ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH, AND OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR REGULATEDSUBSTANCES OR PROCESSES AND PRODUCT RECYCLING REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

1.0 GENERAL.

1.1 Purpose of the Standard

This standard provides vehicle environmental and occupational safety requirements as found inChryslers Material, Process and Performance Standards. It establishes, consistent and coordinatedproduct recyclability guidelines and targets to support:

- Employees' health- Customers' health- Suppliers' employee health- The environment

for production materials and processes.

This standard was updated in August, 1997 to include policy direction or objectives relative to ISO 1402Xand 1404X draft requirements addressing Life Cycle Assessment, as well as EU directives dated April1997 relative to vehicle recycability.

1.2 Scope of Application

This standard applies specifically Chrysler Corporation and its suppliers and sub suppliers for materialsand parts for vehicles designed or engineered for Chrysler or its subsidiaries for North Americanproduction or export.

There may, in addition, be country or region specific requirements for dismantling and/or handling of end-of-life vehicles. In these cases, specific accountability is as follows:

- Specific area or country standards will be addressed by Chrysler International Operations.

- Homologation issues relative to obtaining certificates for the sales of vehicles are addressed by theCorporation Vehicle Homologation staff. This group will provide separate standards to meet wholevehicle type and/or part approval.

- Chrysler Parts and Service Division will develop a separate system to track recyclability, recycledcontent and regulated substances required by this standard, while utilizing this standard for allreplacement parts.

1.3 Vehicle Paints

Vehicle body paints applied by the car assembly plants, as well as those utilized on supplier paintedparts shall conform to the requirements established by Paint and Energy Management and Stationary


Environmental Compliance. Other parts of the vehicle shall conform to the requirements of thisstandard.

1.4 Coverage of this Standard

This standard covers those materials and processes used in manufacturing or contained in the vehiclewhich:

- may be harmful to the occupational health or safety of Chrysler Corporation or supplier employees.- could adversely affect the health of the customer.- can have an impact on the recyclability of the vehicle.- could cause deterioration of the environment.

This standard includes the following main topics:

2.0 MATERIAL & PRODUCT STRATEGIES

2.1 Material Strategies

Where there is an approved material strategy, and that strategy has been approved by both MaterialsEngineering and Pollution Prevention and Remediation, suppliers may choose to use the definedmaterial strategy while meeting the recycling guidelines set forth in this standard and/or completing a LifeCycle Management Analysis.

2.2 Production Materials, Processes, Parts, Components, or "Articles"

2.2.1 New Items

None of the restricted substances listed in Table 5 (reference 4.1.2) shall be contained in any newmaterials, processes, parts, components or articles. Those Regulated Substances listed in Table 6(reference 4.1.2) may not be used without express authorization by Chrysler Corporation and asupporting Life Cycle Management Analysis. (When their use is authorized, all proper safeguards mustbe in place.)

Whenever a new material, process or part places a worker or the environment at risk for exposure to aregulated substance, these items, shall not be used without approval from Chrysler Corporation. Toobtain this approval, the supplier must use the Supplier Regulated Substance and RecyclabilityCertification (RSRC) Report to:

- Certify that the particular item, identified by part number and level of change, does not containsubstances listed in Tables 5 and 6, or residuals of these substances.


- Requested approval for the use of any regulated substance listed in Table 6 through ChryslersProduction Restriction Screening Approval System prior to Production Part Approval Process Warrantsubmission. Request for such approval must be directed to the lead Platform Engineering Group.(Warrant submission requirements replace ISIR/ISLR sample submission reference Production PartApproval Process Manual published by Automotive Industry Action Group AIAG.)

When substances found in Table 5 and 6 are used, a supplier must submit a Life Cycle ManagementAnalysis, conducted by one of the sources approved by Pollution Prevention and Remediation. Alsorequired is submittal of the Supplier Regulated Substances and Recyclability Certification in accordancewith the schedule indicated in Section 1.5.6 of this document. Additional supplier reporting requirementsare described in Section 2.5.

