On March 3, 2010, Oshkosh Corporation (the “Company”) completed its private offering of $250 million aggregate principal amount of its 8¼% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”) and $250 million aggregate principal amount of its 8½% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes” and, together with the 2017 Notes, the “Notes”) in accordance with Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).  The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated March 3, 2010, among the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee.  The material terms of the Indenture are described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on March 1, 2010, which description is incorporated by reference herein.  Such description of the Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On March 3, 2010, the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and Banc of America Securities LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers named therein, entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed (i) to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate an exchange offer within 366 days after the issuance of the Notes, or (2) if required, to have a shelf registration statement declared effective with respect to resales of the Notes.  The material terms of the Registration Rights Agreement are described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on March 1, 2010, which description is incorporated by reference herein.  Such description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

The Company received approximately $489.5 million in proceeds from the sale of the Notes, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses of the offering.  The Company used the entire net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay a portion of the debt currently outstanding under term loan B under the Company’s senior secured credit facility.
