			<font style="display: inline;font-size:10pt;">PACB has conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#x201C;RCOI&#x201D;) reasonably designed to determine if 3TG Minerals used in its products originated in the Covered Countries.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#x2019;s RCOI process began with an evaluation of its suppliers that provided materials, components or products that became part of products PACB manufactured or contracted to manufacture in 2019, which the Company knew contained or were likely to contain 3TG Minerals. This evaluation consisted of examining internal records such as bills of materials and other product specifications, and performing a qualitative review of purchasing records and/or information provided by the suppliers. Based on its evaluation, the Company then surveyed the suppliers of those materials, components or products which it concluded contained or were likely to contain 3TG Minerals. The suppliers were asked to report on the presence of any 3TG Minerals in the goods sold to PACB. In cases where PACB confirmed that 3TG Minerals were present, it asked the applicable supplier to submit information to PACB about the country of origin of the 3TG Minerals.</font>

Additionally, 5 stated that their products do not contain 3TG Minerals, 15 stated that at least some of their 3TG Minerals were sourced from Covered Countries and 13 stated that they were uncertain as to the origin of the 3TG Minerals in their products or did not provide sufficient information to adequately determine the source. Of the 15 suppliers that stated that at least some of their 3TG Minerals were sourced from Covered Countries, 8 noted that all of their products were from sources certified as being conflict-free, actively obtaining conflict-free certification, or had complete control from mine to production.&nbsp;&nbsp;The remaining sources were uncertified or had an unknown certification status. However, PACB has not identified any known instances in which any 3TG Minerals were sourced directly or indirectly from armed groups of the conflict regions of the Covered Countries.</font>

As a result, many of those smelters identified by PACB&#x2019;s suppliers in Company Level declarations may not actually be involved in the products supplied to PACB.&nbsp;&nbsp;For the one supplier that indicated that its product may contain 3TG sourced from the Covered Countries that responded at the Product Level, it noted that 3TG Minerals sourced from Covered Countries were from sources certified as being conflict-free, actively obtaining conflict-free certification, or had complete control from mine to production.&nbsp; </font>

PACB has been unable to determine the origin of all 3TG Minerals used in certain integrated circuits and other components used in the manufacturing of its instruments and related consumables. This was due to a lack of information from its suppliers to conclude whether the 3TG Minerals originated in the Covered Countries and, if so, whether the 3TG Minerals were from recycle or scrap sources, were DRC conflict-free, or have not been found to be DRC conflict-free. </font>
