27 intel.com/responsibility 2021-22 Corporate Responsibility Report The Intel Political Accountability Guidelines outline our approach to making political contributions, including senior management and Board-level review processes and our commitment to transparency. Decisions on political contributions, whether from the Intel Political Action Committee (IPAC) or corporate funds, consider Intel’s business objectives, corporate policies, and the public policy priorities outlined on our Public Policy and Corporate Responsibility websites. We publish reports on our corporate contributions, IPAC contributions, and trade association membership dues on our Report Builder website. Direct Corporate Contributions. Intel makes relatively few direct political contributions using corporate funds, and has a policy of not making independent political expenditures or funding electioneering communications. Intel Political Action Committee. No corporate funds are contributed to IPAC other than for administrative purposes, and all employee participation in IPAC is voluntary. IPAC's approach targets balanced support of Democratic and Republican candidates each cycle. Industry and Trade Associations. We disclose trade association membership dues and payments to other tax-exempt organizations such as 501(c)(4) and 501(c)(6) organizations annually, including the reported portion of dues used for political purposes for annual dues over $50,000. Lobbying Expenses. Intel files quarterly reports with the Secretary of the US Senate and the Clerk of the US House of Representatives that detail our lobbying activities. These reports can be found in the Senate’s Lobbying Disclosure Act Database . In 2021, our reported lobbying expenditures totaled $4.1 million, compared to $3.6 million in 2020. We regularly evaluate our political spending for effective - ness and alignment as part of our contributions process. Decisions are made based on states and districts with a significant Intel presence and leadership on committees of jurisdiction on important Intel priorities. In response to stakeholder feedback, we have further enhanced our review process by adding reviews of public statements to better assess alignment with our values. When we identify some degree of misalignment, we communicate directly with contribution recipients. In cases of signifi - cant misalignment across our multiple key public policy issues, we take action to realign future funding decisions.
