PRODUCT INFORMATION J RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT Mefenoxam belongs to the phenylamide class of chemistry which interferes with fungal RNA synthesis. Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole class of chemistry which 4 12 Due to seed quality, crop or variety sensitivity, and seed storage conditions beyond the control of Syngenta, no claims are made to guarantee the germination of seed or propagating material for all crop seed when treated with Maxim XL. Treatment of highly mechanically scarred or damaged seed, or seed known to be of low vigor and poor quality, except for the purpose of curative control of existing disease pests, may result in reduced germination and/or reduction of seed and seedling vigor. Treat using equipment similar to that planned for treating the total seed lot. Conduct germination tests on a small portion of seed before committing the total seed lot to a selected seed treatment. Maxim XL, a prepack of the active ingredients of Maxim 4FS (fludioxonil) and Apron XL® (mefenoxam), is a seed treatment fungicide which controls certain soil-borne and seed-borne diseases of crop plants. Fludioxonil is active against Fusarium Rhizoctonia, seed-borne Sclerotinia, Helminthosporium, Tilletia caries (which causes common bunt in wheat) and weakly pathogenic fungi, Aspergillus and Penicillium. Mefenoxam is active against Pythium, Phytophthora and systemic downy mildew. On some crops, additional Apron XL will be required to control Pythium, Phytophthora, and systemic downy mildew. The amount of additional Apron XL needed will depend on the level of disease pressure. Follow all directions on the Apron XL label if mixed with Maxim XL. MEFENOXAM GROUP FLUDIOXONIL GROUP FUNGICIDE FUNGICIDE For resistance management, please note that Maxim XL contains mefenoxam, a Group 4 fungicide, and fludioxonil, a Group 12 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Maxim XL and other Group 4 and Group 12 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed. FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR DISEASE CONTROL, AND/OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES. Maxim XL Page 6

interferes with osmotic signal transduction. To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: J MIXING PROCEDURES The following guidelines may be used to determine the required rate of each product: Apply Maxim XL as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment equipment which provides uniform seed coverage. Uneven or incomplete seed coverage may not give the desired level of disease control. Thoroughly mix the labeled amount of Maxim XL into the required amount of water for the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used. Step 1 - Select the specified rate of Maxim XL required based on the expected level of Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, seed-borne Sclerotinia, Helminthosporium, Tilletia caries, Aspergiiius, or PeniciHium. Use the higher specified rate (0.334 fl oz per 100 lb of seed) when high levels of disease are expected. Step 2 - If necessary, select the rate of additional Apron XL required based on the expected level of Pythium, Phytophthora, or systemic downy mildew. See directions under each crop for specific rate. Maxim XL Page 7 • Rotate the use of Maxim XL or other Group 4 or Group 12 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by the manufacturer. • Adopt an integrated disease management program 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 development, 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 treated fungal populations for resistance development. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crop and pathogens. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866- Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.

SEED CONTAINER LABEL REQUIREMENTS The Federal Seed Act requires that bags containing treated seeds shall be labeled with the following statements: Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being used. Maintain constant agitation of the slurry during the treatment. Maxim XL used at 0.167 fl oz per 100 lb seed will deliver 2.5 g fludioxonil and 1 g mefenoxam per 100 kg of seed. The 0.334 fl oz per 100 lb seed of Maxim XL will deliver 5 g fludioxonil and 2 g mefenoxam per 100 kg of seed. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires the following statements on bags containing seed treated with Maxim XL fungicide: • This seed has been treated with fludioxonil and mefenoxam fungicides. • Do not use treated seed for feed, food or oil purposes. • Use an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed. • Use an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed as stated in 40 CFR 153.155(c). • Allow seed to dry before bagging. • Ground Water Advisory: Mefenoxam is known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. Fludioxonil has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. These chemicals may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. • Treated seed must be planted into the soil at a depth greater than 1 inch. • Forage may not be grazed until 30 days after planting. • Store treated seed away from food and feedstuffs. • Do not allow children, pets or livestock to have access to treated seeds. • Wear long pants, long-sleeved shirt and chemical-resistant gloves when handling treated seed. • Treated seed exposed on soil surface may be hazardous to wildlife. Cover or collect treated seeds spilled during loading and planting. • Dispose of all excess treated seed by burying seed away from bodies of water. • Do not contaminate bodies of water when disposing of planting equipment washwater or rinsate. • Dispose of seed package or containers in accordance with local requirements. Excess treated seed may be used for ethanol production only if (1) by-products are not used for livestock feed and (2) no measurable residues of pesticide remain in ethanol by-products that are used for agronomic practice.
