SECTION 3. Withholding, Section 83(b) Election, Consents and Legends. (a) Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to require, as a condition to the release of Restricted Stock that vests pursuant to this Agreement, that the Company may satisfy the obligation to pay all applicable withholding taxes relating thereto as determined by the Company by having the Company retain Shares upon the vesting of Restricted Stock to cover the amount of such withholding tax in an amount having a value determined by the Company equal to such withholding tax. The Company and each of its Affiliates shall have the right and are hereby authorized to withhold the amount (in cash or, in the discretion of the Committee, Shares, other securities, other awards or other property) of any applicable withholding taxes as determined by the Company in respect of the Restricted Stock and to take such other action as may be necessary in the discretion of the Committee to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes.
