Notice: This policy sets forth internal rules of conduct and ethics. Other codes of conduct and ethical requirements may apply to Capstone Companies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as all of their officers, directors, employees and authorized agents as a result of local or foreign laws and rules, industry regulators or self-regulation organizations (e.g. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, The OTC Markets Group, Inc.). This policy does not override or supersede other legal requirements, codes of conduct or ethics that apply to Capstone Companies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
This policy does not override or supersede or modify any internal controls and systems as well as related policies and practices of the Company adopted to ensure: (1) compliance with reporting and disclosure guidelines or requirements of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and other regulatory authorities as well as PCAOB and Financial Standards Accounting Board ("FASB") rules and standards; (2) accuracy of all public business and financial reports and filings made with the SEC and OTC and any other regulatory authorities; (3) recommendations of the Company's public auditors; and (4) compliance with Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder as well as related SEC policies and guidelines.

If you have questions, speak to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or a member of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (See "Contact" below).

1. PURPOSE
To ensure each Capstone Companies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Company") officers, directors, employees and agents have a clear understanding of the ethical principles of business conduct expected from each employee.
2. SCOPE
This policy applies to all employees, officers, directors, and agents of the Company (collectively, "Person"). As used below, "Company" includes all wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. "SEC" or "Commission" means the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
3. RESPONSIBILITY/AUTHORITY
Each Person has the responsibility to in good faith and diligently abide by this Policy.
4.
PROCEDURE.
4.1 Each Person has an individual responsibility to deal ethically in all aspects of the Company's business and financial matters and to comply fully with all laws, regulations, and Company policies. Each individual is expected to assume the responsibility for applying these standards of ethical conduct and for acquainting himself/herself with the various laws, regulations, and Company policies applicable to his or her assigned duties. When in doubt, Persons have the responsibility to seek clarification from their supervisor or the head of Human Resources, if any, or the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors ("Audit Committee"). Violations of the Policy are grounds for disciplinary action up to and including discharge and possible legal proceedings.
4.2 Honesty and Fairness. As a fundamental standard, Company expects from honesty and openness from all Persons in dealing with others in the conduct of Company affairs. Persons are expected to accept responsibility for their actions and to communicate information timely and accurately to fellow Persons and superiors. Supervisors have a responsibility to set examples of honesty and fairness in their relationships with subordinates, Company shareholders, regulators, press, and customers, etc.
4.3 Valuing the Individual. Persons are expected to treat their fellow Persons with respect. All Persons must be given an equal opportunity to succeed regardless of their race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, national origin, or disability. Harassment or unequal treatment of fellow Persons will not be tolerated. The Persons
who make up the Company's workforce are its greatest strength, and each employee's uniqueness should be treated with tolerance and respect. Each Company supervisor is expected to foster an environment that encourages each employee to develop his or her capabilities to the fullest without interference from discriminatory, unequal or harassing treatment.
4.4 Conflicts of Interest. Persons are expected to avoid any outside interests or activities that could be advanced at the expense of Company's interests. Such involvement may divide a Person's loyalty between Company and the outside, conflicting interests, and create a potential conflict of interest. Persons may not operate directly, or through nominees or designated alternatives such as family members, "side businesses" that compete with, sell to, or buy from Company, etc. Persons should avoid any financial investments in competitors, suppliers or customers, other than investments in public companies, that would affect an employee's objectivity in promoting the Company's interest. Senior executives and board members should contact the Audit Committee regarding any issues relating to possible conflict of interest. Persons should conduct themselves in a manner that avoids even the possible appearance of conflict between their personal interests and those of the Company.
4.5 Apparent conflicts of interest can easily arise. Any employee who feels that he or she may have a conflict, actual or potential, should report all pertinent details in writing the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will be responsible for determining whether a conflict of interest exists. Contact information for the Audit Committee is set forth at the end of this Policy.
4.6 Working With Our Business Partners, Vendors and Suppliers Doing Business with Others. All relationships with third parties must comply with company policy and the law. Company will not do business with others who may cause harm to our reputation. For example, Company will avoid doing business with others who intentionally or continually violate federal or state laws. These laws include, for example, local environmental, safety and anti-corruption statutes. Company will not use a third party to perform any act prohibited by law or the Policy.
4.7 Agents and Consultants commission rates or fees paid to dealers, distributors, agents, finders or consultants must be reasonable in relation to the value of the product or work that is actually being performed.
