PACCAR INC Medium-Term Notes, Series A DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

Exhibit 1.1

Medium-Term Notes, Series A

November 18, 2008

To the several Agents
who are signatories hereto

Dear Sirs:

PACCAR Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue from time to time its Medium-Term Notes, Series A (the “Securities”) to be issued pursuant to the indenture, dated as of November 18, 2008 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”). It is understood, however, that the Company may from time to time authorize the issuance of additional Securities and that such additional Securities may be sold pursuant to the terms of this Distribution Agreement (the “Agreement”), as though the issuance of such Securities were authorized as of the date hereof.

This Agreement provides both for the sale of Securities and any other securities that may be offered by post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined) by the Company directly to purchasers through the Agents, in which case the Agents will act as agents of the Company in soliciting Security purchasers, and (as may from time to time be agreed to by the Company and the Agents) to the Agents as principals for resale to purchasers. Additional terms of any sale of Securities to the Agents as principals will be set out in a Terms Agreement (as hereinafter defined) relating to such sale, all as more fully provided herein.

Subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and subject to the reservation by the Company of the right to sell Securities directly to investors on its own behalf or to one or more underwriters for resale to the public, the Company hereby (i) appoints the Agents as agents of the Company for the purpose of soliciting purchases of the Securities from the Company by others, (ii) agrees that it will sell Securities only to or through the Agents or other agents appointed from time to time by the Company pursuant to agreements having terms not more favorable to such agents or the Company than the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (iii) agrees that whenever the Company determines to sell Securities directly to the Agents as principals for resale to others, it will enter into a Terms Agreement relating to such sale in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof. The Company shall give the Agents prior notice of the appointment of any additional agents for the purpose of soliciting purchasers of the Securities. The Company will notify each Agent of the amount of Securities from time to time remaining unsold and of such other information as may be reasonably necessary to prevent inadvertent solicitations for sales in excess of the amount of Securities then remaining unsold.

SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties.

(a) The Company represents and warrants as of the date hereof (unless otherwise set forth below), as of the time of each acceptance by the Company of any offer for the purchase of any Securities (whether to an Agent as principal or through an Agent as agent) (each such time being an “Applicable Time”), as of the date of each delivery of the Securities (the date of each such delivery to an Agent as principal or through an Agent as agent is referred to as a “Settlement Date”), and as of any time that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented, and as of the times referred to in Sections 6(a), 6(b) and 6(c) hereof (each of the times referenced above is referred to herein as a “Representation Date”), as follows:

(iv) The Registration Statement became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e) of the Rules and Regulations (“Rule 462(e)”) on November 18, 2008, and any post-effective amendment thereto also became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e). No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with.

(v) At the respective times that the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto (including the filing of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Commission (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”)) became effective, at each deemed effective date with respect to the Agents pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the Rules and Regulations and at each Representation Date, the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Trust Indenture Act (the “Trust Indenture Act Regulations”) and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(vii) Any offer that is a written communication relating to the Securities made prior to the filing of the Registration Statement by the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this paragraph only, of Rule 163(c) of the Rules and Regulations) has been filed with the Commission in accordance with the exemption provided by Rule 163 of the Rules and Regulations (“Rule 163”) and such offer otherwise complied with the requirements of Rule 163, including, without limitation, the legending requirement, to qualify such offer for the exemption from Section 5(c) of the Act provided by Rule 163.

SECTION 2. Agents.

(a) Solicitations as Agent. On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, each Agent agrees, as agent of the Company, to use reasonable efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Securities upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus.

The Agents shall not appoint sub-agents. The Agents are authorized to engage the services of any other broker or dealer in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities purchased by the Agents as principal for resale to others, and the Agents may allow any portion of the discount they have received in connection with such purchases from the Company to such brokers or dealers.

