[373] We are establishing levers for audits through clauses in contracts and engaging with high risk agents identified via our compliance due diligence process
[373] Page 5 of 5 Our Future Tolls Anti-Modern Slavery Program, and this statement, are a result of consultation and collaboration between many areas within Toll
[3584] We strive to continually improve our processes of due diligence and expand our screening of risks
[3584] For the monitoring in (re-)insurance business and investment, we use renowned external ESG databases to subject sensitive projects to a comprehensive review (also particularly with regard to human rights criteria)
[3584] The active tender pro- cess of GLISE is periodically reviewed at contract renewal, where a suppliers ethics and risk of modern slavery and human trafficking offences are part of GLISEs overall consideration to conduct business
[3584] The review of the Corporate Responsibility clause in Munich Res procurement contracts and the contractually guaranteed possibility of termination in the event of violations is carried out by our Compliance Depart- ment
[3584] If a violation of human rights is reported, or we learn of it by any other means, the Munich Re compliance units responsible will look into the violation
[3584] An investigation is launched, which follows a procedure defined in an internal set of guidelines
[3584] Every potential instance of misconduct will be investigated and responded to
[3584] If we learn of human rights violations in an existing contractual relationship, we will engage in dia- logue with the responsible stakeholders and seek to put risk-mitigating measures into practice
[5284] Our sourcing strategy will continue to explore further due diligence measures to mitigate risks in this area of our supply chain
[5284] As this is our first Modern Slavery Statement, we have not yet had the opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the above executed actions
[5284] We have established a process to review the completion and outcomes of assigned actions throughout the year and to review the overall effectiveness each year
[5284] Future Priorities Looking ahead, our focus will be on our governance structures to strengthen existing systems and processes, whilst investing further effort towards capacity-building both internally and with our suppliers
[5284] We at Ally Fashion strongly support fundamental human rights and the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking
[5284] One of the key learnings from us during this assessment and preparation of this Statement is the relatively low level of actual transparency

[462] MODERN SLAVERY STATEMENT 2020
[462] This statement outlines the actions taken by Computershare Limited (Computershare) and its related entities to identify and mitigate the risks of modern slavery in our businesses and supply chains, during the year ending 30 June 2020
[3584] Employees have the opportunity to report incidents directly to their line managers, the Compliance Officer or to Internal Audit
[3584] To additionally strengthen the compli- ance system, an independent external ombudsman has been appointed
[3584] Further- more, Munich Re and GLISE offers its staff members, clients, suppliers, and other business partners a whistleblowing portal publicly accessible on the Munich Re website to report potential or actual compliance breaches
[3584] Here, relevant information can be exchanged safely and confidentially globally and around the clock
[3584] The compliance unit receives this information and is responsible for processing it further
[3584] Everyone can provide information anonymously or under their own name
[3584] Munich Res Statement on the Australian Modern Slavery Act Page 5/6 Training and capacity building on slavery and human trafficking All Munich Re staff worldwide are required to attend training on the Code of Conduct every two years so that they are familiar with the standards of ethical conduct in our daily work and are aware of the need to observe these rules day to day
[3584] This training includes, for example, reporting of infringements, data protection and corruption
[5284] that we have into the practices engaged in by our level-one suppliers, let alone our entire supply chain network
[5284] This has greatly enhanced our perspective, understanding, and necessity of increasing visibility into such an important aspect of our supply chain, and stimulated a desire to continue this journey and worthy goal to do our part to try to eradicate modern slavery in our supply chain, in the retail and apparel industry, and hopefully, the world
[5284] Ally Fashion acknowledges that the actions taken are just the first steps in a journey towards ensuring there is no modern slavery in our supply chain
[5284] We are committed to making continuous ongoing improvement in our assessment and management of risk in this area
[5284] Our main future priorities include, but are not limited to
[5284] Execute and assess the effectiveness of the actions noted in this Statement
[5284] Broaden our level of interaction with all of our suppliers and contractors at every level to eradicate any degree of exposure or involvement in modern slavery beyond reasonable doubt
[5284] This includes conducting internal and supplier/contractor audits on a scheduled and randomized basis
[10492] Our Executive Leaders and Board were also intimately involved in creating and endorsing our ESG Framework
[10492] The ESG Framework provides the basis for ongoing efforts to meet our commitments to partner and work with our suppliers to combat modern slavery and human trafficking and improve working conditions
[10492] We reinforce, monitor, and assess our ESG Frame commitments by reflecting them as significant components of our Executive Leaders KPIs, which are cascaded down to individual KPIs through our organisation

[6063] Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement 2020/21 19 October 2021 Purpose of this statement This statement is made on behalf of Allen & Overy LLP, its wholly owned subsidiary Allen & Overy Service Company Ltd, Allen & Overy an Australian partnership, and the entities that they own or control (including The Trustee for Allen & Overy (Australia) Discretionary Trust and its trustee Allen & Overy (Australia) Pty Ltd) (together, the Firm) pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (the UK Act) and section 14 of the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) (the Australian Act) (the Statement)
[6063] The Statement describes the steps the Firm has taken in the financial year ending 30 April 2021
[6063] Introduction The Firm takes its obligations in relation to the identification, reporting and prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking very seriously
[10492] MODERN SLAVERY RISKS As a company that purchases a large volume of smart metering and communication devices, we consider that the main modern slavery risk in our supply chain comes from exposure to product manufacturing supply chains
[10492] We source our smart meters and associated communications technology from reputable global suppliers
[10492] Some of these suppliers partly operate in geographies with an elevated modern slavery risk for manufacturing, including China, Indonesia, and Malaysia
