These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, among other matters, the Company&#8217;s customers&#8217; requirements to use certain suppliers, the Company&#8217;s suppliers&#8217; responsiveness and cooperation with the Company&#8217;s due diligence efforts, the Company&#8217;s ability to implement improvements in its conflict minerals program and the Company&#8217;s ability to identify and mitigate related risks in its supply chain. If one or more of these or other risks materialize, actual results may vary materially from those expressed. For additional cautionary statements regarding other risk factors that could have an effect on the future performance of the Company, see the Company&#8217;s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;<font style="font-weight:bold;">SEC</font>&#8221;), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&#160;31, 2018 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

As required by Form SD, the Company has conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#8220;<font style="font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;">RCOI</font>&#8221;) regarding the conflict minerals included in the products during the Reporting Period, which the Company refers to as the &#8220;<font style="font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;">Subject Minerals</font>,&#8221; to determine whether any such Subject Minerals originated in the Covered Countries and/or whether any of the Subject Minerals were from recycled or scrap sources. Where applicable, the Company has conducted additional due diligence regarding the sources of the Subject Minerals. The results of the Company&#8217;s RCOI regarding the Subject Minerals, as well as the Company&#8217;s additional due diligence regarding the sources of such Subject Minerals, are contained in this Report, which is publicly available at www.cecoenviro.com/sec-filings.

The Company also exercised due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the Subject Minerals. The Company&#8217;s due diligence measures have been designed to conform to the framework in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chain of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas: Second Edition, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (the &#8220;<font style="font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;">OECD Guidelines</font>&#8221;).</p>

In the course of its business operations, the Company may purchase materials and components containing conflict minerals. These materials and components may, in turn, be included in the Company&#8217;s products. Because the Company does not purchase conflict minerals directly from mines, smelters or refiners, there are many third parties in the supply chain between the Company and the original sources of conflict minerals. As a result, the Company relies on its direct suppliers to provide information regarding the origin of any conflict minerals that are included in its products. In accordance with the OECD Guidelines and related guidance provided by the SEC, the Company worked with its direct suppliers to identify, where possible, the smelters and/or refiners and countries of origin of the Subject Minerals.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:5.7%;color:#000000;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">&#160;</p>

The Company then included additional questions regarding conflict minerals in its Supplier Questionnaire on Conflict Minerals, which the Company refers to as &#8220;<font style="font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;">Supplier Questionnaire</font>,&#8221; to determine whether each such Covered Supplier was supplying materials or components to the Company that contained Subject Minerals and, if so, to determine the source of such Subject Minerals. The Company&#8217;s Supplier Questionnaire requires suppliers, including potential suppliers, to, among other matters, confirm the source of any conflict minerals contained in materials or components supplied to the Company during the Reporting Period.</p>

The Company, with respect to the Reporting Period, reasonably determined that all of its segments&#8217; product groups contain Subject Minerals.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:5.7%;color:#000000;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">&#160;</p>

An escalation process was initiated with Covered Suppliers who continued to be non-responsive after the above contacts were made, or whose initial (or subsequent) response was not complete or otherwise warranted clarification or confirmation. Using a risk-based approach, the Company evaluated responses from the Covered Suppliers for plausibility, consistency, and gaps both in terms of which materials or components were stated to contain or not contain Subject Minerals, as well as the origin of those Subject Minerals. The Company engaged certain Covered Suppliers, holding discussions and reviewing the results of their internal due diligence efforts, to ensure that the Company&#8217;s inquiries regarding conflict minerals were understood and complied with.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:5.7%;color:#000000;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">&#160;</p>

Such representations included, from certain Covered Suppliers, the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (&#8220;EICC&#8221;) and Global e-Sustainability Initiative (&#8220;GeSI&#8221;) Conflict Minerals Due Diligence Template, indicating the facility at which the Subject Minerals were processed.</p>

In addition, of the Covered Suppliers that completed Supplier Questionnaires or provided similar representations, a minimal amount reported that the Subject Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of their products supplied to the Company. Although the Company received completed Supplier Questionnaires or similar representations from Covered Suppliers that listed smelter or refiner names and/or countries of origin for the Subject Minerals, such Covered Suppliers were unable to accurately report which specific smelters or refiners and/or countries of origin were part of the supply chain for the Subject Minerals.&#160;&#160;For example, the majority of Covered Suppliers reported their sourcing results on a company-wide basis, rather than on a product-specific basis, or were unable to determine the smelter or refiner and/or countries of origin for the Subject Minerals.&#160;&#160;A Covered Supplier&#8217;s failure to identify a specific smelter or refiner and/or country of origin at any point in its supply chain will drive an equivalent response for the Company and, therefore, the Company is unable to report any known smelters or refiners or countries of origin for the Subject Minerals at this time.&#160;&#160;The Company&#8217;s RCOI procedures are an evolving process.

Each division is responsible for managing the conflict minerals, if any, provided by its supply base and for identifying, where possible, the supplier of such conflict minerals in the Company&#8217;s materials or components. Using the Supplier Questionnaire, the Company engages suppliers of conflict minerals, communicates its reporting obligations with respect to conflict minerals and follows up with such suppliers to ensure ongoing compliance.</p>

As required by Form SD, the Company is reporting the findings of its RCOI and additional due diligence measures through the preparation of this Report. The Company&#8217;s internal team that manages conflict minerals engagement with the Company&#8217;s suppliers also works to address any significant due diligence findings as they arise. For example, as noted above, the Company conducted additional due diligence for certain Covered Suppliers who provided inadequate or incomplete initial responses to the Company&#8217;s RCOI. The Company uses its Supplier Questionnaires to monitor the use of conflict minerals in its supply chain. Data from the Supplier Questionnaires is used at the corporate, group and division levels to oversee the Company&#8217;s supplier base. In addition, the questionnaires provide key metrics to decision makers to assist with the Company&#8217;s conflict minerals reporting compliance and provide meaningful comparisons regarding supply chain transparency across the Company.</p>
