PACCAR INC SAVINGS INVESTMENT PLAN
(As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2006)
Effective January 1, 1955, Pacific Car and Foundry Company, the corporate predecessor of PACCAR Inc (a Delaware corporation), adopted the Pacific Car and Foundry Company Profit Sharing Plan and executed a Trust Agreement to provide profit-sharing benefits for its salaried employees.
The Plan has been subsequently amended and restated and has been renamed the PACCAR Inc Savings Investment Plan. Effective April 1, 2005, PACCAR Inc amended and restated the Plan to provide that a portion of the Plan will constitute an employee stock ownership plan within the meaning of IRC section 4975(e)(7). Effective January 1, 2006, PACCAR Inc further amended and restated the Plan to comply with final regulations under IRC section 401(k) and to make certain other amendments as set forth herein. Certain provisions, which are specifically identified, have a different effective date.
ARTICLE 1
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
1.1 Purpose of Plan
The purposes of this amended and restated Plan are:
(a) To encourage systematic savings and investment by Eligible Employees as a means of building financial security;
(b) To increase the identification of Eligible Employees with the Companys financial success;
(c) To provide Eligible Employees with a flexible savings and investment program enabling them to make decisions concerning the rate of return and relative risk of the investments made for their Accounts, as their personal or economic conditions change; and
(d) To offer additional inducements which will attract and retain Eligible Employees with the knowledge and skills necessary for the Companys success.
The Plan provides for contributions to be made by the Company to aid in accomplishing these purposes.
The Plan and the Trust Agreement are intended to meet the requirements of IRC sections 401(a), 401(k) and 501(a). The assets of the Plan are held in trust and are invested for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Members of the Plan and their Beneficiaries.
The Plan is intended to qualify as an eligible individual account plan under section 407(d)(3) of ERISA, which is permitted to acquire and hold any amount of qualifying employer securities, and a portion of the Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock ownership
1
plan under IRC section 4975(e)(7), which portion is designed to invest primarily in PACCAR Stock.
1.2 Scope of Plan
The Plan, as set forth herein, applies to Members who are in employment as Employees on or after January 1, 2006. The rights and benefits, if any, of a former Employee shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Plan as in effect on the date when his employment terminated.
1.3 PACCAR Inc Administers for Participating Subsidiaries; Allocation of Cost
All acts required of the Company hereunder shall be performed by PACCAR Inc for itself and each of its participating Subsidiaries. The cost of the Plan shall be apportioned equitably among PACCAR Inc and its participating Subsidiaries; provided that if a Subsidiary is prevented from making any contribution which it otherwise would have made under the Plan by reason of having insufficient Current or Accumulated Earnings and Profits, then the contribution which such Subsidiary would have made shall be made by PACCAR Inc and its other participating Subsidiaries in such proportions as PACCAR Inc may determine, and in accordance with and subject to the deductible contribution limitations of IRC section 404 and the provisions of Article 5.
ARTICLE 2

(2) By including elective deferrals excludable from the Members gross income under section 125, section 132(f)(4) or section 402(e)(3) of the IRC and made to a plan maintained by the Company, including amounts contributed to the Plan as Salary Deferrals;

With respect to Salary Deferrals, the $200,000 indexed limitation shall be applied as follows: the percentage deferral elected by the Member under Section 4.1 shall apply to his or her entire Compensation for the payroll period (even if on an annualized basis Compensation would exceed $200,000 as indexed), provided, however, that aggregate Salary Deferrals for the Plan Year shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the dollar limitation under section 402(g) of the IRC (described in Section 4.5) or (ii) the dollar amount determined by multiplying the $200,000 indexed amount by the maximum deferral percentage permitted under Section 4.1.

