2. VEDANTA LIMITED CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT

The Vedanta Limited Code of Business Conduct & Ethics (Code of Conduct or Code) contains general guidelines for conducting
the business of the Company, consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. This Code requires a higher standard than required by commercial practice or applicable laws, rules or regulations.

This Code applies to all directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries (which, unless the context otherwise requires, are collectively
referred to in this code as the Company). We refer to all persons covered by this Code, including directors, officers and employees, as Company employees or simply employees. We also refer to our Chief
Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and our principal accounting officers and controllers as our principal financial officers. The Code also covers the Duties of Independent Directors as annexed in Annexure-1 to this Code and as prescribed in Schedule IV to the Companies Act, 2013.

The Code expresses the
principles of our business ethics and is intended to assist all employees in meeting the high standards of personal and professional integrity required of them. Strict adherence to the provisions of this Code is a condition of employment.

The Code is an important part of the Companys Mission & Values, where we highlight principles and standards for our global business conduct.
The Company expects all its employees to uphold the highest standards of ethical behavior and integrity. We believe that ethical and economic values are interdependent and that the business community must always strive to operate within the accepted
norms established by national and international authorities.

The Code guides our behavior and helps us to promote:



| |  |  | Honest and ethical conduct and the ethical handling of conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with or submits to relevant authorities and in other public communications;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Prompt internal reporting to an appropriate person or persons identified in this Code;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Conduct and Behaviour of employees towards women employees. Employees are expected to respect women professionals and employees and not to sexual or otherwise harass them by their conduct. This is covered in detail
under the Sexual Harassment Prohibition Policy of the Company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Accountability for adherence to this Code.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------

High business ethics and integrity by letter and spirit ensures our credibility. The Company demands the
highest standards in carrying out its business activities.

The Company and its employees must conform to the Code. All Company managers should take an
active role in implementation and ensuring that the Code is communicated and kept alive under all circumstances.

The Company and its employees shall
conform to the relevant laws and regulations of the countries in which they operate and fulfill their obligations in a reliable manner. They must insist on honesty and fairness in all aspects of their business and expect the same from their
partners. In any situation not governed by statute or explicit regulations, or where the law is ambiguous or conflicting, the Companys affairs will be conducted in accordance with its high standard of business practice.

Breaches of the law, regulations or the Companys standards are not justified by the pursuit of profit and activities are not made acceptable merely by
the practice of competitors or others in the market. The Company shall also responsibly comply with the business principles guiding its activities and relationships worldwide.

Guidelines



| |  |  | Apply zero tolerance in assuring strict adherence to local and international laws and regulations as well as to the Companys ethical standards.

3. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS

Each employee
has an obligation to comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Companys operations. These include, without limitation, laws covering bribery and kickbacks, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets, information privacy,
insider trading, illegal political contributions, antitrust prohibitions, foreign corrupt practices (including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, see below), offering or receiving gratuities, environmental hazards, employment discrimination or
harassment, occupational health and safety, false or misleading financial information or misuse of corporate assets.

You are expected to understand and
comply with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to your job position. If any doubt exists about whether a course of action is lawful, you should seek advice from your supervisor or the Legal Department.

Human Rights

At Vedanta Limited, upholding peoples
fundamental rights is central in our everyday business operations. At a minimum Vedanta Limited complies with all applicable local, state and national laws regarding human rights and workers rights where the Company does business.

All our businesses are compliant with applicable regulations, strive to uphold all labour rights and are aligned with national and international regulations.
All employees are required to comply with our Human Rights Policy.

Anti-Bribery and Corruption

The Company and its employees shall not offer or provide an undue monetary or other advantage to any person or persons, including public officials,
customers or employees, in violation of laws and the officials legal duties in order to obtain or retain business.



Page 8 of 32

LOGO



Bribery is the offer, promise, giving, demanding or acceptance of an advantage as an inducement for an action
which is illegal, unethical or a breach of trust.

The UK Bribery Act (UKBA) prohibits company and its associated persons from offering,
promising or giving any financial or other advantage to bring about the improper performance by another person of a relevant function or activity, to influence a foreign public official in performance of his or her official functions with an
intention to obtain or retain business or an advantage in the conduct of business. Further, receipt of bribe is also covered by the act and is an offence under it. Stated more concisely the UKBA prohibits payment and receipt of bribes directly or
indirectly through associated person.

A public official includes anyone, whether elected or appointed, who performs public functions in any
branch of national, local or municipal government anywhere in the world. It includes officials holding a legislative, administrative or judicial position of any kind. It also covers a person who exercises a public function, such as professionals
working for public health agencies and officers in state owned enterprises

U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the FCPA) prohibits the company and its employees and agents from offering or giving money or any other item of
value to win or retain business or to influence any act or decision of any governmental official, political party, candidate for political office or official of a public international organization. Stated more concisely, the FCPA prohibits the
payment of bribes, kickback or other inducements to foreign officials.

This prohibition also extends to payments to a sales representative or agent if
there is reason to believe that the payment will be used indirectly for a prohibited payment to foreign officials. Violation of the FCPA is a crime that can result in severe fines and criminal penalties, as well as disciplinary action by the
company, up to and including termination of employment.

Please note that even Facilitation payments i.e. small or minor payments (whether in cash or as
favours or benefits) made to secure or speed up routine legal government actions. Facilitation payments are considered bribes and prohibited under the UK Bribery Act. Therefore prohibited under this Code too.

