OUR ASSETS PROTECTING NIKE’S ASSETS IDEAS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY BOOKS AND RECORDS 26 28 29 Acting as Nike’s Safeguards Of course, when it comes to protecting Nike, nothing is more indispensable than our people. We’re also surrounded by other kinds of Nike assets every day. Take intellectual property for example. To get an idea of how valuable Nike’s IP is, just consider the sheer number of concepts, designs and plans that exist throughout our many buildings. Assets like these deserve our utmost protection. At the same time, physical and electronic assets are provided for you to do your job – be proactive in safeguarding them from loss, damage, theft and improper use. Above all, please be responsible and not wasteful with what we’ve been given. If you work in an office, nobody will complain if you drink an extra water from the team’s collection of snacks, but company funds, equipment and other physical assets are not to be appropriated for purely personal use. Not sure if a certain use of company assets is OK? Just ask your manager, Human Resources or the Ethics & Compliance Office . 25
