COBC - Code of Business Conduct - Halliburton

Communications with the Public, Investors and the Media
Communications with Investors
We are committed to complying with applicable
regulations regarding the selective disclosure of
material nonpublic information. The Company
has authorized only a small group of individuals to
communicate information about the Company to the
investment community. Any requests for information
from investors, analysts or similar persons should
immediately be directed to Investor Relations.
Communications with the Public and the Media
Our communications with the public must be honest
and straightforward. Ethical Behavior is a core value
at Halliburton. To ensure that our communications
are always accurate and consistent, a limited number
of individuals within the Company are responsible
for communicating on our behalf. Only those
individuals with authority to speak publicly on the
Company’s behalf may do so. If you do not have
this authority and are approached by a member of
the public or the media, please refer them to your
supervisor or to Corporate Affairs as quickly as
possible.
The Internet
You should use the Internet responsibly at all times
regardless of whether your activities are for
personal or business use.
Never disclose confidential information, such as
customer information, or proprietary information,
such as trade secrets, learned through the course
of your work at the Company. Disclosure of such
information may result in disciplinary actions
including termination of employment.
Am I allowed to access the Internet for personal use while I am at work?
Your computer is a tool provided by the Company for you to do work on the Company’s behalf.
Likewise, the electronic network by which you send and receive emails and access the Internet is a
corporate asset meant to be used in conducting the Company’s business.
Though occasional and reasonable personal use of email and the Internet is permitted, you must
exercise good judgment in not abusing the privilege. You must avoid excessive personal use of the
Internet while at work. Additionally, accessing inappropriate content on the Internet using the
Company’s computers is prohibited.
