Tax Withholding. Pursuant to Article 14 of the Plan, the Committee has the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local taxes (including the Participant's FICA obligations) required by law to be withheld with respect to the Award and Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may condition the delivery of vested Shares upon the Participant's satisfaction of such withholding obligations. The withholding requirement for Shares will be satisfied by the Company withholding Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to federal income tax withholding obligations using an IRS accepted methodology plus additional amounts for state and local tax purposes, as applicable, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income but with rates not to exceed the maximum effective statutory rates, unless the Participant elects, in a manner satisfactory to the Committee, to remit an amount to satisfy the withholding requirement subject to such restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Such election must be made before, and is irrevocable after, December 15 of the last year in the Vesting Schedule, and cannot be made or revoked while the Participant possesses information that will be material nonpublic information at the time the Shares are issued such that the Participant would be prohibited from trading on the Company’s stock under its Insider Trading Policy.

Applicable Withholding Taxes. Each Participant shall agree, as a condition of receiving an Award, to pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, all applicable federal, state and local taxes (including the Participant's FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any grant, exercise, or payment made under or as a result of the Plan. Until the applicable withholding taxes have been paid or arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made, no stock certificates (or, in the case of Restricted Stock, no stock certificates free of a restrictive legend) shall be issued to the Participant and no issuance in book-entry or electronic form (or, in the case of Restricted Stock, no issuance in book-entry or electronic form free of a restrictive legend or notation) shall be made for the Participant. As an alternative to making a cash payment to the Company to satisfy applicable withholding tax obligations, Participants may elect or the Committee may require Participants to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or by delivering to the Company Shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The value of any Shares so withheld or delivered shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Participants shall be irrevocable and be made in writing and in such manner as determined by the Committee (or its delegee) in advance of the day that the transaction becomes taxable.

Withholding. A Participant may be required to pay to an Employer, and each Employer shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any Award, from any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant, the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property) required by law or regulation to be withheld to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, foreign or domestic, with respect to an Award, its exercise, or any payment or transfer under an Award or under the Plan and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. The Committee may provide for additional cash payments to holders of Awards to defray or offset any tax arising from the grant, Vesting, exercise, or payment of any Award. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted or thereafter, any such withholding requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from the Award Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the amount required to be withheld in accordance with applicable tax requirements, all in accordance with such procedures as the Committee approves (which procedures may permit withholding up to the maximum individual statutory rate in the applicable jurisdiction as may be permitted under then-current accounting principles to qualify for equity classification). All such elections shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

The Committee shall require payment of any amount it may determine to be necessary to withhold for federal, state, local or other taxes as a result of the exercise, grant or vesting of an Award. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise, the Participant may elect to pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by # delivery of Shares or # having Shares withheld by the Company with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory withholding rate from any Shares that would have otherwise been received by the Participant.

In accordance with [Section 5(f)] of the Plan, the Company shall have the power and right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and other taxes (including the Participant’s payroll tax obligations) required by law to be withheld with respect to this Award. The Participant may be required to pay to the Company in cash or cash equivalents, either prior to or concurrent with the delivery of Shares in respect of any Restricted Share Units that vest, the amount required by law to be withheld. The Company may establish other rules and procedures to allow the Participant to satisfy and to facilitate the required tax withholding from time to time.

Withholding Taxes. The Company or any of its subsidiaries shall have the right to retain and withhold the amount of taxes required by any government to be withheld or otherwise deducted and paid with respect to the Award Shares, provided that the Company or a subsidiary shall withhold only the minimum amount necessary to satisfy applicable statutory withholding requirements unless the Participant has elected to have an additional amount (up to the maximum allowed by law) withheld. At its discretion, the Committee may require the Participant to reimburse the Company for any such taxes required to be withheld by the Company and to withhold any distribution in whole or in part until the Company is so reimbursed. In accordance with procedures established by the Committee, the Participant or any successor in interest is authorized to deliver shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined and cancel any such shares so delivered in order to satisfy the Company's withholding obligations. In accordance with procedures established by the Committee, the Participant or any successor in interest is also authorized to elect to have the Company retain and withhold shares of vesting Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined and cancel any such shares so withheld in order to satisfy the Company's withholding obligations. In the event the Participant does not deliver or elect to have the Company retain and withhold shares of Stock as described in this Section 8, the Company shall have the right to withhold from any other cash amounts due to or to become due from the Company or a subsidiary to the Participant an amount equal to such taxes required to be withheld by the Company to reimburse the Company for any such taxes.

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.

Withholding Taxes. The Company or an Affiliate shall be entitled to: # withhold and deduct from future wages of a Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to a Participant from the Company or an Affiliate), including all payments under this Plan, or make other arrangements for the collection of (including through the sale of Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the applicable Award), all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all federal, state, local and foreign withholding and employment-related tax requirements attributable to an Award, including, without limitation, the grant, exercise or vesting of, or payment of dividends with respect to, an Award or a disqualifying disposition of Shares received upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option; or # require a Participant promptly to remit the amount of such withholding to the Company before taking any action with respect to an Award. To the extent specified by the Committee, withholding may be satisfied by withholding Shares to be received upon exercise or vesting of an Award or by delivery to the Company of previously owned Shares. In addition, the Company may reasonably delay the issuance or delivery of Shares pursuant to an Award as it determines appropriate to address tax withholding and other administrative matters.

In order to comply with all applicable federal, state, local or foreign income tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable federal, state, local or foreign payroll, withholding, income or other taxes, which are the sole and absolute responsibility of a Participant, are withheld or collected from such Participant. In order to assist a Participant in paying all or a portion of the applicable taxes to be withheld or collected upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) an Award, the Committee, in its discretion and subject to such additional terms and conditions as it may adopt, may permit the Participant to satisfy such tax obligation by # electing to have the Company withhold a portion of the Shares otherwise to be delivered upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) such Award with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such taxes or # delivering to the Company Shares other than Shares issuable upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) such Award with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such taxes. The election, if any, must be made on or before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.

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.
