INTRODUCTION The development of vegan consumption is the result of global awareness. It is born out by human conviction that

veganism is progress for animal rights, a source of benefits for the planet and progress for human society. This is

reflected in significant growth in the market shares of products declared "vegetarian", "vegan", and even "organic

and vegan" in Europe and worldwide. Research and innovation in this field stem from different human motivations

that mix ethics, health and ecology.

In the present referential, as in animalist literature in general, "products of animal origin" or "products derived from

the exploitation of animals" means products derived from animal breeding, slaughter, hunting and fishing.

Reminder on definitions :

Vegetarian : person who excludes, as far as possible in practice, animal flesh (meat and fish) from his diet.

Vegan : person who excludes, as far as possible in practice, any product of animal origin (diet without meat, fish,

eggs, dairy products, honey, etc.) and adopts a way of life respectful of animals (clothing, cosmetics, leisure...)

Vegan (the product) : Product free of any substance of animal origin, which has not used technical agents of

animal origin and has not been tested in any way on them.

Speciesism : discrimination in favor of one species, usually the human species, over another, especially in the

exploitation or mistreatment of animals by humans.

Sentience : ability to feel, to experience pain or pleasure, to have subjective experiences.

THE MORAL APPROACH TO VEGANISM

The moral approach of veganism is to consider that all sentient beings, human and non-human, have the

fundamental right to physical freedom and justice. This right includes the prohibition of slavery, arbitrary detention

and arbitrary slaughter, torture, and degrading punishment practices. Recognition of this fundamental right alone

means abolishing, not merely regulating, institutionalized exploitation of animals. Veganism does not have to

support reformist campaigns or targeted campaigns.

The vegan moral approach links the status of animals to sentience alone and to no other cognitive characteristic.

Thus, just like the moral rejection of racism, sexism, age discrimination or homophobia, veganism rejects

speciesism. The species to which a sentient being belongs is not a reason to deny him the protection offered by his

fundamental rights, any more than race, sex, age or sexual orientation are reasons to exclude other humans from

the moral community. Veganism, the moral and fundamental imperative of non-violence and justice, must be

considered as a fundamental principle of the Animal Rights movement. Creative, positive and non-violent education

in respect for animals must form the very basis of this movement.

IN SUMMARY

Veganism aims to fight speciesism in all its forms by opposing discrimination and violence against animals. This

refusal is expressed on a daily basis, as much as possible, through a vegan food choice and a vegan lifestyle.

Veganism is said to be "extended" to the perimeter of its fundamental principles alone, perhaps, for example:

• Vegan and organic farming (without livestock),

• Search for a low ecological footprint,

• Formulation respectful of human health,

• Respect for social standards and fair trade,

• Any other progress in favour of respect for human beings and living beings.

THE E.V.E COMPLIANCE OFFICE

EXPERTISE VEGANE EUROPE (E.V.E) aims to control and label vegan products but also to defend and define

vegan compliance among the general public.

Through its commitments, E.V.E makes possible to respond to the absence of legal regulation, to ensure greater

transparency and better guarantees for consumers, to allow fair competition between companies and to ensure

better protection of the terms used to identify vegan products.

To ensure this mission, E.V.E. develops human and technical resources to ensure an independent labelling service

that complies with international standards. It also sets up means of communication for the benefit of labelled

products. All E.V.E. shares promote diversification of supply, transparency, innovation and accessibility of vegan

products for all.

By creating its own Compliance Referential, E.V.E. seeks to build the regulatory framework that the future needs

to move forward:

- regulatory benchmarks for manufacturers, distributors and consumers.

- define the rules for the use of terms used to identify vegan products.

- ensure the reliability of the products and their regular control.

E.V.E. also allows its referential to remain scalable in order to continually comply with current regulations and face

industrial constraints related to vegan compliance. Readers are encouraged to always check if an update is

available when using this document (see update date on the introduction page).

Finally, the appraisal office wishes to gain the trust of professionals, consumers and players in the sector in order

to become a recognised reference in vegan quality in Europe but also throughout the world.

E.V.E. is an initiative created by the association VEGAN FRANCE INTERPRO which gathers consumers, activists

and companies whose objective is to support the economic development of vegan alternatives and a more

responsible consumption towards animals. More information on http://www.vegan-france.fr

COMPLIANCE REFERENTIAL

This reference framework is an appropriate normative instrument because it imposes clear and detailed rules which

leave operators no possibility of divergent transposition. These guidelines are intended to provide good

manufacturing and communication practices for manufacturers, companies and consumers.