The Agents shall offer the Securities at such times, in such amounts and maturities and at such rates of interest as the Company shall authorize, but the Company shall not approve the solicitation of purchases of Securities in excess of the amount which shall be authorized by the Company from time to time or in excess of the principal amount of Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Agent will have no responsibility for maintaining records with respect to the aggregate principal amount of Securities sold, or of otherwise monitoring the availability of Securities for sale under the Registration Statement. The Agents shall furnish a copy of the Prospectus to each offeree to the extent required by the Act. The Agents shall not offer to sell to or solicit offers to buy from any person in any state or jurisdiction otherwise than in conformity with the Blue Sky Memorandum referred to in Section 4.

The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend solicitation of purchases of the Securities, commencing at any time, for a period of time or permanently. Promptly after receipt of telephonic or written notice from the Company, the Agents will suspend solicitation of purchases of the Securities from the Company until such time as the Company has advised them that such solicitation may be resumed. Following any such notice, until such time as the Company shall notify the Agents, telephonically or in writing, to recommence solicitation of purchases of the Securities, the Company shall not be required to comply with the requirements of Sections 6(b), 6(c) and 6(d) hereof. Promptly after providing telephonic or written notice to the Agents to recommence such solicitation, the Company shall provide to the Agents such certificates, opinions and letters as generally described in Sections 6(b), 6(c) and 6(d) as the Agents may reasonably request or as may be specified in any applicable Terms Agreement.

Promptly upon the closing of the sale of any Securities, the Company agrees to pay the appropriate Agent a commission (or allow such Agent a discount) in the currency in which such Securities are denominated equal to a percentage of the principal amount of each of the Securities sold by the Company as a result of a solicitation made by such Agent during the term of this Agreement as set forth in Schedule A hereto, unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such Agent and set forth in the Pricing Supplement relating to such Securities.

The Agents are authorized to solicit orders for the Securities in such denominations (in U.S. dollars or in another currency), upon such terms and at such prices as the Company shall authorize and shall be set forth in a pricing supplement to the Prospectus to be prepared following each acceptance by the Company of an offer for the purchase of Securities. Unless otherwise specifically authorized, the Agents shall solicit orders only for the purchase of Securities (i) at 100 percent of their principal amount and (ii) denominated in U.S. dollars in the amount of $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000. Each Agent shall communicate to the Company, orally or in writing, each reasonable offer to purchase Securities received by it as Agent. The Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase the Securities and may in its absolute discretion reject any such offer in whole or in part.

The Company shall have no liability to any Agent for any commission for its rejection of any offer or its failure to consummate any sale. Each Agent shall have the right, in its discretion reasonably exercised, to reject any offer to purchase the Securities received by it in whole or in part, and any such rejection shall not be deemed a breach of its agreement contained herein.

(b) Purchases as Principal. Each sale of Securities to an Agent as principal shall be made in accordance with the terms contained herein and (unless the Company and the Agent shall otherwise agree) in a separate agreement which will provide for the sale of such Securities to, and the purchase and reoffering thereof by, the Agent. Each such separate agreement (which may be an oral agreement) between an Agent and the Company is herein referred to as a “Terms Agreement.” Unless the context otherwise requires, each reference contained herein to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to include any applicable Terms Agreement between the Company and an Agent. Each such Terms Agreement, whether oral or in writing, shall be with respect to such information (as applicable) as is specified in Exhibit A hereto. An Agent’s commitment to purchase Securities as principal pursuant to any Terms Agreement or otherwise shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each Terms Agreement shall specify (i) the principal amount of Securities to be purchased by such Agent pursuant thereto, (ii) the price to be paid to the Company for such Securities (which shall be at a discount, if any, as specified in a Terms Agreement), (iii) the time and place of delivery of and payment for such Securities, (iv) any provisions relating to the rights of and any default by any broker or dealer acting together with such Agent in the reoffering of the Securities, and (v) such other provisions (including further terms of the Securities) as may be mutually agreed upon. The Agents may utilize a selling or dealer group in connection with the resale of the Securities purchased and may reallow to any broker or dealer any portion of the discount or commission payable pursuant hereto. Such Terms Agreement shall also specify the requirements for the stand-off agreement, officer’s certificate, opinions of counsel and comfort letter pursuant to Sections 3(m), 5(b), 5(c), 5(e) and 5(f) hereof.

