Common use of Withholding Requirement Clause in Contracts

Withholding Requirement. The Committee may, in its discretion, require you to pay to the Company at the time of exercise of an Option or thereafter, the amount that the Committee deems necessary to satisfy the Company’s current or future obligation to withhold federal, state or local income or other taxes that you incur by exercising the Option. In connection with such an event requiring tax withholding, you may (i) direct the Company, in the Company’s discretion, to withhold from the shares of Stock to be issued upon exercise the number of shares necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to withhold taxes, that determination to be based on the shares’ Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise; (ii) deliver to the Company, in the Company’s discretion, sufficient shares of Stock (based upon the Fair Market Value as of the date of such delivery) to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligation; or (iii) deliver sufficient cash to the Company to satisfy its tax withholding obligations. If you elect to use a Stock withholding feature, you must make the election at the time and in the manner that the Committee prescribes. The Committee may, at its sole option, deny your request to satisfy withholding obligations through shares of Stock instead of cash.
