(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) performed a reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) with its suppliers. The RCOI process included written correspondence with the Company&#8217;s suppliers inquiring as to whether any conflict minerals are used or not used in materials procured by the Company, whether any conflict minerals are obtained solely from recycled or scrap materials and whether the minerals are obtained from the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country (a &#8220;covered country&#8221;). The fuel cell power plants sold by the Company consist of fuel cell modules and balance of plant. The fuel cell modules do not utilize conflict minerals as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain components of the balance of plant utilize trace amounts of industrial metals that are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as conflict minerals.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:11pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 12pt 0pt;">The information discussed above is also available at www.fuelcellenergy.com.

(&#8220;FuelCell Energy&#8221;, &#8220;Company&#8221;, &#8220;we&#8221;, &#8220;us&#8221; and &#8220;our&#8221;). FuelCell Energy is a global leader in delivering environmentally responsible distributed baseload energy platform solutions through our proprietary fuel cell technology. Today, we offer commercial technology that produces clean electricity, heat, clean hydrogen, and water and is also capable of recovering and capturing carbon for utilization and/or sequestration, depending on product configuration and application. </p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 12pt 36pt;">FuelCell Energy, based in Connecticut, was founded in 1969 as a New York corporation to provide applied research and development services on a contract basis. We completed our initial public offering in 1992 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1999. We began selling stationary fuel cell power plants commercially in 2003.</p><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="width:18pt;padding:0pt;"></td><td style="vertical-align:text-top;white-space:nowrap;width:18pt;padding:0pt;"><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;margin-bottom:12pt;margin-top:0pt;">2.</p></td><td style="padding:0pt;"><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;margin-bottom:12pt;margin-top:0pt;">Products Overview</p></td></tr></table><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 36pt;">Our product portfolio is based on our carbonate electrochemical platform. &#160;Depending on its configuration, this platform supports power generation and combined heat and power applications using a variety of fuels, including a 50/50 blend of hydrogen and natural gas or biogas blends, biogas, renewable natural gas, and natural gas. The fuel cells utilized in these platforms react fuel electrochemically, without combusting the fuel, which avoids emissions produced by combustion such as nitrogen oxides (&#8220;NOx&#8221;), sulfur oxides (&#8220;SOx&#8221;) and particulates. &#160;In the electrochemical process, fuel and air are reacted in separate chambers in the fuel cell stack. The reactions producing CO<sub style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:sub;">2</sub> happen before the fuel is mixed with air, and the CO<sub style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:sub;">2</sub> is concentrated and therefore easy to recover and capture. &#160;Our carbonate platforms are enabled to recover and capture their own CO<sub style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:sub;">2</sub> for use or sequestration before it is emitted into the air. &#160;These platforms are unique in their ability to also capture CO<sub style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:sub;">2</sub> from an external source, utilizing the flue stream of a power plant or an industrial boiler as a replacement for ambient air intake.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;"><font style="visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</font></p><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td style="width:18pt;padding:0pt;"></td><td style="vertical-align:text-top;white-space:nowrap;width:18pt;padding:0pt;"><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;margin-bottom:12pt;margin-top:0pt;">3.</p></td><td style="padding:0pt;"><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;margin-bottom:12pt;margin-top:0pt;">Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry</p></td></tr></table><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 12pt 36pt;">We conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the tin, tantalum, tungsten and/or gold (&#8220;3TG Metals&#8221;) contained in the Covered Products by asking FuelCell Energy&#8217;s direct suppliers to provide answers to the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (&#8220;CMRT&#8221;) from the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (&#8220;CFSI&#8221;). The CFSI CMRT is generally regarded as the most widely-used reporting tool for conflict minerals content and sourcing information and was developed by several of the world&#8217;s leading consumer electronics companies. The CMRTs received from FuelCell Energy&#8217;s suppliers were reviewed for completeness and consistency of answers. Suppliers were required to provide corrections and clarifications where needed in follow-up communications. Suppliers who remained non-responsive to email reminders were contacted by telephone and offered assistance. This assistance included, but was not limited to, providing further information about our Conflict Minerals Compliance Program, explaining why the information was being collected, explaining how the information would be used and clarifying how the needed information could be provided. If, after these efforts, a given supplier still did not provide the information requested, an escalation process was initiated. The escalation process consisted of direct outreach to these suppliers by FuelCell Energy employees requesting their participation in our Conflict Minerals Compliance Program. As such, we believe our process was reasonably designed and performed in good faith, but there are inherent limitations in the information provided to us by third parties, including the possibility of information being inaccurate, incomplete or falsified despite our efforts to validate and confirm the information.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 36pt;">A total of 133 suppliers were contacted as part of our RCOI process.
