Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
ITEM 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
The following should be read in conjunction with the definitions
contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Form SD and related rules.
With respect to conflict minerals necessary to the functionality
or production of products manufactured by AU Optronics Corp. (“we,” “us” or “our”), or contracted
by us to be manufactured, and required to be reported on Form SD for 2019 (collectively, “CMs”), we conducted in good
faith a country of origin inquiry that we believe was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the CMs originated in the
Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (“Covered Countries”). For a description of our country of
origin inquiry, please see the discussion in Exhibit 1.02 of the measures we took to exercise due diligence (of which such inquiry
was a part), which discussion is incorporated herein by reference.
To the extent we know or have reason to believe that the CMs
originated, or may have originated, in the Covered Countries and may not have been from recycled or scrap sources, we exercised
due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the CMs as required by the SEC rules. For further information, please refer
to Exhibit 1.02.
The disclosures contained in this Form SD are available on our
website, https://auo.com/zh-TW/Stock_Services/index/Material_Information_and_Announcement_1. The website and the information accessible
through it are not incorporated into this specialized disclosure report.
