PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2022 Annual Meeting OF STOCKHOLDERS
March 3, 2022

We have sent you this Proxy Statement and the enclosed Proxy Card because the Board of Directors (the "Board") of REV Group, Inc. (referred to herein as the "Company," "REV," "we," "us" or "our") is soliciting your proxy to vote at our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on March 3, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. local time, at 2300 N. Mayfair Rd., Wauwatosa, WI 53226.

· This Proxy Statement summarizes information about the proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting and other information you may find useful in determining how to vote.
· The Proxy Card is the means by which you actually authorize another person to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions.

In addition to solicitations by mail, our directors, officers and employees, without additional remuneration, may solicit proxies by telephone, e-mail and personal interviews. All costs of solicitation of proxies will be borne by us. Brokers, custodians and fiduciaries will be requested to forward proxy soliciting material to the owners of stock held in their names, and we will reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of proxy materials.

Pursuant to the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have elected to provide access to our Annual Meeting materials, which include this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021 (the "Form 10-K"), over the internet in lieu of mailing printed copies. We will begin mailing the Notice of Internet Availability to our stockholders of record as of January 10, 2022 (the "Record Date") for the first time on or about January 21, 2022. The Notice of Internet Availability will contain instructions on how to access and review the Annual Meeting materials and will also contain instructions on how to request a printed copy of the Annual Meeting materials. In addition, we have provided brokers, dealers, banks, voting trustees and their nominees, at our expense, with additional copies of our proxy materials and the Form 10-K so that our record holders can supply these materials to the beneficial owners of shares of our common stock as of the Record Date. The Form 10-K is also available in the "Investors" section of our website at investors.revgroup.com.

Information About the Proxy Process and Voting

Why am I receiving these materials?

We have made this Proxy Statement and Proxy Card available to you on the internet or have delivered printed proxy materials to you, because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting, including at any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting. You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. However, you do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares. Instead, you may simply complete, sign and return the Proxy Card, or follow the instructions below to submit your proxy over the telephone or on the internet.

This Proxy Statement, the Notice of Internet Availability, the Notice of Annual Meeting and the accompanying Proxy Card were first made available for access by our stockholders on or about January 21, 2022 to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

The only outstanding voting securities of REV are shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "common stock"), of which there were 63,474,523 shares outstanding as of January 10, 2022. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Alternatively, you may vote by proxy by using the accompanying Proxy Card, over the internet or by telephone. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. Even if you have submitted a proxy before the Annual Meeting, you may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. In such case, your previously submitted proxy will be disregarded.

· To vote in person, come to the Annual Meeting and we will give you a ballot when you arrive.
· To vote using the Proxy Card, simply complete, sign and date the accompanying Proxy Card and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If you return your signed Proxy Card to us before the Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares in accordance with the Proxy Card.
· To vote by proxy over the internet, follow the instructions provided on the Notice of Internet Availability.
· To vote by telephone, you may vote by proxy by calling the toll-free number found on the Notice of Internet Availability.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Agent

If, on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account.

If you are a beneficial owner as described above, you should have received a voting instruction form with these proxy materials from the brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization that holds your shares, rather than from us. Simply complete the voting instruction form to ensure that your vote is counted. To vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank, dealer or other agent and follow the accompanying instructions included with these proxy materials.

We provide internet proxy voting to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. However, please be aware that you must bear any

2

costs associated with your internet access, such as usage charges from internet access providers and telephone companies.

How do I vote?

· For Proposal No. 1, you may either vote "For" or "Against" one or more of the Class II nominees to the Board or abstain from voting. A nominee will be elected as a director if he receives a majority of votes cast (that is, the number of votes cast "for" a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that nominee).
· For Proposal No. 2, you may either vote "For" or "Against" or abstain from voting.
· For Proposal No. 3, you may either vote "For" or "Against" or abstain from voting.

Please note that by casting your vote by proxy you are authorizing the individuals listed on the Proxy Card to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions and in their discretion with respect to any other matter that properly comes before the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the Inspector of Election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count:

· For Proposal No. 1, votes "For" and "Against," abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal No. 1.
· For Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3, votes "For" and "Against," abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions will have no effect on Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3. On all proposals other than Proposal No. 2 where brokers can cast discretionary votes, broker non-votes with respect to a proposal will have no effect on the outcome of the matter.

What are "broker non-votes"?

If your shares are held by your broker as your nominee (that is, in "street name"), you will need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds your shares and follow the instructions included on that form regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares. If you do not give instructions to your broker, your broker can vote your shares with respect to "routine" items, but not with respect to "non-routine" items. See below for more information regarding: "Which ballot measures are considered "routine" or "non-routine"?"

Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed "non-routine." Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker or nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be "routine," but not with respect to "non-routine" matters. In the event that a broker, bank, custodian, nominee or other record holder of common stock does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a particular proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to that proposal. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a broker or bank, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your vote is counted on each of the proposals.

Which ballot measures are considered "routine" or "non-routine?"

Proposal No. 1 and Proposal No. 3 are considered "non-routine" under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore there will be broker non-votes on Proposal No. 1 and Proposal No. 3.

Proposal No. 2, the ratification of the appointment of RSM US LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2022, is considered "routine" under applicable rules. A broker

3

or other nominee may generally vote on routine matters, and therefore no broker non-votes are expected to exist in connection with Proposal No. 2.

How many votes are needed to approve the proposal?

