3.2 Inside Trading:
All employees are not permitted, using their own
names or the names of people with whom they
have personal relationships, to engage in business
ventures the same as or similar to HTC or to invest
exceeding five percent of total market value in
such a company. Employees are also prohibited
from use so-called “Inside Information＂ to gain
personal profit or to influence the independent
judgment of business entities, such as investment
in competitors, customers, venders/suppliers or
subcontractors. “Inside Information＂ comprises
facts that an employee knows, but people outside
of HTC may not know, which might be in written
form or discussed orally in a meeting. Inside
information may also be information received
from another company, such as from customers,
suppliers or companies with which HTC has a joint
research or development program. Therefore,
employees may never use inside information to
trade or influence the trading of stocks of HTC

“tips＂ or share inside information with any other
person who might trade stock. Insider trading
violates company policies and may subject the
employee to criminal penalties in accordance with
the government's regulations/laws.
3.3 Creditor and debtor relations:
Employees may have debtor and creditor relations
with colleagues without interest to help each other
for urgent situation, but are not allowed to have
creditor or debtor relations with subordinates,
customers, suppliers/venders, or anyone in a
business relationship, nor introduce such persons
(including colleagues)to anyone to enter any
debtor- creditor relations.
3.4 Third party invitations, which
may reference your role and/or
knowledge as an employee at HTC:
If any HTC employee is invited to join external
meetings, conferences, seminars, lectures, etc., or
if asked to be a host or judge for an event during
or outside of office hours, he/she must secure
approval from the line manager and local PR team
prior to participation.
3.5

range of welfare measures such as life insurance,
health and convenience services. As employees,
you should appreciate the resources provided
by the company and do not abuse or misuse the
corporate welfare system.
3.6

anyone in the company, customers or third-parties
such as suppliers or subcontractors to invest in
other businesses.
