The Employee is responsible for payment of any taxes required by law to be withheld by the Company with respect to an Award. To facilitate that payment, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, retain from the number of shares of Common Stock issued to the Employee in settlement of an LTIP Award that number of shares necessary for payment of the minimum tax withholding amount, valued at their Fair Market Value on the business day most immediately preceding the date of retention. To the extent the Company's withholding obligation cannot be satisfied by means of share withholding, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment of any kind due to the Employee.
