(RTTNews) - Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (HTZ), a rental car company, said on Thursday that its wholly-owned indirect subsidiary, The Hertz Corporation, has inked a deal to sell $375 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% exchangeable senior notes due 2030.

With this, the private offering was increased from the previously announced $250 million.

The company has also granted the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase up to an additional $50 million of notes. The offering is expected to close on or about September 29.
