2 Precautionary Statements Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals CAUTION. Harmful if inhaled or swallowed. Avoid contact with skin or clothing. Avoid breathing spray mist. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Applicators and other handlers must wear: • Long-sleeved shirt and long pants, • Chemical-resistant gloves made of barrier laminate or butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils or nitrile rubber ≥ 14 mils or neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ≥ 14 mils or viton ≥ 14 mils, and • Shoes plus socks User Safety Requirements Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/ maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Remove and wash contami- nated clothing before reuse. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product’s concentrate. DO NOT reuse them. 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 Terrestrial Use 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 dis- posing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. DO NOT pour equipment washwaters or rinsate down into a natural drain or water body. DO NOT exceed the maximum seasonal use rate or the total number of applications of Versys TM insecticide per season. To reduce the potential for devel- oping insecticide-resistance, rotate to an insecticide with a different mode of action. Non-target Organisms Versys is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Drift and run-off from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organ- isms in water adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT apply when weather conditions favor drift from treated areas. Although Versys is not acutely toxic to bees, use at the maximum single application rate may have some short-term behavioral effects on adult bees, but is not expected to have long-term impacts on bees and overall colony health. Ground Water Advisory Afidopyropen and a degradate of concern may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Surface Water Advisory Versys may impact surface water quality due to run-off of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. Versys is classified as having a medium-high potential for reaching both sur- face water and aquatic sediment via run-off for several weeks to months after application. A well-maintained veg- etative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams and springs, as required under the Directions For Use, will reduce the potential for loading of FIRST AID If inhaled • Move person to fresh air. • If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respiration, preferably by mouth to mouth, if possible. • Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. If swallowed • Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. • Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. • DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. • DO NOT give anything to an unconscious person. 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 VersysTM insecticide contains the technical active ingre- dient Inscalis® insecticide, commonly known as afidopyropen. When used as directed, Versys provides knockdown and residual control of listed pests including aphids, whiteflies, and Asian citrus psyllid within the crops included on this label. Versys is active against whitefly egg, early instar, and adult life stages. Additionally, some scale pests are controlled or suppressed by Versys. Versys acts quickly to inhibit feeding. While Versys does demonstrate translaminar activity, and moves toward plant leaf margins, it is not fully systemic. Therefore, good cover- age of plant surfaces will result in the most effective control. Use of sufficient water volume is important, espe- cially under dense canopy to ensure best performance. Versys can be used effectively in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and resistance management programs. Mode of Action The active ingredient in Versys is classified by the IRAC (Insecticide Resistance Action Committee) as target-site- of-action Group 9D insecticide, a chordotonal organ TRPV (Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid) channel modulator. Versys disrupts the gating of TRPV (Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid) channel complexes in chordotonal stretch receptor organs of insects. This dis- rupts feeding and other behaviors in target insects. Repeated use of insecticides with similar modes of action can lead to the buildup of resistant pest populations. Resistance Management For resistance-management, Versys contains a Group 9D insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Versys and other Group 9D insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resis- tance management strategies should be followed. To reduce the potential for developing insect resistance, rotate to an insecticide with a different mode of action. Monitor treated pest populations for resistance develop- ment. Read product label before applying any insecticide and follow label directions. To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps: • Rotate the use of Versys or other Group 9D insecti- cides within a growing season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests. Avoid application of more than the maximum sea- sonal use rate or the total number of consecutive sprays of Versys per season. • Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. DO NOT rely on the same mix- ture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by the Insecticide Resistance Action Commit- tee (IRAC):

• Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species.
• Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not recommended for insect resistance management.
• When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the individual compo- nents for the targeted pest(s).
• Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits.
• The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mix- tures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance man- agement benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active. • Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rota- tion, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Monitor after application for unexpected target pest sur- vival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of

6 resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide resistance manage- ment and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact BASF representatives at 1-800-832-HELP (4357). Application Instructions For maximum effectiveness, apply VersysTM insecticide at the first sign of pest presence before the populations increase to damaging levels. Application should be timed to coincide with locally recommended treatment threshold levels for the target pest population. Versys is rainfast one (1) hour after an application has dried. Apply Versys in a sufficient volume of water to ensure thorough coverage of foliage. Ground Application Apply to foliage using properly calibrated ground sprayers. Thorough and uniform spray will result in the most effective control. Apply Versys in minimum water volume per acre as indicated in Crop-specific Application Instructions table. Applications made at lower volumes may result in less than thorough coverage especially in dense canopy crops. Slower activity and/or less control may result if spray coverage is limited. Aerial Application Thorough coverage is required to obtain optimum insect control when aerial applications are employed. Avoid appli- cations under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when spray drift may occur. Use no less than the minimum allowed gallons of spray solution per acre. Refer to Crop-specific Application Instructions table. For all crops, thorough coverage is required for opti- mum pest insect control. DO NOT apply when conditions favor drift from target area. DO NOT apply directly to humans or animals. Sprinkler Irrigation System Application Versys may be applied using sprinkler irrigation systems on specific crops as noted in the Crop-specific Application Instructions table. Application Through Sprinkler Irrigation Systems 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 irriga- tion systems. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Add this product to the pesticide supply tank containing sufficient water to maintain a continuous flow by the injec- tion equipment. In continuous moving systems, inject this product-water mixture continuously, applying the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT exceed 1/4 inch (6,788 gallons) per acre. In stationary or noncontinuous moving systems, 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 sprin- kler 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 effec- tiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good control. Maintain good agitation during the entire application period. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact a state extension service specialist, equipment manufactur- ers or other experts. 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 contami- nation 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 withdrawn 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 functional 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, 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. 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. 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

