2 Precautionary Statements Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals CAUTION. Harmful if swallowed. Harmful if inhaled. Avoid contact with skin or clothing. Avoid breathing spray mist. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Applicators and other handlers must wear: • Long-sleeved shirt and long pants • Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material including barrier laminate, butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils, nitrile rubber ≥ 14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils, or viton ≥ 14 mils. • Shoes plus socks Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Engineering Controls Statement When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or air- craft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesti- cides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS. USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS Users should: • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. Environmental Hazards This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. This product may impact surface water quality due to run- off of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow groundwater. Surface Water Advisory This product is classified as having high potential for reaching aquatic sediment via runoff for several months or more after application. Poorly draining soils and soils with shallow water tables are more prone to produce runoff that contains this product. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features including ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of this active ingre- dient or its degradates from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applica- tions when rainfall is forecast to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion control practices will reduce this product’s potential to reach aquatic sediment via runoff. FIRST AID If swallowed • Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. • DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to by a poison control center or doctor. • DO NOT give any liquid to the person. • DO NOT give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If inhaled • Move person to fresh air. • If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respiration, prefer- ably by mouth to mouth, if possible. • Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. If on skin • Take off contaminated clothing. • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes. • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.

Product Information This package contains NexicorTM Xemium® brand fungicide, an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) containing the active ingredients fluxapyroxad, pyraclostrobin and propiconazole. To maximize disease control, apply Nexicor in a regularly scheduled protective spray program and use in a rotation program with other fungicides. Preventive applications optimize disease control, resulting in improved plant health. The increase in plant health comes from the combined effect of disease control (including fungal diseases listed in Crop-specific direc- tions), improved growth efficiency and improved stress tolerance. Overall increased plant health may result in an improvement in crop growth and crop quality as well as increased crop yields. Because of its high specific activity, Nexicor has good residual activity against target fungi. Information regarding the contents and levels of metals in this product is available on the Internet at http://www.aapfco.org/metals.htm. Modes of Action Fluxapyroxad, pyraclostrobin, and propiconazole, the active ingredients of Nexicor, belong to three classes of fungicides, the succinate-dehydrogenase (SDH) inhibitors, strobilurins or Quinone Outside Inhibitors (QoI) and the demethylation inhibitors of sterol biosynthesis are classified by the U.S. EPA and Canada PMRA as target site of action Group 7, Group 11, and Group 3 fungicides, respectively. Resistance Management For resistance management, please note that Nexicor contains a premix of a Group 3 (propiconazole), Group 7 (fluxapyroxad), and Group 11 (pyraclostrobin) fungicides. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Nexicor and other Group 3, Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest con- trol may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance- management strategies should be followed. To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Avoid application of more than the total number of appli- cations of Nexicor as stated in Tables 1 and 2. Rotate the use of Nexicor or other Group 3 or Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such a use is permitted. Use at least the minimum labeled rates of each fungicide in the tank mix. • Adopt an integrated disease and pest management pro- gram for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease develop- ment, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. • Monitor treatment area for lack of efficacy that might indicate possible resistance development.

5 • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance- management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact your local BASF representative, extension spe- cialist or certified crop advisor. Application Instructions Apply specified rates of NexicorTM Xemium® brand fungicide as instructed in Table 2. NexicorTM Xemium® brand fungicide Crop-specific Directions . Nexicor can be applied by ground and aerial application. For best results, thorough coverage of plant materials is required. Nexicor can also be applied through sprinkler irrigation equipment. Check equipment frequently for calibration. Under low-level disease conditions, the minimum applica- tion rates can be used while maximum application rates and shortened spray schedules are advised for severe or threatening disease conditions. Cleaning Spray Equipment Spraying equipment must be cleaned thoroughly before and after applying this product, particularly if a product with potential to injure crops was used prior to Nexicor. Ground Application Apply Nexicor in sufficient water to ensure thorough cover- age of foliage, bloom, and fruit. Thorough coverage is required for optimum disease control. Complete coverage of the stem, all the way down to the soil, is required for sup- pression of soilborne diseases of the stem. See Mandatory Spray Drift Directions for further instructions. Instructions for Directed or Banded Crop Sprays The application rates shown in Table 1. NexicorTM Xemium® brand fungicide Restrictions and Limitations Overview and Table 2. NexicorTM Xemium® brand fungicide Crop-specific Directions on this label reflect the amount of product to be applied uniformly over an acre of ground on a broadcast basis. In some crops, Nexicor may be used as a directed or band- ed spray over the rows or plant beds with the alleys or row middles left unsprayed. For such uses, reduce the rate of Nexicor in proportion to the area actually sprayed. Make this adjustment to avoid applying the product at use rates higher than permitted on this label. See Mandatory Spray Drift Directions for further instructions. The following formula may be used to determine the broad- cast equivalent rate for doing directed or banded sprays: sprayed bed width + unsprayed row middle width = total row width band width in inches X broadcast rate per acre = band rate per acrerow width in inches Example: A directed spray application will be made to 45-inch plant beds that are separated by 15 inches of unsprayed row middles. 45 inches sprayed bed width

