<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: 0.25in; text-indent: 0in; text-align: justify">The
Rule requires companies to disclose their use of conflict minerals (as defined below) if those minerals are &ldquo;necessary to
the functionality or production of a product&rdquo; manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by those companies. The conflict
minerals covered by the Rule are tantalum, tin, gold, tungsten (&ldquo;3TG&rdquo;) or any other mineral or its derivatives determined
by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively,
the&nbsp;&ldquo;Covered Countries&rdquo;).</P>

Company is far removed from the sources of ore from which minerals are produced, and the smelters or refineries (&ldquo;SORs&rdquo;)
that process those ores. The efforts undertaken to identify the country(ies) of origin of those ores reflect the Company&rsquo;s
circumstances and position in the supply chain. The Company must rely on information obtained from direct suppliers, who in turn,
must obtain information from upstream suppliers, on the origin of the 3TG used in the products manufactured for the Company. Such
information may be inaccurate or incomplete.</P>

part of the Company&rsquo;s RCOI process, the Company developed a risk-based approach that focused on direct suppliers of finished
products, as well as suppliers that are reasonably likely to supply components or trims containing one or more of the 3TG metals
(together, the &ldquo;In-Scope Suppliers&rdquo;) which could have originated from the Covered Countries.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: 0.25in; text-indent: 0in; text-align: justify">In-Scope
Suppliers were asked to complete the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative&rsquo;s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the &ldquo;CMRT&rdquo;).
The Company believes that the CMRT is generally regarded as the most common reporting tool for conflict minerals content and sourcing
information worldwide, developed by several of the world&rsquo;s leading consumer electronics brands. As such, the Company believes
the process was reasonably designed and performed in good faith.</P>
