Corporate Self-Governance— Our Commitment to Integrity We at ATI are committed to a strong self-governance program. We have long-believed that honesty and integrity are vitally important to the success of our Company. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines have been approved by the Board of Directors and, along with the charters  of the Board committees, provide the framework for the governance of Allegheny Technologies. These guidelines reflect the Board’s commitment to monitor the effectiveness of decision making at the Board and management level, with a view to achieving ATI’s strategic objectives.The Guidelines are available on our website, www.alleghenytechnologies.com. Our Corporate Guidelines for Business Conduct and Ethics apply to all directors, officers and employees and set forth clear standards to guide the conduct of our daily affairs. Our commitment  is to reflect, in each of our actions, the highest level of integrity and ethics in our dealings with our Board of Directors, stockholders, fellow employees, customers, suppliers, creditors, government  agencies and authorities, and the public. Our self-governance efforts incorporate long-standing training programs that address a myriad of  subjects including antitrust, ethics, environmental compliance, export compliance and trading in  securities, as well as training in various human resources issues, including safety. In order to monitor the effectiveness of our compliance efforts, we consistently perform audits throughout the organization to confirm adherence to Company policies and procedures and  financial controls. We understand that confidence in our Company is in large measure dependent upon the reliability and transparency of our financial statements. Accordingly, our commitment to integrity in financial reporting recognizes our responsibility for providing timely information that fairly reflects our financial position and results of operations. We encourage employees to communicate concerns before they become problems. Our corporate ombudsman and the ethics officers at our operating companies provide confidential resources for employees to surface their concerns without fear of reprisal. Building and maintaining trust, respect and communication among our employees are essential to the effectiveness of our self-governance program. mee A en ey > ee