• 15 inches unsprayed row middles = 60 inches total row width The calculation to determine the appropriate equivalent rate of product to use for this situation based on a label broadcast rate of 7 fluid ounces product/acre follows: 45 inches band width X 7 fl ozs per acre Nexicor = 5.25 fl ozs per acre Nexicor60 inches row width Aerial Application For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (including, but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fishponds). For all crops listed in this label, aerial application can be made where applications are not possible using ground equipment. Thorough coverage is required to obtain opti- mum disease control. Avoid applications under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when spray drift may occur. DO NOT use less than 2 gallons of spray solution per acre. DO NOT apply Nexicor in spray solu- tions that are less than 50% water by volume. Thorough coverage is required for optimum disease control. The reduced spray volumes used in aerial applications may result in physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury from Nexicor applications, particularly when tank mixed with other products. Therefore, before making aerial applications test the spray on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application. See Mandatory Spray Drift Directions for further instructions. Mandatory Spray Drift Directions Ground Application (spray boom) • Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or plant canopy. • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. Ground Application (hand-held) • Take precautions to minimize spray drift. (continued)

6 Aerial Application • DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the ground or plant canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety. • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 mph, the boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft or 75% of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft or 90% of the rotor diameter for helicopters. • Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. • Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. Spray Drift Advisories The applicator is responsible for avoiding off-site spray drift. Be aware of nearby non-target sites and environmen- tal conditions. Importance of Droplet Size An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions. Controlling Droplet Size - Ground Boom • Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. • Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommend- ed for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. • Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift. Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft • Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturer’s recom- mendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight. Boom Height - Ground Boom For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the plants and have minimal bounce. Release Height - Aircraft Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. Shielded Sprayers Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area. Temperature and Humidity When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation. Temperature Inversion Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tem- perature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applica- tions during temperature inversions. Wind Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. Sensitive Areas The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. bodies of water or non-target crops) is minimal and when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas. Directions for Use Through Irrigation Systems Clean chemical tank and injector system thoroughly. Flush system with clean water. Sprinkler Irrigation Applications • This product can be applied through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side [wheel] roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irrigation systems equipment. DO NOT apply this prod- uct through any other type of irrigation system. • Add Nexicor TM Xemium® brand fungicide to the pes- ticide supply tank containing sufficient water to maintain a continuous flow by the injection equipment. In continu- ous moving systems, inject this product-water mixture continuously, applying the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT exceed 1/2 inch (13,577 gallons) of water per acre. In stationary or noncontinuous moving sys- tems, inject the product-water mixture in the last 15 to 30 minutes of each set allowing sufficient time for all of the required pesticide to be applied by all the sprinkler heads and applying the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good

7 control. Maintain good agitation during the entire applica- tion period. • Contact a state extension service specialist, equipment manufacturers or other experts for calibration questions. • The system must contain a functional check valve, vacu- um relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow. • The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. • The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a func- tional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being with- drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. • The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops. • The irrigation line or water pump must include a function- al pressure switch, which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. • Systems must use a metering pump, including a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock. • Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise. • DO NOT connect an irrigation system (including green- house systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safe- ty devices for public water systems are in place. • DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Specific Instructions for Public Water Systems

1. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water sys- tems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone, backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesti- cide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, discharge the water from the public water system into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the res- ervoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function- al, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
4. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function- al, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being with- drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
5. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, including a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fit- ted with a system interlock. Additives and Tank Mixing Information It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and direc- tions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Nexicor TM Xemium® brand fungicide can be tank mixed with advised fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants, and additives as specified in Table 2. Nexicor TM Xemium® brand fungicide Crop-specific Directions . Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants may improve the performance of Nexicor. However, all varieties and cultivars have not been tested with possible tank mix combinations. Local conditions can also influence crop tolerance and may not match those under which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury may result from mixing Nexicor with other products. Therefore, before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants, and additives), test the combination on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application. When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, BASF advises the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributers Association certified adjuvant.

8 Consult a BASF representative or local agricultural authorities for more information concerning additives. If tank mixtures are used, adhere to restrictions due to rates, label instructions and precautions on all labels. Compatibility Test for Tank Mix Components Add components in the following sequence using 2 tea- spoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for each pint of label rate per acre:

1. Water - For 100 gallons per acre spray volume, use 16 cups (1 gallon) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates accordingly. Use only water from the intend- ed source at the source temperature.
2. Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo- emulsions) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
3. Water-soluble products - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
4. Emulsifiable concentrates (oil concentrate or methyl- ated seed oil when applicable) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
5. Water-soluble additives - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
6. Let the solution stand for 15 minutes.
7. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The spray solution must not have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. DO NOT use any spray solution that could clog spray nozzles. Mixing Order Make sure that each component is thoroughly mixed and suspended before adding tank mix partners. Maintain con- stant agitation during mixing application.
8. Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 3/4 full of clean water.
9. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mix- ing and application.
10. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
11. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before continuing.
12. Water-dispersible products (including dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo- emulsions) - For containers 5 gallons or less, shake well prior to use.
