utilized the Responsible Business Alliance (&#147;RBA&#148;) and Global <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">e-Sustainability</FONT> Initiative (&#147;GeSI&#148;) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (&#147;CMRT&#148;) version 6.22 or higher for data

engaged Assent Compliance to complement internal management processes. Assent Compliance&#146;s online system is used to identify suppliers in our mineral supply chains and the relationships between them, collect, store and review information on 3TG
mineral sourcing practices, track information on smelters and refiners (&#147;SORs&#148;), and flag risks based on SOR sourcing practices. This system utilized the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (&#147;CMRT&#148;) 6.22 or higher for data
collection. This system is designed to allow collection and storage of data on supply chain circumstances, which can be updated to reflect changing realities within the supply chain, such as new customer-supplier relationships, new products, etc.
