Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 21, 2006, JLG Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and Oshkosh Truck Corporation (“Oshkosh”) issued a joint press release announcing the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, in connection with the proposed merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oshkosh with JLG.
The expiration of the Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period satisfies one of the conditions to Oshkosh’s acquisition of the Company. Consummation of the merger, which is expected to occur in early December, remains subject to other customary closing conditions, including approval of the merger by the Company’s shareholders.
A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is hereby incorporated by reference.