2.2.2 Carryover Materials, Processes, Parts and Components

Those items classified as carryover are grouped into three categories:

Those specifically identified for re-formulationThose that are going to be in production beyond the 1996 model yearThose that are not planned to be in production beyond the 1996 model year

If exposure to any of these items alter risk to a worker or the environment, approval from ChryslerCorporation is required for their use.

2.2.3 Carryover Items in Production beyond Model Year 1996

For items that are planned to be in production beyond 1996 model year, a list of carryover items whichcontain regulated or restricted substances, or include such substances as residuals (either on thesurface or generated during processing) will be generated by Pollution Prevention and Remediation.This list will based upon a review by Chryslers Product Development Teams, Pollution Prevention andRemediation and the Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology Departments.

For these carryover items, the supplier must submit the Supplier Regulated Substance and RecyclabilityCertification (SRSC) report to Chrysler within three (3) months of the date the item first appears on thelist. This report must:

- Indicate that the particular item, by part number, will not contain any of the substances or residualslisted in Tables 5 and 6 by the date specified on the list, or

- Ask Chrysler to approve their continued use if the supplier intends such use of such beyond the datespecified on the list. (This continued use must be re-authorized through Chryslers ProductionRestriction Screening Approval System.) The supplier must assure Chrysler that proper controls and/orsafeguards are or will be in place by the date specified on the list.

The supplier must also facilitate re-evaluation of the carryover item 18 months after it is initially listed,and reconfirm the values of the initial submission.

At all times, the supplier must also ensure that the report on file with the Pollution and RemediationGroup represents current production.

2.2.4 Carryover Items in Production

For carryover items that will be in production after January 1997, the supplier must:

- Re-evaluate the item and modify it to reduce or eliminate substances listed in Tables 5 and 6


- Certify the item does not contain substances listed in Tables 5 and 6 unless proper controls andsafeguards are in place, and the use of such substances have been re-authorized through ChryslersProduction Restriction Screening Approval System

- Submit to Chrysler a completed Supplier Regulated Substance and Recyclability Certification (RSRC)report describing:

- Regulated substances used within the end item

- Recyclability information requested

No action is required for carryover items that will not be in production beyond the 1996 model year.

NOTE: Service parts under the control or issue of MOPAR will be handled outside this system. MOPARhas established their own tracking system, and shall assume recovery, at MOPAR expense, of allvehicles and/or parts they introduce through service parts.

2.2.5 Changes

Prior Chrysler Corporation approval is required for any proposed change to a material, process or partthat affects a workers exposure to a regulated substance, or where the environment may be affected.This includes any part where a material or substance in material is altered by more that a + or 5 ppm,or any part which includes a change in the process that affects health, safety, environment or otherrelevant conditions. Such proposed changed shall be directed through the lead Vehicle EngineeringPlatform and will require:

- submission of a Supplier Regulated Material Substance and Recyclability Certification report- approval through Chryslers Pollution Prevention and Remediation Group, Manager-Life CyclePrograms- an approved change notice (CN, APCN or PCN)- testing to met the requirements of PF-8500 and/or the Production Part Approval Process manual- resubmission of sample, reference section 3.1- full disclosure of Chryslers Industrial Hygiene Department, reference section 2.5- submission of a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) to Industrial Hygiene, reference section 2.5

NOTE: When any changes to production products and/or processes are made, it is the suppliersresponsibility to ensure that the Supplier Regulated Material Substance and Recyclability Certificationreports are on file with the Manager-Life Cycle Programs, Pollution Prevention and RemediationDepartment.

FAILURE TO MEET THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS, OR AN ATTEMPT BY THE SUPPLIER TOSUBMIT RESTRICTED OR REGULATED SUBSTANCES WITHOUT BENEFIT OF REVIEW BYCHRYSLER, SHALL BE SUFFICIENT CAUSE TO WARRANT REJECTION OF SHIPMENTS AND/ORREMOVAL FROM THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION ENGINEERING APPROVED SOURCE LISTS(EASL). IN SUCH CASE, POLLUTION PREVENTION AND REMEDIATION WILL REQUIREPROCUREMENT AND SUPPLY TO REMOVE THE SUPPLIER FROM THE EASL.