Therefore it is important for employees to note that the Code prohibits any undue monetary or Facilitation payments, other advantage to any person or persons,
including public officials, customers or employees, any Associated Persons, in violation of laws and the officials legal duties in order to obtain or retain business.

5. COMPLIANCE WITH INSIDER TRADING LAWS

The Company has
an insider trading policy, which may be obtained from the Secretarial / Legal Department. The following is a summary of some of the general principles relevant to insider trading, and should be read in conjunction with the aforementioned specific
policy.

Company employees are prohibited from trading in the shares or other securities of the Company while in possession of material, nonpublic
information about the Company.

In addition, Company employees are prohibited from recommending, tipping or suggesting that anyone else buy or
sell shares or other securities of the Company on the basis of material, nonpublic information.

Company employees who obtain material nonpublic
information about another company in the course of their employment are prohibited from trading in the shares or securities of the other company while in possession of such information or tipping others to trade on the basis of such
information.

Violation of insider trading laws can result in severe fines and criminal prosecution by the SEBI and disciplinary action by the Company, up
to and including termination of employment.

Information is non-public if it has not been made generally available to the public by means of a
press release or other means of widespread distribution. Information is material if a reasonable investor would consider it important in a decision to buy, hold or sell shares or other securities.

As a rule of thumb, any information that would affect the value of shares or other securities should be considered material. Examples of information that is
generally considered material include:



|a) | Financial results or forecasts, or any information that indicates a companys financial results may exceed or fall short of forecasts or expectations;
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|b) | Important new products or services;
|-- | -----------------------------------



|c) | Pending or contemplated acquisitions or dispositions, including mergers, tender offers or joint venture proposals;
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|d) | Possible management changes or changes of control;
|-- | --------------------------------------------------



|e) | Pending or contemplated public or private sales of debt or equity securities;
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



|f) | Acquisition or loss of a significant customer or contract;
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------



Page 12 of 32

LOGO



|g) | Significant write-offs;
|-- | -----------------------



|h) | Initiation or settlement of significant litigation; and
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------



|i) | Changes in the companys auditors or a notification from its auditors that the company may no longer rely on the auditors report.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|j) | Information should be considered non-public if it has not been made generally available to the public for a reasonable period of time. Whenever there is any doubt whether
information concerning a company is material or non-public, do not trade in the securities of such company.
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|k) | Questionable trading by members of your immediate family or by members of your personal household can, additionally, be your responsibility and give rise to legal and Company-imposed sanctions.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The golden rules are:



| |  |  | Maintain strict confidentiality of the information and refrain from dealing in the companys securities for the entire relevant period.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Not discuss or disclose any confidential information to any person under any circumstances since such person may misuse the information to deal in the company shares.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Honor the Silent period as announced by the company every quarter and at other times.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

department.

Our business success depends upon our ability to foster lasting customer relationships. The Company is committed to dealing with customers fairly, honestly and
with integrity.

The Company believes in exercising due care and diligence in establishing business relations with its customers and counter parties.

All employees must adhere to the key principle of customer identification. The identity of every customer must be established from a reliable identifying
source or materials or documents.

Specifically, you should keep the following guidelines in mind when dealing with customers:



| |  |  | Information we supply to customers should be accurate and complete to the best of our knowledge. Employees should not deliberately misrepresent information to customers.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Employees should not refuse to sell, service, or maintain products the Company has produced simply because a customer is buying products from another supplier.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Customer entertainment should not exceed reasonable and customary business practice. Employees should not provide entertainment or other benefits that could be viewed as an inducement to or a reward for, customer
purchase decisions.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Please see Gifts and Entertainment below for additional guidelines in this area.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Relationships
with Suppliers

The Company deals fairly and honestly with its suppliers. This means that our relationships with suppliers are based on price, quality,
service and reputation, among other factors.

The Company has high stakes in the procurement of goods and services. We recognize that we need to manage
this expenditure from social, ethical and environmental perspective by ensuring that our suppliers meet our high standards for responsible behavior. To achieve this aim, social, ethical and environmental considerations will become an integral part
of how we evaluate and select our suppliers. There are two areas of focus for procurement activity:

Ethics

Our procurement processes aims to surface ethical issues. Where serious ethical issues are identified, supplier will be excluded from doing business with us.



Page 19 of 32

LOGO



Environment

Our procurement process will ensure that we take all possible steps to make sure our suppliers do not unnecessarily impact the environment in the way they
produce, consume and dispose of materials.

We aim actively to ensure that due regard is given to each of these issues in every managed procurement by
Vedanta Limited.

Employees dealing with suppliers should carefully guard their objectivity. Specifically, no employee should accept or solicit any
personal benefit from a supplier or potential supplier that might compromise, or appear to compromise, their objective assessment of the suppliers products and prices.

Employees can give or accept promotional items of nominal value or moderately scaled entertainment within the limits of responsible and customary business
practice. Please see Gifts and Entertainment below for additional guidelines in this area.

Relationships with Competitors

The Company is committed to free and open competition in the marketplace. Employees should avoid actions that would be contrary to laws governing competitive
practices in the marketplace, including federal and state antitrust laws.

Such actions include misappropriation and/or misuse of a competitors
confidential information or making false statements about the competitors business and business practices.

The Company and its employees shall
under no circumstances engage in any anti-competitive practices such as illegal fixing of prices, sharing of markets or other actions which prevent, restrict or distort competition in violation of applicable anti-trust laws.

Relationships with stakeholders

9. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

An employees primary employment obligation is to the Company. The Companys employees shall avoid entering into any situation in which their
personal or financial interests may conflict with those of the Company.

