ITEM 3.           SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS
                  OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

         This Amendment No. 3 is filed as a result of the execution of Voting
Agreements (the "Voting Agreements"), dated as of July 20, 1999, by KHLP, Mr.
Kirk, HILP, HFI, the O'Neal Trust and Mr. O'Neal. No payments are required to
be made by the Reporting Persons in connection with the Voting Agreement.

ITEM 4.           PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

                  The Voting Agreements were entered into in connection with the
execution of the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 20, 1999
(the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among the Issuer, NR Holdings Limited, a
Caymen Islands corporation, and NR Investments Limited, a Cayman Islands
corporation (collectively the "Purchasers"). The Voting Agreements were entered
into as an inducement and a condition to the Purchasers' entering into the
Purchase Agreement.

                  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Purchasers agreed to
purchase 100,000 shares of the Issuer's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,
par value $.01 per share, (the "Preferred Stock") for an aggregate purchase
price of $100 million. Purchasers purchased 78,000 shares of Preferred Stock on
July 20, 1999 for $78,000,000. Purchasers will purchase the remaining shares in
a Second Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) after certain conditions
have been satisfied or waived, including approval of the Issuer's stockholders
and other closing conditions.

                  In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers,
Messrs. Kirk and Huizenga, and the Issuer also entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Purchasers
are entitled to certain demand, and piggyback registration rights and tag-along
rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock.

                  To effect the Purchase Agreement, each of the Reporting
Persons has agreed, pursuant to the Voting Agreements, at any meeting of the
stockholders of the Issuer, any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in
connection with any written consent of the Issuer's stockholders in lieu of such
a meeting, to vote (or cause to be voted) the shares of Common Stock owned or
controlled by the Reporting Persons in favor of the sale of Preferred Stock to
the Purchasers. The Reporting Persons have also granted irrevocable proxies to
Purchasers' representatives to vote in favor of the sale of Preferred Stock to
the Purchasers.

                  The Voting Agreements terminate upon the earlier of (a) the
termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms or (b) the
consummation of the Second Closing.

                  Under the terms of the Voting Agreements, if a Reporting
Person acquires the right to vote any additional shares of Common Stock, the
Voting Agreement shall be applicable to such additional shares. The Voting
Agreements also provide that if the Reporting Persons transfer any shares, they
will obtain from the transferee and deliver to the Purchasers a Voting
Agreement in the same form as the Voting Agreements signed by the Reporting
Persons.

                           VOTING AGREEMENT AND PROXY

         For the purpose of inducing NR Holdings Limited and NR Investments
Limited, each a corporation organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands
(together, the "Purchasers"), to enter into a Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with NationsRent, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("NRI"), pursuant to which NRI will agree to issue to the
Purchasers, and the Purchasers will agree to purchase from NRI, subject to the
conditions set forth therein, an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, of NRI for an aggregate
purchase price of $100 million, the undersigned stockholder of NRI:

         (a)      hereby agrees with the Purchasers that, at any meeting of
                  NRI's stockholders called for the purpose of acting upon
                  approval of the transaction contemplated by the Purchase
                  Agreement (the "Transaction"), and at any adjournment or
                  postponement thereof, or in connection with any written
                  consent of NRI's stockholders in lieu of such a meeting, the
                  undersigned will vote all shares of capital stock of NRI
                  owned or controlled by the undersigned, whether now owned or
                  controlled or hereafter acquired or controlled (the
                  "Shares"), in favor of approval of the Transaction; and

         (b)      hereby appoints Christopher J. O'Brien and Charles J.
                  Philippin, and each of them, as the proxy of the undersigned,
                  each with full power of substitution, to vote all of the
                  Shares on behalf of the undersigned at any meeting of
                  stockholders of NRI called for the purpose of acting upon the
                  Transaction, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof,
                  with the same force and effect as such vote would have if the
                  undersigned were personally present at such meeting, in favor
                  of approval of the Transaction. This proxy, being coupled
                  with an interest, is irrevocable.