This standard was developed in collaboration with consumers, food professionals, industrial engineering

professionals, animal associations and health professionals interested in protecting the reputation of vegan

products. This standard applies without prejudice to the Community provisions governing the manufacture,

inspection, packaging, placing on the market, labelling, importation and distribution of consumer products.

Vegan certification is currently voluntary. To date, there are no "official" European or international regulations

defining vegan quality, just as there is no "high authority" for veganism. The labeling of vegan products is a service

offered by independent associative organizations mainly based in Europe, the United States, or Japan. These

bodies, based on their long-standing commitment and public reputation, are the only credible experts in a position

to rule on the compliance of vegan products.

The present referential is the private property of E.V.E. Any complete or partial reproduction not authorized by its

rightful claimants is strictly prohibited.

2.B – COMPLIANCE LEVELS

The provisions of the EVE VEGAN label applied to processed products, services and agricultural products make it

possible to establish differents levels of conformity in the form of an annex code displayed on the products, generally

under the logo. This is intended to help inform consumers about vegan quality and traceability :

EVE VEGAN 01 code Formulation, manufacturing, packaging.

EVE VEGAN 02 code

Farming method + formulation, manufacture, packaging. (95% minimum of ingredients from BIOCYCLIC VEGAN STANDARD)

EVE VEGAN 03 code Approved service.

2.C - CLASSIFICATION OF CONDITIONS OF CONFORMITY

Vegan products are generally food products, however they can also be cosmetic or textile type.

2.C.1. COMPARISON WITH TRADITIONNAL PRODUCTS

Traditional product :

Formulation, manufacture, packaging involving ingredients of animal origin. Product and ingredients tested on

animals.

Vegan product :

Formulation, manufacture, packaging without ingredients of animal origin. Product and ingredients not tested on

animals. Additional possibility that the raw materials come from vegan agriculture.

2.C.2. PRODUCTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR LABEL

EVE VEGAN label is really relevant and useful if it applies to product categories which traditionally use products of

animal origin.

In order to protect its use, E.V.E. is able to refuse registration for some kinds of products. The low relevance of

representing a real vegan alternative represents an abuse of language, or a source of confusion for the consumer.

Rejected products will receive a reasoned response. For example, these products are not eligible :

- Fruits, vegetables, tea, herbs, virgin oils ans spices not from certified vegan farming.

- Salt.

- Bottle of water.

- Kitchen tools.

2.C.3. CLASSIFICATION OF SELECTED ANIMAL CATEGORIES

There is a margin of interpretation according to the different currents of thought concerning the belonging of certain

living organisms to the domain of "animals" and "sentience". The present Compliancce Referential sets out the

qualities chosen and motivated by E. V. E. according to the prerequisites recognised by the international vegan

community.

The term "animal" refers to the entire animal kingdom, which includes all vertebrates (non-human) and multicellular

invertebrates (except bacteria). The categories selected are :

A – Terrestrial mammals

B – Aquatic mammals

C - Birds

D - Reptiles

E – Fish, amphibians and octopods

F - Crustaceans

G - Molluscs

H - Insects

I – Marine organisms (Sponge, coral, zooplankton)

J – Different stage of evolution (larval forms and embryonic forms)

Living beings invisible to the naked eye and not naturally prehensile by the human hand are not concerned by this

classification in the sense that they are not the object of manifest human exploitation for everyday consumer

products and/or their presence is neither voluntary nor linked to speciesism.




Page | 8

E.V.E. is open to debates concerning the classification of animal categories adopted by the present standard in

order to always take into account the evolution of public opinion and to always invest in the search for sustainable,

responsible and compassionate consumption. We are attentive to any fundamental omissions or useful comments

that would strengthen this document.

2.C.4. CLASSIFICATION OR COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS

In relation to the control and traceability possibilities at its disposal, E.V.E. has defined a classification of compliance

conditions. Any product labelled E.V.E. VEGAN must meet the following requirements:

A - Formulation :

Product free of any substance of animal origin.

B - Production :

Manufacturing, processing that did not involve technical agents of animal origin.

C – Cross-contamination :

Product that has been prepared, transported, cleaned or stored using facilities or instruments that have not been in

contact with products of animal origin.

D – Animal testing :

Product not tested on animals

E - Packaging :

Packaging of the product (primary and secondary) free of any substance of animal origin.

