1 An Introduction to Our Firm
2 London Brussels Paris Cologne Frankfurt New York Washington, D.C. Milan Rome São Paulo Buenos Aires
3 Moscow Beijing Seoul Abu Dhabi Hong Kong In 1946, six distinguished lawyers had the vision to regard the law as a global profession and the courage to create a firm dedicated to the concept that legal excellence can be achieved only when lawyers in a firm cooperate in their practice rather than compete. In so doing, the founders of Cleary Gottlieb created an environment where collegiality, trust and respect are the guiding principles under which we work all over the world today.

6 OUR CULTURE When I was interviewing, there were a number of firms that did great work for high profile clients, but I had a gut feeling that Cleary seemed like a better fit for me in terms of the people and the culture. Working in a collaborative environment with extremely smart and talented people with diverse backgrounds and outside interests makes all the difference in the world in terms of your day-to-day happy quotient and long-term career satisfaction. Chantal Kordula Partner New York City 6
7 90% of our current partners joined the firm as associates 1/3 of our partners have served in two or more of the firm s offices Diversity and inclusion are core Cleary values. The combination of our differences and different perspectives makes us stronger lawyers and makes Cleary a truly special place to work. Elaine Ewing Partner Washington, D.C. An Introduction to Our Firm 7
8 EXCELLENCE Everything we do is ultimately focused on delivering first-rate services to our clients, who come to us for their most demanding matters. Job No. 1 is to get it right. Steve Wilner Partner You re dealing with extremely talented people at Cleary. They also understand the practical realities that clients face and are able to respond to questions with those in mind. Chambers USA,
9 A Focus on Excellence Clients trust us to handle their most challenging assignments, whether large corporate transactions, bet-the-company litigation matters or cases of first impression. Our work is rarely easy, but we believe you will find it interesting and rewarding. Our lawyers say that what attracted them to Cleary Gottlieb is the opportunity to work on high-profile cases and transactions where the stakes are the highest and where their talents can make a difference in the outcome of a case or completion of a deal. Cleary is consistently spotlighted in Law360 s annual Global 20 survey, which is a ranking of law firms with the greatest global reach and expertise. The firm has been on the list every year since 2011, when the survey was first conducted. Cleary ranks at or near the top of every list measuring law firm success, including Vault, Chambers, The American Lawyer and its Diversity Scorecard, and the Financial Times U.S. Innovative Lawyers report. An Introduction to Our Firm 9
10 MENTORING I ve been fortunate to have very good mentors. It s not that I worked with them every day, but they would talk to me, give me guidance and, more generally, I would be able to talk with them as issues came up, and I found that very helpful. Robin Bergen Partner Cleary s lockstep compensation model is based purely on seniority at all levels. We feel this reinforces a culture in which teamwork and the interests of our clients are prioritized. An absence of competition and an environment of collaboration promote enthusiasm for the training and development of colleagues and the respect of each lawyer s contributions. 10
11 Senior Guidance You will receive more than a handshake and an orientation package when you arrive at Cleary Gottlieb. You will start a relationship with an assigned mentor, an experienced lawyer who can guide you through professional and personal life at the firm. Even more important, though, is the day-to-day mentoring you ll receive working with senior lawyers, advising clients and participating in firm life. And when you choose the practice that will become your specialty, you ll have additional opportunities to connect with mentors. Lawyers working in the same group take the time to help each other in meetings, at lunch, in the hallways. Our approach to mentoring is one that comes full circle. We guide your career ahead and, in turn, eventually you will help new associates advance their careers. An Introduction to Our Firm 11
12 GLOBAL REACH Cleary Gottlieb has been a global firm since the very beginning, and we understand the value of this for our clients and our culture. We take opening an office seriously and understand the commitment it represents to a region. When you walk into any of Cleary Gottlieb s 16 offices, you immediately sense that it is part of one integrated firm. Francesca Odell Partner In each of our offices and across each practice area, our lawyers represent clients on matters that set precedents and defined standards and we ve been recognized for our work: 280 practice and lawyer rankings earned in the 2016 edition of Chambers Global; 61 of these rankings were top tier 12
13 A Pioneer in Globalizing the Legal Profession We opened an office in Paris in 1949 three years after the firm was founded in New York and Washington, D.C. Over 70 years later, about half of our lawyers work outside the United States. While that figure punctuates the point that we truly are an international firm, it tells only part of our story. We are proud of the way we build our presence abroad. The offices we open in new locations are staffed with homegrown Cleary Gottlieb lawyers, which preserves our culture. Equally important, we bring the talents of lawyers across the firm to bear on issues facing local clients. We ve routinely received matter of the year and individual lawyer awards from a range of publications, including The American Lawyer, The Asian Lawyer, Asian Legal Business, China Business Law Journal, Euromoney, India Business Law Journal, Institute of Competition Law, International Financial Law Review, Intern ational Tax Review, LatinFinance, Latin Lawyer, Law360, LegalCommunity, Project Finance and Turnarounds & Workouts.

