All terms used but not defined in this Report shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Rule or Form SD, as adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Rule. Unless the context otherwise indicates, “DXP”, “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to DXP Enterprises, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries and any entities that are required to be consolidated.

Accordingly, we are filing the attached Report describing the reasonable country of origin inquiry and additional due diligence steps taken for the 2019 reporting period. The results of our investigation regarding the origin of necessary Conflict Minerals in our supply chain is described in the Report attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01 and in the Company’s website at www.dxpe.com.
