BOARD AND COMMITTEE MEETINGS

Corporate Governance

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board is currently composed of nine directors. The number of directors is fixed by our Board, subject to the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide for a classified Board consisting of three classes of directors, each serving staggered three-year terms as follows:

(1) Our Class I directors are Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2021.

(2) Our Class II directors are Messrs. Fish, Rotroff and Rushing, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2022.

(3) Our Class III directors are Messrs. Bamatter, Cusumano and Swift, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2023.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, upon the expiration of the term of a class of directors, the successor to each such director in the class will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following his or her election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of our directors.

Controlled Company Exemption

The AIP Funds control more than a majority of the voting power of our common stock eligible to vote in the election of directors. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE and have elected not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements that the board be composed of a majority of independent directors and that the compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee are composed entirely of independent directors.

The Board has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola meet the definition of “independent director” under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE. As such, our audit committee is composed of independent directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board has three standing committees: the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee. The charter of each committee is available on our website at www.revgroup.com.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee is composed of Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola, with Mr. Canan serving as chairman of the committee. Our Board has determined that each member of the audit committee meets the independence requirements under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE and all members of the audit committee meet the financial literacy requirements under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE. Our Board has determined that all members qualify as “audit committee financial experts” as defined under SEC rules.

Our compensation committee is composed of Messrs. Bamatter, Cusumano and Viola, with Mr. Cusumano serving as chairman of the committee.

The compensation committee’s responsibilities include, among other things:

Our nominating and corporate governance committee is composed of Messrs. Bamatter, Fish and Rotroff, with Mr. Bamatter serving as chairman of the committee. The nominating and corporate governance committee’s responsibilities include:

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board or compensation committee.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board is currently responsible for overseeing our risk management process. The Board focuses on our general risk management strategy and the most significant risks facing us and ensures that appropriate risk mitigation strategies are implemented by management. The Board is also apprised of particular risk management matters in connection with its general oversight and approval of corporate matters and significant transactions.

In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures and our compensation committee has taken to assess and monitor whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage unnecessary risk-taking. In addition, our Audit Committee oversees any related person transactions.

We currently separate the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. The Board believes that such structure is in the best interest of the Company at this time, as it allows for a more effective monitoring and objective evaluation of the performance of management. The Chairman of the Board also acts as the presiding director during executive sessions.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct

We have adopted corporate governance guidelines and a code of conduct that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. Our corporate governance guidelines and code of conduct are available on our website. We intend to disclose any amendments to such documents, or any waivers of their requirements, on our website.

Hedging and Pledging Policy

Without the consent of our Board, we prohibit all our directors, our executive officers and our employees from engaging in short sales of our securities; transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts and calls, and other derivative securities with respect to our securities; and hedging or monetization transactions, including through the use of financial instruments such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, designed to decrease the risks of ownership of our securities. However, holding and exercising employee stock options, RSUs, PSUs or other equity-based awards granted under our equity compensation plans is not prohibited.

Our executive officers and directors are also prohibited from pledging any of our securities that they hold directly or have received as equity compensation.

Meetings of the Board, Board and Committee Member Attendance and Annual Meeting Attendance

Our Board met five times during fiscal year 2019. The audit committee met four times, the compensation committee met five times and the nominating and corporate governance committee met four times. During fiscal year 2019 each Board member attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and of the committees of the Board on which he served. We encourage all of our directors and nominees for director to attend our annual meeting of stockholders; however, attendance is not mandatory.

Stockholder Communications with the Board

Should stockholders or other interested parties wish to communicate with the Board, non-management directors as a group or any specified individual directors, including with respect to recommendations for director nominees, such correspondence should be sent to the attention of Stephen W. Boettinger, Secretary of the Board at 111 E. Kilbourn Avenue, Suite 2600, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202. The Secretary of the Board will forward correspondence relating to a director’s duties or responsibilities to the specified recipient. Correspondence that is unrelated to a director’s duties and responsibilities may be discarded or otherwise addressed by the Secretary.

Director Nomination Considerations

In making recommendations to the Company’s Board of nominees to serve as Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will examine each Director nominee on a case-by-case basis regardless of who recommended the nominee and take into account all factors it considers appropriate, which may include strength of character, mature judgment, career specialization, relevant technical skills or financial acumen, and industry knowledge.

In evaluating Director nominees, the Board with assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, shall consider diversity of viewpoint, backgrounds, technical skills, industry knowledge and experience and local or community ties. The Board believes the following minimum qualifications must be met by a Director nominee to be recommended by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee:

☐	Each Director must display, and have a reputation for, high personal and professional ethics, integrity and values.
☐	Each Director must have demonstrated sound business judgment.
☐	Each Director must be accomplished in his or her respective field as an active or former executive officer of a public or private organization, with broad experience at the administrative and/or policy making level in business, government, education, technology or public interest.
☐	Each Director must have relevant expertise and experience, and be able to offer advice and guidance based on that expertise and experience.
☐	Each Director must be independent of any particular constituency, be able to represent all shareholders of the Company and be committed to enhancing long-term shareholder value.
☐	Each Director must have sufficient time available to devote to activities of the Board of Directors and to developing a complete understanding of the Company’s business and markets.