General Principles

Business decisions and actions must be based on the best interests of the Company, and must not be motivated by personal considerations or relationships.
Relationships with prospective or existing suppliers, contractors, customers, competitors or regulators must not affect our independent and sound judgment on behalf of the Company.

General guidelines to help employees better understand several of the most common examples of situations that may cause a conflict of interest are listed
below. However, employees are required to disclose to the respective principal financial officers any situation that may be, or appears to be, a conflict of interest. When in doubt, it is best to disclose.

The Company expects from its employees a sound level of allegiance to the Company. This includes adherence to the noncompeting ethics by persons possessing
significant confidential information.

Identifying Potential Conflicts of Interest

A conflict of interest can occur when an employees private interest interferes, or appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company as a whole.

You should avoid any private interest that influences your ability to act in the interests of the Company or that makes it difficult to perform your work
objectively and effectively.

Identifying potential conflicts of interest may not always be clear-cut. The
following situations are examples of conflicts of interest:



| |  |  | Outside Employment. No employee should be employed by, serve as a director of, or receive payments for services to a company that is a material customer, supplier, distributor or competitor of the Company without the
advance approval of the Chairman of the Board (the Chairman) or the Board of Directors (the Board). Any outside activity must be strictly separated from employment by the Company and should not harm the Companys
interests, the business of the Company or job performance at the Company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 21 of 32



---

LOGO



| |  |  | Improper Personal Benefits. No employee should seek or accept any material (as to him or her) payment, personal benefits or favors because of his or her position with the Company which might reasonably be believed to
influence business transactions or which are not within the bounds of customary business hospitality. Please see Gifts and Entertainment below for additional guidelines in this area.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Financial Interests. Employees may not allow their investments to influence, or appear to influence, their independent judgment on behalf of the Company. The appearance of a conflict of interest is most likely to arise
if an employee has an investment in a competitor, supplier, customer or distributor and his decision may have a business impact on this outside party. No employee should have a significant financial interest (ownership or otherwise) in any company
that is a material customer, supplier or competitor of the Company. A significant financial interest means (i) ownership of greater than 1% of the equity of a material customer, supplier or competitor or (ii) an investment in a
material customer, supplier or competitor that represents more than 5% of the total assets of the employee.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Loans or Other Financial Transactions. No employee should obtain loans or guarantees of personal obligations from, or enter into any other personal financial transaction with, any company that is a material customer,
supplier or competitor of the Company. This guideline does not prohibit arms-length transactions with banks, brokerage firms or other financial institutions.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Service on Boards and Committees. No employee should serve on a board of directors or trustees or on a committee of any entity (whether profit or
not-for-profit) whose interests reasonably would be expected to conflict with those of the Company.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Actions of Family Members. The actions of family members outside the workplace may also give rise to the conflicts of interest described above because they may influence an employees objectivity in making
decisions on behalf of the Company.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For purposes of this Code, family members include your spouse or life-partner, brothers,
sisters and parents, in-laws and children whether such relationships are by blood or adoption. Employees may not seek to obtain special treatment from the Company for family members or friends or for
businesses in which family members or friends have an interest.

For purposes of this Code, a company is a material customer if the company
has made payments to the Company in the past year in excess of US$1,000,000 or 2% of the customers gross revenues, whichever is greater.

A company
is a material supplier if the company has received payments from the Company in the past year in excess of US$1,000,000 or 2% of the suppliers gross revenues, whichever is greater.



Page 22 of 32



---

LOGO



A company is a material competitor if the company competes in the Companys line of business
and has annual gross revenues from such line of business in excess of US$1,000,000.

If you are uncertain whether a particular company is a material
customer, supplier or competitor, please contact the Secretarial / Legal Department for assistance.

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest

The Company requires that employees disclose any situations that reasonably would be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. If you suspect
that you have a conflict of interest, or something that others could reasonably perceive as a conflict of interest, you must report it to your supervisor or the Secretarial / Legal Department.

Your supervisor and the Secretarial / Legal Department will work with you to determine whether you have a conflict of interest and, if so, how best to
address it. Although conflicts of interest are not automatically prohibited, they are not desirable and may only be waived as described in Waivers of the Code above.

Senior officers must disclose to the board of directors any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict
of interest.

10. GIFTS AND ENTERTAINMENT

Gifts

Generally it is not acceptable to exchange gifts with business partners/customers and authorities since this may imply influence or the potential to
influence in favour of the employee/Company and compromise objectivity in decision making.

However the Company recognizes that it may be customary to
receive and give nominal gifts to our business partners and colleagues on special occasions like marriages, celebrations etc. as long as such gift is within the norms of the Companys gift policy and is not meant to influence decision
making in any manner. Likewise entertainment incidental to normal course of business that is normal is also permitted.

Individuals should make every
effort to refuse or return gifts having commercial value. Under exceptional circumstances if gifts are to be accepted then the same should be reported to the immediate superior and deposited with the Company Secretary. Perishable gift items may be
distributed in office. Company Secretary should circulate details of such gifts to the Company CEO/ Unit Head on a bi-monthly basis.



|a) | It is prohibited to offer loans, cash or personal cheques, gifts that may be illegal (anything offered to a government official in breach of local or international bribery laws) and gifts of an inappropriate nature. The
test to be applied while giving gifts is whether they could be intended, or even be reasonably interpreted, as a reward or encouragement or inducement for a favor or for preferential treatment. If the answer is yes, the gifts are prohibited.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 23 of 32

LOGO



|b) | Never personally pay for a gift in order to avoid complying with entitys code of conduct
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|c) | Never offer gifts from any entity involved in a bid or tender with entity.
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Entertainment

Bona fide hospitality and promotional, or other business expenditure which seeks to improve the image of a commercial organization, better to present products
and services, or establish cordial relations, is recognized as an established and important part of doing business.

