 <\/p>\n

1) CODE OF ETHICS AND CONDUCT<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.1) PURPOSE<\/p>\n

3C LAW’S\u00a0Code of Ethics\u00a0was developed to\u00a0ensure that each member, lawyer, associate, employee,\u00a0or business partner is aware of the principles that guide the decisions\u00a0inherent in the performance of\u00a0their respective duties. The focus is on maintaining\u00a0a transparent, ethical,\u00a0and honest relationship with each other, clients, public agencies, and other partners.<\/p>\n

When performing their duties,\u00a03C Law’s\u00a0members,\u00a0employees, and\u00a0business partners shall not take any action on behalf of themselves or\u00a03C Law in violation of this Code and\/or the laws applicable to their activities. If you have questions about the application and interpretation of this Code, seek guidance from the founding partners.<\/p>\n

In case of suspicion or violation of this Code, report it immediately to the founding partners.<\/p>\n

3C Law prohibits and does not tolerate any acts of retaliation against anyone who reports, in good faith, a suspected or actual violation of this Code.<\/p>\n

2) CONDUCT OF TEAM MEMBERS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS<\/strong><\/p>\n

2.1) CONDUCT IN AND OUT OF THE FIRM<\/p>\n

3C Law encourages a respectful and inclusive environment among its members, employees, and business partners, aiming to respect everyone’s dignity and enable good professional performance. Thus, we do not accept any act of discrimination and\/or harassment.<\/p>\n

Harassment is\u00a0any\u00a0unsolicited or unencouraged conduct of an abusive and\/or derogatory nature. It can\u00a0be\u00a0moral or sexual and\u00a0have\u00a0various forms (e.g.,\u00a0unwanted touching, verbal abuse,\u00a0bullying, etc.).<\/p>\n

By discrimination, we mean actions based on prejudice related to origin, religion, race, gender, sexual orientation, social class, age, marital status, political party position, and disability of any kind.<\/p>\n

3C Law’s members,\u00a0employees, and\u00a0business partners shall act in a manner consistent with the precepts of this Code and according to the highest ethical standards, observing honesty and integrity, always protecting\u00a03C Law’s image, reputation, and legitimate interests.<\/p>\n

This care must be maintained in public settings, both in the context of the performance of\u00a0the\u00a0professional activity and in private circumstances, avoiding involvement with any transaction or activity that could\u00a0adversely affect\u00a03C Law.<\/p>\n

The participation of 3C Law members in lectures, seminars, and other public events must observe the confidentiality of information regarding 3C Law’s activities, services, and clients.<\/p>\n

Only people authorized by 3C Law’s Leadership may represent or speak on its behalf, whether when\u00a0in contact with the press, during participation in a public event, in social media, among other occasions.<\/p>\n

3C Law members and employees must use their social media conscientiously, complying\u00a0with legal limits and the principles of this Code. Consistently, 3C Law respects freedom of expression in its most diverse forms.<\/p>\n

The relationship of 3C Law’s members,\u00a0employees, and\u00a0business partners with clients must be professional and based on courtesy, seeking an effective and transparent service in the operations performed\u00a0and respecting information confidentiality. These procedures must be observed in any relations with the clients.<\/p>\n

Business dealings with business partners will always be conducted in an isonomic, ethical, and transparent manner.<\/p>\n

To maintain integrity during negotiations, offering or receiving any concession and\/or advantage in the context of the purchase and sale of products or services (such as commissions, gifts, etc.), which may in any way bias the negotiations, is prohibited. Similarly, obtaining or offering price-related privileges or other privileges when purchasing goods for personal use is not allowed.<\/p>\n

In addition, 3C Law’s members and employees must promptly inform any affective, corporate,\u00a0or employment relationship, including kinship with business partners or clients, so that\u00a0we may conduct\u00a0a proper analysis of the situation. This measure is necessary to avoid situations of conflict of interest.<\/p>\n

3C Law members or employees who intend to participate, directly or indirectly, as an employee, partner, or member of the management of any other legal entity (such as a corporation, association, foundation, etc.) must inform the\u00a0respective\u00a0area or person in charge at\u00a03C Law in advance.\u00a0The same applies to members and employees carrying out\u00a0other activities that may conflict with those developed by\u00a03C Law, leading to\u00a0a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n

2.3) SPECIFIC RULES FOR EQUITY AND SERVICE PARTNERS AND ASSOCIATES<\/p>\n

It is the responsibility of 3C Law partners and associates to timely pay their Brazilian Bar Association (OAB\/SP) annual fees. If any partner or associate is in default with the OAB\/SP, the situation must be immediately communicated and solved by the defaulting party within two (2) days, as of the acknowledgment of such default.<\/p>\n

Failure by the defaulting party to remedy the matter will entitle 3C Law to perform the payment and deduct the amounts paid from the defaulting party’s compensation.<\/p>\n

According to Resolution No. 16\/98 of the Ethical Court of the Brazilian Bar Association, after leaving\u00a03C Law, partners and associates will be barred from acting professionally for clients in 3C Law’s Client Portfolio for two (2) years, unless otherwise\u00a0expressly agreed with\u00a03C Law.<\/p>\n

The infringing party will be subject to the payment of damages resulting from the violation of this item. Furthermore, such party will also be liable for any acts practiced before the Ethics Court of the Brazilian Bar Association (S\u00e3o Paulo Regional Office) and other competent bodies, including the Judiciary.<\/p>\n

3) ANTI-CORRUPTION GUIDELINES<\/strong><\/p>\n

3C Law\u00a0and\u00a0its members, employees,\u00a0and business partners are committed to\u00a0observing\u00a0the anti-corruption laws in force, especially Law No. 12.846\/2013 (Anti-Corruption\u00a0Law). 3C Law also disapproves all forms of corruption, whether within the context of public relations (transactions directly or indirectly involving any Government Entity or Public Official) or in the context of private relations (transactions between private individuals or companies without the involvement of a Public Official and\/or Government Entity);<\/p>\n

Thus, 3C Law members, employees, or business partners are not authorized to:<\/p>\n
