Business Environment & Major Developments Agriculture Strong demand for granular potash and for phosphate fertilizers. Good indications for 2014 potash demand growth. Lower quarterly potash & phosphate fertilizer sales volumes due to labor interruptions at DSW and continued impact of the Rotem strike. Engineered Materials Solid demand for clear brine fluids, continued growth in brominated biocides and Merquel. Improved demand in several flame retardants market segments. Results impacted by lower bromine prices in Europe and India. Engineered Materials & Processed Food Growth in food driven primarily by the Hagesud acquisition. Results impacted by competitive pressure in phosphate-based downstream products and temporary supply issues in P2S5. Pricing stable to slightly up. The Rotem strike continued to impact the segment results due to availability of raw materials. 5
Growth and Cost Reduction Initiatives Agriculture Doc ID England cost reduction and polysulphate opportunity A new multinutrient sulphate fertiliser from Cleveland Potash Ltd Spain consolidation and cost reduction Cost reduction at Dead Sea Works and Rotem Brazil Europe Africa Israel India China Ethiopia Capital investment and an offtake agreement in Allana Potash. Market development Develop new demand for Potash 6
A non binding MOU with AkzoNobel, a major producer of specialty chemicals and a leading global paints and coatings company The Deal ICL Iberia Signed Memorandum of Understanding With AkzoNobel Joint production and marketing of 1.5 million tons per year of high quality vacuum salt and 50,000 tons of white potash. Opportunities High value added product with broad applications. Strong synergies A viable solution to the salt by-products of potash. 7

Farmer and publicity activities in 9 states and a total of 36 districts and 720 demonstration plots per year. First results: 15-35% average increase in yields; Success stories demonstrate benefit-tocost ratios between 13:1 and 43:1. Key ICL markets suffer from significant underfertilization and unbalanced application rates. Farmer education is an essential factor in potash demand growth. ICL believes it will be a primary beneficiary of such initiatives given its strong position in these markets and the strategic location of its assets. Incremental Demand Can Result in Material Growth Approx. 250,000 tons of incremental annual ICL shipments required to grow at 5% p.a.

ICL Rejects Major Parts of the Natural Resources Committee Recommendations Incorrect calculations: ROA should increase from 11% to 22% Assets should include replacement value, working capital, intangible assets. GT higher than global average: 46-57% VS. 25-47%. 42% tax rate on OP above 11% return on depreciated assets. Royalties - flat 5% rate. Ignoring different business characteristics between potash, bromine, phosphate and magnesium. The committee ignores the negative effect on GDP, exports, employment, future Government income and foreign direct investments in Israel 18
