delivered to the Director in electronic or certificated form any shares of Stock that are to be issued under the terms of this Agreement in exchange for Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby, and such shares of Stock shall be transferable by the Director as provided herein (except to the extent that any proposed transfer would, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, constitute a violation of applicable securities law).
		

		
			3.        Deferred Stock Units Do Not Award Any Rights Of A Shareholder.  The Director shall not have the voting rights or any of the other rights, powers or privileges of a holder of Stock with respect to the Deferred Stock Units that are awarded hereby.  Only after a share of Stock is issued in exchange for a Deferred Stock Unit will the Director have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such share of Stock issued in exchange for a Deferred Stock Unit.
		

		
			4.        Dividend Equivalent Payments.    
		

		
			(a)       If during the period the Director holds any Deferred Stock Units granted under this Agreement the Company pays a dividend in cash with respect to the outstanding shares of Stock (a “Cash Dividend”), then the Company will credit to the Director’s bookkeeping ledger account an amount equal to the product of (i) the Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby that have not been forfeited to the Company or exchanged by the Company for shares of Stock and (ii) the amount of the Cash Dividend paid per share of Stock (the “Dividend Equivalents”).  Such Dividend Equivalents will vest and become payable upon the same terms and at the same time as the Deferred Stock Units to which they relate.  The Company shall pay to the Director, in cash, an amount equal to the accrued Dividend Equivalents with respect to the Director’s Deferred Stock Units, which payment shall be paid as soon as practicable after the Forfeiture Restrictions lapse as to the Deferred Stock Units to which they relate.  
		

		
			(b)       If during the period the Director holds any Deferred Stock Units granted under this Agreement the Company pays a dividend in shares of Stock with respect to the outstanding shares of Stock, then the Company will increase the Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby that have not then been forfeited to or exchanged by the Company for shares of Stock by an amount equal to the product of (i) the Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby that have not been forfeited to the Company or exchanged by the Company for shares of Stock and (ii) the number of shares of Stock paid by the Company per share of Stock (collectively, the “Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Units”).  Each Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Unit will be subject to same Forfeiture Restrictions and other restrictions, limitations and conditions applicable to the Deferred Stock Unit for which such Stock Dividend Deferred Stock Unit was awarded and will be exchanged for shares of Stock at the same time and on the same basis as such Deferred Stock Unit.
		

		
			5.        Transfer Restrictions.  The Deferred Stock Units granted hereby may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of  (other than by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution).  Any such attempted sale, assignment, pledge, exchange, hypothecation, transfer, encumbrance or disposition in violation of this Agreement shall be void and the Company shall not be bound thereby.  Further, any shares of Stock issued to the Director in exchange for Deferred Stock Units awarded hereby may not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable securities laws.