2.3 Pre-Production and Prototype Materials

All Material Standards (MS) relative to substances identified in Tables 5, 6 and 7, require approval byPollution Prevention and Remediation and Material Engineering prior to release. Pre-production andpilot materials, as well as materials and parts used in development testing, require a non-production partnumber before release (reference SMI-161). Test materials must have Material Safety Data Sheets andRSRC reports.


Individual policy statements may address the use of specific substances. These are contained in thePolicy paper in the Appendix.

3.0 RECYCLING

3.1 Key Regulations or Programs

3.1.1 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA)

The CAAA identifies 189 substances of which 28 are listed in Table 5 and 84 are listed in Table 6.Foreign, state/provincial, or local regulations may classify additional substances as regulated and requirecompliance.

3.1.2 Pollution Prevention Act

The Pollution Prevention Act drives measures for industry to incorporate into their environmentalprograms. This law stresses the avoidance of substances such as those listed in Tables 5 and 6 whichcontribute to pollution directly or indirectly through their processing.

3.1.3 Auto-Project

The Auto-Project is the forum that state regulatory agencies have chosen to work with the domestic automanufacturers to voluntarily remove substances such as those listed in Tables 5 and 6.

3.1.4 Cadmium Health Guidelines

New materials should not contain releasable cadmium. Existing materials should be reviewed for propercontrols or replaced whenever feasible. Chrysler's goal is to eventually eliminate the use of cadmiumfrom its processes and parts. The use or continued use of cadmium must be specifically approved or re-approved by Chrysler Corporation for each application.

In addition, effective immediately, for approved applications, if occupational exposure to cadmium or itscompounds is 2.5 mg/m3 or greater or where significant exposure for example, ingestion can occur, theplant is required to provide monitoring programs, medical exams, engineering controls, personalprotective equipment, emergency plans, and training. Refer to Code of Federal Regulations 29 CFR1910.1027.

3.1.5 Re-processed Oils

Suppliers of products containing reprocessed oils must be certified through Chrysler's PollutionPrevention and Remediation Department.

3.1.6 Vehicle Recycling

BACKGROUND: In markets which are of interest to Chrysler, agreements and regulations for handlingend-of-vehicle-life have been developed and are being enacted internationally. The Vehicle RecyclingRequirements which follow address product-based requirements only.

REQUIREMENTS: Recyclability is application dependent and is based on to a great extent, on the easeof dismantling the vehicle and segregating materials efficiently. The analysis of product/part recyclabilityis a requirement for all new products, as indicated in the 3rd edition of the Product Assurance Process(PAP).

The supplier is required to provide recyclability information via the Supplier Regulated Substance andRecyclability Certification (RSRC) Report detailed in Section 1.5.6. This report must be submitted within


the time frame specified by the responsible platform program manager in order to meet both programand regulatory reporting objectives. If specific timing requirements are not specified, the timerequirements found in Section 1.5.5 apply. Failure to submit the report will have an impact on thesuppliers rating, and the supplier is accountable for keeping the RSRC report current at all times.

The RSRC report does not negate PAP reporting requirements, which must also be complied with.Helpful tools to assist in the compliance of this standard are found in the appendix of this standard.

Table 1, provided here, identifies the categories for recyclability and dismantling analysis.

Plastic parts marking guidelines, required as part of all Procurement Actions, are mandatory for materialidentification. They are provided in PS-4480 based on SAE JI344.

TABLE 1: RECYCLING AND DISMANTLING CATEGORIES

Category DefinitionRecyclable

1 Part is remanufactured (ie. Starter transmission)2 Part or material is recyclable if the infrastructure and technology is clearly

defined and functioning (ie. Body sheet metal).3 Part or material is technically feasible if the technology exists but the

infrastructure does not exist (ie. TPO or RIM fascias)4 Part or material can be technically recycled in the laboratory but no industrial

or commercial process exist (ie. PP and glycolysis)5 Part or material has organic material that could be recovered for energy but

cannot be recycled (ie. Burning of synthetic tires)6 Part or material containing inorganic material and no technology exists for

recycling or energy recovery.

