Yahoo, etc.) on the Company’s computer systems that are not ordinarily used in the performance
of their job duties.

Violation of this policy may result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.

Telephones

Lupin provided telephones and telephone systems are intended for business purposes. We
recognize that periodically, personal phone calls must be made or be received during the business
hours. Such calls should be held at a minimum so that they do not interfere with your job
responsibilities or interrupt others.

Social Media

The Company respects the right of any employee to maintain a blog or website or to participate in
social networking on or through websites or services such as Twitter, Facebook, or similar
sites/services (collectively “social media”). However, to protect the Company’s interests and
ensure employees focus on their job duties, employees must adhere to the following rules:

• Employees may not use social media during working time, unless specifically authorized
to do so as part of their job duties.
• All rules regarding confidential and proprietary business information apply in full to social
media. Any information that cannot be disclosed through a conversation, a note or an e-
mail also cannot be disclosed through social media.
• When using social media, if an employee mentions the Company and also expresses either
a political opinion or an opinion regarding the Company’s actions, the poster must
specifically state that the opinion expressed is his/her personal opinion and not the
Company’s position. This is necessary to preserve the Company’s goodwill in the
marketplace.
• Be respectful of potential readers and colleagues. Please do not use discriminatory
comments, or make maliciously false statements when commenting about the Company,
superiors, co-workers, or our competitors.
• Employees may not use the Company’s logos or trademarks for commercial purposes or to
endorse any product or service.
• Any conduct which is impermissible under the law if expressed in any other form or forum
is impermissible if expressed through social media. For example, posted material that is
discriminatory, obscene, defamatory, libelous, or threatening is forbidden.

All other Company policies apply equally to social media.

The Company encourages all employees to keep in mind the speed and manner in which
information posted through social media can be relayed (and often misunderstood) by
readers. Employees must use their best judgment. Employees with any questions should review
the guidelines above and/or consult with their supervisor/manager. When in doubt, do not post!
