To Our Fellow Oshkosh Shareholders:

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying GOLD proxy card are being furnished to Shareholders (“Shareholders”) of Oshkosh Corporation, 2307 Oregon Street, P.O. Box 2566, Oshkosh, Wisconsin 54903 (“Oshkosh,” the “Corporation” or the “Company”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Carl C. Icahn and the Participants (as hereinafter defined), to be used at the 2013 Annual Meeting (the “Annual Meeting”) of Shareholders of Oshkosh which is scheduled to be held at [ ], on [ ], at _____ (Central Standard Time), and at any adjournments, postponements or continuations thereof. This Proxy Statement and the GOLD proxy card are first being furnished to Shareholders on or about [ ].

Proposal 1 – Election of Directors

At the Annual Meeting, the Participants will seek to elect to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Oshkosh the following persons (each a “Nominee” and collectively, the “Nominees”):

CARL C. ICAHN

WILLIAM M. LASKY

JOSÉ MARIA ALAPONT

A.B. KRONGARD

DANIEL A. NINIVAGGI

MARC F. GUSTAFSON

JAMES COWAN

JAMES L. NELSON

JACK G. WASSERMAN

WILLIAM A. LEIDESDORF

KEITH COZZA

SUNGHWAN CHO

HUNTER C. GARY

The Participants believe that the Nominees have impressive qualifications and that their experience would be extremely beneficial to Oshkosh and, therefore, the Shareholders. Mr. Icahn has significant business experience as a director in various companies and has created value in companies across multiple industries over the past 40 years. Mr. Lasky has a long impressive career in the manufacturing and vehicles industry, including as the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of JLG Industries, Inc., which was sold to Oshkosh for $3 billion during Mr. Lasky’s tenure. Mr. Alapont is a highly accomplished executive with more than 30 years of global leadership experience at both vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, with business and operations responsibilities in the Europe, Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific, and Americas regions. Mr. Krongard has an impressive background as a leader in both the private and public sectors, having served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Alex. Brown Incorporated, the nation’s oldest investment banking firm, and as Executive Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Mr. Ninivaggi has a strong background in operations and management having served in various executive roles and having served on a number of public and private boards, including Motorola Mobility and CIT Group. Mr. Gustafson has a long and successful career in the transportation industry, particularly the heavy truck industry, having served as an executive officer of various companies in that industry. Mr. Cowan has significant operational experience in OEM manufacturing, steelmaking, construction management, international business development and lean manufacturing techniques. Mr. Nelson has significant experience and leadership roles serving as Chief Executive Officer, Director and Chairman of the audit committee of various companies. Mr. Wasserman has significant experience and leadership roles as a director of various companies. In addition, Mr. Wasserman practiced law for almost 40 years for a firm that concentrated its practice in international trade and related corporate matters, primarily for Fortune 500−type companies operating in a broad range of industries, and he is familiar with financial statements and domestic and trans−border transactions. Mr. Leidesdorf has significant business experience, including responsibility for audits and compliance with various federal and state regulatory authorities, which has enabled him to understand the business and financial issues that companies may face. Mr. Cozza has an extensive operations background in finance and accounting and a substantial knowledge of the capital markets having overseen numerous complex capital raising transactions. Mr. Cho has a strong understanding of business operations and finance, having served as both an executive officer of a large diverse business entity and as a director of various public and private companies. Mr. Gary has extensive experience in dealing with operations matters for a variety of companies which, in addition to his service on other boards, has enabled him to have a strong understanding of operations and oversight issues that companies may face. The Participants believe that these individuals’ knowledge of operations, investments, corporate finance, regulatory oversight and law will significantly improve the expertise and leadership of the Board.

Each of the Nominees has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement, including as a nominee, and to serve as a director of the Corporation if so elected.

Proposal 5 – Repeal of New Bylaws

The Participants also reserve the right to seek to adopt a resolution of the Shareholders at the Annual Meeting (the “Repeal of New Bylaws”) that would repeal any provision of the Oshkosh Bylaws in effect at the time of the Annual Meeting that was not included in the Oshkosh Bylaws as publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to October 25, 2012. The Participants are not aware of any such provision of the Oshkosh Bylaws that has become effective, but it is possible that on or following October 25, 2012 and prior to the adoption of this resolution they could become aware of such a provision.

The following is the text of the proposed resolution:

“RESOLVED, that any provisions of the Bylaws of Oshkosh Corporation as of the effectiveness of this resolution that was not included in the Bylaws of Oshkosh Corporation as publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to October 25, 2012, be and hereby are repealed.”

