F5 Networks, Inc.
Conflict Minerals Report
Year Ended December 31, 2014

Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (the Report) for F5 Networks, Inc. ("F5 Networks," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our") is presented for the reporting period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 to comply with Rule 13p-1 (the Rule) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For the purpose of the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI), we initiated supply chain inquiries in July 2014 and continued to receive data through April 2015. F5 Networks maintains an ongoing data gathering and refresh program to ensure up to date data is captured throughout the year. For the purpose of this report, conflict minerals are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG).
If any conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by a registrant or contracted by a registrant to be manufactured, then:
If the registrant can establish that the conflict minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (the Covered Countries), or from recycled and scrap sources, they must submit a Form SD which describes the RCOI completed.
If the registrant has reason to believe that any of the conflict minerals in their supply chain may have originated in the Covered Countries, or if they are unable to determine the country of origin of those conflict minerals, then the issuer must exercise due diligence on the conflict minerals' source and chain of custody. The registrant must annually submit a Conflict Minerals Report (CMR), to the SEC that includes a description of those due diligence measures.
The report presented herein is not audited as the Rule provides that if a registrant's products are “DRC conflict undeterminable” in reporting years 2013 and 2014, the CMR is not subject to an independent private sector audit.
1. Company Overview
F5 Networks is the leading developer and provider of software-defined application services. The Company’s core technology is a full-proxy, programmable, highly-scalable software platform called TMOS, which supports a broad array of features and functions designed to ensure that applications delivered over Internet Protocol (IP) networks are secure, fast and available. The Company’s TMOS-based offerings include software products for local and global traffic management, network and application security, access management, web acceleration and a number of other network and application services. These products are available as modules that can run individually or as part of an integrated solution on the Company’s high-performance, scalable, purpose-built BIG-IP appliances and VIPRION chassis-based hardware, or as software-only Virtual Editions. The Company also offers DDoS protection, application security and other application services by subscription on its cloud-based Silverline platform. In connection with its products, the Company offers a broad range of support services including consulting, training, installation and maintenance.
2. Hardware Product Overview
All of our purpose-built hardware products are designed to enhance the performance of our software. Currently we offer two types of hardware configurations: BIG-IP appliances; and our chassis-based VIPRION products. Both BIG-IP and VIPRION run TMOS and support all of our product software modules. We also sell specialty appliances that integrate specific software services and are only available as standalone products.
3. Supply Chain Overview
We rely upon our suppliers to provide material declarations and information on the origin of 3TG contained in components and materials supplied to us, including materials and 3TG that are supplied to them from sub-tier suppliers.
We have adopted the standard Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) developed by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI) and requested that all suppliers complete the form. Suppliers that are known or suspected to provide components that contain 3TG were considered undetermined unless a completed CMRT form was received. Suppliers known not to use metal in products sourced by F5 Networks were asked to provide a CMRT form, even if only to state no use. In cases where these suppliers did not provide a CMRT form but a material declaration is on file demonstrating no 3TG use, they were

1

Exhibit 1.01

considered conflict mineral free. Packaging suppliers are excluded from the Rule, and though we have asked for CMRT forms, they are excluded from this declaration and the data provided herein.
We contracted with GreenSoft Technologies, Inc. (GreenSoft) to gather data from our suppliers, as well as provide to our suppliers training on the reporting rules and guidance on completing the CMRT form. This is the second year of the partnership with GreenSoft, and we have increased the number of suppliers responding as well as the completeness of the data within those responses.
4. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry and Conflict Mineral Status
The above SEC defined conflict minerals, which are tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG) are necessary to the functionality of our products. Therefore, the products we manufacture are subject to the reporting obligations of Rule 13p-1.
After conducting a good faith RCOI for calendar year 2014, we have concluded that our supply chain remains “DRC Conflict Undeterminable." We have reached this conclusion for two reasons:
We were unable to determine the origin of all of the 3TG used in our products.
Our supply chain includes smelters sourcing materials from the Covered Countries, however, we have determined to the best of our ability that those identified smelters are certified as conflict free, or are in the process of becoming certified.
Many of our suppliers have not yet completed their own country of origin inquiries. We are continuing to follow up with all suppliers, leveraging industry tools such as the CFSI. By the end of the 2015 reporting period, we will require our suppliers using 3TG to provide a completed and thorough CMRT form (or comparable) and any material sourced from the Covered Countries to be certified conflict free.
5. Due Diligence Program
5.1 Conflict Minerals Policy
The Dodd-Frank Consumer Protection and Wall Street Reform Act (the Dodd-Frank Act) included provisions requiring public companies to conduct due diligence and make certain disclosures regarding use, if any, of the following “conflict minerals” originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries: tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold. The Dodd-Frank Act found that the exploitation and trade of these conflict minerals were helping to finance extreme levels of violence and contributing to an emergency humanitarian situation in that region. These conflict minerals are frequently used in the manufacture of certain electronic products. We support industry efforts to move toward a conflict mineral-free electronics supply chain. We are working closely with our contract manufacturers and key suppliers to examine the supply chain for our products and identify components, if any, which may contain conflict minerals. Our goal will be to ensure and verify that these components do not come from implicated conflict mineral zones.
5.2 Due Diligence Process
5.2.1 Design of Due Diligence Process
We contract the gathering of conflict minerals data from our supply chain to GreenSoft Technologies, Inc. Data management and due diligence at GreenSoft has been developed to conform with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas (OECD Guidance). Specific procedures, including internal procedures and GreenSoft Technologies’ process can be obtained from F5 Networks at corpresponsibility@f5.com.
5.2.2 Location of Conflict Minerals Policy
Our conflict minerals policy is available on our website at https://f5.com/about-us/our-story/corporate-social-responsibility.
5.2.3 Internal Team
We have established an internal team of representatives from the Manufacturing and Financial Reporting departments to manage the due diligence and reporting on conflict minerals.
5.2.4 Supplier Engagement
With respect to the OECD requirement to strengthen engagement from suppliers, we have engaged a third party data collection and software vendor, GreenSoft Technologies, Inc., to provide training and outreach to suppliers, as well as collect and validate supplier responses. GreenSoft provides a software product, GreenData Manager, which completes a rollup of all collected