With respect to Proposal No. 1, directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast. This means that each of the three individuals nominated for election to the Board will be elected as a director if he receives a majority of votes cast (that is, the number of votes cast "for" a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that nominee). Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require any incumbent director who fails to receive the required number of votes for re-election to promptly tender his or her resignation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Directors will make a recommendation to the Board on whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action should be taken. Taking into account the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board will determine whether to accept or reject any such resignation, or what other action should be taken within 90 days from the certification of election results.

With respect to Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3, the affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast affirmatively or negatively is required for approval.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of the Record Date.

What if I return a Proxy Card but do not make specific choices?

If we receive a signed and dated Proxy Card and the Proxy Card does not specify how your shares are to be voted, your shares will be voted "For" the election of each of the three nominees for director, "For" the ratification of the appointment of RSM US LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, and "For" the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy (one of the individuals named on your Proxy Card) will vote your shares in his or her discretion.

What does it mean if I receive more than one set of materials?

If you receive more than one set of materials, your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. In order to vote all the shares you own, you must either sign and return all of the Proxy Cards or follow the instructions for any alternative voting procedure on each of the Proxy Cards.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

· You may submit another properly completed proxy with a later date.
· You may send a written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Stephen W. Boettinger, Secretary of the Board at 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005.
· You may attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held by your broker, bank or other agent, you should follow the instructions provided by them.

When are stockholder proposals due for next year's Annual Meeting?

To be considered for inclusion in next year's proxy materials, your proposal must be submitted in writing by September 23, 2022 to Stephen W. Boettinger, Secretary of the Board at 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005. Pursuant to our amended and restated bylaws, in order for a stockholder to present a proposal at the annual meeting, other than proposals to be included in the proxy statement as described above, you

4

must give timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Board, which must be received between November 3, 2022 and December 3, 2022; provided that if the date of that annual meeting is more than 30 days before or after March 3, 2023, notice must be received not earlier than the 120th day prior to the annual meeting date and not later than the later of the 70th day prior to the annual meeting date or the 10th day following the day on which public disclosure of the 2023 annual meeting date is first made by us. You are also advised to review our amended and restated bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote are present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for quorum purposes. If there is no quorum, either the chair of the Annual Meeting or a majority in voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, may adjourn the Annual Meeting to another time or place.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Voting results will be announced by the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are unavailable at that time, we will file an amended Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the day the final results are available.

Directions to Annual Meeting

Directions to our Annual Meeting, to be held at 2300 N. Mayfair Rd., Wauwatosa, WI 53226, are available at www.revgroup.com.

Proposal No. 1
Election of Directors

The Company's Board is presently composed of nine members, who are divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. One class of directors is elected by the stockholders at each annual meeting to serve a three-year term. Class I directors are Jean Marie Canan, Charles Dutil and Donn Viola; Class II directors are Justin Fish, Joel Rotroff and Rodney Rushing; and Class III directors are Paul Bamatter, Dino Cusumano and Randall Swift.

Class II directors standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting are Justin Fish, Joel Rotroff and Rodney Rushing. Class III and Class I directors will stand for election at the 2023 and 2024 annual meetings of stockholders, respectively.

Each of the nominees for election to Class II is currently a director of the Company. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of the nominees for election as Class II directors would serve for three years and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. If any nominee is unable or unwilling to be a candidate for election, the Board may appoint another nominee or reduce the size of the Board.

The following table sets forth information for the nominees who are currently standing for election:

Proposal No. 2
Ratification of Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee of our Board has engaged RSM US LLP ("RSM"), as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2022 ("fiscal year 2022"), and is seeking ratification of such selection by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting. RSM has audited our financial statements for each of our fiscal years since 2006. Representatives of RSM are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither our amended and restated bylaws nor other governing documents or applicable law require stockholder ratification of the selection of RSM as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the audit committee is submitting the selection of RSM to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the audit committee will reconsider whether or not to retain RSM. Even if the selection is ratified, the audit committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table provides information regarding the fees incurred to RSM during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 ("fiscal year 2021") and October 31, 2020 ("fiscal year 2020"). The audit committee approved all of the fees described below.

Fiscal Year Ended
October 31, 2021 October 31, 2020
(in thousands)
Audit Fees(1) $ 1,982 $ 2,146
Tax Fees 14 7
Audit-Related Fees (2) 96 -
All Other Fees - -
Total Fees $ 2,092 $ 2,153
____________
(1) Audit fees of RSM for fiscal years 2021 and 2020 were for professional services rendered for the audits of our annual financial statements, including accounting consultations related to business combinations and divestitures and reviews of quarterly financial statements. Fees in 2021 and 2020 include the audit of internal control over financial reporting and fees for professional services rendered in connection with a statutory audit.
(2) Audit related fees pertain to prospectus and registration statement on Form S-3, including procedures to issue consent letters and comfort letters with the marketed offering.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The audit committee or a delegate of the audit committee, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, pre-approves, or provides pursuant to pre-approvals policies and procedures for the pre-approval of, all non-audit services provided by its independent registered public accounting firm. This policy is set forth in the charter of the audit committee and is available at www.revgroup.com.

The audit committee approved all of the audit, audit-related, tax and other services provided by RSM since our initial public offering (the "IPO") in January 2017 and the estimated costs of those services. Actual amounts billed, to the extent in excess of the estimated amounts, are periodically reviewed and approved by the audit committee.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

Proposal No. 3
Advisory Vote On the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers

Our stockholders have the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers.

As described in detail under "Executive Compensation-Compensation Discussion and Analysis," our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, retain and motivate our named executive officers, who are critical to our success. Please read "Executive Compensation-Compensation Discussion and Analysis" in this proxy statement for additional details about our executive compensation programs.

