  The Board of Directors held five meetings during 1994. Except for Mr. Mead,
all of the directors attended 75% or more meetings of the Board and Committees
on which they served.
 
  The Board of Directors has established seven standing committees. The
functions performed by certain of these committees and the members of the Board
of Directors currently serving on these committees are as follows:
 
  Audit Committee. The members of the Audit Committee are D. S. Perkins
(Chairman), H. H. Gray, W. D. Ruckelshaus and J. L. Wilson. The Committee
reviews the accounting and auditing principles and procedures of the Company.
The Audit Committee reviews the scope, timing, and fees for the annual audit
and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and
independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the
system of accounting and internal controls. The Audit Committee met three times
during 1994.
 
  Compensation Committee. The members of the Compensation Committee are H. H.
Gray (Chairman), H. Brown, D. S. Perkins, W. D. Ruckelshaus and F. A. Thomas.
The Compensation Committee administers and determines eligibility for and makes
awards under the Company's stock option and other stock incentive plans. The
Committee also reviews and evaluates the Company's executive compensation
standards and practices, including salaries, bonus distributions, deferred
compensation practices and participation in stock purchase plans. The
Compensation Committee met five times during 1994.
 
  Nominating Committee. The members of the Nominating Committee are F. A.
Thomas (Chairman), H. H. Gray and D. S. Perkins. The Nominating Committee
reviews the membership of the Board of Directors and makes recommendations to
the Board as to its membership. This Committee will consider shareholders'
recommendations of nominees for election to the Board of Directors. Shareholder
recommendations, including biographical information as to the proposed
candidate and a statement from the shareholder as to the qualifications and
willingness of such person to serve on the Company's Board of Directors, must
be submitted in writing to the Secretary of the Company in accordance with the
procedures established in the Company's By-Laws. The Nominating Committee did
not meet during 1994.
 
  Executive Committee. The members of the Executive Committee are H. B. Schacht
(Chairman), J. A. Henderson, J. I. Miller and W. I. Miller. The Executive
Committee is authorized to exercise the powers of the Board of Directors in the
management and direction of
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
 
the business and affairs of the Company during the intervals between meetings
of the Board of Directors. The Executive Committee met two times during 1994.
 
  Other Committees. In addition to the Committees described above, the Board of
Directors has established the following committees: Pension Committee (F. A.
Thomas, Chairman, R. J. Darnall, D. G. Mead and W. I. Miller); Proxy Committee
(J. I. Miller, Chairman and F. A. Thomas); and Technology Committee (H. Brown,
Chairman; K. R. Dabrowski, W. Y. Elisha, J. I. Miller and T. M. Solso).
 
  Each director who is not an officer of the Company receives an annual fee of
$33,000, $27,000 of which is paid in cash and $6,000 of which is paid in the
form of restricted stock. Each non-officer director also receives $1,000 for
each special meeting of the Board of Directors attended. Committee chairmen
(other than the Nominating, Executive or Proxy Committee) receive an additional
annual fee of $9,000. Non-chair members of the Audit, Executive, Compensation,
Pension and Technology Committees receive an additional $6,000 fee for each
such Committee membership. Committee members also receive $1,000 for attending
a Committee meeting (other than a meeting of the Executive Committee) that is
not held in connection with a regular or special meeting of the Board of
Directors.
 
  As part of the Company's overall support of charitable and educational
institutions and as an aid in attracting and retaining qualified directors, the
Company has established the Cummins Engine Company Charitable Bequest Program
in which all directors participate. Upon the death of a director, the Company
will donate ten equal annual installments of $100,000 to one or more qualifying
institutions designated by such director, subject to certain vesting
requirements based upon years of service as a director. The Company has
purchased life insurance policies on each director, the proceeds of which fund
donations under the program. Directors will not receive any financial benefit
from the program since all charitable deductions accrue solely to the Company.
 
  Nominee Harold Brown has a consulting arrangement with the Company pursuant
to which he provides consulting services in connection with the Company's
research and development activities and related technology issues. During 1994,
the Company paid Dr. Brown $50,000 for these services. In addition, the Company
has established a Science and Technology Advisory Council on which Dr. Brown
serves as Chairman. The Council advises senior management and the Board of
Directors on the direction and implication of developments in science,
technology and environmental issues that may have applicability to the
Company's current and future business goals and objectives. For his services on
the Council, Dr. Brown is paid an annual retainer of $17,000, including $7,000
for serving as Chairman, and an additional fee of $3,000 for each day of
meetings attended during the year.
 
  Nominee Henry B. Schacht has a consulting arrangement with the Company in
order to retain, for the benefit of the Company, the knowledge and judgment of
Mr. Schacht in connection with strategic planning, business alliances and other
significant matters. Pursuant to the arrangement, Mr. Schacht will be available
to the Board and senior management for at least one week during each month. For
his services, he will be paid $250,000 per year. In the event more than twelve
weeks of services are required by the Company during any calendar year, he will
be paid additional compensation in direct proportion to his additional periods
of service. No amounts were paid to Mr. Schacht pursuant to this arrangement
during 1994.

  The Company has a deferred compensation plan for non-employee directors,
pursuant to which such directors may elect to defer receipt of all or any
portion of their compensation while they serve as a director of the Company.
Upon ceasing to be a director, the deferred compensation, plus accrued
interest, is paid to the director or the director's beneficiary in a lump sum
or in annual installments, not to exceed ten, as specified by the director.
Upon a change of control of the Company (as defined in the plan), such deferred
compensation and interest is paid in cash to the director in one lump sum.
 
  The Company also maintains a retirement plan for non-employee directors who
have no vested rights under any other pension plan sponsored by the Company and
who have served as a director for 5 or more years. Under the plan, annual
payments equal to the amount of fees (excluding Committee fees) paid or payable
for the final year of service are made to a former director each year for the
lesser of 20 years or the number of years served as a director. Upon a change
of control of the Company (as defined in the plan), the actuarial present value
of accrued but unpaid benefits will be distributed in one lump sum.
 
