If your Continuous Service ends as a result of a termination by the Company or its Related Entities other than for Cause, then the Committee may, in its discretion, vest, on such date of termination of Continuous service, Awarded RSUs not previously vested or forfeited.
Section 3.
Dividend Equivalents. Any Dividend Equivalents relating to the Awarded RSUs will be accounted for and paid to you in whole Shares, if, as, and when the related Awarded RSUs become vested (with any amounts that would result in fractional Shares being paid to you in cash).
Section 4.
Voting Rights. You will not have the right to vote Shares unless and until you receive a payment of vested Awarded RSUs in the form of Shares.

No Right to Continued Service. Nothing in this Award Agreement, or any action of the Board or Committee with respect to this Award Agreement, shall be held or construed to confer upon you any right to a continuation of Continuous Service.

Section 6.
Taxes. Where you or any other person is entitled to receive Shares pursuant to the vesting of Awarded RSUs pursuant to this Award Agreement, the Company shall have the right to require you or such other person to pay to the Company the amount of any tax which the Company is required to withhold with respect to such Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or to sell without notice, a sufficient number of Shares to cover the amount required to be withheld.
