Color Blindness Feature In 2020, we launched Color Blindness monitors. Our color blindness feature consists of two modes: 1) color filter mode for color vision deficiency (CVD) users and a simulation mode for creators to deliver a ά ViewSonic Corporation 2022 Corporate Sustainability Report Corporate Overview Sustainability Governance Our Innovation Responsible Supply Chain Committed to Our Environment Committed to Our Customer Committed to Our Employees & Community Appendix: GRI Index Our Colorblindness modes: Simulation mode and Color Filter mode Color Blindness Simulation Mode color blindness friendly experience. The feature is available in our ColorPro models VP2468a, VP2768a2K and VP3481a monitors. Our vision for ColorPro series not only includes accurate color representation, but also helps and assists with the multimedia accessibility for CVD users. TÜV SÜD conducted rigorous tests on ViewSonic’s color blindness features, including color recognition confirmation, color filter software and color simulation with the aim of establishing a high-quality testing method for the industry. The testing results showed that our color blindness feature algorithm enables color blindness people to successfully identify color differences at about 90%, compared to conventional color filters which allow successful identification at around 7075%. VP2776 was a newly launched model equipped with Color Blindness feature in 2022. Creating Color Blindness Friendly Experience There are 2 types of color blindness mode: 1) Color blindness simulation mode for the monitor Color Filter Mode designers. 2) Color Filter mode for CVD users. • For Color Blindness Simulation mode: This mode caters to graphic designers to envisage their reaction as it would be seen by a CVD user and adjust accordingly. Designer could pick Protanpia, Deuteranopia, Tritanopian, inverted, Grayscale and Grayscale inverted and apply to their current color mode to simulate the visual of specific colorblindness. This innovative technology benefits creators, designers, teachers, especially in preschool, as well as CVD users. CVD users can have a more friendly viewing experience as the content is created with the simulation mode. • For Color Filter mode: This mode caters to CVD users to help them identify color differences. There are 2 levels inside the software. The normal Color Filter and Advanced Setting Filter. Both levels assist colorblindness (or CVD) users customize the display color visibility to more accurately identify color differences. Users can use the advanced setting to switch the contrast level and set the best filter setting. The ColorPro series serves as the ideal solution for creative work, such as photography, design, and video editing. They deliver color-accurate, true-to-life images with industry color standards including sRGB, calibration, and uniformity.

The organizational boundary is set using operational control. • The greenhouse gases identified in this inventory are carbon dioxide (CO 2), methane (CH 4), nitrous oxide (N 2 O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), carbon hexafluoride (SF6), and carbon trifluoride (NF3), which include all the greenhouse gases listed in the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report and exclude the substances listed in the Montreal Convention. The R-600a gas identified by fugitive emission sources is not included in the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report, and thus was not quantified. • GHG emission coefficient adopts the Greenhouse Gas Coefficient Management Table version 6.0.4 provided by Taiwan’s EPA. The electricity emission coefficient adopts the power downstream coefficient announced by Taiwan’s Energy Bureau in 2021 and the coefficients announced by each country’s government; if the official coefficients are not available, the energy statistics data from non-governmental organizations are used. • The GWP value of category 1 adopts the GWP value of the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report; the electricity coefficient of category 2 emission adopts the calculation of GWP from the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report; the Ecoinvent life cycle database used in categories 3 to 5 uses the GWP value of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report. • The fuels used in categories 1 and 2 do not contain biomass components. The raw materials used in other categories may contain biomass raw materials, but the life cycle carbon footprint coefficient used does not separately recognize the biomass raw materials, so it is impossible to analyze and calculate the emissions of the biomass source materials used. 069 About this Report Performance Metrics and Targets Message from the Chairman and CEO Our Sustainability Contribution 2022 Corporate Overview Energy Consumption and Per Person Usage Sustainability Governance ά ViewSonic Corporation 2022 Corporate Sustainability Report Our Innovation Responsible Supply Chain Committed to Our Environment Committed to Our Customer Committed to Our Employees & Community Appendix: GRI Index Electricity Consumption and GHG Emissions ά ViewSonic makes efforts to lower the consumption of electric power.

We want to reduce the environmental impact from our products’ end-of-life disposal and to reduce our landfill waste from our corporate facilities. Our commitment to the environment extends to our own facilities, where we work with certified local recyclers to regularly collect and responsibly dispense with e-waste and warehouse waste. Regular employee training and a review of our ECO-Office Guidelines remind our employees of tips for eco-habits and of our new ecopolicies. Below are the efforts we currently employ in response to responsible waste management: The total weight of hazardous & non-hazardous waste from ViewSonic’s warehouse in Chino, CA disposed of via reuse, recycling, recovery, incineration, and landfill is summarized below: • We only partner with certified local recyclers who regularly collect and responsibly dispense e-waste and warehouse waste. Year • We continue to actively reuse and recycle cardboard, foam, papers, batteries, and printer cartridges. • Establish a win-win program with our local pallet vendors to “collect” all broken pallets from us, to repair and reuse. Hazardous • New recycle program for shrink wraps and tapes that are used in the product packaging. • Company’s commitment to gradually replace the use of Styrofoam box insert for cardboard inserts, resulting in a package 100% recyclable. • We ceased all paper packaging slips for parcel shipments to decrease paper and plastic pouch usage. • To further minimize plastic and disposable waste, in 2021 we started to phase out all possible plastic items and one-time use utensils and cups. By the beginning of 2022, all one-time use utensils and cups were no longer provided.
