For nearly six decades, one of the cornerstones of Fleishman-Hillard's corporate philosophy has been our commitment to the highest ethical standards. To help continue that heritage, we have a hotline for employees, clients, suppliers, and anyone associated with FH to anonymously report any questionable or unethical behavior they believe has occurred. The telephone numbers are:

(800) 306-7508 in the United States
(212) 415-3364 outside the United States

The ethics hotline, which is operated through Omnicom's "Internal Control Line," is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Callers may leave a message at any time or speak directly to a representative Monday — Friday, 9:30 a.m. — 4:30 p.m. U.S. Eastern time, except holidays.

Questionable or unethical behavior is anything that runs contradictory to FH's core values or is a potential violation of the law or our operating policies. Reported incidents are taken very seriously:

• Callers' identities are protected. Callers remain anonymous unless they choose otherwise. If callers decide to disclose themselves, their identities are held in confidence to the extent practical or lawful.
• Incidents are reported to senior management. Every call results in a notification to Dave Senay, President and CEO, Chairman John Graham, Chief Talent Officer Agnes Gioconda, and the appropriate regional president.
• We will investigate. Each report is fully pursued as soon as possible using the information provided. The firm takes swift action to address any shortcomings that are identified.
