7 United States Potash Consumption Source : Fertecon, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Potash consumption is shown in fertilizer years (July – June). Potash fertilizer consumption has remained relatively constant, with an annual volatility of approximately ten percent, over the past 27 years Corn acres planted in the U.S. were 93.5MM acres in 2007, 86.0MM acres in 2008, 86.5 MM acres in 2009 and are estimated to be 88.8MM acres in 2010 1982: Recession leads to lower consumption; Payment In Kind program reduces planted acres 1991-1997: Low grain stocks lead to increased consumption 1998: Russian financial crisis impacts world markets 2001- mid 2008: Global economic expansion leads to increased demand (2006 delayed Chinese negotiations) - 50,000 100,000 150,000 200,000 250,000 - 2,000 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 Corn Acres Planted ('000) & Ending Stocks ('000 MT) KCL Tons ('000) FERTECON U.S. Potash Consumption, Corn Acres Planted and Ending Grain Stocks KCL Tons Corn Acres Ending Grain Stocks

Farmers Understand the Agronomic Benefits of Potash Potash application rates were down in 2008 and 2009 2009 presented good growing conditions for farmers A robust 2009 crop coupled with lower application rates means soils were being depleted of “banked” nutrients Over 80% of respondents said that potassium was either important and / or critical to their yield potential Strong indication that potash application rates need to at least match replacement rates Based on responses, a majority of farmers stated they rely on soil test results and that application levels will be at or near recommended rates 8 Strong Crop Yields in 2009 Result in Removal of Nutrients from the Soil (1) Intrepid Farmer Survey Confirms Importance of Potash (2) (1) USDA projection for 2009/10 Corn yield of 164.7 bu/ac.

11 Potash Market Trends Worldwide recession Global buyer / dealer hesitation Producer inventories building Elective production curtailments / mine shutdowns Relatively full supply chain at the dealer and retail level Dealers unwilling to take price risk Slower sales into agricultural & industrial markets Corn prices under pressure due to high yields from good weather Mid 2008 – Mid 2009 Today Farmers have applied potash at more historically normal levels Recent price increases by potash producers obtained some traction for spring season Dealers willing to purchase product to satisfy known demand, but hesitant to get too far ahead of known demand Global buyer hesitation subsided for a period of time, but global demand has not been quite as strong as anticipated North American producer inventory levels were reduced through the spring Sales have slowed as spring planting has come to a close Profitability of the farmer is a key consideration in any market

Q2 2010 to Date Spring buying in the agricultural market is essentially complete, following a normal demand pattern June & July historically slower period in agricultural sales cycle Dealers are purchasing when they have specific demand requirements from farmers Sales into the industrial market, primarily oil & gas drilling, remain weak as rig count has not expanded as rapidly in the Rocky Mountain region, which is serviced by our Utah operations 12 Preliminary Sales Volumes 4/1/10 – 5/31/10 (1) (short tons) Preliminary Average Net Realized Sales Price 4/1/10 – 5/31/10 (1) Potash 99,000 $370 - $375 Trio™ 55,000 $160 - $165 Unaudited results. Intrepid expects to release its second quarter 2010 financial results on August 3, 2010, and expects to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 4, 2010.

Calculation of EBITDA 36 Non-GAAP Reconciliation Earnings before income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is computed as net income adjusted for the add back of income tax expense, interest expense including derivatives, depreciation, depletion, amortization, asset retirement obligation liability accretion, write-off of term loan bank fee and impairment. This non-GAAP measure is presented since management believes that it provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of Intrepid’s ability to internally generate funds for capital investment. In addition, 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. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating activities or other income, profitability, cash flow, or liquidity measures prepared under GAAP. Since EBITDA excludes some, but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities and may vary among companies, the EBITDA amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net income for the three months ended March 31 and June 30, 2008 respectively, is presented on a pro forma basis as fully described in Part I, Item 1A to the respective Form 10-Q’s. Pro forma net income includes adjustments to reduce net income for the effect of stock compensation, interest expense, and income taxes for the period prior to our IPO. 2009 2008 2010 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Pro Forma Net Income $19,284 $32,446 $49,719 $22,690 $24,681 $14,436 $9,520 $6,705 $11,846 Add: Income tax expense 12,657 20,580 29,474 13,927 15,196 13,023 6,392 2,294 7,661 Add: Interest expense, including derivatives 1,433 (1,201) 643 2,703 203 (251) 639 214 555 Add: Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion 2,790 2,782 3,076 2,087 3,492 4,256 4,270 5,310 6,539 Add: Write-off of term loan bank fee - 456 - - - - - - - Add: Impairment Expense - - 756 - - - - - - Total adjustments 16,880 22,617 33,949 18,717 18,891 17,028 11,301 7,818 14,755 Pro Forma Earnings Before Income Taxes, Interest Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization $36,164 $55,063 $83,668 $41,407 $43,572 $31,646 $20,821 $14,523 $26,601

Calculation of Adjusted Net Income 37 Non-GAAP Reconciliation Adjusted net income is calculated as net income adjusted for significant non-cash and unusual items. Examples of non-cash and unusual charges include insurance settlements in excess of property losses, non-cash gains or losses associated with unrealized derivative adjustments, our abnormal production adjustment, and the write-off of costs associated with the delay in permitting for the HB Mine associated with contractor mobilization and demobilization. The non-GAAP measure of adjusted net income is presented because management believes it provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of Intrepid's fundamental business on a recurring normal 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 GAAP. Since 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. Net income for the three months ended March 31 and June 30, 2008 respectively, is presented on a pro forma basis as fully described in Part I, Item 1A to the respective Form 10-Q’s.
