E. | Taxes. Taxes may be assessed and/or withheld as required by law at applicable United States federal, state and/or other tax rates (under the laws of the jurisdictions in which you reside or that may otherwise be applicable to you) with respect to Units, issuance of Shares and cash in lieu of dividends. The Company will accelerate the vesting and payment of Units to pay your Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax on Units, the income tax withholding that results from payment of your FICA tax, and your additional FICA |

The Company's right of recovery applies to both the vested and unvested portion of the Award. |
