Skin: Redness, itching. Eyes: Slight to important redness. Chronic exposures: No data. 4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Thermal decomposition of the product may give off toxic nitrous fumes and nitrogen oxides. The effects of nitrogen oxides inhalation may be delayed and lead to pulmonary oedema (excess fluid in the lungs). Any person who has inhaled toxic fumes must be removed, made to lie down in shade, kept warm and made to rest even though no symptoms may be evident. Seek medical help. SECTION 5: Firefighting measures Product is not combustible. One of its components, ammonium nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent that can cause combustible materials to ignite. The risk of fire depends on surrounding combustible materials (such as fuel, wood, paper, oil). 5.1. Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media: Water. Unsuitable extinguishing media: Chemical extinguishers (dry or foam), steam, carbon dioxide. Do not use any kind of smothering agents (possibility of ammonium nitrate self-confinement). 5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture May produce toxic fumes and gases containing ammonia and oxides of nitrogen. Hot material may cause thermal and chemical burns to the skin. When heated strongly under confined conditions ammonium nitrate based fertilizers can decompose violently causing an explosion. 5.3. Advice for firefighters Fire fighting: Fight the fire from protected locations or the maximum effective distance. Approach it from upwind side to avoid any possible toxic fumes that may result from decomposition of the material. Prevent as much as possible the run-off from the extinguishing water from entering municipal drains, so as to minimize environmental impact. Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear EN 137 Type 2 Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with EN 136 full face mask. Properties of protective clothing to wear in case of fire are defined in EN 469. SECTION 6: Accidental release measures 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Use personal protection equipment where excessive levels of dust are present (see subsection 8.2). Accumulated deposits of contaminated dust (particularly with organic materials) can present decomposition and fire hazards. 6.2. Environmental precautions SO32 / 7 Contain spillage from direct entering to the environment or drains. Inform appropriate authority (see subsection 1.4.) in case of accidental contamination of watercourses, soil or air.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up 6.3.1. For containment Collect immediately or isolate and cover with PE foil to protect spilled product and dust from spreading. 6.3.2. For cleaning up Large spill: Wet the spillage and collect by mechanical means. Put collected material into clean container. Keep container closed. Avoid generation of dust. Do not wash into water-courses or drains. Re-use or dispose according to national regulations. Clean spillages from conveyers, elevators and split bags can be collected and reworked. Small spill: Collect and put into clean container. Clean up affected area and wash down with water. 6.4. Reference to other sections For protective equipment see Section 8. For waste tretament see Section 13. SECTION 7: Handling and storage 7.1. Precautions for safe handling Avoid heating of the product. Prevent heating under confinement. Forbid smoking, open fires, electrical heaters with exposed radiant coils/filaments and naked flames (except when authorised for maintenance). Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid dust formation. Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid damaging the bags during handling. Damaged bags in storage should be removed from the stack in order to secure stack stability and prevent further spillage. The use of explosives to break up fertilizer, or adjacent heaps, that have caked in storage must be EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN. Caked product can be broken up by mechanical means. 7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Technical measures and storage conditions Store in well ventilated, preferably covered storage area or storage building with exhaust ventilation. Keep away from incompatible materials, heat, moisture and direct sunlight. The recommended storage temperature is below 30 ºC to maintain product quality. Clean the storage area before putting fertilizers into the storage and when switching from one product to another. Hollow shafts and sections should be avoided on equipment in service with fertilizers wherever possible. Vehicles, fork-lift trucks and mechanical shovels should not be allowed access to any store unless free from oil and fuel leaks and should be carefully maintained to that end. Store mechanical shovels or other mobile handling equipment outside the