3 Fire and Explosion Hazards Suitable extinguishing media Fire Fighting Instructions In the event of fire the following may be released: Hydrogen chloride (HCl) Carbon monoxide (CO) nitrogen oxides (NOx) Hydrogen cyanide (hydrocyanic acid) Sulphur oxides Water spray, Foam, Dry powder, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Sand Avoid contact with spilled product or contaminated surfaces. Keep out of smoke. Fight fire from upwind position. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses. Firefighters should wear NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Dust Explosion Class Not applicable. SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions Methods for cleaning up Keep unauthorized people away. Avoid contact with spilled product or contaminated surfaces. Use personal protective equipment. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Collect and transfer the product into a properly labelled and tightly closed container. Contaminated soil may have to be removed and disposed. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly, observing environmental regulations. Decontaminate tools and equipment following cleanup. Additional advice Do not allow to enter soil, waterways or waste water canal. Do not allow product to contact vegetation. Information regarding safe handling, see section 7. Information regarding personal protective equipment, see section 8. Information regarding waste disposal, see section 13. SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling procedures Handle and open container in a manner as to prevent spillage. Maintain exposure levels below the exposure limit through the use of general and local exhaust ventilation. For personal protection see section 8. Storing Procedures Store in a cool, dry place and in such a manner as to prevent cross contamination with other crop protection products, fertilizers, food, and feed. Page 3 of 9

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Only acute studies have been performed on this product as formulated. The non-acute information pertains to the technical-grade active ingredient, thiacloprid. Acute oral toxicity Acute dermal toxicity rat: LD50: > < 500 mg/kg rat: LD50: > 4,000 mg/kg Page 5 of 9

6 Acute inhalation toxicity female rat: LC50: > < 2.2 mg/l Exposure time: 4 h Determined in the form of liquid aerosol. female rat: LC50: > < 8.8 mg/l Exposure time: 1 h Determined in the form of liquid aerosol. Extrapolated from the 4 hr LC50. male rat: LC50: > 2.2 mg/l Exposure time: 4 h Determined in the form of liquid aerosol. male rat: LC50: > 8.8 mg/l Exposure time: 1 h Determined in the form of liquid aerosol. Extrapolated from the 4 hr LC50. Skin irritation Eye irritation Sensitisation Chronic toxicity rabbit: No skin irritation rabbit: No eye irritation guinea pig: Sensitising OECD Test Guideline 406, Magnusson & Kligman test Thiacloprid caused secondary effects due to significant liver enzyme induction in the liver, thyroid, adrenals, uterus and/or ovaries in chronic studies in rats, mice and dogs. Assessment Carcinogenicity Thiacloprid demonstrated evidence of oncogenicity inlifetime feeding studies in rats (thyroid and uterus) and mice (ovary). These effects, however, were observed only at high doses that also significantly induced hepatic enzyme activity. At lower doses, which did not affect hepatic enzymes, there was no evidence of oncogenicity. ACGIH NTP IARC OSHA Reproductive toxicity REPRODUCTION: Thiacloprid is not considered a primary reproductive toxicant in rats. Reproductive effects were observed but were considered secondary to maternal toxicity. DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Thiacloprid is not considered a primary developmental toxicant in rats and rabbits. Developmental effects were Page 6 of 9

7 observed at doses that caused maternal toxicity. Assessment neurotoxicity Mutagenicity Thiacloprid was not a neurotoxicant in acute, subchronic and developmental neurotoxicity screening studies in rats. Thiacloprid was not mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests. SECTION 12.
