    Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

    For the financial year ended 31 October 2022

    Micro Focus International Limited (previously Micro Focus International Plc) (“Micro Focus”) makes this modern slavery and human trafficking statement under section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (the “Act”). It confirms the actions Micro Focus took during the financial year ended 31 October 2022 (“FY22”) to ensure modern slavery is not taking place in any of our supply chains or any part of our business globally.

    References to “modern slavery” in this statement follow the definition within the Act and include, but are not limited to, slavery, servitude, forced labour, child labour, human trafficking, and workplace abuse.

    Our Organization
    Our Organization

    Micro Focus was acquired by Open Text Corporation (NASDAQ: OTEX), (TSX: OTEX) (“OpenText”) on 31 January 2023. OpenText is a world leader in Information Management (“IM”), enabling organizations to gain insight through market leading information management solutions, powered by OpenText Cloud Editions.

    With its headquarters in Waterloo, Canada, OpenText launched in 1991 originally as a project out of the University of Waterloo to create the first online version of the Oxford English Dictionary. OpenText has evolved over the years with the shifting digital landscape, acquiring companies and products along the way, and becoming a global leader in IM. For more information, please visit www.opentext.com.

    Our Supply Chain
    Our Supply Chain

    Micro Focus, now part of OpenText, is a software company operating in a manner and sector in which we consider our employees to be at low risk of modern slavery. Our business does not involve intensive manual labour and we do not operate any manufacturing facilities. Our supply chain broadly consists of contract and outsourced workers (mostly professional consultants), telephone-based support services, and suppliers of goods and other services for our offices, such as stationery suppliers, caterers, office cleaners and marketing merchandise. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships, and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to help ensure modern slavery does not take place anywhere in our business or supply chains.

    Our Principles and Governance
    Our Principles and Governance

    The following policies were in place at Micro Focus throughout FY22 to reduce the risk of modern slavery in our business and supply chains.

    Code of Conduct
    Code of Conduct

    Micro Focus' Code of Conduct outlines our commitment to observing the highest ethical standards to guide our business practices in several areas, including human rights. The Code of Conduct recognises that we must protect and respect human rights and work with our business partners and suppliers to do the same. It places the following obligations on employees to reduce the risk of modern slavery:

    • Ensure that slavery, servitude, child labour, prison or forced labour, human trafficking and physical punishment do not occur in any operation of Micro Focus or our suppliers and other business partners
    • Comply with the Micro Focus Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy
    • Respect the right of employees to organise in labour unions and collectively bargain in accordance with local laws and established practices
    • Speak up if employees are concerned about any possible violation of human rights at Micro Focus
    Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy
    Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy

    Micro Focus’ Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy confirms our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery. Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights and we are committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and approach to tackling modern slavery in our supply chain. Throughout FY22, the Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy applied to everyone working for or on behalf of Micro Focus in any capacity (including staff members, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third party representatives, and business partners) and encouraged employees to report any concerns immediately.

    Global Human Rights Policy
    Global Human Rights Policy

    Micro Focus’ Global Human Rights Policy recognises that respecting human rights is a core value at Micro Focus, embedded in the way we do business. Micro Focus requires compliance with relevant legislation as well as to uphold and respect human rights as reflected in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the UN Global Compact and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, amongst others. These standards include ensuring that the rights of women and minority groups are protected and that employees can exercise their right to freedom of expression. We expect our employees, agents, suppliers, and business partners to support and respect the protection of human rights in line with our own ethical values and apply the same high standards to all company operations, regardless of geographic location.

    Supplier Code of Conduct
    Supplier Code of Conduct

    Our relationships with our suppliers must be fully transparent, ethical and in line with the standards expected of our own employees. To this end, our Supplier Code of Conduct, implemented across the Micro Focus group worldwide, sets out the standards we require of our suppliers to reduce the risk of modern slavery. The Supplier Code of Conduct requires suppliers to comply with the Act, the commitments in this Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking statement, and the Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy in order to ensure that modern slavery does not take place in their business or supply chains. Suppliers are also required to make all necessary enquiries with their own suppliers and, to the extent reasonable, other parties in the supply chain.

    Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy
    Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy

    Micro Focus’ Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy requires our business to be conducted in an ethical, legal, and responsible manner, consistent with our zero-tolerance of slavery and human trafficking in all forms.