                             EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
                         COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
 
  The Compensation Committee Report is organized as follows:
 
  . Role of the Compensation Committee
 
  . Objectives and Principles
 
  . Compensation Program Elements
 
  . Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer
 
ROLE OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
 
  The Compensation Committee is made up of five members of the Board of
Directors of the Company, who are not current or former employees of the
corporation. The Committee has oversight responsibility for the Company's
executive compensation programs. The Committee reviews the general compensation
philosophy of the Company, the elements of the compensation program, the
specifics of each element, the goals and measurements used in the program, and
the results of the compensation program compared to the philosophy to determine
if the compensation program is performing as expected.
 
  In addition, the Committee reviews the individual levels and awards for each
of the five most highly paid officers and takes appropriate action. In its
review, the Committee has direct access to advice from professional executive
compensation consultants. The Committee also reviews its actions with the full
Board of Directors.
 
OBJECTIVES AND PRINCIPLES OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
  Cummins' executive compensation is designed to attract, motivate, and retain
the personnel required to achieve the Company's performance goals in the
competitive global business
 
                                       7

environment. The program is designed to reflect the individual's contribution
and the performance of the Company. The program attempts to strike an
appropriate balance between short-term and long-term performance.
 
  The Company is committed to the concept of pay for sustained financial
performance. We evaluate performance over several periods of time. While the
specific elements of executive compensation vary from time to time, the
Compensation Committee focuses on this central principle of pay for performance
in reviewing the compensation program, any proposed changes, and the specific
awards.
 
  The Committee follows several principles, in addition to pay for performance,
in designing and implementing compensation programs for its officers.
 
  . Programs should provide competitive compensation opportunity; the concept
    of opportunity is important in our program. We believe the executive
    should have the opportunity to do well if the Company does well, but that
    total compensation should vary in relation to the Company's performance.
 
  . An individual's compensation should be at the median of the range when
    compared to the compensation of individuals in U.S. industrial companies
    with sales volumes similar to Cummins, when Cummins' financial
    performance is at the median of those companies.
 
  . There should be a balance between short-term and long-term elements of
    compensation.
 
  . The more senior a person's position, the more the compensation should be
    "at risk", i.e., dependent on the performance of the Company.
 
  . Stock should be an important part of the program in order to link the
    management's compensation with shareholders' expectations; the greater
    the level of responsibility of the person, the more the compensation
    should be stock-based.
 
  . The system should be as simple and as easily understood as possible.
 
  . Payouts should not accumulate, causing large one-time payments.
 
  In addition to these principles, we have the following observations:
 
  .No single program accomplishes these aims consistently; a mix of programs
  is best.
 
  . There is no single best comparator of performance with other companies; a
    mix of comparators should be used.
 
  .In this complex area, relative simplicity seems the best that can be
  achieved.
 
  . There is no perfect program; change should be expected from time to time
    as the outcome of the Committee's periodic reviews.
 
  Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 162(m)") limits the
corporate tax deduction to one million dollars for compensation paid annually
to any one of the named executive officers in the proxy, unless the
compensation meets certain requirements. As indicated in last year's report,
the Committee intends to design the Company's compensation program to maximize
tax deductibility, while retaining flexibility and the ability to attract,
retain and motivate executives to achieve our business objectives. Because
regulations implementing this legislation are still in the proposal stage, some
uncertainty exists as to the requirements for qualifying compensation under
Section 162(m).
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
 
  As indicated below, the Base Salary of the named executive officers is set at
the median of the range of the salaries of individuals with similar positions
in companies of similar size to Cummins. The Committee intends to continue this
policy notwithstanding the enactment of Section 162(m). The Company is
proposing for shareholder approval under Section 162(m) (see pages 21 to 24
below) plans which implement the Committee's Short-Term and Medium-Term
compensation objectives while maintaining the tax deductibility of compensation
under these programs.
 
  The plans being proposed are similar to the plans already in effect, but
modified to conform with Section 162(m) requirements. The modifications are as
follows:
 
  . Participation is limited to the Chief Executive Officer and other
    executive officers designated by the Compensation Committee each year.
 
  . The Committee cannot increase a payout from the amount that would be
    payable based on the performance measures the Committee established for a
    payment period.
 
  . The Committee must certify the Company's performance in writing before
    any payout can be made.
 
  .There is a stated maximum payout that can be made to any participant.
 
  At present, the Committee does not propose to take action with respect to the
Company's 1992 Stock Incentive Plan. Stock options granted under the plan
already comply with Section 162(m) until 1997. And, the Committee believes the
stock ownership provided by restricted stock granted under the plan is
important in itself to link management's compensation with shareholders'
expectations.
 
COMPENSATION PROGRAM ELEMENTS
 
  The Company's executive compensation program consists of four elements: Base
Salary, Short-Term Bonus, Medium-Term compensation, and Long-Term compensation.
Each is designed to accomplish a somewhat different objective. In total, they
are designed to fulfill the Company's basic goals of linking pay to financial
performance and paying competitively. All officers participate in each element
of the program.
 
  We use survey data provided by our compensation consultants to determine
competitive levels of pay. These surveys include over 340 U.S. industrial
corporations (including the eleven companies that comprise the "Peer Group"
companies used in the Shareholder Return Performance Presentation on page 13 of
this Proxy Statement). Each element of pay described below is intended to
provide compensation for each position at the median of the amounts companies
of similar size in the survey would pay the same position.
 
1. Base Salary
 
  Base Salary is reviewed annually. It is the only fixed portion of the
executive's compensation. Base Salary is normally set at the median of the
range of the salaries of individuals with similar positions in companies of
similar size to Cummins.
 
2. Short-Term Bonus
 
  This element is designed to link executive pay to the short-term performance
of the Company. The payout is made quarterly, with the Payout Factor calculated
on a formula established by the
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
 
Committee and reviewed annually. Each person is assigned a participation rate
that is a percent of salary. The quarterly bonus is then determined as follows.
 
  (Short-Term Bonus) equals (Annual Base Salary) times (participation
  percentage assigned to each job) times (Payout Factor) times ( 1/4).
 
  Participation rates are based on the same survey data as base salaries and
are set at the median of the range for like positions in similarly-sized
companies.
 
