The record date of 12/1 means that they take a snapshot of all shares outstanding as of that date, that is the amount of shares that qualify for the divy. If you sell after that date the divy goes with the shares you sold, if you buy before the close on 12/15 you get the shares that someone else sold with the divy attached.
