the ChoiceLease and rental fleets as a result of reduced sales
activity and rental demand. In relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, we cancelled or postponed vehicle orders in the second quarter where possible, which has
significantly reduced capital expenditures during 2020. Later in the year, we began to reinstate some of the postponed vehicle orders, however we expect these
vehicles to be delivered in 2021. We expect capital expenditures to increase to approximately $2.0 to $2.3 billion in 2021 primarily due to the use of new
equipment to fulfill lease contracts and the replacement and growth of the rental fleet.

Financing and Other Funding Transactions
We utilize external capital primarily to support working capital needs and growth in our asset-based product lines. The variety of financing alternatives
typically available to fund our capital needs include commercial paper, long-term and medium-term public and private debt, asset-backed securities, bank term
loans, leasing arrangements, and bank credit facilities. Our principal sources of financing are issuances of unsecured commercial paper and medium-term notes.
Cash and equivalents totaled $151 million as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, approximately $62 million was held outside the U.S. and is
available to fund operations and other growth of non-U.S. subsidiaries. If we decide to repatriate cash and equivalents held outside the U.S., we may be subject to
additional income and withholding taxes. However, our intent is to permanently reinvest these foreign amounts outside the U.S. and our current plans do not
demonstrate a need to repatriate these foreign amounts to fund our U.S. operations.
We believe that our operating cash flows, together with our access to the public unsecured bond market, commercial paper market and other available debt
financing, will be adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that unanticipated
volatility and disruption in the public unsecured bond market or the commercial paper market would not impair our ability to access these markets on terms
commercially acceptable to us or at all. If we cease to have access to public bonds, commercial paper and other sources of unsecured borrowings, we would meet
our liquidity needs by drawing upon contractually committed lending agreements and/or by seeking other funding sources. In the second quarter of 2020, we
amended our net worth covenant in our revolving credit facility and other debt instruments to enable more flexibility under the covenant. In the fourth quarter of
2020, we amended our revolving credit facility to address various administrative matters. Refer to Note 12, “Debt,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for information on our net worth covenant amendment and further discussion around the global revolving credit facility, the trade receivables program,
issuance of medium-term notes under our shelf registration statement, asset-backed financing obligations and debt maturities.
Our ability to access unsecured debt in the capital markets is impacted by both our short-term and long-term debt ratings. These ratings are intended to
provide guidance to fixed income investors in determining the credit risk associated with particular Ryder securities based on current information obtained by the
rating agencies from us or from other sources. Lower ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, as well as reduced access to unsecured capital markets. A
significant downgrade of our short-term debt ratings would impair our ability to issue commercial paper and likely require us to rely on alternative funding sources.
A significant downgrade would not affect our ability to borrow amounts under our revolving credit facility described below, assuming ongoing compliance with the
terms and conditions of the credit facility.
Our debt ratings and rating outlooks as of December 31, 2020 were as follows:

In accordance with our funding philosophy, we attempt to align the aggregate average remaining re-pricing life of our debt with the aggregate average
remaining re-pricing life of our vehicle assets. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to achieve this alignment and generally target a mix of 20% - 40%
variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt outstanding. The variable-rate portion of our total debt (including notional value of swap agreements) was 9% and
17% at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in variable-rate debt is largely due to the reduction of short-term variable rate debt.
Our debt to equity ratios were 293% and 320% as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The debt to equity ratio represents total debt divided by total
equity. The decrease in debt-to-equity from year-end 2019 primarily reflects the reduction in debt due to higher free cash flow.

Guarantees. Refer to Note 13, “Guarantees,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our agreements involving guarantees.
Pension Information
Refer to Note 18, “Employee Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for background and further information regarding our
company-sponsored defined benefit retirement plans. During 2020, total global pension contributions were $136 million, which included $98 million of prefunding
contributions for our U.S. pension plan for 2021 through 2023, compared with $72 million in 2019. We estimate 2021 required pension contributions will be $7
million related to our foreign pension plans. The present value of estimated global pension contributions that would be required over the next 5 years totals
approximately $33 million (pre-tax). Changes in interest rates and the market value of the securities held by the plans could materially change, positively or
negatively, the funded status of the plans and affect the level of pension expense and required contributions in future years. The ultimate amount of contributions is
also dependent upon the requirements of applicable laws and regulations.
Due to the underfunded status of our defined benefit plans, we had an accumulated net pension equity charge (after-tax) of $655 million and $667 million as
of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The improvement in funded status reflects the benefit of asset returns of 13% in 2020 and higher level of pension
contributions, partially offset by a decrease in discount rates.
We also participate in certain U.S. multi-employer pension (MEP) plans that provide defined benefits to employees covered by collective bargaining
agreements. Our MEP plan contributions in 2020 was $11 million.
We expect 2021 pension expense to decrease to approximately $12 million since the remaining active participants were frozen as of December 31, 2020 and
the non-recurring curtailment charges recorded in 2020. See the “Critical Accounting Estimates — Pension Plans” section for further discussion on pension
accounting estimates.
Share Repurchase Programs and Cash Dividends
Refer to Note 14, “Share Repurchase Programs,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion on our share repurchase programs.
Cash dividend payments to shareholders of common stock were $119 million in 2020 and $116 million in 2019. In 2020 and 2019, our annualized dividend
was $2.24 and $2.20 per share of common stock, respectively.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
Market Risk
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and fuel prices. We manage these
exposures in several ways, including, in certain circumstances, the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments when deemed prudent. We do not enter into
leveraged derivative financial transactions or use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates exists for our debt obligations. Our interest rate risk management program objectives are to limit the
impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. We manage our exposure to interest rate risk primarily through the
proportion of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt we hold in the total debt portfolio. From time to time, we also use interest rate swap agreements to manage our
fixed-rate and variable-rate exposure and to better match the repricing of debt instruments to that of our portfolio of assets. The fair value of derivatives was not
material as of December 31, 2020.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $5.3 billion of fixed-rate debt outstanding (excluding finance leases and U.S. asset- backed securities) with a weighted-
average interest rate of 3.43% and a fair value of $5.7 billion. A hypothetical 10% change in market interest rates would impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt
by approximately $15 million as of December 31, 2020. Changes in the relative sensitivity of the fair value of our financial instrument portfolio for these
theoretical changes in the level of interest rates are primarily driven by changes in our debt maturities, interest rate profile and amount.
As of December 31, 2020, we had $616 million of variable-rate debt, including $150 million of fixed-rate debt instruments swapped to LIBOR-based
floating-rate debt. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps were offset by changes in the fair value of the debt instruments and no net gain or loss was
recognized in earnings. The fair value of our variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2020 was $621 million. A hypothetical 10% increase in market interest rates
would not have impacted 2020 pre-tax earnings by a material amount.
We are also subject to interest rate risk with respect to our pension and postretirement benefit obligations, as changes in interest rates will effectively increase
or decrease our liabilities associated with these benefit plans, which also results in changes to the amount of pension and postretirement benefit expense recognized
on an annual basis.
Exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to our foreign operations’ buying, selling and financing in
currencies other than local currencies and to the carrying value of net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S.
dollars. The principal foreign currency exchange rate risks to which we are exposed include the Canadian dollar, British pound sterling and Mexican peso. We
manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our foreign operations’ buying, selling and financing in currencies other than local currencies
by naturally offsetting assets and liabilities not denominated in local currencies to the extent possible. A hypothetical uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the
dollar relative to all the currencies in which our transactions are denominated would not materially impact the results of operations. We also use foreign currency
option contracts and forward agreements from time to time to hedge foreign currency transactional exposure. We generally do not hedge the foreign currency
exposure related to our net investment in foreign subsidiaries, since we have no near-term intent to repatriate funds from such subsidiaries.
Exposure to market risk for fluctuations in fuel prices relates to a small portion of our service contracts for which the cost of fuel is integral to service
delivery and the service contract does not have a mechanism to adjust for increases in fuel prices. As of December 31, 2020, we also had various fuel purchase
arrangements in place to ensure delivery of fuel at market rates in the event of fuel shortages. We are exposed to fluctuations in fuel prices in these arrangements
since none of the arrangements fix the price of fuel to be purchased. Changes in the price of fuel are generally passed on to our customers for which we realize
minimal changes in profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by sudden increases
or decreases in market fuel prices during a short period of time as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on trailing market fuel costs. We believe
the exposure to fuel price fluctuations would not materially impact our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP) requires us to make estimates
and assumptions. Our significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain of these policies require the
application of subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. These
estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, changes in the business environment and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Different estimates that could have been applied in the current period or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely can result in
a material impact on our financial condition and operating results in the current and future periods. We review the development, selection and disclosure of these
critical accounting estimates with Ryder’s Audit Committee on an annual basis.
The following discussion, which should be read in conjunction with the descriptions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, is furnished for
additional insight into certain accounting estimates that we consider to be critical.
Depreciation and Residual Value Estimates. Depreciation on the vehicles in our fleet is determined at the time of acquisition and is recognized over a
vehicle's useful life to its estimated residual value (i.e., the price at which we ultimately expect to dispose of vehicles) to attempt to minimize gains or losses upon
sale in the used vehicle market.
We periodically review and adjust, as appropriate, the estimated residual values and useful lives of existing revenue earning equipment for the purposes of
recording depreciation expense as described in Note 5, “Revenue Earning Equipment, Net" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on the results
of our analysis, we may adjust the estimated residual values and useful lives of certain classes of our revenue earning equipment each year. Reductions in estimated
residual values or useful lives will result in an increase in depreciation expense over the remaining useful life of the vehicle. Our review of the estimated residual
values and useful lives of revenue earning equipment is established with a long-term view, which we refer to as "policy depreciation," based on vehicle class,
generally subcategories of trucks, tractors and trailers by weight and usage, as well as other factors. These other factors include, but are not limited to, historical
market prices, current and expected future market prices, expected lives of vehicles, and expected sales of used vehicles in the wholesale and retail markets. We
also assess estimates of residual values of vehicles expected to be made available for sale in the near-term (generally 12 to 24 months) based on near-term market
rates and conditions and may adjust residual values for these vehicles, which we refer to as “accelerated depreciation.” As disclosed in Note 5, "Revenue Earning
Equipment, Net," we reviewed and revised our estimated residual values in the third quarter of 2019, and again, in the first half of 2020 largely due to impacts from
COVID-19. The nature of these estimate changes and the impact to earnings are disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The impact of the
policy depreciation estimate change in the second quarter of 2020 as a percentage of our original vehicle investment was approximately 3%. We have not made any

Our accelerated depreciation residual value levels for both tractors and trucks, which include the impact of COVID-19, are currently below our average
annual used vehicle pricing for each year in the last 20 years. These average annual used vehicle pricing levels are calculated based on used vehicle prices as a
percentage of our original vehicle investment (cost).
Policy Depreciation Sensitivity
Based on our fleet of revenue earning equipment as of December 31, 2020, a hypothetical additional 10% reduction in estimated residual values as a
percentage of original vehicle investment used for policy depreciation would increase depreciation expense over the remaining life of these vehicles by
approximately $280 million. Our average annual used vehicle pricing as a percentage of our original vehicle investment has been above our current policy
depreciation residual value levels for trucks 19 out of the last 20 years and for tractors 17 out of the last 20 years.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
While we believe that the carrying values and estimated sales proceeds for revenue earning equipment are reasonable, there can be no assurance that
deterioration in economic conditions or adverse changes to expectations of future sales proceeds will not occur, resulting in losses on sales or revisions to residual
value estimates. While management believes that current estimates are reasonable given our current outlook, if our tractor used vehicle sales pricing as a
percentage of our original vehicle investment does not improve, we will likely be required to lower residual value estimates even further which may have a material
adverse effect on our financial results. Factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from estimates include, but are not limited to, changes in supply
and demand; changes in technology; competitor pricing; regulatory requirements; driver shortages, requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying
assumption factors. As a result, future residual value estimates and resulting depreciation expense are subject to change based upon changes in these factors.
Revenue Recognition. We generate revenue primarily through contracts with customers to lease, rent and maintain revenue earning equipment and to provide
logistics management and dedicated transportation services. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are
generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from
both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectibility of consideration is
probable. We recognize revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect
to receive in exchange for those products or services. We generally recognize revenue over time as we perform because of continuous transfer of control to our
customers.
We offer a full service lease as well as a lease with more flexible maintenance options under our ChoiceLease product line in our FMS business segment,
which are marketed, priced and managed as bundled products that include the equipment lease, maintenance and other related services. We do not offer a stand-
alone lease of new vehicles. Our ChoiceLease product line includes the lease of a vehicle (lease component) and maintenance and other services (non-lease
component). Contract consideration is allocated between the lease and non-lease components based on management's best estimate of the relative stand-alone
selling price of each component. Allocating consideration between the lease and maintenance components in our ChoiceLease product requires significant
judgment. We do not sell the components of our ChoiceLease product offering on a stand-alone basis, therefore significant judgment is required to determine the
stand-alone selling prices of the lease and maintenance components in order to allocate the consideration on a relative stand-alone selling price basis.
For the lease component, we estimate the stand-alone selling price using the projected cash outflows related to the underlying leased vehicle, net of the
estimated disposal proceeds, and a certain targeted return considering the weighted average cost of capital. For the non-lease component of the contract, we
estimate the stand-alone selling price of the maintenance component using an expected cost-plus margin approach. The expected costs are based on our historical
costs of providing maintenance services in our ChoiceLease arrangements. The margin is based on the historical margin percentages for our full service
maintenance contracts in the SelectCare product line, as the maintenance performance obligation in those contracts is similar to maintenance in our ChoiceLease
arrangements. Full service maintenance arrangements in SelectCare are priced based on targeted margin percentages for new and used vehicles by type of vehicle
(trucks, tractors, and trailers), considering the fixed and variable costs of providing maintenance services.
We recognize maintenance revenue using an input method, consistent with the estimated pattern of the costs to maintain the underlying vehicles. This
generally results in the recognition of a contract liability for the portion of the customer's billings allocated to the maintenance service component of the agreement.
The non-lease revenue component for maintenance included in "Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues" was $965 million, $950 million and $909
million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
The stand-alone price for both the lease and non-lease components could vary in the future based on both external market conditions and our pricing
strategies as a result of the market conditions.
Pension Plans. We apply actuarial methods to determine the annual net periodic pension expense and pension plan liabilities on an annual basis, or on an
interim basis if there is an event, such as a curtailment, requiring remeasurement. Each December, we review actual experience compared with the assumptions
used and make adjustments to our assumptions, if warranted. In determining our annual estimate of periodic pension cost, we are required to make an evaluation of
critical factors such as discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on assets, expected increase in compensation levels, retirement rate and mortality. Discount
rates are based upon a duration analysis of expected benefit payments and the equivalent average yield for high quality corporate fixed income investments as of
our annual measurement date at December 31. In order to estimate the
51
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
discount rate relevant to our plan, we use models that match projected benefits payments of our primary U.S. plan to coupons and maturities from a hypothetical
portfolio of high quality corporate bonds. Long-term rate of return assumptions are based on a review of our asset allocation strategy and long-term expected asset
returns. Investment management and other fees paid using plan assets are factored into the determination of asset return assumptions.
Assumptions as to mortality of the participants in our pension plan is a key estimate in measuring the expected payments participants may receive over their
lifetime, and therefore the amount of expense we will recognize. We update our mortality assumptions as deemed necessary by taking into consideration relevant
actuarial studies as they become available as well as reassessing our own historical experience.
As part of our strategy to manage future pension costs and net funded status volatility, we regularly assess our pension investment strategy. Our U.S. pension
investment policy and strategy seek to reduce the effects of future volatility on the fair value of our pension assets relative to our pension liabilities by increasing
our allocation of high quality, longer-term fixed income securities and reducing our allocation of equity investments as the funded status of the plan improves. The
composition of our pension assets was 33% equity securities and alternative assets and 67% debt securities and other investments as of December 31, 2020. We
continually evaluate our mix of investments between equity and fixed income securities and adjust the composition of our pension assets when appropriate. In
2021, we adjusted our long-term expected rate of return assumption for our primary U.S. plan to 3.90% from 5.05% based on our expected asset mix which has a
higher proportion of debt securities.
Accounting guidance applicable to pension plans does not require immediate recognition of the effects of a deviation between these assumptions and actual
experience or the revision of an estimate. This approach allows the favorable and unfavorable effects that fall within an acceptable range to be netted and included
in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” We had a pre-tax accumulated actuarial loss of $855 million and $870 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively. To the extent the amount of cumulative actuarial gains and losses exceed 10% of the greater of the benefit obligation or plan assets, the excess amount
is amortized over the average remaining life expectancy of active participants or the remaining life expectancy of inactive participants. As of December 31, 2020,
the amount of the actuarial loss subject to amortization in 2021 and future years is $604 million. We expect to recognize approximately $28 million of the net
actuarial loss as a component of pension expense in 2021. The effect on years beyond 2021 will depend substantially upon the actual experience of our plans in
future years.
Disclosure of the significant assumptions used in arriving at the 2020 net pension expense is presented in Note 18, “Employee Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. A sensitivity analysis of net pension expense to changes in key underlying assumptions for our primary plan, the U.S. pension
plan, is presented below:

Self-Insurance Accruals. Self-insurance accruals were $444 million and $411 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The majority of our
self-insurance relates to vehicle liability and workers’ compensation. We use a variety of statistical and actuarial methods that are widely used and accepted in the
insurance industry to estimate amounts for claims that have been reported but not paid and claims incurred but not reported. In applying these methods and
assessing their results, we consider such factors as frequency and severity of claims, claim development and payment patterns, and changes in the nature of our
business, among other factors. Such factors are analyzed for each of our business segments. Our estimates may be impacted by such factors as increases in the
market price for medical services, unpredictability of the size of jury awards and limitations inherent in the estimation process. During both 2020 and 2019, we
recognized charges of $18 million from the development of estimated prior years’ self-insured loss reserves. Based on self-insurance accruals at December 31,
2020, a 5% adverse change in actuarial claim loss estimates would increase operating expense in 2021 by approximately $22 million.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
Goodwill Impairment. We assess goodwill for impairment, as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, on an annual basis or more often if deemed necessary. As of December 31, 2020, total
goodwill was $475 million. To determine whether goodwill is impaired, we are required to assess the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to its carrying
value. A reporting unit is a component of an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews its
operating performance.
We assess goodwill for impairment on October 1st of each year or more often if deemed necessary. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, we have the
option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary, such as macroeconomic conditions, changes in our industry
and the markets in which we operate, and our market capitalization as well as our reporting units' historical and expected future financial performance. If we
conclude that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value or we bypass the optional qualitative assessment,
recoverability is assessed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, we
will measure any goodwill impairment losses as the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount
of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
For quantitative tests, we estimated the fair value of the reporting units using a combination of both a market and income approach. We perform our
quantitative impairment test with the assistance of a third-party specialist. Under the market approach, we use a selection of comparable publicly-traded companies
that correspond to the reporting unit to derive a market-based multiple. Under the income approach, the fair value of the reporting unit is estimated based on the
discounted present value of the projected future cash flows. Rates used to discount cash flows are dependent upon interest rates and the cost of capital based on our
industry and capital structure, adjusted for equity and size risk premiums based on market capitalization. Estimates of future cash flows are dependent on our
knowledge and experience about past and current events and significant judgments and assumptions about conditions we expect to exist, including revenue growth
rates, margins, long-term growth rates, capital requirements, proceeds from the sale of used vehicles, the ability to utilize our tax net operating losses, and the
discount rate. Our estimates of cash flows are also based on historical and future operating performance, economic conditions and actions we expect to take. In
addition to these factors, our SCS and DTS reporting units are dependent on several key customers or industry sectors. The loss of a key customer may have a
significant impact to our SCS or DTS reporting units, causing us to assess whether or not the event resulted in a goodwill impairment loss.
In making our assessments of fair value, we rely on our knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about conditions we expect
to exist in the future. These assumptions are based on a number of factors, including future operating performance, economic conditions, actions we expect to take
and present value techniques. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill
impairment. It is possible that assumptions underlying the impairment analysis will change in such a manner that impairment in value may occur in the future. We
conduct additional sensitivity analyses to assess the risk for potential impairment based upon changes in the key assumptions in our goodwill valuation test,
including long-term growth rates and discount rates.
As further discussed in Note 7, “Goodwill,” we performed an interim impairment test of our FMS North America reporting unit (FMS NA) in the first
quarter of 2020 as a result of the decline in market conditions and our updated outlook as a result of the impact of COVID-19. Our valuation of fair value for FMS
NA was determined based on a discounted future cash flow model (income approach) and the application of current market multiples for comparable publicly-
traded companies (market approach). Based on our analysis, we determined that FMS NA goodwill was not impaired as of March 31, 2020. The estimated fair
value of the FMS NA reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 5% as of March 31, 2020.
Given this level of fair value, in the event the financial performance of FMS NA does not meet our expectations in the future; we experience future
prolonged market downturns, including in the used vehicle market or sustained declines in our stock price; worsening trends from the COVID-19 pandemic; or
there are other negative revisions to key assumptions, we may be required to perform additional impairment analyses and could be required to recognize a non-cash
goodwill impairment charge. As of December 31, 2020, FMS NA goodwill was $244 million. We determined that there have not been any interim impairment
trigger events since the first quarter of 2020.
On October 1, 2020, we completed our annual goodwill impairment test for all reporting units and conducted a qualitative analysis based on market
conditions, business performance and our stock price. Based on this analysis, we determined that the fair values more likely than not exceeded their respective
carrying values for each reporting unit.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
Income Taxes. Our overall tax position is complex and requires careful analysis by management to estimate the expected realization of income tax assets and
liabilities.
Tax regulations can require items to be included in the tax return at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. As a result, the
effective tax rate reflected in the financial statements can be different than that reported in the tax return. Timing differences create deferred tax assets and
liabilities. Deferred tax assets generally represent items that can be used as a tax deduction or credit in the tax return in future years, for which we have already
recognized the tax benefit in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets were $814 million and $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We
recognize a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets to reduce such assets to amounts expected to be realized. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the deferred
tax valuation allowance was $41 million and $18 million, respectively. Refer to Note 10, “Income Taxes,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for
information regarding the valuation allowance that was recorded in 2020 related to our U.K. deferred tax assets. In determining the required level of valuation
allowance, we consider whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. This assessment is based on
management’s expectations as to whether sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character will be realized within tax carryback and carryforward periods. Our
assessment involves estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain, and unanticipated events or circumstances could cause actual results to
differ from these estimates. Should we change our estimate of the amount of deferred tax assets that we would be able to realize, an adjustment to the valuation
allowance would result in an increase or decrease to the provision for income taxes in the period such a change in estimate was made.
As part of our calculation of the provision for income taxes, we determine whether the benefits of our tax positions are at least more likely than not of being
sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. We accrue the largest amount of the benefit that has a cumulative probability of greater than
50% of being sustained. These accruals require management to make estimates and judgments with respect to the ultimate outcome of a tax audit. Actual results
could vary materially from these estimates.
A number of years may elapse before a particular matter for which we have established a reserve is audited and finally resolved. The number of years
exposed to audit due to open statutes varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The tax benefit that has been previously reserved because of a failure to meet the
“more likely than not” recognition threshold would be recognized in our income tax expense in the first interim period when the uncertainty is resolved under any
one of the following conditions: (1) the tax position has been determined to be “more likely than not” of being sustained, (2) the tax position, amount and/or timing
is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation, or (3) the statutes of limitations for the tax position has expired. Refer to Note 10, “Income Taxes,” in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

NON-GAAP AND SEGMENT FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures. This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes information extracted from consolidated financial information that is not
required by U.S. GAAP to be presented in the financial statements. Certain elements of this information are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined
by SEC rules. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance
or liquidity prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Also, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to financial measures used by other
companies. We provide a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure in this non-GAAP financial
measures section or in the MD&A above. We also provide the reasons why management believes each non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in this
section.

Set forth in the table below is an overview of each non-GAAP financial measure and why management believes that presentation of each non-GAAP
financial measure provides useful information to investors.
Operating Revenue Measures:
Operating Revenue
FMS Operating Revenue
SCS Operating Revenue
DTS Operating Revenue
FMS EBT as a % of FMS Operating Revenue
SCS EBT as a % of SCS Operating Revenue
DTS EBT as a % of DTS Operating Revenue
Operating revenue is defined as total revenue for Ryder System, Inc. or each business segment (FMS, SCS and
DTS) excluding any (1) fuel and (2) subcontracted transportation, as well as (3) revenue from our ChoiceLease
liability insurance program which was discontinued in early 2020. We believe operating revenue provides useful
information to investors as we use it to evaluate the operating performance of our core businesses and as a
measure of sales activity at the consolidated level for Ryder System, Inc., as well as for each of our business
segments. We also use segment EBT as a percentage of segment operating revenue for each business segment
for the same reason. Note: FMS EBT, SCS EBT and DTS EBT, our primary measures of segment performance,
are not non-GAAP measures.
Fuel: We exclude FMS, SCS and DTS fuel from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as fuel is an
ancillary service that we provide our customers, which is impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices and the
costs are largely a pass-through to our customers, resulting in minimal changes in our profitability during
periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by rapid
changes in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel services is established
based on trailing market fuel costs.
Subcontracted transportation: We exclude subcontracted transportation from the calculation of our operating
revenue measures, as these services are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore,
fluctuations result in minimal changes to our profitability. While our SCS and DTS business segments
subcontract certain transportation services to third party providers, our FMS business segment does not engage
in subcontracted transportation and, therefore, this item is not applicable to FMS.
ChoiceLease liability insurance: We exclude ChoiceLease liability insurance as we announced our plan in the
first quarter of 2020 to exit the extension of our liability insurance coverage for ChoiceLease customers. The
exit of this program is estimated to be completed in the first quarter of 2021. We are excluding the revenues
associated with this program for better comparability of our on-going operations.

Comparable Earnings Measures:
Comparable Earnings (Loss) before Income Taxes
(EBT)
Comparable Earnings (Loss)
Comparable Earnings (Loss) per Diluted Common
Share (EPS)
Comparable Tax Rate
Adjusted Return on Equity (ROE)
Comparable Earnings Before Interest, Taxes,
Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
Comparable EBT, comparable earnings and comparable EPS are defined, respectively, as U.S. GAAP EBT,
earnings and EPS, all from continuing operations, excluding (1) non-operating pension costs and (2) any other
significant items that are not representative of our business operations. We believe these comparable earnings
measures provide useful information to investors and allow for better year-over-year comparison of operating
performance.
Non-operating pension costs: Our comparable earnings measures exclude non-operating pension costs, which
include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan
assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs, as well as a settlement or curtailment of a plan.
We exclude non-operating pension costs because we consider these to be impacted by financial market
performance and outside the operational performance of our business.
Other Items Impacting Comparability: Our comparable and adjusted earnings measures also exclude other
significant items that are not representative of our business operations as detailed in the reconciliation table
below. These other significant items vary from period to period and, in some periods, there may be no such
significant items.
Comparable tax rate is computed using the same methodology as the U.S. GAAP provision for income taxes.
Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the statutory tax rates of the jurisdictions
to which the non-GAAP adjustments relate.
Adjusted ROE is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by adjusted average shareholders' equity and
represents the rate of return on shareholders' investment. Other items impacting comparability described above
are excluded, as applicable, from the calculation of net earnings and average shareholders' equity. We use
adjusted ROE as an internal measure of how effectively we use the owned capital invested in our operations.
Comparable EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss), first adjusted to exclude discontinued operations and
the following items, all from continuing operations: (1) non-operating pension costs and (2) any other items
that are not representative of our business operations (these items are the same items that are excluded from
comparable earnings measures for the relevant periods as described immediately above) and then adjusted
further for (1) interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation, (4) used vehicle sales results and (5)
amortization.
We believe comparable EBITDA provides investors with useful information, as it is a standard measure
commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure financial
performance and our ability to service debt and meet our payment obligations. In addition, we believe that the
inclusion of comparable EBITDA provides consistency in financial reporting and enables analysts and
investors to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results. Other companies
may calculate comparable EBITDA differently; therefore, our presentation of comparable EBITDA may not be
comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
Comparable EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings (loss), earnings from
continuing operations before income taxes or earnings from continuing operations determined in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from
operating activities (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), as an indicator of cash flows, or as a measure
of liquidity.
57
Cash Flow Measures:
Total Cash Generated
Free Cash Flow
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
We consider total cash generated and free cash flow to be important measures of comparative operating
performance, as our principal sources of operating liquidity are cash from operations and proceeds from the sale
of revenue earning equipment.
Total Cash Generated is defined as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash
provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment, (3) net cash provided by the sale of operating property and
equipment and (4) other cash inflows from investing activities. We believe total cash generated is an important
measure of total cash flows generated from our ongoing business activities.
Free Cash Flow is defined as the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities
(excluding acquisitions) from continuing operations. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of (1) net cash
provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating
property and equipment, and (3) other cash inflows from investing activities, less (4) purchases of property and
revenue earning equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the
cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments required to support
ongoing business operations. Our calculation of free cash flow may be different from the calculation used by
other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

calculated based on statutory tax rates of the jurisdictions to which the non-GAAP adjustments related. Refer to the previous table for further information on the tax adjustments.
In 2020, tax adjustments, net included expenses related to a valuation allowance of $13 million on our U.K. deferred tax assets, expiring state net operating losses of $7 million, and state
law changes of $2 million. In 2019, tax adjustments, net primarily included expenses related to expiring state net operating losses of $5 million. In 2018, tax adjustments, net included an
expense of $15 million to the provisional estimates recorded in connection with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, offset by a one-time benefit of $10 million related to the correction of our
deferred tax assets and uncertain tax position and $3 million benefit from state law changes.
(3) The effective tax rate on continuing operations and comparable tax rate on continuing operations are based on our earnings from continuing operations before income taxes (EBT) and

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF RYDER SYSTEM, INC.:
Management of Ryder System, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Ryder), 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. Ryder’s internal control over financial
reporting 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.
Ryder’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 Ryder; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of Ryder’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Ryder’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 Ryder’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making this assessment,
management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework
(2013).” Based on our assessment and those criteria, management determined that Ryder maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2020.
Ryder’s independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, has audited the effectiveness of Ryder’s internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2020. Their report appears on the subsequent page.
68
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Ryder System, Inc.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ryder System, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
and the related consolidated statements of earnings, of comprehensive income, of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2020, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the
“consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, 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 opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over
financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal
control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial
reporting 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 based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
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 generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of 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 (iii) 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.
69
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.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or
required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii)
involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the
consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical
audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Revenue Earning Equipment - Residual Values
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the net carrying amount of revenue earning equipment was $8.8 billion as of December 31,
2020. Depreciation expense was $1.9 billion primarily related to Fleet Management Solutions (FMS) revenue earning equipment. Revenue earning equipment,
comprised of vehicles, is initially recorded at cost inclusive of vendor rebates. The provision for depreciation is computed using the straight-line method.
Management periodically reviews and adjusts, as appropriate, the estimated residual values and useful lives of existing revenue earning equipment. Management’s
review of the estimated residual values and useful lives is established with a long-term view based on vehicle class, generally subcategories of trucks, tractors and
trailers by weight, usage and other factors, including but not limited to historical, current and expected future market prices; expected lives of vehicles; and
expected sales of used vehicles in the wholesale and retail markets.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue earning equipment - residual values is a critical audit matter are
the significant judgment by management when estimating residual values, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in
performing procedures and in evaluating the significant judgment by management in estimating residual values related to the Company’s historical, current and
expected future market prices, and expected sales of used vehicles in the wholesale and retail markets.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial
statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s assessment of, and related adjustments to, the estimated
residual values of revenue earning equipment. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the estimated
residual values of revenue earning equipment, (ii) testing the accuracy of the Company’s historical used vehicle sales data, (iii) assessing management’s estimates
of current and expected future market prices of used vehicles and management’s assumptions about the expected sales of used vehicles in the wholesale and retail
markets, and (iv) testing the calculation of the adjustment to depreciation expense based on updated estimated residual values. Evaluating management’s
assumptions related to expected future market prices of used vehicles and the expected sales of used vehicles in the wholesale and retail markets involved
evaluating whether the assumptions used were reasonable considering (i) past trends in the used vehicle sales market, (ii) the consistency with external market and
industry data, and (iii) whether they were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.
Goodwill Impairment Assessment - FMS North America Reporting Unit
As described in Notes 1 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was $475 million as of December 31, 2020,
and the goodwill associated with the FMS North America (FMS NA) reporting unit was $244 million. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually as of
October 1 of each year, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. If management concludes that it is
more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value or if management bypasses the optional qualitative assessment, recoverability of
goodwill is assessed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value,
management would recognize a goodwill impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the
total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In the first quarter of 2020, management performed an impairment test of the FMS NA reporting unit. Fair
value for the FMS NA reporting unit was determined based on a discounted future cash flow model (income approach) and the application of current market
multiples for comparable publicly-traded companies (market approach). Under the income approach, the fair value of the FMS NA reporting unit is estimated
based on the discounted present value of the projected future cash flows. Management’s cash flow projections for the FMS NA reporting unit included significant
judgments and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, margins, long-term growth rates, capital requirements, proceeds from the sale of
70
used vehicles, the ability to utilize tax net operating losses, and the discount rate. Under the market approach, management uses a selection of comparable publicly-
traded companies that correspond to the FMS NA reporting unit to derive a market-based multiple.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill impairment assessment of the FMS NA reporting unit is a
critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value measurement of the reporting unit, which in turn led to (ii) a
high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained relating to management’s valuation
models and significant assumptions related to revenue growth rates, margins, and the discount rate, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with
specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial
statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment assessment, including controls over the
valuation of the FMS NA reporting unit. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate, (ii)
evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation models, (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the models, and (iv) evaluating the
significant assumptions used by management, related to the revenue growth rates, margins, and discount rate. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to the
revenue growth rates and margins involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) the current and past
performance of the reporting unit, (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data, and (iii) whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence
obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the Company’s valuation models and
the discount rate.

RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) and all entities in which Ryder has a controlling voting interest
(subsidiaries) and variable interest entities (VIEs) where Ryder is determined to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). Ryder is deemed to be the primary beneficiary if we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly
impact the entity’s economic performance and we share in the significant risks and rewards of the entity. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) Fleet Management Solutions (FMS), which
provides full service leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental, and maintenance services of trucks, tractors and trailers to
customers principally in the United States (U.S.), Canada and the United Kingdom (U.K.); (2) Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which provides integrated logistics
solutions, including distribution management, dedicated transportation, transportation management, last mile and professional services in North America; and (3)
Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS), which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles, drivers, management and
administrative support.
In 2020, we adjusted our presentation of our revolving credit facility proceeds and repayments in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for 2018 and
2019 from a net basis to reflect a gross basis.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of historical trends, actions that we may
take in the future, and other information available when the consolidated financial statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are typically recognized in the
period when new information becomes available. Areas where the nature of the estimate make it reasonably possible that actual results could materially differ from
the amounts estimated include: depreciation and residual values, employee benefit plan obligations, self-insurance accruals, impairment assessments on long-lived
assets (including goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), allowance for credit losses, income tax and deferred tax liabilities, and contingent liabilities.
COVID-19
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has negatively impacted several areas of our businesses. In our FMS business segment, we experienced lower
demand for commercial rental and declines in the used vehicle market through the second quarter (refer to Note 5, "Revenue Earning Equipment, net," for
additional information on residual value estimate changes in the first half of 2020). During the second half of 2020, we started to experience a steady recovery in
these areas as compared to the second quarter. In our SCS business segment, we experienced a deterioration in customer activity during the first half of 2020,
primarily due to the temporary shutdowns in the automotive industry, which restarted their operations during the second quarter and are generally at normal
operating levels. In addition, we experienced a slowdown in our sales growth opportunities in all of our businesses primarily through the third quarter. We
established additional credit loss reserves during the year due to our expectations for COVID-19 related payment activity as a result of increased bankruptcies or
insolvencies, or a delay in payments. We have attempted to mitigate the adverse impacts from the pandemic through cost reduction measures, including lower
discretionary and overhead spending, and a reduction in capital expenditures, as well as temporary employee furloughs which primarily occurred in the second
quarter. In addition, we took actions to reduce headcount at the end of the second quarter, primarily in our North American and U.K. FMS operations. In the fourth
quarter of 2020, we recognized and paid a one-time, special recognition and retention bonus of approximately $28 million to our front-line non-incentive
compensation plan eligible employees in recognition of the work performed during the pandemic.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The
CARES Act, among other things, provides for an acceleration of alternative minimum tax credit refunds, the deferral of certain employer payroll taxes, the
availability of an employee retention credit, and expands the availability of net operating loss usage. In addition, other governments in state, local and foreign
jurisdictions in which we operate have also enacted certain relief measures. We continue to monitor new and updated legislation, however the provisions enacted
have not had a material impact on our financial statements or liquidity position.
Depending on the extent and duration of the pandemic and the related economic impacts, it may have a further impact on our business and financial results,
as well as on significant judgments and estimates, including those related to goodwill and

other asset impairments, residual values and other depreciation assumptions, deferred income taxes and annual effective tax rates, variable revenue considerations,
the valuation of our pension plans, and allowance for credit losses.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents represent investments in short-term, interest-bearing instruments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase and are
stated at cost.
Revenue Recognition
We generate revenue primarily through contracts with customers to lease, rent and maintain revenue earning equipment and to provide logistics management
and dedicated transportation services. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being
distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the
parties are identified, payment terms are determined, the contract has commercial substance, and collectibility of consideration is probable.
We generally recognize revenue over time as we provide the promised products or services to our customers in an amount we expect to receive in exchange for
those products or services. Revenue is recognized net of amounts collected from customers for taxes, such as sales tax, that are remitted to the applicable taxing
authorities.
Lease & related maintenance and rental
Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues include ChoiceLease and commercial rental revenues from our FMS business segment. We offer a full
service lease as well as a lease with more flexible maintenance options under our ChoiceLease product line. Our ChoiceLease product is marketed, priced and
managed as a bundled service. We do not offer a stand-alone lease of a vehicle. We offer rental of vehicles under our commercial rental product line, which allows
customers to supplement their fleet of vehicles on a short-term basis.
Our ChoiceLease product line includes the lease of a vehicle (lease component) and maintenance and other services (non-lease component). We generally
lease new vehicles to our customers. Consideration is allocated between the lease and non-lease components based on management's best estimate of the relative
stand-alone selling price of each component. For further information regarding our stand-alone selling price estimation process, refer to the "Significant Judgments
and Estimates" section below.
Our ChoiceLease product provides for a fixed charge and a variable charge based on mileage or time usage. Fixed charges are typically billed at the
beginning of the month and variable charges are typically billed a month in arrears. Revenue from the lease component of ChoiceLease agreements is recognized
based on the classification of the arrangement, typically as either an operating or a sales-type lease. The majority of our leases are classified as operating leases and
we recognize revenue for the lease component of these agreements on a straight-line basis. The non-lease component for maintenance services are not typically
performed evenly over the life of a ChoiceLease contract as the level of maintenance provided generally increases as vehicles age. Therefore, we recognize
maintenance revenue consistent with the estimated pattern of the costs to maintain the underlying vehicles. This generally results in the recognition of deferred
revenue for the portion of the customer's billings allocated to the maintenance service component of the agreement.
Our commercial rental product includes the short-term rental of a vehicle (one day up to one year in length). All of our rental arrangements are classified as
operating leases and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis.
Lease and rental agreements do not usually provide for scheduled rent increases or escalations. However, most lease agreements allow for rate changes based
upon changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Lease and rental agreements also provide for variable usage charges based on a time charge and/or a fixed per-
mile charge. The time charge, the per-mile charge and the changes in rates attributed to changes in the CPI are considered contingent revenue. Therefore, these
charges are not considered fixed or determinable until the equipment usage or CPI change occurs and are excluded from the allocation of consideration at the
inception of the contract. Revenues associated with licensing and operating taxes that are billed as incurred based on the contract arrangement are also excluded
from the allocation of consideration at contract inception and allocated as earned.
Variable consideration, such as billing for mileage and changes in CPI as well as licensing and operating tax revenues, is allocated to the lease and
maintenance components based on the same allocation percentages at contract inception (or the most
78
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

recent contract modification) when earned. Variable consideration allocated to the lease component is recognized in revenue as earned and variable consideration
allocated to the non-lease component is recognized in revenue using an input method, consistent with the estimated pattern of maintenance costs for the remainder
of the contract term.
Leases not classified as operating leases are considered sales-type leases. We recognize revenue for sales-type leases using the effective interest method,
which provides a constant periodic rate of return on the outstanding investment in the lease. We lease new or used vehicles under our sales-type lease
arrangements. However, there is generally not a significant difference between the net investment in the lease and the carrying value of the vehicles; therefore, we
generally do not recognize selling profit or loss in our results of operations at lease commencement.
Services
Services revenue includes all SCS and DTS revenues, as well as SelectCare and other revenues from our FMS business segment. In our SCS business
segment, we offer a broad range of logistics management services designed to optimize the supply chain and address the key business requirements of our
customers supported by a variety of technology and engineering solutions. SCS operates by industry verticals (Automotive, Technology and Healthcare, Consumer
Packaged Goods and Retail, and Industrial and Other) to enable our teams to focus on the specific needs of our customers. In our DTS business segment, we
combine equipment, maintenance, drivers, administrative services and additional services to provide customers with a single integrated dedicated transportation
solution. DTS transportation solutions are customized for our customers based on a transportation analysis to optimize vehicle capacity and overall asset utilization.
Revenues from SCS and DTS service contracts are recognized as services are rendered in accordance with contract terms. SCS and DTS contracts typically
include (1) fixed and variable billing rates, (2) cost-plus billing rates (input method based on actual costs incurred to perform services and a contracted mark-up), or
(3) variable only or fixed only billing rates for the services. Our billing structure aligns with the value transferred to our customers. We generally have a right to
consideration in an amount that corresponds directly with the value we have delivered to the customer.
Our customers contract us to provide an integrated service of transportation or supply chain logistical services into a single transportation or supply chain
solution. Therefore, we typically recognize SCS and DTS service contracts as one performance obligation satisfied over time. We generally sell a customized
customer-specific solution and use the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation.
Under our SelectCare arrangements, we provide maintenance and repairs required to keep a vehicle in good operating condition, perform preventive
maintenance inspections, provide access to emergency road service, and substitute vehicles. We provide these maintenance services to customers who choose not
to lease our vehicles. The vast majority of our services are routine and performed on a recurring basis throughout the term of the arrangement. From time to time,
we provide non-routine major repair services in order to place a vehicle back in service.
Our maintenance service arrangement provides for a monthly fixed charge and a monthly variable charge based on mileage or time usage. Fixed charges are
typically billed at the beginning of the month for the services to be provided that month, while variable charges are typically billed a month in arrears. Most
maintenance agreements allow for rate changes based upon changes in the CPI. The fixed per-mile charge and the changes in rates attributed to changes in the CPI
are recognized as earned.
The maintenance service is the only performance obligation in SelectCare contracts. For contract maintenance agreements, revenue is recognized as
maintenance services are rendered over the terms of the related arrangements. We generally account for long-term maintenance contracts as one-year contracts
since our maintenance arrangements are typically cancellable, without penalty, after one year. For transactional maintenance services, revenue is recognized at the
point in time when the service is provided.
Costs associated with the activities performed under our maintenance arrangements are primarily comprised of labor, parts and outside repair work and are
expensed as incurred. Non-chargeable maintenance costs have been allocated and reflected within “Cost of services” based on the proportionate maintenance-
related labor costs relative to all product lines.

Fuel Services
Fuel services revenue is reported in our FMS business segment. We provide our FMS customers with access to fuel at our maintenance facilities across the
U.S. and Canada. Fuel services revenue is invoiced to customers at contracted rates separate from other services being provided in other contracts, or at retail
prices. Revenue from fuel services is recognized when fuel is delivered to customers. Fuel is largely a pass-through to our customers, for which we realize minimal
changes in profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by sudden increases or
decreases in market fuel prices during a short period of time as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on trailing market fuel costs.
Significant Judgments and Estimates
We allocate the contract consideration from our ChoiceLease arrangements between the lease and maintenance components based on the relative stand-alone
selling prices of each of those services. We do not sell the lease component of our ChoiceLease product offering on a stand-alone basis, therefore significant
judgment is required to determine the stand-alone selling price of the lease component. We sell maintenance services separately through our SelectCare
arrangements.
For the lease component, we estimate the stand-alone selling price using the projected cash outflows related to the underlying leased vehicle, net of the
estimated disposal proceeds, and a certain targeted return considering our weighted average cost of capital. For the non-lease component of the contract, we
estimate the stand-alone selling price of the maintenance component using an expected cost-plus margin approach. The expected costs are based on our history of
providing maintenance services in our ChoiceLease arrangements. The margin is based on the historical margin percentages for our full service maintenance
contracts in the SelectCare product line, as the maintenance performance obligation in those contracts is similar to our ChoiceLease arrangements.
Our SCS and DTS contracts often include promises to transfer multiple services to a customer. Our SCS and DTS services provided within a contract depend
on a significant level of integration and interdependency between the services. Judgment is required to determine whether each service is considered distinct and
accounted for as a separate performance obligation, or accounted for together as a significant integrated service and recognized over time. In making this judgment,
we consider whether the services provided, within the context of the contract, represent the transfer of individual services or a combined bundle of services to the
customer. This involves evaluating the promises to a customer within a contract to identify the services that need to be performed in order for the promise to be
satisfied. Since multiple services that occur at different points in time during a contract may be accounted for as an integrated service, judgment is required to
assess the pattern of delivery to our customers.
Contract Balances
We record a receivable related to revenue recognized when we have an unconditional right to invoice. We do not have material contract assets as we
generally invoice customers as we perform services. We have elected to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component as the period between
the receipt of customer payment and the transfer of service to the customer is less than a year. Refer to Note 4, "Receivables, Net" for the amount of our trade
receivables.
Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue, which primarily relates to payments received or due in advance of performance for the maintenance
services component of our ChoiceLease product. Changes in contract liabilities are due to the collection of cash or the satisfaction of our performance obligation
under the contract. Refer to Note 3, "Revenue," for further information.
Costs to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract
Our incremental direct costs of obtaining and fulfilling a contract, which primarily consist of sales commissions and start-up costs, are capitalized and
amortized over the period of contract performance or a longer period, generally, the estimated life of the customer relationship if renewals are expected and the
renewal commission is not commensurate with the initial commission. We capitalize incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract that (1) relate directly to the
contract and (2) are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contract. This requires an evaluation of whether the costs are incremental and
would not have occurred absent the customer contract.
80
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Capitalized sales commissions related to our ChoiceLease product are amortized based on the same pattern as the revenue is recognized for the underlying
lease or non-lease components of the contract; generally on a straight-line basis for the lease component and consistent with the estimated pattern of maintenance
costs for the non-lease component. We allocate the ChoiceLease commissions to the lease and non-lease components based on the same allocation of the contract
consideration. The amortization period aligns with the term of our contract, which typically ranges from three to seven years.
Capitalized sales commissions related to our SCS and DTS service contracts are generally amortized on a straight-line basis consistent with the pattern that
revenue is recognized for the underlying contracts. The amortization period aligns with the expected term of the contract, which typically ranges from three to five
years.
The incremental costs to obtain and fulfill a contract are included in “Sales-type leases and other assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Costs are
primarily amortized in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings over the expected period of benefit. Refer to
Note 3, "Revenue," for further discussion.
Allowance for Credit Losses and Other
On January 1, 2020, we adopted the new accounting guidance related to the allowance for credit losses on our trade receivables and sales-type leases. As a
result of the adoption, we increased our allowance for credit losses and reduced retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. The impact of adoption of this standard
was not material. We also maintain an allowance for billing adjustments related to certain discounts and other customer concessions. The estimates to determine
the allowance are updated regularly based on our review of historical loss rates, as well as current and expected events impacting our business segments, current
collection trends and historical billing adjustments. Amounts are charged against the allowance when the receivable is determined to be uncollectible.
When a business relationship with a customer is initiated, we evaluate collectability from the customer and it is continuously monitored as services are
provided. We have a credit rating system based on internally developed standards and ratings provided by third parties. Our credit rating system, along with
monitoring for delinquent payments, allows us to make decisions as to whether collectability is probable at the on-set of the relationship and subsequently as we
offer services. Factors considered during this process include historical payment trends, industry risks, liquidity of the customer, years in business, judgments,
liens, and bankruptcies. Payment terms vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 15 to 90 days. Due to the COVID-
19 pandemic, we temporarily extended payment terms for certain customers in the second quarter of 2020, which we have elected not to assess as a lease
modification for our ChoiceLease customers. The majority of these customers have since reverted back to their original standard payment terms. We continue to
actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on expected credit losses.
Leases
Leases as Lessor
We lease revenue earning equipment to customers for periods generally ranging from three to seven years for trucks and tractors and up to ten years for
trailers. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The standard lease agreement for revenue earning equipment provides both parties the
right to terminate; therefore, we evaluate whether the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the termination option in order to determine the appropriate lease term.
If we terminate, the customer has the right (but not obligation) to purchase the vehicle. If the customer terminates, we have the option to require the customer to
purchase the vehicle or pay a termination penalty. Our leases generally do not provide either party an option to renew the lease. We also rent revenue earning
equipment to customers on a short-term basis, from one day up to one year in length. From time to time, we may also lease facilities to third parties. The majority
of our leases are classified as operating leases. However, some of our revenue earning equipment leases are classified as sales-type leases. Refer to Note 5,
"Revenue Earning Equipment, Net" for further information on our estimates of residual values and useful lives of revenue earning equipment which impact our
sales-type leases.
81
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Leases as Lessee
We lease facilities, revenue earning equipment, material handling equipment, automated washing machines, vehicles and office equipment from third parties.
We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, which represent our right to use an underlying asset
for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most
of our leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in
determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. Operating lease ROU assets also exclude lease incentives
received. We pay variable lease charges related to property taxes, insurance and maintenance as well as changes in CPI for leased facilities; usage of revenue
earning equipment, automated washing machines, vehicles and office equipment; and hours of operation for material handling equipment. For leases with a term of
12 months or less, with the exception of our real estate leases, we do not recognize a ROU asset or liability and recognize lease payments in our income statement
on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.
Lease terms for facilities are generally three to five years with one or more five-year renewal options and the lease terms for revenue earning equipment,
material handling equipment, automated washing machines, vehicles and office equipment typically range from three to seven years with no extension options.
Certain of our material handling equipment leases have residual value guarantees. For purposes of calculating operating lease ROU assets and operating lease
liabilities, lease terms may be deemed to include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
Macroeconomic conditions are the primary factor used to estimate whether an option to extend a lease term will be exercised or not. None of our leasing
arrangements contain restrictive financial covenants. Lease expense is primarily included in "Other operating expenses" and "Selling, general and administrative
expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Refer to Note 11, "Leases," for additional information.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist primarily of fuel, tires and vehicle parts, are valued at the lower of cost using the weighted-average cost basis, or net realizable
value.
Revenue Earning Equipment, Operating Property and Equipment, and Depreciation
Revenue earning equipment, comprised of vehicles, and operating property and equipment are initially recorded at cost inclusive of vendor rebates. Revenue
earning equipment and operating property and equipment recognized as finance leases are initially recorded at the lower of the present value of the lease payments
to be made over the lease term or fair value. Vehicle repairs and maintenance that extend the life or increase the value of a vehicle are capitalized, whereas ordinary
repairs and maintenance (including tire replacement or repair) are expensed as incurred. Direct costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal-
use software are capitalized. Costs incurred during the preliminary stage of a software development project, as well as maintenance and training costs, are expensed
as incurred.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the related lease. If a substantial additional investment
is made in a leased property during the term of the lease, we re-evaluate the lease term to determine whether the investment, together with any penalties related to
non-renewal, would constitute an economic penalty such that the renewal appears to be reasonably assured.
Provision for depreciation is computed using the straight-line method on all depreciable assets. Depreciation expense has been recognized throughout the
Consolidated Statements of Earnings depending on the nature of the related asset. We periodically review and adjust, as appropriate, the estimated residual values
and useful lives of existing revenue earning equipment for purposes of recording depreciation expense. Refer to Note 5, “Revenue Earning Equipment, Net,” for
additional information.
We routinely dispose of used revenue earning equipment as part of our FMS business. Refer to Note 5, “Revenue Earning Equipment, Net” for more
information. Gains and losses on sales of operating property and equipment are reflected in “Miscellaneous income, net” in the Consolidated Statements of
Earnings.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying acquired net tangible and intangible assets. Goodwill and other
intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but rather, are tested for impairment at least annually as of October 1 of each year, or more
frequently if events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, we have the option to first
assess qualitative factors to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary, such as macroeconomic conditions, changes in our industry and the markets
in which we operate, and our market capitalization as well as our reporting units' historical and expected future financial performance.
If we conclude that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value or we bypass the optional qualitative assessment,
recoverability is assessed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, we
would recognize a goodwill impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount
of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
Our estimate of fair value for reporting units is determined based on a combination of a market and an income approach. Under the market approach, we use
a selection of comparable publicly-traded companies that correspond to the reporting unit to derive a market-based multiple. Under the income approach, the fair
value of the reporting unit is estimated based on the discounted present value of the projected future cash flows. Rates used to discount cash flows are dependent
upon interest rates and the cost of capital based on our industry and capital structure, adjusted for equity and size risk premiums based on market capitalization.
Estimates of future cash flows are dependent on our knowledge and experience about past and current events and significant judgments and assumptions about
conditions we expect to exist, including revenue growth rates, margins, long-term growth rates, capital requirements, proceeds from the sale of used vehicles, the
ability to utilize our tax net operating losses, and the discount rate. Our estimates of cash flows are also based on historical and future operating performance,
economic conditions and actions we expect to take. In addition to these factors, our SCS and DTS reporting units are dependent on several key customers or
industry sectors. The loss of a key customer may have a significant impact to our SCS or DTS reporting units, causing us to assess whether or not the event resulted
in a goodwill impairment loss.
There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. It is possible
that assumptions underlying the impairment analysis will change in such a manner that impairment in value may occur in the future.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets, consisting of our trade name, are assessed for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. The assessment is consistent with the process used to evaluate goodwill impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their
respective estimated useful lives. Identifiable intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment as described below.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Other than Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Long-lived assets held and used, including revenue earning equipment, operating property and equipment, and intangible assets with finite lives, are tested for
recoverability when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is evaluated by
comparing the carrying value of an asset or asset group to management’s best estimate of the undiscounted future operating cash flows (excluding interest charges)
expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If these comparisons indicate that the carrying value of the asset or asset group is not recoverable, an
impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds its estimated fair value. Long-lived assets to be
disposed of, including revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to
sell.
Self-Insurance Accruals
We retain a portion of the accident risk under auto liability, workers’ compensation and other insurance programs. Under our insurance programs, we retain
the risk of loss in various amounts, generally up to $3 million on a per occurrence basis. Self-insurance accruals are based primarily on an actuarially estimated,
undiscounted cost of claims, which includes claims incurred but not reported. Historical loss development factors are utilized to project the future development of
incurred losses, and these amounts are adjusted based upon actual claim experience and settlements. While we believe that the amounts are adequate, there can be
no assurance that changes to our actuarial estimates may not occur due to limitations inherent in the estimation process. Changes in the actuarial estimates of these
liabilities are charged or credited to earnings in the period determined.
83
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Amounts estimated to be paid within the next year have been classified as “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” with the remainder included in “Other
non-current liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We also maintain additional insurance at certain amounts in excess of our respective underlying retention. Amounts recoverable from insurance companies
are not offset against the related liability as our insurance policies do not extinguish or provide legal release from the obligation to make payments related to such
risk-related losses. Amounts expected to be received within the next year from insurance companies have been included within “Receivables, net” with the
remainder included in “Sales-type leases and other assets” and are recognized only when realization of the claim for recovery is considered probable.
Income Taxes
Our provision for income taxes is based on reported earnings before income taxes. Deferred taxes are recognized for the future tax effects of temporary
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, using tax rates in effect for the years in
which the differences are expected to reverse.
Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the likelihood of
realization, we consider estimates of future sources of taxable income. We calculate our current and deferred tax position based on estimates and assumptions that
could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed in subsequent years. Adjustments based on filed returns are recorded when identified.
We are subject to tax audits in numerous jurisdictions in the U.S. and around the world. Tax audits by their very nature are often complex and can require
several years to complete. In the normal course of business, we are subject to challenges from the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities regarding
amounts of taxes due. These challenges may alter the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions, or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. As
part of our calculation of the provision for income taxes on earnings, we determine whether the benefits of our tax positions are at least more likely than not of
being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is
greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Such accruals require management to make estimates and judgments with respect to the
ultimate outcome of a tax audit. Actual results could vary materially from these estimates. We adjust these reserves as well as the impact of any related interest and
penalties in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the progress of a tax audit.
Interest and penalties related to income tax exposures are recognized as incurred and included in "Provision for (benefit from) income taxes” in the
Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Accruals for income tax exposures, including penalties and interest, expected to be settled within the next year are included
in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” with the remainder included in “Other non-current liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The federal
benefit from state income tax exposures is included in “Deferred income taxes” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Severance and Contract Termination Costs
We recognize liabilities for severance and contract termination costs based upon the nature of the cost to be incurred. For involuntary separation plans that are
completed within the guidelines of our written involuntary separation plan, we recognize the liability when it is probable and reasonably estimable. For one-time
termination benefits, such as additional severance pay or benefit payouts, and other exit costs, such as contract termination costs, the liability is measured and
recognized initially at fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred, with subsequent changes to the liability recognized as adjustments in the period of
change. Severance related to position eliminations that are part of a restructuring plan is included in "Restructuring and other items, net” in the Consolidated
Statements of Earnings. Severance costs that are not part of a restructuring plan are recognized in the period incurred as a direct cost of revenue or within “Selling,
general and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings depending upon the nature of the eliminated position.
Environmental Expenditures
We recognize liabilities for environmental matters when it is probable a loss has been incurred and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Environmental
liability estimates may include costs such as anticipated site testing, consulting, remediation, disposal, post-remediation monitoring and legal fees, as appropriate.
The liability does not reflect possible recoveries from insurance companies or reimbursement of remediation costs by state agencies, but does include estimates of
cost sharing with other potentially responsible parties. Estimates are not discounted, as the timing of the anticipated cash payments is not fixed or readily
determinable. Subsequent adjustments to initial estimates are recognized as necessary based
84
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
upon additional information developed in subsequent periods. In future periods, new laws or regulations, advances in remediation technology, or additional
information about the ultimate remediation methodology to be used could significantly change our estimates. Claims for reimbursement of remediation costs are
recognized when recovery is deemed probable.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We use financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts and swaps, to manage our exposures to movements in interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies our exposure of these rate movement risks with the intent to reduce the risk or cost to us. We do not
expect to incur any losses as a result of counterparty default as we only enter into contracts with counterparties comprised of large banks and financial institutions
that meet established credit criteria.
On the date a derivative contract is executed, we formally document, among other items, the intended hedging designation and relationship, along with the
risk management objectives and strategies for entering into the derivative contract. We also formally assess, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the
derivatives we used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. Cash flows from derivatives that
are accounted for as hedges are classified in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the same category as the items being hedged. When it is determined that
a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively. The fair value of
our derivatives was not material as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Foreign Currency Translation
Our foreign operations generally use local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rates
in effect on the balance sheet date. Items in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings are translated at the average exchange rates. The related translation
adjustments are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency
transactions are recognized in “Miscellaneous income, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
Share-Based Compensation
The fair value of stock option awards and unvested restricted stock awards are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards.
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are expensed in the year they are granted. Windfall tax benefits and tax shortfalls are charged directly to income tax expense.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that
determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights
in undistributed earnings. RSUs are considered participating securities since the share-based awards contain a non-forfeitable right to dividend equivalents
irrespective of whether the awards ultimately vest. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed
earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted
average shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per common share reflect the dilutive effect of potential common shares from stock options and other nonparticipating unvested stock. The
dilutive effect of stock options is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes any proceeds that could be obtained upon the exercise of stock options
or vesting of stock awards would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period. The assumed proceeds include the purchase price
the grantee pays and the unrecognized compensation expense at the end of each period. For periods where we recognize a net loss, any unvested award would have
an anti-dilutive impact to our earnings per share calculation.

Share Repurchases
Repurchases of shares of common stock are made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other
factors. The cost of share repurchases is allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings based on the amount of additional paid-in capital at the
time of the share repurchase.
Defined Benefit Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans
The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit plans are recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The funded status
is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation. The fair value of plan assets represents the current market value of
contributions made to irrevocable trusts, held for the sole benefit of participants, which are invested by the trusts. For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit
obligation represents the actuarial present value of benefits expected to be paid upon retirement. For postretirement benefit plans, the benefit obligation represents
the actuarial present value of postretirement benefits attributed to employee services already rendered. Overfunded plans, with the fair value of plan assets
exceeding the benefit obligation, are aggregated and reported as a pension asset. Underfunded plans, with the benefit obligation exceeding the fair value of plan
assets, are aggregated and reported as a pension and postretirement benefit liability.
The current portion of pension and postretirement benefit liabilities represents the actuarial present value of benefits payable within the next year exceeding
the fair value of plan assets (if funded), measured on a plan-by-plan basis. These liabilities are recognized in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Pension and postretirement benefit expense includes service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of net prior service costs
loss/credit and net actuarial loss/gain as well as the impact of any settlement or curtailment. Service cost represents the actuarial present value of participant
benefits earned in the current year. The expected return on plan assets represents the average rate of earnings expected on the funds invested or to be invested to
provide for the benefits included in the obligation. Prior service cost represents the impact of plan amendments. Net actuarial losses arise as a result of differences
between actual experience and assumptions or as a result of changes in actuarial assumptions. Both are initially recognized in “Accumulated other comprehensive
loss” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are subsequently amortized as a component of pension and postretirement benefit expense generally over the
remaining life expectancy.
The measurement of benefit obligations and pension and postretirement benefit expense is based on estimates and assumptions approved by management.
These valuations reflect the terms of the plans and use participant-specific information such as compensation, age and years of service, as well as certain
assumptions, including estimates of discount rates, expected return on plan assets, rate of compensation increases, interest rates and mortality rates.
Fair Value Measurements
We carry various assets and liabilities at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, including vehicles held for sale, investments held in Rabbi Trusts and
pension assets.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurements are
classified based on the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An
active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to
provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active;
or model-derived valuations or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use
in pricing the asset or liability.
When available, we use unadjusted quoted market prices to measure fair value and classify such measurements within Level 1. If quoted prices are not
available, fair value is based upon model-driven valuations that use current market-based or
86
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using these models are classified according to the lowest level
input or value driver that is significant to the valuation.
The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair
value due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Revenue earning equipment held for sale is measured at fair value on a
nonrecurring basis and is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Investments held in Rabbi Trusts and derivatives are carried at fair
value on a recurring basis. Investments held in Rabbi Trusts include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds. Fair values for these investments are
based on quoted prices in active markets. Refer to Note 18, "Employee Benefit Plans," for further information regarding pension assets.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic
848). This update provides optional expedients for a limited time for U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR
or another rate expected to be discontinued at the end of 2021 due to reference rate reform. The update is effective immediately and may be applied prospectively
to contracts and other transactions entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Income Taxes
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). This pronouncement enhances and
simplifies various aspects of income tax accounting guidance. Among other things, the amendment removes the year-to-date loss limitations in interim-period tax
accounting and requires entities to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws in the interim period that includes the enactment date of the new legislation.
We adopted this update in the first quarter of 2020, under the modified retrospective basis and prospective transition approaches, and it did not have a material
impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Cloud Computing Arrangements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for
Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which addresses a customer’s accounting for implementation costs
incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (CCA) that is a service contract. The new standard aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a CCA that is
a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. We adopted the new standard
prospectively on January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard modifies the measurement of
expected credit losses of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable (excluding those related to operating leases) and net investments in sales-type
leases. Among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on
historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The standard requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of
financial position as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Periods prior to the adoption date that are presented for
comparative purposes are not adjusted. We adopted this new standard as of January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows.

recognized as revenue in future periods as we provide maintenance services to our customers. Contracted not recognized revenue excludes (1) variable
consideration as it is not included in the transaction price consideration allocated at contract inception, (2) revenues from our lease component of our ChoiceLease
product and commercial rental product, (3) revenues from contracts with an original duration of one year or less, including SelectCare contracts, and (4) revenue
from SCS, DTS and other contracts where there are remaining performance obligations when we have the right to invoice but the revenue to be recognized in the
future corresponds directly with the value delivered to the customer. Contracted not recognized revenue was $2.7 billion as of December 31, 2020.
Sales Commissions
We capitalize incremental sales commissions paid as a result of obtaining ChoiceLease, SCS and DTS contracts as contract costs. Capitalized sales
commissions, including initial direct costs of our leases, was $89 million and $105 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Sales commission
expense in 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $44 million, $43 million and $37 million, respectively.

(1) Revenue earning equipment, net included vehicles under finance leases of $5 million, less accumulated depreciation of $4 million, at December 31, 2020 and $12 million, less
accumulated depreciation of $8 million, at December 31, 2019.
Total depreciation expense related to revenue earning equipment primarily used in our FMS segment was $1.9 billion, $1.8 billion and $1.3 billion in 2020,
2019 and 2018, respectively.
Policy and Accelerated Depreciation
We periodically review and adjust, as appropriate, the estimated residual values and useful lives of existing revenue earning equipment for the purposes of
recording depreciation expense. A reduction in estimated residual values or useful lives will result in an increase in depreciation expense over the remaining life of
the vehicle. Our review of the estimated residual values and useful lives of revenue earning equipment is established with a long-term view, which we refer to as
"policy depreciation," and is based on vehicle class, generally subcategories of trucks, tractors and trailers, by weight, usage and other factors. These other factors
include, but are not limited to, historical, current, and expected future market prices; expected lives of vehicles; and expected sales of used vehicles in the
wholesale and retail markets. Factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from estimates include, but are not limited to, changes in technology;
changes in supply and demand; competitor pricing; regulatory requirements; driver shortages, requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying assumption
factors. We have disciplines related to the management and maintenance of our vehicles designed to manage the risk associated with the residual values of our
revenue earning equipment.

RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
We also assess estimates of residual values of vehicles expected to be made available for sale in the near-term (generally 12 to 24 months) based on near-term
market rates and conditions and may adjust estimates of residual values for these vehicles, which we refer to as "accelerated depreciation."
The following table provides a summary of amounts that have been recorded for accelerated and policy depreciation related to our residual value estimate
changes, as well as used vehicle sales results (rounded to the closest million):

In the second half of 2019, we began to experience softening in used vehicle market conditions, which was expected to continue throughout 2020. At that
time, our inventory of used vehicles to be made available for sale was also higher than expected, which increased the volume of used vehicle sales expected to be
sold through our wholesale channels. Due to these dynamics and our updated outlook at that time, we concluded, in the third quarter of 2019, that our residual
value estimates likely exceeded the expected future values that would be realized upon the sale of power vehicles in our fleet. As a result, in the third quarter of
2019, we lowered the estimated residual values for our revenue earning equipment, primarily our power vehicles, to reflect more recent multi-year trends and our
outlook for the expected used vehicle market.
The changes in our residual value estimates, in the third quarter of 2019, resulted in accelerated depreciation of $193 million and additional policy
depreciation of $104 million. In 2019, the effect of this change in estimate decreased our net earnings and diluted earnings per share by $219 million and $4.19,
respectively. The impact of the change in estimated vehicle residual values that occurred in the third quarter of 2019 was in addition to policy depreciation of $30
million related to the estimate change effective January 1, 2019 and in addition to accelerated depreciation of $30 million that was incurred in the first half of 2019.
2020
In the first half of 2020, we performed a review of the estimated residual values of our revenue earning equipment for both accelerated and policy
depreciation primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on current and expected used vehicle market conditions. Prior to our review and the COVID-
19 pandemic, we had expected used vehicle pricing to modestly improve in the second half of 2020. However, given the anticipated negative impact of the COVID
pandemic on demand, we expected lower used vehicle pricing in the second half of 2020. As a result, in the second quarter of 2020, we further revised our residual
value estimates to reflect an expected delayed recovery in the used vehicle market beyond mid-2021 and thus extended accelerated depreciation by an additional
year to include vehicles expected to be sold through mid-2022.
In addition, in the second quarter of 2020, we also concluded that our residual value estimates likely exceeded the expected future values that would be
realized upon the sale of vehicles in our fleet for vehicles expected to be sold after mid-2022 as a result of the expected negative impacts on pricing and volumes
related to COVID-19 and our lowered longer term outlook. Therefore, we also lowered our estimated residual values primarily for our truck fleet, and to a lesser
extent, our tractor fleet. In evaluating our residual value estimates, we reviewed recent multi-year trends; management and third-party longer-term outlook for the
used vehicle market, including impacts of COVID-19 and the demand and pricing of our used vehicles; expected sales volumes through our retail and wholesale
channels; inventory levels; and other factors that management deemed necessary to appropriately reflect our expected long-term sales proceeds.
The changes in our residual value estimates in the first half of 2020 resulted in additional accelerated depreciation of $144 million and additional policy
depreciation of $53 million. This resulted in a decrease to our net earnings of $146 million and diluted earnings per share of $2.78 in 2020. In 2020, accelerated
depreciation and policy depreciation also included $92 million and $202 million, respectively, related to the residual value changes that occurred in the second half
of 2019.

Used Vehicle Sales and Valuation Adjustments
Revenue earning equipment held for sale is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Losses on vehicles held for sale for which
carrying values exceeded fair value, which we refer to as "valuation adjustments," are recognized at the time they are deemed to meet the held for sale criteria and
are presented within "Used vehicle sales, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, we stratify our fleet by
vehicle type (trucks, tractors and trailers), weight class, age and other relevant characteristics and create classes of similar assets for analysis purposes. For revenue
earning equipment held for sale, fair value was determined based upon recent market prices obtained from our own sales experience for each class of similar assets
and vehicle condition if available or third-party market pricing. In addition, we also consider expected declines in market prices when valuing the vehicles held for
sale, as well as forecasted sales channel mix (retail/wholesale).

(1) Accumulated impairment losses were $26 million and $19 million for FMS and SCS, respectively, as of both December 31, 2020 and 2019
We assess goodwill for impairment on October 1st of each year or more often if deemed necessary. In the first quarter of 2020, we performed an interim
impairment test of our FMS North America reporting unit (FMS NA) as a result of the decline in market conditions and our updated outlook as a result of the
impact of COVID-19. Our valuation of fair value for FMS NA was determined based on a discounted future cash flow model (income approach) and the
application of current market multiples for comparable publicly-traded companies (market approach). Based on our analysis, we determined that FMS NA goodwill
was not impaired as of March 31, 2020. The estimated fair value of the FMS NA reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 5% as of March 31,
2020. On October 1, 2020, we completed our annual goodwill impairment test for all of our reporting units. For all reporting units, including FMS NA, we
conducted a qualitative analysis based on market conditions, business performance and our stock price. Based on this analysis, we determined that the fair values of
our reporting units more likely than not exceeded their respective carrying values.
In the event the financial performance of FMS NA does not meet our expectations in the future; we experience future prolonged market downturns, including
in the used vehicle market or a sustained decline in our stock price; worsening trends from the COVID-19 pandemic; or there are other negative revisions to key
assumptions, we may be required to perform additional impairment analyses and could be required to recognize a non-cash goodwill impairment charge. As of
December 31, 2020, there was $244 million of goodwill recorded related to FMS NA.
During the first quarter of 2018, we recorded an impairment charge of $16 million for all goodwill in the FMS Europe reporting unit. This item was reflected
within "Restructuring and other items, net" in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The Ryder trade name has been identified as having an indefinite useful life. Customer relationship intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis
over their estimated useful lives, generally 7-19 years. We recognized amortization expense associated with finite lived intangible assets of $8 million in 2020,
2019 and 2018. The future amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years related to all intangible assets that are currently reported in the Consolidated
Balance Sheets is estimated to range from $6 - $7 million per year for 2021 - 2025.

