Conflict Minerals Statement

In 2010, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act, which resulted in rules from the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) requiring companies to disclose their use of any conflict minerals where those minerals may be “necessary to the functionality or production of a product” manufactured by those companies. Those minerals include tantalum (Ta), tin (Sn), gold (Au), and tungsten (W). Section 1502 of the Act was included due to concerns that the exploitation and trade of conflict minerals by armed groups may be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) region and is contributing to an emergency humanitarian crisis. Section 1502 of Dodd-Frank amends the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 to add Section 13(p). In August 2012, the SEC adopted a rule mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that requires companies to publicly disclose their use of known conflict minerals.

InterFET Corporation is, by rule, required to make a reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) to determine whether the issuer (InterFET Corporation) knows or has reason to believe that the conflict minerals may have originated in the DRC or an adjoining country (the covered country). InterFET Corporation policy is to comply with all applicable regulations, and we are committed to complying with the new rule. It is, therefore, our policy NOT to source any devices which includes those specified minerals from the countries named in the SEC rules. We do not have any conflict minerals used in our products that we have discovered at this time, but we are committed to continue working with our suppliers to verify that no conflict minerals enter our supply chain.

InterFET has worked with the Responsible Minerals Initiative Resources to generate the information in the following Conflict Minerals Reporting Template(CMRT) Revision 6.6, April 17, 2026.

InterFET Commitment to Responsible Mineral Sourcing

InterFET Corporation is committed to responsible sourcing practices throughout our supply chain. As part of this commitment, InterFET participates in industry-standard due diligence activities to identify and address potential social, environmental, and human rights risks associated with minerals used in electronic products.
InterFET utilizes the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) to communicate sourcing information regarding minerals that are increasingly subject to customer, regulatory, and sustainability reporting requirements.

What is the EMRT?

The Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) is a standardized reporting tool developed by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) to facilitate supply-chain transparency and due diligence for minerals beyond the traditional conflict minerals (3TG) scope. The template supports responsible sourcing programs and aligns with OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.  EMRT 2.11 is extant.
The EMRT enables companies to communicate sourcing information and due diligence efforts related to:
  • Cobalt
  • Mica
  • Copper
  • Natural Graphite
  • Lithium
  • Nickel

InterFET Products

InterFET manufactures Junction Field Effect Transistors (JFETs) in wafer, die, plastic package, and metal case configurations. Based on current product designs and manufacturing processes, InterFET evaluates the use of extended minerals within its supply chain and obtains supplier declarations where appropriate to support customer requests and regulatory compliance activities.

Due Diligence Process

InterFET’s responsible sourcing program includes:
  • Collection of supplier declarations and material disclosures.
  • Review of supplier responses for completeness and accuracy.
  • Assessment of supply-chain information using industry-standard templates.
  • Maintenance of records supporting customer and regulatory inquiries.
  • Continuous monitoring of evolving mineral reporting requirements.
These activities support InterFET’s broader compliance efforts related to environmental, sustainability, and responsible business practices.

EMRT Availability

InterFET maintains current EMRT declarations and can provide the latest EMRT upon customer request.
