Anti-pledgingThe Company's Insider Trading Policy prohibits purchasing or holding securities in a margin account. Note: certain directors and NEOs have pledged shares as collateral for bank financings in the ordinary course of business, which appears to be permitted under a separate carve-out for ordinary banking relationships.