Disassembly1 Can easily remove part or material manually in one minute or less (i.e. Clip on

pillar trim).

2 Can with little effort remove part or material manually in one to three minutes(i.e. Fan shroud)

3 Can mechanically or by shredding economically separate materials (i.e. Seatassemblies or windshield glass)

4 Mechanical or shredding technology is under development (i.e. Instrumentpanel)

5 No known process to separate part or material (i.e. Heated backlit glass orelectronic components).

3.2 Strategic Recyclability and Recycled Material Content Guidelines

This standard applies to new models and all new parts introduced with model year 1998, and addressesthe policy regarding vehicle recyclability, recycled material content and substance reporting. Excludedare parts introduced by/for parts and service operations. These are the responsibility of the ChryslerParts and Service Division; and are covered by standards and guidelines developed by them inconformance with this standard.


3.2.1 Strategic Recyclability of the Vehicle

Recyclability is defined, for this standard, as the dismantling and separation of products or parts with thegoal of return - to use as a functional part or as a raw material for manufacture or utilization in anotherproduct. The expressed objective is to divert these materials from the waste stream. The guidelines area reflection of the current direction under discussion in the European Economic Community and Japan(reference other countries requirements through Materials Engineering).

The guidelines for strategic recycability of the vehicle, documented in Table 2 are based upon theseglobal discussions.

TABLE 2: STRATEGIC RECYCLABILITY OF VEHICLE INTRODUCED IN THEFOLLOWING MODEL YEAR (1)

1998 1999 2000 2002 2005 2010

New Models 80% 82% 82% 85% 95% 95%

Carryover Models 75% 80% 82% 85% 85% 95%

(1) All values are by weight and include 5% for energy recovery. Values after2002 for new models have a 10% energy recovery value included. For both newand carryover models after 2010 a 10 % energy value applies.

NOTE: THIS TABLE SHOULD BE USED TO SET TARGETS FOR NEW VEHICLES AND WHENCURRENT VEHICLES ARE REFRESHED.

Individual Vehicle Platforms are responsible for evaluating these guidelines and determining whetherspecific vehicles are intended for markets where recycling regulator requirements orgovernment/industry voluntary agreements apply. IF THE PLATFORM DETERMINES THAT AVEHICLE IS DESTINED FOR SUCH A MARKET, STRATEGIC RECYCLABILITY OF THAT VEHICLEBECOMES A PRODUCT REQUIREMENT. In all other cases, the recyclability of the vehicles is to bereported against the 3rd edition of the PAP and section 2.1.6 of this standard.

3.2.2 Strategic Recycled Content

In an effort to simplify explanation of the Standard, the following definitions have been used for keyterms:

Recycled content: the portion of the product, part or materials weight that was DIVERTED FROMWASTE STREAMS, either as post-consumer or post-industrial material content.

Post-consumer: products or parts which have reached the consumer prior to diversion from the wastestream.

Post-industrial: products, parts or materials which have BEEN DIVERTED FROM THE PRODUCTIONSTREAM AND ARE INDUSTRIAL WASTE OR BYPRODUCTS (sometimes referred to as factoryscrap). Post-industrial scrap can be used to produce materials or parts in the same or a differentprocess than the original.

NOTE: WHEN CALCULATING POST-INDUSTRIAL RECYCLED CONTENT, US GOVERNMENTAGENCIES DO NOT ACCEPT THE INCLUSION OF FACTORY SCRAP AS POST-INDUSTRIALRECYCLED CONTENT. TO FACILITATE ACCURATE REPORTING, CHRYSLER CORPORATIONHAS ADOPTED THE SAME POLICY WITH REGARD TO FACTORY SCRAP.

Recognizing that a policy of consistent recycled content represents a competitive advantage forChrysler, targets have been established for the use of recycled material. In the interest of meeting this


goal, Table 3 (below) has been provided to assist Platforms in setting targets for enhancing competitiveposition.

