			<font style="display: inline;color:#000000;font-size:11pt;">We undertook a process to identify any necessary Conflict Minerals, and we conducted a RCOI by requesting and receiving information from our suppliers about the origin or source of their Conflict Minerals, as well as information about their Conflict Minerals policies and procedures. Information is provided by suppliers using a Conflict Minerals Reporting Template, as developed and published by the Responsible Minerals Initiative Responsible Minerals Assurance Program. Through this process, as of May 29, 2020, seven of our suppliers indicated that Conflict Minerals were added or used in the product or in the production process. Three of these suppliers certified to our reasonable satisfaction that the Conflict Minerals did not originate in the Covered Countries. Two of these suppliers indicated that they obtained Conflict Minerals from the Covered Countries, and two of these suppliers were unable to determine whether the Conflict Minerals originated in the Covered Countries.