  The Payout Factor for the quarterly bonus is set to yield a 1.0 Payout Factor
for Company financial performance that is at the median of the Fortune 500
industrial companies measured over recent history. In 1994, return on equity
was the measure used to compare performance. Return on equity levels are
converted to equivalent return on sales levels for use in the Payout Factor
formula. In determining the return on sales level equivalent to the market
median return on equity to establish the 1.0 Payout Factor point for the Short-
Term Bonus Plan for 1994, we used a full corporate tax rate, not taking credit
for tax loss carryforwards.
 
  When the Company's performance is less than the median, the quarterly bonus
pays less than 1.0--and does not pay at all if the Company is not profitable.
When the Company's performance exceeds the median, the quarterly Payout Factor
is greater than 1.0 and compensation is greater than the median of those
companies included in our surveys.
 
  In order to comply with the requirements of Section 162 (m), a modified
version of the Short-Term Bonus Plan, called the Senior Executive Bonus Plan,
is being submitted to shareholders for approval. The Senior Executive Bonus
Plan will cover the CEO and other executive officers designated from time to
time by the Compensation Committee. For a further description of this Plan, see
page 22 below.
 
 3. Medium-Term: Three Year Performance Plan
 
  The Three Year Performance Plan measures Cummins' performance versus the Peer
Group companies over a rolling three-year cycle. For each three-year Award
Cycle, a Target Award is granted to each participant, expressed as a dollar
amount.
 
  The Committee establishes performance guidelines to determine the portion of
the granted amount to be paid for each three-year Award Cycle. A new Award
Cycle begins each year, hence payout opportunity is annual. The first payout
under this program will be in 1995. The performance measure for Award Cycles
ending before 1997 is return on equity. The Committee establishes a scale of
multiples of the Target Award to be paid for various levels of Company
performance over each Award Cycle. The plan pays the full granted amount if
Cummins' performance (based on the applicable performance measure) is equal to
the median of the Peer Group companies over the three-year cycle. A portion or
multiple of the granted amount is paid if three-year performance is less or
greater than the median of these companies, based on a scale established by the
Committee. The maximum that can be paid is two times the Target Award for
performance that is twice the median of the Peer Companies.
 
  In order to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m), a modified
version of the Three Year Performance Plan is being submitted to shareholders
for approval. The new Plan will cover
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
 
the CEO and other executive officers designated from time to time by the
Compensation Committee. The Plan will be effective for Award Cycles beginning
in 1995 and thereafter. For a further description of the Plan, see pages 22 and
23 later in this proxy statement.
 
 4. Long-Term: The 1992 Cummins Stock Incentive Plan
 
  In December 1992, 1993, and 1994 restricted stock and stock options were
granted to officers under the 1992 Cummins Stock Incentive Plan. Restrictions
on the restricted stock will lapse on one-third of each grant annually,
beginning two years and one month from the date of each grant. The stock
options expire ten years from grant, but cannot be exercised for the first two
years.
 
  Grant amounts under the Medium-Term and Long-Term plan elements are set to
provide total compensation opportunity at the median of that provided by
similarly-sized U.S. industrial companies in our survey base, when combined
with Base Salary and Short-Term Bonus. The Committee reviews the proportion of
total compensation that is dependent on Company performance in determining the
allocation of the compensation opportunity among each of the Medium-Term and
Long-Term plan elements for each position. More senior positions have a larger
proportion of total compensation opportunity dependent on Company performance
than do less senior positions.
 
  The Medium-Term and Long-Term plans described above were adopted in 1992,
following a review of the executive compensation program by the Committee. They
replaced the Five Year Performance Plan and the Performance Share Plan. The
Five Year Performance Plan compared the Company's return on equity to the Peer
Group companies over a five-year plan cycle. No payouts were made under that
plan for the Award Cycles ending 1987-1992. The final payout under the Plan was
made in 1994 for the five-year cycle ending 1993. Under the Performance Share
Plan, grants of restricted stock were made to the named executive officers in
1987. For the individual to earn the shares, the Company had to achieve profit-
after-tax levels approved annually by the Committee and the Board. Once earned,
actual distribution of shares to the individual was deferred over specific time
periods. All of the remaining deferred shares were distributed in January, 1995
and are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table for 1994.
 
COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
 
  Henry Schacht was Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board until
July 12, 1994, when he relinquished the CEO position, remaining as Chairman of
the Board. James Henderson became CEO on that date.
 
  Approximately one-third of the CEO's annualized total compensation
opportunity is fixed Base Salary. Two-thirds of the total is based on Company
performance, assuming median Company financial performance. When the Company's
performance is better than the median, the variable compensation elements pay
more and comprise a larger portion of the total. When the Company's performance
is less than median, the variable elements pay less and comprise a smaller
proportion of the total.
 
  The Base Salary and Short-Term Bonus participation rate of the CEO are set at
the median of our survey companies specifically as described under the Base
Salary and Short-Term Bonus sections appearing earlier in this report.
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
 
  The Company substantially exceeded market median financial performance in
1994, and the Short-Term Bonus payouts reflect this performance.
 
  The final portion of the Performance Share Plan grant made in 1987 was earned
based on 1993 financial performance. This final portion was approximately 25.4%
of the original number of shares granted. Based on the payout schedule
established at grant, one-sixth of the CEO's earned total grant was deferred
and distributed in January, 1995.
 
  In December, 1994 the CEO received grants of restricted stock and stock
options under the Long-Term 1992 Stock Incentive Plan, as well as a Target
Award (payable in 1997) under the Medium-Term Three Year Performance Plan. This
was the third set of grants under these Plans. The Committee intends to make
grants annually.
 
  In determining grant amounts for the CEO, as explained earlier, the Committee
set the total of the four elements of the executive compensation program--Base
Salary, Short-Term Bonus, Medium-Term Plan, and the Long-Term Plan--to provide
annualized compensation opportunity to the CEO equal to the median of the range
of total compensation opportunity provided for CEOs by the survey companies
described earlier in this report.
 