[10492] While modern slavery can be found in all countries, suppliers with manufacturing operations in countries associated with a higher risk for modern slavery, for example, countries with large populations of migrant workers, weak labour law enforcement, countries where charging workers recruitment fees is common practice, or countries where modern slavery prevalence has been well documented
[10492] Even though the suppliers we purchase from are well- established reputable organisations, we are careful to manage our relationships and contracting practices in a manner which helps ensure workers are safe
[10492] OUR ACTIONS OUR MODERN SLAVERY POLICIES Our policies communicate the Intellihub Groups values and expectations, setting standards for ourselves and our partners while making clear that we do not tolerate modern slavery
[462] Our business is mainly office based, with some print and mail and warehouse facilities supporting our communication services business
[462] Our commitment Computershare is committed to ensuring that modern slavery plays no part in the services we provide or in the supply chains we rely on to render those services
[462] Our Global Human Rights Policy reflects our commitment to act ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships
[462] We are committed to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls across our business and supply chains in support of these commitments
[462] We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains
[462] We expect the same high standards from all our suppliers and we expect that they hold their own suppliers to the same high standards
[462] Governance framework Our company values of Certainty, Ingenuity and Advantage, supported by our Being Purple ways of working, guide our staff in how they should act and conduct themselves
[462] We have redeveloped our global learning modules to embed our Being Purple ways of working and promote the right behaviours from our staff
[3584] The core-model will be rolled out globally over the next few years, and will enable us to improve accessibility, acceptance and documentation of the UN Global Compact Princi- ples among our global supply base
[3584] The human right to health was obviously a particular concern for Munich Re in 2020
[3584] In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Munich Re developed a compre- hensive hygiene concept at an early stage to protect staff against infection with SARS-CoV-2 through a variety of work-safety measures
[3584] The plan included strict rules for behaviour in office buildings (including meeting rooms, restrooms, cafe- terias and canteens), mandatory wearing of mouth and nose protection, guidance for unavoidable business travel including quarantine rules, and many more meas- ures
[3584] This hygiene concept was continuously adapted to the current pandemic
[3584] Munich Res Statement on the Australian Modern Slavery Act Page 6/6 situation across all locations worldwide
[3584] Several mouth-and-nose masks were distributed to each employee who entered an office building
[3584] From the beginning of the government-imposed lockdown measures, Munich Re made it possible for a large part of the workforce to work from home
[6063] The Firm is committed to taking appropriate steps to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking does not occur within any part of its own business or any of its supply chains
[6063] The Firms Business and Human Rights practice is also working with clients to help them avoid involvement in modern slavery and human trafficking and also has a programme of charitable and pro bono work that supports many human rights charities and non-government organisations
[6063] Overview of business activities The Firm is one of the worlds leading international legal practices providing legal expertise and legal services across a number of sectors within a culture built on a philosophy of continual improvement to meet its clients changing needs
[6063] The Firms expanding network of more than 40 offices in 29 countries spans Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, North America, Central and South America and Africa
[6063] The Firms full-service capabilities are delivered by approximately 5,500 people, including some 550 partners worldwide who work in a highly integrated manner across the Firms office network
[6063] The Firms supply chain As a law firm, the Firm has a relatively simple supply chain model that is built around supporting its core legal practice and maintaining its global office and technology infrastructure
[6063] The types of goods and services necessary to do so fall into five broad categories
[6063] business services the diverse range of products and services the Firm buys to ensure it can maintain normal day-to-day operations in its offices and support its core legal practice, such as catering, security, library services, and print and document services; ii) professional services the professional services the Firm buys such as external training, audit
[10492] These policies demonstrate our strong stance against modern slavery and include our
[10492] Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Framework
[10492] Modern Slavery Policy
[10492] Code of Conduct; and
[10492] Whistle-Blower Policy
[10492] Within the last reporting period, we launched our new ESG Framework
[10492] This framework sets out our goals and commitments in relation to combatting modern slavery and gives us a pathway forward to follow which supports and requires responsible sourcing, a safer workplace, helps drive zero emissions and enables each of us and everyone involved in our operations and supply chain to thrive
[10492] In particular, our ESG Framework directly addresses modern slavery under the Responsible Sourcing Pillar
[462] We have in place several policies to help guide our employees, including: Code of Conduct Global Human Rights Policy Diversity and Inclusion Policy Whistleblower Policy Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Policy
[462] In addition, our global compliance training program covers obligations under our group policies on issues such as health, safety, wellbeing and environment, discrimination and bullying, accessibility, diversity and inclusion, human rights, anti-bribery and anti-corruption measures, and privacy
[462] We monitor, report and manage mandatory training completion rates, as part of our training governance framework
[462] Employees who fail to complete mandatory compliance training without a valid reason may face disciplinary action
[462] Computershare has adopted a risk-based approach to assessing and managing modern slavery risk
[462] We established a working group to review our business and supply chain activities, and to coordinate the implementation of changes needed to comply with Modern Slavery legislation in Australia and in other jurisdictions in which Computershare operates
[462] This working group includes representatives from Procurement, Risk and Compliance, Legal, and business line management
[462] The group is responsible for implementing appropriate practices to manage and mitigate potential modern slavery risks across our businesses, operations and wider supply chains
