MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Product Name: HAVOC® XT BLOK KILLS RATS & MICE 2 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Have the product container, label, or Material Safety Data Sheet with you when calling Syngenta (800-888-8372), a poison control center or doctor, or going for treatment. Ingestion: If swallowed: Call Syngenta (800-888-8372), a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have the person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so after calling 800-888-8372 or by a poison control center or doctor. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Eye Contact: If in eyes: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call Syngenta (800-888-8372), a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. Skin Contact: If on skin or clothing: Take off contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap and water. Inhalation: Not applicable. Notes to Physician This product contains anticoagulants with an effect similar to warfarin in that they act by interfering with the synthesis of prothrombin. The specific measure is the prothrombin time. Note this may not become prolonged until 12-18 hours after ingestion. The specific antidote is Vitamin K1 (Phytomenandione BP). Antidote must be administered under medical supervision. Initially, antidote should be given by injection (10-20 mg, or 0.25 mg/kg for children, by slow intravenous infusion at a rate of 1 mg/minute. In severe cases the use of fresh frozen plasma may be required). Maintenance treatment is given orally (40 mg/day in divided doses for adults; up to 20 mg/day in divided doses for children). The prothrombin time and the hemoglobin should be monitored. Patients should be kept under medical supervision until the prothrombin time has been normal for 3 consecutive days. Oral treatment may need to be continued for several months. (20 mg/day in divided doses for adults, and up to 20 mg/day in divided doses for children). (For animal cases the dose is 2-5 mg/kg). Each 20g bar contains 1mg of brodifacoum. Medical Condition Likely to be Aggravated by Exposure As stated above this product contains anticoagulants with an effect similar to that of Warfarin. The anticoagulant interferes with the synthesis of prothrombin. Significant exposure (e.g. ingestion) can cause anticoagulation effects and could aggravate existing blood clotting disorders. 5 . FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Fire and Explosion Flash Point (Test Method): > 375°F (paraffin wax) Method: PMCC Flammable Limits (% in Air): Lower: % Not Applicable Upper: % Not Applicable Autoignition Temperature: Not Available Flammability: Not Flammable Unusual Fire, Explosion, and Reactivity Hazards During a fire, irritating and possibly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. In Case of Fire Use dry chemical, foam or CO2 extinguishing media. Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Evacuate nonessential 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. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES In Case of Spill or Leak Control the spill at its source. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions outlined in Section 8. Sweep up material and place in a compatible disposal container. Once all material is collected, seal container and arrange for disposition. MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Product Name: HAVOC® XT BLOK KILLS RATS & MICE 3 7 . HANDLING AND STORAGE Store the material in a well-ventilated, secure area out of reach of children and domestic animals. Do not store food, beverages or tobacco products in the storage area. Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco use, and cosmetic application in areas where there is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. 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. OR COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS AND/OR ON-FARM APPLICATIONS CONSULT THE PRODUCT LABEL. F Ingestion: Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco usage and cosmetic application in areas where there is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Eye Contact: Eye protection is not required for normal handling. Where eye contact is likely, wear tight-fitting chemical goggles. Skin Contact: Gloves are not required for normal handling. Where heavy contact is likely, wear chemical resistant (such as nitrile or butyl) gloves. Inhalation: Respiratory protection is not required for normal handling. In the event of an usual dust exposure, use engineering controls or a NIOSH-approved particulate respirator (N, P, R, or HE filter) to keep exposure below the Occupational Exposure Limit. 9.

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute Toxicity/Irritation Studies (Finished Product) Ingestion: Practically Non-Toxic Oral (LD50 Rat) : > 5,000 mg/kg body weight Dermal: Not Available Dermal (LD50 Rat) : See “Other Toxicity Information,” Section 11 Inhalation: Not Available Inhalation (LC50 Rat) : See “Other Toxicity Information,” Section 11 Eye Contact: See “Other Toxicity Information,” Section 11 Skin Contact: See “Other Toxicity Information,” Section 11 Skin Sensitization: Not Available Reproductive/Developmental Effects Brodifacoum Technical: Not teratogenic, embryotoxic or fetotoxic in rats or rabbits at doses up to 0.02 mg/kg/day – the dose causing excessive maternal toxicity. Non-genotoxic in a range of assays. Chronic/Subchronic Toxicity Studies Brodifacoum Technical: The biological half-life for brodifacoum in body tissue in rats is > 100 days. Adverse clinical effect can develop from body accumulation. Prolonged prothrombin time, depression, pallor, subcutaneous hemorrhage, bleeding of nose or gums, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, shock and death can develop following exposures. No neurotox studies have been conducted. Carcinogenicity Brodifacoum Technical: Unlikely to be carcinogenic. Other Toxicity Information Effects of overexposure are those of anticoagulant overdose, i.e., reduced blood clotting ability with spontaneous bleeding in various organs. Body accumulation can result from repeated exposures since the half-life of brodifacoum is > 100 days. Individuals with blood clotting disorders may be more susceptible to overexposure effects. Systemically toxic concentrations of this product will probably not be absorbed through human skin. Because this product is a wax block, inhalation is not expected to be a normal route of exposure. No irritation is likely to develop following contact with human eyes. Irritation will probably not develop following contact with human skin. Toxicity of Other Components Blue Pigment: Not Applicable Cereal Ingredients: Not Applicable Paraffin Wax: Not Applicable Target Organs Active Ingredients Brodifacoum Technical: Blood Inactive Ingredients Blue Pigment: Not Applicable Cereal Ingredients: Not Applicable Paraffin Wax: Not Applicable 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Summary of Effects Brodifacoum Technical: The risk of this formulation to most non-target organisms is low. However, if this product is misused or stored improperly, birds and other non-target animals may be at higher risk.
