CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION STATEMENT

You may see a California Proposition 65 warning on a CABINZERO product page, label or
packaging.

If you have reached this page from a link on a product display page, we are providing the
following warning:

WARNING: This product may expose you to harmful chemicals including Di(2-
ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) and/or N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMFa) which are known to the State
of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.  For more information
go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Learn why the warning appears, what it means and where to find more information.

What is Proposition 65?

Proposition 65 (“Prop 65”), officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of
1986, is a law unique to the State of California. The law requires businesses to provide clear warnings
before exposing customers in California to chemicals ‘known to the State of California to cause cancer
and/or reproductive toxicity’. Prop 65 applies to all retail, mail order, and Internet sales of products to
customers in California.

Warning requirements depend on exposure, rather than a chemical’s presence alone. A warning is not
required where a business can demonstrate that exposure is at or below the applicable safe harbor level.

These warnings help you make informed decisions about the products you purchase and use, and
whether to limit your exposure to listed chemicals. The law also restricts the discharge of listed
chemicals into sources of drinking water.

What types of chemicals are on the Proposition 65 list?

The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) maintains a list of more
than 900 chemicals to which Prop 65 applies. The list, which is regularly reviewed and updated at least
annually, covers a broad range of naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals, including those used in
dyes, solvents, medicines, food additives, pesticides and tobacco products, as well as substances
generated as by-products of certain processes. These chemicals can be used in common manufacturing
or construction practices, or may be byproducts of chemical processes, such as motor vehicle exhaust.

Which types of products may contain chemicals listed under Proposition 65?

A wide range of everyday products may contain chemicals covered by California Proposition 65.
Depending on their materials and potential exposure, these may include items made from fabrics, vinyl,
foam or other synthetic materials, as well as glassware, ceramics, tableware, batteries and products
containing batteries. Certain personal care products, lotions and first-aid kits may also fall within this
category.

Why does my CABINZERO product carry a warning?

Our warnings provide awareness of potential exposure to listed chemicals associated with a product’s
materials or components.

Whether a warning is required depends on exposure, rather than simply whether a chemical is present.
An exposure assessment considers how the product is used, including the amount of a chemical
someone may encounter and the frequency and duration of use.

Does a warning mean the product is unsafe?

A Prop 65 warning does not necessarily mean a product is in violation of any product-safety standards or
requirements. The warning means that use of the product may expose you to one or more chemicals
listed by the OEHHA. The warning alone does not tell you the amount of exposure or establish whether
the product complies with other safety requirements.

If you have questions about a specific CABINZERO product, please contact our customer service team.

How does Proposition 65 differ from federal product safety requirements under the CPSIA?

The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) is a federal law covering product safety
requirements which allow or prohibit sale of an item. ,. Requirements vary by product category. Federal
product-safety laws impose separate requirements, which may include chemical limits, testing and
certification. Compliance with one set of requirements does not automatically establish compliance with
the other.

Prop 65 requires warnings for certain exposures to listed chemicals in California, but does not prohibit
their sale should the chemical be present. The warning is in place to allow individuals to make an
informed decision.

Which chemicals might be named in a warning?

California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) maintains the Proposition 65
chemical list, which is updated regularly. It includes naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals,
including substances used in manufacturing and chemical processing.

Depending on the product, a CABINZERO warning may identify:

Different products may carry different warnings. Refer to your item’s warning for the information that
applies to it.

What are safe harbor levels?

OEHHA establishes safe-harbor exposure levels for certain listed chemicals. These include No
Significant Risk Levels (NSRLs) for cancer and Maximum Allowable Dose Levels (MADLs) for
reproductive harm.

These levels relate to exposure, not simply the amount of a chemical in a material. Not every listed
chemical has an established safe-harbor level. Businesses must assess the relevant exposure and
determine whether a warning is required under Proposition 65.

Why might I see a warning outside California?

Products may share packaging across different markets, so a California warning can also appear on an
item purchased elsewhere. Proposition 65’s warning requirements apply to exposures occurring in
California.

What about similar products without a warning?

The absence of a warning does not establish that a product contains no listed chemicals. A product may
cause exposure below the applicable warning threshold, or a warning may only be provided for products
sold in California.

A warning label alone (or lack thereof) is therefore not a reliable way to compare the safety or chemical
content of different products.
