SUPPLIER DIVERSITY Sanmina is committed to establishing collaborative partnerships with qualified, small and diverse suppliers and recognizes the importance of ensuring our supply base reflects the diversity of the communities where we live and do business. We believe that having a diverse supply base gives us a competitive advantage by harnessing the unique experiences, creativity and innovative solutions of small and diverse suppliers. Purchasing goods and services from minority, female and disabled veteran suppliers allows us to provide economic empowerment to a diverse supply base. CONFLICT MINERALS Sanmina complies with the due diligence and reporting requirements in Dodd-Frank and the relevant SEC rules regarding Conflict Minerals. On an annual basis, we collect data from our suppliers in line with Dodd-Frank Conflict Mineral legislation, on the use of Conflict Minerals in their supply chain. Each year Sanmina files with the SEC its Conflict Mineral Report outlining our methodology, the results of our country of origin inquiries and our due diligence efforts around Conflict Minerals. Our policy and SEC filings are publically available at Conflict Minerals. As a member of the RBA, Sanmina leverages the information and resources of the RBA and the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI) in our country of origin inquiry and due diligence regarding sourcing of conflict minerals. Sanmina seeks to source responsibly and we encourage our customers and suppliers to do the same. RBA ONLINE PLATFORM The RBA online platform helps us manage and share sustainability information, including data from audits and self-assessment questionnaires (SAQs) that assess risk at the corporate and facility level. Key functions of the RBA online platform include: the online completion of the RBA self-assessment questionnaire, including online analysis by a company’s customers; company self-registration and maintenance, including supply chain
trading relationship specifications; ability for a company to invite its suppliers to use the RBA online platform; identification of risk in the supply chain through major supplier completion of SAQs for their facilities and secure sharing of common supplier social responsibility data with customers. CODE OF CONDUCT Sanmina engages with our suppliers on a daily basis, and we take the opportunity to make social and environmental responsibility a part of our ongoing dialogue. We believe it is important to work with suppliers who share our commitment to integrity, and who support an ethical and compliant culture. Our suppliers are held to the same high standards of business conduct that we set for ourselves. We require our suppliers to adhere to the standards of behavior, social responsibility and environmental stewardship as defined by the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA). The RBA Code of Conduct was created to ensure that working conditions in the electronics industry supply chain are safe, workers are treated with respect and business operations are environmentally responsible and conducted ethically. We require all of our suppliers representing Sanmina to adhere to these specific supplier requirements. Prior to Sanmina approving a supplier for use in a customer product, our team conducts an initial assessment to ensure that the supplier abides by the RBA Code of Conduct. The RBA Code of Conduct is available through the partner portal on Supply Chain 29, our website Supplier Requirements and included in our purchase order terms. Our supplier surveys, which are used for the initial assessment of new suppliers for classification purposes, as well as a tool for corrective action follow-up, utilize the RBA Code of Conduct as a framework for questions around social and environmental responsibility.
