We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Our reporting obligations under the conflict minerals rules may change in the future and our ability to implement certain processes or obtain information from our suppliers may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in this report.

Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report of TiVo Corporation (“TiVo,” “we,” “us” and “our”) has been prepared pursuant to Rule 13p-1 (the “Rule”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Form SD promulgated pursuant thereto, for the reporting period from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 (the “Reporting Period”). A copy of this report is publicly available on our website at www.tivo.com in the “Investor Relations” section under “Governance Documents.”

The Rule requires disclosure of certain information by companies that manufacture or contract to manufacture products containing conflict minerals when those conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The term “conflict minerals” is defined to include gold, cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, wolframite and their derivatives, limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten.

As a company in the consumer electronics industry that does not manufacture its own products directly, TiVo is multiple levels removed from the actual mining of conflict minerals and purchases of conflict minerals from smelters and refiners. All of TiVo’s hardware products are contracted for manufacture through TiVo’s wholly-owned subsidiary, TiVo Solutions, Inc. (d/b/a and f/k/a TiVo Inc.). Statements in this report of actions taken or performed are reporting the actions of TiVo Solutions, Inc. TiVo does not make purchases of raw ore, unrefined or refined conflict minerals and makes no purchases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the “DRC”) or any country adjoining the DRC, including the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola (all defined in the Rule as the “Covered Countries”).

Since 2013, TiVo has had an established conflict minerals policy (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”) and a management system for conducting the inquiries, retaining the responses, and performing the supply chain due diligence required by the Rule. The management system includes a team from relevant internal functions, including management personnel in our supply base management and legal departments (the “Conflict Minerals Team”). The audit committee of our board of directors also is briefed on our efforts and the results of the work in this area.

Company Description and Products Covered by this Report
TiVo is a global leader in entertainment technology and audience insights. From the interactive program guide to the DVR, TiVo delivers innovative products and licensable technologies that revolutionize how people find content across a changing media landscape. As part of these technologies and services, TiVo is a global provider of software for digital video recorders and other set-top box products for multichannel video programming distributors and consumers.

Although we design, engineer, and distribute the digital video recorders and other set-top box hardware products, TiVo does not manufacture any of those hardware products itself. TiVo outsources the manufacturing of its hardware products to third parties that manufacture the products according to TiVo’s specifications. We determined that there were one or more conflict minerals that were necessary to the functionality or production of our digital video recorders and other set-top box products and





accessories (the “Covered Products”). This Report relates to Covered Products the manufacture of which was completed during the Reporting Period.

Reasonable Country-of-Origin Inquiry
For the Reporting Period, TiVo conducted a reasonable country-of-origin inquiry to determine whether any of the conflict minerals that were necessary to the functionality or production of the Covered Products originated in a Covered Country or were from recycled or scrap sources.

TiVo’s reasonable country-of-origin inquiry process consisted of the following:
The Conflict Minerals Team conducted a supply chain survey of our direct suppliers to obtain country-of-origin information for the conflict minerals included in the products and materials provided to us by those direct suppliers. In support of that effort, TiVo retained the services of a third-party supply chain compliance agency.
TiVo requested that its suppliers complete the electronic Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) of the the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”). This reporting template requested information regarding the country of origin of the conflict minerals included in materials and components supplied to us, as well as the smelters or refiners of those conflict minerals.
TiVo’s third-party vendor assisted us in communicating with our supplier network.
Supplier responses were evaluated for plausibility, consistency, and gaps. If concerns regarding the quality of responses from suppliers were raised, the Conflict Minerals Team engaged TiVo’s third-party compliance agency to follow up with the suppliers to resolve the flagged responses.

Based on the results of that country-of-origin inquiry, we had reason to believe that some of the conflict minerals contained in the Covered Products may have originated in one or more of the Covered Countries. Accordingly, we conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of those conflict minerals.

Due Diligence Process
TiVo has a complex supply chain. The supply chain involves many parties between the contract manufacturer of our products and the original sources of conflict minerals. TiVo does not directly purchase conflict minerals from mines, smelters, or refiners. We must therefore rely on our suppliers’ provided information regarding the origin of conflict minerals that may be included in our products. As the smelters and refiners are the best custodians of information to identify the sources of conflict minerals, we have put in place, and continue to make efforts to improve, processes to identify potential smelters and refiners of conflict minerals in our supply chain.

