Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
Aeva evaluated its current product lines and determined that tin, tungsten, tantalum and gold (“3TG”) are necessary to the functionality or production of certain products manufactured by the Company or contracted by the Company to be manufactured and are required to be reported in the calendar year covered by this specialized disclosure report. Accordingly, the Company conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the 3TG in our products that was reasonably designed to determine whether any such 3TG originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country or were from recycled or scrap sources.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Our reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) was implemented by a cross-organizational team consisting of members from our manufacturing, procurement, information systems, legal and compliance departments. This team reported to a steering committee that was comprised of certain members of our executive management team. We utilized a third-party service called VeriSupply to support our outreach and analysis of the responses to our survey. We sent out emails to 40 of our direct suppliers of materials for our products that we determined were “in scope”, i.e. suppliers for products that contained or were likely to contain 3TG. We reviewed the responses that we received from our suppliers and followed up by email and/or telephone with those suppliers who did not respond to our requests for information. Out of the 40 suppliers that were in scope, 28 of them responded with Conflict Minerals Reporting Template. We prioritized responses from suppliers based on certain “red flags” identified by the third-party tool, namely those suppliers that indicated some DRC sources or unlisted smelters. We then researched and reviewed the information provided by these suppliers and followed up with them as necessary and mapped their supplier status based on latest Responsible Minerals Initiative data.
Due Diligence Process
In accordance with Rule 13p-1, we exercised due diligence measures on the source of 3TG in our products. In conducting our due diligence, we applied guidance from the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply
