On October 2, 2014, as part of the Company’s review of the policies of CyrusOne Inc. (“CyrusOne”), the Board of Directors of CyrusOne adopted a revised Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code”) that amended, restated, and replaced the prior Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Prior Code”) applicable to CyrusOne and its subsidiaries. The Code applies to all directors, employees and officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The amendments to the Code clarify, update or enhance the descriptions of the standards of conduct that are expected of all directors, officers and employees of CyrusOne and its subsidiaries. The adoption of the Code did not relate to or result in any waiver, explicit or implicit, of any provision of the Prior Code.
The description of the amended Code contained in this report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Code, which is publicly available on the corporate governance page of CyrusOne’s website at http://investor.cyrusone.com/governance.cfm.