(a) An Actual Deferral Percentage shall be determined for each Highly Compensated Employee who, at any time during the Plan Year, is a member (including a suspended Member) or is eligible to participate in the Plan, which Actual Deferral Percentage shall be the ratio, computed to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent, of the Highly Compensated Employees Aggregate 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year to the Highly Compensated Employees Section 414(s) Compensation for the Plan Year;
(b) If the Company elects (in accordance with applicable law) to apply this Subsection (b), an Actual Deferral Percentage shall be determined for each Nonhighly Compensated Employee who, at any time during the Plan Year, is a Member (including a suspended Member) or is eligible to participate in the Plan, which Actual Deferral Percentage shall be the ratio, computed to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent, of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees Aggregate 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year to the Nonhighly Compensated Employees Section 414(s) Compensation for the Plan Year;
(c) Provided the Company has not elected (in accordance with applicable law) to apply Subsection (b) rather than this Subsection (c), an Actual Deferral Percentage shall be determined for each Nonhighly Compensated Employee who, at any time during the preceding Plan Year, was a member (including a suspended Member) or who was eligible to participate in the Plan, which Actual Deferral Percentage shall be the ratio, calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent, of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees Aggregate 401(k) Contributions for the preceding Plan Year to the Nonhighly Compensated Employees Section 414(s) Compensation for the preceding Plan Year;
(d) The Actual Deferral Percentages (including zero percentages) of Highly Compensated Employees and Nonhighly Compensated Employees shall be separately averaged to determine each groups Average Deferral Percentage; and
(e) The Aggregate 401(k) Contributions of Highly Compensated Employees shall constitute Excess Contributions and shall be reduced, pursuant to Sections 4.7 and 4.8, to the extent that the Average Deferral Percentage of Highly Compensated Employees exceeds the greater of (1) 125 percent of the Average Deferral Percentage of Nonhighly Compensated Employees or (2) the lesser of (A) 200 percent of the Average Deferral Percentage of Nonhighly Compensated Employees or (B) the Average Deferral Percentage of Nonhighly Compensated Employees plus two percentage points.

4.7 Allocation of Excess Contributions to Highly Compensated Employees
Any Excess Contributions for a Plan Year shall be allocated to Highly Compensated Employees by use of a leveling process, whereby the Aggregate 401(k) Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of Aggregate 401(k) Contributions are reduced to the extent required to (a) eliminate all Excess Contributions or (b) cause such Highly Compensated Employees Aggregate 401(k) Contributions to equal the Aggregate 401(k) Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next-highest Aggregate 401(k) Contributions. Such leveling process shall be repeated until all Excess Contributions for such Plan Year are allocated to Highly Compensated Employees.
4.8 Distribution of Excess Contributions
Excess Contributions allocated to Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year pursuant to Section 4.7, together with any income or loss allocable to such Excess Contributions, shall be distributed to such Highly Compensated Employees not later than the March 15 next following the close of such Plan Year, if possible, and in any event no later than 12 months following the close of such Plan Year. Any Salary Deferrals distributed pursuant to this Section 4.8 shall not be included in the Salary Deferrals that attract a Company Contribution under Section 5.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Excess Contributions allocated to a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year pursuant to Section 4.7 could otherwise constitute Age 50 Catch-Up Deferrals pursuant to Section 4.14, such Excess Contributions shall be recharacterized as Age 50 Catch-Up Deferrals for the Plan Year rather than be distributed to the Highly Compensated Employee as described above.
4.9 Qualified Company Contributions
The Company, in its sole discretion, may include all or a portion of the Company Contributions for a Plan Year in Aggregate 401(k) Contributions taken into account in applying the Average Deferral Percentage limitation described in Section 4.6 for such Plan Year, provided that the requirements of section 1.401(k)-2(a)(6) of the Income Tax Regulations are satisfied.