  The Committee reviews the CEO's performance annually, based on how well the
Company is implementing its business strategy and achieving its business
objectives, both short-term and long-term. This review considers both
quantitative and qualitative performance matters, and is a key factor in
setting the CEO's compensation.
 
  We hope this general discussion and the following tables and graphs help you
understand the Company's executive compensation philosophy and program.

(1) Pursuant to the Corporation's 1992 Stock Incentive Plan, a total of 58,950
    shares of Restricted Stock were granted in 1994, having a total value at
    date of grant of $2,549,588. Shares are restricted for two years and one
    month subsequent to grant, then are vested in 1/3 annual increments in
    years 3 through 5 subsequent to grant, if the participant remains an
    employee of the Company. Dividends will be paid on these shares. As of

(1) No shares, units or other rights were awarded in the last fiscal year. The
    Company has made targeted dollar awards under its Three Year Performance
    Plan with payouts tied to Company performance over a rolling three-year
    cycle, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
    Directors. The Committee establishes performance measures as guidelines.
    For the 1994-1996 Award Cycle (payable in 1997) the performance guidelines
    are tied to achieving certain levels of return on equity (ROE) compared to
    the Peer Group companies. The Target Award will be earned if the Company's
    ROE is equal to the median ROE of the Peer Group companies. The Threshold
    Payment will be earned if the Company's ROE is 50% of the Peer Group
    companies' median. The Maximum Payment is earned if the Company's ROE is
    200% of the Peer Group companies' ROE.

Schacht in the amount of $75,000 per year.
 
                         CHANGE OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
 
  The Company will provide benefits to certain executives in the event of a
change of control of the Company. Such employees would be entitled to one
year's salary plus four quarterly bonus payments. The Company will also provide
for the full vesting of certain insurance and retirement
 
                                       17

benefits and the continuation in effect for a one-year severance period of
certain other employee benefits. In addition, the Company's retirement plans
will allocate any actuarial surplus assets to fund increased pension benefits,
stock options previously granted will become fully exercisable, and certain
long-term incentive plan awards will be paid in cash based on the completed
portions of award cycles then in progress. The value of supplemental and excess
retirement annuity benefits will also be paid in cash.
 
  Benefits for and rights of the persons who served as Chief Executive Officer
and the three other most highly compensated executive officers during 1994
would be affected under these provisions. A change of control for these
purposes is defined in each of the various plans and programs providing these
benefits.

     OTHER TRANSACTIONS AND AGREEMENTS WITH DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND CERTAIN
                                  SHAREHOLDERS
 
Investment Agreements With Certain Shareholders
 
  On July 16, 1990, the Company entered into (i) the Ford Investment Agreement,
pursuant to which, among other things, in consideration of $100,000,000
received from Ford, Ford was issued one share of a newly created series of the
Company's Preference Stock, designated Convertible Preference Stock, Series F
(the "Series F Preference Stock"), which Series F Preference Stock was
convertible into 1,600,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and (ii) the
Tenneco Investment Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, in
consideration of $100,000,000 received from Tenneco, Tenneco was issued one
share of a newly created series of the Company's Preference Stock, designated
Convertible Preference Stock, Series T (the "Series T Preference Stock"), which
Series T Preference Stock was convertible into 1,600,000 shares of Common
Stock. On September 12, 1990, the shares of Series F and T Preference Stock
were converted into 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock each for Ford and Tenneco,
respectively.
 
  On July 16, 1990, the Company entered into the Ford Stock Option Agreement
pursuant to which, among other things, for a six year period Ford has an option
(the "Option") to purchase 2,961,404 shares of Common Stock, subject to
adjustment for various actions that Ford or the Company may or may not take, at
a price per share equal to the higher of (x) $62.50 per share
 
                                       18
<PAGE>
 
and (y) 120% of the market price at the time of exercise of the Option
thereunder. The option price and number of shares subject to the Option may be
adjusted to reflect certain changes in the Company's capitalization and other
purchases of voting securities by Ford. The impact of these provisions may be
to adjust the exercise price and amount of voting securities Ford would be
permitted to acquire pursuant to the Option.
 
  On December 29, 1993, pursuant to a Consent and Amendment to the Tenneco
Investment Agreement, the Company consented to Tenneco's transfer of all of its
shares of the Company's Common Stock to the Tenneco Inc. General Employee
Benefit Trust (the "GEBT"). Under the Consent and Amendment, all of Tenneco's
rights and obligations under the Tenneco Investment Agreement were assigned to
and assumed by the GEBT.
 
  Each of Ford and the GEBT, pursuant to their respective rights under the
Investment Agreements, is entitled to designate one person (reasonably
satisfactory to the Company) for election to the Board. Ford is presently
entitled to designate at least one such person, and may in the future be
entitled to designate more, depending upon and in proportion to its percentage
ownership in the Company. In the event Ford owns at least 20% of the Company's
outstanding voting securities, it is entitled to designate a minimum of two
directors. The GEBT's right to designate a person for election to the Board
will be exercised by an investment manager pursuant to a direction from the
Investment Committee of the GEBT, provided that the investment manager may
decline to nominate the person who the Investment Committee directs it to
designate if such manager determines that its fiduciary duties under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 requires it to do so. Neither
Ford nor the GEBT will be entitled to designate any persons for election to the
Board if its respective percentage ownership of the voting power of the
Company's voting securities drops to below 10% as a result of the transfer of
voting securities. Messrs. Dabrowski and Mead have been nominated to serve as
directors of the Company pursuant to the Ford and Tenneco Investment
Agreements, respectively. See director nominee table on page 3.
 
  The term of each Investment Agreement is until the earliest of (i) the later
of six years and the first date on which the respective Investor ceases to
beneficially own voting securities representing at least 5% of the total voting
power of all then outstanding voting securities, and (ii) ten years; provided,
however, that certain provisions of the respective Investment Agreements will
explicitly survive their stated terms. Among the provisions which survive
termination of the agreement are the registration rights and share transfer
restrictions set forth in the Investment Agreement.
 