It is your responsibility to use good
judgment in this area. As a general rule, you may give or receive entertainment to or from customers or suppliers only if the entertainment would not be viewed as an inducement to or reward for any particular business decision. Therefore the sums
informed in this regard must be nominal.

Entertainment expenses should be properly accounted for on expense reports.

This policy should be following in letter and spirit.

For
further guidance you should contact the Company Secretary / HR Head.

11. PROTECTION AND USE OF COMPANY ASSETS

Employees should protect the Companys assets and ensure their efficient use for legitimate business purposes only. Theft, carelessness and waste have a
direct impact on the Companys profitability.

The use of Company funds or assets, whether or not for personal gain, for any unlawful or improper
purpose is prohibited.

To ensure the protection and proper use of the Companys assets, each employee should:



| |  |  | Exercise reasonable care to prevent theft, damage or misuse of Company property.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Report the actual or suspected theft, damage or misuse of Company property to a supervisor.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Employees have access to a variety of confidential information while employed at the Company. An employee is required to keep confidential or not to disclose
or use the confidential information belonging to the Company or belonging to a third party which has been received by the Company pursuant to a confidentiality agreement or received by the Company in circumstances where it is clear or evident that
the information is proprietary and confidential.

Furthermore, employees shall comply with the terms of all confidentiality or other agreements relating

Such confidential information must be given up to the Company when the employee leaves the Companys employment.

Confidential information includes all information that is internally generated by the Company concerning the business of the Company. It may also include

all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or, if disclosed, harmful to the Company or its customers.

The following is a non-exclusive list of confidential information:

You should consider all information, from whatever source, to be confidential until it has been made available to the general public for a reasonable period
of time. Employees should not discuss confidential information with anyone outside the Company.

Any questions or concerns regarding whether disclosure of
Company information is legally mandated should be promptly referred to the Legal Department.

An employees obligation to protect confidential
information continues after he or she leaves the Company. Unauthorized disclosure of confidential information could cause competitive harm to the Company or its customers and could result in legal liability to you and the Company.

Safeguarding Confidential Information

Care must be taken
to safeguard confidential information. Accordingly, the following measures should be adhered to:



| |  |  | The Companys employees should conduct their business and social activities so as not to risk inadvertent disclosure of confidential information. For example, when not in use, confidential information should be
secretly stored. Also, review of confidential documents or discussion of confidential subjects in public places (e.g., airplanes, trains, taxis, etc.) should be conducted so as to prevent overhearing or other access by unauthorized persons.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Within the Companys offices, confidential matters should not be discussed within hearing range of visitors or others not working on such matters.

public, regulators and other stakeholders. Every information which is shared, planned or otherwise, about the activities of Vedanta Limited influences the Companys overall image. Managing the communication which reaches the public, especially
the financial and investing community as well as the media, is therefore important. The Company wants to be seen to communicate the right messages at the right times in an integrated, consistent and positive manner.

Accuracy of Company Records

Accurate and reliable
records are crucial to our business. Our records are the basis of our earnings statements, financial reports and other disclosures to the public and guide our business decision-making and strategic planning.

Company records include booking information, payroll, timecards, travel and expense reports, e-mails, accounting and
financial data, measurement and performance records, electronic data files and all other records maintained in the ordinary course of our business.

As a
public company we are subject to various securities laws, regulations and reporting obligations. All Companys business transactions must be fully and fairly recorded in accordance with the Companys accounting principles and other
appropriate requirements. Improper or fraudulent documentation or reporting is contrary to the requirements and the Companys philosophy and Code.

Both applicable law and our policies require the disclosure of accurate and complete information regarding the Companys business, financial condition
and results of operations.

In addition, applicable law requires the Company to maintain proper internal books and records and to devise and maintain an
adequate system of internal accounting controls.

and (2) making any materially false, misleading, or incomplete statement to an accountant in connection with an audit or any public filing with the relevant stock exchanges.

LOGO



These provisions are intended to discourage officers, directors, and other persons with access to the
Companys books and records from taking action that might result in the communication of materially misleading financial information to the investing public.

All Company records must be complete, accurate and reliable in all material respects.

Undisclosed or unrecorded funds, payments or receipts are inconsistent with our business practices and are prohibited.

You are responsible for understanding and complying with our record keeping policy. Inaccurate, incomplete or untimely reporting will not be tolerated and can

LOGO

in our Securities until the information is publicly disclosed.

Prevention of Selective Disclosure

Preventing selective disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable laws and to preserve the reputation and integrity of the Company as well as that of all
persons affiliated with it.

Selective disclosure occurs when any person provides potentially market-moving information to selected persons
before the news is available to the investing public generally.

Selective disclosure is a crime under United States law and the penalties for violating
the law are severe.

The following guidelines have been established to avoid improper selective disclosure.

Every officer, director and employee is required to follow these procedures:



| |  |  | All contact by the Company with investment analysts, the press and/or members of the media shall be made through the Managing Director and CEO, Chief Financial Officer or persons designated by them (collectively, the

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other than the Media Contacts, no officer, director or employee shall provide any information regarding the Company or its business to any investment analyst or member of the press or media.

