Item 5.05 Amendments to Registrant's Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics
On January 13, 2020, LivaNova PLC (the “Company”), with approval from the Board of Directors, published a revised Code of Conduct (the “Code”) which applies to all directors, officers and employees of the Company. The existing code was refreshed to reflect current best practices and create a more functional and all-inclusive document. The adoption of the Code did not relate to or result in any waiver, whether explicit or implicit, of any provision of the existing code.
In addition to conforming the Code to enhance Company personnel’s understanding of the Company’s standards of ethical business practices, the updates include an introduction to the Company’s values; improve clarity as to how to address ethical issues that may arise; guide interactions with patients and healthcare professionals; and provide information surrounding our marketing and promotional practices.
A copy of the new Code is posted on the Company's website at www.livanova.com in the Investor section.
