Vertrauliche Ethik-Hotline

IPG has adopted the Whistleblower Policy because IPG is serious about preventing, and should they occur, identifying and remediating, instances of corporate wrong doing within the Company. The practices covered by the Whistleblower Policy include violations of the United States federal securities laws, Canadian federal securities laws and other laws to which the Company is subject, and improprieties and fraudulent acts relating to the Company’s business practices, including its corporate disclosure and reporting, financial statements, accounting systems and internal controls, as well as violations of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Anyone may report violations and submit complaints and obtain information, advice and suggestions confidentially and anonymously by phone or web provided by an independent third-party service provider. Confidentiality will be maintained to the fullest extent possible and information will only be shared on a “need-to-know” basis, consistent with the need to conduct an adequate review.

Phone: The IPG Business Conduct and Ethics Hotline can be reached by calling (855) 446-9023.

When you submit a report online, you may also choose to remain anonymous. https://itape.ethicspoint.com