Other Transactions and Arrangements
 
  Ford Motor Company and its affiliates purchase diesel engines, diesel engine
parts and related products from the Company. The Company reimburses certain of
Ford's warranty costs associated with these products and also purchases
gasoline engines and parts from Ford. During 1994, Ford paid the Company
approximately $356,200,000 and the Company paid Ford approximately $8,500,000
in connection with such transactions. Purchases of product on open account were
made on terms generally available to unaffiliated third parties at prices
determined through arms-length negotiation based upon market conditions and
other factors. The terms of sale for midrange engines to Ford and the pricing
for these products are governed by the Company's midrange engine supply
agreement with Ford.

  Case Corporation and other subsidiaries of Tenneco Inc. purchase heavy-duty
and midrange diesel engines, components, service parts and related products and
services from the Company and its affiliates and the Company purchases engine
parts and components from Case. In 1994, Case and other Tenneco subsidiaries
paid the Company approximately $39,900,000 and the Company paid Case
approximately $800,000 for such purchases. In addition, a subsidiary of Case
and a subsidiary of the Company are partners in a joint venture which
manufactures midrange diesel engines for Case and the Company. Pursuant to the
partnership agreements, Case pays the Company for technical support and engine
order management services, and the Company pays Case for utilizing Case's
surplus joint venture manufacturing capacity. During 1994, Case paid the
Company approximately $5,100,000 and the Company paid Case approximately
$2,300,000 pursuant to such agreements. Purchases from the Company were made on
terms generally available to unaffiliated third parties at prices determined
through arms-length negotiation based upon market conditions and other factors.
Case's purchases from the Case-Cummins joint venture, and the prices paid for
such purchases, are governed by the terms of the joint venture agreements.
 
  During 1994, the Company had agreements with companies owned or controlled by
Mr. J. I. Miller, whereby the Company leased office space from and shared the
expense of dining room and food services with such companies. The net amount
paid by the Company was $151,474. The Company believes such amount is
competitive with the amount that it would have paid to unrelated third parties
for comparable space and services.
 
  Pursuant to the Company's 1977 and 1986 Stock Option Plans and its Key
Employee Stock Investment Plan, certain officers have exercised options and
purchased shares of Common Stock of the Company on an installment basis. The
interest rate on these loans is the minimum annual rate permitted under the
Internal Revenue Code without imputation of income. The following table shows,
as to those executive officers and directors of the Company who were indebted
to the Company in excess of $60,000 since January 1, 1994, the largest
aggregate amount owed for such purchases and loans at any time since January 1,
1994, and the amount owed as of January 31, 1995:

  The Company has a policy of purchasing from employees of the Company shares
of Common Stock of the Company that have been acquired under the Key Employee
Stock Investment Plan and the 1977 and 1986 Stock Options Plans. The purchase
price for such shares is the closing price quoted on the New York Stock
Exchange Composite Tape on the date of purchase. During 1994, no executive

                  SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
                                    (ITEM 2)
 
  The Board of Directors has voted to appoint Arthur Andersen LLP as the firm
of independent public accountants to audit the accounts of the Company for the
year 1995. Arthur Andersen LLP has acted as independent public accountants for
the Company since 1952. Although the selection and appointment of independent
public accountants is not required to be submitted to a vote of the
shareholders, the Board of Directors has decided, as in the past, to ask the
Company's shareholders to ratify the appointment. A representative of Arthur
Andersen LLP will be present, will have the opportunity to make a statement and
will be available to answer appropriate questions at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders.
 
  The proposal to ratify the appointment of Arthur Andersen LLP as the firm of
independent public accountants to audit the accounts of the Company for the
year 1995 will be adopted if the number of votes cast in favor of ratification
exceeds the number of votes cast against ratification. Votes cast against and
abstentions on the Item will be counted as votes against the Item. Broker non-
votes will not change the number of votes cast for or against the Item. If the
shareholders do not ratify the selection of Arthur Andersen LLP, the selection
of independent public accountants will be determined by the Audit Committee and
the Board of Directors after careful consideration of all information submitted
by shareholders.
 
  The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote FOR this Proposal.
 
  SENIOR EXECUTIVE BONUS PLAN AND SENIOR EXECUTIVE THREE YEAR PERFORMANCE PLAN
 
                                (ITEMS 3 AND 4)
 
  The Company has maintained the Target Bonus Plan ("TBP") and the Three Year
Performance Plan ("TYPP") as integral parts of its compensation program for
officers and key employees for several years. The Board of Directors is
submitting the Senior Executive Bonus Plan ("SEBP"), a version of the TBP, and
the Senior Executive Three Year Performance Plan ("SETYPP"), a version of the
TYPP, both applicable only to certain of the Company's executive officers, to
shareholders for approval in order to enable the Company to qualify payments
under the SEBP and SETYPP as deductible for federal income tax purposes. The
TBP and TYPP continue in effect for other officers and employees.
 
  In 1993, the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") was amended to add Section
162(m), which places a limit of $1,000,000 on the amount of compensation that
may be deducted by the Company in any tax year with respect to certain of the
Company's highest paid executive officers. However, certain performance based
compensation that has been approved by shareholders is not subject to the
deduction limit. In order to maximize the deduction under new Section 162(m) of
compensation paid to these officers, the Company is requesting that
shareholders approve the SEBP and SETYPP (collectively the "Plans"). Incentive
payments under the Plans are based on objective Company performance criteria
established prior to or shortly after the beginning of the period for which
such payments are earned. The Plans are not intended to change the amount of
incentive compensation opportunity currently available to any of the Company's
officers.
 
                                       21
<PAGE>
 
  The full texts of the SEBP and SETYPP appear as Exhibits A and B to this
proxy statement respectively. The principal features of each plan are
summarized below and should be read in conjunction with those exhibits.
 
SENIOR EXECUTIVE BONUS PLAN
 
  The SEBP is designed to pay quarterly bonuses based on the Company's
operating performance. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and other
executive officers designated by the Compensation Committee during any fiscal
year will participate in the plan for that year. The plan is administered by
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The current members of
the Compensation Committee are listed on page 5. Prior to or shortly after the
beginning of the first quarter of each fiscal year, the Committee will
determine which of the executive officers are to participate for the fiscal
year, the participation or award rate established as a percentage of the
participant's quarterly base salary, and the performance measures applicable to
each quarter during the year. Performance measures are based on return on
equity, return on sales, net income, sales growth, return on assets, and/or
total shareholder return.
 
