Our suppliers are subject to the laws and regulations of their home countries, including in particular laws
regulating labor, forestry and the environment. We consult with our suppliers, as appropriate, to ensure that
they are in compliance with their applicable home country laws. We also support social and environmental
responsibility among our supplier community and our suppliers agree to comply with our expectations
concerning environmental, labor and health and safety matters. Those expectations include representations
and warranties that our suppliers comply with the laws, rules and regulations of the countries in which they
operate.
Products that we import into the United States and Canada are subject to laws and regulations imposed in
conjunction with such importation, including those issued and/or enforced by U.S. Customs and Border
Protection and the Canadian Border Services Agency. In addition, certain of our products are subject to laws
and regulations relating to the importation, acquisition or sale of illegally harvested plants and plant products
and the emissions of hazardous materials. We work closely with our suppliers in order to comply with the
applicable laws and regulations in these areas.
We monitor changes in applicable laws and regulations and believe that we currently conduct, and in the
past have conducted, our activities and operations in substantial compliance with applicable laws and
regulations relating to the environment and protection of natural resources. However, there can be no
assurance that such laws will not become more stringent in the future or that we will not incur additional
costs in the future in order to comply with such laws.