Introduction:

Antitrust Guidance Notes (Guidance Notes) contains the guidance on the Vedanta Groups (the Group) commitment for antitrust law compliance.
The purpose of these Guidance Notes is to set outthe Groups commitment for compliance with antitrust law and to provide basic guidance to all the Groups employees, wherever located, with regard to antitrust law and to assist them
in complying with it. As the Group is operating in a highly competitive environment where respective antitrust laws play an increasingly important role, the Group, hereby would like to emphasize its objective of integrity and compliance towards
antitrust laws. The Group is committed to the preservation of vigorous, healthy and fair competition and to complying with relevant antitrust legislation.

Antitrust laws guard against anti-competitive agreements and the abuse of dominant power. Non-compliance with
applicable national antitrust laws can have unfavourable consequences for the financial condition, reputation and viability of the group.

The
Groups employees and business partners (e.g. suppliers, consultants, advisers or any other form of service providers) should feel personally responsible for the strict application of the Guidance Notes throughout the Group at all times and in
all countries where the Group operates, especially with the nature and seriousness of the risks likely to result from any infringement to antitrust legislation.

Companies that infringe antitrust law can face significant fines. For instance, the European Commission and Competition Commission of India can impose fines
of up to 10% of the consolidated total turnover of the Group. Companies may be sued for damages by those who can demonstrate that they have sustained losses as a result of anti-competitive practices. Any contractual provision which infringes
antitrust laws is generally void and cannot be enforced in the courts. Moreover, the entire contract could also be invalidated in certain circumstances and jurisdictions. Apart from monetary risk, infringement of antitrust laws is more and more
perceived by the stakeholders as unethical behaviour, which can seriously impact the image and reputation of the group, and also affect its ability to convince that it observes highest standards of corporate governance. The antitrust authorities
have in recent times also held directors, senior management and other officials of companies liable for violating antitrust laws when they found that employees have connived with the company to commit anti-competitive activities.

Considering the high risk involved in non-compliance and high standards of commitment for antitrust compliance as
stated in the Guidance Notes of the Group, compliance with antitrust laws by the Group implies compliance by all employees with highest standard. However the Guidance Note is specifically targeted at those employees who are or may become involved
with antitrust law in the course of their professional duty. It is compulsory for all employees to read and understand the Guidance Notes carefully and ensure to comply fully with antitrust laws. The Guidance Notes are aimed at raising all
employees level of awareness of antitrust rules, but cannot answer all questions. That is why it is suggested to seek advice from the respective Compliance Officer (Compliance Officer) of the Group company (Company),
every time in need of any further information.

Overview of Antitrust laws

Despite a lack of uniformity, especially when it comes to procedural aspects, there is a growing trend towards harmonization of antitrust legislation in all
countries where the market economy and free competition have been adopted as the best model for economic development.

Antitrust law generally is based on
three underlying concepts:



| |  |  | the prohibition of anticompetitive agreements and concerted practices;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the prohibition of abuse of a dominant position or of substantial market power; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | the assessment of acquisitions and joint ventures to prevent the creation of dominant positions or the reduction of competition
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These Guidance Notes provides comprehensive guidance on above-mentioned concepts, however, these are not exhaustive and situations which are not covered herein
under may also arise. Therefore, any doubt should immediately be directed to the respective Compliance Officer of the Company.

1. Anti-Competitive
Agreements

For antitrust law purposes, the term agreement has a very wide meaning and includes all kinds of collusive arrangements and
understandings between two (or more) competitors, written and/or unwritten. Antitrust law prohibits agreements or concerted practices between market players that have as their object or effect to restrict competition. The prohibition of
restrictive agreements must be interpreted widely. The concept of agreement in antitrust law includes formal as well as informal agreements, written and oral agreements, explicit or implicit deals or understandings. The
actual form of the agreement is irrelevant, as soon as there is a meeting of the minds, an agreement exists.

A concerted practice is a form
of coordination between market players which, without having reached the stage where an agreement has been concluded, knowingly substitute practical cooperation between them for the risks of competition. Especially exchanges of confidential
information between competitors are often found to qualify as a concerted practice.

As soon as an agreement has the object of restricting competition,
antitrust law applies. The agreement does not need to be implemented first in order to be prohibited. If an agreement was reached, and the parties would individually decide not to implement the agreement, they could still be fined for their
agreement. The opposite also applies. If the parties intent were not at all aimed at restricting competition, but the agreement would have a restrictive effect of competition, the agreement would equally be prohibited and the companies might
be punished.

Any contact between competitors may give rise to concern from an antitrust law perspective. Antitrust authorities will always be suspicious
about the real intentions for competitors to meet. As a result, all employees should be careful when meeting competitors, also on informal occasions, and wonder whether the purposes for meeting are allowed from an antitrust law perspective. If there
is any doubt about this issue, employee should contact to the respective Compliance Officer of the Company.

1.1 Relationship with Competitors

Any agreement to maintain prices, restrict supply to raise prices, allocate market amongst industry players (whether oral or written) formal or informal is
anti-competitive and all employees must refrain from conniving in any such activities. A brief introduction is given to all these types of agreements for general understanding, any doubt/query regarding these practices must be shared with concerned
Compliance Officer of the Company.

1.1.1 Price fixing

In all antitrust law regimes, it is illegal for competitors to agree, whether directly or indirectly (for example through distributors), the price level at
which their products will be sold to third parties. Agreements or understandings that affect prices indirectly, such as on rebates or discounts, pricing methods, costs and terms of payment, are also considered illegal under antitrust law.

