<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">COMPANY OVERVIEW:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Owens-Illinois,&nbsp;Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;), through its subsidiaries, is the successor to a business established in 1903. The Company is the largest manufacturer of glass containers in the world with 75&nbsp;glass manufacturing plants in 21 countries. It competes in the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market and is the leading glass container manufacturer in most of the countries where it has manufacturing facilities.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company produces glass containers for alcoholic beverages, including beer, flavored malt beverages, spirits and wine. The Company also produces glass packaging for a variety of food items, soft drinks, teas, juices and pharmaceuticals. The Company manufactures glass containers in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colors and is active in new product development and glass container innovation.&#160; The sale of glass containers comprised approximately 99.5% of the Company&#146;s revenues in 2014. The Company believes that there are no conflict minerals that are necessary to any component that the Company manufactures or contracts to manufacture as part of its glass container business.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company also manufactures or contracts to manufacture glass making machines, molds and other parts related thereto (hereinafter, &#147;Machine&#148;).&#160; The Machine business comprised approximately 0.5% of the Company&#146;s revenues in 2014.&#160; The Company has determined that certain conflict minerals as defined in Form&nbsp;SD (meaning cassiterite, columbite-tantalite [also known as coltan], gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, and tungsten) were necessary to the functionality or production of certain of the Machines that the Company manufactures or contracts to manufacture during the Reporting Period.&#160; The Company refers in this report to any such conflict minerals as its &#147;necessary conflict minerals&#148; (other than any conflict minerals that are considered, under the Rule&nbsp;and pursuant to Form&nbsp;SD, to have been outside of the supply chain prior to January&nbsp;31, 2013).</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">SUPPLY CHAIN:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company does not purchase conflict minerals directly for the manufacture of its products.&#160; The Company purchases materials and products through an extensive supply chain and relies on its direct suppliers to provide information to the extent that conflict minerals are contained in components and materials supplied to the Company.&#160; Based on the Company&#146;s assessment of its Machine business, the Company believes that certain products manufactured or contracted to manufacture as part of the Machine business contain necessary conflict minerals.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Because the Company determined that conflict minerals were necessary to the functionality or production of certain products manufactured or contracted to manufacture within the Company&#146;s Machine business, as required under the Rule&nbsp;and pursuant to Form&nbsp;SD, the Company conducted, in good faith, a &#147;reasonable country of origin inquiry&#148; (&#147;RCOI&#148;) reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Company&#146;s necessary conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the &#147;DRC&#148;) or a country that shares an internationally recognized border with the DRC (each, a &#147;Covered Country&#148;) or were from recycled or scrap sources.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Based on the Company&#146;s review of the product categories within the Machine business, the Company focused on the electronics category in connection with possible conflict minerals.&#160; The Company identified 90 suppliers within the electronics category during the Reporting Period (the &#147;Electronics Suppliers&#148;).&#160; The Company then surveyed the Electronics Suppliers using the Template (as defined below) to obtain information regarding smelters and refiners that provide materials to the Company&#146;s supply chain.&#160; In accordance with the Rule, we performed additional due diligence.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Based on the RCOI, the Company determined that it had reason to believe that its necessary conflict minerals may have originated from a Covered Country and may not be from recycled or scrap sources.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">DESIGN OF DUE DILIGENCE:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risks Areas, Second Edition including the related supplements for gold and for tine, tantalum and tungsten (the &#147;OECD Guidance&#148;) has been recognized by the SEC as a &#147;nationally or internationally recognized due diligence framework&#148;.&#160; The Company&#146;s due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the OECD Guidance.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company has a Conflict Minerals Policy which has been posted on the Company&#146;s public website.&#160; As stated in the Conflict Minerals Policy, the Company is committed to working with its global supply chain to comply with the Rule.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .25in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">For non-responsive suppliers, the Company sent out a follow-up letter.&#160; Of the incomplete and inconsistent responses, the Company identified the two largest suppliers of electronics equipment to the Machine business and focused its efforts on following-up with them because they comprised 82% of the electronics equipment-related expenditures by the Machine business.&#160; The Company has contacted directly the persons managing the conflict minerals programs for these two suppliers in order to understand their efforts to mitigate any potential risks within their supply chains.&#160; As Electronics Suppliers provide updated information to us, we assess any risks described in their disclosures.</font></p>

Accordingly, the Company does not perform or direct independent third party audits of these entities within its supply chain and we rely on the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative&#146;s Conflict-Free Smelter Program.</font></p>
