Corelle Brands Acquisition Holdings Inc. and its shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Corelle Brands”) fully intend to conduct their businesses in a socially responsible manner and in compliance with all applicable laws. We have adopted the Corelle Brands Code of Conduct for our employees to reflect our commitment to the highest standards of ethical business conduct. We expect that our business partners that manufacture products or supply materials or services for Corelle Brands (“Suppliers”) will do the same, and this Supplier Code of Conduct (“Code”) sets forth the standard of conduct by which Corelle Brands requires our Suppliers and their contractors and subcontractors (“Suppliers”) to operate. This Code may be amended to reflect subsequently developed standards either by Corelle Brands or a governmental, human rights or non-governmental organization who code Corelle Brands chooses to adopt.

Purpose.

This Code is to inform Corelle Brands’ Suppliers of our expectations and requirements regarding socially responsible, ethical and compliant operations that are required for the purpose of doing business with us. Corelle Brands will conduct periodic and unannounced audits on our Suppliers to ensure that all Suppliers and facilities that produce materials and products for Corelle Brands meet requirements of this Code.

Scope.

Each Supplier is subject to this Code. Additionally, subcontractors that produce partial assembly, piece goods or component parts where there is an identifiable Corelle Brands proprietary trademark/name are also subject to the requirements of this Code.

Policy.

Corelle Brands is committed to protecting the working rights and safety of the people who supply products, materials and services for Corelle Brands, while recognizing and respecting the cultural and legal differences found throughout the world. Corelle Brands will only do business with Suppliers who adhere to this Code. Corelle Brands will review whether any Supplier has violated this Code. If a violation has occurred, Corelle Brands will consult with the Supplier and determine the appropriate measures to be taken. The remedy will, at a minimum, include requiring the Supplier to take all steps necessary to correct such violations. If consultation and agreed upon measures fail to adequately resolve the violations within a specified time period, Corelle Brands and the Supplier will implement a corrective action plan on terms acceptable to Corelle Brands. Corelle Brands reserves the right to terminate its relationship with any Supplier that continues to conduct its business in violation of the corrective action plan, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Supplier agreement.

Suppliers are expected to self-monitor their compliance with this Code. Suppliers are strongly encouraged to implement training and monitoring processes to ensure that the requirements of this Code can be met in a consistent manner.

The audit will cease immediately and Corelle Brands will conduct an investigation to determine the severity and to ensure compliance.