         The undersigned agrees that in connection with any transfer of any of
the Shares by the undersigned, it will obtain from the transferee and deliver
to the Purchasers an executed Voting Agreement and Proxy in the form hereof.
The undersigned acknowledges that NRI has agreed not to permit any such
transfer unless the undersigned has complied with the foregoing requirements.
This Agreement shall terminate and the proxy granted hereby shall expire upon
the earlier of (a) termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its
terms or (b) the consummation of the Second Closing (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this as of this
20th day of July, 1999.

                          REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

         This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and
entered into as of July   , 1999 by and between NATIONSRENT, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("NationsRent"), NR Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation,
and NR Investments Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (collectively, the
"Holders"), and James L. Kirk and H. Wayne Huizenga. Certain other capitalized
terms used herein are defined in Section 10 and throughout this Agreement.

         WHEREAS, NationsRent and the Holders have entered into a Preferred
Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of July   , 1999 (the "Stock Purchase
Agreement"), pursuant to which NationsRent agrees to issue 100,000 shares of its
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Preferred
Stock") to the Holders; and

         WHEREAS, the Preferred Stock is convertible into NationsRent common
stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), as provided in the Stock
Purchase Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, NationsRent has agreed to provide to the Holders the
registration rights provided herein with respect to the Registrable Securities;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
and agreements set forth herein and in the Stock Purchase Agreement, the parties
agree as follows:

1.       DEMAND REGISTRATION.

                  (a) REGISTRATION ON REQUEST. At any time after the 90th day
following the First Closing (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement), upon
written request by the Holders of at least a majority (by number of shares) of
the Registrable Securities, NationsRent shall utilize best reasonable efforts to
cause, as soon as practicable following the date of such notice, a registration
statement to be filed under the Securities Act or a pending registration
statement to be amended for the purpose of registering the Registrable
Securities for resale by the requesting Holders in accordance with the intended
method of disposition stated in such request; provided that NationsRent shall
not be required to effect any registration pursuant to this Section 1(a) on more
than three (3) separate occasions. Each request for a demand registration shall
specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be
registered and the anticipated per share price range for such offering.
NationsRent shall give all other Holders written notice of such written request
within ten (10) days thereof and give all other Holders the opportunity to
request that their Registrable Securities be included in the registration
statement filed with the SEC. No request for registration may be made pursuant
to this Section 1(a) unless the Registrable Securities requested to be
registered on behalf of requesting Holders total at least 25% of the aggregate
number of Registrable Securities acquired by the Holders in the First Closing
and the Second Closing (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) or have a
market value (based upon the closing price of such Registrable Securities quoted
on the securities exchange or over-the-counter quotation system on which such
Registrable Securities are listed or



<PAGE>   2




quoted, as the case may be, on the trading day immediately preceding any request
pursuant to this Section 1(a)) of at least $25 million at the close of the last
trading day prior to such request.

                  (b) REGISTRATION STATEMENT FORM. Registrations under Section
1(a) shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC as shall permit
the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method or methods of disposition specified in the request for such registration
and as shall be permitted under the Securities Act.

                  (c) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT. A registration requested
pursuant to Section 1(a) shall be deemed to have been effected if a registration
statement with respect thereto has become effective, provided that a
registration statement which does not become effective after NationsRent has
filed a registration statement with respect thereto solely by reason of the
refusal by the Holders to proceed (other than a refusal to proceed based upon
the written advice of counsel relating to a material matter regarding the
Company) shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of
such Holders, unless (i) after it has become effective, such registration
statement becomes subject to any stop order, injunction or other order or
requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any
reason, other than by reason of an act or omission attributable to such Holders
with respect thereto; provided that upon the lifting of any such order
registration will be deemed to be effective, or (ii) unless the conditions to
closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered
into in connection with such registration are not satisfied, other than by
reason of an act or omission attributable to such Holders.

