"To identify, assess and respond to risks in the supply chain, we undertook the following measures:
· We conducted a supply chain survey, which involved all of our high-risk suppliers as described in Form SD. This survey was based on the Electronics Industry Citizenship Coalition/Global e-Sustainability Initiative Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.
· The responses received from our suppliers about the country of origin of the Necessary Conflict Minerals provided to us were reviewed to assess their reliability.
· Our segment team subjected survey responses to additional due diligence measures when we had reason to believe that suppliers may have provided Necessary Conflict Minerals that originated from the Covered Countries and that were not from recycled or scrap sources. All of the surveyed suppliers provided us with information about all or part of the smelter or refiner (“SORs”) that were used in the supply chain. We have no reasons to believe that the responses provided to us were inaccurate. However, we acknowledge that some of our suppliers have yet to completed tracing their respective supply chains to determine all of the SORs which may have supplied conflict minerals.
· Our executive management team in charge of the Conflict Minerals program was informed of the nature and overall risk of supplier responses received. Management reporting materials were prepared summarizing the results of the risk assessment process."
