To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, and paid over to the appropriate governmental authority, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Series A Preferred Stock or SAFEs in respect of which the deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.
