 4. No Right to Continued Employment.
  
 Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate the Grantee’s service as a Board member, nor confer upon the Grantee any right to continuance of service as a Board member.
  
 5. Withholding of Taxes.
  
 Prior to the delivery to the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate, if applicable) of a stock certificate or evidence of book entry Shares with respect to Shares in respect of which all restrictions have lapsed, the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) shall pay to the Company the federal, state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by the Company with respect to such Shares.
