We have a Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets out our expectations for organizations, including their employees and representatives, who supply goods and services to us (collectively, our “Suppliers”). The Supplier Code of Conduct is delivered to Suppliers and we require in our contractual arrangements that they comply with such code of conduct. Although Franco-Nevada has certain suppliers of office supplies for our corporate operations, most of our Suppliers are technical, ESG and other consultants who provide information and advice to our company to support and supplement our due diligence when evaluating royalty and stream opportunities. Suppliers are expected to: § Conduct their business activities in compliance with laws and standards in the jurisdictions in which they operate; § Prevent conflicts of interest with Franco-Nevada; § Employ individuals above the legal age of employment, not to use forced or slave labour, meet minimum wage requirements and not exceed working hour and day regulations; § Recognize freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining; § Refrain from discriminating against their employees; § Respect the dignity of their own employees and others, adhere to principles of diversity and maintain a respectful workplace; and § Afford equality of opportunity to all people. Suppliers are also encouraged to: § Reduce GHGs; § Preserve water and minimize water pollutants; § Maintain soil, biodiversity and ecosystem quality; § Reduce resource waste and foster optimal resource use; § Incorporate climate change risk assessment into their risk management procedures; and § Measure and publicly report on their climate change risk and environmental performance. In addition, in accordance with our Climate Action Policy (described on page 34), before transacting with any significant provider of goods for our corporate operations, we ensure that such supplier has commitments, plans, targets and initiatives aligned with net-zero emissions by 2050 or sooner. Failure of any of our Suppliers to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct may result in the termination of our relationship with the Supplier. To date, we have not discovered any failure to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct in our assessment of Suppliers' performance under our contractual arrangements, nor have we been made aware of any such failure through any third party complaints, and as such, no corrective actions to mitigate Suppliers' non-conformance have been required. This year marks our second year of reporting under Canada’s Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act. Our report outlines the steps we have taken during 2024 to prevent and reduce the risk that forced labour or child labour is used in our business or supply chain.
