Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons under which the Participant shall be entitled to receive payments (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property as determined in the discretion of the Committee) equivalent to the amount of cash dividends paid by the Company to holders of Shares with respect to a number of Shares determined by the Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, such Dividend Equivalents may have such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons in connection with grants of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to such Eligible Persons.

Dividend Equivalents. In the event Director Fees or LTIs are deferred in the form of DSUs, and in the event the Company pays and/or distributes dividends on its Common Stock, Dividend Equivalents on such DSUs shall be credited in cash to the Participant’s Cash Deferred Account. The amount of cash credited shall be equal to the product of # the per-share amount of the dividend paid by the Company in respect of its Common Stock and # the number of DSUs held in the Participant’s Deferred Stock Unit Account on the record date for such dividend being paid on the underlying Common Stock represented by such DSUs. Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to a Participant’s Cash Deferred Stock Account at the time dividends are paid by the Company in respect to its Common Stock. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be deferred until and distributed at the same time as the corresponding DSU upon which the Dividend Equivalent was credited. If the DSU with respect to which the Dividend Equivalent is credited is forfeited, all Dividend Equivalents credited with respect to that forfeited DSU also shall be forfeited.

Dividend Equivalents. Any cash or Common Stock dividends paid on shares of Common Stock underlying an RSU prior to the Settlement Date for such RSU shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on your behalf (any such credited amount, aDividend Equivalent”). Any cash Dividend Equivalents shall not be deemed to be reinvested in shares of Common Stock and will be held uninvested and without interest. Your right to receive any Dividend Equivalents with respect to cash dividends shall vest only if and when the related RSU vests, and an amount equal to such cash dividends shall be paid to you in cash on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related RSU is settled. Your right to receive any Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends of Common Stock shall vest only if and when the related RSU vests, and on the applicable Settlement Date on which the related RSU is settled you will be paid an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock underlying such dividend as of the applicable Settlement Date. Prior to the payment thereof, any Dividend Equivalents will be encompassed within the term “Award” with respect to the relevant RSUs.

Dividend Equivalents. As of any date that cash dividends are paid with respect to the Common Stock from time to time, each Participant’s Stock Unit Account shall be credited with an additional number of Stock Units determined by dividing # the aggregate dollar amount of the dividends that would have been paid on the Stock Units credited to the Participant’s Stock Unit Account as of the record date for such dividend had such Stock Units been actual shares of Common Stock by # the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the dividend payment date.

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.

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.

Dividends; Rights as Stockholder. Cash dividends on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each PSUs granted to the Participant, provided that such cash dividends shall not be deemed to be reinvested in shares of Common Stock and shall be held uninvested and without interest and paid in cash at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the PSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Stock dividends on shares of Common Stock shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each PSUs granted to the Participant, provided that such stock dividends shall be paid in shares of Common Stock at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the PSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by any PSU unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.

The Grantee shall be the record owner of the Restricted Stock and shall be entitled to the right to vote such shares but shall not be entitled to receive all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such shares until such have vested in accordance with Section 3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any stock dividends, stock split or other adjustments contemplated by Section 11 of the Plan in respect of the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same vesting provisions and restrictions on transferability as the shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were issuable or paid.

Employee will have no rights as a stockholder with regard to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units unless and until the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units vest and shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement thereof.

Such dividend equivalents shall be converted into additional Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the dividend payment date, which additional units shall vest and be settled in the form of shares of Common stock, or shall be forfeited, in the same manner and at the same time or times as the underlying Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to which they relate.