Securities to be purchased by an Agent as principal are herein called the “Purchased Securities.” Purchased Securities will be represented by a global certificate (the “Book-Entry Securities”) registered in the name of the depositary (the “Depositary”) specified in the Prospectus or by certificates issued in definitive form (the “Certificated Securities”). Delivery of Certificated Securities shall be made to the Agent and delivery of Book-Entry Securities shall be made to the Trustee as agent for the Depositary for the account of the Agent, in either case, against payment by the Agent of the purchase price to or upon the order of the Company in the funds specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. Certificated Securities shall be registered in such names and in such denominations as the Agent may request not less than two full business days prior to the applicable Closing Date (as defined below). The Company will have Certificated Securities available for inspection, checking and packaging by the Agent in the city in which delivery and payment is to occur, not later than 2 p.m., on the business day prior to the applicable Closing Date.

If the Company and two or more Agents enter into an agreement pursuant to which such Agents agree to purchase Securities from the Company as principal and one or more of such Agents shall fail on the Closing Date to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase (the “Defaulted Securities”), then the nondefaulting Agents shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one of them or one or more other Agents or underwriters to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; provided, however, that if such arrangements shall not have been completed within such 24-hour period, then:

(a) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be so purchased by all of such Agents on the Closing Date, the nondefaulting Agents shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective initial underwriting obligations bear to the underwriting obligations of all nondefaulting Agents; or

(b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be so purchased by all of such Agents on the Closing Date, such agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any nondefaulting Agent.

No action taken pursuant to this paragraph shall relieve any defaulting Agent from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of such agreement, either the nondefaulting Agents or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

(c) Administrative Procedures. Administrative procedures respecting the sale of Securities shall be agreed upon from time to time by the Agents and the Company (the “Procedures”). The several Agents and the Company agree to perform the respective duties and obligations specifically provided to be performed by each of them herein and in the Procedures.

(d) Closing Date. The documents required to be delivered by Section 5 hereof shall be delivered at the offices of Sidley Austin LLP, 787 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, xx the date hereof or, with respect to any particular Agent, such other date and time as such Agent and the Company may agree upon in writing (the “Closing Date”).

(e) Other Debt Securities. Nothing contained herein, other than Section 3(m) hereof, shall limit the right of the Company to authorize and issue debt securities, including medium-term notes other than the Securities, under the Indenture or otherwise.

(f) Reliance. The Company and the Agents agree that any Securities the placement of which the Agents arrange shall be placed by the Agents, and any Securities purchased by an Agent shall be purchased, in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company contained herein and on the terms and conditions and in the manner provided herein.

SECTION 3. Covenants of the Company.

The Company covenants and agrees:

(a) To furnish promptly to each Agent a signed copy of the Registration Statement as filed with the Commission and each amendment or supplement thereto, and a copy of the General Disclosure Package and each Prospectus with respect to the Securities filed with the Commission, including all supplements thereto and all documents incorporated therein by reference, and all consents and exhibits filed therewith. The Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and the Prospectus and each amendment and supplement thereto so furnished to the Agents will be identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to XXXXX, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(b) To deliver promptly to each Agent such number of the following documents as each Agent may reasonably request: (i) conformed copies of the Registration Statement and any new registration statement (excluding exhibits other than the computation of the ratios of earnings to fixed charges, the Indenture and this Agreement), (ii) the General Disclosure Package and Prospectus with respect to the Securities, and (iii) any documents incorporated by reference in any Prospectus with respect to the Securities (excluding exhibits).

(c) To file with the Commission, during any period in which any Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities, any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, any new registration statement or any Prospectus that is required by the Act or the Rules and Regulations, and all documents, and any amendments to previously filed documents, required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

(d) Prior to filing with the Commission during any period in which the Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Securities (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 of the Act) (i) any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and any new registration statement, (ii) any Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (iii) any document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or any amendment of or supplement to any such incorporated document, to furnish a copy thereof to the counsel for the Agents and to allow the Agents and counsel for the Agents a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon and, between the date of delivery of any Terms Agreement and the Settlement Date with respect to such Terms Agreement, not to file any such document to which the applicable agent reasonably objects. Unless otherwise notified by the Agents, the Company will prepare a final term sheet (the “Final Term Sheet”) reflecting the final terms of an offering of Securities, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agents, and shall file such Final Term Sheet as an “issuer free writing prospectus” pursuant to Rule 433 prior to the close of business within two days following the date such final terms are established.