The Participants are reserving the right to bring Proposal 5 for consideration by the Shareholders at the Annual Meeting because the Board has the ability to make amendments to the Oshkosh Bylaws without obtaining Shareholder approval and some or all of those amendments may not be in the best interests of the Shareholders. The Proposal 5 would allow Shareholders to undo at the Annual Meeting all (but not less than all) amendments to the Oshkosh Bylaws that were not publicly disclosed prior to the deadline under the Bylaws for Shareholders to make proposals at the Annual Meeting.

NELSON, JACK G. WASSERMAN, WILLIAM A. LEIDESDORF, KEITH COZZA, SUNGHWAN CHO AND HUNTER C. GARY, AS DIRECTORS AND (II) FOR THE REPEAL OF NEW BYLAWS.

PROPOSAL 5 – REPEAL OF NEW BYLAWS

Article II, Section 2.11 of Oshkosh’s Bylaws provides that the proposal of other business to be considered by the Shareholders may be made at an Annual Meeting “…by any shareholder of the corporation who (1) is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 2.11, (2) is entitled to vote with respect to such nomination or other business at the meeting under the articles of incorporation and (3) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.11.” On October 26, 2012, High River, a record holder of Common Stock, delivered timely notice in accordance with the foregoing, notifying Oshkosh that High River intends to seek to adopt a resolution of the Shareholders (the “Repeal of New Bylaws”) that would repeal any provision of the Oshkosh Bylaws in effect at the time of the Annual Meeting that was not included in the Oshkosh Bylaws as publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to October 25, 2012.

The Participants are not aware of any such provision of the Oshkosh Bylaws that has become effective, but it is possible that on or following October 25, 2012 and prior to the adoption of this resolution they could become aware of such a provision.

The following is the text of the proposed resolution:

If the Board does not effect any changes to the Oshkosh Bylaws, as publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2012, the Icahn Parties will not make this Proposal 5 at the Annual Meeting and this Proposal 5 will have no effect. However, if the Board has made changes prior to the Annual Meeting that were not disclosed prior to October 25, 2012, then this Proposal 5, if adopted, will restore the version of the Oshkosh Bylaws that became publicly available in filings by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2012.

The Participants are reserving the right to bring Proposal 5 for consideration at the Annual Meeting because the Board has the ability to make amendments to the Oshkosh Bylaws without obtaining Shareholder approval and some or all of those amendments may not be in the best interests of the Shareholders. The Participants are not currently aware of any provisions or amendments of the Oshkosh Bylaws that would be repealed by the adoption of this Proposal 5. However, it is possible that prior to the date of the Annual Meeting, the Board will adopt provisions or amendments to the Oshkosh Bylaws, some or all of which the Shareholders believe are not in their best interests. This Proposal would allow Shareholders to undo at the Annual Meeting all (but not less than all) amendments to the Oshkosh Bylaws that were not publicly disclosed prior to the deadline under the Oshkosh Bylaws for Shareholders to make proposals at the Annual Meeting.

BACKGROUND OF THE SOLICITATION

On June 30, 2011, the Icahn Parties and certain of their affiliates, including Carl C. Icahn (collectively, the “Icahn Reporting Persons”) filed a Schedule 13D with the SEC disclosing an aggregate beneficial ownership of 8,665,260 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”), including Shares underlying call options that were beneficially owned by the Icahn Parties at such time. The Icahn Reporting Persons stated that they had acquired the Shares in the belief that the Shares were undervalued. The Icahn Reporting Persons also disclosed that they intended to seek to have conversations with Oshkosh management to discuss enhancing shareholder value. Shortly thereafter representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons contacted representatives of Oshkosh.

On August 15, 2011, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons met in New York with representatives of Oshkosh, including Charles L. Szews, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and David Sagehorn, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. At that meeting, the parties discussed a range of issues including their respective views on the business and performance of the Company and the strategic direction of the Company. The parties also discussed various issues under Wisconsin law, including the 10% stockholder restrictions. The parties continued to have telephone conversations to discuss these issues from time to time thereafter.

On August 31, 2011, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that they had exercised all of their call options and that they beneficially owned 8,665,260 Shares.

On November 1, 2011, Carl Icahn contacted Mr. Szews to notify him that the Icahn Reporting Persons would be delivering a Notice of Nomination of Directors at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Oshkosh Corporation (the “2012 Nomination Notice”). On November 4, 2011, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons delivered the 2012 Nomination Notice to the Company and amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that they had delivered the 2012 Nomination Notice.