As required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a "say-on-pay" proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and our compensation philosophy, policies and practices for named executive officers described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we will ask our stockholders to vote "FOR" the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

"RESOLVED, that the Company's stockholders approve, by a non-binding advisory vote, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and narrative discussion."

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Board or the compensation committee. However, the Board and the compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders and intend to consider our stockholders' views regarding our executive compensation programs.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board is currently composed of nine directors. The number of directors is fixed by our Board, subject to the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide for a classified Board consisting of three classes of directors, each serving staggered three-year terms as follows:

(1) Our Class I directors are Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2024.

(2) Our Class II directors are Messrs. Fish, Rotroff and Rushing, and they are nominated for re-election at the Annual Meeting.

(3) Our Class III directors are Messrs. Bamatter, Cusumano and Swift, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2023.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, upon the expiration of the term of a class of directors, the successor to each such director in the class will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following his or her election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of our directors.

Independence

The Board has affirmatively determined that all of our directors except Mr. Rushing meet the definition of "independent director" under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board has three standing committees: the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee. The charter of each committee is available on our website at www.revgroup.com.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee is composed of Messrs. Canan, Dutil and Viola, with Mr. Canan serving as chairman of the committee. Our Board has determined that each member of the audit committee meets the independence requirements under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE and all members of the audit committee meet the financial literacy requirements under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board is currently responsible for overseeing our risk management process. The Board focuses on our general risk management strategy and the most significant risks facing us and ensures that appropriate risk mitigation strategies are implemented by management. The Board is also apprised of particular risk management matters in connection with its general oversight and approval of corporate matters and significant transactions.

In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures and our Compensation Committee has taken to assess and monitor whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage unnecessary risk-taking. In addition, our Audit Committee oversees any related person transactions.

We currently separate the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. The Board believes that such structure is in the best interest of the Company at this time, as it allows for a more effective monitoring and objective evaluation of the performance of management. The Chairman of the Board also acts as the presiding director during executive sessions of non-management directors.

Mr. Bamatter currently serves as the Company's independent chair. Mr. Canan previously served as the Lead Independent Director until June 15, 2021, when AIP ceased to beneficially own a majority of the Company's common stock. During the time that Mr. Canan served as lead independent director, and currently alongside Mr. Bamatter, Mr. Canan assists the Chair in managing the governance of the Board and acts as a liaison between the

12

Chair and other directors. Similar to during the time he served as lead independent director, Mr. Canan may also: (i) preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Chair is not present, including all executive sessions of the independent directors; (ii) have the authority to call meetings of the independent directors; (iii) serve as a contact for interested parties who wish to communicate with independent directors; (iv) provide the Chair with feedback and counsel concerning the Chair's interaction with the Board and management; (v) work with the Chair to develop Board meeting agendas and meeting schedules; and (vi) periodically meet individually with independent directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer to discuss Board and Committee performance, effectiveness and composition; and (vii) provide leadership to the Board if circumstances arise in which the role of the Chair may be, or may be perceived to be, in conflict.

A Lead Independent Director will be elected by a majority vote of the independent directors when the Chair is not independent.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct

We have adopted corporate governance guidelines and a code of conduct that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. Our corporate governance guidelines and code of conduct are available on our website. We intend to disclose any amendments to such documents, or any waivers of their requirements, on our website at www.revgroup.com.

Hedging and Pledging Policy

Without the consent of our Board, we prohibit all our directors, our executive officers and our employees from engaging in short sales of our securities; transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts and calls, and other derivative securities with respect to our securities; and hedging or monetization transactions, including through the use of financial instruments such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, designed to decrease the risks of ownership of our securities. Our executive officers and directors are also prohibited from pledging any of our securities that they hold directly or have received as equity compensation.

Meetings of the Board, Board and Committee Member Attendance and Annual Meeting Attendance

Our Board met five times during fiscal year 2021. The audit committee met five times, the compensation committee met five times and the nominating and corporate governance committee met four times. During fiscal year 2021, each Board member attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and of the committees of the Board on which he served. We encourage all of our directors and nominees for director to attend our annual meeting of stockholders; however, attendance is not mandatory. Each then-current Board member attended the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders.

Stockholder Communications with the Board; Stockholder Recommendations

Should stockholders or other interested parties wish to communicate with the Board, non-management directors as a group or any specified individual directors, such correspondence should be sent to the attention of Stephen W. Boettinger, Secretary of the Board at 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005. The Secretary of the Board will forward correspondence relating to a director's duties or responsibilities to the specified recipient. Correspondence that is unrelated to a director's duties and responsibilities may be discarded or otherwise addressed by the Secretary.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider persons recommended by stockholders to become director nominees for election in accordance with the criteria described below. Recommendations for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should be sent to the Secretary of the Company in writing together with appropriate biographical information concerning each proposed nominee.

Director Nomination Considerations

In making recommendations to the Company's Board of nominees to serve as Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will examine each Director nominee on a case-by-case basis regardless of who recommended the nominee and take into account all factors it considers appropriate, including strength of character,

13

mature judgment, career specialization, relevant technical skills or financial acumen, industry knowledge and experience, and diversity (including age, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, physical ability, ethnicity, background and perspective). Consistent with this philosophy, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is committed to including in each search candidates who reflect diverse backgrounds, including, but not limited to, diversity of gender and race, and will direct search firms to include women and minority candidates in recommended pools as well.

