3 PART I ITEM 1--BUSINESS JLG Industries, Inc. is the world's leading producer of mobile aerial work platforms and a leading manufacturer of variable-reach material handlers and telescopic hydraulic excavators which are marketed under the JLG and Gradall trademarks. Sales are made principally to rental companies and distributors that rent and sell the Company's products to a diverse customer base, which includes users in the industrial, commercial, institutional and construction markets. The Company has organized its business into two segments consisting of Machinery and Equipment Services. MACHINERY PRODUCTS Aerial work platforms are designed to permit workers to position themselves, their tools and materials effectively and quickly in elevated work areas that otherwise might have to be reached by the erection of scaffolding, by the use of ladders, or through other devices. Aerial work platforms consist of boom, scissor and vertical mast lifts. These work platforms are mounted at the end of telescoping and/or articulating booms or on top of scissor-type or other vertical lifting mechanisms, which, in turn, are mounted on mobile chassis. The Company offers aerial work platforms powered by electric motors, gasoline, diesel, or propane engines. All of the Company's aerial work platforms are designed for stable operation in elevated positions. JLG boom lifts are especially useful for reaching over machinery and equipment that is mounted on floors and for reaching other elevated positions not effectively approached by other vertical lifting devices. The Company produces boom lift models of various sizes with platform heights of up to 150 feet. The boom may be rotated up to 360 degrees in either direction, raised or lowered from vertical to below horizontal, and extended while the work platform remains horizontal and stable. These machines can be maneuvered forward or backward and steered in any direction by the operator from the work platform, even while the boom is extended. Boom-type models have standard-sized work platforms, which vary in size up to 3 by 8 feet, and the rated lift capacities range from 500 to 1,000 pounds. JLG scissor lifts are designed to provide larger work areas, and generally to allow for heavier loads than boom lifts. Scissor lifts may be maneuvered in a manner similar to boom lifts, but the platforms may be extended only vertically, except for an available option that extends the deck horizontally up to 6 feet. Scissor lifts are available in various models, with maximum platform heights of up to 50 feet and various platform sizes up to 6 by 14 feet. The rated lift capacities range from 500 to 2,500 pounds. JLG self-propelled and push-around vertical mast lifts consist of a work platform attached to an aluminum mast that extends vertically, which, in turn, is mounted on either a push-around or self-propelled base. Available in various models, these machines in their retracted position can fit through standard door openings, yet reach platform heights of up to 41 feet when fully extended. The rated lift capacity is 350 pounds. Gradall rough-terrain, variable-reach material handlers are typically used by residential, non-residential and institutional building contractors for lifting, transporting and placing a wide variety of materials at their point of use or storage. The Company manufactures and markets rough-terrain, variable-reach material handlers with rated lift capacities ranging from 6,000 to 10,000 pounds and lifting heights of up to 55 feet. Gradall excavators are distinguished from other types of excavators by their telescoping, rotating booms. The boom's arm-like motion increases the machine's versatility, maximizing the potential of the machine to use a wide variety of attachments. Excavators are typically used by contractors and government agencies for ditching, sloping, finish grading, general maintenance and infrastructure projects. Specialized excavator models are used in mining and railroad maintenance applications. EQUIPMENT SERVICES The Company's Equipment Services operations focus on after-sales service and support activities, including replacement parts sales, equipment rentals, training, used equipment sales and used equipment reconditioning. 2 4 This business is a significant factor in overall customer satisfaction and a strong contributor to the equipment purchase decision. The Company distributes replacement parts to customers through a system of parts depots and supplier direct shipment programs. These parts depots provide the Company's customers with immediate access to all the parts required to support the Company's equipment. Sales of replacement parts have historically been less cyclical and typically generate higher margins than sales of new equipment. The Company has been expanding its reliance on e-commerce using Internet-based technology in an effort to develop ever-closer relationships with its customers. To further this end, the Company handles most of its warranty transactions and nearly half of its parts orders via the Internet. The Company's rental fleet is used to support customer demands for rent-to-purchase financing and long-term rental contracts. Equipment Services also re-markets customer trade-ins and repairs and rebuilds equipment. This operation has been certified as meeting ISO 9002 standards relating to customer service quality. The Company supports the sales, service, and rental programs of its customers with product advertising, co-operative promotional programs, major trade show participation, and training programs covering service, products and safety. The Company supplements domestic sales and service support to its international customers through its overseas facilities in Australia, Germany, Italy, Norway, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom and joint ventures in Thailand and the Netherlands. To facilitate the sale of its products, the Company provides an array of financing and leasing services to its customers and end-users through its JLG Capital operation. These programs are diverse and provide customers with various financing options and are generally funded through third party financial institutions, with limited recourse to the Company. Financing has become an increasingly integral part of the Company's business. MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION The Company's products are marketed internationally through independent rental companies and a network of independent distributors who rent and sell the Company's products and provide service support as well as other sales and service branches or organizations in which the Company holds equity positions. North American customers are located in all fifty states in the U.S., as well as in Canada and Mexico. International customers are located in Europe, the Asia/Pacific region, Australia, Japan and South America. The Company has branches or owns controlling interests in sales and service operations in South Africa, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Poland, the United kingdom and Australia and is a party to joint venture arrangements which serve as a distributor in Thailand and as a rental operation in the Netherlands. For 2000, sales to one customer amounted to 19% of sales and sales to a different customer amounted to 13% of sales. Sales to another customer amounted to 13% of sales for 1998. Certain of the Company's operations have been certified as meeting ISO-9001 and 9002 standards. The Company believes that certification is valuable because a number of customers require certification as a condition to doing business. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT The Company invests significantly in product development and diversification, including improvement of existing products and modification of existing products for special applications. Product development expenditures totaled $15,751,000, $9,279,000 and $9,579,000 for the fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. New and redesigned products introduced in the past two years accounted for approximately 35% of fiscal 2000 sales. The Company has various registered trademarks and patents relating to its products and business. While the Company considers them to be beneficial in the operation of its business, the Company is not dependent on any single patent or trademark or group of patents or trademarks. 3 5 COMPETITION The Company operates in the global construction and industrial equipment market. The Company's competitors range from some of the world's largest multi-national industrial equipment manufacturers to small single-product niche manufacturers. Within this global market segment, the Company faces competition principally from nine significant aerial work platform manufacturers and approximately 26 smaller manufacturers, 15 variable-reach material handler manufacturers and numerous other manufacturers of other products such as boom trucks, cherry pickers, mast climbers and various types of earth moving equipment that offer similar or overlapping functionality to the Company's products. The Company believes it is the world's leading manufacturer of boom lifts and scissor lifts and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of vertical mast lifts and variable-reach material handlers. The Company is currently a niche provider of excavators, but within the narrow category of highway-speed, wheeled, telescoping excavators, the Company believes that it is the world's leading supplier. The Company's Equipment Services operation principally competes with the above-mentioned manufacturers as well as certain of its customers particularly in the reconditioning and used equipment markets. Additionally, the Company faces competition for replacement parts from its suppliers and distributors who sell generic parts. MATERIAL AND SUPPLY ARRANGEMENTS The Company obtains raw materials, principally steel; other component parts, most notably engines, drive motors, tires, bearings and hydraulics; and supplies from third parties. The Company also outsources certain assemblies and fabricated parts. The Company relies on preferred vendors as a sole source for "just-in-time" delivery of many raw materials and manufactured components. The Company believes these arrangements have resulted in reduced investment requirements, greater access to technology developments and lower per-unit costs. Because the Company maintains limited raw material and component inventories, even brief unanticipated delays in delivery by suppliers may adversely affect the Company's ability to satisfy its customers on a timely basis and thereby affect the Company's financial performance. PRODUCT LIABILITY Because the Company's products are used to elevate and move personnel and materials above the ground, use of the Company's products involves exposure to personal injury, as well as property damage, particularly if operated improperly or without proper maintenance. The Company's estimates with respect to claims are based on internal evaluations of the merits of individual claims and the reserves assigned by the Company's independent firm. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting accrued liability are reviewed frequently, and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current earnings. Reserves are based on actual incidents and do not necessarily directly relate to sales activity. Based upon the Company's best estimate of anticipated losses, product liability costs approximated 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0% of net sales, for the years ended July 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. For additional information relative to product liability insurance coverage and cost, see the note entitled Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Item 8 of Part II of this report. EMPLOYEES The Company had 3,770 and 3,960 persons employed as of July 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company believes its employee relations are good. Approximately 12% of the Company's employees are represented by a union under a contract which expires April 20, 2003. FOREIGN OPERATIONS The Company manufactures its products in the U.S. for sale throughout the world. Sales to customers outside the U.S. were 24%, 27% and 32% of total net sales for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Sales to European customers were 17%, 19% and 18% of total net sales for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, 4 6 respectively. The decreases in the percentage from 1999 to 2000 were due principally to the weighting resulting from the Gradall acquisition. EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

