Deferred Compensation Awards. A participant generally will recognize no income upon the receipt of deferred stock units. Upon the settlement of deferred stock units, the participant normally will recognize ordinary income in the year of settlement in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares received. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of the shares received, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value of the shares on the date they are transferred to the participant, will be taxed as capital gain or loss. The Company generally should be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the participant, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
