2 Code of Business Conduct


Amec Foster Wheeler is a new company, but we have over
150 years of proud heritage, in which we have carefully built
a reputation for consistently delivering excellence.
Our values encapsulate the behaviours which must be second nature to us as we
focus on delivering on promises, developing full potential and doing the right thing.

We must be 100% committed to acting ethically and with integrity at all times.
It is not a job for others - we are each personally responsible for our own behaviour.
Demonstrating commitment to our values means much more than following a set
of compulsory procedures we must understand their very essence.

We must always act with the highest ethical standards in all of our relationships and
dealings and never accept, or excuse, behaviour which is inconsistent with our values
and Code of Business Conduct.

All who work for us, or under our direction, should adopt
the same behaviours and any suspected or actual
breaches must be reported with confidence in
our Leadership Teams commitment to support
anyone making such reports.

If something doesnt feel right, it probably


isnt, so we must all know what to do if we
are to create a successful and sustainable
business for the long term, trusted by our
customers, our partners and our colleagues.

Delivering excellence,
inspiring trust and loyalty -
and living our values.

Our Code of Business Conduct (Code) is a set of principles to guide us, and

and others acting on our behalf. It is a practical application of our values.
We must consistently deliver excellence to our customers by delivering on
promises, developing full potential and doing the right thing.

countries. Many governments have detailed processes and procedures
for the purchase of goods and services and have regulations covering the
hiring of current or former government officials, offering money or other
benefits to public officials, providing gifts and hospitality to public officials
and other conduct which may impair fair and impartial decisions. As
a result, these matters must always be scrutinised carefully. You should
review the Anti-Bribery and Corruption procedure in the Conex Library
for further guidance.

We must:

u Observe the highest ethical standards when dealing with governments and
current or former government officials.

u Understand that it is our responsibility to know, understand and comply with


applicable social, legal and ethical requirements.

Corruption procedure.

u Offer any gift or hospitality to a public official where it is prohibited by law.


Where gifts and/or hospitality are permitted by law, we must not provide them
unless prior approvals have been given as required by the Anti-Bribery and
Corruption procedure.
