Any such dividend equivalent shall be deemed reinvested in additional full and fractional Restricted Stock Units immediately upon the related dividend’s payment date, based on the then-current Fair Market Value, and shall be subject to the same vesting, settlement and other conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit on which such dividend equivalent is paid. Any fractional shares shall be paid in cash upon the vesting of such Restricted Share Units.
