Item 5.05. Amendments to the Registrant’s Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics.
On September 21, 2021, the Board of Directors of Iridium Communications Inc. (the “Registrant”) adopted a new Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) for the Registrant. The Code is applicable to all of the Company’s directors, officers and employees. The new Code is designed to maintain the Registrant’s high ethical standards, while at the same time being more accessible to employees through greater use of plain English, a more logical organization, and the removal of more detailed government contractor compliance requirements to a separate, standalone policy. The full text of the Code may be found on the corporate governance section of the Registrant’s website at https://investor.iridium.com/corporate-governance. The information on the Registrant’s website does not constitute part of this Current Report on Form 8-K for any purpose and is not incorporated by reference herein. The adoption of the Code did not relate to or result in any waiver, explicit or implicit, of any provision of the prior code.