The Board also believes Directors should be selected so the Board is balanced with each Director contributing talents, skills, and experiences that the Board needs as a team, supplementing existing resources and providing talent for future needs so that the Board is a diverse body. When considering such talents, skills and experiences, the Board values diversity, including age, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, physical ability, ethnicity, and perspective.

Lead Independent Director

A Lead Independent Director will be elected by a majority vote of the independent directors when the Chair is not independent. The Lead Independent Director will serve for a one year term. The term of the Lead Independent Director will automatically expire upon the appointment by the Board of a Chair who is an independent director, or anytime upon a determination by the Board that the sitting Chair is independent. The primary roles of the Lead Independent Director are to assist the Chair in managing the governance of the Board and to serve as a liaison between the Chair and other directors. The Lead Independent Director will assume the following responsibilities (in addition to any other responsibilities assigned by the Board): (i) preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Chair is not present, including all executive sessions of the independent directors; (ii) have the authority to call meetings of the independent directors; (iii) serve as a contact for interested parties who wish to communicate with independent directors; (iv) provide the Chair with feedback and counsel concerning the Chair’s interaction with the Board and management; (v) work with the Chair to develop Board meeting agendas and meeting schedules; and (vi) periodically meet individually with independent directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer to discuss Board and Committee performance, effectiveness and composition; and (vii) provide leadership to the Board if circumstances arise in which the role of the Chair may be, or may be perceived to be, in conflict. If the Company does not have a Lead Independent Director, but instead has a Chair who is an independent director, the responsibilities of the Lead Independent Director set forth above will be performed by the independent Chair. At the December 2019 Board of Directors meeting, the independent directors elected Jean Marie Canan as the Lead Independent Director.

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

The material in this report is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of REV under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The primary purpose of the audit committee is to oversee our financial reporting processes on behalf of our Board. The audit committee’s functions are more fully described in its charter, which is available on our website at www.revgroup.com. Management has the primary responsibility for our financial statements and reporting processes, including our systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the audit committee reviewed and discussed with management REV’s audited financial statements as of and for fiscal year 2019.

The audit committee has discussed with RSM, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and the SEC. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with RSM their independence, and has received from RSM the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding RSM’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. Finally, the audit committee discussed with RSM, with and without management present, the scope and results of RSM’s audit of REV’s audited financial statements as of and for fiscal year 2019.

Based on these reviews and discussions, the audit committee has recommended to our Board that such audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2019 for filing with the SEC. The audit committee also has engaged RSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2020 and is seeking ratification of such selection by the stockholders.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth information relating to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 3, 2020, by:

☐	each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock;
☐	each of our directors and named executive officers; and
☐	all directors and named executive officers as a group.

A person is a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares voting or investment power over the security or if that person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power over the security within 60 days. Unless otherwise noted, these persons, to our knowledge, have sole voting and investment power over the shares listed. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 3, 2020. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 63,258,385 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 3, 2020. Unless otherwise indicated below, the address for each beneficial owner listed is c/o REV Group, Inc., 111 E. Kilbourn Avenue, Suite 2600, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Such officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports filed electronically with the SEC during the Company’s most recent fiscal year, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with during fiscal year 2019 and fiscal year 2018, except for one Form 4 that was filed late by each of Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola, in each case to report one transaction in fiscal year 2018.

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, during our last fiscal year, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

☐	the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and
☐	any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our common stock, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Other than as described below, there have not been, nor are there any currently proposed, transactions or series of similar transactions meeting this criteria to which we have been or will be a party other than compensation arrangements, which are described where required under “Executive Compensation” and “Director Compensation.”

Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement

We are party to an amended and restated shareholders agreement with the AIP Funds, entities affiliated with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “JPM Holders”) and certain of our existing stockholders (the “Shareholders Agreement”) that we entered into in connection with our IPO. Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, the AIP Funds have the following rights so long as the AIP Funds beneficially own in the aggregate at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock:

☐	to nominate the greater of five members of the Board or a majority of directors;
☐	to designate the Chairman of our Board and one member to each of the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee;
☐	to approve the commencement of any proceeding for the voluntary dissolution, winding up or bankruptcy of the Company or any material subsidiary;
☐	to approve any non-pro rata reduction to the share capital of the Company or any material subsidiary, except as required by law;
☐	to approve amendments to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that would change the name of the Company, its jurisdiction of incorporation, the location of its principal executive offices, the purpose or purposes for which the Company is incorporated or the approval requirements as provided in the Shareholders Agreement;
☐	to approve special dividends greater than $10 million;
☐	to approve any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company or the spin-off of a business of the Company with assets in excess of 15% of the consolidated assets or revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries;
☐	the sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or more than 15% of the consolidated assets or revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries; and
☐	any designation to the Board contrary to the Shareholders Agreement or the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws.

In addition, for so long as the AIP Funds beneficially own in the aggregate at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, the AIP Funds are entitled to certain information rights, including the right to consult with and advise senior management, to receive quarterly and annual financial statements and to review our books and records. We are also required to cooperate with the AIP Funds in connection with certain pledges of our shares or grants of security interests in respect thereof, including in connection with margin loans.

