Agreement</font></b></p>

<p style='margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black;text-indent:48.95pt'>
<font size="2">On November 9,
2012, Cummins Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) entered into a credit agreement (the &#147;New
Credit Agreement&#148;) by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries
(together with the Company, the &#147;Borrowers&#148;) and the lenders (the &#147;Lenders&#148;)
named therein.&nbsp; Under the New Credit Agreement, which will mature on November
9, 2017, the Borrowers may obtain revolving and swingline loans and letters of
credit, in each case subject to certain amount limitations, in an amount up to
$1.75 billion in the aggregate outstanding at any time prior to maturity.&nbsp;
These borrowings will not be secured with liens on any of the Company&#146;s or its
subsidiaries&#146; assets.&nbsp; The Company will guarantee all borrowings by the
subsidiary Borrowers under the New Credit Agreement. </font></p>

<p style='margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black;text-indent:48.95pt'>
<font size="2">Borrowings under
the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at varying rates, depending on the
type of loan and, in some cases, the rates of designated benchmarks and the
Borrower&#146;s election.&nbsp; For all borrowings under the New Credit Agreement,
Borrowers may choose among the following interest rates:&nbsp; (i) solely in the
case of U.S. dollar-denominated loans, an interest rate equal to (a) the
highest of (1) the rate of interest publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A. as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City, (2)
the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.5% and (3) the rate
payable on one-month deposits in the London interbank market plus 1.00% plus
(b) a rate ranging from 0.00% to 0.50%, depending on the credit rating of the
Company&#146;s senior unsecured long-term debt; (ii) an interest rate equal to the
&#147;Adjusted LIBO Rate&#148; plus a rate ranging from 0.75% to 1.50%, depending on the
credit rating of the Company&#146;s senior unsecured long-term debt; or (iii) solely
in the case of swingline loans, another rate agreed to by the applicable Lender
and the applicable Borrower. The Adjusted LIBO Rate is a rate determined by
reference to the rate payable on deposits in the relevant currency in the
London interbank market.&nbsp; Currently, the Company&#146;s senior unsecured long-term
debt is rated Baa1 by Moody&#146;s Investors Service, Inc., A by Standard &amp;
Poor&#146;s and A by Fitch Ratings, Ltd., which would result in a rate of 0.00%
under (b) above and 0.875% under (ii) above.&nbsp; Credit ratings are not
recommendations to buy and are subject to change, and each rating should be
evaluated independently of any other rating.&nbsp; In addition, the Company
undertakes no obligation to update disclosures concerning its credit ratings,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.</font></p>

<p style='margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black;text-indent:48.95pt'>
<font size="2">The New Credit
Agreement contains customary financial and other covenants.&nbsp; There are no
material relationships between the Company or its affiliates and any of the
Lenders, other than pursuant to the New Credit Agreement or the Prior Credit
Agreement (as defined below).&nbsp; The description of the New Credit Agreement set
forth above is qualified by reference to the Credit Agreement filed herewith as
Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.</font></p>

Agreement.&nbsp; Under the Prior Credit Agreement, which would have matured on July
16, 2014, the borrowers and lenders were able to enter into revolving and
swingline loans and issuances of letters of credit, in each case subject to
certain amount limitations, in an amount up to $1.24 billion in the aggregate outstanding
at any time prior to maturity.&nbsp; These borrowings were not secured with liens on
any of the Company&#146;s or its subsidiaries&#146; assets.&nbsp; The Prior Credit Agreement

Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement
On November 9,
2012, Cummins Inc. (the "Company") entered into a credit agreement (the "New
Credit Agreement") by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries
(together with the Company, the "Borrowers") and the lenders (the "Lenders")
named therein.  Under the New Credit Agreement, which will mature on November
9, 2017, the Borrowers may obtain revolving and swingline loans and letters of
credit, in each case subject to certain amount limitations, in an amount up to
$1.75 billion in the aggregate outstanding at any time prior to maturity. 
These borrowings will not be secured with liens on any of the Company's or its
subsidiaries' assets.  The Company will guarantee all borrowings by the
subsidiary Borrowers under the New Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under
the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at varying rates, depending on the
type of loan and, in some cases, the rates of designated benchmarks and the
Borrower's election.  For all borrowings under the New Credit Agreement,
Borrowers may choose among the following interest rates:  (i) solely in the
case of U.S. dollar-denominated loans, an interest rate equal to (a) the
highest of (1) the rate of interest publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A. as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City, (2)
the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.5% and (3) the rate
payable on one-month deposits in the London interbank market plus 1.00% plus
(b) a rate ranging from 0.00% to 0.50%, depending on the credit rating of the
Company's senior unsecured long-term debt; (ii) an interest rate equal to the
"Adjusted LIBO Rate" plus a rate ranging from 0.75% to 1.50%, depending on the
credit rating of the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt; or (iii) solely
in the case of swingline loans, another rate agreed to by the applicable Lender
and the applicable Borrower. The Adjusted LIBO Rate is a rate determined by
reference to the rate payable on deposits in the relevant currency in the
London interbank market.  Currently, the Company's senior unsecured long-term
debt is rated Baa1 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., A by Standard &
Poor's and A by Fitch Ratings, Ltd., which would result in a rate of 0.00%
under (b) above and 0.875% under (ii) above.  Credit ratings are not
recommendations to buy and are subject to change, and each rating should be
evaluated independently of any other rating.  In addition, the Company
undertakes no obligation to update disclosures concerning its credit ratings,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The New Credit
Agreement contains customary financial and other covenants.  There are no
material relationships between the Company or its affiliates and any of the
Lenders, other than pursuant to the New Credit Agreement or the Prior Credit
Agreement (as defined below).  The description of the New Credit Agreement set
forth above is qualified by reference to the Credit Agreement filed herewith as
Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1.02         Termination of a
Material Definitive Agreement
On November 9,
2012, the Credit Agreement, dated as of July 16, 2010, by and among the
Company, certain subsidiaries referred to therein and the lenders party thereto
(the "Prior Credit Agreement"), was terminated and replaced by the New Credit
Agreement.  Under the Prior Credit Agreement, which would have matured on July
16, 2014, the borrowers and lenders were able to enter into revolving and
swingline loans and issuances of letters of credit, in each case subject to
certain amount limitations, in an amount up to $1.24 billion in the aggregate outstanding
at any time prior to maturity.  These borrowings were not secured with liens on
any of the Company's or its subsidiaries' assets.  The Prior Credit Agreement
contained typical financial and other covenants.  There were no loans
outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement.
Item
2.03         Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under
an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
The disclosure
set forth under Item 1.01, "Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement," is
incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9.01        Financial Statements and Exhibits
(a)         Not applicable.
(b)         Not applicable.
