The Company conducted detailed analyses of its products&#x2019; bills of materials and other available information on product composition to determine the Conflict Minerals content of its products.

For 2024, direct suppliers that posed a reasonable risk of having provided materials, components or products which may contain Conflict Minerals were covered.

Based on our survey, 228 of such Targeted Suppliers, or approximately 92%, submitted a complete response to the CMRT. If a Targeted Supplier did not provide a response to the CMRT, follow up requests were sent to individual Targeted Suppliers pursuant to an escalation process. Completed Targeted Supplier responses were reviewed for completeness and internal consistency. Overall, responses were assigned a rating of low, medium, or high risk based on the contents and completeness of the response as well as the likelihood the Targeted Supplier may be sourcing from the Covered Countries. As a result of the Company&#x2019;s RCOI, the Company has reason to believe that some Targeted Suppliers in its supply chain of in-scope products or components of such products may be sourcing Conflict Minerals from Covered Countries. However, for the period covered by this Form SD and Report, the Company was unable to determine the specific source of the Conflict Minerals due to insufficient information. Accordingly, the Company undertook the due diligence process described below.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:5.65pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">&#160;</font></p><div class="item-list-element-wrapper" style="margin-left:0.07013888888888892in;display:flex;margin-top:0.05pt;justify-content:flex-start;align-items:baseline;margin-bottom:0;min-width:0.1298611111111111in;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:1.6607641936818311%;word-break:keep-all;display:inline-flex;justify-content:flex-start;">3.</font><div style="width:100%;display:inline;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">Design of Due Diligence Framework</font></div></div><p style="margin-left:27.95pt;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">The Company&#x2019;s due diligence framework is based upon the OECD Framework </font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">and the Responsible Minerals Initiative standard for assessing risk</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">.</font></p></div></div>
