results achieved during the third quarter. Margins have been driven primarily by increased prices in iodine and by increased sales
volumes in the potassium, lithium, and industrial chemical business lines.&rdquo;</P>

results though, pose a new set of challenges for the next months.&nbsp; On one hand, potash price environment has been relatively
unstable in the past weeks and difficult to predict for the near future.&nbsp; On the other hand, European economy slowdown is
starting to show some effect in volumes across all our business lines. &nbsp;However, our unique commercial flexibility and operational
synergies will allow us to continue maintaining our competitive advantage and to react and benefit to changing market needs.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As expected, volumes increased significantly
during the third quarter, resulting from increased sales of solar salts, products used for alternative energy sources. Industrial
chemical demand for traditional applications such as explosives, detergents and glass, among others, has remained stable during
the third quarter and throughout the first nine months of this year. We expect trends for sales of solar salts and traditional
industrial chemicals to continue throughout the fourth quarter of 2012. Furthermore, we will likely see significant volume decreases
in solar salts during 2013, as projects are delayed. These volume decreases should be temporary, and we remain confident in the
long-term potential of the solar salt business.</P>
