Political Contributions
The Company’s policy is to comply strictly with all applicable and valid laws and regulations relating to the making of corporate political contributions.
No political contributions for any candidate for Federal office may be made for or on behalf of the Company by any Company employee.Even in those jurisdictions where corporate contributions are legal, no employee is authorized to make any political contribution, including the purchase of tickets to raise political funds and the furnishing of any goods or service,
for or on behalf of the Company unless it has been cleared in accordance with established corporate procedures and has been reviewed and approved by the Company’s outside counsel.Monetary contributions so approved shall be made only by corporate check payable to the candidate or political committee in question.
The Company believes that it is inadvisable to become involved in the internal political affairs of a foreign country. Accordingly, neither the Company nor any of its employees may make a foreign political contribution for or on behalf of the Company.
The United States Foreign Corruption Practice Act of 1977 prohibits United States companies, their stockholders, directors, agents, officers and employees from the payment of or authorization of the giving of anything of value, directly or indirectly, to a foreign official:
* for the purpose of influencing any act or decision of such foreign official; or
* inducing such foreign official to use his influence to assist in obtaining business for or directing business to any person.
A “foreign official” is any person acting in an official capacity on behalf of a foreign government, agency, department or instrumentality, including a foreign national oil company. Also included under the term “foreign official” are foreign political parties and officials thereof or any candidate for foreign political office or a representative thereof.
Under the accounting standards provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a facilitating payment, if required to be made, must be properly recorded in the company’s accounts. Recording of such payments in any way which would conceal their true nature would be a violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act accounting standards. No fictitious invoices, documents, etc. shall be involved in any such transaction. No accounting record or document shall be falsified in any manner which may be obscure or disguise the true nature of the transaction.
All employees of the Company shall refrain from any acts which are prohibited by this law.
The Company encourages its employees at all levels to exercise their rights of citizenship by voting, making personal political contributions if they wish to do so with their own funds, and by being otherwise politically active in support of candidates or parties of the employee’s own personal selection.
Such political activity by the Company’s employees must be engaged in strictly in their individual and private capacities as responsible citizens, and not on behalf of the Company. No Company employee may receive any direct or indirect reimbursement or offsetting refund of any nature with respect to political contributions made by them in any form.
