We serve and delight our customers by providing premium, innovative, high performing equipment that delivers quality over the entire product lifecycle. PARTNER WITH CUSTOMERS. We seek to develop a deep understanding of our customers, to anticipate their needs and fulfill them; to continually improve our customers’ experience. AROUND THE GLOBE, AROUND THE CLOCK.

That is our mission, every single day. While economic conditions continued to provide challenges for many companies around the globe this past year, Oshkosh Corporation was mission driven to deliver life saving M-ATVs to U.S. troops in Afghanistan leading to stellar financial results in fiscal 2010. Revenues for fiscal 2010 were $9.8 billion, an increase of 87% from fiscal 2009. Operating income from continuing operations rose to $1.4 billion and EPS was $8.72. Each of these financial measures is an all-time record for Oshkosh Corporation. We also remained focused on our goal of debt reduction, reducing debt by nearly $736 million in the fiscal year. Our defense segment was paramount in delivering these results, accounting for a substantial portion of the company’s revenue this fiscal year, including nearly $4.5 billion from the M-ATV contract. Our fire & emergency segment posted results which were essentially on par with the prior year, despite very challenging market conditions for fire apparatus. Our businesses with exposure to construction markets, access equipment, concrete mixers and batch plants, continued to be pressured by economic weakness in North America and Europe as residential construction activity bounced along the bottom and non-residential construction continued to decline. MISSION DRIVEN: SUPERIOR EXECUTION, SUPERIOR SOLUTIONS Execution is critical on every mission. Oshkosh’s performance on the M-ATV program is a superb example of delivering a superior solution for the customer. Oshkosh was aggressive in leveraging synergies and capabilities between our segments to deliver these critically needed vehicles. We utilized available manufacturing capacity at our access equipment facilities to supplement capacity in our defense facilities. This helped us to quickly ramp up production to the unprecedented requirement for Oshkosh of 1,000 vehicles per month, and then sustain that required high rate of quality production to deliver these life-saving M-ATVs to our warfighters in Afghanistan. According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, who visited Oshkosh in November 2009, the hard work and incredible efforts of our employees in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, supported by our supply chain partners, allowed us to ramp up this program faster and more effectively than any other major defense vehicle program since World War II. In addition to our strong performance on the M-ATV program, we continued to meet or exceed requirements for our other vehicle and aftermarket parts and service programs for our domestic and international defense customers. We installed our proprietary TAK-4® independent suspension systems on legacy MRAPs of other manufacturers to further support our warfighters by upgrading the mobility, maneuverability and ride quality of those MRAPs. Whether providing vehicles or components to support the customer, we work hard every day to deliver on every aspect of our business. While we are pleased with our performance on the M-ATV program, we are every bit as excited as we begin ramping up work on the Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) program. Despite a delay caused by competitors’ protests, we met all of the U.S. Army’s original planned milestone dates for test units and evaluations. Additionally, we completed construction of

    November 4, 2016 Marc S. Gerber Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP [email protected] Re: Oshkosh Corporation Incoming letter dated September 20, 2016 Dear Mr. Gerber: This is in response to your letter dated September 20, 2016 concerning the shareholder proposal submitted to Oshkosh by John Chevedden. Copies of all of the correspondence on which this response is based will be made available on our website at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/cf-noaction/14a-8.shtml. For your reference, a brief discussion of the Division’s informal procedures regarding shareholder proposals is also available at the same website address. Sincerely, Matt S. McNair Senior Special Counsel Enclosure cc: John Chevedden ***FISMA & OMB Memorandum M-07-16*** November 4, 2016 Response of the Office of Chief Counsel Division of Corporation Finance Re: Oshkosh Corporation Incoming letter dated September 20, 2016 The proposal asks the board to amend certain provisions of the company’s proxy access bylaw in the manner specified in the proposal. There appears to be some basis for your view that Oshkosh may exclude the proposal under rule 14a-8(i)(10). Based on the information you have presented, it appears that Oshkosh’s policies, practices and procedures compare favorably with the guidelines of the proposal and that Oshkosh has, therefore, substantially implemented the proposal. Accordingly, we will not recommend enforcement action to the Commission if Oshkosh omits the proposal from its proxy materials in reliance on rule 14a-8(i)(10). Sincerely, Evan S. Jacobson Special Counsel DIVISION OF CORPORATION FINANCE INFORMAL PROCEDURES REGARDING SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS The Division of Corporation Finance believes that its responsibility with respect to matters arising under Rule 14a-8 [17 CFR 240.14a-8], as with other matters under the proxy rules, is to aid those who must comply with the rule by offering informal advice and suggestions and to determine, initially, whether or not it may be appropriate in a particular matter to recommend enforcement action to the Commission.
