We will continue to confirm that our supply chain does not fund armed groups and to practice responsible mineral procurement that is free of conflict minerals that could be used to fund such groups.

Notification must also be submitted to the authorities when a chemical substance falling under the category of “candidate for required authorization” is present in a product at more than 0.1 percent of the mass of the object.*2 chemSHERPA: A scheme, recommended by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, for communicating information about chemical substances contained in products. The mechanism is aimed at properly managing chemical substances contained in products across supply chains, from upstream to downstream, to ensure continued compliance with tighter regulations.*3 BCP: BCP stands for a Business Continuity Plan. It is a plan developed in advance to enable the minimization of damage and the continuation or early resumption of business in the event that a company encounters an emergency situation such as an accident or disaster.*4 Conflict Minerals: Metals derived from conflict minerals defined in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act include tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold (3TG). At LINTEC, cobalt and mica, which are not currently regulated by law, are also classified as conflict minerals.26Supply Chain