The Shareholders Agreement also provides for the reimbursement of certain expenses that the AIP Funds incur in connection with providing management services to us. During fiscal year 2019, reimbursements of expenses to the AIP Funds for management services totaled $1.4 million.

The Shareholders Agreement will automatically terminate when the AIP Funds cease to beneficially own in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock.

Registration Rights Agreement

We are party to a registration rights agreement with the AIP Funds, the JPM Funds and certain other existing stockholders (each, a “Stockholder” and together, the “Stockholders”), each of which is entitled to certain demand and piggyback registration rights. As of January 13, 2020, the Stockholders held an aggregate of approximately 33.8 million shares of our common stock, or approximately 53.9% of the voting power of our common stock outstanding. The registration rights described below will expire on the date on which the securities subject to the registration rights agreement may be sold by the holder in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

Demand Registration Rights. Subject to certain requirements and other limitations in the registration rights agreement, the AIP Funds and any other Stockholder or group of Stockholders holding at least 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock may request that we register all or a portion of their shares. Any such request must cover a quantity of shares with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least $50.0 million. To the extent we are a well-known seasoned issuer, the Stockholders making a demand registration may also request that we file an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that covers the registrable securities requested to be registered. Depending on certain conditions, we may defer a demand registration for up to 90 days in any twelve-month period.

Piggyback Registration Rights. In the event that we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act, either for our account or for the account of our other security holders, the Stockholders will be entitled to certain piggyback registration rights allowing each to include its shares in the registration, subject to certain marketing and other limitations. As a result, whenever we propose to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, the holders of these shares are entitled to notice of the registration.

Transfer Restrictions. The registration rights agreement will contain certain transfer restrictions applicable to the parties thereto. Without the consent of the AIP Funds, and subject to certain exceptions, no party to the registration rights agreement will be permitted to transfer their shares of our common stock except in a registered offering being conducted pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the registration rights agreement.

Expenses; Indemnification. The registration rights agreement provides that we must pay all registration expenses (other than the underwriting discounts and commissions) in connection with effecting any demand registration or shelf registration. The registration rights agreement contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions.

Indemnification Agreements

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. In addition, we have entered into customary indemnification agreements with certain of our directors and executive officers who were employed at the time of the Company’s initial public offering, and with Mr. Thomas Phillips who served as our Chief Operating Officer until October 31, 2017 and who now serves as an independent contractor. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals and, in certain cases, affiliates of such individuals, to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us or at our direction, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, there is a consolidated federal putative securities class action and a consolidated state putative securities class action pending presently pending against the Company and certain of its officers and directors. Two purported derivative actions, which have since been consolidated, were also filed in federal court in Delaware in 2019 against the Company’s directors (with the Company as a nominal defendant), premised on allegations

similar to those asserted in the consolidated federal securities litigation. Each of the Company’s officers named as defendants in the lawsuits (Timothy Sullivan, Dean Nolden and former Chief Operating Officer Tom Phillips) and each of the Company’s directors are receiving defense and indemnification from the Company consistent with the foregoing indemnity agreements, and with indemnity obligations described in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws.

Related Person Transactions Policy

We have a formal, written policy with respect to the review, approval, ratification and disclosure of related person transactions. The policy requires that a “related person” (as defined in Item 404 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K) or the business leader responsible for entering into the “related person transaction” (as defined in Item 404 of the SEC’s regulation S-K) on our behalf, must, prior to entering into the related person transaction, notify our General Counsel and the chairman of our audit committee of the facts and circumstances of the proposed transaction. Under the policy, our audit committee, and, in limited circumstances, the chairman of our audit committee, is responsible for reviewing the facts and circumstances and determining whether to approve the related person transaction. In particular, our policy requires our audit committee to consider, among other factors it deems appropriate:

☐	the related person’s relationship to us and interest in the transaction;
☐	the material facts of the proposed transaction, including the proposed aggregate value of the transaction;
☐	the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director or an immediate family member of the director;
☐	the benefits to us of the proposed transaction;
☐	if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services; and
☐	an assessment of whether the proposed transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.

The audit committee (or audit committee chairman) may only approve those transactions that it determines, in good faith, are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders.

Other

Since December 1, 2017, we have employed Vice President REV Parts Andrew Hansen, who is the son-in-law of Mr. Sullivan, our former Chief Executive Officer and a former Director on our Board.

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation of our named executive officers is determined under our compensation program for senior executives. This program is overseen by the Board and its compensation committee (referred to as the “Compensation Committee”). The Board determines the compensation of our executive officers in consultation with the recommendations of the Compensation Committee.

This compensation discussion and analysis focuses on our named executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table and the other compensation tables below (referred to as our “named executive officers”). Our named executive officers are executive officers who served in the roles of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer during fiscal year 2019, as well as our three next most highly compensated executive officers during fiscal year 2019, and one additional individual, Ms. Stephens, who served as an executive officer during part of fiscal year 2019. Our named executive officers for fiscal year 2019 were:

☐	Timothy W. Sullivan, former Chief Executive Officer;
☐	Dean J. Nolden, Chief Financial Officer;

☐	Ian Walsh, Chief Operating Officer;
☐	Stephen W. Boettinger, General Counsel;
☐	Christopher M. Daniels, Chief Human Resources Officer; and
☐	Barbara Stephens, former Chief Human Resources Officer.

Information regarding the compensation of Ms. Stephens can be found at the end of “Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

In connection with the removal of Mr. Sullivan as our Chief executive Officer and the hiring of Mr. Rushing to serve as Chief Executive Officer, we entered into a Separation Agreement with Mr. Sullivan (the “Separation Agreement”) and an offer letter with Mr. Rushing (the “Offer Letter”).

Under the Separation Agreement, Mr. Sullivan will receive separation benefits consisting of (i) thirty-six months of salary continuation, (ii) continued eligibility for vesting of all unvested restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Awards between Mr. Sullivan and the Company dated as of December 19, 2017 and January 8, 2019 (the “RSUs”), and (iii) immediate vesting of the RSUs upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Rev Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)). The Separation Agreement also provides that Mr. Sullivan will enter into a post-termination consulting engagement with the Company through January 8, 2023 (the “End Date”), pursuant to which Mr. Sullivan will provide such services as may reasonably be requested by the Board from time to time. The Company may terminate this engagement at any time for Cause (as defined in the Plan). If Mr. Sullivan’s consulting engagement is terminated for Cause, his continued entitlement to any severance benefits will end.

On March 5, 2020, the Company entered into the Offer Letter setting forth certain terms of his employment with the Company commencing March 23, 2020. The Offer Letter and Mr. Rushing’s employment thereunder may be terminated with or without cause or notice, by the Company or by Mr. Rushing, subject to the rights and obligations contained therein.

Under the terms of the Offer Letter, Mr. Rushing will receive an initial annual base salary of $880,000. In addition, Mr. Rushing will be eligible to participate in the REV Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) for fiscal year 2020 at a target level of 120% of base salary, with a maximum payout of 240% of base salary and a minimum payout of $880,000. Mr. Rushing will also be eligible to participate in the Rev Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and on March 23, 2020 the Company’s board of directors granted an initial restricted stock award to Mr. Rushing under the Plan equivalent to 300% of his base salary, vesting in equal installments on December 31st of each of 2020, 2021, and 2022, and granted a one-time performance stock unit award under the Plan in the amount of $3,000,000 with a performance period ending January 31, 2023 and vesting in four equal installments upon the achievement of specified consolidated adjusted EBITDA targets, subject to 50% of the award vesting on January 31, 2023 in the event that such portion of the award has not otherwise vested. The share amounts for each of these awards was determined based on the Company’s average share price for the prior 30 days at the time of grant. The Offer Letter also provides that the Company will grant Mr. Rushing an additional one-time restricted stock award under the Plan equal to $1,000,000 on March 23, 2021, with a three-year vesting schedule. Additional annual awards under the Plan are expected to be reviewed by the board of directors in December of each year.

Mr. Rushing will be eligible to participate in all employee benefits plans offered to the Company’s employees generally. During the 60-day period before Mr. Rushing becomes eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefits plans, the Company will reimburse Mr. Rushing for the cost of his continued participation in the medical benefits plans of his former employer pursuant to the federal law known as COBRA.

Upon a termination of employment without cause, Mr. Rushing is entitled under the Offer Letter to severance benefits consisting of 12 months of base salary. If Mr. Rushing is terminated without cause on or prior to December 31, 2020, he will be entitled to an additional severance payment in the amount of $3,000,000 and if he is terminated without cause in the one-year period ending December 31, 2021, he will be entitled to an additional severance payment in the amount of $1,500,000. In addition, if Mr. Rushing is terminated upon a change in control of the Company, he is entitled under the Offer Letter to an amount equal to three times his base salary plus his target MIP bonus for the fiscal year in which his employment terminated or in which the change in control occurred, whichever is greater.

Principal Objectives of Our Compensation Program for Named Executive Officers

Our executive team is critical to our success and to building value for our stockholders. The principal objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

☐	attract, retain and motivate high-caliber executive officers by providing a total compensation program that takes into consideration competitive market requirements and strategic business needs;
☐	clearly align the financial interests of executive officers with those of our stockholders;
☐	encourage behavior consistent with our values and reinforce ethical business practices; and
☐	appropriately reward executive officers for creating long-term stockholder value.

Compensation Setting Process

Our Chief Executive Officer has discretion to recommend both the contractual and discretionary compensation of the named executive officers, other than himself, in consultation with our Board. Our Board has historically had overall responsibility for overseeing our executive compensation policies and compensation plans and programs. In consultation with our Chief Executive Officer, our Board reviews our achievements as a company and those of our executive officers when determining the specific type and level of compensation of our named executive officers.

We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable and appropriate to attract and retain talent to meet our business needs. In addition to certain information provided by Willis Towers Watson, PLC (“Willis Towers Watson”), with respect to executive officer and director compensation matters as discussed below, we have informally considered the competitive market for corresponding positions within comparable geographic areas and companies of similar size, industry and stage of development.

