In line with its integrity and compliance standards, Ternium has launched the Compliance Line, a confidential communication channel available to all personnel, suppliers, investors and third parties in general.

The Compliance Line allows users to report potential irregularities, including but not restricted to those related to accountability, auditing and internal control.

The Compliance Line has now been enabled for new Ternium's plants in Mexico. The objective of the Compliance Line is to offer a confidential channel of communication - either anonymous or personalized - for employees and third parties in order to report potential irregularities.

Situations that must be reported to the Compliance Line include, for example, non-compliance with laws, norms or internal company policies, asset misappropriation or misuse, the use of confidential information or improper commercial incentives. The Compliance Line does not receive administrative complaints.

In order to ensure the analysis of the reports received via the Compliance Line, it is important to provide precise information on: what happened; who was involved; when, how and where the event took place.

The Audit Management, under the direct supervision of Ternium´s Chairman and, regarding accounting, auditing and internal control of accounting reports issues, under the supervision of the Ternium Audit Committee, will analyze the reports received via the Compliance Line, considering all data supplied as strictly confidential as long as it is in accordance with the applicable legislation.