This summary should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis. All share and per share data have been adjusted for the two-for-one stock splits distributed in April and October 1995 and the three-for-one stock split distributed in July 1996. Amounts subsequent to 1998 reflect the acquisition of Gradall Industries, Inc. in June 1999. 7 9 ITEM 7-- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the year ended July 31, 2000, sales were a record $1.056 billion, up 47% from the $720 million reported for 1999. The acquisition of Gradall in June 1999 represented $177 million or 53% of the increase. Machinery sales were $931 million for 2000, an increase of $286 million, or 44%, from the $645 million for 1999. The increase included $158 million resulting from the acquisition of Gradall and gains across substantially all product classes and markets. Equipment Services sales for 2000 were $125 million, up $50 million or 67% compared to prior year. The increase in Equipment Services sales was attributable to sales of used equipment obtained primarily from trade-ins and sales resulting from a reduction in the Company's rental fleet as customers exercised purchase options converting rentals to sales. For the year ended July 31, 1999, sales were $720 million, an increase of 36% from $531 million for 1998. The acquisition of Gradall contributed $28 million to 1999 sales. Machinery sales were $645 million compared to $464 million for the prior year. Equipment Service sales were $75 million and $67 million for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The 36% top line growth for 1999 is principally attributable to steps the Company took to substantially expand its customer base, a continuing strong market for its products, the strong customer acceptance of new products and the contribution of Gradall. The Company's sales by product (in thousands) consisted of the following for the years ended July 31:
2000 1999 1998 ---------- -------- -------- Aerial work platforms....................... $ 790,352 $642,151 $485,171 Material handlers........................... 125,749 7,295 -- Excavators.................................. 60,144 18,367 -- Service parts, rentals, rebuilds and sales of rental fleet and used equipment........ 79,923 52,411 45,688 ---------- -------- -------- $1,056,168 $720,224 $530,859 ---------- -------- --------
International sales for 2000 were $250 million, up 29% from 1999. As a percentage of sales, international sales were 24%, 27% and 32% of total net sales for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in the percentage from 1999 to 2000 was due principally to the weighting resulting from the Gradall acquisition. Sales from new and redesigned products, defined as those introduced over a two-year period, represented 35%, 30% and 32% of sales in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Gross profit, as a percent of sales, decreased to 22% in 2000 from 23% in 1999. Gross profit was adversely affected by continuing pricing pressure, including the significant rise in the value of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies, particularly the Euro, and the impact of additional price discounts associated with the acceptance of trade-ins to displace competitor products during the year. The gross profit margin was favorably affected by the success of the Company's aggressive cost reduction programs. Gross profit, as a percent of sales, decreased to 23% in 1999 from 24% in 1998. This reduction was affected by competitive and program-related pricing, costs of meeting higher production demand and start-up costs related to new product introductions. These higher costs were partially offset by ongoing cost reduction efforts. Selling, administrative and product development expenses as a percentage of sales were 10% for fiscal 2000 compared to 11% for 1999 and 10% for 1998. The $34 million increase in selling, administrative and product development costs compared to 1999 was principally a result of the acquisition of Gradall in June 1999 which totaled $17 million, increased sales and service activities, higher employee retirement expenses and increased bad debt provisions. For 1999, the increase in dollars is primarily the result of higher personnel and related costs associated with the Company's expanding customer base and the impact of the Gradall acquisition. For 2000, goodwill amortization was $6 million, primarily due to the Gradall acquisition. The increase in interest expense for 2000 was due to an increase in average borrowings to fund the Gradall acquisition and seasonal working capital investments. In 1999, miscellaneous income included higher investment income earned 8 10 on cash balances and lower currency conversion losses. For 1998, miscellaneous expense was primarily comprised of currency conversion losses of $2 million, partially offset by investment income. The effective income tax rates were 37%, 33% and 34% for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in the 2000 effective tax rate was principally due to goodwill charges not being tax deductible. The rate for 1999 included an $1 million benefit to net income resulting from a change in accounting estimate, primarily attributable to additional tax incentives related to export sales for the 1998 year. FINANCIAL CONDITION Operating activities generated cash of $106 million 2000 compared to $35 million of cash generated 1999. The increase in cash flow from operations for 2000 was primarily due to proceeds received from the sale of a portion of the Company's accounts receivable and an increase in the days purchases outstanding. Partially offsetting these benefits was an increase in inventory due to higher sales activity, an increase in stocking locations in Europe and the Company's decision to maintain sufficient inventory to match its customers' seasonal demand. Working capital increased in 1999 primarily due to increased receivable and inventory levels as well as the effects of the Gradall acquisition. Investing activities used cash of $14 million in 2000 compared to cash used of $233 million in 1999. During 2000, the Company made a strategic decision to downsize its rental fleet resulting in a net reduction of $8 million compared to a $5 million increase in 1999. The cash usage in 1999 was principally due to the expenditure to acquire Gradall. Financing activities used cash of $84 million in fiscal 2000 compared to cash provided of $160 million in 1999. The cash usage in 2000 was primarily the result of debt reduction and a Company share repurchase. At July 31, 2000, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase an additional 4.2 million shares of its capital stock. The cash provided in 1999 resulted principally from debt used to acquire Gradall. The Company will continue to have cash requirements to support seasonal working capital needs and capital expenditures, to pay interest and to repay debt. At July 31, 2000, the Company had unused credit lines totaling $277 million. In order to meet its future cash requirements, the Company intends to use internally generated funds and to borrow under its credit facilities. The Company believes that these resources will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements over the next 12 months. In addition to measuring its cash flow generation and usage based upon the operating, investing, and financing classifications included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company also measures its free cash flow. Free cash flow, a measure commonly employed by the financial community, is defined by the Company as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures including equipment held for rental, plus proceeds from the disposal of assets and unrealized currency gains or losses. During 2000, the Company had free cash flow of $92 million compared to negative free cash flow of $198 million for the corresponding period in 1999. The 1999 use of cash was primarily due to the acquisition of Gradall. The Company's exposure to product liability claims is discussed in the note entitled Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this report. Future results of operations, financial condition and liquidity may be affected to the extent that the Company's ultimate exposure with respect to product liability varies from current estimates. OUTLOOK This Outlook section and other parts of this Management's Discussion and Analysis contain forward-looking information and involve certain risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. Certain important factors that, in some cases have affected, and in the future could affect, the Company's results of operations and that could cause such future results of operations to differ are described in "Cautionary Statements Pursuant to the Securities Litigation Reform Act" which is an exhibit to this report. As an industry leader, the Company is positioned to capitalize on the challenging -- but opportunity-rich -- marketplace in fiscal 2001. The global equipment rental business is expected to continue its robust growth, 9 11 leading to additional economies of scale and broadened end-user awareness that should further expand the demand for the Company's products. Management expects to grow sales not only through market share gains, but also through pull-through marketing initiatives designed to increase demand for the Company's products. Demand for the Company's equipment is anticipated to remain strong in fiscal 2001. Domestic demand for excavators should benefit from anticipated increases in Federal highway spending. Similarly, management expects sales of material handlers to grow through greater penetration at the major rental companies, new product introductions and increased demand from end-users for the Company's brand. Additionally, the rapid growth of AWP usage in Europe is anticipated to continue into fiscal 2001, leading to continuing growth in the Company's overseas markets. The Company also expects to introduce a substantial number of new products in fiscal 2001. The Company also expects to continue to reduce costs and to increase cash flow as management continues to enhance Gradall's operations and improve its capacity utilization and manufacturing processes. MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, which could affect its future results of operations and financial condition. The Company manages its exposure to these risks principally through its regular operating and financing activities. While the Company is exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of its outstanding debt, the Company does not currently utilize any derivative financial instruments related to its interest rate exposure. Total short-term and long-term debt outstanding at July 31, 2000 was $98 million, consisting of $93 million in variable-rate borrowing and $5 million in fixed-rate borrowing. At this level of variable-rate borrowing, a hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates would decrease pre-tax current year earnings by approximately $700,000 at July 31, 2000. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not result in a material change in the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate debt. The Company manufactures its products in the United States and sells these products in that market as well as international markets, principally Europe and Australia. As a result of the sales of its products in foreign markets, the Company's earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar, as compared to foreign currencies resulting from transactions in foreign markets. At July 31, 2000, the result of a uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the dollar relative to the currencies in which the Company's transactions are denominated would have the result of reducing gross profits for the year ended July 31, 2000 by approximately $18 million. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition to the direct effects of changes in exchange rates, such changes also affect the volume of sales or the foreign currency sales price as competitors' products become more or less attractive. The Company's sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local currency prices. 10 12 ITEM 8--FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA JLG INDUSTRIES, INC.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. 14 16 JLG INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA AND UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND STATEMENT PRESENTATION: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. RECLASSIFICATIONS: Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used for 2000. USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates. REVENUE RECOGNITION: Sales of machinery and service parts are generally unconditional sales that are recorded when product is shipped and invoiced to independently owned and operated distributors and customers. Provisions for warranty are estimated and accrued at the time of sale. Actual warranty costs do not materially differ from estimates. In addition, net sales include rental revenues earned on the lease of equipment held for rental. Rental revenues are recognized in the period earned over the lease term. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents and classifies such amounts as cash. INVENTORIES: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method. Inventories consist of the following at July 31:
2000 1999 -------- -------- Finished goods.......................................... $ 97,858 $ 68,994 Raw materials and work in process....................... 52,775 61,105 -------- -------- 150,633 130,099 Less LIFO provision..................................... 2,642 4,528 -------- -------- $147,991 $125,571 ======== ========
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND EQUIPMENT HELD FOR RENTAL: Property, plant and equipment and equipment held for rental are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of 15 years for land improvements, 10 to 20 years for buildings and improvements, three to 10 years for machinery and equipment, and three to seven years for equipment held for rental. Depreciation expense was $19,804, $18,780 and $15,750 for the fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 15 17 GOODWILL: Goodwill represents the difference between the total purchase price and the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in business acquisitions. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 10 to 25 years. Long-lived assets, including intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If an impairment indicator is present, the Company evaluates whether an impairment exists on the basis of undiscounted expected future cash flows from operations for the remaining amortization period. If an impairment exists, the asset is reduced by the estimated shortfall of discounted cash flows. INCOME TAXES: Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from differences between the tax basis of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax balances are determined by using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes are paid or refunds received. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT: The Company incurred product development and other engineering expenses of $15,751, $9,279 and $9,579 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, which were charged to expense as incurred. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK: Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables. The Company had 14% of accounts receivable, including securitization, due from one customer at July 31, 2000. This concentration of credit risk is mitigated by a geographically diverse customer base and the Company's credit and collection process. The Company performs credit evaluations for all customers and secures transactions with letters of credit where it believes the risk warrants it. Write-offs for uncollected trade receivables have not been significant. ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION: All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed in the year incurred. Advertising and promotion expense was $7,064, $5,742 and $2,928 in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: The financial statements of the Company's Australian operation are measured in its local currency and then translated into U.S. dollars. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the current rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Results of operations have been translated using the average rates prevailing throughout the year. Translation gains or losses resulting from the changes in the exchange rates from year-to-year are accumulated in a separate component of shareholders' equity. The financial statements of the Company's European operation are prepared using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. The transactions of this operation that are denominated in foreign currencies have been remeasured in U.S. dollars, and any resulting gain or loss is reported in income. The aggregate of foreign currency transaction losses included in the results of operations were $1,879, $398 and $1,611 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires that an entity record all derivatives in the statement of financial position at their fair value. It also requires changes in the fair value of derivatives to be recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is 16 18 designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. The Company is required to adopt this new accounting standard beginning August 1, 2000. The Company does not expect adoption of this statement to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. All registrants are expected to apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB 101. The Company does not believe that its revenue recognition policy will be significantly affected by the adoption of SAB 101; however, additional implementation guidance is to be issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will complete its evaluation of the adoption of SAB 101 once this information is released. The Company is required to adopt SAB 101 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. BANK CREDIT LINES AND LONG-TERM DEBT The Company has a $20 million unsecured bank revolving line of credit with a term of one year, renewable annually, and at an interest rate of prime or a spread over LIBOR. The Company also has $2.5 million in loan facilities with a term of one year, renewable annually, and at a fixed weighted average interest rate of 5.7%. Outstanding amounts under these lines of credit were $8.5 million and $2.7 million at July 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company has two separate credit agreements with a group of financial institutions that provide for a unsecured revolving credit facility with an aggregate commitment of $350 million and with a remaining term of four years. Borrowings under the agreements bear interest equal to either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.55% to 1.125%, depending on the Company's ratio of funded debt to EBITDA; or the greater of prime or federal funds rate plus 0.50%. The Company is required to pay an annual administrative fee of $35 and a facility fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.275%, depending on the Company's ratio of funded debt to EBITDA. The credit agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants including financial covenants requiring the maintenance of specified consolidated interest coverage, leverage ratios and a minimum net worth. Long-term debt was as follows at July 31:
2000 1999 ------- -------- Revolving credit facilities due 2004 with an average interest rate of 7.6% at July 31, 2000................. $87,000 $169,912 Other.................................................... 2,781 3,225 ------- -------- 89,781 173,137 Less current portion..................................... 663 625 ------- -------- $89,118 $172,512 ======= ========
Interest paid on all borrowings was $20,015, $811 and $251 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The aggregate amounts of long-term debt outstanding at July 31, 2000 which will become due in 2001 through 2005 are: $663, $378, $324, $87,262 and $133, respectively. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated to approximate the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet based on current interest rates for similar types of borrowings. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION In July 2000, the Company entered into a three-year receivables purchase agreement with an independent issuer of receivables-backed commercial paper. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to sell to a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, on an ongoing basis and without recourse, a designated pool of accounts receivable. This entity sells an undivided percentage ownership interest in all the receivables to a third-party. To maintain the balance in the pool of accounts receivable sold, the Company is 17 19 obligated to sell new receivables as existing receivables are collected. The agreement permits the sale of the undivided interest in accounts receivable through July 2003 of up to $65 million. At July 31, 2000, the undivided interest in the Company's pool of accounts receivable that had been sold to the purchasers aggregated $57 million, which was used to retire debt outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facilities. Sales of accounts receivable are reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are included in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The ongoing costs of this program were charged to interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Company continues to service the receivables. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS Substantially all employees of the Company participate in defined contribution or non-contributory defined benefit plans. Approximately 12% of the Company's employees are covered by union-sponsored, collectively bargained multi-employer pension plans and an union employment contract which expires April 2003. The expense related to funding the multi-employer plan was $475 and $48 in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company has discretionary, defined contribution retirement plans covering its eligible U.S. employees. The Company's policy is to fund the cost as accrued. Plan assets are invested in mutual funds and the Company's capital stock. The aggregate expense relating to these plans was $7,187, $6,565 and $5,332 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company also has non-qualified defined benefit plans that provide senior management with supplemental retirement, medical, disability and death benefits. 18 20 The following table sets forth the defined benefit pension and postretirement plans' funded status and amounts recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements:

For measurement purposes, a 7.75% annual rate increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was assumed for 2000. The rate was assumed to decrease gradually to 5% by 2011 and remain at that level thereafter. Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the postretirement benefit reported as follows:

SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has organized its business into two segments consisting of manufactured products and services. The Machinery segment contains the design, manufacture and sale of new equipment, and the Equipment Services segment contains after-sales service and support, including parts sales, equipment rentals, used equipment sales and rebuilding used equipment. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating profit before interest, miscellaneous income/expense and income taxes.

The current and long-term deferred tax asset amounts are included in other current assets and other asset balances on the consolidated balance sheets. STOCK BASED INCENTIVE PLANS The Company's stock incentive plan has reserved 4,641 shares of capital stock that may be awarded to key employees in the form of options to purchase capital stock or restricted shares. The option price and vesting terms of options and restricted shares are set by the Company's Board of Directors. For all options currently outstanding, the option price is the fair market value of the shares on their date of grant. The Company's stock option plan for directors provides for an annual grant to each outside director of a single option to purchase six thousand shares of capital stock, providing the Company earned a net profit, before extraordinary items, for the prior fiscal year. The option exercise price shall be equal to the shares' fair market value on their date of grant. An aggregate of 1,849 shares of capital stock is reserved to be issued under the plan. 22 24 Outstanding options and transactions involving the plans are summarized as follows:
2000 1999 1998 -------------------------- -------------------------- -------------------------- WEIGHTED AVERAGE WEIGHTED AVERAGE WEIGHTED AVERAGE EXERCISE EXERCISE EXERCISE OPTIONS PRICE OPTIONS PRICE OPTIONS PRICE ------- ---------------- ------- ---------------- ------- ---------------- Outstanding options at the beginning of the year... 2,164 $10.81 1,795 $ 7.51 1,466 $ 4.88 Options granted........... 1,092 11.11 522 20.78 479 14.59 Options canceled..........