Company will not pay commissions or fees where there is reason to believe such payments are for the purpose of constituting a bribe or kickback.
4.8 Product vendors. Product vendors play a vital role in the success of our business. In some cases, the product vendor is highly visible to our customers. It is important to ensure that our vendors preserve and strengthen Company's reputation by acting consistently with our Policy. Company prohibits commercial bribes, kickbacks, and other similar payoffs and benefits paid to any vendors. The Company sometimes works with proprietary data of product vendors. No employee shall disclose any vendors' confidential or proprietary information to non-employees, nor shall any Company employee disclose such information to other employees, except on a need-to-know basis.
4.9 Gifts and Entertainment. Company does not seek to gain any advantage through the improper use of business courtesies or other inducements. Gifts from suppliers, customers or competitors to Persons may raise the appearance, if not the reality, of dishonest or unfair dealings. It is Company's policy that all business decisions be made impartially and fairly, and not on the basis of gratuities. Therefore, no Person, or any of his or her immediate family, may solicit or accept favors, gifts, loans or other benefits (including services, vacations, holidays, travel, accommodations, and discounts, as well as material goods) from any supplier, customer or competitor. This includes "directed" share program participation with vendors, suppliers, consultants and customers, whether current or prospective. The only exception to this policy is for casual entertainment or gifts (other than money) of nominal value which are customarily offered to others having a similar relationship with the supplier, customer or competitor, or if specific approval is obtained via a clearance from the Audit Committee. Persons should exercise judgment in deciding whether a gift or entertainment is of nominal value (not to exceed $100.00). It is always better to decline in circumstances where there is doubt.
4.10 Gifts, entertainment, or charitable contributions of nominal value, or business courtesies, are occasionally used to create goodwill with Company's customers, suppliers or others. If they go beyond that and make the recipient feel obliged to offer any special consideration to Company they are unacceptable. The Policy is to avoid even the appearance of favoritism based on business courtesies. Persons should exercise good judgment and moderation and should offer business courtesies to customers only to the extent that they are in accordance with reasonable practices in the marketplace. On occasions when gift giving or entertainment is widely accepted and customarily practiced, such gratuities may be offered to employees of customers, suppliers or others, provided they are lawful, appropriate, of nominal value and consistent with the recipient Company's policies. Special laws and regulations apply when dealing with government representatives and foreign officials and any employee involved in the government or international business markets is required to become fully acquainted with the relevant restrictions. All gifts, entertainment and charitable contributions, regardless of their nature or value, must be properly recorded on expense report forms or other appropriate accounting document.
4.11 Use of Company Resources. Each Person has a responsibility to use Company resources, including time, materials, equipment and proprietary information, for Company business purposes, and not for personal benefit. Persons are expected to engage only in Company-related activities during normal business hours and should not use such time for conducting personal business. Persons shall not use Company property (such as laboratory, manufacturing equipment, computers, tools, materials, assets and facilities) for other than Company purposes, unless authorized by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or immediate supervisor.
4.12 Inventions and ideas developed as a result of a Company assignment, during Company time, or using Company property belong to Company and should not be otherwise disclosed, used or commercialized by employees. Engineering designs and information relating to Company products may not be used, other than in Company's business, without Company's prior written approval. Persons have a responsibility not to misuse the inventions and ideas of others. Copyright material (including books, articles, computer software programs and tapes) should never be plagiarized.
4.13 Confidential Information/Public Statements/Third Party Information. All Persons who receive Company's business and technical information and know-how in trust, and are expected to maintain such information in strict confidence and not to disclose or use it other than in the Company's business and for the Company's benefit. This information includes, for example, names of customers and suppliers, manufacturing processes and equipment, employee lists, facilities layout, engineering drawings, business plans, unpublished financial and marketing information, contract terms, and all documents and data that relate to such items. The Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer must approve in advance any public statements regarding the performance or affairs of Company (except the normal material given to suppliers or customers). Any inquiries from the press should be referred to the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. Any information that is made available to any Person from an internal system that would be expected, in the ordinary course of business, to be maintained in a confidential manner, shall be kept confidential. Such information includes, but is not limited to business records, business data, personal and financial information such as social security numbers or bank records and information that could result in the identification of an individual in an otherwise blind study. In addition, no attempt should be made to obtain trade secret, proprietary or other confidential information concerning competitors from candidates or newly hired employees. This Section 4.13 also applies to the confidential information of Company's vendors, consultants and customers.
