Dividend Equivalents. The Administrator may provide for the payment of amounts, on such terms and subject to conditions established by the Administrator, in lieu of cash dividends or other cash distributions with respect to Stock subject to an Award, whether or not the holder of such Award is otherwise entitled to share in the actual dividend or distribution in respect of such Award. 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.

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. No Dividend Equivalents shall be paid with respect to any Shares during the Performance Period.]

Dividend Equivalents. There will be no dividend equivalents on the RSUs granted under Section 3.

Dividend Equivalents. In connection with the Performance Share Unit Award, any cash dividends paid on the shares of Common Stock underlying the Performance Share Units shall be converted to additional Performance Share Units on the dividend payment date, based on the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such date (“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents shall accrue with respect to Performance Share Units and shall be payable subject to the same Performance Goals, vesting terms and other conditions as the Performance Share Units to which they relate. Dividend Equivalents shall be credited on the Performance Share Units when dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock from the Date of Grant until the settlement date for the vested Performance Share Units. If and to the extent that the underlying Performance Share Units are forfeited, all related Dividend Equivalents shall also be forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends and distributions other than regular cash dividends, if any, may result in an adjustment pursuant to Section 8, rather than under this Section 6.

Dividend Equivalents. During the period from the Award Date to the issue of shares of Common Stock according to Section 1(c), the Participant will be credited with deemed dividends (a “Deemed Dividend”) in an amount equal to each cash dividend payable after the Award Date, just as though the Participant, on the record date for payment of the dividend, had been the holder of record of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of RSUs represented by this Award Certificate. The Deemed Dividends will be converted to additional RSUs, rounded down to the nearest whole number, by dividing the Deemed Dividends by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date the cash dividend to which it relates is paid. The Company will establish a bookkeeping record to account for the Deemed Dividends and additional RSUs to be credited to the Participant. The additional RSUs represented by Deemed Dividends are subject to the same vesting requirements as the Award, including without limitation the requirement that the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved.

No Dividend Equivalents. Dividend equivalents may not be credited in respect of Common Shares covered by a Restricted Share Unit Award.

Credit of Dividend Equivalents. As of each dividend payment date with respect to Shares, each Participant shall have credited to his or her Stock Unit Account an additional number of Stock Units equal to: the per-share cash dividend payable with respect to a Share on such dividend payment date multiplied by the number of Stock Units held in the Stock Unit Account as of the close of business on the record date for such dividend divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on such dividend payment date. If dividends are paid on Shares in a form other than cash, then such dividends shall be notionally converted to cash, if their value is readily determinable, and credited in a manner consistent with the foregoing and, if their value is not readily determinable, shall be credited "in kind" to the Participant's Stock Unit Account.

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.
