entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price any amounts required to be deducted or withheld under applicable law; provided, however,

Stockholder of its intention to deduct and withhold such amounts and the reason therefor no later than three (3) days prior to such withholding and shall cooperate with the applicable Selling Stockholder in good faith to reduce the amount of, or
eliminate the necessity for, such withholding. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely remitted to the proper taxing authority, such deducted or withheld and timely remitted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.