4.14 Payments to Suppliers and Third Parties/Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"). Company will not directly or indirectly engage in any activity that could have the effect of promoting illegal boycotts or restrictive international trade practices fostered by foreign countries against potential or actual customers. Persons should immediately seek advice from the Audit Committee or Chief Financial Officer if such a request is received which seemingly seeks the Company's involvement in such a restrictive trade practice. Payments to suppliers and third parties, including consultants, agents, and representatives, shall be made only for services or products properly provided to the Company. No Person shall make or arrange any direct or indirect payment in the nature of a bribe or kickback to secure or maintain business, or for any other purpose, to the personnel of any government agency, customer, supplier or competitor. In order to avoid even the appearance of improper payments, no payments are to be made by the Company in cash, other than approved cash payrolls and documented petty cash disbursements. No corporate checks are to be written to "cash," "bearer" or third-party designees of the person entitled to payment. Cash payments may never be made to employees of competitors, suppliers, customers or government agencies. Such payments create the potential for favoritism by such employees based on other-than-competitive factors. The practice of making "facilitating payments" in foreign countries may not be illegal in certain circumstances (e.g., small payments made to minor functionaries who, unless compensated, would delay or refuse to perform administrative functions to which Company is clearly entitled). To the extent that such payments are legal and considered necessary, they may be made only in those countries where they are a recognized and open practice, and only following approval by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. Any such facilitating payment must be properly recorded and accounted for and reported annually so that Company may comply with all tax and other applicable laws.
4.15 Antitrust/Competition. Company policy is to comply fully with all antitrust, competition and trade regulation laws and use only ethical and proper methods to market the Company's products. All Company customers shall be treated fairly and evenhandedly. No preferential trade terms or other treatment will be extended to any customer in violation of any law. To avoid even the appearance of improper actions, Company absolutely prohibits consultations with competitors regarding prices, customers or territories. All continuing relationships with agents, distributors, consultants and other representatives must be put in writing and in a form approved by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. Commissions and other payments must be adequately documented and reported to government authorities as required. Company will fully comply with all valid restrictions on the receipt or use of privileged or proprietary information of others. All Persons must strictly avoid seeking or receiving any competitor's information from any source in violation of any law or other restriction.
4.16 Persons must avoid making disparaging comments relating to Company's competitors and are expected to deal only in facts. These limitations apply to all phases of Company's actual or potential competition with third parties, including bid and proposal activity, marketing, research and development, and engineering work.
4.17 Compliance with All Laws in All Jurisdictions. It is the policy of Company to comply with all applicable laws in every location where Company does business. When the Company's internal policies are more stringent than local laws, Company's policy will be observed and followed.
4.18 Accurate Books and Records. Company's business integrity is reflected in a tangible way in its books and records. All employees are strictly responsible for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the Company's accounts. Fictitious, improper, deceptive, undisclosed or unrecorded funds, assets, or liabilities are serious ethical violations. The Company has established accounting control standards and procedures. It is the policy of the Company that all books and records conform to generally accepted accounting principles in each of the respective countries in which Company may do business and to all applicable laws and regulations. All transactions must be accurately documented and accounted for in the books and records of the Company. All entries must contain appropriate descriptions of the underlying transactions sufficient to withstand appropriate audit and no false, inaccurate or deceptive entries shall be made. No employee shall enter into any transaction that is other than as described in supporting documentation. Furthermore, no employee shall participate in obtaining or creating false invoices or other misleading documentation, or inventing or using fictitious entities, sales, purchases, services, loans or other financial arrangements for any purpose. Company will not maintain or use any anonymous ("numbered") bank account or other account that does not identify ownership by the Company.
4.19 Government Procurement Regulations. All Company business conducted with government customers or pursuant to government contracts must comply with proper procedures, systems, and controls are in place to provide full compliance with the applicable procurement regulations. Any questions regarding compliance with government procurement regulations or contract requirements should be directed to the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer.
4.20 Ensuring Compliance--Violations of this Policy May Be Grounds for Immediate Dismissal. Persons are expected to question any practice or conduct which conflicts with, or appears to conflict with, Company ethical standards until such questions are satisfactorily resolved. If necessary, a Person should seek clarification or interpretation of these standards from his or her supervisor, or from the head of Human Resources. Persons must understand that possessing knowledge of these types of issues and failing to report the information is in violation of this Policy. If such a violation occurs, the Person will be subject to disciplinary action Policy, laws, and regulations should be reported. Persons may also be required to assist in any investigation concerning such reports.
