ELECTIONS TO DEFER

Section 4.01.  General Provisions.

(a)A Director newly elected to the Board may elect to defer his or her Compensation attributable to services performed for the balance of the Payment Year in which he or she was elected.

(b)Before December 31 of any year, an incumbent Director may elect to defer all or a portion of his Compensation for services as a Director during any Payment Year(s) beginning in a later calendar year, in which case the elected deferrals shall be deferred and credited to a bookkeeping sub-account or sub-accounts for the applicable Payment Year established pursuant to the terms of the Plan.
(c)A Participant may change an existing deferral election with respect to future Compensation only by filing a new election form pursuant to Subsection (b), in which case the change shall be effective with respect to the Participant’s Compensation for services as a Director during the Payment Year beginning after the calendar year in which the election was filed (and later Payment Years, as elected by the Participant).
(d)A Participant may change the Designated Distribution Date and/or Designated Form for a Payment Year’s sub-account only by filing an Applicable Form with the Administrator that meets the following requirements:  the Participant’ election change shall (i) not be effective until 12 months after it is filed with the Administrator, (ii) be valid only if it defers the payment of the relevant sub-account for a period of not less than five years from the date it otherwise would have been made, and (iii) if the election relates to a payment at a specified time or pursuant to a specified schedule, be valid only if it is made at least 12 months before the date the payment is scheduled to be paid.
(e)A Participant may change the investment option(s) stipulated for crediting earnings on his or her Account pursuant to Section 5.02(c) and Article VI of the Plan and such procedures as are prescribed by the Administrator.
(f)A Participant may change his or her designation of Beneficiary(ies) at any time by filing a new election form with the Administrator.

Section 4.02  Election Form.  A Director may make an election to defer amounts under the Plan by filing with the Administrator an Applicable Form within the applicable time as specified in Section 4.01 above.  A completed election form shall stipulate:

(a)The percentage of the cash portion of eligible Compensation and the common stock portion of eligible Compensation to be deferred.
(b)The method of distribution of the Participant’s Account.  The Participant may elect to receive payment of his Account in either (i) one lump sum payment or (ii) a specified number of annual installments, not to exceed 15.

(c)The date on which distribution is to commence, subject to the provisions of Article VII.
(d)The optional rate(s) for crediting earnings on Cash Deferrals.

ARTICLE V
DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNT’S

Section 5.01.  Establishment of Deferred Cash Accounts.  At the time of a Participant’s initial election to make Cash Deferrals pursuant to Article IV, the Company shall establish a bookkeeping account (known as the Deferred Cash Account) for such Participant to record his interest under the Plan attributable to Cash Deferrals.  Cash Deferrals made by a Participant for a Payment Year shall be credited to the Deferred Cash Account as of the last day of the Payment Year, and the Account shall be adjusted as provided in Article VI.

Section 5.02.  Establishment of Deferred Stock Account

(a)At the time of a Participant’s initial election to make Stock Deferrals pursuant to Article IV, the Company shall establish a bookkeeping account (known as the Deferred Stock Account) for such Participant to record his interest under the Plan attributable to Stock Deferrals.  Stock Deferrals made by a Participant for a Payment Year (rounded up to the next whole share) shall be credited to the Deferred Stock Account as of the last day of the Payment Year.  Any part of the stock portion of a Director’s Compensation not covered by a Stock Deferral election shall be paid to the Director in accordance with the terms of the Cummins Inc. 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (or any successor plan thereto) and the applicable award thereunder.
(b)The Deferred Stock Account shall also be credited with an amount equivalent to the dividends that would have been paid on an equal number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock then credited to the Participant’s Deferred Stock Account.  Such amount shall be credited as of the payment date of such dividend and converted into an additional number of whole and partial deferred shares as of such date (based on the average of the closing prices of such stock for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date).  Such additional deferred shares shall thereafter be treated in the same manner as any other shares credited to the Participant’s Deferred Stock Account.
(c)Upon either (i) a Participant reaching age 70, or (ii) commencement of distribution of the Participant’s Account, the Participant may elect to allocate all or any portion of the value of Participant’s Deferred Stock Account into the other available investment options under the Plan.  The Participant may chose more than one investment option in such minimum increments as are prescribed by the Administrator.
Such election must be made in writing no later than the beginning of the year one year prior to the year in which either (i) age 70 is attained, or (ii) the first annual installment from the Account which is to be affected by the election is made.
The value of the stock units affected by this election shall be determined by multiplying the number of stock units so affected by the 90-day average closing price of the Common Stock of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange covering the 90 trading days immediately preceding the date the investment diversification election is submitted by the Participant to the Administrator.  After the initial diversification is made, a Participant may change the investment election once per month (beginning after the initial diversification election) or at other times prescribed by the Administrator.
(d)The number and kinds of shares standing to the credit of a Participant’s Deferred Stock Account shall be appropriately adjusted from time to time, as determined by the Administrator in its discretion, in the event of changes in the Company’s outstanding common stock by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, spinoffs, or other distributions of assets (other than normal cash dividends), recapitalizations, reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations, exchanges, or other relevant changes in the Company’s corporate structure or capitalization.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall subdivide the shares of common stock or the Company shall declare a dividend payable in shares of common stock, and if no action is taken by the Administrator, then the adjustments contemplated by this subsection (d) that are proportionate shall nevertheless automatically be made as of the date of such subdivision of the shares or dividend in shares.

