<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; COLOR: #000000; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt">With respect to the four responses regarding conflict minerals originating or possibly originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining company, we contacted the vendors.&#160; All four vendors provide products from the electronic component industry with extensive product lines, and may be primarily a distributor for a large number of lower level manufacturers in the supply chain. In each case we purchase relatively few item SKUs compared to total vendor offerings.&#160; The vendors informed us that they have made efforts to ensure conflict free sourcing, expect suppliers to source responsibly, or are in various stages of compliance.&#160; None of the four vendors directly provide product specific reports as to the sourcing of their conflict minerals.&#160; These conditions create a level of uncertainty related to the term "possibly originating" as it relates to the specific products the registrant purchases from such vendors.&#160; As a result (and even though we were able to satisfy ourselves, by further researching the manufacturers sourced by such vendors, that certain specific products sourced from these vendors did not fall into the fourth category above), the registrant does not have sufficient information to assess whether all of the products it purchased from such vendors did not contain some amount of one or more conflict minerals originating or possibly originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.&#160; The total value of the registrant's purchases from these vendors (not including purchases from these vendors of products that we were able to remove from the fourth category by further researching manufacturers) represents an aggregate of 0.09% of total purchases from all of the registrant's vendors in 2016.</div>
