Code of Conduct

Rockwell Automation is against corruption in all forms and all of us must take an active role in ensuring it is not part of our business activities. Our business environment includes both private (for profit) and public (governmental) enterprise and depends heavily on our service and supply network and our channel partners; our anti-corruption efforts apply to the full business environment of Rockwell Automation.

Every country in the world prohibits bribery and other forms of corruption. A growing number of countries have laws that apply to activities outside that country. For example:

• The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act is the U.S. law that prohibits employees or representatives of a U.S. corporation from giving anything of value, directly or indirectly, to an official of a government (or an official of a company that is owned or controlled by a government, a so-called “state-owned” company) in order to obtain or retain business or influence an official act or decision. The FCPA prohibits bribery and restricts gift giving and hospitality everywhere the US company does business. Penalties for violators include fines, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, and – for individuals – imprisonment of more than one year.

• The U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 makes bribery a crime in both private and public transactions. As with the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 applies to the global business activities of any company doing business in the U.K. The U.K. Bribery Acts prohibits bribery and restricts gift giving and hospitality wherever the company does business. Penalties for violators include fines, debarment from European Union public sector contracts, director disqualification, and – for individuals – imprisonment for a maximum of 10 years.

Many countries have laws that restrict gift giving and hospitality in local commerce, in both public and private transactions. To avoid corruption, many public laws and private policies define the value at which a gift becomes a means to improperly influence a decision maker. As an example, purchasing officers of the US government are prohibited by law from accepting any hospitality.

There are many danger signals that should cause someone to seek advice to determine if a proposed transaction is consistent with applicable law. Included among those danger signals are:

• Any transaction involving a payment to a government official or a member of an official’s family

• Agents or representatives requesting unusual commissions for a transaction or suggesting that they must incur unusual expenses

• Proposed transactions involving a business where a government official or a close family member has an interest

Our Anti-Corruption Policy Applies Across the Globe

• We prohibit all forms of bribery, no matter how small the amount given or received

• We reject the idea that our policy should be flexible because of customs in certain countries

We Expect Our Business Partners to Follow These Simple Rules

Competition and Antitrust Law Compliance Reminder

Rockwell Automation’s sponsorship of the annual PartnerNetwork Conference substantially benefits all conference participants and is an important part of Rockwell Automation’s business relationship with its commercial partners and authorized distributors. However, all participants must remember that although all of the organizations participating in this conference participate in Rockwell Automation’s PartnerNetwork, many of you also are actual or potential competitors of one another under the law.

Rockwell Automation is committed to strict compliance with all applicable competition and antitrust laws. These laws are intended to promote free and fair competition and to prevent businesses from engaging in practices that limit or otherwise injure competition, including price fixing, allocation of markets or customers; and boycotts of competitors, suppliers, or customers.

In keeping with this commitment, it is our expectation that all conference participants will not engage in any activity that may constitute or give rise to an actual or perceived violation of competition or antitrust law. Specifically, Rockwell Automation expects that when communicating with actual or potential competitors, conference participants do not use this meeting as an opportunity generally to obtain competitive information from a competitor or to discuss:

• Prices, profits and internal cost information, or participants’ expectations as to their future prices or internal costs;

• Dividing markets by product, customer or geography;

• Limiting the supply of a product or a class of products;

• Excluding competitors from a market; or

• Boycotting or refusing to deal with any competitor, vendor or supplier.

It is the responsibility of each participant to avoid discussing any improper subjects with a competitor and to inform conference organizers immediately if a participant believes that improper subjects are being discussed. This responsibility extends to all conference activities, including the formal conference sessions, informal discussions and social events.

Your cooperation in this regard is expected and appreciated.

Rockwell Automation is committed to strict compliance with all applicable competition and antitrust laws.
