Exchange Act (the &#147;Conflict Minerals Rule&#148;), which was adopted by the 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.
The Conflict Minerals Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on a company that files reports with the SEC under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (a &#147;public company&#148;), whose manufactured products contain Conflict Minerals
which are necessary to the functionality or production of its products. Conflict minerals are defined as gold, columbite-tantalite (&#147;coltan&#148;), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, tantalum, tin and tungsten
(&#147;Conflict Minerals&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a public company cannot establish that the Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the
Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (the &#147;Covered Countries&#148;), or from recycled and scrap sources, it must submit a Form SD which describes the reasonable country of origin inquiry completed. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a public company has reason to believe that any of the Conflict Minerals in its supply chain may have originated in the Covered Countries,
or if it is unable to determine the country of origin of those Conflict Minerals, then that company must exercise due diligence on the Conflict Minerals&#146; source and chain of custody. The company must annually submit a report to the SEC that
includes a description of those due diligence measures (&#147;Conflict Minerals Report&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

deposition, etching, cleaning, lithography, metrology, and inspection. The semiconductor industry continually faces new challenges, as products become smaller, more powerful and highly mobile. Ultra-thin layers, smaller critical dimensions, new
materials, 3D structures, and the ongoing need for higher yield and productivity drive the need for tighter process measurement and control, all of which MKS supports. We believe we are the broadest critical subsystem provider in the wafer
fabrication equipment ecosystem and address over 85% of the market. We have characterized our broad and unique offering as Surround the Wafer<SUP STYLE="font-size:75%; vertical-align:top">&reg;</SUP> to reflect the technology enablement we provide

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2012, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) issued its final rule under Section&nbsp;1502 of the 2010
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the &#147;Conflict Minerals Rule&#148;) imposing new disclosure and related supply chain due diligence requirements for public companies regarding their use of &#147;Conflict Minerals&#148;
in products they manufacture or contract to manufacture. The goal of this new rule is to curb the violent conflict and human rights abuses in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
(&#147;DRC&#148;)<SUP STYLE="font-size:75%; vertical-align:top">1</SUP> and adjoining countries that are being financed in part by the exploitation and trade of Conflict Minerals from that region. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Conflict Minerals Rule defines &#147;Conflict Minerals&#148; as cassiterite (tin), columbite-tantalite (tantalum), wolframite (tungsten),
their respective derivatives and gold (commonly referred to as the &#147;3Ts&amp;G&#148;). MKS, being a global provider of instruments, systems, subsystems and process control solutions that measure, monitor, deliver, analyze, power and control
critical parameters of advanced manufacturing processes to improve process performance and productivity for its customers, uses certain of these Conflict Minerals in the manufacturing of its products. MKS is committed to identifying any of its
suppliers who source Conflict Minerals from the DRC region from conflict sources. We expect our suppliers to partner with us in this endeavor regardless of whether they are subject to the new Conflict Minerals Rule by providing us with all necessary
declarations. We also expect our suppliers to pass this requirement on to their supply chain if they do not source directly from smelters, to determine the source of the Conflict Minerals. The process of mapping our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">end-to-end</FONT></FONT> supply chain is onerous because MKS deals with multiple tiers and a very large number of suppliers. However, MKS is committed to this effort and should MKS discover at any time that any of its
suppliers are sourcing materials from the DRC region from conflict sources, MKS will work with the supplier to end this practice and if the supplier refuses, MKS will work diligently to identify and partner with an alternative supplier. </P>

that seeking information about Conflict Minerals&#146; smelters and refiners in our supply chain represents the most reasonable effort we can make to determine the mines or locations of origin of the Conflict Minerals in our supply chain. Based on
the information provided by MKS suppliers in 2023, <U>Exhibit A</U> includes 355 smelters and refiners used in our supply chain that were identified by Responsible Minerals Initiative as &#147;Conformant,&#148; &#147;Active,&#148; or
&#147;Known.&#148; &#147;Conformant&#148; smelters and refiners are those smelters and refiners that have undergone a third-party audit, have systems in place to assure sourcing of only DRC conflict free materials, and are therefore identified as
&#147;Conformant&#148; with Responsible Minerals Initiative&#146;s Process Assessment Program. &#147;Active&#148; smelters are those that have agreed in writing to produce information and are actively progressing towards a third-party audit.
&#147;Known&#148; smelters and refiners are known to Responsible Minerals Initiative but not currently classified as &#147;Conformant&#148; or &#147;Active.&#148; Despite our due diligence efforts, we know this list is incomplete as several of our
suppliers either did not return a completed survey or returned an incomplete survey which did not include smelter or refiner names. We expect that with more time, more upstream suppliers will be in a better position to identify relevant smelters and
refiners and will in turn pass that information further down the supply chain so that this list will be more complete. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To date, we have
