TRILLIANT™ HC THERMOPLASTICS
• Chemically resistant replacement for FR PC/ABS,
FR PC/PET & FR COPE, providing UL 94 Yellow
Card V-0 flame rating at 1.5 mm, V-1 at 0.75 mm
thicknesses for a broad color spectrum
• Outperforms PC/ABS, PC/PET and COPE in
resistance to common disinfectants
• Retains tensile strength after 72-hour exposure
to common hospital disinfectants, and shows
better long-term chemical resistance as
compared to PC blends and COPE
• Exhibits good impact and temperature resistance
• Available in natural grades, standard medical
colors, or custom pre-colored products
• Medical device housings
• MRI, X-ray, CT scanner components
• Surgical instruments such as staplers, dissectors,
scissors
• Auto-injector pen
TRILLIANT™ HC
ELECTRICALLY
CONDUCTIVE
FORMULATIONS
• Consistent conductivity ensures repeatable
part performance and minimizes failures
related to inconsistent electrical conductivity
• High flow and easy processing facilitate filling
of thin wall parts and multiple cavity tools,
which enable faster cycle times and lower
per-unit part costs
• Superior durability reduces breakage and
resultant scrap related costs
• Less tendency to flash results in improved
appearance and less fluid retention in or on
the tip, thus driving greater accuracy and less
potential for cross-contamination
• High strength produces parts with greater
stiffness and warp resistance, again
minimizing scrap-related costs
• Conductive pipette tips

Purpose
The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to assist the Board in fulfilling its
oversight responsibilities to shareholders relating to (1) the integrity of the Company’s financial
statements, (2) the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements with respect to
matters that may have a material impact on the financial statements, (3) the independent auditor’s
qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of the Company’s internal audit function
and independent auditors.
Review and discuss with management,
the chief legal officer and the independent auditor the Company’s compliance with laws and
regulations with respect to matters that may have a material impact on the financial statements.
Periodically review with the chief legal officer any legal or regulatory proceedings or matters or

In addition, these laws or regulations may be modified in the
future, and we may not be able to operate in compliance with those modifications.
These factors can also magnify the impact of economic cycles
on our business.
Risks related to our pension plans may adversely impact our results of operations and cash
flow.
