67 intel.com/responsibility 2021-22 Corporate Responsibility Report Smart and Green Building Practices Our engineers have long incorporated green design into the new construction and renovation of our facilities, which helps us achieve efficiencies in energy consumption, water use, and recycling. We also partner with companies and nonprofits to expand the number of manufacturers implementing green building practices. We have achieved LEED® green building certification for more than 17.9 million square feet of space in 50 buildings. Our new factories and office buildings incor - porate many heat recovery and water conservation and recovery technologies. Currently Intel has several new buildings and site expansions going through the LEED certification process. As part of our recent net zero GHG announcement , we committed to build our new factories to LEED standards. Intel also partners with a robust ecosystem of equipment manufacturers and systems integrators to deliver a new generation of smart building solutions built on interop - erable, secure, and scalable Internet of Things technolo - gies and advanced data analytics—at the network edge.

Product Ecology Intel’s vision is to avoid the use of substances in our products that could harm the environment or human health, and to ensure that we act responsibly and with caution. Intel product material restrictions are based on consideration for legal requirements, international trea - ties and conventions, and specific market requirements. For more than a decade, we have collaborated with suppliers and customers to work toward eliminating hazardous substances such as lead and halogenated flame retardants from our products. While legislation does not require the elimination of halogenated flame retardants in all electronic components, Intel has played a role in facilitating industry consensus around low-halogen practices. We engage with industry com - mittees on the development of materials declaration, test methods, and eco-design standards. Intel leads several global environmental regulations influencing and harmonization efforts within multiple industry trade associations. We also meet the requirements of the European Union’s Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals ( REACH ) regulation and comply with applicable product ecology regulations. When hazardous substances are included within our products, we take steps to ensure that they are handled safely from the time they enter our operations until they are properly disposed of or recycled. Managing electronic waste (e-waste) such as computers, monitors, and phones is a global concern. Most of our products—including motherboards, microprocessors, and other components—fall within the scope of e-waste laws when they are incorporated into a final product, generally by an original equipment manufacturer (OEM). As such, we work with OEMs, retailers, customers, and others to identify shared solutions for used electronics. We also take steps to integrate environmen - tal considerations into the design of our products to minimize environmental impacts of electronics at their end of life. Intel supports the development of green procurement standards and tools such as EPEAT and other eco-design directives. These eco-design standards, directives, and tools are designed to help purchasers in the public and private sectors evaluate, compare, and select electronic products based on environmental leadership and corpo - rate social responsibility attributes. Linking Compensation and Financing to Environmental Performance Since 2008, we have linked a portion of executive and employee compensation to corporate responsibility factors. Our 2021 bonus incorporated environmental-related metrics aligned to our 2030 goals, including conserving more than 7.5 billion gallons of water in our operations, restoring more than 1.5 billion gallons of water to our local watersheds, and conserving 125 million kWh of energy. We exceeded each of the targets, conserving 9.3 billion gallons and restoring 2.3 billion gallons of water, and conserving 162 million kWh of energy globally. In 2022, environmental metrics include achieving 90% renewable electricity globally, conserving 8.5 billion gallons of water in our operations, and restoring 2.5 billion gallons of water to local watersheds. For more information, see our 2022 Proxy Statement . In 2021, we also integrated sustainability metrics into our financing activities for the first time. We entered into a $5 billion, five-year variable-rate revolving credit facility which, if drawn, is expected to be used for general corporate purposes. The interest rate is subject to adjustment if we achieve, or fail to achieve, certain annual energy and water conservation targets established to maintain our progress toward our 2030 corporate responsibility goals on energy and water. In 2021, for the second consecutive year, we achieved these targets. Introduction Our Business Responsible Inclusive Sustainable Enabling Appendix
