Values are not product specifications. SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES IF POISONING IS SUSPECTED, immediately contact the poison information centre, doctor or nearest hospital. Have the product container, label or Safety Data Sheet with you when calling Syngenta, a poison control centre or doctor, or going for treatment. Tell the person contacted the complete product name, and the type and amount of exposure. Describe any symptoms and follow the advice given. Call the Syngenta Emergency Line [1-800-327-8633 (1-800- FASTMED)], for further information. Eye Contact: Flush eyes with clean water, holding eyelids apart for a minimum of 15-20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eyes. Call Syngenta, a poison control centre or doctor for treatment advice. Obtain medical attention immediately if irritation persists. Skin Contact: Immediately remove contaminated clothing and wash skin, hair and fingernails thoroughly with soap and water. Flush skin with running water for a minimum of 15-20 minutes. Call Syngenta, a poison control centre or doctor for treatment advice. Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. If not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth, if possible. Call Syngenta, a poison control centre or doctor for treatment advice. Ingestion: If swallowed, immediately contact Syngenta, a poison control centre, doctor or nearest hospital for treatment advice. Have person sip a glass of water if able to do so. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by a physician or a poison control centre. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, have victim lean forward with head down to avoid breathing in of vomitus, rinse mouth and administer water. Most Important Symptoms/Effects, Acute and Delayed: Harmful if inhaled. May cause minor eye or skin irritation. Indication of Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment: There is no specific antidote. Treat symptomatically. SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable (and Unsuitable) Extinguishing Media: Use foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder, halon extinguishant or water fog or mist. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread the fire. Specific Hazards Arising from the Product: Can decompose at high temperatures forming toxic gases. During a fire, irritating and possibly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Special Protective Equipment and Precautions for Fire-Fighters: Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Evacuate non-essential personnel from the area to prevent human exposure to fire, smoke, fumes or products of combustion. Prevent use of contaminated buildings, area, and equipment until decontaminated. Water run-off can cause environmental damage. Contain run-off water with, for example, temporary earth barriers. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures: Control the spill at its source. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions outlined in Sections 7 and 8. Use adequate ventilation and equipment and wear clothing as described in Section 8 and/or the product label. Environmental Precautions: Contain the spill to prevent from spreading or contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems or any body of water. Spillages or uncontrolled discharges into watercourses must be reported to the appropriate regulatory body. Methods and Materials for Containment and Cleaning Up: Pump or scoop large amounts of liquid into a disposable container. Absorb remaining liquid or smaller spills with clay, sand or vermiculite. Scoop or seep up material and place into a disposal container. Wash area with detergent and water. Pick up wash liquid with additional absorbent and place into a compatible disposal container. On soils, small amounts will naturally decompose. For large amounts, skim off the upper contaminated layer and collect for disposal. Once all material is cleaned up and placed in a disposal container, seal container and arrange for disposal. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco use, and cosmetic application in areas where there is a potential for exposure to the material. Avoid breathing vapours, dust or spray mist. Wear full protective clothing and equipment (see Section 8). After work, rinse gloves and remove protective equipment, and wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling, and before eating, tobacco use, drinking, applying cosmetics or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use and separate from household laundry. Keep containers closed when not in use. Protect product, wash or rinse water, and contaminated materials from uncontrolled release into the environment, or from access by animals, birds or unauthorized people. Conditions for Safe Storage, Including Any Incompatibilities: Store in original container in a well-ventilated, cool, dry, secure area. Protect from heat, sparks and flame. Do not expose sealed containers to temperatures above 40 °C. Refer to the product label for specific storage recommendations, including minimum storage temperature and freeze/thaw stability. Keep separate from other products to prevent cross contamination. Rotate stock. Clean up spilled material immediately. SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION ARE INTENDED FOR THE MANUFACTURE, FORMULATION, PACKAGING AND USE OF THIS PRODUCT. CONSULT THE PRODUCT LABEL FOR COMMERCIAL AND/OR ON-FARM APPLICATIONS.

Appropriate Engineering Controls: If necessary, ensure work areas have ventilation, containment, and procedures sufficient to maintain airborne levels below the TLV (threshold limit value). Warehouses, production areas, parking lots and waste holding facilities must have adequate containment to prevent environmental contamination. Provide separate shower and eating facilities. Individual Protection Measures: General: Avoid breathing dust, vapours or aerosols. Avoid contact with eye, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling and before eating, drinking, applying cosmetics or handling tobacco. Ingestion: Do not eat, drink, handle tobacco, or apply cosmetics in areas where there is a potential for exposure to this material. Always wash thoroughly after handling. Eyes: Where eye contact is likely, use chemical splash goggles. Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and safety shower. Skin: Where contact is likely, wear chemical-resistant (such as nitrile or butyl) gloves, coveralls, socks and chemical- resistant footwear. For overhead exposure, wear chemical-resistant headgear. Inhalation: A particulate filter respirator may be necessary until effective engineering controls are installed to comply with occupational exposure limits. Use a NIOSH certified respirator with any N, R, P or HE filter. Use a self-contained breathing apparatus in cases of emergency spills, when exposure levels are unknown, or under any circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
