CSER ETHICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CODE OF CONDUCT

July 3, 2025

1. INTRODUCTION

FOZ One is committed to respecting human rights, the environment, and ethical business practices. The FOZ One Ethical and Environmental Code of Conduct (“EECOC”) sets out the minimum standards that FOZ One expects its manufacturing operations and all our Business Partners to meet or exceed.

FOZ One has adopted the International Social Compliance Standard & other interested parties’ Code of Conduct as a part of its Supplier Code of Conduct for FOZ One and its suppliers. FOZ One expects all suppliers to operate in alignment with FOZ One’s Supplier Code, which outlines standards for responsible practices in Labor, Health and Safety, Environmental Protection, and Ethics.

In addition to meeting the requirements of the International Social Compliance Standard, this standard also includes expectations specific to FOZ One’s suppliers. The International Social Compliance Standard and Code of Conduct are also outlined in the appendix.

FOZ One must comply with all applicable local, national, and international laws and regulations. Where the obligations in the EECOC impose higher standards than those specified by the relevant laws and regulations, then the obligations in the EECOC will prevail.


2. SCOPE

2.1 This EECOC applies to FOZ One’s manufacturing operations and FOZ One’s Business Partners.

2.2 FOZ One must always comply with this EECOC across all parts of their business operations. FOZ One must ensure that any subcontractors appointed to produce FOZ One products or provide services for FOZ One must comply with the EECOC as if they were a “Business Partner”, and they must also take a proactive approach to ensure that the EECOC’s standards are implemented and maintained within their supply chain.
