XL Technologies, Inc. is committed to complying with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) final conflict minerals rules issued on August 22, 2012, under Section 1502 the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Conflict Minerals Rules”). The rules require publicly traded companies to report annually the presence of conflict minerals (tin, tungsten, tantalum and gold, or “3TG”) originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining countries.
XL Technologies will collaborate with our customers and supply chain partners in implementing conflict minerals compliance programs. It expects its suppliers to support its compliance commitment by exercising appropriate due diligence on the source and chain of custody of regulated minerals. We require all of our suppliers to provide us with completed conflict minerals declarations using the EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.