The 2012 Nomination Notice provided that the Icahn Reporting Persons intended to appear at the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or a special meeting of shareholders of the Company called for a similar person, in person or by proxy, to nominate and seek to elect A.B. Krongard, Vincent J. Intrieri, Samuel Merksamer, Jose Maria Alapont, Daniel A. Ninivaggi and Marc F. Gustafson, as members of the Board.

On December 6, 2011, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that Mr. Icahn stated during a telephone interview on CNBC on December 6, 2011, in response to a question regarding the fact that he owns stock of both the Company and Navistar International Corporation, that the Icahn Reporting Persons believed there may be significant synergies between the Company and Navistar and that shareholders of both companies could benefit from these synergies and that the Icahn Reporting Persons would be supportive of a merger. The Icahn Reporting Persons also disclosed that they believed that synergy driven consolidation will be a primary method for defense contractors to drive earnings and cost savings in the years ahead.

On December 16, 2011, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons met in New York with representatives of Oshkosh, including Mr. Szews and Mr. Sagehorn. At that meeting, the parties discussed the possibility of board representation in exchange for withdrawing the director nominations. No proposals were made by any of the Icahn Reporting Persons at that meeting and no agreements were reached.

On January 6, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that Mr. Icahn issued an open letter to the Oshkosh shareholders, and included a copy of the letter with the Schedule 13D amendment (such letter the “January 6 Letter”). In the January 6 Letter, Mr. Icahn indicated that Oshkosh was in need of change and that his nominees to the Oshkosh board have the necessary skills, experience and objectivity to help fix the problems at Oshkosh. Mr. Icahn also stated, among other things, the following:

“After reviewing the details surrounding the MOVE strategy, I firmly believe that their strategy provides no substantive ideas to proactively enhance shareholder value. To put it differently, I believe that their strategy represents the same "wait and see" approach to a recovery which the board has been implementing for years. Shareholders deserve a real plan to deliver value TODAY centered on the following:

-	Immediately explore alternatives for JLG to reallocate capital to debt reduction, returning capital to shareholders and providing opportunities to pursue a more active acquisition strategy surrounding core businesses.

-	Capitalize on a weak economy by consolidating existing niche businesses and entering new synergistic product lines rather than waiting to see how the economy progresses.

-	Aggressively seek small acquisitions and joint venture opportunities in core product areas to develop a comprehensive international growth strategy.

-	Position the company to participate in coming defense industry consolidation as both a buyer and/or a seller.

-	Integrate and restructure existing operations to maintain profitability, and if the current management is not willing or capable of executing such a restructuring, finding a management team that will.”

On January 9, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that the Icahn Reporting Persons delivered a presentation regarding Oshkosh, and included a copy of the presentation with the Schedule 13D amendment. The presentation set forth the Icahn Reporting Persons views as to (i) the need for change at Oshkosh, (ii) the new direction Oshkosh should take to create shareholder value, which included the recommendations made by the Icahn Reporting Persons in the January 6 Letter, and (iii) the qualifications of their slate of director nominees.

On January 11, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that the Icahn Reporting Persons delivered another presentation regarding Oshkosh, and included a copy of the presentation with the Schedule 13D amendment. The presentation responded to a presentation by Oshkosh management that was publicly disclosed on January 9, 2012. In the Icahn Reporting Persons’ presentation, they expressed their belief that management was focusing on the wrong performance metrics in its presentation and that according to the most important performance metrics, the Company’s performance was the lowest amongst its peers. The Icahn Reporting Persons also criticized the apparent lack of strategic direction by the Company and the lengthy time frames set forth by the Company for its restructuring activities and called into question the Company’s ability to generate any meaningful cost savings on a go forward basis. The Icahn Reporting Persons then indicated that their nominees would provide much needed experience and key skills to the current board.

On January 18, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that Institutional Shareholder Services Inc., an influential and leading proxy voting and corporate governance advisory firm, announced its support for three of the Icahn Reporting Persons’ nominees to the Oshkosh board and did not recommend any of the Oshkosh directors.

On January 31, 2012, Oshkosh filed an 8-K with the SEC announcing the results of the 2012 annual meeting. According to the 8-K, none of the nominees of the Icahn Reporting Persons were elected to the Oshkosh board.