F - Distribution :

The conditions of transport of the product exempt animal traction.

Export prohibited to countries that require testing of the product on animals for market entry.

G - Other E.V.E. conditions

The product optionnaly complies with the list of optional E.V.E conditions.

2.C.5. OPTIONAL CONDITIONS

In relation to the extended principles of veganism, E.V.E. has defined a classification of additional and optional

compliance conditions. Although strongly encouraged, these principles cannot be reasonably imposed and depend

on the will and personal commitment of the operator.

H – Vegan farming

Product from certified organic and vegan agriculture.

I – Fair trade

Fair trade ingredients, respect for social standards, decent working conditions for human beings compatible with

dignity and personal fulfilment.

J - Respect of human health

Formulation respectful of human health (natural substances, free of endocrine disruptors and carcinogens.).

K – Eco-responsible

Eco-responsible design (waste reduction, recycling.).

3. COMPLIANCE RULES Here are in detail the rules and good practices related to the application of the E.V.E. compliance conditions.

3.A – RULES ON INGREDIENTS

3.A.1. INGREDIENTS OF ANIMAL ORIGIN

Ingredients of animal origin, as classified in chapter 3, are prohibited. The list of examples concerned is available

in the External Appendix.

3.A.2. OTHER INGREDIENTS

Vegetable, mineral or synthetic substances from plants or hydrocarbons are acceptable.

As regards enzymes, yeasts, fungi, bacteria, microbiologically fermented substances are acceptable as long as

their origin is vegetable and as long as their method of production does not require substances from the slaughter

of animals (culture on cow's milk, meat broth, etc.).

3.B – RULES ON TRANSFORMATION PROCESSES

Physically processed or chemically processed ingredients are permitted provided that their reagents are not

prohibited substances. Ingredients derived from biotechnological processes such as bacterial action and enzymes

must be guaranteed not derived from animal substances.

3.C – RULES ON PACKAGING

The packaging of the finished product, primary or secondary, must not contain animal materials (leather, silk, fur,

etc.), animal adhesives (casein, pig glue, processed fatty acids, etc.) or labelling or packaging that may involve

such substances. The inks used for graphic printing can be of vegetable, mineral and/or synthetic origin. Plastic

materials may also be concerned, such as semi-soft or hard moulded objects (animal fat used as a moulding agent).

3.D – PRODUCTION RULES

Monitoring contractual commitments and product compliance with E.V.E. label criteria. VEGAN remain the sole

responsibility of the operator outside the E.V.E. audit and inspection operations. The office nevertheless remains

available to provide any informal assistance and accompany this commitment over the long term.

Operators are not prohibited from creating and selling non-vegan or non-conforming products in parallel with

labelled products. The labelling procedure applies to products and not to the company's entire activity. E.V.E.

believes that consumers are free to choose whether or not to buy, support or not, companies that continue to sell

animal products in parallel with their vegan products.

This approach is common to all vegan food labels and aims to support the transition and transformation from non-

vegan to totally vegan activities and accelerate the development and accessibility of alternatives.




Page | 10

3.D.1. GOOD PRODUCTION PRACTICES

In order to clarify responsibilities, each product should have a responsible person associated with it.

Before any formula is labelled, it is referenced and checked by E.V.E.

It is not mandatory that the raw materials used are themselves previously labelled by an official body or by E.V.E.

The prior verification by E.V.E., on the basis of the documentation provided, is sufficient to accept or validate an

ingredient.

The optimization of a referenced formula is possible. If the ingredients used by products already labelled must be

modified, then this change must be notified and registered with E.V.E. to verify that compliance is still assured and

to verify whether new supporting documents need to be issued.

The operator applies hygiene and cross-contamination control and monitoring procedures to both ingredients and

finished products in accordance with the charters for which he is authorised. The production operator must distribute

to his technical agents a guide containing the technical parameters to be respected (E.V.E. compliance conditions)

and the health safety rules (cleaning-disinfection protocol, recording of operations, etc.).

The operator's suppliers must be informed of the operator's vegan compliance objective so that they themselves

ensure that they provide the required quality and the necessary traceability documents.

The selection of ingredients for labelled products must make it possible to avoid any prohibited added substances

in the form of additives, technical agents or preservatives.

Each operator keeps an up-to-date production register and a batch record on which he records all the events that

have occurred and the interventions carried out. This document makes it possible to ensure the recording of all the

operations carried out and to control the correct application of the specifications of the present Compliance

Referential.