Section 5.03.  Separate Accounts for Grandfathered Amounts.  The Company shall separately account for Grandfathered Amounts and Non-Grandfathered Amounts.

5
4844-4073-4733.5    

ARTICLE VI
ADJUSTMENTS TO DEFERRED CASH ACCOUNTS

As of the last day of each calendar month, the Company shall credit the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account with an earnings factor.  The earnings factor will equal the amount the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account would have earned if it had been invested in the investment options determined from time to time by the Company.  The Participant is permitted to select the investment option(s) used to determine the earnings factor and may change the selection once per month or at other times as prescribed by the Administrator.  The Participant may choose more than one investment option in such minimum increments as are prescribed by the Administrator.  The Company reserves the right to change or amend any of the investment options at any time.  The Company is under no obligation to acquire or provide any of the investments designated by a Participant, and any investments actually made by the Company will be made solely in the name of the Company and will remain the property of the Company.  The crediting of an earnings factor shall occur so long as there is a balance in the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account, regardless of whether the Participant has Terminated Service.
ARTICLE VII
PAYMENT OF DEFERRED AMOUNTS

Section 7.01.  Timing of Payments.  Each Payment Year’s sub-account within a Participant’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account shall be paid (or commence distribution, if paid in installments) to the Participant (or the Participant’s Beneficiary, if the Participant is deceased) on the earliest to occur of the following:
(a)the Participant’s death as described in Section 7.04;
(b)the first business day of the calendar quarter following the Participant’s Termination of Service; 
(c)a Change of Control as described in Section 7.05; or
(d)the Designated Distribution Date for the Payment Year’s sub-account.

Section 7.02.  Form of Payment.  All distributions from a Participant’s Deferred Cash Account shall be paid in cash.  All distributions from a Participant’s Deferred Stock Account shall be paid in shares of Company common stock (other than any fractional share which shall be paid in cash) and such shares shall be issued under, and subject to, the Cummins Inc. 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (or a successor plan thereto); provided that, to the extent the allocation election described in Section 5.02(c) has been made, the amount so allocated shall be paid in cash.

Section 7.03.  Amount of Installment Payments.
(a)The amount of each annual cash installment from a Payment Year’s sub-account within a Participant’s Deferred Cash Account or a Participant’s Deferred Stock Account (to the extent the allocation election described in Section 5.02(c) has been made) shall be determined by dividing the credit balance in such sub-account as of the distribution date by the number of installments then remaining unpaid (including the installment for which the calculation is being made).  The credit balance in the Payment Year’s sub-account within the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account or Deferred Stock Account shall be reduced by the amount of each distribution out of such Account.
(b)The number of shares distributed in each annual installment from a Payment Year’s sub-account within a Participant’s Deferred Stock Account (to the extent allocated to stock units) shall be determined by dividing the number of stock units in such sub-account as of the distribution date by the number of installments then remaining unpaid (including the installment for which the calculation is being made), with the number to be distributed rounded up to the next whole share.  The number of stock units in the Payment Year’s sub-account within the Participant’s Deferred Stock Account shall be reduced by the number of shares included in each installment.  The value of any partial share remaining on the date of the final installment from such sub-account shall be paid in cash.