On August 9, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended their Schedule 13D to disclose that on August 9, 2012, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons had discussions with Oshkosh management. During those discussions, the Icahn Reporting Persons expressed their belief that the value of the JLG segment of Oshkosh exceeded its total enterprise value and that given the prospects and profitability of Oshkosh’s other segments, the value of JLG would not be recognized by shareholders in the foreseeable future. The Icahn Reporting Persons expressed their belief that JLG performance has improved enough for it to operate as a stand-alone business, and that the Company should immediately pursue a tax-free spinoff of the JLG business to shareholders. The Icahn Reporting Persons also indicated that they may continue to have discussions with representatives of the Company from time to time on these and other matters.

On September 14, 2012, Samuel Merksamer, a representative of the Icahn Reporting Persons, attended an Oshkosh analyst day event in Chicago, Illinois that was open to the public. After the Oshkosh management presentation, Mr. Merksamer met with Mr. Szews and Mr. Donnelly, the Chairman of the Board, to discuss the uncertain future of the defense segment, based on the projections Mr. Szews provided during the analyst presentation. Mr. Szews suggested that although the Company has studied a possible sale or spin-off of the Defense business and the JLG business they had not made any effort to find buyers of either business.

On September 26, 2012, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons met in New York with representatives of Oshkosh, including Mr. Szews, Mr. Sagehorn and Mr. Donnelly. At that meeting, the parties discussed a range of issues including their respective views on the business and performance of the Company and the strategic direction of the Company. Mr. Icahn indicated that he was not satisfied with the performance of the current Board or Mr. Szews or the strategic direction of the Company and that he was considering various possible options regarding the Company but had not yet decided on any particular course of action. Mr. Icahn had a follow-up telephone conversation with Mr. Szews on October 5, 2012 concerning these same issues.

On October 11, 2012, Mr. Icahn issued a press release announcing that he intended to commence a tender offer for any and all Shares of the Company at $32.50 per share and to nominate a slate of directors to the Board at the Annual Meeting.

Later on October 11, 2012, Oshkosh issued a press release stating that the Board would advise shareholders of its position regarding Mr. Icahn’s tender offer within 10 business days from the date of commencement and advised Shareholders to take no action at that time pending a review of the tender offer by the Board.

On October 17, 2012, IEP Vehicles Sub LLC and Icahn Enterprises Holdings LP filed a Schedule TO with the SEC commencing a tender offer for any and all Shares of the Company at $32.50 per Share. As described below, the tender offer was subsequently amended to include the rights issued under the poison pill subsequently adopted by the Board.

On October 22, 2012, Oshkosh issued a press release stating that Board would advise Shareholders of its position regarding the tender offer and expected slate of director nominees and that Oshkosh would submit its response to the tender offer not more than 10 business days from October 17, 2012, the date of commencement of the tender offer. Oshkosh also advised Shareholders to take no action at that time pending a review of the tender offer by the Board.

On October 22, 2012, Mr. Icahn issued an open letter to the Shareholders expressing his lack of confidence in the Oshkosh management team led by Mr. Szews. Mr. Icahn indicated that he believed that the decline in the Oshkosh share price over the five year period since Mr. Szews became president of Oshkosh represents the clearest indication that Oshkosh management has failed, and that the Company will not succeed without a new management team and a drastically different strategy. Mr. Icahn also announced that William Lasky, the former Chairman and CEO of JLG, would be joining his slate of nominees to the Board and assisting Mr. Icahn and his team in developing an independent strategy to maximize the value of JLG.

On October 26, 2012, Oshkosh filed a Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC and issued a press release announcing that the Board had determined that the tender offer was inadequate, undervalues the Company and not in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders and recommending that Shareholders not tender into the tender offer. In addition, on October 26, 2012, Oshkosh announced that the Board adopted a shareholder rights plan, or poison pill.

On October 26, 2012, representatives of the Icahn Reporting Persons delivered a Notice of Nomination of Directors and Proposal of Other Business at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Oshkosh Corporation (the “2013 Nomination Notice”) and amended their Schedule TO to disclose that they had delivered the 2013 Nomination Notice.

The 2013 Nomination Notice provided, among other things, that the Icahn Reporting Persons intended to appear at the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or a special meeting of shareholders of the Company called for a similar person, in person or by proxy, to nominate and seek to elect Carl C. Icahn, William M. Lasky, José Maria Alapont, A.B. Krongard, Daniel A. Ninivaggi, Marc F. Gustafson, James Cowan, James L. Nelson, Jack G. Wasserman, William A. Leidesdorf, Keith Cozza, SungHwan Cho and Hunter C. Gary, as members of the Board.

