The DOMO Code of Conduct

6. COMPETITION DOMO’s passion for success means that we will compete effectively and fairly in the markets in which we operate.

The Competition Law Compliance policy is set out in Schedule 3.

P. 29

Uncompetitive behaviour is bad for our customers, makes us inwardlooking and complacent and is unacceptable to the community at large. DOMO’s passion for success means that we will compete effectively and fairly in the markets in which we operate. Managers are responsible for ensuring that they comply with competition laws in their area of operations and that all relevant employees receive thorough training in this area, with manuals for ongoing reference. Competition compliance programs and manuals will be regularly updated and refreshed. Evidence of an active compliance program will be needed if you and DOMO are required to defend a prosecution by competition authorities. Active compliance requires that you take an interest in competition issues, ask penetrating questions and demonstrate leadership in compliance. Identify the competition areas where your business is most at risk and deal with these in regular training sessions.

All enquiries from competition authorities should be immediately reported to the Chief Legal Officer.

Acquisitions and divestments may give rise to the need for notifications to regulatory bodies and regulatory clearances under competition law. Be aware of the possible requirement to disclose internal and external studies, reports and analyses of transactions and relevant markets (including papers submitted to the DOMO Board) when seeking competition clearances or when subject to investigation by competition authorities. Tell employees about the powers of the competition authorities to make on-the-spot and other investigations, and what to do in these situations.
