Statement on the Purpose of a Corporation

Americans deserve an economy that allows each person to succeed through hard work and creativity
and to lead a life of meaning and dignity. We believe the free-market system is the best means of
generating good jobs, a strong and sustainable economy, innovation, a healthy environment and
economic opportunity for all.

Businesses play a vital role in the economy by creating jobs, fostering innovation and providing
essential goods and services. Businesses make and sell consumer products; manufacture equipment
and vehicles; support the national defense; grow and produce food; provide health care; generate
and deliver energy; and offer financial, communications and other services that underpin economic
growth.

While each of our individual companies serves its own corporate purpose, we share a fundamental
commitment to all of our stakeholders. We commit to:

- Delivering value to our customers. We will further the tradition of American companies
leading the way in meeting or exceeding customer expectations.

- Investing in our employees. This starts with compensating them fairly and providing important
benefits. It also includes supporting them through training and education that help develop
new skills for a rapidly changing world. We foster diversity and inclusion, dignity and respect.

- Dealing fairly and ethically with our suppliers. We are dedicated to serving as good partners to
the other companies, large and small, that help us meet our missions.
- Supporting the communities in which we work. We respect the people in our communities
and protect the environment by embracing sustainable practices across our businesses.

- Generating long-term value for shareholders, who provide the capital that allows companies
to invest, grow and innovate. We are committed to transparency and effective engagement
with shareholders.

Each of our stakeholders is essential. We commit to deliver value to all of them, for the future success
of our companies, our communities and our country.
