No Bribery of Government Officials

禁止贿赂政府官员
It is forbidden to make, offer or promise any payment or anything of value (directly or indirectly)
to a Government Official when the payment is intended to influence an official act or decision toaward or retain business.
禁止向政府官员支付、提供或许诺任何款项或有价物品（无论以直接或间接方式），以试
图影响政府官员在授予或保留业务时的行为或决策。
“Government Official” shall be broadly interpreted and means:“政府官员”应宽泛解释为包括：(i) any elected or appointed Government official (e.g., a legislator or a member ofa Government ministry); (ii) any employee or individual acting for or on behalf ofa Government Official, agency, or enterprise performing a governmental function,or owned or controlled by, a Government (e.g., a researcher employed by aGovernment university); (iii) any political party officer, candidate for public
office, officer, or employee or individual acting for or on behalf of a political partyor candidate for public office; (iv) any employee or individual acting for or on
behalf of a public international organization; (v) any member of a royal family or
member of the military; and (vi) any individual otherwise categorized as a
Government Official under law.
CST_CN_Form_001

（i）任何推选出的或指派的政府官员（例如，政府部门的立法者或成员）；（ii）任何受雇于或代表政府官员、行使政府职能的或归政府所有或受控
于政府的机构或企业行事的员工或个人（例如公立大学雇用的研究人员）；（iii）任何政党官员、公职候选人、职员或者为政党或公职候选人行事或代表他们的员工或个人；（iv）为国际公共组织行事或代表他们的任何员
工或个人；（v）王室的任何成员或军队成员以及（vi）按照法律被归类为
政府官员的任何个人。
“Government” means all levels and subdivisions of governments (i.e. local, regional, or national
and administrative, legislative, or executive).
“政府”指政府的所有级别机构和分支机构（例如本地、地区或国家级别的政府机构，以及行政、立法或执法机构）。
Because this definition of “Government Official” is so broad, it is quite possible that Business
Partners will interact with a Government Official in the ordinary course of their business on behalfof Company.
由于此“政府官员”定义涉及面非常广，因此业务伙伴很有可能会代表公司就其日常业务运
作与政府官员来往。
For example, bribing government officials in order to seek improper benefits is prohibited in
China. The PRC Civil Servant Law provides that civil servants shall not seek personal gains or
benefits for another person by taking advantage of official position, engage or participate in profitmaking activities, or concurrently hold a post in an enterprise or other profit-making organizations.
If civil servants’ offering or acceptance of bribes constitutes a crime, they shall assume thecorresponding criminal responsibilities in accordance with the PRC Criminal Law. In addition,
the FCPA prohibits making, promising, or authorizing a payment or providing anything of value
to a non-U.S. Government Official to improperly or corruptly influence that official to perform
any governmental act or make a decision to assist a company in obtaining or retaining business,or to otherwise gain an improper advantage. The FCPA also prohibits a company or person fromusing another company or individual to engage in any such activities. As Company is ultimately
controlled by a U.S. company, Company must comply with the FCPA and could be held liable asa result of acts committed by a Business Partner.
例如，在中国贿赂政府官员以谋取不正当利益是被禁止的，《中华人民共和国公务员法》
规定公务员不得利用职务之便为自己或他人谋取私利，或从事或者参与营利性活动，在企业或者其他营利性组织中兼任职务。如果行贿和受贿构成犯罪的，应依据《中华人民共和国刑法》承担相应的刑事责任。此外，FCPA 禁止提供、允诺或批准向非美国政府官员提
供款项或任何有价物品，意在令该公职人员以不恰当或不道德的方式实施或做出协助该公
司获取或保留业务的任何政府行为或决定，或者以其他方式获取不正当利益。FCPA 还禁
CST_CN_Form_001

止公司或个人利用其他公司或个人从事此类活动。由于公司最终控股方为美国公司，公司
必须遵守 FCPA ，并可能因业务伙伴进行的活动而承担责任。
Compliance Principles Governing Interactions with Governments and Government Officials

管理与政府和政府官员来往的合规准则Business Partners must communicate and abide by the following principles with regard to theirinteractions with Governments and Government Officials:
在其与政府和政府官员来往过程中，业务伙伴必须传达并遵守以下原则：•Business Partners, and those acting on their behalf in connection with work for Company,
may not directly or indirectly make, promise, or authorize the making of a corrupt
payment or provide anything of value to any Government Official to induce that
Government Official to perform any governmental act or make a decision to help
Company obtain or retain business (e.g. providing kickbacks to Government Officials
for winning a bid). Business Partners, and those acting on their behalf in connection withwork for Company, may never make a payment or offer any item or benefit to a
Government Official, regardless of value, as an improper incentive for such Government
Official to approve, reimburse, or to otherwise benefit Company’s business activities
improperly.
业务伙伴以及在公司相关业务中代表其的公司或人员不得直接或间接支付、允诺
或批准支付腐败贿赂款项或向任何政府官员提供任何有价物品，以引诱政府官员
执行或做出帮助公司获取或保留业务的相关行为或决定（例如：为赢得招标项目
而向政府官员提供回扣）。业务伙伴以及在公司相关业务中代表其的公司或人员
不得向政府官员支付款项或提供任何物品（无论这些物品是否有价）或好处，将其作为不当奖励，以鼓励该等政府官员批准、补偿或以其他不当方式使公司的业务活动获利。

