Tax Withholding. To the extent the Company or any Subsidiary is required to withhold any federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes in connection with the settlement of the Restricted Share Units, then the Company or Subsidiary (as applicable) shall retain a number of Shares otherwise deliverable hereunder with a value equal to the required withholding (based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the applicable date); provided that in no event shall the value of the Shares retained exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld or such other amount that will not result in a negative accounting impact. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantee may elect, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Company from time to time, to either # pay or provide for payment of the required tax withholding, or # have the required tax withholding deducted from any amount of salary, bonus, incentive compensation or other amounts otherwise payable in cash to Grantee; provided that the Company may require the use of one or both of these methods in the event that the Company or any Subsidiary is required to withhold taxes at any time other than upon delivery of the Shares.

Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any compensation due the Grantee from the Company any federal, state, local or foreign taxes required by the law of any jurisdiction to be withheld in connection with the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of Shares or the vesting of Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall retain Shares otherwise deliverable on the Settlement Date in an amount sufficient to satisfy the amount of tax required to be withheld provided that such amounts shall not exceed the statutorily required maximum withholding. The determination of the number of Shares retained for this purpose shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares. Tax withholding shall be calculated based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Settlement Date. In the event that the retention of Shares to satisfy withholding taxes would otherwise result in the delivery of a fractional Share, the Company will round up to the next whole Share and apply the value of the fractional Share to the recipient's tax obligations or, in the alternative, the Company may make such other arrangements to avoid the issuance of a fractional Share as may be permitted by law. No Shares shall be transferred to the Grantee hereunder until such time as all applicable withholding taxes have been satisfied. The Company will not retain Shares as described herein unless tax withholding applies under the laws of the local jurisdiction. To the extent that the amounts payable to the Grantee are insufficient for such withholding, it shall be a condition to the issuance of Shares or the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, as the case may be, that the Grantee shall pay such taxes or make provisions that are satisfactory to the Company for the payment thereof.

Section # Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to require the Grantee to remit to the Company an amount necessary to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements attributable to the vesting and payment of the Restricted Stock Units prior to the delivery of the Distributed Shares, or may withhold from the Distributed Shares an amount of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such federal, state or local taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

Withholding of Taxes. As a condition of making any payments or issuing any shares upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Grantee or other person entitled to such Shares or other payment shall pay any sums required to be withheld by federal, state, local, or other applicable tax law with respect to such vesting or payment. In accordance with any procedures established by the Committee, Grantee may satisfy any required withholding payments in cash or Shares (including the surrender of Shares held by Grantee or those that would otherwise be issued in settlement of the Award). Any surrendered or withheld Shares will constitute satisfaction of any required tax withholding to the extent of their Fair Market Value.

If required by federal, state, or local tax laws, the Grantee shall be required to pay to the Company, and the Company shall have the right to deduct from any cash compensation, including wages, paid to the Grantee by the Company or one of its Affiliates, the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect of the Restricted Stock Units and to take all such other action as the Administrator deems necessary to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit the Grantee to satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation, in whole or in party by selling a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Grantee through such means as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld.