TABLE 3: MINIMUM RECYCLE MATERIAL CONTENT TARGETS (weight %)

Material Class 1998 MY 1999 MY 2000 MY 2002 MY 2005 MY 2010 MY

Aluminum 5% 10% 15% 25% 25% 30%

Total Ferrous Metal 30% 30% 30% 35% 35% 40%

Total Plastic 10% 10% 20% 30% 30% 30%

Other 20% 20% 20% 25% 25% 30%

GOALS FOR RECYCLED CONTENT PRODUCTS, PARTS AND MATERIALS ARE TO BEACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT PENALTY TO CHRYSLER IN TERMS OF QUALITY, COST, WEIGHT,TIMING AND PERFORMANCE. PARTS WHICH INCLUDE RECYCLED CONTENT ARE EXPECTEDTO BE EQUAL OR EXCEED THE PERFORMANCE OF PARTS PRODUCED FROM VIRGINMATERIAL. Life Cycle Management analysis may be used to justify differences in acquisition costfactors ONLY when comparing different materials, formulations, process or recycled content.

3.2.3 Strategic Variety of Plastics

IT IS NECESSARY FOR THE SUPPLIER TO MEET ONE OF THE FOLLOWING PLASTIC DESIGNCRITERIA, OR A LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS MUST BE PERFORMED BY THESUPPLIER OF THE PART/PARTS:

- For mechanical separation, plastics must have a 0.03g/cm-3 density distribution difference.- If not mechanically separable, they must be compatible for recycling WITHOUT INCINERATION orhave a confirmed dismantling rating of 1 as defined in Table 1.

OTHERWISE, LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS MUST BE PERFORMED BY THE SUPPLIEROF THE PART/PARTS.

The format for performing this Life Cycle Management Analysis is described fully in the previous Section1.5.3, Recycled Product, Part or Material Analysis for Single Parts and Components with Multiple Parts.As in the previous section, results of analyses will be included as an appendix to this standard and, ifacceptable to the Platform, do not have to be performed again.

3.3 End of Life Vehicle Recovery

European regulations have begun to mandate some form of vehicle end-of-life recovery by the originalmanufacturers of vehicles, and it has been widely suggested that end-of-life criteria could include factorsrelated to product recyclability, recycled content, dismantling factors and manuals as well as regulatedsubstances. The Swedish Producer Responsibility Ordinance, for example, places this a variation of thisrequirement on manufacturers for vehicles produced after December 1997.

Questions regarding vehicle recycling may be addressed to the Vehicle Recycling ProgramsDepartment.

4.0 REPORTING REQUIREMENTS RESTRICTED/REGULATED SUBSTANCES & ADDITIONALREPORTING


4.1 Requirements

Approximately 1700 substances are regulated by international, federal, state/provincial or localgovernment units. These are also identified by Chrysler Corporation as having a significant impact onthe Corporation and its products. WHEREVER FEASIBLE MATERIALS AND PROCESSES SHALL BEFORMULATED TO ELIMINATE CONSTITUENTS THAT:

- are listed in Tables 5, 6 and/or 7- have been defined as hazardous by one or more government units- could possibly harm the environment or the health of customers and employees if not managedproperly- could have a potential negative occupational safety impact

This standard focuses on:

- Foremost, eliminating the use of substance listed in Table 5. Exceptions must be negotiated withplatforms and those offices identified in paragraph 1.5.

- Eliminating or drastically reducing the use of substances identified in Table 6. Where a processinvolves or generates a regulated substance, altering the process to eliminate or diminish any risk.

- Substituting non-regulated substances for those listed in Tables 5 and 6.

- Promoting and facilitating recycling programs. Assuring that materials, products and processescontaining regulated substances meet the recycling and waste disposal requirements identified withinthis document.

Suppliers, manufacturers and assembly plants should examine or re-examine each of their products andprocesses to ascertain whether substances listed in Table 5 or 6 are contained in their products, or aregenerated during processing; and to see if they affect the recyclability as identified in Chryslers VehicleRecycling Design Guidelines.