2

Exhibit 1.01

CMRT forms. Standard procedures for corrective action or phasing out of suppliers not found to be DRC conflict free are currently in development.
5.2.5 Escalation Procedure
In the event a supplier does not respond to GreenSoft's requests on our behalf, we will follow up with the supplier to attempt to gather a CMRT form. If only a declaration is received, the content of the declaration is converted by GreenSoft to the CMRT format for upload to GreenData Manager. F5 Networks also collects full material declaration from suppliers. If material declarations demonstrate no conflict minerals are used by a given supplier and no conflict mineral document is received from that supplier, a CMRT form is generated by F5 Networks for that supplier based on the non-use information from the material declarations.
5.2.6 Maintain Records
We maintain data records in GreenSoft's GreenData Manager. The program stores current and former CMRT forms from suppliers to maintain traceability.
5.3 Steps to Strengthen Due Diligence Program and Mitigate Risk
As the amount of data grows in the supply chain, many aspects of the program were first iterations upon which we intend to improve.
Finalize procedures for escalation, data validation, and declaration. As data incoming from the supply chain has increased, relatively simple procedures from 2013 were not adequate to address all areas of concern. After completing the 2014 declaration, updated procedures will be added to the conflict minerals SOP document.
Publish updated conflict minerals policy, consistent with all parts of OECD guidance.
Implement contractual provisions with clear requirements for suppliers.
Carry out an independent third party audit. As our data becomes more complete and our structure more robust, we will have performed an independent third party audit of our due diligence processes.
5.4 Grievance
Parties that have concerns or wish to dispute the findings of this supply chain due diligence may contact F5 Networks. Parties have the option to do so anonymously.

6. Identify and Assess Risks in the Supply Chain
Because we use a variety of suppliers, with many parts purchased through distributors or our contract manufacturer, Flextronics, it is difficult to identify actors downstream from our direct suppliers. As such, we rely on data provided by our suppliers and the assessment of that data to identify risks.
6.1 Due Diligence Process
We conducted a survey of F5 Networks’ active suppliers described above using the template developed by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI). The form, known as the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company’s supply chain. It includes questions regarding a company’s conflict-free policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, and a listing of the smelters the company and its suppliers use. In addition, the template contains questions about the origin of conflict minerals included in their products, as well as supplier due diligence. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the tool is available on CFSI’s website. The CMRT form is being widely adopted by companies in their due diligence processes related to conflict minerals.
6.2 Survey Responses
F5 Networks elected to survey our entire approved materials list for conflict minerals. Because purchasing of some parts is managed by Flextronics, we do not always know the exact content of our built products. However because we maintain design control, we can exercise due diligence on all possible parts and therefor covering all potential sources of 3TG in our products.

Exhibit 1.01

In some cases, rather than provide data, suppliers responded that no purchases had been made by F5 Networks or Flextronics during the reporting period. In this case when verified by Flextronics, the supplier was excluded from the conflict minerals report as no purchase was made.
The survey was conducted by GreenSoft from July 2014 through April 2015. Closing of some gaps in survey results and follow up were completed by F5 Networks. All survey responses were loaded into GreenSoft's GreenData Manager. A completed rollup is included in this report.
6.3 Efforts to Determine Country of Origin
F5 Networks adopted the methodology outlined by the CFSI, which meets OECD guidelines. We have determined that the smelters and refiners we gathered from our supply chain shall represent the most reasonable known mine of origin information available. In some cases, those smelters and refiners list specific mines from which their material is sourced. Through this effort, we made reasonable determination of the locations of origin of the 3TG in our supply chain.
