all of the suppliers from which we acquired the Conflict Minerals used in the Covered Products using a variation of the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template developed by the Responsible Business Alliance, formerly the Electric Industry Citizenship
Coalition, and the Global <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">e-Sustainability</FONT> Initiative. The survey was designed to enable us to assess whether the Conflict Minerals used in our Covered Products were from scrap or recycled sources or
originated in the Covered Countries. Our supply chain with respect to the Covered Products is complex, and there are many third parties in the supply chain between the ultimate manufacture of the Covered Products and the original sources of the
Conflict Minerals. We do not purchase Conflict Minerals directly from mines, smelters, or refiners. Accordingly, we must rely on our suppliers to provide information regarding the origin of Conflict Minerals that are included in the Covered
Products. We believe that our suppliers and the smelters and refiners of the Conflict Minerals are best suited to identify the sources of Conflict Minerals, and we have taken steps to identify the smelters and refiners in our supply chain by
obtaining or seeking to obtain information from our suppliers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">All supplier responses were reviewed in detail, and, where the information provided by the
supplier appeared to be outdated, incomplete, incorrect or not trustworthy, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">follow-up</FONT> inquiries were made in an effort to obtain current, complete, correct and trustworthy information. Based on our <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-house</FONT> assessment, we concluded that 98 of our raw and sourced material suppliers provided materials that potentially contained tin that was not from scrap or recycled sources. We surveyed all 98 <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> suppliers and achieved an 85% response rate, with 85% of respondents reporting that the materials they sell to us do not contain tin. We received completed questionnaires from five of those suppliers that
said that the materials they sell to us contain tin. To date, six suppliers have provided us with smelter lists. Each of the smelters identified by these suppliers is listed on the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative&#146;s &#147;conformant
smelter&#148; list. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Notwithstanding our efforts, we have been unable to obtain (1)&nbsp;evidence of the sources of the tin used by the identified smelter
that is not on the conformant smelter list and (2)&nbsp;sufficient information from the five suppliers that did not identify the names and locations of the smelters or other sources of the tin used to determine if the tin they supplied to us is from
scrap or recycled sources or are from the Covered Countries. We are, however, still working closely with our suppliers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We intend to continue to engage
with our suppliers to obtain complete, correct and trustworthy information about the supply chain, and we intend to directly engage with those smelters and refiners identified by our suppliers to verify mineral sources of the Covered Products, when
necessary. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This Report has not been subjected to an independent private sector audit because such an audit is not required. </P>