The Company has elected to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options. Under this opinion, the Company does not recognize compensation expense arising from such grants because the exercise price of the Company's stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
2000 1999 1998 ----- ----- ----- Volatility factor...................................... .524 .475 .478 Expected life in years................................. 3.9 2.8 3.0 Dividend yield......................................... .40% .10% .15% Interest rate.......................................... 6.12% 5.38% 5.73% Weighted-average fair market value at date of grant.... $5.06 $3.96 $5.12
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized over the options' vesting period. The Company's pro forma information follows for the years ended July 31:
2000 1999 1998 ------- ------- ------- Net income....................................... $58,398 $60,142 $46,021 Earnings per common share........................ 1.33 1.37 1.05 Earnings per common share -- assuming dilution... 1.33 1.34 1.03
23 25 BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended July 31:
2000 1999 1998 ------- ------- ------- Net income....................................... $60,507 $61,271 $46,510 ======= ======= ======= Denominator for basic earnings per share -- weighted average shares............... 43,687 43,846 43,666 Effect of dilutive securities -- employee stock options and unvested restricted shares......... 382 1,116 765 ------- ------- ------- Denominator for diluted earning per share -- weighted average shares adjusted for dilutive securities..................................... 44,069 44,962 44,431 ======= ======= ======= Earnings per common share........................ $ 1.39 $ 1.40 $ 1.07 ======= ======= ======= Earnings per common share -- assuming dilution... $ 1.37 $ 1.36 $ 1.05 ======= ======= =======
During fiscal 2000, options to purchase 1.3 million shares of capital stock at a range of $11.41 to $21.94 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the capital shares. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN Effective May 24, 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a distribution of one Right for each outstanding share of capital stock to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2000. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one-tenth of a share of Company capital stock at a purchase price of $40 per whole share of Company capital stock. The Rights will expire on May 24, 2010 unless redeemed earlier by the Company or exchanged for capital stock. Separate certificates for Rights will not be distributed, nor will the Rights be exercisable unless a person or group (an "Acquiring Person") acquires 15% or more, or announces an offer that could result in acquiring 15% or more of the Company's capital shares unless such acquisition or offer is pursuant to a Permitted Offer approved by a majority of directors who are not officers of the Company or affiliates of the Acquiring Person. Following an acquisition of 15% or more of the Company's capital shares (a "Stock Acquisition"), each Rightholder, except the 15% or more stockholder, has the right to receive, upon exercise, capital shares valued at twice the then applicable exercise price of the Right (or, under certain circumstances, cash, property or other Company securities.) Similarly, unless certain conditions are met, if the Company engages in a merger or other business combination following a Stock Acquisition where it does not survive or survives a change or exchange of its capital shares or if 50% or more of its assets, earning power or cash flow is sold or transferred, the Rights become exercisable for shares of the acquirer's stock having a value of twice the exercise price (or, under certain circumstances, cash or property.) The Rights are not exercisable, however, until the Company's right of redemption described below has expired. At any time until 10 business days following public announcement that a 15% or greater position has been acquired in the Company's stock, a majority of the Board of Directors may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right, payable, at the election of such majority of the Board of Directors in cash or shares of Company capital stock. Immediately upon the action of a majority of the Board of Directors ordering the redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the redemption price. 24 26 REPURCHASE OF CAPITAL STOCK During the year ended July 31, 2000, the Company repurchased 795 shares of its capital stock at an aggregate cost of $6.8 million. At July 31, 2000, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase an additional 4.2 million shares of its capital stock. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is a party to personal injury and property damage litigation arising out of incidents involving the use of its products. The Company's insurance program for 2000 was comprised of a self-insured retention of $7 million for domestic claims, insurance coverage of $2 million for international claims and catastrophic coverage for domestic and international claims of $75 million in excess of the retention and primary coverage. The Company contracts with an independent firm to provide claims handling and adjustment services. The Company's estimates with respect to claims are based on internal evaluations of the merits of individual claims and the reserves assigned by the Company's independent firm. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting accrued liability are reviewed frequently, and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current earnings. Claims are paid over varying periods, which generally do not exceed five years. Accrued liabilities for future claims are not discounted. With respect to all product liability claims of which the Company is aware, accrued liabilities of $16.1 million and $14.1 million were established at July 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. While the Company's ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued, the Company believes that it is unlikely that it would experience losses that are materially in excess of such reserve amounts. As of July 31, 2000 and 1999, there were no insurance recoverables or offset implications and there were no claims by the Company being contested by insurers. RESTRUCTURING COSTS During the calendar year 1997, the Company downsized and rationalized its operations. This resulted in restructuring charges for severance and termination benefits, costs associated with closing a smaller, less productive manufacturing facility and other asset impairments were $1,689 in 1998. UNAUDITED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION Unaudited financial information was as follows for the fiscal quarters within the years ended July 31:

25 27 REPORT OF MANAGEMENT The consolidated financial statements of JLG Industries, Inc. in this report were prepared by its management, which is responsible for their content. In management's opinion, the financial statements reflect amounts based upon its best estimates and informed judgments and present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls and procedures which are intended, consistent with justifiable cost, to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are executed as authorized, that they are properly recorded to produce reliable financial records, and that accountability for assets is maintained. The accounting controls and procedures are supported by careful selection and training of personnel, examination by an internal auditor and continuing management commitment to the integrity of the internal control system. The financial statements have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors. The independent auditors have evaluated the Company's internal controls and performed tests of procedures and accounting records in connection with the issuance of their reports on the fairness of the financial statements. The Board of Directors has appointed an Audit Committee composed entirely of directors who are not employees of the Company. The Audit Committee meets with representatives of management, the internal auditor and independent auditors both separately and jointly. Its functions include recommending the selection of independent auditors; conferring with the independent auditors and reviewing the scope and fees of the annual audit and the results thereof; reviewing the Company's annual report to shareholders and annual filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; reviewing the adequacy of the Company's internal audit function, as well as the accounting and financial controls and procedures; and approving the nature and scope of nonaudit services performed by the independent auditors.

October 5, 2000 26 28 REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS To The Board of Directors and Shareholders JLG Industries, Inc. McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of JLG Industries, Inc. as of July 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of JLG Industries, Inc. at July 31, 2000 and 1999, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

