MICHAEL KORS HOLDINGS LIMITED (Registrant) By: /s/ Krista A. McDonough May 31, 2018 Name: Krista A. McDonough Title: Senior Vice President, General Counsel EXHIBIT INDEX Exhibit Description 1.01 Conflict Minerals Report for the calendar year ended December 31, 2017. Exhibit 1.01 Conflict Minerals Report Michael Kors Holdings Limited has included this Conflict Minerals Report as an exhibit to its Form SD in respect of calendar 2017 as provided for in Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Form SD (collectively, the “Conflict Minerals Rule”). The date of filing of this Conflict Minerals Report is May 31, 2018. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms “we,” “its,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Michael Kors Holdings Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries. As used herein, “Conflict Minerals” or “3TG” are cassiterite (tin), columbite-tantalite (tantalum), gold and wolframite (tungsten), without regard to the location of origin of the minerals or derivative metals. Forward-Looking Statements The statements in this document that refer to plans and expectations for future periods are forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Examples of forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the additional steps that we intend to take to mitigate the risk that our necessary 3TG benefit armed groups. You should not place undue reliance on such statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, which could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties may include, but are not limited to, the continued implementation of satisfactory traceability and other compliance measures by our direct and indirect suppliers, on a timely basis or at all, whether smelters and refiners and other market participants responsibly source 3TG and political and regulatory developments, whether in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) region, the United States or elsewhere. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, except as required by applicable laws or regulations. Applicability of the Conflict Minerals Rule to Our Company We are a global fashion luxury group, consisting of iconic brands that are industry leaders in design, style and craftsmanship. Our Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo brands cover the full spectrum of fashion luxury categories including women’s and men’s accessories, footwear and apparel as well as wearable technology, watches, jewelry, eyewear and a full line of fragrance products. We believe that we are subject to the Conflict Minerals Rule because some of the products that we contract to manufacture may contain 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of such products. In November 2017, we completed the acquisition of Jimmy Choo Group Limited and its subsidiaries (“Jimmy Choo”). Under the Conflict Minerals Rule, we are permitted to exclude Jimmy Choo products from this Conflict Minerals Report and accordingly Jimmy Choo products are not considered in-scope for purposes of this Conflict Minerals Report. In-scope product information in respect of calendar 2017 is provided under “Product Information” below. Through the efforts described in this Conflict Minerals Report, we seek to ensure that our sourcing practices are consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy, which is described below. We do not directly manufacture products. We contract to manufacture products, and, therefore, we do not directly source 3TG from mines, smelters or refiners, and are many levels removed from these market participants. The efforts undertaken to identify the origin of 3TG in our products reflect our circumstances and position in the supply chain, and we work with our direct suppliers so that they may provide us with accurate information about the origin of necessary 3TG minerals in the products that we contract to manufacture. Our Conflict Minerals Policy We are opposed to human rights abuses such as those that are occurring in connection with the mining of certain minerals from locations in the DRC. We also take our obligations under U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and the laws in countries in which we operate seriously, including our compliance obligations under the Conflict Minerals Rule. In addition, we are committed to principles of ethical business practice and recognition of the dignity of others, including the responsible sourcing of 3TG, and we expect that our suppliers share this commitment. 1 In furtherance of the foregoing, we have adopted and communicated to our suppliers and the public a company policy (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”) for determining the use and origin of 3TG in our supply chain. Our Conflict Minerals Policy is available on the Investor Relations page of our website at: http://investors.michaelkors.com/resources/conflict-minerals/default.aspx. The information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this Conflict Minerals Report or the Form SD and should not be considered part of this Conflict Minerals Report or the Form SD. The Conflict Minerals Policy includes, but is not limited to, our expectations that our suppliers: 1. put in place procedures for the traceability of 3TG; 2. cooperate with our 3TG due diligence process, including by providing us, from time to time, with written certifications and other information concerning the origin of 3TG included in products and/or components supplied to us; 3. maintain reviewable records supporting the source of 3TG; 4. adopt policies and procedures with respect to 3TG consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, including the Supplement on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and the Supplement on Gold (collectively, the “OECD Guidance”), including the adoption of a risk mitigation strategy to respond to identified risks in the supply chain, and communicate such policies and procedures to their personnel and direct and indirect suppliers; and 5. require their direct and indirect suppliers to adopt policies and procedures that are consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy. We do not support the embargoing of 3TG from the DRC region, but rather encourage our suppliers to continue to source responsibly from the region. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry As required by the Conflict Minerals Rule, for calendar 2017, we conducted a “reasonable country of origin inquiry” (“RCOI”). We designed our RCOI in good faith to determine the origin of 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of products that we contract to manufacture. The results of our RCOI are discussed on Annex A to this Conflict Minerals Report. To the extent applicable, for our RCOI, we utilized the same processes and procedures as for our due diligence, particularly Steps 1 and 2 of the OECD Guidance design framework, which are described below in this Conflict Minerals Report. Our outreach included 219 suppliers (the “Suppliers”). We determined which of our products were in-scope or potentially in-scope for purposes of the Conflict Minerals Rule through product specifications, visual inspection, supplier inquiries and other information known to us. We also considered the degree of influence that we exercised over the materials, parts and components of the products. Pursuant to the Conflict Minerals Rule, based on the results of our RCOI, we conducted due diligence for calendar 2017. These due diligence efforts are discussed below. Due Diligence Program Design and Execution Design Framework We designed our due diligence measures relating to 3TG to conform with, in all material respects, the criteria set forth in the OECD Guidance.
