Item 5.05 Amendments to Registrant’s Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics.
As part of its periodic review of governance documents, on February 18, 2025, the Board of Trustees of Centerspace (the “Company”) approved and adopted updated and revised versions of the Company’s (i) Code of Conduct (the “Code of Conduct”) and (ii) Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers (the “Financial Code of Ethics”).
The Code of Conduct applies to all employees, officers, and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. The revisions to the Code of Conduct reflect the Company’s commitment to ethical practices and compliance with laws and regulations, and clarify its position on gifts and entertainment and fair dealing.
The Financial Code of Ethics applies to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and certain other senior financial officers. The revisions to the Financial Code of Ethics underscore the importance of reporting violations of the Financial Code and other unethical behavior and clarify the potential consequences for violating the Financial Code of Ethics.
Additionally, the revisions to the Code of Conduct and the Financial Code of Ethics include various clarifying, stylistic, and non-substantive changes. These revisions do not materially alter the responsibilities and obligations outlined in the previous Code of Conduct or Financial Code of Conduct, and they do not imply any waiver of the provisions therein.
Copies of the Code of Conduct and the Financial Code of Ethics, as amended, are attached as Exhibit 14.1 and 14.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The amended Code of Conduct and Financial Code of Ethics will also be available on the Company’s website at ir.centerspacehomes.com under the “Corporate Governance” tab. The contents of the Company’s website are not incorporated by reference in this report. The foregoing description of the amendments to the Code of Conduct and Financial Code of Ethics is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Code of Conduct and Financial Code of Ethics attached as Exhibit 14.1 and 14.2, respectively, which is incorporated herein by reference.
