the Grantee hereby agree as follows:
1. | Grant. The Company hereby credits to the Grantee’s Stock Unit Account ___ stock units (the “Grant”). The Grant represents the number of shares of Restricted Stock that the Non-Employee Director would have been granted pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan absent the Non-Employee’s election pursuant to the Plan to receive this Grant. The Grant constitutes the right, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, to a distribution of vested shares of PACCAR Common Stock. | |
2. | Vesting of Stock Units. The stock units subject to the Grant shall have the same restrictions and vesting provisions otherwise applicable to the grant of Restricted Stock in lieu of which the Grant is made.

3. | No Stockholder Rights. The Grantee has none of the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to the Grant and has no right to vote or to receive dividends (but may be eligible to receive dividend equivalents as described in Section 4 hereof). A holder of stock units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. | |
4. | Dividend Equivalents. In the event dividends are paid with respect to the Company’s Common Stock, the Grantee’s Stock Unit Account will be credited with dividend equivalents in stock units as if such dividends had been invested in additional shares of Common Stock at the Fair Market Value on the date such dividend is payable. |
