Policy on Non-use of Conflict Minerals

NTT DOCOMO Group’s policy on non-use of conflict minerals is as follows.

NTT DOCOMO Group’s Approach to Conflict Minerals

Some minerals originating in areas affected by conflict, such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries (the “ Covered Countries ”), have been suspected of serving as a source of financing for violent armed groups, fomenting conflict and committing serious human rights abuses.

In this context, Section 1502 of the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (the “ Act ”), signed into law in the United States in July 2010, requires companies listed in the United States to disclose certain information regarding conflict minerals, including the extent to which they use conflict minerals originating in the Covered Countries in their products. Under the Act, “Conflict Minerals” includes tantalum, tin, gold, tungsten and other minerals designated by the Secretary of State (“ conflict minerals ”).

To continue to be socially responsible with respect to this issue, NTT DOCOMO Group is working with its suppliers to conduct procurement in a way that improves supply chain transparency and, in consideration of the Act, is taking steps to avoid the use of conflict minerals, the proceeds from which could finance armed groups. At the same time, in view of the fact that areas affected by conflict also produce minerals that do not finance armed groups, NTT DOCOMO Group will work to implement its approach to socially responsible procurement without hindering the use of these minerals in its products.

NTT DOCOMO Group asks for the understanding of its suppliers and their cooperation with its surveys. NTT DOCOMO Group also asks that its suppliers endeavor to promote socially responsible procurement of minerals that are used in NTT DOCOMO Group’s products, together with the NTT DOCOMO Group.

Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Pursuant to its policy of non-use of conflict minerals, NTT DOCOMO Group surveyed the usage status of conflict minerals in its products and manufactured goods during 2016. As a result of this survey, NTT DOCOMO Group had manufactured and contracted to manufacture products for which “conflict minerals” were necessary to the functionality or production of such products (such minerals, “ necessary conflict minerals ”).

NTT DOCOMO Group conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry, which employed a combination of measures to determine whether the necessary conflict minerals in NTT DOCOMO Group’s products originated from the Covered Countries. NTT DOCOMO Group’s primary means of determining the country of origin of necessary conflict minerals was to conduct a supply chain survey with tier 1 suppliers using the CFSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.

NTT DOCOMO Group surveyed all products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by NTT DOCOMO Group during 2016 that were intended to be sold to its customers.

NTT DOCOMO Group adopted the above described reasonable country of origin inquiry and received responses from tier 1 suppliers. The response rate (based on the aggregate number of suppliers) for NTT DOCOMO Group’s tier 1 suppliers was 100%.

Based on its reasonable country of origin inquiry, NTT DOCOMO Group has determined that a portion of the conflict minerals (tantalum, tin, gold and tungsten) that are necessary to the functionality or production of its products may have originated in the Covered Countries and further determined that such necessary conflict minerals may not be from recycled or scrap sources.

In accordance with Rule 13p-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, NTT DOCOMO will file this Specialized Disclosure Form (Form SD) and the attached Conflict Minerals Report. Both this Form SD and the Conflict Minerals Report will be publicly available on NTT DOCOMO’s website at https://www.nttdocomo.co.jp/english/corporate/ir/library/sec/index.html
