<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Synopsys, Inc. (referred to as &#147;Synopsys,&#148; &#147;we,&#148; and &#147;our&#148; in this report) has submitted this Conflict Minerals Report for the
year ended December&nbsp;31, 2018 in order to comply with Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> was adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) to implement conflict minerals disclosure requirements, as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> imposes reporting obligations on SEC
registrants whose manufactured products contain conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. Conflict minerals are currently defined as gold, cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), wolframite, and
their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, and tungsten (which, together with gold, are referred to as the 3TG metals). The definition includes these minerals regardless of their geographic origin or whether or not they fund armed
conflict. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1,</FONT> we conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the
conflict minerals that were necessary to the functionality or production of the products we manufactured, or contracted to manufacture, in order to ascertain whether these conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an
adjoining country (the Covered Countries) and financed or benefited armed groups in any of these countries. Our due diligence measures are described in this Conflict Minerals Report. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a result of an order issued by the SEC on May&nbsp;2, 2014, registrants are not required to identify products as &#147;DRC conflict free,&#148; having
&#147;not been found to be &#145;DRC conflict free,&#146;&#148; or &#147;DRC conflict undeterminable,&#148; and Synopsys makes no such identification of its products in this report. Synopsys has not obtained an independent private sector audit of
its Conflict Minerals Report because, under guidance provided by the SEC&#146;s Division of Corporate Finance on April&nbsp;29, 2014, an audit is not required unless a registrant voluntarily describes its products as &#147;DRC conflict free.&#148;
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Company Overview </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Synopsys, Inc. provides products and services used by designers across the entire silicon to software spectrum, from engineers creating advanced semiconductors
to software developers seeking to ensure the security and quality of their code. We are a global leader in supplying the electronic design automation software that engineers use to design and test integrated circuits, also known as chips. We also
offer semiconductor intellectual property (IP) products, which are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-designed</FONT> circuits that engineers use as components of larger chip designs rather than designing those circuits themselves. We provide
software and hardware used to validate the electronic systems that incorporate chips and the software that runs on them. To complement these offerings, we provide technical services and support to help our customers develop advanced chips and
electronic systems. We are also a leading provider of software tools and services that improve the security and quality of software code in a wide variety of industries, including electronics, financial services, media, automotive, medicine, energy
and industrials. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Although we are primarily a software, IP, and service provider, we also offer hardware systems that engineers can use to simulate the
chips they are in the process of designing. This allows engineers to test and verify the behavior of chips, or begin to develop software for them, before the chips have been manufactured. Hardware products make up a relatively small percentage of
our overall revenue. The customers for our hardware products are typically semiconductor and electronic systems companies, not consumers. Our hardware products are used as part of our customers&#146; internal design processes and are not integrated
into our customers&#146; products. Each of our hardware products is an electronic hardware board or system. We have determined that some or all of the 3TG metals can be found in all of our hardware products and are necessary to such hardware
products&#146; functionality. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Supply Chain </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our hardware products depend on a highly complex supply chain, and we are separated by many levels in the supply chain from the smelters and refiners that
supply the underlying raw materials for our products. We rely on our direct suppliers for information on the origin of the 3TG metals contained in the products supplied to us. It may take time for many suppliers to verify the origin of their 3TG
metals because of the complexity of the supply chain. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Conclusion of Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the 2018 reporting year, we sought to survey all of the direct suppliers for our hardware products regarding the sources of their 3TG metals. A significant
number of our suppliers did not provide us with sufficient data on the smelters and refiners in their supply chains. In addition, a significant number of the smelters and refiners that were identified by our suppliers are not yet conformant with the
assessment protocols of the Responsible Minerals Initiative&#146;s (RMI) Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP), resulting in uncertainty about the mines or locations of origin for the minerals used by these smelters and refiners. Based upon
the results of our reasonable country of origin inquiry, however, we have reason to believe that the 3TG metals contained in our hardware products may have originated from the Covered Countries. </P>

relationship with 3TG metal smelters or refiners, and because our hardware business does not represent a significant part of our business, in comparison to our software products and services, we rely on industry-wide initiatives to improve supply
chain transparency and encourage responsible sourcing of minerals, particularly the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA). For the 2018 reporting year, we used the RMI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) to survey our direct suppliers
regarding the origin of the 3TG metals contained in the products supplied to us. The RMI identifies upstream participants in the supply chain and validates smelters and refiners as conformant with the RMAP. As part of our due diligence program for
the 2018 reporting year, we checked smelters and refiners identified by our direct suppliers against the RMI&#146;s conformant smelter and refiner lists (Conformant Smelter and Refiner Lists). </P>

we engaged a third-party vendor to conduct outreach with our direct suppliers and manage the supplier survey process. The vendor provided our suppliers with access to its Conflict Minerals Supplier Resource Center, through which our suppliers were
able to review our conflict minerals policy, receive training regarding compliance with our conflict minerals program, and obtain information on conflict minerals reporting requirements, the RMAP, and the CMRT. The vendor oversaw the surveying of
our direct suppliers, which included <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">e-mail</FONT> and phone contact escalations for unresponsive suppliers and requests for further information or clarification from suppliers that provided incomplete or
inconsistent responses. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Grievance Mechanism </I></B></P>

