THE FOREGOING RESTRICTION DOES NOT APPLY TO A TRANSACTION THAT IS PART OF AN EDUCATIONAL OR CHARITABLE PROGRAM OF THIS CORPORATION IF IT (A) IS APPROVED OR AUTHORIZED BY THE CORPORATION IN GOOD FAITH AND WITHOUT UNJUSTIFIED FAVORITISM AND (B) RESULTS IN A BENEFIT TO ONE OR MORE DIRECTORS OF THEIR FAMILIES BECAUSE THEY ARE IN THE CLASS OF PERSON INTENDED TO BE BENEFITED BY THE EDUCATIONAL OR CHARITABLE PROGRAM OF THIS CORPORATION. PLC EMPLOYEES ARE EXPECTED TO DEVOTE THEIR BEST EFFORTS AND ATTENTION TO THE FULL-TIME PERFORMANCE OF THEIR JOBS. EMPLOYEES ARE EXPECTED TO USE GOOD JUDGMENT, TO ADHERE TO HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS, AND TO AVOID SITUATIONS THAT CREATE AN ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST BETWEEN THE EMPLOYEE'S PERSONAL INTERESTS AND THE INTERESTS OF PLC. A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS WHEN THE EMPLOYEE'S LOYALTIES OR ACTIONS ARE DIVIDED BETWEEN PLC'S INTERESTS AND THOSE OF ANOTHER, SUCH AS A COMPETITOR, SUPPLIER, OR CLIENTS. BOTH THE FACT AND THE APPEARANCE OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST SHOULD BE AVOIDED. EMPLOYEES UNSURE AS TO WHETHER A CERTAIN TRANSACTION, ACTIVITY OR RELATIONSHIP CONSTITUTES A CONFLICT OF INTEREST SHOULD DISCUSS IT WITH THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. SOME EXAMPLES OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 1. ENGAGING IN SELF-EMPLOYMENT IN COMPETITION WITH PLC; 2. USING PLC INFORMATION FOR PERSONAL GAIN; 3. ACCEPTING SUBSTANTIAL PERSONAL GIFTS FROM CLIENTS OR VOLUNTEER ATTORNEYS; OR 4. USING PLC ASSETS OR LABOR FOR PERSONAL USE. AN EMPLOYEE MAY ENGAGE IN OUTSIDE EMPLOYMENT, PROVIDED THAT SUCH EMPLOYMENT DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE EMPLOYEE'S PERFORMANCE OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES AT PLC. PLC LEGAL STAFF MAY NOT OFFER LEGAL SERVICES OUTSIDE OF THEIR PLC RESPONSIBILITIES WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
