Ethics & Social Responsibility Plan

SAMPLE PLAN: SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY & SUSTAINABILITY

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY & SUSTAINABILITY

ComputerEase is committed to making a positive contribution to our community, to being a good corporate citizen in

all our actions, and to implementing environmentally responsible practices into every aspect of our operations.

Recognizing our responsibilities, ComputerEase has adopted a number of operational policies and developed a

community involvement program. This program and these policies reflect the reality that we are still a new, small

company and our primary efforts are directed toward building and growing a healthy business.

Company Philosophy

Reflecting our desire to be a good corporate citizen, ComputerEase has adopted the following “Company

Philosophy”:

— We will, as a company and as individuals, take responsibility for our actions;

— We will, as a company and as individuals, deal fairly and honestly with our customers, students, suppliers, the

public, and each other;

— When making decisions, we will, as a company and as individuals, consider the impact of our decisions on others

and on the environment;

Shows how the company behaves as a good “corporate citizen.”

— We will consistently try to give the highest level of performance to each customer and each student;

— We recognize that without profits our company cannot survive, so we will make our best efforts to increase the

profitability of our company within an ethical and honest framework;

— We will give back to our community and society and make a positive commitment to its health and well-being;

— We will respect our coworkers and recognize their needs as employees and as human beings; and

— We will listen to each other.

Community Involvement

In developing our community involvement program, the staff of ComputerEase first looked to identify those ways in

which we could use our corporate strengths (given our limited time and financial resources) to make a meaningful

contribution to our community. We recognized that our unique strength is our ability to teach computer programs in

an understandable manner, along with our Computer Training Center facility located in the heart of downtown

Vespucci.

Specifies community activities.

ComputerEase has entered into a partnership with the Downtown Vespucci Community Center to provide free

computer training programs for inner-city youth, low-income residents, and “welfare-to-work” program participants.

These training programs are held once a month at ComputerEase’s downtown Computer Training Center on days or

times when the Center would otherwise not be in use (Sundays/some
