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.

Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. In the sole and complete discretion of the Committee, an Award (other than an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right) may provide the Participant with dividends or Dividend Equivalents, payable in cash, Shares, other securities or other property on a current or deferred basis. All dividends or Dividend Equivalents that are not paid currently may, at the Committee’s discretion, accrue interest, be reinvested into additional Shares, or, in the case of dividends or Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with Performance Awards, be credited as additional Performance Awards, and such dividends and Dividend Equivalents shall be paid to the Participant if and when, and to the extent that, payment is made pursuant to such Award.

Crediting of Dividend Equivalents. On each dividend payment date for the Corporation, the Corporation will credit the memorandum account of each Participant who holds Restricted Stock Units as of the declared record date with additional Restricted Stock Units and fractions thereof equivalent to the dividend paid on the Corporation’s Common Stock based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the dividend payment date. Each credited dividend equivalent will be equal to the amount of the regular quarterly dividend paid in accordance with the Corporation’s normal dividend payment practice as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Participant’s memorandum account will be credited with additional Restricted Stock Units, including fractions thereof, pursuant to this paragraph until all Restricted Stock Units that were credited to the Participant are distributed.

Payment of Dividend Equivalents. From and after the Date of Grant and until the time when the Shares become nonforfeitable, on the date that Gentex pays a cash dividend (if any) to holders of shares of Common Stock generally, you will be entitled to payments of such dividends on the Shares.

From and after the Date of Grant and until the DSUs are paid to Grantee in accordance with Section 5 hereof, on the date that the Company pays a cash dividend (if any) or other cash distribution to holders of shares of Common Stock generally, Grantee shall be entitled to a number of additional DSUs determined by dividing # the product of # the dollar amount of such cash dividend or other cash distribution paid per share of Common Stock on such date and # the total number of DSUs (including dividend equivalents credited thereon) previously credited to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement as of such date, to the extent such DSUs have not been paid to Grantee in accordance with Section 5 hereof, by # the Market Value per Share on such date. Such dividend equivalents (if any) shall be subject to the same applicable terms and conditions (including dividend equivalents and payment) as apply to the DSUs as to which the dividend equivalents were credited.

The Restricted Stock shall have the rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, as applicable, during the Restriction Period. Such dividends or dividend equivalents will accrue during the Restriction Period, but not be paid until restrictions lapse. Subject to the aforementioned and issuance of dividends or dividend equivalents on the Corporation’s common stock, dividends will be paid in cash.