(e) To advise each Agent promptly (i) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any new registration statement relating to or covering the Securities becomes effective, (ii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the filing of any new registration statement or any Prospectus, to any document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or for any additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or such new registration statement or any order directed to any Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or the initiation or threat of any stop order proceeding or of any challenge by the Commission to the accuracy or adequacy of any document incorporated by reference in any Prospectus or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Act concerning the Registration Statement, (v) of receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose, (vi) of the occurrence of any event which causes the Registration Statement or such new registration statement or the General Disclosure Package or any Prospectus to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, and (vii) any change in the rating assigned by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) to the Program or any debt securities (including the Securities) of the Company, or the public announcement by any NRSRO that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of the Program or any such debt securities, or the withdrawal by an NRSRO of its rating of the Program or any such debt securities.

The Company will effect all filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus (including, without limitation, any pricing supplement) transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus (including, without limitation, any pricing supplement). The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

(f) The Company shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the Rules and Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the Rules and Regulations (including, if applicable, by updating the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or on the cover page of a prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)).

(g) If, during any period in which the Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 of the Act), the Commission shall issue a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, to make every reasonable effort to obtain the lifting of that order at the earliest possible time.

(h) To make generally available to its security holders, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 90 days after each twelve-month period identified below, an earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act, which need not be certified by independent certified public accountants unless required by the Act or the Rules and Regulations) covering the twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the fiscal quarter next following each date which (i) under Section 11(a) of the Act and the Rules and Regulations is an effective date of the Registration Statement for purposes of said Section 11(a), and (ii) is not later than the last sale hereunder.

(i) So long as any of the Securities are outstanding, to furnish to each Agent not later than the time the Company makes the same generally available to others, copies of all reports and financial statements furnished by the Company to any securities exchange on which the Securities are listed pursuant to requirements of or agreements with such exchange or to the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation of the Commission thereunder.

(j) To endeavor, in cooperation with the Agents, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions of the United States as we may agree upon and to maintain such qualifications in effect for as long as may be required for the distribution of the Securities. The Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the laws of each jurisdiction in which the Securities have been qualified as above provided.

(k) The Company will prepare, with respect to any Securities to be sold through or to the Agents pursuant to this Agreement, a Pricing Supplement with respect to such Securities in a form previously approved by the Agents and will file the Prospectus, including such Pricing Supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) (or any rule succeeding or replacing such rule) under the Act not later than the close of business of the Commission on the fifth business day after the date on which such Pricing Supplement is first used.

(l) If at any time during the term of this Agreement any event shall occur or any condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Agents or counsel for the Company, to further amend or supplement the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package in order that the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package is delivered to a purchaser, or if it shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of either of such counsel, to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package or to file a new registration statement in order to comply with the requirements of the Act or the Rules and Regulations, immediate notice shall be given, and confirmed in writing, to the Agents to cease the solicitation of offers to purchase the Securities in the Agents’ capacity as agent and to cease sales of any Securities the Agents may then own as principal pursuant to a Terms Agreement, and the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission such amendment or supplement or a new registration statement, whether by filing documents pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Act or otherwise, as may be necessary to correct such untrue statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement, any new registration statement and Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package comply with such requirements. The Company shall not be required to comply with the provisions of this subsection during any period from the time (i) the Agents shall have suspended solicitation of purchases of the Securities in their capacity as agents pursuant to a request from the Company and (ii) the Agents shall not then hold any Securities as principal purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement, to the time the Company shall determine that solicitation of purchases of the Securities should be resumed or shall subsequently enter into a new Terms Agreement with the Agents. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement relating to the Securities or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Agents and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(m) If provided in a Terms Agreement, between the date of such Terms Agreement and the Settlement Date with respect to such Terms Agreement, the Company will not offer or sell, or enter into any agreement to sell, any debt securities of the Company (other than the Securities that are to be sold pursuant to such Terms Agreement and commercial paper for other short-term debt with an original maturity of 270 days or less in the ordinary course of business) without such Agent’s prior consent.

