Communications received through our Ethics & Compliance helpline will be forwarded to the Chair of the Audit Committee, who will determine the method of communication to the applicable Director or Directors. Communications received by the Corporate Secretary will be reviewed, and complaints or concerns regarding accounting, internal account controls, auditing, ethics, fraud, or legal or regulatory compliance matters will be forwarded to the Chair of the Audit Committee.
All other communications pertaining to the functions of the Board of Directors will be forwarded directly to the individual Director or group of Directors to whom they are addressed.
Communications which are unrelated to the functions of the Board of Directors, such as individual customer complaints, mass mailings, new product or service suggestions, resumes and other forms of job inquiries, business solicitations, advertisements or surveys, will not be forwarded to Directors.
