honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

the prompt internal reporting of violations of this Code; and

 







  

accountability for adherence to this Code.

The
Company has established standards for behavior that affect the Company, and officers, directors and employees should pattern their daily performance in compliance with those standards. The Company promotes ethical behavior and encourages employees
to talk to supervisors, managers, the Chief Compliance Officer or other appropriate personnel when in doubt about the best course of action in a particular situation. For purposes of this Code, the “Chief Compliance Officer” shall be the
General Counsel of the Company. Additionally, officers, directors and employees should promptly report any suspected misconduct, illegal activities or fraud, including any questionable accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters,
or other violations of laws, rules, regulations or this Code in accordance with the Company’s Whistleblower Policy. Individuals reporting such violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation. Any person in or aware of a situation
that he or she believes may violate or lead to a violation of this Code should follow the guidelines set forth in the Company’s Whistleblower Policy and under the heading “Compliance and Reporting” below.

STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px">This Code covers a wide range of business practices and procedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise, but it sets out basic principles to guide all
employees, officers and directors of the Company. Corporate policies and procedures provide details pertinent to many of the provisions of this Code. Officers, directors and employees are expected to be aware of, and to act in accordance with, both
this Code and the Company’s other policies and procedures at all times. Although there can be no better course of action than to apply common sense and sound judgment, do not hesitate to use the resources available whenever it is necessary to
seek clarification. Failure to adhere to this Code or the Company’s other policies and procedures may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
