| Message from our CEO |
|                      | If you’re like me, you want to feel  proud to tell people you work  at CAE. Part of what fuels this pride is knowing that our words, decisions and actions are beyond reproach. This means holding ourselves and each other accountable to the highest standards of integrity, honesty and ethics. It also means having the wisdom and courage to do the right thing.Our world may be increasingly complex, but the values and principles we uphold at CAE are straightforward and timeless. Old-fashioned principles like treating others as you would want   to be treated. Abiding by the law. Competing fairly. And behaving honourably.What we do, and how we do it, matters. It’s at the heart of our reputation. An unethical means never justifies the end, no matter how advantageous the end goal may appear to be for you or CAE.So please read this Code but don’t stop there. Make sure you live  it too! And when something doesn’t quite feel right and you’re still not sure what to do, don’t agonize over it alone. Reach out. Talk to someone. And know that there’ll be no punitive consequences for speaking up.Remember, we are One CAE and, together, we are stronger. Let’s support each other in always adhering to our value of integrity and standing up for what’s right.Because it matters.Marc Parent President and Chief Executive Officer |

| About our Code of Business ConductBecause it matters, we help each other work and live honourably by being role models of ethical decisions and behaviour.Our success rises or falls with our ability to consistently meet the highest standards of ethical behaviour. That’s why integrity is among our corporate values. Acting with integrity, honesty and respect are musts if, as employees, we want to thrive both personally and professionally.This Code of Business Conduct lays out the behaviour we accept and expect from the Board of Directors and all employees of CAE Inc. and our wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries. This includes any individuals seconded to joint-venture companies as well as all agents, representatives, contractors and consultants working on our behalf. That’s why it’s important to select suppliers and partners who share our values.Our Code complements, but doesn’t override, our existing policies and standard practices as well as all laws governing our business activities. It spells out what to do when diverse situations arise that could put our own individual and/or CAE’s ethics and integrity at risk. |

| Who’s in charge of ethics at CAE?We all are.While our Compliance and Human Resources teams manage the Code, each of us is responsible for adhering to it and making sure others do as well. It’s also our duty to speak up when we believe a breach has occurred or is about to occur.Our behaviour strongly influences the way other people act. So if one person does the right thing, others usually follow suit. Employees also take cues from management. That’s why we expect all our executives and managers to be role models of impeccable ethics and integrity. |
| “ When it comes to ethical behaviour, silence is never golden. I urge every employee to speak up when something doesn’t feel right. If we all do this, we’ll be able to continue attracting the best talent, offering industry-leading products and services and earning everyone’s trust. ”Marc Parent President and Chief Executive Officer                                                                                                                                                                                                |

| After filing a report on EthicsPoint, we need to wait up to six business days before returning to the system to see if there are any follow-up questions or requests.Our Compliance and Human Resources departments receive the information and treat it seriously, fairly and in strict confidentiality. They also take prompt action based on what they learn. Significant allegations are cascaded up to the CEO and the Board of Directors’ Governance Committee.Any supervisor who directly or indirectly intimidates or punishes an employee who reports a potential breach of the Code in good faith, is subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal.To learn more, see “Internal Reporting/Whistleblowing” in our Corporate Policies and Procedures. |

| We contact the Compliance team if we’re not sure whether a gift or entertainment could be construed as a bribe in a particular country.We always use sound judgement and the utmost caution when giving or receiving business courtesies. We only use gifts, meals, entertainment, travel and lodging to build relationships and goodwill; never to influence decisions or gain an unfair advantage. We ensure that any courtesy-related expense is reasonable and transparent. A lavish gift or hospitality could easily be interpreted as giving or taking a bribe. We also make sure that we understand the local laws and customs, which can be even stricter than in our native country.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | I received a gift from a customer that I know I can’t accept. What should I do?Politely explain our policy and then give the gift back to the customer. If returning a gift has the potential of harming our business relationship with a customer, your supervisor can approve keeping the gift, which can then be shared with co-workers, used for employee recognition or donated to a charity. |

