Conflict Minerals Report

For The Year Ended December 31, 2016

This Conflict Minerals Report for the year ended December 31, 2016 (this “CMR”) is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Rule”), which requires certain reporting and disclosure related to conflict minerals. Conflict minerals are currently defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, wolframite, gold, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (“3TG”)¹for the purpose of this assessment. These requirements apply to registrants whatever the geographic origin of their conflict minerals and whether or not their conflict minerals fund armed conflict. Please refer to the Rule, Form SD, and SEC Release No. 34-67716 for definitions to the terms used in this CMR, unless otherwise defined herein.

Statements in this CMR are based on our due diligence activities performed in good faith through April 30, 2017 for the calendar year 2016 and are based on information available at the time of this filing, unless otherwise indicated. Factors that could affect the accuracy of these statements include, but are not limited to, incomplete supplier data or available smelter and refiner (collectively referred to as “smelters”) data, errors or omissions by suppliers or smelters, ongoing certifications of smelters, continued guidance or amendments to the Rule, and other issues. Additionally, this CMR may contain forward-looking statements that reflect what we strive to achieve in the future as we continue to improve our responsible sourcing program. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties.

References to our websites and information available through these websites is not incorporated into this CMR.

Throughout this CMR, we use “Alphabet,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar terms to refer to Alphabet Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Alphabet”), unless otherwise indicated, and use “Google” to refer to Google Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Alphabet.                    

1. Overview

(A) Company

Alphabet is a collection of businesses, the largest of which is Google. It also includes businesses that for financial reporting purposes we combine as Other Bets that are pretty far afield of our main Internet products, such as Access, Calico, CapitalG, GV, Nest, Verily, Waymo, and X. The objective of our Alphabet structure is about helping businesses within Alphabet prosper through strong leaders and independence.

__________________________

¹ The term “conflict mineral” is defined in Section 1502(e)(4) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as (A) columbite-tantalite, also known as coltan (the metal ore from which tantalum is extracted); cassiterite (the metal ore from which tin is extracted); gold; wolframite (the metal ore from which tungsten is extracted); or their derivatives; or (B) any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.

Our Google segment represented approximately 99% of our consolidated revenues in 2016. It generates revenues primarily by delivering online advertising that consumers find relevant and that advertisers find cost-effective. Our Other Bets businesses are also making important strides in their industries, and our goal is for them to become thriving, successful businesses in the medium to long term. This CMR covers all products as described below from Google and Other Bets.

(B) In-Scope Products

While we generate revenues primarily from advertising, we also generate revenues from the sale of hardware and other devices. The hardware and other devices that were considered in scope for this CMR pertain to consumer-facing devices such as phones, home assistants, streaming devices, tablets, healthcare technology, thermostats, smoke alarms, video camerasand other electronics.

(C) Supply Chain

Our supply chain consists of a diverse range of suppliers and several manufacturing models. The products described above were manufactured by other companies on our behalf. Whether we are working with an Original Equipment Manufacturer or working more closely with the product’s design, we are several tiers away from the smelter and country of origin of the 3TG used in our products. We do not directly purchase raw materials. In addition, many of the suppliers we work with are not directly subject to the Rule and its corresponding regulations. Due to our position in the supply chain and limited visibility and leverage over the deeper levels of the supply chain, we engage and actively cooperate with other industry members via our participation in the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (the “CFSI”) which includes using the tools and programs developed by the CFSI such as the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) and the Conflict-free Smelter Program (the “CFSP”).

(D) Conflict Minerals Policy

We believe it is essential to establish validated conflict-free sources of 3TG within the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the “DRC”) and adjoining countries (together, with the DRC, the “Covered Countries”), so that these minerals can be procured in a way that contributes to economic growth and development in the regions. To aid in this effort, we have established a conflict minerals policy and an internal team to implement the policy. Our conflict minerals policy is accessible on our website at https://abc.xyz/investor/conflictminerals/.

We expect our suppliers to source 3TG from compliant conflict-free smelters such as those audited through the CFSI or the CFSP (www.conflictfreesourcing.org), perform due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG used in our products, and provide their due diligence measures to us upon request.

2. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

To identify which of our suppliers to survey regarding the source of the 3TG used in our products, we inventoried our products to determine which completed products were either manufactured or contracted for manufacture by us between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016, and if they were intended to enter

the stream of commerce.For products in scope, we identified and compiled a list of our suppliers (our “in-scope suppliers”) from whom we requested information regarding their sourcing of 3TG.

We requested that such identified in-scope suppliers provide us with information regarding their supply chain using the CMRT from the CFSI. The CMRT included questions about location or mine of origin of the 3TG in the products, and obligated in-scope suppliers to make similar efforts to survey their supply chains using the CMRT and report the smelters and location or mine of origin of necessary 3TG. We reviewed and monitored responses from our in-scope suppliers and followed up with any questions, as appropriate, to further qualify their responses. If an in-scope supplier did not respond, we made multiple attempts to contact the in-scope supplier.

Although we received a high response rate from our in-scope suppliers, certain in-scope suppliers identified some smelters in their supply chains that were not recognized as a valid smelter by the CFSI. Our in-scope suppliers provided data to us at either the supplier level or the product level but, in many cases, in-scope supplier responses did not relate specifically or solely to the products supplied to us. Additionally, some of our in-scope suppliers indicated that they are still in the process of gathering information from their suppliers. We continue to work with our in-scope suppliers to ensure that all of their suppliers are represented.    

In-scope supplier responses indicated that some of the smelters used by certain in-scope suppliers at various levels of our supply chain obtain 3TG from the Covered Countries. In-scope supplier responses also indicated sourcing 3TG from outside of the Covered Countries, from recycled or scrap sources, and from unknown origins. Based on the results of our supply chain survey and due to the nature of our supply chain as described in Section 1(C) above, we were unable to verify with certainty the source and chain of custody of all of the 3TG used in our products. Due to the fact that 10% of the smelters, all of which are compliant, disclosed by our in-scope suppliers have been reported by the CFSI to source from the Covered Countries, we proceeded by conducting due diligence as described in Section 3 below.

3. Due Diligence

Our due diligence measures were designed in accordance with the framework set forth in 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, Second Edition, 2013 (“OECD Guidance”), and the related Supplements for 3TG.

Below is a description of our due diligence activities performed for the 2016 reporting year as they relate to the five-step framework set forth in the OECD Guidance.

OECD Step 1 - Establish strong company management systems                

• Our conflict minerals policy described in Section 1(D) is publicly available on our website.

• We have an internal team, which includes representatives from supply chain, legal, and finance organizations, that is responsible for executing our conflict minerals program.

• Our governance structure includes senior management from our in-scope supply chains, legal and finance organizations who are responsible for monitoring our due diligence activities.

• We include responsible sourcing and due diligence requirements in Google’s Supplier Code of Conduct and in our master supplier contract template.

• We communicate with our in-scope suppliers to use the CMRT to disclose sourcing information about the 3TG in their products.

• Our products utilize a system that includes online platforms for storing and managing our conflict minerals due diligence activities, communications, and results.

• We have a document retention policy for maintaining conflict minerals program documentation for a minimum of five years.

• We have a grievance mechanism for reporting violations of our policies.

OECD Step 2 - Identify and assess risk in the supply chain                

• We requested that our in-scope suppliers provide a CMRT in order to collect information about the smelters of 3TG used in our products.

• We assessed the CMRTs received from our in-scope suppliers for completeness and reasonableness based on internally defined review criteria.

• We validated whether each smelter disclosed by our in-scope suppliers was a compliant, active or standard smelter by checking against the smelter data provided by the CFSI.

• We integrated conflict minerals criteria into our Sustainable Supply Chain audit program.

OECD Step 3 - Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks             

• We provide regular updates to our sustainable supply chain team on our due diligence activities and Conflict Minerals Report.

• We update our Audit Committee at least annually on our due diligence activities and Conflict Minerals Report.

• We contacted standard smelters that were not yet compliant or active to emphasize the importance of being certified by the CFSI as conflict-free.

• We continued to support sourcing from the “Covered Countries” and supported in-region projects through our contributions to the Public-Private Alliance for Responsible Minerals Trade, and Pact to address the child labor issues in the DRC, the CFSP, and the CFSP’s Initial Audit Fund.