Tax Reform Impact
On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (2017 Tax Reform) was signed into law. The 2017 Tax Reform made broad and complex
changes to the U.S. tax code which have had a significant impact on our earnings. During 2018, we completed our analyses on the impact of the 2017 Tax Reform
and recorded an additional $10 million benefit for the re-measurement of our net deferred tax liability and an additional $24 million expense for the transition tax.
Deferred Income Taxes
The components of the net deferred income tax liability were as follows:
Deferred income tax assets:
Self-insurance accruals
Net operating loss carryforwards
Accrued compensation and benefits
Pension benefits
Deferred revenue
Other, including federal benefit on state tax positions
Valuation allowance
Deferred income tax liabilities:

(1) Deferred tax assets of $5 million and $17 million have been included in "Sales-type leases and other assets" as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
As of December 31, 2020, we have undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries of $813 million. We plan to continue to reinvest foreign earnings overseas
indefinitely. With respect to the undistributed earnings as of December 31, 2020, $635 million was included in the transition tax. The determination of the amount
of any additional unrecognized deferred tax liability is not practicable because of the complexities associated with the hypothetical calculations used in evaluating
whether we will maintain the indefinite reinvestment assertion.
As of December 31, 2020, we had U.S. federal tax effected net operating loss carryforwards, before unrecognized tax benefits, of $311 million, of which $8
million is expected to expire beginning 2034 and the remaining portion has an indefinite carryforward period. Various U.S. subsidiaries had state tax effected net
operating loss carryforwards, before unrecognized tax benefits and valuation allowances, of $72 million that will begin to expire as follows: $4 million in 2021,
$0.4 million in 2022, and $63 million in 2023 and thereafter. The remaining portion has an indefinite carryforward period. To the extent that we do not generate
sufficient state taxable income through viable planning strategies within the statutory carryforward periods to utilize the loss carryforwards in these states, the loss
carryforwards will expire unused. We also had foreign tax effected net operating loss carryforwards of $30 million that are available to reduce future income tax
payments in several countries, subject to varying expiration rules. We assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance to the
extent it is determined that they are not more-likely-than-not to be realized. Due to our assessment of future sources of taxable income in various states and foreign
jurisdictions, we have a cumulative valuation allowance of $41 million against our deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020. This includes a $24 million
valuation allowance against our U.K. deferred tax assets recorded in 2020, of which $13 million was a discrete item recorded in the first quarter of 2020. The
valuation allowance is subject to change in future years based on the availability of future sources of taxable income.

Debt repayments included $600 million of medium-term notes that were redeemed early in the fourth quarter that were previously set to mature in 2021. We

repay maturing debt and for general corporate purposes. If the unsecured medium-term notes are downgraded below investment grade following, or as a result of, a
change in control, the note holders can require us to repurchase all or a portion of the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of principal value plus accrued and

used to issue up to $75 million in letters of credit (there were no letters of credit outstanding against the facility as of December 31, 2020). At our option, the
interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility is based on LIBOR, prime, federal funds or local equivalent rates. The credit facility contains no provisions
limiting its availability in the event of a material adverse change to our business operations; however, the credit facility does contain standard representations and
warranties, events of default, cross-default provisions, and certain affirmative and negative covenants. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we amended our revolving
credit facility to address various administrative matters. As of December 31, 2020, there was $1.1 billion available under the credit facility.
In order to maintain availability of funding, we must maintain a ratio of debt to Consolidated Net Worth of less than or equal to 300%. Consolidated Net
Worth, as defined in the credit facility, represents shareholders' equity excluding any accumulated other comprehensive income or loss associated with our pension
and other postretirement plans. In 2020, Consolidated Net Worth was amended to also (1) exclude currency translation adjustment as reported in our consolidated
balance sheet; (2) add back the after-tax charge to shareholders' equity which resulted from our adoption of the new lease accounting standard as of December 31,
2018 (amortized quarterly to 50% of the charge over a 7 year period); and (3) add back any potential non-cash FMS North America goodwill impairment charges,
should they occur, up to a maximum amount. As of December 31, 2020, the ratio was 195%.
Our global revolving credit facility enables us to refinance short-term obligations on a long-term basis. Short-term commercial paper obligations are
classified as long-term as we have both the intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis. Starting in 2020, we have reflected all contractual maturities due
within the next twelve months in the current portion of long-term debt even though we may refinance these obligations on a long-term basis and have the ability to
do so under our revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2019, we classified $227 million of short-term commercial paper, $400 million of the current portion
of long-term debt and $201 million of short-term debt as long-term debt as we had the intent and ability to refinance the current portion of these long-term debt on
a long-term basis.
Trade Receivables Program
We have a trade receivables purchase and sale program, pursuant to which we sell certain of our domestic trade accounts receivable to a bankruptcy remote,
consolidated subsidiary of Ryder, that in turn sells, on a revolving basis, an ownership
102
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
interest in certain of these accounts receivable to a committed purchaser. The subsidiary is considered a VIE and is consolidated based on our control of the entity’s
activities. We use this program to provide additional liquidity to fund our operations, particularly when it is cost effective to do so. The costs under the program
may vary based on changes in interest rates. In February 2020, we increased the amount of maximum available proceeds from $225 million to $300 million. In
April 2020, we extended the maturity of the trade receivables program to April 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the available proceeds under the program were
$300 million. The program contains provisions restricting its availability in the event of a material adverse change to our business operations or the collectibility of
the collateralized receivables. Sales of receivables under this program are accounted for as secured borrowings based on our continuing involvement in the
transferred assets.
13. GUARANTEES
We have executed various agreements with third parties that contain standard indemnifications that may require us to indemnify a third party against losses
arising from a variety of matters, such as lease obligations, financing agreements, environmental matters, and agreements to sell business assets, if they bring a
claim against us. Normally, we are allowed to dispute the other party’s claim and our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of the amount
and/or timing of any claim. Additionally, we have entered into individual indemnification agreements with each of our independent directors, through which we
will indemnify such director acting in good faith against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities arising out of such director’s service as a director of Ryder. The
maximum amount of potential future payments under these agreements is generally unlimited.
We cannot predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under certain of these agreements, including the indemnification agreements, due to
the contingent nature of the potential obligations and the distinctive provisions that are involved in each individual agreement. Historically, such payments have not
had a material adverse effect on our business. We believe that if a loss were incurred in any of these matters, the loss would not have a material adverse impact on
our consolidated results of operations or financial position.
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding, which primarily guarantee various insurance activities as noted in
the following table:

In December 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program intended to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our
employee stock plans (the 2019 program). Under the 2019 program, we are authorized to repurchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock, the sum of which
will not exceed the number of shares issued to employees under our employee stock plans from December 1, 2019 to December 11, 2021. Share repurchases of
common stock are made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements, and other factors. We may establish
prearranged written plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the 2019 program, which allow for share repurchases during our
quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the trading plan. In the second quarter of 2020, we decided to temporarily suspend the 2019 share repurchase program due
to the impact of COVID-19; however, we recommenced the program in the fourth quarter of 2020. In 2020, we repurchased 0.6 million shares for $29 million
under the 2019 program. During 2019 and 2018, we repurchased 0.5 million and 0.4 million shares for $28 million and $31 million, respectively, under previous
share repurchase programs.

Total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to share-based compensation arrangements as of December 31, 2020 was $43 million and is
expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.1 years. The total fair value of equity awards vested during 2020, 2019 and 2018 was
$27 million, $20 million and $18 million, respectively. The total cash received from employees under all share-based employee compensation arrangements for
2020, 2019 and 2018 was $8 million, $8 million and $17 million, respectively.
Share-Based Incentive Awards
Share-based incentive awards are provided to employees under the terms of various share-based compensation plans (collectively, the Plans). The Plans are
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Awards under the Plans principally include at-the-money stock options and unvested
stock. Unvested stock awards include grants primarily of performance-based and time-vested restricted stock rights. Under the terms of our Plans, dividends on
unvested stock are not paid unless the award vests. Upon vesting, the amount of the dividends paid is equal to the aggregate dividends declared on common shares
during the period from the date of grant of the award until the date the shares underlying the award are delivered. As of December 31, 2020, there are 4.3 million
shares authorized for issuance under the Plans and 3.6 million shares remaining available for future issuance.
We also grant stock awards to non-executive members of the Board of Directors. Stock awards to new Board members do not vest until the director has
served a minimum of one year. Prior to 2018, stock awards to Board members were delivered upon separation from the Board. Beginning in 2018, each director
may elect to receive his or her stock award in the form of either (1) shares that are distributed at the time of grant or (2) restricted stock units (RSUs) which will
entitle the director to receive one share of Ryder stock for each RSU granted and are distributed upon or after separation from the Board. The fair value of the
awards is determined and fixed based on Ryder’s stock price on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense is recognized for RSUs in the year the RSUs
are granted. Ryder shares delivered upon grant have standard voting rights and rights to dividend payments. RSUs that are distributed upon or after separation from
service on the Board are eligible for non-forfeitable dividend equivalents until distribution but such RSUs have no voting rights until they are distributed.
Restricted Stock Awards
Restricted stock awards are unvested stock rights that are granted to employees and entitle the holder to shares of common stock as the award vests. Time-
vested restricted stock rights typically vest ratably over three years regardless of company performance. The fair value of the time-vested awards is determined and
fixed based on Ryder’s stock price on the date of grant.
Performance-based restricted stock rights (PBRSRs) are generally granted to executive management and include a performance-based vesting condition.
PBRSRs are awarded based on various revenue, return-based and cash flow performance targets and may include a total shareholder return (TSR) modifier for
certain members of management. The fair values of the PBRSRs that include a TSR modifier are estimated using a lattice-based option-pricing valuation model
that incorporates a Monte-Carlo simulation. The fair value of PBRSRs that do not include a TSR modifier is determined and fixed on the grant date based on our
stock price on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense for PBRSRs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based upon the
probability that the performance target will be met.
In 2018 and 2019, PBRSRs were awarded based on the spread between return on capital (ROC) and the cost of capital (COC) (ROC/COC) and strategic
revenue growth (SRG). In 2020, PBRSRs were awarded based on return of equity (ROE),
105
RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
SRG and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margin percent. These awards vest after the three-year performance period. For
these awards, up to 200% of the awards based on ROC/COC, SRG and ROE, and up to 300% of the awards based on EBITDA margin percent may be earned
based on three-year targets. Our TSR will be compared against the TSR of each of the companies in a custom peer group to determine our TSR percentile rank
versus this custom peer group. The number of PBRSRs will then be adjusted based on this rank. As of 2017, we no longer grant market-based awards.

Option Awards
Stock options are awards that allow employees to purchase shares of our stock at a fixed price in the future. Stock option awards are granted at an exercise
price equal to the market price of our stock at the time of grant. These awards, which generally vest one-third each year, are fully vested three years from the grant
date. Stock options have contractual terms of ten years.
During 2020, we did not grant any stock option awards. As of December 31, 2020, we had options outstanding of 1.9 million with a weighted-average
exercise price of $71.09 and a weighted average-remaining contractual term of 5.3 years. The number of options exercisable as of December 31, 2020 was 1.7
million. As of December 31, 2019, we had options outstanding of 2.0 million and a weighted-average exercise price of $70.92.
The aggregate intrinsic values (the difference between the close price of our stock on the last trading day of the year and the exercise price, multiplied by the
number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders if all options were exercised at year-end was not material as of December 31,
2020. This amount fluctuates based on the fair market value of our stock.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing valuation model. We use historical data to
estimate stock option forfeitures. The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used for the valuation, which are primarily based on our historical
data and trends, and the grant-date fair value of options granted:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We maintain an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) that enables eligible participants in the U.S. and Canada to purchase full or fractional shares of Ryder
common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of eligible compensation during quarterly offering periods. The price is based on the fair market value of
the stock on the last trading day of the quarter. Stock purchased under the ESPP must be held for 90 days or one year for officers. There were 7.5 million shares
authorized for issuance under the existing ESPP as of December 31, 2020. There were 2.0 million shares remaining available to be purchased in the future under
the ESPP as of December 31, 2020.

We historically sponsored several defined benefit pension plans covering most employees not covered by union-administered plans, including certain
employees in foreign countries. These plans generally provided participants with benefits based on years of service and career-average compensation levels.
In past years, we made amendments to defined benefit retirement plans that froze the retirement benefits for non-grandfathered and certain non-union
employees in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. In 2020, our Board of Directors approved further amendments to freeze our U.S. and Canadian pension plans for
substantially all of the remaining active employees in these plans effective December 31, 2020. As a result, these employees will cease accruing further benefits
under the pension plans after December 31, 2020 and will begin participating in an enhanced defined contribution plan. All retirement benefits earned by these
participants as of December 31, 2020 will be fully preserved and will be paid in accordance with the plan and legal requirements. We recognized curtailment losses
of $9 million in non-operating pension costs with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive loss as a result of the freeze of the pension plans.
During 2019, we offered approximately 4,500 vested former employees in our U.S. defined benefit plan a one-time option to receive a lump sum distribution
of their benefits. Approximately 1,700 former employees, or 38% of those that were offered the distribution, accepted the offer. In December 2019, we made
payments of approximately $80 million from the U.S. defined benefit plan assets, which resulted in a settlement of $90 million, representing approximately 4% of
our U.S. pension plan obligations. We recognized a settlement loss of $32 million of the pro-rata share of the unrecognized actuarial losses existing at the time of
the settlement.
The funding policy for these plans is to make contributions based on annual service costs plus amortization of unfunded past service liability, but not greater
than the maximum allowable contribution deductible for federal income tax purposes. We may, from time to time, make voluntary contributions to our pension
plans, which exceed the amount required by statute. The majority of the plans’ assets are invested in a master trust that, in turn, is invested primarily in
commingled funds whose investments are listed stocks and bonds. During 2020, total global pension contributions were $136 million, which included $98 million
of prefunding contributions for our U.S. pension plan for 2021 through 2023, compared with $72 million in 2019.
We also have a non-qualified supplemental pension plan covering certain U.S. employees, which provides for incremental pension payments so that the
participants' payments equal the amounts that could have been received under our qualified pension plan if it were not for limitations imposed by income tax
regulations. The accrued pension liability related to this plan was $61 million and $58 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The return on plan assets assumption reflects the weighted-average of the expected long-term rates of return for the broad categories of investments held in
the plans. The expected long-term rate of return is adjusted when there are fundamental changes in expected returns or in asset allocation strategies of the plan
assets.

Our pension investment strategy is to reduce the effects of future volatility on the fair value of our pension assets relative to our pension obligations. We
increase our allocation of high quality, longer-term fixed income securities and reduce our allocation of equity investments as the funded status of the plans
improve. The plans utilize several investment strategies, including actively and passively managed equity and fixed income strategies. The investment policy
establishes targeted allocations for each asset class that incorporate measures of asset and liability risks. Deviations between actual pension plan asset allocations
and targeted asset allocations may occur as a result of investment performance and changes in the funded status from time to time. Rebalancing of our pension plan
asset portfolios is evaluated periodically and rebalanced if actual allocations exceed an acceptable range. Equity securities primarily include investments in both
domestic and international common collective trusts and publicly traded equities. Fixed income securities primarily include domestic collective trusts and corporate
bonds. Other types of investments include private equity fund-of-funds and hedge fund-of-funds. U.S. plans account for approximately 73% of our total pension
plan assets. Equity and fixed income securities in our international plans include actively and passively managed mutual fund.
The following table presents the fair value of each major category of pension plan assets and the level of inputs used to measure fair value as of December 31,
2020 and 2019:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for our pension assets as well as the level of input used to measure fair value:
Equity securities — These investments include common and preferred stocks and index common collective trusts that track U.S. and foreign indices. The
common collective trusts were valued at the unit prices established by the funds’ sponsors based on the fair value of the assets underlying the funds. Since the units
of the funds are not actively traded, the fair value measurements have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fixed income securities — These investments include investment grade bonds of U.S. issuers from diverse industries, government issuers, index common
collective trusts that track the Barclays Aggregate Index and other fixed income investments (primarily mortgage-backed securities). Fair values for the corporate
bonds were valued using third-party pricing services. These sources determine prices utilizing market income models which factor in, where applicable,
transactions of similar assets in active markets, transactions of identical assets in infrequent markets, interest rates, bond or credit default swap spreads and
volatility. Since the corporate bonds are not actively traded, the fair value measurements have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The
common collective trusts were valued at the unit prices established by the funds’ sponsors based on the fair value of the assets underlying the funds. Since the units
of the funds are not actively traded, the fair value measurements have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The other investments are not
actively traded and fair values are estimated using bids provided by brokers, dealers or quoted prices of similar securities with similar characteristics or pricing
models. Therefore, the other investments have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Private equity and hedge funds — These investments represent limited partnership interests in private equity and hedge funds. The partnership interests are
valued by the general partners based on the underlying assets in each fund. The limited partnership interests are valued using unobservable inputs and have been
classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Multi-employer Plans
We participate in multi-employer plans that provide defined benefits to certain employees covered by collective-bargaining agreements. Such plans are
usually administered by a board of trustees comprised of the management of the participating companies and labor representatives. The net pension cost of these
plans, which is included in the pension expense table above, is equal to the annual contribution determined in accordance with the provisions of negotiated labor
contracts.
As of December 31, 2020, all plans are considered in the green zone for the most recent Pension Protection Act zone status, except for IAM National (red)
and New England Teamsters & Trucking Industry (red). Plans in the red zone are generally less than sixty-five percent funded, plans in the yellow zone are less
than eighty percent funded, and plans in the green zone are at least eighty percent funded. However, the trustees of IAM National voluntarily elected to put the fund
in red status, even though the plan is at least eighty percent funded, and implemented a rehabilitation plan in 2019.
Savings Plans
Employees who do not actively participate in pension plans and are not covered by union-administered plans are generally eligible to participate in enhanced
savings plans. These plans provide for (1) a company contribution even if employees do not make contributions for employees hired before January 1, 2016, (2) a
company match of employee contributions of eligible pay, subject to tax limits and (3) a discretionary company match. Savings plan costs totaled $40 million, $39
million and $40 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Deferred Compensation and Long-Term Compensation Plans
We have deferred compensation plans that permit eligible U.S. employees, officers and directors to defer a portion of their compensation. The deferred
compensation liability, including Ryder matching amounts and accumulated earnings, was $83 million and $71 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively.
We have established grantor trusts (Rabbi Trusts) to provide funding for benefits payable under the supplemental pension plan, deferred compensation plans
and long-term incentive compensation plans. The assets held in the trusts were $84 million and $72 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The
Rabbi Trusts’ assets consist of short-term cash investments and a managed portfolio of equity securities, including our common stock. These assets, except for the
investment in our common stock, are included in “Sales-type leases and other assets” because they are available to our general creditors in the event of insolvency.
The equity securities are classified as trading securities and stated at fair value. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, we recognized realized and unrealized investment
income gains (losses) of $11 million, $11 million and ($3) million,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
respectively, in "Miscellaneous income, net". The Rabbi Trusts’ investments in our common stock as of both December 31, 2020 and 2019 were not material.
Investments held in Rabbi Trusts are assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, all of which are considered Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The

Other Postretirement Benefits
We sponsor plans that provide retired U.S. and Canadian employees with certain healthcare and life insurance benefits. The postretirement medical plan was
closed to non-grandfathered participants in 2013. This plan requires employee contributions that vary based on years of service and include provisions that limit
our contributions. The benefit obligation was $22 million as of both December 31, 2020 and 2019. Postretirement benefit expense was not material for 2020, 2019
and 2018.
19. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Our operations involve storing and dispensing petroleum products, primarily diesel fuel, regulated under environmental protection laws. These laws require
us to eliminate or mitigate the effect of such substances on the environment. In response to these requirements, we continually upgrade our operating facilities and
implement various programs to detect and minimize contamination. In addition, we have received notices from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and
others that we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act; the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act; and similar state statutes. We may be required to share in the cost of cleanup of 22 identified disposal sites.
Our environmental expenses consist of remediation costs as well as normal recurring expenses such as licensing, testing and waste disposal fees and were not
material for any period presented. Our asset retirement obligations of $27 million and $28 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily relate
to fuel tanks to be removed.
The ultimate cost of our environmental liabilities cannot presently be projected with certainty due to the presence of several unknown factors, primarily the
level of contamination, the effectiveness of selected remediation methods, the stage of investigation at individual sites, the determination of our liability in
proportion to other responsible parties and the recoverability of such costs from third parties. Based on information presently available, we believe that the ultimate
disposition of these matters, although potentially material to the results of operations in any one year, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition or liquidity.

Restructuring and other, net — In 2020, this item primarily included expenses of $44 million associated with our ChoiceLease liability insurance
program which was discontinued in January 2020, professional fees related to the pursuit of a commercial claim and expenses related to the shutdown
of several leased locations in the North America and U.K. FMS operations. The exit of the insurance liability program is estimated to be completed in
the first quarter of 2021. In addition, we recorded severance costs of $13 million in 2020 related to actions to reduce headcount, primarily in our
North American and U.K. FMS operations. In 2019, we recognized employee termination costs related to the closure of several FMS maintenance
locations in the U.S. and Canada. We also incurred charges related to cost savings initiatives and the pursuit of a commercial claim and we
recognized income from our Singapore operations that were shut down during the second quarter of 2019. In 2018, we recognized restructuring
charges and a loss from our Singapore operations that were shut down during the second quarter of 2019 partially offset by restructuring credits from
the sale of certain U.K. facilities that were closed as part of restructuring activities. We also incurred charges in 2018 related to cost savings
initiatives and transaction costs related to the acquisitions of MXD and Metro.
ERP implementation costs — This item relates to charges in connection with the implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.
In July 2020, we went live with the first module of our ERP system for human resources.
• Gains on sale of properties — In 2020, we recorded gains on the sale of certain FMS maintenance properties in the U.S. and U.K. that were closed
related to cost reduction actions. In 2019, we recorded gains on the sale of certain SCS properties. These gains are reflected within "Miscellaneous
(income) loss, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
•
Early redemption of medium-term notes — We recognized a charge related to the early redemption of two medium term-notes in the fourth quarter of
2020. This charge is reflected within "Interest expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

21. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS
We are a party to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our continuing business operations including, but not limited
to, those relating to commercial and employment claims, environmental matters, risk management matters (e.g., vehicle liability, workers’ compensation, etc.), and
administrative assessments primarily associated with operating taxes. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be
reasonably estimated. We believe that the resolution of these claims, complaints and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial
statements.
Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information.
Although we will continue to reassess our reserves and estimates based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may
not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates. In 2020, we accrued $8 million related primarily to adverse
developments in several cases related to payments for transportation services in Brazil that was recorded in discontinued operations.
Securities Litigation Relating to Residual Value Estimates
On May 20, 2020, a putative class action on behalf of purchasers of our securities who purchased or otherwise acquired their securities between July 23,
2015 and February 13, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”), was commenced against Ryder and certain of our current and former officers in the U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of Florida, captioned Key West Policy & Fire Pension Fund v. Ryder System, Inc., et al. The complaint alleges, among other things, that
the defendants misrepresented Ryder’s depreciation policy and residual value estimates for its vehicles during the Class Period in violation of Section 10(b) and
20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks to recover, among other things, unspecified compensatory
damages and attorneys' fees and costs. On August 3, 2020, the State of Alaska, Alaska Permanent Fund, the City of Fort Lauderdale General Employees'
Retirement System, and the City of Plantation Police Officers Pension Fund were appointed lead plaintiffs. On October 5, 2020, the lead plaintiffs filed an
amended complaint. On December 4, 2020, Ryder and the other named defendants in the case filed a Motion to Dismiss the amended complaint. Briefing on the
motion to dismiss is expected to be completed March 2021.
In addition, on June 26, 2020 and August 6, 2020, two shareholder derivative complaints purportedly on behalf of Ryder were filed in the Circuit Court of
the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, against us as nominal defendant and certain of our current and former officers and our current
directors, relating to the allegations set forth in the securities class action complaint and alleging breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment. The plaintiffs,
on our behalf, are seeking an award of monetary damages and restitution to us, improvements in our corporate governance and internal procedures, and legal fees.
These derivative cases have been consolidated and stayed pending resolution of the Motion to Dismiss in the securities class action described above. On February
2, 2021, a third shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the same court asserting substantially similar claims as in the consolidated derivative action.
Also, on January 19, 2021, another shareholder derivative complaint purportedly on behalf of Ryder was filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District
of Florida against us as nominal defendant and certain of our current and former officers and directors, alleging violations of Section 10(b), Section 14(a), and
Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and breaches of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets. Also, on February 8, 2021,
another shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the same court, asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. Both complaints are
based on the allegation set forth in the securities class action complaint and seek similar relief on our behalf to that sought in the derivative complaints that were
filed in Florida state court.
We believe the claims asserted in the complaints are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.

Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based upon similar economic characteristics, products, services, customers and
delivery methods.
Our primary measurement of segment financial performance, defined as “Earnings (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes” (EBT), includes
an allocation of costs from Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes non-operating pension costs and certain other items as described in Note 20, "Other Items
Impacting Comparability." CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including finance and procurement, corporate services, human
resources, information technology, public affairs, legal, marketing and corporate communications. The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on
the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Certain
costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation.
CSS costs attributable to the business segments are predominantly allocated to FMS, SCS and DTS as follows:
• Finance, corporate services, and health and safety — allocated based upon estimated and planned resource utilization;
• Human resources — individual costs within this category are allocated under various methods, including allocation based on estimated utilization and
number of personnel supported;
•
Information technology — principally allocated based upon utilization-related metrics such as number of users or minutes of CPU time. Customer-related
project costs and expenses are allocated to the business segment responsible for the project; and
• Other — represents legal and other centralized costs and expenses including certain share-based incentive compensation costs. Expenses, where allocated,
are based primarily on the number of personnel supported.
Our FMS segment leases revenue earning equipment and provides fuel, maintenance and other ancillary services to the SCS and DTS segments. EBT related
to inter-segment equipment and services billed to SCS and DTS customers (equipment contribution) are included in both FMS and the segment that served the
customer and then eliminated upon consolidation (presented as “Eliminations”). Inter-segment EBT allocated to SCS and DTS includes earnings related to
equipment used in providing services to SCS and DTS customers.
Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity
during the periods presented. Each business segment follows the same accounting policies as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”
However, we do not record right-of-use assets or liabilities for our intercompany operating leases between FMS and SCS and DTS business segments. The
following tables

and/or continuation upon expiration of such Interest Periods in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d) Each Bank waives any right to compensation under §6.10 of the Amended Credit Agreement in connection with the

Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or which are contained in any document furnished at any time
under or in connection therewith, are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation
and warranty is already qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the Second Amendment
Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case
they are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation and warranty is already
qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect) as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing.

making of such Loan or the receipt of such payment (as the case may be). Each Bank may, prior to any transfer of any Note,
endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of the Loans evidenced thereby. The Outstanding
Amount of the Loans set forth on such Bank’s records shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing

outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan, the expiration date of the applicable Interest Period, the applicable Borrower shall give
written notice to the Administrative Agent, in the case of Domestic Loans and PR Loans, the Canadian Agent, in the case of
Canadian Loans, or the U.K. Agent, in the case of U.K. Loans, not later than 12:00 noon (local time for such Agent) of its
election pursuant to §2.8(a). Each such notice delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent,
shall specify the aggregate principal amount of applicable Loans to be borrowed or maintained as or converted to LIBOR
Rate Loans and the requested duration of the Interest Period that will be applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, and shall be
irrevocable and binding upon such Borrower. If Ryder shall fail to give the Administrative Agent, or if the Canadian
Borrowers shall fail to give the Canadian Agent, or if the U.K. Borrowers shall fail to give the U.K. Agent, or if Ryder PR
shall fail to give the Administrative Agent, notice of its or their election hereunder, together with all of the other information
required by this §2.8(b), with respect to any Loan (other than a U.K. Loan), whether at the end of an Interest Period or
otherwise, such Loan shall be deemed a Base Rate Loan. If the U.K. Borrowers shall fail to give to the U.K. Agent notice of
their election hereunder, together with all of the other information required by this §2.8(b), with respect to a U.K. Loan,
whether at the end of an Interest Period or otherwise, such Loan shall bear interest at the end of such Interest Period for an
Interest Period of seven (7) days at a rate equal to the sum of (A) the rate determined by the U.K. Agent at which Sterling,
Dollars or Euros (as the case may be) deposits are offered to it for a period of seven (7) days at approximately 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such day for an amount equal to the principal amount of such Loan plus (B) the Applicable Margin on all
LIBOR Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, or the U.K. Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly
notify the applicable Banks in writing (or by telephone confirmed in writing or by facsimile) of such election.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Borrower may specify an Interest Period with respect to the
Domestic Loans, Canadian Loans, U.K. Loans or PR Loans that would extend beyond the Maturity Date.
(d) No conversion of Loans pursuant to this §2.8 may result in (i) a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Dollars or
Euros with a principal amount less than $1,000,000 (or the Euro Equivalent thereof), (ii) a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in
Sterling with a principal amount less than £500,000 or (iii) a Canadian LIBOR Rate Loan with a principal amount less than
the Dollar Equivalent of C$3,000,000. In no event shall a Borrower have more than twenty (20) different Interest Periods for
borrowings of LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any time.
(e) Subject to the terms and conditions of §6.10 hereof, if any Bank demands compensation under §6.7(c) or (d)
with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the applicable Borrower may at any time, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior
written notice to the applicable Agent, elect to convert such LIBOR Rate Loan (other than any U.K. Loan) into a Base Rate
Loan denominated in Dollars bearing interest calculated by reference to the Domestic Base Rate or the Canadian Base Rate,
as applicable (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related LIBOR Rate Loans of the
other Banks). Thereafter, and until such time as such Bank notifies the applicable Agent that the circumstances giving rise to
the demand for compensation under §6.7(c) or (d) no longer exist, all requests for LIBOR Rate Loans (other than U.K.
Loans) from such Bank shall be deemed to be requests for Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars. Once such Bank notifies
the applicable Agent that such circumstances no longer exist, the Borrower(s) may elect that the principal amount of each
such Loan converted hereunder shall again bear interest as a LIBOR Rate Loan beginning on the first day of the next
succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related LIBOR Rate Loans of the other Banks.
§2.9. Funds for Loans. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (local time for each applicable Agent) on the proposed Drawdown Date (a) in
the case of Domestic Loans, each of the Domestic Banks will make available to the Administrative Agent, (b) in the case of
Canadian Loans, each of the Canadian Banks will make available to the Canadian Agent, (c) in the case of the U.K. Loans, each of
the U.K. Banks will make available to the U.K. Agent, or (d) in the case of PR Loans, each of the PR Banks will make available to
the Administrative Agent, in each case at such Agent’s respective Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of its
Domestic Commitment Percentage, Canadian Commitment Percentage, U.K. Commitment Percentage or PR Commitment
Percentage, as the case may be, of the amount of the requested Loan. Upon receipt from each Bank of such amount, and upon receipt
of the documents required by §11 and the borrowing certificate required under §12 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set
forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Administrative Agent will make available to Ryder the aggregate amount of such Domestic
Loans made available by the Domestic Banks (and the funds otherwise available under §2.12(c), if any), the Canadian Agent will
make available to the Canadian Borrowers the aggregate amount of such Canadian Loans made available by the Canadian Banks
(and the funds otherwise available under §2.14(c), if any), (subject to §6.15(c) and §6.15(d)) the U.K. Agent will make available to
the U.K. Borrowers the amount of such U.K. Loans made available by the U.K. Banks (and the funds otherwise available under
§2.13(c), if any) and the Administrative Agent will make available to Ryder PR the amount of such PR Loans made available by the
PR Banks in each case, not later than 3:00 p.m. (local time for such Agent). The failure or refusal of any Bank to make available to
the applicable Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Domestic Commitment Percentage of
the requested Domestic Loan, or its Canadian Commitment Percentage of the requested Canadian Loan, or its U.K. Commitment
Percentage of the requested U.K. Loan, or its PR Commitment Percentage of the requested PR Loan, as the case may be, shall not
relieve any other Bank from its several obligations hereunder to make available to the applicable Agent the amount of such Bank’s
Domestic Commitment Percentage, or Canadian Commitment
Percentage, or U.K. Commitment Percentage, or PR Commitment Percentage, as the case may be, of any requested Loan.
§2.10. Maturity of the Loans.
The Domestic Loans, Canadian Loans, U.K. Loans and PR Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the
date of the termination in full of the Total Domestic Commitment, the Total Canadian Commitment, the Total U.K. Commitment or
the Total PR Commitment, as applicable). Ryder promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata accounts of the
Domestic Banks, the Outstanding Amount of all Domestic Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date of the
termination in full of the Total Domestic Commitment). The Canadian Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay to the
Canadian Agent, for the pro rata accounts of the Canadian Banks, the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Loans outstanding on the
Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the Total Canadian Commitment). The U.K. Borrowers jointly
and severally promise to pay to the U.K. Agent, for the pro rata accounts of the U.K. Banks, the Outstanding Amount of all U.K.
Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the Total U.K. Commitment). Ryder
PR promises to pay the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata accounts of the PR Banks, the Outstanding Amount of all PR Loans
outstanding on the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the Total PR Commitment). All such
payments shall be made together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, the accrued and unpaid Domestic Facility Fee,
Canadian Facility Fee, U.K. Facility Fee and the PR Facility Fee with respect thereto, and any other fees and other amounts owing
hereunder.
§2.11. Optional Prepayments or Repayments of Loans.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of §6.10, each Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to repay or
prepay the Outstanding Amount of the Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. Each Borrower
shall give the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent, as the case may be, no later than 11:00 a.m.
(local time for such Agent) one (1) Business Day (or, in the case of U.K. Loans, two (2) Business Days) prior to the proposed
date of prepayment or repayment, written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) of any proposed prepayment or
repayment pursuant to this §2.11, specifying the proposed date of prepayment or repayment of the Loans and the principal
amount to be paid and, if LIBOR Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Domestic Bank, the Canadian Agent shall promptly notify each Canadian Bank, the U.K.
Agent shall promptly notify each U.K. Bank and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each PR Bank, by written
notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) of such notice of payment and of the amount of such Bank’s pro rata share
of such prepayment. If such notice is given by any Borrower(s), such Borrower(s) shall make such prepayment and the
payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a LIBOR
Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required
pursuant to §6.10. Each
such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans of the applicable Banks in accordance with their respective pro rata share.
(b) The applicable Borrower(s) may, upon notice to the applicable Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
at any time or from time to time, repay or prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided
that (i) such notice must be received by the applicable Swing Line Lender and, if different, the applicable Agent not later than
11:00 a.m. (local time for such Swing Line Lender) on the date of the prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date
and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower(s), such Borrower(s) shall make such prepayment and
the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.
(c) If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceeds the Total Commitment then in effect, the applicable
Borrowers shall immediately prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to
such excess; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant
to this §2.11(c) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total Outstandings exceeds the Total Commitment then
in effect.
§2.12. The Domestic Swing Line.
(a) The Domestic Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, upon notice by Ryder
to the Domestic Swing Line Lenders in accordance with this §2.12, each of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders severally (and
not jointly) agrees to make loans directly to Ryder (the “Domestic Swing Line Loans”) in Dollars in an amount equal to its
Domestic Swing Line Commitment Percentage of such Domestic Swing Line Loans on any Business Day during the
Availability Period; provided that (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Domestic Swing Line Loans shall not, at any time
and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed the Total Domestic Swing Line Commitment, and (ii) the
Outstanding Amount of the Domestic Swing Line Loans owed to a Domestic Swing Line Lender shall not, at any time and
after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed such Domestic Swing Line Lender’s Domestic Swing Line Commitment.
Each Domestic Swing Line Loan shall be in a minimum amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement and in addition to the limit set forth above, at no time shall the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Domestic Swing Line Loans exceed the remainder of (A) the Total Domestic
Commitment then in effect minus (B) the sum of (1) the Outstanding Amount of all Domestic Loans at such time, plus (2) the
Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations at such time; provided, that Ryder shall not use the proceeds of any Domestic Swing
Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Domestic Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other
terms and conditions hereof, Ryder may borrow under this §2.12, prepay or repay under §2.11, and reborrow under this
§2.12. Each Domestic Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Domestic Swing Line
Loan, each Domestic Bank shall be deemed
to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from each Domestic Swing Line Lender a risk
participation in such Domestic Swing Line Loan made by such Domestic Swing Line Lender in an amount equal to the
product of such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Domestic Swing Line Loan
made by such Domestic Swing Line Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders
shall be under any obligation to advance any Domestic Swing Line Loan if any Bank is at such time a Defaulting Bank unless
Cash Collateral is provided to the Domestic Swing Line Lenders as set forth in §2.15. Any Cash Collateral provided under
this Section shall be held and released pursuant to the terms and provisions of such §2.15.
(b) Notice of Borrowing. When Ryder desires the Domestic Swing Line Lenders to make a Domestic Swing Line
Loan, it shall send to the Domestic Swing Line Lenders and the Administrative Agent written notice appropriately completed
and signed by a Responsible Officer of Ryder in the form of Exhibit G-1 hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in a writing
in the form of Exhibit G-1 hereto) or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form
on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent) of each
Domestic Swing Line Loan requested hereunder (a “Domestic Swing Line Loan Request”) not later than 2:00 p.m. on the
proposed Drawdown Date of any Domestic Swing Line Loan. Each such Domestic Swing Line Loan Request shall set forth
the principal amount of the proposed Domestic Swing Line Loan and the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating to such
Domestic Swing Line Loan, which shall in no event be later than the Maturity Date. Each Domestic Swing Line Loan
Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Ryder and shall obligate Ryder to borrow the Domestic Swing Line Loan from
the Domestic Swing Line Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date thereof. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
set forth in this Agreement, on the proposed Drawdown Date each of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders shall make its
Domestic Swing Line Commitment Percentage of the requested Domestic Swing Line Loan available to Ryder no later than
3:00 p.m. on the proposed Drawdown Date by crediting the amount of the Domestic Swing Line Loan to the account
specified by Ryder; provided that neither Domestic Swing Line Lender shall advance any Domestic Swing Line Loans after it
has received notice from any Bank that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and stating that no new Domestic Swing
Line Loans are to be made until such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement.
(c) Automatic Domestic Base Rate Loan Request. In the event that any Domestic Swing Line Loan Request for a
Domestic Swing Line Loan causes the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Domestic Swing Line Loans to exceed $25,000,000
at any time, concurrently with such Domestic Swing Line Loan Request, Ryder shall also submit to the Administrative Agent
a Domestic Loan Request for a Domestic Base Rate Loan to be made on the next Business Day in a principal amount equal to
the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Domestic Swing Line Loans (provided that if Ryder shall fail to submit such Domestic
Loan Request, the parties agree that Ryder shall be deemed to
make, and Ryder hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to distribute to the Banks, a concurrent request for a Domestic
Base Rate Loan to be made on the next Business Day in a principal amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
Domestic Swing Line Loans), and the proceeds of such Domestic Base Rate Loan shall be applied as set forth in §2.12(e);
provided that (i) the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of the Domestic Loans, plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C
Obligations, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed the Total Domestic Commitment,
(ii) the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of the Domestic Loans owed to a Domestic Bank, plus (B) the aggregate amount
of such Domestic Bank’s participation in L/C Obligations, plus (C) the aggregate amount of such Domestic Bank’s
participation in Domestic Swing Line Loans, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed
such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Commitment, and (iii) the Total Outstandings shall not, at any time and after giving effect
to all amounts requested, exceed the Total Commitment.
(d) Interest on Domestic Swing Line Loans. Each Domestic Swing Line Loan shall be a Domestic Base Rate Loan
and, except as otherwise provided in §6.11 hereof, shall bear interest from the Drawdown Date thereof until repaid in full at
the rate per annum equal to the Domestic Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin on all Swing Line Loans, which shall be paid
on each Interest Payment Date for Domestic Base Rate Loans and on the applicable Swing Line Loan Maturity Date (or, if
earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the Total Domestic Commitment).
(e) Repayment of Domestic Swing Line Loans. Ryder shall repay each outstanding Domestic Swing Line Loan
directly to each Domestic Swing Line Lender on or prior to the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating thereto (or, if earlier,
on the date of the termination in full of the Total Domestic Commitment); provided that Ryder shall repay the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of all Domestic Swing Line Loans at any time such Outstanding Amount is in excess of $25,000,000
with the proceeds of the Domestic Base Rate Loan requested under §2.12(c), and Ryder agrees to apply, and Ryder hereby
authorizes the Domestic Swing Line Lenders to apply, such proceeds to the outstanding Domestic Swing Line Loans. Upon
notice by any Domestic Swing Line Lenders to the Administrative Agent on any Business Day (i) following the Swing Line
Loan Maturity Date relating to each Domestic Swing Line Loan, or (ii) at the option of such Domestic Swing Line Lenders,
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of the Domestic Banks hereby agrees to make Domestic Loans to Ryder
constituting Domestic Base Rate Loans, on the next succeeding Business Day following such notice, in an amount equal to
such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Domestic Swing Line Loans
made by such Domestic Swing Line Lender (and the Domestic Swing Line Lenders may apply Cash Collateral available for
such purpose with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan). The proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by the Domestic
Swing Line Lenders to repay the Domestic Swing Line Loans made by such Domestic Swing Line Lenders, and Ryder
hereby authorizes such application. Each Domestic Bank hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to make
such Domestic Loans upon one Business Days’ notice as set forth above,
notwithstanding (A) that the amount of such Domestic Loan may not comply with the applicable minimums set forth herein,
(B) the failure of Ryder to meet the applicable conditions set forth in §11 or §12 hereof, (C) the occurrence or continuance of
a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, (D) the Total Domestic Commitment in effect at such time, (E) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Domestic Bank may have against the Domestic Swing Line
Lenders, Ryder or any other Person for any reason whatsoever or (F) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing. In the event that it is impracticable for such Domestic Loan to be made for any reason on the
date otherwise required above, then each Domestic Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date such
Domestic Loan would have been made, but adjusted for any payments received from Ryder on or after such date and prior to
such purchase) from each of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders, and each of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders shall sell to
each Domestic Bank, such participations in its Domestic Swing Line Loans (including all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon) outstanding as shall be necessary to cause the Domestic Banks to share in such Domestic Swing Line Loans pro rata
based on their respective Domestic Commitment Percentages (without regard to any termination of the Total Domestic
Commitment hereunder) by making available to each of the Domestic Swing Line Lenders (which may be through the
Administrative Agent) an amount equal to such Bank’s participation in such Domestic Swing Line Loans. No such funding
of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Ryder to repay Domestic Swing Line Loans, together
with interest as provided herein. Any repayment by any Domestic Bank to the Domestic Swing Line Lenders may be done in
consultation with the Administrative Agent.
Until a Bank funds its Domestic Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this §2.12(e) to refinance such Bank’s
Domestic Commitment Percentage of any Domestic Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Domestic Swing Line Loan
shall be solely for the account of the relevant Domestic Swing Line Lenders. Each Domestic Swing Line Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing Ryder for interest on its Domestic Swing Line Loans. Ryder shall make all payments of principal
and interest in respect of the Domestic Swing Line Loans directly to the applicable Domestic Swing Line Lenders (who shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such payment).
If any Domestic Bank fails to make available to the Domestic Swing Line Lenders any amount required to be paid by such
Domestic Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §2.12(e), the Domestic Swing Line Lenders shall be entitled to
recover from such Domestic Bank, on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment
is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Domestic Swing Line Lenders at a rate per
annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees
customarily charged by such Domestic Swing Line Lenders in connection with the foregoing. If such Domestic Bank pays
such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid (less all such aforementioned interest and fees incurred
by such Domestic Bank as a result of its failure to pay the required amounts to the applicable
Domestic Swing Line Lenders) shall constitute such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Base Rate Loan included in the relevant
Domestic Base Rate borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Domestic Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A
certificate of a Domestic Swing Line Lender submitted to any Domestic Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this
§2.12(e) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(f) The Domestic Swing Line Notes. The obligation of Ryder to repay the Domestic Swing Line Loans made
pursuant to this Agreement and to pay interest thereon as set forth in this Agreement may be evidenced by a promissory note
of Ryder with appropriate insertions substantially in the form of Exhibit A-5 attached hereto (the “ Domestic Swing Line
Note”), dated the Closing Date and payable to the applicable Domestic Swing Line Lender in a principal amount stated to be
the lesser of (i) such Domestic Swing Line Lender’s Domestic Swing Line Commitment and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of Domestic Swing Line Loans at any time advanced by the applicable Domestic Swing Line Lender. Upon the
request of any Domestic Swing Line Lender to Ryder made through the Administrative Agent, Ryder shall execute and
deliver to such Domestic Swing Line Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Domestic Swing Line Note. Ryder
irrevocably authorizes each Domestic Swing Line Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown
Date of any Domestic Swing Line Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on the Domestic Swing Line
Note, an appropriate notation on the grid attached to such Note or such Domestic Swing Line Lender’s records reflecting the
making of such Domestic Swing Line Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The Outstanding Amount of
the Domestic Swing Line Loans set forth on such grid or such records shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount
thereof owing and unpaid to such Domestic Swing Line Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any
such amount on such Note or such records shall not limit or otherwise affect the actual amount of the obligations of Ryder
hereunder or under the Domestic Swing Line Note to make payments of principal of or interest on the Domestic Swing Line
Note when due.
(g) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after any Domestic Bank has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Domestic Swing Line
Loan, if any Domestic Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Domestic Swing Line Loan, such
Domestic Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Domestic Bank (which may be through the Administrative Agent) its pro
rata share thereof based on such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage in the same funds as those received by such
Domestic Swing Line Lender.
(ii) If any payment received by a Domestic Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Domestic
Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by such Domestic Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in
§15A (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Domestic Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each
Domestic Bank shall pay to such Domestic Swing Line Lender its pro rata share thereof based on such Bank’s Domestic
Commitment Percentage on demand of such Domestic Swing Line Lender, plus interest thereon from the date of such
demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The obligations of the
Domestic Banks under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
§2.13. The U.K. Swing Line.
(a) The U.K. Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, upon notice by the U.K.
Borrowers made to the U.K. Swing Line Lender in accordance with this §2.13, the U.K. Swing Line Lender agrees to make

Dollars, Sterling or Euros in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000 (or the Sterling Equivalent or Euro
Equivalent thereof) at any one time outstanding. Each U.K. Swing Line Loan shall be in a minimum amount equal to
£500,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent or Euro Equivalent thereof) or an integral multiple thereof. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement and in addition to the limit set forth above, at no time shall the aggregate Outstanding Amount
of all outstanding U.K. Swing Line Loans exceed the remainder of (i)(A) the Total U.K. Commitment then in effect minus
(B) the sum of (1) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Loans denominated in Dollars, plus (2) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Loans denominated in Sterling, plus (3) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all U.K.
Loans denominated in Euros, or (ii)(A) the U.K. Commitment of the U.K. Swing Line Lender then in effect minus (B) (1) the

Outstanding Amount of U.K. Loans denominated in Sterling owed to the U.K. Swing Line Lender, plus (3) the Outstanding
Amount of U.K. Loans denominated in Euros owed to the U.K. Swing Line Lender, plus (4) the Outstanding Amount of U.K.
Swing Line Loans; provided, that the U.K. Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any U.K. Swing Line Loan to refinance
any outstanding U.K. Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the
U.K. Borrowers may borrow under this §2.13, prepay or repay under §2.11, and reborrow under this §2.13. Each U.K. Swing
Line Loan shall be a U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a U.K. Swing Line Loan, each
U.K. Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the U.K. Swing Line
Lender a risk participation in such U.K. Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such U.K. Bank’s U.K.
Commitment Percentage times the amount of such U.K. Swing Line Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the U.K. Swing
Line Lender shall not be under any obligation to advance any U.K. Swing Line Loan if any Bank is at such time a Defaulting
Bank unless Cash Collateral is provided to the U.K. Swing Line Lender as set forth in §2.15. Any Cash Collateral provided
under this Section shall be held and released pursuant to the terms and provisions of such §2.15.
(b) Notice of Borrowing. When the U.K. Borrowers desire the U.K. Swing Line Lender to make a U.K. Swing Line
Loan, they shall send to the U.K. Swing Line Lender written notice appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible
Officer of the U.K. Borrowers in the form of Exhibit G-2 hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in a
writing in the form of Exhibit G-2 hereto) or such other form as may be approved by the U.K. Swing Line Lender (including
any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the U.K. Swing Line Lender) of
each U.K. Swing Line Loan requested hereunder (a “U.K. Swing Line Loan Request”) not later than (i) in the case of U.K.
Swing Line Loans denominated in Sterling, 10:00 a.m. (London time), or (ii) in the case of U.K. Swing Line Loans
denominated in Dollars or Euros, 11:00 a.m. (London time), on the proposed Drawdown Date of any U.K. Swing Line Loan.
Each such U.K. Swing Line Loan Request shall set forth the principal amount of the proposed U.K. Swing Line Loan, the
currency in which such U.K. Swing Line Loan should be made and the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating to such U.K.
Swing Line Loan, which shall in no event be later than the Maturity Date. Each U.K. Swing Line Loan Request shall be
irrevocable and binding on the U.K. Borrowers and shall obligate the U.K. Borrowers to borrow the U.K. Swing Line Loan
from the U.K. Swing Line Lender on the proposed Drawdown Date thereof. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set
forth in this Agreement, on the proposed Drawdown Date the U.K. Swing Line Lender shall make the U.K. Swing Line Loan
available to the U.K. Borrowers no later than 3:00 p.m. (London time) on the proposed Drawdown Date by crediting the
amount of the U.K. Swing Line Loan to the account specified by the U.K. Borrowers; provided that the U.K. Swing Line

Default has occurred and stating that no new U.K. Swing Line Loans are to be made until such Default or Event of Default
has been cured or waived in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Automatic LIBOR Rate Loan Request. In the event that any U.K. Swing Line Loan Request for a U.K. Swing
Line Loan causes the aggregate Outstanding Amount of U.K. Swing Line Loans to exceed $25,000,000 at any time (or the
Sterling Equivalent or Euro Equivalent thereof), concurrently with such U.K. Swing Line Loan Request, the U.K. Borrowers
shall also submit to the U.K. Agent a U.K. Loan Request for a U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as
applicable) to be made on the next Business Day in a principal amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount of U.K.
Swing Line Loans (provided that if the U.K. Borrowers fail to submit such U.K. Loan Request, the parties agree that the U.K.
Borrowers shall be deemed to make, and each of the U.K. Borrowers hereby authorizes, an automatic concurrent request for a
U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as applicable to be made on the next Business Day in a principal amount
equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount of U.K. Swing Line Loans (or the Sterling Equivalent or Euro Equivalent
thereof) with the shortest applicable Interest Period) and the proceeds of such U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate

U.K. Loans denominated in Dollars, plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of the U.K. Loans denominated in Sterling, plus (C)
the Outstanding Amount of the U.K. Loans denominated in Euros, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts

