Check the appropriate box to
indicate the rule pursuant to which this form is being filed, and provide the
period to which the information in this form applies:
[X] Rule 13p-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.13p-1) for the reporting period from
January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020.
Section 1 – Conflict Minerals
Disclosure
Item 1.01. Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
This report for the calendar year ended December 31,
2020 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the “Rule”). The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on Securities
and Exchange Commission registrants whose manufactured products contain
conflict minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of
their products. Conflict Minerals are defined as cassiterite,
columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited
to tin, tantalum, and tungsten. These requirements apply to registrants
whatever the geographic origin of the conflict minerals and whether or not they
fund armed conflict.
If a registrant conducts a Reasonable Country of
Origin Inquiry (“RCOI”) and determines 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 are
required only to submit a Form SD, which describes the RCOI.
Although a substantial percentage of the products we
sell are purchased from third-party suppliers as finished products, we
manufacture or contract with third parties to manufacture a small portion of
our product portfolio. We determined that certain of those products contain
conflict minerals that are necessary to their functionality or production.
To determine if the conflict minerals in our
manufactured and other covered products originated from sources in the Covered
Countries, we conducted a RCOI in good faith. We surveyed all known suppliers
from whom we purchase materials containing the conflict minerals. Where such
suppliers did not initially provide sufficient information, we used the
Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (a supply chain survey designed to
identify smelters and refiners that process the necessary conflict minerals
contained in our products) to obtain the relevant data. All such suppliers
provided to us one or more of the following:
•
|
the policy they have in place to not purchase any products
containing conflict minerals originating from the Covered Countries;
|
•
|
confirmation that their suppliers have affirmed to them that
they have not provided any materials containing conflict minerals originating
from the Covered Countries; and/or
|
•
|
the name of the smelter from whom the product originated and
we identified said smelter as certified Conflict-Free using the Conflict
Free-Sourcing Initiative’s web-site listing of conflict-free smelters.
|
As a result of our RCOI, we have no reason to believe
that our necessary conflict minerals may have originated in the Covered
Countries.
