Under the leadership of the Company’s Manager for Product Integrity and Regulatory Compliance, the Company assembled a team to implement and administer the Company’s Policy on the Use of Conflict Minerals. For the Reporting Period, the team prepared a conflict minerals questionnaire to be completed by all of the Company’s Suppliers. The questionnaire and the Company’s Policy on the Use of Conflict Minerals were prepared in English and translated into additional languages that are used by the vast majority of the Company’s Suppliers. The policy and questionnaire were sent to all of the Company’s Suppliers.

●

The questionnaire asked Suppliers to certify in writing whether materials, products or components supplied to the Company included or contained necessary conflict minerals.

●

If so, the Supplier was asked to:

o

Provide a detailed description of the material, product and/or product component and the conflict mineral(s) used;

o

Certify whether the necessary conflict mineral(s) came from recycled material or scrap; or alternatively

Certify the company and country of origin of any necessary conflict minerals.

●

The Company received and reviewed responses from substantially all of its Suppliers.

●

The Company received responses from certain Suppliers that indicated that necessary conflict minerals were included in the Specified Products. Each such Supplier certified that, based on its internal data and supplier audit practices, those conflict minerals did not originate in the Covered Countries.

2.

The Company had no reason to believe that any necessary conflict minerals originated in the Covered Countries.