    Whistleblowing Policy
    Whistleblowing Policy

    Our Whistleblowing Policy encourages a culture of openness and transparency across the business so our staff and suppliers can speak up where they feel our people or customers are at risk, or where areas of wrongdoing have been identified or are suspected. For the purposes of the Whistleblowing Policy, “wrongdoing” includes endangering the health and safety of any individual, as well as anything that would breach the Code of Conduct and related policies. It explains how to raise a concern, including by staff speaking to their manager, their manager’s manager, or relevant head of department. Staff and suppliers can also contact the Legal Department or, if anonymity is preferred, use an independent telephone and web reporting service (currently http://www.microfocus.com/speakup)

    Risk Assessment and Due Diligence
    Risk Assessment and Due Diligence

    We remain committed to maintaining zero-tolerance of any form of modern slavery in our business or supply chains. We operate a risk-based approach which includes clearly informing our suppliers of our obligations under the Act and the ethical standards required of them.

    We review our supply chain practices, systems, and controls on an ongoing basis to identify, assess, and monitor potential risk areas and find ways to further mitigate the risk of modern slavery occurring. We include requests for information on modern slavery and our supply chains in our Requests for Proposals. Some of the practices and controls we have implemented include:

    • Including in Micro Focus' standard form purchase order terms express obligations upon suppliers to comply with all applicable anti-modern slavery laws and Micro Focus' Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement
    • Providing our suppliers with our policies on preventing modern slavery and requiring compliance in all parts of their business
    • Requiring suppliers to take all reasonable steps to ensure that modern slavery does not take place in their own supply chains
    • Requiring suppliers to immediately notify Micro Focus if they become aware of any such circumstances

    Everyone at Micro Focus is encouraged to remain mindful of any modern slavery risks that may face the company, and to report any concerns using the appropriate channels immediately.

    We aim to be a company with the highest level of ethical standards in how we treat our employees and do business with our partners, customers, and suppliers. In pursuit of this aim, we implement and enforce rigorous standards in our relationships with our suppliers, customers and partners and apply stringent due diligence requirements when entering any new association to prevent inappropriate, illegal, or corrupt behaviours or activities. For example, we screen prospective business partners to ensure that there are no red flags associated with the relevant partner from a compliance or modern slavery perspective.

    Training and Awareness-Raising
    Training and Awareness-Raising

    Information on the importance of avoiding modern slavery and Micro Focus’ policies and procedures in this area is included in the annual Code of Conduct training. The Code of Conduct training is mandatory for all employees and includes a test which all employees must pass to complete the training.

    Responsibility, Monitoring, and Reporting
    Responsibility, Monitoring, and Reporting

    To date, Micro Focus has not identified or received any reports that it has caused or contributed to slavery or human trafficking. Should any issues be identified in relation to slavery or human trafficking, we have appropriate processes in place throughout the company to enable remediation including our Whistleblowing Policy and whistleblowing telephone and web reporting service.

    We will continue to review the effectiveness of the steps we are taking to identify any potential risk areas and remain committed to improving our practices and procedures to combat slavery and human trafficking. To the best of our knowledge, slavery and human trafficking do not exist in our organization or our supply chain.

    This statement constitutes Micro Focus’ Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking statement for the financial year ended 31 October 2022. It was approved by the board of directors of Micro Focus International Limited on 27 June 2023.

INTRODUCTION: Before accessing the Marketplace or any Application, carefully read these Participation Terms which are in addition to the Micro Focus Website Terms of Use set forth at www.microfocus.com/about/legal ("Website Terms of Use"). To the extent there is any conflict between these Participation Terms and the Website Terms of Use, these Participation Terms shall control. The licensor of each Application (the "Application Provider") is either Micro Focus or a third-party licensor. The Application Provider licenses the Application to you, the original end user, either for free or for a charge, solely for your organization's internal purposes as set forth below and subject to the applicable end user license agreement. Your use of each Application that you download through the Marketplace is governed by the terms of the End User License Agreement specified by the Application Provider (the "EULA").

    Where Micro Focus is the Application Provider, the license to the Application is governed by the Micro Focus EULA found at www.microfocus.com/en-us/legal/software-licensing, effective beginning with your initial use of that Application. Please note that Micro Focus has authorized third parties to contribute Applications of such third parties to the Marketplace and the use of that third-party Application is governed by the terms and conditions specified by the third party rather than by the Micro Focus EULA.

    If you do not agree to these Participation Terms, you may not use, download from, or otherwise access the Marketplace. Using, downloading, or otherwise accessing any part of the Marketplace indicates that you accept these Participation Terms. You must be at least 13 (thirteen) years of age to use or access the Marketplace. If you are at least 13 but under the age of 18, you must have your parent or legal guardian's permission to use or access the marketplace.

