EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR<br />

<strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> recognises its responsibility to give back to the community. We<br />

believe that workplace giving is an efficient and effective way to do this.<br />

Employees are encouraged to participate in the Company’s Helping Hands<br />

Program which allows employees to donate to charity partners through<br />

regular payroll deductions. All donations are matched dollar-for-dollar by <strong>JB</strong><br />

<strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong>.<br />

"Change For Change" is the Company’s "spare change" donation program.<br />

Donation boxes are installed in all stores and the Support Office to<br />

encourage our customers and employees to donate some <strong>of</strong> their spare<br />

change to help change the lives <strong>of</strong> others. All donations are divided evenly<br />

between our charity partners.<br />

<strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> is concerned with the well-being <strong>of</strong> communities in which it is<br />

located. If it is practical, management will endorse and support part-time<br />

involvement by its staff in public or community service.<br />

On leaving <strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> each employee must surrender any <strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> assets and<br />

items containing business information. This includes intellectual property that<br />

may have been created while working with <strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong>.<br />

Employees must not destroy business documents and records that are<br />

required by law to be maintained for a statutory period, nor must any records<br />

be falsified or manipulated.<br />

Accurate recordkeeping is essential to our reputation and credibility. We must<br />

therefore ensure that we:<br />

• comply fully with the relevant laws and accounting standards and<br />

practices;<br />

• adhere to the latest developments in accounting practice and policy;<br />

• cooperate fully and honestly with our external auditors,<br />

in order to ensure that <strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong>’s financial information is accurate and<br />

presented in a timely manner.<br />

<strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> is committed to:<br />

• complying with its continuous disclosure obligations contained in the<br />

Listing Rules <strong>of</strong> the Australian Stock Exchange and under the<br />

Corporations Act; and<br />

• ensuring that all shareholders and the market have an equal opportunity<br />

to obtain and review full and timely information about <strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong>’s securities.<br />