Operators' traceability procedures must enable all links in the chain, from supplier to consumer, to know the history

of labelled products, from the selection of ingredients to marketing to the final consumer. Each operator must

therefore set up the necessary traceability system (up and down) including at least the information defined below:

-The procedures for identifying ingredients and products at the different stages,

-The associated documents allowing to find the traced information and the information contained in each document,

-The measures taken to ensure the continuity of traceability, without interruption, between the various stages (links

between identifiers).

The required information can be reproduced in plain text or codified. In all cases, they must allow the identification

of products to be easily traced and must not lead to a break in information between two stages. All this data is

archived at each stage by the operator concerned for a minimum period of 5 years.

The delivery notes for the ingredients contain unique references enabling the supplier to find the formula used and

possibly check compliance at any time.

For more information, E.V.E. provides certified operators with detailed documents that enable them to understand

and control the risks associated with the manufacture of certified products.

3.D.2. GOOD CROSS-CONTAMINATION PRACTICES

The adventitious presence of major allergens (unintentional contamination by contact with other products

on the production line, during storage or transport) is not impossible. Consequently, the operator must assess




Page | 11

the risks of contamination and make every effort to reduce them. Labelling of the type "manufactured in a workshop

that uses..." remains permitted but should only be used as a last resort if the risk of contamination cannot be

controlled in accordance with allergen regulations.

Position of European Vegetarian Union : The validity of a claim that a food is said to be "vegan" cannot be

challenged by the unintentional presence in the food of products that do not meet its definition to the extent that

such presence is technically unavoidable at all stages of production, processing and distribution, despite appropriate

precautions taken in accordance with good manufacturing practice.

The E.V.E. expert office, in accordance with the position of the European Vegetarian Union, considers that cross-

contamination, after evaluation and validation of the production conditions by E.V.E., remains fortuitous, rare, in

trace amounts and minimized to its maximum by the operator, and therefore does not affect the validity of the claim.

The production operations of E. V. E. E. labelled products must be separated, in space or time, from the production

operations of unlabelled products in order to minimise any contamination or confusion with prohibited substances.

Any building and space intended for the manufacture of labelled products must be organised in such a way as to

limit cross-contamination with non-compliant products and ingredients. The procedures to be applied are similar to

the good practices given by the regulations related to allergens (gluten, egg, milk...).

To ensure good management of contaminants, it is recommended to include rooms and buildings dedicated to the

label and others to non-conforming productions. However, this provision is not an obligation. There are no rules of

arrangement except that of an arrangement facilitating cross-contamination management, maintenance and

cleaning, disinfection of buildings and equipment for the respect of quality requirements. The purpose of EVE audits

and inspections is to validate the methods applied, in which case corrective actions and improvements will be

proposed.

It is also strongly recommended to reserve a complete set of materials for labelled products in order to limit the

possibility of contamination. However, as this provision is not an obligation, the production equipment must be

completely and properly cleaned in order to avoid any contamination between labelled products and non-compliant

products. Installations used for "lubrication" with animal fats must be checked and/or replaced.

3.D.3. GOOD CLEANING PRACTICES

Appropriate, complete and sufficient cleaning and disinfection measures must be taken to prevent any contact,

including working utensils and machinery (filtration, chemistry, containers, etc.), between compliant and non-

compliant products. The machines must be washed thoroughly between two production cycles. It is strongly

recommended to acquire a set of utensils dedicated to vegan preparations.

3.D.4. GOOD TRANSPORT PRACTICES

Storage and transport conditions must ensure full traceability of products and raw materials in order to avoid any

risk of contamination, confusion or mixing with prohibited substances. Thus, the transport of products labelled by

E.V.E. at the same time as the transport of non-compliant products is authorised as long as separation (confusion

prevention) and physical protection (contamination prevention) measures are organised and respected.

The type of transport used when dispatching finished products must exclude animal traction (vehicle pulled by

animals), regardless of the country of destination, from its place of departure to its place of delivery. These

conditions apply as long as the company remains at the initiative of the modes of transport used or by parties over

which it exercises effective control.

E.V.E. encourages operators to adopt responsible means of transport, to act for a reduced environmental impact.




Page | 12

3.D.5. GOOD PRACTICES FOR PEST-CONTROL

The possible presence of so-called "pest" animals (the term used here to represent the company's point of view

and potential threats to the integrity of production) in the production area is not related to speciesism or animal

exploitation activities at the company's initiative. This requirement cannot therefore be reasonably subject to

mandatory criteria by E.V.E. However, E.V.E. communicates on the vegan approach applied to this issue.

