<<TDK-Lambda Environmental Philosophy>>
We protect the earth by taking care of nature and limited natural resources. This is the responsibility of all thepeople of the world.
TDK-Lambda declares that preserving the earth's environment is a top priority. We not only deal with issues ofcompany-wide, but each of us also participates actively in the activity as a member of the community.

Introduction
TDK group promotes activity for protection of the global environment.
We have entered an age in which protection of the global environment is one of the most important issues forcorporate activities in terms of achieving the sustainable development of humankind. Related efforts enhance
corporate value, and their steady accumulation contributes to the international community. In order to fulfill our
responsibility to the environment, at TDK we have stipulated an Environmental Policy and Environmental Vision.
The goal of Environmental Vision 2035 is “to halve the CO2 emission basic-unit in a life-cycle perspective by 2035”.
In our relations with suppliers in particular, with the aim of giving priority to the procurement of production partsand materials that contribute to reducing the environmental load, we established the TDK Green Procurement
Standard (First Edition) in April 1999 and request the cooperation of our suppliers in the creation of environmentconscious products.
In order to take account of changes in Japanese and international environment-related laws and regulations,as well as changes in social requirements and technological progress, we have conducted a revision of this document.
We request our suppliers to appreciate TDK’s environmental efforts and the contents of this document, and we lookforward to their continued cooperation by supply chain unity.

1. About the TDK-Lambda Green Procurement Standard
1-1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to give priority to the procurement of purchased items from suppliers that contributeto reducing the environmental load and fulfill social responsibility by clarifying chemical substances that areprohibited (“prohibited substances”) and chemical substances for which controlled content is required (“controlled
substances”), thereby further promoting green procurement activities by the TDK-Lambda Group.
1-2 Scope of Application
This document applies to business partners from whom the TDK-Lambda Group procures products or to whom it
consigns manufacture, etc. (hereafter referred to collectively as “suppliers”) and purchased items sold and deliveredby suppliers to the TDK-Lambda Group. Please note, however, that if the TDK-Lambda Group requires a specificstandard relating to chemical substance content in addition to this document, the specific requirement shall takeprecedence.
1-3 Definition of Terms
The terms in this document shall be defined as follows:(1) TDK-Lambda Group
TDK-Lambda Corporation and its affiliates, including overseas subsidiaries.
(2) Purchased items“Purchased items” are products sold and delivered by suppliers to the TDK-Lambda Group that conform to one of
the following four categories:(a) Chemical
A “chemical” is a substance or Preparation as explained in TITLE I Chapter 2 Article 3(1) and (2), respectively, of
the European Council’s No. 1907/2006 REACH regulation (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restrictionof Chemicals).
Ex. Metallic material, metallic oxide, resin pellet, paste, solder, binder, adhesive, paint, ink(b) Part
A “part” is an article as explained in TITLE I Chapter 2 Article 3(3) of the European Council’s No. 1907/2006
REACH regulation. Ex. Electronic parts, machinery parts, insulation tape and film(c) Packaging
Among (b) parts, “packaging” refers to items used for sending, protecting, and identifying TDK-Lambda products.
Ex. Trays, bags, buffer materials, staplers, cardboard boxes, reels, tape, binding bonds, wraps, labels, manuals, index
cards
Exceptions: Retrievable and reusable pallets, containers, and boxes that do not cause secondary contamination(d) Other purchased items
Among items sold and delivered by suppliers to the TDK-Lambda Group, “other purchased items” refer to items
that do not fall into any of the above three categories and for which either the TDK-Lambda Group designates
applicability of this document or the supplier declares applicability of this document.
Ex. Jigs and tools, office items, metal molds, equipment, and other items designated by the TDK-Lambda Group(3) Chemical substances-4-

“Chemical substances” refer to elements (single substances) and compounds (including alloys).
(4) Environment-related substances'Environment-related substances' are prohibited and controlled substances designated by national and internationallaws and regulations as having or having the potential to have an impact on human health, the environment orsociety, as designated by the TDK-Lambda Group.
(5) Prohibited substances
Among environment-related substances, 2-1 Prohibited substances - refers to substances prohibited by national andinternational laws and regulations as noted in the [Appendix] List of Specific Laws and Regulations.
(6) Content-controlled substances
Among environment-related substances, 'controlled substances' refers to environment-related substances whose use
is not restricted, but whose actual use must be monitored to ascertain whether or not they are being used and theconcentration of their content.
(7) Content“Content” refers to the fact that chemical substances are included in purchased items as ingredients or constituents.
(8) Intentional addition“Intentional addition” refers to the fact that a specified chemical substance is included in the purchased item for areason.
(9) Impurities
Among substances contained in purchased items, “impurities” refer to substances that cannot be totally removed
mechanically in the refining process or substances that occur in the synthetic reaction process and technically cannot
be totally removed.
Note: Although dopant, which is used in the manufacture of semiconductor devices, etc., is sometimes added
intentionally, the extremely small amount remaining in semiconductor devices is actually treated as an impurity.
(10) Non-applicability“Non-applicability” refers to an exception being made to the application of prohibited substance and contentcontrolled substance regulations if the supplier uses the substance only for a specific end use, accurately enters thecontained amount, and declares non-applicability.
(11) End use“End use” refers to purpose of use in the purchased item using the chemical substance. The existence or not ofprohibition, threshold levels, non-applicability, and so on are stipulated by end use in the annex.
Note: The end use in the purchased item using the chemical substance refers not to end use by the TDK-Lambda
Group but, for example, the addition of formaldehyde for making a purchased textile product. If the attached tableentry were as follows, content would be prohibited.

Applications(use) of substance andscope of the Standards
Textile product(12) Threshold level
The “threshold level” stipulated in the annex is the permissible concentration of the chemical substance contained-5-

in each subpart of a purchased item.
Note: Some laws define the threshold level as the ratio of concentration per total product weight rather than per
subpart. In this document, however, the definition is concentration ratio per subpart.
(13) Subpart
A “subpart” is a homogeneous material part that cannot be separated anymore.
(14) Homogeneous material
A “homogeneous material” is a material that cannot be mechanically separated into other materials. “Homogenous”
means “of uniform composition throughout,” and “cannot be mechanically separated” means that it cannot be
separated by unscrewing, cutting, shredding, grinding, polishing, etc.
Ex. Plastic, ceramic, glass, metal, plating film, paper, resin, ink, coating material, paint1-4 Guarantee(a) The supplier is required to “guarantee” that the purchased item conforms to this document and that informationin submitted documents is accurate and complete.