Section 7.04.  Death Benefits.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of the Participant’s death, payment of the entire balance in the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account shall be made to the Participant’s designated Beneficiary(ies) in a single lump sum payment within 90 days following the Participant’s death.

Section 7.05.  Payments Upon a Change of Control.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon a Change of Control, the balance in each Participant’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account shall 

6
4844-4073-4733.5    

be paid to the Participant (or, if the Participant is deceased, Beneficiary) in a single lump sum payment.  Such payment shall be made on the date of the Change of Control.

Section 7.06.  Payments on Account of Unforeseeable Emergency .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.01, if a Participant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Chairman of the Board and the Chair of the Compensation Committee of the Board (together, the “Chairs”) that he or she has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency, the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need (including any amounts necessary to pay any income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution), as determined by the Chairs, shall be distributed to the Participant as soon as administratively feasible after the decision of the Chairs; provided that, in determining whether an Unforeseeable Emergency has been incurred and the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need, the Chairs shall take into consideration, among other things, all amounts available to the Participant under the Cummins Inc. and Affiliates Retirement and Savings Plans (“RSP”) (including by obtaining a loan under the RSP).  If the Chairs grant a request for withdrawal pursuant to this Section, the Administrator shall prospectively cancel the Participant’s existing deferral elections, and the Chairs shall take into account the additional compensation that is available as a result of the cancellation of those elections in determining the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the Participant’s emergency need.

Section 7.07.  Designating a Beneficiary

(a)The Participant may designate a Beneficiary only by filing a completed Applicable Form with the Administrator during his life.  The Participant’s proper filing of a Beneficiary designation shall cancel all prior Beneficiary designations.  If the Participant does not designate a Beneficiary, or if all properly designated Beneficiaries die before the Participant, then payment of the balance in the Participant’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account shall be made to the Participant’s estate in the event of the Participant’s death.
(b)The following rules shall determine the apportionment of payments due under the Plan among Beneficiaries in the event of the Participant’s death:
		
	(1)
	If any Beneficiary designated by the Participant as a “Direct Beneficiary” dies before the Participant, his or her interest and the interest of his or her heirs in any payments under the Plan shall terminate and the percentage share of the remaining Beneficiaries designated as Direct Beneficiaries shall be increased on a pro rata basis.  If no such Beneficiary survives the Participant, the Participant’s entire interest in the Plan shall pass to any Beneficiary designated as a “Contingent Beneficiary.” 

		
	(2)
	If any Beneficiary designated by the Participant as a “Contingent Beneficiary” dies before the Participant, his or her interest and the interest of his or her heirs in any payments under the Plan shall terminate and the percentage share of the remaining Beneficiaries designated as Contingent Beneficiaries shall be increased on a pro rata basis.  

		
	(3)
	If any Beneficiary dies after the Participant, but before payment is made to such Beneficiary, then the payment shall be made to the Beneficiary’s estate.

ARTICLE VIII
ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN

ARTICLE IX
GROSS-UP PAYMENTS

If payment of the lump sum value of the Deferred Amounts pursuant to Section 7.05 (“Accelerated Payment”) causes the Accelerated Payment and any other payments made in connection with a Change of Control (together with the Accelerated Payment, the “Total Payments”) to be subject to the tax (“Excise Tax”) imposed by Code Section 4999, the Company shall pay to the Participant an additional amount (“Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained by the Participant, after deduction of any Excise Tax paid or payable (and not grossed-up under a similar provision of another plan or program sponsored by the Company) on the lump sum and such other Total Payments and any federal, state, and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the payment provided for by this Article, shall be equal to the Accelerated Payment and such other Total Payments.  If any of such other Total Payments are subject to the Excise Tax without regard to the Accelerated Payment, a Gross-Up Payment shall be made, but shall be limited to the increase in the Excise Tax (plus any federal, state, and local income tax and Excise Tax on such Gross-Up Payment) arising solely as a result of the Accelerated Payment.

