Cummins will conduct its May 12 Annual Meeting virtually to protect the health and safety of its employees and shareholders amid the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic.
A proxy supplement is being filed with the Securities Exchange Commission that contains additional information regarding the virtual meeting, which the company encourages its shareholders to read in its entirety.
Though Cummins shareholders will not be able to attend the annual meeting in person, virtual attendance capabilities will provide shareholders the ability to participate and submit questions during the meeting. Additionally, the company’s shareholders will be deemed to be “present” if they access the annual meeting through the virtual platform and they will be able to vote their shares at the annual meeting, or revoke or change a previously submitted vote, through the virtual platform.
The virtual meeting will be held at 11 a.m. ET on May 12. As described in the proxy materials for the annual meeting previously distributed, the company’s shareholders are entitled to participate in the annual meeting if they were a shareholder of record as of the close of business on March 10, the record date for the annual meeting, or they hold a legal proxy for the meeting provided by their bank, broker, or nominee.
The proxy card included with the proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to reflect the information provided in this announcement and may continue to be used to vote each shareholder’s shares in connection with the annual meeting. Shareholders will be able to attend the meeting online, vote their shares electronically, and submit their questions during the meeting by clicking here.
