3 GENERAL INFORMATION ABSOLUTE® Maxx Fungicide is a broad spectrum fungicide for the control of certain diseases of barley, corn, peanut, pecan, soybean, wheat, and grasses grown for seed . ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide works by interfering with both energy and cell membrane production by plant pathogenic fungi . UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS CONDUCIVE TO EXTENDED INFECTION PERIODS, ADDITIONAL FUNGICIDE APPLICATIONS BEYOND THE NUMBER ALLOWED BY THIS LABEL MAY BE NEEDED . UNDER THESE CONDITIONS, USE ANOTHER FUNGICIDE REGISTERED FOR THE CROP/DISEASE . FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC) RECOMMENDATIONS For resistance management, please note that ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide contains both a Group 3 and Group 11 fungicide . Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide and other Group 3 or Group 11 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 . To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide or other Group 3 or Group 11 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/bacterial 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 crops and pathogens . • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937) . You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance . SPRAY EQUIPMENT Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control . Applications using sufficient water volume to provide thorough and uniform coverage generally provide the most effective disease control . For ground application equipment, a minimum of 10 gal/A is recommended . For aerial application equipment, a minimum of 2 gal/A is recommended . Broadcast Ground Sprayers Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application . Be certain that nozzles are the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom . Calibrate the sprayer before use . Use a pump with the capacity to: (1) maintain a minimum of 35 psi at nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient agitation in the tank to keep the mixture in suspension – this requires recirculation of 10% of the tank volume per minute . Use jet agitators or a liquid sparge tube for vigorous agitation .

4 Use screens to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging . Screens placed on the suction side of the pump should be 16-mesh or coarser . Do not place a screen in the recirculation line . Use 50-mesh screens at the nozzles . Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations . For information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturer’s and/or state recommendations . For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the current state agricultural experiment station recommendations . AERIAL APPLICATION Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when excessive spray drift may occur . Do not apply directly to humans or animals . Not registered for aerial application in New York State . CHEMIGATION Application Through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation) – Apply ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide through irrigation equipment only to crops for which chemigation is specified on this label. ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide alone or in combination with other pesticides which are registered for application through irrigation systems, may be applied through irrigation systems . Apply this product only through center pivot, solid set, hand move, or moving wheel irrigation systems . Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system . Illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water . If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts . Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system, unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place . 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 . Operating Instructions 1 . The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow . 2 . The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump . 3 . The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, 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 withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down . 4 . The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops . 5 . The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected . 6 . Systems must use a metering pump, such as 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 . 7 . Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended . Center Pivot Irrigation Equipment Notes: (1) Use only with drive systems which provide uniform water distribution . (2) Do not use end guns when chemigating ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide through center pivot systems because of non-uniform application .

5 Determine the size of the area to be treated . Determine the time required to apply 1/8-1/2 inch of water over the area to be treated when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures as recommended by the equipment manufacturer . When applying ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution . Run the system at 80-95% of the manufacturer’s rated capacity . Using water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line pressure . Determine the amount of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system . Add the required amount of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements to the solution tank . Make sure the system is fully charged with water before starting injection of the ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide solution . Time the injection to last at least as long as it takes to bring the system to full pressure . Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period . Continue to operate the system until the ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide solution has cleared the sprinkler head . Solid Set, Hand Move, and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment When applying ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution . Determine the amount of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system . Add the required amount of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide into the same quantity of water used to calibrate the injection period . Operate the system at the same pressure and time interval established during the calibration . Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed . Continue to operate the system until the ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide solution has cleared the last sprinkler head . MIXING PROCEDURES Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate operation . Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product . Vigorous agitation is necessary for proper dispersal of the product . Maintain maximum agitation throughout the spraying operation . Do not let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank . Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to a previously treated area . ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide Alone: Add approximately 1/2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank . With the agitator running, add the ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide to the tank . Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water . Begin application of the solution after the ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide has completely and uniformly dispersed into the mix water . Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied . ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide + Tank Mix Partners: Add approximately 1/2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank . Start the agitator running before adding any tank-mix partners . In general, tank-mix partners should be added in this order: products packaged in watersoluble packaging*, wettable powders, wettable granules (dry flowables), liquid flowables such as ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide, liquids, and emulsifiable concentrates . Always allow each tank-mix partner to become fully and uniformly dispersed before adding the next product . Provide sufficient agitation while adding the remainder of the water . Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied .

• Note: When using ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide in tank mixtur es, all products in water-soluble packaging should be added to the tank before any other tank-mix partner, including ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide . Allow the water-soluble packaging to completely dissolve and the product(s) to completely disperse before adding any other tank-mix partner to the tank . If using ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide in a tank mixture, observe all directions for use, crop/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations which appear on the tank-mix partner product label . No label dosage rate must be exceeded, and the most restrictive label precautions and limitations must be followed . This product must not be mixed with any product

6 which prohibits such mixing . Tank mixtures or other applications of products referenced on this label are permitted only in those states in which the referenced products are registered . ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide is compatible with most insecticide, fungicide, and foliar nutrient products . However, the physical compatibility of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide with tank-mix partners should be tested before use . To determine the physical compatibility of ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide with other products, use a jar test, as described below . Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 qt . of water . Add wettable powders and water-dispersible granular products first, then liquid flowables, and emulsifiable concentrates last . After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 5 minutes . If the combination remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physically compatible . Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank . The crop safety of all potential tank mixes including additives and other pesticides on all crops has not been tested . Before applying any tank mixture not specifically recommended on this label, the safety to the target crop should be confirmed . To test for crop safety, apply ABSOLUTE Maxx Fungicide to the target crop in a small area and in accordance with label instructions for the target crop . MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT Aerial Applications • For aerial applications, 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 be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters . Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters . • Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety . • Applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field . • Do not apply during temperature inversions . Airblast applications • Sprays must be directed into the canopy . • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site . • User must turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and when spraying outer row . • Do not apply during temperature inversions . Ground Boom Applications • Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy . • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572 . I) . • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site . • Do not apply during temperature inversions .

7 SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL 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 pr oduced 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 recommended 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 manufacturers recommendations 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 crop 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 INVERSIONS Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion . Temperature 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 applications 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 . Handheld Technology Applications: Take precautions to minimize spray drift .
