| Calculation of Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands) 23 Non-GAAP Reconciliation Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net income adjusted for the add back of interest expense (including derivatives), income tax expense, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, and asset retirement obligation accretion. Management believes adjusted EBITDA assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. We use adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the potash mining industry, and many investors use the published research of industry research analysts in making investment decisions. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities and may vary among companies, the adjusted EBITDA amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. 2012 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 $11,846 $3,602 $11,659 $18,178 $28,279 $30,708 $25,507 $24,917 $20,626 7,661 2,490 8,187 11,420 18,851 20,068 16,547 10,384 12,613 6,539 6,687 6,60 7629 8,533 8,691 8819 9744 11,256 Total adjustments 14,755 9,655 15,477 19,100 27,497 29,148 25,541 20,320 24,122 $26,601 $13,257 $27,136 $37,278 $55,776 $59,856 $51,048 $45,237 $44,748 253 Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization 113 555 478 430 2010 Add: Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion Adjusted Earnings Before Income Taxes, Interest 175 2011 Net Income Add: Income tax expense Add: Interest Expense, including realized and unrealized derivative gains and/losses 192 51 389

| Calculation of Adjusted Net Income (in thousands) 24 Non-GAAP Reconciliation Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net income adjusted for significant non-cash and infrequent items. Examples of non-cash and infrequent items include insurance settlements from property and business losses, a portion of the income associated with the refundable employment-related credits from the State of New Mexico, non-cash unrealized gains or losses associated with derivative adjustments, costs associated with abnormal production and other infrequent items. Management believes adjusted net income provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of Intrepid's fundamental business on a recurring basis. In addition, management believes that the concept of adjusted net income is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the potash mining industry, and many investors use the published research of industry research analysts in making investment decisions. Adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, cash provided by operating activities or other income, profitability, cash flow, or liquidity measures prepared under U.S. GAAP. Because adjusted net income excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and may vary among companies, the adjusted net income amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. * Estimated effective tax rate of 37.9 percent for 2012, 40.0 percent for 2011, and 39.6 percent for 2010. ** Included in “other operating (income) loss” line item. 2012 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 $11,846 $3,602 $11,659 $18,178 $28,279 $30,708 $25,507 $24,917 $20,626 - - - - (12,500) - - - - refundable employment-related credit** - - - - - (4,692) (3,230) - - (89) (28) (56) (447) (321) (224) (368) (376) (224) 470 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5 188 3 330 (151) 11 22 177 5,128 1,955 1,350 148 (40) - - - - - - - (3,699) - Total adjustments 230 (17) (34) (270) (7,693) (2,956) (2,060) (3,924) 66 $12,076 $3,585 $11,625 $17,908 $20,586 $27,752 $23,447 $20,993 $20,692 2011 Calculated tax effect* Adjusted Net Income Unrealized derivative gain 2010 Net Income Adjustments Insurance settlements from property and business losses Income associated with New Mexico Change in blended state tax rate to value deferred tax asset Cost associated with abnormal production Other