  A quarterly bonus is determined by multiplying (i) the participant's
quarterly base salary times (ii) the participation or award rate times (iii) a
payout factor established by the Committee. The payout factor is targeted to be
1.0 if the Company's business performance, based on one or more of the criteria
listed above, is at the median of Fortune 500 industrial companies over recent
history. The Committee establishes the payout schedule annually based upon the
business criteria it selects as the measurement of performance.
 
  At the end of each quarter, the Committee reviews the Company's performance
against the selected criteria. When the Company's performance against the
selected criteria is below the median performance level, the payout factor is
less than 1.0, resulting in a lower quarterly bonus, and when performance
exceeds the median, the factor is greater than 1.0, resulting in a higher
bonus. The maximum quarterly bonus payable to any participant is $750,000.
Bonus payments may only be made after the Committee has certified the Company's
performance in writing. The Committee may reduce but not increase the amount of
any bonus otherwise payable to a participant upon attainment of the performance
measures. Bonus payments are made in cash as soon as practicable following the
end of the quarter in which they are earned.
 
  The Committee may, in its discretion, administer the plan in a manner that
measures and makes payments with respect to the Company's annual, rather than
quarterly performance.
 
SENIOR EXECUTIVE THREE YEAR PERFORMANCE PLAN
 
  The purpose of the SETYPP is to reward participating executive officers of
the Company for the attainment of specified corporate performance goals during
successive three fiscal year periods. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and
other executive officers designated by the Compensation Committee during any
fiscal year will participate in the plan. This plan is also administered by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Prior to or shortly after the
beginning of each three year award cycle, the Committee establishes a
threshold, target and maximum dollar award payable in cash to each participant
at the end of the three year period and the performance measures to be used in
determining the extent to which that award will be earned. Performance measures
are based on one or more business criteria specified in the plan.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
 
These business criteria are return on equity, return on sales, net income,
sales growth, return on assets, and/or total shareholder return. Under the
SETYPP, the Committee has the option to pay awards based on the attainment of
one or more different performance measures provided the measures, when
established, are stated as alternatives to one another.
 
  The target dollar amount will be earned by the participant if the performance
measures used by the Committee equal the median of such measures when applied
to the peer group of companies listed in connection with the shareholder return
graph on page 13. The threshold dollar amount will be earned if performance is
50% and the maximum dollar amount will be earned if performance is 200% of the
median for the peer group. The maximum dollar amount that may be paid under the
Plan to a participant with respect to any three year award cycle is $2,000,000.
Award payments may only be made following the Committee's written certification
of the Company's performance against the measures. As with the SEBP, the
Committee may reduce but not increase the amount of any award otherwise
payable.
 
  Participants whose employment with the Company is terminated by retirement,
death or disability during any three year award cycle are entitled to receive
all or a portion of the award otherwise payable, based upon their length of
employment during the cycle. Participants whose employment is terminated for
other reasons may receive a portion of the award, solely in the discretion of
the Committee.
 
BENEFITS UNDER THE PLANS
 
  Benefits payable under the Plans will vary depending on the Company's
performance against the selected business criteria. However, the following
table sets forth the dollar amounts which would have been received under the
SEBP and SETYPP had the Plans been in effect during the Company's last fiscal
year.

FEDERAL TAX ISSUES AND OTHER INFORMATION
 
  Awards under the Plans constitute ordinary income taxable to a participant in
the year in which paid. Subject to Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations
thereunder, the Company generally will be entitled to a corresponding deduction
for the year to which bonuses under the Plans relate. As mentioned above, 1993
amendments to the Code limit the allowable deduction for compensation paid or
accrued with respect to the chief executive officer and the four other most
highly compensated officers of a publicly held corporation at the end of each
fiscal year (commencing with fiscal years beginning on or after January 1,
1994) to no more than $1,000,000 per year. Pursuant to proposed Internal
Revenue Service regulations issued in December 1993, as amended in December
1994, certain types of compensation are excluded from this deduction limit,
including payments subject to the attainment of objective performance measures
and satisfaction of disinterested director and shareholder approval
requirements.
 
  Awards under the Plans meet the performance-based compensation requirement
because the amounts are paid upon meeting the performance measures based on
objective business criteria established by the Committee for each fiscal year,
in the case of the SEBP, and for each three year award cycle, in the case of
the SETYPP. The Plans' administration by the Compensation Committee, as limited
by provisions in the Plans governing the Committee's discretion in making
awards to participants, meets the second requirement. The submission of the
Plans to shareholders for approval and the Plans' provisions (i) limiting
maximum awards, and (ii) precluding the Committee from exercising discretion to
increase awards to participants are intended to qualify payments made under the
SEBP during 1995 and subsequent years and under the SETYPP for the 1995-1997
Award Cycle (and award cycles thereafter) so as to preserve the Company's tax
deductions, if and when awards are paid under the Plans.
 
  The Board of Directors believes that the Plans effectively motivate the
officers to perform and exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company
and make a large part of their total compensation dependent on objective
business and performance based criteria.
 
  The Board recommends a vote FOR approval of the Plans. Item 3 and Item 4 will
be approved if the number of votes cast in favor of each Item exceeds the
number of votes cast against the Item. Votes cast against and absentions on the
Item will be counted as votes against the Item. Broker non-votes will not
change the number of votes cast for or against the Item.
 
                                 OTHER BUSINESS
 
  The Board of Directors does not know of any business to be presented for
action at the meeting other than that set forth in Items 1-4 of the Notice of
Annual Meeting of Shareholders. However, if other business properly comes
before the Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the
returned proxies as the Board of Directors recommends.