1.1.2 Division of territories/market sharing & allocation of customers

It is illegal under antitrust law for competitors to allocate territories to each other and/or to agree not to compete in such territories. Market sharing or
market division agreements may be either to share markets geographically or in respect of consumers or particular categories of consumers or types of goods or services in any other way. Competitors are not allowed to agree to divide customers
between them in the markets in which they compete, or where they could be expected to compete.

1.1.3 Group boycott

It is illegal for competitors to agree to boycott a particular customer or supplier or class of customers or suppliers. Boycott here means any
concerted action or agreement between two or more competitors not to sell to or buy from a particular customer or supplier, or class thereof. This type of decision can be also taken by a trade association (Trade Association) while adopting an
anti-competitive decision against any particular or class of member or non-member.

Although the Company is free
in general to decide not to do business with a supplier, customer or competitor, these decisions carry antitrust risks when they are made jointly by two or more companies. Employees should avoid the following types of agreements, which may be viewed
as illegal boycotts:



| |  |  | An agreement among competitors not to do business with particular suppliers or customers.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | An agreement among certain competitors not to collaborate or do business with other competitors.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | An agreement to the request of two or more customers, or two or more suppliers, not to do business with competitors of the companies making the request.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A boycott can be based on an absolute refusal to do business with the targeted companies, or on a willingness to do business with them only
on certain conditions. Some agreements of this type can be legal, but employees should not enter or discuss any of these agreements without first consulting the Compliance Officer of the Company.

1.1.4 Limitation of production

Agreements that limit or
control production, supply, markets, technical development investment or provision of services are also considered to be anticompetitive. It is illegal for competing companies to agree to stop production, or to limit this to a certain level, rather
than allowing normal competitive forces to determine their independent production decisions.

1.1.5 Cartelization & Bid rigging

Cartels are agreements among competitors to fix prices, restrict output, and allocate markets, rig bids and so on. All cartels are illegal, whether the
agreement is written or oral, expressly made or implied. Cartels are the most serious form of antitrust violation. Participation in a cartel can lead to severe penalties, including imprisonment of the employees involved.

Agreements or understandings between competitors regarding prices or terms and conditions to be submitted in response to a bid request are generally
prohibited. This includes agreeing not to bid. Generally, there are two common forms of bid-rigging, one in which firms agree to submit common bids and the other where bids are submitted in such a way that
each firm wins an agreed number or value of contacts.

1.1.6 Joint purchasing

Joint purchasing agreements between individual competitors may restrict competition and therefore be prohibited when they limit the parties freedom
and/or prevent other suppliers from supplying them to a substantial extent. Moreover, collective purchasing agreements may lead to a substantial purchasing power, which may be interpreted as a collective dominant position of the joint buyers

1.1.7 Joint commercialisation

Agreements between competitors to jointly sell, distribute or promote their products may raise antitrust law concerns where such agreements limit the
individual participants in their freedom to determine their own commercial policy and to advertise individually.

1.1.8 Exchange of information

In general it is illegal for competing companies to exchange information which may influence the independent determination of their individual
commercial policy, such as information regarding sales quantities, prices, cost structure, discounts and other trading conditions, or information relating to their individual customers and/or suppliers.

1.1.9 Site visits at competitors business

Site visits by
or to competitors run the risk of violating antitrust laws. They should be kept to a minimum and limited to health, safety, environmental and similar operational initiatives and should not result in disclosing or obtaining commercially sensitive
information. If competitor personnel discuss commercially sensitive information or ask questions about commercially sensitive information, bring the conversation to an end and report the incident to Compliance Officer of the Company.

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Allow access to, seek access from or discuss confidential or other unpublished business information (such as prices; surcharges; costs of production or distribution;

| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.2 Relations with
suppliers & distributors

Unlike agreements with competitors, many agreements with customers/suppliers are necessary and entirely appropriate
in the course of day-to-day business. Vertical agreements are agreements between persons at different levels of the production chain such as an agreement between a
manufacturer and a distributor. Any agreement amongst enterprises or persons at different stages or levels of the production chain in different markets, in respect of production, supply, distribution, storage, sale or price of, or trade in goods or
provision of services, including tie-in arrangement, exclusive supply agreement, exclusive distribution agreement, refusal to deal, resale price maintenance, may be an agreement in contravention of antitrust
law if such agreement causes or is likely to cause an appreciable adverse effect on competition in a relevant market.

1.2.1 Tie-in agreement

Tie-in agreements have been defined as including any
agreement requiring a purchaser of goods (called tying product), as a condition of such purchase, to purchase some other goods (called tied product). Generally, employee should not enter into commercial relations conditional upon the acceptance of
unrelated additional services, without proper economic justification.

1.2.2 Exclusive supply agreement

Any agreement restricting in any manner, the purchase from acquiring or otherwise dealing in any good other than those of the seller or any other person may
raise antitrust concerns. Exclusive supply dealing agreements may be anti-competitive if they block or create barriers to entry by not permitting other manufacturers to enter the market.

1.2.3 Exclusive distribution agreement

Any agreement or
limit, restrict or otherwise withhold the output or supply of any goods or allocate any area or market for the disposal or sale of goods may create antitrust law issue fall within the category of exclusive distribution agreements. Normally,
unsolicited/passive sales by exclusive distributor out of their assigned territory should not be prohibited.