16
(c) For purposes of applying the limitation described in Section 4.6, the Actual Deferral Percentage of any Highly Compensated Employee who is eligible to make Salary Deferrals and to make elective deferrals (within the meaning of section 402(g)(3) of the IRC) under any other plans, contracts or arrangements maintained by PACCAR Inc or any Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.1(nn) without regard to the last sentence thereof) shall be determined as if all such Salary Deferrals and elective deferrals were made under a single arrangement (other than those plans that may not be permissively aggregated); provided, however, that if such plans have different plan years, the plans are aggregated with respect to contributions made within this Plans Plan Year only;
(d) In the event that this Plan is aggregated with one or more other plans in order to satisfy the requirements of IRC section 401(a)(4), 401(k) or 410(b), then all such aggregated plans, including the Plan, shall be treated as a single plan for all purposes under all such IRC sections (except for purposes of the average benefit percentage provisions of IRC section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii));
(e) In the event that the mandatory disaggregation rules of Treasury Regulation section 1.401(k)-1(b) apply to the Plan, or to the Plan and other plans with which it is aggregated as described in Subsection (d) above, then the limitation described in Section 4.6 shall be applied as if each mandatorily disaggregated portion of the Plan (or aggregated plans) were a single arrangement
(f) Provided this limit is applied uniformly in determining the Average Deferral Percentage limitation for the Plan Year, the Company may limit Section 414(s) Compensation to the amount of such compensation paid to the Eligible Employee during the portion of the Plan Year that such Member was an Eligible Employee;
(g) If the Plan permits participation in the 401(k) portion of the Plan prior to an Eligible Employees satisfaction of the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC and if section 410(b)(4)(B) of the IRC is applied in determining whether the 401(k) portion of the Plan meets the requirements of section 410(b) of the IRC, then for purposes of performing the average deferral percentage test, the test may be performed separately with regard to Eligible Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC or, alternatively, Eligible Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC may instead be excluded in the determination of the Average Deferral Percentage for Nonhighly Compensated Employees, but not in the determination of the Average Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees; and

5.7 Special Rules
The following special rules shall apply for purposes of this Article 5:
(a) For purposes of applying the limitation described in Section 5.3, the Actual Contribution Percentage of any Highly Compensated Employee who is eligible to participate in the Plan and to make employee contributions or receive an allocation of matching contributions (within the meaning of section 401(m)(4)(A) of the IRC) under any other plans, contracts or arrangements maintained by PACCAR Inc or any Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.1(nn) without regard to the last sentence thereof) shall be determined as if Company Contributions allocated to such Highly Compensated Employees Accounts and all such employee contributions and matching contributions were made under a single arrangement (other than those plans that may not be permissively aggregated); provided, however, that if such plans have different plan years, the plans are aggregated with respect to contributions made within this Plans Plan Year only;
(b) In the event that this Plan is aggregated with one or more other plans in order to satisfy the requirements of IRC section 401(a)(4), 401(m) or 410(b), then all such aggregated plans, including the Plan, shall be treated as a single plan for all purposes under all such IRC sections (except for purposes of the average benefit percentage provisions of IRC section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii));
(c) In the event that the mandatory disaggregation rules of Treasury Regulation section 1.401(m)-1(b) apply to the Plan, or to the Plan and other plans with which it is aggregated as described in Subsection (b) above, then the limitation described in Section 5.3 shall be applied as if each mandatorily disaggregated portion of the Plan (or aggregated plans) were a single arrangement;
(d) Provided this limit is applied uniformly in determining the Actual Contribution Percentage limitation for the Plan Year, the Company may limit Section 414(s) Compensation to the amount of such compensation paid to the Eligible Employee
22
during the portion of the Plan Year that such Member was an Eligible Employee; and
(e) If the Plan permits participation in the 401(m) portion of the Plan prior to an Eligible Employees satisfaction of the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC and if section 410(b)(4)(B) of the IRC is applied in determining whether the 401(m) portion of the Plan meets the requirements of section 410(b) of the IRC, then for purposes of performing the average contribution percentage test, the test may be performed separately with regard to Eligible Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC or, alternatively, Eligible Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the IRC may instead be excluded in the determination of the Average Contribution Percentage for Nonhighly Compensated Employees, but not in the determination of the Average Contribution Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees; and

Section 5.1 notwithstanding, Company Contributions, whether paid in cash or other property, shall be paid only out of the Current or Accumulated Earnings and Profits of any corporation participating in the Plan.
(b) Suspension or Reduction of Company Contributions
Section 5.1 and (a) above notwithstanding, if for any fiscal year of PACCAR Inc it is determined that Earnings for such year are less than eight percent of the Capital Base, then Company Contributions may be suspended in whole or in part for a period of up to 12 months.

