ESG Oversight

In accordance with NYSE rules and our Audit Committee's charter, our Audit Committee has primary responsibility for overseeing risk management for AMETEK. Nevertheless, our entire Board of Directors, and each other Committee of the Board, is actively involved in overseeing risk management. These risks include those related to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") matters. Our Board of Directors, and each of its Committees, regularly consider various potential risks at their meetings during discussion of our operations and consideration of matters for approval. In addition, we have an active risk management program.

A committee composed of senior executives, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the Comptroller and the Group Presidents, reviews our internal risks, including those relating to our operations, strategy, financial condition, compliance and employees, and our external risks, including those relating to our markets, geographic locations, cyber security, regulatory environment, and economic outlook. This cross-functional team also considers natural resources such as water and climate-related risks. This committee analyzes various potential risks for severity, likelihood and manageability, and develops action plans to address those risks. This committee's findings are presented to the Audit Committee of the Board on a quarterly basis and to the full Board of Directors annually.

This committee meets at least four times annually. Every year, members of the cross-functional team complete a survey ranking the risks facing the company, including climate-related

risks. Based on the results of the survey, the team focuses on mitigating the highest-ranking risks.
