Standards of Business Conduct
EFFECTIVE DATE: DECEMBER 31, 2020

The high quality of the directors, officers, and employees of LightWaterLife is the company’s greatest strength. The resourcefulness, professionalism, and dedication of those directors, officers, and employees make the company competitive in the short term and well-positioned for ongoing success in the long term. LightWaterLife’s directors, officers, and employees are expected to observe the highest standards of integrity in the conduct of the Corporation’s business. The policies in the Standards of Business Conduct are the foundation policies of the Corporation.

Ethics Policy

The policy of LightWaterLife is to comply with all governmental laws, rules, and regulations applicable to its business. Even where the law is permissive, the Corporation chooses the course of highest integrity. Local customs, traditions, and mores differ from place to place, and this must be recognized. But honesty is not subject to criticism in any culture. Shades of dishonesty simply invite demoralizing and reprehensible judgments. A well-founded reputation for scrupulous dealing is itself a priceless corporate asset. The Corporation cares how results are obtained, not just that they are obtained. Directors, officers, and employees should deal fairly with each other and with the Corporation’s suppliers, customers, competitors, and other third parties. The Corporation expects compliance with its standard of integrity throughout the organization and will not tolerate employees who achieve results at the cost of violation of law or who deal unscrupulously. The Corporation’s directors and officers support, and expect the Corporation’s employees to support, any employee who passes up an opportunity or advantage that would sacrifice ethical standards. It is the Corporation’s policy that all transactions will be accurately reflected in its books and records.

Conflicts of Interest Policy

It is the policy of LightWaterLife that directors, officers, and employees are expected to avoid any actual or apparent conflict between their own personal interests and the interests of the Corporation. A conflict of interest can arise when a director, officer, or employee takes actions or has personal interests that may interfere with his or her objective and effective performance of work for the Corporation. For example, directors, officers, and employees are expected to avoid actual or apparent conflict in dealings with suppliers, customers, competitors, and other third parties. Directors, officers, and employees are expected to refrain from taking for themselves opportunities discovered through their use of corporate assets or through their positions with the Corporation. Directors, officers, and employees are expected to refrain from competing with the Corporation.

Corporate Assets Policy

It is the policy of LightWaterLife that directors, officers, and employees are expected to protect the assets of the Corporation and use them efficiently to advance the interests of the Corporation. Those assets include tangible assets and intangible assets, such as confidential information of the Corporation or personal information held by the Corporation. No director, officer, or employee should use or disclose at any time during or subsequent to employment or other service to the Corporation, without proper authority or mandate, personal or confidential information obtained from any source in the course of the Corporation’s business. Examples of confidential information include nonpublic information about the Corporation’s plans, earnings, financial forecasts, business forecasts, discoveries, competitive bids, technologies, and personnel.

Gifts and Entertainment Policy

It is the policy of LightWaterLife to base commercial decisions on commercial criteria. That policy serves the Corporation’s business interests and fosters constructive relationships with organizations and individuals doing business, or seeking to do business, with the Corporation. In many cultures, those constructive relationships may include incidental business gifts and entertainment. Directors, officers, employees, and third parties acting on behalf of the Corporation providing or receiving third party gifts and entertainment in their corporate capacities are expected to exercise good judgment in each case, taking into account pertinent circumstances, including the character of the gift or entertainment, its purpose, its appearance, the positions of the persons providing and receiving the gift or entertainment, the business context, reciprocity, and applicable laws and social norms. Gifts and entertainment must not be intended to create an improper advantage for the Corporation. All expenditures for gifts and entertainment provided by the Corporation must be accurately recorded in the books and records of the Corporation.

Anti-Corruption Policy

It is the policy of LightWaterLife that directors, officers, employees, and third parties acting on its behalf are prohibited from offering or paying, directly or indirectly, any bribe to any employee, official, or agent of any government, commercial entity, or individual in connection with the business or activities of the Corporation. A bribe for purposes of this policy is any money, goods, services, or other thing of value offered or given with the intent to gain any improper advantage for the Corporation. No director, officer, employee, or third party should assume that the Corporation’s interest ever requires otherwise.