23
notice period prescribed by the Company, to suspend his Salary Deferrals for the period with respect to which Company Contributions are reduced or suspended. A suspension under such circumstances and for such period shall not be treated as a voluntary suspension of Salary Deferrals under Section 4.4. A Member may also continue to contribute Salary Deferrals to the Plan, notwithstanding a reduction or suspension of Company Contributions by reason of this Section 5.8. Company Contributions made with respect to any Plan Year in a reduced amount shall be allocated to Members in proportion to their Salary Deferrals for such Plan Year.
(d) Effect of Suspension or Reduction on Future Company Contributions
If the Company suspends or reduces Company Contributions to the Plan pursuant to this Section 5.8, the Company shall be under no obligation at any future date to make additional Company Contributions with respect to any period of suspended or reduced Company Contributions, whether or not any Members have elected to continue their Salary Deferrals during such period of suspension or reduction of Company Contributions.

In addition, if all or part of a Company Contribution is attributable to a mistake of fact, then the excess of such Company Contribution over the amount which would have been contributed in the absence of the mistake of fact (reduced by any losses incurred with respect to such excess) shall be returned to the Company within 12 months after the date of such Company Contribution.

However, a Beneficiary may make a request, subject to the Companys consent, to accelerate the distribution of any or all unpaid installments to which such Beneficiary is entitled. The request shall be made in accordance with the Companys written procedures.
(b) Member Dies Before Benefit Distribution
This Subsection (b) shall apply in the event that a Member dies before his Benefit is distributed and (a) above does not apply.

The Member may change his designation of a Beneficiary from time to time in accordance with procedures established by the Company. Any other provision of this Subsection (c) notwithstanding, in the case of a married Member, any designation of a person other than his spouse as Beneficiary shall be effective only if the spouse consents to the designation in writing and such written consent is witnessed by a notary public.
33
8.10 No Alienation of Benefits; Qualified Domestic Relations Order
No benefit payable under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution or levy of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary, prior to actually being received by the person entitled to such benefit under the terms of the Plan; and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or otherwise dispose of any right to a benefit payable hereunder shall be void. However, neither of the following shall constitute a violation of this Section 8.10:
(a) The creation or recognition of a right in an alternate payee to any pension payable with respect to a Member pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (as defined in IRC Section 414(p)), as determined in accordance with procedures established by the Company, and the payment of benefits in accordance with the applicable requirements of such order; or
(b) The Trustees compliance with instructions from the Company to reduce a Members benefit by amounts the Member is ordered or required to pay the Plan, where such order or requirement: (i) arises under a judgment of conviction for a crime involving the Plan, under a civil judgment (including a consent order or decree) entered by a court on or after August 5, 1997 in an action brought in connection with a violation of part 4 of subtitle B of title I of ERISA or under a settlement entered into on or after August 5, 1997 with the Department of Labor asserting a violation of part 4 of subtitle B of title I of ERISA; and (ii) the judgment, order, decree or settlement expressly provides for the offset of all or part of the amount ordered or required to be paid to the Plan against the Members benefits provided under the Plan.
Pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, the Plan may distribute any benefit payable to an alternate payee in the form of a single lump sum in cash prior to the earliest date upon which the Member could receive his Benefit. To the extent that a qualified domestic relations order creates, assigns, or recognizes the right of an alternate payee to any portion of the Benefit otherwise payable to or with respect to a Member, such portion shall not thereafter be taken into account in determining the Benefit payable to or with respect to that Member under the Plan.
8.11 Facility of Payment
Whenever, in the Companys opinion, a person entitled to receive any distribution of a Benefit or installment thereof is under a legal disability or is physically or mentally incapacitated in any way so as to be unable to manage his financial affairs, the Company may direct the Trustee to make distribution to such person or to his legal representative or to a relative or friend of such person for his benefit; or the Company may direct the Trustee to apply the payment for the benefit of such person in such manner as the Company considers advisable.
34
8.12 Unclaimed Benefits
If any Benefit, or a portion thereof, becomes distributable under the Plan and the Company is unable to locate the Member or Beneficiary to whom the distribution is payable for three consecutive Plan Years, then the Members Accounts shall be closed after the third consecutive Plan Year during which such distribution is payable but the Member or Beneficiary cannot be found. The amount of the unpaid Benefit shall be applied to reduce Company Contributions (unless mandatory provisions of applicable escheat laws require other application, in which case such Benefit shall be applied as such mandatory laws require), as determined by the Company. If, however, the Member or Beneficiary subsequently makes a proper claim to the Company for any Benefit applied to reduce Company Contributions, then such Benefit (without income, gains or other adjustment) shall be restored to the Members Accounts from contributions made by the Company for this purpose, without regard to Current or Accumulated Earnings and Profits. The Benefit shall thereafter be distributable in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
8.13 Payments Discharge Plan; Adverse Claims
Any payment or distribution made to any person in full compliance with the terms of the Plan shall fully discharge the Company, the Plan and any Trustee or insurance company making such payment from all adverse claims thereto respecting which prior written notice has not been given to any such entity making or directing the payment or distribution. If the Company has received actual written notice of any adverse claim to any payment or distribution not yet made, the Company may suspend distribution and take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Plan or its Members and Beneficiaries, until the respective rights of all interested persons have been determined to the satisfaction of the Company.
8.14 Direct Rollovers
(a) Direct Rollover Option

