<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Rule&nbsp;13p&#45;1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
provides that a company must file this specialized disclosure report if it manufactures, or contracts to manufacture, products
for which one or more conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of the company&#8217;s products. Rule&nbsp;13p&#45;1
defines &#8220;conflict minerals&#8221; as (i)&nbsp;columbite-tantalite (or coltan), cassiterite, gold and wolframite, or their
derivatives, which are currently limited to metallic forms of tantalum, tin and tungsten; or (ii)&nbsp;any other mineral or its
derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining
country. As specified under Rule&nbsp;13p&#45;1, Veeco Instruments&nbsp;Inc. conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin
inquiry that we believe was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the necessary conflict minerals contained in our products
manufactured in calendar&nbsp;year 2019 originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, or were from
recycled or scrap sources. Our Conflict Minerals Report, which discusses this inquiry and other information, is provided as an
exhibit to this report and is also publicly available on our website at http://ir.veeco.com/financial-information/sec-filings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">This Conflict Minerals Report (this &#8220;Report&#8221;) of
Veeco Instruments Inc., including its subsidiaries (collectively, &#8220;Veeco&#8221; or &#8220;we&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221;)
has been prepared pursuant to Rule&nbsp;13p-1 and Form&nbsp;SD promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the reporting
period January&nbsp;1, 2019 through December&nbsp;31, 2019 (the &#8220;Reporting Period&#8221;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Rule&nbsp;13p-1, through Form&nbsp;SD, requires the disclosure
of certain information if a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which certain &#8220;Conflict Minerals&#8221;
(as defined below) are necessary to the functionality or production of such products. Form&nbsp;SD defines &#8220;Conflict Minerals&#8221;
as: (i)&nbsp;columbite-tantalite (or coltan), cassiterite, gold and wolframite, or their derivatives, which are currently limited
to metallic forms of tantalum, tin and tungsten; or (ii)&nbsp;any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary
of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively, the &#8220;Covered
Countries&#8221;). Veeco&#8217;s operations, including the operations of its consolidated subsidiaries, may at times manufacture,
or contract to manufacture, products for which Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products
(collectively, its &#8220;products&#8221; and, individually, a &#8220;product&#8221;). As required by Form&nbsp;SD, Veeco has conducted
a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the Conflict Minerals included in its products during the Reporting
Period, which are referred to in this Report as the &#8220;Covered Minerals,&#8221; to determine whether any of such Covered Minerals
originated in the Covered Countries and/or whether any of such Covered Minerals may be from recycled or scrap sources. Where applicable,
Veeco has conducted additional due diligence regarding the sources of the Covered Minerals. The results of Veeco&#8217;s reasonable
country of origin inquiry regarding the Covered Minerals, as well as its additional due diligence regarding the sources of the
Covered Minerals, are contained in this Report.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Prior to initiating our RCOI, we retained a regulatory compliance
information management company to assist in structuring the process and administering data collection.&nbsp; Our inquiry began
with a review of all of our suppliers.&nbsp; We focused our RCOI on the relevant suppliers that, due to the nature of their business,
utilize Covered Minerals.&nbsp; We provided these suppliers with a questionnaire based on the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition-Global
e-Sustainability Initiative Conflict Minerals Common Reporting Template (the &#8220;EICC-GeSI Template&#8221;). The EICC-GeSI Template
is regarded as the most commonly accepted reporting tool for conflict minerals content and sourcing information worldwide and was
developed by several of the world&#8217;s leading consumer electronics companies.&nbsp; The questionnaire asked the suppliers,
among other things, to disclose the origin of any Covered Minerals used in their manufacturing processes and to identify the Covered
Minerals processing facilities within their supply chain.&nbsp; We also asked them, if accurate, to represent that their Covered
Minerals did not originate from a Covered Country.&nbsp; We reviewed questionnaires received for completeness and consistency of
answers.&nbsp; Many of our suppliers&#8217; responses were company level declarations and therefore it is possible that the information
they provided includes smelters/refiners whose Covered Minerals are not utilized in our products.&nbsp; Certain surveyed suppliers
reported that the Covered Minerals identified in their supply chain originated from recycled or scrap sources and thus did not
require further due diligence.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our due diligence approach was designed to generally align with
the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Third Edition
(&#8220;OECD Guidance&#8221;). &nbsp;The OECD Guidance is an internationally-recognized due diligence framework consisting of a
multi-step, risk-based process, certain aspects of which differ depending in part on the position of a company in the supply chain.
Veeco is a &#8220;downstream&#8221; company, which refers to supply chain participants from the smelter to the retailer, in contrast
to those &#8220;upstream,&#8221; that is, from the mine to the smelter. Key elements of Veeco&#8217;s due diligence approach are
described below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Certain smelters were identified as high risk due to potential
sourcing from the Covered Countries. However, because many of our suppliers provided company-level responses to Veeco&#8217;s conflict
minerals information requests, it is uncertain as to whether these facilities are in our supply chain. We are continuing to work
with our suppliers to determine the status of the facilities relative to Veeco products. Should these smelters be present in our
supply chain, Veeco will reemphasize our conflict minerals policy to the relevant suppliers and encourage them to either find alternate
sources or request that the smelters be audited.</P>
