Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosures:
SGI has concluded in good faith that during 2013:
| |
| a) | SGI has manufactured or contracted to manufacture products as to which tin, tungsten, tantalum and/or gold (herein referred to as 3TGs, for “conflict minerals1”) are necessary to the functionality or production of such products. |
| |
| b) | Based on a “reasonable country of origin inquiry,” SGI has reason to believe that a portion of its necessary 3TGs may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively, sometimes referred to as the “Covered Countries”) and has reason to believe that those necessary 3TGs may not be from recycle or scrap sources, but it is currently unknown if those 3TG’s finance conflict. |
| |
| A. | Description of SGI’s Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI): |
SGI’s reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) employed a combination of measures to determine whether the necessary 3TGs in SGI products originated from the Covered Countries. SGI’s primary means of determining country of origin of necessary 3TGs was to conduct a supply chain survey with direct suppliers using the EICC-GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.
This supply chain survey and the conflict minerals program as a whole are continuing to be developed and implemented with the assistance of our service provider, Assent Compliance.
As a result of the reasonable country of origin inquiry conducted as described above, to date approximately 39% of SGI suppliers who contribute necessary 3TGs have provided a response to the supply-chain survey.
Below is a summary of the information collected from all supply-chain respondents:
|
| |
| Factor | Estimated Percentages |
| A. Supplier Responses | 39% |
| Suppliers with 3TGs Declared | 79% of respondents above |
| Suppliers with 3TGs from the DRC | 11% of respondents above |
| Suppliers with no 3TGs Declared | 10% of respondents |
| | |
| B. No Response | 50% |
| C. Suppliers deemed Out of Scope | 11% |
Currently, only about 11% of respondents have declared that their 3TGs come from the DRC but it is currently unknown whether they finance conflict.
