OurApproachat Salesforce It has been a journey to get to where Salesforce is today, and there is still much work ahead. Looking back on how we got here can help other companies in developing their ownadvocacy approaches. Where westarted: Initially, our policy engagements were limited and focused on the topics mostrelevantto our own emissions footprint like electricity grid emissions. We were often reactive to policies as they were introduced and focusedon light-touch engagements like group sign-on letters or relying on responses from our industry coalition partners like Ceres and Advanced Energy Economy to represent our position. Where weare today: Over the past three years, we’ve grown the partnership between our Government Affairs and Sustainability teams, expanding our reach and deepening our impact. We did this by investing in our working relationship: taking the time to understand each other's priorities, increasing trust, and developing a process to help us work effectively together. This removed unnecessary - and unknown - points of friction, enabling us to better leverage the expertise of both teams to identify strategic actions to advance our policy priorities. This great partnership also unlocked additional opportunities, allowing us to expand into new issues, engagement channels, and geographies. In 2021, we added climate to our corporate public policy platform, joining other initiatives like security, privacy, and equality. As part of this exciting step, we shared our Global Climate Policy Principles to disclose how we’re approaching our climate policy work. We’ve enhanced our Salesforce-led engagements through increased direct advocacy to lawmakers, op-eds, andpublic position statements. We started to expand our advocacy beyond theUnitedStates into Europe and parts of Asia-Pacific and Latin America. And, we’re investing in building new coalitions to help other companies join us on this journey. What’s next: As we look ahead, we recognize there is always more work to be done. We will continue to build our climate policy programs where they exist today to ensure we have a robust presence in each of the regions we advocate in. We will also continue to expand our engagements to new geographies, particularly where our employee and emissions footprints are greatest. By increasing our proactive engagements with lawmakers and regulators and finding key moments to step out as a leader, we strive to deliver impact at the critical moments. Through it all, we will transparently share our work andcall on others to join us because we know we are stronger together. 5 | Salesforce.com/sustainability
