It is expected that the business and individual goals and objectives established for this Plan will be accomplished in accordance with the Company’s policy on ethical conduct in business with the U.S. Government and all other customers.

Ethical behavior is imperative. Thus, in achieving one’s goals, the Participant’s individual commitment and adherence to the Company’s ethical standards will be considered paramount in determining awards under this Plan.
