Vendor Code of Conduct & Ethics

Event Hollow is committed to the highest standards of ethical business conduct and to the practice of business in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. To that end, the Company has established a set of company standards of business practices and regulatory compliance that are set out in the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which applies to all Event Hollow employees, directors, officers and subcontracted companies and professionals. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is an extension of our values and reflects our commitment to ethical business practices and regulatory compliance.

Event Hollow expects that its vendors will share and embrace the letter and spirit of our commitment to integrity. By “vendor” we mean any firm or individual that provides a product or service to Event Hollow or directly to any of its clients. We understand that vendors are independent entities, but the business practices and actions of a vendor may significantly impact and/or reflect upon us, our reputation and our brand, which is one of our most important assets. Because of this, Event Hollow expects all vendors and their employees, agents and subcontractors (their “representatives”) to adhere to the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics while they are conducting business with and/or on behalf of Event Hollow.

All vendors should educate their representatives to ensure they understand and comply with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Additionally, all Event Hollow vendors and their representatives shall:
