In this regard, the Optionee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, in their sole discretion and without any notice or further authorization by the Optionee, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Optionee (or otherwise due from the Optionee as set forth above in this paragraph 4) and any hypothetical theoretical taxes from the Optionee’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or the Employer or from proceeds of the sale of Option Shares. Alternatively, or in addition, the Company may instruct the broker it has selected for this purpose (on the Optionee’s behalf and at the Optionee’s direction pursuant to this authorization without further consent) to sell the Option Shares that the Optionee acquires to meet the Tax-Related Items withholding obligation and any hypothetical theoretical taxes. In addition, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Tax-Related Items or hypothetical theoretical taxes may be paid by withholding from Option Shares subject to the exercised Option, provided, however, that withholding in Option Shares shall be subject to approval by the Committee to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by counsel to the Company at the time of any relevant tax withholding event. Finally, the Optionee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items and hypothetical theoretical taxes that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan or the Optionee’s exercise of the Option that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Depending upon the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items and any hypothetical theoretical taxes by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates in the Optionee’s jurisdiction(s)rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Optionee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent shares of Common Stock. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, the Optionee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Option Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Option Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items and/or hypothetical taxes due as a result of any aspect of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan.
