| Payment of Withholding Taxes:                         |   | If at any time the  Company becomes obligated to withhold any amount for federal, state or local  taxes imposed as a result of the grant of this Restricted Stock to you,  including, without limitation, any employment tax, income tax, F.I.C.A., or  state disability insurance (the date upon which the Company becomes so  obligated shall be referred to herein as the “Withholding Date”), then you  shall pay any such tax liability, in cash or by check with immediately  available funds, to the Company on or before the Withholding Date or shall  assign to the Company from the proceeds of any agreed upon sale of Restricted  Stock the amount necessary to pay the tax liability. Execution of this  Agreement constitutes your authorization and consent to the Company  withholding the full amount of any tax liability from compensation or other  amounts due and otherwise payable to you in the event that you do not pay the  tax liability to the Company on or before the Withholding Date or assign to  the Company sufficient proceeds from a sale of Restricted Stock to pay the  tax liability and you further agree that any such withholding and payment of  any tax liability by the Company to the relevant taxing authority shall  constitute full satisfaction of the Company’s obligation to pay such  compensation or other amounts to you.

 

In addition to the  foregoing, all or any portion of the taxes required to be withheld by the  Company in connection with the exercise, vesting, settlement or transfer of  any Restricted Stock award, may, at your election, be paid by the Company by  withholding shares of the Company’s capital stock otherwise issuable or  subject to the Restricted Stock Award, having a fair market value equal to  the amount required or elected to be withheld or paid.  Any such election is subject to such  conditions or procedures as may be established by the Committee and may be  subject to disapproval by the Committee. |
