Exposure to high dust levels may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, throat, or upper respiratory tract. ACUTE: Eyes:Airborne dust or direct contact can cause mechanical irritation of eyes. If burning, redness, itching, pain or other symptoms persist or develop, consult physician. Skin: No toxic effects from powdered gypsum are noticed where air contains contaminate to excess. This material exhibits some affinity for moisture, and frequent exposures may have a drying effect on the skin. Possible itching and irritation may be experienced. This may lead to dermatitis. No penetration of intact skin. Inhalation: Inhalation of dust can irritate the nose,throat, and the upper respiratory tract. Persons subjected to large amounts of this dust will be forced to leave area because of nuisance conditions such as coughing, sneezing and nasal irritation. Labored breathing may occur after excessive inhalation. If respiratory symptoms persist, consult physician. Ingestion: Unlikely to occur, but may cause gastric disturbances if swallowed. Gypsum is non-toxic; however, ingestion of a sufficient quantity could lead to mechanical obstruction of the gut, especially the pyloric region. See First Aid Measures-Ingestion (Section 4). CHRONIC: Inhalation: The concentration of respirable crystalline silica measured in bulk samples of TBF,gypsum was less than 0.1 Wt.%. Industrial hygiene testing,following the NIOSH Method 7500, did not detect respirable crystalline silica in dust created during the cutting of TBF gypsum wallboard panels by both the recommended score and snap technique and with the use of a power saw in a 10ft by 1 Oft room. Gypsum wallboard panels do not release respirable dust in their installed state and therefore do not present any known health hazards when installed and properly maintained. Prolonged and repeated exposure to airborne free respirable crystalline silica can result in lung disease(i.e., silicosis) and/or lung cancer. The development of silicosis may increase the risks of additional health effects. The risk of developing silicosis is dependent upon the exposure intensity and duration. Exposures to respirable crystalline silica are not expected during the normal use of this product; however, actual levels must be determined by workplace hygiene testing. Eyes: None known. Skin: Prolonged and repeated exposure may dry skin and possibly lead to dermatitis. Ingestion: No known effects. TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, skin and respiratory system. PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY: Inhalation, eyes and skin contact. SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES FIRST AID PROCEDURES Eyes: Flush thoroughly with water for 15 minutes to remove particles. If irritation persists, consult physician. Skin: Wash with mild soap and water. A commercially available hand lotion may be used to treat dry skin areas. If skin has become cracked, take appropriate action to prevent infection and promote healing. If irritation persists, consult 1 physician. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Leave the area of dust exposure and remain away until coughing and other symptoms subside. Other measures are usually not necessary, however if conditions warrant, contact physician. Ingestion: No harmful effects expected. No specific recommendations. Calcium sulfate is nontoxic; however, ingestion of a sufficient quantity could lead to mechanical obstruction of the gut, especially the pyloric region. If gastric disturbance occurs, call physician. Drinking gelatin solutions or large volumes of water may delay setting. MEDICAL CONDITIONS WHICH MAY BE AGGRAVATED: Pre-existing upper respiratory and lung diseases such as, but not limited to, bronchitis, emphysema and asthma. Pre-existing skin diseases such as, but not limited to, rashes and dermatitis. j BA;1NfE,\JT MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET � Fhmshingr_ Fibrous Cera en# Board SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES General Fire Hazards: Not expected to burn. Extinguishing Media: Water or use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment(See section 8). Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: None Hazardous Combustion Products: Above 1450°C -decomposes to calcium oxide(CaO)and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Organic material in the panels can produce oxides of carbon. Flash Point: None Known Auto Ignition: Not Applicable Method Used: Not Applicable Flammability Limited combustible Upper Flammable Limit(UFL): Not Applicable Classification: Lower Flammable Limit(LFL): Not Applicable Rate of Burning: Not Applicable SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES CONTAINMENT: No special precautions. Wear appropriate personal protection (See Section 8). Collect the material from spillage and if not damaged or containated by foreign material, gypsum panels may be reclaimed. Contain the spill by keeping it dry and away from incompatibles(See Section 10). CLEAN-UP: Use normal clean up procedures. Wear appropriate protective equipment. If dry, shovel or sweep up material from spillage and place collected material into a container for recovery or waste disposal. Avoid dust generation. Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with eyes and skin. Maintain proper ventilation. If vacuum is used to collect dust, use an industrial vacuum cleaner with a high efficiency air filter. If sweeping is necessary, use dust suppressant. Do not use compressed air for clean up. These procedures will help minimize potential exposures. If washed down, may plug drains. DISPOSAL: Follow all local, state, provincial and federal regulations. Never discharge large releases directly into sewers or surface waters. Trace amounts of residue can be flushed to a drain, using plenty of water. SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING: Avoid dust contact with eyes. Wear the appropriate eye protection against dust(See Section 8). Avoid breathing dust. Wear the appropriate respiratory protection against dust in poorly ventilated areas and if TLV is exceeded (see Sections 2 and 8). Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Use good safety and industrial hygiene practices. When moving board with a forklift or similar equipment, it is essential that the equipment be rated capable of handling the loads. The forks should always be long enough to extend completely through the width of the load. Fork spacing between supports should be one half the length of the panels or base being handled so that a maximum of 4' extends beyond the supports on either end. Follow traditional building practices; such as management of water away form the interior of the structure to avoid the growth of mold, mildew and fungus. Remove any building products suspected of being exposed to sustained moisture and considered conducive to mold growth from the jobsite. Gypsum panels are very heavy awkward loads posing the risk of severe back injury. Use proper lifting techniques. �N .z Tbtl BASi ; MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET FirLishi'ng— Fibrous Gement Board �/nXL�v[.°PlXPlJI t0 BPlL�f1�L�l SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE (continued) STORAGE: Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from sources of heat, moisture and incompatibilities (see Section 10). Protect product from physical damage. Protect from weather and prevent exposure to sustained moisture. Gypsum Association literature recommends storing board flat to avoid damaging edges, warping the board and the potential safety hazards of the board falling over. However, in other situations, storing the board flat may cause a tripping hazard or exceed floor limit loads. If stacking board vertically, leave at least 4 inches from the wall to decrease the risk of falling board and no more than 6 inches to avoid too much lateral weight against the wall. SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION. ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne dust levels. If user operations generate airborne dust, use ventilation to keep dust concentrations below permissible exposure limits (See Section 2). Where general ventilation is inadequate, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control dust levels below permissible exposure limits(see Section 2). RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Wear a NIOSH/MSHA-approved respirator equipped with particulate cartridges when dusty in poorly ventilated areas, and if TLV is exceeded. A respiratory program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. OTHER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Eye/Face:Wear eye protection(safety glasses or goggles)to avoid particulate irritation of the eye. Skin: Gloves or protective clothing are usually not necessary but may be desirable in specific work situations. For brief contact, no precautions other than clean body-covering clothing should be needed. Wear gloves[chemical gloves are not necessary, there is no chemical irritation hazard]and protective clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact. Barrier creams or skin lotion may be applied to face, neck,wrist and hands when skin is exposed to help prevent drying of skin. General: Selection of Personal Protective Equipment will depend on environmental working conditions and operations.

SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION ACUTE EFFECTS: Gypsum paste applied experimentally to the eyes of rabbits was not an irritant. Gypsum dust particulate has shown an irritant action on mucous membranes of the respiratory tract and eyes. There have been anecdotal reports of conjunctivitis, chronic rhinitis, laryngitis, pharyngitis, impaired sense of smell and taste, bleeding from the nose, and reactions of tracheal and bronchial membranes in exposed workers. The sulfate ion has caused gastro-intestinal disturbance in humans following large oral doses. Limited studies involving the repeated inhalation of an (unspecified)calcium sulfate failed to identify any particular target organs in monkeys, rats and hamsters. No evidence of mutagenicity was found in Ames bacterial tests. LD50: Not Available for product. LC50: Not Available for product. CHRONIC EFFECTS/CARCINOGENICITY: Crystalline silica: The concentration of respirable crystalline silica measured in bulk samples of TBF gypsum was less than 0.1 Wt.%. Industrial hygiene testing, following the NIOSH Method 7500, did not detect respirable crystalline silica in dust created during the cutting of TBF gypsum wallboard panels by both the recommended score and snap technique and with the use of a power saw in a 1 Oft by 1 Oft room. Gypsum wallboard panels do not release respirable dust in their installed state and therefore do not present any known health hazards when installed and properly maintained. Prolonged and repeated exposure to airborne free respirable crystalline silica can result in lung disease(i.e., silicosis) and/or lung cancer. The development of silicosis may increase the risks of additional health effects. The risk of developing silicosis is dependent upon the exposure intensity and duration. Exposures to respirable crystalline silica are not expected during the normal use of this product; however, actual levels must be determined by workplace hygiene testing. In June, 1997, IARC classified crystalline silica (quartz and cristobalite) as a human carcinogen. In making the overall evaluation, the IARC Working Group noted that carcinogenicity in humans was not detected in all industrial circumstances studied. Carcinogenicity may be dependent on inherent characteristics of the crystalline silica or on external factors affecting its biological activity or distribution of its polymorphs. IARC states that crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans(Group 1).

