7. RELATIONS WITH SUPPLIERS, LICENSEES, PARTNERS AND OTHER CONTRACTUAL COUNTERPARTIES

7.2 In particular, Plan B’s evaluation criteria for selecting Suppliers and Licensees also include - in addition to quality and competitiveness - reputation, reliability, professionalism, efficiency and sustainability (environmental and ethical certifications), in order to establish a solid and long-lasting fiduciary relationship.

7.5 In requesting adherence to this Code of Ethics, Plan B expects Suppliers, Licensees, Partners and Other Parties to behave in compliance with the principles that apply to them. Contradictory behavior may be considered a serious breach of the duties of correctness and good faith set out in the contract with Plan B, and this may cause damage to the fiduciary relationship and therefore become a just cause for termination of the contract itself.
7.6 No Recipient of this Code of Ethics may promise or grant money, in-kind gifts, facilitation or any other benefits, in any form, directly or indirectly, to any individual representing any of Plan B’s counterparties (whether they are a director, general manager, manager or employee of a private company, a statutory auditor or liquidator) for the purpose of influencing a decision or in return for them performing actions or concluding business agreements or, in general, to promote or favor Plan B’s interests or cause damage to a competitor. Business gifts and courtesies of modest value are allowed, as long as they are considered fair and reasonable according to local laws, transparent for reasons related to legitimate and socially accepted interests, or of an occasional nature, in order to avoid that their contents or occurrence could lead any independent third party to question the good faith of Human Resources or Plan B. Cash gifts are expressly prohibited. All Human Resources are obliged to ensure that they are duly informed about local practices and to evaluate said practices adequately, taking the interests and reputation of Plan B into consideration. In any event, the practices in use regarding gifts and presents will be duly monitored, evaluated and recorded by Plan B.
