The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to conflict minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and imposes reporting obligations on registrants whose manufactured products contain &#8220;conflict minerals&#8221; which are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. &#8220;Conflict minerals,&#8221; for purposes of the Rule, are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (&#8220;3TG&#8221;) for the purposes of this Report.</FONT></P>