INTRODUCTION On October 30 and 31, 2007 NGC Testing Services5m conducted vertical transverse load tests for Basement Svstems, Incorporated of Seymour,CT. Demountable, prefabricated wall panels nominally 4 feet wide by 8 feet high were tested in accordance to ASTM E 72-05 Standard Test Method of Conducting Strength Tests of Panels for Building Construction. Construction of all framing and panel assemblies was performed by Basement Systems, Inc. and shipped to NGC Testing Servicessm. Testing was performed on four different wall panel assemblies. Three samples of each test specimen were tested. The testing was comparing of different types of wall panel construction materials. The four standard panel types were: 25-gauge steel studs,2 in. x 3 in,wood studs, single insulated panel and double insulated panel. Construction of all framing was performed by Basement Systems Inc, and sent to NGC Testing Servicessm. The panels were tested as received. Testing was conducted by Steven Armenia,Test Technician, and Gerard Van Wie,Test Technician,both of NGC Testing Servicessm. Present and witnessed from Basement Systems, Inc.were Mark Domogala and Robert Card. 2. TEST APPARATUS The test apparatus utilized met the criteria outlined in test standard ASTM E 72-05 for vertical transverse strength testing of panels utilizing a uniform load with the air chamber method. The test chamber can accommodate samples up to 4 feet wide and up to 16 feet long. Air was exhausted from the chamber with a 6.5 HP vacuum and pressure readings were measured utilizing a differential pressure transmitter with a digital meter. Lateral deflections were recorded at the test sample center lines via a digital indicator.

DESCRIPTION OF WALL ASSEMBLIES ❖ Three test specimens consisted of 2-1/2 in. 25-gauge steel "C" studs spaced 24 in. o.c. The studs were attached to 2-1/2 in. 25-gauge steel"C" track, using 1/2 in. pan head screws. A single layer of i/2 in. gypsum wallboard was directly applied to the steel studs using 1-1/4 in.type"S" screws. The screw spacing was 12 in. o.c. around the perimeter and 16 in. o.c. in the field. The samples were nominally 48 in. wide x 96 in. high x 3 in. thick. Average specimen weight was found to be 63.5 lbs. ❖ Three test specimens consisted of nominal 2 in. x 3 in. SPF wood studs spaced 24 in- o.c. The studs were screwed to wooden top and bottom plates using 2-1/4 in type"W" screws. There was no cross-bracing used. A single layer of 1/2 in. gypsum wallboard was directly applied to the wood framing members using 1-1/4 in. type"W" screws. The screw spacing was 12 in. o.c. around the perimeter and 16 in. o.c. in the field. The samples were nominally 48 in. wide x 96 in. high x 3 in. thick. Average specimen weight was found to be 77.5 lbs. 4- Three test specimens consisted of a single layer of fibrous cement board covering a layer of N in.blue foam panel on each side. The cement boards were attached to the foam with adhesive. There was a vinyl covering over the cement boards. The samples were nominally 48 in.wide x 96 in. high x 3 in.thick. Each piece of fiber cement board was nominally%in. thick and the blue foam board was V2inthick. Average specimen weight was found to be 191.5 lbs. Client indicated assemblies to be described as Everlast Partition Wall.Panel. ❖ Three test specimens consisted of a single layer of fibrous cement board covering a layer of blue foam panel. The cement boards were attached to the foam with adhesive. There was a vinyl covering over the cement boards. The fiber cement board was nominally 1/2 in. thick and the blue foam panel was 2-1/2 in.thick. The samples were nominally 48 in. wide x%in. high x 3 in. thick. Average specimen weight was found to be 96.0 tbs. Client indicated assemblies to be described as Everlast Basement Wall.Panel. 4% All wall panels had a continuous sheet of 4 mil polyethylene installed covering the test frame and the assemblies. The purpose of the polyethylene sheet is to prevent air leakage from the test frame during testing. ❖ A dial indicator was placed at wall vertical and horizontal center points to measure the lateral deflection of the specimen. The indicator was detached from the test frame. 4- The single layer Everlast Basement Wall Panel was braced at the mid-point perimeter, using system supplied bracing. Client described the bracing to be Panel Biscuit with Arm. The bracing was inserted between the cement board and the foam panel and rested against test frame back wall. A second dial indicator was placed at the vertical centerline and the horizontal mid-point between the center bracing and bottom roller.