The Board believes the following minimum qualifications must be met by a Director nominee to be recommended by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee:

· Each Director must display, and have a reputation for, high personal and professional ethics, integrity and values.
· Each Director must have demonstrated sound business judgment.
· Each Director must be accomplished in his or her respective field as an active or former executive officer of a public or private organization, with broad experience at the administrative and/or policy making level in business, government, education, technology or public interest.
· Each Director must have relevant expertise and experience, and be able to offer advice and guidance based on that expertise and experience.
· Each Director must be independent of any particular constituency, be able to represent all shareholders of the Company and be committed to enhancing long-term shareholder value.
· Each Director must have sufficient time available to devote to activities of the Board of Directors and to developing a complete understanding of the Company's business and markets.

The Board also believes Directors should be selected so the Board is balanced with each Director contributing talents, skills, and experiences that the Board needs as a team, supplementing existing resources and providing talent for future needs so that the Board is a diverse body.

14

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, during our last fiscal year, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

· the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and
· any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our common stock, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Other than as described below, there have not been, nor are there any currently proposed, transactions or series of similar transactions meeting this criteria to which we have been or will be a party other than compensation arrangements, which are described where required under "Executive Compensation" and "Director Compensation."

Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement

We are party to an amended and restated shareholders agreement with AIP, entities affiliated with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the "JPM Holders") and certain of our existing stockholders (the "Shareholders Agreement") that we entered into in connection with our IPO. Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, AIP has the following rights so long as it beneficially owns at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock:

· to nominate the greater of five members of the Board or a majority of directors;
· to designate the Chairman of our Board and one member to each of the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee;
· to approve the commencement of any proceeding for the voluntary dissolution, winding up or bankruptcy of the Company or any material subsidiary;
· to approve any non-pro rata reduction to the share capital of the Company or any material subsidiary, except as required by law;
· to approve amendments to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that would change the name of the Company, its jurisdiction of incorporation, the location of its principal executive offices, the purpose or purposes for which the Company is incorporated or the approval requirements as provided in the Shareholders Agreement;
· to approve special dividends greater than $10 million;
· to approve any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company or the spin-off of a business of the Company with assets in excess of 15% of the consolidated assets or revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries;
· the sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or more than 15% of the consolidated assets or revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries; and
· any designation to the Board contrary to the Shareholders Agreement or the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws.

In addition, for so long as AIP beneficially owns at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, AIP is entitled to certain information rights, including the right to consult with and advise senior management, to receive quarterly and annual financial statements and to review our books and records. We are also required to cooperate with AIP in connection with certain pledges of our shares or grants of security interests in respect thereof, including in connection with margin loans.

15

The Shareholders Agreement also provides for the reimbursement of certain expenses that AIP incurs in connection with providing management services to us. During fiscal year 2021, reimbursements of expenses to AIP for management services totaled $0.4 million.

The Shareholders Agreement will automatically terminate when AIP ceases to beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at least 15% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock.

Registration Rights Agreement

We are party to a registration rights agreement with AIP, the JPM Holders and certain other existing stockholders (each, a "Stockholder" and together, the "Stockholders"), each of which is entitled to certain demand and piggyback registration rights. As of January 10, 2022, the Stockholders held an aggregate of approximately 27,562,505 million shares of our common stock, or approximately 43.4% of the voting power of our common stock outstanding. The registration rights described below will expire on the date on which the securities subject to the registration rights agreement may be sold by the holder in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

Demand Registration Rights. Subject to certain requirements and other limitations in the registration rights agreement, AIP and any other Stockholder or group of Stockholders holding at least 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock may request that we register all or a portion of their shares. Any such request must cover a quantity of shares with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least $50.0 million. To the extent we are a well-known seasoned issuer, the Stockholders making a demand registration may also request that we file an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that covers the registrable securities requested to be registered. Depending on certain conditions, we may defer a demand registration for up to 90 days in any 12-month period. These demand registration rights remain available to AIP but are no longer available to the remaining Stockholders, since upon completion of AIP's secondary offering in June 15, 2021, the Stockholders ceased to beneficially own a majority of the Company's common stock.

Piggyback Registration Rights. In the event that we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act, either for our account or for the account of our other security holders, the Stockholders will be entitled to certain piggyback registration rights allowing each to include its shares in the registration, subject to certain marketing and other limitations. As a result, whenever we propose to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, the holders of these shares are entitled to notice of the registration.

Transfer Restrictions. The registration rights agreement will contain certain transfer restrictions applicable to the parties thereto. Without the consent of AIP, and subject to certain exceptions, no party to the registration rights agreement will be permitted to transfer their shares of our common stock except in a registered offering being conducted pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the registration rights agreement.

Expenses; Indemnification. The registration rights agreement provides that we must pay all registration expenses (other than the underwriting discounts and commissions) in connection with effecting any demand registration or shelf registration. The registration rights agreement contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions.

Indemnification Agreements

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. In addition, we have entered into customary indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals and, in certain cases, affiliates of such individuals, to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us or at our direction, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, there is a consolidated federal putative securities class action and a consolidated state putative securities class action pending presently pending against the Company and certain of its officers and directors. Two purported derivative actions, which have since been consolidated, were also filed in federal court in Delaware in 2019 against the Company's directors (with the Company as a nominal defendant), premised on allegations similar to those asserted in the consolidated federal securities litigation. Each of the Company's former officers named as defendants in the lawsuits (former CEO Timothy Sullivan and former CFO

16

Dean Nolden) and each of the Company's directors are receiving defense and indemnification from the Company consistent with the foregoing indemnity agreements, and with indemnity obligations described in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws.

