The Company&#8217;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 2022, 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&#47;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></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="height:72pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:72pt;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%;text-decoration:underline">Due Diligence</font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">PACB performed due diligence procedures to determine the Conflict Minerals status of the 3TG Minerals used in its products.
