3.Tax Withholding.
As a condition of this Award, the Employee agrees to pay or make arrangements for the payment to the Company of the amount of any and all federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes that the Company determines it is required by law to withhold with respect to this Award. Payment will be due on the date the Company is required to withhold such taxes. Unless the Employee elects to make a cash payment to the Company in an amount sufficient to satisfy the withholding requirement, then, notwithstanding Section 5(c), the Company will satisfy the withholding requirement in accordance with Section 18 of the Plan by withholding from delivery to the Employee, Shares having a value equal to the amount of tax required to be withheld. The Company will provide procedures for Employees electing to make a cash payment to satisfy the withholding requirement.
