Subject to [Section 6(a)(10)], any entitlement to dividend equivalents or similar entitlements will be established and administered either consistent with an exemption from, or in compliance with, the applicable requirements of [Section 409A]. Dividends and dividend equivalent amounts payable in respect of Awards that are subject to restrictions may be subject to such limitations or restrictions as the Administrator may impose.

Payment of Dividend Equivalents. With respect to each of the PRSUs covered by this Agreement, the Holder shall be credited on the records of the Company with dividend equivalents in an amount equal to the amount per Common Share of any cash dividends declared by the Board on the outstanding Common Shares during the period beginning on the Date of Grant and ending either on the date on which the Holder receives payment for the PRSUs pursuant to Section 6 hereof or at the time when the PRSUs are forfeited in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement. These dividend equivalents will accumulate without interest and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will be paid in the form of Common Shares at the same time, to the same extent and in the same manner as the PRSUs for which the dividend equivalents were credited, based on the Market Value per Share on the trading day immediately preceding the date of payment.

Stockholder Rights; Dividend Equivalents. The Performance Units do not confer on you any rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until shares of Common Stock are in fact issued to you in connection with the vested Performance Units. However, cash dividends or other cash distributions, if any, shall be paid with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock that ultimately vest under this Agreement as if such shares of Common Stock had been outstanding during the entire period from the Grant Date to the Vesting Date. Any such cash dividends or other cash distributions shall vest and be paid in cash if and at such times the underlying Performance Units vested.

Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid or credited, as applicable, with respect to any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award, as determined by the Board and contained in the applicable Award Agreement; provided, however, that # no dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid with respect to any such shares before the date such shares have vested under the terms of such Award Agreement, # any dividends or dividend equivalents that are credited with respect to any such shares will be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to such shares under the terms of such Award Agreement (including, but not limited to, any vesting conditions), and # any dividends or dividend equivalents that are credited with respect to any such shares will be forfeited to the Company on the date, if any, such shares are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company due to a failure to meet any vesting conditions under the terms of such Award Agreement.

The Grantee shall have no rights of ownership in the Shares underlying the RSUs and no right to vote the Shares underlying the RSUs until the date on which the Shares underlying the RSUs are issued or transferred to the Grantee pursuant to Section 5 above.

Dividend Equivalents; Voting Rights. In the event that a cash dividend is paid with respect to shares of Stock prior to the Vesting Date (or such earlier date that the PBRSUs are settled hereunder), on the payment date of any such cash dividend the number of PBRSUs held by Participant shall be increased by that number of PBRSUs which is equal to # the number of outstanding PBRSUs then held by Participant on the record date of the cash dividend multiplied by # the amount of the cash dividend divided by # the fair market value of a share of Stock on the date the dividend is paid. Any PBRSUs that are credited to Participant under this Section 9 shall be treated in the same manner as the PBRSUs granted under Section 1 of this Agreement and shall only vest and be settled to the extent they vest in accordance with this Agreement and otherwise satisfy the requirements under this Agreement. Upon vesting, any fractional Shares shall be rounded up such that only whole Shares are issued. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, this Award shall not be interpreted to bestow upon Participant any equity interest or ownership in the Company prior to the date on which the Company delivers Shares and Participant shall not be entitled to any dividends (or, except as provided above, dividend equivalency rights) in respect of the PBRSUs or have any voting rights until and to the extent the PBRSUs vest and Shares are delivered in settlement of the PBRSUs. For avoidance of doubt, Participant shall only be entitled to dividend equivalent payments to the extent the underlying PBRSUs are earned and vested.
