Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conclusion Based on Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

RF Micro Devices, Inc. (“RFMD”) has evaluated its current product lines and determined that certain products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture contain tin, tungsten, tantalum, or gold, which are defined as “conflict minerals” by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that are necessary to the functionality or production of our products. Accordingly, RFMD is filing this disclosure along with a Conflict Minerals Report to disclose the measures we have taken to determine the origin of the conflict minerals used in our products.

We undertook due diligence measures, including surveying our direct suppliers via an industry-standard survey template for conflict minerals, to try to determine the sources of these minerals, which we purchase through a complex supply chain.