Related Person Transactions Policy

We have a formal, written policy with respect to the review, approval, ratification and disclosure of related person transactions. The policy requires that a "related person" (as defined in Item 404 of the SEC's Regulation S-K) or the business leader responsible for entering into the "related person transaction" (as defined in Item 404 of the SEC's regulation S-K) on our behalf, must, prior to entering into the related person transaction, notify our General Counsel and the chairman of our audit committee of the facts and circumstances of the proposed transaction. Under the policy, our audit committee, and, in limited circumstances, the chairman of our audit committee, is responsible for reviewing the facts and circumstances and determining whether to approve the related person transaction. In particular, our policy requires our audit committee to consider, among other factors it deems appropriate:

· the related person's relationship to us and interest in the transaction;
· the material facts of the proposed transaction, including the proposed aggregate value of the transaction;
· the impact on a director's independence in the event the related person is a director or an immediate family member of the director;
· the benefits to us of the proposed transaction;
· if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services; and
· an assessment of whether the proposed transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.

The audit committee (or audit committee chairman) may only approve those transactions that it determines, in good faith, are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders.

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation of our named executive officers is determined under our compensation program for senior executives. This program is overseen by the Board and its compensation committee (referred to as the "Compensation Committee"). The Board determines the compensation of our executive officers in consultation with the recommendations of the Compensation Committee.

This compensation discussion and analysis focuses on our named executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table and the other compensation tables below (referred to as our "named executive officers"). Our named executive officers are executive officers who served in the roles of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer during fiscal year 2021, as well as our three next most highly compensated executive officers during fiscal year 2021. Our named executive officers for fiscal year 2021 were:

· Rodney N. Rushing, Chief Executive Officer;
· Mark A. Skonieczny, SVP and Chief Financial Officer;
· Stephen W. Boettinger, SVP, General Counsel and Secretary; and
· Christopher M. Daniels, SVP and Chief Human Resources Officer

Principal Objectives of Our Compensation Program for Named Executive Officers

Our executive team is critical to our success and to building value for our stockholders. The principal objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

· attract, retain and motivate high-caliber executive officers by providing a total compensation program that takes into consideration competitive market requirements and strategic business needs;
· clearly align the financial interests of executive officers with those of our stockholders;
· encourage behavior consistent with our values and reinforce ethical business practices; and
· appropriately reward executive officers for creating long-term stockholder value.

Compensation Setting Process

Our Chief Executive Officer has discretion to recommend both the contractual and discretionary compensation of the named executive officers, other than himself, in consultation with our Board. Our Board has historically had overall responsibility for overseeing our executive compensation policies and compensation plans and programs. In consultation with our Chief Executive Officer, our Board reviews our achievements as a company and those of our executive officers when determining the specific type and level of compensation of our named executive officers.

We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable and appropriate to attract and retain talent to meet our business needs. In addition to certain information provided by Aon Consulting, Inc. ("Aon"), with respect to executive officer and director compensation matters as discussed below, we have informally considered the competitive market for corresponding positions within comparable geographic areas and companies of similar size, industry and stage of development. The Board and the Company have also used a defined peer group for benchmarking executive pay levels and practices. The Board reviewed various data provided by our compensation consultants, and selected the following thirteen peer companies:

21

Alamo Group Inc.
Astec Industries, Inc.
Blue Bird Corporation
Federal Signal Corporation
Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc.
LCI Industries
Miller Industries, Inc.
Oshkosh Corporation
The Manitowoc Company, Inc.
The Shyft Group, Inc.
Thor Industries, Inc.
Wabash National Corporation
Winnebago Industries, Inc.

Compensation was determined with the application of subjective discretion rather than by applying a rigid formula or matrix to set total compensation in relation to compensation paid by peer companies. Our historical approach has been to consider competitive compensation practices and other factors, such as how much compensation was necessary to recruit and retain an executive officer, as well as individual performance.

For the named executive officers (other than our Chief Executive Officer), our Chief Executive Officer has considered such named executive officer's responsibilities and prior experience. Our Chief Executive Officer then consults with the Board on his recommendations to the Board regarding base salary increases, formula based and discretionary bonus and incentive amounts and equity award amounts, and advises the Board regarding the compensation program's ability to attract, retain and motivate executive talent. These recommendations reflect compensation levels that our Chief Executive Officer believes are commensurate with such named executive officer's individual qualifications, experience, responsibility level, functional role, knowledge, skills and individual performance, as well as our Company's performance and competitive offerings, and the peer company benchmarking data.

In determining our Chief Executive Officer's compensation, the Board takes into consideration our performance, our Chief Executive Officer's contribution to that performance and the desire to retain and motivate the Chief Executive Officer, and the peer company benchmarking data.

The Compensation Committee administers our executive compensation program in accordance with its charter, including making recommendations to our Board for approval of various matters.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Aon provides guidance and advice on compensation-related matters. We continue to use a proprietary job grading system, as well as broad-based salary survey data, from Willis Towers Watson. The aggregate cost to the Company of these additional products and services did not exceed $120,000 during fiscal year 2021. In connection with our engagement of both Aon and Willis Towers Watson, our Board conducted an assessment of potential conflicts of interest of each of Aon and Willis Towers Watson, and no conflicts of interest relating to either of their services were identified.

Shareholder Engagement and Say-on-Pay Vote

We are committed to open and ongoing communication with our shareholders, including with respect to executive compensation and corporate governance matters.

At our 2021 Annual Meeting, our shareholders approved by more than 92% of the votes cast, on an advisory basis, the 2020 compensation of our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee has carefully considered the results of the advisory vote and believe that those results validate our executive compensation program, performance assessment and decision-making process.

22

Elements of Compensation

The following is a discussion of the primary elements of the compensation for each of our named executive officers.

