Introduction

CODE OF CONDUCT

Northern Pictures is committed to the highest standards of integrity, ethics, professionalism and
achievement.

This Code of Conduct sets out our expectations of each other and the people retained to act on our behalf. It
may change or be supplemented with other Codes of Conduct and Policies from time to time. You will be
notified of any such changes and additional Codes and Policies.

Honesty, Integrity and Professionalism

Everything we do is done honestly, with integrity and to the highest standards of professionalism and
performance.

A Safe, Respectful, Inclusive Workplace

We show courtesy and respect for colleagues and the people with whom we do business. We want all
Northern Pictures people to have a voice in the work they do and not to be afraid of expressing their ideas.
We comply with Northern Pictures’ Workplace Discrimination, Harassment, Sexual Harassment and Bullying
Policy and Code of Practice.

Legal and Financial Compliance

We make sure we know and comply with laws and regulations that apply to us, everywhere we do business.
We prepare our business records and financial reports with integrity and honesty, whether they are externally
reported or used internally to oversee the Northern Pictures’ operations. We report concerns about financial,
accounting, and auditing matters, as well as issues regarding business records, through the appropriate
Northern Pictures channels.

Ethical Business Practices

We try to do business with suppliers, third parties, and business partners that enhance our level of service
and provide products and services of quality. We seek suppliers who share our commitments to human
rights (including labor rights), diversity, and ethical and sustainable business practices.

The following activities are inherently unethical and most likely illegal. We do not engage in them.

• Undisclosed Conflicts of Interest


In our work, we don’t put personal gain ahead of Northern Pictures’ interests or engage in activities
through which we benefit, or might appear to benefit, to Northern Pictures’ detriment. For example,
we do not have secret interests in suppliers or customers, take commissions on Northern Pictures
transactions or accept personal gifts in return for business from Northern Pictures.
• Bribery and Corruption
We follow ethical business practices throughout the world in our dealings with public officials, other
companies and private citizens. We do not seek to influence them, directly, indirectly, or through a
third party, through the payment of bribes or kickbacks or any other unethical payment. We do not
offer, promise or give anything of value to any person if the purpose is to improperly influence the
recipient to take or fail to take action that would give Northern Pictures a commercial benefit or
advantage. We strive to avoid even the appearance of improper influence.
• Protection of Northern Pictures Assets and Information

Northern Pictures’ success depends on how we develop and use its assets. We are personally
responsible for the proper use and protection of Northern Pictures assets and information in our
care, including our buildings and equipment, our ideas, our proprietary information and records and
the Northern Pictures brands themselves.

NP – Code of Conduct 1 [Doc Date 3 Mar 21]

5 | Page
Responsible Communication

Our communications on behalf of Northern Pictures and when we are using Northern Pictures systems
should be professional, respectful and appropriate. Outside Northern Pictures, we do not discuss Northern
Pictures or disclose information about its people or activities that may damage Northern Pictures’ reputation
or the reputation of a colleague or another person with whom we do business. Only authorized people at
Northern Pictures may speak with the media or comment publicly on its behalf.

Reporting Rights and Responsibilities

We report when we observe a violation, or what reasonably appears to be a violation, of the law, this Code,
or Northern Pictures policies and guidelines. We use these reporting rights responsibly, without intending to
harass others or to report trivial matters. We do not knowingly and willfully make false, fictitious statements
or representations.

We can raise questions or concerns or make a report to others at Northern Pictures (to our supervisors, the
Managing Director, the Legal Department or any Director of Northern Pictures). We will willingly assist in any
investigation by Northern Pictures into the breach of this Code.

No Retaliation

Northern Pictures does not tolerate retaliation against those who report suspected violations. Retaliation
must be reported immediately so that Northern Pictures can investigate promptly and take appropriate
action.

Commitment to this Code and Other Codes and Policies

We respect this Code and any other Codes of Conduct and Polices that Northern Pictures adopts from time
to time and apply them to all our work.

I agree to abide by this Code of Conduct.

PRIVACY STATEMENT
The ATO does not collect this information; we provide this form as a means for employees to identify and provide necessary
information to their employer. An employer is authorised to collect an employee’s TFN under the Superannuation Industry
(Supervision) Act 1993. It is not an offence for an employee not to quote their TFN. However, quoting a TFN reduces the risk
of administrative errors and if the employee does not quote their TFN their contributions may be taxed at a higher rate.
An employee can get more details regarding their privacy rights by contacting their superannuation fund.
