| Our intention is to reduce environmental impact at all stages of production activities, including that caused by component suppliers and assembly and processing companies, so as to create eco-friendly products. We engage in communication with our business partners, and have established these Advantest Green Procurement Guidelines. We operate according to guidelines in order to give consideration to the environmental aspects in addition to quality, cost and delivery throughout the whole process of production, including the purchasing of components and materials. |

We have created a database from the environmental information we received from our suppliers, and are utilizing it to promote "Eco-friendly Product Manufacturing," along with the implementation of product environmental assessments.

We are conducting environmental studies of the procured components, with the cooperation of our suppliers. We investigate the components to find out if they contain chemical substances that can burden the environment, and promote green procurement initiatives to reduce environmental impact. |