    LIMITED ROLE OF MICRO FOCUS

    2. LIMITED ROLE OF MICRO FOCUS: Your agreement with each third-party Application Provider is a binding agreement between you and that Application Provider only. Such third party is solely responsible for the corresponding Application, the content therein, any warranties to the extent that such warranties have not been disclaimed, and any claims relating to that Application. You acknowledge that, except in situations where Micro Focus is the Application Provider, Micro Focus is not a party to the agreement between you and the Application Provider. Micro Focus is not responsible for any third-party Application, the content therein, or any warranties or claims that you or any other party may have relating to that Application. You further acknowledge and agree that, with respect to any Application for which Micro Focus is not the Application Provider, Micro Focus is a third-party beneficiary of the corresponding EULA and, in such capacity, has the right to enforce such EULA against you.

    PRICES AND TAXES

    3. PRICES AND TAXES: Prices will be as set out on the Marketplace at the time an order is submitted. Prices are exclusive of taxes, duties, and fees (including installation, shipping, and handling) unless otherwise quoted.

    INVOICES AND PAYMENT

    4. INVOICES AND PAYMENT: You agree to pay all invoiced amounts at the time of purchase. Micro Focus may suspend or cancel performance of open orders if You fail to make payments when due. All sales are final.

    RESTRICTIONS

    5. RESTRICTIONS: You agree that Micro Focus and/or third parties own all right, title and interest in and to the Marketplace as a whole and all Applications as to which Micro Focus is the Application Provider (including all patents, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property rights relating thereto). Each Application is licensed for use only for a single Micro Focus account, and you may not distribute or make the Application available over a network or for use with multiple devices. You may not modify or alter an Application or use it other than as expressly authorized by the corresponding EULA; provided that, if applicable law permits you to copy or modify the Application, then you may copy and modify the Application solely to the extent, and for such purposes as, expressly permitted by applicable law. You may not attempt to, or assist or encourage any other person or entity to circumvent, disable or modify any security technology or software that is part of the Application or specified by Micro Focus. Except as expressly authorized herein or in such EULA, all rights in the Applications are reserved by the Application Providers. You agree that you will not engage in any activity that interferes with or disrupts the Marketplace or services available through Applications you have downloaded. You further agree that you will not use any Applications you download to interfere with or otherwise disrupt any servers, networks, websites or services.

    MICRO FOCUS HAS THE RIGHT TO MODIFY, CHANGE OR TERMINATE YOUR USE OF THE MARKETPLACE OR APPLICATIONS FOUND IN THE MARKETPLACE

    6. MICRO FOCUS HAS THE RIGHT TO MODIFY, CHANGE OR TERMINATE YOUR USE OF THE MARKETPLACE OR APPLICATIONS FOUND IN THE MARKETPLACE: Micro Focus reserves the right, at its sole discretion and at any time, to add, remove, disable access to, block, or modify the Marketplace or to impose limits on the use of or access to certain features or portions of the Marketplace. In the event Micro Focus determines in good faith that it is appropriate to do so, due to changes in the obligations to, or restrictions imposed by, its third-party licensors or partners, an Application Provider's violation of its agreement with Micro Focus, or any governmental restriction or court order. Micro Focus may, without prior notice or liability to you, remove, disable access to, block, or modify remotely any Applications previously downloaded by you from the Marketplace. In such event, you may need to contact the Application Provider for further action or access.

    MICRO FOCUS HAS THE RIGHT TO MODIFY THESE TERMS

    CUSTOMER SERVICE

    8. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Support of an Application is solely as agreed by you and either (i) the applicable third-party Application Provider or (ii) Micro Focus in cases where it is the Application Provider.

    REVIEWS

    10. REVIEWS: Micro Focus, in its sole discretion, may permit users to post reviews of Applications on the Marketplace.

You agree that Micro Focus shall have no liability to you if you rely on the reviews to download or use an Application. Micro Focus reserves the right to, but has no obligation to, remove reviews that Micro Focus deems irrelevant or otherwise inappropriate for any reason. If you post a review, you hereby grant Micro Focus a perpetual, worldwide, fully transferable and sub-licensable, irrevocable, royalty-free license to make, use, sell, market, reproduce, create derivative works of, distribute, perform, and display the review in any manner and for any purpose. You acknowledge that your personally identifiable information may be associated with your review unless you post the review anonymously. If you post a review, you agree not to post, publish or transmit any material that: (i) is false or misleading; (ii) is defamatory; (iii) invades another's privacy; (iv) is obscene, pornographic, or offensive; (v) promotes bigotry, racism, hatred or harm against any individual or group; (vi) infringes on another's rights, including but not limited to any intellectual property rights; or (vii) violates, or encourages any conduct that would violate, any applicable law or regulation or would give rise to civil or criminal liability.

You may terminate it at any time by ceasing to use the Marketplace, provided that any terms relating to your use of each Application will survive unless and until you destroy all copies of such Application and related documentation.
