"Zebra is a member of the Responsible Business Alliance (“RBA”) and supports the vision and goals of the RBA and the application of its standards in maintaining and improving social, economic and environmental performance in operations of Zebra and its suppliers. Zebra is committed to conforming to the principles of the RBA Code of Conduct (which prohibits the use of forced labor, bonded labor (including debt bondage), indentured labor, involuntary prisoned labor, slavery or trafficking) in its own operations, and promotes that its suppliers implement the principles of the RBA Code in their operations as well as within their supply chains. Zebra has a Supplier Code of Conduct which explains our expectations when doing business as a Zebra supplier, including our alignment to pillars of the RBA Code of Conduct. A number of Zebra’s major suppliers, which comprise approximately 80% of Zebra’s direct supply chain by spend, represent and warrant performance with ethical standards and in conformance with applicable legal requirements in the agreements they sign to supply products and services to Zebra. Some of these major supply agreements also include representations to comply with the RBA Code of Conduct or commitments to not use prohibited labor.

A number of those template documents require suppliers to understand the principles and intent of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) principles fostered by the RBA Code of Conduct or any internationally recognized equivalent in the areas of Environmental Sustainability, Health and Safety, and Labor and Ethics, and to provide services in conformance with the principles and aims of the RBA Code of Conduct, to the extent applicable. Zebra’s supply chain reviews agreements with current suppliers as they expire for the purpose of promoting such compliance. A violation of these provisions in Zebra’s supply agreements may be considered a breach of the supply agreement and a number of Zebra’s major supply agreements provide Zebra with the ability to terminate the supply agreement and pursue various penalties and damages against that supplier.
