| On January 27, 2003 the European Parliament and the Council of the
European Union authorized Directive 2002/95/EC on the restriction of the use of
certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. This new
directive, commonly referred to as RoHS requires manufacturers to reduce usage
of six hazardous substances to minimum acceptable levels by July of 2006.
The six substances affected are:
