PACCAR
INC SAVINGS INVESTMENT PLAN
(As Amended and Restated Effective April 1, 2005)
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
further 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) and
to make certain other amendments as set forth herein. Certain provisions, which are specifically
identified, have a different effective date.
The Pacific Car and Foundry Company Profit Sharing
Trust, which was established by Trust Agreement effective January 1, 1955,
and replaced by Trust Agreement dated December 30, 1972, was amended and
restated as of July 1, 1978, and again on January 22, 2001, as well
as the Trust Agreement Between PACCAR Inc and Fidelity Management Trust
Company, established December 31, 1993, and restated as of February 1,
1994, are intended to implement this amended and restated Plan.
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 Company’s 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 Company’s success.
The Plan provides for
contributions to be made by the Company to aid in accomplishing these purposes.
1
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 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 April 1,
2005. 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.

of a suspension of contributions pursuant to Section 4.4, as a result of a
determination by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2, because the Member
is receiving no Compensation, or for other reasons;
(2)
The
Member fails to qualify as an Eligible Employee, whether by reason of a change
in employment status, a transfer to a Subsidiary which does not participate in
the Plan, or for other reasons, but remains an Employee; or
(3)
Employment
as an Employee has terminated but the distribution of any Benefit to which the
Member is entitled has not been completed.
An Employee (while
living) shall also have the status of a Restricted Member if he is not a Member
for all purposes of the Plan but has made a Rollover Contribution and such
Contribution has not been fully distributed.
(b)
Effect
of Restricted Membership
The following rules shall
apply to Restricted Members and their Accounts with respect to periods during
which they are Restricted Members:
(1)
Except
as provided in Section 5.2, no Company Contributions shall be credited to
a Restricted Member’s Company Contributions Account; and
12
(2)
No
Salary Deferrals shall be contributed to a Restricted Member’s Salary Deferral
Accounts.
ARTICLE 4
SALARY DEFERRALS AND ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS
4.1
Amount
of Salary Deferrals
Salary Deferrals are required
of all Members other than Restricted Members.
Subject to Section 4.14 and the limitations of this Article 4
and Article 15, any such Member may elect to contribute Salary Deferrals
equal to any whole percentage of his Compensation received each pay period
after becoming a Member, but not in excess of 35 percent of such
Compensation. Salary Deferrals are not
permitted to be made by a Member for any payday on which such Member is not an
Eligible Employee.
The amount of a Member’s
Salary Deferrals shall be withheld by the Company from his Compensation on each
payday. All Salary Deferrals so withheld
shall be paid by the Company to the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable,
but in no event later than the 15th day of the month next following the month
in which they would otherwise have been payable to the Member in cash. Salary Deferrals shall be fully vested and
nonforfeitable at all times.
For Federal income tax
purposes (and, wherever permitted, for state and local tax purposes), Salary
Deferrals shall be deemed to be employer contributions to the Plan, and a
Member’s election to commence or continue his membership in the Plan shall
constitute an election to have his taxable compensation reduced by the amount
of all of his Salary Deferrals.
On or after February 1,
1983, no Member shall make any Member Contributions to the Plan. However, Member Contributions made before February 1,
1983, shall remain credited to the Member’s Employee Accounts until they are
withdrawn or distributed pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.
4.2
Involuntary
Reduction of Salary Deferral Rate
At any time prior to or
during a Plan Year, the Company (at its sole discretion) may reduce the maximum
rate at which any Member may contribute Salary Deferrals to the Plan for such
Plan Year or during the remainder of such Plan Year, or the Company may require
that any Member discontinue all Salary Deferrals for the remainder of such Plan
Year, for the purpose of meeting the special nondiscrimination rules under
the IRC. Any reduction or discontinuance
of Salary Deferrals may be applied selectively to individual Members or to
particular classes of Members, as the Company may determine. In addition to requiring a prospective
reduction or discontinuance of Salary Deferrals, the Company may distribute to
any Member such portion of the Salary Deferrals that he already contributed for
a Plan Year as it determines is necessary to meet the special nondiscrimination
rules under the IRC for such year, as provided in Sections 4.5, 4.8 and
15.3 below.
13
4.3
Voluntary
Change of Salary Deferral Rate
A Member may elect at any
time to change the rate of his Salary Deferrals prospectively to any other
percentage permitted under this Article 4.
Any election pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be made in
accordance with the Company’s written procedures applicable at the time of the
election.
4.4
Voluntary
Suspension of Salary Deferrals
A Member may elect to
