Exhibit 1.01

Conflict Minerals Report of Cavium, Inc.

for the year ended December 31, 2016

This report is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Rule”). The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to “conflict minerals.” As of the date this report is filed with the SEC “conflict minerals” for purposes of the Rule and this report are defined as columbite-tantalite, cassiterite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten. The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants when conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of their products, including disclosure of whether any of the conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively the “Covered Countries”).

This report has been prepared by management of Cavium, Inc. (herein referred to as “Cavium,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The information includes the activities of all majority-owned subsidiaries, including QLogic Corporation, which we acquired in August 2016.

Company Overview

We are a provider of highly integrated semiconductor processors that enable intelligent processing for wired and wireless infrastructure and cloud for networking, communications, storage, and security applications. Our products consist of multi-core processors for embedded and data center applications, network connectivity for server and switches, storage connectivity, and security processors for offload and appliance. A range of our products also include a rich suite of embedded security protocols that enable unified threat management, or UTM, secure connectivity, network perimeter protection, and deep packet inspection. We sell our products to networking original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, that sell into the enterprise, datacenter, service provider, and broadband and consumer markets. We also sell our products through channels, original design manufacturers, or ODMs, as well as direct sales to mega data centers. In the enterprise market, our products are used in routers, switches, storage appliances, server connectivity for networking and storage, wireless local area networks, or WLAN, and UTM. In the datacenter market, our products are used in servers for data and storage connectivity as well as security offload and server load balancers. In the service provider market in wired infrastructure our products are used in edge routers, cable modem termination system head-ends, and media gateways, and in wireless infrastructure in 3G/4G/5G base stations, radio network controllers, micro/macro cell, evolved packet core nodes, and CloudRAN. In the broadband and consumer market our products are used in home gateways, wireless high-definition multimedia interface, WLAN, small office/home office, and UTM. Several of our products are systems on a chip, which incorporate single or multiple processor cores, a highly integrated architecture and customizable software that is based on a broad range of standard operating systems.


Supply Chain Overview

We focus our resources on the design, sales and marketing of our products, and outsource the manufacturing of our products. Since we outsource manufacturing of our products, we do not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals nor do we engage in the actual mining of conflict minerals, therefore we are many steps removed in the supply chain from the mining of conflict minerals.

The origin of conflict minerals cannot be determined with any certainty once the ores are smelted, refined and converted to ingots, bullion or other conflict minerals containing derivatives. The smelters and refiners are consolidating points for ore and are in the best position in the supply chain to know the origin of the ores. In order to manage the task of determining the source of necessary conflict minerals in our products, we rely upon our suppliers to provide information on the origin of the conflict minerals contained in components and materials supplied to us, including identification of smelters and refiners of conflict minerals that are supplied to them. Our suppliers are expected to provide the conflict mineral sourcing information to us per our Environmental and Conflict Mineral Program.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

Pursuant to the Rule, we conducted a good faith country of origin inquiry, or RCOI, that was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of our products originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources.

We conducted a survey of our suppliers that may contribute necessary conflict minerals to our products using the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”) Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) to obtain country of origin information for any conflict minerals that may be in our products. The CMRT is a standardized reporting template that was developed to facilitate the transfer of information through the supply chain regarding smelters that provide material to a company’s supply chain and mineral country of origin.

We received responses from suppliers accounting for 93.88% of the aggregate components used in our in-scope products. In their responses our suppliers identified various smelters that may have processed conflict minerals for our products. We compared our suppliers’ responses with data provided by CFSI’s Conflict-Free Smelter Program (the “CFSP”).

Based on our direct suppliers’ responses to our RCOI we had reason to believe that some of the necessary conflict minerals used in our products may have originated in the Covered Countries and may not have come from recycled or scrap sources.

Design of Due Diligence

Our conflict minerals due diligence program is designed to conform in all material respects with the framework provided by The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the related supplements for gold and for tantalum, tin, and tungsten (collectively, the “OECD Guidance”).


Due Diligence Performed

Summarized below are the due diligence measures we performed for the reporting period on the source and chain of custody of necessary conflict minerals which we had reason to believe may have originated from Covered Countries and may not have come from recycled or scrap sources as they relate to the five-step framework set forth in the OECD Guidance:

OECD Guidance Step 1: Establish strong company management systems

 

    We adopted and publicly communicated our Policy on Corporate Social and Environmental Responsibility and Conflict Mineral Policy, which can be found on our website.

 

    We assembled an internal conflict minerals team, with representation from our operations, legal, and quality supply chain management departments which report to executive management.

 

    We used a system of control and transparency over our conflict minerals supply chain management process. We engaged a third-party conflict mineral due diligence service provider which utilized an in-house software program tool that compiles supplier CMRT data collected and validated for Cavium. We also worked directly with some suppliers to compile CMRT data, which was then aggregated with the results from our service provider.

 

    We adopted our Environmental and Conflict Mineral Program which requires our suppliers to submit information to us, including regarding conflict minerals, and we communicated our conflict minerals supplier requirements to our direct suppliers. We require our direct suppliers comply with our conflict mineral requirements.

 

    As outlined in our Code of Conduct, we maintained a telephone number to allow internal reporting about any matter of concern, including those related to conflict minerals.

OECD Guidance Step 2: Identify and assess risk in the supply chain

 

    We identified relevant direct suppliers that supplied products to us that may contain conflict minerals.

 

    We conducted a supply chain survey by using the CMRT, requesting such suppliers to provide information regarding smelters and refiners in our supply chain as well as country of origin information.

 

    We reviewed supplier responses for completeness and accuracy and we provided suppliers with feedback on responses containing errors, inconsistencies or incomplete information.