5.
Whistleblower Policy. This Whistleblower Policy is part of the Policy.
5.1 General Obligations. Company requires all Persons to conduct their duties and responsibilities with the highest standards of business and personal ethics, including SEC rules and policies. Persons must practice honesty and integrity in, and comply with, all applicable laws and regulations. Since the best systems of control cannot provide absolute safeguards against irregularities, Company requires Persons to exercise honest diligence in compliance with all laws, rules, this Policy and Company policies. Intentional and unintentional violations of laws, regulations, policies and procedures may occur and may constitute improper activities. This Whistleblower Policy governs the reporting and investigation of allegations of suspected improper activities.
5.2 All Persons acknowledge that the Company's internal controls, operating procedures and policies are intended to detect, prevent or deter improper activities, including any activity by an employee undertaken in the performance of their official duties, whether or not that action is within the scope of his or her employment, and is in violation of any applicable law or regulation, including, but not limited to, corruption, malfeasance, bribery, theft of property, fraudulent claims, fraud, coercion, conversion, malicious prosecution, misuse of property, or willful omission to perform a duty, is economically wasteful, or involves gross misconduct, incompetence or inefficiency.
5.3 Definitions
.
"Whistleblower"
is a person or entity making a disclosure of improper activities, and may be an employee, vendor, client, customer or the general public. A whistleblower is not an investigator or finder of fact, and does not determine appropriate corrective or remedial action that may be warranted. The purpose of the Policy is to establish procedures whereby a person may report improper activities, as defined below.
5.4 Reporting responsibility. It is the responsibility of all directors, officers and employees to report violations, suspected violations or unlawful conduct in accordance with this Whistleblower Policy. Improper activities include corporate fraud, unethical business conduct, violations of laws and practices or procedures related to accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing. Particular areas of concern include equal employment opportunity, harassment, conflicts of interests, confidential or proprietary information, accounting controls and procedures, fraud, protection of shareholder interests and competition.
5.5 Violations

related to accounting controls and procedures may include fraud or deliberate error in the preparation, evaluation, review or audit of any financial statement of or deliberate the recording and maintaining of Company's financial records; deficiencies in or non-compliance with Company's internal accounting controls; misrepresentation or false statement to or by a senior officer or accountant regarding a matter contained in the financial records, financial reports or audit reports of Company, or deviation from full and fair reporting of Company's financial condition.
5.6 Ban on Retaliation
. (a)
No Person, who in good faith reports a violation, shall suffer harassment, retaliation or adverse employment consequence. An employee who retaliates against someone who has reported a violation in good faith is subject to discipline up to and including termination of employment. This Whistleblower Policy is intended to encourage and enable employees and others to raise serious concerns within Company rather than seeking resolution outside of the Company.
(b) The Company shall not enter into any agreement or adopt any policy that unfairly or unduly hinders the enforcement of this Whistleblower Policy, including reporting or complaints about violations of this Whistleblower Policy. This restriction includes withholding or conditioning payment of money for non-disclosure agreements that cover potential reports or complaints about violations of this Whistleblower Policy.
5.7 Duty to Report Violations.
Company has an open-door policy, and encourages employees to share their questions, concerns, suggestions or complaints with someone who can address them properly –in most cases, an employee's supervisor is in the best position to address an area of concern. However, if you are not comfortable speaking with your supervisor or you are not satisfied with your supervisor's response, you are encouraged to speak with someone in management whom you are comfortable approaching. Supervisors and managers are required to report suspected violations to the Audit Committee, who has specific and exclusive responsibility to investigate all reported violations. For suspected fraud or securities law violations, or when you are not satisfied or uncomfortable with following Company's open-door policy, individuals should contact Audit Committee directly.
5.8 Duty to Act in Good Faith
.
Anyone filing a complaint concerning a violation or suspected violation must be acting in good faith and have reasonable grounds for believing the information disclosed indicates a violation. Any allegations that prove not to be substantiated and which prove to have been made frivolously will be viewed as a serious disciplinary offense.
5.9 Confidentiality. Violations or suspected violations may be submitted on a confidential basis by the complainant or may be submitted anonymously. Reports of violations or suspected violations will be kept confidential to the extent possible, consistent with the need to conduct an adequate investigation.
5.10 Reporting Process
.
The members of the Audit Committee are responsible for enforcement and processing complaints and reports about violations of this Whistleblower Policy.

6.
