1 The chart indicates which facilities were included in<br />

the scope of the sustainable development data.<br />

This section provides an evaluation of AMG’s social and environmental<br />

performance for 2010 compared to 2009. AMG utilizes the Global<br />

Reporting Initiative (GRI) G3 aspects, taken from its Mining and Metals<br />

Sector Supplement, which are most material to AMG’s manufacturing<br />

operations. The GRI is a network-based organization that publishes the<br />

world’s leading sustainability reporting framework.<br />

The total number of sites reporting in 2010 is 22 and includes mining,<br />

manufacturing and office locations. Some smaller sales and service<br />

office locations are included for the first time this year. The Engineering<br />

Systems Division closed its operations in Columbia, South Carolina<br />

during the year and this site has therefore not been included. The<br />

facilities included in the report are detailed in the <strong>Ta</strong>ble below. <strong>Al</strong>l<br />

sites report their performance at the end of the fourth quarter and no<br />

forecast data are used. Of most significance, AMG has further expanded<br />

its sustainability data collection process to move from the C+ to B+ GRI<br />

reporting level this year. AMG utilizes a standard environmental reporting<br />

template on which all sites report their data in order to ensure<br />

consistency in the interpretation of definitions of the key indicators. This<br />

approach is supported by training and by consistent auditing by AMG’s<br />

third party check partner, Conestoga-Rovers & Associates. AMG’s<br />

publicly traded subsidiary, Graphit Kropfmühl, also collects sustainable<br />

development data for its six business units, as does <strong>Ti</strong>mminco for its<br />

Bécancour, Canada facility but these are not currently included in this<br />

report. <strong>Ti</strong>mminco includes a Sustainable Development section within<br />

its Annual Report to shareholders. The environmental key performance<br />

data for the Advanced Materials and Engineering Systems Divisions are<br />

summarized in the table on page 56.<br />
