The Directors and senior management personnel are expected to avoid and disclose any activity or association that creates or appears to create a conflict between the personal interests and the Company’s business interests. A Conflict of interest exists where the interests or benefits of one person or entity conflict with the interests or benefits of the Company.

General guidelines to better understand several of the most common examples of situations that may cause a conflict of interest are listed below.

The Executive Directors and the Senior Management personnel shall devote themselves exclusively to the business of the Company and shall not accept any other work or assignment (part-time or otherwise).

(b). Board Memberships
Acceptance of Directorship on the Boards of other Companies, which compete, with the Company amounts to conflict of interest. Helping the community by serving on Boards of non-profit or welfare organizations is encouraged, and does not require prior approval.