In conducting their Company-related activities, Business Partners, and those acting
on their behalf in connection with work for Company, must understand and comply
with any local laws, regulations, or operating procedures (including requirements ofGovernment entities such as Government-owned hospitals or research institutions) that
impose limits, restrictions, or disclosure obligations on compensation, financial support,
donations, or gifts that may be provided to Government Officials. If a Business Partneris uncertain as to the meaning or applicability of any identified limits, restrictions, ordisclosure requirements with respect to interactions with Government Officials, that
Business Partner should consult with his or her primary Company contact before
engaging in such interactions.

员必须理解和遵守任何当地法律法规或运作流程（包括政府实体（例如政府所有
的医院或研究机构）的要求），在提供给政府官员的补偿、财政支持、捐款或礼物方面施加限制、约束或公开义务。如果业务伙伴不确定与政府官员来往的含义
以及所适用的任何标明的限制、约束或公开要求，则该业务伙伴应在进行此类来
往前与其公司主要联系人进行咨询。
•

Business Partners, and those acting on their behalf in connection with work for Company,
are not permitted to offer facilitation payments. A “facilitation payment” is a nominal
payment to a Government Official for the purpose of securing or expediting theperformance of a routine, non-discretionary governmental action. Examples offacilitation payments include payments to expedite the processing of licenses, permits,
subsidy or visas for which all paperwork is in order. In the event that a Business Partner,
or someone acting on their behalf in connection with work for Company, receives or
becomes aware of a request or demand for a facilitation payment or bribe in connection
with work for Company, the Business Partner shall report such request or demand
promptly to his or her primary Company contact before taking any further action.
业务伙伴以及在公司相关业务中代表其的公司或人员不得提供疏通费。“疏通费”
是支付给政府官员的少量酬劳，目的是确保和加快例行非自由裁量性质的政府行为。疏通费的示例包括在相关文件完备的情况下，支付疏通费以加快获得执照、
许可、补贴、或签证的过程。在业务伙伴或在公司相关业务中代表其的公司或人
员收到或意识到有人申请或要求与公司业务相关的疏通费或贿赂时，该业务伙伴
应在进行任何进一步行动前立即向其公司主要联系人报告此类申请或要求。

No Commercial Bribery

禁止商业贿赂
Bribery and corruption can also occur in non-Government, business to business relationships.
Most countries have laws which prohibit offering, promising, giving, requesting, receiving,
accepting, or agreeing to accept money or anything of value in exchange for an improper businessadvantage. The PRC Anti-unfair Competition Law provides that a business operator shall not use
assets or other means to bribe any of the following entities or individuals to seek transaction
opportunities or competitive advantages: (1) staff members of transaction counterparties; (2)entities or individuals entrusted by transaction counterparties to handle relevant affairs; or (3) any
other entities or individuals who take advantage of their functional authority or influence to impact
transactions. Examples of prohibited conduct could include, but are not limited to, providing
expensive gifts, lavish hospitality, kickbacks, or investment opportunities in order to improperly
induce the purchase of goods or services. Company colleagues are not permitted to offer, give,
solicit or accept bribes, and we expect our Business Partners, and those acting on their behalf inconnection with work for Company, to abide by the same principles.
CST_CN_Form_001

贪污受贿也可发生在非政府部门的商业对商业关系中。大多数国家/地区颁布有法律，禁止提供、允诺、给予、请求、接收、收受或同意接受金钱或任意有价物品以交换获得不正
当的商业利益。《中华人民共和国反不正当竞争法》规定，“经营者不得采用财物或者其他手段贿赂下列单位或者个人，以谋取交易机会或者竞争优势：（一）交易相对方的工作人员；（二）受交易相对方委托办理相关事务的单位或者个人；（三）利用职权或者影响
力影响交易的单位或者个人。”。 禁止行为示例包括但不限于提供贵重礼物、过度的接待、回扣或投资机会，从而不正当地引发商品或服务的购买行为。公司同事不得提供、给予
、请求或接受贿赂，并且我们期望我们的业务伙伴以及在公司相关业务中代表其的公司或人员也遵守相同的原则。
