Key Drivers of the Fertilizer Business
Despite decreasing availability of arable farmland, global production of soft commodities has to increase:
steadily increasing world populationchanging diets toward higher meat consumption (e.g. 1 kg beef = 8 kg animal feed) increasing importance of renewable raw materials for the production of bio energy
As a consequence, fertilizing with key nutrients nitrogen (N), phosphate (P)and potash (K), but also increasingly magnesium (Mg) and sulphur
(S)is the solution to coping with this challenge
Nutrients cannot be substituted and a balanced fertilization of all nutrients is necessary to achieve optimal yields. Emerging countries, in particular, should still significantly increase the potash proportion of their total fertilizer application
Medium- and long-term increase in global fertilizer consumption (N, P and K)of 2 to 3% p.a. expected

Over the past thirty years, annual global production of cereals has often fallen short of demand
Despite reasonable harvest levels during the last ten years, these structural supply anddemand gaps have resulted in low stocks-to-use ratios on a historical basis
Although ideal weather conditions in 2008 and 2009 resulted in record harvests worldwide, stocks-to-use ratios remained on a relatively low level

COMPO is a leading provider in a market that requires consolidation
In compliance with our growth strategy, we will focus our financial and management resources in particular on the Potash and Magnesium Products and Salt business segments
On the other hand, appropriate capacity to act is important for COMPO, especially atpresent
Therefore, we announced in June 2010 that we are considering the sale of COMPO.A result of the process is expected within one year
K+S is Considering the Sale of COMPONitrogen Fertilizers

Concept worked out for a possible corporate and business carve-out of COMPO from the K+S Group
All COMPO interfaces within the K+S Group identified
Concept worked out to separate the sales platforms in Asia, Europe andNorth/Central/South America
Preparing global IT separation
Creation of a Financial Factbook
Potential interested parties to be spoken to at end of 2010 / beginning of 2011
A result of the process is expected by mid-2011

yet
As of 2011, long-term growth ratesagain expected at 3% to 5% p.a.
Utilisation levels are estimated to be about 85% annually until 2014 and will thus reach a good level
Risk: announced new capacitycould be delayed, postponed orcancelled due to an inadequateprice level and technological/ geological challenges

Located in the Heart of Saskatchewan’s Potash-Rich Basin
Regina
Two additional potash permit areas in the Esterhazy potash region
Potash One is a Vancouver-basedresource company engaged in the exploration and development of advanced potash properties.
Potash One holds several potashexploration licences in the Canadianprovince of Saskatchewan, includingthe Legacy Project – an advanced Greenfield project to develop a potash solution mine.
K+S estimates production capacity of up to 2.7 million tonnes of potassium chloride per year.
The realisation of this production capacity would represent an approximately USD 2.5 billion capital investment into Saskatchewan and create up to 300 highly-skilled jobs.
Initial production no earlier than 2015.

● K+S evaluates the reactivation of former potash sites such as Rossleben
or
Siegfried-Giesen, the latter being a K+S reserve capacity since 1987
Overall target: To replace Sigmundshall, which will be depleted by 2018
● We are in contact with GVV, the owner of the Rossleben
potash mine
and consider a feasibility study on Siegfried-Giesen
for 2011
