Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be granted by the Administrator based on dividends declared on the Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates with respect to dividends with record dates that occur during the period between the date an Award is granted to a Holder and the date such Award vests, is exercised, is distributed or expires, as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such restrictions and limitations as may be determined by the Administrator.

Each Restricted Stock Unit shall accrue Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends that would otherwise be paid on the Share underlying such Restricted Stock Unit during the period from the Date of Grant to the date such Share is delivered in accordance with Section 6. Any such Dividend Equivalent shall be deemed reinvested in additional Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units immediately upon the related dividend’s payment date, based on the then-current Fair Market Value (rounded down to the nearest whole number), and shall be subject to the Period of Restriction applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit on which such Dividend Equivalent is paid. Any such conversion of Dividend Equivalents shall be conclusively determined by the Committee. The Shares underlying Restricted Stock Units into which Dividend Equivalents are so converted shall be delivered in accordance with Section 6.

Dividend Equivalents. The Award Agreement in respect of an Other Stock-Based Award, or a separate agreement if required by Section 409A of the Code, may provide that the Participant shall be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred or contingent basis, dividends or dividend equivalents with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Award or other distributions from MPT OP or other Subsidiary, as applicable, prior to vesting (whether based on a period of time or based on attainment of specified performance conditions), as determined at the time of grant by the Committee in its sole discretion, and the Committee may provide that such amounts (if any) shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock or otherwise reinvested.

Dividend Equivalents. All Stock Equivalents credited to a Director’s account shall be further credited with an amount equivalent to each dividend declared on Common Shares. The amount of such dividend equivalents shall be divided by the price per share of the Common Shares on the ex-dividend date for such dividend (or other pricing date determined by the Committee for such dividend; and, if any such date is not a Trading Day, then on the first Trading Day immediately preceding such date) to determine the number of additional Stock Equivalents or fractions thereof (calculated to the third decimal place with conventional rounding or as otherwise approved by the Committee) to be credited to a Director’s account.

Each Director Stock Award Subaccount shall be credited, as applicable, with Dividend Equivalents. Any Dividend Equivalents shall be credited in the form of additional Director Deferred Shares and shall automatically and irrevocably be deemed to be part of the Participant’s Director Stock Award Subaccount until distributed to the Participant. The number of Directed Deferred Shares credited to the Participant’s Director Stock Award Subaccount for a particular Dividend Equivalent shall, in the case of a stock dividend, be equal to # the number of Director Deferred Shares credited to the Participant’s Director Stock Award Subaccount as of the payment date for such dividend in respect of each share of common stock of the Company, multiplied by # the number of additional or fractional shares of common stock of the Company actually paid as a dividend in respect of each share of common stock or, in the case of a cash dividend, shall be equal to # the number of Director Deferred Shares credited to the Participant’s Director Stock Award Subaccount, multiplied by # the fair market value of the dividend in respect of each share of common stock, divided by # the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Incentive Plan) of the common stock on the payment date for such dividend.

Dividend Equivalents. If the Company declares and pays an ordinary cash dividend in respect of its outstanding shares of Stock and, on the record date for such dividend, Employee holds either # unvested Performance Units under this Award or # vested Performance Units under this Award which have not been settled in accordance with this Agreement, then a dividend equivalent equal to the per share amount of such dividend shall be credited on each of such Performance Units underlying this Award and outstanding on the record date for such dividend. Such dividend equivalents credited on Performance Units shall be paid in cash without interest on the settlement date of such Performance Units in accordance with the timing and other provisions described in Sections 5 and 6 hereof. Any such dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Performance Units on which the dividend equivalents were credited. Dividends and distributions payable on Stock other than in an ordinary cash dividend will be addressed in accordance with Section 10 hereof.

Deferral; Dividend Equivalents. The Committee shall be authorized to establish procedures pursuant to which the payment of any Award may be deferred. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and any Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award (including any deferred Award) other than an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may, if so determined by the Committee, be entitled to receive cash, stock or other property dividends, or cash payments in amounts equivalent to cash, stock or other property dividends on Shares (“Dividend Equivalents”) with respect to the number of Shares covered by the Award, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Committee may provide that such amounts and Dividend Equivalents (if any) shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or otherwise reinvested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dividend Equivalents shall in all events be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited and shall not be paid until and unless the underlying Award vests.

Subject to [Section 4.3], the Committee may not grant Dividend Equivalents in connection with any Option.

No Dividend Equivalents. No Option shall provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents.