                         Dr. Brown received an A.B. in 1945, an A.M. in 1946
                         and a Ph.D.
                         in Physics in 1949, all from Columbia University.
                         From 1947 to 1952, he taught and held research
                         positions at Columbia, the Stevens Institute of
                         Technology and the University of California at

                          CUMMINS ENGINE COMPANY, INC.
                          SENIOR EXECUTIVE BONUS PLAN
 
  1. Purpose. The Senior Executive Bonus Plan is designed to (i) reinforce the
financial objectives of the Company in the minds of senior executives, (ii)
attain and maintain a leadership position for the Company in its method of
compensating its senior executives consistent with the relative size of the
Company, the industry in which the Company competes, and the relative
performance of its senior executives, (iii) recognize the performance of the
Company as a whole, maximizing the contributions of the Company's various
businesses, and (iv) reward both team and individual performance. The Plan is
an incentive plan providing compensation that varies with the financial results
of the Company.
 
  2. Philosophy. Bonus payments should relate to the importance of the
executive's position in influencing Company performance, the financial
performance of the Company during a Quarter, and the performance of the
individual during that Quarter. Bonus payments should encourage and promote
outstanding decisions and efforts by senior executives for the benefit of the
Company.
 
  3. Definitions.
 
    (a) "Base Salary" means the salary paid to a Participant during a
  Quarter, exclusive of allowances, incentive pay, reimbursed expenses,
  fringe benefits and other similar forms of payment.
 
    (b) "Compensation Committee" or "Committee" means the Compensation
  Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
 
    (c) "Company" means Cummins Engine Company, Inc.
 
    (d) "Participant" means the Company's Chief Executive Officer and other
  executive officers designated by the Compensation Committee.
 
    (e) "Performance Measure" means the Company's return on equity, return on
  sales, net income, sales growth, return on assets, total shareholder
  return, or a combination thereof.
 
    (f) "Plan" means the Senior Executive Bonus Plan described herein.
 
    (g) "Plan Year" means the Company's fiscal year; provided, however, that
  the first Plan Year includes only three Quarters beginning April 3, 1995.
 
    (h) "Quarter" means a fiscal quarter of the Company.
 
    (i) "Target Bonus" means an incentive bonus amount described in section 7
  of the Plan.
 
    (j) "Target Bonus Percentage" means a percentage of the Participant's
  Base Salary intended to be paid as a Target Bonus under the Plan.
 
  4. Eligibility. The Compensation Committee shall designate the Participants
each Plan Year and establish the Target Bonus Percentage applicable to each
Participant. The Committee shall have the power to change the Target Bonus
Percentage of a Participant or remove one or more
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
 
Participants from the Plan; provided, however, that the percentage shall not be
increased following the commencement of any period for which a Target Bonus may
be earned.
 
  5. Target Bonus Percentage. On or before the 20th day of each Quarter during
which a Target Bonus may be earned, each Participant will be informed of his or
her applicable Target Bonus Percentage. The Target Bonus Percentage assigned to
each Participant by the Committee shall be based on various criteria applicable
to the Participant including, but not limited to (i) the scope and breadth of
the Participant's management position, (ii) opportunity for independent thought
and action, (iii) effect on the Company's financial performance, (iv) role in
decision-making, (v) working relationships within the Company, and (vi) the
level of compensation prevailing in the industry in which the Company competes.
 
  6. Bonus Payout Schedule. On or before the 20th day of each Plan Year, a
Bonus Payout Schedule will be calculated by the Committee and communicated to
Participants. The Bonus Payout Schedule will specify the Performance Measure
and the performance level against the measure during the Quarter required to
achieve each payout factor ("Bonus Factor"). The "Target Performance" is that
performance which provides a 1.0 Bonus Factor.
 
  7. Target Bonus. A Target Bonus is calculated for each Participant by
multiplying Base Salary times the Target Bonus Percentage designated for the
Participant.
 
  8. Earned Bonus. Corporate performance during the Quarter in excess of the
Target Performance or performance less than the Target Performance will result
in an increased or diminished bonus, respectively, from the Target Bonus
communicated to the Participant. The "Earned Bonus" will be calculated by
multiplying the Target Bonus Percentage times the Participant's Base Salary
times the Bonus Factor associated with the actual performance for that Quarter
as specified in the Bonus Payout Schedule in effect for the Plan Year
containing the Quarter. In no event may a Participant receive an Earned Bonus
for any Quarter in excess of $750,000.
 
  9. Change in Accounting Standards. For purposes of determining the Bonus
Factor, the Company's actual performance under the Performance Measure will
exclude extraordinary charges and credits which result from a change in
accounting standards of the Company.
 
  10. Adjustment for Individual Performance. The Earned Bonus will be the bonus
paid, except in unusual circumstances where poor individual performance
justifies a reduced bonus.
 
  11. Termination of Employment. During any Quarter that a Participant's
employment is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated, including termination
due to death, disability or retirement, the amount of the Earned Bonus for that
Quarter will be paid to the Participant or his or her legal representative or
estate, whichever is applicable.
 
  12. Bonus Distribution Date. Any Earned Bonus will be distributed as soon as
practicable following the determination of actual performance and written
certification by the Compensation Committee that the performance level with
respect to a bonus payable to the Participant has been met. In general, the
Earned Bonus will be distributed approximately six (6) weeks following the end
of the Quarter in which earned; provided, however, payments under the Plan may
be deferred pursuant to the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan.

  13. Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation
Committee. No member of the Committee shall be eligible to receive a bonus
under this Plan while serving on the Committee. The Committee shall have
authority to interpret the Plan and to establish, amend and rescind rules and
regulations for the administration of the Plan, and all such interpretations,
rules and regulations shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee
may impose such conditions on participation in and bonuses under the Plan as it
deems appropriate.
 
  14. Optional Administration as Annual Plan. The Plan is designed to operate
primarily as a quarterly plan, measuring Company performance and paying Target
Bonuses on the basis of quarterly results. From time-to-time, however, the
Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine it wishes to measure
performance and pay Target Bonuses on the basis of a Plan Year. In the event
such a determination is made, all references contained in this Plan to the term
"Quarter" shall be deemed to mean "Plan Year" as the context requires, and the
maximum Earned Bonus referenced in section 8 of the Plan shall be increased to
$3,000,000.
 
  15. Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective for Quarters beginning April
3, 1995, subject to its approval by the Company's shareholders.
 
