To support SanDisk's values and commitment to social
responsibility, we have provided two tools that can be accessed to
report violations of our Worldwide Code of Business Conduct and
Ethics: the Ethics Hotline and the EthicsPoint website. These tools
are available to SanDisk's employees, officers, directors,
contractors, and agents.
What are the SanDisk Ethics Hotline and the
EthicsPoint Website?
Both the Ethics Hotline and EthicsPoint website are simple,
risk-free ways for you to anonymously report actual or suspected
violations of SanDisk's Worldwide Code of Business Conduct. You can
call the Ethics Hotline toll-free, or access www.ethicspoint.com
from your home or office 24 hours a day, seven (7) days a
week.

Who should use the Ethics Hotline and EthicsPoint
Website?
If you have information regarding actual or suspected
violations of SanDisk's Worldwide Code of Business Conduct, your
first option is to report that information to your supervisor or a
member of management. If you're uncomfortable with this direct
approach, call the Ethics Hotline or access
www.ethicspoint.com.
Why are the Ethics Hotline and EthicsPoint.com
important to SanDisk?
SanDisk is committed to conducting business in accordance with
the highest ethical and legal standards. The SanDisk Ethics Hotline
and EthicsPoint website are an effective way to report actual or
suspected violations of the SanDisk's Worldwide Code of Business
Conduct.
Do I have to give my name?
No. You may give your name if you want, but you are not
required to identify yourself. All communications are handled by an
independent, third-party communications specialist who assigns your
call or Internet report a unique identification number that you can
refer to during any follow-up communications. The Ethics Hotline
and Ethicspoint website are staffed 24 hours a day, seven (7) days
a week for your convenience.
What happens when I make a call or visit the
website?
Once the communications specialist receives your report, an
investigation will be conducted and appropriate action will be
taken. To protect everyone involved, no disciplinary or legal
action will be taken based only on hotline or web-based reports.
Only substantiated findings will result in action. Remember, your
name is not required. Each case will be reported to the SanDisk
Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
What if I don't have all of the
facts?
Call the Ethics Hotline or access www.ethicspoint.com even if
you are not sure there is a problem. SanDisk will look into
information you do provide, attempt to verify it, and take
appropriate action.
