1 Featuring Devices made with CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces EPA registered touch surfaces

2 Made with CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces The Arrow Hart line of switches and wallplates featuring EPA registered Surfaces that, when cleaned regularly, deliver continuous and ongoing antibacterial* action, remaining effective in killing greater than 99.9% of bacteria* within 2 hours Why Clean Is Critical Healthcare Facilities Educational Facilities Commercial Kitchens & Hospitality Problem: Hospital Acquired Infections (HAI s) are a growing concern among hospitals everywhere 1 in 2 patients contract an HAI causing up to 1, deaths each year 1 Approximately $45 Billion is spent annually for treatment of HAI s 1 Outbreaks can and do happen outside of healthcare facilities Foodborne disease causes approximately 76 million infections contributing to 5, deaths annually 2 Educational facilities and public buildings provide ideal conditions for spreading infectious bacteria 2 Solution: Arrow Hart products made with CuVerro touch surfaces that, when cleaned regularly, continuously kill bacteria* left behind by dirty hands, killing more than 99.9% of bacteria* within 2 hours CuVerro is an EPA registered copper-based alloy that helps to inhibit buildup and growth of bacteria* within 2 hours of exposure between routine cleaning and sanitizing steps EPA testing conducted under Good Laboratory Practices has shown that copper alloys significantly and consistently reduce the amount of bacteria living on high-touch surfaces From healthcare settings to educational, hospitality and public facilities, when cleaned regularly, CuVerro continuously reduces bacteria* contamination, achieving 99.9% reduction within 2 hours of exposure *Laboratory testing shows that, when cleaned regularly, CuVerro antimicrobial copper surfaces kill greater than 99.9% of the following bacteria within 2 hours of exposure: MRSA, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and E. coli O157:H7. CuVerro antimicrobial copper surfaces are a supplement to and not a substitute for standard infection control practices and have been shown to reduce microbial contamination, but do not necessarily prevent cross contamination; users must continue to follow all current infection control practices, including those practices related to cleaning and disinfection of environmental surfaces.cuverro is a registered trademark of GBC Metals, LLC and is used with permission, CW Not approved for direct food contact or food packaging uses.

3 Colony forming units (CFUs) Cleaner Environments CuVerro surfaces continuously reduce bacterial* contamination, achieving 99.9% reduction within 2 hours of exposure What is CuVerro? CuVerro is a new type of touch surface material designed specifically for areas where cleanliness is a concern. When cleaned regularly, kills more than 99.9% of bacteria* within 2 hours and continues to kill 99% of bacteria* even after repeated contamination Registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a surface that continuously kills bacteria* within 2 hours 1% copper-based alloy Professional medical grade appearance that is tarnish resistant Poses no threat to human health Continuously kills bacteria* between touches and regular cleanings Million CFU at start: 14.8 Copper EPA Test 1: Kills Pathogens Within 2 Hours Stainless steel 18 Minutes 27 1,, 8,133, 7,5, 36 5,, 2,5, 15,, 12,5, CFU-Colony Forming Units Remaining MRSA bacteria* on touch surfaces after 6 hours MRSA Survival on CuVerro Stainless Steel and Silver-Coated Surfaces 1,, 1,, 1,, 1, 1, 1, At ~68 o F and ~29% Relative humidity Stainless Silver Coating HOURS CuVerro s performance on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) compared with the ubiquitous stainless steel and a popular silver coating. The tests were conducted at a typical room condition using Good Laboratory Practices. Greater than 99.9% of the MRSA are killed on CuVerro surfaces within two hours. But, even after 24 hours, nearly 1 million Colony Forming Units (CFU s) of MRSA are still alive on the silver-coated surfaces. 3

4 Same style, same durable quality now with CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces The Arrow Hart line of devices featuring CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces, offer specification grade decorator switches and wallplates in multiple gangs and configurations Switch with CuVerro antimicrobial touch surface Touch surfaces constructed of EPA registered CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces should be cleaned to regular protocols When cleaned regularly, delivers continuous and ongoing antibacterial* action, remaining effective in killing greater than 99.9% of bacteria* within 2 hours Wallplate with CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Surface Unlike coatings, CuVerro surfaces are wear resistant and the durable antibacterial* properties will remain effective for as long as the product remains in place and is used as directed Durable enough for hospital grade cleaners Touch surfaces constructed of EPA registered CuVerro Antimicrobial Copper Tarnish resistant with minimal color change over time *See footnote on back cover. 4
