Related to Rights as Stockholder Dividend Equivalent
Rights as Shareholder; Dividend Equivalents 5.1 The Grantee shall not have any rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units unless and until the Restricted Stock Units vest and are settled by the issuance of such shares of Common Stock.
Stockholder Rights and Dividend Equivalents (a) The holder of this Award shall not have any stockholder rights, including voting or dividend rights, with respect to the Shares subject to the Award until Participant becomes the record holder of those Shares following their actual issuance upon the Corporation’s collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes.
Rights as Shareholder; Dividends 5.1 The Grantee shall be the record owner of the Restricted Stock until the shares of Common Stock are sold or otherwise disposed of, and shall be entitled to all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company including, without limitation, the right to vote such shares and receive all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividends or other distributions shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability as the shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.
Dividend Equivalent Units On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to the Company Reacquisition Right (as defined below) as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
Payment of Dividend Equivalents With respect to each of the RSUs covered by this Agreement, Grantee shall be credited on the records of the Company with dividend equivalents in an amount equal to the amount per Common Share of any cash dividends declared by the Board on the outstanding Common Shares during the period beginning on the Date of Grant and ending either on the date on which Grantee receives payment for the RSUs pursuant to Section 6 hereof or at the time when the RSUs are forfeited in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement. These dividend equivalents will accumulate without interest and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will be paid at the same time, to the same extent and in the same manner, in cash or Common Shares (as determined by the Committee) as the RSUs for which the dividend equivalents were credited.
Dividend Equivalent Rights Distributions As of any date that the Corporation pays an ordinary cash dividend on its Common Stock, the Corporation shall credit the Participant with an additional number of Stock Units equal to (i) the per share cash dividend paid by the Corporation on its Common Stock on such date, multiplied by (ii) the total number of Stock Units (including any dividend equivalents previously credited hereunder) (with such total number adjusted pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Plan) subject to the Award as of the related dividend payment record date, divided by (iii) the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of payment of such dividend. Any Stock Units credited pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(b) shall be subject to the same vesting, payment and other terms, conditions and restrictions as the original Stock Units to which they relate. No crediting of Stock Units shall be made pursuant to this Section 5(b) with respect to any Stock Units which, as of such record date, have either been paid pursuant to Section 7 or terminated pursuant to Section 8.
Dividends; Rights as Stockholder Cash dividends on shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU 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 RSUs 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 RSU 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 RSUs 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 RSU unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.
Dividend Equivalents Subject to this Paragraph 6, with respect to dividends for which a record date occurs during the Restriction Period, Participant shall be credited with a Dividend Equivalent with respect to each outstanding Restricted Stock Unit, and with respect to any related Dividend Equivalent Unit (defined below) resulting from prior reinvestments of Dividend Equivalents as provided in this Paragraph. All Dividend Equivalents so credited will be deemed to be reinvested in Restricted Stock Units on the date that the applicable dividend or distribution is made to the Company’s shareholders, based on the Target Award Units and any Dividend Equivalent Units resulting from prior reinvestments of Dividend Equivalents, in the number of Units determined by dividing the aggregate value of the Dividend Equivalents by the Fair Market Value of the Stock on such date (rounded to the nearest thousandth of a whole Unit or as otherwise reasonably determined by the Company); provided, however, that if Dividend Equivalents cannot be reinvested in Units due to the operation of Section 3(a) of the Plan, such Dividend Equivalents will be credited to Participant as a cash value based on the Target Award Units and any Dividend Equivalent Units resulting from prior reinvestments of Dividend Equivalents, which cash value shall be held by the Company (without interest) subject to this Agreement. Any Units resulting from the deemed reinvestment of dividends in accordance with this Paragraph 6 are referred to herein as “Dividend Equivalent Units.” Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same terms and conditions, and shall vest or be forfeited (as applicable) at the same time, upon the same conditions, and in the same proportion, as the Target Award Units set forth in this Award; provided, however, that if the Award vests after the record date for, but before the payment date of, a dividend, then the Dividend Equivalents related to such dividend and to Units vesting on the vesting date will be paid in cash or in Stock, in the sole discretion of the Company, as soon as practicable following the payment date for such dividend.
Company Restricted Stock Units At the Effective Time of the First Merger, each Company Restricted Stock Unit then outstanding shall be assumed by Parent (each, an “Assumed RSU”). Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Company Stock Plan and any applicable award or other agreement, each Assumed RSU shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (or an amount in respect thereof for cash settled Company Restricted Stock Unit) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Restricted Stock Unit multiplied by the Stock Award Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock). Each Company Restricted Stock Unit shall have the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger other than with respect to those Company Restricted Stock Units listed (i) in Section 5.9(c)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule that were subject to performance based vesting conditions prior to the date of this Agreement and that shall be deemed issued and vested in their entirety at the Effective Time of the First Merger and released from any forfeiture rights pertaining to such shares in favor of Company, Parent or Surviving Entity, and (ii) in Section 5.9(c)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which shall be deemed issued in their entirety at the Effective Time of the First Merger, which shall be converted into the right to receive Parent Common Stock according to the same formula applied to the Assumed RSUs above, and which shall be subject to quarterly vesting over a two-year period following the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the 2006 Plan. Except as set forth in this Section 5.9(c). Company shall not take or permit any action that would accelerate vesting of any Company Restricted Stock Unit, except to the extent required by the terms of any such Company Restricted Stock Unit as in effect on the date hereof. Copies of the relevant agreements governing such Company Restricted Stock Unit and the vesting thereof have been provided to Parent. Except as set forth in this Section 5.9(c), all outstanding rights that Company may hold immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger to the forfeiture of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Restricted Stock Unit shall be assigned to Parent in the First Merger and shall thereafter be held by Parent upon the same terms and conditions in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger, except that the shares forfeitable pursuant to such rights shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the Stock Award Exchange Ratio.
Dividend Equivalent Rights In the event that the Company declares and pays a dividend in respect of its outstanding shares of Stock and, on the record date for such dividend, you hold Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement that have not been settled, the Company shall create a bookkeeping account that will track, (a) to the extent the dividend paid to stockholders generally was a cash dividend, the cash value you would have been entitled to receive as if you had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Stock related to the Restricted Stock Units that have not been settled as of the record date, or (b) to the extent the dividend paid to stockholders generally was paid in the form of property, the property you would have been entitled to receive as if you had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Stock related to the Restricted Stock Units that have not been settled as of the record date. All DER amounts credited to your bookkeeping account pursuant to this Section 3, if any, shall be deemed converted into shares of Stock on the date that the Restricted Stock Units vest (based on the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Management Stockholder’s Agreement) of Stock on such date and rounded down to the nearest whole share of Stock) and paid to you in the form of additional shares of Stock on the date that the underlying Restricted Stock Units associated with such DER amounts are settled pursuant to Section 5 below. In the event that the Restricted Stock Units are forfeited to the Company without settlement to you, you will also forfeit any associated DER amounts. No interest will be payable with respect to DER amounts credited to your bookkeeping account, if any, that represent cash dividends. Property, if any, deemed credited to DER bookkeeping accounts representing dividends paid in property will be deemed invested in such property until the DER amounts are deemed converted to shares of Stock pursuant to this Section 3. The bookkeeping accounts, if any, created to track DER amounts are phantom accounts and the Company is under no obligation to set aside cash or property with respect to any DER amounts. Valuations made pursuant to this Section 3 (including any valuation of property deemed credited to a bookkeeping account) will be made by the Committee, or its designee, in its sole discretion and such valuation will be final and binding.
