4 Our Vision: To be THE leading provider of innovative plastics, chemical and fertilizer solutions that create value for society

5 With our products and solutions we already help tackle global challenges Innovation without societal benefit is not innovation but rather simply gimmickry. Mark Garrett, Borealis Chief Executive Climate Water Energy Waste/Recycling Health Food 5

6 Many projects and activities contribute to Borealis sustainability Borealis commitment to Ethics and Responsible Care Investing in employee health & safety and wellbeing Promoting employee engagement and diversity Pursuing Operational Excellence and Goal Zero allows us to use resources more efficiently, prevent incidents etc. 6

7 Sustainability means finding the right balance between People, Planet and Profit Sustainability means that we assess both positive and negative consequences of our activities on People, Planet and Profit. Profit Based on this assessment we take responsible decisions. People Planet 7

8 Understanding what is the most sustainable choice is not always an easy task or? or? or? 8

9 Despite its great benefits, plastics and chemicals are often criticized. Our strategy, responds to these concerns. Circular Economy Energy & Climate Health & Safety Circular Economy Finite resources Emissions Process safety Chemicals safety Plastic waste Feedstock Olefins Polyolefins Converters Consumers Reduce Recycle Recover 9