Annual Base Salary

We believe that providing each of our named executive officers a competitive annual base salary is an important component of compensation. A competitive annual base salary provides a degree of financial stability to our named executive officers that enhances their performance on behalf of our stockholders and is critical to recruiting and retaining our named executive officers. We do not have formal written policies or guidelines for setting or adjusting the annual base salary of our named executive officers but instead make a subjective determination based on certain factors that we believe are relevant. Specifically, we will consider the executive's experience, responsibilities and unique leadership skills as well as any changes in the competitive market environment. For fiscal year 2021, survey and proxy data were considered in recommendations made by the Chief Executive Officer to the Board for changes in the base salaries of the executive officers, if any. Any changes were consistent with market data, the experience and performance of the executive officers.

Annual Cash Incentive Program

An annual cash incentive program is recognized as a competitive element of executive compensation and is critical to recruiting and retaining our named executive officers. Further, it incentivizes our named executive officers to achieve annual results in line with the expectations of our shareholders. For fiscal year 2021, our named executive officers participated in the REV Group Management Incentive Plan, which we refer to as the MIP. The MIP metrics, targets and weighting used to calculate payments for the named executive officers were based on full Company performance, and were the same as those used for calculating MIP payment for all corporate employees. The MIP calculations for employees at a division or business unit level used similar types of metrics as the corporate MIP, but the metrics and targets were based at least partially on division and/or business unit performance, and weighting between metrics differed based on an employee's division or business unit position. Under the MIP, incentive payments for named executive officers are based on each named executive officer's incentive target and the achievement of the performance metrics set forth below. The Board, in its discretion, may reduce the size of any payout under the MIP. For fiscal year 2021, the incentive targets for our named executive officers, as a percentage of base salary, were as follows:

· Rodney N. Rushing-120%
· Mark A. Skonieczny-75%
· Stephen W. Boettinger-60% through December 19, 2020; 70% effective December 20, 2020
· Christopher M. Daniels-70%

Whether named executive officer participants of the MIP would be eligible to receive incentive payments was determined based on a combination of the Company's annual Adjusted EBITDA and annual average net working capital as a percent of Sales ("Average NWC"). Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric that represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for other one time and noncash expense items. The annual corporate targets for fiscal year 2021 were established at $137.6 million of Adjusted EBITDA and Average NWC of 18%. A threshold performance level of 90% of Adjusted EBITDA target and 90% of NWC target must be met before any annual incentive payments are made to our named executive officers. At 90% achievement of annual targets, MIP participants receive 30% of the annual portion of their individual incentive target. At 100% achievement of annual targets, MIP participants receive 100% of the annual portion of their individual incentive targets. Participants can achieve a maximum incentive payment of 200% of individual incentive target if annual Adjusted EBITDA is 20% better than target or Average NWC is 80% of target. For fiscal year 2021, a MIP payout factor of 111% was achieved, 103% attributable to the Company's annual Adjusted EBITDA and 101% attributable to Average NWC.

Long-Term Equity Compensation

Our shareholder-approved omnibus incentive plan ("Omnibus Plan") provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options, SARs, restricted stock, RSUs, performance awards, deferred awards, other share-based awards and other cash-based awards. The Board, or, to the extent authority is delegated by the Board, the Compensation Committee or other committee (each, an, "Administrator") will determine the effect of a termination of employment or service on outstanding awards, including whether the awards will vest, become exercisable, settle or be forfeited. Under the Omnibus Plan, in the event of a change in control, except as otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, the Administrator may provide for: (1) continuation or assumption of outstanding awards under the Omnibus Plan by us (if we are the surviving corporation) or by the surviving corporation or its parent; (2) substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of awards with substantially the same terms and value as such outstanding awards under the Omnibus Plan; (3) acceleration of the vesting (including the lapse of any restrictions, with any performance criteria or conditions deemed met at target) or the right to exercise outstanding awards immediately prior to the date of the change in control and the expiration of awards not timely exercised by the date determined by the Administrator; or (4) in the case of outstanding stock options and SARs, cancelation in consideration of a payment in cash or other consideration equal to the intrinsic value of the award.

For fiscal year 2021, our named executive officers received grants of restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), which provide long-term incentives to our named executive officers while aligning their interests with our stockholders. RSAs generally vest in equal, annual installments over a four-year period, but may have a shorter vesting period in the case of new hires who are forfeiting compensation to previous employers. When determining each named executive officer's award, we considered market compensation data, the executive's experience, responsibilities and unique leadership skills, as well as the retentive effect of the equity award. Prior to fiscal year 2020, named executive officers received grants of restricted stock units. In fiscal year 2021, we did not grant any stock options under the Omnibus Plan to our named executive officers.

We anticipate that we will continue to use equity awards as an integral part of our executive compensation program. Equity awards are an important component of compensation for named executive officers and other executive leadership positions. REV Group provides annual equity awards in alignment with market compensation practices and to align interests with our stockholders.

Employment Arrangements with Named Executive Officers

Offer Letters

Each of our named executive officers received an offer letter from the Company that follows a common template and sets forth the named executive officer's annual base salary and cash incentive payment based on a target level of annual base salary.

Mr. Rushing entered into an offer letter with the Company dated March 5, 2020 that, in addition to the foregoing, also provides for enhanced severance payments (in place of the standard severance benefits provided under the Company's Severance Policy as described in more detail below under "-Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control") in the event that Mr. Rushing is terminated without cause in the one-year period ending December 31, 2021. If Mr. Rushing is terminated after December 31, 2021, he is entitled to the standard severance benefits under the Company's Severance Policy.

Severance and Change in Control Agreements

We maintain a severance policy (the "Severance Policy"), and, in addition, each of our named executive officers have signed a Change in Control Severance Agreement ("CIC Agreement"). The purpose of the Severance Policy and the CIC Agreement is to provide reasonable and consistent severance benefits upon qualifying termination events. The severance policy and CIC Agreement are described in more detail below under "-Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control".

