Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure



Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure



This disclosure for the year ended December 31, 2015 , is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Rule”).  Numerous terms in this disclosure are defined in the Rule and Form SD. The reader is referred to those sources and to the 1934 Act Release No. 34-67716 (August 22, 2012) for such definitions.



In accordance with the Rule, Arrhythmia Research Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) performed a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) to seek to determine whether the necessary conflict minerals used in the products placed into commerce by the Company were or were not “DRC Conflict Free.” As a result of the RCOI, the Company has determined in good faith that for ca lendar year 2015 , its conflict minerals status resulting from these efforts is “DRC Conflict Free.”



The Company’s RCOI efforts were based on the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global e-Sustainability (“EICC/GeSI”) initiative with the smelters and refiners of conflict minerals who provide those conflict minerals to our suppliers. The Company does not directly purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals and makes no purchases directly in the Covered Countries.



The Company’s RCOI efforts were performed in good faith and included:



·

Conducting a supply-chain survey with direct suppliers of materials containing conflict minerals using the EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template to identify the smelters and refiners; and

·

Comparing the smelters and refiners identified in the supply-chain survey against the list of smelter facilities which have been identified as “conflict free” by programs such as the EICC/GeSI Conflict Free Smelter program for the Company’s only identified conflict mineral, tin.



As a result of the RCOI efforts described above, the Company has concluded that there is no reason to believe that its necessary conflict mineral, tin, may have originated in the Covered Countries.