If, after the date of this Agreement, any enactment, promulgation or adoption of or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lenders with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for Lenders to make or maintain or fund Loans in the applicable Alternate Currency, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrowers. Upon 5 6 receipt of such notice, the applicable Alternate Currency Loan shall be repaid and/or converted to an available Alternate Currency or Dollars on either: (i) the last day of the then current Interest Period for the affected Alternate Currency Loan, if Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain a Loan at such Alternate Currency to such day, or (ii) immediately, if Lenders may not lawfully continue to so maintain such Alternate Currency Loan. c. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars or an Alternate Currency, as the case may be, based on the currency in which a Loan is made. Such requirement is of the essence hereof. If payment is not made in the currency due under this Agreement (the "Contractual Currency") or if any court or tribunal shall render a judgment or order for the payment of amounts due hereunder or under the Notes and such judgment is expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency, the Borrowers shall indemnify and hold the Lenders harmless against any deficiency incurred by the Lenders with respect to the amount received by the Lenders to the extent the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is convertible into the currency actually received or the currency in which the judgment is expressed (the "Received Currency") is not the reciprocal of the rate of exchange at which Administrative Agent would be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Received Currency, in each case on the Business Day following receipt of the Received Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures. If the court or tribunal has fixed the date on which the rate of exchange is determined for the conversion of the judgment currency into the Contractual Currency (the "Conversion Date") and if there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Conversion Date and the date of receipt by the Lenders, then the Borrowers will, notwithstanding such judgment or order, pay such additional amount (if any) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Received Currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers hereunder in the Contractual Currency. d. If any Borrower shall wind up, liquidate, dissolve or become a debtor in bankruptcy while there remains outstanding: (i) any amounts owing to the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes, (ii) any damages owing to the Lenders in respect of a breach of any of 6 7 the terms hereof, or (iii) any judgment or order rendered in respect of such amounts or damages, the Borrowers shall indemnify and hold the Lenders harmless against any deficiency with respect to the Contractual Currency in the amounts received by the Lenders arising or resulting from any variation as between: (i) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into another currency (the "Liquidation Currency") for purposes of such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy with regard to the amount in the Contractual Currency due or contingently due hereunder or under the Notes or under any judgment or order to which the relevant obligations hereunder or under the Notes shall have been merged and (ii) the rate of exchange at which Administrative Agent could, in accordance with normal banking procedures, be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Liquidation Currency at the earlier of (A) the date of payment of such amounts or damages and (B) the final date or dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy. As used in the preceding sentence, the "final date" or dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy shall be the date fixed by the liquidator under the applicable law as being the last practicable date as of which the liabilities of the applicable Borrower may be ascertained for such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy before payment by the liquidator or other appropriate person in respect thereof. e. The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Lenders against any loss or expense which the Lenders may sustain or incur in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Alternate Currency Loan or any part thereof as a consequence of (i) the Borrowers' failure to make a payment on other than the due date of such Alternate Currency Loan, or (ii) the Borrowers' failure to borrow under, convert to or renew under the applicable Alternate Currency on a binding effective date of such borrowing, conversion or renewal. Administrative Agent's determination of an amount payable under this paragraph (e) shall, in the absence of error, be conclusive and shall be payable on demand. f. Administrative Agent may from time to time in its discretion calculate the Dollar Equivalent of 7 8 an Alternate Currency Loan. In the event that the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding principal amount of the Alternate Currency Loans at any time exceeds One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000), the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of such fact to Borrowers and Lenders, and Borrowers shall be required to make a payment to Administrative Agent to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the outstanding Alternate Currency Loans so that the Dollar Equivalent thereof equals not more than One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000). Such payment shall be made within three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt of such notice given by Administrative Agent. 4. New Section 2.10 (European Economic and Monetary Union). A new Section 2.10 is hereby added to the Credit Agreement to read in its entirety as follows: 2.10. European Economic and Monetary Union. (a) Definitions. In this Section 2.10 and in each other provision of this Agreement to which reference is made to this Section expressly or implicitly, the following terms have the meanings given to them in this Section 2.10: "EMU" means economic and monetary union as contemplated in the Treaty on European Union; "EMU Legislation" means legislative measures of the European Council for the introduction of change over to or operation of a single or unified European currency, as amended from time to time; "euro" means the single currency to which participating member states are converting; "euro unit" means the currency unit of the euro; "national currency unit" means the unit of currency (other than a euro unit) of a participating member state; "participating member state" means each state so described in any EMU Legislation; and "Treaty on European Union" means the Treaty of Rome of March 25, 1957, as amended by the Single European Act 1986 and the Maastricht Treaty (which was signed at Maastricht on February 7, 1992, and came 8 9 into force on November 1, 1993), as amended from time to time. (b) Effectiveness of Provisions. The provisions of subsections (c) to (k) below (inclusive) shall be effective upon the execution of this Agreement, provided, that if and to the extent that any such provision relates to any state (or the currency of such state) that is not a participating member state upon the execution of this Agreement, such provision shall become effective in relation to such state (and the currency of such state) at and from the date on which such state becomes a participating member state. (c) Redenomination and Alternate Currencies. Each obligation of any party under this Agreement which has been denominated in the national currency unit of a non-member state which becomes a participating member state after the date of any Alternate Currency Loan made in the national currency unit of such state shall be Redenominated into the euro unit at the exchange rate set in accordance with EMU Legislation, provided, that if and to the extent that any EMU Legislation provides that an amount denominated either in the euro or in the national currency unit of a participating member state and payable within that participating member state by crediting an account of a creditor can be paid by a debtor either in the euro unit or in the national currency unit, each party to this Agreement shall be entitled to pay or repay any such amount either in the euro unit or in such national currency unit; provided, however, any amount paid in a national currency unit shall be paid at the fixed exchange rate in order to yield the required amount in euros. (d) Loans. Any Loan in the currency of a participating member state shall be made in the euro unit, provided that any loan may, if so requested by Borrowers, be made in the national currency unit (based upon fixed exchange rate) of any participating member state so long as such national currency unit continues to be available as legal tender, is freely convertible and is not subject to exchange controls. (e) Business Days. With respect to any amount denominated or to be denominated in the euro or a national currency unit, any reference to a "Business Day" shall be construed as a reference to a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are 9 10 generally open for business in New York City and prime banks in London generally provide quotations for deposits denominated in the euro and such national currency unit. (f) Payment to the Lenders. Sections of this Agreement which provide for payment or repayment in a national currency unit shall be construed so that, in relation to the payment of any amount of euro units or national currency units, such amount shall be made available to the Lenders, in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to such account with each bank (in such principal financial center) as each Lender may from time to time nominate for this purpose in accordance with this Agreement. (g) Payments by the Lenders Generally. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated in the euro or in a national currency unit, the Lenders shall not be liable to the Borrowers in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by a Lender if such Lender has made reasonable efforts to effect all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds (in the euro unit or, as the case may be, in a national currency unit) to the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the participating member state which the Borrowers shall have specified for such purpose. In this paragraph, "all relevant steps" means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as such Lender may from time to time select for the purpose of clearing or settling payment of the euro. (h) Basis of Accrual. If the basis of accrual of interest or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to the currency of any state that becomes a participating member state shall, in a Lender's reasonable judgment, be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London Interbank Market for the basis of accrual of interest or fees in respect of the euro, or if interest rate quotes for a national currency are no longer provided, such convention or practice shall replace such expressed basis effective as of and from the date on which such state becomes a participating member state; provided, that if any Alternate Currency Loan in the currency of 10 11 such state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Loan, at the end of the then current Interest Period. (i) Rounding and Other Consequential Changes. Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any EMU Legislation and without prejudice to the respective liabilities for indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Lenders and of the Lenders to the Borrowers under or pursuant to this Agreement, (i) each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in a national currency unit to be paid to or by a Lender shall be replaced by a reference to such reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in the euro unit as such Lender may from time to time specify; and (ii) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, each provision of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to combine currencies to effect a setoff, shall be subject to such reasonable changes of interpretation as Lenders may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to the euro in participating member states. (j) Exchange Indemnification and Increased Costs. The Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand from the Lenders, pay to the Lenders the amount of any loss or cost or increased cost incurred by, or of any reduction in any amount payable to or in the effective return of its capital to, or of interest or other return, including principal foregone by any Lender or its holding company as a result of the introduction of, changeover to or operation of the euro in any participating member state or Borrowers' election to borrow in a national currency and repay in the euro or to borrow in the euro and repay in a national currency other than any such cost or reduction or amount foregone reflected in the associated interest rate. 11 12 (k) Further Assurances. Borrowers agree, at the request of the Administrative Agent or a Lender, at the time of or at any time following the implementation of any EMU Legislation, to enter into an agreement amending this Agreement in order to reflect the implementation of the EMU Legislation and to place the parties hereto in the position they would have been in had such EMU Legislation not been implemented. 5. Amended Section 4.1(d) (Interest). Section 4.1(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: (d) Default Rate. Subject to Section 11.3, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the Borrowers shall no longer have the option to request LIBOR Rate Loans, (ii) all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans (including without limitation all Alternate Currency Loans) shall bear interest at a rate per annum two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans, as applicable, until the end of the applicable Interest Period, and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, (iii) all outstanding Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans. Interest shall continue to accrue on the Notes after the filing by or against the Borrowers of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any act or law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief, whether state, federal or foreign, and (iv) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, all outstanding Alternate Currency Loans shall be Redenominated into Dollars. 6. Amended Section 4.4 (Manner of Payment). Section 4.4 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: Section 4.4. Manner of Payment. (a) Except for Alternate Currency Loans, each payment by the Borrowers on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including the Reimbursement Obligation) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement or any Note shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. (Philadelphia time) on the date 12 13 specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office for the account of the Lenders (other than as set forth below) pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (except as specified below), in Dollars, in immediately available funds and shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. (b) Alternate Currency Loans shall be paid at the Administrative Agent's Alternate Lending Office no later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) and otherwise as set forth above. (c) Any payment received on such date after the time set for payment, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with such Lender's Commitment Percentage (except as specified below) and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of the Issuing Lender's fees, Lenders' facility fee or L/C Participants' commissions shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Issuing Lender or the L/C Participants, as the case may be. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent's fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11 or 13.2 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to Section 4.1(b)(ii) if any payment under this Agreement or any Note shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment. 7. Amended Section 10.1(e) (Limitations on Debt). Section 10.1(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended so that the reference to "Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000)" is replaced by "Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)". 8. Amended Section 10.3(f) (Limitations on Liens). Section 10.3(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below: 13 14 (f) Liens securing Debt permitted under Section 10.1(h); provided that (i) such Liens shall be created substantially simultaneously with the acquisition of the related asset, (ii) such Liens do not at any time encumber any property other than the property financed by such Debt, (iii) the amount of Debt secured thereby is not increased, and (iv) the principal amount of Debt secured by any such Lien shall at no time exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the original purchase price of such property at the time it was acquired. 9. Amended Section 10.6(d) (Limitations on Sales of Assets). Section 10.6(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below: (d) either: (i) the sale or discount without recourse of accounts receivable which arose in the ordinary course of business or (ii) the sale of Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets in connection with Securitizations, in each case as defined in and to the extent permitted by any consent or waiver by the Required Lenders relating thereto; provided, however, that the aggregate face amount of outstanding accounts receivable sold or discounted under clause (i) above, plus Debt outstanding in connection with Securitizations permitted under clause (ii) above, shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000); provided further, however, that for purposes of clause (i) above (but not clause (ii)), "outstanding" means those sold or discounted accounts receivable which are by their terms not due; 10. Additional Section 11.1(q) (Sale/Leaseback or Securitization Cross-Default). The following new Section 11.1(q) is hereby added to the Credit Agreement to read in its entirety as follows: (q) Sale/Leaseback or Securitization Cross-Default. Any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall (i) default in the payment of any Debt in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback or Securitization transaction beyond the period of grace if any, provided in the instrument or agreement under which such Debt was created or (ii) default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any Debt in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback or Securitization transaction or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto or any other event shall 14 15 occur or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, any such Debt to become due prior to its stated maturity (any applicable grace period having expired). 11. Consents and Waivers in connection with Sale/Leaseback Transactions. Borrowers have entered into and/or have informed Administrative Agent of their intent to enter into two types of sale/leaseback transactions. The first type is a lease arrangement whereby the Borrowers sell certain manufacturing and other equipment of the Borrowers to a lessor and lease back such equipment (an "Equipment Sale/Leaseback); the second type is a lease arrangement where the Borrowers will sell a pool of rental equipment to a lessor and lease back such equipment (a "Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback"). The following consents and waivers are intended to permit Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions as and to the extent, and subject to the conditions, set forth below: 1. Section 10.1 (Limitations on Debt). Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement prohibits the Borrowers from incurring additional Debt except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions violate or may violate Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to the Borrowers' incurrence of Debt in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions; provided, however, that: (i) in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, the transaction is limited to the equipment placed in service not more than six months prior to the effective date of such Equipment Sale/Leaseback; (ii) the amount of Debt outstanding in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback transactions (including without limitation the January 28, 2000 transaction between JLG and SunTrust Leasing Corporation for the sale and leaseback of the Torrid Powder Finishing System located at JLG's paint facility at Shippensburg, Pennsylvania) shall be applied to reduce the 20% of Net Worth basket set forth in Section 10.1(h) of the Credit Agreement; and (iii) the amount of Debt outstanding in connection with Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions, either singly or in the aggregate, shall not exceed 15% of Net Worth of JLG and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (as set forth on the most recently delivered financial statements by Borrowers to the Lenders), and such amount of Debt : (A) shall be equivalent to the sale price to the lessor of such equipment sold, less any lease amortization, in accordance with GAAP and (B) shall not be applied to reduce the 20% of Net Worth basket set forth in Section 10.1(h) of the Credit Agreement. 2. Section 10.3 (Limitations on Liens). Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring Liens on any of their assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions violate or may violate Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement because the lessor would have an effective lien on :(i) the Borrowers' assets transferred to the lessor as part of the Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transaction, and (ii) in connection with a Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transaction, the lessor would also have a lien on 15 16 the Borrowers' accounts, proceeds of accounts, lease agreements and lease payments related to such assets (collectively, the "Transferred Assets"). Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' incurrence of Liens on their Transferred Assets in connection with either Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions. 3. Section 10.6 (Limitations on Sale of Assets). Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from conveying, selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of any of their property business or assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein, and therefore prohibits Borrowers from transferring ownership of their assets to a lessor under either an Equipment Sale/Leaseback or the Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' sale of Transferred Assets to a lessor in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions otherwise permitted herein. 4. Section 10.11 (Restrictive Agreements). Section 10.11 of the Credit Agreement prohibits the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from entering into any agreement evidencing indebtedness which contains any negative pledge on assets or covenants more restrictive than those in the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers' execution of the documentation in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions may, due to the inclusion of a negative pledge relating to the Transferred Assets, subject to the applicable transaction, violate Section 10.11 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to any Borrower's grant of a negative pledge on Transferred Assets to a lessor in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions. 12. Consents and Waivers in connection with Securitization Transactions. Borrowers have informed Administrative Agent of their desire to enter into Securitization transactions. In each Securitization, one or more of the Borrowers will sell portions of its/their Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to Securitization Subsidiaries, which will in turn sell such receivables to a Purchaser. A liquidity facility, under which no Borrower is a borrower or guarantor, will be a component of each such Securitization. JLG will provide Administrative Agent with: (i) one week's prior written notice of any Securitization and (ii) within one week after the closing of any Securitization, an opinion of counsel to Borrowers stating that such transaction has closed and that the documentation for such Securitization does not breach the terms of the Credit Agreement. The transaction evidenced by: (i) the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of June 30, 2000 between JLG, The Gradall Company, The Gradall Orville Company and a Securitization Subsidiary, (ii) the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of June 30, 2000 among a Securitization Subsidiary, as the Seller, JLG, as the Servicer, Market Street Funding Corporation, as the Issuer and PNC Bank, National Association, as the Administrator and (iii) the liquidity facility in connection therewith (collectively, the "PNC Securitization"), which documents (other than the liquidity facility, as to which Borrowers represent and warrant herein that they are not a party) have been reviewed by counsel to Administrative Agent, constitutes a Securitization hereunder. The following consents and 16 17 waivers are intended to permit the PNC Securitization referred to above and subsequent Securitizations as and to the extent, and subject to the conditions, set forth below: 1. Securitization Subsidiary. Section 8.12 of the Credit Agreement (Additional Subsidiaries) requires that any new Subsidiary of a Borrower must, inter alia, be joined as a Borrower under the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby waive the requirement that a Securitization Subsidiary join the Credit Agreement as a Borrower. In addition, Lenders hereby waive a Securitization Subsidiary's compliance with the negative covenants found in Article 10 of the Credit Agreement, other than in Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. 2. Section 10.1 (Limitations on Debt). Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring additional Debt except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. A Securitization may contravene Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement, because in connection with the sale of Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to a Purchaser, a Securitization Subsidiary may incur Debt to a Purchaser for payments of the accounts receivable from such accounts. Lenders hereby consent to Debt not exceeding One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) outstanding at any time related to: (i) Securitizations and (ii) other sales or discounts without recourse of accounts receivable permitted by Section 10.6(d) of the Credit Agreement, either singly or in the aggregate (provided, however, that with respect to sales or discounts without recourse of accounts receivable referenced in clause (ii) above, "outstanding" means those sold or discounted accounts receivable which are by their terms not due). 3. Section 10.3 (Limitations on Liens). Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring Liens on any of their assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. A Securitization may contravene Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement because in connection with the sale of the Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets, a Purchaser will file UCC-1 financing statements against the Borrower that sells such Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets. Lenders hereby consent to Purchasers filing UCC-1 financing statements against Borrowers in connection with a Securitization, so long as such UCC-1s cover only those Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets sold to a Purchaser in connection with such Securitization. 4. Section 10.6 (Limitations on Sale of Assets). Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from conveying, selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of any of their property business or assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein, and therefore prohibits Borrowers from selling their accounts receivable to a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' sale of its/their Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization. 5. Section 10.11 (Restrictive Agreements). Section 10.11 prohibits the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from entering into any agreement evidencing indebtedness 17 18 which contains any negative pledge on assets or covenants more restrictive than those in the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers' execution of the documentation in connection with a Securitization may, due to the inclusion of a negative pledge relating to the Receivables, Related Security, Related Assets and Collections, subject to the applicable transaction, violate Section 10.11 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' grant of a negative pledge to a Purchaser on the Receivables, Related Security, Related Assets and Collections sold to such Purchaser in connection with a Securitization. 13. Representations and Warranties. Borrowers hereby represent and warrant to Lenders as follows: 1. Representations. The representations and warranties set forth in Article VI of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, except for any representation or warranty made as of an earlier date, which representation and warranty shall remain true and correct as of such earlier date; there is no Event of Default or Default under the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby; and since July 31, 1999 there has been no material adverse change in the properties, business, operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of JLG or its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 2.

Each Borrower has the power and authority under the laws of its state of incorporation or formation and under its respective articles or certificates of incorporation and bylaws or articles of organization and operating agreement to enter into and perform this Amendment No. 2 and the other documents and agreements required hereunder (collectively, the "Amendment Documents"); all necessary actions (corporate or otherwise) for the execution and performance by each Borrower of the Amendment Documents have been taken; and each of the Amendment Documents and the Credit Agreement, as amended, constitute the valid and binding obligations of Borrowers, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors' rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies. 3. No Violations of Law or Agreements. The execution and performance of the Amendment Documents by Borrowers will not: (i) violate any provisions of any law or regulation, federal, state or local, or the articles or certificates of incorporation or bylaws or articles of organization or operating agreement of any Borrower or (ii) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default or require the obtaining of any consent under, any material agreement or instrument by which any Borrower or its property may be bound. 4. Liquidity Facility. No Borrower is a borrower under or a guarantor for the liquidity facility to be established in connection with the PNC Securitization transaction described in Paragraph 12 above. 18 19 14. Amendment Fee. Borrowers hereby covenant and agree to pay to each Lender who has executed this Amendment No. 2 a fee of five basis points on such Lender's Commitment Percentage under the Credit Agreement. 15.

