Dividend Equivalents. At the same time that the Restricted Stock Units are converted to shares of Stock and distributed to the Grantee as set forth in Paragraph 3 above, the Company shall pay to the Grantee a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of the dividends that would have been payable between the date hereof and the date of such distribution with respect to a number of shares of Stock equal to the number of shares then distributable (equitably adjusted by the Committee to take into account any stock splits, reverse splits, mergers, recapitalizations or similar events occurring during such period), plus the Accrued Dividend Equivalents. If or to the extent the Restricted Stock Units are forfeited, dividend equivalent payments will not be made under this Paragraph 4.

Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. At the discretion of the Committee and as described in the Award Agreement, dividends issued on Shares of Restricted Stock may be paid immediately or withheld and deferred in the Participant’s account. In the event of a payment of dividends on Common Stock, to the extent permissible under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may credit Restricted Stock Units with Dividend Equivalents. Except as otherwise described in the Award Agreement or determined by the Committee, Dividend Equivalents may be withheld and deferred in the Participant’s account subject to a vesting schedule, or used to credit additional Restricted Stock Units that vest on the same schedule and subject to any other conditions as the underlying Restricted Stock Units. The Committee shall determine any terms and conditions on deferral of Dividend Equivalents.

Dividend Equivalents. As long as Participant holds Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement on the applicable record date, the Company shall credit to Participant, on each date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Common Stock generally, an additional number of Restricted Stock Units (“Additional Restricted Stock Units”) equal to the total number of whole Restricted Stock Units and Additional Restricted Stock Units previously credited to Participant under this Agreement multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock by the Company on such date, divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such date. Any fractional Restricted Stock Unit resulting from such calculation shall be included in the Additional Restricted Stock Units. A report showing the number of Additional Restricted Stock Units so credited shall be sent to Participant periodically, as determined by the Company. The Additional Restricted Stock Units so credited shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement and the Additional Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited in the event that the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the dividend equivalents were credited are forfeited.

Any additional shares covered by the Restricted Stock Unit Award credited by reason of such dividend equivalents will be subject to all of the same terms and conditions of the underlying Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement to which they relate.

Any additional shares covered by the Restricted Stock Unit Award credited by reason of such dividend equivalents will be subject to all of the same terms and conditions of the underlying Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement to which they relate.

Section # Voting Rights and Dividends. The Grantee shall be credited with cash dividend equivalents with respect to each Restricted Stock Unit outstanding at the time (and in the amount) of any payment of dividends to stockholders on a share of Stock in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan, and such dividend equivalents shall accumulate and be paid (in cash, without interest) to the Grantee when and only if the Restricted Stock Units to which they relate become vested and are settled in accordance with this Agreement. The Grantee shall not have any voting rights with respect to the Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units prior to the issuance of the Distributed Shares. A holder of Distributed Shares shall have full dividend and voting rights as a holder of Stock.
