Tax Withholding Obligations. The following provisions supplement supplements Section 2.5 4.3(d) of the Agreement: The Associate Optionee agrees that if he or she does not pay or the Employer or the Company does not withhold from the Associate Optionee the full amount of Tax-Related Items that the Associate Optionee owes at vesting exercise of the RSUsOption, or the release or assignment of the Option for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the RSUs Option (the “Taxable Event”), within 90 days after the Taxable Event or such other period specified in section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Xxx 0000, then the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by the Associate Optionee to the Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. The Associate Optionee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) and will be immediately due and repayable by the AssociateOptionee, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to the Associate Optionee by the Employer, by withholding in Shares issued upon vesting of the RSUs or from the cash proceeds from the sale of Shares or by demanding cash or a check cheque from the AssociateOptionee. The Associate Optionee also authorizes the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares unless and until the loan is repaid in full. The Associate Optionee acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and NICs National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Section 2.5 4.3(d) of the Agreement, although the Associate Optionee acknowledges that the Associate Optionee ultimately will be responsible for reporting any income tax or National Insurance Contributions NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Optionee is a Director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Paragraph 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Optionee will not be eligible for such a loan to cover the unpaid income taxes. In the event that the Optionee is such a Director or executive officer and the income taxes are not collected from or paid by the Optionee by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income taxes will constitute a benefit to the Optionee on which additional income tax and NICs (including Employer NICs) will be payable. The Optionee will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax and NICs due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
