1.

Developed and adopted a global policy identifying the requirements of the Rule and related requirements of suppliers. The Company’s Conflict Minerals Policy, which can be found on the Company’s website, emphasizes the Company’s commitment to conduct reasonable due diligence on its supply chain to assure that conflict minerals in its products are not being sourced from mines in the DRC or an adjoining country controlled by non-government military groups or unlawful military functions, and that the Company will not knowingly use minerals that are benefiting armed conflict.

2.

Established a Conflict Minerals Steering Committee that is briefed periodically on our data collection efforts, industry trends and changes in compliance regulations. Our executive sponsor is SVP of Global Operations and our team’s responsibility is to provide internal leadership and guidance to the entire company to be mindful of the problems with conflict minerals, making responsible supply chain decisions and ensuring the best results when conducting RCOI/due diligence.

3.	Established internal roles and responsibilities within the Company that encompass cross functional support of management within its Supply Chain, Internal Audit, Finance, and Legal Departments.

4.	Continued to provide training on Rule 13p-1 to key personnel responsible for administering compliance efforts. This includes familiarizing key personnel with the requirements of the Rule and the Company’s policy of using due diligence to determine the source of any conflict minerals in its products and not knowingly utilizing any conflict minerals that are benefiting armed conflict.

5.	Included the Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank requirement contractually in our Master Supplier Agreements and purchase orders, that suppliers and vendors not knowingly utilize or purchase any conflict minerals benefiting armed conflict.

6.	Provided training to all our contract manufacturers, which is designed to summarize Rule 13p-1 and its requirements and to identify the Company’s expectations of suppliers to provide information necessary for compliance with the Rule.

7.	Requested that all of the Company’s contract manufacturers, and key suppliers of major components to those contract manufacturers, complete the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template ("CMRT") created by Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (“EICC”), Global e-Sustainability Initiative ("GeSI"), and Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) on sourcing information.

8.	Invested in online tools where our engineers can check the conflict status of semiconductor components while making design selections. Our engineers have been provided with online tools to access conflict minerals status of components to make good design decisions.

9.	Posted this Conflict Minerals Report on its Internet website.

◦	Analyzed the list of products that were manufactured and sold in 2017 to identify the conflict minerals contained therein.

◦	Compiled a complete Approved Manufacturer’s List (AML) for the robots. This included a list of every supplier that was approved by the Company for major components required to build robots. This listing included a description of the part being provided and the related supplier part number.

◦	Worked with our contract manufacturers to provide and create a listing of non-AML suppliers of commodities such as resins, plastics, solder, and metal parts.

◦	Engaged a Third Party partner to work with each of the identified AML and non-AML suppliers to conduct the RCOI survey. The RCOI survey documentation aligned to the CMRT. Suppliers were asked to identify the smelters and refiners that contributed to the materials and components they supplied in order to manufacture robots for the Company.

◦	Compared identified smelters and refiners against the listing of smelting facilities which have received a “Conformant” designation by the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) or are actively participating in audit activities to become Conformant.

◦	179 unique suppliers were contacted as part of a RCOI effort. CMRT’s were successfully collected from 89% of the supply base. CMRT responses collected account for 97% of the materials spend across these robots.

◦	300 unique smelters of Conflict Minerals. Of these, 247 are RMAP Conformant, 8 are actively participating with RMAP to become Conformant and 45 are Non-Conformant.

◦	Of the above smelters, 22 have DRC or DRC-region sourcing (16 tantalum, 2 Tin and 4 Tungsten). 72 smelters have unknown country of origin sourcing (all are gold and confidential audits).

◦	82% of smelters in the iRobot supply chain are verifiably conflict free; Non-conformant smelters have decreased from 78 (23% in calendar year 2016) to 45 (15% in calendar year 2017). iRobot has significantly reduced the high-risk smelters from 41 (in calendar year 2016) down to 16 (in calendar year 2017).

◦	Continuing to work with our Third Party partner for RCOI data gathering. Increase scope to include all new Home robots launching in 2018.

---

◦	Continue to push suppliers to provide more product level CMRT responses than company level, and for those suppliers providing company level data understand the list of non-compliant smelters and applicability to our products.

◦	Overall improve the percentage of compliant and active suppliers.

◦	Continue to review all supplier responses and work with the suppliers to help improve the quality and completeness of their RCOI data.

◦	Ensure responsible sourcing is a part of the standard sourcing decision making process at all levels of our supply chain.