Pest disposal processes that pose a threat to the integrity of ingredients or hygiene in the production environment

should be governed by principles of replacement and avoidance with the objective of ensuring product reliability

while applying a compassionate approach to animal management.

Avoidance: Block pest access to the production site.

Replacement: Apply alternatives to killing where possible.

Reduction: Minimize trapping time, pain, stress.

First and foremost, pest trapping must favour methods that do not cause injury, limiting to the maximum the duration

of the trapping and the release of the pest in an environment adapted to its survival. The operator must above all

take all necessary measures to limit as far as possible the access of pests to the production site and limit trapping

and the possibility of killing. Where all alternatives for the survival and release of pests have been tested and found

to be ineffective in protecting production, elimination measures causing the least pain and the quickest possible

death should be preferred. These measures should ensure pest management with priority given to avoidance,

replacement and reduction.

3.E – RULES FOR APPROVED SERVICES

EVE VEGAN approved services are willing to manufacture, use or sell food products, cosmetic products, hygiene products, textile products. Whatever the product intended for sale, it must necessarily report:

- An exclusively vegan formulation* ; - A formula not tested on live animals* ; - Monitoring for cross-contamination with non-compliant raw materials ; * Priority with an E.V.E. certificate or other recognized label involving these criteria. Failing this, the manager ensures the product's commitments thanks to his investigation skills and the support of an E.V.E. expert.

3.E.1. GOOD PRODUCTION PRACTICES

Good production practices for EVE VEGAN approved services are the same rules as for operators, see paragraph

3.D "Production rules" above.

3.E.2. GENERAL PRESCRIPTIONS

The manager of the approved service and his potential interveners establish a relationship of trust and listening with his customers, they respect the intimacy of the individuals and their families, their culture, their choice of life, their private space and the confidentiality of the received information. The manager guarantees the beneficiaries with whom he intervenes the exercise of individual rights and freedoms.

The requirements of these Compliance Standards constitute qualitative references that the approved service manager implements according to his own organisational choices. The manager meets the present specifications,




Page | 13

either by assuming with his own means the entire service, or by associating with other approved or compatible structures to achieve it.

The manager has the responsibility to define and implement the procedures for organising, supervising and coordinating the interventions to ensure a quality service, to maintain it over time and to justify its effectiveness within the framework of the controls and procedures provided for this purpose by EVE. Like operators, approved services are subject to random checks within the limit of two unannounced inspections per contract period.

3.E.3. GOOD SERVICE PRACTICES

The authorised service manager has his own or shared premises that are clean, pleasant and adapted to the reception of his clients. It offers a physical and telephone reception consistent with his service offer.

The manager provides the public with up-to-date, complete and precise written documentation on his service offer, his method of intervention (service, mandate, provision), the prices for the main services proposed, the amount of any additional costs (application fees, management fees, etc.) and the steps to be taken as well as the possible recourse in cas of dispute. They must be posted in public reception areas. This information must be clear and expressed in a unit of value adapted to the nature of the service (hour, day, week, month or package).

Every subscription and every service leeds to the establishment of a written contract. A copy is given to the customer and specifies the duration, the frequency, the type, the price of the service. The invoice shows a precise statement of consumption in case of subscription. In all cases, the formalization of the client's agreement on the proposed service and its terms is necessary. This agreement is obtained as part of the contract before the intervention, except in cases of proven emergency. The manager establishes a clear and detailed invoicing and an annual tax certificate, in accordance with the labour code of his country.

To carry out his missions, the manager must ensure that he has the skills to guarantee the quality of the service rendered, thus ensuring, personally or with employees, the following four functions : monitoring EVE quality, training staff, handling complaints and continuous improvement.

The manager must honour orders and meet announced deadlines thanks to an efficient internal organization. If he has employees, the manager checks the aptitudes of the candidates to exercise the jobs offered, he organizes for this purpose the recruitment process. Employees are supported and accompanied in their professional practice by various means such as training, practice exchange meetings, individual interviews.

The manager carries out internal controls at least once a year on the application of these EVE Compliance Referential. These controls cover especially the implementation of the quality charter and the training of its employees.

The manager organises the handling of complaints, keeps their history up to date and manages any conflicts between his staff and clients. At least once a year, the manager conducts a survey of beneficiaries on their perception of the quality of interventions.