On October 29, 2012, Oshkosh issued a press release confirming receipt of the 2013 Nomination Notice.

On November 8, 2012, Mr. Icahn issued an open letter to the Shareholders addressing what he believed to be were gross misrepresentations of the tender offer by Oshkosh and urging all Shareholders to tender before the December 3, 2012 deadline to send a strong message to the Board that something more must be done to enhance shareholder value (noting that all Shareholders will have the opportunity to withdraw their shares from the tender offer, if they would like to continue to hold their Oshkosh stock).

On November 13, 2012, the Icahn Reporting Persons amended the tender offer, to, among other things, allow the tender offer to proceed after the Board adopted the poison pill on October 25, 2012, by (i) making the tender offer for any and all Shares including the associated rights issued under the poison pill and (ii) replacing the condition to the tender offer requiring that no “poison pill” be adopted by Oshkosh – a condition that would not be satisfied as a result of the action taken by the Board in adopting a “poison pill” – with a condition requiring the current “poison pill” to be redeemed or otherwise made inapplicable to the tender offer by the current Board or a new Board comprised of the Nominees.

ABOUT THE OFFER

On October 17, 2012, IEP Vehicles Sub LLC (the “Offeror”) and Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P., as co-bidder, commenced an offer to purchase any and all of the issued and outstanding Shares (subsequently amended to include the associated rights) for $32.50 per share in cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated October 17, 2012 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related letter of transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements hereto or thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”).

The Offer is not conditioned upon the Offeror obtaining any financing, any due diligence review of the Company or any minimum numbers of shares being tendered. The Offer is subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to December 3, 2012 (the “Expiration Date”, unless the Offeror shall have extended the period during which the Offer is open, in which event “Expiration Date” shall mean the time and date at which the Offer, as so extended by the Offeror, shall expire), of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including, among other conditions, that (i) the Nominees are elected to the Board in its entirety at the Annual Meeting or otherwise are appointed as the entire Board (the “New Board”) of Oshkosh (the “Board Condition”); (ii) the Board or the New Board has redeemed or otherwise made the Rights issued under the Rights Agreement adopted by the Board on October 25, 2012 (commonly known as a “poison pill”), inapplicable to the Offer and the Offeror (the “Poison Pill Condition”); (iii) the Board or the New Board has approved the purchase of the Shares by the Offeror in the Offer so that the provisions of Section 180.1141 of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (the “WBCL”) would not, at or following consummation of the Offer, prohibit, restrict or apply to any Business Combination, as defined in Section 180.1140 of the WBCL, involving the Company and the Offeror or any affiliate or associate of the Offeror (the “WBCL 1141 Condition”); and (iv) the Board or the New Board has specified as contemplated in Section 180.1150(2) of the WBCL that the provisions of Section 180.1150 of the WBCL do not limit or affect the voting power of any of the Shares held by the Offeror or any of its affiliates or associates at or following the consummation of the Offer (the “WBCL 1150 Condition” and together with the WBCL 1141 Condition, the “WBCL Conditions”). The Offer is also subject to other customary conditions set forth in the applicable Schedule TO filed by the Offeror, including the Offer to Purchase.

The conditions to the Offer must be satisfied on or prior to the Expiration Date. However, if on the Expiration Date, at least 25% of the outstanding Shares are validly tendered in the Offer and not properly withdrawn, then the Offeror intends to extend the Expiration Date and so long as at least 25% of the outstanding Shares remain so tendered in the Offer, the Offeror intends to continue to extend the Offer until the Company holds the Annual Meeting.

If at any time, that number of Shares are validly tendered in the Offer and not properly withdrawn, which, when added to any Shares already owned by the Offeror and its affiliates, represents at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis, then the Offeror will demand that the current Board, in accordance with its fiduciary duty to shareholders, accelerate the upcoming annual meeting of shareholders, or take other action, to allow the Board Condition to be satisfied promptly so that the WBCL Conditions can be satisfied and the Offer can proceed to close quickly, in accordance with its terms. In that regard, the Offeror notes that it is willing to engage in negotiations with Oshkosh immediately in order to obtain its support for the Offer and facilitate closing on an expedited basis.

The election of the Nominees would cause the Board condition to be satisfied but would not, by itself, cause the Poison Pill Condition or the WBCL Conditions, or any other condition included in the Offer to Purchase to be satisfied. However, if elected, the Nominees will constitute the entire board of directors of Oshkosh, replacing the existing Board, and will alone be able to adopt resolutions.

