Dividend Equivalents. During the Vesting Period, Dividend Equivalents will be credited on the RSUs in the form of additional RSUs. At the end of the Vesting Period, the RSUs plus RSUs representing any accrued Dividend Equivalents will be paid to you in the form of Shares. Any fractional Shares accrued from Dividend Equivalents, if applicable, will be paid in cash.

Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents will be earned with respect to any Shares issued pursuant to the Award. The amount of Dividend Equivalents earned shall be equal to the total dividends declared on a Share for stockholders of record between the Grant Date of this Award and the vesting date of the RSUs, multiplied by the number of Shares issued pursuant to the vesting of the RSUs awarded in the Award Agreement. Any Dividend Equivalents earned shall be paid in cash when the Shares to which they relate are issued or as soon thereafter as practicable, but no later than 60 days after the Shares are issued. No Dividend Equivalents will be issued for unvested or forfeited RSUs.

Dividend Equivalents. The Company will establish an amount for each RSU equal to the per Share quarterly dividend payments made to Shareholders during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the date that such RSU vests or is cancelled (“Dividend Equivalents”). The Company shall accumulate Dividend Equivalents and, upon vesting of the related RSU, will pay the Grantee a single lump sum cash amount equal to the Dividend Equivalents on the same date that a share is delivered with respect to such RSU, as described in Section 4 of this Grant Agreement. Any accumulated and unpaid Dividend Equivalents attributable to a RSU that is cancelled are immediately forfeited upon cancellation and will not be paid.

Dividend Equivalents. Prior to the Distribution Date, the RSUs shall be credited with dividend equivalents in an amount equal to the dividends paid on the Company’s Common Stock. Such dividend equivalents shall be credited to a bookkeeping account established by the Company under the Plan in Your name in each calendar quarter prior to the Distribution Date that the Company pays a dividend on its outstanding Shares of Common Stock. Amounts credited to this account shall be credited with a quarterly rate equal to the dividend payment rate with dividends invested as of the last business day of each quarter and share price equal to the average of the high and low actual sale prices of the Company’s Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date the transaction is credited. Amounts accumulated in this account shall be proportionately distributed to You in Shares at the same time that the Shares related to the RSUs are distributed to You. Such dividend equivalents shall Vest in accordance with the Vesting of the underlying Award.

Dividend Equivalents. The Company will establish an amount for each RSU equal to the per share quarterly dividend payments made to the Company’s shareholders during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the date that such RSU vests or is cancelled (“Dividend Equivalents”). The Company shall accumulate Dividend Equivalents and, upon vesting of the related RSU, will pay the Grantee a single lump sum cash amount equal to the Dividend Equivalents on the same date that a share of Common Stock is delivered with respect to such RSU, as described in Section 4 of this Grant Agreement.

Dividend Equivalents. Any cash or Common Stock dividends paid on shares of Common Stock underlying an RSU prior to the Settlement Date for such RSU shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on your behalf (any such credited amount, a “Dividend Equivalent”). Any cash Dividend Equivalents shall not be deemed to be reinvested in shares of Common Stock and will be held uninvested and without interest. Your right to receive any Dividend Equivalents with respect to cash dividends shall vest only if and when the related RSU vests, and an amount equal to such cash dividends shall be paid to you in cash on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related RSU is settled. Your right to receive any Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends of Common Stock shall vest only if and when the related RSU vests, and on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related RSU is settled you will be paid an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock underlying such dividend as of the applicable Settlement Date. Prior to the payment thereof, any Dividend Equivalents will be encompassed within the term “Award” with respect to the relevant RSUs.

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.

Dividend Equivalents. Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and in the Plan, the Company hereby awards to the Grantee a right to receive in respect of each RSU held by the Grantee on a dividend record date occurring after the Grant Date and prior to the Vest Date, the equivalent value of any ordinary cash dividends that are paid on a share of Common Stock (“Dividend Equivalent”). Dividend Equivalents will be reinvested in the form of additional RSUs determined by dividing the value of the Dividend Equivalent by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Company’s dividend payment date. Dividend Equivalents will also accrue on the additional RSUs issued from Dividend Equivalents (and be reinvested into additional Dividend Equivalents). Dividend Equivalents are subject to the same conditions as the RSUs to which they are attributable, including but not limited to vesting, transferability, forfeiture, time and form of settlement as further described in this Agreement and the Plan.

Dividend Equivalents. Any cash or Common Stock dividends paid on shares of Common Stock underlying an RSU prior to the Settlement Date for such RSU shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on your behalf (any such credited amount, a “Dividend Equivalent”).

Your right to receive any Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends of Common Stock shall vest only if and when the related RSU vests, and on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related RSU is settled you will be paid an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock underlying such dividend as of the applicable Settlement Date.

Dividend Equivalents. The Employee shall become entitled to receive from the Company on each applicable Vesting Date (or such earlier date provided in Section 8) a cash payment equaling the same amount(s) that the holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of vested RSUs (if any) would have been entitled to receive as dividends on such Common Stock during the period commencing on the effective date hereof and ending on each applicable Vesting Date (or such earlier date provided in Section 8) as provided under Section 3. Payments under this Section shall be net of any required withholding taxes.