1.2.4 Resale price agreements

Resale price of maintenance includes an agreement to sell goods on condition that the prices to be charged on the resale by the purchaser shall be the
prices stipulated by the seller unless it is clearly stated that prices lower than those prices may be charged. The use of threats, intimidation, warnings, monitoring penalties, delay or suspension of deliveries as a means of fixing the resale price
should not adopted.

1.2.5 One-sided agreements

Agreements entered by the Company where it has superior bargaining power and is able to dictate terms that are overwhelmingly
one-sided are considered to be as anti-competitive.

Guidance Note: Dos and Donts with
suppliers & customers

Always



| |  |  | Consider recommending a resale price (it should be unilaterally suggested with no effect of a fixed or minimum price as a result of pressure or incentives).
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Justify the objective purpose of choosing exclusive distribution as your sales method.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sell two products together as a package, only if the customer can also get them separately.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Never



| |  |  | Fix the resale price/ profit margin of a product with your distributor.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Prevent your distributor from reselling your product in a given territory.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Prohibit unsolicited/passive sales by exclusive distributors out of their assigned territory.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Execute exclusive agreements (to buy, sell or limit the territory) of a long duration (to be determined based on local legislation and subject to circumstantial
analysis) when you have a relatively large market share.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Make entering into commercial relations conditional upon the acceptance of unrelated additional services, without justification.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Directly or indirectly attempt to obtain information about competitors, from your customers or suppliers.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Obtain competitors information on their current or future price, profit margins or costs, bids, market share, distribution practices, terms of sales, specific
customers or vendors.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Act in a manner that unfairly favours or benefits one customer over another.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Do not receive from a supplier detailed information about its offer to a competitor of the Company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Require from your customers to purchase one (less desirable) product in order to obtain another (more desirable) product.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Use one-sided clause in the agreements
| | - |  | --------------------------------------

1.3 Behavior at trade associations meetings

Various companies under the Group are members of many trade associations. These associations can be effective in gathering and disseminating appropriate
information as well as in representing the industry to the public, government officials and agencies.

It is perfectly legitimate for employees to
participate in trade associations, such activities are not allowed to go beyond such legitimate purpose and notably should not be used as a forum for illegal collusion between competitors, for example by facilitating price fixing, market and
customer allocation arrangements.

Any decisions of associations of companies which have the object or effect to restrict competition are equally
prohibited. Antitrust authorities are normally suspicious about such official meetings with competitors. In order to deal with those suspicions, Trade Association should have a competition compliance policy which it strictly adheres to.

Guidance Note: Dos and Donts at trade associations meeting

Always



| |  |  | Stay SOLID if discussions stray into risk areas:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | State  that you cannot discuss such matters
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Object  and if meeting is formal, ask for your objection to be minuted
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Leave meeting if discussion continues and if meeting is formal, ask for your departure to be minuted
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Inform the law department of the discussion
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Document the meeting, discussions and your response
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Prior approval should be taken before joining any trade association and before accepting any decision making position in such organization.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An agenda should be circulated well in advance of any meeting and that agenda should not have any anti-competitive issues to be discussed and that agenda is strictly
complied with.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | It is in the public domain;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | It is historic (information older than 1 year  use your discretion); or

2 Abuse of Dominance:

A company has a dominant position
if it enjoys a position of economic strength (and market power) which enables it to prevent effective competition and to behave independently of its competitors, customers, and consumers to an appreciable extent. The position starts to be assessed
taking into account the companys market share. Very large market shares, maintained stable for a long time can be considered as evidence for the existence of a dominant position. In practice, a company is unlikely to be individually dominant
if its market share is below a certain percentage.

However, the criterion for dominance is qualitative rather than quantitative. It is not strictly
concerned with a specific market share in relevant market. However, dominance is presumed by most antitrust authorities where a market share of 50% or more exists on a given relevant market. It is important to keep in mind that, being dominant is
not at all problematic under antitrust law; only the abuse of a dominant position on a given relevant market is prohibited.

2.1 Relevant market under
antitrust law:

A relevant market definition under antitrust law has a product/services and geographical dimension. The relevant product/service market
is understood as a market comprising all those products and/or services which are regarded as interchangeable or substitutable by the consumer, by reason of the products characteristics, their prices and their intended use.



11

LOGO



The relevant geographic market is defined as comprising the area in which the undertakings concerned
are involved in the supply and demand of products or services, in which the conditions of competition are sufficiently homogeneous and which can be distinguished from neighbouring areas because the conditions of competition are appreciably different
in those areas.

The main purpose of market definition is to identify in a systematic way the competitive constraints that the companies involved
face.

2.2 Examples of Abuse of Dominance behaviour

Most of the abusive practices relate to pricing policy of a dominant company.

A dominants companys pricing may neither be excessive, predatory nor discriminatory. Rebates and discounts also can constitute an issue where a
dominant position is reinforced by a particular scheme. Other types of behaviour can also constitute an abuse, for instance tying or bundling (packaged selling of unconnected products) and under specific circumstances, a refusal to supply may also
be abusive.

2.2.1 Excessive pricing

A dominant firm
can abuse its position by charging excessive/unfair prices under antitrust law, when its pricing policy has no reasonable relation to the economic value of the product and this can be determined by a twofold test: (i) the price-cost
margin is excessive and (ii) the price imposed is either unfair in itself or when compared to competing products.

2.2.2 Loyalty rebates

A dominant firm should engage in reduction schemes which enhance loyalty. Discounts may be granted, but they should always be based on efficiency gains and
linked to identifiable cost savings such as on volume. In particular, fidelity rebates, i.e. rebates conditional on the customer purchasing all or a large portion of its requirements from the supplier over a certain period are unlawful. These
rebates restrict the customer from switching to alternative suppliers and as a result, are able to foreclose competing suppliers from the opportunity to make sales to those customers bound.

