1 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ( CSR ) POLICY INDIA 1. PREAMBLE BT Group chooses to invest a portion of our profits before tax each year (usually 1%) to support our strategy to be a responsible and sustainable business leader (our Investment in Society budget). We do this through a mixture of cash, time volunteered and in-kind contributions. This policy reflects our commitment to ethical business through the appropriate and transparent use of this budget. We carry out all CSR initiatives transparently, with use of our Investment in Society budget agreed and managed in line with BT s Anti-Corruption and bribery policy, Charitable Donations and Sponsorships policy and the principles and behaviours set out in The Way We Work. As a result of this approach, BT has for a number of years invested in some CSR projects in India which have been funded by the Group Investment in Society budget in particular Katha, the Hope Foundation and St. Crispin s. Keeping in view the new legal requirements in India which came into effect from 1 st April, 2014, a new governance and funding model for CSR activities is being put in place to ensure we remain compliant, whilst remaining aligned to Group strategy. 2. CSR IN INDIA - Summary of Companies Act, 2013 relating to CSR The new Act together with the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules ): Requires qualifying BT entities in India to invest 2% of its annual Net Profits Before Tax ( PBT ) during the three immediately preceding financial years in CSR activities annually puts a formal and greater responsibility to set out clear framework and process to ensure strict compliance The changes have introduced the concept of CSR to the forefront and through Comply-or-explain mandate it requires the qualifying companies to constitute the CSR Committee to effectively monitor CSR activities of the company in line with the activities specified in Schedule VII of the Act. Each company is required to have constituted a transparent governance structure to oversee the implementation of our CSR Policy, in compliance with the requirements of Section 135 of the Act. Further details of the key elements of the new laws are in Annex A 1

5 Annex A Overview of The Act The Act mandates companies meeting the qualification criteria to allocate 2% of its annual net profits (before tax) during the three immediately preceding financial years to be spent on CSR activities. 1. Net Profit means profit more fully described under Rule 2(f) of the Rules. The CSR expenditure shall include all expenditure including contribution to corpus or on projects or programs relating to CSR activities approved by the Board of Directors on the recommendation of its CSR Committee but does not include any expenditure on an item not in conformity or not in line with activities stated under Schedule VII of the Act. 2. In case the Company fails to spend the above targeted amount in that particular financial year, the Committee shall submit a report in writing to the Board of Directors specifying the reasons for not spending the amount which in turn shall be reported by the Board of Directors in their Directors Report for that particular Financial Year. Surplus arising out of the CSR initiatives shall not form part of the business profits of the Company. 3. In line with Schedule VII of the Act and the CSR Rules, the Company shall undertake CSR activities included in its Annual CSR Plan, as recommended by the CSR Committee at the beginning of each year. The Committee is authorized to approve any modification to the existing Annual CSR Plan or to propose any new program during the financial year under review. 4. Disqualifying Activities for CSR - The Rules prohibit the CSR projects and programs that are implemented by the Company for benefit of the employees of the Company and their families. The CSR activities implemented outside India also fall outside the purview of the Rules and hence CSR expenditure on such activities will not be considered for inclusion in the CSR Report. Any amount directly or indirectly contributed towards any political party under Section 182 of the Act shall not be considered as CSR Spend. Activities that are undertaken by the Company in pursuance of its normal course of business will not be considered as CSR activities. 5. The companies are required to give preference to the local area and areas around where it operates. The projects to be proposed should be in line with the the list of activities outlined under Schedule VII of the act which are as follows: Eradicating hunger, poverty and malnutrition, promoting preventive health care and sanitation and making available safe drinking water; Promoting education, including special education & employment, enhancing vocational skills especially among children, women, elderly, and the differently abled and livelihood enhancement projects; Promoting gender equality, women empowerment, setting up homes and hostels for women and orphans, setting up old age homes, day care centers 5

8 Annex C Better Future Guidelines for CSR and Sustainability Projects At the request of BT Group s Committee for Sustainable and Responsible Business, the pan-bt Better Future programme was in part established to ensure BT develops a much more focused portfolio of CSR and sustainability initiatives. The general principles are: Fewer initiatives, and focus on those that deliver on a scale basis Maintain strong due diligence when assessing partnerships with NGOs/Charities, since the company s reputation is at stake Focus on initiatives which support our 3 priorities: o Connected Society digital inclusion and internet safety o Net Good helping society live within the constraints of the planet through the application of ICT o Improving Lives supporting charities by using our ICT and people assets (e.g. fundraising) Focus on initiatives which maximise the shared value potential. By this we mean there should be a strong environmental/social benefit, but also a commercial benefit for BT (e.g. revenue potential, brand enhancing). Initiatives which create a good opportunity for employee engagement (e.g. through volunteering) Initiatives which have the potential for strong external stakeholder engagement, both in the local region, but potentially to showcase BT to stakeholders globally A recognition that there some occasions where a more straightforward philanthropic donation/approach from BT is still appropriate, but seeking to keep these to a minimum. At a BT Group-level our Investment in Society which we report externally - is achieved through a variety of ways: In-kind donations for example through employee volunteering or a donation/loan of BT assets to not-for-profit organisations. Charitable cash donations. Programmes which deliver social and/or environmental benefits for example our digital inclusion programmes in the UK which are typically carried out in partnership with a not-for-profit organisation(s) and local authorities. Thought leadership, research and expert consultancy which furthers understanding of material issues affecting society and the environment and the role BT can play. Early concept evaluation or funding of a commercial proposition where it has the potential to make a significant social or environmental contribution. For BT India the situation is different in that we need to focus on cash invested, and the guidelines for appropriate investment (Annex A) are different. By having a member of the BT Better Future team sitting on the BT India CSR Board we plan to advise and support the BT India team in staying aligned to the Better Future strategy as far as possible, whilst recognising the need to complying with the new laws. 8
