Perrigo is subject to many laws and regulations across the globe that govern everything from the way we manufacture our products to the work environment we provide our employees. Our commitment to compliance with these laws and regulations begins with every employee's personal commitment to our core values - Integrity, Respect and Responsibility. These core values empower our employees to do what is right, thereby ensuring we comply with laws, regulations, and internal policies and procedures.

While we believe our core values lay the foundation for our compliance program, we also continue to enhance our compliance program in other ways. Perrigo's Code of Conduct explains these core values and compliance expectations for all employees. While our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has ultimate responsibility for Perrigo's compliance practices, we have also spent the past several years building processes and defining responsibilities to consistently promote compliance at all levels of our global organization.

• Our CEO is assisted by our Compliance and Corporate Values Committee (CCVC). The CCVC is comprised of senior management, including those from many of our global locations, and is responsible for setting the tone and communicating the message of compliance across the organization. According to its charter, the objective of the CCVC is "to promote an organizational culture that encourages ethical conduct and a commitment to compliance with laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company's business operations, at each site, by living out the Company's core values."


• The CCVC is supported by our centralized Global Corporate Compliance Group, which is responsible for overseeing the implementation of our compliance program, identifying areas of risk and performing audits to assess compliance.



• Every Perrigo site has a Compliance and Values Committee led by local Compliance Coordinators. These coordinators serve as the local resource for compliance-related issues, provide a confidential means by which compliance-related issues can be reported without fear of retaliation, ensure local awareness and understanding of compliance initiatives, and assist management in compliance training.



• Perrigo provides an anonymous hotline so that all employees can feel free to speak up if they believe they have witnessed conduct that is not aligned with our core values or find themselves in a situation that challenges that alignment. The hotline is accessible in local languages by phone or internet and is operated by an independent third party.

To assist our employees in meeting their compliance responsibilities and understanding available resources, we provide both online and in-person training. In addition, each year we ask all employees to read our Code of Conduct and certify that they understand how it applies to their daily work activities. We also ask our managers to certify each year that they understand and are in compliance with our Code and Corporate Policies.

Together, our compliance program and resources provide guidelines to help everyone at Perrigo act with integrity, respect and responsibility.
