Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
With respect to the reporting period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014, Qualys, Inc. (“Qualys” or the “Company”) conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry and additional due diligence designed to conform with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (the “Framework”), in order to determine whether the products that we manufacture which contain any gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives (“Conflict Minerals”) originate from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Republic of Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola (collectively, the “Covered Countries”). Based on such due diligence, we determined that our products are DRC Conflict Undeterminable with regard to calendar year 2014 because we were unable to comprehensively determine the origin of all Conflict Minerals used in our products, the facilities used to process them, their country of origin, and their mine or location of origin.
