Payment of Restricted Stock Units. Each Restricted Stock Unit shall have a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share. Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in cash, Shares, other securities or other property, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, upon the lapse of the restrictions applicable thereto, or otherwise in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, Participants shall not be credited with Dividend Equivalents on any Restricted Stock Units. If Dividend Equivalents are credited, the amount of any such Dividend Equivalents shall equal the amount that would have been payable to the Participant as a shareholder in respect of a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units then credited to him. Any such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Participant’s account as of the date on which such dividend would have been payable and shall be converted into additional Restricted Stock Units based upon the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such crediting. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the Award Agreement, all Restricted Stock Units and all rights of the grantee to such Restricted Stock Units shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the grantee remains in continuous employment of one or more Employers for the entire Restricted Period in relation to which such Restricted Stock Units were granted and unless any other restrictive conditions relating to the Restricted Stock Unit Award are met. Any Dividend Equivalents granted with respect to Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the same restrictions that apply to the underlying Shares.
9.3Voting Rights, Dividend Equivalent Rights and Distributions. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock represented by Restricted Stock Units until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). However, the Committee, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Restricted Stock Units that the Participant shall be entitled to accrue Dividend Equivalents with respect to the payment of cash dividends on Stock during the period beginning on the date such Award is granted and ending, with respect to the particular shares subject to the Award, on the earlier of the date the Award is settled or the date on which it is terminated. Such Dividend Equivalents, if any, may, as determined by the Committee, accrue in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units or as an unfunded cash balance in a notional account. Accrued Dividend Equivalents, if any, will only be paid to the extent that the Restricted Stock Units to which such accrued Dividend Equivalents relate become vested or are otherwise to be settled.
The Committee, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Restricted Stock Unit Award that the Participant shall be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalent Rights during the period beginning on the date a Restricted Stock Unit Award is granted and ending, with respect to each share of Stock underlying the Award, on the earlier of the date the Award vests or the date on which it is terminated. For a Restricted Stock Unit Award based upon the satisfaction of Performance Goals, the Dividend Equivalent Rights paid will be based on the number of shares earned by the Participant. However, in the event of a dividend or distribution paid in shares of Stock or other property or any other adjustment made upon a change in the capital structure of the Corporation as described in Section 3.2, any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than normal cash dividend equivalents) to which the Participant may be entitled by reason of the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be immediately subject to the terms and conditions and shall be settled in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Unit Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalent Rights were paid or adjustments were made.
Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the date of grant, any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: # Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be paid on the date or dates the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award to which such Dividend Equivalents relates, is satisfied under Section 6(e)(i), with such Dividend Equivalents to be accumulated, without interest, by the Company (the Accumulated Dividend Equivalents), # all Accumulated Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be paid in cash, and # any Accumulated Dividend Equivalents with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be forfeited and all rights of the Participant to such Accumulated Dividend Equivalents shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award to which such Accumulated Dividend Equivalents relate become vested pursuant to the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit Award and this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Award Agreement may specify whether any Dividend Equivalents shall be # paid at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant, or # converted to additional Restricted Stock Units that shall be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock Unit Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited. If the Participant may elect to defer the Dividend Equivalents, such election shall be made within 30 days after the grant date of the Restricted Stock Unit Award, but in no event later than 12 months before the first date on which any portion of such Restricted Stock Unit Award vests (or at such other times prescribed by the Committee as shall not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(e)(iii), Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with a Restricted Stock Unit 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 Restricted Stock Unit Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited.
Treatment of Cash Dividends. At the time of an Award of Restricted Stock Units, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine to provide the Grantee with the right to receive cash Dividend Equivalents with respect to the Restricted Stock Units subject to the Award, or a specified portion thereof. A “Dividend Equivalent” is an amount equal to the cash dividend payable per Share, if any, multiplied by the number of Shares then underlying the Award with respect to any cash dividends declared or paid by the Company while the Award is outstanding. Any such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Grantee at the time the Company pays any cash dividend on its Shares. Until such time as the Dividend Equivalents vest or are forfeited, interest may be credited on the amount of such Dividend Equivalents held by the Company for the account of the Grantee from time to time at such rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Grantee shall vest at the same time as the underlying Restricted Stock Units, and payment of credited Dividend Equivalents, together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be made at the time when the underlying Restricted Stock Units convert to Shares. In the event any Restricted Stock Units are forfeited under Section 9(c) hereof, any Dividend Equivalents credited to Grantee with respect to such forfeited Restricted Stock Units and any interest accrued thereon shall be forfeited to the Company, and the Grantee shall have no rights and the Company shall have no liability as to such Dividend Equivalents or interest.
The Participant shall not have the right to receive any dividends, other distributions or Dividend Equivalents, as applicable, in respect of the shares of Stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units prior to the delivery of such shares of Stock. At the discretion of the Committee determined at the time of the Award, subject to the provisions of Section 3(a) of the Plan, the Participant may be credited with Dividend Equivalents with respect to each dividend or other distribution for which a record date occurs during the Restriction Period and for the payment of such Dividend Equivalents in cash or the reinvestment of such Dividend Equivalents in additional Units. The Committee may provide that any dividends, other distributions or Dividend Equivalents, whether payable in cash or shares of Stock, shall not be paid or distributed immediately, but shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions regarding vesting, restrictions and forfeiture that apply to the Restricted Stock Units to which such dividends, other distributions or Dividend Equivalents relate.