suspend all Salary Deferrals at any time, thereby becoming a Restricted Member
pursuant to Section 3.4. Any such
election shall be made in accordance with the Company’s written
procedures. Any election to resume
Salary Deferrals shall become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after
it is received by the Company, but in no event earlier than the date 180 days
after the effective date of the election to suspend Salary Deferrals.
When a Member resumes
Salary Deferrals following such suspension, he may make new elections under
this Article 4 regarding the amount and allocation thereof; provided,
however, that if he does not make such new elections, his previous elections
shall be applicable.
4.5
Return
of Excess Deferrals
Subject to Section 4.14,
the aggregate Salary Deferrals of any Member for any calendar year, together
with his or her elective deferrals under any other plan or arrangement to which
section 402(g) of the IRC applies and that is maintained by PACCAR
Inc or any Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.1(oo) without regard to the
last sentence thereof), shall not exceed $11,000 (or such larger amount as may
be adopted by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to reflect a cost-of-living
adjustment). In the event that such
aggregate Salary Deferrals and elective deferrals of any Member for any
calendar year exceed $11,000 (or such larger amount as may be adopted by the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue to reflect a cost-of-living adjustment), then
such portion of the Excess Deferrals, and any income or loss allocable to such
portion, shall be refunded to the Member not later than the April 15 next
following the close of such calendar year.
In the event that a
Member’s elective deferrals (within the meaning of section 402(g)(3) of
the IRC) for a calendar year exceed $11,000 (or such larger amount as may be
adopted by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to reflect a cost-of-living
adjustment) solely because such Member participated in this Plan and a plan or
arrangement maintained by an employer other than PACCAR Inc or any Subsidiary
(as defined in Section 2.1(oo) without regard to the last sentence
thereof), then such Member may designate all or a portion of such Excess
Deferrals as attributable to this Plan and may request a refund of such portion
by notifying the Company in writing on or before the March 1 next
following the close of such calendar year.
If timely notice is received, then such a Member’s Excess Deferrals, and
any income or loss allocable thereto, shall be refunded to the Member from this
Plan no later than the April 15 next following the close of such calendar
year.
14
Income (and loss)
allocable to Excess Deferrals for the calendar year, but not for the period
between the end of the calendar year and the date of distribution of such
Excess Deferrals, shall be determined pursuant to the provisions for allocating
income (and loss) to a Participant’s Accounts under Section 7.2 of the
Plan.
4.6
Average
Deferral Percentage Limitation
The Plan shall be deemed
to satisfy the average deferral percentage test for any Plan Year for which the
Company Contributions under the Plan satisfies the requirements of section 401(k)(12)
of the IRC. Otherwise, the Plan shall
satisfy the average deferral percentage test provided in section 401(k)(3) of
the IRC and section 1.401(k)-1 of the Income Tax Regulations issued
thereunder. Subject to the special rules described
in Section 4.10, the Aggregate 401(k) Contributions of Highly Compensated
Employees shall not exceed the limits described below:
(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 Employee’s Aggregate 401(k)
Contributions for the Plan Year to the Highly Compensated Employee’s 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 Employee’s Aggregate
401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year to the Nonhighly Compensated Employee’s 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 Employee’s Aggregate 401(k) Contributions for the
preceding Plan Year to the Nonhighly Compensated Employee’s 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 group’s 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
15
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 Employee’s 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.
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)-1(b)(5) of
the Income Tax Regulations are satisfied.
4.10
Special
Rules
The following special rules shall
apply for purposes of this Article 4:
(a)
The
amount of Excess Deferrals to be distributed to a Member for a calendar year
pursuant to Section 4.5 shall be reduced by the amount of any Excess
Contributions previously distributed to such Member for the Plan Year ending
within such calendar year;
(b)
The
amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed to a Member for a Plan Year
pursuant to Section 4.8 shall be reduced by the amount of any Excess
Deferrals previously distributed to such Member for the calendar year ending
with such Plan Year;
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(oo) 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 the plan
years ending with or within the same calendar year;
(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(g)(11)
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 Employee’s 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
(h)
Income
(and loss) allocable to Excess Contributions for the Plan Year, but not for the
period between the end of the Plan Year and the date of distribution of such
Excess Contributions, shall be determined pursuant to Section 7.2.

