1.0Introduction
Operating ethically and in compliance with both external regulations and our own rigorous internal standards is fundamental to managing risk and achieving operational excellence. This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code”) of Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (“Cheniere”) covers a wide range of business practices and procedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise, but it sets out basic principles to guide all of our personnel and may require conduct that exceeds legal minimums. If you have questions about applying the Code, it is your responsibility to seek guidance from Compliance & Ethics, Human Resources, or your supervisor, as applicable.
The Code is not the exclusive source of guidance and information regarding the conduct of our business. This Code applies to every member of Cheniere’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), officer and employee of Cheniere and its subsidiaries and affiliates in which it directly or indirectly holds a majority interest (collectively referred to as the “Company”).
To further the Company’s fundamental principles of honesty, loyalty, fairness and forthrightness, the Company has established this Code. This Code strives to deter wrongdoing and promote the following objectives:
•Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
•Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in all reports and documents required to be filed with or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company;
•Compliance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
•Prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to the company Hotline, the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer, or the Chief Legal Officer; and
•Accountability for adherence to this Code.

2.0Values
To emphasize that Cheniere is differentiated not only by what we do but the way we do it, we use TRAINS as an acronym for the values we embrace:
•Teamwork — Trust each other, share ideas and collaborate to meet our shared goals.
•Respect — Respect each other, the company, our stakeholders and the environment.
•Accountability — Set high, measurable performance goals, keep commitments and hold yourself and others responsible.
•Integrity — Hold yourself and each other to the highest standards of honesty and transparency.
•Nimble — Innovate and be flexible and adaptable when facing change.
•Safety — Protect the safety and well-being of people, our customers and the communities in which we operate.
3.0Compliance with Laws
The activities of the Company and each director, officer and employee are expected to be in full compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in the cities, states and countries in which the Company operates.
It would be impossible to summarize here all of the laws, rules and regulations with which the Company and its directors, officers, and employees must comply. However, each director, officer and employee of the Company is expected to understand, respect and comply with all of the laws, regulations, policies and procedures that apply to him or her in his or her position with the Company. Each employee is responsible for consulting with his or her manager or the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer to determine which laws, regulations and policies apply to his or her position and to undertake training as may be necessary to understand and comply with such laws, regulations and policies.
If any director, officer or employee has any questions about his or her obligations under any applicable law, regulation or policy, he or she should seek advice from the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer, Chief Legal Officer, or their designees.

4.0Fraud
Any activity that involves theft, fraud, embezzlement, extortion or misappropriation of property is strictly prohibited. Fraudulent activities can include, but are not limited to misappropriation of funds, securities, supplies, or other assets, falsification of records and impropriety in the handling or reporting of money or financial transactions.
5.0Bribery and Corruption
Directors, officers, and employees are strictly prohibited from offering, promising, or giving money, gifts, loans, rewards, favors or anything of value to any governmental official, employee, agent or other intermediary (either inside or outside the United States) that is prohibited by law. Those paying a bribe may subject the Company and themselves to civil and criminal penalties. When dealing with government customers or officials, improper payments are prohibited.
The Company prohibits improper payments in all of its activities, whether these activities are with governments or in the private sector.
5.1Gifts and Entertainment
Employees, officers and directors are permitted to provide or receive meals, refreshments, entertainment, and other business courtesies of reasonable value to current or potential customers, government regulators, or other parties in support of Cheniere business activities, so long as this practice (i) does not violate any law or regulation, and (ii) is consistent with industry practices, infrequent in nature, and not lavish or extravagant. In addition to the guidelines set forth in Section II above, the Company has the following policies with respect to the receipt of gifts and entertainment:
•In any case where a gift could reasonably raise a question that an individual’s judgment is influenced, such director, officer or employee should report such gift to the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer.
•A director, officer or employee should decline a gift if there would be any implication of influence on future dealings.
•A director, officer or employee should not do indirectly what he or she is prohibited from doing directly. For example, a director, officer or employee should not have a family member accept a prohibited gift.

Controlled Document Type: Policy

Every effort should be made to refuse or return an impermissible gift. If it would be inappropriate to refuse a gift or a gift cannot be returned, the gift should promptly be reported to the attention of the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer, who may require that the gift be donated to an appropriate community organization.
Directors should disclose to the Chief Legal Officer or the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer any gift or entertainment given to or received from a government official or relevant or applicable third party by the director in connection with their service on the Board. Officers and employees are expected to disclose gifts or receipts of gifts and entertainment in accordance with the Enterprise Gifts and Entertainment Policy. Please see the Company’s Enterprise Gifts and Entertainment Policy for additional detail.
5.2Political Contributions and Activities
Federal and state contribution and lobbying laws severely limit the contributions that the Company can make to political parties or candidates. It is Company policy that Company funds or assets shall not be used to make a political contribution to any political party or candidate, unless approval has been given by the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer.
When a director, officer, or employee is involved in political activities it must be on an individual basis, on their own time and at their own expense. The use of any Company assets for personal political activities, including IT systems, is prohibited. Furthermore, when a director, officer or employee speaks or otherwise takes a position on political or public issues in an individual capacity, it must be made clear that comments or statements made are those of the individual and not the Company.
5.3Competition Laws
Competition laws are designed to promote a free and open marketplace by prohibiting arrangements with competitors that restrain trade. Directors, officers, and employees must not enter into any anti-competitive arrangements, such as agreements with competitors as to prices, costs, terms or conditions of sale, the markets in which the Company and/or they will compete, or customers or suppliers with whom the Company and/or they will do business. Any questions with respect to whether an arrangement is anti-competitive should be directed to Legal or Compliance.