Restrictive Covenant Agreements

Each of our named executive officers is a party to the REV Restrictive Covenant Agreement (the "Restrictive Covenant Agreement"), which provides that during the employment period and for one year following a termination of employment, the named executive officer will not, directly or indirectly, solicit our employees or customers. The

24

Restrictive Covenant Agreement also prevents each named executive officer from directly or indirectly competing with the Company during the employment period and for one year following a termination of employment. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement contains a perpetual nondisclosure covenant.

Other Benefits

Retirement Plan

We maintain a qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan for all of our employees. Our named executive officers participate in this plan on the same basis as our employees generally. Under the plan, employees may elect to defer eligible pay up to the annual maximum allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company makes a safe harbor matching contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% of salary contributed by a participating employee, and a 50% matching contribution of the next 2% of salary contributed by a participating employee, for a total employer matching contribution of 4%. Company matching contributions begin after enrollment, and participating employees are 100% vested immediately in such contributions.

Deferred Compensation Plan

Our named executive officers and all of our highly compensated employees (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) are eligible to participate in the REV Group, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan"). Eligibility to participate in the deferred compensation plan is limited to a select group of management or highly compensated employees. Participants are permitted to defer between 1% and 100% of their base salary and annual incentive payment. Participants select the allocation of their accounts among investment indices selected by the Company. The Company does not provide matching contributions to participants of the deferred compensation plan. Our Board may amend the plan at any time, as long as such amendment does not have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a participant's accounts. None of our named executive officers currently participate in the deferred compensation plan.

Health, Welfare and Other Benefit Plans

Our named executive officers are entitled to the same health and welfare benefits as our employees generally, including medical, dental and vision insurance, as well as flex and health savings accounts, life insurance, short-term disability insurance (fully paid by the Company), long-term disability insurance, accident insurance and critical illness insurance.

We offer relocation benefits to newly hired named executive officers as necessary. Our named executive officers did not receive any other perquisites in fiscal year 2021 and we do not provide any named executive officer with any tax gross-ups or other reimbursement for amounts the executive officer might pay pursuant to Section 280G or Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code or otherwise.

Compensation Risk Assessment

Our Compensation Committee has performed a review of compensation policies and practices for all of our employees and has concluded that our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We believe it is important for our named executive officers to be owners in the Company to ensure the alignment of their goals with the interests of our stockholders. In connection with our IPO, we established guidelines of equity ownership for our Chief Executive Officer equivalent to five times his base salary and for our other executive officers equivalent to three times their respective base salaries. Further, the guidelines also expect directors to own equity equal to three times their board fees, if any. Each has a transition period of five years to meet the requirements set forth in the guidelines to the extent they are not currently in compliance with this guideline. As of the date hereof, our named executive officers and directors have achieved these guidelines within the required five-year period. The Compensation Committee reviews the stock ownership of the executive officers and directors on an annual basis to ensure compliance with the ownership guidelines.

25

Accounting and Tax Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 162(m)") generally imposes a $1 million cap on federal income tax deduction for compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and to certain other highly compensated officers during any fiscal year. The Board and our Compensation Committee continues to have the flexibility to pay nondeductible compensation if it believes it is in the best interests of the Company, including when it believes such payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.

Any equity awards that may be granted to our employees, including our executive officers, pursuant to the Omnibus Plan or any other long-term incentive plans that we may adopt, will be reflected in our consolidated financial statements, based upon the applicable accounting guidance, at fair market value on the grant date in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Topic 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation."

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Severance Policy. The Severance Policy provides severance payments to participants upon an "involuntary separation from service," which includes an elimination for lack of work, cost containment, a general reduction in force, or other reasons unrelated to job performance. An "involuntary separation from service" specifically excludes a termination of employment for cause or otherwise due to job performance or other job-related matters. Receipt of severance payments is contingent on a participant's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

The following amounts reflect the severance payments our named executive officers would have been eligible to receive under the Severance Policy (or, for Mr. Rushing, his offer letter) upon experiencing an "involuntary separation from service" on October 31, 2021:

· Rodney N. Rushing-$1,500,000
· Mark A. Skonieczny-$470,000
· Stephen W. Boettinger-$404,229
· Christopher M. Daniels-$400,000

Change in Control Severance Agreements. Our named executive officers have signed Change in Control ‎Severance Agreements ("CIC Agreement") which provides for double-trigger payments upon a qualifying termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company ‎‎("Change in Control"). The termination payment upon a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to two times to three times (for the CEO) the sum of (i) the named executive officer's ‎base salary in effect as of the termination of employment, or if higher, the named executive officer's base salary ‎that was in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, plus (ii) the greater of (x) the named executive ‎officer's target MIP for the Company's fiscal year that includes the named executive officer's termination date or ‎‎(y) the executive's target MIP for the fiscal year during which the Change in Control occurred. Additionally, the CIC Agreement provides for (i) reasonable outplacement services of up to $30,000 and (ii) continuation of hospitalization, medical and dental coverage at the expense of the Company for the earlier of (A) the 18-month anniversary of the termination date or (B) such time as the Executive has obtained new employment and is covered by benefits that are as least as favorable in the aggregate to the benefits that the named executive officer received prior to termination.