Line Loans, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed such U.K. Bank’s U.K.
Commitment, and (iii) the Total Outstandings shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed
the Total Commitment.
(d) Interest on U.K. Swing Line Loans. Each U.K. Swing Line Loan shall be a U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loan
and, except as otherwise provided in §6.11 hereof, shall bear interest from the Drawdown Date thereof until repaid in full at
the rate per annum equal to (i) the U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate for Sterling plus the Applicable Margin on all Swing Line
Loans, with respect to each U.K. Swing Line Loan denominated in Sterling, (ii) the U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate for U.S.
Dollars plus the Applicable Margin on all Swing Line Loans, with respect to each U.K. Swing Line Loan denominated in
U.S. Dollars, and (iii) the U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate for Euros plus the Applicable Margin on all Swing Line Loans, with
respect to each U.K. Swing Line Loan denominated in Euros, which shall, in each case, be paid on each Interest Payment
Date for U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans and on the applicable Swing Line Loan Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date
of the termination in full of the Total U.K. Commitment).
(e) Repayment of U.K. Swing Line Loans. The U.K. Borrowers shall repay each outstanding U.K. Swing Line Loan
on or prior to the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating thereto (or, if earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the
Total U.K. Commitment); provided that the U.K. Borrowers shall repay the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Swing
Line Loans at any time in excess of $25,000,000 with the proceeds of the U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan
(as applicable) requested under §2.13(c) (as the case may be), and each of the U.K. Borrowers hereby agrees to apply, and
each of the U.K. Borrowers hereby authorizes the U.K. Agent to apply, such proceeds to the outstanding U.K. Swing Line
Loans. Upon notice by the U.K. Swing Line Lender on any Business Day (i) following the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date
relating to each U.K. Swing Line Loan or (ii) at the option of the U.K. Swing Line Lender, after the occurrence of an Event
of Default, each of the U.K. Banks hereby agrees to make U.K. Loans to the U.K. Borrowers constituting U.K. LIBOR Rate
Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as applicable), in each case, with the shortest applicable Interest Period, on the next
succeeding Business Day following such notice, in an amount equal to such Bank’s U.K. Commitment Percentage of the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Swing Line Loans (and the U.K. Swing Line Lender may apply Cash Collateral
available for such purpose with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan). The proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by
the U.K. Swing Line Lender to repay outstanding U.K. Swing Line Loans and each of the U.K. Borrowers hereby authorizes
such application. Each U.K. Bank hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to make such U.K. Loans upon
one Business Days’ notice as set forth above, notwithstanding (A) that the amount of such U.K. Loan may not comply with
the applicable minimums set forth herein, (B) the failure of the U.K. Borrowers to meet the applicable conditions set forth in
§11 or §12 hereof, (C) the occurrence or continuance of
a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, (D) the Total U.K. Commitment in effect at such time, (E) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such U.K. Bank may have against the U.K. Swing Line Lender, the
U.K. Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever or (F) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or
not similar to any of the foregoing. In the event that it is impracticable for such U.K. Loan to be made for any reason on the
date otherwise required above, then each U.K. Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date such U.K.
Loan would have been made, but adjusted for any payments received from the U.K. Borrowers on or after such date and prior
to such purchase) from the U.K. Swing Line Lender, and the U.K. Swing Line Lender shall sell to each U.K. Bank, such
participations in the U.K. Swing Line Loans (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon) outstanding as shall be
necessary to cause the U.K. Banks to share in such U.K. Swing Line Loans pro rata based on their respective U.K.
Commitment Percentages (without regard to any termination of the Total U.K. Commitment hereunder) by making available
to the U.K. Agent an amount equal to such U.K. Bank’s participation in the U.K. Swing Line Loans. No such funding or risk
participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the U.K. Borrowers to repay U.K. Swing Line Loans,
together with interest as provided herein.
Until a Bank funds its U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as applicable) or risk participation pursuant to this
§2.13(e) to refinance such Bank’s U.K. Commitment Percentage of any U.K. Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such pro
rata share shall be solely for the account of the U.K. Swing Line Lender. The U.K. Swing Line Lender shall be responsible
for invoicing the U.K. Borrowers for interest on the U.K. Swing Line Loans. The U.K. Borrowers shall make all payments of
principal and interest in respect of the U.K. Swing Line Loans directly to the U.K. Swing Line Lender.
If any U.K. Bank fails to make available to the U.K. Agent for the account of the U.K. Swing Line Lender any amount
required to be paid by such U.K. Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §2.13(e), the U.K. Agent for the account
of the U.K. Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such U.K. Bank, on demand, such amount with interest
thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to
the U.K. Agent at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any
administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the U.K. Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such
U.K. Bank pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid (less all such aforementioned interest
and fees incurred by such U.K. Bank as a result of its failure to pay the required amounts to the U.K. Agent for the account of
the U.K. Swing Line Lender) shall constitute such U.K. Bank’s U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as
applicable) included in the relevant U.K. LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan (as applicable) borrowing or funded
participation in the relevant U.K. Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the U.K. Agent submitted to any U.K.
Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this §2.13(e) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(f) The U.K. Swing Line Note. The obligation of the U.K. Borrowers to repay the U.K. Swing Line Loans made
pursuant to this Agreement and to pay interest thereon as set forth in this Agreement may be evidenced by a promissory note
of the U.K. Borrowers with appropriate insertions substantially in the form of Exhibit A-6 attached hereto (the “U.K. Swing
Line Note”), dated the Closing Date and payable to the U.K. Swing Line Lender in a principal amount stated to be the lesser
of (i) $50,000,000, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans at any time advanced by the U.K. Swing Line
Lender and outstanding thereunder. Upon the request of the U.K. Swing Line Lender to the U.K. Borrowers, the U.K.
Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the U.K. Swing Line Lender a U.K. Swing Line Note. The U.K. Borrowers
irrevocably authorize the U.K. Swing Line Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date
of any U.K. Swing Line Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on the U.K. Swing Line Note, an
appropriate notation on the grid attached to such Note or the U.K. Swing Line Lender’s records reflecting the making of such
U.K. Swing Line Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The Outstanding Amount of the U.K. Swing Line
Loans set forth on such grid or such records shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid
to the U.K. Swing Line Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Note or such
records shall not limit or otherwise affect the actual amount of the obligations of the U.K. Borrowers hereunder or under the
U.K. Swing Line Note to make payments of principal of or interest on the U.K. Swing Line Note when due.
(g) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after any U.K. Bank has purchased and funded a risk participation in a U.K. Swing Line Loan, if the
U.K. Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such U.K. Swing Line Loan, the U.K. Swing Line Lender
(which may be through the U.K. Agent) will distribute to such U.K. Bank its pro rata share thereof based on such Bank’s
U.K. Commitment Percentage in the same funds as those received by the U.K. Swing Line Lender.
(ii) If any payment received by the U.K. Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any U.K. Swing
Line Loan is required to be returned by the U.K. Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in §15A
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the U.K. Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each U.K. Bank shall pay
to the U.K. Swing Line Lender its pro rata share thereof based on such U.K. Bank’s U.K. Commitment Percentage on
demand of the U.K. Swing Line Lender, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is
returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The obligations of the U.K. Banks under this clause shall
survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
§2.14. The Canadian Swing Line.
(a) The Canadian Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, upon notice by the
Canadian Borrowers to the Canadian Swing Line Lender in accordance with this §2.14, the Canadian Swing Line Lender
agrees to make
loans to the Canadian Borrowers (the “Canadian Swing Line Loans”) in Dollars or Canadian Dollars on any Business Day
prior to the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000 (or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent
thereof) at any one time outstanding. Each Canadian Swing Line Loan shall be in a minimum amount equal to $500,000 (or
the Canadian Dollar Equivalent thereof); provided that there shall be no minimum amount for any Canadian Swing Line
Loan which is advanced in order to fund an overdraft in the Canadian Borrowers’ Canadian Dollar accounts maintained with
Canadian Swing Line Lender (as provided in §2.14(b) hereof). Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement and
in addition to the limit set forth above, at no time shall the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Swing Line Loans
exceed (i) the Total Canadian Commitment then in effect minus (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all
Canadian Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Loans denominated in
Canadian Dollars, plus (C) the Outstanding Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances; provided, that the Canadian Borrowers shall
not use the proceeds of any Canadian Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loan. Within the
foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Canadian Borrowers may borrow under this §2.14,
prepay or repay under §2.11, and reborrow under this §2.14. Each Canadian Swing Line Loan shall be a Canadian Base Rate
Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Canadian Swing Line Loan, each Canadian Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Canadian Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such
Canadian Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Canadian Bank’s Canadian Commitment Percentage
times the amount of such Canadian Swing Line Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Canadian Swing Line Lender shall
not be under any obligation to advance any Canadian Swing Line Loan if any Bank is at such time a Defaulting Bank unless
Cash Collateral is provided to the Canadian Swing Line Lender as set forth in §2.15. Any Cash Collateral provided under this
Section shall be held and released pursuant to the terms and provisions of such §2.15.
(b) Notice of Borrowing. When the Canadian Borrowers desire the Canadian Swing Line Lender to make a
Canadian Swing Line Loan, they shall send to the Canadian Swing Line Lender written notice appropriately completed and
signed by a Responsible Officer of the Canadian Borrowers in the form of Exhibit G-3 hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed
in a writing in the form of Exhibit G-3 hereto) or such other form as may be approved by the Canadian Swing Line Lender
(including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Canadian Swing
Line Lender) of each Canadian Swing Line Loan requested hereunder (a “Canadian Swing Line Loan Request”) not later
than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Canadian Swing Line Loan. Each such Canadian
Swing Line Loan Request shall set forth the principal amount of the proposed Canadian Swing Line Loan, the currency in
which such Canadian Swing Line Loan shall be made and the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating to such Canadian
Swing Line Loan, which shall in no event be later than the Maturity Date. In addition, in the event that the Canadian
Borrowers cause an overdraft in the net position of all its Canadian Dollar
accounts maintained with the Canadian Agent, the Canadian Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Canadian Swing
Line Loan (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.14 and in §11 and §12, to the extent applicable) in the
amount of such overdraft. Each Canadian Swing Line Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Canadian
Borrowers and shall obligate the Canadian Borrowers to borrow the Canadian Swing Line Loan from the Canadian Swing
Line Lender on the proposed Drawdown Date thereof. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in this
Agreement, on the proposed Drawdown Date the Canadian Swing Line Lender shall make the Canadian Swing Line Loan
available to the Canadian Borrowers no later than 3:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the proposed Drawdown Date by crediting the
amount of the Canadian Swing Line Loan to the account specified by the Canadian Borrowers; provided that the Canadian
Swing Line Lender shall not advance any Canadian Swing Line Loans after it has received notice from any Bank that a
Default or Event of Default has occurred and stating that no new Canadian Swing Line Loans are to be made until such
Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Automatic Canadian Base Rate Loan Request. In the event that any Canadian Swing Line Loan Request for a
Canadian Swing Line Loan causes the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Canadian Swing Line Loans to exceed $25,000,000
(or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent thereof) at any time, concurrently with such Canadian Swing Line Loan Request, the
Canadian Borrowers shall also submit to the Canadian Agent a Canadian Loan Request for a Canadian Base Rate Loan to be
made on the next Business Day in a principal amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Canadian Swing Line
Loans (provided that if the Canadian Borrowers fail to submit such Canadian Loan Request, the parties agree that each of the
Canadian Borrowers shall be deemed to make, and each of the Canadian Borrowers hereby authorizes, an automatic
concurrent request for a Canadian Base Rate Loan to be made on the next Business Day in a principal amount equal to the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of Canadian Swing Line Loans (or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent thereof)), and the
proceeds of such Canadian Base Rate Loan shall be applied as set forth in §2.14(e); provided that (i) the sum of (A) the
Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Dollars, plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of the Canadian
Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, plus (C) the Outstanding Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances then outstanding, shall
not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed the Total Canadian Commitment, (ii) the sum of (A)
the Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Dollars owed to a Canadian Bank, plus (B) the Outstanding
Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars owed to such Canadian Bank, plus (C) the Outstanding
Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances purchased by such Canadian Bank, plus (D) the aggregate amount of such Canadian
Bank’s participation in Canadian Swing Line Loans, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested,
exceed such Canadian Bank’s Canadian Commitment, and (iii) the Total Outstandings shall not, at any time and after giving
effect to all amounts requested, exceed the Total Commitment.
(d) Interest on Canadian Swing Line Loans. Each Canadian Swing Line Loan shall be a Canadian Base Rate Loan
and, except as otherwise provided in §6.11 hereof, shall bear interest from the Drawdown Date thereof until repaid in full at
the rate per annum equal to the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin on all Swing Line Loans, with respect to
each Canadian Swing Line Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, and the Canadian Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin
on all Swing Line Loans with respect to each Canadian Swing Line Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, which shall be paid
on each Interest Payment Date for Canadian Base Rate Loans and on the applicable Swing Line Loan Maturity Date (or, if
earlier, on the date of the termination in full of the Total Canadian Commitment).
(e) Repayment of Canadian Swing Line Loans. The Canadian Borrowers shall repay each outstanding Canadian
Swing Line Loan on or prior to the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating thereto (or, if earlier, on the date of the
termination in full of the Total Canadian Commitment); provided that the Canadian Borrowers shall repay the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of any Canadian Swing Line Loans at any time in excess of $25,000,000 with the proceeds of the
Canadian Base Rate Loan requested under §2.14(c) (as the case may be), and each of the Canadian Borrowers agrees to apply
and each of the Canadian Borrowers hereby authorizes the Canadian Agent and the Canadian Swing Line Lender to apply,
such proceeds to the outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loans. Upon notice by the Canadian Swing Line Lender on any
Business Day (i) following the Swing Line Loan Maturity Date relating to each Canadian Swing Line Loan or (ii) at the
option of the Canadian Swing Line Lender, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of the Canadian Banks hereby
agrees to make Canadian Loans to the Canadian Borrowers constituting Canadian Base Rate Loans, on the next succeeding
Business Day following such notice, in an amount equal to such Bank’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Swing Line Loans (and the Canadian Agent may apply Cash Collateral available for
such purpose with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan). The proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by the Canadian
Agent to repay outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loans and each of the Canadian Borrowers hereby authorizes such
application. Each Canadian Bank hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to make such Canadian Loans
upon one Business Days’ notice as set forth above, notwithstanding (A) that the amount of such Canadian Loan may not
comply with the applicable minimums set forth herein, (B) the failure of the Canadian Borrowers to meet the applicable
conditions set forth in §11 or §12 hereof, (C) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default hereunder,
(D) the Total Canadian Commitment in effect at such time, (E) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Canadian Bank may have against the Canadian Swing Line Lender, the Canadian Borrowers or any other Person
for any reason whatsoever or (F) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. In
the event that it is impracticable for such Canadian Loan to be made for any reason on the date otherwise required above,
then each Canadian Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date such Canadian Loan would have been
made, but adjusted for any payments received from the Canadian Borrowers on or after such date and prior to such purchase)
from the Canadian
Swing Line Lender, and the Canadian Swing Line Lender shall sell to each Canadian Bank, such participations in the
Canadian Swing Line Loans (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon) outstanding as shall be necessary to cause the
Canadian Banks to share in such Canadian Swing Line Loans pro rata based on their respective Canadian Commitment
Percentages (without regard to any termination of the Total Canadian Commitment hereunder) by making available to the
Canadian Agent an amount equal to such Bank’s participation in the Canadian Swing Line Loans. No such funding or risk
participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Canadian Borrowers to repay Canadian Swing Line
Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
Until a Bank funds its Canadian Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this §2.14(e) to refinance such Bank’s
Canadian Commitment Percentage of any Canadian Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such pro rata share shall be solely
for the account of the Canadian Swing Line Lender. The Canadian Agent shall be responsible for invoicing the Canadian
Borrowers for interest on the Canadian Swing Line Loans. The Canadian Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and
interest in respect of the Canadian Swing Line Loans directly to the Canadian Agent.
If any Canadian Bank fails to make available to the Canadian Agent for the account of the Canadian Swing Line Lender any
amount required to be paid by such Canadian Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §2.14(e), the Canadian Agent
for the account of the Canadian Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Canadian Bank, on demand, such
amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Canadian Agent at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in
effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Canadian Agent in connection with the
foregoing. If such Canadian Bank pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid (less all such
aforementioned interest and fees incurred by such Canadian Bank as a result of its failure to pay the required amounts to the
Canadian Agent for the account of the Canadian Swing Line Lender) shall constitute such Canadian Bank’s Canadian Base
Rate Loan included in the relevant Canadian Base Rate borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Canadian Swing
Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Canadian Agent submitted to any Canadian Bank with respect to any
amounts owing under this §2.14(e) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(f) The Canadian Swing Line Note. The obligation of the Canadian Borrowers to repay the Canadian Swing Line
Loans made pursuant to this Agreement and to pay interest thereon as set forth in this Agreement may be evidenced by a
promissory note of the Canadian Borrowers with appropriate insertions substantially in the form of Exhibit A-7 attached
hereto (the “Canadian Swing Line Note”), dated the Closing Date and payable to the Canadian Swing Line Lender in a
principal amount stated to be the lesser of (i) $50,000,000, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Swing Line
Loans at any time advanced by the Canadian Swing Line Lender and outstanding thereunder. Upon the request of the
Canadian Swing Line Lender to the Canadian Borrowers, the Canadian Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Canadian
Swing Line
Lender a Canadian Swing Line Note. The Canadian Borrowers irrevocably authorize the Canadian Swing Line Lender to
make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Canadian Swing Line Loan or at the time of
receipt of any payment of principal on the Canadian Swing Line Note, an appropriate notation on the grid attached to such
Note or the Canadian Agent’s records reflecting the making of such Canadian Swing Line Loan or (as the case may be) the
receipt of such payment. The Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Swing Line Loans set forth on such grid or such records
shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Canadian Agent, but the failure to
record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Note or such records shall not limit or otherwise affect the
actual amount of the obligations of the Canadian Borrowers hereunder or under the Canadian Swing Line Note to make
payments of principal of or interest on the Canadian Swing Line Note when due.
(g) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after any Canadian Bank has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Canadian Swing Line
Loan, if the Canadian Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Canadian Swing Line Loan, the Canadian
Swing Line Lender (which may be through the Canadian Agent) will distribute to such Canadian Bank its pro rata share
thereof based on such Bank’s Canadian Commitment Percentage in the same funds as those received by the Canadian Swing
Line Lender.
(ii) If any payment received by the Canadian Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Canadian
Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Canadian Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in
§15A (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Canadian Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Canadian
Bank shall pay to the Canadian Swing Line Lender its pro rata share thereof based on such Bank’s Canadian Commitment
Percentage on demand of the Canadian Swing Line Lender, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date
such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The obligations of the Canadian Banks
under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
§2.15. Cash Collateral.
(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (i) if the
Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an
L/C Borrowing (pursuant to the terms and conditions of §4.3), or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C
Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, Ryder shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Borrowings and all L/C Obligations, as applicable. At any time that there shall exist a
Defaulting Bank, immediately upon the request of an Agent, the Issuing Bank or a Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect
to §2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Bank).
(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit)
shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The applicable Borrowers (other
than the U.K. Borrowers), and to the extent provided by any Bank, such Bank, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control
of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks (including the
Swing Line Lenders, as applicable), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts
and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing,
all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to §2.15(c). Any Cash Collateral
provided by a U.K. Borrower shall be effected pursuant to terms and documentation reasonably acceptable to the U.K. Agent.
If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other
than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than (i) the amount
any Borrower is required to provide as Cash Collateral pursuant to §2.15(a) or (ii) the applicable Fronting Exposure and other
obligations secured thereby that a Defaulting Bank is required hereunder to Cash Collateralize, the Borrowers or the relevant
Defaulting Bank, as applicable, will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, provide to the Administrative
Agent additional Cash Collateral in respect of its obligations to provide such Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to
eliminate such deficiency.
(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided
under any of this §2.15 or §2.11, §2.12, §2.13, §2.14, §2.16, §4 or §13.1 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans
shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund
participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Bank, any interest accrued on such
obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such
property as may be provided for herein.
(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or for other
obligations shall be released promptly to the provider of such Cash Collateral as follows: (i)(A) to a Defaulting Bank
following the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure so secured or elimination of the other obligations giving rise
thereto as a result of the termination of such Bank’s status as a Defaulting Bank (or, as appropriate, its assignee following
compliance with §21.2(f)) and (B) to the applicable Borrower(s) following the elimination of the applicable Fronting
Exposure so secured or elimination of the other obligations giving rise thereto, as applicable, including, without limitation, by
the termination of Defaulting Bank status of the applicable Bank (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with
§21.2(f)), or upon (1) the advance by a Defaulting Bank of its Commitment Percentage of the Base Rate Loan advanced to
refinance a Swing Line Loan (it being understood that such Defaulting Bank’s advance of such Base Rate Loan shall be
applied to refinance the relevant Swing Line Loan) or (2) the funding by a Defaulting Bank of the portion of any
participations in L/C Obligations required to be funded by such Bank, in the case of clauses (i)(B)(1) and (i)(B)(2) of this
subsection (d), together with any interest thereon, or (ii) when there exists excess Cash Collateral for the purpose for which it
was provided, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent (with such excess Cash Collateral to be released as
follows in the event that such Borrower(s) and such Defaulting Bank each provided Cash Collateral for such particular
purpose: first, to the applicable Borrower(s) up to the amount of Cash Collateral provided by such Borrower(s); and then to
the applicable Defaulting Bank); provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Borrower shall
not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this §2.15),
and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank or the applicable Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may
all mutually agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure
or other obligations.
§2.16. Defaulting Banks.
(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a
Defaulting Bank, then, until such time as that Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable
Law:
(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Bank’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in §17.
(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by an Agent
hereunder for the account of that Defaulting Bank (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity or otherwise, and including
any amounts made available to such Agent by that Defaulting Bank pursuant to §2.17 or §14, as applicable), shall be applied
at such time or times as may be determined by the Agents as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that
Defaulting Bank to the Agents hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting
Bank to the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lenders hereunder; third, if so determined by the applicable Agent(s) or
requested by the Issuing Bank or the applicable Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding
obligations of that Defaulting Bank of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as Ryder may
request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Bank
has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the applicable Agent(s); fifth, if so
determined by the applicable Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in
order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Bank to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Banks, the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by any Bank, the Issuing Bank or any Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Bank as a result of that Defaulting
Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by
the Borrowers against that Defaulting Bank as a result of that Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if
(x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting
Bank has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the
conditions set forth in §12 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C
Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Banks on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or
L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Bank. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting
Bank that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Bank or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this §2.16(a)
(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Bank, and each Bank irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii) Certain Fees. Each Defaulting Bank (A) shall be entitled to receive any Facility Fee pursuant to §2.2 for any
period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Bank only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the Outstanding Amount of the
Loans funded by it and (2) its applicable Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit and Swing Line
Loans for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to §2.12, §2.13, §2.14, §2.15, §2.16(a)(ii) or §4, as applicable (and,
with respect to all or any part of the Commitment Percentage that has not been Cash Collateralized by such Defaulting Bank,
the applicable Borrowers shall (x) instead be required to pay to each of the Issuing Bank and the applicable Swing Line
Lenders, as applicable, the amount of such fee allocable to it in accordance with the percentage of such Defaulting Bank’s
participation obligation that has been reallocated to it and (y) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that
otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Bank in respect of the Fronting Exposure arising
from that Defaulting Bank), and (B) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in §4.9.
(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a
Defaulting Bank, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Bank to acquire, refinance
or fund participations in Letters of Credit or applicable Swing Line Loans pursuant to §2.12, §2.13, §2.14 and §4, as
applicable, the “Commitment Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Bank shall be computed without giving effect to the
Commitment of that Defaulting Bank; provided, that, (A) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the
applicable Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (B) the aggregate obligation of each
non-Defaulting Bank to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and the applicable Swing Line Loans
shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Bank minus (2) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Loans of that Bank. Subject to §34, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release
of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Bank arising from that Bank having become a Defaulting Bank,
including any claim of a non-Defaulting Bank as a result of such non-Defaulting Bank’s increased exposure following such
reallocation.
(b) Defaulting Bank Cure. If Ryder, the applicable Agents, the applicable Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Bank,
if applicable, agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Bank should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting
Bank, the applicable Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date
specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any
Cash Collateral), that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Banks or
take such other actions as the applicable Agents may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded
participations in Letters of Credit and applicable Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Banks in accordance
with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to §2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Bank will cease to be a
Defaulting Bank; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by
or on behalf of the applicable Borrower while that Bank was a Defaulting Bank; provided, further, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Bank to Bank will constitute a
waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank.
§2.17. Sharing of Payments by Banks. Except to the extent set forth in §14 with regard to Defaulting Banks, if any Bank shall,
by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the
Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Bank’s receiving
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata
share thereof as provided herein, then the Bank receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the applicable Agent of such fact,
and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans
of the other Banks, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by
the Banks ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other
amounts owing them; provided that: (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the
payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored
to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any
payment made by or on behalf of any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including
the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Bank), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in
§2.15, or (C) any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or
subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrowers
or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). Each of the Borrowers consents to the foregoing and
agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Bank acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing
arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if
such Bank were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.
§2.18. Lending Offices. Without limiting the obligations of any Bank or any Borrower under §6.2 hereof, each Bank may
fund any Loan, each Canadian Bank may accept or purchase any Bankers’ Acceptance and the Issuing Bank may issue, amend,
extend or renew any Letter of
Credit, in each case, through any Lending Office (as hereinafter defined); provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the
obligation of any Borrower to repay any Obligation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As used herein, “Lending
Office” means, as to any Bank or the Issuing Bank, the office or offices of such Bank or the Issuing Bank described as such in such
Bank’s Administrative Questionnaire (or, in the case of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Questionnaire of the Bank acting as the
Issuing Bank), or such other office or offices as a Bank or the Issuing Bank may from time to time notify Ryder and the Agents,
which office may include any Affiliate of such Bank or the Issuing Bank, or any domestic or foreign branch of such Bank, the
Issuing Bank or such Affiliate. For purposes of this Agreement, each of Bank of America London and Bank of America Europe
Designated Activity Company is a designated Affiliate of Bank of America. Unless the context otherwise requires each reference to
a Bank and the Issuing Bank shall include its applicable Lending Office.
§2.19. Extension of Maturity Date.
(a) Requests for Extension. The Borrowers may, by sending an Extension Letter to the Agents (who shall promptly
notify the Banks) no earlier than sixty (60) days and no later than forty-five (45) days prior to any anniversary of the Closing
Date (each such anniversary of the Closing Date being an “Anniversary Date”), request that each Bank extend such Bank’s
then-existing Scheduled Maturity Date (with respect to each Bank, such Bank’s “Current Maturity Date”) for one year;
provided, that, no more than two Extension Letters may be submitted by the Borrowers during the term of this Agreement.
(b) Bank Elections to Extend. Each Bank, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Agents given promptly
after such Bank’s receipt of an Extension Letter and, in any event, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the applicable
Anniversary Date (the “Notice Date”), advise the Agents whether such Bank agrees to such extension (each Bank that
determines not to so extend its Scheduled Maturity Date being referred to herein as a “NonExtending Bank”); provided, that,
any Bank that does not so advise the Agents on or before the applicable Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending
Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the election of any Bank to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Bank to
so agree, and (ii) each Non-Extending Bank shall be required to maintain its original Commitments pursuant to the terms and
conditions contained herein to and including such Non-Extending Bank’s then-existing Scheduled Maturity Date (without
giving effect to such extension).
(c) Notification by Agents. The Agents shall notify the Borrowers of each Bank’s determination under §2.19(b) no
later than the date that is twenty-five (25) days prior to the applicable Anniversary Date (or, if such date is not a Business
Day, on the next preceding Business Day).
(d) Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Banks that have agreed so
to extend their Current Maturity Date (each, an “Extending Bank”) shall be more than fifty percent (50%) of the Total
Commitments in effect immediately prior to the applicable Anniversary Date, then,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in §2.19(f), effective as of the applicable Anniversary Date, the
Scheduled Maturity Date of each Extending Bank shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Current Maturity
Date of each Extending Bank (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Scheduled Maturity Date as so extended
shall be the next preceding Business Day).
(e) Replacement of Non-Extending Banks. Subject to the satisfaction of the minimum extension requirement in
§2.19(d) and the other conditions to the effectiveness of any such extension set forth in §2.19(f), the Borrowers shall have the
right (but not the obligation), in their sole discretion, to, no later than the date that occurs sixty (60) days following the
applicable Anniversary Date, elect to replace any Non-Extending Bank by causing such Non-Extending Bank to assign and
delegate, without recourse, its interests, rights and obligations as a Bank under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to one or more existing Banks or Eligible Assignees (provided that (x) the applicable existing Bank or Eligible
Assignee agrees to the extension of such Non-Extending Bank’s then-existing Scheduled Maturity Date requested by the
Borrowers in the applicable Extension Letter, and (y) all accrued interest, fees and other amounts payable to such Non-
Extending Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be paid to such Non-Extending Bank in connection
with such assignment).
(f) Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of each Extending
Bank’s then-existing Scheduled Maturity Date pursuant to this §2.19 shall not be effective with respect to any Extending
Bank unless, on the applicable Anniversary Date: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be continuing either prior to
or after giving effect thereto, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in §7.1, §7.2, §7.6(a), §7.9, §7.10, §7.14,
§7.17, §7.18 and §7A shall be true at and as of the time of the effective date of such extension, with the same effect as if
made at and as of that time (except to the extent of changes resulting from transactions contemplated or permitted by this
Agreement and changes occurring in the ordinary course of business which singly or in the aggregate are not materially
adverse to the business, assets or financial condition of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or to the
extent that such representations and warranties relate expressly and solely to an earlier date).
(g) Conflicting Provisions. This §2.19 shall supersede any provisions in §2.17 or §17 to the contrary.
§3. BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES.
§3.1. Acceptance and Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Canadian Bank severally agrees to accept
and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances drawn upon it by the Canadian Borrowers denominated in Canadian Dollars. The Canadian
Borrowers shall notify the Canadian Agent by irrevocable written notice (each a “Bankers’ Acceptance Notice”) by 11:00 a.m.
(Toronto time) within one (1) Canadian Business Day of the date of any borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances. Each
borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances shall be in a minimum aggregate face amount of C$3,000,000 or an integral multiple of
C$100,000 thereof.
The face amount of each Bankers’ Acceptance shall be C$100,000 or any integral multiple thereof. Each Bankers’ Acceptance
Notice shall be in the form of Exhibit F. In no event shall (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all outstanding
Bankers’ Acceptances exceed the remainder of (A) the Total Canadian Commitment minus (B) the sum of (1) the Outstanding
Amount of all Canadian Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, plus (2) the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Loans denominated in
Canadian Dollars, (ii) the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Dollars owed to a Canadian
Bank, plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars owed to such Canadian Bank, plus
(C) the Outstanding Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances purchased by such Canadian Bank, plus (D) the aggregate amount of such
Canadian Bank’s participation in Canadian Swing Line Loans, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed
such Canadian Bank’s Canadian Commitment, and (iii) the Total Outstandings, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts
requested, exceed the Total Commitment.
(a) Term. Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall be issued and shall mature on a Canadian Business Day. Each Bankers’
Acceptance shall have a term of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months, shall mature no later than five (5) days prior to the Maturity Date, and
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Canadian Bank which is accepting such Bankers’ Acceptance.
(b) Bankers’ Acceptances in Blank. To facilitate the acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement, the
Canadian Borrowers shall, upon execution of this Agreement and from time to time as required, provide to the Canadian
Agent bills of exchange or depository bills, in form satisfactory to the Canadian Agent, duly executed and endorsed in blank
by the Canadian Borrowers in quantities sufficient for each Canadian Bank to fulfill its obligations hereunder. In addition, the
Canadian Borrowers hereby appoint each Canadian Bank as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in handwriting or
by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such Canadian Bank, blank forms of Bankers’
Acceptances. The Canadian Borrowers recognize and agree that all Bankers’ Acceptances signed and/or endorsed on its
behalf by a Canadian Bank shall bind the Canadian Borrowers as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and
duly issued by the proper signing officers of the Canadian Borrowers. Each Canadian Bank is hereby authorized to issue such
Bankers’ Acceptances endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by such Canadian Bank; provided that
the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of Bankers’ Acceptances required to be accepted and
purchased by such Bank pursuant to clause (d) below. No Canadian Bank shall be responsible or liable for its failure to
accept a Bankers’ Acceptance if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the Canadian Borrowers
to provide duly executed and endorsed bills of exchange or depository bills to the Canadian Agent on a timely basis nor shall
any Canadian Bank or the Canadian Agent be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or
improper use of any such instrument except loss or improper use arising by reason of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Bank or the Canadian Agent, its officers, employees, agents or representatives. Each
Canadian Bank shall maintain a record with respect to Bankers’ Acceptances (i) received by it from the Canadian Agent in
blank hereunder, (ii) voided by it for any reason, (iii) accepted by it hereunder, (iv) purchased by it hereunder, and (v)
cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Canadian Bank further agrees to retain such records in the manner and for the
statutory periods provided in the various Canadian provincial or federal statutes and regulations which apply to such
Canadian Bank.
(c) Depository Bills. All Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by the Canadian Bank issued in the form of a depository
bill (as defined in the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada) (“DBNA”)) shall be deposited with the Canadian Depository
for Securities and shall be made payable to CDS & Co. In order to give effect to the foregoing, the Canadian Agent may,
acting reasonably, establish and notify the Canadian Borrowers and the other Canadian Banks of any additional procedures,
consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the requirements, of the DBNA, as are reasonably necessary to accomplish
the parties intention, including, without limitation: (i) inserting a phrase in the drafts held by the Canadian Agent to the effect
that the Bankers’ Acceptance is issued pursuant to the DBNA; (ii) removing any reference to authentication of a Bankers’
Acceptance; and (iii) removing any reference to the bearer of the depository bill.
(d) Execution of Bankers’ Acceptances. Bills of exchange or depository bills of the Canadian Borrowers to be
accepted as Bankers’ Acceptances hereunder shall be duly executed by one or more duly authorized officers on behalf of the
Canadian Borrowers. Notwithstanding that any person whose signature appears on any Bankers’ Acceptance as a signatory
for the Canadian Borrowers may no longer be an authorized signatory for the Canadian Borrowers at the date of issuance of a
Bankers’ Acceptance, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such authority had
remained in force at the time of such issuance and any such Bankers’ Acceptance so signed shall be binding on the Canadian
Borrowers. As a condition precedent to each Canadian Bank’s obligation to accept and, if applicable, purchase Bankers’
Acceptances hereunder, each of the Canadian Borrowers hereby agrees to the Power of Attorney Terms – Bankers’
Acceptances set out in Annex A hereto and hereby grants to each Canadian Bank a power of attorney on the terms set out in
such Annex A; provided that if either of the Canadian Borrowers revoke such power of attorney, the Canadian Banks shall
not be entitled to issue Bankers’ Acceptances hereunder unless the Canadian Borrowers, the Canadian Agent and all of the
Canadian Banks have agreed on amendments to this Agreement which would allow the Canadian Borrowers to again issue
Bankers’ Acceptances. Any executed drafts or orders to be used as Bankers’ Acceptances shall be held in safekeeping with
the same degree of care as if they were a Canadian Bank’s property.
(e) Issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances. Promptly following receipt of a Bankers’ Acceptance Notice, the Canadian
Agent shall so advise the Canadian Banks of the face amount of each Bankers’ Acceptance to be accepted by it and the term
thereof. The aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a Canadian Bank shall be determined by the
Canadian Agent by reference to the respective Canadian
Commitments of the Canadian Banks, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers’ Acceptance, which would otherwise be
accepted by a Canadian Bank, would not be C$100,000 or an integral multiple thereof, such face amount shall be increased
or reduced by the Canadian Agent in its sole and absolute discretion to the nearest integral multiple of C$100,000.
(f) Acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances. Each Bankers’ Acceptance to be accepted by a Canadian Bank shall be
accepted at such Bank’s office shown on Schedule 1 hereof or as otherwise designated by said Canadian Bank from time to
time.
(g) Purchase of Bankers’ Acceptances. On the relevant date of borrowing, each Canadian Bank severally agrees to
purchase from the Canadian Borrowers, at the face amount thereof discounted by the Applicable BA Discount Rate, any
Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it and provide to the Canadian Agent, for the account of the Canadian Borrowers, the BA
Discount Proceeds in respect thereof after deducting therefrom the amount of the Acceptance Fee.
(h) Sale of Bankers’ Acceptances. Each Canadian Bank may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount
or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.
(i) Waiver of Presentment and Other Conditions. The Canadian Borrowers waive presentment for payment and any
other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Canadian Bank in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and
purchased by such Canadian Bank pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of such Bankers’
Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by such Bank in its own right. The Canadian Borrowers agree not to claim or
require any days of grace or require the Canadian Agent or any Canadian Bank to claim any days of grace if any Canadian
Bank as holder sues or otherwise commences legal proceedings for the payment of any Bankers’ Acceptance.
§3.2. Refunding Bankers’ Acceptances. With respect to each Bankers’ Acceptance, the Canadian Borrowers, except during
the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, may give irrevocable telephone or written notice (or such other method of
notification as may be agreed upon between the Canadian Agent and the Canadian Borrowers) to the Canadian Agent at or before
11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) within one (1) Canadian Business Day of such maturity date of such Bankers’ Acceptance of any
Canadian Borrower’s intention to issue one or more Bankers’ Acceptances on such maturity date (each a “Refunding Bankers’
Acceptance”) to provide for the payment of such maturing Bankers’ Acceptance (it being understood that payments by the Canadian
Borrowers and fundings by the Canadian Banks in respect of each maturing Bankers’ Acceptance and each related Refunding
Bankers’ Acceptance shall be made on a net basis reflecting the difference between the face amount of such maturing Bankers’
Acceptance and the BA Discount Proceeds (net of the applicable Acceptance Fee) of such Refunding Bankers’ Acceptance). Any
funding on account of any maturing Bankers’ Acceptance must be made at or before 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the maturity date
of such Bankers’ Acceptance. If the Canadian Borrowers fail to give such notice, the Canadian
Borrowers shall be irrevocably deemed to have requested and to have been advanced a Canadian Loan bearing interest at the
Canadian Prime Rate in the face amount of such maturing Bankers’ Acceptance on the maturity date of such maturing Bankers’
Acceptance from the Canadian Bank which accepted such maturing Bankers’ Acceptance, which Loan shall thereafter bear interest
as such in accordance with the provisions hereof and otherwise shall be subject to all provisions of this Agreement applicable to
Canadian Loans until paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Canadian Borrowers shall not
prepay the Outstanding Amount of any Bankers’ Acceptance, as a whole or in part, at any time.
§3.3. Acceptance Fee. An acceptance fee (the “Acceptance Fee”) shall be payable by the Canadian Borrowers to each
Canadian Bank and each Canadian Bank shall deduct the amount of such Acceptance Fee from the BA Discount Proceeds (in the
manner specified in §3.1(g) in respect of each Bankers’ Acceptance), said fee to be calculated at a rate per annum equal to the
Applicable Acceptance Fee Rate calculated on the face amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance and computed on the basis of the
number of days in the term of such Bankers’ Acceptance and a year of 365 days.
§4. LETTERS OF CREDIT.
§4.1. Letter of Credit Commitments.
(a) Commitments to Issue Domestic Letters of Credit.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) the Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the
agreements of the Domestic Banks set forth in this §4, (A) from time to time on any Domestic Business Day during
the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account
of Ryder and/or any of its domestic Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in
each case denominated in Dollars, in accordance with §4.2, and (B) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and
(ii) the Domestic Banks severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of Ryder and/or any
of its domestic Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided, however, that after giving effect to any L/C
Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (1) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations shall not exceed
the Letter of Credit Sublimit, (2) the sum of (x) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, plus (y) the Outstanding
Amount of the Domestic Loans, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed the
Total Domestic Commitment, (3) with respect to any Domestic Bank, the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of such
Domestic Bank’s participation in L/C Obligations, plus (y) the Outstanding Amount of the Domestic Loans owed to
such Domestic Bank, plus (z) the aggregate amount of such Domestic Bank’s participation in Domestic Swing Line
Loans, shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested, exceed such Domestic Bank’s Domestic
Commitment, and (4) the Total Outstandings shall not, at any time and after giving effect to all amounts requested,
exceed the Total Commitment; provided, further, that, after giving effect to all L/C Credit
Extensions, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations of any Issuing Bank shall not exceed such
Issuing Bank’s L/C Commitment. Each request by Ryder and/or any domestic Subsidiary for the issuance or
amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by Ryder that the L/C Credit Extension so
requested complies with the conditions set forth in the provisos to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits,
and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Ryder’s and/or any of its domestic Subsidiaries’ ability to obtain
Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly Ryder and/or its domestic Subsidiaries may, during the
foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon
and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto and deemed L/C
Obligations, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.
(b) The Issuing Bank shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if:
(i) subject to §4.2(c), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after
the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Majority Banks have approved such expiry date; or
(ii) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless
all the Banks have approved such expiry date.
(c) The Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or
restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or Laws applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank
shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit
in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital
requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall
impose on the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which
the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it (it being understood that if the Issuing Bank determines not to issue a
Letter of Credit as a result of events or circumstances giving rise to unreimbursed losses, costs or expenses, the Issuing Bank
shall promptly notify Ryder and the Administrative Agent of the same, and, in any event, the Borrowers may elect to
reimburse such Issuing Bank for such loss, cost or expense, and upon the reimbursement of such loss, cost or expense, the
Issuing Bank shall issue such Letter of Credit on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth herein);
(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any international, foreign, federal, state and local statutes,
treaties, rules, guidelines, regulations, ordinances, codes and administrative or judicial precedents or authorities (including the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority) or one or more policies of the Issuing Bank;
(iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is in an
initial face amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $100,000, in the case of a standby
Letter of Credit;
(iv) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars;
(v) subject to §4.2(d), such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount
after any drawing thereunder; or
(vi) (A) a default of any Domestic Bank’s (other than the Domestic Bank which is the Issuing Bank) obligations to
fund under §4.3 exists, (B) any Domestic Bank (other than a Domestic Bank which is the Issuing Bank) has failed to fund any
portion of any participations in L/C Obligations required to be funded by it hereunder or (C) any Bank is at such time a
Defaulting Bank unless Cash Collateral is provided to the Issuing Bank as set forth in §2.15 (it being understood that any
Cash Collateral provided under this Section shall be held and released pursuant to the terms and conditions of such §2.15).
(d) The Issuing Bank shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the Issuing Bank would not be permitted at such time to
issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof or the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not
accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
(e) The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (i) the Issuing Bank would have
no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (ii) the beneficiary of
such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
(f) The Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Domestic Banks with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and
the documents associated therewith, and the Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the
Administrative Agent in §16 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with
Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully
as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in §16 included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and
(ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Bank.
§4.2. Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.
(a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of Ryder and/or its
domestic Subsidiary delivered to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit
Application,
appropriately completed and signed by a duly authorized officer of Ryder and/or its domestic Subsidiary. Such Letter of
Credit Application must be received by the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (local time
for each of the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed
issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit,
such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank: (i) the proposed
issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Domestic Business Day); (ii) the amount thereof; (iii) the
expiry date thereof; (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by such
beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case
of any drawing thereunder; and (vii) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. In the case of a request for an
amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory
to the Issuing Bank: (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a
Domestic Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may
reasonably require. Additionally, Ryder shall furnish to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent such other documents
and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the
Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.
(b) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative
Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application
from Ryder and, if not, the Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Bank
has received written notice from any Bank, any Agent or any Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date
of issuance or amendment of the relevant Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in §11 and §12
shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date,
issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Ryder and/or its domestic Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or enter into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business
practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Domestic Banks shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agree to, purchase from the Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an
amount equal to the product of such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
The Issuing Bank will provide updated information quarterly to the Domestic Banks with respect to the Letters of Credit
outstanding at such time.
(c) If Ryder and/or any of its domestic Subsidiaries so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the
Issuing Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions
(each,
an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Bank
to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such
Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in
each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the
Issuing Bank, Ryder and/or any of its domestic Subsidiaries shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing
Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Domestic Banks shall be deemed
to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an
expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any
such extension if (i) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such
time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of
§4.1(b) and (c) or otherwise), or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that
is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (A) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Banks have
elected not to permit such extension or (B) from any Agent, any Bank or any Borrower that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in §12 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to permit such
extension.
(d) If any Letter of Credit contains provisions providing for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any
drawing thereunder, (i) unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, Ryder and/or any of its domestic Subsidiaries shall not
be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank to permit such reinstatement, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and
the Domestic Banks hereby authorize and direct the Issuing Bank to permit such automatic reinstatement, whether or not a
Default then exists, unless the Issuing Bank has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the
day that is two Business Days before the reinstatement date from any Agent, the Majority Banks or any Borrower that one or
more of the applicable conditions specified in §12 is not then satisfied and directing the Issuing Bank to cease permitting
such automatic reinstatement of such Letter of Credit.
(e) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank
with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Bank will also deliver to Ryder and the Administrative Agent a
true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
§4.3. Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
(a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit,
the Issuing Bank shall notify Ryder and the Administrative Agent thereof not later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date
of drawing under such Letter of Credit. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the Domestic Business Day next
following the later of (i) the date of any payment by the
Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit (each such date of payment by the Issuing Bank, an “Honor Date”) or (ii) the date that
the Issuing Bank provides notice to Ryder of a drawing by the beneficiary under a Letter of Credit, Ryder shall reimburse the
Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing, together with interest
thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Domestic Base Rate. If Ryder fails to so reimburse the Issuing Bank by such time,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Domestic Bank of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed
drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage thereof.
In such event, Ryder shall be deemed to have requested a Domestic Base Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an
amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in §2.7 for the principal
amount of Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Total Domestic Commitment and the conditions
set forth in §12 (other than the delivery of a Domestic Loan Request). Any notice given by the Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this §4.3(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that
the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
(b) Each Domestic Bank (including the Domestic Bank acting as Issuing Bank, if applicable) shall upon any notice
pursuant to §4.3(a) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral, if applicable and to the
extent provided for this purpose) for the account of the Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent’s Head Office in an amount
equal to its Domestic Commitment Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. (local time of the
Administrative Agent) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the
provisions of §4.3(c), each Domestic Bank that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Domestic Base
Rate Loan to Ryder in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Issuing Bank.
(c) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Domestic Base Rate Loan pursuant
to this §4.3 because the conditions set forth in §12 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, Ryder shall be deemed to have
incurred from the Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced,
which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest in accordance with
§6.11. In such event, each Domestic Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank
pursuant to §4.3(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C
Advance from such Bank in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this §4.
(d) Until a Domestic Bank funds its Domestic Base Rate Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this §4.3 to reimburse
the Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Domestic Bank’s Domestic
Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the Issuing Bank.
(e) Each Domestic Bank’s obligation to make Domestic Base Rate Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the Issuing
Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this §4.3, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall
not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such
Bank may have against the Issuing Bank, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default or Event of Default; or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Domestic Bank’s obligation to make Domestic Base Rate Loans pursuant to
this §4.3 is subject to the conditions set forth in §12 (other than delivery by Ryder of a Domestic Loan Request). No such
making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Ryder to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the
amount of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
(f) If any Domestic Bank fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank
any amount required to be paid by such Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §4.3 by the time specified in
§4.3(b), the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Domestic Bank (acting through the Administrative Agent), on
demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such
payment is immediately available to the Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to
time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Issuing Bank in connection with
the foregoing. If such Domestic Bank pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid (less all
such aforementioned interest and fees incurred by such Domestic Bank as a result of its failure to pay the required amounts to
the Issuing Bank) shall constitute such Domestic Bank’s Loan included in the relevant borrowing or L/C Advance in respect
of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the Issuing Bank submitted to any Domestic Bank
(through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (f) shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.
§4.4. Repayment of Participations.
(a) At any time after the Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any
Domestic Bank such Bank’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with §4.3, if the Administrative Agent
receives for the account of the Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon
(whether directly from Ryder or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative
Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Bank its Domestic Commitment Percentage thereof (appropriately
adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Bank’s L/C Advance was
outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
(b) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank pursuant to §4.3(a) is
required to be returned in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or under any of the circumstances
described in §15A (in each case, including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Issuing Bank in its discretion), each
Domestic Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank its Domestic Commitment
Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date
such amount is returned by such Bank, at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The
obligations of such Banks under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this
Agreement.
§4.5. Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Ryder to reimburse the Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of
Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
(b) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that Ryder or any Subsidiary may have at
any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or
any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any
unrelated transaction;
(c) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss
or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(d) any payment by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that
does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Issuing Bank under such Letter
of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit,
including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or
(e) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any
other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower or any Subsidiary.
Ryder shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of
any claim of noncompliance with Ryder’s instructions or
other irregularity, Ryder will immediately notify the Issuing Bank. Ryder shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such
claim against the Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
§4.6. Role of Issuing Bank.
Each Domestic Bank and Ryder agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of
Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or
delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact or affiliates, correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Bank or Administrative
Agent shall be liable to any Domestic Bank for (a) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the
approval of the Domestic Banks or the Majority Banks, as applicable; (b) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct; or (c) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument
related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. Ryder hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any
beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to,
and shall not, preclude Ryder’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at Law or
under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact or affiliates, correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (a) through (e) of §4.5; provided,
however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, Ryder may have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the
Issuing Bank may be liable to Ryder, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary,
damages suffered by Ryder which Ryder proves were caused by the Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the
Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and
certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation, and the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning
or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part,
which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
§4.7. [Reserved.]
§4.8. Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and Ryder when a Letter of
Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (a) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each
standby Letter of Credit, and (b) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published
by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.
§4.9. Letter of Credit Fees. Ryder shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Domestic Bank in
accordance with its Domestic Commitment Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit
issued for Ryder’s or any of its domestic Subsidiaries’ account equal to the Applicable Margin on all Letter of Credit Fees times the
daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect
under such Letter of Credit); provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Bank
with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Bank has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Issuing
Bank pursuant to this §4 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Banks in accordance
with the upward adjustments in their respective Commitment Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.16(a)(iv),
with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Bank for its own account. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (a) computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears and (b) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration
Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin on all Letter of Credit Fees during any quarter, the
daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin on all Letter of Credit
Fees separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin on all Letter of Credit Fees was in effect.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists and subject to the request of the
Majority Banks (other than with respect to an Event of Default under §13.1(a) (regarding the payment of principal), §13.1(g) or
§13.1(h), in each case which shall not require the request of the Majority Banks), all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at a rate equal
to the sum of the Applicable Margin on all Letter of Credit Fees plus 2% per annum.
§4.10. Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Bank. Ryder shall pay directly to the Issuing
Bank for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for Ryder’s or any of its domestic Subsidiaries’
account at the per annum rate of 0.125% payable on the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fee shall be computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June,
September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, Ryder shall pay directly to the Issuing Bank for its own account the
customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the Issuing Bank
relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on
demand and are nonrefundable.
§4.11. Conflict with Issuing Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer
Document, the terms hereof shall control.
§4.12. Letters of Credit Issued for Domestic Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding
hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account
of, any of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries, Ryder shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings
under such Letter of Credit. Ryder hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of its domestic
Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of Ryder, and that Ryder’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such
domestic Subsidiaries.
§4.13. Acknowledgment of Multiple Issuing Banks; Letter of Credit Reports to the Administrative Agent.
(a) Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that one or more Issuing Banks may issue or amend Letters