Due Diligence Framework
Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the “Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (Third Edition)” and the related supplements, published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD Guidance”), consistent with our position as a downstream company. In accordance with the OECD Guidance, TiVo’s due diligence measures are designed to determine, to the best of our ability, the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals necessary for the production or functionality of our products. Following the OECD Guidance, TiVo has:

Established Strong Company Management Systems
Conflict Minerals Team. We maintain a Conflict Minerals Team from relevant internal functions, including management personnel in our supply base management, manufacturing, and legal departments. The Conflict Minerals Team is supported by executive-level representatives.
Policy. We maintain and communicate to our suppliers and the public our Conflict Minerals Policy. The Conflict Minerals Policy can be found at: https://www.tivo.com/conflictminerals.
System of controls and transparency. We maintain internal standard operating procedures to guide our due diligence efforts. These procedures establish a process to be followed in order to generate and maintain the information needed to comply with the Rule.
Strengthen engagement with suppliers. We maintain contractual language in our current standard supply chain contracts under which our suppliers are required to provide information and supporting documentation regarding the use and sourcing of conflict minerals in advance of our using such manufacturer or supplier.
Establish a company grievance mechanism. We maintain a grievance mechanism for concerned parties to report information regarding TiVo’s use of conflict minerals as further described in our Conflict Minerals Policy.

Identified and Assessed Risks in the Supply Chain
Identify smelters and refiners in the supply chain. We assess our Covered Products and our suppliers in order to identify conflict minerals scope and risk. We review the Covered Products and our suppliers throughout the year. New





vendors are assessed as part of our vendor due diligence and compliance program, which is designed to facilitate transparency from our vendors and compliance with our policies, including the Conflict Minerals policy. We survey our suppliers on our master supplier list; however, due to our location within the supply chain relative to the extraction, transport, smelting and refining of ore, our ability to verify the accuracy of information reported by suppliers is limited.
Assessment of risk. Suppliers’ responses are assessed by evaluating consistency, credibility and completeness of the information provided by the suppliers and reviewing and analyzing red flags reflected in the CMRTs. We also utilize a third-party vendor to qualify supplier responses and identify potential misinformation in the provided responses. We conduct multiple rounds of follow-up inquiries, as necessary, with suppliers to address any quality control concerns, such as incomplete, inconsistent, unclear or ambiguous responses by suppliers.

Design and Implement Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks
Strategy to respond to identified risks. We have developed a strategy to manage our supply chain for suppliers that cannot or will not provide sufficient supply chain information or that are using minerals from smelters or refiners that have not received a “conflict-free” certification or designation. Our corrective actions depend on various factors, such as vendor size, risk level and vendor capabilities. Corrective actions may include actions ranging from encouraging the supplier to source responsibly to disengaging from the supplier.
Steps taken to implement strategy to mitigate risk. We are continually working to improve our due diligence process, improving our supply chain transparency and working to mitigate risks that necessary conflict minerals finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. Steps we take include:
Encouraging suppliers in our supply chain to work with smelters and refiners that have RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) Conformant designation and to encourage others to participate in a program, such as the RMAP, to become certified as “conflict free.”
Refining and updating TiVo’s “grievance” process so that concerned persons can report any sourcing of conflict minerals in our supply chain suspected of financing or benefiting armed groups in a Covered Country
Increasing quality control and data verification of supply-chain information through continued use of a third-party professional in the conflict minerals reporting sector.

Carry Out Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain
We do not have any direct relationships with smelters or refiners that process conflict minerals, and we do not perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chains. As an alternative, we consider information collected and provided by independent third-party audit programs, such as RMAP, the London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery Program and the Responsible Jewellery Council Chain-of-Custody Certification.

Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence
A copy of this report is publicly available on our website at www.tivo.com in the “Investor Relations” section.

TiVo’s Due Diligence Measures Performed on Covered Products Manufactured During 2018
TiVo identified all suppliers of materials or components for the Covered Products the manufacture of which was completed during the Reporting Period. The Conflict Minerals Team reviewed the supplier list against internal manufacturing and procurement systems to verify completeness. We performed due diligence by reviewing CMRTs submitted by our suppliers in order to identify the smelters and refiners included in our supply chain of conflict minerals.

To the extent practicable, we sought to confirm the reliability of supplier responses by analyzing the consistency, credibility and completeness of the information provided by the suppliers and reviewing and analyzing red flags reflected in the CMRTs. TiVo also utilized a third-party vendor to qualify supplier responses and identify potential misinformation in the provided responses.