The manager strives to respect the environment by opting for eco-responsible behaviour and actions. The manager

ensures compliance with the regulatory and legal requirements of his profession and activity field.

3.F – CONTROL AND AUDIT RULES

3.F.1. COMPLIANCE WITH CURRENT REGULATION

All operators and managers must comply with the regulations in force in the country where they produce and/or

distribute their products. It must also justify compliance with the specific regulations applicable to the types of




Page | 14

products manufactured (food, cosmetics, clothing, detergents, etc.). All substances used must comply with

developments in the relevant legislation.

It is the responsibility of the operator or manager to notify E.V.E. in the event that the regulations on which it depends

disagree with these Compliance Referential.

3.F.2. QUALITY AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The operator and the manager are responsible for the continuous verification of product conformity outside the

E.V.E. control and audit operations. If the verifications leave a lot or the origin of an ingredient in doubt, the latter

must ensure that it is used only after any suspicion of non-compliance has been eliminated.

The operator must ensure that invoices, delivery notes, labelling and valid certificates are checked at all times when

exchanging with suppliers and distributors in order to always guarantee vegan compliance. Any labelling gives

E.V.E. a right of access, within the limit of three inspections per contractual period, of surveillance and/or samples

for laboratory analysis.

The operator must keep available the documents enabling the E. V. E. inspectors to check traceability and to

validate the full conformity of the products at any time (accounts, acceptance reports, production reports, stock

management reports, exact composition of the products manufactured, dated production operations, cleaning and

disinfection operations, laboratory analyses, communication documents, etc.).

Ideally, and in line with the size of production, a sample of each batch of finished product or raw material should

ideally be kept for the lifetime of the labelled product, in sufficient quantity to carry out compliance tests at all times.

3.F.3. PENALTIES FOR NON-COMPLIANCE

The inspection by E.V.E. to demonstrate the non-conformity of a product leads to the suspension of the validity of

the certificates issued and the implementation of administrative procedures and formal notices.

The authorization to use the E.V.E. trademark and certificates of conformity may be revoked if the following

conditions are met :

- serious non-compliance during an inspection organised by E.V.E. ;

- serious non-compliance during analysis of a sample taken byE.V.E. ;

- serious non-compliance with the rules of the E.V.E. graphic charter. ;

Any serious non-compliance shall be subject to the following sanctions, without prejudice to any civil or criminal

proceedings that may be brought:

- Request for corrective action within a specified time;

- Suspension of the right of use until compliance;

- Suspension of the right of use and fixed and irreducible penalty of €1,000 per infringement found and per

product marketed capped at a total maximum of €500,000 per year;

- Recall of products identified as related to the infringement for destruction or deletion of the label;

- Definitive refusal to pursue any labelling with the operator;

The rating of serious risks and non-conformities are determined by E.V.E. on a case-by-case. Operators obtain

more information on this point during their audit and can thus anticipate and improve the control of criteria.

All remarks and corrective actions communicated by E.V.E. operators must be subject to a clear commitment to

progress : corrective action reports, structural modifications, improvement plan, etc. These actions and commitment

make it possible to improve the confidence rating given and to modulate the rhythm of controls.

3.G – RULES ON LABORATORY TESTING

3.G.1. GENERALITITIES

In accordance with European legislation, tests on live animals for cosmetic purposes, including ingredients and the

finished product, have been strictly prohibited since 11 March 2013. However, the need for animal testing is still

allowed today but legal obligations :

- for food products (novel-food regulation).

- for medical progress under the conditions defined by European Directive 2010/03.

- by the European REACH registration program (prerequisites for marketing).

- by the European EFSA registration programme (prerequisites for placing on the market).

- by other regulations outside the European Union.

- for in-vitro animal carriers.

3.G.2. E.V.E. REQUIREMENTS

The development and/or manufacture of the product, and where applicable its ingredients, must not involve, or have

involved, testing of any sort on animals conducted at the initiative of the company or on its behalf, or by parties over

whom the company has effective control. However, in some cases, regulatory organizations may impose testing

requirements in specific cases. Only the configuration below will be acceptable:

The E.V.E. finished product must not have involved:

- (N) In-vivo tests (live animals).

- (N) In-vitro tests on animal supports unrelated to a legal obligation recognized by E.V.E.

Accepted priority date: March 1, 2013.

E.V.E. is able to put the operator in contact with laboratories offering legally acceptable technological alternatives.