| Offering or receiving any kind of bribe may cost us our job, a large fine and even jail timeWhether it involves a customer, supplier or anyone else, including another CAE employee, we never offer or take any kind of improper payment to get or keep business or in exchange for favourable treatment. This includes direct or indirect payments to a relative, government official, agent, consultant, business partner or employee of another company.Even in countries where bribes, kickbacks, facilitation payments or commissions are an accepted way of doing business, we refuse to play this game. This means we only work with foreign representatives who are known for their integrity and we immediately report any sign of commercial corruption or bribery.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | May I accept a business meal from a supplier?At CAE, employees may accept the occasional inexpensive meal from suppliers. Before accepting, think about whether or not agreeing to the meal will affect or give the appearance of affecting your impartiality. If you’re in the midst of a negotiation with the supplier, politely decline the invitation. If you’re not sure what to do, speak with your manager. |

| We speak with our supervisor if we think we might have a conflict of interest at work.Conflicts of interest can occur any time our financial interests or personal relationships influence the decisions we make on the job. Examples include working with family members or having a significant investment in a CAE supplier, customer or competitor’s business. It’s crucial to avoid even the appearance of a conflict between our personal interests and those of CAE. That’s why we promptly discuss a potential conflict of interest with our supervisor and, together, find a solution that resolves the situation.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | We just hired an employee who very recently worked for a CAE competitor. May I ask the employee for information about our competitor?Never ask a former employee of one of our competitors to share information, such as trade secrets and other confidential information, that the person is legally bound not to reveal.

We also respect our customers and suppliers’ freedom to conduct business as they see fit.We always make sure that we understand the local competition laws before doing anything that might restrict or hamper fair competition.To learn more about improper payments, courtesies, conflicts of interest and unfair competition, see " Anti-Corruption " in our Corporate Policies and Procedures. | I ran into an old college friend at a trade show who works for one of our competitors. She asked me how business was going. What should I do?Say something general and high level such as “things are going well.” Keep in mind that simply having a conversation with a competitor can appear to be improper. |

| Trading on or 'tipping' inside information to others may cost us our job, a large fine and even jail time.We never use or disclose inside (non-public) information for personal gain or to benefit another person or company. Passing on inside information, or trading in or recommending the purchase or sale of CAE or other company securities based on this information, is both illegal and in violation of our policy.Examples of material inside information include potential acquisitions or divestments, internal financial information, major product developments, winning or losing a significant contract, or any important financing transaction related to CAE, its suppliers and customers.We wait for full public disclosure of this information before sharing it. Information is considered public when it has been officially and broadly disseminated and investors have had sufficient time (usually two business days) to evaluate it.To learn more, see “Insider Trading” in our Corporate Policies and Procedures.                                        | My family and friends often ask me about CAE and whether they should buy stock. I usually tell them what I know about our business and suggest they buy stock. Is this okay?Acting on or sharing inside information or ‘tips’ is strictly prohibited whether or not this non-public information results in someone buying or selling stock or benefitting from it in any way. In such situations, both of you run the risk of being liable for violating securities laws. |

| Our beliefs, assumptions, words and actions impact our coworkers and, ultimately, shape our culture. Each of us has a role to play in making CAE a dignified and harassment-free place for all to work. That’s why we consistently treat each other with respect and vigorously oppose any form of discrimination or harassment.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| Equal opportunityAt CAE, our goal is to be an employer of choice. Through our employment policies and practices, we seek to recruit, develop, reward and retain employees based on merit, ability and performance. Discrimination, intimidation or harassment based on any personal trait is not tolerated. Neither is any political coercion or bullying.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           | Did you know that...CAE defines sexual harassment as any kind of physical contact, remarks, insults, jokes and comments of a sexual nature; unsolicited demands for sexual favours; or any intimidation, reprisal, unjust treatment, denial of promotion or dismissal resulting from a refusal to grant these favours. |
| HarassmentEmpowerment is one of our core values. All forms of violence or harassment, whether physical, sexual or psychological, seek to disempower people and are not tolerated at CAE. We’re committed to ensuring that our employees, consultants, suppliers and customers feel safe, respected and valued.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| Sexual harassmentEvery allegation of sexual harassment is treated with seriousness, sensitivity and confidentiality. If we believe that we’re being sexually harassed at work, Human Resources can guide us on how to proceed.When necessary, CAE calls on the Legal department and outside lawyers to help investigate allegations of human rights violations including harassment of any kind.

