Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. (a) The Grantee shall receive payment, subject to satisfaction of the Grantee's tax withholding obligations as described below, with respect to such vested Restricted Stock Units in the form of shares of Company Stock on the date that the Restricted Stock Units become vested and nonforfeitable. However, if a scheduled issuance date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or U.S. federal holiday, such issuance date shall instead fall on the next following day that the principal executive offices of the Company are open for business. The Grantee is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement and payment of the Restricted Stock Units. The Company will issue to the Grantee, in settlement of the Grantee's vested Restricted Stock Units and subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) below, the number of whole shares of Company Stock that equals the number of whole Restricted Stock Units that become vested, and such vested Restricted Stock Units will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon such issuance of the shares of Company Stock. Upon issuance of such shares, the Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such shares of Company Stock on the Grantee's behalf electronically to the Company's designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason. (b) All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the rights of the Company or the Grantee’s employer as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to be withheld for any taxes, if applicable. Regardless of any action the Company or the Grantee’s employer takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Grantee’s employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Grantee’s employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Company Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of shares of Company Stock acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Grantee’s employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Grantee’s employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Grantee’s employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by the Company and/or the Grantee’s employer; or (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Company Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (iii) withholding in shares of Company Stock to be issued upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units. If the Grantee is subject to the short-swing profit rules of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company elects to satisfy the obligations by withholding in shares of Company Stock, the Grantee is advised to consult with his or her personal legal, tax, or financial advisor. To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Company Stock, for tax purposes, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Company Stock subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Company Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Grantee’s employer, as the case may be, any amount of Tax- Related Items that the Company or the Grantee’s employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares of Company Stock or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Company Stock if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (i) the Grantee is subject to the Company's policy permitting employees to sell shares of Company Stock only during certain "window" periods, in effect from time to time or the Grantee is otherwise prohibited from selling shares of Company Stock in the public market and any shares of Company Stock covered by the Grantee's Restricted Stock Units are scheduled to be issued on a day (the "Original Distribution Date") that does not occur during an open "window period" applicable to the Grantee, as determined by the Company in accordance with such policy, or does not occur on a date when the Grantee is otherwise permitted to sell shares of Company Stock in the open market, and (ii) the Company elects not to satisfy its tax withholding obligations by withholding shares of Company Stock from the Grantee's distribution and such Tax-Related Items have not otherwise been satisfied in accordance with Section 5(b), then, at the Company’s election, such shares of Company Stock may not be issued and delivered on such Original Distribution Date and shall instead be issued and delivered on the first business day of the next occurring open "window period" applicable to the Grantee pursuant to such policy (regardless of whether the Grantee is still providing continuous services at such time) or the next business day when the Grantee is not prohibited from selling shares of Company Stock in the open market, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Original Distribution Date occurs. In all cases, the issuance and delivery of shares of Company Stock under this Agreement is intended to comply with U.S. Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such a manner. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in no event shall the Board exercise its discretion to accelerate the payment or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units where such payment or settlement constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of section 409A of the Code unless, and solely to the extent that, such accelerated payment or settlement is permissible under U.S. Treas. Reg. § 1.409A- 3(j)(4) or any successor provision. (d) The obligation of the Company to deliver Company Stock shall be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Company Stock upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal or foreign law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of shares of Company Stock, the shares of Company Stock may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Company Stock to the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state or U.S. or foreign government having jurisdiction thereof.
