Acknowledgement and Certificate of Compliance
In order to abide by the Code, we must fully understand it. Accordingly, everyone
subject to the Code must read the Code and sign an Acknowledgement and
Certificate of Compliance (“Acknowledgement”) at initial hire, annually, and
at any other time as requested by the Company. Each time you are asked to
sign an Acknowledgement, you will be asked to report situations of which you
are aware that do not comply with the Code (called “exceptions”). You must
report all possible exceptions involving you or others that are known to you.
If you become aware of an exception after you sign an Acknowledgement,
you must promptly inform your manager, the Chief Ethics Officer, or the
applicable country-specific resource listed in the appendix to the Code.
Each exception will be reviewed on an individual basis to determine whether a
Code violation exists and, if so, if a waiver of the applicable Code provision(s) is
appropriate, based upon the individual facts and circumstances. Waivers for
executive officers and members of the Board of Directors may be made, if at
all, only by the Board of Directors.
Failure to sign an Acknowledgement or to promptly disclose a known
exception is a violation of the Code.
Failure to read the Code or to sign an Acknowledgement will not relieve
you of your obligations under the Code.