Compensation was determined with the application of subjective discretion rather than by applying a specific formula or matrix to set total compensation in relation to compensation paid by other companies. Our historical approach has been to consider competitive compensation practices and other factors, such as how much compensation was necessary to recruit and retain an executive officer, as well as individual performance.

For the named executive officers (other than our Chief Executive Officer), our Chief Executive Officer has considered such named executive officer’s responsibilities and prior experience. Our Chief Executive Officer then consults with the Board on his recommendations to the Board regarding base salary increases, formula based and discretionary bonus and incentive amounts and equity award amounts, and advises the Board regarding the compensation program’s ability to attract, retain and motivate executive talent. These recommendations reflect compensation levels that our Chief Executive Officer believes are commensurate with such named executive officer’s individual qualifications, experience, responsibility level, functional role, knowledge, skills and individual performance, as well as our Company’s performance and competitive offerings.

In determining our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, the Board takes into consideration our performance, our Chief Executive Officer’s contribution to that performance and the desire to retain and motivate the Chief Executive Officer.

The Compensation Committee administers our executive compensation program in accordance with its charter, including making recommendations to our Board for approval of various matters.

Role of Compensation Consultant

We retained Willis Towers Watson in June 2016 to provide guidance and advice going forward on compensation-related matters, including changes to our executive and director compensation structure following completion of the IPO. We continue to use a proprietary job grading system, as well as broad-based salary survey data, from Willis Towers Watson. The aggregate cost to the Company of these additional products and services did not exceed $120,000 during fiscal year 2019. In connection with our engagement of Willis Towers Watson, our Board conducted an assessment of potential conflicts of interest of Willis Towers Watson, and no conflicts of interest relating to its services were identified.

Shareholder Engagement and Say-on-Pay Vote

We are committed to open and ongoing communication with our shareholders, including with respect to executive compensation and corporate governance matters.

At our 2019 Annual Meeting, our shareholders approved by more than 97% of the votes cast, on an advisory basis, the 2018 compensation of our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee has carefully considered the results of the advisory vote and believe that those results validate our executive compensation program, performance assessment and decision-making process.

Elements of Compensation

The following is a discussion of the primary elements of the compensation for each of our named executive officers.

Annual Base Salary

We believe that providing each of our named executive officers a competitive annual base salary is an important component of compensation. A competitive annual base salary provides a degree of financial stability to our named executive officers that enhances their performance on behalf of our stockholders and is critical to recruiting and retaining our named executive officers. We do not have formal written policies or guidelines for setting or adjusting the annual base salary of our named executive officers but instead make a subjective determination based on certain factors that we believe are relevant. Specifically, we will consider the executive’s experience, responsibilities and unique leadership skills as well as any changes in the competitive market environment. For fiscal year 2019, survey and proxy data were considered in recommendations made by the Chief Executive Officer to the Board for changes in the base salaries of the executive officers, if any. Any changes were consistent with market data, the experience and performance of the executive officers.

Annual Cash Incentive Program

An annual cash incentive program is recognized as a competitive element of executive compensation and is critical to recruiting and retaining our named executive officers. Further, it incentivizes our named executive officers to achieve annual results in line with the expectations of our shareholders. For fiscal year 2019, our named executive officers participated in the REV Group Management Incentive Plan, which we refer to as the MIP. The MIP metrics, targets and weighting used to calculate payments for the named executive officers were based on full Company performance, and were the same as those used for calculating MIP payment for all corporate employees. The MIP calculations for employees at a division or business unit level used similar types of metrics as the corporate MIP, but the metrics and targets were based at least partially on division and/or business unit performance, and weighting between metrics differed based on an employee’s division or business unit position. Under the MIP, incentive payments for named executive officers are based on each named executive officer’s incentive target and the achievement of the performance metrics set forth below. The Board, in its discretion, may reduce the size of any payout under the MIP. For fiscal year 2019, the incentive targets for our named executive officers, as a percentage of base salary, were as follows:

☐	Timothy W. Sullivan—120%
☐	Dean J. Nolden—75%
☐	Ian Walsh—80%
☐	Stephen W. Boettinger—60%
☐	Christopher M. Daniels—60%
☐	Barbara Stephens—55%

Whether named executive officer participants of the 2019 MIP would be eligible to receive incentive payments was determined based on the Company’s pre-acquisition annual Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 60%), annual average net working capital (“Average NWC”) (weighted 20%), and monthly and quarterly results for Adjusted EBITDA and Average NWC (weighted 20%), each as compared to their respective targets. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric that represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for other one time and noncash expense items. The annual corporate targets for fiscal year 2019 were established at $185 million of Adjusted EBITDA and Average NWC of $482.1 million. A threshold performance level of 90% of these targets must be met before any annual

incentive payments are made to our named executive officers. At 90% achievement of annual targets, MIP participants receive 50% of the annual portion of their individual incentive target. At 100% achievement of annual targets, MIP participants receive 100% of the annual portion of their individual incentive targets. Participants can achieve a maximum incentive payment of 200% of individual incentive target if annual pre-acquisition Adjusted EBITDA and Average NWC performance are both 20% better than their respective annual targets. Similar calculations are made for quarterly and monthly time periods, but participants can only achieve an incentive payout of 100% of individual incentive target if the applicable monthly or quarterly pre-acquisition Adjusted EBITDA and Average NWC performance are at least 100% of the respective monthly or quarterly targets. REV Group provided payouts to Messrs. Nolden, Walsh, Boettinger and Daniels under the MIP. A MIP payout factor of 17.7% was achieved, 16.7% attributable to Average NWC achievement and 1.0% attributable to monthly achievement. Prior to being awarded any MIP amount, Mr. Sullivan voluntarily waived his MIP payout.