storage building or in such a position that fertilizer in the heaps or spilled onto the floor cannot be affected by a fire involving the vehicle. SO32 / 7 Materials, which are thermally stable and known to be non-reactive with ammonium nitrate (e.g. diammonium phosphate - DAP, sodium nitrate and limestone) may be stored in the same storage area as the fertilizer. If urea is stored in the same building as ammonium nitrate based fertilizers, arrange the storage so that they cannot contaminate or affect each other in the event of a fire. Do not store fertilizers in the vicinity of explosives. Izradio / Prepared by Pregledao / Reviewed by Odobrio / Approved by Broj / No. 01-04-1-5-5-007/02 D. Budić/Z. Bakarić Z. Bakarić Z. Bakarić Izmj./ Rev. 4 SAFETY DATA SHEET Sheet: 5/14 Date: 08.05.2015 Revision No. 4. NPK and NP ammonium nitrate based fertilisers According to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Ensure no stack or hip is closer than one metre to the roof support beam or light fittings. The stack should be constructed so that each stack has one passageway wide enough to provide vehicular access to facilitate dismantling in the event of an emergency. Stores should be adequately equipped with fire-fighting equipment which should include: a fire water supply via a typical water hydrant from a piped supply or a reservoir, a standard water supply capable of reaching all parts of the storage area, or an adequate supply of water extinguishers for fighting initial outbreaks of fire, chemical extinguishers for fires on equipment where fertilizers are not directly involved. Storage in bulk: Store bulk product in closed, dry and ventilated storing premises, with storage floor and heap covered with PE or PP/PE foil. When storing different fertilizer products and non-fertilizer materials in the same building they should be well separated to prevent cross-contamination and proper consideration should be given to their compatibility including in the case of a fire. Urea should not be stored in the same building as ammonium nitrate based fertilizers. If this is unavoidable, conditions should be such that neither fertilizer can affect the other in any circumstances, in particular in the case of a fire. Outside storage (when the storage area is not protected by walls and a roof): It is generally recommended that ammonium nitrate based fertilizers should not be stored in bulk outdoors. Outside storage is generally suitable for packaged products. Bulk fertilizers should only be stored outside in closed bins, hoppers or silos. Outside storage area should be protected from access by unauthorised persons. „Entry only for Authorised Persons” notices should be displayed. The product should be protected from direct sunlight e.g. by white plastic sheeting. This can best be achieved by resting the sheet on a single layer of pallets above the stack. The layer of pallets provides a thermal insulating effect. Store the first layer of packages on pallets to prevent damage from ground projections and to minimise water ingress from surface water. Packaging materials: polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene/polyethylene (PP/PE) bags. Stacking recommendations: • bags with unit weights of up to 50 kg: vertical stack up to 2m, • loaded pallets stacking: 2 pallets in a vertical stack max., • big-bags with unit weights of up to 500 kg: 3 bags in a vertical stack max., • big-bags with unit weights of up to 1000 kg: 2 bags in a vertical stack max. The maximum height of the stack should take into account stack stability, bag strength and safe handling when loading and unloading. Limit the size of stacks in accordance with national regulations, if any. 7.3. Specific end use(s) None. SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1. Control parameters SO32 / 7 8.1.1.

Posibility of hazardous reactions Posibility of explosion when heated in confinement. In contact with strong bases, gaseous ammonia and nitrogen oxides can occure. 10.4. Conditions to avoid Avoid heating and contact with incompatible materials. 10.5. Incompatible materials Strong acids and bases, chlorates, chlorides, chromates, nitrates, permanganates, metal powder of copper, nickel, zinc and their alloys. Compatibility with various fertiliser materials Urea: Incompatible. Mixture will quickly become wet and absorb moisture resulting in the formation of liquid or slurry. There could be safety implications. Acidulated rock phosphate, Single/triple super phosphate: Limited compatibility. If free acid is present it could cause a very slow decomposition of ammonium nitrate, affecting, for example, the packaging. Ammonium nitrate, Calcium ammonium nitrate, Ammonium sulphate nitrate, Ammonium sulphate, Potassium chloride: Limited compatibility. Consider the possibility of self-sustaining decomposition and the overall level of oil coating. 10.6.