 

    We compared smelters and refiners identified in the supplier responses with the CFSI list of processing facilities that received a “conflict-free” designation under the CFSP.

 

    We contacted non-responsive suppliers, requesting their responses.


OECD Guidance Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to risk

 

    We held conflict minerals team meetings to, among other things, review our conflict minerals program, any potential or actual risks identified during due diligence, and the status of supplier responses.

 

    We identified risks in our supply chain.

 

    We developed risk mitigation measures on a case-by-case basis and the conflict minerals team monitored progress at meetings; and when such risk mitigation measures did not meet conflict minerals team requirements, the team escalated items to senior members of the team for additional support.

 

    We encouraged, typically through our direct suppliers or our large OEM customers, certain smelter and refiner facilities that have not received a “conflict-free” designation from an independent third-party audit program to participate in the CFSP.

 

    We followed a risk mitigation response plan to monitor and track unresponsive suppliers and/or incomplete or inaccurate supply chain information.

 

    We requested that certain suppliers remove specific smelters or refiners from their supply chain that we deemed to be high-risk.

OECD Guidance Step 4: Independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner’s due diligence practices

 

    Because we do not source directly from processing facilities, we relied on publicly available results of third party audits of smelters and refiners, such as CFSI, to validate the sourcing practices of such facilities in our supply chain.

OECD Guidance Step 5: Report annually on supply chain due diligence

 

    We file our Form SD and Conflict Mineral Report with the SEC on an annual basis and make it available on our website.

 

    We publicly communicate our Policy on Corporate Social and Environmental Responsibility and Conflict Mineral Policy, which can be found on our website.

Results of Due Diligence

In connection with our RCOI and due diligence, our suppliers identified for us certain smelters and refiners that may have processed the necessary conflict minerals contained in our in-scope products for 2016. Due to our position in the supply chain, which we discuss above, we rely on our suppliers for accurate smelter and refiner information. Our due diligence measures cannot provide absolute certainty regarding the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals contained in our 2016 in-scope products. Not all of the included smelters and refiners may have processed the necessary conflict minerals contained in our in-scope products, since some suppliers reported at a “company level,” meaning that they reported the conflict minerals contained in all of their products, not just those in the products sold to Cavium. Some suppliers also may have reported smelters and refiners that were not in Cavium’s supply chain due to over-inclusiveness in the information received from their suppliers or for other reasons. In addition, the identified smelters and refiners likely do not include all of the smelters and refiners in Cavium’s supply chain, since some suppliers did not identify any smelters or refiners and because not all suppliers responded to Cavium’s inquiries.


Through our review of supplier CMRT responses and comparison of those responses against the April 26, 2017 version of the CFSI smelter list, we identified an aggregate of 294 smelters used in connection with the supply of components to Cavium. 290 of these smelters have been recognized under the CFSP as being legitimate smelters and 242 are on the CFSI’s list certified Conflict Free Smelters and considered to be conflict free. A list of smelters in our supply chain that the CFSI has determined to be legitimate facilities is attached hereto as Appendix A.

We requested country of origin information from each of our direct suppliers for the purposes of determining the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals in our supply chain. We also relied on country of origin information provided by the CFSI when available. While some of our suppliers reported the names or countries of sourcing mines, many were unable to obtain mine or location of origin information for their necessary conflict minerals. Therefore, we were unable to ascertain the country of origin of all of the conflict minerals in our products for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Steps We Will Take to Mitigate Risk and Improve Due Diligence

In the future we will try to develop and improve our due diligence process including furthering accountability within our supply chain.

In order to mitigate any risk that the necessary conflict minerals in Cavium products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries, we intend to:

 

    increase the frequency of our supplier survey and validate the information we receive from suppliers;

 

    engage with suppliers to improve supplier responses;

 

    enhance our smelter validation process by partnering and collaborating with other CFSI members to verify the status of smelters and refiners that are identified by our suppliers;

 

    encourage direct suppliers to use smelters that are CFSP compliant, adhere to our Environmental and Conflict Mineral Program and assist us in obtaining survey responses from unresponsive downstream suppliers; and

 

    enhance internal and supplier training.

Inherent Limitations of Due Diligence

As a result of our downstream position in the supply chain of conflict minerals, our due diligence measures can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals in our products. Our due diligence processes are based on the necessity of seeking data from our suppliers and those suppliers seeking similar information within their supply chains to identify the original sources of the conflict minerals. We also rely on information regarding smelter status collected and provided through independent third party audit programs. Such information may yield inaccurate or incomplete information and may be subject to fraud.


Another complicating factor is the unavailability of country of origin information from our suppliers on a continuous, real-time basis. The supply chain of conflict minerals is a multi-step process operating more or less on a daily basis, with ore delivered to smelters and refiners, smelters and refiners smelting or refining ores into metal containing derivatives, derivatives being shipped, sold and stored in numerous market locations around the world and distributors and purchasers holding varying amounts of the derivatives in inventory. As a result, we ask that the data from our suppliers cover the entire reporting year.

The historical statements contained in this report are based on information available to us at the time of the filing of the Form SD to which this report relates. This report also contains forward-looking statements, including our plans to mitigate risk, improve our programs and improve our processes, which are based on our current expectations and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause these forward-looking statements to be inaccurate. Risks that may cause these forward-looking statements to be inaccurate include: we may fail to carry out these plans in a timely manner or at all; these plans may not be effective; our suppliers, their respective suppliers and smelters, our industry peers or industry groups may not cooperate with us in our efforts to carry out these steps; these steps may not be effective in mitigating the risk that conflict minerals used in our products benefit armed groups; or other risks detailed from time-to-time in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including, but not limited to, our most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We do not intend to update the information contained in this report.
