Welcome to the 2015 Be-A-Star Program: Spotlight On Us Compass Group has succeeded for 20 years by keeping the focus on our customers and giving them our very best, every day. When a milestone year rolls around, it calls for a celebration of our company and our people. This year’s Be-A-Star theme, Spotlight On Us, centers on the inclusive word “Us.” It says that every associate is essential to our company’s growth and prosperity. We can all share the spotlight, and enjoy the rewards of the team approach that has helped us lead the industry for two decades.

The Be-A-Star program gives you goals that will help you be successful, while offering you the opportunity to be recognized for being the best. Star Achievements are tasks aligned with our MAP objectives and other goals. The program consists of 3 Star periods, aligned with the three quarters of the fiscal calendar. In the fourth quarter, results are tallied, and national winners are determined. Challenge yourself and your team to exceed expectations, and you may be among the winners!

You can access the program instructions, find support, upload submissions and claim Stars on the Be-A-Star website. We’ve done our best to make it simple and to give you links to everything you’ll need. Please help us keep it ‘green’ by completing and submitting all reports and forms electronically.

Be-A-Star 2015 - Official Rules I. General Rules Introduction: Compass Group (“Sponsor”) is sponsoring the Be-A-Star 2015 Program (“The Promotion”) for each of its companies — Bon Appétit, Canteen, Chartwells K12, Corporate Office, Eurest, Flik International Corp., Foodbuy, Morrison, and TouchPoint (“Companies”). The Promotion involves three “Stars.” Each Star consists of a series of activities and skill-based Achievements (“Action Items”). There are also three Special Awards. These general terms and conditions (“General Rules”) apply to all Achievements and Special Awards. In addition, each Achievement and Special Award may be subject to specific terms and conditions (“Action Items Rules” or “Special Award Rules,” respectively), as discussed below. The General Rules, Component Rules, and the Special Award Rules together form these Official Rules. The Promotion begins August 2014 and ends June 2015. The specific timing for each Achievement is set forth in the Achievement Rules. The timing for each Special Award is set forth in the Special Award Rules. Eligibility: Must be 18 years old or older. Each participant must comply with all terms and conditions set forth in these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all such requirements. Entries must be original work and must not have been previously published or have won any other award. Participants are eligible only if they are actively employed with the company at the time of award payout. Active participants will receive a prorated award based on the number of weeks worked in the eligible position. Vacation will be considered weeks worked for the purpose of eligibility. If a participant’s employment with the company is terminated either voluntarily or involuntarily, or if a participant engages in conduct which gives rise to a suspension or some other form of disciplinary action, then notwithstanding any other provisions of the Be-A-Star Recognition Program, the participant shall automatically become ineligible to receive all or part of an award, subject to the sole and absolute discretion of Compass Group hereinafter known as the “Company,” to decide otherwise. Prizes: Prizes, selection process, timing, and prize value details are set forth in the Achievement Rules and Special Award Rules. No substitution or transfer of prizes permitted except by Sponsor, who, in the event of prize unavailability or any other reason, reserves the right to substitute any prize with another prize of equal or greater value. All taxes, fees, and surcharges, and any other expenses not listed as included in a prize are the sole responsibility of the prize winners. Acceptance of a prize constitutes permission for Sponsor and its advertising and promotional agencies to use winner’s name and likeness for advertising and promotional purposes in any media without additional compensation unless prohibited by law. Decisions of Sponsor or judges grading submissions for any Achievement or Special Award are final and binding in all matters relating to the Promotion. In the event of a tie in any Achievement or Special Award that requires judging or evaluation, duplicate prizes will be awarded. For prizes exceeding $7500 in value, potential winners will be required to sign and return an Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability Release, and where lawful, a Publicity Release, within fourteen (14) days of notification. If a potential winner does not return such release within the (14) day time period, such potential winner will be disqualified and another winner selected in the place of the disqualified person at random from all eligible entries. If any prize or prize notification is returned as non-deliverable, the

33 | P a g e

potential winner will be disqualified and another potential winner will be selected in the original potential winner’s place. A cash payout is prorated based on full time equivalence. Forty hours equals one full share, thirty hours equals 3⁄4 share, twenty hours equals 1⁄2 share, etc., based on the normal work week at the time of payout. Miscellaneous: By participating in the Promotion, participants agree to release and hold harmless Sponsor, its parents, subsidiaries, divisions, related companies and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims or causes of action arising out of participation in the Promotion or with awards provided hereunder. All entries become the property of Sponsor. Sponsor is not responsible for late, lost, illegible, incomplete, stolen, misdirected or postage due entries. If for any reason the Promotion is not capable of running as planned including due to tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failure, human error or any other causes beyond the control of Sponsor that corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness, integrity, or proper conduct of the Promotion, Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual who tampers with the entry process, and to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the Promotion. The Sponsor assumes no responsibility for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications line failure, theft of destruction or unauthorized access to, or alteration of, entries. Submission of entry grants Sponsor and its agents the right in perpetuity to reproduce, publish, use, edit, adapt and/or modify such entry in any way, in any and all media, without limitation and without compensation to participant. Any and all disputes, claims, and causes of action with Sponsor arising out of or connected with this Promotion, other than determination or validity of claims, shall be resolved individually and exclusively by arbitration under the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures of the American Arbitration Association in Charlotte, North Carolina. Any and all claims, judgments and awards shall be limited to actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with participating in this Promotion, but in no event attorneys’ fees. Participants hereby waive all rights: (i) to claim or be awarded any punitive, direct, indirect, incidental and consequential damages and any other damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses; and (ii) to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of North Carolina. Sponsor reserves the right to cancel or modify this program as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion.
