Participant any right to vote on matters that are submitted to a vote of holders of Shares. The RSUs granted hereby constitute a "Converted Award"

hereunder the Company shall pay any dividend other than a regular cash dividend or make any other distribution on the Shares, the Participant shall be
credited
