Although our reportable segments have similar operating systems and are effectively managed by a central corporate function, each segment operates independently and their respective manufacturing locations have separate supply chains. Our factories utilize various software and hardware systems, and have different methods and tools for storing data such as bills of materials, specifications and designs for their products. The three reportable segments have different standard terms and conditions in their respective purchase orders and supply contracts. We do not purchase 3TG directly from smelters or refiners (&#8220;SORs&#8221;), therefore we must rely on our suppliers to provide information on SORs as well as the origin of 3TG contained in parts or products supplied to us, including sources of 3TG that are supplied to them from their upstream suppliers. </font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As required by Form SD, we conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#8220;RCOI&#8221;) regarding 3TG included in our Products during the Reporting Period, which we refer to herein as the &#8220;Subject Minerals,&#8221; to determine whether any of the Subject Minerals originated in the DRC Region and&#47;or whether any of the Subject Minerals may be from recycled or scrap sources.

We reviewed the responses and made further inquiries of our suppliers as necessary, contacting some suppliers multiple times for more information. Certain supplier survey responses did not list all of the smelters which were sources of 3TG used in their supply chain. We will continue to pursue suppliers who did not submit survey responses, or who submitted incomplete survey responses.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">If a supplier confirmed 3TG content in the raw materials, components, or products supplied to the Company, then the response was further reviewed for identification of the source region, and finally, if from the DRC Region, whether the smelter was verified as complying with the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (&#8220;RMAP&#8221;), formerly known as the Conflict-Free Smelter Program of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (&#8220;RMI&#8221;). The Company made a determination of the reasonableness of the reply based on information provided, or in combination with previous knowledge of the supplier&#8217;s sources. There were 223 suppliers which confirmed 3TG content, only one of which reported sourcing 3TG from non-compliant SORs.&#160;Notwithstanding the Company&#8217;s reasonable efforts, some suppliers have not provided sufficient responses to the Company&#8217;s inquiries about 3TG content and the country of origin.

It is ITT&#8217;s policy that the Company will not knowingly manufacture Products that contain Conflict Minerals. The Conflict Mineral Policy states our commitment to responsibly source materials from suppliers that share our values. ITT expects its business dealings with suppliers and contractors to be based on fairness, honesty, lawfulness, safety, environmental stewardship and social consciousness, including respect for human rights. The Conflict Mineral Policy reflects our expectation that our Tier 1 suppliers will perform due diligence similar to ours on the sources of 3TG in their supply chains, and our expectation that they will require their own suppliers to do the same. It further provides generally that when a robust and validated conflict-free supply chain is established or a robust mineral tracing program is developed, we expect our Tier 1 suppliers to procure only minerals using that validated supply chain, so as to avoid the use of Conflict Minerals.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;padding-left:9pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-9pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Internal Management Teams</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Members of our business, legal, procurement, and sourcing functions comprised a core team that was involved in various phases of compliance with the Rule.

Our engineering, design and manufacturing processes require the recording of necessary 3TG contents of newly-developed parts included in our products. Our businesses maintain an electronic repository to retain relevant documentation concerning our Conflict Minerals compliance efforts and determinations.

In order to identify and assess the risks in our supply chain, we first identified our Products as well as additional products for sale that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture in 2023 that may contain 3TG necessary for their functionality or production.&#160;We conducted research on our supply chain. In cases where we determined that 3TG is necessary and contained in one of our parts, we identified that specific mineral and flagged both the part and finished product containing that part in our system. We then identified our Tier 1 suppliers that supplied the Company with the parts and products considered to be in scope of the Rule. This identification process is repeated annually, with the assistance of product engineers, to ensure we capture new and modified Products.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We rely on our suppliers to provide information regarding the source and presence of necessary 3TG in our Products and during 2023 we engaged a third-party data collection and aggregation provider to assist us in conducting portions of the due diligence on our supply chain. Information was collected using the Template, which requested our Tier 1 suppliers to identify the SORs and countries of origin of the necessary 3TG they supplied to the Company, and to determine whether any such necessary 3TG came from recycled or scrap sources. We used a risk-based approach to evaluate responses from suppliers for plausibility, consistency, and gaps both in terms of which materials were stated to contain or not contain 3TG, as well as the origin of the 3TG. Through this process, we remain engaged with our suppliers from a quality and compliance perspective. Reportable segments have amended or are in the process of amending the terms and conditions in purchase orders and supply chain contracts to require the supplier to disclose the country of origin for 3TG content.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;padding-left:9pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-9pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Step 3&#58; Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We expect our suppliers to source minerals from socially and environmentally responsible sources and we believe in establishing and maintaining long-term relationships with suppliers. However, if as a result of our due diligence process we determine that a supplier is violating our Conflict Mineral Policy or if a supplier confirms that it sourced 3TG in the DRC Region, but fails to provide sufficient assurances that it is doing business with a certified DRC conflict-free smelter, we may suspend or discontinue the use of the supplier or require it to commit to a suitable corrective action or risk mitigation plan.