of Credit as set forth in this §4 and each reference to Issuing Bank herein shall refer to the applicable Issuing Bank with
respect to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and, as the context may require, all Issuing Banks.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification
obligations set forth elsewhere in this §4, provide the Administrative Agent with a report setting forth the following: (i)
reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews, increases or extends a Letter of Credit, the date of
such issuance, amendment, renewal, increase or extension and the stated amount of the applicable Letters of Credit after
giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed); (ii)
on each Domestic Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes a payment pursuant to a Letter of Credit, the date and
amount of such payment; (iii) on any Domestic Business Day on which Ryder fails to reimburse a payment made pursuant to
a Letter of Credit required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such
payment; and (iv) on any other Domestic Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Additionally, for so long as any Letter of Credit issued by
such Issuing Bank is outstanding, such Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on the last Domestic Business
Day of each calendar month, a report setting forth such information with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
§5. GUARANTY.
§5.1. Guaranty of Payment. Ryder hereby irrevocably guarantees to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Banks, the full and
punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the
Obligations of Ryder PR, each of the Canadian Borrowers, each of the U.K. Borrowers and each of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries,
including, without limitation, the principal and interest accruing on the Canadian Loans, the obligations with respect to Bankers’
Acceptances, the U.K. Loans, the PR Loans, the obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit and the L/C Obligations and all such
Obligations which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay pursuant to §362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code of the
United States or any similar provision of any other bankruptcy or insolvency law and the operation of §§502(b) and 506(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any similar provision of any other bankruptcy or insolvency law (all such obligations of
Ryder PR, the Canadian Borrowers, the U.K. Borrowers and each of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries being referred to herein as the
“Guaranteed Obligations”). This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual payment of
all of the Guaranteed Obligations and not of their collectability only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that any
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank first attempt to collect any of the Guaranteed Obligations from Ryder PR, either of the
Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers, any of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries or any other Person or resort to any
collateral security or other means of obtaining payment. Should an Event of Default occur as a result of a default by Ryder PR, either
of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or any of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries in the payment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, the Obligations of Ryder hereunder with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations in default shall, upon
demand by the applicable Agent(s), become immediately due and payable to the applicable Agent(s), for the benefit of the Banks,
the Issuing Bank and the Agents, without demand or notice of any nature, all of which are expressly waived by Ryder. Payments by
Ryder hereunder may be required by the Agents on any number of occasions. All payments by Ryder hereunder shall be made to the
applicable Agent(s), in the manner and at the place of payment specified therefor in §6.1 hereof, for the account of the Banks, the
Issuing Bank and the Agents.
§5.2. Ryder’s Agreement to Pay Enforcement Costs, etc. Ryder further agrees, as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor
only, to pay to the applicable Agents, on demand, all reasonable costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses)
incurred or expended by any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty and
the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this §5.2 from the time when such amounts become
due until payment, whether before or after judgment, at the rate of interest for overdue principal set forth in §6.11 hereof; provided
that if such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable Law, then such interest shall be reduced to
such maximum permitted amount.
§5.3. Waivers by Ryder; Banks’ Freedom to Act. Ryder agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in
accordance with their respective terms, regardless of any Law or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of
such terms or the rights of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank with respect thereto. Ryder waives promptness, diligence,
presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind,
all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,
any right to require the marshalling of assets of Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers, any of
Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries or any other entity or other Person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Ryder agrees to the
provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Guaranteed Obligation and agrees
that the Guaranteed Obligations of Ryder hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by
(i) the failure of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against
Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers, any of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries or any other entity
or other person primarily or secondarily
liable with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any extensions, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of
any Guaranteed Obligation; (iii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
rescissions, waivers, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or other amendments or modifications of any of the terms or provisions
of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with
any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) the addition, substitution or release of any entity or other person primarily or secondarily
liable for any Guaranteed Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any rights which the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank may have
against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) the impairment of
any collateral securing any of the Guaranteed Obligations, including without limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights
which the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank might have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender,
release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security; or (vii) any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any
extent vary the risk of Ryder or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of Ryder (other than the indefeasible payment in full, in
cash, of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the irrevocable termination of each of the Commitments), all of which may be done
without notice to Ryder. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, Ryder hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising
by reason of (A) any “one action” or “anti-deficiency” law which would otherwise prevent the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank
from bringing any action, including any claim for a deficiency, or exercising any other right or remedy (including any right of set-
off), against Ryder before or after the Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or such Bank’s commencement or completion of any foreclosure
action, whether judicially, by exercise of power of sale or otherwise, or (B) any other Law which in any other way would otherwise
require any election of remedies by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank.
§5.4. Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations. If for any reason Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the
U.K. Borrowers, or any applicable domestic Subsidiary of Ryder has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge
any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or if any of the Guaranteed Obligations have become irrecoverable from Ryder PR, either of the
Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or such domestic Subsidiary by reason of such Person’s insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any other reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full, in cash, of all of
the Guaranteed Obligations and the irrevocable termination of each of the Commitments), to the extent permitted by Law, this
Guaranty shall nevertheless be binding on Ryder to the same extent as if Ryder at all times had been the principal obligor on all such
Guaranteed Obligations. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon
the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or any of
Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries, or for any other reason, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any
Obligation shall be immediately due and payable by Ryder.
§5.5. Subrogation; Subordination.
§5.5.1. Postponement of Rights. Until the final payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations:
Ryder shall not exercise and hereby waives any rights against Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of
the U.K. Borrowers, or any of its domestic Subsidiaries arising as a result of payment by Ryder hereunder, by way of
subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in competition with
the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank in respect of any payment hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization case or proceedings of any nature; Ryder will not claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim against
Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or any of its domestic Subsidiaries in
respect of any liability of Ryder to Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or any
such domestic Subsidiary; and Ryder waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security
which may be held by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank.
§5.5.2. Subordination. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of Ryder PR, either
of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrowers or any of Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries for money
borrowed or credit received now or hereafter owed to Ryder is hereby subordinated to the prior final payment in full
in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Ryder PR, the Canadian Borrowers, the U.K. Borrowers or such domestic Subsidiaries may pay, and
Ryder may receive, such payment. Ryder agrees that, after the occurrence of any Event of Default, Ryder will not
demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of Ryder PR, the Canadian Borrowers, the
U.K. Borrowers or Ryder’s domestic Subsidiaries to Ryder until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been
irrevocably paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Ryder shall collect, enforce or receive any
amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Guaranteed Obligations are still outstanding, such amounts shall
be collected, enforced and received by Ryder as trustee for the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents and be paid
over to the Agents, for the benefit of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents, on account of the Guaranteed
Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of Ryder under the other provisions of this Guaranty.
§5.5.3. Provisions Supplemental. The provisions of this §5.5 shall be supplemental to and not in derogation of
any rights and remedies of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents under any separate subordination agreement
which the Agents or any of them may at any time and from time to time enter into with Ryder for the benefit of the
Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents.
§5.6. Further Assurances. Ryder agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of the Agents, do all such things and
execute all such documents as the Agents may reasonably consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this Guaranty and to
perfect and preserve the
rights and powers of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents hereunder. Ryder acknowledges and confirms that it has established
its own adequate means of obtaining from Ryder PR, each of the Canadian Borrowers, each of the U.K. Borrowers and each of its
domestic Subsidiaries on a continuing basis all information desired by it concerning the financial condition of such Persons and that
it will look to such Persons and not to the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank in order for it to keep adequately informed of
changes in any of such Person’s financial condition.
§5.7. Reinstatement. Notwithstanding any termination of this Guaranty upon the final and indefeasible payment in full, in
cash, of the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, if at any time any payment made or
value received with respect to any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any
Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Ryder PR, either of the Canadian Borrowers, either of the U.K. Borrower
or any applicable domestic Subsidiary of Ryder, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made or value received.
§5.8. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Ryder, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the
benefit of the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Banks and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing sentence, each Bank may, in accordance with the provisions of §21 and subject to the limitations set forth
therein, assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or note held by it evidencing,
securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any
other entity or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the
agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to such Bank herein.
Ryder may not assign any of its Guaranteed Obligations hereunder.
§5.9. Currency of Payment. Ryder shall pay the Guaranteed Obligations in the currency in which such Obligations were
incurred by the applicable Borrower(s) or the applicable domestic Subsidiary.
§5.10. Concerning Joint and Several Liability of the U.K. Borrowers and the Canadian Borrowers.
(a) Each U.K. Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally guarantees to the U.K. Agent
and the U.K. Banks the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by
acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations of the other U.K. Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Banks, the Agents and the Issuing Bank
under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each U.K. Borrower and in consideration of the
undertakings of the other U.K. Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each U.K. Borrower agrees
that this is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual payment of all of the Obligations of
the other U.K. Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and not of their
collectability only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the U.K. Agent or any U.K. Bank first attempt to
collect any of such Obligations from such U.K. Borrower or resort to any collateral security or other means of obtaining
payment. Each U.K. Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety
but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other U.K. Borrower with respect to the payment and performance
of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this §5.10(a)), it being the intention of
the parties hereto that all of the Obligations of the U.K. Borrowers shall be the joint and several Obligations of each U.K.
Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. Each U.K. Borrower hereby waives all defenses relating to the joint
and several liability described above, including, without limitation, all suretyship defenses.
(b) Each Canadian Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally guarantees to the
Canadian Agent and the Canadian Banks the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required
pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations of the other Canadian Borrower hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Banks, the Agents and the
Issuing Bank under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Canadian Borrower and in
consideration of the undertakings of the other Canadian Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.
Each Canadian Borrower agrees that this is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual
payment of all of the Obligations of the other Canadian Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and not of
their collectability only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the Canadian Agent or any Canadian Bank
first attempt to collect any of such Obligations from such Canadian Borrower or resort to any collateral security or other
means of obtaining payment. Each Canadian Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts,
not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Canadian Borrower with respect to the
payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this
§5.10(b)), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations of the Canadian Borrowers shall be the joint
and several Obligations of each Canadian Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. Each Canadian Borrower
hereby waives all defenses relating to the joint and several liability described above, including, without limitation, all
suretyship defenses.
§6. PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL LOANS.
§6.1. Funds for Payments. All payments of principal, interest, fees (other than the Acceptance Fee) and any other amounts
due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the U.K.
Agent or any Swing Line Lender (as expressly provided hereunder), as applicable, received at such Agent’s Head Office (or, in the
case of payments made to any Swing Line Lender (as expressly provided hereunder), to the account specified by such Swing Line
Lender) in immediately
available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or other withholding of any kind
(other than any withholding resulting from the failure of a Bank to comply with the provisions of §6.2), by 12:00 noon (local time
for such Agent or Swing Line Lender) on any due date. Subject to the provisions of §28, if a payment is received by such Agent or
such Swing Line Lender at or before 2:00 p.m. (local time for such Agent or Swing Line Lender) on any Business Day, such Agent
or such Swing Line Lender shall on the same Business Day transfer in immediately available funds to (a) each of the Domestic
Banks, their pro-rata portion of such payment in accordance with their respective Domestic Commitment Percentages, in the case of
payments with respect to Domestic Loans, (b) the Domestic Swing Line Lenders in the case of payments with respect to Domestic
Swing Line Loans, (c) each of the Canadian Banks, their pro-rata portion of such payment in accordance with their respective
Canadian Commitment Percentages in the case of payments with respect to Canadian Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances, except to the
extent necessary to reflect Bankers’ Acceptances issued on a non-pro-rata basis pursuant to §3.1(e), (d) the Canadian Swing Line
Lender with respect to payments of Canadian Swing Line Loans, (e) each of the U.K. Banks, their pro-rata portion of such payment
in accordance with their respective U.K. Commitment Percentages in the case of payments with respect to the U.K. Loans, (f) the
U.K. Swing Line Lender with respect to payments of U.K. Swing Line Loans, (g) each of the PR Banks, their pro-rata portion of
such payment in accordance with their respective PR Commitment Percentages in the case of payments with respect to PR Loans, (h)
the Issuing Bank in the case of payments with respect to L/C Obligations payable to the Issuing Bank, and (i) the Domestic Banks,
their pro-rata portion of such payment in accordance with their respective applicable Commitment Percentages in the case of
payments with respect to L/C Obligations payable to such Domestic Banks. If such payment is received by such Agent after 2:00
p.m. (local time for such Agent or Swing Line Lender) on any Business Day, such transfer shall be made by such Agent or such
Swing Line Lender to the applicable Bank(s) on the next Business Day. All such payments received by any Agent or any Swing Line
Lender after 2:00 p.m. (local time for such Agent or Swing Line Lender) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business
Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day
other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected
in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
§6.2. Status of Banks; Tax Documentation.
(a) (i) Each Bank that may lawfully do so shall deliver to Ryder and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or
times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by Ryder or the Administrative Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and
such other reasonably requested information as will permit Ryder or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to
determine (A) whether or not payments made by the respective Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document are
subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Bank’s entitlement to any
available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Bank by the
respective Borrowers
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Bank’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable
jurisdictions.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States,
(A) any such Bank that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the
Code shall deliver to Ryder and the Administrative Agent executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by
Ryder on behalf of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements; and
(B) each such Foreign Bank that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption
from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall deliver to Ryder and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably
requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this
Agreement (and, to the extent that such Bank may lawfully do so thereafter, from time to time thereafter upon
the request of Ryder on behalf of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Bank is
legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as
applicable) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a
party,
(II) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,
(III) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and all required supporting
documentation,
(IV) in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not
(A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder”
of such Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign
corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), or
(V) executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming
exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit such Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(iii) Each Bank shall, upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof, promptly (A) notify Ryder and the Administrative
Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B)
take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, and as may be
reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any
jurisdiction that any Borrower or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts
payable to such Bank.
(iv) Each of the Borrowers shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent or any Bank, as the Administrative
Agent or such Bank shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date (or such later date on which it first becomes a
Borrower), and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the
Laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Borrower, as are required to be furnished by such Bank or the
Administrative Agent under such Laws in connection with any payment by the Administrative Agent or any Bank of Taxes or
Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents, with respect to such jurisdiction.
(b) The Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amounts in respect of Domestic Loans to any Foreign
Bank in respect of United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to §19 to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold
amounts with respect to United States Federal withholding tax existed on the date such Foreign Bank became a party to this
Agreement or, with respect to payments to a different lending office designated by the Foreign Bank as its applicable lending
office (a “New Lending Office”), the date such Foreign Bank designated such New Lending Office with respect to a Loan;
provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to any transferee or New Lending Office as a result of a Reallocation or
an assignment, transfer or designation made at the request of the Borrowers; and provided further, however, that this clause
(i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity payment or additional amounts any transferee, or Bank through a New Lending
Office, would be entitled to receive without regard to this clause (i) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional
amounts that the Person making the assignment or transfer to such transferee, or Bank making the designation of such New
Lending Office, would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, transfer or designation; or (ii) the
obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Foreign Bank (that could lawfully
do so) to comply with the provisions of paragraph (a) above.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Bank agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory
restrictions) to change its lending office to avoid or to minimize any amounts otherwise payable under §19 in each case solely
if such change (i) can be made in a manner so that such Bank does not incur any costs or expenses unless the Borrowers have
agreed to reimburse such Person therefor and (ii) does not result in any legal or regulatory disadvantage to such Person.
(d) If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax
imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including
those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to Ryder and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Ryder or the
Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Ryder or the Administrative Agent as may be
necessary for Ryder and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such
Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from
such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date
of this Agreement.
(e) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
(FATCA), from and after the Closing Date, each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Banks
hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within
the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
§6.3. Currency of Payment. Payments of principal or interest with respect to any Loan or obligation with respect to Bankers’
Acceptance or Letters of Credit shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was advanced or in which such Bankers’
Acceptance or such Letter of Credit was issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Acceptance Fee shall be payable solely in
Canadian Dollars and any and all other fees payable hereunder shall be payable in solely U.S. Dollars unless, with respect to any fees
payable by the Canadian Borrowers and the U.K. Borrowers, otherwise agreed to by the Canadian Agent and/or the U.K. Agent
respectively.
§6.4. Mandatory Repayments of the Loans. Except as provided in §6.16 hereof, if at any time
(a) the sum of (i) the outstanding L/C Obligations at such time, plus (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Domestic
Loans at such time, exceeds the Total Domestic Commitment then in effect, whether by reduction of the Total Domestic Commitment
or otherwise, or
(b) the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars at such time, plus
(ii) the Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars at such time, plus (iii) the Outstanding Amount
of Bankers’ Acceptances at such time, exceeds the Total Canadian Commitment then in effect, whether by reduction of the Total
Canadian Commitment or otherwise, or
(c) the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the U.K. Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars at such time, plus (ii) the
Outstanding Amount of the U.K. Loans denominated in Sterling at such time, plus (iii) the Outstanding Amount of the U.K. Loans
denominated in Euros at such time, exceeds the Total U.K. Commitment then in effect, whether by reduction of the Total U.K.
Commitment or otherwise, or
(d) the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the PR Loans at such time exceeds the Total PR Commitment then in
effect, whether by reduction of the Total PR Commitment or otherwise,
then the applicable Borrower(s) shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Administrative Agent in the case of clauses
(a) and (d) above, the Canadian Agent, in the case of clause (b) above, or the U.K. Agent, in the case of clause (c) above, (A) for
application to the Loans in the following order: first, pro rata to any Unreimbursed Amounts (including any L/C Borrowings) with
respect to the Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower (if applicable), second, pro rata to Domestic Swing Line
Loans, Canadian Swing Line Loans, and U.K. Swing Line Loans, and third, pro rata to Domestic Loans (other than Domestic Swing
Line Loans), Canadian Loans (other than Canadian Swing Line Loans), U.K. Loans (other than U.K. Swing Line Loans) and PR
Loans, subject to §6.10, or (B) if no Loans shall be outstanding, to be held pro rata by the Administrative Agent (in the case of
Letters of Credit) and the Canadian Agent (in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances) for the benefit of the Issuing Bank or the Domestic
Banks (as the case may be) in the case of Letters of Credit and/or the Canadian Banks in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances, as
applicable, as collateral security for the amount of Bankers’ Acceptances and as Cash Collateral for the Letters of Credit; provided,
however, that if the amount of Cash Collateral held by the Administrative Agent (in the case of Letters of Credit) and the Canadian
Agent (in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances) pursuant to this §6.4 exceeds the amount of Bankers’ Acceptances and the Letters of
Credit, as the case may be, from time to time, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent shall return such excess to Ryder or
the Canadian Borrowers, as applicable.
§6.5. Computations.
(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, other than calculations in respect of interest for Domestic Base
Rate Loans (which shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a 365/366-day year) and for U.K. Loans
denominated in Sterling (which shall be made on the basis of a 365-day year), all computations of interest and the Facility
Fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for
the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or
such portion is paid. Whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is
not a Business Day, the due date
for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension;
provided that for any Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan if such next succeeding Business Day falls in the next
succeeding calendar month or after the Maturity Date, it shall be deemed to end on the next preceding Business Day. Each
determination by an Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.
(b) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated
on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of
calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate
by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii)
the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of
interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.
(c) All computations of outstanding Loans, Commitment availability, mandatory prepayments, or other matters
hereunder shall be made in U.S. Dollars or Dollar Equivalents.
§6.6. Illegality; Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate, EURIBOR Rate or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate; Market Disruption.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if:
(a) (i) the introduction of, any change in, or any change in the interpretation of, any Law or regulation applicable to
any Bank or any Agent shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority having jurisdiction
thereof shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Bank or any such Agent to perform its obligations in respect of any LIBOR
Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans, or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, or (ii) if any Bank or any such Agent, as
applicable shall reasonably determine with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans or U.K. Overnight LIBOR
Rate Loans that (A) by reason of circumstances affecting any eurodollar interbank market, adequate and reasonable methods
do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, EURIBOR Rate and/or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate which would otherwise be
applicable during any Interest Period, or (B) deposits in the relevant currency and amount for the relevant Interest Period are
not available to such Bank or such Agent in any eurodollar interbank market, then such Bank or such Agent shall promptly
give notice of such determination to the Borrowers (which notice shall be conclusive and binding upon such Borrowers).
Upon such notification by such Bank or such Agent, the obligation of the Banks and such Agent to make LIBOR Rate Loans
(or Domestic Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Domestic LIBOR Rate component
of the Domestic Base Rate), EURIBOR Rate Loans, or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, shall be
suspended until the Banks or such Agent, as the case may be, determine that such circumstances no longer exist, and to the
extent permitted by Law the outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans (or Domestic Base Rate
Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Domestic LIBOR Rate component of the Domestic Base
Rate), EURIBOR Rate Loans and/or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans shall continue to bear interest at the applicable rate
based on the LIBOR Rate, EURIBOR Rate and/or U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate, respectively, until the end of the applicable
Interest Period, and thereafter (except for any U.K. Loans) shall be deemed converted to Domestic Base Rate Loans (without
reference to the Domestic LIBOR Rate component of the Domestic Base Rate) or Canadian Base Rate Loans, as applicable,
in equal principal amounts of such former LIBOR Rate Loans (or Domestic Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is
determined by reference to the Domestic LIBOR Rate component of the Domestic Base Rate);
(b) for any Interest Period with respect to any U.K. Loan, before (i) in the case of U.K. LIBOR Rate Loans
denominated in Sterling and U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, approximately 17:00 p.m. (London time) on the first
Eurodollar Business Day of such Interest Period, (ii) in the case of U.K. LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars,
approximately 17:00 p.m. (London time) two Eurodollar Business Days preceding the first day of such Interest Period, and
(iii) in the case of EURIBOR Rate Loans, approximately 11:00 a.m. (Central European time) two TARGET Settlement Days
preceding the first day of such Interest Period, the U.K. Agent receives notifications from a U.K. Bank or U.K. Banks (whose
participations in a U.K. Loan exceed 35% of that U.K. Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that U.K. Loan
from whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of the Sterling LIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate or the
U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate (as applicable) then the U.K. Cost of Funds Rate shall apply to that U.K. Loan for the relevant
Interest Period; and
(c) the U.K. Cost of Funds Rate applies pursuant to paragraph (b) above:
(i) and the U.K. Agent or Ryder so requires, the U.K. Agent and Ryder shall enter into negotiations (for a period of
not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any alternative
basis agreed pursuant to this paragraph (i) shall, with the prior consent of all Banks and Ryder, be binding on all the parties to
this Agreement;
(ii) and (A) a U.K. Bank’s Funding Rate is less than the Sterling LIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate or the U.K.
Overnight LIBOR Rate (as applicable), or (B) a U.K. Bank does not supply a quotation by the time specified in the definition
of “U.K. Cost of Funds Rate”, the cost to such U.K. Bank of funding its participation in that U.K. Loan for that Interest
Period shall be deemed, for the purposes of the definition of “U.K. Cost of Funds Rate”, to be the Sterling LIBOR Rate, the
EURIBOR Rate or the U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate (as applicable); and
(iii) the U.K. Agent shall, as soon as is practicable, notify Ryder.
§6.7. Additional Costs, Etc. Except for any matters addressed by §19, and except as otherwise reflected in the interest rate
applicable under this Agreement, if any Change in Law (which expression, as used herein, includes requests, directives, instructions
and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Bank or the Issuing
Bank by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority, whether or not having the force of law) or if any applicable
Law adopted after the date hereof shall:
(a) subject such Bank or the Issuing Bank to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of
any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Bank’s Commitment, the Loans, any Letters of
Credit or the Bankers’ Acceptances (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income, capital or profits of such Bank
or the Issuing Bank imposed by the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, or the location of its lending office or any
political subdivision thereof); or
(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on income, capital or profits of such Bank or
the Issuing Bank imposed by the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, or the location of its lending office or any
political subdivision thereof) of payments to such Bank or the Issuing Bank of the principal or of the interest on any Loans or
Letters of Credit or the Bankers’ Acceptances or any other amounts payable to such Bank or the Issuing Bank under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or
(c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this
Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements against assets
held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or reimbursement obligations owed to, or commitments of, an office
of any Bank or the Issuing Bank with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Bank’s Commitment, the
Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Bankers’ Acceptances; or
(d) impose on such Bank or the Issuing Bank any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, the Loans, the Bankers’ Acceptances, any Letters of Credit, such Bank’s Commitment, or any
class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans, such Letters of Credit or such Bank’s Commitment forms a part,
and the result of any of the foregoing is:
(i) to increase the cost to such Bank or the Issuing Bank of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or
maintaining the Loans or such Bank’s Commitment or any Letter of Credit or accepting and purchasing Bankers’
Acceptances;
(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations or other amount payable to such Bank or
the Issuing Bank hereunder on account of such Bank’s Commitment or the Loans or Bankers’ Acceptances or any Letter of
Credit; or
(iii) to require such Bank or the Issuing Bank to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable
hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of
any sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank or the Issuing Bank from the Borrowers hereunder,
then, and in each such case, the applicable Borrower will, upon demand made by such Bank or the Issuing Bank at any time and
from time to time as often as the occasion therefore may arise (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the
basis of such demand which shall be conclusive absent manifest error), pay such reasonable additional amounts as will be sufficient
to compensate such Bank or the Issuing Bank for such additional costs, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. A
Borrower shall only be obligated to pay a Bank or the Issuing Bank such additional amounts to the extent such Bank or the Issuing
Bank has allocated such additional costs, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum among its like situated customers in
good faith and on an equitable and nondiscriminatory basis.
§6.8. Capital Adequacy. Except as otherwise reflected in the interest rate applicable under this Agreement, if any Bank or the
Issuing Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy, or any
Change in Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy
of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case, whether or not having the force of law, has or
would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank or the Issuing Bank (or any corporation controlling such
Bank or the Issuing Bank) as a consequence of such Bank’s or the Issuing Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which
such Bank or the Issuing Bank (or any corporation controlling such Bank or the Issuing Bank) could have achieved but for such
adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), in each case, whether
or not having the force of law, by an amount deemed by such Bank or the Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time, within
fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank or the Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Bank or the Issuing Bank
such additional amount or amounts as will, in such Bank’s or the Issuing Bank’s reasonable determination, fairly compensate such
Bank or the Issuing Bank (or any corporation controlling such Bank or the Issuing Bank) for such reduction. A Borrower shall only
be obligated to pay a Bank or the Issuing Bank such cost increases to the extent such Bank or the Issuing Bank has allocated such
costs among its customers in good faith and on an equitable and nondiscriminatory basis.
§6.9. Certificate; Etc. A certificate setting forth the additional amounts payable pursuant to §6.7 or §6.8 and a reasonable
explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Bank or the Issuing Bank to the applicable Borrower(s), shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing. Such certificate shall contain a certification as to the matters
specified in the last sentence of §6.7 or §6.8, as the case may be. A Borrower shall only be obligated to pay additional amounts under
§6.7 or §6.8 hereof which accrue or are incurred after a Bank or the Issuing Bank has given notice to a Borrower pursuant to this
§6.9. Any additional amounts paid by a Borrower to a Bank or the Issuing Bank pursuant to §6.7 or §6.8 hereof which are
subsequently refunded to such Bank or the Issuing Bank shall be refunded to the applicable Borrower.
§6.10. Eurodollar Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the applicable Banks and the applicable Agents, and to hold
them harmless from and against any reasonable loss, cost or expense that any such Bank or such Agent may sustain or incur as a
consequence of (a) the
default by such Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans,
as and when due and payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by any Bank or such Agent to
lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans, (b) the default by such
Borrower in making a borrowing of a LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan, EURIBOR
Rate Loan or a prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan other than on an Interest Payment Date after such
Borrower has given a Domestic Loan Request, a Canadian Loan Request, a U.K. Loan Request, or a PR Loan Request, a notice
pursuant to §2.8, or a notice pursuant to §2.11, §2.12, §2.13 or §2.14, and (c) the making of any payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan or
EURIBOR Rate Loan, or the making of any conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, or
the Reallocation of any LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to §2.4 on a day that is not the last day of the applicable
Interest Period with respect thereto. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers may elect
to avoid the payment of such breakage costs by requesting that the applicable Agent apply amounts received with respect to LIBOR
Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans to Cash Collateralize such LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be,
but in no event shall a Borrower be deemed to have paid such LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans until such cash has been
paid to the applicable Agent for application to such LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans, respectively. Such loss or
reasonable expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by each Bank of (i) its cost of
obtaining the funds for the LIBOR Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan being paid, prepaid, converted, not converted, reallocated, or
not borrowed, as the case may be (based on the applicable LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR Rate, as the case may be) for the period from
the date of such payment, prepayment, conversion, or failure to borrow or convert, as the case may be, to the last day of the Interest
Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for the Loan which would have commenced on the
date of such failure to borrow) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) that would be realized by
such Bank in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid, converted, or not borrowed, converted, or prepaid for such period or Interest
Period, as the case may be, which determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
§6.11. Interest on Overdue Amounts. Overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) interest on the Loans,
including Swing Line Loans, and all other overdue amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (other
than Letter of Credit Fees and Acceptance Fees) shall bear interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum
equal to (a) the applicable rate in effect for any Base Rate Loan plus (b) the relevant Applicable Margin plus (c) 2%, until such
amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment and after as well as before the commencement of any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law); provided, however, that with respect to (i) a LIBOR Rate Loan, such rate shall be an interest rate equal to
the interest rate (including the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans) otherwise applicable to such Loan plus 2% per annum, (ii)
Letter of Credit Fees, such rate shall be a rate equal to 2% above the Letter of Credit Fees otherwise applicable thereto, and (iii) the
Acceptance Fee, such rate shall be a rate equal to the Applicable Acceptance Fee Rate plus 2% per annum. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the addition of 2% per annum on overdue amounts under this Section shall be subject in all cases (other than with respect
to an
Event of Default under §13.1(a) (regarding the payment of principal), §13.1(g) or §13.1(h), in each case which shall not require the
request of the Majority Banks), to the request of the Majority Banks.
§6.12. Interest Limitation. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or the Notes, any other Loan Document or any
other document referred to herein or therein, the maximum amount of interest which may be charged to or collected from any Person
liable hereunder or under the Notes by any Bank shall be absolutely limited to, and shall in no event exceed, the maximum amount
of interest which could lawfully be charged or collected by such Bank under applicable Laws (including, to the extent applicable, the
provisions of §5197 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, as amended, 12 U.S.C. §85, as amended and the Criminal Code
(Canada)).
§6.13. Reasonable Efforts to Mitigate. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank agrees that as promptly as practicable after it becomes
aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause it to be affected under §6.2, §6.6, §6.7 or §6.8,
such Bank or the Issuing Bank will give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower(s), with a copy to the applicable Agent and, to the
extent so requested by such Borrower(s) and not inconsistent with such Bank’s or the Issuing Bank’s internal policies, such Bank or
the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts and take such actions as are reasonably appropriate (including, without limitation,
designating a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or Affiliates) if as a result thereof the additional moneys which would otherwise be required to be
paid to such Bank or the Issuing Bank pursuant to such subsections would be materially reduced, or the illegality or other adverse
circumstances which would otherwise require a conversion of such Loans or result in the inability to make such Loans pursuant to
such sections would cease to exist, and in each case if, as determined by such Bank or the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, the
taking of such actions would not adversely affect such Loans or such Bank or otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank or the
Issuing Bank. The applicable Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection
with any such designation or assignment.
§6.14. Replacement of Banks. If any Bank or the Issuing Bank (an “Affected Bank”) (a) (i) makes demand upon a Borrower
for (or if a Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to §6.7, §6.8 or §19, (ii) is unable to make or maintain LIBOR
Rate Loans as a result of a condition described in §6.6, (iii) defaults in its obligation to make Loans, or accept and purchase Bankers’
Acceptances or reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of each draft paid under any Letter of Credit or fails to comply with the
provisions of §2.17 or §14 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Banks, where such Bank’s share of
any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the
Banks, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (iv) is otherwise a Defaulting Bank, or (b) fails to approve any
amendment, waiver or consent requested by any Borrower and such amendment, waiver or consent has received the written approval
of not less than the Majority Banks, but also requires the approval of such Affected Bank, then in each case, such Borrower may, at
its sole expense and effort, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand, notice (or the occurrence of such other event causing
such Borrower to be required to pay such compensation or causing §6.6 to be applicable), or default, as the case may be, by notice in
writing to the Agents and such Affected Bank, require such Affected Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, §21), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank,
if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that:
(A) the applicable Agent, the applicable Swing Line Lender, and, for each assignment of a Domestic Commitment
hereunder, the Issuing Bank, shall have consented to such assignment in writing (in each case, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld);
(B) such Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in §21;
(C) such Affected Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans,
L/C Advances and purchased Bankers’ Acceptances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to
it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under clause (a)(i) of this §6.14,
such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(E) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws or provisions hereunder.
A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank
or otherwise, the circumstances entitling such Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
§6.15. Advances by Administrative Agent; Canadian Agent; and U.K. Agent.
(a) The Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, may (unless earlier notified to the contrary by
any Bank by 1:00 p.m. (local time for such Agent) one (1) Business Day prior to any Drawdown Date, or in the case of
Domestic Base Rate Loans, on such Drawdown Date) assume that each Bank has made available (or will before the end of
the applicable Drawdown Date make available) to such Agent the amount of such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage,
Canadian Commitment Percentage or PR Commitment Percentage, as applicable, with respect to the Loans to be made on
such Drawdown Date, and such Agent may (but shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available
to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Bank makes such amount available to such Agent on a date after
such Drawdown Date, such Bank shall pay such Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average,
computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted average annual interest rate paid by such Agent for
funds acquired by such Agent during each day included in such period times (ii) the amount equal to
such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage of such Domestic Loan, Canadian Commitment Percentage of such Canadian
Loan and PR Commitment Percentage of such PR Loan, as applicable, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of days that elapse from and including such Drawdown Date to but not including the date on which the amount equal
to such Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage, Canadian Commitment Percentage or PR Commitment Percentage, as
applicable, of such Loans, shall become immediately available to such Agent, and the denominator of which is 365. A
statement of such Agent submitted to such Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie
evidence of the amount due and owing to such Agent by such Bank. If such amount is not in fact made available to such
Agent by such Bank within three (3) Business Days of such Drawdown Date, such Agent shall be entitled to recover such
amount from, and the applicable Bank and the applicable Borrower(s) severally agree to pay to such Agent forthwith on
demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to such Agent, at (A) in the case of a
payment to be made by such Bank, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily
charged by such Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment made by such Borrower, the
interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Borrower and such Bank shall pay such interest to such Agent for the
same or an overlapping period, such Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such
Borrower for such period. If such Bank pays its share of the applicable borrowing to such Agent, then the amount so paid
(less all such aforementioned interest and fees incurred by such Bank as a result of its failure to pay the required amounts to
the applicable Agent) shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in such borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be
without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Bank that shall have failed to make such payment to such
Agent.
(b) Unless Ryder, the Canadian Borrowers or Ryder PR, as the case may be, has notified the Administrative Agent
or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the applicable Agent
hereunder, that such Borrower will not make such payment, the applicable Agent may assume that such Borrower has timely
made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to
such Bank. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the applicable Agent by the applicable Borrower in
immediately available funds, then each applicable Bank shall forthwith on demand repay to the applicable Agent the portion
of such assumed payment that was made available to such Bank in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect
of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the applicable Agent to such Bank to the date
such amount is repaid to the applicable Agent in Same Day Funds at the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect.
(c) Where a sum is to be paid to the U.K. Agent under the Loan Documents for another party, the U.K. Agent is not
obliged to pay that sum to that other party (or to
enter into or perform any related exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually
received that sum. Unless §6.15(d) below applies, if the U.K. Agent pays an amount to another party and it proves to be the
case that the U.K. Agent had not actually received that amount, then the party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any
related exchange contract) was paid by the U.K. Agent shall on demand refund the same to the U.K. Agent together with
interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the U.K. Agent, calculated by the U.K. Agent to
reflect its cost of funds.
(d) If the U.K. Agent is willing to make available amounts for the account of a U.K. Borrower before receiving
funds from the U.K. Banks then, if and to the extent that the U.K. Agent does so, but it proves to be the case that it does not
then receive funds from a U.K. Bank in respect of a sum which it paid to a U.K. Borrower:
(i) the U.K. Borrower to whom that sum was made available shall on demand refund it to the U.K. Agent; and
(ii) the U.K. Bank by whom those funds should have been made available or, if that U.K. Bank fails to do so, the
U.K. Borrower to whom that sum was made available, shall on demand pay to the U.K. Agent the amount (as certified by the
U.K. Agent) which will indemnify the U.K. Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum
before receiving those funds from that U.K. Bank.
(e) A notice of the applicable Agent to any Bank or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under
§§6.15(a) to (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(f) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Bank makes available to any applicable Agent funds for any Loan
to be made by such Bank to any Borrower as provided in the foregoing provisions of §2, and such funds are not made
available to such Borrower by such Agent because the conditions to the applicable credit extension set forth in §11 and/or
§12, as applicable, are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the applicable Agent shall return such
funds (in like funds as received from such Bank) to such Bank in a timely manner, without interest.
(g) Obligations of Banks Several. The obligations of the Banks hereunder to make Loans, to accept and purchase
Bankers’ Acceptances, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to
§18.2 are several and not joint. The failure of any Bank to make any Loan, to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances, to
fund any such participation or to make any payment under §18.2 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other
Bank of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank
to so make its Loan, to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
§18.2.
(h) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Bank to obtain the funds for any Loan in any
particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Bank that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any
Loan in any particular place or manner.
§6.16. Currency Fluctuations.
(a) The applicable Agent or the applicable Swing Line Lender, as applicable, shall determine the Exchange Rates as
of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of credit extensions and Outstanding Amounts
denominated in Canadian Dollars, Sterling and Euros. Such Exchange Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation
Date and shall be the Exchange Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next
Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Borrowers hereunder or calculating
financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than
Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the applicable
Agent or the applicable Swing Line Lender, as applicable.
(b) Not later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on each Revaluation Date, the Canadian Agent, in consultation with the
Canadian Swing Line Lender, shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Canadian Loans denominated in
Canadian Dollars and the outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances. Not later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on each Revaluation
Date, the U.K. Agent, in consultation with the U.K. Swing Line Lender, shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the
outstanding U.K. Loans denominated in Sterling and Euros.
(c) If, on any Revaluation Date, the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Loans and the aggregate face amount of all
Bankers’ Acceptances, exceeds the Total Canadian Commitment (the amount of such excess referred to herein as the
“Canadian Excess Amount”) by more than one percent (1%) of the aggregate amount of the Total Canadian Commitment,
then (i) the Canadian Agent shall give notice thereof to the Canadian Borrowers and the Canadian Banks and (ii) within two
(2) Business Days thereafter, the Canadian Borrowers shall repay or prepay Canadian Loans in an aggregate principal amount
such that, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Loans and the aggregate face amount of all
Bankers’ Acceptances no longer exceeds the Total Canadian Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to avoid the
incurrence of breakage costs with respect to Canadian Loans which are LIBOR Rate Loans, the Canadian Borrowers shall not
be obligated to repay any Canadian Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan until the end of the Interest Period relating thereto to the
extent that the unused amount of the Domestic Commitments of the Domestic Banks which are affiliates of the Canadian
Banks shall be greater than or equal to the Canadian Excess Amount. On each Revaluation Date and until the Canadian
Loans are repaid in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph (c), the Total Domestic Commitment shall be
automatically reduced by an amount equal to the Canadian Excess Amount.
Such reduction shall be made by reducing the Domestic Commitments of each such Domestic Bank that is an affiliate of a
Canadian Bank by an amount equal to such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage of the Canadian Excess
Amount.
(d) If, on any Revaluation Date, the Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Loans exceeds the Total U.K. Commitment
(the amount of such excess referred to herein as the “U.K. Excess Amount”) by more than one percent (1%) of the Total U.K.
Commitment, then (i) the U.K. Agent shall give notice thereof to the U.K. Borrowers and the U.K. Banks and (ii) within two
(2) Business Days thereafter, the U.K. Borrowers shall repay or prepay U.K. Loans in an aggregate principal amount such
that, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of all U.K. Loans no longer exceeds the Total U.K. Commitment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to avoid the incurrence of breakage costs with respect to U.K. Loans which are LIBOR Rate
Loans, the U.K. Borrowers shall not be obligated to repay any U.K. Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan until the end of the
Interest Period relating thereto to the extent that the unused amount of the Domestic Commitments of the Domestic Banks
which are affiliates of the U.K. Banks shall be greater than or equal to the U.K. Excess Amount. On each Revaluation Date
and until the U.K. Loans are repaid in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph (d), the Total Domestic
Commitment shall be automatically reduced by an amount equal to the U.K. Excess Amount. Such reduction shall be made
by reducing the Domestic Commitments of each such Domestic Bank that is an affiliate of a U.K. Bank by an amount equal
to such Domestic Bank’s Domestic Commitment Percentage of the U.K. Excess Amount.
§6.17. Successor Rates.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including §17
hereof), if an Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Ryder or Majority Banks
notify the Agents (with, in the case of the Majority Banks, a copy to Ryder) that Ryder or Majority Banks (as applicable)
have determined, that:
(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Applicable Reference Rate for an Applicable
Currency for any requested Interest Period including, without limitation, because the Applicable Screen Rate for such
Applicable Currency is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or
(ii) the administrator of the Applicable Screen Rate for an Applicable Currency or a Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction over the applicable Agent or such administrator has made a public statement identifying a specific date after
which (A) the Applicable Reference Rate for an Applicable Currency or the Applicable Screen Rate for an Applicable
Currency shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Applicable
Currency or (B) the administrator of the Applicable Screen Rate for an Applicable Currency will be insolvent; provided, that,
in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the applicable Agent, that
will continue to provide the
Applicable Reference Rate for such Applicable Currency after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled
Unavailability Date”); or
(iii) the administrator of the Applicable Screen Rate for an Applicable Currency or a Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction over the applicable Agent or such administrator has made a public statement announcing that all Interest
Periods and other tenors of the Applicable Reference Rate for an Applicable Currency are no longer representative, or
(iv) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this §6.17, are
being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Applicable
Reference Rate for an Applicable Currency,
then, in the case of clauses (i) through (iii) above, on a date and time determined by the applicable Agent (any such date, the
“Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as
applicable, for interest calculated and shall occur reasonably promptly upon the occurrence of any of the events or
circumstances under clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above and, solely with respect to clause (ii) above, no later than the Scheduled
Unavailability Date,
(A) the Applicable Reference Rate for Loans denominated in Dollars will be replaced hereunder and under
any Loan Document with, subject to the proviso below, the first available alternative set forth in the order below for
any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the applicable Agent, in each case, without any
amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the
“LIBOR Successor Rate”; and any such rate before giving effect to the Related Adjustment, the “Pre-Adjustment
Successor Rate”): (x) Term SOFR plus the Related Adjustment and (y) SOFR plus the Related Adjustment; and in the
case of clause (iv) above, Ryder and the applicable Agent may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of
replacing the Applicable Reference Rate for Loans denominated in Dollars under this Agreement and under any other
Loan Document in accordance with the definition of “LIBOR Successor Rate” and such amendment will become
effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5 ) Business Day after the applicable Agent shall have notified all Banks and
Ryder of the occurrence of the circumstances described in clause (iv) above unless, prior to such time, Banks
comprising the Majority Banks have delivered to the applicable Agent written notice that such Majority Banks object
to the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate pursuant to such clause (provided, that, if the applicable Agent
determines that Term SOFR has become available, is administratively feasible for the applicable Agent and would
have been identified as the Pre-Adjustment Successor Rate in accordance with the foregoing if it had been so
available at the time that the LIBOR Successor Rate then in effect was so identified, and the Administrative Agent
notifies Ryder and each Bank of such availability, then from and after the beginning of the Interest Period, relevant
th
interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, in each case, commencing no less than thirty (30)
days after the date of such notice, the Pre-Adjustment Successor Rate shall be Term SOFR and the LIBOR Successor
Rate shall be Term SOFR plus the relevant Related Adjustment); and
(B) with respect to any Applicable Currency other than Dollars, the applicable Agent and Ryder may amend
this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Applicable Reference Rate for Loans denominated in the
Applicable Currency in accordance with this §6.17 with another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to
any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities syndicated in the U.S. and
denominated in the Applicable Currency for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any
mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing
convention for similar syndicated credit facilities syndicated in the U.S. and denominated in the Applicable Currency
for such benchmarks, each of which adjustments or methods for calculating such adjustments shall be published on an
information service as selected by the applicable Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be
periodically updated (each, an “Adjustment”; and any such proposed rate, an “Applicable Successor Rate” and
together with the LIBOR Successor Rate, a “Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at
5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5 ) Business Day after the applicable Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all
Banks and the Ryder unless, prior to such time, Banks comprising the Majority Banks have delivered to the applicable
Agent written notice that such Majority Banks object to such amendment. If no Applicable Successor Rate has been
determined for the Applicable Currency and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled
Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the applicable Agent will promptly so notify Ryder and each Banks.
th
The Agents will promptly (in one or more notices) notify Ryder and each Bank of (x) any occurrence of any of the
events, periods or circumstances under clauses (i) through (iii) above, (y) a Replacement Date and (z) the Successor Rate.
Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that, to the extent such
market practice is not administratively feasible for the applicable Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as
otherwise reasonably determined by such Agent.
Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would
otherwise be less than zero, such Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.
In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, the applicable Agent will have the right to make
Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other
Loan Document, any
amendments implementing such Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or
consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided, that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the applicable
Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Successor Rate Conforming Changes to Ryder and the Banks
reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.
If the events or circumstances of the type described in §6.17(a)(i) through (iii) have occurred with respect to the
Successor Rate then in effect, then the successor rate thereto shall be determined in accordance with the definition of
“Successor Rate.”
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) after any such determination by the applicable Agent or
receipt by the applicable Agent of any such notice described under §6.17(a)(i) through (iii) with respect to an Applicable
Reference Rate for Loans denominated in an Applicable Currency, as applicable, if the applicable Agent determines that a
Successor Rate is not available (or, in the case of the LIBOR Successor Rate, none of the LIBOR Successor Rates is
available) on or prior to the Replacement Date, (ii) if the events or circumstances described in §6.17(a)(iv) have occurred
with respect to an Applicable Reference Rate for Loans denominated in an Applicable Currency but a Successor Rate is not
available (or, in the case of the LIBOR Successor Rate, none of the LIBOR Successor Rates is available), or (iii) if the events
or circumstances of the type described in §6.17(a)(i) through (iii) have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in
effect for an Applicable Currency and the applicable Agent determines that the Successor Rate is not available (or, in the case
of the LIBOR Successor Rate, none of the LIBOR Successor Rates is available), then in each case, the applicable Agent and
Ryder may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Applicable Reference Rate for the Applicable
Currency or any then current Successor Rate for such Applicable Currency at the end of any Interest Period, relevant interest
payment date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, in accordance with this §6.17 with another alternate
benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities
syndicated in the U.S. and denominated in the Applicable Currency for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case,
including any Related Adjustments (in the case of the LIBOR Successor Rate) and any other mathematical or other
adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated
credit facilities syndicated in the U.S. and denominated in the Applicable Currency for such benchmarks, each of which
adjustments or methods for calculating such adjustments shall be published on an information service as selected by the
Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated. For the avoidance of
doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments shall constitute a Successor Rate. Any such amendment shall become
effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5 ) Business Day after the applicable Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment
to all Banks and Ryder unless, prior to such time, Banks comprising the Majority Banks have delivered to such Agent written
notice that such Majority Banks object to such amendment.
th
(c) If, at the end of any Interest Period, relevant interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, no
Successor Rate has been determined for an Applicable Currency in accordance with §6.17(a) or (b) and the circumstances
under §6.17(a)(i) or (a)(iii) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the applicable
Agent will promptly so notify Ryder and each Bank. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Banks to make or maintain LIBOR
Rate Loans and U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans in each such Applicable Currency shall be suspended (to the extent of the
affected LIBOR Rate Loans, U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, Interest Periods, interest payment dates or payment
periods), and (y) the Domestic LIBOR Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Domestic Base Rate,
until the Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with §6.17(a) or (b). Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the
applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request made by such Borrower for a borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans and U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans in each such affected Applicable Currency (to
the extent of the affected LIBOR Rate Loans, U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, Interest Periods, interest payment dates or
payment periods) or, failing that, (A) only with respect to Loans bearing interest at the Domestic LIBOR Rate, will be
deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Domestic Loans or PR Loans, as applicable, bearing
interest at the Domestic Base Rate (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein and (B) only with
respect to U.K. Loans, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of U.K. Loans in the
Applicable Currency bearing interest at the applicable Reference Rate or, in the event such Reference Rate is not available at
such time, the U.K. Cost of Funds Rate in the amount specified therein (it being understand that if for any reason in the sole
determination of the U.K. Agent, the U.K. Agent is unable to provide a quotation for the applicable U.K. Cost of Funds Rate
for such U.K. Loans, then in such circumstance, such U.K. Loans shall be subject to Section 6.17(c)(ii)), and (ii) any
outstanding affected LIBOR Rate Loans (other than (A) Domestic Loans or PR Loans, as applicable, bearing interest at the
Domestic LIBOR Rate and (B) U.K. Loans bearing interest at the applicable Reference Rate or the U.K. Cost of Funds Rate
in accordance with Section 6.17(c)(i)(B)) and U.K. Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans shall be prepaid at the end of the applicable
Interest Period in full.
§6.18. Successor CDOR.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including §17
hereof), if the Canadian Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Ryder or the
Canadian Banks with collectively greater than 50% of the total Canadian Commitments notify the Canadian Agent that Ryder
or the Canadian Banks with collectively greater than 50% of the total Canadian Commitments (as applicable) have
determined that:
(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining CDOR Rate, including because the Reuters Screen
CDOR page is not available or published on a current basis for the applicable period and such circumstances are unlikely to
be temporary;
(ii) the administrator of the CDOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction has made a public
statement identifying a specific date after which CDOR Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be made available or
permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans;
(iii) a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Canadian Agent has made a public statement identifying
a specific date after which CDOR Rate shall no longer be permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans (each
such specific date in clause (ii) and in this clause (iii) a “CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or
(iv) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this §6.18, are
being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the CDOR Rate,
then reasonably promptly after such determination by the Canadian Agent or receipt by the Canadian Agent of such notice, as
applicable, the Canadian Agent and Ryder may mutually agree upon a successor rate to the CDOR Rate, and the Canadian
Agent and Ryder may amend this Agreement to replace the CDOR Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any
mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein ), giving due consideration to any evolving
or then existing convention for similar Canadian Dollars denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative
benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “CDOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed CDOR Successor Rate
conforming changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5 ) Business
Day after the Canadian Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Banks and Ryder unless, prior to such time,
Canadian Banks comprising collectively greater than 50% of the total Canadian Commitments have delivered to the
Canadian Agent written notice that Canadian Banks comprising collectively greater than 50% of the total Canadian
Commitments do not accept such amendment.
th
(b) If no CDOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause §6.18(a)(i) exist or a
CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Canadian Agent will promptly so notify Ryder and
each Canadian Bank. Thereafter, the obligation of the Canadian Banks to make or maintain Bankers’ Acceptances, shall be
suspended (to the extent of the affected Bankers’ Acceptances or applicable periods). Upon receipt of such notice, the
Canadian Borrowers’ may revoke any pending request for an advance of, conversion to or rollover of Bankers’ Acceptances,
(to the extent of the affected Bankers’ Acceptances or applicable periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted
such request into a request for Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
(c) Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of the CDOR Successor Rate (exclusive of any margin)
shall provide that in no event shall such CDOR Successor Rate be less than zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

