| Conflict Minerals Policy Statement | | |
|
|
We support ending the violence and human rights violations in the mining of certain minerals from a location described as the ¡°Conflict Region¡±, which is situated in the eastern portion of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and surrounding countries.
As a result the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (¡°SEC¡±) adopted final rules to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to ¡°conflict minerals,¡± as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.
The rules require manufacturers who file certain reports with the SEC to disclose whether the products they manufacture or contract to manufacture contain ¡°conflict minerals¡± that are ¡°necessary to the functionality or production¡± of those products.
