If so requested by CAB and through calculation with and CAB’s approval at the time of any and each award, all restricted common share awards mentioned in this Agreement shall be subject to a reduction in the number of restricted common shares issued to CAB per grant to be paid instead as cash proportional to the tax liability to be incurred by CAB at the time of the award. The Company would withhold from payment to CAB that fraction of restricted common shares in each of the paragraphs in Section 3, above, that would correspond with the federal and provincial income tax payments otherwise payable by CAB specifically with respect to each award only, and CAB agrees that such a hybrid payment of cash and restricted common shares would fulfill the obligations of the Company with respect to each affected award. The intent of this partial cash payment would be to provide cash compensation to CAB in the proportionate amount of each restricted common share award and it is expressly agreed that it remains the sole responsibility of CAB to remit all amounts due to Provincial and Federal tax authorities. This provision does not conflict with nor negate the validity of Section4.6, 4.7, or 4.8.