As Ms. Stephens’ employment with the Company ended on March 31, 2019, she is not eligible to receive any payments under the MIP.

Long-Term Equity Compensation

Prior to our IPO, we granted equity awards in the form of stock options to our named executive officers under the Allied Specialty Vehicles, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan”). In connection with our IPO, we adopted, and our shareholders approved, a new equity compensation plan in the form of an omnibus incentive plan (the “Omnibus Plan”), which replaced the existing 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

We have not granted any equity awards under the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan since January 26, 2017, but there are still stock options outstanding under this plan.

The Omnibus Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options, SARs, restricted stock, RSUs, performance awards, deferred awards, other share-based awards and other cash-based awards. The Board, or, to the extent authority is delegated by the Board, the Compensation Committee or other committee (each, an, “Administrator”) will determine the effect of a termination of employment or service on outstanding awards, including whether the awards will vest, become exercisable, settle or be forfeited. Under the Omnibus Plan, in the event of a change in control, except as otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, the Administrator may provide for: (1) continuation or assumption of outstanding awards under the Omnibus Plan by us (if we are the surviving corporation) or by the surviving corporation or its parent; (2) substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of awards with substantially the same terms and value as such outstanding awards under the Omnibus Plan; (3) acceleration of the vesting (including the lapse of any restrictions, with any performance criteria or conditions deemed met at target) or the right to exercise outstanding awards immediately prior to the date of the change in control and the expiration of awards not timely exercised by the date determined by the Administrator; or (4) in the case of outstanding stock options and SARs, cancelation in consideration of a payment in cash or other consideration equal to the intrinsic value of the award.

For fiscal year 2019, our named executive officers received grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which provide long-term incentives to our named executive officers while aligning their interests with our stockholders. RSUs generally vest in equal, annual installments over a four-year period, but may have a shorter vesting period in the case of new hires who are forfeiting compensation to previous employers. When determining each named executive officer’s award, we considered market compensation data, the executive’s experience, responsibilities and unique leadership skills, as well as the retentive effect of the equity award.

We anticipate that we will continue to use equity awards as an integral part of our executive compensation program. Equity awards are an important component of compensation for named executive officers and other executive leadership positions. REV Group provides annual equity awards in alignment with market compensation practices and to align interests with our stockholders. For fiscal year 2020, we plan to grant our equity awards in the form of restricted stock in order to maximize tax deductibility.

Employment Arrangements with Named Executive Officers

Offer Letters

Each of our named executive officers received an offer letter from the Company that follows a common template and sets forth the named executive officer’s annual base salary and cash incentive payment based on a target level of annual base salary. The offer letters for Messrs. Sullivan and Nolden and Ms. Stephens also set forth an initial stock option grant, while the offer letters for Messrs. Walsh, Boettinger and Daniels set forth an initial RSU grant.

Severance and Change in Control Agreements

We maintain a severance policy, and, in addition, each of our named executive officers have signed a Change in Control Severance Agreement (“CIC Agreement”). The purpose of the severance policy and the CIC Agreement is to provide reasonable and consistent severance benefits upon qualifying termination events. The severance policy and CIC Agreement are described in more detail below under “—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control”.

Restrictive Covenant Agreements

Each of our named executive officers is a party to the REV Restrictive Covenant Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”), which provides that during the employment period and for one year following a termination of employment, the named executive officer will not, directly or indirectly, solicit our employees or customers. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement also prevents each named executive officer from directly or indirectly competing with the Company during the employment period and for one year following a termination of employment. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement contains a perpetual nondisclosure covenant.

Other Benefits

Retirement Plan

We maintain a qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan for all of our employees. Our named executive officers participate in this plan on the same basis as our employees generally. Under the plan, employees may elect to defer eligible pay up to the annual maximum allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company makes a safe harbor matching contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% of salary contributed by a participating employee, and a 50% matching contribution of the next 2% of salary contributed by a participating employee, for a total employer matching contribution of 4%. Company matching contributions begin after enrollment, and participating employees are 100% vested immediately in such contributions.

Deferred Compensation Plan

Our named executive officers and all of our highly compensated employees (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) are eligible to participate in the REV Group, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). Eligibility to participate in the deferred compensation plan is limited to a select group of management or highly compensated employees. Participants are permitted to defer between 1% and 100% of their base salary and annual incentive payment. Participants select the allocation of their accounts among investment indices selected by the Company. The Company does not provide matching contributions to participants of the deferred compensation plan. Our Board may amend the plan at any time, as long as such amendment does not have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a participant’s accounts. None of our named executive officers currently participate in the deferred compensation plan.

