I see... So what should in theory fix it is if the company granting you the options also provided a guarantee that they will buy shares from you should you be inclined to sell them (A sort of a "sell at current price" option I suppose). This way you can exercise the options, and sell enough shares to cover the tax obligation and hang on to the rest.