(a)
The
contribution must be made entirely in the form of U.S. dollars;
(b)
The
Eligible Employee must demonstrate to the Company’s satisfaction that the

with the Company’s written procedures.

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(oo) without regard to the
last sentence thereof) shall be determined as if Company Contributions
allocated to such Highly Compensated Employee’s 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 the plan years ending with or within the same calendar year;
(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

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)

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

(and loss) allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year, but
not for the period between the end of the Plan Year and the date of

Company
Contributions Paid From Earnings and Profits
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. For purposes of this Subsection (b),
“Earnings” for any fiscal year is defined as the sum of (1) total income
before taxes of PACCAR Inc and consolidated subsidiaries and (2) interest
expense on manufacturing long-term debt and Company Contributions to the Plan;
and “Capital Base” means the sum of (1) stockholders’ equity and (2) manufacturing
long-term debt of PACCAR Inc and consolidated subsidiaries (determined as of
the end of the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which Earnings are
measured); in each case as such amounts are determined from the annual audited
financial statements (or related supporting documentation) for PACCAR Inc and
subsidiaries for such fiscal year.
(c)
Effect
of Suspension or Reduction on Salary
If the Company suspends
or reduces Company Contributions pursuant to this Section 5.8, it shall
notify the Trustee and all Members. Each
Member shall then have the right, by giving notice to the Company on the
prescribed form within the
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.
5.9
Company
Contributions in PACCAR Stock
The Company may elect to
pay all or part of any Company Contribution in the form of PACCAR Stock. For purposes of determining the amount of the
Company’s deduction under section 404 of the IRC, shares of PACCAR Stock
so contributed shall be valued at the last-transaction price quoted by the
National Market System of the National Association of Securities Dealers and
reported by The Wall Street Journal with respect to the date on which such
shares are paid to the Plan.
5.10
Diversification
of Company Contributions Account After Age 50
Each Member who is age 50
or older and who has completed a Period of Service of five years or more may
elect at any time to transfer any whole percentage of the amount of the Member’s
Company Contributions Account then invested in one Investment Option (including
the PACCAR Stock Fund) to another Investment Option (including the PACCAR Stock
Fund) in accordance with the Company’s written procedures. Any future Company Contributions allocated to
such Member shall continue to be allocated to the Member’s Company
Contributions Account in the form of PACCAR Stock.
5.11
Return
of Company Contributions
Any other provision of
the Plan notwithstanding, each Company Contribution under Section 5.1 is
expressly conditioned upon the deductibility of such contribution under Section 404
of the IRC. If the deductibility of a
Company Contribution is denied, then the amount for which a deduction is
disallowed (reduced by any losses incurred with respect to such amount) shall
be returned to the Company within 12 months after the date of the
disallowance. 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
24
incurred with respect to
such excess) shall be returned to the Company within 12 months after the date
of such Company Contribution.

person or group of persons makes a tender offer subject to section 14(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to acquire all or part of the outstanding
shares of PACCAR Stock, including the PACCAR Stock held in the Trust Fund
(“Acquisition Offer”), each Member shall be entitled to direct the Trustee
confidentially to tender all or part of those shares of PACCAR Stock that would
then be subject to such Member’s voting instructions under Section 6.3. If the Trustee receives an instruction by the
date communicated by the Company to Members, the Trustee shall tender such
shares in accordance with such instruction.
Any PACCAR Stock as to which the Trustee does not receive timely
instructions shall not be tendered by the Trustee. The Company shall distribute to each Member
all appropriate materials pertaining to the Acquisition Offer, including the

of such offer, the Company shall distribute such materials to each Member
without the statement by the Company and shall separately distribute such
statement as soon as practicable after it is issued.

