dividend on its Shares. Until such time as the Dividend Equivalents vest or are forfeited, interest shall be credited on the amount of such Dividend Equivalents held by the Company for the account of the Grantee from time to time at such rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Grantee shall vest at the same time as the underlying Restricted Stock Units, and payment of credited Dividend Equivalents, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be made at the time when the underlying Restricted Stock Units convert to Shares. In the event any Restricted Stock Units are forfeited under Section 9(c) hereof, any Dividend Equivalents credited to Grantee with respect to such forfeited Restricted Stock Units and any interest accrued thereon shall be forfeited to the Company, and the Grantee shall have no rights and the Company shall have no liability as to such Dividend Equivalents or interest.

Treatment of Cash Dividends. At the time of an Award of Restricted Stock Units, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine to provide the Grantee with the right to receive cash Dividend Equivalents with respect to the Restricted Stock Units subject to the Award, or a specified portion thereof. A “Dividend Equivalent” is an amount equal to the cash dividend payable per Share, if any, multiplied by the number of Shares then underlying the Award with respect to any cash dividends declared or paid by the Company while the Award is outstanding. Any such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Grantee at the time the Company pays any cash dividend on its Shares. Until such time as the Dividend Equivalents vest or are forfeited, interest may be credited on the amount of such Dividend Equivalents held by the Company for the account of the Grantee from time to time at such rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Grantee shall vest at the same time as the underlying Restricted Stock Units, and payment of credited Dividend Equivalents, together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be made at the time when the underlying Restricted Stock Units convert to Shares. In the event any Restricted Stock Units are forfeited under Section 9(c) hereof, any Dividend Equivalents credited to Grantee with respect to such forfeited Restricted Stock Units and any interest accrued thereon shall be forfeited to the Company, and the Grantee shall have no rights and the Company shall have no liability as to such Dividend Equivalents or interest.

Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the date of grant, any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: # Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be paid on the date or dates the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award to which such Dividend Equivalents relates, is satisfied under Section 6(e)(i), with such Dividend Equivalents to be accumulated, without interest, by the Company (the “Accumulated Dividend Equivalents”), # all Accumulated Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be paid in cash, and # any Accumulated Dividend Equivalents with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be forfeited and all rights of the Participant to such Accumulated Dividend Equivalents shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award to which such Accumulated Dividend Equivalents relate become vested pursuant to the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit Award and this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Award Agreement may specify whether any Dividend Equivalents shall be # paid at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant, or # converted to additional Restricted Stock Units that shall be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock Unit Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited. If the Participant may elect to defer the Dividend Equivalents, such election shall be made within 30 days after the grant date of the Restricted Stock Unit Award, but in no event later than 12 months before the first date on which any portion of such Restricted Stock Unit Award vests (or at such other times prescribed by the Committee as shall not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(e)(iii), Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with a Restricted Stock Unit 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 Restricted Stock Unit Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited.

Dividend Equivalent Payment. After a Vesting Date, Grantee shall be paid in cash the accumulated amount equivalent to the dividends which would have been paid on such Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units to the extent the Company’s Board of Directors had approved and declared a dividend on its Capital Stock. Such dividend equivalent amount shall be paid during the month following the applicable Vesting Date. Subject to paragraph 5 below, the dividend equivalent payment shall be forfeited for any Restricted Stock Units terminated under paragraph 5.

Right to Dividend Equivalents. Each recipient of Restricted Stock Units under this Plan shall have the right, during the period when such Restricted Stock Units are outstanding and prior to the termination, forfeiture or payment or settlement thereof, to receive dividend equivalents equal to the amount or value of any cash or other distributions or dividends payable on the same number of Shares. The Company shall accumulate dividend equivalents on each dividend payment date and, unless a Director has elected to defer receipt of such dividend equivalents pursuant to Section 11, pay such accumulated amounts without interest in December of each fiscal year, but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related dividend is declared.

9.3Voting Rights, Dividend Equivalent Rights and Distributions. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock represented by Restricted Stock Units until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). However, the Committee, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Restricted Stock Units that the Participant shall be entitled to accrue Dividend Equivalents with respect to the payment of cash dividends on Stock during the period beginning on the date such Award is granted and ending, with respect to the particular shares subject to the Award, on the earlier of the date the Award is settled or the date on which it is terminated. Such Dividend Equivalents, if any, may, as determined by the Committee, accrue in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units or as an unfunded cash balance in a notional account. Accrued Dividend Equivalents, if any, will only be paid to the extent that the Restricted Stock Units to which such accrued Dividend Equivalents relate become vested or are otherwise to be settled.

Dividend Equivalents. Until such time as the RSUs vest in full, the Grantee shall be credited with an amount equal to all cash and stock dividends (whether ordinary or extraordinary) (“Dividend Equivalents”) that would have been paid to the Grantee if one share of Stock had been issued on the Grant Date for each RSU granted to the Grantee as set forth in this Agreement and that remains outstanding. In its discretion, the Company may reinvest any cash Dividend Equivalents into additional shares of Stock. Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same vesting restrictions, forfeiture and other conditions as the RSUs to which they are attributable and shall be paid, if at all, on the same date that the RSUs to which they are attributable are settled in accordance with Section 2 hereof. Dividend Equivalents that are held for the benefit of the Grantee shall be distributed in cash or in the discretion of the Company, in shares of Stock based on the closing price of a share of Stock on the Vesting Date.

No Dividend or Voting Rights; Dividend Equivalents. Grantee shall have no rights of ownership in the Restricted Share Units or in the Shares related thereto and shall have no right to dividends and no right to vote the Restricted Share Units or the Shares related thereto until the date on which the Shares underlying the Restricted Share Units are delivered to Grantee. However, at each time from the Date of Grant through the applicable Vesting Date that the Company pays a cash dividend to shareholders, the Company shall credit Grantee’s account hereunder with a dividend equivalent amount equal to the amount of such cash dividend per Share multiplied by the number of outstanding unvested Restricted Share Units on the dividend payment date. Any such dividend equivalent amount shall be accumulated and paid in cash (without interest) only at the time(s) and to the extent that the underlying Restricted Share Units become vested, subject to and conditioned upon Grantee’s Continuous Service until such time.
