Dividend Equivalents. The Administrator, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Award (other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) that the Participant will be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents with respect to the payment of cash dividends on Shares having a record date prior to the date on which the Awards are settled or forfeited. The Dividend Equivalents, if any, will be credited to an Award in such manner and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion subject to the provisions of this Section 14; provided, however that Dividend Equivalents will be subject to the same vesting provisions as the Awards to which they relate and while amounts may accrue while the Dividend Equivalent is unvested, the amounts payable with respect to Dividend Equivalents will not be paid before the Dividend Equivalent or the Award to which it relates vests. In the event of a dividend or distribution paid in Shares or any other adjustment made upon a change in the capital structure of the Company as described in Section 17, appropriate adjustments will be made to the Participant’s Award and the associated Dividend Equivalent so that it represents the right to receive upon settlement any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than normal cash dividends) to which the Participant would be entitled by reason of the consideration issuable upon settlement of the Award, and all such new, substituted or additional securities or other property will be immediately subject to the same vesting and settlement conditions as are applicable to the Award. Dividend Equivalents will be subject to the same Fiscal Year limits applicable to the underlying Award as set forth in Section 6(d).

Dividend Equivalents. Holder will be entitled to receive dividend equivalents with respect to the Award to the extent that the Company pays dividends on Company Common Stock during the Performance Period. Such dividend equivalents will be equal to the cash dividends (if any) that would have been paid to Holder for the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award had such shares been issued and outstanding on the dividend record date occurring during the Performance Period. Dividend equivalents (if any) will be subject to the same vesting conditions as the Performance Shares and will be paid to Holder in cash at the same time as the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award are delivered.

Dividend Equivalents. Subject to Section 10.2 hereof, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be earned by a Holder of Restricted Stock Units based on dividends declared on the Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date an Award of Restricted Stock Units is granted to a Holder and the maturity date of such Award.

Dividend Equivalents. Subject to Section 9.2, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be earned by a Holder of Restricted Stock Units based on dividends declared on the Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date an Award of Restricted Stock Units is granted to a Holder and the maturity date of such Award.

Dividend Equivalents. Any Employee or Director selected by the Committee may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared on Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date a Restricted Stock Unit, Deferred Stock or Performance Award is granted, and the date such Restricted Stock Unit, Deferred Stock or Performance Award is settled, vests or expires, as determined by the Committee. Payments pursuant thereto shall be delivered, in the discretion of the Committee, either # to the Holder, or # to the Escrow Holder, to be held for the benefit of the Holder in a bookkeeping account or such other actual or deemed investment vehicle as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or, if not set forth therein, as may be determined by the Committee in its discretion, until settlement, vesting or expiration thereof. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional shares of Common Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Committee.

Dividends or Dividend Equivalents. If specified in the Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award (other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights) may be entitled to receive dividends or Dividend Equivalents with respect to the Shares or other securities covered by an Award. The terms and conditions of a Dividend Equivalent right may be set forth in the Award Agreement. Dividends or Dividend Equivalents credited to a Participant may be reinvested in additional Shares or other securities of the Company at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date that such dividend was paid to shareholders, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in no event will a dividend or Dividend Equivalent become payable with respect to an Award that becomes vested # based on the satisfaction of performance criteria before the date, and only to the extent, that such performance criteria are satisfied, or # based on continued service with the Company before the applicable vesting date.

Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to any Eligible Person entitling the Eligible Person to receive cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property equal in value to the dividends paid with respect to a specified number of Shares, or other periodic payments. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded on a free-standing basis or in connection with another Award. Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 7(h) hereof, the Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be paid or distributed when accrued or at some later date, or whether such Dividend Equivalents shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares, Awards, or other investment vehicles, and subject to such restrictions on transferability and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. Any such determination by the Committee shall be made at the grant date of the applicable Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with an Award that vests based on the achievement of performance goals shall be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited.
