At Ruentex, we uphold the beliefs of people-oriented, integrity and honesty, and customer first, providing “sincere service” to all Ruentex Development customers, committed to becoming “the highest ethical standards in the industry,” and being recognized by the general public with an upright image. To promote the principles and behaviors of ethical business conduct, we have established related codes of conduct for directors, all employees, and procurement staff, reinforcing the overall concept of integrity and self-discipline.
| Establishment of Related Legal Systems | Key Highlights |

Such matters must be handled in accordance with the company’s code of conduct to prevent conflicts of interest. |
| Ruentex Development Whistleblowing Procedures | To protect the company’s reputation, safeguard assets, and prevent corruption, theft, embezzlement, or other illegal or unethical activities that could harm the interests of shareholders, employees, and partners, stakeholders are allowed to report incidents to the company’s audit department. If the report involves directors or senior executives, it can be escalated to the independent directors. |

We commit to complying with international human rights standards such as the “United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights,” “United Nations Global Compact,” and “International Labour Organization Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work,” and extend the policy’s scope of application to employees, customers, suppliers, and partners. The core of the policy includes: providing a safe and healthy work environment, prohibiting discrimination and forced labor, implementing equal employment principles, rejecting corruption and bribery, and striving to listen to and respond to various concerns, in order to implement the human rights principles of respect, protection, and remedy. |
Ruentex Development places great importance on ethical business practices and anti-corruption. To ensure that all employees (including directors, managers, and employees) adhere to principles of integrity and anti-corruption, the company has implemented a “Code of Ethical Business Conduct” and “Operational Procedures and Behavioral Guidelines for Ethical Business Conduct”, which were approved by the Board of Directors. These guidelines clearly stipulate that directors, senior management, employees, or individuals with substantial control must not, in the course of business, directly or indirectly offer, promise, request, or accept any improper benefits, or engage in any other unethical, illegal, or fiduciary duty-violating behavior in order to gain or maintain advantages. The General Manager’s Office is responsible for formulating and overseeing the implementation of ethical business policies and prevention measures. Furthermore, we provide internal and external education and training specifically on integrity management issues. Training content includes courses on insider trading and insider equity-related laws, corporate governance, trade secret internal control regulations, internal control design and audit techniques for preventing false corporate financial reports and corruption and fraud.
Furthermore, to protect the company’s reputation and safeguard its assets, as well as to prevent corruption, theft, embezzlement, or other illegal activities that could harm the interests of shareholders, employees, and partners, the company has established a Whistleblowing Procedure. This procedure outlines the methods for reporting unethical conduct, emphasizing the importance of protecting whistleblowers and providing rewards for whistleblowing. The company has also set up a 0800 service hotline to receive various feedback. Stakeholders can report concerns to the company’s audit department, and if the report involves directors or senior executives, it can be escalated to the independent directors.