business operations so that the Borrowers and their Consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, may conduct business
substantially in the manner presently conducted by them, and (iii) is in good standing (or such qualification can be readily
obtained without material penalty) as a foreign corporation and is duly authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which

(b) Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (i) are within the corporate authority of each of the Borrowers, (ii) have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate proceedings on the part of each of the Borrowers, (iii) do not materially

Borrowers or any material agreement or other material instrument binding upon any of the Borrowers.

each of the Borrowers will result in valid and legally binding obligations of each of the Borrowers enforceable against each
such Borrower in accordance with the respective terms and provisions hereof and thereof, except as enforceability is limited
by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of
creditors’ rights and except to the extent that availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief is subject
to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

by each of the Borrowers and the consummation by each of the Borrowers of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do
not require any approval or consent of, or filing with, any governmental agency or authority other than those already obtained.
§7.3. Title to Properties; Leases. Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries own all of the assets reflected in the consolidated
balance sheet of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at the Balance Sheet Date or acquired since that date (except property

Consolidated Subsidiaries dated the Balance Sheet Date and the consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash
flow for the fiscal periods then ended, certified by Ryder’s independent certified public accountants of nationally recognized
standing. All said balance sheets and statements of operations have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (but, in the case of any
of such financial statements which are unaudited, only to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim unaudited reports) and fairly
present the financial condition of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at the close of business on the Balance Sheet Date and
the results of operations for the period then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited interim financial statements, to changes resulting
from audit and normal year-end adjustments and to the absence of complete footnotes). There are no contingent liabilities of Ryder
and its Consolidated Subsidiaries involving material amounts, known to the officers of Ryder, which have not been disclosed in said
balance sheets and the related notes thereto or otherwise in writing to the Administrative Agent.
§7.5. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.5, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations of any kind
pending or, to the knowledge of each of the Borrowers, threatened against Ryder or any of Ryder’s Consolidated Subsidiaries before
any court, tribunal or administrative agency or board which, either in any case or in the aggregate, if adversely determined, Ryder
reasonably believes would be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, or assets of Ryder and
its Consolidated Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, or materially impair the right of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries,
considered as a whole, to carry on business substantially as now conducted, or result in any substantial liability not adequately

validity of any of the Loan Documents to which Ryder or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries is a party, or any action taken or to be
taken pursuant hereto or thereto.

business or assets of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, considered as a whole.
§7.7. Tax Status. Each Borrower and each of Ryder’s Consolidated Subsidiaries (other than its Immaterial Subsidiaries) have

extensions with respect thereto) required by applicable Law to be filed by them, other than state or provincial tax returns covering
immaterial amounts, (b) paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges as shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith, and (c) set aside on their books provisions reasonably
adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply.
Except as set forth on Schedule 7.7, there are no unpaid taxes in any amount material to Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Borrowers know of no basis for
any such claim.
§7.8. No Event of Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
§7.9. Holding Company and Investment Company Acts. Neither Ryder nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or a
“public utility company” as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005; nor is any of them a
“registered investment company”, or an “affiliated company” or a “principal underwriter” of a “registered investment company”, as
such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
§7.10. Absence of Financing Statements, Etc. Except as permitted by §9.2, (a) there is no Indebtedness of the Borrowers or
obligors hereunder senior to the Obligations and (b) there is no effective financing statement, security agreement, chattel mortgage,
real estate mortgage or other document filed or recorded with any filing records, registry, or other public office, which purports to
cover, affect or give notice of any present or possible future lien on, or security interests in, any assets or property of Ryder or any of
its Consolidated Subsidiaries or right thereunder.
§7.11. ERISA Compliance.
(a) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other
Federal or state laws.
(b) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or
action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial condition, or results of operation of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
(c) (i) No ERISA Event has occurred, and neither the Borrowers nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event
or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan
that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or results of
operation of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries taken as a
whole; (ii) the Borrowers and each ERISA Affiliate has met in all material respects all applicable requirements under the
Pension Funding Rules in respect of each Pension Plan, and no waiver of the minimum funding standards under the Pension
Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained; and (iii) as of the most recent valuation date for any Pension Plan, the
Pension Plan unfunded liabilities did not exceed the value of its assets in an amount that could reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or results of operation of the Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
(d) No Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any material liability (including secondary liability) to any
Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan under §4201 of ERISA or
as a result of a sale of assets described in §4204 of ERISA that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on the business, financial condition, or results of operation of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. No
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or is insolvent under
and within the meaning of §4241 or §4245 of ERISA or has been terminated under §4041A of ERISA that could reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or results of operation of the Borrowers and
their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
(e) Each Borrower represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that such Borrower is not and will not be using
“plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit
Plans in connection with the Loans, the Bankers’ Acceptances, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments.
§7.12. Environmental Compliance. In the ordinary course of its business, each Borrower reviews the effect of Environmental
Laws on the business, operations and properties of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and
evaluates associated liabilities and costs (including, without limitation, capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up or
closure of properties presently or previously owned, capital or operating expenditures required to achieve or maintain compliance
with environmental protection standards imposed by Law or as a condition of any license, permit or contract, any periodic or
permanent shutdown of any facility or reduction in the level or change in the nature of operation conducted thereat, any costs or
liabilities in connection with off-site disposal of wastes or Hazardous Substances, and any actual or potential liabilities to third
parties, including employees, and any related costs and expenses). Except as set forth on Schedule 7.12, on the basis of this review,
each Borrower has reasonably concluded that such associated liabilities and costs, including the costs of compliance with
Environmental Laws, are unlikely to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations or
prospects of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
§7.13. Disclosure.
(a) The representations and warranties made by the Borrowers in this Agreement or by the Borrowers in any
agreement, instrument, document, certificate, statement or letter furnished to the Banks in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents do not, taken as a whole, together with all other information provided by or on behalf
of the Borrowers, which includes (a) any information provided pursuant §8.4 or otherwise provided by the Borrowers to the
Agents and the Banks in writing and (b) all information contained in the reports filed by Ryder with the Securities and

any director, officer, or controlled affiliate thereof, is a Person that is, or is owned or controlled by any Person that is (i)
currently the subject or target of any Sanctions, (ii) included on OFAC’s List of Specially Designated Nationals, or (iii)

Laundering Laws and such Sanctions.

used for general corporate purposes and working capital purposes. No Loans or Bankers’ Acceptances or any portion of any Letter of
Credit shall be used in any way that will violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

any other Foreign Obligor) represents and warrants to the Agents, the Banks and the Issuing Bank that:
(a) Such Foreign Obligor is subject to civil and commercial Laws with respect to its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party (collectively as to such Foreign Obligor, the “Applicable
Foreign Obligor Documents”), and the execution, delivery and performance by such Foreign Obligor of the Applicable
Foreign Obligor Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts.
Neither such Foreign Obligor nor any of its material property has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any
legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or
otherwise) under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing in respect of its
obligations under the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents.
(b) There are no form requirements applicable to the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents under the Laws of the
jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing for the enforcement thereof against such Foreign
Obligor under the Laws of such jurisdiction, or to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in
evidence of the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents. It is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability,
priority or admissibility in evidence, in each case, in all material respects, of the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents that
the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents be filed, registered or recorded with, or executed or notarized before, any court or
other authority in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing or that any registration charge or
stamp or similar tax be paid on or in respect of the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents or any other document, except for

timely paid.
(c) There is no tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other governmental charge, or any deduction or
withholding, imposed by any Governmental Authority in or of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized,
existing and a resident for tax purposes either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Applicable Foreign

Foreign Obligor are, under applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor
is organized and existing, not subject to any notification or authorization except (i) such as have been made or obtained or (ii)
such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date and are not material (provided that any notification or authorization
described in clause (ii) shall be made or obtained as soon as is reasonably practicable).
§8. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWERS. Each of the Borrowers agrees that, so long as any Obligation is
outstanding or the Banks have any obligation to make Loans, or the Canadian Banks have any Obligations with respect to Bankers’
Acceptances, or the Issuing Bank has any obligation to issue, extend or renew any Letters of Credit:
§8.1. Punctual Payment. The applicable Borrower(s) will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal and
interest on the Loans, all Bankers’ Acceptances, all Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts provided for in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents.
§8.2. Maintenance of Chief Executive Office. Ryder will maintain its chief executive office at the location referred to in §7.14
or at such other place in the United States as Ryder shall designate upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agents.
§8.3. Records and Accounts. Each of the Borrowers will, and will cause each of its Consolidated Subsidiaries to, (a) keep
true and accurate records and books of account in which full, true and correct entries will be made in accordance with (i) with respect
to Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries only, GAAP and (ii) with respect to each such Person, the requirements of all regulatory
authorities and (b) maintain adequate accounts and reserves for all taxes (including income taxes), depreciation, depletion,
obsolescence and amortization of its properties, all other contingencies, and all other proper reserves in accordance with GAAP with
respect to Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries and in accordance with all regulatory authorities with respect to each of the other
Borrowers; provided that if any changes in GAAP with which Ryder’s independent accountants concur or changes in the application
of GAAP with which Ryder’s independent accountants concur result in a change (other than an immaterial change) in the method of
calculation or the basis upon which such calculation is made of any of the financial covenants, standards or terms contained in this
Agreement, the Borrowers and the Banks agree to amend such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP so that the criteria for
evaluating the consolidated financial condition of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries shall be the same after such accounting
changes as if such changes had not been made.
§8.4. Financial Statements, Certificates and Information. Ryder will deliver to each of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the
Agents:
(a) as soon as practicable, but, in any event not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal
year of Ryder, the consolidated balance sheet of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at the end of such year, and the
consolidated statements of income and cash flows for Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended,
each setting forth in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all such consolidated financial statements to be
in reasonable detail, prepared, in accordance with GAAP audited and accompanied by a report and opinion of independent
certified public accountants of nationally recognized standing selected by Ryder, which report and opinion shall be prepared
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and shall not be subject to any “going concern” or like qualification
or exception or any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit. In addition, within one hundred twenty (120)
days of the end of each such fiscal year, Ryder shall provide the Banks with a written statement from such accountants to the
effect that they have read a copy of this Agreement, and that, in making the examination necessary to said certification, they
have obtained no knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or, if such accountants shall have obtained knowledge of any
then-existing Default or Event of Default they shall disclose in such statement any such Default or Event of Default; provided
that such accountants shall not be liable to the Banks for failure to obtain knowledge of any Default or Event of Default;
(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than sixty (60) days after the end of each of the first three fiscal
quarters of each fiscal year of Ryder, copies of the consolidated balance sheets of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as
at the end of such quarter, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the portion of the fiscal year
then ended, all in reasonable detail and prepared in accordance with GAAP (to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim
unaudited financial statements) with a certification by the principal financial officer of Ryder that the consolidated financial
statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP (to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim unaudited financial
statements) and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis as at the close of business on the date thereof and the results of operations for the period then ended;
(c) simultaneously with the delivery of the financial statements referred to in (a) and (b) above, a certificate in the
form of Exhibit C hereto (the “ Compliance Certificate”) signed by the principal financial officer, treasurer or assistant
treasurer of Ryder, stating that Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries are in compliance with §10 hereof as of the end of the
applicable period setting forth in reasonable detail computations evidencing such compliance and certifying (i) no Default or
Event of Default exists or if a Default or Event of Default shall then exist, specifying the nature thereof and (ii) such other
matters as are set forth therein;
(d) as soon as practicable but, in any event, within thirty (30) Business Days after the issuance thereof, copies of all
material of a financial nature filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission or sent to the stockholders of Ryder or any of its Subsidiaries generally; and
(e) from time to time, and with reasonable promptness, such other financial data and other information as the Banks
may reasonably request.
The Borrowers hereby authorize each Bank to disclose any information obtained pursuant to this Agreement to all appropriate
governmental regulatory authorities where required by Law, including, without limitation, with respect to requests or directives,
whether or not having the force of law. Except for any such disclosure to governmental banking regulatory authorities upon the
request therefor, the applicable Agent or Bank or the Issuing Bank shall, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, provide
prompt written notice to Ryder so that Ryder may have the opportunity to contest such disclosure and such Agent or Bank or the
Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts within Law to maintain the confidentiality of such Information.
Documents required to be delivered pursuant to §§8.4(a), (b) and (c) (to the extent any such documents are included in materials
otherwise filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed
to have been delivered on the date (i) on which Ryder posts such documents, or provides a link thereto on its website on the Internet
at www.ryder.com; or (ii) on which such documents are posted on Ryder’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which
each Bank and the Agents have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative
Agent); provided that: (i) Ryder shall deliver paper copies of such documents to the Administrative Agent or any Bank that requests
Ryder to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent or
such Bank and (ii) Ryder shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Bank (by telecopier or electronic mail) of the posting of any
such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance Ryder shall be required to provide paper copies of the Compliance
Certificates required by §8.4(c) to the Administrative Agent. Except for such Compliance Certificates, the Administrative Agent
shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have
no responsibility to monitor compliance by Ryder with any such request for delivery, and each Bank shall be solely responsible for
requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents.
Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Co-Lead Arrangers will make available to the
Banks and the Issuing Bank materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of such Borrower hereunder (collectively,
“Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b)
certain of the Banks (each, a “Public Bank”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with
respect to any of the Borrowers or their respective Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be
engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. Each Borrower hereby agrees that
so long as such Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private
offering or
is actively contemplating issuing any such securities (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Banks shall
be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear
prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have
authorized the Administrative Agent, the Co-Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Banks to treat such Borrower Materials as not
containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their respective securities for purposes of United
States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they
shall be treated as set forth in §29); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a
portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Co-Lead Arrangers shall be
entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the
Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Borrower shall be under any obligation to
mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”
§8.5. Corporate Existence; Compliance with Laws, Other Agreements. Each of the Borrowers will, and Ryder will cause each
of its Consolidated Subsidiaries (other than its Immaterial Subsidiaries) to, (a) keep in full force and effect their respective corporate
existence and all rights, licenses, leases and franchises reasonably necessary to the conduct of its business, and (b) comply with (i) all
applicable Laws and regulations (including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws) wherever its business is conducted, (ii) the
provisions of its charter documents, by-laws and constitutional documents, and (iii) all agreements and instruments by which it or
any of its properties may be bound and all applicable decrees, orders and judgments, in each case in such manner that there will not
result a material and adverse effect on the financial condition, properties or business of the Borrowers, considered separately, or
Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries considered as a whole.
§8.6. Maintenance of Properties. Each of the Borrowers will, and Ryder will cause each of its Consolidated Subsidiaries to,
cause all material properties used or useful in the conduct of its business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and
working order (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements,
betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries may be necessary for the
conduct of their business; provided, however, that nothing in this section shall prevent Ryder or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries
from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of such Person,
desirable in the conduct of its business and which does not in the aggregate materially adversely affect the financial condition,
business or assets of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
§8.7. Insurance. Each of the Borrowers will, and Ryder will cause each of its Consolidated Subsidiaries to, maintain (either
in the name of such Borrower or in such Subsidiary’s own name), insurance with respect to their properties in at least such amounts
and against at least such risks (and with such risk retention) as are usually insured against in the same general area by companies of
established repute engaged in the same or a similar business and of
similar size; and will furnish to the Banks, upon request of the Administrative Agent, information presented in reasonable detail as to
the insurance so carried.
§8.8. Taxes. Each of the Borrowers will, and Ryder will cause each of its Consolidated Subsidiaries to, duly pay and
discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, before the same shall become overdue, all taxes, assessments and other governmental
charges imposed upon it and its real properties, sales and activities, or any part thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as
well as all claims for labor, materials or supplies, which if unpaid might by Law become a lien or charge upon any of its property;
provided that the Borrowers or any Consolidated Subsidiary shall not be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy if
the same shall not at the time be due and payable or can be paid thereafter without penalty; or if the validity thereof shall currently be
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings if it shall have set aside on its books reserves deemed by it adequate with respect
to such tax, assessment, charge or levy; or if the failure to pay such tax, assessment, charge or levy shall not result in a material
adverse change in the financial position, results of operations, business or other condition of the Borrowers and their Consolidated
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
§8.9. Inspection of Properties, Books and Contracts. The Banks, through the Agents or any of their designated representatives,
shall have the right to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrowers to examine their books of account (and to make copies
thereof and extracts therefrom), and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrowers with, and to be advised as to the
same by, its officers, all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Banks may reasonably request.
§8.10. Notice of Potential Claims or Litigation. Each of the Borrowers shall deliver to the Banks, within thirty (30) days of

Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the initiation of any action, claim, complaint, or any other notice of dispute or potential
litigation, including pursuant to any applicable Environmental Laws brought by any Governmental Authority, wherein the potential

The Borrowers will not use the proceeds of any Loan or borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances or any portion of any Letter of
Credit to purchase or carry any “margin security” or “margin stock” (as such terms are defined in said Regulations U and X).
§8.13. Debt Ratings. The Borrowers will notify the Agents promptly upon becoming aware thereof, of any publicly
announced change in the Senior Public Debt Ratings and/or any change in the rating of any other Indebtedness of any of their

purpose at any time required by Law or governmental regulation as a condition to the transaction of business or the exercise

(d) sales by Ryder and its Subsidiaries of their accounts receivable pursuant to the Receivables Purchase
Agreements; provided that (i) the aggregate face amount of all accounts receivable of Ryder treated as purchased receivables
and sold by Ryder and/or its Subsidiaries to the securitization conduit under the Receivables Purchase Agreements shall not
exceed at any time the lesser of (A) seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate face amount of all accounts receivable of
Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, including the accounts receivable which constitute purchased
receivables under the Receivables Purchase Agreements and (B) $425,000,000, and (ii) from and after the date of the first

(10%) of the aggregate book value of all Consolidated Tangible Assets of Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries,
determined in accordance with GAAP, measured as of the first day of such twelve (12) month period and (ii) the revenue
attributable to the assets so

not owned by Ryder and its Consolidated Subsidiaries), together with corporate authority documentation and a legal opinion, in form
and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as to the authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of such
guaranty. The Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Banks agree that each such guaranty shall be deemed to be a “Loan

reasonable discretion that such event could reasonably be expected to result in liability of any of the Borrowers or any of
their Subsidiaries under Title IV of ERISA to the Pension Plan or the PBGC in an aggregate amount in excess of
$75,000,000, and such event, under the circumstances could reasonably constitute grounds for the partial or complete
termination of such Plan by the PBGC or for the appointment by the appropriate United States District Court of a trustee to
administer such Plan; or a trustee shall have been appointed by the appropriate United States District Court to administer
such Plan; or the PBGC shall have instituted proceedings to terminate such Plan;;

then, and in any such event, so long as the same may be continuing, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the written or telephonic
(confirmed in writing) requests of the Majority Banks, shall, by written notice to the Borrowers, declare all amounts under this Agreement
and the Notes and all L/C Obligations to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall forthwith mature and become immediately
due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon, without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived by
each of the Borrowers, provided that in the case of the occurrence of any event specified in paragraphs (g) or (h) of this §13.1, all such
amounts outstanding hereunder and under the Notes shall become due and payable forthwith without the requirement of any such notice or
the action of any Person and without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by
each of the Borrowers. Upon written demand by the Majority Banks after the occurrence of any Event of Default, and automatically without
the necessity of demand in the event of any Event of Default specified in paragraphs (g) or (h) of this §13.1, Ryder shall immediately provide
to the Administrative Agent cash in an amount equal to the aggregate L/C Obligations on all then outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the
account of Ryder or any of its domestic Subsidiaries to be held by the Administrative Agent as Cash Collateral for such L/C Obligations.
§13.2. Termination of Commitments. If any Event of Default pursuant to §13.1(g) or §13.1(h) hereof shall occur, any unused
portion of the Total Commitment hereunder shall forthwith terminate and the Banks and the Agents shall be relieved of all
obligations to make Loans or to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances hereunder and the Issuing Bank shall be relieved of all
further obligations to issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit; or if any other Event of Default shall occur, the Majority Banks may
by notice to the Borrowers terminate the unused portion of the Total Commitment hereunder, and, upon such notice being given,
such unused portion of the Total Commitment hereunder shall terminate immediately and the Banks and the Agents shall be relieved
of all further obligations to make Loans or to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances and the Issuing Bank shall be relieved of all
further obligations to issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit. No termination of any portion of the Total Commitment hereunder
shall relieve the Borrowers of any of their existing Obligations to the Banks, the Issuing Bank or the Agents hereunder or elsewhere.
§13.3. Remedies. In case any one or more of the Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not
the Banks shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans and other Obligations pursuant to §13.1, subject to §23A, each Bank,
upon notice to the other Banks, if owed any amount with respect to the Loans, may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in
equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained
in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to which the Obligations to such Bank are evidenced,
including, without limitation, as permitted by applicable Law the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if such
amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any legal or equitable right of
such Bank. No remedy herein conferred upon any Bank, the Issuing Bank or the Agents or the holder of any Note, Loan or any
Obligations hereunder or purchaser of any participation in any Letter of Credit is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at Law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of Law.
§13.4. Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court or obtaining an order enforcing a judgment,
it becomes necessary to convert any amount due under this Agreement in Dollars or in any other currency (hereinafter in this §13.4
called the “first currency”) into any other currency (hereinafter in this §13.4 called the “second currency”), then the conversion shall
be made at the applicable Agent’s spot rate of exchange for buying the first currency with the second currency prevailing at the
applicable Agent’s close of business on the Business Day next preceding the day on which the judgment is given or (as the case may
be) the order is made. Any payment made to the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank pursuant to this Agreement in the second
currency shall constitute a discharge of the obligations of the applicable Borrowers to pay to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the
Banks any amount originally due to the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks in the first currency under this Agreement only to the
extent of the amount of the first currency which the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank and each of the applicable Banks is able, on
the date of the receipt by it of such payment in any second currency, to purchase, in accordance with the applicable Agent’s, the
Issuing Bank’s and such Bank’s normal banking procedures, with the amount of such second currency so received. If the
amount of the first currency falls short of the amount originally due to the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank and the applicable
Banks in the first currency under this Agreement, each of the applicable Borrowers agrees that it will indemnify the applicable
Agent, the Issuing Bank and each of the applicable Banks against, and save the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank and each of the
applicable Banks harmless from, and make payment in respect thereof within three (3) Business Days after demand therefor, any
shortfall so arising. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation of each such Borrower separate and independent from the other
obligations contained in this Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and shall continue in full force
and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due to the applicable Agent, the
Issuing Bank or any applicable Bank under this Agreement or under any such judgment or order. Any such shortfall shall be deemed
to constitute a loss suffered by the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank and each such Bank, as the case may be, and the applicable
Borrowers shall not be entitled to require any proof or evidence of any actual loss. The covenant contained in this §13.4 shall survive
the payment in full of all of the other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.
§14. SETOFF. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits or
other sums credited by or due from any of the Banks or any affiliate of a Bank to any of the Borrowers and any securities or other
property of any of the Borrowers in the possession of such Bank or such affiliate of a Bank may be applied to or set off by such Bank
against the payment of Obligations and, with respect to Ryder, Guaranteed Obligations, and any and all other liabilities, direct, or
indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of such Borrower to such Bank, the other
Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents. Any amounts set off pursuant to this §14 shall be distributed ratably in accordance with §28
among all of the Banks by the Bank setting off such amount; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Bank shall exercise any
such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in
accordance with the provisions of §2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Bank from its other
funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and (y) the Defaulting Bank shall provide
promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Bank as
to which it exercised such right of setoff. If any Bank fails to share such setoff ratably, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Agent and/or the U.K. Agent, as applicable, shall have the right to withhold such Bank’s share of any Borrower’s payments until
each of the Banks shall have, in the aggregate, received a pro rata repayment.
§15. COSTS AND EXPENSES.
(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable documented out of pocket expenses incurred by each Agent and its
Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection
with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all
reasonable documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out reasonable documented of
pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, any Bank or the Issuing Bank (including the reasonable fees, charges and

