Section 1 — Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Section 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Post Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Post Properties” or the “Company”) develop, own, and manage upscale multi-family apartment communities in selected markets in the United States. As a developer, owner, and manager of apartment communities, none of the Company’s ongoing operations are within the ambit of the specialized disclosure relating to physical products. However, the Company completed construction of two condominium developments as of the end of 2012 and made sales of condominium units at both developments during calendar year 2013. While substantially all materials utilized in the construction of the two condominium developments existed outside of the supply chain as of January 31, 2013, in certain cases the Company provided custom finishing options on or after February 1, 2013. The Company believes it is possible that during selected finishing activities on some of the condominium units sold after February 1, 2013, one or more conflict minerals may have been used in a manner necessary to the functionality of such condominium units (the “Completed Units”).
Based on the Company’s reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”), the Company has determined that, with respect to the Completed Units for the period from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 (the “Reporting Period”), while it does not have a specific reason to believe that any necessary conflict minerals utilized in the construction of these units may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining country (collectively the “DRC”), the RCOI has not been able to rule out the possibility. As a result, a Conflict Minerals Report, as required by Rule 13-p1, is provided as an exhibit to this specialized disclosure.
