General. As a condition to the issuance or distribution of Shares pursuant to the Plan, the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, the person who succeeds to the Participant’s rights) shall make such arrangements as the Company may require for the satisfaction of any applicable federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the Award and the issuance of Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares until such obligations are satisfied. If the Committee allows the withholding or surrender of Shares to satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligations, the Committee shall not allow Shares to be withheld in an amount that exceeds the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes.

As a condition of the grant, vesting, exercise and/or settlement of an Award granted under the Plan, the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, the person exercising or holding the Award) shall make such arrangements as the Administrator may require for the satisfaction of any applicable federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the Award or the issuance of Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied. If the Administrator allows the withholding or surrender of Shares to satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligations under this Section 11, the Administrator shall be allowed to withhold Shares in an amount equal to the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, and local tax purposes, including payroll taxes, or in a greater amount if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences.

Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, a Participant or his or her successor shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise in connection with the Plan. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares or make any cash payment under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.

Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or non-U.S. law, a Participant or such Participant’s successor shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise in connection with the Plan. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares or make any cash payment under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.

Withholding. The Company’s obligation to issue or deliver Shares or pay any amount pursuant to the terms of any Award granted hereunder shall be subject to satisfaction of applicable federal, state, local, and foreign tax withholding requirements. To the extent provided in the applicable Agreement and in accordance with rules prescribed by the Committee, a Participant may satisfy any such withholding tax obligation by one or any combination of the following means: # tendering a cash payment, # authorizing the Company to withhold Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant, or # delivering to the Company already-owned and unencumbered Shares.

Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Participant or other Person until the Participant or other Person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any non‑U.S., U.S.‑federal, U.S.‑state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares. Upon exercise or vesting of an Award, the Company shall withhold or collect from the Participant an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations, including, but not limited to, by surrender of a whole number of Shares covered by the Award sufficient to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligations incident to the exercise or vesting of the Award.

Withholding of Taxes. Whenever Shares are to be issued under the Plan, the Company shall require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such Shares.

Tax Withholding. Each Participant is responsible for any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes with respect to any amount payable under this Plan. To the extent the Company is required to withhold any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes in connection with the delivery of Shares or any other payment or vesting event under this Plan, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, # retain a number of Shares otherwise deliverable hereunder with a value equal to the required withholding (based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) of the Shares on the applicable date), # facilitate a sale of Shares payable pursuant to the Award Opportunity to cover such tax withholding obligation, or # apply any other withholding method determined by the Company; provided that in no event shall the value of the Shares retained or sold exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld or such other amount that will not result in a negative accounting impact.

Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to withhold or require separate payment of all Federal, state, local or other taxes or payments with respect to any Award or payment made under the Plan. Such amounts shall be withheld or paid prior to the delivery of any certificate representing Shares or any other Award subject to such withholding. Such a payment may be made by the delivery of cash (or other consideration acceptable to the Company, including, if acceptable, Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the withholding obligation) to the Company in an amount that equals or exceeds the withholding obligation of the Company. In the event of a transfer of an Award, the Participant who assigns the Award shall remain subject to withholding taxes or similar obligations upon exercise of the Award by the transferee to the extent required by the Code or other applicable laws. All determinations of withholding liability under this Section shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion and shall be binding upon the Participant.

Withholding. The Company’s obligations hereunder in connection with any Award shall be subject to applicable foreign, federal, state and local withholding tax requirements. Foreign, federal, state and local withholding tax due under the terms of the Plan may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock (either through the surrender of already-owned shares of Common Stock that the Participant has held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company’s reported earnings or the withholding of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise or payment of such Award) having a Fair Market Value equal to the required withholding and upon such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine; provided, however, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require that such taxes be paid in cash; and provided, further, any election by a Participant subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to pay his or her withholding tax in shares of Common Stock shall be subject to and must comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.
