Oshkosh Announces At Least 12 of 13 Oshkosh Nominees Elected to Board

Oshkosh Corporation OSK today announced that, based on the preliminary number of proxies turned over to IVS Associates, Inc., the independent Inspector of Elections at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held today, the Company believes that at least 12 of the 13 Oshkosh director nominees have been elected to the Company's Board of Directors. The Company noted that with respect to the remaining one Board seat up for election, the results are too close to call at this time. The Company issued the following statement: We thank all our shareholders for their participation throughout this process and appreciate the support of those who voted to elect the Company's director nominees. Over the last several weeks, we have had the opportunity to engage in productive and informative discussions with many Oshkosh shareholders, and we value their continued input. Our Board and senior management team remain focused on delivering value to all of our shareholders and continuing the progress we have made towards building a stronger future for Oshkosh. Prior to the closing of the polls at the Annual Meeting the Company and the group led by Carl Icahn turned over proxy cards received by them to IVS for tabulation and certification. Oshkosh will publicly announce a preliminary tabulation of the vote results from IVS within four business days. IVS will make available final results after it has tabulated and certified the votes, which Oshkosh expects to occur within the next few weeks. Oshkosh will publicly announce the final results once they are made available to the Company.
