Environmental Policy

Purpose:

To outline the policy and procedures effective throughout the Tangoe concerning environmental protection.

Environmental Principles

Realizing that the world’s natural resources are limited and fragile, Tangoe considers environmental protection to be consistent with its overall goals and values and an important consideration in its total activities. This commitment to environmental protection is reflected in our policies, programs, and practices for conducting operations in an environmentally as well as economically responsible manner.

Furthermore, the Corporation recognizes that effective environmental management can positively impact corporate profitability in several important ways. First, programs designed to make efficient use of natural resources often minimize operating costs. Second, environmental quality programs help sustain and enhance the Corporation’s presence and reputation in domestic and international markets. Third, compliance programs minimize risk and potential legal liability. In these ways and more, environmental protection is viewed by Tangoe as important to the economic well-being of the corporation.

With that in mind, Tangoe strives to achieve a 2% (minimum) energy reduction year over year. The Company takes pride in the fact that this goal has been successfully achieved since 2008 and stands firm in its efforts to meet its energy reduction goals both now, and in the future.

In light of the above principles, the following corporate environmental policy has been established.