of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or
(B) in connection with the Loans made or Bankers’ Acceptances and Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
reasonable documented out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such
Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances or Letters of Credit.
(b) Reimbursement by Banks. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount
required under §15(a) to be paid by it to the Agents (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any
of the foregoing, each Bank severally agrees to pay to such Agent(s) (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Bank or such
Related Party, as the case may be, such Bank’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount within three (3) Business Days after demand
therefor, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case
may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent(s) (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such,
or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for such Agents (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Bank in
connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Banks under this §15(b) are several and not joint.
(c) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after
demand therefor.
(d) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of any Agent, the Issuing Bank and any
Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Bank, the termination of the Total Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all the other Obligations.
§15A. PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.
To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the U.K.
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank, or the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the U.K. Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Bank exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the U.K. Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Bank in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of
such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect
as if such payment had not been made or such
setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Bank and the Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent,
the Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or
repaid by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the
date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of
the Banks and the Issuing Bank under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and
the termination of this Agreement.
§16. THE AGENTS.
§16.1. Appointment and Authority. Each of the Banks and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints (a) Bank of America
to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) RBC to act on its behalf as the
Canadian Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (c) Bank of America London to act on its behalf as the U.K.
Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise
such powers as are delegated to such Agents by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. The provisions of this §16 are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Banks and the Issuing Bank, and neither
any Borrower nor any guarantor hereunder shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.
§16.2. Rights as a Bank. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent and the U.K. Agent hereunder
shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Bank as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an
Agent and the term “Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include
the Person serving as the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent and the U.K. Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such
Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not the Administrative Agent, Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.
§16.3. Exculpatory Provisions. The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and
in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:
(a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is
continuing;
(b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that any Agent is required to exercise as
directed in writing by the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its reasonable
opinion or the opinion of
its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law;
(c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and no
Agent shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any of the Borrowers or any of their respective
Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the
U.K. Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and
(d) shall, notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document to the contrary, be obliged to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise
of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Banks (or such other
number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the applicable Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the
circumstances as provided in §17) or (ii) in the absence of such Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be
deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by Ryder, a Bank or the
Issuing Bank.
No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or
other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in §11 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.
No Agent shall be obliged to act in accordance with any instructions of any Bank or group of Banks until it has received any indemnification
and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Loan Documents and which may
include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability which it may incur in complying with those instructions.
§16.4. Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any
notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated
by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition
hereunder to the making of a Loan, the purchasing of any Bankers’ Acceptance, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms
must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Bank or the Issuing Bank, the
applicable Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank or the Issuing Bank unless such Agent shall have
received notice to the contrary from such Bank or the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan, the purchasing of such
Bankers’ Acceptance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for
Ryder, the Borrowers or any of them), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
§16.5. Use of Sub-Agents. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or
under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Any Agent and any such sub-
agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The
exculpatory provisions of this §16 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-
agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as
well as activities as an Agent hereunder.
§16.6. Resignation of an Agent. Any Agent may at any time give forty-five (45) days prior written notice of its resignation to
the Banks, the Issuing Bank and Ryder. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Banks shall have the right to
appoint a successor (and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be acceptable to Ryder (with such acceptance not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), which shall be a bank with an office in the appropriate jurisdiction for such Agent, or an
Affiliate of any such bank. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such
appointment within thirty (30) days after such retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of
the Banks and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, Canadian Agent or U.K. Agent, as applicable, meeting
the qualifications set forth above (and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, such successor appointed by the retiring
Agent shall be acceptable to Ryder (with such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)); provided that if such Agent
shall notify Ryder and the Banks that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment or been approved by Ryder, then such
resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations
provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Bank and the Issuing Bank directly, until such
time as the Majority Banks appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Administrative Agent, Canadian Agent or U.K. Agent, as applicable, hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom
as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Ryder to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its
predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Ryder and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this §16 and §15 and §18 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent,
its sub-agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting
as an Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or the U.K. Agent, as applicable.
Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank and
Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring
Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the
time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the
retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.
Any resignation by RBC as Canadian Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as the Canadian Swing Line Lender.
Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Canadian Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with
all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Canadian Swing Line Lender and (b) the retiring Canadian Swing Line Lender shall be
discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
Any resignation by Bank of America London as U.K. Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation of Bank of America
as the U.K. Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as U.K. Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the U.K. Swing Line Lender and (b) the retiring U.K. Swing Line
Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
§16.7. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Banks. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that neither any Agent nor
any Co-Lead Arranger has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent or any Co-Lead Arranger
hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Borrower or any Affiliate
thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent or any Co-Lead Arranger to any Bank or the
Issuing Bank as to any matter, including whether any Agent or any Co-Lead Arranger has disclosed material information in their (or
their Related Parties’) possession. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank represents to the Agents and the Co-Lead Arrangers that it has,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lead Arranger, any other Bank, or the Issuing Bank or any of their Related
Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and
investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower
and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its
own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Co-Lead Arranger, any other Bank, the Issuing
Bank or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank represents and warrants that
(a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (b) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding
commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Bank or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, for the
purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such
Bank or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial
instrument, and each Bank and the Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Bank and the
Issuing Bank represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans
and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Bank or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, and either it, or
the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other
facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.
§16.8. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Co-Lead Arrangers,
documentation agents or syndication agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Agent, the U.K. Agent, a Bank or the Issuing Bank hereunder.
§16.9. Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other
judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or guarantor hereunder, the Administrative Agent, or in the case of such proceeding not
in the United States, the applicable local Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan, Bankers’ Acceptance or L/C
Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether any Agent
shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks, the Issuing Bank
and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents
under §2.2, §3.3, §4.9, §4.10, §15 and §18) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute
the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Bank and the Issuing Bank to make such payments to the
Agents and, in the event that the Agents shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Banks and the Issuing Bank, to pay to
the Agents any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due to such Agent under §2.2, §3.3, §4.9, §4.10, §15 and §18.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agents to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bank or
Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Bank or
Issuing Bank to authorize the Agents to vote in respect of the claim of any Bank or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Bankers’ Acceptances, the Letters of
Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).
§17. CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC. Any action to be taken (including the giving of notice) may be taken,

any condition set forth in §11; (ii) change the definition of “Majority Banks”; (iii) amend this §17; or (iv) release any Borrower from
its Obligations or release Ryder, in its capacity as guarantor, from its obligations under §5 hereof or in respect of the Guaranteed

subject any Bank to any additional obligations, including the extension of such Bank’s Commitment); (ii) reduce the principal of or
interest on the Loans or any Letter of Credit, L/C Obligations or any Bankers’ Acceptance (including, without limitation, interest on

waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Banks or each
affected Bank may be effected with the consent of the applicable Banks other than Defaulting Banks), except that (x) the
Commitment of any Defaulting Bank may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Bank and (y) any waiver,
amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank that by its terms affects any Defaulting Bank
more adversely than other affected Banks shall require the consent of such Defaulting Bank.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) in order to implement any additional Commitments in accordance with §2.1.5,
this Agreement may be amended for such purpose (but solely to the extent necessary to implement such additional Commitments in
accordance with §2.1.5) by each Borrower, the applicable Agent, and the applicable Banks providing such additional Commitments,
(B) this Agreement may be amended pursuant to §6.17 as contemplated in such section, (C) the Fee Letter may be amended, or
rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto, (D) each Bank is entitled to vote as such
Bank sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Obligations, and each Bank acknowledges that the provisions of
Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein, (E) the
Majority Banks shall determine whether or not to allow a Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding and such determination shall be binding on all of the Banks, (F) this Agreement may be amended (or
amended and restated) with the written consent of the Majority Banks, the Agents, each Borrower, and the relevant Banks providing
such additional credit facilities (1) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement, to permit the extensions of credit
from time to time outstanding hereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Obligations and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and to include
appropriately the Banks holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Majority Banks, and (2) to change, modify or alter
the provisions of this Agreement relating to the pro rata sharing of payments among the Banks to the extent necessary to effectuate
any of the amendments (or amendments and restatements) enumerated in this clause (F), (G) if following the Closing Date, the
Agents and the Borrowers shall have jointly identified an inconsistency, obvious error or omission, in each case, of a technical or
immaterial nature, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Agents and the Borrowers shall be permitted to amend such
provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan
Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Majority Banks within five (5) Domestic Business Days following receipt
of notice thereof, and (H) as to any amendment, amendment and restatement or other modifications otherwise approved in
accordance with this §17, it shall not be necessary to obtain the consent or approval of any Bank that, upon giving effect to such
amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification, would have no Commitment or outstanding Obligations so long as
such Bank receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on Obligations made by, and all other amounts owing to,
such Bank or accrued for the account of such Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the time such
amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification becomes effective.
§18. INDEMNIFICATION; DAMAGE WAIVER.
§18.1. Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall indemnify the Agents (and any sub-agent thereof), each Co-
Lead Arranger, each syndication agent, each documentation agent, each Bank and the Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of
the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for
any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any
Affiliate of a Borrower hereunder arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of
their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the
case of each Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed in §6), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the
proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the
documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual
or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Substances on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other
theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any guarantor hereunder, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee
is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment
to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any
Borrowers hereunder against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other
Loan Document, if such Borrowers has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this §18.1 shall not apply to any litigation, proceeding or dispute solely between
the Borrowers or any of their Consolidated Subsidiaries on the one hand and the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Banks on the other
hand, if the final non-appealable judgment in such litigation, proceeding or dispute is in favor of the Borrowers or any of their
Consolidated Subsidiaries and against such Indemnitee.
§18.2. Reimbursement by Banks. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required
under §18.1 to be paid by them to the Agents (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the
foregoing, each Bank severally agrees to pay to such Agent(s) (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as the
case may be, such Bank’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or
indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount within three (3) Business Days after demand therefor, provided that the
unreimbursed
expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such
Agent(s) (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing
acting for such Agents (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Banks under
this §18.2 are several and not joint.
§18.3. Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Borrower shall assert,
and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or
Bankers’ Acceptance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in §18.1 shall be liable for any
damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients
by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages
resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction.
§18.4. Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than three (3) Business Days after demand
therefor.
§18.5. Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Agents, the Issuing Bank and any Swing
Line Lender, the replacement of any Bank, the termination of the Total Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all the other Obligations.
§19. TAXES.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.
(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the respective Borrowers hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of, and without deduction for
Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any Borrower or any Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be
withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by such Borrower or such Agent, as the case may be, upon
the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to §6.2.
(ii) If any Borrower or any Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both
United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) such Agent shall withhold or
make such deductions as are determined by such Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has
received pursuant to §6.2, (B) such Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance
with the Code or the applicable Law or treaty, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of
Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any
required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) each of the Agents, Banks, the Issuing Bank or any holder of Notes, Loans or any Obligations hereunder,
as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
made.
(iii) If any Borrower or any Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or
deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or such Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or
make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received
pursuant to §6.2, (B) such Borrower or such Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount so
withheld or deducted by it to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that
the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower
shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agents, Banks, the Issuing Bank or any holder of
Notes, Loans or any Obligations hereunder, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(iv) If any Indemnifiable Taxes are directly asserted against the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank
with respect to any payment received by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or such Bank by reason of a Borrower’s failure to
properly deduct and withhold such Indemnifiable Taxes from such payment, the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank or such
Bank may pay such Indemnifiable Taxes and such Borrower will promptly pay all such additional amounts (including any
penalties, interest or reasonable expenses) as are necessary in order that the net amount received by such Person after the
payment of such Indemnifiable Taxes (including any Indemnifiable Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount
such Person would have received had not such Indemnifiable Taxes been asserted. Any such payment shall be made promptly
after the receipt by such Borrower from the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Bank, as the case may be, of a written
statement setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of the Indemnifiable Taxes and the basis of the claim.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, each
Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.
(c) Tax Indemnifications.
(i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) and (b) above, each Borrower shall, and does hereby
indemnify the Agents, each Bank and the Issuing Bank and shall make payment in respect thereof within three (3)
Business Days after demand therefor (which demand must set forth in reasonable detail the
amount of such Indemnifiable Taxes or such Other Taxes, as the case may be, and the basis of the claim), for the full
amount of any Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by such Borrower or the
applicable Agent or paid by the applicable Agent, such Bank or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. Each Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Agents, and shall make payment in respect
thereof within three (3) Business Days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Bank or the Issuing Bank for
any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the applicable Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection; provided, that
such indemnity shall not affect any Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s obligation to indemnify any Borrower for such amounts,
pursuant to clause (ii). A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a
Bank or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the applicable Agent), or by the applicable Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Bank or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Bank and the Issuing Bank shall, and does
hereby, indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within three (3) Business Days after demand therefor, (A) each
Agent against any Indemnifiable Taxes attributable to such Bank or the Issuing Bank (but only to the extent that any
Borrower has not already indemnified such Agent for such Indemnifiable Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the
Borrowers to do so) and any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank or the Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or
paid by such Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties,
interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Agent) and (B) each Borrower
and each Agent against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses
(including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Borrower or the applicable Agent) incurred by or
asserted against such Borrower or the applicable Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Bank
or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any
documentation required to be delivered by such Bank or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to such Borrower or the
applicable Agent pursuant to §6.2. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Agents, as applicable, to set off and
apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document against any amount due to the applicable Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause
(ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of any Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank
or the Issuing Bank, the termination of the Total Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other
Obligations. If the Borrowers shall pay any Taxes or make any payments with respect to any Taxes which are not
Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes, then the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Bank which has received any such
payment or with respect to which any such payment was made shall reimburse the applicable Borrower, within ten (10)
Business Days of request by such Borrower, the amount so
paid by such Borrower, together with interest at the Overnight Rate from the date such amounts were paid by such Borrower.
(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by a Borrower or the applicable Agent, as the case may be, after any
payment of Taxes by such Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this §19,
such Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Agent or the applicable Agent shall deliver to such Borrower, as the case may
be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of
any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such
Borrower or the applicable Agent, as the case may be.
(e) Failure to Deduct or Withhold. In the event any taxing authority notifies any of the Borrowers that any of them
has improperly failed to deduct or withhold any taxes (other than Indemnifiable Taxes) from a payment made hereunder to
the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Bank, the Borrowers shall timely and fully pay such taxes to such taxing authority.
(f) Mitigation of Indemnifiable Taxes. The Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Banks shall, upon the request of the
Borrowers, take reasonable measures to avoid or mitigate the amount of Indemnifiable Taxes required to be deducted or
withheld from any payment made hereunder if such measures can be taken without the imposition on such Person of any
costs or expenses unless the Borrowers have agreed to reimburse such Person therefor or result in such Person in its
reasonable judgment suffering any material legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided that if after the date hereof, any
Change in Law results in the imposition on the Borrowers of a deduction or withholding obligation with respect to amount
payable to banks or bank holding companies, to the extent that any such Change in Law relates to amounts payable hereunder
and to the extent that such Change in Law results in banks or bank holding companies receiving an undue benefit arising as a
result of the payment of such additional amount by the Borrowers, the Borrowers and the Agents shall make a reasonable,
good faith effort to negotiate a change in the terms of this Agreement that would allocate the benefits and costs (if any) of
such deductions and withholdings among the affected parties in a manner equitable to the Borrowers and the Banks
(including the Issuing Bank, if applicable).
(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall an Agent have any
obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Bank or the Issuing Bank, or have any obligation to pay to any Bank
or the Issuing Bank, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Bank or the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be. If an Agent, any Bank or the Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any
Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with
respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
and net of any loss or gain realized in the conversion of such funds from or to another currency incurred by such Agent, such
Bank or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of such Agent, such Bank or the
Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed
by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent, such Bank or the Issuing Bank in the event such Agent, such Bank
or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed
to require any Agent, any Bank or the Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its
taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
(h) Right to Assert and Control Challenges to Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes. If any Indemnifiable Taxes or
Other Taxes are imposed that result in an indemnification or payment obligation on any Borrower, such Borrower shall be
entitled, after the payment of such taxes pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) above, to challenge or dispute the imposition of
such Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes with the applicable Governmental Authority. A Borrower may request that the
Agents, Banks and/or the Issuing Bank cooperate (such cooperation to be in the sole discretion of such Agent, such Bank or
such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and, in each case, at such Borrower’s expense) in any such challenge, dispute, or
proceeding.
(i) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the parties hereunder, the agreements and
obligations of the Borrowers contained in this §19 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of
the Commitments.
§20. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan
Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution
and delivery hereof and thereof. Unless otherwise stated herein, all covenants and agreements, representations and warranties made
herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant hereto
shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agents, notwithstanding any investigation
heretofore or hereafter made by them and notwithstanding that the Agents or any Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default at the time of any credit extension, and shall survive the making by the Banks of the Loans and the acceptance and purchase
of any Bankers’ Acceptance and the issuance, extension or renewal of any Letters of Credit, as herein contemplated, and shall
continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement, any Obligation, any Bankers’ Acceptance, any
Letter of Credit or any Note remains outstanding and unpaid or any Bank has any obligation to make any Loans or the Canadian
Banks have any obligation to purchase and accept Bankers’ Acceptances or the Issuing Bank has any obligation to issue, extend or
renew any Letter of Credit. All statements contained in any certificate or other paper delivered by or on behalf of the Borrowers
pursuant hereto shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrowers hereunder.
§21. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATION.
§21.1. Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Agent and each Bank and no Bank may
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the
provisions of §21.2, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of §21.4, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a
security interest pursuant to §21.5, or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of §21.6 (and any other attempted assignment
or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer
upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent
provided by §21.4 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees and the Related Parties of each Agent, the
Issuing Bank and each Bank) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
§21.2. Conditions to Assignment by Banks. Except as provided herein, each Bank may assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, including, as applicable, all or a portion of its
Domestic Commitment Percentage, its Canadian Commitment Percentage, its U.K. Commitment Percentage and/or its PR
Commitment Percentage, its participations in L/C Obligations, Bankers’ Acceptances and Swing Line Loans at the time owing to it,
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(a) Minimum Amounts.
(i) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment and the Loans
at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to
a Bank, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(ii) in any case not described in §21.2(a)(i), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose
includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the
Loans of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and
Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Ryder otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).
(b) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except
that this clause (b) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swing Line Loans.
(c) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by §21.2(a)(ii),
and in addition:
(i) the consent of Ryder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Bank or an
affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund;
(ii) the consent of the applicable Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required
if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Bank, an Affiliate of such Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such
Bank;
(iii) the consent of the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for
any assignment of a Domestic Commitment or for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate
in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and
(iv) the consent of the applicable Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall be required for any assignment of a Domestic Commitment, a Canadian Commitment or a U.K. Commitment, as the
case may be.
(d) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that (i)
the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any
assignment and (ii) the processing and recordation fee of $3,500 shall not apply in the case of an assignment from a Bank to
an Affiliate of such Bank. The assignee, if it is not a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire.
(e) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrowers or any of their
Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a
Bank hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person.
(f) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting
Bank hereunder in whole or in part, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions
thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an
aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the
assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Ryder
and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting
Bank, to each of which the applicable assignee (as evidenced by its execution of the applicable Assignment and Assumption)
and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Bank to the Agents or any Bank hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) in respect
of all or the portion of the Loans, participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and the Commitment of such
Defaulting Bank that is being assigned and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of the Loans and
participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with all or the portion of its Commitment Percentage
that is being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any
Defaulting Bank hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this
paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Bank for all purposes of this Agreement until
such compliance occurs.
Ryder shall not be deemed to have unreasonably withheld its consent for the purposes of this section if it advises the Administrative
Agent and the applicable assignor Bank in good faith of the competitive business reasons why Ryder does not desire a financing
relationship with the proposed assignee.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to §21.3, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and
the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of §6.7,
§6.8, §6.10, §15, §18 and §19 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon
request, each applicable Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Bank. Any assignment or transfer
by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance §21.4. In the case of any
assignments by and between any Bank and any affiliate of such Bank, such Persons shall use their reasonable best efforts to
coordinate the administration of this Agreement and approvals of any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement so as to minimize (to the extent reasonably possible) the administrative burden on the Borrowers.
§21.3. Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Head Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances and L/C
Obligations owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of
designation, of any Bank as
a Defaulting Bank. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and the Banks at any reasonable time and from
time to time, or the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy to Ryder, upon reasonable prior notice.
§21.4. Participations. Any Bank may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than (w) a natural person, (x) a Defaulting Bank, (y) the Borrowers or any of the
Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (z) General Electric Capital Corporation or any affiliate of General Electric Capital
Corporation) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all
or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Bank’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans,
if applicable) owing to it) and/or Bankers’ Acceptances; provided that (i) each such participation shall be in an amount of not less
than $5,000,000, (ii) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (iii) such Bank shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and
the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification that would reduce the principal of or the interest rate on any Loans, L/C Obligations or
Bankers’ Acceptances, extend the term or increase the amount of the Commitment(s) of such Bank as it relates to such participant, if
applicable, reduce the amount of any facility fees to which such participant is entitled, extend any regularly scheduled payment date
for principal or interest or release any Borrower from its Obligations or release Ryder, in its capacity as guarantor, from its
obligations under §5 hereof or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Subject to this §21.4, each Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of §6.7, §6.8, §6.10 and §19 to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to §21.2; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any amounts greater than the
amounts that the selling Bank would have been entitled to receive had it not sold the participation; provided further that a Participant
that would be a Foreign Bank if it were a Bank shall not be entitled to the benefits of §19 unless the Borrowers are notified of the
participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with §6.2 as though it
were a Bank. To the extent permitted by Law, so long as any Bank within 10 Business Days of selling any participation pursuant to
this §21.4 notifies Ryder in writing of such participation and the Participant thereunder, each such identified Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of §14 as though it were a Bank, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to §2.17 and §28 as though it
were a Bank.
§21.5. Certain Pledges. Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under
this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Bank from any of
its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.
§21.6. Special Purpose Funding Vehicle. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Bank (a “Granting
Bank”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of such Granting Bank or an affiliate of
such Granting Bank identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrowers (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to
make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and
(ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall be
obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent
as is required under §6.15(a). Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of
such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of any Borrower under this
Agreement (including its obligations under §6.7, §6.8, §6.10 and §19), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar
payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Bank would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Bank shall for all purposes,
including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Bank of
record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the applicable Commitment of the Granting Bank to the
same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Bank. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees
(which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the
Laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with
notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor,
assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Bank and (ii) disclose on a
confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or
provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
§21.7. [Reserved.]
§21.8. Resignation of Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if at any time the Issuing Bank assigns all of its Commitments and Loans pursuant to §21.2, the Issuing Bank may, upon 45
days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Banks, resign in its capacity as the Issuing Bank. In the event of any such resignation as
Issuing Bank, Ryder, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to appoint from among the Domestic Banks a
successor Issuing Bank hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Ryder to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of the Issuing Bank. If the Issuing Bank resigns in such capacity, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of the
Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit
outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right
to require the Domestic Banks to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to §4.3).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time a Swing Line Lender assigns all of its Commitments and
Loans pursuant to §21.2, such Swing Line Lender may, (i) upon 45 days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Banks, resign in its
capacity as a Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as a Swing Line Lender, Ryder, with the consent of the
Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), shall be entitled to appoint from among the applicable Banks a
successor Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Ryder to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of such Bank as a Swing Line Lender. If a Swing Line Lender resigns in such capacity, it shall retain all the rights of the
Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of
such resignation, including the right to require the Banks to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing
Line Loans pursuant to §2.12, §2.13 and §2.14 herein.
Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the
successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such
succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of such retiring
Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.
§22. PARTIES IN INTEREST. All the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and thereto; provided, that the
Borrowers shall not assign or transfer their rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of each of
the Banks.
§23. Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication.
§23.1. Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by

that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next
business day for the recipient). Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in
§23.2 below, shall be effective as provided in such §23.2.
§23.2. Electronic Communications. Notices, requests and other communications (including any notices or requests under §2,
§3 or §4, but excluding for service of process) to the Banks and the Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by
electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Agents,
provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Bank or Issuing Bank pursuant to §2, §3 or §4 if such Bank or Issuing
Bank, as applicable, has notified the Agents that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Sections by electronic
communication. The Agents or Ryder may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by
electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to
particular notices or communications.
Unless the Agents otherwise prescribe, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received
upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as
available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during
the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of
business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall
be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of
notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.
§23.3. The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS
DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR
THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS
FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY,
NON-
INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY
ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the
Agents or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to any Borrower, any Bank, the Issuing
Bank or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise)
arising out of any Borrower’s or any Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to any Borrower, any
Bank, the Issuing Bank or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct
or actual damages).
§23.4. Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lenders may change
its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.
Each other Bank may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice
to Ryder, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lenders. In addition, each Bank agrees to notify the Agents from time to
time to ensure that the Agents have on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and
electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Bank.
Furthermore, each Public Bank agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Bank to at all times have
selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable
such Public Bank or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Bank’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including
United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the
“Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the
Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.
§23.5. Reliance by Agents, Issuing Bank and Banks. The Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Banks shall be entitled to rely and
act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Requests and Swing Line Loan Requests) purportedly given by or on behalf of any
Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by
any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation
thereof. Ryder shall indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Bank, each Bank and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses,
costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of any
Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Agents may be recorded by the Agents, and each
of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
§23A. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Bank or any Agent or any Borrower to exercise, and no
delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and
remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrowers or any guarantor hereunder or any of them shall be
vested exclusively in, and all
actions and proceedings at Law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent (who shall act, subject to §16, at the direction of the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of
the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary) if, and to the extent, so
directed) for the benefit of all the Banks, the Agents and the Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit
(a) any of the Agents from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an
Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Issuing Bank or any Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights
and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Bank from exercising setoff rights in accordance with §14 (subject to the terms of §2.17
and §6.1), or (d) any Bank from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a
proceeding relative to any Borrower or guarantor under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no
Person acting as Administrative Agent, Canadian Agent or U.K. Agent, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, then (i) the Majority Banks shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to such Agent pursuant to this §23A and (ii) in
addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to §2.17 and §6.1, any Bank may, with
the consent of the Majority Banks, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Majority Banks.
§24. MISCELLANEOUS. The rights and remedies herein expressed are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights
which the Banks, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Agents would otherwise have. The captions in this Agreement
are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit the provisions hereof. This Agreement and any amendment hereof
may be executed in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of which when so executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In proving this Agreement it shall not be necessary to
produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. To the extent
permitted by Law, no course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of any of the Banks or the Agents in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrowers shall entitle the
Borrowers to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any certificate delivered thereunder, by fax transmission or e-mail
transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other
Loan Document or certificate. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically
required to be delivered under the terms of any Loan Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail
transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.
§25. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; ETC. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A)
CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO
ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO
HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
§26. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; Service of Process. THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS ARE CONTRACTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SAID STATE (EXCLUDING THE LAWS
APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW (OTHER THAN THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW
§5-1401 and §5-1402)). EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND
ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING
IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW
YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT,
OR FOR RECOGNITION OR
ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT,
AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE
HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL
JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER
JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS
AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY AGENT, ANY BANK
OR THE ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS
OF ANY JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE U.K. BORROWERS, THE CANADIAN BORROWERS AND RYDER PR HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS RYDER AS ITS AGENT FOR THE SERVICE OF PROCESS. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT
WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW.
§27. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be
held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such
clause or provision, or
part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other
clause or provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this §27, if and to the extent
that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Banks shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as
determined in good faith by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lenders, as applicable, then such provisions shall be
deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
§28. Pari Passu treatment.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each payment or prepayment of principal and interest
received after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder shall be distributed pari passu
among the Banks, in accordance with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Obligations owing to each Bank
divided by the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Obligations.
(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Bank agrees that if it shall,
through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower (pursuant to §14 or otherwise),
including a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from or in lieu of,
such secured claim, received by such Bank under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law or otherwise,
obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of the Notes, Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances, Letters of Credit, L/C
Obligations and other Obligations held by it as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of the Notes and the Obligations
held by it shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Notes and Obligations held by any other Bank,
it shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased from such other Bank a participation in the Notes and Obligations held
by such other Bank, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, Obligations and participations in Notes and
Obligations held by each Bank shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes and
Obligations then outstanding as the principal amount of the Notes and other Obligations held by it prior to such exercise of
banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim was to the principal amount of all Notes and other Obligations outstanding prior to such
exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim; provided, however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments
shall be made pursuant to this §28 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or
purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustments
restored without interest.
(c) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and unless and until the
effectiveness of a transfer of Commitments pursuant to §28(d), each Bank agrees that it shall be deemed to have,
automatically upon the occurrence of such Event of Default, purchased from each other Bank a participation in the risk
associated with the Notes and Obligations held by such other Bank, so that the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes and Obligations held by each Bank shall be equivalent to such Bank’s Total
Commitment Percentage. Upon demand by the Administrative Agent, made at the request of the Majority Banks, each Bank
that has purchased such participation (a “Purchasing Bank”) shall pay the amount of such participation to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Bank whose outstanding Loans and participations in Bankers’ Acceptances and L/C
Obligations exceed their Total Commitment Percentages. Any such participation may, at the option of such Purchasing Bank,
be paid in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euros (the “Funding Currency”) (in an amount equal to the then applicable
Dollar Equivalent, Canadian Dollar Equivalent, Sterling Equivalent or Euro Equivalent, as the case may be, amount of such
participation) and such payment shall be converted by the Administrative Agent at the Exchange Rate into the currency of the
Loan, Bankers’ Acceptance or L/C Obligation in which such participation is being purchased. The Borrowers agree to
indemnify each Purchasing Bank for any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Purchasing Bank as a result of entering into
any reasonable hedging arrangements between the Funding Currency and the currency of the Loan, Bankers’ Acceptance or
L/C Obligation in which such participation is being purchased in connection with the funding of such participation or as a
result of any payment on account of such participation in a currency other than that funded by the Purchasing Bank.
(d) Upon the written instruction of the Majority Banks, the Total U.K. Commitment, Total Canadian Commitment
and the Total PR Commitment shall be immediately transferred by the Borrowers to the Total Domestic Commitment;
provided that (i) no such transfer of Commitments shall occur until the date of the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to
§13.1 and (ii) prior to requesting any such transfer of Commitments, the Agents and the Banks shall utilize their reasonable
best efforts to avoid the imposition of withholding tax liability on Ryder which would arise as a result of any such transfer of
Commitments (including, without limitation, to the extent useful, the use of participations pursuant to §28(c) and the use of
fronting banks in the United Kingdom and Canada). Upon the effectiveness of any such transfer the outstanding U.K. Loans,
Canadian Loans and PR Loans shall be repaid with advances made to Ryder under the Domestic Commitments, advanced by
the Banks in such manner that after giving effect thereto, the percentage of the outstanding Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances and
L/C Obligation of each Bank will equal such Bank’s Total Commitment Percentage of all outstanding Loans, Bankers’
Acceptances and L/C Obligations.
(e) Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Person holding such a
participation in the Notes and the Obligations deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s
lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by such Borrower to such Person as fully as if such
Person had made a Loan directly to such Borrower in the amount of such participation.
§29. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
Each of the Agents, the Banks and the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below),
except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees,
agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed
of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential in accordance with the terms
herein), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory
authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations
or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise
of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially
the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to
any swap or derivative transaction relating to a Borrower and its obligations, (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this §29, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Bank pursuant to §2.1.5, (h) with the
consent of Ryder or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
by such Agent, Bank or Issuing Bank or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Bank, the Issuing Bank or any of
their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Ryder which is authorized to disclose such
Information. In the case of (b) (except disclosure to governmental banking regulatory authorities) or (c) of this paragraph, the
applicable Agent or Bank or the Issuing Bank shall, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, provide prompt written notice
to Ryder so that Ryder may have the opportunity to contest such disclosure and such Agent or Bank or the Issuing Bank shall use
reasonable efforts within Law to maintain the confidentiality of such Information.
Except as otherwise agreed to herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, each of the Agents, the Issuing Bank and each Bank
agrees that it will not, and it will use their best efforts to cause its agents, employees, advisors or any other Persons retained or
engaged by such Agent or any such Bank, as the case may be (collectively, “Advisors”), not to, issue or release for external
publication any article or advertising or publicity matter relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the
prior written consent of Ryder.
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Ryder or any Subsidiary relating to Ryder or any
Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, all data, reports,
interpretations, forecasts and records, regardless of storage and transmission media or source, and all information derived, directly or
indirectly, therefrom, which such Person or its Advisors obtains or to which such Person or its Advisors shall be afforded access in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, but other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Bank or the Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure
by Ryder or any Subsidiary. Any such Information shall be held and treated
by such Person in utmost and strictest confidence, and shall not, without the prior written consent of Ryder (which consent may be
given or withheld in Ryder’s sole discretion), be disclosed by such Person or any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, or used by
such Person, other than in accordance with this Section, and such Person shall use its best efforts to cause its Advisors to hold and
treat such Information in utmost and strictest confidence and not to disclose or use such Information other than in accordance with
this Section. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to
have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of
such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-
public information concerning Ryder or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the
use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable
Law, including United States Federal and state securities laws.

Each Bank, each Issuing Bank and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank or Issuing Bank) that is subject to the
PATRIOT Act (as hereinafter defined) and each of the Agents (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank or Issuing Bank) hereby

law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers
and their respective Subsidiaries, which information includes the name and address of each such Person and other information that

Each Borrower shall, promptly following a request by any Agent, any Bank or any Issuing Bank, provide all documentation and
other information with respect to the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries that such Agent, such Bank or such Issuing Bank
requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws,
including the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
§31. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Borrower
and each guarantor hereunder acknowledges and agrees, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement
provided by the Agents and the Co-Lead Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between such Borrower, each
guarantor hereunder and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Co-Lead Arrangers, on the other hand,
(B) each of such Borrower and guarantor hereunder has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent
it has deemed appropriate, and (C) such Borrower and guarantor hereunder is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the

Co-Lead Arrangers each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant
parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for such Borrower, any guarantor hereunder or
any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agents nor the Co-Lead Arrangers has any obligation to

obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers, any guarantor hereunder or any of their respective Affiliates. To the

connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
§32. Transitional arrangements. On the Closing Date, this Agreement shall amend, restate and supersede the Existing Credit
Agreement in its entirety, except as provided in this §32. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by
the Existing
Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All references to the Existing Credit
Agreement in any Loan Document or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed to refer to this
Agreement and the provisions hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the extent necessary, the Banks and the
Agents reserve all of their rights under the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated by this Agreement.
All interest and fees and expenses, if any, owing or accruing under or in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement through the
Closing Date shall be calculated as of the Closing Date (pro-rated in the case of any fractional periods), and shall be paid on the
Closing Date. Commencing on the Closing Date, all fees hereunder shall be payable by the Borrowers to the Agents for the account
of the Banks in accordance with this Agreement.
§33. ELECTRONIC EXECUTION; ELECTRONIC RECORDS . This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval,
consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a
“Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be
executed using Electronic Signatures. The Borrowers agree that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication
shall be valid and binding on the Borrowers to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered
into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrowers enforceable against such in
accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any
Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic
counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under
this §33 may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the each of the Agents and each of the Banks of a manually signed
paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed
Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Each of the Agents and each of the Banks
may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic
Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper
document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original
for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, no Agent is under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format
unless expressly agreed to by such Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a)
to the extent the Agents have agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Agents and each of the Banks shall be entitled to rely
on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower without further verification and (b) upon the
request of any Agent or any Bank, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For
purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC
§7006, as it may be amended from time to time.
§34. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of AFFECTED Financial Institutions . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto
acknowledges that any liability of any Bank or any Issuing Bank that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan
Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable
Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-
Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable
to it by any Bank or any Issuing Bank that is an Affected Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such
liability, including, if applicable, (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a
portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking,
or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership
will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the
applicable Resolution Authority.
§35. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide
support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any swap contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support,
“QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree that, with respect to the
resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-
Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special
Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable
notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of
New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States), in the event a Covered Entity that is party to a
Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of
such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC
and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such
Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the
Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of
the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes
subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise
apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be
exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the
Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without
limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Bank
shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