Health, Welfare and Other Benefit Plans

Our named executive officers are entitled to the same health and welfare benefits as our employees generally, including medical, dental and vision insurance, as well as flex and health savings accounts, life insurance, short-term disability insurance (fully paid by the Company), long-term disability insurance, accident insurance and critical illness insurance.

We offer relocation benefits to newly hired named executive officers as necessary. Mr. Walsh was eligible for relocation benefits in fiscal year 2019. Our named executive officers did not receive any other perquisites in fiscal year 2019 and we do not provide any named executive officer with any tax gross-ups or other reimbursement for amounts the executive officer might pay pursuant to Section 280G or Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code or otherwise.

Named Executive Officers who Separated in Fiscal Year 2019

Ms. Stephens’ employment with the Company ended on March 31, 2019. In connection with the end of her employment with the Company, Ms. Stephens will receive, for a period of 12 months following her employment ending, payments in an amount to cover the employer portion of the COBRA benefit premiums. Any unvested stock options or RSU awards which had been awarded to Ms. Stephens, but remain unvested as of March 31, 2019, will continue to vest until March 31, 2020 in accordance with the applicable award agreement as if Ms. Stephens were an active employee. Any unvested equity in the Company which remains at March 31, 2020 will be forfeited.

Ms. Stephens is subject to restrictive covenants of (i) non-‎competition for 12 months; (ii) non-solicitation of employees or existing or prospective clients of the ‎Company for 12 months; (iii) ‎confidential information non-disclosure in perpetuity; and (iv) non-disparagement of the Company or its affiliates in perpetuity.

Compensation Risk Assessment

Our Compensation Committee has performed a review of compensation policies and practices for all of our employees and has concluded that our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We believe it is important for our named executive officers to be owners in the Company to ensure the alignment of their goals with the interests of our stockholders. In connection with our IPO, we established guidelines of equity ownership for our Chief Executive Officer equivalent to five times his base salary and for our other executive officers equivalent to three times their respective base salaries. Each has a transition period of five years to meet the requirements set forth in the guidelines to the extent they are not currently in compliance with this guideline. As of the date hereof, Mr. Nolden and Mr. Walsh have satisfied the equity ownership guidelines, and our other named executive officers are on track to achieve these guidelines within the required five year period. The Compensation Committee reviews the stock ownership of the executive officers on an annual basis to ensure compliance with the ownership guidelines.

Accounting and Tax Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”) generally imposes a $1 million cap on federal income tax deduction for compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and to certain other highly compensated officers during any fiscal year. Under a special Section 162(m) exception, compensation paid pursuant to a compensation plan in existence before the effective date of our IPO will generally not be subject to the $1 million limitation until the first meeting of stockholders at which directors are elected after the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the IPO occurs. The Board and our Compensation Committee continues to have the flexibility to pay nondeductible compensation if it believes it is in the best interests of the Company, including when it believes such payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.

Any equity awards that may be granted to our employees, including our executive officers, pursuant to the Omnibus Plan or any other long-term incentive plans that we may adopt, will be reflected in our consolidated financial statements, based upon the applicable accounting guidance, at fair market value on the grant date in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.”

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Severance Policy. The Severance Policy provides severance payments to participants upon an “involuntary separation from service,” which includes an elimination for lack of work, cost containment, a general reduction in force, or other reasons unrelated to job performance. An “involuntary separation from service” specifically excludes a termination of employment for cause or otherwise due to job performance or other job-related matters. In order to receive severance payments, a participant must have been employed by the Company for a minimum of twelve months. Receipt of severance payments is contingent on a participant’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims. Pursuant to the Severance Policy, as of October 31, 2019, Messrs. Sullivan, Nolden, Walsh and Boettinger would have been eligible to receive a severance payment equal to one year of his or her annual base salary. Mr. Daniels was not eligible to receive a severance payment because he was not employed for twelve months as of October 31, 2019.

The following amounts reflect the severance payments our named executive officers would have been eligible to receive under the Severance Policy upon experiencing an “involuntary separation from service” on October 31, 2019:

☐	Timothy W. Sullivan—$880,000
☐	Dean J. Nolden—$415,000
☐	Ian Walsh—$500,000
☐	Stephen W. Boettinger—$375,000
☐	Christopher M. Daniels—$0

Change in Control Severance Agreements. Our named executive officers have signed Change in Control ‎Severance Agreements (“CIC Agreement”) which provides for double-trigger payments upon a qualifying termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company ‎‎(“Change in Control”). The termination payment upon a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to two or three times the sum of (i) the named executive officer’s ‎base salary in effect as of the termination of employment, or if higher, the named executive officer’s base salary ‎that was in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, plus (ii) the greater of (x) the named executive ‎officer’s target MIP for the Company’s fiscal year that includes the named executive officer’s termination date or ‎‎(y) the executive’s target MIP for the fiscal year during which the Change in Control occurred. The termination ‎payment shall be contingent on the named executive officer executing a general release of claims and the ‎expiration of the revocation period applicable to the release.

