 as through our suppliers. The armed conflict and human rights atrocities that proliferate and are funded by the exploitation of natural resources in the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries (“DRC”) are unacceptable and any manufacture of product connected with this will not be tolerated.

Commonly known conflict minerals are those such as tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold. Conflict minerals originating from the DRC must not be included in materials or products supplied to the Company. We are committed to ensuring an ethical and diverse supply chain that is focused on responsible mineral sourcing. We require all of our suppliers who manufacture raw metal materials containing tantalum, tin, tungsten or gold to implement their own conflict mineral policies. All such suppliers are required to undertake reasonable due diligence within their supply chains to ensure that the minerals are not being sourced from mines in conflict areas. We support the traceability and transparency of such information so that our customers can be assured that the metals used in their products are not contributing to any conflicts and come from sustainable sources.
