• Associates running for office can disclose their current or prior affiliation with GameStop in the course of their election campaign. However, an
Associate is prohibited from using GameStop's name in a way that suggests GameStop's endorsement of the Associate's candidacy, unless the
Associate has GameStop's explicit written permission from the Chief Executive Officer or the Chairman to do so.
• Associates running for, or elected to, public office can retain their jobs only if they can continue to provide full attention to their work duties.
Associates seeking election to a full-time office must resign or request a leave of absence without pay. Associates on leave without pay because they
are running for, or have been elected to, public office are not guaranteed reinstatement to their prior position or any position at GameStop.
• Associates elected to public office are required to resolve to GameStop's satisfaction any conflicts of interest that set the Associate's loyalty to
GameStop in conflict with the Associate's duties in public office. Major conflicts of interest might require the Associate to transfer to a new position
or resign employment with GameStop.
Compliance with This Policy
Engaging in any activity, transaction, or relationship that is adverse to GameStop's interests or failing to make disclosures required by this policy can result in
immediate corrective action, up to and including termination of employment and the exercise of other legal remedies that may be available to the Company.
GameStop will take appropriate corrective action when it has knowledge that an Associate has engaged in activity prohibited by this policy.
It is the responsibility of the GameStop Board of Directors to instruct management that the principles and guidelines contained in this policy are regularly
communicated to, and are understood and observed by, all GameStop Associates. Management will be required to certify compliance with this policy on an
annual basis, and the Board will monitor this certification.
The Board will not censure management for any loss of business resulting from compliance with the provisions of this policy. Equally, all Associates are to be
aware of their personal responsibility in complying with these same provisions and reporting any known or suspected violations of this policy. The Board
undertakes that no Associate will be subject to any form of retaliation as a consequence of bringing to GameStop's attention any breach or suspected breach of
any requirements mandated by this policy.
Reporting Known or Suspected Policy Violations
Alleged violations of this policy and the basis for the allegations shall be communicated confidentially via either:
—
The confidential whistleblower "Hero" hotline at 1-800-306-9330 or
—
By contacting the Human Resources Department at 1-817-424-2000.
GameStop will investigate all credible allegations concerning violations of this policy.