AMOUNT AND DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS
8.1
Vesting

Each Member’s interest in
his Accounts is 100 percent vested at all times. In the case of a reemployed Member who previously
incurred a forfeiture from his Company Contributions Account under the Plan as
in effect prior to January 1, 1989, any such forfeiture may be restored to
the Member’s Company Contributions Account if the Member satisfies the
requirements of the Plan as in effect prior to January 1, 1989, concerning
the repayment of prior forfeitures.
Benefits to which a Member is entitled are distributable to such Member
or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, as further provided in this Article 8. The amount distributable to the Member shall
be determined as of the later of (a) the Valuation Date coinciding with or
immediately following the date of the Member’s termination of employment or (b) the
Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the distribution date
elected by the Member under Section 8.2.
8.2

reasonably practicable after) the date that he has elected. The distribution election shall be made in

of his Benefit before he attains age 65.
8.3

timely distribution election form, Section 8.7 shall apply and Section 8.12
(relating to unclaimed Benefits) may apply.
8.4
Special

If
a Member other than a five-percent owner (as defined in section 416 of the
IRC and taking into account any modifications under section 401(a)(9) of
the IRC) is still an Employee as of his Required Beginning Date, he may elect
(in the manner specified under the Company’s written procedures) to defer
payment or commencement of his Benefit to the date he ceases to be an Employee,
in which case the Company shall pay or commence his Benefit as soon as
reasonably practicable thereafter, but not later than April 1 of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which he ceases to be an Employee.
(b)
All
distributions under the Plan shall be made in accordance with the Income Tax
Regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the IRC, including Income Tax

expectancy(ies) under this Plan shall not be recalculated.
8.5
Reemployment

Member is reemployed and becomes a Member of the Plan prior to the distribution
of his entire Benefit relating to his earlier period of employment, then (a) any
election of a deferred distribution date under Section 8.2 shall be
disregarded; (b) any installment payments in process shall be
discontinued, and the undistributed portion of the Member’s Accounts which
formerly had been in his PACCAR Stock Fund (if any) shall be retransferred to
his PACCAR Stock Fund; and (c) the Member’s entire Benefit, including the
Benefit relating to the period following his reemployment, shall be distributed
in accordance with the latest distribution election form filed by the Member,
after his reemployment, pursuant to Section 8.2.

attainment of age 65, the election shall be made no more than 90 days prior to
the distribution date elected by the Member.
(b)
Member
Who Fails to Elect Payment Form
If a Member’s Benefit must
be paid after he ceases to be an Employee on account of his Required Beginning
Date, he shall elect a form of distribution under Section 8.6 for this
Benefit. If the Member fails to elect
any form of distribution for such benefit before his Required Beginning Date,
then such Benefit shall be distributed in the form of a lump sum consisting
entirely of cash.
8.8
Small
Benefits
Any other provision of
this Article 8 notwithstanding, effective for distributions made on or
after March 28, 2005, if the value of a Member’s entire Benefit equals
$1,000 or less before the first payment of such Benefit is made, then the
Benefit automatically shall be paid to such Member (or, in the case of his
termination as a result of his death, to his Beneficiary) in a single lump sum
in cash as soon as administratively practicable after the Member’s termination
and without his consent. The foregoing
notwithstanding, (a) in the case of a
32
Member who has made the
election described in Section 5.2, the determination of whether the value
of the Member’s entire Benefit equals $1,000 or less shall be made immediately
following the last day of the Plan Year in which such Member terminated
employment and (b) in the event of termination of a Member’s employment
due to a Layoff, payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable
following the last day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the
termination of employment occurred. If
the value of a benefit payable to an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified
domestic relations order (as defined in section 414(p) of the IRC)
(“QDRO”) is not more than $1,000 and payment of such benefit has not commenced,
such benefit shall be paid automatically to such alternate payee in a single
lump sum in cash as soon as administratively practicable after the QDRO is
received by the Plan and without the alternate payee’s consent.
8.9
Survivors’
Benefits
(a)
Member
Dies After Installments Commence
This Subsection (a) shall
apply only in the event that a Member elected to receive all or a portion of
his Benefit in annual installments under Section 8.6(c) and then dies
after installment payments have commenced but before such payments are
completed. The remaining installments of
such Member’s Benefit ordinarily shall be paid to his Beneficiary in accordance
with the predetermined distribution schedule originally established for
him by the Company. However, a
Beneficiary may make a request, subject to the Company’s 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 Company’s 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. Such Member’s Benefit
ordinarily shall be paid to his Beneficiary in the form of a single lump sum in
cash, and the distribution ordinarily shall be made as soon as reasonably
practicable after the Member’s death. A
Beneficiary may, however, make request to defer the distribution of the Benefit
to which such Beneficiary is entitled.
However, the distribution shall in no event be made later than five
years after the Member’s death. A
Beneficiary shall make the request to receive the Benefit to which such
Beneficiary is entitled or to defer receipt in accordance with the Company’s
written procedures.
(c)
Designating
a Beneficiary
Upon commencement of
membership, each Member shall name one or more persons as the Beneficiary who
will receive any distribution payable under the Plan in the event of the Member’s
death. The designation shall be
registered with the Company in accordance with the Company’s written procedures. If the Member has not made an effective
designation of a Beneficiary or if none of the named Beneficiaries is living
when any distribution is to be made, then (1) the spouse of the deceased
Member
33
shall be the Beneficiary
or (2) if the Member has no spouse living at the time of such
distribution, then the living children of the deceased Member shall be the
Beneficiaries in equal shares or (3) if the Member has neither spouse nor
children living at the time of such payment, the estate of the Member shall be
the Beneficiary. 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.
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
Trustee’s compliance with instructions from the Company to reduce a Member’s
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 Member’s 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.
34
8.11
Facility
of Payment
Whenever, in the Company’s
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.
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 Member’s 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 Member’s 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