</B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The complexity of our products and supply chain makes it difficult for us to map our supply chain. We rely on our direct suppliers to provide us with
information about the sources of the 3TG metals contained in the products they supply. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Identifying Relevant Suppliers </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the 2018 reporting year, we sought to survey all of the direct suppliers of our hardware products. Additionally, we identified high-priority suppliers that
made up a significant percentage of our hardware product spending (High-Priority Suppliers). High-Priority Suppliers received an enhanced review in our due diligence process, which we believe is consistent with a risk-based approach to due
diligence. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Information Requests </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We used the
CMRT to survey our direct suppliers. The CMRT was developed to facilitate consistent disclosure regarding supplier sourcing of 3TG metals and to enable companies to comply with the requirements of Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1.</FONT>
The CMRT can be viewed in several languages and includes extensive written instructions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Reviewing Supplier Information </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our third-party vendor reviewed our direct suppliers&#146; responses for completeness and consistency. Synopsys also reviewed these responses against an
internally developed list of &#147;red flags&#148; designed to identify responses that are incomplete, implausible, or that indicate heightened risk, such as responses reporting sourcing of 3TG metal from a Covered Country. High-Priority Suppliers
were reviewed for additional red flags. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Smelter and Refiner Assessment </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our third-party vendor reviewed a consolidated list of the smelters and refiners identified by our direct suppliers and compared the smelter and refiner names
against the RMI&#146;s list of standard smelter and refiner names (the Smelter Reference List) in order to assess the quality of the information provided to us and determine whether all identified smelters and refiners were, in fact, smelters and
refiners. Our third-party vendor further compared smelter and refiner names against the Conformant Smelter and Refiner Lists. Validation under the RMAP is voluntary, and the RMAP makes no conclusions about the conflict status of sourcing by a
smelter or refiner that is not on the Conformant Smelter and Refiner Lists. We also reviewed the countries of the identified smelters and refiners, as provided by our direct suppliers, to see if they are located in a high-risk area, such as in or
adjacent to the Covered Countries. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>3.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Designing and Implementing a Strategy to Respond to Risks </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our conflict minerals program includes risk mitigation measures. For the 2018 reporting year, our expectations regarding cooperation with our due diligence
process were communicated to our direct suppliers in our conflict minerals policy (available on our website and through our third-party vendor&#146;s Conflict Minerals Supplier Resource Center), through a cover letter accompanying the CMRT sent to
suppliers, and through <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">web-based</FONT> training offered by our third-party vendor. As described above, we reviewed our direct suppliers&#146; responses for red flags. Our review was heightened for High-Priority
Suppliers. We followed up with suppliers whose responses exceeded a specified number of red flags or whose responses otherwise indicated heightened risk, such as responses reporting the sourcing of 3TG metal from a Covered Country. Suppliers that
exceeded red flag limits for the immediately preceding and current reporting years, or that otherwise presented heightened risk, were identified to relevant hardware product managers. We will evaluate, in light of all relevant factors, whether to
continue our relationship with such suppliers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The results of our due diligence process have been reviewed by our conflict minerals program governance
team. This report and a summary of our results have been reported to our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">co-CEOs,</FONT> CFO, General Counsel, and board of directors. We will evaluate our risk mitigation framework each year to determine if there
are steps we can take to improve the completeness and accuracy of the information we receive. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our suppliers identified 157 gold refiners, 44 tantalum smelters, 87 tin smelters, and 46 tungsten smelters. We compared these identified smelters and
refiners against the RMI&#146;s Smelter Reference List, and 100% of such smelters and refiners appear on the RMI&#146;s Smelter Reference List. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We also
compared these identified smelters and refiners against the RMI&#146;s Conformant Smelter and Refiner Lists, as of May&nbsp;1, 2019, and approximately 64% of gold refiners, 91% of tantalum smelters, 84% of tin smelters, and 85% of tungsten smelters
are conformant with the RMAP assessment protocols. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Countries of Origin of Conflict Minerals </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The attached <U>Appendix</U> lists the country locations of the smelter and refiner facilities identified by our direct suppliers, as indicated on the Smelter
Reference List. The locations of these facilities do not necessarily indicate the countries of origin of the 3TG metals processed by such facilities. If a smelter or refiner is not conformant with the RMAP assessment protocols or certified under a
similar initiative, it may not be possible to draw a reliable conclusion about the ultimate source of its metals. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, a majority of suppliers
provided smelter and refiner information at a company or divisional level, rather than at a product level. We therefore cannot be sure whether all of the identified smelters and refiners provided 3TG metal that was included in the products actually
supplied to us. For these reasons, we have incomplete information regarding the countries of origin of our conflict minerals. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Efforts to Determine

supply materials for our products, we have determined that surveying our direct suppliers with the CMRT and collecting the resulting smelter and refiner information is the most reasonable available approach to determining the mines or locations of
origin of 3TG metals in our supply chain. We rely on the RMI&#146;s RMAP to identify and validate smelters and refiners that source 3TG metals as conformant with the RMAP assessment protocols. </P>
