Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

SPX Corporation (“SPX” or the “Company”) is filing this Form SD pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016 (the “Reporting Period”).

Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations, if any “conflict minerals” (as defined below) are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by the Company or contracted by the Company to be manufactured, the Company must conduct in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) regarding those “conflict minerals” that is reasonably designed to determine whether any of the “conflict minerals” originated in the Covered Countries (as defined below) or are from recycled or scrap sources. Form SD defines “conflict minerals” as (i) columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are currently limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten; or (ii) any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an “adjoining country,” as such term is defined in Form SD, (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).

The Company’s operations may at times manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products for which conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. As required by SEC’s conflict minerals rule, the Company has conducted a good faith RCOI regarding conflict minerals included in the Company’s products during the Reporting Period to determine whether any such conflict minerals originated in the Covered Countries and/or whether any of the conflict minerals were from recycled or scrap sources. Where applicable, the Company has conducted additional due diligence within the meaning of the SEC’s conflict minerals rule. The results of SPX’s RCOI, as well as the Company’s additional due diligence regarding the sources of conflict minerals, are contained in the Company’s Conflict Minerals Report, filed herewith as Exhibit 1.01, and publically available on the Company’s website at www.spx.com. The content on, or accessible through, our website or any website referred to in this Form SD is not, and shall not be deemed to be, part of this Form SD or incorporated into this or any other filings SPX makes with the SEC unless expressly noted.