  16. Amendment and Termination. The Board of Directors may at any time amend,
modify, alter or terminate this Plan.
 
  17. Governing Law. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken
pursuant hereto, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana and
construed accordingly.
 
  18. Miscellaneous. There shall be no bonus pool or cumulative bonus pool.
This Plan is based upon the number of Participants, the Target Bonus
Percentages, the Bonus Factors and the Base Salaries of the Participants.

                  SENIOR EXECUTIVE THREE YEAR PERFORMANCE PLAN
 
  1. Objectives. The objectives of the Plan are to (i) serve as a balance

of the Company, (ii) emphasize the medium-term performance of the Company as
compared to its industry competitors, (iii) strengthen the relationship between

    (j) "Target Award" means the amount of targeted compensation described in
  section 3 of the Plan.
 
  3. Target Award. The Committee shall assign each Participant a Target Award
for each Award Cycle, in its discretion, based upon, but not limited to, the
scope and breadth of the Participant's position, ability to effect the
Company's medium-term financial performance, and his or her working
relationships within the Company. The Target Award for an Award Cycle shall be
expressed in terms of a threshold, target, and maximum dollar amount.
 
  The Target Award for each Award Cycle shall be assigned and communicated to
each Participant as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than
the 270th day of that Award Cycle. Target Awards may be changed during the
course of an Award Cycle based on the Committee's reevaluation of the criteria
described in the preceding paragraph; provided however, a Target Award shall
not be increased following commencement of the Award Cycle.
 
  4. Payout Schedule. On or before the 270th day of each Award Cycle, the
Committee shall establish the Performance Measures to be used in determining a
Payout Factor applicable to the Award Cycle. The Committee may determine the
Payout Factor based upon the attainment of one or more different Performance
Measures, provided the measures, when established, are stated as alternatives
to one another.
 
  Under the Payout Factor schedule, the targeted dollar amount ("Targeted
Amount") of a Target Award will be earned by a Participant if the Company's
performance against the
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
 
Performance Measures equals the median of the performance of the Peer Group
during the same period against the same measures. The threshold dollar amount
will be earned if performance is fifty percent (50%) and the maximum dollar
amount will be earned if performance is two hundred percent (200%) of the
median performance of the Peer Group. The maximum dollar amount that may be
paid by the Plan to a Participant with respect to any Award Cycle is
$2,000,000.
 
  5. Change in Accounting Standards. For purposes of determining the Payout
Factor, the Company's actual performance under the Performance Measures will
exclude extraordinary charges and credits which result from a change in
accounting standards of the Company.
 
  6. Plan Payments. Any payout under the Plan will be made as soon as
practicable following audits of the Company's financial statements applicable
to all fiscal years of the Award Cycle and written certification by the
Committee of attainment of the applicable Performance Measures and
corresponding Payout Factor. Payments under the Plan may be deferred pursuant
to the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan.
 
  7. Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation
Committee. No member of the Committee shall be eligible for a Target Award
while serving on the Committee. The Committee shall have authority to interpret
the Plan and to establish, amend and rescind rules and regulations for the
administration of the Plan, and all such interpretations, rules and regulations
shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may impose such conditions
on participation in, awards under and payments from the Plan as it deems
appropriate.
 
  8. Termination of Employment. If a Participant's employment with the Company
terminates during the first year of an Award Cycle, other than by reason of
retirement, death or disability, the Participant will not receive any payout
for that Award Cycle. If a Participant's employment so terminates during the
second or third years of an Award Cycle, the Committee, in its discretion,
shall determine whether the Participant will receive a proportionate payout of
any payment with respect to the Award Cycle based on the period of employment
during the cycle.
 
  If a Participant retires, dies or become disabled during an Award Cycle, the
Participant or such Participant's estate, as the case may be, shall receive a
proportionate share of any payment with respect to the Award Cycle based on the
period of employment during the cycle, regardless of the length of time of such
employment.
 
  9. Change of Control. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the
contrary, in the event of a Change of Control, an amount shall be immediately
payable from the Plan to each Participant equal to the Targeted Amount times a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Award Cycle
preceding the Change of Control and the denominator of which is 1095.
 
  10. Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective for the Award Cycle beginning
January 1, 1995, subject to its approval by the Company's shareholders.
 
  11. Amendment and Termination. The Board of Directors of the Company may at
any time amend, modify, alter or terminate this Plan.
 
  12. Governing Law. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken
pursuant hereto, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana and
construed accordingly.

Dear Fellow Employee:
 
  As a shareholder of Cummins stock, you are receiving today the Annual Report
to Shareholders, Proxy Statement and Proxy Card. In addition to other Cummins
shares you may own, you are a shareholder of Cummins stock through your
participation in the Cummins Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") or Cummins
Stock Fund ("CSF") portions of the Cummins Retirement and Savings Plan or both.
 
  Each year, shareholders have an opportunity to elect Cummins' Board of
Directors and to vote on other business matters described in the Proxy
Statement. The ESOP and CSF Trustees are the only shareholders of record for
your benefit plan shares and will vote on the proposals in the Proxy based on
your Proxy Card vote. All shares held in the ESOP that are not voted or have
not been credited to employee accounts will be voted by the Trustee on each
proposal in the same proportion as all shares voted on that proposal by ESOP
participants. Please complete and return your Proxy Card in the enclosed
envelope as soon as possible. Be sure to mark the box on the face of the Proxy
Card to designate it as a Trustee instruction.
 
  If you own additional shares of Cummins stock, you should not receive a
separate packet of materials for those shares unless they are held in a
brokerage or custodial account on your behalf. With that exception, voting of
all your shares is intended to be accommodated on one Proxy Card.
 
  ESOP participants who retired or otherwise ceased employment during the
fourth quarter of 1994 will be receiving a distribution of shares of stock and
cash for partial shares or cash in lieu of all shares if so elected, in the
next several weeks. Until such distribution, all former employees are
considered plan participants and should complete and return the enclosed Proxy
Card if they desire to vote their plan shares.
 
  Should you have any questions about the shareholder materials, please contact
Mark Gerstle (812-377-3520).
 
                                                      Sincerely,
