EXPLANATORY NOTE



This amendment (Amendment) to the Annual Report on Form 10-K (2003 10-K) of Phosphate Resources Partners Limited Partnership Company (PLP) for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2003 is being filed to address comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the staffs review of (i) registration statements on Form S-4 of (a) The Mosaic Company (formerly Global
Nutrition Solutions Inc.) related to the pending combination of IMC Global Inc. (IMC) and Cargill Crop Nutrition and (b) IMC related to the pending merger of PLP into a subsidiary of IMC and (ii) the documents incorporated by reference in such
registration statements, including the 2003 10-K. The Amendment enhances and clarifies certain disclosures in the 2003 10-K. The Amendment does not change any reported amounts in the PLP Statement of Operations, Balance Sheet or Statement of Cash
Flows.



The 2003 10-K, including information that is being
added or amended by the Amendment, does not reflect any events or developments occurring subsequent to March 12, 2004, the date on which the 2003 10-K was filed. For a discussion of events and developments occurring subsequent to March 12, 2004, see
PLPs Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, each as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto on Form 10-Q/A, and PLPs Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 14, 2004,
February 5, 2004, February 27, 2004, March 19, 2004, April 1, 2004 and April 12, 2004.



PART I.



Item 1.
Business hereby is amended to read in its entirety as follows:



Item 1. Business



PARTNERSHIP PROFILE



PLP, through its joint venture investment in IMC Phosphates Company (IMC Phosphates), is one of the worlds largest and lowest cost producers, marketers and distributors of phosphate crop nutrients and animal feed ingredients, with
operations in central Florida and on the Mississippi River in Louisiana.



PLPs Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (PLP Agreement) provides that the partnership will remain in existence until the close of business on December 31, 2076. The partnership could be
terminated earlier than December 31, 2076 in accordance with provisions of the PLP Agreement that provide for termination in connection with matters such as withdrawal of a general partner (other than through a permitted transfer of its interest or
removal of the general partner by vote of a majority interest of the partners); bankruptcy or dissolution of a general partner; and judicial or other dissolution in accordance with Delaware law. The partnership could also be continued beyond
December 31, 2076 by vote of a majority interest of the partners in accordance with the provisions of the PLP Agreement. See OTHER MATTERS - Relationship Between PLP and IMC; Part II, Item 5, Market for
Registrants Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters; Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; and Notes 1, 3 and 7 of the Notes to Financial Statements
in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Part III, Item 10, Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant; and Part III, Item 11, Executive Compensation, of this 2003 10-K for
additional important information concerning the PLP Agreement, the relationship between PLP and IMC, distributions to unitholders and other matters.



IMC Phosphates business includes the mining and sale of phosphate rock and the production, marketing and distribution of phosphate crop nutrients
and animal feed ingredients. IMC Phosphates was formed as a joint venture partnership in July 1993 when PLP and IMC contributed their respective phosphate crop nutrients businesses to IMC Phosphates. IMC Phosphates is 41.5 percent owned by PLP and
58.5 percent by wholly owned subsidiaries of IMC.



In December
1997, Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FTX), the former administrative managing general partner and



1

##### Table of Contents

direct and indirect owner of a 51.6 percent interest in PLP, merged into IMC (FTX Merger). In connection
with the FTX Merger, IMC became administrative managing general partner of PLP and owner of the interest of FTX in PLP. In October 2003, IMC transferred its direct partnership interests in PLP to a new wholly owned subsidiary of IMC, PRP-GP LLC,
(PRP) a Delaware limited liability company. The transfer establishes PRP as the Administrative Managing General Partner of PLP and 51.58 percent owner of PLP. IMC continues to hold a 0.02 percent partnership interest through FMRP Inc. (FMRP), a
wholly owned subsidiary of IMC.



PLP is a publicly traded
Delaware limited partnership. As of December 31, 2003, wholly owned subsidiaries of IMC held partnership units representing an approximate 51.6 percent interest in PLP. The remaining interests are publicly owned and traded on the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE). See OTHER MATTERS - Relationship Between PLP and IMC, for further detail.



In December 2003, IMC and PLP jointly announced that IMC was considering making a proposal to merge an affiliate of IMC with PLP, with each publicly held
partnership unit in PLP being converted into the right to receive 0.2 shares of IMC common stock (PLP unit exchange). In addition, IMC and PLP announced that Alpine Capital, L.P., Keystone, Inc. and The Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Foundation
(collectively, the largest public holders of PLP units) had agreed to support such a transaction. In January 2004, IMC presented the PLP unit exchange to the Board of Directors of PRP. On March 1, 2004, IMC and PLP announced that the Board of
Directors of PRP had unanimously approved the PLP unit exchange, and recommended that unitholders vote to approve the PLP unit exchange. The merger agreement relating to the PLP unit exchange is expected to be signed shortly, following the final
approval by the Board of Directors of IMC. Such approval is expected in the near future. The PLP unit exchange will be subject to certain conditions, including among other things, necessary regulatory approvals, action by the unitholders of PLP, and
other conditions which are customary for transactions of this nature involving publicly traded companies. The PLP unit exchange is not conditioned on the consummation of IMCs combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition referred to below. If the
combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition is consummated, and IMCs common stock is converted into the right to receive common stock of the newly formed company, then each former publicly held PLP unit will be converted into the right to receive
0.2 shares of common stock of the newly created company.