Insider Trading or Tipping Policy.
Notice:
Insider trading under U.S. law is a crime punishable by civil penalties of up to three times the profit gained or losses avoided on a transaction, criminal fines of up to $5 million, and up to 20 years in prison. Companies may also face civil penalties, up to the greater of over $1 million or three times the profit gained or losses avoided, for insider trading violations by their employees and other agents. "Tipping" can result in the same civil and criminal penalties that apply if an individual engages in insider trading directly, even if the individual does not receive any money or derive any benefit from trades made by others to whom the individual passed material non-public information.
6.1 General Ban. (a) Person is prohibited by the Company's Insider Trading Policy and the law from buying or selling securities of any company at a time when a Person is in possession of "material non-public information" about that company. This conduct is known as "insider trading." The prohibition on insider trading applies to Company securities and to securities of other companies if a Person learns material non-public information about other companies, such as the Company's suppliers or tenants, in the course of your duties for the Company. Communicating material non-public information about a company to someone who may buy or sell the company's securities - known as "tipping" - is also illegal. Federal and international law enforcement officials have sophisticated techniques for identifying insider trading and tipping and vigorously enforce these laws regardless of where the activity occurs or the amount involved.
(b) Information is "material" if (a) there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would find the information "important" in determining whether to trade in a security; or (b) the information, if made public, likely would affect the market price of a Company's securities.
(c) Information is considered to be "non-public" unless it has been disclosed and broadly disseminated to the public by the Company, which means that the information must be publicly disclosed by the Company through appropriate channels (such as by means of a filing with the SEC and a press release or a widely disseminated statement from a senior officer) and adequate time –
UNDER THIS INSIDER TRADING POLICY, A PERSON MAY NOT TRADE IN COMPANY SECURITIES UNTIL AT LEAST FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF THE MATERIAL INFORMATION AND FOR PRE-SCHEDULED, PERIODIC SEC FILINGS WITH COMPANY FINANCIAL RESULTS (E.G. FORM 10-K ANNUAL REPORT OR FORM 10-Q QUARTERLY REPORT) OR SIGNIFICANT EVENT REPORTS ON FORM 8-K FILED WITH THE SEC, A PERSON MAY NOT TRADE IN THE COMPANY SECURITIES TWO
WEEKS BEFORE AND TWO WEEKS AFTER THE FILING IS MADE WITH THE SEC (PROVIDED, THAT A PERSON CAN NEVER TRADE COMPANY SECURITIES WHEN IN POSSESSION OF NON-PUBLIC, MATERIAL INFORMATION).
6.2 Persons also may not relay material, non-public information ("Tipping") to anyone except in accordance with applicable laws and rules. Persons should consult Chief Financial Officer for guidance on those requirements. Information is material if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in making an investment decision, or if it would reasonably be expected to affect the value of securities of the Company. Examples of material information may include (but are not limited to):
|
Launch of new product line or business line:
|
|
Significant funding or financing;
|
|
Threatened legal or regulatory proceedings or regulatory investigation;
|
|
A significant acquisition, sale of a business, merger or takeover bid;
|
|
A change in the general character or nature of the Company;
|
|
Entering into or loss of significant contracts;
|
|
Bankruptcy, impending insolvency, or other financial problems;
|
|
Significant new business opportunities (e.g., discoveries, inventions, new orders or contracts), or the loss of business;
|
|
A change in a company's capital structure; or
|
|
Earnings information or information about a dividend declaration that is not available to the public.
|
6.3 Penalties. Insider trading and tipping are serious criminal offences. If we have any questions as to whether a particular piece of information is material and/or non-public we should contact Chief Financial Officer prior to taking any action that may constitute insider trading or tipping.
6.4 Shorting are prohibited from:
|
Short selling (i.e., a transaction whereby Person seeks to make a profit speculating that the value of the securities will decrease) securities issued by Company;
|
|
Entering into any transaction or series of transactions that is designed to, or has the effect of, hedging or offsetting a decrease in the market value of securities issued by Company; or
|
|
Entering into any contract or series of contracts that create a short sale of Company securities; or
|
|
Trading in put or call options on securities issued by the Company securities, including covered calls.
|
6.5 Company Awards. In addition to the specific prohibitions above, all Persons who receive equity-based compensation awards (including, for example, restricted share units, performance share units and stock options) are prohibited from entering into any transaction that is designed to, or has the effect of, hedging or offsetting a decrease in the market value of such awards.
