Dividend Equivalents. Dividends, if any (whether in cash or Shares), will not be credited to Employee.

Dividend Equivalents. Restricted Stock Units may provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents, provided that any dividend equivalents accrued by the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Unit shall be paid to the Participant only if and when such Restricted Stock Unit becomes free from the restrictions on transferability and forfeitability that apply to such Restricted Stock Unit and, if so payable, shall be paid at the time as provided in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.

Dividend Equivalents. Each Phantom Share subject to this Award is hereby granted in tandem with a corresponding dividend equivalent (“DER”), which DER shall remain outstanding from the Date of Grant until the earlier of the settlement or forfeiture of the Phantom Share to which the DER corresponds. Each vested DER entitles the Participant to receive payments, subject to and in accordance with this Agreement, in an amount equal to any dividends paid by the Company in respect of the share of Common Stock underlying the Phantom Share to which such DER relates. The Company shall establish, with respect to each Phantom Share, a separate DER bookkeeping account for such Phantom Share (a “DER Account”), which shall be credited (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment dates with an amount equal to any dividends paid during the period that such Phantom Share remains outstanding with respect to the share of Common Stock underlying the Phantom Share to which such DER relates. Upon the vesting of a Phantom Share, the DER (and the DER Account) with respect to such vested Phantom Share shall also become vested. Similarly, upon the forfeiture of a Phantom Share, the DER (and the DER Account) with respect to such forfeited Phantom Share shall also be forfeited. DERs shall not entitled the Participant to any payments relating to dividends paid after the earlier to occur of the applicable Phantom Share settlement date or the forfeiture of the Phantom Share underlying such DER. Payments with respect to vested DERs shall be made as soon as practicable, and within 60 days, after the date that such DER vests.

Dividend Equivalents. As long as Participant holds Performance Share Units granted pursuant to this Agreement, 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 Performance Share Units (“Additional Performance Share Units”) equal to the number of Performance Share Units and Additional Performance Share 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 Performance Share Unit resulting from such calculation shall be included in the Additional Performance Share Units. A report showing the number of Additional Performance Share Units so credited shall be sent to Participant periodically, as determined by the Company. The Additional Performance Share Units so credited shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Performance Share Units with respect to which such Additional Performance Share Units were credited, and the Additional Performance Share Units shall be forfeited in the event that the Performance Share Units with respect to which such additional Performance Share Units were credited are forfeited. Further, for avoidance of doubt, Participant will be eligible to receive Additional Performance Share Units with respect to unvested Performance Share Units only if Participant remains in continuous employment with the Company or an Affiliate through the applicable dividend record date as declared by the Board. Additional Performance Share Units are subject to income and payroll tax withholding by the Company.

Dividend Equivalents. Unless set forth in an Award Agreement, no dividend equivalents will be paid on any RSU Award or PSU Award. Dividend equivalents, if added in an Award Agreement, shall only be paid to the extent the RSU Award or PSU Award is earned and paid.

Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, 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.

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.
