The Rule&#160;was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to Conflict Minerals (hereinafter defined) as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the &#8220;Dodd-Frank Act&#8221;).  The Rule&#160;imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose manufactured products contain Conflict Minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of their products.  &#8220;Conflict Minerals&#8221; are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (&#8220;3TG&#8221;) for the purposes of this assessment.</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">1.&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Company Overview</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">This report has been prepared by management of Gibraltar Industries, Inc.

However, for a limited number of our products, the Company does purchase parts and components from suppliers, such as electronic components, motors, or other metals and substances which require the use of Conflict Minerals.  As a result, we determined that a small portion of our products, including electronically controlled ventilation products, powered ventilation products, motorized awnings, metal roofing products and electronically controlled parcel lockers, may contain Conflict Minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of these products.
