Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On June 29, 2020, Oshkosh Corporation (the "Company") committed to a series of restructuring activities within its Access Equipment segment. On that day, the Company announced that it would close its Medias, Romania manufacturing facility. The Company intends to relocate production to factories in the United States, Mexico and China. The Company also announced that it would close its service center in Riverside, CA. Both facilities are being closed to simplify and better align operations to support customers and enable sustainable growth. The Company intends to cease all operations in Medias by June 30, 2021 and Riverside by September 30, 2020. In addition, the Access Equipment segment initiated targeted reductions in its salaried workforce in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Under these plans, the Company expects to incur cash charges related to severance costs and other employment-related benefits of approximately $8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, accelerate depreciation of assets with a net book value of approximately $5 million and incur approximately $1 million of other costs.

Total charges resulting from these actions of $10 million in fiscal 2020 and $4 million in fiscal 2021 are preliminary and the Company expects to finalize the amounts of the charges resulting from these actions in the next several weeks, so actual amounts may be slightly different.
