Cummins G-Drive Generator Engines

Power Generation / Logo / GOEM Branding Guidelines

Key Initial Actions and Principles:

We have a clear commitment from Cummins Power Generation to manage Cummins brand
standards and principles. We will develop a clear “s.m.a.r.t.” plan via the G-Drive council for
the implementation and enforcement of the Cummins brand standards. It is key that we do not
compromise our brand standards:

We shall take measures to ensure that (our customers) others shall not use the Cummins trademarks, trade names and logos on their products, nor on their literature, buildings or advertising without the consent of Cummins Inc. We agree to assist in enforcing the Cummins brand standards and to cease doing business with GOEMs who abuse such guidelines.

Our initial focus is to communicate with the GOEMs and educate them on our brand standards,
followed closely by compliance and enforcement.

We apply the brand standards and principles globally – without compromise – for all Cummins
GOEMs, irrespective of geographic location.

We will train our team, GOEMs and dealers on expectations for managing the Cummins brand
standards and the process for reporting infringement.

Cummins Brand Standards for Generator New and Original Equipment Manufacturers

Cummins Inc. trademarks and trade names are extremely valuable because they represent the
standards of excellence associated with the Cummins^® brand. The goal of these standards is to establish a reference document to facilitate the consistent and correct use of Cummins trademarks and trade names by Generator New and Original Equipment Manufacturers (GOEMs).

A. Referencing the Cummins^® Trademark in Text

The trademark “Cummins^®” is synonymous with high-quality, reliable and dependable products and services. Throughout the world, thousands of products are produced every year under trademarks of Cummins Inc. Consequently, Cummins Inc. trademarks are extremely valuable because they
represent the high level of quality associated with Cummins Inc.

Properly identify the brand of Cummins Inc. as a trademark in text: Cummins^®

Follow this standard when referencing Cummins® branded offerings.

• Follow this standard when referencing Cummins^® brand engines referred to in the text of your materials.

• Trademark registration symbols should be applied accordingly. See example below:
  Cummins^® engine

• Trademarks are used to describe a noun (“...a Cummins^® engine”) and not as a noun
  (“...a Cummins^®.”)

Proper usage of the Cummins^® trademark in text

If you are using a Cummins^® engine in your product and want to reference this fact, this section
addresses how to do this properly. Below are examples of how to and how not to use the trademark “Cummins^®” in brochures, web sites, trade shows and other text.

Follow these standards when making reference to Cummins^® brand products in the text in your
materials.

The Cummins^® trademark identifies the origin of specific products and services as being from
Cummins Inc., so it is important to use only correct descriptors and markings in a way that does not create confusion or misunderstanding as to origin.

• An engine manufactured by Cummins Inc. is properly referred to and labeled as a “Cummins^® engine”

• A generator set manufactured by Cummins Inc. is properly referred to and labeled as
  a “Cummins^® genset”

• A generator set manufactured by an entity other than Cummins Inc. is properly referred
  to and labeled as a “genset”

For instance, assemblers should not refer to applications, services or hardware that use Cummins® engines as being Cummins^® products. If need be, they may be referred to by their relationship or content, including the Cummins^® engine.

• A generator set manufactured by Cummins Inc.. is properly referred to and labeled as
  a “Cummins^® genset”

• A generator set offered by an entity other than Cummins Inc. but that includes an authorized Cummins^® engine may be referred to as a “genset powered by a Cummins^® engine”

• A generator set offered by ABC Company that includes an authorized Cummins^® engine may be referred to as an “ABC^® genset powered by a Cummins^® engine”

Proper usage of the Cummins^® and certification in text

• The Cummins^® trademark may be used only to identify products and services that
  are originated by Cummins Inc. or an authorized Cummins entity, as permitted expressly by Cummins Inc.

• No markings that imply, state or suggest that a product is “certified” or “approved”
  by Cummins Inc. are permitted without an express license or contract from Cummins Inc.

• Aggregating or assembling a product that includes a Cummins^® component does not
  permit that assembling entity to label, imply or suggest that the final product is a Cummins^® product or offering