Target rebates, i.e. rebates that are conditional upon the distributor reaching certain targets, are in most instances unlawful for dominant firms. The same
applies for discount schemes making reference to market share targets or market share minima. Non-written, non-transparent or subjective rebate schemes may be unlawful
under antitrust law.

2.2.3 Predatory Pricing

Predatory pricing refers to a practice of a dominant firm of driving rivals out of business by selling at a price below the cost of production. It is a
commercial strategy by which a dominant firm first lowers its price to a level which will ultimately force its rivals out of the market. When the latter have been successfully expelled, the company can raise the prices again and reap the rewards.

2.2.4 Discrimination in prices or other trading conditions

It is illegal for a company having a dominant position in the relevant market to enforce different prices or other trading conditions upon different customers
in similar situations, or discriminatory licensing conditions, without objective justification.

Differentiation may be permissible if it is justified on
objective grounds. For example, a lower price may be warranted where a distributor performs additional services not provided by other distributors or where larger volumes are purchased.

2.2.5 Refusal to supply

In general, there is no absolute obligation to supply, particularly where it concerns a potential customer with whom there has been no previous trading
relationship. However, under antitrust law a dominant company is required to have some reasonable and fair commercial reason for cutting off or reducing supplies to an existing customer. Objective justifications might include real concerns about the
customers creditworthiness or a shortage of the relevant product.

Guidance Note: Dos and Donts on Abuse of Dominance

Always



| |  |  | Treat similar customers and distributors consistently and without any discrimination and any changes in this policy should have proper economic justification.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ensure that refusal to supply is discussed in advance with the legal department and record the business reasons  justifiable reasons such as concerns about
creditworthiness or shortage of product.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Provide quantity rebates, which reflect cost savings in economies of scale, and are available to all buyers and without any restriction on buyers choice of
supplier.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Never



| |  |  | Grant discounts rebates or fidelity bonuses only after consulting with Business Owner/Compliance officer.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Pricing should not give a false impression of excessive or predation in market.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Unreasonably and without any commercial reason cut off or reduce supplies to an existing customer/supplier.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Agree to refuse to deal based on discussions or agreements with competitors.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Do not apply different discounts / rebates for different customers unless it is economically justifiable.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Grant loyalty rebates or discounts which have the effect of tying a customer to a supplier or any rebates which are based on the percentage of its requirements
purchased by a customer.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. Language used in internal document and outside

Even if a company is in full compliance with antitrust laws, its oral and written communications may still suggest otherwise. In reality, that perfectly legal
behaviour can become suspect, simply because of a poor choice of words. Discussing the legality of certain behaviour in writing is inadvisable for the same reasons; while the author may be wrong in suggesting that certain behaviour may not be
allowed, it nevertheless raises the attention of the antitrust authority. Be careful with the language you choose in your documents and outside commination. If your text could be misinterpreted, give more contexts and/or use clearer language.
Consider how documents could be read by other employees, competitors and antitrust law authorities.

3.1 Red flag words/phrases

The following are examples of terms and phrases which should be avoided in any communication, correspondence or agreement relating to Vedanta groups
activities as they could create an unwarranted inference of anticompetitive behaviour or intent:





Dominant/dominate the market  

Fix prices/control prices  

Prevent imports  

Reserve a market  

Share the market/coordinate prices  

Smash/crush the competition




A right margin  

Control/stabilize the market  

Divide/partition the market  

Reasonable competition; no cowboys  

Drive out of the market  

Eradicate competition

4. Regulatory Approvals by Antitrust
Authorities in case of M & A

Acquisitions of assets or equity from another company may violate the antitrust laws if the effect of the
acquisition could impair competition. Parties to transactions that meet certain financial thresholds, regardless of the deals effect on competition, must give prior notice to respective antitrust authority.

To ensure the Companys compliance with this notice requirement, employees must consult to the respective Compliance Officer of the Company, before
reaching an agreement on a transaction that would result in the acquisition by the Company (or by any affiliate) of either assets, equity or a combination.

The failure to file a required notice with the antitrust agencies can have serious consequences. The parties can be:



| |  |  | Fined per day for each day that they proceed without filing.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Required to undo their transaction.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | Forced to delay closing until they have made a filing and the specified waiting period has expired.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The companys corporate transaction must also avoid gun jumping (that is, taking substantial steps to coordinate or integrate their
activities before the required waiting period has expired). Standard contractual provisions that require a target to preserve its assets and operations until closing usually raise no issues. However, when the acquiring party exercises significant
influence over the management of the target, or where the parties coordinate their business activities, the antitrust authority may conclude that the parties are enjoying the benefits of their transaction prematurely and seek to impose fines.

4.1 Non-compete clauses

Non-compete clauses are justified, if such provisions:



| |  |  | are for limited time periods, when the transfer of the business includes the transfer of customer loyalty in the form of both goodwill and know-how and up to two years, when only
goodwill is transferred;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have a clearly prescribed limited geographic scope;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | remain limited to products forming the economic activity of the business transferred; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | do not extend to a prohibition of holding shares purely for financial investment purposesthe investments can be limited, where the shareholding, directly or indirectly, leads to any management functions or any
material influence in the competing company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Guidance Note: Dos and Donts on M&A

Always



| |  |  | Submit Merger filings before the regulatory antitrust authorities (where required)
