TIFFANY’S COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Our goals are to know the origins of all the materials we use in our designs, and
to know that the mining companies involved are committed to the highest
standards of social and environmental responsibility.

To help ensure the integrity of our supply chain, Tiffany created Laurelton Diamonds,
a wholly owned subsidiary that procures rough diamonds and manages our
worldwide supply chain that sources, cuts, polishes and supplies finished stones
to Tiffany.

Furthermore, Tiffany & Co. purchases diamonds only in those countries that are
full participants in the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS). This is an
international cooperative monitoring system created to eliminate the flow of
"conflict diamonds"—diamonds that are smuggled out of war-torn regions by
those seeking to finance violence. The Kimberley Process requires the participating
countries to tightly control the import and export of rough diamonds.