For new substances subject to pre-market registration: since many natural alternatives exist and many synthetic

substances whose toxicological and ecotoxicological effects are known through the grouping and/or sharing of

scientific references without the need for new animal tests, E.V.E. considers that companies (N) can reasonably

find ways to comply with the label requirements by adapting their formulation or testing protocol, if they so wish.

E.V.E. participates in the best possible evolution of operators' practices in this area, within the scope of its scope of

action and the solutions available.

3.G.4. EXPORT

Operators engaged with E.V.E. are obliged to boycott countries that would force them to carry out tests on live

animals again (finished E.V.E. product) in order to access their internal market. This prohibition applies to existing

regulations outside the European Union, for which these practices are still relevant.

Practices that aim to visually remove the label from the product and then sell it anyway without complying with the

previous rule mentioned above constitute a serious infringement.

3.H – COMMUNICATION RULES




Page | 16

3.H.1. LABELLING RULES

The following are the usual recommendations for communication and labelling of vegan products :

- Use of the EVE VEGAN logo and display of the EVE VEGAN 01 / EVE VEGAN 02 conformity code on the label.

- An explanatory text can be used in addition. For example "The EVE VEGAN label is an approach controlled by

an independent body which controls in the field the respect of a strict set of specifications in relation to the

essential principles of veganism. »

- The use of the French spelling "végane" instead of « vegan » should preferably be used in French texts in

accordance with the spelling adopted by the French dictionary in 2015.

- No mention stipulating or suggesting that E.V.E. endorses or recommends a product in any way outside its sole

control and labelling service is authorised.

- References to the EVE VEGAN label must appear on the label in a grouped form. They must not be more

apparent than the sales description on the label.

3.H.2. APPROVED SERVICES LABELLING RULES

In order to avoid confusing consumers, E.V.E. approved service managers have the formal prohibition to apply the

label EVE VEGAN 01 or EVE VEGAN 02 on their production (products manufactured, used or sold). Furthermore,

they should never use the terms "certification" or "certified" in connection with their accreditation. As an alternative,

they are only allowed to use the « Approved service » label of the on their shop window, website and flyers.

3.H.3. UNFAIR USE

The "EVE VEGAN" certification must not be misused.

Nutritonal value

The claim should not be used in such a way as to imply that vegan products automatically have a higher nutritional

value than other products. A vegan product can be high in sugar, high in fat or low in vitamins. A vegan product can

be made with processed and refined products so that it no longer necessarily represents a healthy product.

Toxicity

The mention does not guarantee the absence of pesticides, endocrine disrupters, synthetic molecules, xenobiotics

or pollutants other than those prohibited by the Compliance Referential.

Ecological impact

The mention does not guarantee a low carbon balance or a low ecological impact, unless otherwise stated.

Vegan Company

The mention does not guarantee that the manufacturer does not manufacture other products with ingredients of

animal origin.




Page | 17

Safe packaging

The mention does not guarantee the absence of pollutants in the packaging other than those prohibited by the

Compliance Referential.

Organic product

The indication does not guarantee that the product is of organic origin and/or that it complies with the specifications

for organic and/or vegan agricultural production.

The case of products that mimic an animal source

A vegan product that visually or tastefully mimics an animal source such as fake fur, leather-like printed textiles,

alternatives to cheese, etc. are eligible for vegan labelling. Consumers are free to enjoy or not, to buy or not, to

support or not a product that mimics the appearance of an animal source. This practice may be criticized by the

philosophical and moral approach to veganism, but its relevance does not call into question the use of the vegan

term.

Marketing

No mention stipulating or suggesting that E.V.E. endorses or recommends a product in any way outside its sole

control and labelling service is authorised.

4. OPERATOR COMMITMENT

4.A – BRAND ADVOCACY

Any operator or manager undertakes to respect the EVE VEGAN graphic charter on any communication medium :

packaging, advertising or website. E.V.E. and operators undertake to keep each other informed of any infringements

of which they may become aware and to cooperate in its defence. E.V.E. undertakes to keep companies informed

of any changes related to the use of its trademarks.

E.V.E. reserves the right to punish by law any infringement of its trademark, its registered logos or its image as a

civil and criminal infringement. It also reserves the right to prosecute any false statement that has led to an E. V. E.

certificate, the use of forged E. V. E. documents, or any other breach that may cast doubt on the organization's

competence and integrity.

