This statement addresses the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act (2020), the United
Kingdom’s Modern Slavery Act (2015) and the Australian Modern Slavery Act (2018) on issuesof slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labor and human trafficking. This statement sets

BMS’ Commitment
Consistent with our values, we are a strong supporter of human rights globally in ourworkplace, at our facilities, in our external supply chain and in our communities. We do notcondone slavery or human trafficking of any kind and are committed to reducing the risk ofslavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chain.
BMS is a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact and supports the 10 principles set out
in this framework on human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption, specifically theelimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labor. Since 2011, we have submitted ourannual Communication on Progress, which further outlines our commitment to theseprinciples and highlights the many ways we bring them to life through our people and ourpractices in our everyday business.
We also continue to evolve our collaboration with Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT), which
was established in 2019. We promote TAT across our organization through programs like
Trafficking Awareness Month which provide employees with tools and resources for how they
can help prevent human trafficking. Externally, we work with our transportation suppliers toraise awareness through collaborative education sessions on ways in which they can identify
and prevent human trafficking.
BMS participates in the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Initiative (PSCI), a group ofpharmaceutical companies that have established the Principles for Responsible Supply Chain
Management (PSCI principles). The PSCI principles promote responsible business practices,including human rights, labor, and ethics practices, among pharmaceutical suppliers. BMS has
directly and indirectly supported PSCI-sponsored supplier capability-building conferences andauditor training conferences in key regions of the world.

We require all our employees to know and to adhere to our Principles of Integrity. We also
require our contractors, consultants, vendors, and any individuals who do business with BMS
to comply with the 3P Standards.
Supplier Expectations
BMS sets expectations that its suppliers and partners are operating with responsible practices
in their operations, including respecting human rights and labor, and complying with the lawsof the countries in which we do business. In our 3P Standards, which are part of our supplierqualification process, we outline these expectations and include an Acknowledgment ofTerms.
Supply Chain Verification
Supplier due diligence is a critical element in helping to ensure that our suppliers andbusiness partners are upholding the principles that we outline in our Standards of BusinessConduct and Ethics for Third Parties. We work hard to manage and monitor that our suppliersand partners are operating with responsible sourcing practices in their operations. Included
within this expectation is respecting human rights across the value chain and complying withthe laws of the countries in which we do business.

As part of an evolution to elevate and clarify expectations for suppliers, BMS established its
Responsible Sourcing Program (RSP). The program is designed to enable better visibility of our
supply chain through greater monitoring, engagement and enhanced supplier requirements.
RSP leverages EcoVadis to assess and evaluate BMS suppliers on critical risk areas including
labor and human rights. As part of the program, suppliers are required to not engage with,directly or indirectly, individuals or entities identified on any sanctioned or restricted parties
list.
RSP development, program preparation, and ways of working were refined in 2023 and will berolled out to suppliers, beginning in Q1 2024. As part of the program, BMS will leverage tools
to prioritize supplier engagement and assessment, with risk being a key factor. Improvements
to address risk will follow the RSP Guidance Model, which outlines a road for improvementand is centered around a risk-based approach. Suppliers identified to have higher risk
revealed through the RSP may have more due diligence or follow up required.
Training
Regular training and awareness around BMS policies and procedures is an essential element toensure that our employees, contractors and suppliers are upholding the values and principles
that we set forth in our policies and procedures.
We require all our employees to know and to adhere to our Principles of Integrity. We also
expect our contractors, consultants, vendors, and any individuals who do business with BMS tocomply with the Standards of Business Conduct and Ethics for Third Parties.
In addition, our employees have voluntary training opportunities to ensure ongoing awarenessand compliance with our policies and standards.