Provide
that a Member’s or Restricted Member’s Accounts shall not be applied to the

necessary or appropriate to cause the Plan to realize on its security for the
loan. Such actions may include (without
limitation) an involuntary withdrawal from the Member’s Accounts, first to the
extent permitted under Section 10.1 and second from other amounts credited
to the Member’s Accounts; provided that (1) such an involuntary withdrawal
attributable to Company Contributions made with respect to those Plan Years
that ended less than 24 months prior to the date of the withdrawal (adjusted to
reflect any earnings, appreciation or losses attributable to such Company
Contributions) and from amounts credited to Salary Deferral Accounts shall be
permitted only to the extent that the hardship requirements of section 401(k)(2)(B)(i)(IV)

regulations, rules and interpretations adopted by the Company shall be
conclusive and binding on all persons.
Any regulations, rules and procedures of general application

The Company shall engage
an independent qualified public accountant to conduct such examinations and to

employment and marital status, and the correct address to which matters
affecting such person shall be mailed or delivered. The Company may rely solely on the records of
the Plan, as modified by any such written notice,
41
and on information
otherwise available to the Company, in its administration of the Plan. The Company in administering the Plan may
further rely on information or advice furnished by the Trustee, actuaries,

PACCAR Inc
P.O. Box 1518

13.2
Denial
of Applications
In the event that any
application for benefits is denied in whole or in part, the Company shall
notify the applicant in writing of his right to an independent review of the
denial. Such written notice shall set
forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, specific
reasons for the denial, specific references to the Plan provisions on which the
denial is based, a description of any information or material necessary to
perfect the application, an explanation of why such material is necessary, an
explanation of the Plan’s review procedure, (including an explanation of the
applicant’s right to initiate a lawsuit under section 502(a) of ERISA
if the applicant’s appeal is denied), and, in the case of a Disability Claim
(defined below), each specific internal rule, guideline, protocol or other similar
criteria relied upon in making such denial (or a statement that such criteria
were relied upon and will be provided free of charge to the applicant upon
request), if any. An application shall
be granted, or written notice of a denial shall be given to the applicant,
within 90 days (45 days in the case of a Disability Claim) after the Company
receives a proper application, unless special circumstances (which are matters
beyond the control of the Plan in the case of a Disability Claim) require an extension
of time for processing the application.
In no event shall such an extension exceed a period of 90 days (30 days
in the case of a Disability Claim) from the end of the initial 90-day period
(45-day period in the case of a Disability Claim). If such an extension is required, written
notice thereof shall be furnished to the applicant before the end of the
initial 90-day period (45-day period in the case of a Disability Claim)
indicating the circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which
the Company expects to render a decision.
If the Company determines that a decision on a Disability Claim cannot
be rendered within the initial 30-day extension period due to matters beyond
the control of the Plan, the period for making a determination may be extended
for an additional 30 days, provided that written notice is furnished to the
applicant before the end of the initial 30-day extension period indicating the
circumstances requiring an additional extension of time and the date by which
the Company expects to render a decision.
In the case of any extension with respect to a Disability Claim, the
notice of extension shall specifically explain the standards on which benefit
entitlement is based, the unresolved issues
42
that prevent a decision
on the Disability Claim, the additional information needed to resolve those
issues and that the applicant shall have a period of 45 days within which to
provide the specified information. For
purposes of this Article 13, “Disability Claim” shall mean a claim for
benefits under the Plan based on an applicant’s Total Disability pursuant to Section 2.1(rr)(3) of
the Plan.
13.3
Requests
for Review
Any person whose
application for benefits is denied in whole or in part (or such person’s duly
authorized representative) may appeal from the denial by submitting to the
Company a request for an independent review of such application within 60 days