IF THE NOMINEES ARE ELECTED, Mr. Icahn intends to ask the New Board to consider taking one or more of the following actions, if and to the extent that such actions are consistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Board to all Shareholders:

·	Redeem the Poison Pill that was adopted by the Board on October 25, 2012; and

·	Cause the WBCL Conditions to the Offer to be satisfied.

In addition, the Icahn Parties believe that the separation of the JLG business from the defense business is required to fully realize the value of Oshkosh’s assets. After the Offer and the Annual Meeting are completed, if the Nominees are elected to the Board, the Icahn Parties expect that the new Board will investigate every possible strategy to separate these businesses so that it can be accomplished in the most efficient manner possible.

Certain Possible Effects of the Offer and the Proxy Solicitation on the Company’s Indebtedness

If the Offeror and its affiliates become the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), directly or indirectly, of 30% or more of the outstanding Shares, including as a result of the consummation of the Offer, or if the Nominees constitute a majority of the Board and the current Board does not approve their nomination or election, then the lenders under the Credit Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2010, as amended, by and among Oshkosh, the lenders party thereto and various other parties thereto (the “Credit Agreement”), will have the right to cause all unpaid amounts to be immediately due and payable. Because the Offeror and its affiliates currently beneficially own approximately 9.46% of Oshkosh’s issued and outstanding Shares, if the Offeror and/or its affiliates acquire an additional 20.54% or more of the Shares (including pursuant to the Offer) or if the Nominees are elected to the Board and the current Board does not approve their nomination or election, a change of control will occur under the Credit Agreement and the lenders will have the right to cause all unpaid amounts to be immediately due and payable. Oshkosh reported in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2012, that as of September 30, 2012, $455 million was outstanding under the Credit Agreement, there were outstanding letters of credit of $179.8 million under the credit facility and no amounts were borrowed under the revolving credit facility.

If the Offeror and its affiliates become the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the Shares, including as a result of the consummation of the Offer, or if the Nominees constitute a majority of the Board and the current Board does not approve their nomination or election, then Oshkosh would be required to make an offer to each holder to repurchase all outstanding senior notes of Oshkosh at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of notes repurchased. Because the Offeror and its affiliates currently beneficially own 9.46% of Oshkosh’s issued and outstanding Shares, if the Offeror and/or its affiliates acquire an additional 40.54% or more of the Shares (including pursuant to the Offer) or if the Nominees are elected to the Board and the current Board does not approve their nomination or election, a change of control will occur under the indenture governing the senior notes and then Oshkosh would be required to make an offer to each holder to repurchase all outstanding senior notes of Oshkosh at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of notes repurchased. Oshkosh reported in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2012, that as of September 30, 2012, $500 million in aggregate principal amount of Oshkosh senior notes was outstanding.

In addition, if Oshkosh fails to pay the outstanding indebtedness under its Credit Agreement when due, including as a result of an acceleration of the maturity dates as described above or if Oshkosh fails to make the change of control offer as required under Oshkosh’s indenture governing the senior notes, there could occur an event of default under the Credit Agreement and/or the indentures governing Oshkosh’s outstanding senior notes which will enable the lenders under the Credit Agreement and/or the holders of the senior notes or the trustee to declare any such debt immediately due and payable. In the aggregate, Oshkosh reported in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2012, that as of September 30, 2012, it had approximately $955 million of outstanding indebtedness.

The Offeror expects that if the Nominees are elected to the Board, the new Board would seek to refinance any such indebtedness that would be required to be so repaid.

The foregoing description of the Company’s existing indebtedness is qualified in its entirety by reference to the definitive documents governing that indebtedness, copies of which have been filed by the Company with the SEC.

For a complete description of the terms of the Offer, including conditions of the Offer and certain federal income tax consequences of the Offer, Shareholders are referred to the Schedule TO filed by the Offeror with the SEC, including the Offer to Purchase and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal. Shareholders are advised to read the Schedule TO, including the Offer to Purchase, the letter of Transmittal and other documents filed with the SEC, carefully in their entirety because they contain important information.

OTHER PROPOSALS

The Participants and their affiliates know of no other business to be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters should properly come before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the persons named on the enclosed GOLD proxy card will vote that proxy on such other matters in accordance with their judgment.

VOTING PROCEDURES

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Bylaws and applicable law, holders of shares of Common Stock, at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to one vote on each matter presented at the Annual Meeting.

