On February 22, 2012, the Board approved the grant of options under Zipcar's 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan") to certain of Zipcar's named executive officers as follows:

Name                                Shares Underlying Options (#)

These options were granted with an exercise price of $13.28 per share, equal to the closing price of Zipcar's common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the effective date of grant, February 23, 2012. Each of the options will vest as to 2.0833% of the number of shares underlying the option at the end of each successive month following the date of grant. These options were issued pursuant to the Option Agreements (described below) and provide for vesting acceleration of 25% of unvested shares in the case of a change in control of Zipcar and additional vesting acceleration of 100% of the shares in the event the option holder's employment is terminated in certain circumstances within 12 months following a change in control.

Forms of Option Agreements

On February 16, 2012, the Board approved revisions to the form of incentive stock option agreement and a nonqualified stock option agreement (the "Option Agreements") pursuant to which stock options will be granted to Zipcar employees under the 2011 Plan. The revised Option Agreements provide, among other things, that:

--        any portion of an option that is unvested at the time of an employee's termination of service with Zipcar will be forfeited to Zipcar; and

The revised Option Agreements include an optional change in control provision, which provides for vesting acceleration of 25% of unvested shares in the case of a change in control of Zipcar and additional vesting acceleration of 100% of the shares in the event the option holder's employment is terminated in certain circumstances within 12 months following a change in control.

2012 Leadership Team Variable Compensation Plan

On February 22, 2012, the Board approved a 2012 Leadership Team Variable Compensation Plan (the "Variable Compensation Plan") for named executive officers and other employees who report directly to our chief executive officer (the "Leadership Team"). The Variable Compensation Plan is designed to motivate the Leadership Team to achieve specified performance objectives for the 2012 fiscal year and to reward them for their achievement assuming those objectives are met.

Awards. The compensation committee has established the following target variable compensation amounts for each named executive officer:

No variable compensation payments will be made with respect to a financial target unless at least 90% of the target is achieved for revenue or at least 75% of the target is achieved for adjusted EBITDA. Variable compensation payouts will be calculated on a straight line basis. If Zipcar achieves at least 90% of the revenue target and at least 75% of the adjusted EBITDA target, then to the extent the achievement of either financial target is greater than 100%, variable compensation payouts associated with such target may exceed 100% and additional variable compensation amounts will be calculated on a straight line basis.

Distribution. The awards will be paid in cash. Payment of the awards, if any, will be made after the completion of the 2012 fiscal year, as promptly as practicable following the completion of the audit for the 2012 fiscal year.

The foregoing description of the Variable Compensation Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual Variable Compensation Plan, which is attached hereto as exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Amendments to Offer Letters

On February 22, 2012, the Board also approved revisions to the payments to be provided to Messrs. Griffith, Norman and Goldfinger in the event of termination of employment in connection with a change of control. Accordingly, the offer letter agreements with each of Messrs. Griffith, Norman and Goldfinger were amended to reflect such changes as well as the other compensation changes described herein. With respect to the payments in connection with a change of control, Mr. Griffith's amendment provides that if Mr. Griffith's employment is terminated by Zipcar without cause or he terminates his employment with good reason (each as defined in his offer letter) within 12 months following a change in control of Zipcar, Mr. Griffith is entitled to payment of 24 months of his then current base salary plus 200% of his target bonus for the year during which he is terminated. For Messrs. Norman and Goldfinger, the amendments provide that if such executive's employment is terminated by Zipcar without cause or such executive terminates his employment with good reason within 12 months following a change in control of Zipcar, the executive officer is entitled to payment of 12 months of his then current base salary plus 100% of his target bonus for the year during which he is terminated.
