Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award, the Company has the right and power to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable tax withholding requirements. The Board, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or part of the tax withholding obligations in connection with an Award by # having the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares, or # delivering to the Company Shares already owned for a period of at least six (6) months and having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The amount of the withholding requirement will be deemed to include any amount that the Compensation Committee and/or the Board determines, not to exceed the amount determined by using the maximum federal, state or local marginal income tax rates applicable to the Participant with respect to the Award on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined for these purposes. For these purposes, the value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be equal to the Market Value as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.

The Committee in its sole discretion may make available one or more of the following alternatives for the payment of such taxes: # in cash; # in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted notice together with irrevocable instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the Shares subject to the Award to pay the withholding taxes; # by directing the Company to withhold such number of Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the Award having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld; or # by delivering (either directly or through attestation) previously acquired Shares that have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the required withholding taxes.

Withholding Requirements.

The amount of such withholding or tax payment shall be determined by the Company and, in the Company’s sole discretion, such withholding obligation shall be satisfied by # having the Company withhold from such Award that number of Shares whose aggregate Fair Market Value on the date such Shares are withheld satisfies the amount of withholding taxes due, provided that the number of such Shares may not have a Fair Market Value greater than the minimum required statutory withholding liability unless determined by the Committee not to result in adverse accounting consequences, # direct payment (including by payroll deduction) by the Participant to the Company in cash of the amount of any taxes required to be withheld with respect to such Award, or # a combination of (a) and (b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to all Awards other than Options, if a Participant’s benefit is to be received in the form of Shares, then, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company will withhold from such Award that number of Shares whose aggregate Fair Market Value on the date such Shares are withheld satisfies the amount of withholding taxes due, provided that the number of such Shares may not have a Fair Market Value greater than the minimum required statutory withholding liability unless determined by the Committee not to result in adverse accounting consequences.
