Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On July 10, 2018, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cummins Inc. (the “Company”) adopted and approved an amendment to the special meeting provisions of the Company’s By-Laws, as amended and restated (the “By-Laws”), to provide that the percentage of outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company required for shareholders to call a special meeting be reduced from not less than 25% to not less than 10% (the “Amendment”). The Board adopted and approved the Amendment in response to a shareholder proposal that received majority support at the May 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The Amendment restated Article I, Section 1.2(b) of the By-Laws in its entirety to read as follows:

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Section 1.2(b) and all other applicable sections of these By-Laws, a special meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation (the “Secretary”) upon written request (a “Special Meeting Request”) to the Secretary by one or more Eligible Holders (as defined below) representing not less than 10% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation (the “Requisite Percentage”); provided that only shares of capital stock that are determined to be “Net Long Shares” in accordance with this Section 1.2(b) shall be counted in determining whether the Eligible Holders requesting the meeting represent the Requisite Percentage.

The Amendment became effective upon Board approval on July 10, 2018. A copy of the Amendment, as well as the By-Laws, as amended and restated, are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
