understandable disclosure in Company filings and public communications. The information included in all filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc., and all other public communications must be complete,
timely and accurate, and must not omit any material fact required so that the information disclosed is not misleading. The Employees must comply with the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as may be amended from time to time.

III. Interaction with Auditors