8
4844-4073-4733.5    

For purposes of determining whether any of the payments described above will he subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, (i) any other payments or benefits received or to be received by the Participant in connection with a Change of Control, whether payable pursuant to the terms of the Plan or any other plan, arrangement, or agreement with the Company, its successors, any person whose actions result in a change in control of the Company or any corporation affiliated (or which, as a result of the completion of a transaction causing a change of control, will become affiliated) with the Company within the meaning of Code Section 1504 shall be treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(2), and all “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company’s independent auditors, the payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(4) either in their entirety or in excess of the base amount within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(3), or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax, (ii) the amount of the payments that shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of (A) the total amount of the payments or (B) the amount of excess parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(1) (after applying clause (i), above), and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company’s independent auditors and acceptable to the Participant in accordance with the principles of Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4).  In the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to be less than the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of payment, the Participant shall repay to the Company at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is finally determined the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such reduction (plus the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise Tax and federal and state and local income tax imposed on the Gross-Up Payment being repaid by the Participant if such repayment results in a reduction in Excise Tax and/or a federal and state and local income tax deduction) plus interest on the amount of such repayment at the rate provided in Code Section 1274(d).  In the event that the Excise Tax is determined to exceed the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of the Gross-Up Payment (including by reason of any payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time of the Gross-Up Payment), the Company shall make an additional Gross-Up Payment in respect of such excess (plus any interest payable with respect to such excess) at the time that the amount of such excess is finally determined.
To the extent that earlier payment is not required by the preceding provisions of this Section, the Company’s payment pursuant to this Section shall be made not later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the Participant remits the related taxes.
ARTICLE X
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Plan shall continue in force with respect to any Participant until the completion of any payments due hereunder.  The Company may, however, at any time, amend the Plan to provide that no additional benefits shall accrue with respect to any Participant under the Plan; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) deprive any Participant or Beneficiary of any benefit that accrued under the Plan before the adoption of such amendment; (ii) result in an acceleration of benefit payments in violation of Code Section 409A and the guidance thereunder, or (iii) result in any other violation of Section 409A or the guidance thereunder.  The Company may also, at any time, amend the Plan retroactively or otherwise, if and to the extent that it deems such action appropriate in light of government regulations or other legal requirements.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.01.  Obligations of the Company.  The only obligation of the Company or any Affiliated Employer hereunder shall be a contractual obligation to make payments to Participants, Spouses, or other Beneficiaries entitled to benefits provided for herein when due, and only to the extent that such payments are not made from the Trust.

Nothing contain herein shall confer any right on a Participant to be continued in the service of the Company or affect the Participant’s right to participate in and receive benefits under and in accordance with any pension, profit-sharing, incentive compensation, or other benefit plan or program of the Company or any Affiliated Employer.

Section 11.03.  Non-Alienation.  Except as otherwise required by a Domestic Relations Order, no right or interest of a Participant, Spouse, or other Beneficiary under this Plan shall be subject to voluntary or involuntary alienation, assignment, or transfer of any kind.

Section 11.04.  Tax Withholding.  The Company or the Trustee may withhold from any distribution hereunder amounts that the Company or the Trustee deems necessary to satisfy federal, state, or local tax withholding requirements (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company or Trustee with regard to such taxes).

Section 11.05.  Other Plans.  Amounts and benefits paid under the Plan shall not be considered compensation to the Participant for purposes of computing any benefits to which he may be entitled under any other pension or retirement plan maintained by the Company or any Affiliated Employer.

Section 11.06.  Liability of Affiliated Employers.  If any payment to be made under the Plan is to be made on account of a Participant who is or was employed by an Affiliated Employer, the cost of such payment shall be borne in such proportion as the Company and the Affiliated Employer agree.

	[For non-KESIP options] [This Option will vest on [____].] [For KESIP options][ This Option is immediately vested in full on the Grant Date.]

	The following conditions apply in the event that your employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated prior to the Expiration Date of this Option.  In no event, however, will the time periods described herein extend the term of this Option beyond its Expiration Date or beyond the date this Option is otherwise cancelled or terminates pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

a.        Termination As a Result of Death.  If your employment or service terminates by reason of your death (at a time when you could not have been terminated for Cause), then your estate or your beneficiary, or such other person or persons as may acquire your rights under this Option by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, may exercise this Option until the first anniversary of such termination of employment or service (or until such longer or shorter period as the Administrator may in its sole discretion determine).