7 pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be dis- charged 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 reservoir 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, 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 fit- ted with a system interlock. 7. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Spray Drift Reduction Management DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. The interaction of many equip- ment and weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering these factors when making application decisions. Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator. Importance of Droplet Size. An important factor influ- encing drift is droplet size. Small droplets (<150 to 200 microns) drift more than large droplets. Within typical equipment specifications, applications should be made to deliver the largest droplet spectrum that provides sufficient control and coverage. Use only medium or coarser spray nozzles (for ground and aerial applications) according to ASAE (S572) definition for standard nozzles. In conditions of low humidity and high temperatures, applicators should use a coarser droplet size. Ground Applications. Wind speed must be measured adjacent to the application site on the upwind side, imme- diately prior to application. For ground boom applications, apply using a nozzle height of no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy. For airblast applications, turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and when spray- ing the outer two (2) rows. To minimize spray loss over the top in orchard applications, spray must be directed into the canopy. Aerial Applications. The spray boom should be mount- ed on the aircraft to minimize drift caused by wing tip vortices. The minimum practical boom length should be used, and must not exceed 75% of the wing span or 80% rotor diameter. Flight speed and nozzle orientation must be considered in determining droplet size. Spray must be released at the lowest height consistent with pest control and flight safety. DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a great- er height is required for aircraft safety. When applications are made with a cross-wind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this dis- placement at the downwind edge of the application area by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Making appli- cations at the lowest height that is safe reduces the exposure of the droplets to evaporation and wind. Wind Speed Restrictions. Drift potential increases at wind velocities of less than 3 mph (due to inversion poten- tial) or more than 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size, canopy and equipment specifica- tions determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition. DO NOT apply when wind velocity exceeds 15 mph and avoid gusty and windless conditions. Risk of exposure to sensitive aquatic areas can be reduced by avoiding applications when wind direction is toward the aquatic area. Restrictions During Temperature Inversions. DO NOT make ground applications during temperature inversions. Drift potential is high during temperature inver- sions. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud. Temperature inversions are characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by mist or ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source. Smoke that layers and moves laterally near the ground surface in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good verti- cal mixing. Cleaning Spray Equipment Before application, start with clean, well-maintained appli- cation equipment. Following spray application, thoroughly clean all application equipmen t. Drain application equip- ment of any excess product. Thoroughly rinse application equipment and flush hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water. Clean all other associated application equipment. Take all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. DO NOT clean equipment near wells, water sources, or desirable vegetation.

8 Additives and Tank Mixing Information Shake container well before use. VersysTM insecticide can be tank mixed with most rec- ommended fungicides, insecticides, liquid fertilizers, adjuvants, and additives. 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. Under certain conditions or when recommended under the Crop-specific Application Instructions , adjuvants can improve the performance of Versys. However, all vari- eties and cultivars have not been tested with the solo product or all possible tank mix combinations. Local con- ditions can also influence crop tolerance and may not match those under which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility, reduced pest control, or crop inju- ry can result from mixing Versys with other products. Before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecticides, liquid fertilizers, adjuvants, and additives), test the combination on a small portion of the crop to be treated (including plant cultivars) to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application. Always follow the most restrictive label use directions. Evaluate for crop response 3 to 7 days before making an application to the entire crop. When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, BASF recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant. Consult a BASF representative or local agricultural authori- ties for more information concerning additives. Mixing Order Make sure each component is thoroughly mixed and sus- pended before adding tank mix partners. If the spray mixture is allowed to settle for any period of time, thorough agitation is essential to resuspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. Maintain constant agitation during application. Shake Versys container well before use.

1. Water - Begin by filling a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 1/2 to 3/4 full of clean water.
2. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and application.
3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
4. 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.
5. Water-soluble additives (including dry and liquid fer- tilizers such as ammonium sulfate or urea ammonium nitrate).
6. Water-dispersible products (dispersible concen- trates, dry flowables, wettable powders, other suspension concentrates, or suspo-emulsions). Add Versys at this point in the mixing.
7. Water-soluble products
8. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as oil concentrates when applicable)
9. Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when applicable)
10. Remaining quantity of water