We conducted multiple rounds of follow-up inquiries with suppliers to address any quality control concerns, such as incomplete, unclear or ambiguous responses by suppliers.

Our diligence inquiry regarding the supply chain also involved our review of the smelters and refiners identified to us as potentially active in our supply chain. The Conflict Minerals Team relied on the published lists of recognized programs, such as the RMAP, the London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery Program and the Responsible Jewellery Council Chain-of-Custody Certification, to identify which of the smelters and refiners had been certified as “conflict free.”

With respect to the other smelters and refiners identified by our suppliers but not certified by one of these programs, we sought to determine whether they actually were in our supply chain. The Conflict Minerals Team consulted our third-party compliance agency, which attempted to contact the smelters and refiners to gain more information about their sourcing practices, including





countries of origin and of transfer, and whether the smelters and refiners had any due diligence procedures in place or other processes to track the chain of custody on the source of their mineral ores. Internet research also was performed to glean additional information regarding the sourcing practices of these smelters and refiners.

Results of Due Diligence
Identified Smelters and Refiners. The Conflict Minerals Team received responses from 97% of our direct supplier network.

A majority of TiVo direct suppliers were able to provide smelter and refiner information for this Reporting Period. However, in most cases, TiVo’s information on its suppliers’ identified smelters and refiners continued to be provided on a company-wide, aggregate-smelter basis with information across all of their products combined, rather than specific information regarding the smelters or refiners of the conflict minerals in the specific materials or components used in our Covered Products. As a result, in those cases, we have not been able to reasonably or reliably determine whether the identified smelters and refiners have been used to process conflict minerals in the components actually furnished to TiVo for use in the Covered Products, and thus we did not include those smelters or refiners below. When the supplier provided information that reasonably appeared to be specific product-level information, as opposed to company-wide information, we have listed the smelters or refiners identified by the supplier in Table 1. Based on the product-level information provided by TiVo’s suppliers through the due diligence process, we believe that, to the extent reasonably determinable by TiVo, the facilities identified in Table 1 may have been used to process the necessary conflict minerals contained in the Covered Products included the smelters and refiners.

As indicated above, we relied heavily on our suppliers to provide the necessary sourcing information, which may be inaccurate or incomplete. As a downstream purchaser of materials and components that contain conflict minerals, our ability to verify the accuracy of information reported by our suppliers is limited. As a result, our due diligence measures cannot yet provide assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of the conflict minerals in our Covered Products.

Identified Countries of Origin. Based on the information provided by suppliers pursuant to the due diligence process, TiVo does not have sufficient information with respect to the Covered Products to reliably determine the countries of origin of all the conflict minerals in the Covered Products or to determine if any of those conflict minerals from an identified country of origin were contained in the Covered Products. However, as noted above, when the supplier provided information that reasonably appeared to specific product-level information, we have listed in Table 2 the countries of origin of the necessary conflict minerals identified by the supplier. When the supplier provided only company-level or generalized information, we determined that we did not have sufficient information to identify with any reasonable level of confidence the particular countries of origin of the necessary conflict minerals contained in the components in the Covered Products, and thus did not include the country of origin. Accordingly, based on the information that we have obtained, we believe, to the extent reasonably determinable by TiVo, that the countries of origin of the conflict minerals include the countries listed in Table 2.

Efforts to Determine Mine or Location of Origin. TiVo’s efforts to determine the mines or locations of origin with the greatest possible specificity included the use of the due diligence measures described above.

Future Risk Mitigation and Due Diligence Process Improvements
TiVo intends to continue to improve its due diligence and to further mitigate the risk that the use of conflict minerals in its products finances or benefits armed groups in the Covered Countries. These steps include:
Increasing quality control and data verification of supply-chain information through continued use of a third-party professional in the conflict minerals reporting sector;
Updating internal processes, as needed, to improve transparency and communication with suppliers and to collect better data;
Encouraging our supply chain to work with smelters and refiners that have the RMAP Conformant designation and to encourage others to participate in a program, such as the RMAP, to become certified as “conflict free”;
Refining and updating TiVo’s “grievance” process so that concerned persons can report any sourcing of conflict minerals in our supply chain suspected of financing or benefiting armed groups in a Covered Country; and
Continuing the use of contractual provisions in our agreements with contract manufacturers to require information and supporting documentation regarding the use and sourcing of conflict minerals in advance of using such manufacturer.
