I. Introduction

At SUBARU, we believe that amid concerns over environmental disruption due toglobal warming, it is the pressing responsibility of a corporation to addressenvironmental issues for the improvement in the course of business activities towardbuilding a sustainable society.
As a specific approach to these issues, SUBARU has established its Environmental
Policy which sets striving for environmental preservation throughout our businessactivities as a group-wide goal.
As part of this, the SUBARU Purchasing Division has established CSR Procurement
as the Fundamental Procurement Policy, and promote the procurement ofenvironmentally-friendly parts, materials, and services from environmentally-conscious
suppliers as our mission, through the business considering the environmental
protection in our corporate social responsibility. In addition to this, we aim to reduce
the environment load in all the stages of product life cycle from the procurement todesign, development, production, transportation, sales, use, disposal, and recycle.
Under these circumstances, we have formulated our medium-term Environment
Action Plan 2030 to achieve resource recycling and carbon neutrality.
As action across the entire supply chain is required to achieve these initiatives,
SUBARU has compiled specific requirements for suppliers on environmental mattersin this document as the SUBARU Green Procurement Guidelines to be extended
across the supply chain. Especially, this revision includes each item in Environment
Action Plan 2030.
It will be appreciated if all suppliers take advantage of the guidelines to extend andpromote environmental action, including among your own suppliers. In this revision,
the environmental BCP response of our business partners have been added.
We hope for your understanding and cooperation in contributing together to therealization of a sustainable society and working for coexistence as “a compellingcompany with strong market presence.”

5. Reduction of CO2 emissions
SUBARU recognizes that climate change is one of the most pressing global issues, andrespects the goal of the Paris Agreement to hold the increase in the global averagetemperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels. SUBARU will contribute to this goalby reducing CO2 emissions from its products, factories and offices to help decarbonize society.
SUBARU has set long-term and medium-term goals as milestones for its target of carbon
neutrality in 2050. To achieve these goals, SUBARU engages in reducing CO2 emissions. In
addition, we initiate for measurement and reduction of CO2 emissions in the entire life cycle(from production to use, disposal, and transportation), complying with Japan Automobile
Manufacturers Association’s policy.
Plants and offices (Scopes 1 and 2)⚫ By FYE2051, achieve carbon neutrality⚫ By FYE2036, reduce CO2 emissions by 60% compared to 2016
Products (Scope 3)⚫ By 2050: Reduce average well-to-wheel CO2 emissions from new vehicles (in operation)sold worldwide by 90% or more compared to 2010 levels.
⚫ By the first half of the 2030s: Apply electrification technologies to all SUBARU vehicles
sold worldwide⚫ In 2030: Aim to make 50% of the SUBARU sales Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV).
We require our suppliers to understand our long-term and mid-term goals, grasp the impact of
their own business activities on energy use and CO2 emissions and make systematic efforts tomeasure and reduce these emissions.

6. Utilization of recycled resource materials
To contribute to realizing a resource recycling society and a decarbonize society, Subaru will
promote the research and development to ensure that more than 25% of the plastic in newmodels (excluding models supplied by OEMs) is derived from recycled materials (material andchemical recycling plastic, etc.) by 2030. In addition, we will proactively adopt plastic materials
that have less environmental impact.
We require our suppliers to cooperate with us to promote resource recycling, including theactive use of recycled resource materials and the management of information on the content
of recycled resource materials.
