That s why last fall, our parent company announced the TOYOTA Environmental Challenge 2050, an ambitious set of six challenges that will move our company and society as a whole closer to a sustainable future over the next 35 years and beyond. The six challenges address four complex environmental issues facing communities all around the world.

3 Challenges 1, 2 and 3 focus on carbon and call for eliminating not just reducing greenhouse gas emissions from our vehicles, operations and supply chain. Challenge 4 addresses water availability and quality; Challenge 5 seeks to move us closer to a recycling-based society; and Challenge 6 is devoted to protecting nature. All six challenges address some of the world s most pressing environmental issues and ultimately seek to create a net positive impact on the planet. And all of them require cooperation if we are to succeed. Here in North America, we are already taking action to move us toward meeting the six challenges. We are working on reducing GHG emissions, energy consumption and water use; improving materials management; and taking action to protect biodiversity. We also joined the Environmental Protection Agency s Suppliers Partnership for the Environment, a forum for auto companies and their suppliers to work together to improve environmental performance.

4 We see this partnership as a key mechanism for sharing best practices and collaborating to develop new and innovative approaches to addressing our environmental impacts. PROTECTED 5 We are asking you, our suppliers, to help us in our efforts. We believe that by working together, we can scale up our positive impacts to make a significant difference. We have updated the Green Purchasing Guidelines (formerly the Green Supplier Guidelines ) to align with TOYOTA s global Environmental Challenge 2050 and to consolidate the Guidelines from three of TOYOTA s North American companies: TOYOTA Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. (TEMA); TOYOTA Motor Sales, , Inc. (TMS); and TOYOTA Canada Inc. (TCI). We request that you incorporate these revised Guidelines into your environmental programs and engage in initiatives that are in accordance with TOYOTA s environmental activities.

5 TOYOTA strives to become a global leader in environmental protection and needs your full support and commitment to make it happen.

These six challenges direct TOYOTA companies worldwide in efforts toward sustainable development.

6 TOYOTA Motor North America, Inc. (TMNA) developed an environmental action plan for fiscal years 2017 to 2021 that puts us on a path to meeting, and in some cases going beyond, the six challenges put forth by our parent company. Our action plan is arranged around four core focus areas: Carbon, Water, Materials and Biodiversity. Within each of these core focus areas, we conduct Outreach activities with Suppliers and Dealers as well as other Stakeholders to expand our positive impacts. We are committed to managing these priority issues as well as promoting awareness and sharing know-how with business partners and other stakeholders to promote positive change. 6 PROTECTED 7 PROTECTED 8 Overview: Request to Suppliers TOYOTA is committed to long-term, stable and mutually beneficial relationships with our North American suppliers.
