United Kingdom Modern Slavery Act Statement for

2018 The United Kingdom Modern Slavery Act of

2015 requires certain businesses to disclose their efforts to address the issue of forced labor and human trafficking in their business operations and supply chains.

The law was designed to increase consumers' knowledge about products they buy and the companies they choose to support. Chevron's Modern Slavery, Human Trafficking and Broader Human Rights Commitments Chevron Energy Limited (and its affiliates Chevron Products UK Limited and Chevron North Sea Limited carrying on business in the UK) follows the principles and policies to protect against modern slavery, human trafficking and respect for human rights which have been adopted more broadly by Chevron Corporation. These commitments to respecting human rights are consistent with the spirit and intent of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights;

the International Labor Organization (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, and the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights. Commitment to respecting human rights wherever Chevron operates is embodied in The Chevron Way, and Chevron's Operational Excellence Management System, Business Conduct and Ethics Code, Human Rights Policy, and the Business Conduct and Ethics Expectations for Suppliers and Contractors. Guided by The Chevron Way, we conduct our business in a socially and environmentally responsible manner, respecting the law and universal human rights to benefit the communities where we work. The health and safety of the workforce and protection of communities and the environment is a key priority. The Chevron Way is also foundational to Chevron's Business Conduct and Ethics Code, which refers to the Human Rights Policy and outlines commitments to uphold ethical business practices, including in particular respect for labor rights. The Code applies to all employees, directors, officers, contractors and suppliers. Chevron's Human Rights Policy establishes expectations for managing human rights, including forced labor issues. The policy includes compliance requirements, guidance on training, processes and procedures, and tools. The policy is governed by a Chevron Corporation executive leadership body and involves oversight by the global board. Supplier Engagement We require contractors, suppliers and service providers to adhere to all applicable domestic laws and encourage them to conduct their business in a manner consistent with the Chevron Human Rights Policy and the ILO's core labor principles, including the elimination of forced and compulsory labor and the abolition of child labor. These expectations are communicated through a variety of channels, including relevant contracts and Chevron's Business Conduct and Ethics Expectations for Suppliers and Contractors. We expect our employees, suppliers and contractors to always adhere to the letter, spirit and intent of these expectations and values. Annually, Chevron also communicates with the executive leadership of its suppliers, selected based on third-party data and objective criteria for evaluating their human rights risk, reiterating the importance of respecting human rights. In 2017, Chevron sent letters to more than

850 suppliers around the world. Managing Supply Chain Risk Through the Contractor Health, Environment and Safety Management process, we work with suppliers to increase accountability and continually improve their performance. Major suppliers are selected for periodic audits based on a risk ranking determined by the nature of the work to be performed and responses to a questionnaire on supplier policies, processes and performance. The audits cover health, environmental and safety standards and compliance. Particular labor issues or concerns may be emphasized as part of this process, depending on the business location. Chevron's Operational Excellence Management System includes an Environmental, Social and Health Impact Assessment (ESHIA) process, which applies to capital projects within Chevron's operational control. The ESHIA process provides a systematic and risk-based approach to identifying, assessing and managing potentially significant impacts. The assessments can include potential impacts of our and our suppliers' activities on surrounding communities, natural resources, air quality, land and water, or community health and livelihoods. It incorporates human rights due diligence to help the company consider how to safeguard the rights and interests of potentially affected communities. Obtaining input from communities and partners is central to the ESHIA process and occurs throughout a project's life cycle. Where further assessment is needed, Chevron teams can conduct stand-alone Human Rights Impact Assessments (HRIA). Employees, suppliers and contractors may communicate workplace concerns to Chevron's Corporate Compliance Hotline (available