4.1.1 Restricted Substances

The restricted substances listed in Table 5 are those which, when used in substantial quantities, havethe potential to adversely impact the environment or human health. New materials, processes orcomponents using or containing these substances will be screened routinely by Chrysler Corporation,and require suppliers to reformulate or redesign any materials or parts that use them. The presence ofthese substances may require a Life Cycle Management analysis to compare possible alternatives.When the materials cannot be reformulated, their use shall be minimized to the greatest extent possible.

The risk of exposure from these restricted substances shall be determined by the Platform andrepresentatives of those organizations identified in Section 1.6, Chryslers Production RestrictedScreening System. Appropriate permits based on projected manufacturing requirements must beobtained if restricted substances are to be used, or if there is the potential for release to occur duringprocessing.

4.1.3 European Controlled Substances

Certain substances, controlled by usage, presence or application in Europe, will have the great impacton Chrysler vehicles, if imported. These substances are indicated in Table 7. Export vehicles must notuse parts or components that contain these substances at a level of 1 ppm or more. If it is necessary touse one of these substances at 1 ppm or more, a Life Cycle Management Analysis is required. EffectiveJune, 1997, exceptions can be granted only by the Manager, Life Cycle Programs in concurrence withthe Executrive for Recycling.

These substance should be expressly avoided by Platforms as they are currently being targeted by theEuropean Union for elimination, except under specific use. In some cases, actual banning of thesubstance is being considered. The impact of this is expected to affect vehicles produced in CY 2000.

4.2 Supplier Regulated Substance and Recyclability Certification Report

Chrysler Corporation has developed a Supplier Regulated Substance and Recyclability CertificationReport (RSRC) data collection and reporting system an Internet application through the Supplier PartInformation System (SPIN). RSRC was created to facilitate:

- reporting materials or substances used in products and processes- reporting recycling information- disclosing regulated substances

Suppliers are responsible for compliance with this requirement and should utilize this system to submitdata on parts supplied to Chrysler. Any questions on requirements should be referred to the PollutionPrevention and Remediation staff, Manager, Life Cycle Programs.

The report is to completed in phases:

- At 104 weeks before launch (or earlier), the supplier must provide general information on the part/partsthey will provide for the specific model. This requires completion of the section on materials andregulated substances.

- No later than 50 weeks before launch, the information on dismantling, recycling content andrecyclability is to be completed, as well as any changes to the previous entries.

- At launch, all information must be verified by the supplier.

(NOTE: Service and Parts will need to establish their own tracking system to identify differencesbetween materials and parts supplied by different suppliers and manufacturers, both for the regulated,restricted substances in this stand for post-consumer and industrial-recycled content, overall partrecyclability and dismantling.)

EACH SUPPLIER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSURING COMPLIANCE WITH THE RSRCREQUIREMENTS. COMPLIANCE IS MEASURED AND REPORTED THROUGH CHRYSLERSSUPPLIER RATING SYSTEM. If the supplier is unable to meet the recycled content targets identified inTables 2 and 3, or has not performed the Life Cycle Management Analysis required, the supplier cannotcomplete the section referring to pre- or post-consumer content. As a result, the suppliers score will beappropriately reduced.

4.3 Chrysler's Production Restriction Screening Approval System

To assist in monitoring, controlling and eliminating unhealthy or environmentally unsound materials, anInformation System (IS) screening and database has been created. This database contains informationderived from the completed Supplier Regulated Substance and Recyclability Certification (RSRC)Reports. The screening will be on-line for review by:

- Vehicle Engineering Office, Materials Engineering


- Vehicle Engineering Office, Vehicle Recycling Programs- Product Strategy and Regulatory Affairs, Pollution Prevention & Remediation- Employee Relations, Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology Department

4.4 Restricted and Regulated Substances Detection Limits for Reporting

- Restricted substances (Table 5) must be reported if they are intentionally added at 1 ppm or higher.- Other trace substance must be reported if they are present at 100 ppm or higher.