6.0Anti-Money Laundering
Money laundering is the process by which individuals or entities move criminal funds through the financial system in order to hide traces of their criminal origin or otherwise try to make these funds look legitimate. The Company is committed to complying fully with all applicable anti-money laundering laws in the countries in which it operates.
7.0Trade Controls
Directors, officers, and employees are required to comply with all applicable trade laws and economic sanctions laws and regulations in the countries in which the Company operates. These laws generally apply to the import, export and transfer of certain products and technology by U.S. companies.
For more information, please reference the Company’s Anti-Corruption and Economic Sanctions Policy.
8.0Fair Dealing and Anti-trust
The Company believes that behaving ethically is a good business practice. The Company intends to live up to its obligations and be honest and fair in its dealings with others. Each director, officer and employee may not seek unfair advantage with the Company’s customers, suppliers, co-workers or competitors or anyone else with whom he or she has contact in the course of performing his or her job, by concealment, manipulation, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other practice of unfair dealing.
9.0Insider Trading and Stock Tipping
Directors, officers, and employees are not permitted to use or share information concerning the Company for stock trading purposes or for any other purpose except as appropriate for the conduct of the Company’s business. All non-public information about the Company or other companies acquired in the capacity of a director, officer or employee should be considered confidential information. To use material non-public information for personal financial benefit or to “tip” others who might make an investment decision on the basis of this information is not only unethical but also illegal. In order to assist with compliance with laws against insider trading, the Company has adopted a Policy on Insider Trading and Compliance governing trading in securities of the Company and tipping of material non-public information.

The obligation to preserve the confidentiality of non-public information continues even after employment or the relationship with Company ends.
Patents, copyrights, and trademarks are legal terms that define when an invention, product, written work or name is owned by an individual or company and use of these by others is prohibited without express permission. Ownership rights in patents, copyrights and trademarks are granted on a country-by-country basis.

his or her personal interests, to make a profit or for any other purpose. All work product developed during employment with the Company shall remain Company property and shall not be taken or transferred from the Company without the Company’s consent.
11.3Privacy
The Company is committed to protecting personal data obtained in connection with its business activities and shall ensure that personal data is only collected, accessed, processed, transferred, shared, retained, and/or disclosed if there is a legitimate purpose to do so and doing so complies with applicable, laws and regulations.
For more information, please refer to the General Privacy Policy and the Staff Privacy Policy.
12.0Records Retention/Destruction
The Company’s corporate records are important assets. The Company is required by law to maintain certain types of corporate records, usually for a specified period of time. Failure to retain such documents for such minimum periods could subject the Company to penalties and fines, cause the loss of rights, obstruct justice, place the Company in contempt of court, or place the Company at a serious disadvantage in litigation.
Accordingly, the Company retains corporate records for not less than their respective legally required minimum periods, and, with respect to unregulated records, for periods deemed appropriate in the ordinary course of business.
“Corporate records” in this context include records in every form and at all locations, including paper records, computer-stored, cloud-stored and other electronic records, video and sound tapes, microfiche and microfilm and social media. They also include chronologic work product files and desk copies of documents. Records which remain retrievable (such as from computer storage) after “hard copies” are destroyed are in fact not destroyed and remain, for instance, subject to discovery in litigation.
For more information please refer to the Information Management Policy and the Records Retention Schedule.

13.0Conflicts of Interest
All directors, officers, and employees of the Company have a primary business responsibility to the Company and must avoid any activity that may interfere or appear to interfere with the performance of this responsibility. Business decisions must be based solely on the best interests of the Company, without regard to personal, family or other extraneous considerations.
A “conflict of interest” exists when:
•a real or perceived private interest of a director, officer or employee is in conflict with the interest of the Company;
•any such individual receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position with the Company; or
•the individual has other duties, loyalties, responsibilities or obligations that are, or may be viewed as being, inconsistent with his or her duties, loyalties, responsibilities or obligations to the Company.
Conflicts of interest may arise when an individual’s position or responsibilities with the Company present an opportunity for gain apart from his or her normal rewards of employment. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an individual’s personal or family interests are, or may be viewed as being, inconsistent with those of the Company and therefore as creating conflicting loyalties. Such conflicting loyalties may cause a director, officer or employee to give preference to personal interests, either internal or external, in situations where Company responsibilities must come first. Personal interest which might affect, directly or indirectly, the proper exercise of judgment should be avoided.
Conflicts of interest may not always be easily recognized or identified. The following are examples of situations in which a conflict of interest may arise, although this list is not exhaustive:
•The handling of a transaction which is or could be viewed as a conflict of interest because of a material connection with the individual or company involved.
•Service as a director of an outside company or on boards of charitable and civic organizations if such service interferes with the duties and responsibilities of such director, officer or employee.
•Ownership by an employee or, to the employee’s knowledge, an employee’s family member of a significant financial interest in any outside enterprise that does or seeks to do business