14 DIVERSITY & INCLUSION Cleary s lawyers have an expansive range of backgrounds and experiences, which greatly enhances our firm community and enables us to provide high-quality counsel to meet our clients needs. Breon Peace Partner Affinity Groups for Cleary lawyers are supported by the Committee on Diversity and Inclusion: Black Affinity Group East Asian Affinity Group Hispanic/Latino Affinity Group LGBT Affinity Group South East Asian South Asian Middle Eastern Affinity Group (SESAME) 14
15 49% of our U.S.-based associates are women 34% of attorneys in U.S. offices are from diverse backgrounds A Vibrant and Engaging Community What do diversity and inclusion mean at Cleary Gottlieb? Simply put, you will feel like you are part of the firm from the day you arrive, ready to seize opportunities that will enrich your career. A key reason: our Committee on Diversity and Inclusion (CDI), Committee on Retention and Promotion of Women (CRPW), and the Women s Working Group (WWG) promote open exchanges about diversity and inclusion matters and drive changes at the firm. Our committees agendas cover a wide and visible set of initiatives that range from mentoring programs and professional development, to speaker series and workshops. In short, you will find Cleary a compelling place to work and diverse in the broadest sense of the word. DIVERSITY LAW FIRM OF THE YEAR Asian American Bar Association of New York, 2016 TOP 10 LAW FIRM The American Lawyer s Diversity Scorecard, 2016 TOP 25 LAW FIRM FOR MINORITIES The Vault s Best Law Firms for Diversity, % CORPORATE EQUALITY INDEX Human Rights Campaign, 2015 We also pride ourselves on having more than 45 female partners and counsel, with the first woman elected to partnership in There is an overall focus on creating an atmosphere of inclusiveness through a diverse workforce, and more than 65 languages are spoken by our lawyers around the world. An Introduction to Our Firm 15
16 PRO BONO Our pro bono practice is very much driven by associates. For example, we took on many asylum cases because a group of associates here decided that they found this kind of work important and interesting. Jennifer Kroman Director of Pro Bono Practice In 2015: 90% of our summer associates worked on pro bono matters in addition to their client-related and other assignments 63K+ hours were dedicated to pro bono and public service in our U.S. offices 500+ pro bono clients were served worldwide 145+ of these were new clients 16
17 All of our summer associates are given the opportunity to participate in pro bono work Public Service & Community Involvement Cleary Gottlieb s pro bono practice matches the needs of the community with our lawyers skills and interests.

18 DEVELOPMENT At Cleary, I have been able to develop my workflow both through formal staffing channels and the relationships I ve built. I have always known who to turn to if I wanted work in a particular practice area or with a particular partner. Kimberly Spoerri Associate You will learn a great deal by doing Cleary gives responsibility as early as you can handle it. On almost any day of the week, you can go to a lunch seminar on different topics, which run from the fundamental to the intricate. And our Cleary Core Curriculum helps you transition from being a law student to a practicing lawyer. Mary Watson Director of Professional Development 18
19 Professional Development and Training We provide training so you can integrate quickly and take responsibility in client matters early in your career. How does Cleary help you rapidly transition from law school to an actual practice? All Cleary lawyers spend their first two weeks in our minimba course, which covers the basics of Wall Street, finance, accounting and other topics usually found in an MBA course. Our goal is to ensure your functional literacy in the business and financial topics you will encounter in practice. We ve also invested in a fulltime finance trainer, who will help you build on this knowledge base throughout your career through our continuing ClearyMBA business and financial training. First-year associates have access to training covering all of our practice areas. There are classes covering the basics of M&A, bankruptcy, fund formation, capital markets, tax, depositions, discovery, motion practice and securities. Throughout, we emphasize practical tips and teach the law in practical business contexts. The Cleary Core Curriculum helps associates develop the practical skills of a successful lawyer. We offer a structured curriculum aimed at developing skills such as communication, negotiation, project management, business development, effective delegation, giving feedback and more. The courses are taught by external teachers and Cleary lawyers in small-group and interactive formats. Other training series include our Litigation Academy and Corporate College. A rich in-house CLE program is offered throughout the year, with comprehensive courses at all levels in all practices areas. Many of the courses are available online for easy reference. In addition to our formal training program, you will learn a great deal by doing. As you gain experience and become a more senior associate, you ll learn to make sound judgment calls for clients, participate in business and client development and you ll build your confidence and creativity.
