The Participant shall be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the Covered Shares that become payable during the Restricted Period (defined below); provided, however, that no dividends shall be payable to or for the benefit of the Participant for Covered Shares with respect to record dates occurring prior to the Grant Date, or with respect to record dates occurring on or after the date, if any, on which the Participant has forfeited those Covered Shares. Any such dividends paid with respect to the Covered Shares during the Restricted Period shall be paid at the same time as they are paid to other shareholders of common shares of the Company. The Participant shall be entitled to vote the Covered Shares during the Restricted Period to the same extent as would have been applicable to the Participant if the Participant was then vested in the shares; provided, however, that the Participant shall not be entitled to vote the shares with respect to record dates for such voting rights arising prior to the Grant Date, or with respect to record dates occurring on or after the date, if any, on which the Participant has forfeited those Covered Shares. Any additional common shares of the Company issued with respect to the Covered Shares as a result of any stock dividend, stock split or reorganization, shall be subject to the restrictions and other provisions of paragraphs 5, 6 and 7.

4.    Issuance of Certificate. Each certificate issued in respect of the Covered Shares granted under this Agreement shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall be deposited in a bank designated by the Committee or retained by the Company. The certification of Covered Shares is conditioned upon the Participant endorsing in blank a stock power for the Covered Shares. During the Restricted Period, all certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock will be imprinted with the following legend: “The securities evidenced by this certificate are subject to the transfer restrictions, forfeiture restrictions and other provisions of the Restricted Stock Agreement dated __________ between Hospira and _________.” Upon lapse of the Restriction Period, the Participant shall be entitled to have the legend removed from the certificate representing the Covered Shares.