(n) The Company will use the net proceeds received by it from the issuance and sale of the Securities in the manner specified in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(o) The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Agents, and each Agent represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission; provided, however, that prior to the preparation of the Final Term Sheet in accordance with Section 4(b), the Agents are authorized to use the information with respect to the final terms of the applicable Securities in communications conveying information relating to the applicable offering of Securities to investors. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Agent(s) is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping; provided, however, that any such treatment shall not convert a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus that would not otherwise constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus into an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus solely due to such treatment. Any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall be considered to be an Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer and the Agents.

SECTION 4. Payment of Expenses.

The Company will pay (i) the costs incident to its authorization, issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection, (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Act of the Registration Statement, any new registration statement and any amendments and exhibits thereto, (iii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing of any document and any amendments and exhibits thereto required to be filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, (iv) the costs of furnishing to the Agents copies of the Registration Statement filed and each amendment and post-effective amendment thereof (including exhibits), any preliminary prospectus, Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or Prospectus, any supplement to the Prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing documents, (v) the fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel, (vi) the cost of any filings with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., in respect of the Securities, (vii) the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Company, (viii) any fees payable to rating agencies in connection with the rating of the Securities, (ix) the fees and expenses of qualifying the Securities under the securities laws of the several jurisdictions as provided in this Agreement and of preparing and printing a Blue Sky Memorandum and a memorandum concerning the legality of the Securities as an investment (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Agents in connection therewith), and (x) all other costs and expenses incident to the Company’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

In addition, the Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of Sidley Austin LLP, counsel for the Agents in connection with the sale of the Securities.

SECTION 7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each person, if any, who at the written request of such Agent and with the consent of the Company is participating with such Agent as the Company’s agent in the distribution of the Securities who is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Act with respect to the distribution of the Securities (the “Participants”) and each director, officer or other person, if any, who controls such Agent or any Participant within the meaning of the Act from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, and any action in respect thereof, to which such Agent or such Participant or controlling person may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, the Registration Statement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, General Disclosure Package or any Prospectus, or arises out of, or is based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse such Agent, each such Participant, and each such controlling person for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred, as they are incurred, by it in investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Registration Statement or any Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Agent specifically for inclusion therein; and provided, further, that this indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Agent, any Participant, or any director, officer or other person, if any, controlling such Agent or any Participant, on account of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising from the sale of Securities to any person by such Agent or such Participant if (i) prior to the Applicable Time for such Securities, the Company shall have notified such Agent that the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package has been amended, that such amendment is a material change and that such Agent must use such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package, in lieu of the prior Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package, and, prior to the Applicable Time for such Securities, the Company shall have filed such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package with the Commission, (ii) such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package was conveyed to such Agent sufficiently in advance of the Applicable Time so that such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package could have been conveyed to such person prior to the Applicable Time, (iii) such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package (excluding any document then incorporated or deemed incorporated therein by reference) was not conveyed to such person prior to the Applicable Time, and (iv) such amended Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or General Disclosure Package would have cured the defect giving rise to such losses, liabilities, costs or claims.

The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Agent or any Participant or any controlling person.

(b) Each Agent shall severally indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any person who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, and any action in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Registration Statement, or any Prospectus, or arises out of, or is based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Agent specifically for inclusion therein, and shall reimburse the Company for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred, as they are incurred, by the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person in investigating or defending or preparing to defend against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which any Agent may otherwise have to the Company or any of its directors, officers or controlling persons.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.

