Change Title: Product process change.

Products Affected: See Appendix A

Description of the Change: : In an effort to make our product line more compatible with

regulatory and environmental guidelines, we are changing the volume manufacturing process for

our products to make them RoHS compliant with Aavid Thermalloy specification RoHS 9000.

(Available at http://www.aavidthermalloy.com/RoHS.shtml ).

These products are already compliant. Product that is RoHS compliant is identified with a “G”

suffix at the end of the part number as shown in Appendix A. This change is to update our internal

system with the “G” identifier.

The base material, dimensions and thermal performance of these products remain unchanged.

Scheduling of Change:

Sample Date: Available immediately.

Volume Production: Available immediately.

EOL of unchanged Product: Not applicable.

Customer Impact: This is a part number change only. Please update your internal

documentation to reflect the “G” suffix and amend all outstanding purchase orders with Aavid-

Thermalloy to reflect the new part number.

Qualification Results: Not applicable

Contact Information: For question please contact Aavid Thermalloy Technical Support at

info@aavid.com or your local sales office.

Please respond with any issues within 30 days of this notification. Lack of acknowledgment of the

change constitutes acceptance of the change.
