1. UL RoHS 2007 Vincent Sylvester NA, Regional Business Manager RoHS Solutions (603) 370-7162 Vincent.Sylvester@us.ul.com Partners Working For A Green Planet!

2. Restricted Substances Regulations Stretch Across the Globe

3. RoHS Directive Restricted Substances and Limits

4. Insulated wires comprised of metal wire inside plastic insulating material Mechanically Disjointed Material • Mechanically Disjointed • Refers to materials that, in principle, can be separated by mechanical actions such as unscrewing, cutting, crushing, grinding and abrasive processes • Semiconductor package containing six different homogeneous materials

5. “Green” Products –Restriction of 29 Total Substances Found in Annex A and B of Joint Industry Guide “JIG” (also called IPC 1065) developed by the EIA, JGPSSI and EICTA

6. Three Steps to RoHS Compliance • Understand It • Implement It • Prove It

7. RoHS Enforcement

8. Keys of “RoHS Enforcement Guidance Document” • Testing • Enforcement Process • Compliance Assurance System (CAS)

9. XRF Testing • EU will carry out X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis of products to detect infringements • XRF is a Screening Tool Capable of Detecting: • Pb, Cd, Hg • Cr (VI), Hexavalent Chrome • (for Cr total presence) • PBB’s and PBDE’s (Br compounds) • (for Br total presence only) • Note: Products must be submitted to China laboratories for testing

10. Enforcement Process • Market surveillance activities • Market intelligence • Random selection • Products known to contain materials of high concern • High volume products • Short life products • Consumer products unlikely to be recycled • Notification of concern from external parties • Notification of concern from other Member States

11. Requirements for a Compliance Assurance System (CAS) • Testing • Component Documentation • Procedure Documentation

12. Testing Requirements • Demonstrate that your finished products pass XRF screening • Demonstrate that your suppliers’ components pass XRF screening

13. Component Documentation Requirements • Provide all converted Bill of Materials for RoHS compliance • Provide Build to Print documentation for RoHS compliance for the following high risk parts and assemblies • Printed circuit boards • Cable assemblies • Metals • Metal Finishes • Plastics • Hardware

14. Levels of Preferred Component Documentation • Provide material declarations at homogeneous levels for all components • Where material declarations are not available, provide test verification that no restricted substances are present at the homogeneous level • Where material declarations or test results are not available, provide certificates of conformance or producers’ warranties for evidence of compliance Preferred Least Preferred

15. Procedure Documentation Requirements • Demonstrate that Management has provided RoHS compliance objectives, and resources to ensure progress toward RoHS compliant products and production • Provide evidence that RoHS compliance assurance is included in Management Review. • Provide training records for all employees for RoHS compliance

16. Procedure Documentation • Demonstrate the design process contains RoHS compliance • Demonstrate your internal data and records system reflects RoHS compliance data

17. Procedure Documentation • Supply Chain Management • Provide evidence that you have communicated RoHS requirements to your Suppliers • Demonstrate new part numbering system to distinguish between RoHS compliant and non-compliant • Demonstrate verification of incoming material procedures have been revised to address RoHS compliance

18. Procedure Documentation • Demonstrate material and equipment segregation to prevent contamination by a restricted substance • Demonstrate revised internal procedures and work instructions for RoHS compliance for the following areas: • Stockroom Segregation • Material Handling • Production Processes • Non-conforming Product • Corrective Action and Continual Improvement

19. Procedure Documentation • Provide internal audit data for RoHS compliance. • Provide supplier audits and assessments for RoHS compliance • Demonstrate that a supplier corrective action process is in place to address RoHS non-conformances. • Demonstrate traceability and containment procedures in the event of contamination.

20. RoHS Compliance Assurance System (CAS) Solution Step 1: Gap Analysis / Planning (2-day onsite program)   • Lead Assessor Training  • Gap Analysis • Management Overview Step 2: Implementation / Final Assessment (9-weeks)   • Works with specific groups within the organization to address the specific RoHS requirements that impact them. • Modules include:

21. Restricted Substance Bill of Material (BOM) Conversion • For each submitted BoM and build-to-print drawing, UL will analyze and provide information on the following: • RoHS and Green compliance information for each component or material • Compliant replacements, if necessary and/or available • MSL rating • Peak reflow temperatures • Lead finish • Part identification markings • All supporting vendor documentation • XRF testing for components and materials where there is no data to confirm compliance