Except as otherwise provided in the CIC Agreement, ‎the termination payment shall be paid to the executive in a cash lump sum as soon as practical following the ‎named executive officer’s execution of, and expiration of the revocation period provided for, in the release. ‎Pursuant to the release, following the termination of his or her employment with the Company, each named ‎executive officer is generally subject to restrictive covenants of (i) trade secret non-disclosure for perpetuity; (ii) ‎confidential information non-disclosure for two years; (iii) non-solicitation of existing or prospective clients of the ‎Company for 24 months; (iv) non-solicitation of employees of the Company for 12 months; and (v) non-‎competition for 24 months. The named executive officer shall not be required to mitigate the amount of the ‎termination payment by securing other employment or otherwise, nor will such termination payment be reduced by ‎reason of the named executive officer securing other employment or for any other reason. If the named executive ‎officer is entitled to the termination payment under the CIC Agreement, the termination payment shall be in lieu of ‎any payments under any other severance policy or practice of the Company.‎

The following amounts reflect the severance payments our named executive officers would have been eligible ‎to receive under a Change in Control Severance Agreement upon experiencing a Change in Control on October 31, 2019:‎

☐	Timothy W. Sullivan—$2,640,000
☐	Dean J. Nolden—$800,000
☐	Ian Walsh—$1,000,000
☐	Stephen W. Boettinger—$750,000
☐	Christopher M. Daniels—$0

Mr. Walsh’s PSU Award Agreement. Mr. Walsh’s PSU Award Agreement provides that if Mr. Walsh’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason within 12 months following a change in control, 100% of his target PSUs will become immediately vested.

No Single Trigger Accelerated Vesting Upon Change in Control. Our named executive officers do not hold any unvested equity awards, including stock options, that would have vested if a change in control had occurred on October 31, 2019.

Payments Upon Termination of Former Executive Officers. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement entered into between the Company and Ms. Stephens on March 31, 2019, Ms. Stephens will receive, for a period of 12 months following her employment ending, payments in an amount to cover the employer portion of the COBRA benefit premiums. Any unvested stock options or RSU awards which had been awarded to Ms. Stephens, but remain unvested as of March 31, 2019, will continue to vest until March 31, 2020 in accordance with the applicable award agreement as if Ms. Stephens were an active employee. Any unvested equity in the Company which remains at March 31, 2020 will be forfeited.

OTHER COMPENSATION INFORMATION

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table summarizes our equity compensation plan information as of October 31, 2019:

Plan Category	Number of Securities to Be Issued Upon Exercise of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights (1) (a)	Weighted-average Exercise Price of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights (2) (b)	Number of Securities Remaining Available for Future Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a)) (3) (c)
Equity Compensation Plans Approved by Security Holders	2,090,739	$7.64	6,964,440
Equity Compensation Plans Not Approved by Security Holders	0	N/A	0
Total	2,090,739		6,964,440

(1)	Includes outstanding stock options granted under the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan and unvested restricted and performance stock units granted under the Omnibus Plan.
(2)	Represents the weighted-average exercise price of the outstanding nonqualified stock options. Restricted and performance stock units do not provide for an exercise price.
(3)	Includes 591,886 shares that remain available for issuance under the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan and 6,372,554 shares that remain available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan (excluding the securities reflected in column (a)).

Pay Ratio

As of October 31, 2019 our employee population consisted of approximately 7,605 individuals, of which approximately 7,332 (96.4%) were working in the United States and 273 (3.6%) were working in Brazil. Given the logistical difficulties and significant difference in the composition and total compensation in Brazil, we elected to exclude all of our employees in Brazil from our determination of the median employee. We chose October 31 as the measurement date for 2019, rather than October 24 which we used for 2018 in order to align with our fiscal year and to improve internal tracking and reporting. The same median employee was selected for 2019 as for 2018 from an adjusted employee population of 7,332. The Company believes there has been no change to its employee population or employee compensation arrangements that would result in a significant change to the pay ratio disclosure. For fiscal year 2019, our median employee’s annual total compensation was $44,567, and our Chief Executive Officer’s annual total compensation was $4,085,605. Our median employee, and his/her annual total compensation, were determined using the same methodology we used to determine the annual total compensation of our named executive officers. Our estimate of the ratio of our Chief Executive Officer’s annual total compensation to our median employee’s total compensation for fiscal year 2019 is 92:1.

Director Compensation

The following table sets forth a summary of the compensation we paid to each non-employee member of our Board for fiscal year 2019. Other than as set forth in the table and described more fully below, we did not pay any compensation to,

make any equity awards or non-equity awards to, or pay any other compensation to any of the other non-employee members of our Board in fiscal year 2019. Tim Sullivan was a member of our Board who also served as our Chief Executive Officer and therefore did not receive any additional compensation for his service as a director. The directors who are employed by AIP also do not receive any compensation for their service.

STOCKHOLDERS SHARING AN ADDRESS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for information statements with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single information statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

Brokers with account holders who are REV stockholders may be “householding” our information statements. A single information statement may be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you notify your broker or the Company that you no longer wish to participate in “householding.”

If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding”, you may (1) notify your broker or (2) direct your written request to: 111 E. Kilbourn Avenue, Suite 2600, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of this Information Statement at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker. In addition, the Company will promptly deliver, upon written request to the address above or oral request at (786) 279-7021, a separate copy of the information statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.
