8. Conflict Minerals Policy Statement

Introduction: As many supply chain participants and others have acknowledged publicly, the Dodd-Frank Act¹ created a new expectation for product manufacturers, which may be far removed from the source of the raw minerals in their products.

Zoro is not a manufacturer. It distributes hundreds of thousands of branded and “value branded” products that are manufactured by thousands of other companies located around the world.

Zoro is committed to acting in a socially and environmentally responsible manner, to supporting the objectives of the Dodd-Frank Act, to meeting its customer commitments, and to supporting its customers’ businesses.

Because of the complexity of many supply chains, especially those of distributors like Zoro, and the lack of an established system for product manufacturers to track Conflict Minerals back to their source, the joint efforts over an extended period by many governments, industry groups, and companies will be required to make it possible to effectively trace Conflict Minerals back to their source.

This document sets forth the policy of Zoro regarding Conflict Minerals.

Overview: As a responsible company, Zoro supports the goal of the Dodd-Frank Act of preventing armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries from benefitting from the sourcing of Conflict Minerals from that region.

As a distributor of hundreds of thousands of branded and “value branded” products manufactured by thousands of other companies located around the world, Zoro is invariably many levels away from the beginning of the supply chain for the products it distributes.

This Policy shows Zoro’s commitment and its expectations for the manufacturers of products Zoro distributes regarding actions to address Conflict Minerals.

Our commitment: Not continue to source any product that contains Conflict Minerals if Zoro determines the product is not DRC Conflict Free and the manufacturer fails to implement reasonable steps to transition to DRC Conflict Free sources.²

 

• ¹ On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act and related 2012 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules require certain companies to disclose whether the products they manufacture or contract to manufacture contain Conflict Minerals necessary for the production or the functionality of the products that are sourced from mines in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining countries. Conflict Minerals are tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold.
• ² Products are “DRC Conflict Free” if they contain only Conflict Minerals that did not originate in the DRC or an adjoining country, are from recycled or scrap sources, or have not benefitted the armed groups identified as perpetrators of the abuses that are the subject of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Commitment to Responsible Sourcing: Zoro distributes hundreds of thousands of branded and “value branded” products that are manufactured by thousands of other companies located around the world.

Zoro supports the humanitarian goals of the Dodd-Frank Act and encourages manufacturers of the products distributed by Zoro to adopt that same policy for their businesses.

As a distributor of products manufactured by other companies, Zoro does not directly purchase any raw Conflict Minerals from any source and is many levels removed from the mines, smelters, and refiners that produce the metals used in the products distributed by Zoro.

The supply chain for Conflict Minerals is complex and lacks an established structure for manufacturers to trace the minerals in the finished goods distributed by Zoro back to their source.

Zoro’s Expectations for Manufacturers: Zoro has the following expectations for the manufacturers of products Zoro distributes:

• Manufacturers should develop Conflict Minerals policies, due diligence frameworks, and management systems that are designed to prevent Conflict Minerals that are not DRC Conflict Free from being included in the products distributed by Zoro; and
• Manufacturers are expected to source Conflict Minerals only from sources that are DRC Conflict Free.

In doing so, manufacturers are expected to:

• implement and communicate to their personnel and suppliers policies that are consistent with this Policy, and require their direct and indirect suppliers to do the same;
• put in place procedures for the traceability of Conflict Minerals, working with their direct and indirect suppliers as applicable;
• use reasonable efforts to source Conflict Minerals from smelters and refiners validated as being DRC Conflict Free, and require their direct and indirect suppliers to do the same;
• provide information, in a timely manner, concerning whether the manufacturer has concluded or has a reasonable basis to believe that products distributed by Zoro are not DRC Conflict Free;
• maintain reviewable business records supporting the source of Conflict Minerals; and
• respond to requests for information concerning the origin of Conflict Minerals included in products distributed by Zoro, which Zoro shall be entitled to use or disclose in satisfying any legal or regulatory requirements or in any customer or marketing communications.
• Manufacturers also are encouraged to support industry efforts to enhance traceability and responsible practices in Conflict Minerals supply chains.

Consequences of Manufacturer Non-Compliance Zoro reserves the right to evaluate the extent to which a manufacturer has failed to take adequate steps to manufacture DRC Conflict Free products.

In the event Zoro determines that a manufacturer’s Conflict Minerals efforts have been deficient Zoro may discontinue distribution of the manufacturer’s products.

Reporting Mechanism and Inquiries: Reports and inquiries regarding this Policy can be made as follows:

• Email us at: askzoro@zoro.com or
• Call us at: 1-855-289-9676.

Reports concerning matters relating to this Policy can be made anonymously and will be kept confidential to the fullest extent practicable and allowed by law.

We will not take any retaliatory action against anyone making a report in good faith.

Manufacturers are encouraged to askzoro@zoro.com if they wish to seek guidance on the application of this Policy.

Conclusion Zoro fully understands the importance of this issue to its customers and is committed to supply chain initiatives and overall corporate social responsibility and sustainability efforts that work towards a DRC Conflict Free supply chain.
