Pursuant to such procedures as the Committee may specify from time to time, the Company shall withhold the amount required to be withheld for the payment of Tax Obligations.  The Committee, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Grantee to satisfy such Tax Obligations, in whole or in part (without limitation), if permissible by applicable law, by (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Restricted Shares having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as Grantee may elect if permitted by the Committee, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences), (iii) withholding the amount of such Tax Obligations from Grantee&#8217;s wages or other cash compensation paid to Grantee by the Company, (iv) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a fair market value equal to such Tax Obligations, or (v) selling a sufficient number of such Restricted Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as Grantee may elect if permitted by the Committee, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences).  To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax Obligations by reducing the number of Restricted Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee.  If Grantee fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of such Tax Obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Shares otherwise are scheduled to vest or at the time Grantee files a timely 83(b) Election with the IRS, Grantee will permanently forfeit such Restricted Shares and any right to receive Restricted Shares hereunder and such Restricted Shares will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

Grantee further acknowledges that the Company (A) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Shares, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the Restricted Shares, the filing of an 83(b) election with respect to the Restricted Shares, the subsequent sale of Restricted Shares acquired pursuant to this Award Agreement and the receipt of any dividends or other distributions, and (B) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award of Restricted Shares to reduce or eliminate Grantee&#8217;s liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result.  If Grantee fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax Obligations hereunder at the time of the applicable taxable event, Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Restricted Shares.  Grantee understands that Code Section 83 taxes as ordinary income the difference between the purchase price, if any, for the Restricted Shares and the fair market value of the Restricted Shares as of each vesting date.  If Grantee is a U.S. taxpayer, Grantee understands that Grantee may elect, for purposes of U.S. tax law, to be taxed at the time the Restricted Shares are issued rather than when such Restricted Shares vest by filing an election under Code Section 83(b) (the &#8220;</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">83(b) Election</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8221;) with the IRS within thirty (30) days from the issue date of the Restricted Shares.</font></div><div style="height:67.5pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">3</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:67.5pt;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-indent:72pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">b.  </font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Restricted Shares may be issued unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) will have been made by the Grantee with respect to the payment of all Tax Obligations.  Prior to vesting of the Restricted Shares, Grantee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all Tax Obligations.  Pursuant to such procedures as the Committee may specify from time to time, the Company shall withhold the amount required to be withheld for the payment of Tax Obligations.  The Committee, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Grantee to satisfy such Tax Obligations, in whole or in part (without limitation), if permissible by applicable law, by (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Restricted Shares having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as Grantee may elect if permitted by the Committee, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences), (iii) withholding the amount of such Tax Obligations from Grantee&#8217;s wages or other cash compensation paid to Grantee by the Company, (iv) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a fair market value equal to such Tax Obligations, or (v) selling a sufficient number of such Restricted Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as Grantee may elect if permitted by the Committee, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences).  To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax Obligations by reducing the number of Restricted Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee.  If Grantee fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of such Tax Obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Shares otherwise are scheduled to vest or at the time Grantee files a timely 83(b) Election with the IRS, Grantee will permanently forfeit such Restricted Shares and any right to receive Restricted Shares hereunder and such Restricted Shares will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.  Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to deliver the Restricted Shares if such Tax Obligations are not paid at the time they are due.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">11.</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Amendment</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">.</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">  </font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Plan&#8217;s amendment and termination provisions in </font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Article VI</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> apply to this Award Agreement, as well.