(180 days in the case of a Disability Claim) after receiving written notice of
the denial. Such independent review
shall take into consideration all relevant documents and other information
submitted by the applicant, whether or not such information was submitted in
the initial benefit determination and, in the case of a Disability Claim, shall
be conducted without deference to the initial determination. The Company shall give the applicant (or such
applicant’s authorized representative), upon request and free of charge, copies
of and/or an opportunity to review pertinent documents (except legally
privileged materials) in preparing such request for review and an opportunity
to submit issues and comments in writing.
In the case of a Disability Claim, the Company shall identify each medical
or vocational expert whose advice was obtained in connection with such denial,
whether or not such advice was relied upon in making the denial. The request for review shall be in writing
and shall be addressed as follows:
Savings Investment Plan
PACCAR Inc
P.O. Box 1518
Bellevue, Washington 98009
The request for review
shall set forth all of the grounds on which it is based, all facts in support
of the request and any other matters which the applicant deems pertinent. The Company may require the applicant to
submit such additional facts, documents or other material as it may deem
necessary or appropriate in making its review.
Any review of a denied application shall be conducted in the name of the
Company by a panel of three or more individuals who did not take part in the
initial processing of such application and, in the case of a Disability Claim,
who are not subordinate to any person who took part in such initial
processing. The review panel shall be
the named fiduciary that has the authority to act with respect to any appeal
from a denial of a claim for benefits.
Any decision on appeal of a Disability Claim that is based in whole or
in part on a medical judgment shall be made in consultation with an appropriate
health care professional who did not take part in the initial processing of
such application and is not subordinate to any person who took part in such
initial processing.
13.4
Decision
on Review
The Company shall act
upon each request for review within 60 days (45 days in the case of Disability
Claim) after receipt thereof, unless special circumstances require an extension
of time for processing, but in no event shall the decision on review be
rendered more than 120
43
days (90 days in the case
of a Disability Claim) after the Company receives a proper request for
review. If such an extension is
required, written notice thereof shall be furnished to the applicant before the
end of the initial 60-day period (45-day period in the case of Disability
Claim). The Company shall give prompt,
written notice of its decision to the applicant. In the event that the Company confirms the
denial of the application for benefits in whole or in part, such notice shall
set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, the
specific reasons for such denial, specific references to the Plan provisions on
which the decision is based, a statement that the applicant (or the applicant’s
duly authorized representative) has the right, upon request and free of charge,
to receive copies of and/or to review all pertinent documents (other than
legally privileged documents), an explanation of the applicant’s right to
initiate a lawsuit under section 502(a) of ERISA, and, in the case of
a Disability Claim, each specific internal rule, guideline, protocol or other
similar criteria relied upon in making such denial (or a statement that such
criteria were relied upon and will be provided free of charge to the applicant
upon request). In the case of a
Disability Claim, such notice shall also include the following statement: “You and the Plan may have other voluntary
alternative dispute resolution options, such as mediation. One way to find out what may be available is
to contact the local U.S. Department of Labor Office and your State insurance
regulatory agency.”
13.5
Exhaustion
of Administrative Remedies; Limitations
No legal or equitable
action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the
claimant (a) has submitted a written application for benefits in
accordance with Section 13.1, (b) has been notified that the
application is denied, (c) has filed a written request for an independent
review of the application in accordance with Section 13.3 and (d) has
been notified in writing that the Company has affirmed the denial of the
application; provided, however, that such an action may be brought after the
Company has failed to act on the claim within a time period prescribed by
Sections 13.2 or 13.4.
