reporting template (CMRT) developed by the RMI, as appropriate. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because we are an industrial equipment supplier, many of our products are not

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><U>Reasonable Country of Origin Survey Process</U> </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We evaluated our products and determined that certain products manufactured during calendar year 2020 were manufactured with materials or components that
contain, or likely contain, conflict minerals, i.e., tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold, that are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The areas of conflict mineral usage within our supply chain were identified based on the
results of previous surveys. Future surveys will focus efforts on these areas. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We identified <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> suppliers
that we believed provided materials or components containing conflict minerals. Based on commodity analysis, responses from prior years, and a focus on the highest spend suppliers, 36% of our total direct material spend was classified as <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope.</FONT> Given the size and complexity of our supply chain, we focused on our largest suppliers, ranked by the amount that we paid to each supplier. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We surveyed our suppliers utilizing the CMRT and our supplier portal, Nordson&#146;s Supply Chain Central (SCC). The SCC software was used by the majority of
product lines to automate surveying our suppliers, and to collect and analyze the survey data. Suppliers were provided training materials on the SCC website regarding conflict minerals and the CMRT. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As part of our grievance mechanism, we rely on RMI to provide us with information regarding grievances shared among group members, and we encourage our
suppliers to send inquiries or other information concerning conflict minerals to <U>productcompliance@nordson.com</U>. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the period covered by this
Report, we prioritized collection of responses from <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> suppliers representing approximately 36% of our total direct material spend. For this group of suppliers, we had about an 89% response rate. Based
on the information obtained pursuant to the reasonable country of inquiry process described above, we do not have sufficient information to determine the country of origin of all of the conflict minerals in our supply chain. We continue to work to
improve our reasonable country of origin process as described in more detail below. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><U>OECD Step 2 &#150; Identify and assess risk in the supply
chain</U> </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">An escalation process was initiated with those surveyed suppliers who continued to be nonresponsive after the above contacts were made, or
whose initial (or subsequent) response was not complete or otherwise warranted clarification or confirmation. We evaluated responses from the surveyed suppliers for plausibility, consistency, and gaps both in terms of which materials or components
were stated to contain or not contain conflict minerals and the origin of such conflict minerals. We will be engaging certain surveyed suppliers, to hold discussions and review the results of their internal due diligence efforts, to ensure that our
inquiries regarding conflict minerals were understood and complied with. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>III. Due Diligence Framework </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our due diligence process has been designed to conform, in all material respects relevant to the disclosure requirements under the Rule, with the OECD Due
Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>IV. Due Diligence Undertaken </B></P>

on their smelter and refiner information obtained from CMRT declarations. If supplier information indicated that they used conflict minerals from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, including Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, the Republic
of Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia (collectively, the &#147;Covered Countries&#148;), then we used the flagship program of the RMI, the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) and general public information to
determine a smelter or refiner&#146;s conflict minerals program status. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If, through our smelters lists, we discover that certain of our products contain
conflict minerals that finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries, or we cannot definitively deem a product to be free of conflict minerals that finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries, we will analyze the adverse
impact of this determination pursuant to the standards set forth in our Conflict Minerals Policy and Supplier Code of Ethics. </P>