| Because it’s so easily tarnished, a company’s public image needs to be carefully preserved. That’s why, unless it’s part of our job, we need permission from Public Affairs and Global Communications before making public statements or speaking to the media on behalf of CAE. And if we’re presenting views that don’t reflect CAE’s position, we need to explain that we’re expressing a personal opinion.To learn more, see “Disclosure” and “Employee Communications and Social Media” in our Corporate Policies and Procedures. |

| People need to be safe to contribute to their full potential. At CAE, ensuring the safety of everyone who steps onto any of our premises is a top priority.We don’t work under the influence of alcohol or controlled drugs, or bring these substances into the workplace or onto customer sites. The same goes for firearms. And if we smoke cigarettes or vaporizers and municipal laws prohibit smoking at work and in public places, we smoke on our break outside the building.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |

That’s why, as a supplier or subcontractor, it’s important to follow all government contract and procurement rules and requirements.                                                                                                 | Who are government officials?Government officials are:•    Any officer or employee of a government or government department, agency or institution, including a government-owned or -controlled state enterprise•    Any officer or employee of a public international organization•    Any person acting in an official capacity or as an agent for or on behalf of any government or public international organization, including any person who holds a legislative, administrative or judicial position•    Members of political parties, party officials and candidates for public office |
| Government inquiriesSometimes a government official will make a request that goes beyond standard practices and procedures. When a government official requests an interview, seeks information or access to a file, or asks a non-routine question, we contact our supervisor who, in turn, consults with the Public Affairs and Global Communications or the Legal department.                                                              |
| Classified government informationIf our security clearance gives us access to classified information, we make sure we comply with all applicable regulations and procedures when handling this information. We never access, accept or keep any classified information unless we have the appropriate clearance and need the information to do our job. Our Security Officer knows which documents are or should be restricted or classified. |

| Protecting our intellectual propertyLike many of our customers and suppliers, we invest heavily to develop intellectual property (IP), including, among other things, patents, designs, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and know-how, whether registered or not. A company’s IP is an extremely valuable business asset and major competitive advantage. Negligent handling of this property can cause irreparable damage to a business’s competitiveness and stakeholder relationships and trust.When hired at CAE, we sign agreements specifying that anything we create within the scope of our work or related to the company’s business belongs to CAE. We diligently protect CAE’s IP by complying with the company’s IP Policy and guidelines, including those relating to branding and open source software, among others.We disclose CAE’s IP only to our coworkers with a need to know for their job, or when we have the proper agreements in place. We protect third-parties’ IP by respecting the terms of all agreements we have with them.

| It’s our responsibility to know the laws and customs of the regions in which we’re operating. This includes each country’s export and import laws and controls.Given that international transactions can be complex, our Export Controls group is there to help us with these dealings. Certain transactions, including those involving defence equipment, services and technical data, may require approval from the Canadian and/or foreign government. Our Export experts can help us determine whether a specific transaction needs these approvals.                                                                                       | For all export control issues, we either check our Global Export Compliancy Policy or the applicable national policy, or speak with our Security Officer. |
| Keeping contracts and records in orderWe ensure that any contract involving CAE is in writing and executed by all parties to it. Only our Legal department can authorize side or comfort letters that aren’t part of the contract.Improper charges on government and customer contracts can result in civil and criminal liability for CAE and any employee involved. The same goes for our financial statements. It’s the responsibility of employees preparing these statements to ensure that all information is accurate and not misleading.To learn more, see “Contracts and Commitments” in our Corporate Policies and Procedures. |