This reporting requirements is mandatory whether the release occurs at a Chrysler facility duringmanufacturing or at the end-of-life of the vehicle when the substance is disposed of or recycled. Thepart or material supplier must make this determination.

IT IS SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED THAT CFCS (IDENTIFIED IN TABLE 5) BE REPORTED IF THEYARE PRESENT INTENTIONALLY OR AS A TRACE ABOVE 1 PPM, OR IF THEY ARE USED IN ANYAMOUNT DURING THE MANUFACTURING OF THE PART OR SYSTEM FOR CHRYSLER.

For steel and metals with accepted formulations, as indicated by The American Iron & Steel Institute, theformulations can be reported as the content for restricted substances. In the case of steel melts, whenmaterial additions are added to the steel, only the part produced from the steel must be reported. As anexample of compliance with reporting requirements, non-leaded steel has up to 30 ppm lead content. Itdoes not have to be reported because it is not intentionally added above 1 ppm, and is not a trace above100 ppm.

Excluded from this restricted and regulated substance reporting requirement are articles that do notrequire any or all of the following in Chrysler facility during manufacturing or processing:

- machining- drilling- molding- adhesive joining during manufacturing or processing in a Chrysler facility

Reporting an article is required if substances are released during dismantling or recycling.

Regulated substances (Table 6) must be reported only if intentionally added at 100 ppm or higher, or canbe found as a trace at 1000 ppm or higher. Under these conditions, reporting is required whether thesubstance is released in a Chrysler facility during manufacturing or at the end of the useful life of thevehicle during the disposal or recycling.

The information provided will serve as reporting levels for Chrysler and for the supplier to comply withregulatory and legislative requirements on the local, state, national and international levels. As a result,Chrysler and the supplier shall share joint liability for the disclosure. When levels requested forregulatory purpose are below those identified by this standard, suppliers shall report such levelsimmediately at no charge to Chrysler to a level as low as 1 ppm.

4.5 Additional Reporting Requirements

Prior to shipment of any production material or use of any process, the supplier (Corporate or outsidesource) shall provide, at the request of Chryslers Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology Department:

-- a full disclosure sheet identifying the constituents in the materials or process and a Material SafetyData Sheet (MSDS)


-- sufficient information relative to the health (employee and customer), employee occupational safety,and environmental effects of any product, material or process to allow review-for-compliance withapplicable North American rules and regulations and Chrysler Corporation policies

NOTE: Unless Chryslers Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology Department requests this information,articles and ODD Box Items (PS-7000 Items) are specifically excluded from the preceding tworequirements.

APPENDIX C, CS-9003, Change E, C-1

APPENDIX C: ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY POSITIONS

LEAD: Lead should be eliminated when possible. Only recycled lead should be accepted in our parts ormaterials. When a question exists whether to use lead or an alternative material a Life Cycle ManagementAnalysis should be performed to determine the best business decision. Lead has been demonstrated topresent both adverse environmental and health affects. Using of lead requires extended responsibility andliability to the Corporation and must be controlled.

Position: When lead is required only RECYCLED (post industrial or consumer) lead should be used.Lead free plastics must be considered as well as lead free solder.

MERCURY: Mercury has been banned in Sweden and proposed bans have been introduced in threestates. Alternative substances, parts or materials should be selected based on a Life Cycle ManagementAnalysis that addresses all the potential issues. Replacement parts will only be permitted for existingvehicles in Sweden through 2002.

Position: Mercury MUST BE eliminated from new sources by Model Year 1998 and existing sourcesby Model Year 2000.

CHROME (CHROMIUM): The usage of chrome on our cars and trucks is not prohibited provided noreleases occur in our plants. When a release occurs steps must be taken to control the emissions.Recycling of Chrome materials and parts is an expensive operation and can add to the recovery cost of avehicle.

Position: Chrome parts should be provided to Chrysler as articles and be recyclable.