TEST PROCEDURE Testing was conducted in general accordance to ASTM E 72, Section 12, transverse Load- Specimen Vertical, Chamber Method. The test criterion is an L/120 deflection limitation at a live load of 5 PSF. The first test assembly was stood in test frame as described in Section 3 of this report. A continuous sheet of 4 mil Polyethylene was placed over the entire assembly and seal to test frame to aid in creating an airtight chamber and to ensure uniform application of test loads. A Digital indicator was placed at the vertical and horizontal centerline of the specimen to measure the lateral deflection under live load and the set after the release of the load. All indicators were then zeroed. A small pre-load of 0.25 in. of water was applied to the assembly, and then the load was released, allowing the assembly to rest until all set deflections stabilized. The indicators were again zeroed and the test commenced. Loads were applied at 2.5 PSF(0.48 in. water)increments up to 10 PSF. Each load increment was held for 5 minutes and then released for 5 minutes. Deflection readings were recorded at ?he beginning and end of both the 5 minute load period and the 5 minute load release period. `'after the 10 PSF load and release increment, the load was increased till deflectional failure was reached, unless failure occurred prior to 10 PSF. All indicators were then removed. The final sample of each of the 4 different assemblies was then taken to ultimate structural failure. Failure pressure was then recorded and noted. A total of three tests were conducted according to the above mentioned procedure. 5. TEST RESULTS Test Criterion: L/120 deflection limit at 5 PSF live. Where L=distance between sample contact points, in this case L= 90 in. for the steel stud,wood stud and Everlast Partition Panel assemblies. Everlast Basement Wall panel had a brace at panel mid point, so the greatest distance between contact points was decreased to 45 in., therefore L=45 in.

Manufacturer: Basement Systems,Inc 60 Silvermine Drive-Seymour,CT 06483 Phone: 800-541-0487-Local:203-881-5090 8:OOam-5:00pm Eastern Time www.basementsystems.com Section H -Component Data Component CAS# % Fibrous Glass 65997-17-3 83-97 Urea extended phenol- 25104-55-6 3-17 formaldehyde resin Formaldehyde 1 50-00-0 <0.1 Carbon Black(Black 1333-864 0-2 Product only) Non-Woven Facin Not Available <1.0 Section III—Hazards Identification Appearance and Odor: Amber/Yellow,or black fibrous glass blanket.Slight Formaldehyde odor. Under normal conditions of use,this product is not expected to create any unusual emergency hazards. Inhalation of excessive amounts of dust from the product may cause temporary upper respiratory irritation and/or congestion-- Remove affected individuals to fresh air. Skin irritation may be treated by gently washing affected area with soap and warns water. Eye irritation may be treated by flushing eyes with large amounts of water.If irritation persists,contact a medical professional. In the event of fire,use normal fire fighting procedures to prevent inhalation of smoke and gases. Potential Health Effects Summary Breathing dust from this product may cause a scratchy throat,congestion,and slight coughing.Getting dust or fibers on the skin,or in the eyes may cause itching,rash,or redness.Additional health and safety information is provided in Section XI of this material safety data sheet. Other irritating vapors such as formaldehyde from the Urea phenol-formaldehyde resin system may also be released in very small amounts. Emergency Overview: The International Agency for Research on Cancer(IARC)has classified fiber glass wool as a 1 . possible cancer causing agent to humans(Group 2B)when inhaled in the lungs. This classification was substantially based on experiments where liber glass wool was injected or implanted in animals. However,large-scale human mortality studies of U.S.and European fiber glass wool factory workers did not provide conclusive evidence that fiber glass wool caused cancer in humans. Even though the present epidemiological data is not conclusive,OSHA's interpretation of it requires that a warning be placed on this product. This warning identifies a possible hazard while not identifying the degree of risk. OSHA believes the risk is not a threat to your health as long as the exposure to fiber glass wool is less that 1 fiber/cubic centimeter TWA(8 hour weighted time average). Fiber Glass wool exposure in the home,commercial buildings,and manufacturing facilities are generally found to be less that 1 fiber/cc. Installers and fabricators should be aware of their exposure levels and take appropriate actions if needed per recommended work practices. Basement Systems,Inc. STRONGLY recommends following all safe work practices while installing fiber glass wool products. Most of Basement Systems,Inc. products have facings applied to both outer surfaces,and compressed perimeters which minimize any installer exposure to fiber glass wool. HMIS Rating: Health: I Fire:0 Reactivity: 0 Protection: E Primary Routes of Entry: Via respirable fibers to the lungs and respiratory system and airborne fibers to the skin and eyes. Primary Target Organs: Lungs,respiratory system,skin and eyes. Potential Health Effects: Acute: Mechanical irritation of the skin,eyes and upper respiratory system. Chronic: A 1987 epidemiological study of more that sixteen tbousand U.S.man-made vitreous fiber manufacturing workers has shown no statistically significant increased risks of malignant or non malignant diseases. A 1990 update of this study reported a small statistically significant increase in respiratory cancer among workers when compared with the populations in their communities. Confounding factors such as smoking,exposure to other hazardous materials,etc.,are thought to be responsible for this small apparent increase. An expanded study is currently underway to investigate other possible contributing factors. Skin Contact: There are confirmed reports of contact dermatitis. Eye Contact: A mechanical irritant,which can cause moderate to severe eye irritation. Ingestion: Nan-hazardous when ingested. Potentially,a mild irritant to the GI tract if excessive quantity is ingested. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Pre-existing chronic upper respiratory and lung diseases such as,but not limited to,bronchitis,emphysema,and asthma. Skin diseases such as dermatitis. Carcinogenicity: This product contains respirable glass wool fibers,which are classified by IARC as group 2B(possibly carcinogenic to humans)and by NTP as group IIB(reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen). Fiber glass wool has not been classified by OSHA. Section N-First Aid Measures First Aid:Inhalation Remove to fresh air.Drink water to clear throat,and blow nose to remove dust. First Aid:Skin Wash gently with soap and warm water to remove dust.Wash hands before eating or using the restroom. First Aid:Ingestion Product should not be ingested or eaten,if this product is ingested,irritation of the gastrointestinal(GI)tract may occur,and should be treated symptomatically.Rinse mouth with water to remove fibers,and drink plenty of water to help reduce the 2 Irritation.No chronic effects are expected following ingestion.

Personal Protective Equipment:Skin Barrier creams may help reduce skin contact and irritation caused by fiberglass. Personal Protective Equipment:Respiratory A respirator should be used if ventilation is unavailable,or is inadequate for keeping dust and fiber levels below the applicable exposure limits.In those cases,use a NIOSH-certified disposable or reusable particulate respirator with efficiency rating of N95 or higher(under 42 CFR 84)when working with this product.For exposures up to five times the established exposure limits use a quarter-mask respirator,rated N95 or higher;and for exposures up to ten times the established exposure limits use a half-mask respirator(e.g.,MSA's DM-I 1,Racal's Delta N95,3M's 8210),rated N95 or higher. Operations such as sawing,blowing,tear out,and spraying may generate airborne fiber concentrations requiring a higher level of respiratory protection.For exposures up to 50 times the established exposure limits use a full-face respirator,rated N99 or higher. Ventilation In fixed manufacturing settings,local exhaust ventilation should be provided at areas of cutting to remove airborne dust and fibers.General dilution ventilation should be provided as necessary to keep airborne dust and fibers below the applicable exposure limits and guidelines.The need for ventilation systems should be evaluated by a professional industrial hygienist, while the design of specific ventilation systems should be conducted by a professional engineer. Personal Protective Equipment:General Loose-fitting;long-sleeved clothing should be worn to protect skin from irritation.Exposed skin areas should be washed with soap and warm water after handling or working with fiber glass.Clothing should be washed separately from other clothes,and the washer should be rinsed thoroughly(run empty for a complete wash cycle).This will reduce the chances of fiberglass being transferred to other clothing, Section IX-Physical&Chemical Properties Appearance:Yellow/Amber or Black fibrous glass board Odor:Phenol/Formaldehyde odor Physical State:Solid pH:Not applicable Vapor Pressure:Not applicable Vapor Density:Not applicable Boiling Point:Not applicable Melting Point:>87°C/1600°F Solubility(H2O):Variable Specific Gravity:Variable Freezing Point:Not applicable Evaporation Rate:Not applicable Percent Volatile:Variable VOC:Not applicable Section X-Chemical Stability&Reactivity Information Chemical Stability This is a stable material.

Exposure to formaldehyde gas has been associated with the development of nasal tumors in laboratory animals. Formaldehyde has been classified as a probable human carcinogen,Group 2A,by the International Agency for Research on Cancer(IARC),and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA),and National Toxicology Program(NTP) considered formaldehyde to have carcinogenic potential.OSHA specifically regulates formaldehyde under 29 CFR 1910.1048. Fiber Glass Wool:In October 2001,IARC classified fiber glass wool as Group 3,"not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans."The 2001 decision was based on current human and animal research that shows no association between inhalation exposure to dust from fiber glass wool and the development of respiratory disease.This is a reversal of the IARC finding in 1987 of a Group 2B designation(possibly carcinogenic to humans)based on earlier studies in which animals were injected with large quantities of fiber glass.NTP and ACGIH have not yet reviewed the IARC reclassification or the most current fiber glass health research;at this time,both agencies continue to classify glass wool based on the earlier animal injection studies.
