Jim Peplinski Leasing recognizes that  individuals may  find  it  difficult  to  come forward
                   with   a   complaint   under   this   policy   because   of   concerns   of confidentiality.
                   Therefore, all complaints concerning workplace or sexual harassment or discrimination,
                   as well as the names of parties involved, shall be treated as confidential.

                   Jim  Peplinski  Leasing  investigation  into  the  alleged  complaint  may  require  limited
                   disclosure.   No record of the complaint will be maintained in the personnel file of the
                   complainant.  If there is a finding of improper conduct that results in disciplinary action,
                   it  will  be  reflected  only  in  the  file  of  the  person who engaged in such conduct, in the
                   same way as any other disciplinary action.

                   If  you  experience  or  witness  harassment  or  suspicious  behaviour  in  the  workplace,
                   report  it  immediately  to  your  manager/supervisor.  If  you  are  of  the  view  that  your
                   manager/supervisor is  personally  involved  in  the  harassment,  you  should  report  the
                   matter  to  your  manager/supervisor’s immediate  manager and/or  a  representative  of
                   the  Human  Resources  Department.  Your  manager/supervisor,  upon  receiving  a
                   complaint of harassment, will immediately contact the Human Resources Department.
                   In turn, the Human Resources Department will initiate an investigation in keeping with
                   all procedures to protect all parties and ensure objectivity, justice and confidentiality. In
                   your  best  interest,  it  would  be  important  to  keep  notes  as  to  the  time,  date,  place,
                   details  and  the  names  of  any  witnesses.  This  documentation  would  assist  any
                   investigation that will take place in response to a situation of harassment. All allegations
                   of  harassment  will  be  quickly  and  discreetly  investigated.   When  the  investigation  is
                   completed, you will be informed of the outcome of the investigation.



                   WORKPLACE VIOLENCE AND UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR (Rev.
                   August 24, 2010)

                   Jim  Peplinski  Leasing  will  not  tolerate  violence  or  unacceptable  behaviour  in  the
                   workplace perpetrated by or against team members, clients, or other third parties. In
                   the  event  of  a  violent  incident  or  unacceptable  behaviour  carried  out  by  a  team
                   member, Jim Peplinski Leasing will act to severely discipline the team member guilty of
                   the misconduct, up to and including discharge for cause.

                   Jim  Peplinski  Leasing  shall  establish  programs  and  procedures  to  reduce  the  risk  of
                   violence and unacceptable behaviour in the workplace. All team members are expected
                   to be aware of and participate in such programs and procedures, as required.

                   The violence and unacceptable behaviour prevention program shall include:

                                                                                                        18