NO.1 TO AND CONSENT AND WAIVER UNDER C.A. 1 EXHIBIT 4.5 AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AND CONSENT AND WAIVER UNDER CREDIT AGREEMENT THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AND CONSENT AND WAIVER UNDER CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "Amendment No. 1") is made the 30th day of June, 2000, by and among JLG INDUSTRIES, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation ("JLG"), and certain of its subsidiaries listed on Schedule 1 to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) (each, together with JLG, individually a "Borrower" and individually and collectively, the "Borrowers"); the Lenders listed on Schedule 2 to the Credit Agreement; First Union National Bank, as administrative agent ("Administrative Agent"); BankOne, Michigan, as syndication agent ("Syndication Agent") and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as documentation agent ("Documentation Agent"). BACKGROUND Borrowers, Lenders, Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent and Documentation Agent entered into a Credit Agreement dated December 16, 1999 (as so amended hereby and as may be further amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") for use by the Borrowers to support working capital and general corporate purposes. Borrowers have informed Administrative Agent of their desire to enter into certain sale/leaseback and securitization of accounts receivable transactions. Borrowers, Lenders, Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent and Documentation Agent have agreed to make certain amendments to the Credit Agreement and grant certain consents under the Credit Agreement, each as set forth herein and subject to the terms and conditions hereof. In consideration of the foregoing and the premises and the agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound hereby, effective as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the parties hereto agree as follows: 18. Definitions 1. General Rule. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used herein which are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 2. Additional Definitions. The following definitions are hereby added to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement to read in their entirety as follows: "Amendment No. 1" means the Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement by and among Borrowers, Lenders, Administrative 1 2 Agent, Syndication Agent and Documentation Agent, dated June 30, 2000.

"Receivable" has the meaning set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. "Related Assets" has the meaning set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto. "Related Security" has the meaning set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. "Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback" means a lease arrangement whereby Borrower(s) sell a pool of rental equipment to a lessor and lease back such equipment from the lessor. "Securitization" means a financing arrangement, a component of which is a liquidity facility under which no Borrower is a borrower or guarantor, whereby a Borrower or Borrowers sell portions of its/their accounts receivable to a Securitization Subsidiary, in each case without recourse, but subject to certain representation, warranties, covenants and indemnity obligations, which will in turn sell such receivables to a Purchaser, in each case without recourse, but subject to certain representations, warranties, covenants and indemnity obligations. "Securitization Subsidiary" means a bankruptcy-remote direct Subsidiary of JLG formed in connection with a Securitization. 3. Amended Definition. The definition of "Debt" found in Section 2 3 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended so that the word "and" prior to subsection (h) is deleted, and the following subsection (i) is inserted prior to the period at the end of such definition: ", and (i) any amount paid by a Purchaser to a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization" 19. Amended Section 9.1(g) (Limitations on Debt). Section 9.1(g) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended so that the reference to "Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000)" is replaced by "Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)". 20. Amended Section 9.6(d) (Limitations on Sales of Assets). Section 9.6(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below: (d) either: (i) the sale or discount without recourse of accounts receivable which arose in the ordinary course of business or (ii) the sale of Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets in connection with Securitizations, in each case as defined in and to the extent permitted by any consent or waiver by the Required Lenders relating thereto; provided, however, that the aggregate face amount of outstanding accounts receivable sold or discounted under clause (i) above, plus Debt outstanding in connection with Securitizations permitted under clause (ii) above, shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000); provided further, however, that for purposes of clause (i) above (but not clause (ii)), "outstanding" means those sold or discounted accounts receivable which are by their terms not due; 21. Additional Section 10.1(q) (Sale/Leaseback or Securitization Cross-Default). The following new Section 10.1(q) is hereby added to the Credit Agreement to read in its entirety as follows: (q) Sale/Leaseback or Securitization Cross-Default. Any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall (i) default in the payment of any Debt in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback or Securitization transaction beyond the period of grace if any, provided in the instrument or agreement under which such Debt was created or (ii) default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any Debt in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback or Securitization transaction or 3 4 contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, any such Debt to become due prior to its stated maturity (any applicable grace period having expired). 22. Consents and Waivers in connection with Sale/Leaseback Transactions. Borrowers have entered into and/or have informed Administrative Agent of their intent to enter into two types of sale/leaseback transactions. The first type is a lease arrangement whereby the Borrowers sell certain manufacturing and other equipment of the Borrowers to a lessor and lease back such equipment (an "Equipment Sale/Leaseback); the second type is a lease arrangement where the Borrowers will sell a pool of rental equipment to a lessor and lease back such equipment (a "Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback"). The following consents and waivers are intended to permit Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions as and to the extent, and subject to the conditions, set forth below: 1. Section 9.1 (Limitations on Debt). Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement prohibits the Borrowers from incurring additional Debt except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions violate or may violate Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to the Borrowers' incurrence of Debt in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions; provided, however, that: (i) in connection with an Equipment Sale/Leaseback, the transaction is limited to the equipment placed in service not more than six months prior to the effective date of such Equipment Sale/Leaseback; (ii) the amount of Debt outstanding in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback transactions (including without limitation the January 28, 2000 transaction between JLG and SunTrust Leasing Corporation for the sale and leaseback of the Torrid Powder Finishing System located at JLG's paint facility at Shippensburg, Pennsylvania) shall be applied to reduce the 20% of Net Worth basket set forth in Section 9.1(h) of the Credit Agreement; and (iii) the amount of Debt outstanding in connection with Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions, either singly or in the aggregate, shall not exceed 15% of Net Worth of JLG and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (as set forth on the most recently delivered financial statements by Borrowers to the Lenders), and such amount of Debt : (A) shall be equivalent to the sale price to the lessor of such equipment sold, less any lease amortization, in accordance with GAAP and (B) shall not be applied to reduce the 20% of Net Worth basket set forth in Section 9.1(h) of the Credit Agreement. 2. Section 9.3 (Limitations on Liens). Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring Liens on any of their assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions violate or may violate Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement because 4 5 the lessor would have an effective lien on: (i) the Borrowers' assets transferred to the lessor as part of the Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transaction, and (ii) in connection with a Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transaction, the lessor would also have a lien on the Borrowers' accounts, proceeds of accounts, lease agreements and lease payments related to such assets (collectively, the "Transferred Assets"). Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' incurrence of Liens on their Transferred Assets in connection with either Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions. 3. Section 9.6 (Limitations on Sale of Assets). Section 9.6 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from conveying, selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of any of their property business or assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein, and therefore prohibits Borrowers from transferring ownership of their assets to a lessor under either an Equipment Sale/Leaseback or the Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' sale of Transferred Assets to a lessor in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback and Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions otherwise permitted herein. 4. Section 9.11 (Restrictive Agreements). Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement prohibits the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from entering into any agreement evidencing indebtedness which contains any negative pledge on assets or covenants more restrictive than those in the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers' execution of the documentation in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions may, due to the inclusion of a negative pledge relating to the Transferred Assets, subject to the applicable transaction, violate Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to any Borrower's grant of a negative pledge on Transferred Assets to a lessor in connection with Equipment Sale/Leaseback or Rental Fleet Sale/Leaseback transactions. 23. Consents and Waivers in connection with Securitization Transactions. Borrowers have informed Administrative Agent of their desire to enter into Securitization transactions. In each Securitization, one or more of the Borrowers will sell portions of its/their Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to Securitization Subsidiaries, which will in turn sell such receivables to a Purchaser. A liquidity facility, under which no Borrower is a borrower or guarantor, will be a component of each such Securitization. JLG will provide Administrative Agent with: (i) one week's prior written notice of any Securitization and (ii) within one week after the closing of any Securitization, an opinion of counsel to Borrowers stating that such transaction has closed and that the documentation for such Securitization does not breach the terms of the Credit Agreement. The transaction evidenced by: (i) the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of June 30, 2000 between JLG, The Gradall Company, The Gradall Orville Company and a Securitization Subsidiary, (ii) the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of June 30, 2000 among a Securitization Subsidiary, as the Seller, JLG, as the Servicer, Market Street Funding Corporation, as the Issuer and PNC Bank, National Association, as the Administrator and (iii) the liquidity facility in connection therewith (collectively, the "PNC Securitization"), which documents (other than the liquidity facility, as to which Borrowers 5 6 represent and warrant herein that they are not a party) have been reviewed by counsel to Administrative Agent, constitutes a Securitization hereunder. The following consents and waivers are intended to permit the PNC Securitization referred to above and subsequent Securitizations as and to the extent, and subject to the conditions, set forth below: 1. Securitization Subsidiary. Section 7.12 of the Credit Agreement (Additional Subsidiaries) requires that any new Subsidiary of a Borrower must, inter alia, be joined as a Borrower under the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby waive the requirement that a Securitization Subsidiary join the Credit Agreement as a Borrower. In addition, Lenders hereby waive a Securitization Subsidiary's compliance with the negative covenants found in Article 9 of the Credit Agreement, other than in Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. 2. Section 9.1 (Limitations on Debt). Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring additional Debt except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. A Securitization may contravene Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement, because in connection with the sale of Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to a Purchaser, a Securitization Subsidiary may incur Debt to a Purchaser for payments of the accounts receivable from such accounts. Lenders hereby consent to Debt not exceeding One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) outstanding at any time related to: (i) Securitizations and (ii) other sales or discounts without recourse of accounts receivable permitted by Section 9.6(d) of the Credit Agreement, either singly or in the aggregate (provided, however, that with respect to sales or discounts without recourse of accounts receivable referenced in clause (ii) above, "outstanding" means those sold or discounted accounts receivable which are by their terms not due). 3. Section 9.3 (Limitations on Liens). Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers from incurring Liens on any of their assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein. A Securitization may contravene Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement because in connection with the sale of the Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets, a Purchaser will file UCC-1 financing statements against the Borrower that sells such Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets. Lenders hereby consent to Purchasers filing UCC-1 financing statements against Borrowers in connection with a Securitization, so long as such UCC-1s cover only those Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets sold to a Purchaser in connection with such Securitization. 4. Section 9.6 (Limitations on Sale of Assets). Section 9.6 of the Credit Agreement prohibits Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from conveying, selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of any of their property business or assets except to the extent set forth in the exceptions described therein, and therefore prohibits Borrowers from selling their accounts receivable to a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' sale of its/their Receivables, Related Security and Related Assets to a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization. 6 7 5. Section 9.11 (Restrictive Agreements). Section 9.11 prohibits the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries from entering into any agreement evidencing indebtedness which contains any negative pledge on assets or covenants more restrictive than those in the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers' execution of the documentation in connection with a Securitization may, due to the inclusion of a negative pledge relating to the Receivables, Related Security, Related Assets and Collections, subject to the applicable transaction, violate Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement. Lenders hereby consent to Borrowers' grant of a negative pledge to a Purchaser on the Receivables, Related Security, Related Assets and Collections sold to such Purchaser in connection with a Securitization. 24. Representations and Warranties. Borrowers hereby represent and warrant to Lenders as follows: 1. Representations. The representations and warranties set forth in Article VI of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, except for any representation or warranty made as of an earlier date, which representation and warranty shall remain true and correct as of such earlier date; there is no Event of Default or Default under the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby; and since July 31, 1999 there has been no material adverse change in the properties, business, operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of JLG or its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 2. Power and Authority. Each Borrower has the power and authority under the laws of its state of incorporation or formation and under its respective articles or certificates of incorporation and bylaws or articles of organization and operating agreement to enter into and perform this Amendment No. 1 and the other documents and agreements required hereunder (collectively, the "Amendment Documents"); all necessary actions (corporate or otherwise) for the execution and performance by each Borrower of the Amendment Documents have been taken; and each of the Amendment Documents and the Credit Agreement, as amended, constitute the valid and binding obligations of Borrowers, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors' rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies. 3. No Violations of Law or Agreements. The execution and performance of the Amendment Documents by Borrowers will not: (i) violate any provisions of any law or regulation, federal, state or local, or the articles or certificates of incorporation or bylaws or articles of organization or operating agreement of any Borrower or (ii) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default or require the obtaining of any consent under, any material agreement or instrument by which any Borrower or its property may be bound. 4. Liquidity Facility. No Borrower is a borrower under or a guarantor 7 8 for the liquidity facility to be established in connection with the PNC Securitization transaction described in Paragraph 12 above. 1. 25. Amendment Fee. Borrowers hereby covenant and agree to pay to each Lender who has executed this Amendment No. 1 a fee of five basis points on such Lender's Commitment Percentage under the Credit Agreement. 26. Conditions to Effectiveness of Amendment. This Amendment No. 1 shall be effective upon the date of Administrative Agent's receipt of the following documents, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent: 1.

Such additional documents as Lenders may reasonably request. 27. Affirmations. Borrowers hereby: (i) affirm all the provisions of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment No. 1, and (ii) agree that the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as supplemented and amended hereby. 28. Miscellaneous. 8 9 1. Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable fees and expenses (including without limitation reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment No. 1. 2. This Amendment No. 1 shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflicts of law or choice of law principles. 3. This Amendment No. 1 may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 9 10 4. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment No. 1 shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the agreements and documents executed in connection therewith or constitute a waiver of any provision thereof. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Amendment No. 1 the day and year first above written.

