I am a paralegal employed by the Locks Law Firm of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 2. On November 18, 2014 I traveled to the Othmer Library of Chemical History, located at 315 Chestnut Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 3. While at the library, I reproduced the following publications: Warning Labels, 1946, Pages 1-63 4. These digital images were captured from the original publications housed at the archival section of the Othmer Library of Chemical History, The original publications are the property of the Othmer Library of Chemical History, and were returned to their custody following their reproduction. Each of these documents is over 20 years old and were found at a library of chemical history, where they would be expected to be maintained. I declare under penalty o f perjury under the laws of the State o f Pennsylvania that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 19th day of November, 2014. NOTARY: Subscribed and sworn to this 19th day of November, 2014, before me, the undersigned, a notary public in and for the City of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, and as witnessed by my hand and official seal.

County M y Commission Expires June 14,2016 io w MANUAL L -l--A GUIDE FOR THE PREPARATION OF WARNING LABELS FOR HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS Adopted 1945 Revised April 1946 The development of new chemical products and th8 introduction of chemical processes into ever-widening fields has accentuated the need for furnishing appropriate information in those cases where special precautions are nece33ary. Many chemicals present no hazards in normal handling and storage and for these products no precautionary labels are necessary. The education of employees regarding chemical hazards is, and must remain, the direct respon sibility of their employers. However, such hazards are not confined to employees alone, and infor mation concerning them should, so far as practicable, reach every person using, transporting, or storing chemicals. The most practical means for. the seller to disseminate this information appears to be by labels affixed to containers of hazardous chemicals, bearing appropriate precautionary statements and instructions stated as simply and briefly as circumstances permit. In the interest of uniformity and more adequate labeling of chemical products, the Manufac turing Chemists' Association has prepared this Manual for the benefit and guidance of its members. A series of definitions is included in Schedule 1 in order that the terms used may be clearly under stood. In addition to the general recommendations contained herein, the MCA has prepared sug gested labels for Specific products. These have been printed as Manual L-2, which will be supple mented from time to time as additional recommended labels'are developed. A precautionary label doea not take the place of safety equipment such as airline respirators, gas masks, clothing, shoes, etc. goggles. Individual statutes, regulations or ordinances may require that particular information b included on a label or that a specific label be affixed to a container. In each case, the requirements of these laws should also be studied. The warning labels suggested in this Manual should be used in addition to, or in combination with, any label required by law.9 \V . h r*5 . i I s :- M 16 m THE CHEMISTS' CLUB A --------- LT8RAHY--------- WARNING LABELS PART 1 GUIDE FOR THE PR EPA R A TIO N .

C, I PREPARATION OF PRECAUTIONARY LABELS The basic considerations in the preparation of a precautionary label for any chemical product (includingmixtures) are: 1) Determination of the hazards present in the particular chemical product, 2) Selection of appropriate statements for each significant hazard inherent in the product. 3) Arrangement of statements in the order of emphasiB desired. The moat frequently encountered hazards have been classified by the MCA into 10 types as listed in Schedule 2. Set opposite each class are statements illustrating characteristic precautions usually required for that type of hazard. Many chemical products will have more than one type of hazard, in which case appropriate statements for each significant type should be included on the label. Most chemical products con tain impurities. When these are present in harmful quantities, appropriate warnings and precau- * '1 be included on the labels. As each chemical product must be treated individually, there will be many instances in which the illustrative statements will not be applicable either because.they do not accurately express the degree of hazard or because they fall to cover the particular characteristics. In such cases, suitable statements should be selected from Schedule 3. This Schedule presents a more comprehensive list of statements arranged in columnar form, and grouped as follows: A Signal Word B Hazards Precautionary Measures Instructions, in Case of Accident Column A--The degree of hazard can bo expressed only In relative terms. The purpose is two-fold : to Indicata to the reader the comparative seriousness of the danger involved in handling a given product and to call attention to th precautionary instructions which should immediately follow. The "signal words" recommended are, in the order of dimin ishing severity of hazard, (1) DANGER; (2) WARNING; (3) CAUTION. Example: WARNING! Column B--From this column should be selected the phrase (or phrases), that moat accu rately describes the principal hazard. This la placed on the same line as the "signal word." Example: WARNING! FLAMMABLE If other significant hazards are present, they should be tabulated under, the principal hazard. Column C--The appropriate statement of "precautionary measures" shonld be chosen from Column C and should follow on subsequent lines. Example: WARNING! FLAMMABLE Keep away from heat and open flame. Keep container closed. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid prolonged breathing of vapor. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with 3kin. Mipuncturing Giemiia' Anacinion oi ihe (tailed Soin GENERAL PRINCIPLES In the preparation of any precautionary label the following principles should first be con sidered : 1) Each chemical product (including mixtures) presents a distinct problem and must be treated individually, in the light of its own characteristics. 2) Extreme care should be exercised in the choice o1terminology. Statements should be brief and simple. 3) On labels'for different products, uniformity in language to indicate the same hazards is most desirable in order to gain greater understanding through standardization. 4) Precautionary statements must be accurate, selectively chosen, and expressed in clearly defined terms. To be effective they should be used only when and to the extent necessary. Labeling of a relatively harmless product so as to indicate that it is hazard ous, as well as the .failure to give adequate notice of a hazard, will develop a disregard for labels and defeat their purpose. For example, if the word "POISON" is to retain its usefulness on a label, it should be applied exclusively to those jfroducts (1) which are poisons according to a definite toxicity standard*, or (2) with which it is associated through common usage, or (3) for which its use is prescribed by law. In all other cases the relative degree of the hazard can .be better indicated by the use of signal words such-as: "DANGER" to cover extremely serious hazards; "WARNING" to cover less serious hazards; and "CAUTION" to cover minor hazards, together with a descriptive statement of the hazard. 5) Chemical names should be those recommended by the American Chemical Society. 6) The use of a non-descriptive code designation or trade name as the only identification . of a hazardous chemical should be avoided. If for any reason, it is undesirable toshow the chemical name, or if the chemical name is so complex as to be meaningless except to the trained chemist, the label should state the type of chemical, e.g., "corposive acid,", "lead compound." 7) The following subject matter should be considered for inclusion on a precautionary label: * ' . . 1. Chemical name 2. "Signal word" (DANGER-WARNING-CAUTION) designating degree of hazard (Column A, Schedule 3) 3.. Affirmative statement of "hazard" (Column B, Schedules) 4. "Precautionary measures" covering actions to be followed or avoided (Column C, Schedule 3) 6. "Instructions in cose of accident," where advisable (Column D, Schedule 3) 8) Warning labels should be printed in easily legible type, which ia in contrast by typog raphy, layout, or color with any other printed matter on the label and should be placed conspicuously on containers. Legibility may be preserved with a suitable protective coating. to Include only chemicals cnpable of causing acute effects b y ingestion and inhalation, the principal modes of entry into the body. This definition excludes chemicals capable of cousin? injuries as a result of skin absorption o r of chronic, exposure by inhalation, because the variable actions and effects of chemicals' with these characteristics preclude a practical mean of measuring th iir hazards. I I ! i Schedule 1 DEFINITIONS Manual L-l Flammable Liquid1--An inflammable1 liquid is any liquid which gives off inflammable vapora (aa determined by flash point from TagUabue's open-cup tester, as used for teat of burning oils) at or below a temperature of 80* F. Extremely Flammable Liquida--An extremely flammable liquid is a liquid which gives off flam mable vapors (as determined by flash point from Tagliabue's open-cup tester, as used for test of burning oils) at or below a temperature of 20 F. Corroaius 2--(Physiological)--A corrosive is an agent which In contact with living tissue will cause more or less severe destruction of tissue by chemical action. Irritant---(Physiological)--An irritant is an agent which in contact with living tissue will induce either immediately or after prolonged or repeated contact a more or less severe local tissue reaction not leading directly ,to destruction of tissue. Sensitizer ---(Physiological)--A sensitizer is a material which as ordinarily handled does not necessarily caus any discernible reaction in living tissue but which after initial or re peated contact with the tissue of. some individuals may, at a later date, produce a prompt', inflammatory reaction on contact, even in minute amounts, with the tissue of the same individuals. Dusts8--Solid particles generated by handling, crushing, grinding, rapid Impact, detonation and decrepitation of organic or inorganic materials Buch as rock, ore, metal,, coal, wood, grain, etc. Dusts do not tend to flocculate except under electrostatic forces; they' do not diffuse in air but settle under the influence of gravity. Fumes 3--Solid particles generated by condensation from the gaseous state, generally after volatili zation from molten metals, etc., and often accompanied by a chemical reaction such as oxidation. Fumes flocculate and sometimes coalesce. Mists *--Suspended liquid droplets generated by condensation from the gaseous to the liquid state or by breaking up a liquid into a dispersed state, such as by splashing, foaming, and atomizing. Gases 8--Normally formless fluids which occupy the space of enclosure and which can be changed to the liquid or solid state' only by the combined effect of increased pressure and decreased temperature. Gases diffuse, ^ Vapors *--The gRseoua form of substances which are normally, in the solid or liquid state and which can be changed to these states either by increasing the pressura or decreasing the the temperature alone. Vapors diffuse. Poison2--Poison means a substance which, when taken by mouth in amounts of 60 grains (4 grams) or less, or when inhaled in concentrations of less than 200 parts per million by volume in th air, rapidly (within 6 or 10 minutes) jeopardizes life by other than mechani cal or physical action. . Note: This definition of "Poison" is based on practical considerations only, as an aid in determining, generally, when the word "Poison" should Lb included on a warning label. Sea General Principles 4. Mixture 2--A physical commingling of two or more substances which may or may not bear a fixed.. proportion to one another and which have not reacted chemically with one another. . S, 1ICC dfinition. While the term `'inflammable" is used by the ICC, the preferred form "flammable" I* used in this Manual. a MCA definition. 