The termination ‎payment shall be contingent on the named executive officer executing a general release of claims and the ‎expiration of the revocation period applicable to the release. Except as otherwise provided in the CIC Agreement, ‎the termination payment shall be paid to the executive in a cash lump sum as soon as practical following the ‎named executive officer's execution of, and expiration of the revocation period provided for, in the release. ‎

30

Pursuant to the release, following the termination of his or her employment with the Company, each named ‎executive officer is generally subject to restrictive covenants of (i) trade secret non-disclosure for perpetuity; (ii) ‎confidential information non-disclosure for two years; (iii) non-solicitation of existing or prospective clients of the ‎Company for 24 months for the CEO and 18 months for the other named executive officers; (iv) non-solicitation of employees of the Company for 24 months for the CEO and 18 months for the other named executive officers; and (v) non-‎competition for 24 months for the CEO and 18 months for the other named executive officers. The named executive officer shall not be required to mitigate the amount of the ‎termination payment by securing other employment or otherwise, nor will such termination payment be reduced by ‎reason of the named executive officer securing other employment or for any other reason. If the named executive ‎officer is entitled to the termination payment under the CIC Agreement, the termination payment shall be in lieu of ‎any payments under any other severance policy or practice of the Company.‎

The following amounts reflect the severance payments our named executive officers would have been eligible ‎to receive under a Change in Control Severance Agreement upon experiencing a Change in Control on October 31, 2021:‎

· Rodney N. Rushing-$2,640,000
· Mark A. Skonieczny-$940,000
· Stephen W. Boettinger-$808,458
· Christopher M. Daniels-$800,000

Mr. Rushing's PSU Award Agreement. Mr. Rushing's PSU Award Agreement provides that if Mr. Rushing's employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason within 12 months following a change in control, 100% of his target PSUs would become immediately vested.

No Single Trigger Accelerated Vesting Upon Change in Control. Our named executive officers do not hold any unvested equity awards, including stock options, that would have vested if a change in control had occurred on October 31, 2021.

Pay Ratio

As of October 31, 2021, our employee population consisted of approximately 6,833 individuals, of which all were working in the United States. The same median employee was selected for 2021 as for 2020 from an adjusted employee population of 6,833. The Company believes there has been no change to its employee population or employee compensation arrangements that would result in a significant change to the pay ratio disclosure. For fiscal year 2021, our median employee's annual total compensation was $52,347, and our Chief Executive Officer's annual total compensation was $5,874,288. Our median employee, and his/her annual total compensation, were determined using the same methodology we used to determine the annual total compensation of our named executive officers. Our estimate of the ratio of our Chief Executive Officer's annual total compensation to our median employee's total compensation for fiscal year 2021 is 112:1.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated by reference into the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021.

Director Compensation

The following table sets forth a summary of the compensation we paid to each non-employee member of our Board for fiscal year 2021. Other than as set forth in the table and described more fully below, we did not pay any compensation to, make any equity awards or non-equity awards to, or pay any other compensation to any of the other non-employee members of our Board in fiscal year 2021. Mr. Rushing is a member of our Board who also serves as our Chief Executive Officer and therefore did not receive any additional compensation for his service as a director. The directors who are employed by AIP voluntarily waived any compensation for their service.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth information relating to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of January 10, 2022, by:

· each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock;
· each of our directors, nominees and named executive officers; and
· all directors and named executive officers as a group.

A person is a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares voting or investment power over the security or if that person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power over the security within 60 days. Unless otherwise noted, these persons, to our knowledge, have sole voting and investment power over the shares listed. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of January 10, 2022. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 63,474,523 shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 10, 2022. Unless otherwise indicated below, the address for each beneficial owner listed is c/o REV Group, Inc., 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Such officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

The material in this report is not "soliciting material," is not deemed "filed" with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of REV under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The primary purpose of the audit committee is to oversee our financial reporting processes on behalf of our Board. The audit committee's functions are more fully described in its charter, which is available on our website at www.revgroup.com. Management has the primary responsibility for our financial statements and reporting processes, including our systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the audit committee reviewed and discussed with management REV's audited financial statements as of and for fiscal year 2021.

The audit committee has discussed with RSM, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB") and the SEC. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with RSM their independence, and has received from RSM the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding RSM's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. Finally, the audit committee discussed with RSM, with and without management present, the scope and results of RSM's audit of REV's audited financial statements as of and for fiscal year 2021.

Based on these reviews and discussions, the audit committee has recommended to our Board that such audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2021 for filing with the SEC. The audit committee also has engaged RSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2022 and is seeking ratification of such selection by the stockholders.

Additional Information

Electronic Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for Stockholder Meeting to be Held on March 3, 2022: This Proxy Statement and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2021 are available electronically at www.edocumentview.com/REVG.

Householding of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

Brokers with account holders who are REV stockholders may be "householding" our proxy materials. A single proxy statement may be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be "householding" communications to your address, "householding" will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you notify your broker or the Company that you no longer wish to participate in "householding."

If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, you may (1) notify your broker or (2) direct your written request to: 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of this Proxy Statement at their address and would like to request "householding" of their communications should contact their broker. In addition, the Company will promptly deliver, upon written request to the address above or oral request at (786) 279-7021, a separate copy of the Form 10-K, Proxy Statement, Proxy Card or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.

Other Matters

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board does not intend to present any matters other than those described herein at the Annual Meeting and is unaware of any matters to be presented by other parties. If other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting for action by the stockholders, proxies will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board or, in the absence of such a recommendation, in the discretion of the proxy holder.

We have filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2021 with the SEC. It is available free of charge at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. Upon written request by a REV stockholder, we will mail without charge a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the financial statements and financial statement schedules, but excluding exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K are available upon payment of a reasonable fee, which is limited to our expenses in furnishing the requested exhibit. All requests should be directed to Stephen W. Boettinger, Secretary of the Board at 245 S. Executive Drive, Suite 100, Brookfield, Wisconsin 53005.