All references herein to months are to calendar months unless otherwise expressly indicated. BACKGROUND: The Seller desires to sell, transfer and assign an undivided variable percentage interest in a pool of receivables, and the Issuer desires to acquire such undivided variable percentage interest, as such percentage interest shall be adjusted from time to time based upon, in part, reinvestment payments that are made by the Issuer. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASES SECTION 1.1 Purchase Facility. (a) On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Issuer hereby agrees to purchase, and make reinvestments of, undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller from time to time from the date hereof to the Facility Termination Date. Under no circumstances shall the Issuer make any such purchase or reinvestment if, after giving effect to such purchase or reinvestment, the aggregate outstanding Capital of the Purchased Interest would exceed the Purchase Limit. (b) The Seller may, upon at least 30 days' written notice to the Administrator, terminate the purchase facility provided in this Section in whole or, upon at least 30 days' written notice to the Administrator, from time to time, irrevocably reduce in part the unused portion of the Purchase Limit; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000, or an integral multiple 5 of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and that, unless terminated in whole, the Purchase Limit shall in no event be reduced below $20,000,000. SECTION 1.2 Making Purchases. (a) Each purchase (but not reinvestment) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder shall be made upon the Seller's irrevocable written notice in the form of Annex A delivered to the Administrator in accordance with Section 5.2 (which notice must be received by the Administrator before 11:00 a.m., New York City time) at least two Business Days before the requested purchase date, which notice shall specify: (A) the amount requested to be paid to the Seller (such amount, which shall not be less than $1,000,000 and shall be in integral multiples of $100,000, being the Capital relating to the undivided percentage ownership interest then being purchased), (B) the date of such purchase (which shall be a Business Day), and (C) the pro forma calculation of the Purchased Interest after giving effect to the increase in Capital. (b) On the date of each purchase (but not reinvestment) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder, the Issuer shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Exhibit II, make available to the Seller in same day funds, at PNC Bank, account number 5604147997, ABA # 031100089, an amount equal to the Capital relating to the undivided percentage ownership interest then being purchased. (c) Effective on the date of each purchase pursuant to this Section and each reinvestment pursuant to Section 1.4, the Seller hereby sells and assigns to the Issuer an undivided percentage ownership interest in: (i) each Pool Receivable then existing, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, and (iii) all Collections with respect to, and other proceeds of, such Pool Receivables and Related Security. (d) To secure all of the Seller's obligations (monetary or otherwise) under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, whether now or hereafter existing or arising, due or to become due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, the Seller hereby grants to the Issuer a security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest (including any undivided interest of the Seller) in, to and under all of the following, whether now or hereafter owned, existing or arising: (i) all Pool Receivables, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iii) all Collections with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iv) the Lock-Box Accounts and all amounts on deposit therein, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such Lock-Box Accounts and amounts on deposit therein, (v) all books and records of each Receivable, and all Transaction Documents to which the Seller is a party, together with all rights (but not obligations) of the Seller, (vi) all proceeds of, and all amounts received or receivable under any or all of, the foregoing (collectively, the "Pool Assets"). The Issuer shall have, with respect to the Pool Assets, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Issuer, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC. 2 Receivables Purchase Agreement 6 SECTION 1.3 Purchased Interest Computation. The Purchased Interest shall be initially computed on the date of the initial purchase hereunder. Thereafter, until the Facility Termination Date, the Purchased Interest shall be automatically recomputed (or deemed to be recomputed) on each Business Day other than a Termination Day. The Purchased Interest as computed (or deemed recomputed) as of the day before the Facility Termination Date shall thereafter remain constant. The Purchased Interest shall become zero when the Capital thereof and Discount thereon shall have been paid in full, all the amounts owed by the Seller and the Servicer hereunder to the Issuer, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person are paid in full, and the Servicer shall have received the accrued Servicing Fee thereon. SECTION 1.4 Settlement Procedures. (a) The collection of the Pool Receivables shall be administered by the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement. The Seller shall provide to the Servicer on a timely basis all information needed for such administration, including notice of the occurrence of any Termination Day and current computations of the Purchased Interest. (b) The Servicer shall, on each day on which Collections of Pool Receivables are received (or deemed received) by the Seller or the Servicer: (i) set aside and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator if, at the time of such request, there exists an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event or if the failure to so segregate reasonably could be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect) for the Issuer, out of the Issuer's Share of such Collections, first, an amount equal to the Discount accrued through such day for each Portion of Capital and not previously set aside, second, an amount equal to the fees set forth in the Fee Letter accrued and unpaid through such day, and third, to the extent funds are available therefor, an amount equal to the Issuer's Share of the Servicing Fee accrued through such day and not previously set aside; (ii) subject to Section 1.4(f), if such day is not a Termination Day, remit to the Seller, on behalf of the Issuer, the remainder of the Issuer's Share of such Collections. Such remainder shall be automatically reinvested in Pool Receivables, and in the Related Security, Collections and other proceeds with respect thereto; provided, however, that if the Purchased Interest would exceed 100%, then the Servicer shall not reinvest, but shall set aside and hold in trust for the Issuer (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator if, at the time of such request, there exists an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event or if the failure to so segregate reasonably could be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect) a portion of such Collections that, together with the other Collections set aside pursuant to this paragraph, shall equal the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%; 3 Receivables Purchase Agreement 7 (iii) if such day is a Termination Day, set aside, segregate and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator) for the Issuer the entire remainder of the Issuer's Share of the Collections; provided, that if amounts are set aside and held in trust on any Termination Day of the type described in clause (a) of the definition of "Termination Day" and, thereafter, the conditions set forth in Section 2 of Exhibit II are satisfied or waived by the Administrator, such previously set-aside amounts shall be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) on the day of such subsequent satisfaction or waiver of conditions; and (iv) release to the Seller (subject to Section 1.4(f)) for its own account any Collections in excess of: (x) amounts required to be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) or the proviso to clause (iii) plus (y) the amounts that are required to be set aside pursuant to clause (i), the proviso to clause (ii) and clause (iii) plus (z) the Seller's Share of the Servicing Fee accrued and unpaid through such day and all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Servicer for servicing, collecting and administering the Pool Receivables. (c) The Servicer shall deposit into the Administration Account (or such other account designated by the Administrator), on each Monthly Settlement Date, Collections held for the Issuer pursuant to clause (b)(i) or (f) plus the amount of Collections then held for the Issuer pursuant to clauses (b)(ii) and (iii) of Section 1.4; provided that if JLG or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer, such day is not a Termination Day and the Administrator has not notified JLG (or such Affiliate) that such right is revoked, JLG (or such Affiliate) may retain the portion of the Collections set aside pursuant to clause (b)(i) that represents the Issuer's Share of the Servicing Fee. On the last day of each Settlement Period, the Administrator will notify the Servicer by facsimile of the amount of Discount accrued with respect to each Portion of Capital during such Settlement Period or portion thereof. (d) Upon receipt of funds deposited into the Administration Account pursuant to clause (c), the Administrator shall cause such funds to be distributed as follows: (i) if such distribution occurs on a day that is not a Termination Day and the Purchased Interest does not exceed 100%, first to the Issuer in payment in full of all accrued Discount and fees (other than Servicing Fees) with respect to each Portion of Capital, and second, if the Servicer has set aside amounts in respect of the Servicing Fee pursuant to clause (b)(i) and has not retained such amounts pursuant to clause (c), to the Servicer (payable in arrears on each Monthly Settlement Date) in payment in full of the Issuer's Share of accrued Servicing Fees so set aside, and (ii) if such distribution occurs on a Termination Day or on a day when the Purchased Interest exceeds 100%, first to the Issuer in payment in full of all accrued Discount with respect to each Portion of Capital, second to the Issuer in payment in full of Capital (or, if such day is not 4 Receivables Purchase Agreement 8 a Termination Day, the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%), third, to the Servicer in payment in full of all accrued Servicing Fees, and fourth, if the Capital and accrued Discount with respect to each Portion of Capital have been reduced to zero, and all accrued Servicing Fees payable to the Servicer have been paid in full, to the Issuer, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person in payment in full of any other amounts owed thereto by the Seller hereunder. After the Capital, Discount, fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter and Servicing Fees with respect to the Purchased Interest, and any other amounts payable by the Seller and the Servicer to the Issuer, the Administrator or any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person hereunder, have been paid in full, all additional Collections with respect to the Purchased Interest shall be paid to the Seller for its own account. (e) For the purposes of this Section 1.4: (i) if on any day the Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, discount or other adjustment made by the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, or any setoff or dispute between the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller and an Obligor, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment; (ii) if on any day any of the representations or warranties in Section 1(g) or (n) of Exhibit III is not true with respect to any Pool Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full; (iii) except as provided in clause (i) or (ii), or as otherwise required by applicable law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates in writing its payment for application to specific Receivables; and (iv) if and to the extent the Administrator or the Issuer shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor (or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any Insolvency Proceeding) any amount received by it hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received by the Administrator or the Issuer but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, the Administrator or the Issuer, as the case may be, shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof. 5 Receivables Purchase Agreement 9 (f) If at any time the Seller shall wish to cause the reduction of Capital or a portion thereof (but not to commence the liquidation, or reduction to zero, of the entire Capital of the Purchased Interest), the Seller may do so as follows: (i) the Seller shall give the Administrator and the Servicer written notice in the form of Annex B at least two Business Days' prior to the date of such reduction for any reduction of Capital less than or equal to $25,000,000 and (B) at least five Business Days' prior to the date of such reduction for any reduction of Capital greater than $25,000,000; and (ii) on the proposed date of such reduction, (A) the Seller shall remit to the Administration Account cash and instructions to apply such cash to the reduction of such Capital and Discount to accrue (until such cash can be used to pay Notes) with respect to such Capital, and to pay all costs related to such Capital reduction or, at the election of the Seller, (B) on the proposed date of commencement of such reduction and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall cause Collections with respect to such Portion of Capital not to be reinvested until the amount thereof not so reinvested shall equal the desired amount of reduction and the Servicer shall hold such Collections in trust for the Purchasers, for payment to the Administrator on the last day of the current Settlement Period relating to such Portion of Capital (as specified by the Seller), and the applicable Portion of Capital shall be deemed reduced in the amount to be paid to the Agent only when in fact finally so paid; provided that the amount of any such reduction shall be not less than $1,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $100,000, and the entire Capital of the Purchased Interest after giving effect to such reduction shall be not less than $20,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000. SECTION 1.5 Fees. The Seller shall pay to the Administrator certain fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in a letter, dated the date hereof, among JLG, the Seller and the Administrator (as such letter agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Fee Letter"). SECTION 1.6 Payments and Computations, Etc. (a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder shall be made without reduction for offset or counterclaim and shall be paid or deposited no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the Administration Account. All amounts received after noon (New York City time) will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. (b) The Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, when due hereunder, at an interest rate equal to 2.0% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand. 6 Receivables Purchase Agreement 10 (c) All computations of interest under clause (b) and all computations of Discount, fees and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 (or 365 or 366, as applicable, with respect to Discount or other amounts calculated by reference to the Base Rate) days for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit. SECTION 1.7 Increased Costs. (a) If the Administrator, the Issuer, any Purchaser, any other Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates (each an "Affected Person") reasonably determines that the existence of or compliance with: (i) any law or regulation or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, in each case adopted, issued or occurring after the date hereof, or (ii) any request, guideline or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued or occurring after the date of this Agreement, affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Affected Person, and such Affected Person determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any commitment to make purchases of (or otherwise to maintain the investment in) Pool Receivables related to this Agreement or any related liquidity facility, credit enhancement facility and other commitments of the same type, then, upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Administrator), the Seller shall promptly pay to the Administrator, for the account of such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Affected Person reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of any of such commitments. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If, due to either: (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Person of agreeing to purchase or purchasing, or maintaining the ownership of, the Purchased Interest in respect of which Discount is computed by reference to the Euro-Rate, then, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for such increased costs. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) If such increased costs affect the related Affected Person's portfolio of financing transactions, such Affected Person shall use reasonable averaging and attribution methods to allocate such increased costs to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 7 Receivables Purchase Agreement 11 SECTION 1.8 Requirements of Law. If any Affected Person reasonably determines that the existence of or compliance with: (a) any law or regulation or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, in each case adopted, issued or occurring after the date hereof, or (b) any request, guideline or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued or occurring after the date of this Agreement: (i) does or shall subject such Affected Person to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any increase in the Purchased Interest or in the amount of Capital relating thereto, or does or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to such Affected Person on account of Collections, Discount or any other amounts payable hereunder (excluding taxes imposed on the overall pre-tax net income of such Affected Person, and franchise taxes imposed on such Affected Person, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Affected Person is organized or a political subdivision thereof), (ii) does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, purchases, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Affected Person that are not otherwise included in the determination of the Euro-Rate or the Base Rate hereunder, or (iii) does or shall impose on such Affected Person any other expense or liability, and the result of any of the foregoing is: (A) to increase the cost to such Affected Person of acting as Administrator, or of agreeing to purchase or purchasing or maintaining the ownership of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest (or interests therein) or any Portion of Capital, or (B) to reduce any amount receivable hereunder (whether directly or indirectly), then, in any such case, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person additional amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Person for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable. All such amounts shall be payable as incurred. A certificate from such Affected Person to the Seller and the Administrator certifying, in reasonably specific detail, the basis for, calculation of, and amount of such additional costs or reduced amount receivable shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; provided, however, that no Affected Person shall be required to disclose any confidential or tax planning information in any such certificate. SECTION 1.9 Inability to Determine Euro-Rate. (a) If the Administrator determines before the first day of any Settlement Period (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market generally, deposits in dollars (in the relevant amounts for such Settlement Period) are not being offered to banks in the interbank eurodollar market for such Settlement Period, or adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Euro-Rate for such Settlement Period, then the Administrator shall give notice thereof to the Seller. Thereafter, until the Administrator 8 Receivables Purchase Agreement 12 notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) no Portion of Capital shall be funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate and (b) the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Capital then funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate shall, on the last day of the then current Settlement Period, be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate. (b) If, on or before the first day of any Settlement Period, the Administrator shall have been notified by any Purchaser that, such Purchaser has determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, any enactment, promulgation or adoption of or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Purchaser with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Purchaser to fund or maintain any Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate and based upon the Euro-Rate, the Administrator shall notify the Seller thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, until the Administrator notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply, (a) no Portion of Capital shall be funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate and (b) the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Capital then funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro- Rate shall be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate either (i) on the last day of the then current Settlement Period if such Purchaser may lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate to such day, or (ii) immediately, if such Purchaser may not lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate to such day.

