<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">In an effort to curb the violence and exploitation occurring in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (&#8220;DRC&#8221;) and adjoining regions, the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;) adopted rules pursuant to Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the &#8220;Dodd-Frank Act&#8221;). Section 1502 of the legislation addresses Conflict Minerals and requires companies to publicly disclose information related to the use in their products of minerals originating in the DRC and the countries adjoining the DRC (&#8220;Covered Countries&#8221;), including the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Zambia, Angola, Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda. The minerals currently subject to the SEC&#8217;s disclosure requirements, referred to as &#8220;Conflict Minerals&#8221; are columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, wolframite, gold and their derivatives, namely tin, tantalum and tungsten (&#8220;3TG&#8221;).</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Consistent with guidance of the SEC, we have not obtained an independent private sector audit of this Conflict Minerals Report.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Business Overview</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">ASML designs, develops, integrates, markets and services advanced lithography systems used by our customers&#8212;the major global integrated circuit manufacturers&#8212;to create chips that power a wide array of electronic, communication and information technology products. Our product development strategy focuses on the development of product families based on a modular, upgradeable design and encompasses our PAS 5500, TWINSCAN, TWINSCAN NXE lithography systems and YieldStar enhancement systems.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Our PAS 5500 lithography systems (which we no longer manufacture but continue to refurbish), comprise advanced wafer steppers and Step-and-Scan systems equipped with i-line, KrF and ArF light sources for processing wafers up to 200 mm in diameter and are employed in volume manufacturing and in special applications to achieve semiconductor design nodes requiring imaging at a resolution down to 90 nm.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">The modular, upgradeable design philosophy of the PAS 5500 product family has been further refined and applied in the design of our TWINSCAN lithography systems, which are the basis of our current and next-generation Step-and-Scan systems. TWINSCAN systems are equipped with i-line, KrF and ArF light sources for processing wafers up to 300 mm in diameter and are capable of extending semiconductor shrink technology down to 38 nm and beyond with multiple patterning techniques. The dual-stage advantage of TWINSCAN immersion systems enables our customers to benefit from the process enhancement of immersion while continuing to use familiar and proven technology. ASML&#8217;s TWINSCAN NXE platform is the industry&#8217;s first production platform for extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL), currently offering 13 nm resolution with off-axis illumination and 2.0 nm match machine overlay performance.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Certain 3TG minerals are necessary to the functionality and production of our products. For example, gold is used in coating critical electronic connectors to enhance connectivity performance. Each system also contains tin, used for welding electronic components on printed circuit boards and also within a critical component of our systems with the latest technology. Although certain 3TG minerals are indeed necessary to the functionality and production of our products, we believe that these 3TG minerals are insignificant in terms of volume relative to other parts and components of the systems we produce.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">We outsource the majority of components that are needed to produce our systems, and we are only able to determine whether the 3TG minerals included in our systems are derived from a Covered Country through information provided to us by our suppliers.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">ASML&#8217;s reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#8220;RCOI&#8221;) was designed to determine whether any of the minerals that are necessary to the functionality and production of our products may have originated from the Covered Countries.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Our RCOI primarily consisted of conducting a supply chain survey using the reporting template provided by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (&#8220;EICC&#8221;) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (&#8220;GeSI&#8221;) together, the (&#8220;EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template&#8221;).</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">We also utilized resources provided by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (&#8220;CFSI&#8221;), including the Conflict-Free Smelter Program (&#8220;CFSP&#8221;). The CFSP uses a third-party audit firm to identify smelters and refiners that have systems in place to assure sourcing of only conflict-free materials, to provide additional country of origin information.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Due Diligence</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">The results of the RCOI indicated that some of the 3TG minerals included in our systems may originate from the Covered Countries subject to further investigation and due diligence. Therefore, we conducted supply chain due diligence with 117 suppliers whose parts/ components/ products most likely contain 3TG, on the source and chain of custody of the Conflict Minerals, in a manner consistent with the framework promulgated by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (&#8220;OECD&#8221;) and its <font style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; FONT-STYLE: italic">Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas</font> (&#8220;OECD Guidance&#8221;).</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">To create awareness of ASML&#8217;s requirements, methods and the importance of supply chain due diligence on Conflict Minerals, we communicated with our selected suppliers in a variety of ways to inform them of our reporting obligations with respect to Conflict Minerals under Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act and the Form SD. We referred them to the ASML Conflict Minerals Statement and we sent additional information describing our approach to creating a more sustainable supply chain.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">In an effort to encourage supplier understanding and compliance with the regulations, we also developed and distributed a set of Conflict Minerals Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">In an effort to further improve our due diligence procedures and results, ASML continued to work in close collaboration with several other technology-related Original Equipment Manufacturers (&#8220;OEMs&#8221;) and Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises (&#8220;SMEs&#8221;) in the Brainport Development region in and around Eindhoven, the Netherlands. There is a strong, technology focus in the region and a great deal of overlap exists in the regional supplier bases of the OEMs and SMEs. Through the coordination efforts of Brainport Development, these OEMs and local SMEs jointly seek to enhance awareness and effectiveness of the OEM due diligence efforts. The (shared) suppliers were also encouraged to utilize the same, standard Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (&#8220;CMRT&#8221;) to attempt to map and trace the supply chain back to the smelter level.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">The efforts between regional OEMs and members of Brainport Development resulted in further alignment of the due diligence approaches of the regional OEMs regarding timing, communication (i.e., supplier engagement letters and frequently asked questions) and use of the CMRT for the due diligence inquiry.</div>

The majority of the suppliers surveyed were not able to completely map and trace their supply chains back to the smelters used or to otherwise identify smelters supplying 3TG minerals within the timeframe provided. We will continue to encourage our suppliers to trace the origins of the 3TG minerals within their supply chain.</div>

These organizations support information sharing among suppliers and OEMs, including the identification and conflict-free status of 3TG smelters and refiners. ASML is a member of the EICC and fully supports such efforts.</div>

<div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, sans-serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 15.75pt">Through our membership and participation in both the EICC and the CFSI, we also continue to support the development of the CFSP, which aims for certification of smelters and promotion of responsible sourcing from the Covered Countries, such that the legitimate miners involved in those countries do not suffer. Since the start of the CFSI, representative(s) of the CM Team have attended CFSI workshops and joined CFSI meetings on a regular basis to remain informed of developments and best practices in this area. Workshops and meetings are organized by the EICC, focusing on in-region traceability and certification programs, practical aspects of Conflict Minerals legislation and reporting and compliance best practices.</div>
