CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
California Proposition 65 (the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, codified at Cal. Health & Safety Code §§ 25249.5-.13) is a California law that regulates the use of toxic and carcinogenic substances. Under the law, the State of California maintains a list of regulated substances, and if any consumer product contains a listed substance at regulated levels, the product must bear a warning to that effect. The list is updated several times per year. More information about Proposition 65, including the list of regulated substances, can be found on the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment's website at: http://oehha.ca.gov. Supplier must notify Andwin, in writing, if a listed chemical is present in the finished product purchased by Andwin and hence a warning label is required. Please review the latest version of the list and determine which of the following applies to the materials or products you supply to Andwin.

SUPPLIER CODE OF CONDUCT AND COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS
The new regulation requires that all products that have a California Prop 65 warning would need to change their warnings to comply with the new requirement. The new warning requirements must have: warnings shall consist of a symbol with a black exclamation point within a yellow equilateral triangle; where the label for the product is not printed using the color yellow, the symbol may be printed in black and white; the symbol is to be placed to the left of the word "WARNING" and in a font size no smaller than the signal word. The word "WARNING" needs to be in bold and capital letters. Warnings shall list the name of one or more chemicals on the Prop 65 list contained in the product for which the warning is being provided as well as the harm from exposure, i.e., cancer or reproductive harm.

PRODUCT SAFETY
Supplier must supply Andwin with material safety data sheets containing all necessary safety information as asked by Andwin. Supplier must also transport product(s) to Andwin or end-user in compliance with all relevant DOT/IATA regulations.

THE U.S. CONFLICT MINERALS LAW (DODD-FRANK ACT)
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently adopted final conflict mineral disclosure and reporting rules, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (12 U.S.C.: Banks and Banking; 15 U.S.C.: Commerce and Trade § 124 Stat. 1376-2223). These final rules require certain public companies to disclose their use of "Conflict Minerals" originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the "DRC") or an adjoining country. "Adjoining countries" presently include Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. As defined in the Dodd-Frank Act, Conflict Minerals include gold, tin, tantalum, tungsten and their derivatives. Conflict Minerals also include any other mineral or mineral derivative as determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the DRC or an adjoining country. The new reporting requirements are based on concerns that revenues obtained from mining and transport of Conflict Minerals finance the ongoing conflict in the DRC and adjoining countries and the resulting humanitarian crisis.