ARTICLE 18
SPECIAL TOP-HEAVY RULES
18.1 Determination of Top-Heavy Status
Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, this Article 18 shall apply to any Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan. The Plan shall be considered a Top-Heavy Plan for a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date for such Plan Year, the Top-Heavy Ratio for the Aggregation Group exceeds 60 percent.
18.2 Minimum Allocations
For any Plan Year during which the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, Company Contributions allocated to the Accounts of each Member who is not a Key Employee, but who is an Employee on the last day of such Plan Year, shall not be less than the lesser of (a) three percent of Wages or (b) the greatest allocation, expressed as a percentage of Compensation made to any Member who is a Key Employee. To the extent required by this Section 18.2, the Company shall make additional Company Contributions without regard to the limitations of Section 5.8.
This Section 18.2 shall not apply to any Member for a Plan Year during which the Member received a minimum accrued benefit described in section 416(c)(1) of the IRC under a qualified defined-benefit plan maintained by PACCAR Inc or any of its Subsidiaries (determined without regard to the last sentence of Section 2.1(nn)). However, this Section 18.2 shall apply to any Eligible Employee who could become a Member under Section 3.1 but who has not elected to do so.
18.3 Definitions
For purposes of this Article 18 only, the following definitions shall apply:
(a) Aggregation Group means either the Required Aggregation Group or any Permissive Aggregation Group, as the Company may elect.

(d) Permissive Aggregation Group means a group of qualified plans which includes (1) the Required Aggregation Group and (2) one or more plans of the Company or a Subsidiary which are not part of the Required Aggregation Group. A Permissive Aggregation Group, when viewed as a single plan, must satisfy the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the IRC.
(e) Required Aggregation Group means a group of qualified plans which includes (1) each plan of the Company or a Subsidiary in which a Key Employee participates and (2) each other plan of the Company or a Subsidiary which enables any plan in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) or 410 of the IRC.
(f) Top-Heavy Ratio means a percentage determined pursuant to section 416(g) of the IRC. In applying section 416(g) of the IRC, the valuation date shall be the Determination Date.
(g) Wages means wages as defined in section 3401(a) of the IRC for purposes of income tax withholding at the source, but determined without regard to any rules that limit the remuneration included in wages based on the nature or location of the employment or the services performed (such as the exception for agricultural labor in section 3401(a)(2) of the IRC).