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Bylaws and applicable law, in a contested election of directors, plurality voting applies in the election of directors. According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Chairman of the Oshkosh Board has determined that the election at the Annual Meeting is a contested election because nomination of the Nominees by the Icahn Parties would result in more persons nominated to serve as a director than Board seats available. Accordingly, pursuant to Oshkosh’s Bylaws, plurality voting will apply at the Annual Meeting. Plurality voting means that the individuals who receive the largest number of votes cast are elected as directors, up to the maximum number of directors to be chosen at the Annual Meeting. Consequently, any shares of Common Stock not voted (whether by abstention, broker nonvote or otherwise) have no impact in the election of directors.

A quorum must be present, in person or by proxy, in order for the Company to hold the Annual Meeting. A quorum is the presence in person or by proxy of a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The shares of Common Stock represented by a proxy marked “withhold” or “abstain” and broker non-votes (as described below) will be considered present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.

BROKER NON-VOTES

If you hold your shares of Common Stock through a bank, broker or other nominee and do not provide voting instructions to the record holder of the shares of Common Stock, your shares of Common Stock will not be voted on any proposal on which your broker or nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote. In this case, a “broker non-vote” occurs. Shares of Common Stock constituting broker non-votes are not counted or deemed to be present or represented for the purpose of determining whether Shareholders have approved a matter, but they are counted as present for the purpose of determining a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

The election of directors at the Annual Meeting is a “non-routine matter” and brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote your shares of Common Stock on “non-routine matters.” Therefore, unless you provide specific voting instructions to your broker, your broker will not have discretionary authority to vote your shares of Common Stock for the election of directors at the Annual Meeting and your shares of Common Stock will not be voted for the election of directors. If your shares of Common Stock are held in street name, your broker or nominee has enclosed a GOLD voting instruction card with this Proxy Statement. We strongly encourage you to vote your shares of Common Stock by following the instructions provided on the GOLD voting instruction card.

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Oshkosh Bylaws and applicable law, in order for the Shareholders to approve Proposal 2 – RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP, AN INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM, AS OSHKOSH’S INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 – the votes cast "FOR" Proposal 2 must exceed the votes cast "AGAINST" Proposal 2. Abstentions and broker non−votes do not constitute a vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" Proposal 2 and will be disregarded in the calculation of "votes cast." Brokers are not entitled to vote on Proposal 2 in the absence of voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Oshkosh Bylaws and applicable law, the Shareholder vote on Proposal 3 – TO CONSIDER AN ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OSHKOSH’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS – is advisory and will not be binding on the Oshkosh Board. However, in order to be approved by the Shareholders on an advisory basis, the votes cast "FOR" Proposal 3 must exceed the votes cast "AGAINST" Proposal 3. Abstentions and broker non−votes do not constitute a vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" Proposal 3 and will be disregarded in the calculation of "votes cast." Brokers are not entitled to vote on Proposal 3 in the absence of voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Oshkosh Bylaws and applicable law, in order for the Shareholders to approve Proposal 4 – SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL – STOCK RECEIVED THROUGH COMPENSATION– the votes cast "FOR" Proposal 4 must exceed the votes cast "AGAINST" Proposal 4. Abstentions and broker non−votes do not constitute a vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" Proposal 4 and will be disregarded in the calculation of "votes cast." Brokers are not entitled to vote on Proposal 4 in the absence of voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Proposal 4 must be properly presented at the Annual Meeting to be voted upon.

According to Oshkosh’s Proxy Statement, the Oshkosh Bylaws and applicable law, in order for the Shareholders to approve Proposal 5 – REPEAL OF NEW BYLAWS – the votes cast "FOR" Proposal 5 must not be less than a majority of the shares present or represented and entitled to vote on Proposal 5 in order for Proposal 5 to pass. Abstentions and broker non−votes do not constitute a vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" Proposal 5.

ANNEX B

[FORM OF NOMINEE AGREEMENT]

ICAHN CAPITAL LP

October ___, 2012

To the undersigned potential nominee:

This will confirm our understanding as follows:

You agree that you are willing, should we so elect, to become a member of a slate of nominees (the “Slate”) to stand for election as directors of Oshkosh Corporation (“Oshkosh”) in connection with a proxy contest with management of Oshkosh in respect of the election of directors of Oshkosh at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Oshkosh (the “Annual Meeting”), expected to be held on or about February 2013, or a special meeting of stockholders of Oshkosh called for a similar purpose (the “Proxy Contest”).

Icahn Capital LP (“Icahn”) agrees to pay the costs of the Proxy Contest.

