engineering services, technology solutions and advanced manufacturing services
to original equipment manufacturers (&#8220;OEMs&#8221;).&#160; The OEM industries we serve
include aerospace and defense, medical technologies, complex industrials, test
and instrumentation, next-generation telecommunications and high-end computing.</font></font></p>

our customers containing Necessary Conflict Minerals.&#160; We primarily purchase
component parts used in our manufacturing services through direct suppliers or
authorized distributors from around the world.&#160; These component parts are
typically finished goods or manufactured materials.&#160; We generally do not
procure raw ore or unrefined Conflict Minerals, and therefore we do not have
direct relationships with mines or smelters of Conflict Minerals found in our
customers&#8217; products.&#160; These mines or smelters are several distribution levels
removed from us in the supply chain; therefore, we must rely on the many direct
suppliers, supply-chain intermediaries and industry initiatives for information
on these mines or smelters.&#160; Further, the OEM typically specifies the
components and materials required to manufacture their products, as well as the
particular component and material suppliers.&#160; As a result, we typically have
little or no control over the selection of these components, materials and
suppliers.&#160; In these cases, we must rely on our customers and their selected
suppliers for Conflict Minerals information.</font></font></p>

an RCOI on our Necessary Conflict Minerals.&#160; Our RCOI utilized a risk-based
approach to solicit Conflict Minerals information from 630 of our suppliers and
targeting more than 90% of our component and materials procurement expenditures
during the reporting year.&#160; We requested Conflict Minerals information from
these suppliers via the Responsible Business Alliance (&#8220;RBA&#8221;) (formerly known
as the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition) and Global e-Sustainability
Initiative (&#8220;GeSI&#8221;) Responsible Minerals Initiative (formerly known as the
Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (&#8220;CFSI&#8221;)) Conflict Minerals Reporting
Template (&#8220;CMRT&#8221;).&#160; We reviewed and analyzed all CMRTs received, including some
with missing or incomplete information, errors, or containing inaccuracies or
implausible information.&#160; We made multiple contact attempts with non-responsive
suppliers, as well as requests for revised responses where appropriate.&#160; We
ultimately received responses from approximately 87% of our targeted supplier
group (representing approximately 89.5% of our reporting year component and
materials procurement expenditures).&#160; Many of these suppliers provide
&#8220;company-level&#8221; CMRT responses that include Conflict Minerals information for
all supplier products sold during the reporting year, even though we purchased
only a limited subset of such supplier&#8217;s products.&#160; We also utilized a
third-party software provider to assist us in the data collection effort,
review, verification and follow-up contacts.&#160; </font></font></p>

responding suppliers dealt with non-certified smelters known to source Conflict