                  (d) SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. If a requested registration
pursuant to Section 1(a) involves an underwritten public offering, the managing
or lead underwriter shall be selected by NationsRent and shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Holders of at least a majority (by number of shares) of the
Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested, which shall
not unreasonably withhold its acceptance of any such underwriters, and one
co-managing or co-lead underwriter shall be selected by the Holders of at least
a majority (by number of shares) of the Registrable Securities as to which
registration has been requested and shall be reasonably acceptable to
NationsRent, which shall not unreasonably withhold its acceptance of any such
co-managing or co-lead underwriter.

                  (e) PRIORITY ON DEMAND REGISTRATIONS. If a requested
registration pursuant to Section 1(a) involves an underwritten public offering
and the managing or lead underwriter advises NationsRent in writing, with a copy
to each Holder requesting registration, that in its opinion the number of
securities requested to be included in such registration (including securities
to be sold by NationsRent or by other persons who are not Holders of Registrable
Securities) exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in an orderly
manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Holders of at
least a majority (by number of shares) of the Registrable Securities to be
included in such registration without adversely affecting the marketability of
the offering, NationsRent shall include in such registration prior to the
inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such
underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such
offering, pro rata among the respective Holders


                                      - 2 -


<PAGE>   3


thereof on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities requested by each
such Holder to be included in such offering.

                  (f) RESTRICTIONS ON DEMAND REGISTRATION. NationsRent shall not
be obligated to effect any registration pursuant to Section 1(a) during any of
the following periods: (i) 30 days prior to the anticipated commencement of an
underwritten public offering by NationsRent of its equity securities and 90 days
subsequent to the consummation of such underwritten public offering unless, in
the good faith judgment of the managing or lead underwriter or underwriters
thereof, which is confirmed in writing, such filing would not have an adverse
effect on such offering, (ii) if such filing is prohibited by applicable law or
(iii) if NationsRent determines in good faith that the filing or effectiveness
of such registration statement would require NationsRent to disclose a material
financing, acquisition or other corporate transaction or development, and the
proper officers of NationsRent shall have determined in good faith that such
disclosure is not in the best interests of NationsRent, provided that
NationsRent may not delay the filing or effectiveness of any registration
statement pursuant to this Section 1(f) for more than an aggregate of 180 days
in any twelve-month period; provided, further, that NationsRent shall file the
registration statement and cause it to become effective as soon as reasonably
practicable after it shall determine in its good faith judgment that such
registration will not materially interfere with or materially adversely affect
the financing, acquisition or other corporate transaction or development.

2.       PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION.

                  (a) RIGHT TO PIGGYBACK. The Holders of the Registrable
Securities are hereby granted the following piggyback registration rights with
respect to the Registrable Securities. Whenever NationsRent proposes to file a
registration statement, other than pursuant to Section 1(a) above, for the
registration of shares of its Common Stock in connection with an underwritten
primary public offering on behalf of NationsRent or an underwritten secondary
public offering on behalf of other persons who are not the Holders of
Registrable Securities, NationsRent will, prior to such filing, give fifteen
(15) days prior written notice to the Holders of its intention to do so and,
upon the written request of the Holders given within ten (10) days after receipt
of such notice, NationsRent shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, use
its best reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities which
NationsRent has been requested to register by such Holders to be registered
under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale. If, at
any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities
and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in
connection with such registration, NationsRent shall determine for any reason
(other than by reason of acts or omissions attributable to any of the Holders)
either not to register or to delay registration of such securities, NationsRent
may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder
and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be
relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection
with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration
Expenses in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of
any Holders entitled to do so to request that such registration be effected as a
registration under Section 1(a), and (ii) in the case of a determination to
delay registration, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable
Securities, for the same period as the delay

                                      - 3 -


<PAGE>   4




in registering such other securities. No registration effected under this
Section 2(a) shall relieve NationsRent of its obligation to effect any
registration upon request under Section 1(a), nor shall any such registration
hereunder be deemed to have been effected pursuant to Section 1(a).

