(i) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee or the Independent Directors, as applicable, and to the extent permitted or required by law, the Shares granted under this Agreement shall become transferable upon the Grantee becoming eligible for Retirement, as defined in the Plan, only and to the extent sufficient, if sold at Fair Market Value, as defined in the Plan, on the date of such eligibility, to provide for the payment of the tax liability caused as a consequence of such eligibility condition in accordance with applicable tax laws. It is understood that the remaining portion of the Shares granted under this Agreement shall continue to vest according to its original schedule.

 

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Capital One will instruct the Plan administrator to withhold and transfer to Capital One the Restricted Stock that becomes transferable pursuant to the immediately foregoing paragraph in satisfaction of Grantee’s tax withholding liability, unless Grantee notifies Capital One of Grantee’s intention to satisfy such tax withholding obligations in another permissible manner not less than 60 days prior to such eligibility date. Capital One reserves the right to change this instruction at any time.
