2 This declaration is an environmental product declaration (EPD) in accordance with ISO EPDs rely on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) provide information on a number of environmental impacts of products over their life cycle. Exclusions: EPDs do not indicate that any environmental or social performance benchmarks are met, and there may be impacts that they do not encompass. LCAs do not typically address the sitespecific environmental impacts of raw material extraction, nor are they meant assess human health xicity. EPDs can complement but cannot replace ols and certifications that are designed address these impacts and/or set performance thresholds e.g. Type 1 certifications, health assessments and declarations, environmental impact assessments, etc. Accuracy of Results: EPDs regularly rely on estimations of impacts, and the level of accuracy in estimation of effect differs for any particular product line and reported impact. Comparability: EPDs are not comparative assertions and are either not comparable or have limited comparability when they cover different life cycle stages, are based on different product category rules or are missing relevant environmental impacts. EPDs from different programs may not be comparable.

6 Life Cycle Assessment Declared Unit The declaration refers the declared unit of 1 unit (or piece) of Medeco XT Mortise cylinder, as specified in the Builders Hardware PCR. Name Declared unit Mass Conversion facr 1 Value Unit unit of electronic cylinder - System Boundary This is a cradle gate with options. The following life cycle phases were considered: Product Stage Construction Process Stage Use Stage End of Life Stage* Benefits and Loads Beyond the System Boundaries Raw material supply Transport Manufacturing Transport from gate the site Construction/ installation process Use Maintenance Repair Replacement Reuse- Recovery- Recycling potential A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 C1 C2 C3 C4 D X X X X X MND MND MND MND MND MND MND MND X X X X Description of the System Boundary Stages Corresponding the PCR (X = Included; MND = Module Not Declared) *This includes provision of all materials, products and energy, packaging processing and its transport, as well as waste processing up the end of waste state or disposal of final residues. Estimates and Assumptions End of Life In the end of life phase, for all the materials which can be recycled, a recycling scenario with 100% collection rate was assumed. Cut-off Criteria In the assessment, all available data from the production process are considered, i.e. all raw materials used, auxiliary materials (e.g. lubricants), thermal energy consumption and electric power consumption - including material and energy flows contributing less than 1% of mass or energy (if available). In case a specific flow contributing less than 1% in mass or energy is not available, worst case assumption proxies are selected represent the respective environmental impacts. Impacts relating the production of machines and facilities required during production are out of the scope of this assessment. Bacround data For life cycle modeling of the considered products, the GaBi 6 Software System for Life Cycle Engineering, developed by thinkstep, is used GaBi The GaBi-database contains consistent and documented datasets which are documented in the online GaBi-documentation GaBi D. To ensure comparability of results in the LCA, the basic data of GaBi database were used for energy, transportation and auxiliary materials. Refurbishment Operational energy use Operational water use Deconstruction /demolition Transport Waste processing Disposal Environment 6 of 9

7 Data Quality The data sources used are complete and representative of North America in terms of the geographic and technological coverage and are a recent vintage (i.e. less than ten years old). The data used for primary data are based on direct information sources of the manufacturer. Secondary data sets were used for raw materials extraction and processing, end of life, transportation, and energy production flows. Wherever secondary data is used, the study adopts critically reviewed data for consistency, precision, and reproducibility limit uncertainty. Period Under Review The period under review is the full calendar year of Allocation The Salem facility produces a variety of smaller components in addition the cylinder locks, so allocation was conducted based on a weighting derived from process engineers at Medeco. 90% of plant energy and overhead was estimated apply the production of cylinders while the remaining 10% was allocated keys and other smaller parts. Comparability A comparison or an evaluation of EPD data is only possible if all data sets be compared were created according EN and the building context, respectively the product-specific characteristics of performance, are taken in account. Environmental delarations from different programs may not be comparable. Full conformance with the PCR for North American Builders Hardware products allows EPD comparability only when all stages of a Builders Hardware product's life cycle have been considered. However, variations and deviations are possible.

Manufacturing impacts (A3) are primarily driven by electricity use. Brass and steel drive the raw materials production stage (A1), as these materials are the primary materials within the product. Transportation impacts (A2) have a negligble impact within the production stage.
