WHISTLE BLOWER POLICY

1. Purpose, Scope, and Guiding Principles
The Company would like to know about any breach or potential breach of its business principles, unlawful conduct, financial malpractice, or any act which may be harmful to the public, the environment, or to anyone working for the Company, that may occur despite rigorous compliance of the procedures of the Company. The employees therefore must inform promptly to the Company, if they have any reason to suspect that there has been a breach or potential breach of its business principles or any other misconduct. Reporting such issues will result in their detection and possibly deter any further wrongdoing. This Policy explains how the employees or any other individuals or organizations associated with the Company should report their concerns, the types of issues that are covered by the Policy, and guidance on how individuals can seek assistance when they have a concern. The Company will not allow retaliation against any employee who in good faith seeks advice, raises a concern, or reports misconduct. Responsibility for investigating concerns raised under this Policy rests with the Manager/Head of the concerned Department, who reports to the Audit Committee for this purpose. The Audit Committee has a responsibility to review the Policy and amend it as found necessary from time to time. All concerns raised under the Policy will be monitored to ensure that the Company takes appropriate action to redress any issues.
