EXHIBIT 1

To

Award Agreement and Stock Power for

Restricted Stock



This Award Agreement evidences the grant of an Award for shares of Restricted Stock to Participant under the Plan.



Capitalized terms are defined in Section 7 of this Exhibit 1.



1. Shares of Restricted Stock; Adjustment



In the event of a declaration of a stock dividend or a stock split (whether effected as a dividend or otherwise) by the Company where the record date for
such dividend or stock split is after the Grant Date, the number of shares of Restricted Stock automatically will be adjusted proportionately to reflect the effect of such dividend or stock split. The number of shares of Restricted Stock will not be
adjusted to reflect cash dividends paid with respect to Companys common stock during the Restriction Period.



2. Terms of Award



This Award is subject to all the provisions of the Plan and to the following terms and conditions:



2.1 Restricted Stock. Subject to the Restrictions set forth in this
Section, the Company has granted the Restricted Stock to Participant as of the Grant Date as set forth on the Award Agreement and Stock Power.



2.1.1 Restrictions During Restriction Period. During the Restriction Period:



(a) Nontransferable. Participant may not sell, assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer or encumber the Award or the
Restricted Stock subject to the Award. Neither this Award nor the shares of Restricted Stock is transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. No assignment or transfer of the Award or the Restricted Stock in violation of
the foregoing restriction, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law or otherwise, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, will vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right whatsoever, but immediately upon any
attempt to assign or transfer the Award or the Restricted Stock, the Award will terminate and be of no force or effect. Whenever the word Participant is used in any provision of this Award Agreement under circumstances where the
provision should logically be construed to apply to the executor, administrator, or the person or persons to whom this Award or the Restricted Stock may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, it will be deemed to include
such person or persons.



---

(b) Forfeiture. Subject to Section 2.3 hereof and unless the Participant has an employment
agreement to the contrary, in the event Participant ceases to be an Employee of an Employer prior to the expiration of the Restriction Period, Participant will immediately and automatically forfeit all shares of Restricted Stock subject to the
Award, the Restricted Stock will automatically revert to the Company, and Participant will cease to have any rights as a stockholder with respect to such Restricted Stock.



2.1.2 Rights During Restriction Period. During the Restriction Period, Participant will have (except as expressly
provided in Section 2.1.1) all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock, including without limitation the right to exercise all voting rights with respect to the Restricted Stock and the right to receive cash dividends with
respect to the Restricted Stock. Stock dividends issued with respect to Restricted Stock will be treated as additional shares of Restricted Stock covered by the Award and will be subject to the same Restrictions.



2.1.3 Stock Certificates. Certificates for shares of Restricted Stock
subject to this Award Agreement will be issued in Participants name and held by the Company, together with an executed counterpart of the Award Agreement and Stock Power, until the Restrictions lapse at the expiration of the Restriction Period
or until the Restricted Stock is forfeited as provided in Section 2.1.1(b). During the Restriction Period, each certificate for shares of Restricted Stock will bear a legend in substantially the following form:



THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS,
INCLUDING POTENTIAL FORFEITURE, AND ARE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE DELTIC TIMBER CORPORATION 2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN, AND SHALL NOT BE ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF BY THE NAMED HOLDER, WHETHER BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, PRIOR TO

shares of Restricted Stock may also bear any other restrictive legends required by law or any other agreement.



2.2 Settlement of Award.



2.2.1 General. Upon the Vesting of shares of Restricted Stock under this Award due to expiration of the Restriction Period, this Award will be
settled on a settlement date as soon as practicable after the end of the Restriction Period by the delivery to Participant of a new stock certificate for the Vested shares of stock subject to the Award issued in Participants name, without the
legend described in Section 2.1.3, together with the Restricted Stock Award Agreement and Stock Power previously held by the Company.



---

2.2.2 Lapse of Restrictions. Upon settlement of the Award pursuant to Section 2.2.1, the stock
subject to the Award will no longer be subject to the Restrictions.



2.3 Employment Requirement; Accelerated Vesting.



2.3.1 General. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Sections 2.3.2, 2.3.3 or 2.3.4, if Participant ceases to be an Employee for any reason prior to the end of the Restriction Period, this Award will be canceled and Participant
will forfeit the Restricted Stock as provided in Section 2.1.1(b) and this Award will be cancelled and Participant will not receive any other payment with respect to this Award.



2.3.2 Death or Disability. In the event Participant dies or terminates Employment by reason of Disability prior to
the end of the Restriction Period, the Award and the Restricted Stock will be reduced to an amount reflecting the number of months from the Grant Date to the date of death or disability over 48, and will vest on such prorated basis at the end of the
Restriction Period.



2.3.3 Retirement. In the event
Participant elects to retire at normal retirement time and such termination of employment is prior to the end of the Restriction Period, the Restricted Stock will be reduced to an amount reflecting the number of months from the Grant Date to the
date of retirement over 48, and will vest on such prorated basis at the end of the Restriction Period.

will automatically become 100% vested as of the Change in Control.



2.4 Reimbursement. If or to the extent the accelerated Vesting of the Award in connection with a Change in Control pursuant to Section 2.3.4 results in an excess parachute payment within the meaning of Section 280G of the
Code, the Company will reimburse Participant, on an after-tax basis, for any excise tax imposed by Section 4999(a) of the Code that is directly attributable to such accelerated delivery.



2.5 Tax Gross Up. Upon vesting of an Award, the Company will pay to Participant an amount up to 50 percent of the
value of the Award at vesting to be applied on Participants behalf to federal and state income taxes and payroll taxes.



2.6 Other Documents. Participant will be required to furnish the Company such other documents or representations as the Company may require to
assure compliance with applicable laws and regulations as a condition of the Companys obligation to settle this Award.

Taxes; Tax Election



3.1Withholding Taxes.



3.1.1 General. Notwithstanding Section 2.5 above, Participant acknowledges that Participant is responsible for
payment of all federal, state, and local withholding taxes and Participants portion of all applicable payroll taxes imposed in connection with (i) the grant of the Award and the Restricted Stock, (ii) the vesting of the Restricted Stock, (iii)
an election by Participant under Code Section 83(b) with respect to this Award, and/or (iv) payment by Company of dividends with respect to the Restricted Stock during the Restriction Period (collectively, the Applicable Taxes).
Companys obligation to issue unrestricted stock in settlement of the Award is expressly conditioned on Participants making arrangements satisfactory to Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, for the payment of all Applicable
Taxes.



3.1.2 Method of Payment. Participant may pay to
Company (in cash or by check) an amount equal to the Applicable Taxes. In the event that Participant does not submit payment of the entire amount of Applicable Taxes, Participant expressly authorizes Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a)
to withhold all or a portion of the remaining balance of the Applicable Taxes from other amounts payable in cash (as compensation or otherwise) by Company or any Employer to Participant, and/or (b) to withhold a number of unrestricted shares (thus
reducing the number of unrestricted shares to be issued to Participant) having a fair market value (as of the date the Award is settled) equal to the remaining balance of the Applicable Taxes.



3.2 Effect of Tax Election. In the event Participant makes a timely
election under Code Section 83(b) with respect to this Award, the Restricted Stock will be deemed (for income tax purposes) to be transferred to Participant effective as of the Grant Date (and any obligation for withholding tax liability imposed by
subsequent changes in tax laws would be due as of the Grant Date). However, such an election will not effect the Restrictions or terminate the Restriction Period for the Award.



4. Conditions Precedent



The Company will use its best efforts to obtain approval of the Plan and this Award by any sate or federal agency or authority that the Company determines
has jurisdiction. If the Company determines that any required approval cannot be obtained, this Award will terminate on notice to Participant to that effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will not be required to issue any certificates
for Restricted Stock, or any portion thereof, until it has taken all action required to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws.
