mission

At MEMC our mission is to provide the highest value products and services to our customers in
the semiconductor and solar industries through exceptional quality, technology and service.

Vision
Our values are the foundation of our company. They define who we are and how we work, and
they never change. Our decisions are grounded in these values, and they guide our relationships
with customers, suppliers, shareholders, the community and each other. We live these values
every day:

Integrity
We are trustworthy and we honor our commitments.
Our commitment to integrity is a cornerstone of our success. This drives our dedication to uphold
ourselves to the highest standards of business conduct. By acting with the highest standards of
conduct – even when it means making difficult choices, we will deliver sustained value to our
customers, employees, communities and shareholders.

Team Work
We are a team based organization built on trust.
All MEMC people are part of a global team, committed to working together across countries and
throughout the world. We foster an environment where communications are open, where people
feel free to take risks, to share their points of view and to speak the truth as they see it, in an
environment free of politics. Only by sharing ideas, technologies and talents can the company
deliver compelling products and solutions, and achieve and sustain profitable growth.

Diversity
Diversity is a strength that unlocks our full potential and helps us achieve our goals.
We believe that having a diverse workforce helps us capture a wealth of unique perspectives,
experiences and talents providing for a synergistic workforce that is better than the sum of its
parts. By promoting diversity, we continue to create a culture of inclusion, take the best of each
culture and further strengthen the workforce that builds our brand.

Performance
We are a highly focused team of individuals who drive to succeed, and who value results.
MEMC’s success is founded on talented employees effectively applying services and advanced
technology, innovative and efficient manufacturing and sound business management. We aim to
add more value at lower cost with faster response. Internally, our team members are recognized
for the same things for which the marketplace recognizes MEMC: leadership,

Our culture is what makes us unique. It is how we choose to operate our business. It is a
combination of our vision and our philosophy of retaining, promoting, and attracting the right
people, operating in a way that directly reflects our core values and putting customers first. Our
culture is clearly reflected in the way we treat our employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers
and communities.

Customer Driven
The customer is #1.
We understand the importance of serving the customer. We will be held accountable for
developing strong long-term relationships and delivering the highest level of service to all of our
customers.

Externally Focused
We listen to the world around us.
We are constantly gathering input from our customers and assessing the current and future needs
of the marketplace to drive our strategic direction. To drive continuous improvement toward
superior performance we must keep our focus external and quickly adapt to the evolving
marketplace.

I nnovative
We constantly search for a better way, embracing a spirit of inventiveness.
MEMC has a long history of technical innovation and shares a deep belief in the power of
science and technology. It is this same spirit of innovation that has enabled us to create new
products, new manufacturing methods and new markets, and which will be a key to our
continued success. The spirit of innovation must prevail in all areas and at all levels within the
company, not only in R&D but also in marketing, services, customer relations, manufacturing,
quality control, human resources, finance and communications.

Lean
We believe that being lean, responsive and low-cost equals resiliency.
MEMC continually strives to provide customers better products and services, faster and cost
competitively through a steadfast focus on improvement, efficiency and cost control. We aim to
empower our employees, avoid bureaucracy and maximize speed, responsiveness and flexibility.

Challenge = Opportunity
The expertise of our people will lead us successfully into the future.
At MEMC we believe every business challenge is an opportunity. We will provide a challenging
work environment where individual initiative and skills will be highly valued and recognized.
We are dedicated to giving our employees opportunities to learn, grow and advance in their
careers and we seek talented employees who are driven to improve the quality of our company
and our society.

MEMC’s history includes decades of innovation, industry leadership and financial prudence.
Today we are making strategic decisions to reduce our risk, expand our served markets and

Semiconductor Solutions
MEMC is a global leader in the manufacture and sale of wafers and related products to the
semiconductor industry. Wafers are literally the foundation upon which virtually all of the
world’s integrated circuits are built. Those products, in turn, are the building blocks for the $1
trillion electronics market (cell phones, computers, PDAs, CD/DVD players, satellite and
automotive electronics, etc.) and the $18 billion solar cell/module market (rooftop, solar farms,
consumer lighting, etc.). MEMC has been a pioneer in the design and development of wafer
technologies since 1959, and operates facilities in the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific.
MEMC can provide both standard and customized silicon wafers to meet your needs.
