This Code replaces all the previous Codes of Ethics and Conduct and completes the policies and

guidelines that govern our Group and our companies. This text remains the only Code valid

throughout the entire scope of Grupo Antolin and if necessary, due to special and extraordinary

circumstances of a local nature, it will be supplemented by a special appendix adapted to the

corresponding country.

Compliance with the code is a condition for forming part of the team of professionals at Grupo

Antolin. However, this conduct requirement does not imply an employment contract or a job offer.

Grupo Antolin prefers to work and interact with people, groups of people, institutions or any other

form of organization that share the principles and commitments contained in this code;

encouraging the adoption of international standards of conduct and action in line with that

described in this document.

This code does not specifically address each and every one of the situations that could arise in the

running of our business. It also does not provide a list of responses to be able to deal with all the

business situations that could occur on a daily basis, nor can it replace common sense when

deciding how to act or behave.

Grupo Antolin reserves the right to review, amend and update the content of this code or its

sections at any time, in order to make it more flexible to the changing expectations and needs of

the company, its stakeholders, the current legislation and the commitments acquired in any or all

of the matters contemplated in it.

The content of the Ethical Code may not be unilaterally amended as this is the exclusive

responsibility of the Ethics Committee which, where necessary, will establish the corresponding

local appendix in order to complement it and meet local demands in each specific matter.

Any amendment, whole or part, of its content will be communicated promptly to all its recipients,

again obtaining their adherence to the procedures and systems designed for such purpose.

The original language of this document is Spanish (Castilian). The text is available in the languages

of the countries in which Grupo Antolin operates, in order to facilitate its understanding and

acceptance by the entire workforce. In the event of any conflict, the reference document is the

Spanish version which will prevail over all others.

This publication is the property of Grupo Antolin. For any queries concerning the Code or its

“One team,

one model of conduct.”

Being a leading sustainable company has always been the goal for Grupo

Antolin, a family company created more than 50 years ago as a result of the

dream of two entrepreneurs which, thanks to people like you, has become one of

the main suppliers of technology for car interiors.

The inclusion of sustainability in the company's business strategy has allowed us to

embrace aspects of an ethical, social and environmental nature, beyond the

vision of the traditional company. Innovation, financial strength and

internationalization are combined with ethics, good governance and

transparency as the pillars of our progress, reinforced with the publication of our

first Code of Ethics and Conduct in 2010.

The development of the Group, its adaptation to the new growth scenarios and

the new demands from customers and expectations of the other stakeholders,

have prompted the development in 2015 of a new version of this document, as a

mandatory corporate standard, with responsibilities shared by all of us who form a

part of this great team.

Given the impossibility of covering each and every one of the situations that could

arise when running our business, the Code is conceived as a roadmap that

summarizes our firm commitment to complying with human rights, dialog with

stakeholders, respect for strict compliance with legislation, the creation of a safe

working environment, the fight against corruption and, finally, environmental and

socially responsible commitment wherever Grupo Antolin is present. Additionally,

we must strive to ensure that these commitments are also shared by any person or

organization who maintains a business relationship with the Group.

I would like to take this opportunity to encourage you to make any suggestions or

comments, through the channels provided, regarding anything contained in this

Code or its application, which allows us to be a unique role model, a true

reflection of the company's values since its creation.

WHAT is it?

I The Grupo Antolin Code of Ethics and Conduct (together with the Grupo Antolin Policies and

Guidelines, hereinafter the Code) is a living document approved by the Ethics Committee

and endorsed by the Board of Directors. Its main aim is to ensure ethical and responsible

behavior when running our business.

WHY do we have it?

I With this document, Grupo Antolin makes public its commitment to the guidelines in the

Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights,

Children's Rights and Business Principles, as well as with the principles of the United Nations

Global Compact (of which it has been a founding partner in Spain since 2004) and the

guidelines and principles of the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the Organization

for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

WHAT is it for?

I This text is a reflection of the values that must guide the conduct of the company and the

people who work for it. It must lead to honesty, ethics, professionalism and transparency in our

relations with the customers, shareholders, employees, suppliers and society in general.

WHO has written it?

I The Grupo Antolin Ethics Committee, consisting of internal and external professionals, experts

in matters of Corporate Responsibility and labor and legal issues, has been responsible for

producing the final text.

In producing it, the needs and expectations of our main stakeholders have been taken into

account, as well as the regulatory and market requirements applicable to our business.

TO WHOM does it apply?

I The Code applies to all employees connected to Grupo Antolin, regardless of the

employment contract that determines their relationship with the company, the position they

occupy in the organization and the country in which they work.

Grupo Antolin extends its commitment to all subsidiary companies in which it is the majority

shareholder or has management control, as well as to its supply chain.

WHEN does it apply?

I The Code of Ethics and Conduct enters into force on the very day that Grupo Antolin makes

its commitment public.

Those who violate the Code or the policies and procedures of Grupo Antolin will be subject to

disciplinary measures proportionate to the offense, and will be punished to the full extent

allowed by the current regulations. Disciplinary action will also be taken against anyone who

orders or approves infringements or is aware of them and does not immediately act to

remedy them.

HOW is it applied?

I The Code is not a set of internal rules, nor does it replace any collective agreements or

national, European or international legislation. However, the company places great

importance on compliance with this Code, so all Grupo Antolin employees must be aware of

and respect the content and spirit of the document.

The Code must be read and interpreted jointly with Grupo Antolin's Policies, Guidelines and

Management Model. These Policies and Guidelines implement the commitments contained in

the Code and are available in the systems provided by the company through the Intranet

page and on its website.

In the event that the rules existing in a certain jurisdiction are more permissive than those

contained in this Code, the guidelines contained in the Code will prevail.

However, the current law, employment contracts and application of specific policies may

vary depending on the geographical location. See the different appendices to obtain

specific information about your country or region where applicable.

In the event of a conflict between local laws or employment contracts and a company

policy, these will take priority over the company policy. Furthermore, local policies and

practices must be adapted to reflect the Company's international policies.

Lastly, we must always call on our sense of responsibility and good judgement and in the

event of any doubt over the correct business conduct talk to our line managers, to the

Management or to the Ethics Committee, if deemed necessary.

WHERE can I find it?

I The Grupo Antolin Code of Ethics and Conduct is available to everyone working in any of the

companies that form part of the organization.

http://intranet.grupoantolin.com/sites/apps/EC

A printed version of the text is included in the procedure for welcoming new joiners, and a

copy of it can be requested at any time from the Human Resource department of each

company.

The official Spanish version and the English version are available to the general public on the

Grupo Antolin website. http://www.grupoantolin.com/en/people

legislation should be reported.

company, the Transparency Channel must be used as the official channel for reporting

these types of situations.

I Who can see my request? This information is only received by the Corporate

Department for Corporate Social Responsibility who will be responsible, in view of the details or

information provided, for deciding whether to launch the appropriate procedure for each

above.

The decision will be communicated exclusively to the interested parties and will be made

following the instructions contained in the Internal Regulation that governs the Committee,

representing the position of the company with regards to the conflict.

I How long does it take to resolve a complaint? There is no estimated time as each

request is dealt with personally and varies depending on the reported situation, information

available, people involved, languages and any other circumstance involved that affect its

resolution.

I For how long is the data saved? The personal data collected as a result of the process

for making a complaint via the Transparency Channel will be deleted as soon as all the

internal audit and/or legal measures resulting from the investigation carried out and

necessary for its resolution have been performed.

The Transparency or Whistleblowing Channel is corporate in nature.