3 As defined in Chapter II "Engineering Control of the Air Contamination of the Working Environment" (Allen D. Brandt, D.Sc.) page 198, "Manual of Indoetrial Hygiene," USFHS. 5 Manual Mr.ufai.tiin Chcmim1 Aodion of iht TJniirf Saia Column D--When it is advisable to Include instructions in case of accident, the appropriate statements may be selected from this column. Instructions in case of accident to indi viduals are valuable but should be limited to recognized first aid procedures based upon simple methods and commonly available materials. Instructions for strictly medical treat ment should be omitted except when specifically required by law. Because of the serious and lasting effects that may result from eye injuries, a recommendation to obtain medical attention should accompany any specific instruction directed to the treatment of the eyes. I f th e statem ents fro m Schedule 3 fa il to m eet th e exact needs, they should be modified to ' suit. In the example shown, toluene, no phrase from this column appears to be necessary. While every compound carries some hazard, if improperly used, it is impractical to cover every possible contingency on a label.. Efforts should be directed toward naming the serious hazards, and warning against such abuses and accidents as are likely to be encountered under normal con ditions. There Hre scarcely any means of measuring in absolute terms the relative seriousness of hazards, and the recommendations in Schedule 3 only contemplate their division into two or three degrees of. intensity. It follows that of two compounds one may be less hazardous than the other and yet may carry the same warnings and cautions. Instruction for handling and storage of containers should be included where conditions indi cate their need. These instructions should take into consideration both the characteristics of the chemical product and the limitations of the type or types of container in which it ia packed. Schedule 4 presents suggested labels for samples of experimental products for which full data regarding hazards are not yet known. Schedule 5 illustrates the application of caution statements to three specific products. In the case of toluene, the statements used are similar to those given in Schedule 2 for a compound or mixture having hazards in classifications I-B and IV. The second example, aqueous hydrofluoric acid, represents a very special case where the particular hazards require modification of the stand ard statements. The third example is that of a label for a proprietary compound or mixture. l ! i I Manu*l L-l V. Gases and Vapors Physiologically Inert.

Minuriaotmn Chtmim Aodnior of lhe United Suiti Schedule 4 LABELS FOR EXPERIMENTAL SAMPLES Manual L-l The labeling of experimental samples of new products presents unusual problems. All of the properties or possible uses of a product are seldom known. The following safeguards are therefore recommended : 1. Samples of a product already on the market should carry the same warning label as a commercial shipment. 2. The following label is suggested for samples of any material that has never been in commer cial production unless (1)- the material is known to be wholly innocuous, or (2) the dangers are limited to known hazards and appropriate cautions are submitted. SAMPLE ( ---------------------------------------- -- ) Name or Description of Product FO R EXPERIMENTAL USE ONLY CAUTION! The chemical, physical and toxicological properties of this product have not been fully investigated and its handling or use may be hazardous. Exercise due care. 3. The identity of the sample, indicated in parentheses above, should be as clear as possible. Wherever feasible, it should be the name of the compound or mixture, and in any case it should be the best possible identification to aid the user in knowing with what he is concerned.. 4. Where there are significant known hazards they should be so indicated. 5. The above label may be used in the case of old products being considered for new uses.

These products have been selected so as to provide illustrative labels for each major type of hazardous chemical which is of commercial importance. In many cases these labels are applicable to other products which are listed only in the index with appropriate cross references. These labels do not cover impurities which may be present in the products and, except in a few instances, do not include precautionary information regarding the handling and storage of the containers. The manufacturer or packer should in each case include on his label additional warn ings to cover the hazards due to impurities which may be present in harmful quantities and, where the facts so indicate, to cover container handling and storage. Suggested first aid treatment has been included for a few products only. The omission of first aid treatment for other products should not in any case be interpreted to mean that it may not be desirable. Individual statutes, regulations or ordinances may require that particular information be included on a label or that a specific label be affixed to a container as in the case of the Interstate Commerce Commission Regulations for Transportation of Explosives and Other Dangerous Articles. In each case, the requirements of these laws should also be studied. The warning labels suggested in this Manual should be used in addition to or in combination with any label required by law. These labels haveJseen prepared in accordance with the procedure outlined in Part I, M.C.A. Manual L -l "A Guide for the Preparation of Warning Labels for Hazardous Chemicals." The user should familiarize himself with Manual L-l before adapting any of the label statements con tained in Manual L-2 to his products. It is anticipated that Manual L-2 will be supplemented from time to time as additional illustrative labels are suggested or revisions are made.
