5. NO GIFT POLICY

5.1 Employees, or agents acting for or on behalf of ZKSB Group and Directors are prohibited
from, directly or indirectly, receiving or providing gifts.

5.2 It shall be mandatory for Directors, Employees, contractors and agents to abide by this
Policy to avoid conflict of interest or the appearance of conflict of interest for either party in
on-going or potential business dealing between ZKSB Group and external parties as a gift
can be seen as a bribe that may tarnish ZKSB Group’s reputation or be in violation of
antibribery and corruption laws.

5.3 A conflict of interest arises in a situation in which an individual is in a position to take
advantage of his or her role in ZKSB Group for his or her personal benefit, including the
benefit of his or her acquaintances and friends. This would undermine the duties of good
faith, fidelity, diligence and integrity as expected by ZKSB Group from its employees and
directors in the performance of their duties and obligations.

5.4 It is the responsibility of Employees and Directors to inform external parties involved in any
business dealings with ZKSB Group that ZKSB Group practices a “No Gift Policy” and to
request the external party’s understanding for and adherence with this Policy.

6. RECEIVING GIFTS

6.1 ZKSB acknowledges that the exchange of gifts can be a very delicate matter where, in
certain cultures or situations, gift giving is a central part of business etiquette. Despite
acknowledging ZKSB Group’s “No Gift Policy”, some external parties may still insist in
providing gifts to Employees and/or Directors in certain situations which do not fall within the
general exceptions.

6.2 Although the general principle is to immediately refuse or return such gifts save and except
in circumstances which is customary in nature, accepting a gift on behalf of ZKSB Group is
allowed only in very limited circumstances, whereby refusing the gift is likely to seriously
offend and may sever ZKSB Group’s business relationship with the Third Party.
Notwithstanding the above, in no circumstances may an Employee accept gifts in the
form of cash or cash equivalent.


6.3 In these limited circumstances, Directors and/or Employees shall surrender the gift
immediately to Group Risk & Compliance Department for record purposes. Group Legal
Department with the consultation with the Management will then decide whether to approve
the acceptance of the gift or require it to be returned.

6.4 Even if it may appear disrespectful to refuse a gift from an external party, nevertheless, if
there is a conflict of interest situation (e.g. bidding is in progress and the company that gave
the gift is one of the bidders) then the Head of Department cannot approve the acceptance
of said gift In this situation, the gift must be politely returned with a note of explanation about
this Policy.

7. PROVIDING GIFTS

Save and except for circumstances which are customary in nature, Employees and Directors are
not allowed to provide gifts to third parties without the prior written approval from the Group
Executive Director.
