INPEV 7 inpEV |G4-3, 4, 5, 6 e 7| The Institute coordinates the environmentally correct disposal of empty post-consumption crop protection packages throughout Brazil with the best governance practices IN THIS CHAPTER Personnel management Corporate governance Financial management and administration The National Institute for Processing Empty Packages (inpEV - Instituto Nacional de Processamento de Embalagens Vazias) is a non-profit organization created by crop protection manufacturers. One hundred companies and nine entities representative of the sector comprise the organization. The creation of the Institute was a response to Federal Law nr. 9.974/2000, which instituted the concept of shared responsibilities in the correct disposal of postconsumption crop protection packages, whereby farmers became responsible for returning such material to retailers (distribution channels), which in turn should return them to manufacturers for final disposal. In order to put into practice this reverse logistics system, inpEV acts as an intelligence nucleus of the Campo Limpo System (SCL) and articulates all links in the chain to correctly dispose of packages in a definite fashion. SCL has 415 receiving units (central stations or outposts), located in 25 states of the country and in the Federal District. In order to reach the most remote locations and increase the adhesion of small farmers, it also offers itinerant collections, which mainly cover locations where production dynamics do not justify the upkeep of a fixed infrastructure (more about SCL on page 16). |G4-8| BECOME A MEMBER Participants of the DNCL celebration in Ponta Grossa (PR) Manufacturers or companies that commercialize products registered by the Ministry of Agriculture, Cattle and Supply (Mapa), in accordance with Federal Law Nr. 7.802/89, may become members of inpEV.

Around 64% of collaborators are stationed in the Southeast Region and 29% in the Mid-West. Of the four third-party collaborators, three are in the Southeast while one in the Midwest. Except for interns and apprentices, all labor contracts are full-time for an indefinite period of time. (For further information, please see page 48.) |G4-10| People management stimulates professional growth and focus on results. In order to guide collaborator development, the Institute promoted more than 2,000 hours of training in 2014, with an average of 32.6 hours per professional.. |G4-LA9| With the intent of reinforcing the commitment of its professionals with organizational results, the Results Agreement and Performance Evaluation (ADCR) was consolidated in 2014, which established a follow-up routine for individual growth per area of activity and for the organization as a whole. The ADCR, which is measured on a quarterly basis, guides professional activities and allows for quick path adjustments. Objectives attainment determines the variable compensation of professionals. ADCR is applied to all in-house collaborators with the exception of central station operators managed by inpEV, whose performance will be measured using a specific tool starting in 2015. Mission |G4-56| Contribute towards preserving the environment and the Campo Limpo System, by means of self-sustainable management of the final disposal of empty packages of plant health products and by providing services in the solid waste area, with the involvement and integration of all links of the agricultural productive chain. Vision Be acknowledged worldwide as a center of excellence in the final disposal of empty plant health packages and a reference in providing services in the solid waste and self-sustainable area in Brazil. Values and principles • Integrating attitude • Innovation • Integrity • Socio-environmental responsibility • Safety INPEV 9 In order to stimulate professional growth of its collaborators, inpEV held an average of 32.6 hours of training per collaborator in 2014 NUMBER OF COLLABORATORS (%) HEALTH In order to promote wellbeing and preventive actions, inpEV reinforced, in 2014, the Mais Saúde [More Health] program, which encourages a healthy diet and physical activities. Throughout the year, talks and periodic bulletins developed awareness among staff regarding these topics. WOMEN 41 MEN 59 HIRING AND BENEFITS All inpEV collaborators are hired with work agreements in accordance with Brazil’s Consolidated Labor Laws (CLT – Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho) and workers are benefited by collective bargaining negotiated with the local São Paulo and Rondonópolis labor unions. |G4-11| Among the benefits provided are meal vouchers, transportation vouchers, life insurance, health and dental plans, incapacity/invalidity coverage, reimbursement of physical activities (except for operators of the receiving central stations) and maternity/paternity leaves.

INPEV 11 Corporate governance |G4-34| Since its foundation, inpEV employs the best practices in the market, with a management model based on strict auditing and control standards. As part of its transparency commitment towards associated companies and entities and other links of the chain, the institute discloses the result of its activities and operations on an annual basis in accordance with Brazilian accounting principles, according to the guidelines of external auditors and with the opinion of its Fiscal Counsel. Its General Assembly is the most important forum within its decision-making structure. Formed by all present members, it is held once a year to validate mid- and long-term strategic guidelines and approve economic and operational statements. The Board of Directors is formed by 13 full members - five representatives of the contributing partners (elected during a General Assembly) and eight representatives of the member entities (collaborating members). Its role is to define the guidelines to ensure fulfillment of the bylaws. Besides this, it certifies that all laws are fulfilled, that assets are protected and a close relationship with all links in the chain is maintained, among other roles. Day-by-day management of the Institute befalls upon the Executive Committee, presided by the presiding director, who is an independent professional (without any bond to member companies) nominated by the Board of Directors. Its structure is complemented with the activities of the Fiscal Counsel, which is formed by three members (among contributing members) elected during the General Assembly and supports and supervises other governance instances. 13 contributing members and collaborating members form the Board of Directors BOARD OF DIRECTORS (CONTRIBUTING PARTNERS) Basf S.A.

Most of the Institute’s revenues come from contributions made by member companies while the rest comes from accreditation fees from SCL partnering recyclers, from fees charged to cover costs of receiving units and from the lease of the Campo Limpo Reciclagem e Transformação de Plásticos. By abiding by a consistent financial consolidation pathway, inpEV has progressively been reducing the participation percentage coming from corporate contributions. In 2013 they represented 56% and in 2014 51%. inpEV is a private non-profit company formed by non-remunerated members.
