Award of Restricted Stock Units. A record of the Units awarded hereunder (the “Units”) shall be evidenced by the Company in restricted book entry accounts maintained for the Employee with the Company’s transfer agent, or such other administrator designated by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”), subject to such restrictions and other terms deemed appropriate by the Committee to be applicable to such Award (the “Restrictions”), until all the Restrictions specifically set forth in this Agreement and in Section 9 of the Plan with respect to the Units shall expire or be canceled. Upon the lapse of Restrictions relating to any Units, the Company shall deliver to the participant certificates for the Shares underlying the vested Units (or an applicable book entry shall be made in the restricted book entry account maintained for the Employee for the Shares underlying the vested Units). The Units shall have no voting rights. The Units shall be credited with Dividend Equivalents as set forth in Section 9 of the Plan. However, Dividend Equivalents paid with respect to Shares underlying the Units shall be credited to a restricted book entry account maintained on the Employee’s behalf until the Restrictions with respect to the Units upon which such Dividend Equivalents were paid expire or are canceled, at which time the Company shall evidence the delivery to the Employee of all such Dividend Equivalents, with interest if any. If the Employee forfeits any Units awarded hereunder, such Units and any Dividend Equivalents credited with respect thereto, with interest, if any, shall automatically revert to the Company (without any payment by the Company to the Employee) and shall no longer be reflected in the restricted book entry account for the Employee.