Upon any such declaration, occurrence or deemed occurrence of the Facility Termination Date, the Issuer and the Administrator shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies that they may have under this 9 Receivables Purchase Agreement 13 Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided after default under the New York UCC and under other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. ARTICLE III INDEMNIFICATION SECTION 3.1 Indemnities by the Seller. Without limiting any other rights that the Administrator, the Issuer, any Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, agents, counsel, successors, transferees or assigns (each, an "Indemnified Party") may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all claims, damages, expenses, costs, losses and liabilities (including Attorney Costs) (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (whether directly or indirectly), the use of proceeds of purchases or reinvestments, the ownership of the Purchased Interest, or any interest therein, or in respect of any Receivable, Related Security or Contract, excluding, however: (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party or its officers, directors, agents or counsel, (b) recourse (except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) for Receivables, or (c) any overall net income taxes or franchise taxes imposed on such Indemnified Party by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Indemnified Party is organized or any political subdivision thereof. Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, and subject to the exclusions set forth in the preceding sentence, the Seller shall pay on demand (which demand shall be accompanied by documentation of the Indemnified Amounts, in reasonable detail) to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any of the following: (a) the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Net Receivables Pool Balance as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable, the failure of any information contained in an Information Package to be true and correct, or the failure of any other information provided to the Issuer or the Administrator with respect to Receivables or this Agreement to be true and correct, (b) the failure of any representation, warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Seller (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement to have been true and correct as of the date made or deemed made in all respects when made, (c) the failure by the Seller to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Pool Receivable or the related Contract, or the failure of any Pool Receivable or the related Contract to conform to any such applicable law, rule or regulation, (d) the failure to vest in the Issuer a valid and enforceable: (A) perfected undivided percentage ownership interest, to the extent of the Purchased Interest, in the Receivables in, or purporting 10 Receivables Purchase Agreement 14 to be in, the Receivables Pool and the other Pool Assets, or (B) first priority perfected security interest in the Pool Assets, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, (e) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Receivables in, or purporting to be in, the Receivables Pool and the other Pool Assets, whether at the time of any purchase or reinvestment or at any subsequent time, (f) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable in, or purporting to be in, the Receivables Pool (including a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the goods or services related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such goods or services or relating to collection activities with respect to such Receivable (if such collection activities were performed by the Seller or any of its Affiliates acting as Servicer or by any agent or independent contractor retained by the Seller or any of its Affiliates), (g) any failure of the Seller (or any of its Affiliates acting as the Servicer) to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof or under the Contracts, (h) any products liability or other claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of or in connection with merchandise, insurance or services that are the subject of any Contract, (i) the commingling of Collections at any time with other funds, (j) the use of proceeds of purchases or reinvestments, or (k) any reduction in Capital as a result of the distribution of Collections pursuant to Section 1.4(d), if all or a portion of such distributions shall thereafter be rescinded or otherwise must be returned for any reason. SECTION 3.2 Indemnities by the Servicer. Without limiting any other rights that the Administrator, the Issuer or any other Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts arising out of or resulting from (whether directly or indirectly): (a) the failure of any information contained in an Information Package to be true and correct, or the failure of any other information provided to the Issuer or the Administrator by, or on behalf of, the Servicer to be true and correct, (b) the failure of any representation, warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Servicer (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement to have been true and correct as of the date made or deemed made in all respects when made, (c) the failure by the Servicer to comply with any applicable law, rule or 11 Receivables Purchase Agreement 15 regulation with respect to any Pool Receivable or the related Contract, (d) any dispute, claim, offset or defense of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable in, or purporting to be in, the Receivables Pool resulting from or related to the collection activities with respect to such Receivable, or (e) any failure of the Servicer to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof. ARTICLE IV ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTIONS SECTION 4.1 Appointment of the Servicer. (a) The servicing, administering and collection of the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by the Person so designated from time to time as the Servicer in accordance with this Section. Until the Administrator gives notice to JLG (in accordance with this Section) of the designation of a new Servicer, JLG is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event (but not prior thereto), the Administrator may designate as Servicer any Person (including itself) to succeed JLG or any successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that any such Person so designated shall agree to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof. (b) Upon the designation of a successor Servicer as set forth in clause (a), JLG agrees that it will terminate its activities as Servicer hereunder in a manner that the Administrator determines will facilitate the transition of the performance of such activities to the new Servicer, and JLG shall cooperate with and assist such new Servicer. Such cooperation shall include access to and transfer of related records and use by the new Servicer of all licenses, hardware or software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security. (c) JLG acknowledges that, in making their decision to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Administrator and the Issuer have relied on JLG' agreement to act as Servicer hereunder. Accordingly, JLG agrees that it will not voluntarily resign as Servicer. (d) The Servicer may delegate its duties and obligations hereunder to any subservicer (each a "Sub-Servicer"); provided, that, in each such delegation: (i) such Sub-Servicer shall agree in writing to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the Servicer shall remain primarily liable for the performance of the duties and obligations so delegated, (iii) the Seller, the Administrator and the Issuer shall have the right to look solely to the Servicer for performance, and (iv) the terms of any agreement with any Sub-Servicer shall provide that the Administrator may terminate such agreement upon the termination of the Servicer hereunder by giving notice of its desire to terminate such agreement to the Servicer (and the Servicer shall provide appropriate notice to each such Sub-Servicer); provided, however, that if any such delegation is to any Person other than an Originator, the Administrator shall have consented in writing in advance to such delegation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 12 Receivables Purchase Agreement 16 SECTION 4.2 Duties of the Servicer. (a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or advisable to administer and collect each Pool Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with this Agreement and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policies. The Servicer shall set aside, for the accounts of the Seller and the Issuer, the amount of the Collections to which each is entitled in accordance with Article I. The Servicer may, in accordance with the applicable Credit and Collection Policies, extend the maturity of any Pool Receivable (but not beyond 30 days) and extend the maturity or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Defaulted Receivable as the Servicer may determine to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that: (i) such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Pool Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or a Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Issuer or the Administrator under this Agreement and (ii) if a Termination Event has occurred and JLG or an Affiliate thereof is serving as the Servicer, JLG or such Affiliate may make such extension or adjustment only upon the prior approval of the Administrator. The Seller shall deliver to the Servicer and the Servicer shall hold for the benefit of the Seller and the Administrator (individually and for the benefit of the Issuer), in accordance with their respective interests, all records and documents (including computer tapes or disks) with respect to each Pool Receivable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrator may direct the Servicer (whether the Servicer is JLG or any other Person) to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Pool Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security, provided that no such direction may be given unless a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing. (b) The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following actual receipt of collected funds, turn over to the Seller the collections of any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, less, if JLG or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Servicer of servicing, collecting and administering such collections. The Servicer, if other than JLG or an Affiliate thereof, shall, as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Seller all records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, and copies of records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is a Pool Receivable. (c) The Servicer's obligations hereunder shall terminate on the later of: (i) the Facility Termination Date and (ii) the date on which all amounts required to be paid to the Issuer, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person hereunder shall have been paid in full. After such termination, if JLG or an Affiliate thereof was not the Servicer on the date of such termination, the Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Seller all books, records and related materials that the Seller previously provided to the Servicer, or that have been obtained by the Servicer, in connection with this Agreement. SECTION 4.3 Lock-Box Arrangements. Within 60 days of the initial purchase hereunder, the Seller shall enter into Lock-Box Agreements with all of the Lock-Box Banks and deliver original 13 Receivables Purchase Agreement 17 counterparts thereof to the Administrator. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Administrator may at any time thereafter give notice to each Lock-Box Bank that the Administrator is exercising its rights under the Lock-Box Agreements to do any or all of the following: (a) to have the exclusive ownership and control of the Lock-Box Accounts transferred to the Administrator and to exercise exclusive dominion and control over the funds deposited therein, (b) to have the proceeds that are sent to the respective Lock-Box Accounts redirected pursuant to the Administrator's instructions rather than deposited in the applicable Lock-Box Account, and (c) to take any or all other actions permitted under the applicable Lock-Box Agreement. The Seller hereby agrees that if the Administrator at any time takes any action set forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrator shall have exclusive control of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Pool Receivables and the Seller hereby further agrees to take any other action that the Administrator may reasonably request to transfer such control. Any proceeds of Pool Receivables received by the Seller or the Servicer thereafter shall be sent immediately to the Administrator. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that if at any time the Administrator takes control of any Lock-Box Account, the Administrator shall not have any rights to the funds therein in excess of the unpaid amounts due to the Administrator, the Issuer or any other Person hereunder, and the Administrator shall promptly distribute or cause to be distributed such funds in accordance with Section 4.2(b) and Article I (in each case as if such funds were held by the Servicer thereunder). The Seller hereby agrees to take all actions necessary to ensure that all Lock-Box Accounts are in its name no later than 90 days following the Closing Date. SECTION 4.4 Enforcement Rights. (a) At any time following the occurrence of a Termination Event: (i) the Administrator may direct the Obligors that payment of all amounts payable under any Pool Receivable is to be made directly to the Administrator or its designee, (ii) the Administrator may instruct the Seller or the Servicer to give notice of the Issuer's interest in Pool Receivables to each Obligor, which notice shall direct that payments be made directly to the Administrator or its designee, and the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall give such notice at the expense of the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be; provided that if the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, fails to so notify each Obligor, the Administrator (at the Seller's or the Servicer's, as the case may be, expense) may so notify the Obligors, and (iii) the Administrator may request the Servicer to, and upon such request the Servicer shall: (A) assemble all of the records necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and transfer or license to a successor Servicer the use of all software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and make the same available to the Administrator or its designee at a place selected by the Administrator, and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections in a manner acceptable to the Administrator and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such 14 Receivables Purchase Agreement 18 cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrator or its designee. (b) The Seller hereby authorizes the Administrator, and irrevocably appoints the Administrator as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of the Seller, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to take any and all steps in the name of the Seller and on behalf of the Seller necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Administrator, to collect any and all amounts or portions thereof due under any and all Pool Assets, including endorsing the name of the Seller on checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing such Pool Assets. The Administrator hereby agrees that it shall not exercise such power or authority unless a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, none of the powers conferred upon such attorney-in- fact pursuant to the preceding sentence shall subject such attorney-in-fact to any liability if any action taken by it shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, nor shall they confer any obligations upon such attorney-in-fact in any manner whatsoever. SECTION 4.5 Responsibilities of the Seller. (a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Seller shall: (i) perform all of its obligations, if any, under the Contracts related to the Pool Receivables to the same extent as if interests in such Pool Receivables had not been transferred hereunder, and the exercise by the Administrator or the Issuer of their respective rights hereunder shall not relieve the Seller from such obligations, and (ii) pay when due any taxes, including any sales taxes payable in connection with the Pool Receivables and their creation and satisfaction. The Administrator and the Issuer shall not have any obligation or liability with respect to any Pool Asset, nor shall either of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Seller, JLG or an Originator thereunder. (b) JLG hereby irrevocably agrees that if at any time it shall cease to be the Servicer hereunder, it shall act (if the then-current Servicer so requests) as the data-processing agent of the Servicer and, in such capacity, JLG shall conduct the data-processing functions of the administration of the Receivables and the Collections thereon in substantially the same way that JLG conducted such data- processing functions while it acted as the Servicer. SECTION 4.6 Servicing Fee. (a) Subject to clause (b), the Servicer shall be paid a fee equal to 0.50% per annum (the "Servicing Fee Rate") of the daily average aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Pool Receivables. The Issuer's Share of such fee shall be paid through the distributions contemplated by Section 1.4(d), and the Seller's Share of such fee shall be paid by the Seller on each Monthly Settlement Date. (b) If the Servicer ceases to be JLG or an Affiliate thereof, the servicing fee shall be the greater of: (i) the amount calculated pursuant to clause (a), and (ii) an alternative amount specified by the 15 Receivables Purchase Agreement 19 successor Servicer not to exceed 110% of the aggregate reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such successor Servicer in connection with the performance of its obligations as Servicer. ARTICLE V MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 5.1 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or consent to any departure by the Seller or the Servicer therefrom, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Administrator, and, in the case of any amendment, by the other parties thereto; and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Issuer or the Administrator to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. SECTION 5.2 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (which shall include facsimile communication) and be sent or delivered to each party hereto at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto.

