Item 5.02. Other Events. Amendments to the Registrants Code of Ethics, or Waiver of Provision of
the Code of Ethics.
On July 29, 2016, the Board of Directors (the Board) of ANSYS, Inc. (the Company) adopted
a revised Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the Code). The Code continues to apply to every employee, independent contractor, subcontractor, temporary employee, channel partner, agent, representative, officer and board member of
the Company and all of its subsidiaries, channel partners, teams and operations throughout the world. The Code was revised to provide an easier to understand approach to ANSYS commitments and standards with respect to ethics and business
conduct, including a new message from each of the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary regarding the Companys ethics and compliance program and standards.
Other changes include (i) enhancing the Companys core six (6) principles for business conduct, (ii) providing practical guidance for
situations where employees may need help with an ethical dilemma, (iii) add a new section on compliance resources and generally improving the visibility of references to Company resources throughout the Code, and (iv) adding a new section regarding
the responsibility of ANSYS personnel to speak up and seek advice regarding compliance and ethics.
The foregoing summary of the revised
Code is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the full text of the Code, as revised, a copy of which is available at www.ansys.com under Investor Relations and then under Corporate Governance and is also
attached hereto as Exhibit 14.1.
