The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to conflict minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act).  The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose manufactured products contain conflict minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of their products.  Conflict Minerals are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite,  wolframite, gold and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG or Conflict Minerals).  These requirements apply to registrants whatever the geographic origin of the Conflict Minerals and whether or not they fund armed conflict.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">If a registrant can reasonably determine that the Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (the  Covered Countries), or from recycled and scrap sources, they must file a Form SD which describes the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry process that is the basis for such determination.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">If, after completing its RCOI,  a registrant knows or has reason to believe that any of the Conflict Minerals in their supply chain may have originated in the Covered Countries, then the registrant must exercise due diligence on Conflict Minerals&#8217; source and chain of custody.  The registrant must annually submit a report, Conflict Mineral Report (CMR), to the SEC that includes a description of those due diligence measures.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:6px;padding-top:2px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Forward-Looking Statements </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:6px;padding-top:2px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements may relate to, among other things, capital expenditures, cost reductions, cash flow, and operating improvements and are indicated by words or phrases such as &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;projects,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;management believes,&#8221; &#8220;the company believes,&#8221; &#8220;the company intends,&#8221; and similar words or phrases. These statements are subject to inherent uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated at the date of this news release. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: economic and political consequences resulting from terrorist attacks and wars; levels of industrial activity and economic conditions in the U.S. and other countries around the world; pricing pressures and other competitive factors, and levels of capital spending in certain industries - all of which could have a material impact on order rates and IDEX&#8217;s results, particularly in light of the low levels of order backlogs it typically maintains; its ability to make acquisitions and to integrate and operate acquired businesses on a profitable basis; the relationship of the U.S. dollar to other currencies and its impact on pricing and cost competitiveness; political and economic conditions in foreign countries in which the company operates; interest rates; capacity utilization and the effect this has on costs; labor markets; market conditions and material costs; and developments with respect to contingencies, such as litigation and environmental matters. The forward-looking statements included here are only made as of the date of this release, and management undertakes no obligation to publicly update them to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. Investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented here.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Company Overview</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">This report has been prepared by management of IDEX Corporation (herein referred to as &#8220;IDEX,&#8221; the &#8220;Company,&#8221; &#8220;we,&#8221; &#8220;us,&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221;).

The Company is an applied solutions business that sells an extensive array of pumps, flow meters and other fluidics systems and components and </font></div><br><div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:right;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1</font></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><a name="s3d2645d7ce614e0f965197d85e7cd55e"></a><div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div></div><br><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;padding-top:8px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">engineered products to customers in a variety of markets around the world. All of the Company&#8217;s business activities are carried out through wholly-owned subsidiaries.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The Company has three reportable business segments: Fluid&#160;&amp; Metering Technologies, Health&#160;&amp; Science Technologies and Fire&#160;&amp; Safety/Diversified Products. Within our three reportable segments, the Company maintains six platforms.  The Fluid&#160;&amp; Metering Technologies segment contains the Energy, Water (comprised of Water Services &amp; Technology and Diaphragm &amp; Dosing Pump Technology), and Chemical, Food&#160;&amp; Process platforms, as well as the Agricultural group (comprised of Banjo). The Health&#160;&amp; Science Technologies segment contains the IDEX Optics&#160;&amp; Photonics, Scientific Fluidics and Material Processing Technologies platforms, as well as the Sealing Solutions and the Industrial (comprised of &#160;Micropump and Gast) groups. The Fire&#160;&amp; Safety/Diversified Products segment is comprised of the Dispensing, Rescue, Band-It, and Fire Suppression groups.&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Our products contain a wide variety of components from a number of sources globally.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Supply Chain</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">IDEX is several layers removed from the mining and smelting of the Conflict Minerals, mainly purchasing components already assembled for integration into our manufacturing process.   Due to this complexity, IDEX relies heavily on our direct suppliers to provide information on the origin of the 3TG contained in components and materials supplied to us - including sources of 3TG that are supplied to them from lower tier suppliers.  IDEX expects that applicable direct suppliers will cooperate with our due diligence efforts in support of our Conflict Minerals commitment and have communicated this expectation to our suppliers.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;&#32;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">As described below, we are working with applicable direct suppliers to insure they provide their 3TG sourcing information.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">It is not practicable to conduct a survey of all our suppliers and we believed a reasonable approach would be to conduct a survey of the suppliers who represented the majority of our expenditures in 2013.  In addition, we included suppliers where the nature of the component, or the location of the supplier, indicated that those components were likely to contain 3TG.  We surveyed direct suppliers representing the top 80% of our 2013 expenditures for direct components.  We conducted an electronic survey of those suppliers using a customized/tailored survey based on the template developed by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI), known as the CFSI Reporting Template (the Template).  The Template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company&#8217;s supply chain.  It includes questions regarding a company&#8217;s Conflict Minerals policy, engagement with its direct material suppliers, and potential 3TG within its products.  In addition, the Template contains questions about the origin of Conflict Minerals included in its products, as well as supplier due diligence.  Written instructions were included in the electronic survey.  The Template is being used by many companies in their due diligence processes related to Conflict Minerals.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">We are unable with absolute assurance to determine the origin of the 3TG in our products and therefore cannot exclude the possibility that some may have originated in the Covered Countries.  For that reason, we are submitting to the SEC a Conflict Minerals Report (CMR) as an Exhibit to Form SD.