                  (b) PRIORITY IN PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. In a requested
registration pursuant to Section 2(a), if the managing or lead underwriters
advise NationsRent in writing that in their opinion the number of securities
requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be
sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to
NationsRent or the other persons who are not Holders of Registrable Securities,
who requested the filing of a registration statement pursuant to Section 2(a)
above, NationsRent shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities
NationsRent proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities and
securities held by other persons who are not Holders of Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Holders of
Registrable Securities and the other persons who are not holders of Registered
Securities on the basis of the number of shares requested by each such Holder of
Registrable Securities and each other person who is not a Holder of Registrable
Securities to be included in such offering.

3.       HOLDBACK AGREEMENTS.

                  (a) So long as a Holder and its affiliates own Common Stock
and/or Preferred Stock convertible into Common Stock exceeding 5% of the Common
Stock of NationsRent then outstanding or such Holder has the right to designate
one or more directors to the board of directors of NationsRent (unless otherwise
required by the underwriters), such Holder of Registrable Securities shall not
effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144) of
equity securities of NationsRent, or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven (7) days prior
to and the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten
registration (except as part of such underwritten registration), unless the
underwriters managing the registered public offering agree to a shorter
restricted period for Messrs. Kirk or Huizenga.

                  (b) NationsRent (i) shall not effect any public sale or
distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven (7) days prior
to and during the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any
underwritten demand registration or any underwritten piggyback registration
(except as part of such underwritten registration), unless the underwriters
managing the registered public offering otherwise agree, and (ii) shall use best
reasonable efforts to cause each holder of at least 5% (on a fully-diluted
basis) of its Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for Common Stock, purchased or acquired from NationsRent at any
time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public
offering) to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution (including
sales pursuant to Rule 144) of any such securities during such period (except as
part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted), unless the
underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.

4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. Whenever the Holders of Registrable Securities have
requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this
Agreement, NationsRent




                                       - 4 -
<PAGE>   5

shall use its best reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of
such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of
disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto NationsRent shall as expeditiously as
possible:

                  (a) prepare and as soon as reasonably practicable file with
the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and
use its best reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become
and remain effective (provided that before filing a registration statement or
prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, NationsRent shall furnish
to the counsel selected by the Holders of at least a majority (by number of
shares) of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement
copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be
subject to the review and comment of such counsel);

                  (b) notify each seller of Registrable Securities of the
effectiveness of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and
file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement
and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
registration statement effective for a period of not less than 180 days and
comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition
of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in
accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set
forth in such registration statement;

                  (c) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities such
number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement
thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each
preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities
owned by such seller;

                  (d) use its best reasonable efforts to register or qualify
such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts
and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller
to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller
in such jurisdictions (provided that NationsRent shall not be required to (i)
qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself
to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of
process in any such jurisdiction);

                  (e) notify each seller of such Registrable Securities, at any
time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the
prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, and, at the request of any such
seller, NationsRent shall promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such
prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the





                                     - 5 -
<PAGE>   6

statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they
were made;

                  (f) use its best reasonable efforts to cause all such
Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which
securities of the same class are then listed;

                  (g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such
Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration
statement;

                  (h) enter into such customary agreements (including
underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions
(including, without limitation, causing at least one member of senior management
of NationsRent to participate in any "road show" or "road shows") as the sellers
of at least a majority (by number of shares) of the Registrable Securities being
sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or
facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

                  (i) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable
Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such
registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by
any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of NationsRent, and cause NationsRent's
officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all
information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney,
accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

                  (j) otherwise use its best reasonable efforts to comply with
all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its
stockholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering
the period of at least twelve months beginning with the first day of
NationsRent's first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the
registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

                  (k) if and to the extent that any seller of Registrable
Securities, in its sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an
underwriter or a controlling person of NationsRent, permit such seller to
participate in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and
require the insertion therein of material, furnished to NationsRent in writing,
which in the reasonable judgment of such seller and its counsel should be
included;

                  (l) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or
preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of
any Common Stock included in such registration statement for sale in any
jurisdiction, use its best reasonable efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal
of such order;

                  (m) use its best reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary
to enable the sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities; and



                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>   7

                  (n) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities a cold
comfort letter from NationsRent's independent public accountants in customary
form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by cold comfort
letters as the sellers of at least a majority (by number of shares) of the
Registrable Securities being sold reasonably request, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to such Holder.