After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnified party shall have the right to employ a separate counsel and one local counsel to represent such indemnified party who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the indemnified party against the indemnifying party under this Section if, in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party, it is advisable for such indemnified party to be represented by separate counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel or such local counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by such indemnified party has been authorized by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in the conduct of the defense of such action or additional or different defenses such that the counsel retained by the indemnifying party to defend the indemnified party in such action cannot adequately represent the interests of the indemnified party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the fees and expense of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any claim or action settled without its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section shall for any reason (other than as specified herein) be unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 7(a) or 7(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party from the offering of the Securities, the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and an Agent on the other with respect to an offering shall be determined in light of the relation of the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company to the total commissions received by the Agent with respect to such offering. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by an Agent, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 7(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 7(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7(d), no Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Purchased Securities were offered by it to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which it shall have otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) Each Agent represents for purposes of Sections 7(a) and 7(b) that it has received a copy of the form of Prospectus the Company proposes to file with the Commission with respect to the Securities and that the Agent will be soliciting offers to purchase the Securities (subject to the conditions hereof) for sale as described therein.

SECTION 8. Assistance by the Agents.

Each Agent will make reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by each purchaser whose offer to purchase Securities from the Company has been solicited by the Agent and accepted by the Company, but such Agent shall have no liability to the Company in the event any such purchase is not consummated for any reason.

SECTION 9. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.

All representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent or any person controlling any Agent or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive each delivery of and payment for any of the Securities.

SECTION 10. Termination.

(a) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate when the Agents shall have been advised by the Company that all of the Securities have been sold and the purchase price therefor has been paid and the Securities delivered to the purchasers thereof. This Agreement may be terminated (except with respect to offers to purchase Securities which have been accepted by the Company or a Terms Agreement has been executed) for any reason, at any time, by either the Company or such Agent, upon the giving of one day’s written or telegraphic notice of such termination to the other.

(b) Termination of a Terms Agreement. An Agent may terminate any Terms Agreement, immediately upon notice to the Company, at any time prior to the Settlement Date relating thereto (i) if there has been, since the date of such Terms Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs, management or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there shall have occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets or any material interruption in the clearance and settlement systems in the United States or, if such Securities are denominated and/or payable in, or indexed to, one or more foreign currencies, in the international financial markets, or any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis or any change or development or event involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of such Agent(s), impracticable to market the Securities or enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended by the Commission or a national securities exchange, or if trading generally on either the American Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by either of said exchanges or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority, or if a banking moratorium shall have been declared by either Federal or New York authorities or if a banking moratorium shall have been declared by the relevant authorities in the country or countries of origin of any foreign currency or currencies in which the Securities are denominated or payable, or (iv) if the rating assigned by any NRSRO to any debt securities of the Company as of the date of any applicable Terms Agreement shall have been lowered since that date or if any such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of any debt securities of the Company, or (v) if there shall have come to such Agent’s attention any facts that would cause such Agent to believe that the Prospectus, at the time it was required to be delivered to a purchaser of Securities, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances existing at the time of such delivery, not misleading.

(c) General. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, neither party will have any liability to the other party hereto, except that (i) the Agents shall be entitled to any commission earned in accordance with the fourth paragraph on Section 2(a) hereof, (ii) if at the time of termination (A) an Agent shall own any Securities purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement with the intention of reselling them or (B) an offer to purchase any of the Securities has been accepted by the Company but the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent of the Security or Securities relating thereto has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Sections 3 and 6 hereof shall remain in effect until such Securities are so resold or delivered, as the case may be, and (iii) the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Section 7 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 9 and 13 hereof shall remain in effect.

SECTION 11. Notices.

Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Agents shall be directed as set forth below their respective signatures hereto. Notices to the Company shall be directed to it as follows: PACCAR Inc, 000 000xx Xxxxxx X.X., Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Treasurer.

SECTION 12. Parties.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the several Agents and the Company and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein or therein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and said controlling persons and officers and directors of their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

SECTION 13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Company, on the one hand, and the Agent(s), on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the offerings contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Agent is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent (except to the extent expressly set forth herein) or fiduciary of the Company or its stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (iii) no Agent has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offerings contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Agent has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Agent has any obligation to the Company with respect to any offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Agent(s) and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company, and (v) no Agent has provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offerings contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

SECTION 14. GOVERNING LAW; FORUM.

THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES. ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY AGAINST ANY AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT SOLELY IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, THE CITY OF NEW YORK.