Each assignor may, in connection with the assignment, disclose to the applicable assignee (that shall have agreed to be bound by Section 5.6) any information relating to the Servicer, the Seller or the Pool Receivables furnished to such assignor by or on behalf of the Servicer, the Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator. The Administrator shall give prior written notice of any assignment of the Issuer's rights and obligations (including ownership of the Purchased Interest to any Person other than a Program Support Provider). (b) The Issuer may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a "Purchaser") party to the Liquidity Agreement, or to any other Program Support Provider, participating interests in the Purchased Interest. In the event of any such grant by the Issuer of a participating interest to a Purchaser or other Program Support Provider, the Issuer shall remain responsible for the performance 16 Receivables Purchase Agreement 20 of its obligations hereunder. The Seller agrees that each Purchaser or other Program Support Provider shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 1.7 and 1.8.

(d) Except as provided in Section 4.1(d), none of the Seller, JLG or the Servicer may assign its rights or delegate its obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrator, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (e) Without limiting any other rights that may be available under applicable law, the rights of the Issuer may be enforced through it or by its agents. SECTION 5.4 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. (a) In addition to the rights of indemnification granted under Section 3.1, the Seller agrees to pay on demand (which demand shall be accompanied by documentation thereof in reasonable detail) all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration (including periodic internal audits by the Administrator of Pool Receivables) of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder (and all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with any amendment, waiver or modification of any thereof), including: (i) Attorney Costs for the Administrator, the Issuer and their respective Affiliates and agents with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrator, the Issuer and their respective Affiliates and agents as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and (ii) all reasonable costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs), if any, of the Administrator, the Issuer and their respective Affiliates and successors and permitted assigns in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, that the Seller shall not be responsible for such preparation, execution, delivery and administration costs and expenses (including the Attorney Costs) of the parties who become "Purchasers" under the Liquidity Agreement if the Purchase Limit does not exceed $65,000,000. (b) In addition, the Seller shall pay on demand any and all stamp and other taxes and fees payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other documents or agreements to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to save each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees.

Accordingly, your participation will be evidenced by a separate award letter pursuant to the terms of the MIP. The final amount awarded each year will be determined by the Company's Compensation Committee typically based upon a percentage of your base salary, multiplied by factors determined by reference to the level of achievement of your personal performance objective(s), and the applicable Company performance modifier for the year, with the resulting amount subject to reduction based on other subjective criteria at the discretion of the Committee. 1 2 For fiscal 2001, your award, before exercise of the Committee's discretion, will range from $0 to $405,000 based upon 60% times your prorated (11 months) base salary for the year, multiplied by a percentage of up to 150% based upon achievement of your personal performance objective(s) and by a percentage ranging up to 175% for "distinguished" Company performance based on a matrix of fully diluted earnings per share and free cash flow outcomes for fiscal 2001. Stock Options: On the Commencement Date, you will receive stock options to purchase 43,500 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Subject to your continued employment with the Company, they will vest in three equal installments on the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the Commencement Date. The options will be granted pursuant to the Stock Plan and will be evidenced a stock option agreement entered into pursuant to the Stock Plan. The exercise price of the options will be the mean average of the high and low prices at which the Company's shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on the trading day immediately preceding the Commencement Date. Unexercised options, including any unvested options, will cease to be exercisable on the tenth anniversary of the Commencement Date. Change in Control: All options and Restricted Shares will vest and become fully exercisable immediately upon a "Change in Control" as defined in the Stock Plan. Other Benefit Plans: You will be eligible for the standard retirement and other benefit programs provided for officers of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, these benefits include: (i) participation in the Company's 401(k) plan which currently provides for Company matching of 50% of the first 5% of Eligible Compensation contributed to the plan and a discretionary profit sharing contribution by the Company which typically has been approximately 5% of Eligible Compensation not in excess of the Social Security wage base plus 10% of Eligible Compensation in excess of the Social Security wage base, (ii) participation in the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") which, for Senior Vice Presidents at full vesting after five years of service currently provides a retirement benefit of 55% of the average highest two-year salary plus MIP award reduced principally by (a) all defined benefit or cash balance plan amounts received from JLG contributions or from other employers, (b) all other defined contribution balances received from JLG contributions or other employers, and (c) 50% of 2 3 social security benefits (SERP benefits vest 25% per year commencing with the second anniversary of the Commencement Date until fully vested), (iii) participation in the Company's Executive Deferred Compensation Plan which permits participants to elect to defer receipt of a portion of salary and MIP award and to direct the investment of deferred amounts among the investment options available under the Company's 401(k) plan, (iv) participation in the Company's medical insurance plan and supplemental executive medical benefit program, (v) term life insurance which currently provides a death benefit equal to two times annual base salary, and (vi) four weeks of paid vacation per year (not including public or Company holidays). In addition, the Company will reimburse you for the reasonable, annual cost of tax preparation and, to facilitate appropriate business entertainment, during the term of your employment, the Company will pay reasonable membership initiation fees and annual dues for your admission as a member of a country club located within a 50 mile radius of the Company's headquarters. Transition Benefits: In accordance with the Company's relocation policy, the Company will reimburse you for all reasonable and necessary expenses that you incur in connection with your relocation within 12 months following the Commencement Date from your current principal residence to a new principal residence within a 50 mile radius of the Company's headquarters, including associated commuting expense and temporary living arrangements prior to relocation of your principal residence. Separation: Your employment will be "at will". Either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time for any reason. Promptly upon termination of your employment, you will return to the Company all documents, papers, materials and other property of the Company relating to its affairs or containing proprietary information of the Company that are then in your possession or under your control. Pursuant to a separate agreement, you shall be entitled to severance benefits under the Company's Executive Severance Plan, as and to the extent your employment is terminated during the first 2 years of employment, which currently provides for any "Dismissed" participant a "Severance Benefit" equal to an "Applicable Percentage" of then current base salary plus MIP awards for the 12 months preceding the termination date. In the case of termination due to a "Change in Control" the MIP award is deemed to be the then current year "target" award. Your "Applicable Percentage" will be 100%. 3 4 Confidentiality: You agree not to disclose to anyone (except to the extent reasonably necessary for you to perform your duties) any confidential or proprietary materials, documents, records or other confidential or proprietary information concerning the business or affairs of the Company or any affiliates thereof which you may have acquired in the course of or as an incident to your employment with the Company or any affiliates thereof. You represent and warrant that there are no contractual impediments which restrict your acceptance of this employment and that you will not bring to your employment or use in connection with such employment any confidential or proprietary information that you used or had access to by reason of any previous employment that is the property of any previous employer. Non-Compete: During the term of your employment with the Company and for a period of two years thereafter, you will not, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company, directly or indirectly engage in or assist any activity which is competitive with the business of the Company (other than on behalf of the Company) including, without limitation, whether such engagement or assistance is an officer, director, employee, partner or investor (other than as a holder of less than 5% of the outstanding capital stock of a publicly traded corporation), anywhere in the world that the Company has been engaged. For a period of two years after the termination of your employment, you will not solicit for employment any employees of the Company. You agree that if the scope of these obligations are determined to exceed that which may be enforceable under applicable law, the scope of these obligations shall be reformed to provide for enforcement to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law. Intellectual Property Rights: You agree that any developments by way of invention, design, copyright, trademark or other matters which may be developed or perfected by you during the term of your employment, and which relate to the business of the Company, shall be the property of the Company without any interest therein by you, and you will, at the request and expense of the Company, apply for and prosecute letters patent thereon in the United States or in foreign countries if the Company so requests, and will assign and transfer the same to the Company together with any letters patent, copyrights, trademarks and applications therefor; provided, however, that that foregoing shall not 4 5 apply to an invention that you develop entirely on your own time without using the Company's equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information. Assignment; Successors: This letter agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of others, assign or transfer this letter agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, provided that, in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company with or to any other individual or entity, this letter agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and all references herein to the "Company" shall refer to such successor.

EX-99 11 j8416801ex99.txt CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS 1 Exhibit 99 CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS PURSUANT TO THE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 The Company wishes to inform its investors of the following important factors that in some cases have affected, and in the future could affect, the Company's results of operations and that could cause such future results of operations to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Disclosure of these factors is intended to permit the Company to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Many of these factors have been discussed in prior SEC filings by the Company. Though the Company has attempted to list comprehensively these important cautionary factors, the Company wishes to caution investors that other factors may in the future prove to be important in affecting the Company's results of operations. Demand Variability - Demand for new equipment manufactured by the Company tends to be cyclical, responding historically to varying levels of construction and industrial activity, principally in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in other industrialized nations. Other factors affecting demand include the availability and cost of financing for equipment purchases, the market availability of used equipment and alternatives to purchases such as equipment leases directly from the Company. Company management regularly monitors these and other factors that affect demand for the Company's equipment. However, predicting levels of demand beyond a short term is necessarily imprecise and demand may at times change dramatically. Consolidating Customers Base; Rental Companies - The principal customers for the Company's new equipment are independent equipment rental companies that rent the Company's products and provide service support to equipment users. In recent years, growth in sales to equipment rental companies has outpaced growth in direct sales to end-users, resulting in equipment rental companies comprising a larger share of total sales. At the same time, there has been substantial consolidation in ownership among rental companies, resulting in a more limited number of major customers comprising a substantial portion of total sales. A change in purchasing decisions or ordering patterns by any of these major customers could materially affect overall demand for the Company's products and the Company's financial performance. More generally, during recessionary conditions, demand for equipment by equipment rental companies typically declines more sharply than demand for equipment purchased by end-users. The Company believes it is a preferred supplier to certain equipment rental companies whose continued business depends upon a package of products and services including financing, e-commerce ordering, just-in-time delivery, enhanced warranties, used equipment trade-ins and other customer services and after market support. Competition; Continued Innovation - The Company faces substantial competition in the market for its products. Product line expansion by existing competitors and potential entry by new competitors also may affect the Company's market position. Throughout its history, the Company has devoted substantial resources to product development and has generally succeeded in being a market leader in introducing new products or incorporating new features and functions into existing products. Successful product innovation by competitors that reach the market prior to comparable innovation by the Company or that are amenable to patent protection may adversely affect the Company's financial performance. Product Liability - Use of the Company's products involves risks of personal injury and property damage and liability exposure for the Company. The Company insures against this liability through a combination of a self-insurance retention and catastrophic insurance coverage in excess of the retention. The Company monitors all incidents of which it becomes aware involving the use of its products that result in personal injury or property damage and establishes accrued liability reserves on its financial statements based on liability estimates with respect to claims arising from such incidents. Future or unreported incidents involving personal injury or property damage or unanticipated variances between actual liabilities for known incidents and Company estimates may adversely affect the Company's financial performance. 1 2 Manufacturing Capacity; Production Levels - Given the variability of demand, the Company must periodically expand and contract its manufacturing facilities. Capital investment to acquire additional manufacturing facilities involves significant risks. Excess manufacturing capacity adversely affects profitability because higher fixed costs are spread over a lower sales volume. Insufficient capacity adversely affects profitability as long lead-times required to fill customer orders may impair the Company's ability to compete for new business and subcontracting costs incurred to increase capacity affect profitability. To ensure product availability, the Company sometimes manages inventory levels and its supply chain by maintaining relatively constant production levels. This practice could increase inventories and associated carrying costs which could adversely affect the Company's financial performance. Availability of Product Components - The Company obtains raw materials and certain manufactured components from third-party suppliers. To reduce material costs and inventories, the Company relies on supplier partnership arrangements with preferred vendors as a sole source for "just-in-time" delivery of many raw materials and manufactured components. Because the Company maintains limited raw material inventories, even brief unanticipated delays in delivery by suppliers, including those due to capacity constraints, labor disputes, impaired financial condition of suppliers, weather emergencies or other natural disasters, may adversely affect the Company's ability to satisfy its customers on a timely basis and thereby affect the Company's financial performance. Foreign Sales; Currency Risks - A growing component of the Company's business has been export sales to Europe, Australia, Latin America, Africa and Asia. Maintenance and continued growth of this segment of the Company's business may be affected by changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies, laws and regulations of the United States and other trading nations and by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and the ability or inability of the Company to hedge against exchange rate risks. Mergers and Acquisitions - The Company intends to pursue strategic acquisitions as a means of increasing sales and earnings and promoting shareholder value. Acquisitions generally may involve a number of risks that may affect the Company's financial performance including increased leverage, diversion of management resources, possible shareholder dilution, assumption of liabilities of acquired businesses and corporate culture conflicts. In addition, specific acquisitions may involve other risks unique to the acquired business. Finally, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to conclude satisfactory agreements to acquire any businesses as a means to increase sales and earnings. Unanticipated Litigation - The Company occasionally has faced unanticipated intellectual property and shareholder litigation which has involved significant unbudgeted expenditures. The costs and other effects of any future, unanticipated legal or administrative proceedings may be significant. Dependence Upon Key Personnel; Management Recruitment - The Company believes that it has developed a strong management team, which intends to continue the Company's growth and profitability. However, the loss or unavailability of certain key management personnel and the inability to attract, assimilate or retain additional highly qualified employees in the future could adversely affect the Company's business and prospects. 2