                  NationsRent will not file any registration statement or
amendment thereto or any prospectus or any supplement thereto (including such
documents incorporated by reference and proposed to be filed after the initial
filing of the registration statement) to which the Holders of at least a
majority (by number of shares) of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement or the underwriter or underwriters, if any, shall
reasonably object, provided that NationsRent may file such document in a form
required by law upon the advice of its counsel.

5. REGISTRATION EXPENSES. NationsRent will pay or cause to be paid all
Registration Expenses (as defined below) in connection with any registration of
Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Agreement. "Registration
Expenses" means all expenses incident to NationsRent's performance of or
compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation, all registration
and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky
laws, listing expenses, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees
and disbursements of custodians, fees and disbursements of counsel for
NationsRent and all independent certified public accountants, underwriters
(excluding discounts and commissions) and other persons retained by NationsRent
and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel chosen by the Holders
of at least a majority (by number of shares) of the Registrable Securities
included in such registration. Registration Expenses shall not include any taxes
payable in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities.

6.       INDEMNIFICATION.

                  (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY NATIONSRENT. NationsRent agrees to
indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable
Securities, its officers, directors, partners, members, affiliates and each
person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or
based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in
any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and, except as otherwise provided herein, NationsRent
will reimburse such Holder, officer, director, partner, member, affiliate and
controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by
them in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim.
damage, liability or expense, except insofar as the same arise from or are based
upon any information made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information provided to NationsRent by such Holder expressly for use therein or
by such Holder's failure to deliver a copy of the final prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto after NationsRent has furnished such Holder
with a sufficient number of





                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>   8

copies of the same. In connection with an underwritten offering, NationsRent
shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each person
who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the
same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders
of Registrable Securities.

                  (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE HOLDERS. In connection with any
registration statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is
participating, each such Holder shall furnish to NationsRent in writing such
information and affidavits as NationsRent reasonably requests for use in
connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent
permitted by law, shall indemnify NationsRent, its directors and officers and
each person who controls NationsRent (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or
based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in
the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or
omission is made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to NationsRent by such Holder specifically stating that it is for use
in the preparation of such registration statement, prospectus or preliminary
prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided that the obligation to indemnify
shall be individual, not joint and several, for each Holder and shall be limited
to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. In connection
with an underwritten offering, the selling Holders of Registrable Securities
shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each person
who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the
same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of
NationsRent.

                  (c) NOTICE OF CLAIMS. Any person entitled to indemnification
hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any
claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure
to give prompt notice shall not impair any person's right to indemnification
hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party)
and (ii) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of
interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with
respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of
such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party;
provided, however, that any indemnified party may, at its own expense, retain
separate counsel to participate in such defense. If such defense is assumed, the
indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made
by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the
indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability
in respect to such claim or litigation or which requires action other than the
payment of money by the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party who is not
entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties
indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the
reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist
between such





                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>   9

indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such
claim.

                  (d) SURVIVAL OF INDEMNIFICATION. The indemnification provided
for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer,
director, partner, member, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified
party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

                  (e) CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in this
Section 6 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense referred to herein, then each indemnifying party,
in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by NationsRent on the one hand and the Holder or
other person, as the case may be, on the other from the distribution of the
Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of NationsRent on the one hand and of the Holder or other person,
as the case may be, on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by
NationsRent on the one hand and the Holder or other person, as the case may be,
on the other in connection with the distribution of the Registrable Securities
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds received
by NationsRent from the initial sale of the Registrable Securities by
NationsRent to the Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement bear to the
gain, if any, realized by the selling Holder or the underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the underwriter, as the case may be. The relative fault
of NationsRent on the one hand and of the Holder or other person, as the case
may be, on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by NationsRent, by the
Holder or by the other person and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission, provided that the foregoing contribution agreement shall not inure to
the benefit of any indemnified party if indemnification would be unavailable to
such indemnified party by reason of the provisions contained in the first
sentence of Section 6(a), and in no event shall the obligation of any
indemnifying party to contribute under this Section 6(e) exceed the amount that
such indemnifying party would have been obligated to pay by way of
indemnification if the indemnification provided for under this Section 6 had
been available under the circumstances.