OECD Step 4 - Carry out independent third-party audits of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain

• Google joined the CFSI in 2013 (member ID: GOOG). In 2016, the membership was transferred from Google to Alphabet, and we continue to be a member.

• We relied upon the CFSI to validate that companies meet the criteria of smelter and then certify them as conflict-free.

• We conducted sustainable supply chain audits, with independent third parties, on a portion of our suppliers, which included reviewing their conflict minerals programs.

• We began to conduct onsite standard smelter visits in coordination with other CFSI member companies to help the smelters prepare for the actual CFSP audit.

OECD Step 5 - Report on supply chain due diligence

• We publish a CMR annually, and our reports are accessible on our website at https://abc.xyz/investor/conflictminerals/.

4. Due Diligence Results

Smelter Disclosure

Based on our due diligence of the information provided by our in-scope suppliers for the 2016 reporting period, we have reason to believe that a portion of the 3TG used in our products originated from the Covered Countries. While we have not identified any instances of sourcing that directly or indirectly supported conflict in the Covered Countries, we are not declaring any of our products to be “DRC Conflict Free.” In some instances, information provided by our in-scope suppliers was unverifiable or incomplete and, as such, we were unable to verify with certainty the source and chain of custody of all of the necessary 3TG in our products. Based on our due diligence, we identified 307 total smelters, of which 80% are considered compliant on the CFSI website. This represents an improvement from 75% in 2015. Additionally, we identified 14 active smelters bringing the total number of compliant and active smelters to 260 or 85% of our total smelters.

The results of our due diligence on the 3TG used in our in-scope products are noted below:    

2016 Smelters*	Tin	Tungsten	Tantalum	Gold	Total
Number of smelters	84	45	44	134	307
Number (%) of smelters listed as “compliant” by the CFSI	68 (81%)	40 (89%)	44 (100%)	94 (70%)	246 (80%)
Number (%) of smelters listed as “active” by CFSI	8 (10%)	0 (0%)	0 (0%)	6 (4%)	14 (5%)
Number (%) of smelters listed as “compliant” or “active” by CFSI	76 (91%)	40 (89%)	44 (100%)	100 (74%)	260 (85%)

* The table represents those smelters disclosed by our suppliers that are listed on the CFSI’s Standard Smelter List as having valid smelting or refining operations, and those which are listed as compliant or active based on information available on the CFSI's website (www.conflictfreesourcing.org) as of March 31, 2017. Smelters and refiners on the Active list have committed to undergo a CFSP audit or are participating in one of the cross-recognized certification programs and have submitted a signed Agreement for the Exchange of Confidential Information and Auditee Agreement contracts. Please refer to Appendix I for a combined list of smelters as disclosed in this table.

Efforts to Determine Mine or Location of Origin

As part of our due diligence process described in Section 3 above, we worked to ensure that our efforts to identify mines and the country of origin of the 3TG in our products have been reasonable and aligned to industry practices through our support of processes and tools developed by the CFSI. Appendix II includes the country of origin data provided to the CFSI for compliant smelters only.

5. Continuous Improvement in Understanding Source of Material

We recognize that efforts to reduce violence associated with conflict minerals are ongoing and require continually adapting to changing situations. We will continue to improve our compliance processes including, but not limited to, taking the following steps:

• In the 2017 reporting year, we will continue to engage with in-scope suppliers to gain better visibility of the country of origin and chain of custody of the 3TG used in our products.

• We will continue to use and encourage our in-scope suppliers to use publicly available tools from the CFSI; we will continue to work with our in-scope suppliers and engage with our supply chain to increase the quality of the data provided to us.

• We will continue to be a member of the CFSI and contribute to the various initiatives, as described above.

• We will continue to encourage our in-scope suppliers to source from conflict-free smelters that are listed as compliant by the CFSI.

• As we enter into contracts with new suppliers and renew contracts with existing suppliers, we will continue to include requirements that our suppliers support our conflict minerals policy and due diligence efforts.

² The CFSI generally does not specify individual countries of origin of the conflict minerals processed by compliant smelters and refiners and thus we were not able to determine with certainty the specific countries of origin of the conflict minerals processed by the listed compliant smelters and refiners. In addition, for some of the listed compliant smelters and refiners, origin information is not disclosed. The list is based on the country of origin data provided to the CFSI for compliant smelters only.
