　　INTRODUCTION

　　TJX is fully committed to operating our business in accordance not merely with applicable law,

　　but also the highest standards of business ethics. We hold our vendors to these same high

　　standards.

　　We strongly value the relationships that we have developed with our suppliers -- relationships

　　that we believe have been a key factor in TJX’s success. These relationships have been built on a

　　foundation of honesty, trust and a commitment to ethical business practices. It is therefore

　　important that our suppliers respect the laws and the cultures of the communities in which they

　　operate. Our suppliers must also respect the rights of the workers who manufacture products for

　　sale in TJX stores. TJX expects its suppliers to act responsibly and to do their best to ensure that

　　no abusive, exploitative or illegal conditions exist at their workplaces. TJX requires that

　　suppliers act in accordance with all applicable laws, as well as the accompanying TJX Vendor

　　Code of Conduct (“Code”). Where local or industry practices exceed the requirements of the

　　Code, the Code provides that the higher standard applies.

　　TJX has selected both Cal Safety Compliance Corp. (CSCC) and Intertek as its third-party

　　compliance monitors (“auditors”) to conduct inspections and verifications of manufacturing

　　facilities where TJX products are made. We require that all suppliers cooperate with the auditors

　　by providing verification that allows the auditors and/or TJX representatives to inspect its

　　facilities to ensure compliance with the Code. TJX’s Code applies to each purchase order

　　submitted to our suppliers. The information that the auditors gather will be made available to

　　factory management, vendor management, agent management, and TJX management, and will be

　　the basis for which improvements will be made.

　　The purpose of this document is to inform our suppliers of the mechanics of the compliance

　　program, and to allow them the opportunity to assess their practices and make improvements

　　prior to inspection.

　　Suppliers are expected to ensure that all factories meet TJX’s social compliance standards.

　　Suppliers must agree to take necessary correction actions and promptly remediate any noncompliance

　　in order to remain business partners with TJX.

　　ABOUT CSCC AND INTERTEK
