As a public company traded on the NASDAQ, Lawson must make timely and accurate disclosure of material information to the public. However, United States securities laws prohibit the selective disclosure of material non-public information and prohibit disclosure of false or misleading information. Lawson has established a centralized disclosure process by appointing designated spokespersons who are the only personnel authorized to discuss information about Lawson outside of the company. Unless you have been expressly authorized by Lawson’s CEO, CFO, SVP of Marketing, VP of Corporate Communications, VP of Investor Relations, or their designees to act as a spokesperson for Lawson, you may not respond to inquires from the press, analysts, or investors, or make any other public statements about Lawson. In addition, all media and industry analyst interviews must be managed through Lawson Corporate Communications and have a representative from Lawson Corporate Communications attend the interview. All discussions or meetings with analysts or investors must be managed through Investor Relations and have a representative from Investor Relations attend. Interviews and other disclosures must comply with SEC fair disclosure rules, provide consistent brand messaging and manage any action items or corrective follow-up. No Lawson employee may make any unauthorized public or private disclosure about Lawson.

In addition, no Lawson employee may participate in any Internet (external and open to the public) chat rooms, weblogs, bulletin boards or other electronic sites or mediums with (1) any information about Lawson, (2) postings that are related to or perceived to be related to your position and/or employment at Lawson or (3) information about Lawson's customers unless expressly authorized to do so by Lawson’s Legal Department.
