Explanation of responses
- F1On October 2, 2017, pursuant to an Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") by and among Neff Corporation (the "Issuer"), Neff Holdings LLC ("Holdings"), the holders of options ("LLC Optionsholders") to purchase common units of Holdings ("Neff Holdings LLC Units"), and Mark Irion, in his capacity as management representative, immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined in the URI Merger Agreement, as defined below), all Neff Holdings LLC Units owned by the LLC Optionsholders, after giving effect to the exercise of the options to purchase Neff Holdings LLC Units held by the LLC Optionsholders (the "LLC Options Exercises"), were redeemed for shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock.
- F10The Unvested Options would have vested in four equal annual installments beginning on December 9, 2017.

- F2In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the number of Neff Holdings LLC Units the LLC Optionsholders received in the LLC Options Exercises was reduced by the number of Neff Holdings LLC Units having a value (equal to the Merger Consideration, as defined in the URI Merger Agreement) equal to the sum of the aggregate exercise price of the options to purchase Neff Holdings LLC Units being exercised by such LLC Optionsholder plus the minimum tax withholding required in connection with the exercise of the options to purchase Neff Holdings LLC Units held by such LLC Optionsholder (with such Neff Holdings LLC Units so withheld to pay such exercise price and tax withholding to be treated as if they were provided to the applicable LLC Optionsholder).

- F5On October 2, 2017, pursuant to the URI Merger Agreement, all unvested restricted stock unit awards in respect of shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock ("Unvested RSUs") outstanding at the Effective Time (as defined in the URI Merger Agreement) were cancelled and in consideration for the cancellation of such Unvested RSUs, United Rentals, Inc. issued to the holders of such Unvested RSUs an award of time-vesting restricted stock units ("Substitute RSUs") relating to the number of shares of United Rentals, Inc.
- F6Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Issuer Class A Common Stock with respect to which such Unvested RSUs were unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the URI Merger Agreement), and which generally are subject to the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, any time-based vesting schedule) as applied to the Unvested RSUs in respect of which such Substitute RSUs were granted, provided that any performance vesting condition was waived.
