HOW WE VERIFY COMPLIANCE
The Company uses various approaches to verify the absence of forced labor and child labor in our supply chain, including the following:

Supply Chain Qualification and Supplier Assessments 
The Company performs assessments of potential suppliers according to a risk-based approach. This approach includes preliminary risk assessments and supplier assessment questionnaires. New supplier screenings are generally conducted internally by Company personnel. Ongoing supplier compliance is typically monitored by a combination of measures (as discussed below), including supplier self-assessments, Company-conducted audits, and third party audits. The Company uses tools such as regular questionnaires (which are administered by the Company via a web-based service) that are completed by direct tier one suppliers and selected tier two suppliers.

Supplier Audits 
The Company's audit program evaluates suppliers' compliance with the Company's Supplier Code of Conduct. Various types of announced audits are conducted under this program, including onsite audits conducted or attended by Company personnel, collaborative or self-audits, and periodic third-party on-site audits of practices and underlying management systems. If deficiencies are identified, suppliers are directed to produce corrective action plans. The corrective action plans typically outline how a supplier will resolve issues uncovered in audits. If any compliance issues are identified, the Company may terminate the supplier relationship or will require action by the supplier to rectify the problem within a designated timeframe.
Currently, site audits are scheduled at most direct supplier sites every two years. These audits are conducted by the Company or by a third party auditing company. The audits are semi-announced audits. This means that the suppliers are given a window of time when the audit will take place, but the exact date of the audit within the timeframe is unannounced.

Terms and Conditions in Purchase Orders and Agreements 
The Company has supply agreements or Purchase Order terms and conditions in place with most direct suppliers, requiring them to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including laws regarding forced labor and child labor. Agreements include provisions limiting the use of sub-contractors; where sub-contractors are used, the sub-contractor must be an “Authorized Subcontractor” and adhere to the provisions of the Purchase Order.

Corporate Purchasing Policy
The Company has a Corporate Purchasing Policy in place that applies to all US employees responsible for commitment of funds to external suppliers. The Policy also serves as a guide for all non-US Company employees. Applicable Company employees are responsible for understanding and complying with this Policy. Among other things, the Policy is designed to promote compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.

Supplier Acknowledgement and Agreement 
The Company has instituted a program which requires direct suppliers to certify compliance with the terms and conditions the Company’s Purchase Order Terms and Conditions, Supplier Code of Conduct, U.S. OFAC Memorandum and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Product Compliance
The Company strives to ensure that products comply with applicable laws and regulations through education, testing, certifications, and audits.

Conflict Free Sourcing

Employee and Supplier Training
The Company educates employees responsible for supplier programs on how to identify and report compliance issues. The Company also strives to educate suppliers on relevant regulatory requirements, programs, and Company policies.

Company Legal Compliance Committee and Internal Audit Department

The Legal Compliance Committee meets on a regular basis, and the Chief Ethics Officer provides updates of key findings to the Company Board of Directors.
