Compliance Obligations All GE employees are obligated to comply with the requirements — the “letter”— of the Company’s compliance policies set forth in the Spirit & Letter. These policies implement the GE Code of Conduct and are supplemented by compliance procedures and guidelines adopted by GE components. A summary of some of the key compliance obligations of GE employees follows: IMPROPER PAYMENTS • Always adhere to the highest standards of honesty and integrity in all contacts on behalf of GE. Never offer bribes, kickbacks, illegal political contributions or other improper payments to any customer, government official or third party. Follow the laws of the United States and other countries relating to these matters. • Do not give significant gifts or provide any extravagant entertainment to a customer or supplier without GE management approval. Make sure all business entertainment and gifts are lawful and disclosed to the other party’s employer. • Employ only reputable people and firms as GE representatives and understand and obey any requirements governing the use of third party representatives. INTERNATIONAL TRADE CONTROLS • Understand and follow applicable international trade control and customs laws and regulations, including those relating to licensing, shipping and import documentation and reporting and record retention requirements. • Never participate in boycotts or other restrictive trade practices prohibited or penalized under United States or applicable local laws. • Make sure all transactions are screened in accordance with applicable export/import requirements; and that any apparent conflict between U.S. and applicable local law requirements, such as the laws blocking certain U.S. restrictions adopted by Canada, Mexico and the members of the European Union, is disclosed to GE counsel. MONEY LAUNDERING PREVENTION • Follow all applicable laws that prohibit money laundering and that require the reporting of cash or other suspicious transactions. • Learn to identify warning signs that may indicate money laundering or other illegal activities or violations of GE policies. Raise any concerns to GE counsel and GE management. PRIVACY • Never acquire, use or disclose individual consumer information in ways that are inconsistent with GE privacy policies or with applicable privacy and data protection laws, regulations and treaties. • Maintain secure business records of individual consumer information, including computer-based information. SUPPLIER RELATIONSHIPS • Only do business with suppliers who comply with local and other applicable legal requirements and any additional GE standards relating to labor, environment, health and safety, intellectual property rights and improper payments. • Follow applicable laws and government regulations covering supplier relationships. • Provide a competitive opportunity for suppliers to earn a share of GE’s purchasing volume, including small businesses and businesses owned by the disadvantaged, minorities and women. WORKING WITH GOVERNMENTS • Follow applicable laws and regulations associated with government contracts and transactions. • Require any supplier providing goods or services for GE on a government project or contract to agree to comply with the intent of GE’s Working with Governments policy. • Be truthful and accurate when dealing with government officials and agencies. COMPLYING WITH COMPETITION LAWS • Never propose or enter into any agreement with a GE competitor to fix prices, terms and conditions of sale, costs, profit margins, or other aspects of the competition for sales to third parties. • Do not propose or enter into any agreements or understandings with GE customers restricting resale prices. • Never propose or enter into any agreements or understandings with suppliers which restrict the price or other terms at which GE may resell or lease any product or service to a third party. ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH & SAFETY • Learn how to conduct your activities in compliance with all relevant environmental and worker health and safety laws and regulations and conduct your activities accordingly. • Ensure that all new product designs or changes or services offerings are reviewed for compliance with GE guidelines. • Use care in handling hazardous materials or operating processes or equipment that use hazardous materials to prevent unplanned releases into the workplace or the environment. • Report to GE management all spills of hazardous materials; any concern that GE products are unsafe; and any potential violation of environmental, health or safety laws, regulations or company practices or requests to violate established EHS procedures. FAIR EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES • Extend equal opportunity, fair treatment and a harassment-free work environment to all employees, co-workers, consultants and other business associates without regard to their race, color, religion, national origin, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status or other characteristic protected by law. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST • Financial, business, or other non-work related activities must be lawful and free of conflicts with one’s responsibilities to GE. • Report all personal or family relationships, including those of significant others, with current or prospective suppliers you select, manage or evaluate. • Do not use GE equipment, information or other property (including office equipment, e-mail and computer applications) to conduct personal or non-GE business without prior permission from the appropriate GE manager. CONTROLLERSHIP • Keep and report all GE records, including any time records, in an accurate, timely, complete, and confidential manner. Only release GE records to third parties when authorized by GE. • Follow GE’s General Accounting Procedures (GAP), as well as all generally accepted accounting principles, standards, laws and regulations for accounting and financial reporting of transactions, estimates and forecasts. • Financial statements and reports prepared for or on behalf of GE (including any component) must fairly present the financial position, results of operations, and/or other financial data for the periods and/or the dates specified. XXXXXXX XXXXXXX OR DEALING & STOCK TIPPING • Never buy, sell or suggest to someone else that they should buy or sell stock or other securities of any company (including GE) while you are aware of significant or material non-public information (inside information) about that company. Information is significant or material when it is likely that an ordinary investor would consider the information important in making an investment decision. • Do not pass on or disclose inside information unless necessary for the conduct of GE business — and never pass on or disclose such information if you suspect that the information will be used for an improper trading purpose. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY • Identify and protect commercially significant GE intellectual property in ways consistent with the law. • Consult with GE counsel in advance of soliciting, accepting or using proprietary information of outsiders, disclosing GE proprietary information to outsiders or permitting third parties to use GE intellectual property. • Respect valid patents, copyrighted materials and other protected intellectual property of others; and consult with GE counsel for licenses or approvals to use such intellectual property.
