The Ebara Group Anti-Corruption Program
President, Representative Executive Officer,
Toichi Maeda
Ebara Corporation
Since 2012 the Ebara Group's Anti-Corruption Program has been one of the core elements of our CSR activities. It has an important role in the implementation of our business ethics. The Program consists of 3 elements: namely, prohibition of the taking and receiving of bribes, promotion of fair and free competition, and exclusion of any ties with anti-social forces. Today, with the global expansion of the Program, we continue to monitor, evaluate, and adjust ourselves, always keeping the same original commitment against corruption.
As the President and Representative Executive Office of Ebara Corporation, I hereby renew our pledge against corruption.

The Group’s managements and employees will promote fair, faithful, and transparent business activities by complying with all laws and ordinances, as well as relevant internal policies and rules.
2
The Group will not tolerate breach of laws, ordinances, or internal policies and rules by our managements and employees. Infractions will be met with strict consequences.
In the event of a clear incident of corruption, the Group will suspend its business transaction with the offending external party.

Top management will take initiative in implementation of the Anti-Corruption Program by actively disseminating the Program and leading by example.
