Dividend Equivalents. Any cash or Common Stock dividends paid on shares of Common Stock underlying a Unit prior to the Settlement Date for such Unit 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. An amount equal to any Dividend Equivalents with respect to cash dividends shall be paid to you in cash on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related Unit is settled. On the applicable Settlement Date on which the related Unit is settled you will be paid an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock underlying Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends of Common Stock 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 Units.

Dividend Equivalents. The Award agreement for Restricted Stock Units may provide Participants with the right to receive an amount equal to any dividends or other distributions declared and paid on an equal number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the Participants, may be settled in cash and/or shares of Common Stock and may be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which paid, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Award agreement.

Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons under which the Participant shall be entitled to receive payments (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property as determined in the discretion of the Committee) equivalent to the amount of cash dividends paid by the Company to holders of Shares with respect to a number of Shares determined by the Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, such Dividend Equivalents may have such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons in connection with grants of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to such Eligible Persons.

Dividend Equivalents. Until such time as the following restrictions lapse, or the PSUs are cancelled, whichever occurs first, the Company will establish an amount to be paid to the Grantee ("Dividend Equivalent") equal to the number of PSUs subject to restriction times the per share quarterly dividend payments made to shareholders of the Company's Common Stock. The Company shall accumulate Dividend Equivalents and will pay the Grantee a cash amount equal to the Dividend Equivalents accumulated and unpaid as of the date that restrictions lapse (without interest) reasonably promptly after such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any accumulated and unpaid Dividend Equivalents attributable to PSUs that are cancelled will not be paid and are immediately forfeited upon cancellation of the PSUs.

Dividend Equivalents. The Director shall have the right to receive additional RSUs with a value equal to the regular cash dividend paid on one Share for each RSU held pursuant to this Agreement prior to the conversion of RSUs and issuance of Shares pursuant to Section 7. The number of additional RSUs to be received as dividend equivalents for each RSU held shall be determined by dividing the cash dividend per share by the Fair Market Value of one Share on the dividend payment date; provided, however, that for purposes of avoiding the issuance of fractional RSUs, on each dividend payment date the additional RSUs issued as dividend equivalents shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. All such additional RSUs received as dividend equivalents shall be fully vested upon issuance, and shall be converted into Shares on the basis and at the time set forth in Section 7 hereof.

No Dividend Equivalents. No dividend equivalents shall be paid to the Employee with regard to the Stock Units.

The Participant may receive any dividend equivalents payable with respect to the Matching RSUs from the Grant Date until the Matching RSUs vest to the extent so provided in the Matching RSU award agreement. If any Matching RSUs are forfeited hereunder, the dividend equivalents credited with respect to such Matching RSUs shall also be forfeited.

Deferral; Dividend Equivalents. The Committee shall be authorized to establish procedures pursuant to which the payment of any Award may be deferred. Such procedures may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents or other amounts in respect of deferred payments denominated in Shares. Any deferral shall only be allowed as is provided in a separate deferred compensation plan adopted by the Company. This Plan shall not constitute an “employee benefit plan” for purposes of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Salary Continuation. Employee shall continue to receive Employee's then current Base Salary for a period of twelve (12) months following Employee's termination of employment by the Company for reasons other than Cause. All such severance payments shall be paid in accordance with the Company's normal payroll practices. Such continuation of Employee's Base Salary shall be in lieu of any and all other benefits which Employee is entitled to receive on the date of Employee's termination of employment pursuant to any Company severance and benefit plans and practices or pursuant to other agreements with the Company. Employee shall not be entitled to pro-rated payment of an annual bonus.