CADMIUM: Cadmium is a heavy metal that presents environmental and health problems if not properlymanaged. During manufacturing, disposal and/or recycling the extent of exposure of individuals or theenvironment must be monitored, controlled and /or labeled. When considering the usage of cadmium,alternative materials or substances must be addressed. Substitutes may not be as durable or reliable butcan meet regulatory requirements for the vehicle, therefore, these alternatives should be considered toavoid prohibitions or non-value added costs to Chrysler at End-of-life vehicle recovery.

Position: Cadmium fasteners shall be eliminated with the possible exception for safety applications,alternative engineering approaches should be incorporated for new product introductions. Switchesshould consider alternative contacts in areas where durability of the system does not warrant switchlife beyond the system life. NOTE EUROPE DOES NOT CONSIDER FASTENING A SEAT BELTTO THE VEHICLE AS A SAFETY APPLICATION.

PVC: PVC plastic used in the vehicle should be reduced where possible. Restrictions in Europe areexpected and recovery is costly. European import models must find alternative materials for PVC. Undercurrent European energy recovery guideline plastic can be incinerated to obtain energy. In many Europeanand some North American incinerators temperatures are not high enough to destroy the dioxin produced beincinerating PVC. Costs to convert these incinerators are prohibitive. If this material becomes a material ofchoice in automobiles it is likely that bans on the usage will follow.

Position: PVC will only be used for European exports when supported by a Life Cycle ManagementAnalysis.

APPENDIX D, CS-9003, Change E, D-1

APPENDIX D: ANALYSIS OF RECYCLED PRODUCTS, PART OR MATERIAL FORINDIVIDUAL PARTS AND COMPONENTS WITH MULTIPLE PARTS

Targets in Table 3 (see section 3.2.2) are applied in the following cases:

- When the total combined weight of parts from a single supplier providing three or more parts on a vehicleline is 1 pound or more.

- When a supplier with less than three parts on a vehicle line is providing parts weighing 1 pound or more.

TO CALCULATE COMPLIANCE WITH THE TARGETS, TABLE 2 PERCENTAGES ARE MEASUREDAGAINST THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE PART/PARTS SUPPLIED.

Example: 3 parts (relatively equal weight) = total weight over 10 pounds-- first part 100% post-consumer content-- second part 50 % post-consumer content-- third part 0% post-consumer content

Overall recycle content from the supplier on that vehicle is 50%

IF A SUPPLIER REPLACES A PART CONTAINING RECYCLED CONTENT WITH A PART THAT DOESNOT HAVE RECYCLED CONTENT, THE OVERALL LOSS OF RECYCLED CONTENT MUST BEOFFSET IN THE VEHICLE.

Example: 3 parts (relatively equal weight) produced in TPO-- one part with 100% recycled content is replaced with one of 100% virginmaterial-- the supplier must increase the recycled content in the remaining TPO parts toreach an equivalent recycled content overall

IF THE SUPPLIER OF THREE OR MORE PARTS WEIGHING MORE THAN 1 POUND FAILS TO MEETTHE RECYCLED CONTENT REQUIREMENTS IDENTIFIED IN TABLE 2, A LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENTANALYSIS MUST BE PERFORMED BY THAT SUPPLIER. To assist suppliers in accomplishing this, threeapproved sources have been identified by Chrysler to conduct Life Cycle Management analyses, and thesupplier must select from this approved group. (NOTE: section 7.0)

A Life Cycle Management Analysis evaluates the impact on long and short term decisions. It integratesquality, cost, timing, performance and weight with environment, occupational health and safety, as well asrecycling, to facilitate better decision making. The team which participates is comprised of members of thePlatform team (engineer and management), Corporate staff (industrial hygiene/environmental/vehiclerecycling/buyer-raw materials) and the supplier(s). Results are reviewed by the team and the PollutionPrevention and Remediations Manager, Life Cycle Programs.

To simplify the process, where possible, the results of previous analyses are included in the appendix of thisstandard. They do not have to be repeated if the platform engineer agrees with the results. As other LifeCycle Management Analyses are conducted, they will be added to the appendix for future reference.
