Section 5.01. Conditions to Grant. As a condition to the grant of Awards, Dillard’s shall require the Participant to execute a Stock Award Agreement prior to issuing the Award.

Section 5.02. Amount of Awards. The amount of Awards to be issued under the Plan may vary from year to year and by Participant to Participant in the Committee’s sole discretion. In no event, however, may Awards be issued to any Participant if such issuance would (i) cause the total number of Restricted Shares awarded under the Plan to a single Participant to exceed 5,000 Shares in any fiscal year of Dillard’s without being approved by the Board or (ii) cause the total number of Shares issued to all Participants to equal or exceed the maximum amount allowed in Section 4.01. The Committee shall have the right to grant new Awards in exchange for outstanding Awards.

Section 5.03. Restricted Shares.

a)Awards of Restricted Shares shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Award Agreement.

c)The Committee shall establish any vesting schedule applicable to Restricted Shares and shall specify the periods of restriction, vesting and other requirements. Until the end of the period(s) of time specified in the vesting schedule, the Restricted Shares subject to such Award shall remain subject to forfeiture.

d)Notwithstanding any term, condition, restriction and/or limitation with respect to an Award granted under the Plan but subject to the restrictions on transfer and forfeiture in this Plan, a Participant who has been granted an Award shall be entitled to all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Shares underlying the Award from the date of grant, including voting rights and the rights to receive dividends and other distributions. All Shares or other securities paid on an Award shall be held by the Company and shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Award to which they relate.

Section 5.04. Vesting. Unless otherwise provided in the Stock Award Agreement, all unvested Awards shall become immediately vested upon the Participant’s termination of service as a member of the Board prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period as a result of the Participant’s Retirement, death or Disability. Upon a Participant’s termination of service as a member of the Board for any other reason prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, all unvested Awards shall be forfeited to Dillard’s and be available for reissuance under the Plan. The Committee may accelerate the vesting for any or all of the unvested Awards for any Participant if the Committee determines that the circumstances in a particular case so warrant, and upon such a determination, all restrictions applicable to the Restricted Shares shall lapse.

Section 5.05. Issuance of Awards; Awards Held In Escrow. Unless and until the Awards have vested as set forth in the Plan and the related Stock Award Agreements, such Awards shall be issued in the name of the Participant and held by the Secretary of Dillard’s (or its designee) as escrow agent, and shall not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, and shall not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated other than a transfer of vested Restricted Shares upon death by will, by descent and distribution or by designation of a beneficiary in accordance with Section 7.02. Dillard’s may determine to issue the Awards in book entry form and/or may instruct the transfer agent for its common stock to place a legend on certificates representing the Restricted Shares or Performance-Based Restricted Shares or otherwise note its records as to the restrictions on the transfer as set forth in the Plan.

Section 5.06. Delivery of Certificates. As soon as practicable after complete vesting of the Awards granted to the Participant, the Secretary of Dillard’s (or its designee), as escrow agent, shall cause to be delivered to the Participant or a broker designated by Dillard’s for the purpose of receiving such Shares, a certificate or certificates representing those Shares free of all restrictions created under this Plan and the related Stock Award Agreements. Prior to such delivery, Dillard’s may require the Participant to establish a brokerage account with the broker designated by Dillard’s to receive the Shares and execute and deliver to Dillard’s a written statement, in form satisfactory to Dillard’s, in which the Participant represents that he or she is acquiring Shares for the Participant’s own account, for investment only and not for resale or distribution of any such Shares.

Section 6.01. Authority of the Committee.
