9 Overview on major international Anti-Corruption laws Internationally, anti-corruption laws and universal ethical principles apply. These are generally consistent in their approach: Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) United States 1977 UK Bribery Act 2011 Criminal Law Convention on Corruption Council of Europe 2002 International Anti-Bribery and Competition Law Germany ; 299, 300 StGB Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Convention Covering active bribery of foreign officials in the performance of their official duties in internat. business U.S., Australia, most European countries Germany 1997 National Anti-Bribery Laws Over 100 countries have laws similar to the FCPA. All countries have laws that prohibit local government officials from accepting bribes. The trend is that local laws are quickly catching up with US law. United Nations Convention against Corruption UNCAC 2005 Ratified by >140 countries Restricted Siemens AG All rights reserved. Page 9

10 Our Compliance System Management responsibility is the focus We continuously develop the Compliance System further in order to adapt it to changing requirements according to our global business. Effective preventive measures such as risk management, policies & procedures, training & communication enable systematic misconduct to be avoided Management responsibility Explicit consequences and clear reactions support the prevention of misconduct, for example to punish wrongdoing and to eliminate deficiencies Effective Compliance work requires complete clarification: whistle-blowing channels Tell us and ombudsman, as well as professional and fair investigations Restricted Siemens AG All rights reserved.
