1. Purpose These Guidelines set forth survey response methods and define survey response flow related to: surveys conducted on controlled chemical substances contained in Epson products; and surveys conducted to elimination of certain chemical substances that have been designated by the Epson Group (called Epson below). These Guidelines therefore explain the procedure respondents should follow when responding to the said two types of surveys. *As a member of the Japanese Green Procurement Survey Standardization Initiative (JGPSSI),

Seiko Epson Corporation has adopted the JGPSSI's standard survey tools for gathering information about the controlled chemical substances contained in its products. These standard survey tools have also been adopted in the form of an additional Internet-based Assist Site (called "Assist Site" below) for use with surveys on substances that Epson has decided to control chemical substances contained in its products and eliminate chemical substances from its products.

2. Scope The surveys on controlled chemical substances and eliminated chemical substances apply to all production materials that are designated by Epson. *Packaging material used in the transport and storage of materials procured from suppliers does not

fall within the scope of the survey on controlled chemical substances. 3. Classification of Chemical Substances Chemical substances are classified as follows.

Controlled chemical substances: Chemical substances that have been designated by Epson as requiring control when contained in Epson products.

Eliminated chemical substances: Chemical substances that must be eliminated on the basis of elimination standards designated by Epson.

Example substances: Substances that serve as examples of chemical substance groups (but are not the only substances in the said groups).

* "Chemical substance group" is the basic unit used to refer to chemical substances in connection with the surveys.

* See Appendix 1: List of chemical substance groups. * See Appendix 2: List of example substances. * See Appendix 4: Standards for Elimination.

4. Survey Types There are two types of survey. The Survey on Controlled Chemical Substances applies to all production materials used in Epson products. When information obtained on controlled chemical substances indicates that a given substance should be eliminated, the Survey on Eliminated Chemical Substance applies. The surveys request information at the level of chemical substance groups, but if possible, please include answers on certain example substances when responding to the Survey on Controlled Chemical Substances.

Chemical Substance Groups of Survey Scope of Survey

Scope of Survey Controlled chemical substance groups

7. Points to Bear in Mind Concerning the Surveys (1) Survey on Controlled Chemical Substances

1. Threshold values In principle, the survey applies to substances that are intentionally added to Epson products. For these substances, please respond without threshold values. Chemical substances not indicated in responses will be viewed as substances that are not intentionally added.

* There is one exception, however. Please use the following threshold values for all substances in Eliminated Chemical Substances bellow Group.

General Category No Name of Eliminated

Chemical Substances Group Threshold Value

5 Cadmium and its compounds 75ppm or higher, or intentional addition

7 Chromium VI compounds 1,000 ppm or higher, or intentional addition

Metallic compounds 9 Lead and its compounds 100 ppm or higher, or intentional addition

(for plastics, paints and inks only)

1,000 ppm or higher, or intentional addition (Products other than plastic, paints and

inks, including solder)

10 Mercury and its compounds 1,000 ppm or higher, or intentional addition

2. Amounts include - Units used for chemical substances

In principle, chemical substances need to be specified at least down to the substance group unit based on "Appendix 1: List of Chemical Substance Groups." Where possible, however, please use the more detailed units based on "Appendix 2: List of Example Substances."

- Calculation method Please respond using any of the following: actual measured values; theoretical values; calculated values; or design values. When the amount contained varies widely according to manufactured lot, please provide any of the following three values: maximum value; value of greatest frequency; or average value. When calculating the amount of a given substance contained in a given part, please include not only the amount added to the part in the manufacturing process, but also the amount that is already contained in the procured components or materials that are used in the part.

- Rounding off Please measure the contained chemical substances in (mg) and round off to the second significant digit.

Examples 2,549 mg 2,500 mg 1.1456 mg 1.1 mg 0.00214 mg 0.0021 mg 0.1 mg 0.10 mg

3. Application

Please enter the name of the application (part or location) that contains the chemical substance. Use either generic names or the specific names used by suppliers. When the same chemical substance is contained in multiple applications, enter the main application. Please refer to the following examples regarding how to approach parts that are structural units of other parts. * Application An "application" is defined as an item shown in a structural drawing of the part or listed in the bill of materials for the part or product. Production materials procured by Epson are classified and entered as shown in the examples below. - Devices, OEM products (either finished products or electrical/electronic components,

etc. that are procured on an OEM basis) Entry examples＞Chasses, upper cases, cables, board units, manuals, etc.

- Assembled electronic parts (unit electronic parts, power supply boards, interface boards, etc.) Entry examples＞Stacked ceramic capacitors, electrolytic capacitors, printed circuit

5 EPSON Group

boards, solder for assembly - Single electronic parts (single parts denoted by the symbols L, C, R, etc. in electronic

circuit diagrams) Entry examples＞Ceramic materials in stacked ceramic capacitors; internal and external electrode materials; lead wires in electrolytic capacitors; electrolytic fluid; sealing material; and electrode foil.

* Please refer to "Appendix 5: Examples of Part Disassembly" (compiled by the JGPSSI) for further information.

- Mechanical parts (Parts such as screws and chasses that have been formed through industrial processing but do not have electrical functions) Entry examples＞Plastic materials such as ABS and PS; steel sheet and rod material such as SECC and SPCC; etc.

- Raw materials (plastic, steel sheets and rods, etc.) Entry examples＞Surface, within material

- Process materials (Materials such as solder and labeling ink that are used in the manufacturing process) Entry example＞Within material

- Packaging materials (Paper, cardboard, vinyl, tape, labels, fasteners, cushioning materials, desiccants, etc. that are used for transporting and storing device products, electronic components, etc.) Entry examples＞Surface, within materials, in labeling ink

4. Purpose of use Please enter why the chemical substance is used. Entry examples＞Used as a stabilizer, plasticizer, colorant, fire retardant,

rust-prevention ingredient, solder constituent, etc.; Used as a primary component, or for improving thermal stability, electrical properties, or mechanical properties, etc.; Impurities (if the threshold values are clearly exceeded)

5. Metals and their compounds When responding about metallic compounds, please do not report the amounts of compounds contained, but rather the calculated values of the metallic elements that are contained within the compounds. The amounts of metallic elements can be calculated by multiplying the molecular weight of the compound by the appropriate conversion factor. Representative conversion factors can be found in "Appendix 2: List of Example Substances." When an alloy is involved, please input the amounts of the chemical substances contained in the alloy. For chemical substances not contained in "Appendix 2: List of Example Substances," please research the appropriate conversion factor and use it when providing a response.

- Example 1 The amount of antimony when antimony trichloride (SbCl3) is contained is found by multiplying the amount of antimony by the conversion factor 0.534. Thus, 100 mg of antimony chloride x 0.534 = 53 mg of antimony.

- Example 2. In the case of eutectic solder, please provide not the amount of solder itself, but the amount of lead contained in the solder. * Nickel compounds and chromium compounds do not include metal nickel or metal chrome. Therefore, metal nickel or chrome found in stainless steel and other alloys are exempt from the survey. * Exclude oxide layers and similar layers that normally occur on metal surfaces.

6. Chemical substances used in manufacturing processes There is no need to include solvents, cleaning agents, foaming materials and others substances that are used in the manufacturing process but do not remain on the products.

7. Precautions The following items often contain substances that are the focus of this survey, so

6 EPSON Group

please check them carefully. - Lubricants such as grease that are used with bearings, levers and in other components with moving parts. - Flame retardants in resin materials - Polyvinyl chloride, flame retardants and stabilizers in lead wire cladding. - Special metals (alloys) use for the electrical lubrication of contact points, etc. - Additives in belts, rollers, bushings, tubes and other rubber parts. - Paints and other materials used for color coding.

8. Chemical substances consisting of multiple chemical substances A chemical substance that is made up of multiple chemical substances requires that information be provided for each component substance in accordance with the component percentage. In the case of lead chromate, for example, you would enter the amount of lead in the "Lead and its compounds" column and the amount of chromium VI in the "Chromium VI compounds" column.

9. Azo compounds Certain azo dyes and pigments are subject to control. Specifically, these include azo dyes and pigments that generate cancer-causing amines (listed in "Appendix 3: Designated Amines") when placed in constant physical contact with users. However, electronic or electric components that contain these dyes or pigments but are assembled inside a case, for example, are not subject to control because they are not in constant contact with users.

(2) Survey on Eliminated Chemical Substances

1. Standards for deciding applicability Please see "Appendix 4: Standards for Elimination."

2. Application （Part element） Same as indicated in section 7-(1)-3 above.

3. Content level (ppm) Please enter the content (actual measured value: ppm) of the substance as determined by analytical equipment within uniform material (except for exempted applications). Actual measured values are acceptable from analytical results obtained by the supplier itself, the material manufacturer, or by a third party that specializes in chemical analyses. Analytical methods should be based on "Epson Group Green Purchasing Standard for Production Material." When analysis is impossible, please enter theoretical values based on technical data. * Example: The content (ppm) of lead contained in the terminal plating of solder = the

amount of lead contained (mg) divided by the amount of plating (mg). 4. Item under which compliance is met

Please take the following steps to ascertain if this survey applies. After consulting "Appendix 4: Standards for Elimination," please select the items that are either below the threshold values or that qualify for exemption.

5. Analysis data number [4. Item under which compliance is met] If you select " Does not exceed threshold", based on analytical results and technical data that the contain level is below the threshold value, number the analytical data material consecutively and submit it. * Analytical results are acceptable from the supplier itself, the material manufacturer,

or by a third party that specializes in chemical analyses.

Appendix 4: Standards for Elimination A table of substances to be eliminated from products is shown below. In the table, the definitions of terms relating to elimination level are as follows:

(1) Level 1: Immediately prohibited (2) Level 2: Prohibited as of a predetermined date (not discribed in this Guideline because there is no need to be surveyed) (3) Exempted applications: Uses that are exempted from elimination

Presently, applications exempted from the RoHS Directive are being reviewed. The dates provided in the "Effective date of the prohibition" column in the tables on pages 18-21 are the dates that Epson has independently set as the final dates for accepting goods containing substances that are being phased out. Exempted applications and effective dates of the prohibition may change, depending on the results of reviews of applications exempted from the RoHS Directive.