In addition, upon our filing of a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC, which indicates that Icahn, or an affiliate thereof, intends to nominate you for election at the Annual Meeting, you will be entitled to be paid $25,000 by Icahn unless you are elected to serve as a director of Oshkosh at the Annual Meeting or a special meeting of stockholders of Oshkosh called for a similar purpose or in connection with a settlement of the Proxy Contest by Icahn and Oshkosh, in which case you will not receive any payment from Icahn in connection with the Proxy Contest. Payment to you pursuant to this paragraph, if any, will be made by Icahn, subject to the terms hereof, upon the earliest of (i) the certification of the results of the election in respect of the Proxy Contest, (ii) the settlement of the Proxy Contest by Icahn and Oshkosh, or (iii) the withdrawal of the Proxy Contest by Icahn.

You understand that it may be difficult, if not impossible, to replace nominees who, such as yourself, have agreed to serve on the Slate and later change their minds and determine not to seek election. Accordingly, the Slate is relying upon your agreement to seek election. In that connection, you are being supplied with a questionnaire in which you will provide Icahn with information necessary for Icahn to make appropriate disclosure both to Oshkosh and for use in creating the proxy material to be sent to shareholders of Oshkosh and to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You have agreed that (i) you will immediately complete and sign the questionnaire and return it to Mark DiPaolo, Assistant General Counsel, Icahn Enterprises LP, 767 Fifth Avenue, Suite 4700, New York, NY 10153, Tel: (212) 702-4361, Fax: (212) 688-1158, Email: mdipaolo@sfire.com and (ii) your responses to the questions contained therein will be true and correct in all respects. In addition, you have agreed that, concurrently with your execution of this letter, you will execute the attached instrument directed to Oshkosh informing Oshkosh that you consent to being nominated by Icahn, or an affiliate thereof, for election as a director of Oshkosh and, if elected, consent to serving as a director of Oshkosh. Upon being notified that we have chosen you, we may forward that instrument and your completed questionnaire (or summaries thereof) to Oshkosh.

Icahn hereby agrees that, so long as you actually serve on the Slate, Icahn will defend, indemnify and hold you harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses and disbursements (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses and disbursements) incurred by you in the event that (i) you become a party, or are threatened to be made a party, to any civil, criminal, administrative or arbitrative action, suit or proceeding, and any appeal thereof relating solely to your role as a nominee for director of Oshkosh on the Slate (a “Proceeding”) or (ii) you are called to testify or give a deposition in any Proceeding (whether or not you are a party or are threatened to be made a party to such Proceeding), including, in each case, the advancement to you of all reasonable attorneys’ costs and expenses incurred by you in connection with any Proceeding. Your right of indemnification hereunder shall continue (i) in the event that Icahn determines to withdraw the Slate or remove you from the Slate and (ii) after the election has taken place but only for events which occur prior to such election and subsequent to the date hereof. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Icahn is not defending, indemnifying or holding you harmless for any action taken by you or on your behalf which occurs prior to the date hereof or subsequent to the Annual Meeting or such earlier time as you are no longer a nominee of the Slate for election to Oshkosh’ Board of Directors or for any actions taken by you as a director of Oshkosh, if you are elected. Nothing herein shall be construed to provide you a defense, indemnity or the right to be held harmless: (i) in the event you are found to have engaged in a violation of any provision of state or federal law in connection with the Proxy Contest unless you demonstrate that your action was taken in good faith and in a manner you reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of electing the Slate; or (ii) if you acted in a manner which constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event that you shall make any claim for defense, indemnification or being held harmless hereunder, you shall promptly notify Icahn in the event of any third-party claims actually made against you or known by you to be threatened. In addition, with respect to any such claim, Icahn shall be entitled to control your defense with counsel chosen by Icahn. Icahn shall not be responsible for any settlement of any claim against you covered by this indemnity without its prior written consent. However, Icahn may not enter into any settlement of any such claim without your consent unless such settlement includes a release of you from any and all liability in respect of such claim.

Each of us recognizes that should you be elected to the Board of Directors of Oshkosh all of your activities and decisions as a director will be governed by applicable law and subject to your fiduciary duty to the stockholders of Oshkosh and, as a result, that there is, and can be, no agreement between you and Icahn which governs the decisions which you will make as a director of Oshkosh.

Should the foregoing agree with your understanding, please so indicate in the space provided below, whereupon this letter will become a binding agreement between us.

Very truly yours,

ICAHN CAPITAL LP
