Brain Corporation (“Brain”) is built upon a foundation of strong corporate values and ethical business practices. This Business Partner Code of Conduct (“Code of Conduct”) describes Brain’s expectations of all organizations, including their respective employees, contractors, and subcontractors who have entered into a business or contractual relationship with Brain to provide services, goods, functions, or activities (each a “Business Partner”). Brain and its Business Partners must be committed to the highest standard of ethical conduct when dealing with employees, suppliers, and end customers. This Code of Conduct sets forth the basic requirements that all Business Partners must comply with in order to do business with Brain. Brain reserves the right to reasonably change the requirements of the Code of Conduct, and in such an event, expects the Business Partner to accept such reasonable changes.

Employment with a Business Partner should be an expression of free choice and there may be no forced, bonded, or involuntary labor. Business Partners should allow workers to discontinue employment upon reasonable notice. Business Partners must provide their employees with an environment respectful of their fundamental human rights. Upon hiring, Business Partners should provide employees with a code of conduct in their native language. Employee’s personal documents, such as an ID card or passport, must not be kept by the Business Partner.

Business Partners are expected to treat people with respect, encourage diversity, and foster an inclusive and ethical culture.

During the course of performing business functions, Business Partners may receive access to data that is requiring adherence to specific security standards. If this occurs, the Business Partner will be made aware of the additional obligations required for safe handling of such data.