The authorization to use the mark may be revoked if the following conditions are met :

- non-compliance with the requirements of these Compliance Referential;

- non-payment of fees ;

- termination of the labelling contract ;

4.B – COMMITMENT TO PROGRESS

Any operator or manager is committed to the continuous improvement of these management and manufacturing

methods in favour of product reliability and in favour of compliance with changes in the Compliance Referential.

Operators can demonstrate their commitment to progress throughout the year, for example during E.V.E. audits, or

by sharing any document or analysis report indicating improvements made. These elements make it possible to

improve the confidence rating given to operators and to modulate the rhythm of controls.




Page | 18

5. PROCEDURES

5.A – LABELLING PROCESS

The labeling process is organized according to simple steps and a renewal cycle specified in any agreement

established by E.V.E. Each application is subject to a feasibility study that allows the edition of an agreement

specifying the cost and conditions of the labeling.

Following the expertise and control procedures, the bureau issues the certificates for a limited period on a

favourable opinion.

Products labelled by E.V.E. are regularly inspected and controlled in the laboratory in order to test the confidence

placed in operators. The operators accept and recognise this right to E.V.E.

E. V. E. reserves the right to refuse the label to companies for which there is a suspicion of non-compliance with

the rules outside control procedures and/or moral incompatibility. Any rejected application will be refused with

reasons.

5.B – APPROVED SERVICE PROCESS

After receipt and analysis of the approval file, the manager benefits the expertise of a consultant who will carry out

a complete audit of the company according to E.V.E. criteria. At the end of this evaluation it will receive a validation,

in which case a report with the axes of improvement and proposals of actions to be implemented in the company.

Once validated it will receive a certificate of approval valid for one year from the date of grant.

Services approved by E.V.E. are regularly inspected and controlled in the laboratory to test the confidence placed

in managers. Managers accept and recognize this right to E.V.E.

5.C - RENAWAL

Operators are free to renew or not their label at the end of their contract. E.V.E. will examine the file at the operator's request up to 45 days before the deadline and will issue a new agreement taking into account the new parameters involved.

E.V.E. calls on operators to take precautions when monitoring the expiry of their contract and to anticipate their demands as well as possible with regard to their production constraints.

5.D - EXEMPTION

E.V.E. reserves the right to derogate in an exceptional manner from the Compliance Referential, to decide on any

particular or temporary derogation that it deems necessary, justifiable or opportune. Operators therefore have the

possibility to request an exceptional derogation on the basis of a written and reasoned request.




Page | 19

6. E.V.E. COMMITMENTS

6.A - EVOLUTION OF REFERENTIAL

E.V.E. undertakes to inform operators by any means of any changes made to these standards. It should be seen

as a living document that can be improved at any time. No withdrawal of products already on the market may be

required in connection with these modifications (unless regulatory requirements external to E.V.E. require

otherwise).

It is possible that the registration of a product will not be renewed because of the modification of these standards.

Consequently, alternatives, conversion periods and support will be proposed in order to find a way out of this type

of damage for operators and enable them to continue to maintain their right to use the label.

6.B – PUBLIC INFORMATION

E.V.E. is at the disposal of any entity or company for any technical question on these Compliance Referential, see

any question on vegan products in general.

6.C - COMMUNICATION

E. V. E. undertakes to make available to the public the list of labelled products on its various communication

platforms, without however taking part in private commercial operations which would threaten its independence and

impartiality.

No mention stipulating or suggesting that E.V.E. endorses or recommends a product in any way outside its control

and labeling service is authorized.

6.D – TRANSPARENCY

E. V. E. undertakes to be beyond reproach in favour of the trust placed in vegan products, to remain free and

independent of any group or organization that might undermine its ethical commitments and impartiality.

E.V.E. strives to comply with international standards defining the operating rules of certification bodies, despite the

fact that it is not required by law. This policy of rigour and example is an integral part of our label values.

6.E – WHAT E.V.E. DOES NOT GUARANTEE

The E. V. E. expertise and labeling does not include any commitment in terms of :

- Lack of air transport.

- Decent working conditions for human beings, compatible with dignity and personal fulfilment.

- Control of social standards and fair trade relations.

- Control of the limited use of authorised additives.

- Control of renewable or "eco-responsible" nature.

- Control of products from organic farming.

- Respect for the nutritional balance of food products.




Page | 20

6.F - ETHIC

E. V. E. supports the abolitionist approach to veganism. E.V.E. will not support either reformist or targeted

campaigns.
