Usage Rights

Health Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc. (HDL, Inc.) is a dynamic company characterized by many progressive initiatives. Our company is united around a brand that is represented by our employees every day and reflected in everything we do.

The goal of standardizing the company’s marketing and communications materials is to present a consistent and high-quality representation.

These assist HDL, Inc. staff in the creation of communications, official templates, logos, and other brand assets that are available through Marketing.

Materials intended for distribution must be submitted to the Marketing Department to facilitate review for:

The HDL, Inc. logo and brand marks may be used only with Marketing’s express written permission.

1. Brand Fidelity: compliance with brand standards and consistent appearance, corporate quality standards, proper representation of the company persona, grammar.

If you have questions about the brand standards, please contact the Marketing Department.

To communicate our brand through publications, e-media, and presentations in a recognizable and professional way, we have a tool: our brand standards. Those standards are explained in this manual, which was produced by the Marketing Department.

Smart use of the brand standards over time builds brand recognition in the community and industry.

Marketing & Communications FAQ The following questions relate directly to brand standards. How do I know which document to use? The 2014 Document Control Guide establishes the following five steps to compliance: 1. No external content with the HDL, Inc. logo may be distributed if it is not accessed from the Document Control Guide or the supporting platforms that it feeds (K-Drive/Marketing External folder and SharePoint). 2. No external content with the HDL, Inc. logo may be distributed if it does not contain a current Document Control Number and was not accessed from the Document Control Guide, SharePoint, or K-Drive prior to sharing with external stakeholders. 3. All external content with the HDL, Inc. logo, name, or likeness must be approved by the HDL, Inc. Marketing team, organized, saved, and categorized in the Document Control Guide, SharePoint, and K-Drive.

Can I make my own documents?

Everyone knows an employee may not make his or her own website represented as HDL, Inc. In the same way, employees may NOT create brochures or any marketing collateral outside the official Marketing process. If you have a marketing need, follow the official Marketing process. Employees may NOT independently create marketing materials. Employees may NOT commission vendors to engage in marketing. Marketing must vet all vendors, design agencies, photographers, printers, and producers that may be used for company marketing.

What do the 2014 brand standards do for HDL, Inc.? The HDL, Inc. Marketing team has created the 2014 Brand Standards Guide to outline the use of the HDL, Inc. identity for all departments and external stakeholders to maintain the strength of our brand. The logo treatments serve as a reflection of the outstanding institution we have become. Using them consistently will result in communications that build preference for our HDL, Inc. brand. Our exceptional founders, medical leaders, researchers, and staff help enhance our HDL, Inc. image through the great work they perform each day. By following these guidelines, we will further protect our brand, one of our most valuable assets. All parties responsible for the production of visual communications produced by or for HDL, Inc. will be expected to apply these standards correctly, in both print and electronic applications. This applies to both internal HDL, Inc. employees as well as external vendors. Continuing to adopt this branded look ensures that all of our communications are polished and professional, and meet a high standard of quality.

4. All web assets (Patient Portal, Physician Portal, corporate site, etc.) must utilize content from the Document Control Guide, SharePoint, and/or K-Drive. 5. All departments must utilize the Document Control Guide and its supporting web assets when using material with the HDL, Inc. logo, name, and likeness.

HDL, Inc. | Brand Platform | Page 8


Persona & Quality Standards


Brand Persona When we communicate, it's not just what we say, it's how we say it. When HDL, Inc. was created, the founders had a vision that included making HDL, Inc. a company with a persona unlike any other in the field. Rather than a status quo position of conservative/ academic, the company has taken a much brighter tone. Marketing conveys the corporate persona. INNOVATIVE PASSIONATE SCIENTIFIC COMPASSIONATE Our brand persona is a real component of HDL, Inc. Marketing should support the persona on an ongoing basis.

HDL, Inc. | Brand Platform | Page 10


Corporate Quality Standards Marketing at HDL, Inc. should attain a high level of quality standards in design and production. This is a reflection of the quality of our service. The Marketing Department demands design with a high level of craft, art, and professionalism. Similarly, we require high standards of print quality, video production, and both material and electronic construction. All outside vendors engaged to design and/or produce marketing jobs must be Marketing Department approved. Before hiring a vendor, Marketing will first assess the ability and capacity of internal resources to perform the task. If ability and capacity is not present—and the task is within budget projections—Marketing will request price estimates from approved vendors.

Corporate Logo/Brand Architecture


The Master Logo Who We Are

a With Tagline

b Without Tagline

The Master corporate logo is the most immediate representation of our company, our people, and our brand to the world. It is a valuable corporate asset that must be used consistently in the proper, approved forms. There are two versions of the master logo:

Stacked Logo with Tagline

Stacked Logo without Tagline

a Logo with the “tag” b Logo without the “tag”

The tagged version is used by default. The untagged version is used when the logo will be scaled small enough to render the tagline hard to read. Use the stacked logo only when the usage space prohibits use of the wide/one-line logo. Whenever referring to the company in copy, always use the full name, Health Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc. (HDL, Inc.) during its first occurrence in a document. Following instances may be referred to as "HDL, Inc. HDL, Inc. | Brand Platform | Page 13

a Round Edge Box/Page Container

Preference is always for full bleed when printing is controlled and professional BUT for one-pagers and documents distributed mainly as PDFs, use a white margin and contain the content in a round-edge box. When using the round-edge box, use 80% black, and a light stroke (0.5 pt for letter page) b Gradient Rule:

Use the green gradient rule when you need to divide a space in a layout Copy the rule to the right, or use these gradient options

HDL, Inc. | Brand Platform | Page 22


Digital Subbrand Standardization Our accepted term is “myHDL” when referring to any digital tool such as the portal and our patient and physician apps. In copy, always express the website URL as myHDL.com and the app as "myHDL":

a

b

c

e

f

myHDL.com (website) myHDL (app) When using myHDL.com or myHDL in copy, the case of the term trumps grammatical case rules. For instance, a headline in title case would read "Introducing the myHDL App", not "Introducing the myHDL App."

myHDL.com Snipe d

Logo options can be used to promote the portal. These logos are not acceptable as a proxy for the master logo. Communications using these logos must primarily be branded with the master logo. Color modes: a Full-color logo b One-color logo c Reverse logo

The myHDL.com “snipe” is not the logo. It is a graphic that contains the logo and is used to draw attention and direct a call to action. d Logo for use on green background e One-color logo f Logo for use on photos and

Use of Master Logo with Subbrand Logos When subbrands appear, they must always be accompanied by the master logo. Subbrand logos should not appear directly beside the master logo as in a cobrand. Instead, subbrand logos occupy a separate region of the material. Consult the Marketing Department for more options based on materials.

HDL, Inc. | Brand Platform | Page 25


Cobranded Logos When the HDL, Inc. logo appears in tandem with another organization’s logo, the defining characteristics of our logo may not be altered.

Approved Cobranded Logo Example a

b

Colors may not be changed to match those of another company. The HDL, Inc. logo may not be used in a cobrand without written permission from HDL, Inc. leadership. a Co-brands are represented in

equal size relationships, divided by a 50% black rule.

OFFICIAL HEALTH & WELLNESS PARTNER

b When cobranding, our brand must

respect the standards of our partner organizations. Special development of a custom cobrand logo may be required. Contact the Marketing Department for assistance.

File Type

Color Mode

File Type

CMYK ›› CMYK is the commercial printer code for cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, the four-color process used for most offset printing. Use CMYK when running full- or four-color jobs (see Example 1).

EPS ›› EPS files are vector art and may be enlarged to any size without loss of resolution. EPS files are optimal for commercial printing. Only EPS files will correctly separate into spot PMS colors.

PMS ›› PMS is an abbreviation of Pantone Matching System, used by commercial printers for mixing inks to standard formula guidelines. Use PMS when requesting a spot color commercial printing or custom imprinted job. BW ›› A solid black ink version of the logo (see Example 2). REV ›› A reversed version of the logo, optimized for use on a dark background. RGB ›› Colors are created by combining red, green, and blue, and it is used for primarily for electronic displays. The output varies from device to device, so it is not a good indicator of true color.

JPEG ›› JPEG files are raster art. JPEGs are acceptable in a wide range of software, including the Microsoft Office suite. Exercise caution when enlarging JPEGs, as they may become pixilated. JPEGs should not be used for commercial printing but are appropriate for documents printed on desktop ink jet and laser printers as well as internet usage. PNG ›› PNG files are raster art. PNG files are useful when a reversed version of the logo or a logo with a transparent background is needed. PNG files are commonly used this way for websites as well as presentations. Exercise caution when enlarging PNGs, as they may become pixilated. PNGs should not be used for commercial printing but are appropriate for documents printed on desktop ink jet and laser printers as well as Internet usage.

Marketing Fonts

Word Processing Fonts

Campaign Fonts

Logo Fonts

Materials created using professional layout programs use the following fonts:

Materials created using standard-issue word processing programs use readily available, cross-platform fonts:

Selected display fonts are sparingly employed by the Marketing Department for usage restricted to advertising and special cases. Any campaign fonts must be preapproved by the Marketing Department.

Most logos feature fonts that have been manually manipulated and therefore cannot be reproduced without graphic design assistance. Do not attempt to recreate or replicate any logo.

Approved campaign font example:

Titillium is the default subbrand base font used for logo creation. All program and product logos must be channeled through the Marketing Department. Exceptions for fonts used in logo creation are rare and must be approved by the Marketing Department.

Titillium Text for titling, headlines, subheads, and body copy

Calibri for titling, headlines, and subheads

Frutiger for body copy, and any small-use font styles

Arial for body copy, and any small-use font styles

salad dressing Salads are healthy! Right? The greens and veggies are healthy but dressing the salad can be a nutritional pitfall. Four tablespoons of an average salad dressing, (a typical serving in a restaurant), easily can add 400 calories, 40 grams of fat (8 of them saturated), and 700 mg of sodium.

Dress-up Tips for Salads § Request dressings on the side when dining out to control the amount that you use. Use the “fork-dip method” rather than the “drowning your greens” method. c

§ Choose a dressing with the most flavor for the least amount of fat. Check the labels and compare. If you don’t like the fat-free or low-fat varieties, reduce the serving size. § Watch the sodium in salad dressings — some have as much as 800 mg in a 2 tablespoon serving. § When creating your own dressings, use buttermilk, fat-free or low-fat yogurt, or tofu. Substitute chicken or vegetable stock for half of the oil. Most vinaigrette dressings use a ratio of 1 part vinegar to 3 parts oil. Try reversing this ratio to 1 part oil and 3 parts vinegar. The difference is dramatic. You can reduce the fat and calories by two-thirds. § Check out the ingredient lists for the type of oils used, sulfites, MSG, HDL, Inc.
