Item 5.02. | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
At the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Oshkosh Corporation (the “Company”) held on May 7, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the Oshkosh Corporation 2024 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (the “Plan”), which had previously been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to shareholder approval. Additional information regarding the results of the Annual Meeting is set forth below under Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Plan provides that up to a total of 2,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued thereunder. The Plan authorizes the grant to the Company’s officers, directors, eligible employees and consultants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, shares of common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units and annual or long-term incentive awards.
The Company cannot currently determine the benefits, if any, to be paid under the Plan in the future to the officers of the Company, including the Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer and named executive officers.
The Plan is described in detail in the Company’s proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2024, and the full text of the Plan appears as Exhibit A to the definitive proxy statement. The description of the Plan set forth above does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such materials.

The Company's definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting also included a shareholder proposal (Proposal 5) on the subject of majority voting for directors. This proposal, however, was not acted upon at the Annual Meeting because neither the proponent nor a qualified representative of the proponent presented the proposal at the Annual Meeting. Although this proposal was not acted upon at the Annual Meeting, proxies that shareholders submitted prior to the meeting included instructions to vote more shares against the proposal than for the proposal.
