An Ethicspoint compliance specialist will guide you through the questions to complete the report. The reports will be available only to specific
individuals in the Company who are charged with evaluating and, when appropriate, investigating the violation. The system is designed so that
no report is ever shared with implicated parties.
The Company believes this hotline will be an effective tool in reducing losses from improper accounting, fraud, theft and other illegal and/or
unethical practices and therefore help to protect the Company’
s reputation and financial strength. If you are uncertain if a practice violates
Company policy or is illegal, please call the hotline. The Company would rather be informed of a potential problem than let it go unchecked.
Should you have any questions regarding the anonymous reporting procedures or the hotline, you may contact Eric Lerner, the Company’
s
Senior Vice President and General Counsel.
In certain very limited circumstances, the Company, acting through the Board of Directors
Corporate Governance Committee and after being
provided with full and complete information as to the circumstances, upon the request of a Company Representative, may permit an activity
otherwise restricted under this Policy (other than an activity that would constitute illegal conduct). In such cases, prior written disclosure of the
matter shall be made to one of the persons identified in Section 11 above for further consideration by the Corporate Governance Committee as to
whether such activity should be permitted. In the event that such waiver is requested by a director or executive officer of the Company, such
waiver may be granted only by the Board, and must be promptly disclosed to shareholders.
It is the duty of all Company Representatives to see that these policies are followed. Every Company Representative is expected to comply with
the policies set forth above. Failure to do so may not only harm the Company and your fellow employees, it will subject you to disciplinary
action, including termination of employment under appropriate circumstances.
