8. A multi-faceted approach • Water Conservation • Waste Reduction • GHG Reduction • Energy Efficiency • Corporate Citizenship • Social Responsibility

9. Water Conservation • From the sugar cane we grow in our fields to the processes we use in our refineries and packaging plants, water is an important ingredient in our business. • Reducing our water usage is significant for a number of reasons. The systems required to move water through our fields and refineries use energy. Reducing the water we use, therefore, immediately lowers our energy consumption. Just as important, reducing our water usage lowers our impact on nearby water resources. • We have a robust water-reduction program, and we have been decreasing our usage across the entire production process. Two types of water are used to make our products: potable water (7%) and raw water (93%), which comes directly from local natural resources. • In 2013, our total global use of potable water was reduced by 4% across all facilities • In 2013, we reduced our water usage per 100 pounds of finished product by 2%. • In 2013, our overall sugar effluent (remaining potable water after sugar making process is complete) was reduced by 5% against the previous year.

10. Waste Reduction • Across every aspect of our business, reducing waste is a significant part of our sustainability program. • In FY2013, our waste-reduction program yielded in an impressive 9% decrease of total waste disposed from packaging, general plant, office and food waste streams. • Recycling is a key part of our initiative, as it reduces our waste-to-landfill output and provides a positive reuse of waste. Although recycling rates vary greatly by facility (from 0% to 99%), in FY2013, the average recycling rate across all of our facilities was 40%—a 12% improvement from the previous year. • We’ve also made enormous strides when it comes to reusing our sugar-refining-process byproducts, such as calcium carbonate cake and diatomaceous earth. These materials are high in nutrients and minerals, making them attractive as agricultural fertilizers. In FY2013, we diverted 97% of the calcium carbonate cake and biomass/soil byproducts. • Our waste-reduction numbers are forecasted to improve even further in the future. Our engineers are researching and developing innovations that may enable the company to further the options for reuse of calcium carbonate cake in a range of materials, from automotive plastics to recycled cardboard to poultry feed supplements.

11. Green House Gas (GHG) Reduction • What are the greenhouse gas emissions we measure? • Carbon Dioxide (CO2) • Methane (CH4) • Nitrous Oxide (N2O) • Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF6) • Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) • Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)

12. Green House Gas (GHG) Reduction • The primary causes of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions include the use of fossil fuels, such as natural gas and oil. • As recommended by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, we measure GHG emissions using standardized scope measurements. • Reducing our energy consumption lowers our GHG emissions and shrinks our carbon footprint. • According to a 2010 study, a typical sugar cane refinery emits approximately 20 - 28 pounds of CO2e* for each CWT of refined sugar it produced. • We are pleased to report that our refineries significantly outperform this industry baseline. Our average GHG value across all our refineries was 18 pounds of CO2e/CWT of sugar. • GHG emissions for our non-refining operations continue to be relatively small, in comparison, registering at 8 pounds of CO2e/CWT.

13. Energy Efficiency • From 2007 -2012, the ASR-Group reduced our energy usage by a weighted average 12%. • In FY 2013, we were able to decrease fossil fuel use across our company by an additional 6%. • Cogeneration: • We have been using cogeneration at many of our facilities for over 80 years. • Our co-generation facilities (using biomass) are 70-80% efficient vs. typical fossil fuel energy plants that are only 33% efficient. • In FY 2013, the ASR-Group generated an excess of 61,256 megawatt hours of electricity—enough to power 2,060 homes for an entire year.

14. Corporate Citizenship • We strive to meet a standard as an outstanding employer and to ensure high levels of employee commitment by focusing on these core values: • Doing Business with Integrity • Promoting a Discrimination-Free and Harassment-Free Workplace • Ensuring Workplace Health and Safety • Providing Ongoing Training and Leadership • Investing in Corporate Philanthropy • Developing and promoting Community programs

15. How we do it?Corporate Social Responsibility STEP 1 Suppliers commit to ASR Ethical Sourcing Code STEP 1 Suppliers commit to ASR Ethical Sourcing Code • 5 critical compliance factors • No child, forced, slave or bonded labour is used • A worker health and safety program must be in place and active • Land use is legal and ethical • Bribery or corruption does not take place • A plan to mitigate environmental impact must be in place and active STEP 2 Self assessment on each supplier to prioritise further checks STEP 2 Self assessment on each supplier to prioritize further checks STEP 3 Independent audits against Pro-Terra Standard STEP 4 Feedback, remediation and monitoring work with supplier 3

16. Fairtrade also a key elementsocial responsibility & environmental sustainability 30% improvement in productivity in Belize Bringing piped water to rural communities in Fiji Maintenance of equipment in Guyana Fertilizer subsidy in Jamaica Funding for schools in rural Fiji Biological Pest Control in Belize

17. Why we use Pro-Terrasocial responsibility & environmental sustainability • Pro-Terra similar to other standards such as Fairtrade & Bonsucro • We have used it since 2007 • We have chosen it because of its: • excellent coverage of human rights and environmental issues • high level of acceptance by suppliers • relevance to large and small agriculture and cane mills • verifiability by 3rd party auditors • Audit of each mill and its suppliers typically 5 days and costs £10,000 • Desk research sensitises auditor to any issues for specific focus. 17
