<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the &ldquo;Rule&rdquo;), as amended, RF Industries, Ltd. (&ldquo;RFI&rdquo;) undertook due diligence to determine
the conflict minerals status of the necessary conflict minerals used in its cable assembly and interconnect business for calendar
year 2015. RFI conducted an analysis of its products and found that the SEC defined &ldquo;conflict minerals&rdquo; used in its
products consisted of tin and gold. Further, RFI has determined in good faith that for calendar year 2015, its conflict minerals
status resulting from its due diligence efforts shows such conflict minerals did not originate in the Democratic Republic of the
Congo or an adjoining country.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RFI&rsquo;s due diligence measures were based on the Electronic
Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global e-Sustainability (&ldquo;EICC/GeSI&rdquo;) initiative with the smelters and refiners
of conflict minerals who provide tin and gold to our suppliers. As a company in the cable assembly and interconnect business, RFI
is several levels removed from the actual mining of conflict minerals. RFI does not make purchases of unrefined conflict minerals
and makes no purchases in the Covered Countries (as defined in the Rule).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RFI&rsquo;s due diligence measures included a Reasonable Country
