Item 5.05                                            Amendments to the Registrant’s Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics.

 

On June 30, 2010, our board of directors amended our code of business conduct and ethics to include an additional provision related to associate and vendor relationships.  The following example of a conflict of interest has been added to Section IV of our code of business conduct and ethics:

 

Associate and Vendor Relationships - It would be considered a conflict of interest if an associate has or had a romantic and/or sexual relationship with another associate where either associate participates in the decision-making process relating to employment, work assignment, progression, performance, compensation or promotion issues for the other associate.  It would be considered a conflict of interest if an associate has or had a romantic and/or sexual relationship with an employee of a vendor or supplier and the associate participated in the decision-making process relating to purchasing, selling or any business with such vendor or supplier.”

 

A copy of our code of business conduct and ethics, as amended to reflect the change described above, is attached as exhibit 99.1 to this current report on form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