         The Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(e)
were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders and any underwriters
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to
include, subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence and
Section 6(c), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such






                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>   10

indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action
or claim.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(e), no Holder of
Registrable Securities or underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the amount by which (i) in the case of any such Holder, the net
proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities or (ii)
in the case of an underwriter, the total price at which the Registrable
Securities purchased by it and distributed to the public were offered to the
public exceeds, in any such case, the amount of any damages that such Holder or
underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

7. PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. No Holder may participate in any
registration hereunder which involves an underwritten offering unless such
Holder (i) agrees to sell such Holder's securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting arrangements approved by the parties entitled hereunder to approve
such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required
under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided that no Holder of
Registrable Securities included in any underwritten registration shall be
required to make any representations or warranties to NationsRent or the
underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such Holder
and such Holder's intended method of distribution) or to undertake any
indemnification obligations to NationsRent or the underwriters with respect
thereto, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 6 hereof.

8. OTHER AGREEMENTS. NationsRent shall not enter into any agreement or
instrument which would conflict with or result in a material breach or violation
of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. In addition, NationsRent
shall not enter into any agreement or instrument with any person which grants
such person demand registration rights similar to those in Section 1(a) which
preclude the Holders of Registrable Securities from exercising their rights
pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof in connection with any registration statement
filed pursuant to which such person will sell securities of NationsRent.

9. TAG-ALONG RIGHTS.

                           pledge as security in a bona fide loan transaction
                           and any related foreclosure or margin sales) which
                           involves the sale by any Huizenga Stockholder or Kirk
                           Stockholder, or both, of shares of Common Stock,

                           shares of Common Stock, including but not limited to
                           the Registrable Securities.

                  (b) TAG-ALONG RIGHT. Prior to the fifth anniversary of the
Second Closing, in connection with any proposed Tag-Along Sale, the Huizenga
Stockholders and the Kirk Stockholders participating in such sale shall afford
the Holders (pro rata among such Holders) the opportunity to participate in such
sale, on the same terms and conditions as such Huizenga Stockholders and Kirk
Stockholders, with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
number derived by multiplying the total number of shares proposed to be sold in
the Tag-Along Sale by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of
shares of Common Stock then held by the Holders (including shares issuable upon
the conversion of shares of Preferred Stock) and the denominator of which is the
sum of (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock then held by the Holders
(including shares issuable upon the conversion of shares of Preferred Stock),
(ii) the total number of Huizenga Shares then held by the Huizenga Stockholders
if any Huizenga Stockholder is participating in such sale and (iii) the total
number of Kirk Shares then held by the Kirk Stockholders if any Kirk Stockholder
is participating in such sale.

                  (c) NOTICES. The Huizenga Stockholders or the Kirk
Stockholders participating in any Tag-Along Sale shall, at least five (5) days
prior to the Tag-Along Sale, give written notice to the Holders providing a
summary of the terms of the proposed sale and the number of Huizenga Shares and
Kirk Shares proposed to be sold in such Tag-Along Sale. Each Holder may exercise
its right to participate in such Tag-Along Sale by providing written notice to






                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>   12

any of the Huizenga Stockholders or Kirk Stockholders participating in such
Tag-Along Sale, stating the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder
wishes to sell the Tag-Along Sale. If no Tag-Along Notice is received by the
Huizenga Stockholders or the Kirk Stockholders in the five (5) day period prior
to the proposed sale, the Huizenga Stockholders and the Kirk Stockholders shall
have the right for a 30-day period to sell up to the proposed number of shares
