The company's supplier terms of engagement need to be signed by the supplier, it entitles the company to terminate the contract in case of breach of code of conduct.

pg. 1

"The purpose of these TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT is to make clear that, taking into account differences in cultures and legal requirements, we expect that wherever our products are manufactured they will be manufactured in a manner compatible with the high standards that have contributed to the outstanding reputation of our brands and our Company. Each of the Company s contractors, suppliers and agents, agrees that, by accepting orders from the Company or any of its subsidiaries, it will abide by and implement these Terms of Engagement and require the same from each of its VF approved and authorized subcontractors. Each of the Company s contractors, suppliers and agents acknowledges that its failure to honor this agreement will compel VF to reevaluate, and possibly terminate, its business relationship with such supplier."
