Dividend Equivalents. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, award dividend equivalents in connection with the grant of Restricted Stock Units that may be settled in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof.

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

Dividend Equivalents. If on any date prior to issuance of the shares of Stock subject to the Performance RSUs, the Company shall pay any dividend on the Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Stock), the number of Performance RSUs that are ultimately earned by the Grantee pursuant to Section 3 shall as of the date such Performance RSUs are earned, be increased by an amount equal to: # the product of the number of Performance RSUs earned by the Grantee pursuant to Section 3 (with such RSUs being treated, for purposes of this provision, as if they had been credited to the Grantee’s Account as of the record date for such dividend), multiplied by the per share amount of any dividend (or, in the case of any dividend payable in property other than cash, the per share value of such dividend, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company), divided by # the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the payment date of such dividend. In the case of any dividend declared on Stock which is payable in shares of Stock, the number of Performance RSUs credited to the Grantee shall be increased by a number equal to the product of # the aggregate number of Performance RSUs that are earned by the Grantee pursuant to Section 3 (with such RSUs being treated, for purposes of this provision, as if they had been credited to the Grantee’s Account through the related dividend record date), multiplied by # the number of shares of Stock (including any fraction thereof) payable as a dividend on a share of Stock. The Grantee shall have no right to the payment of any dividends either declared or accrued on shares of Stock subject to the Performance RSUs for any period prior to the date of issuance of the Stock.

Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the date of grant, and except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 7(h) hereof, any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Deferred Award shall be either # paid with respect to such Deferred Award at the dividend payment date in cash or in Shares of unrestricted stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, or # deferred with respect to such Deferred Award and the amount or value thereof automatically deemed reinvested in additional Deferred Award, other Awards or other investment vehicles, as the Committee shall determine or permit the Participant to elect. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether any Dividend Equivalents shall be paid at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant. If the Participant may elect to defer the Dividend Equivalents, such election shall be made within 30 days after the grant date of the Deferred Award, but in no event later than 12 months before the first date on which any portion of such Deferred Award vests (or at such other times prescribed by the Committee as shall not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code).

Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to any Eligible Person entitling the Eligible Person to receive cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property equal in value to the dividends paid with respect to a specified number of Shares, or other periodic payments. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded on a free-standing basis or in connection with another Award. Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 7(h) hereof, the Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be paid or distributed when accrued or at some later date, or whether such Dividend Equivalents shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares, Awards, or other investment vehicles, and subject to such restrictions on transferability and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. Any such determination by the Committee shall be made at the grant date of the applicable Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with an Award that vests based on the achievement of performance goals shall 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.

The RSUs are granted with dividend equivalent rights. If the Company declares a cash dividend on the Shares, an amount equivalent to such dividend will be credited to an unfunded bookkeeping account with respect to each outstanding and unvested RSU (the “Dividend Equivalent Amount”) on the record date of such dividend.

Dividend Equivalents. Each RSU granted hereunder is hereby granted in tandem with a corresponding Dividend Equivalent, which Dividend Equivalent shall remain outstanding from the Grant Date until the earlier of the payment or forfeiture of the RSU to which it corresponds (such earlier date, the “Dividend Equivalent Forfeiture Date”). Pursuant to each outstanding Dividend Equivalent, the Participant shall be entitled to receive payments equal to dividends paid, if any, on the Shares underlying the RSU to which such Dividend Equivalent relates during the period beginning on the Grant Date set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and ending on the applicable Dividend Equivalent Forfeiture Date. Dividend Equivalents shall not entitle the Participant to any payments relating to dividends for which the record date occurs after the settlement of the RSU underlying such Dividend Equivalent or, if applicable, the forfeiture of such RSU. Dividend Equivalents and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof shall be treated separately from the RSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A of the Code.

Dividend Equivalents. If the Company pays cash dividends on its Stock on or after the date of this Agreement, then the Company shall credit to the Participant’s account, as of any dividend payment date, a number of additional Units. The number of additional Units so credited will be equal to the total number of Units previously credited to the Participant’s account under this Award (including any Units previously credited pursuant to this Section 4) multiplied by the per share dollar amount of the cash dividend paid on that date, divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on that date. Any additional Units so credited shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Units to which such additional Units relate, and will be forfeited if the Units with respect to which such additional Units were credited are forfeited.

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

Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, dividend equivalents on the specified number of shares of Stock covered by an Award of RSUs shall be either # paid with respect to such RSUs at the dividend payment date in cash or in shares of unrestricted Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, or # deferred with respect to such RSUs, either as a cash deferral or with the amount or value thereof automatically deemed reinvested in additional RSUs, other Awards or other investment vehicles having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, as the Committee shall determine or permit a Participant to elect.
