KNOLL, INC.
2016 CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT
For the reporting period from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016

This Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) of Knoll, Inc. (“Knoll”, the “Company”, “us”, “we” or “our”) has been prepared pursuant to Rule 13p-1 and Form SD (the “Rule”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the reporting period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016.
The Rule requires disclosure of certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which the minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals, which we collectively refer to in this Report as the “Conflict Minerals,” are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are currently limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten. The “Covered Countries” for purposes of the Rule and this Report are the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”), the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola. As described in this Report, certain of Knoll’s operations manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products for which the Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products.
Company Overview
We are a leading designer and manufacturer of furnishings, textiles and fine leathers for the workplace and home. We manage our business through four reporting segments: Office, Studio, Coverings and Corporate. The Office segment includes systems, seating, storage, tables, desks and ergonomic accessories. The Studio segment includes a collection of lounge seating, side, café and dining chairs, barstools and tables. Coverings includes a range of high-quality textiles, felt and leather products. The Corporate segment represents the accumulation of unallocated costs relating to shared services and general corporate activities.
Supply Chain
Knoll’s supply chain is complex and there are many third parties in the supply chain between the ultimate manufacture of our products and the original sources of the Conflict Minerals. Knoll does not purchase Conflict Minerals directly from the mines, smelters or refiners. Therefore, Knoll must rely on its suppliers to provide information regarding the origin of Conflict Minerals that are included in the Covered Products (as hereinafter defined). Moreover, Knoll believes that the smelters and refiners of the Conflict Minerals are best situated to identify the sources of Conflict Minerals, and therefore the Company has taken steps to identify the applicable smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals in the Knoll supply chain.
Conflict Minerals Policy
Knoll supports the Dodd-Frank Act’s goal for preventing armed groups in the Covered Countries from benefitting from the sourcing of Conflict Minerals in that region. We are committed to responsibly sourcing products, including Conflict Minerals, from suppliers that share our values with regard to human rights, ethics, and social and environmental responsibility. Our supply chain is highly complex, and our manufacturing process is significantly removed from the mining, smelting and refining of Conflict Minerals. As a result, Knoll has adopted a Conflict Minerals Sourcing Policy (the “Sourcing Policy”), which incorporates the standards set forth in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Guidance and objectives of the Rule. In short, the Sourcing Policy reiterates our commitment to responsibly sourcing products, including Conflict Minerals, from suppliers that share our values with regard to human rights, ethics, and social and environmental responsibility. To that end, Knoll



EXHIBIT 1.01


supports the goal of preventing armed groups in the Covered Countries from benefitting from the sourcing of Conflict Minerals in that region. Engagement with suppliers has also been strengthened, as Knoll added Conflict Mineral sourcing language to its Purchase Order Terms and Conditions, and began directly asking upstream suppliers about their involvement with Conflict Minerals in order to develop more clarity regarding the supply chain. Our policy is publicly available on our website at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=66169&p=irol-irhome.
Description of Knoll Products Covered by this Report
This Report relates to products: (i) for which Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of that product; (ii) that were manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the Company; and (iii) for which the manufacture was completed during calendar year 2016.
These products, which are referred to in this Report collectively as the “Covered Products,” are the following: electrical components, fasteners, glass panels, table bases, foam, and task lighting products.
Conflict Mineral Compliance Process
A.
Conflict Mineral Policy
As stated above, Knoll has adopted the Sourcing Policy which is publicly available at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=66169&p=irol-irhome.
B.
Knoll Internal Management Team
Knoll has also established a team responsible for implementing our conflict mineral compliance strategy which consists of members of our legal, operations, supply chain and environmental, health and safety groups, as well as representatives of our business segments.
C.
Control Systems
Our controls include the Knoll Employee Code of Ethics, which sets forth the behavior expectations of every Knoll employee, as well as our Conflict Mineral Sourcing Policy, which sets forth the expectations that Knoll places on our suppliers. Knoll suppliers are expected to:
Source Conflict Minerals only from parties that are DRC Conflict Free;
Develop policies, procedures, due diligence processes and management systems that: (a) are consistent with the Sourcing Policy; (b) are reasonably designed to prevent products or materials that financially benefit armed groups in the covered countries from entering our supply chain; and (c) provide reasonable transparency as to the source of any Conflict Minerals;
Provide any information necessary to facilitate our compliance efforts with respect to the Rule;
Advise us as promptly as possible of any determination that any products or materials in the supply chain are not DRC Conflict Free
Knoll also encourages our suppliers to support industry efforts to enhance the traceability and responsible sourcing of Conflict Minerals, such as the programs of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition, Global e-Sustainability Initiative, and Conflict-Free Smelter Compliant Smelter List. We evaluate our relationships with our suppliers on a regular basis. If we determine that a supplier’s efforts are deficient, we reserve the right to re-evaluate the supplier relationship and to take any appropriate action, including terminating our relationship with the supplier. Additionally, Knoll has participated in groups and forums focused on responsible sourcing of Conflict Minerals. Knoll has participated in the Business & Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association (BIFMA) effort to standardize and simplify data collection from suppliers. BIFMA’s efforts related to Conflict Minerals are aligned with the work of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICCO and Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI), which



EXHIBIT 1.01


Knoll has utilized as an integral part of its due diligence process. The EICC and GeSI due diligence approach developed a Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) to collect standardized supplier responses to due diligence inquiries.
D.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Knoll conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry for 2016 regarding the Conflict Minerals. Knoll conducted a product review to determine the products in scope and developed a supplier risk assessment process. With a goal of targeting Conflict Minerals, this risk assessment process was developed to identify commodities whose products may contain Conflict Minerals. Thereafter, Knoll surveyed suppliers whose products may contain Conflict Minerals in the top ninety percent (90%) of its spending using the CMRT Template described above. We received responses from all of our surveyed suppliers. Responses were reviewed by members of Knoll’s Internal Management Team. Approximately sixteen percent (16%) of our surveyed suppliers indicated in their responses that the products they supplied contained Conflict Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of the supplied product.
Knoll’s Due Diligence Process
We designed our due diligence measures to conform to the OECD Guidance. We requested that our suppliers in affected commodities complete a CMRT Template in order to obtain information about smelters and refiners that may be upstream in our supply chain. We identified approximately sixteen percent (16%) of our surveyed suppliers as possible sources of Conflict Minerals. While most of these suppliers did provide a list of smelters, the lists were often incomplete or prepared at the company level, as opposed to the part-number level, such that we could not establish a definitive connection to the Covered Products.
Determination
As described above, the information provided to us was insufficient to conclusively determine: the origin of Conflict Minerals in the Covered Products; whether the Conflict Minerals come from recycled or scrap sources; the facilities used to process such Conflict Minerals; or their mine or location of origin. A listing of the smelters that may have been used to process the Conflict Minerals in the Covered Products is attached as Appendix A. The country of origin of the smelters is set forth next to each smelter name.
This Conflict Minerals Report is also publicly available on the Knoll Investor Relations website at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=66169&p=irol-irhome.
