**Brief Description of Supply Chain**

The products that we manufacture are typically highly engineered, complex and contain thousands of parts from a vast network of direct suppliers around the world. There are generally multiple tiers of suppliers between the 3TG mines, smelters, and our direct suppliers. As a downstream purchaser, we are limited to relying on our direct suppliers to work with their upstream suppliers to provide us with accurate information about the origin of 3TG in the components, parts, or assemblies we purchase. Most of our supplier purchase contracts contain terms of years, but we include when possible new contract terms with flow-down requirements that compel our suppliers to support our due diligence efforts with respect to 3TG content.

**2. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry**

We conducted a risk-based engineering analysis of all of the products we manufacture or contract to manufacture to identify all direct suppliers providing us with items known to contain, or with a high probability of containing, 3TG. We then requested all of our identified direct 3TG suppliers to provide information to us regarding their 3TG content and smelters using the template developed by the Responsible Business Alliance® (RBA®) and The Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI), known as the RBA-GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the "Template"). The Template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters and refiners that provide material to a manufacturer's supply chain. It includes questions regarding a direct supplier's conflict-free policy, its due diligence process, and information about its supply chain such as the names and locations of smelters and refiners as well as the origin of 3TG used by those facilities. Our supplier outreach efforts also included web-based training opportunities and escalation procedures for non-responding suppliers.

Based on this reasonable country of origin inquiry, we concluded that we do not have sufficient reason to believe 3TG materials in our supply chain did not originate in a Covered Country or were from recycled or scrap sources. Accordingly, the Company further pursued its supply chain inquiry and conducted due diligence on that supply chain as required by the Rule. There was significant overlap between our reasonable country of origin inquiry efforts and our due diligence efforts, described below.

**3. Due Diligence**

Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the due diligence framework presented by The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") in the publication *OECD (2013) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Second Edition, OECD Publishing* ("OECD Guidance") and the related Supplements for gold and for tin, tantalum and tungsten, including the Final Downstream Report on one-year pilot implementation of the Supplement on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten.

**<u>OECD Step 1: MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS</u>**

**Vendor Expectations**

We have adopted a conflict minerals policy statement related to our sourcing of 3TG and expect all our suppliers to comply with that policy statement. In addition, our standard procurement contracts require compliance with all applicable legal requirements and Emerson's Supplier Code of Conduct which is also available on our website indicated above.

**Internal Team**

We have established a management system to support supply chain due diligence related to 3TG. Our management system includes an attorney who oversees a team that coordinates communication and follow up with suppliers as well as representatives from each of our businesses, supply chain, engineering, law, and internal audit. Together, this team is responsible for implementing our Conflict Minerals compliance strategy.

**Control Systems**

Together with other major manufacturers, we are a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative ("RMI") that is working to develop conflict-free supply chains. We have established a records retention policy with respect to relevant documents. We continue to support the development of a common Template to better allow for digital information-sharing systems.

**Grievance Mechanism**

Employees and third parties may report a concern related to business conduct issues, including concerns related to conflict minerals, at the following website: <u>https://www.tnwgrc.com/emerson/.</u> Alternatively, any employee or third party may contact the Board of Directors or any of its Committees directly by writing to the Corporate Secretary at: Emerson Electric Co. Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, 8027 Forsyth Blvd., St. Louis, Missouri, 63105, USA.

**Supplier Engagement**

We maintain a database of all our 3TG suppliers and a record of their responses to our 3TG inquiries. This information allows us to monitor the progress of our 3TG suppliers in providing 3TG information and whether that progress is consistent with our values and policies, the OECD Guidance, the Rule, and applicable laws.

**<u>OECD Step 2: IDENTIFY AND ASSESS RISK IN THE SUPPLY CHAIN</u>**

**Survey Responses**

Where responses were received from our suppliers, they were provided using the Template as well as other forms. We reviewed the results to determine which required further engagement. The criteria included non-responses, incomplete responses as well as inconsistencies within the data reported by those suppliers. We then engaged with as many of those suppliers as possible, seeking responses, additional information or clarifications as needed. We conducted multiple rounds of inquiries.

A portion of our responding suppliers provided a list of smelters they used to process 3TG content contained in the components supplied to their customers. These responses were provided primarily on a company-wide basis and included the names of facilities listed by our suppliers as smelters or refiners. It was not possible to identify smelters by products with certainty. Where the smelter identification number was provided, we verified that the facility was listed on the RMI smelter list included in the Template. We notified in writing those suppliers where the smelter identification number provided was not listed on the RMI smelter list. We flagged those facilities not certified "conflict free" under the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process ("RMAP") and asked those facilities to participate in the RMAP.

**Efforts to Determine Mine or Location of Origin**

We believe that requesting our direct suppliers to complete the Template and cross-checking to the RMAP database of conflict free smelters represents the best reasonable means to attempt to determine the mines or locations of origin of 3TG in our supply chain. We have reached this conclusion based on the recommendations resulting from the OECD Final Downstream Report on one-year pilot implementation of the Supplement on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten.

**<u>OECD Step 3: DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT A STRATEGY TO RESPOND TO RISKS</u>**

**Risk Management**

We have adopted and implemented a risk management plan that outlines the Company's responses to identified 3TG risks described above. Senior management is briefed about our due diligence efforts on a regular basis. We have established a conflict minerals program, which includes trainings for relevant employees.

**Engagement Results**

For this reporting period, to date, we are not aware of any instance where it was necessary to temporarily suspend trade or disengage with a supplier under our conflicts minerals policy. We continue to engage in regular risk assessment through our suppliers' annual data submissions, publicly available information and, where appropriate, targeted follow-up activities, as well as ongoing supplier engagement.

------

**<u>OECD Step 4: CARRY OUT INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY AUDIT OF SMELTER/REFINER'S DUE DILIGENCE PRACTICES</u>**

We do not typically have direct relationships with 3TG smelters and refiners and therefore do not perform audits of these entities. We support audits conducted by third parties through participation in the RMI.

**<u>OECD Step 5: REPORT ON SUPPLY CHAIN DUE DILIGENCE</u>**

This Conflict Minerals Report constitutes our annual report on our 3TG due diligence, is available on our website at <u>www.emerson.com</u> and is filed with the SEC. Information on our website does not constitute part of this document.

**4. Steps to be Taken to Mitigate Risk** 

We intend to continue to take the following steps to improve the due diligence conducted to further mitigate the risk that the 3TG in our products finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to include a conflict minerals flow-down clause in new or renewed supplier contracts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to increase our focus on suppliers representing the highest risk of providing products containing 3TG;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to engage directly with suppliers and provide them information and training resources to attempt to increase the response rates and improve the content of the supplier survey responses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to engage with and review our relationships with suppliers not cooperating with our due diligence efforts or found to be providing us with components or materials containing 3TG from sources that support conflict in the Covered Countries, and take action, where necessary or appropriate, to comply with our conflict minerals statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to participate in the Responsible Minerals Initiative in order to increase the number of smelters and refiners participating in the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to apply the principles and use the framework provided by the OECD and continue working with our suppliers, and relevant trade associations to define and improve best practices and encourage responsible sourcing of 3TG.
