Description of substance/preparation and company Substance/preparation: Description/trade name: MOLAC TM (Swabbing Compound) Product code: Producer/supplier: Name: ELNA International Address: 5 North Stiles Street, USA Telephone No.: (908) FAX No.: (908) Contact: Mr. Chris Fensham Emergency No.: (908) Composition/components Chemical characterization: Petroleum based lubricant Dangerous components: None. Components with recognized workplace exposure limitations: Petroleum based lubricating oil, CAS No Asphalt, CAS No Graphite, CAS No , EC No Non-Hazardous Components: Proprietary. Additional comments: None. 3. Possible dangers Description of dangers: Not classified as a dangerous preparation. Special comments for human being and environment: - Product contacting the eye may cause mild irritation. - Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may lead to drying of the skin, possibly leading to irritation and dermatitis. - Possible aspiration hazard. 4. First-Aid General: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. If effects persist, obtain medical advice. Skin contact: Wash with soap and water. Eye contact: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes or until

2 Page 2 of 6 irritation subsides. If irritation persists, call a physician. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention. Comments for physician: None. 5. Measures of fire fighting Appropriate extinguishing means: Foam, Water Spray (Fog), Dry Chemical, CO 2. Unsuitable means: Not applicable. Conditions to avoid: Keep product away from ignition sources, such as heat, sparks, and open flames. Empty containers retain product residue and can be dangerous. Do not weld, solder, drill, grind or expose empty containers to heat, flame or other sources of ignition. Special protection equipment: Use supplied air breathing equipment for enclosed or confined spaces. Additional information: Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool. 6. Measures on unintentional release Personnel measures: - Avoid contact with skin and eyes, do not breathe in vapors/aerosols/products of decomposition. Environmental measures: - Keep product out of ground water, watercourses or sewage plants. - Advise authorities, if the product contacts ground water, watercourses or contaminates the ground. Procedure for clean-up/removal: - Apply appropriate absorbent substance (e.g. Sand or sawdust); dispose of contaminated absorbent substance appropriately; wash affected surfaces thoroughly. Additional comments: None. 7. Handling and storage Safe handling procedure: - As a general rule, careful handling practice should be observed. - Ensure adequate ventilation in the event of vapor/aerosols/decomposition products forming. Fire/explosion protection: (See Section 5) Storage: - Store in durable containers at a cool temperature, away from heat and extreme cold, as well as materials presenting fire hazard; keep containers tightly sealed when not in use.

Exposure limitation and individual protective equipment Constituents with recognized workplace exposure limitations: Name CAS No. Limit* Petroleum based lubricating oil mg/m3 (ACGIH/OSHA TWA)* Asphalt mg/m3 (ACGIH/OSHA TWA)* (as oil mist fumes) Graphite mg/m3 (ACGIH TWA)* *Note: ACGIH = American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (USA) OSHA = Occupational Safety and Health Administration (USA) TWA = 8 hour time weighted average Individual protective equipment: Respiratory protection: Ensure proper ventilation. Avoid breathing vapor, mist or fumes of decomposition products. Use approved respiratory protection when recognized exposure limitations are exceeded. Hand protection: Chemical resistant gloves, if necessary. Eye protection: Full-vision goggles or face mask if eye contact may occur. Body protection: Chemical resistant apron or other impervious protective clothing, if needed. Protective and hygiene measures: - Avoid contact with skin and eyes; avoid excessive inhalation of vapor/aerosols/decomposition products. - Remove soiled shoes and clothing. - Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water after contact with skin, before breaks and before leaving work. - Apply protective skin cream as a precautionary measure, if necessary. 9.

Stability and reactivity Situations to avoid: - Keep away from heat and fire-hazardous materials. - This product is stable and will not react violently with water. Hazardous polymerization will not occur. Avoid contact with strong oxidants such as liquid chlorine. Decomposition products: - Precise decomposition product analysis is unknown. Proper ventilation will reduce the smoke and fumes that could possible include carbon monoxide, oxides of sulfur, and various polyaromatic hydrocarbons which may result from the incomplete combustion of all petroleum hydrocarbon products. Further details: - Ensure proper ventilation. 11.