with, or competes with, the Company. A significant financial interest is a direct or indirect combined interest of an employee and their family members of more than: 1% of any class of the outstanding securities of a firm or corporation, 10% interest in a partnership or association, and/or 5% of total assets or gross income of such employee and their family members.
•Participation in a business decision with respect to an entity that is a material competitor of the Company in which a family member is an employee.
•Solicitation of contributions or the sale of goods and services by or for other businesses or organizations on Company property or while acting as an agent of the Company.
•Acceptance of a loan from any Company customer or supplier.
•Acceptance of a fee from a third-party for performing any act that the Company could have performed.
•Abusing a position within the Company for personal gain.
Conflicts of interest are prohibited as a matter of Company policy unless specifically authorized as described below. The appearance of a conflict of interest can be as damaging to the Company as an actual conflict. Each director, officer and employee should conduct themselves at all times so as to avoid, where possible, conflicts of interest and the appearance of conflicts of interest unless specifically authorized as described below.
Persons other than directors and Section 16 officers1 who become aware of an actual or potential conflict of interest should discuss the matter with and seek a determination and
authorization from the Chief Legal Officer or the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer.
1 The term “officer” for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is defined to mean an issuer’s president, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer (or, if there is no such accounting officer, the controller), any vice president of the issuer in charge of a principal business unit, division or function (such as sales, administration or finance), any other officer who performs a policy-making function, or any other person who performs similar policy-making functions for the issuer. Officers of the issuer’s parent(s) or subsidiaries are deemed officers of the issuer if they perform such policy-making functions for the issuer. When the issuer is a limited partnership, officers or employees of the general partner(s) who perform policy-making functions for the limited partnership are deemed officers of the limited partnership. If pursuant to Item 401(b) of Regulation S-K the issuer identifies a person as an “executive officer,” it is presumed that the Board of Directors has made that judgment and that the persons so identified are the officers for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, as are such other persons enumerated above.

In addition to any review required under Section 13.1 and except to the extent specifically provided otherwise elsewhere in this Code, any situation, transaction or relationship that involves a director or Section 16 officer that may give rise to an actual, apparent, or potential conflict of interest must be disclosed in advance to the Chief Legal Officer and the Chair of the Audit Committee and, if appropriate, approved in advance by the Audit Committee or other independent committee of the Board. Non-employee directors of Cheniere should promptly notify the Chief Legal Officer or Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer in advance of accepting any new board position outside of charitable and civic organizations.
A director, officer or employee may not personally benefit from their relationship or employment with the Company except through compensation received directly from the Company. This prohibition does not apply to discounts offered by merchants that are generally available to all employees of the Company.
13.1Outside Activities
A director, officer or employee must disclose and obtain approval from the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer (with respect to an officer or employee) or the Chief Legal Officer (with respect to a director) before participating in business activities outside the Company that could either unreasonably interfere with their duties and responsibilities to the Company or reflect poorly on the Company. The Company will generally approve such activities unless they are not in the best interest of the Company or that a conflict of interest otherwise exists.
13.2Corporate Opportunities
A director, officer or employee shall not take personal advantage or obtain personal gain from an opportunity learned of or discovered during the course and scope of his or her employment or relationship with the Company when that opportunity or
discovery could be of benefit or interest to the Company. Any such opportunity or discovery shall first be presented to the Company before being pursued in an individual capacity. Likewise, no director, officer or employee should use Company property, information or position for personal gain.

14.0Accuracy in Reporting and Other Public Communications
The Company must provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in all reports and documents filed with, or submitted to, the SEC, other regulators, and in public communications made by the Company. The full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in all such reports and documents and other public communications made by the Company is required by laws, rules and regulations and is of critical importance to the Company. This means, among other things, that any director, officer or employee who is responsible for, or who contributes to, the preparation or review of the Company’s financial statements or other information that is to be filed with the SEC or otherwise made publicly available, shall exercise due care in preparing and reviewing any such materials.
Depending on the position with the Company, an officer or employee may be called upon to provide necessary information to assure that the Company’s public reports are full, fair, accurate and understandable. The Company expects all officers and employees to take this responsibility seriously and to provide prompt and accurate answers to inquiries related to the Company’s disclosure requirements. In addition, each director, officer and employee has a responsibility to ensure that all Company documents and reports for which he or she is responsible are free of any materially false, misleading, incomplete or otherwise improper information. No person shall mislead, manipulate, defraud or coerce, or improperly influence the Company’s auditors or any employee, officer or director of the Company or any advisor to the Company, including outside counsel or auditors, with respect to the Company’s audit or SEC reports.