In
January 2004, IMC signed a definitive agreement with Cargill, Incorporated (Cargill) to combine IMCs and Cargills Crop Nutrition businesses to create a new, publicly traded company (Newco). The combination will be effected by the
contribution by Cargill to Newco of equity interests in entities owning all or substantially all of the assets, liabilities and obligations of the Cargill Crop Nutrition businesses, in exchange for the issuance by Newco of shares of common stock and
Class B common stock to Cargill. In addition, as part of the combination, a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into IMC, with IMC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. In the merger, each outstanding share of
IMCs common stock and preferred stock will be converted into one share of Newco common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. Cargill will own approximately 66.5 percent of Newcos common stock and IMCs common stockholders will
own approximately 33.5 percent of Newcos common stock. The combination is subject to regulatory approval in the United States (U.S.), Brazil, Canada, China and several other countries; the approval of IMCs stockholders; the completion of
the PLP unit exchange; and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Subject to completion of the closing conditions contained in the definitive agreement, IMC anticipates the transaction will close in the summer of 2004.



All references herein to PLP refer to PLPs business activities as
executed through its ownership interest in IMC Phosphates unless otherwise noted.



PLPs annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments thereto, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) pursuant to Section 13(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder are made available free of charge, on PLPs website, (www.phosplp.com) as soon as reasonably practicable after PLP electronically files such material with, or
furnishes it to, the SEC. The information contained on PLPs website is not being incorporated herein.

BUSINESS OPERATIONS INFORMATION



The following discussion of business operations should be read in conjunction with the information contained in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, of this 2003 10-K.



IMC Phosphates
Company



IMC Phosphates MP Inc. (MP Co.), a subsidiary
50 percent owned by IMC and 50 percent owned by PLP, is the managing general partner of IMC Phosphates. Subject to the terms of the IMC Phosphates Partnership Agreement, IMC has, through MP Co., the sole authority to make certain decisions affecting
IMC Phosphates, including authorizing certain capital expenditures for expansion; incurring certain indebtedness; approving significant acquisitions and dispositions; and determining certain other matters.



The dollar amounts included in the discussions of IMC Phosphates throughout
this Form 10-K are shown in total for the joint venture, unless otherwise noted.



IMC Phosphates operations consist of its phosphate crop nutrients business and its animal feed ingredients business. For a further discussion of IMC Phosphates business operations, see Part I, Item 1,
Business, in IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K.



FACTORS AFFECTING DEMAND



IMC Phosphates results of operations historically have reflected the effects of several external factors, which are beyond its control and have in the past produced significant downward and upward swings in operating results. Revenues
are highly dependent upon conditions in the North American agriculture industry and can be affected by crop failure, changes in agricultural production practices, government policies and weather. Furthermore, IMC Phosphates business is
seasonal to the extent North American farmers and agricultural enterprises purchase more crop nutrient products during the spring and fall.



IMC Phosphates sells products throughout the world. Unfavorable changes in trade protection laws, policies and measures, and other regulatory requirements
affecting trade; unexpected changes in tax and trade treaties; strengthening or weakening of foreign economics as well as political relations with the U.S. may cause sales trends to customers in one or more foreign countries to differ from sales
trends in the U.S.



OTHER MATTERS



Environmental Health and Safety Matters



PLPs Program



PLP, through IMC
Phosphates, has adopted the following Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Policy (Policy):



As a key to IMC Phosphates success, IMC Phosphates is committed to the pursuit of excellence in health and safety and environmental stewardship. Every employee will strive to continuously improve IMC
Phosphates performance and to minimize adverse environmental, health and safety impacts. IMC Phosphates will proactively comply with all environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.



This Policy is the cornerstone of IMC Phosphates comprehensive EHS
management program (EHS Program), which seeks to achieve sustainable, predictable and verifiable EHS performance. Key elements of the EHS Program include: (i) identifying and managing EHS risk; (ii) complying with legal requirements; (iii) improving
IMC Phosphates EHS procedures and protocols; (iv) educating employees regarding EHS obligations; (v) retaining and developing qualified professional EHS staff; (vi) evaluating facility conditions; (vii) evaluating and

##### Table of Contents

enhancing safe workplace behaviors; (viii) performing audits; (ix) formulating EHS action plans; and (x)
assuring management accountability. IMC conducts audits to verify that each facility has identified risks, achieved regulatory compliance, implemented continuous EHS improvement, and incorporated EHS management systems into day-to-day business
functions.



For further discussion of EHS matters, see
OTHER MATTERS-Environmental Health and Safety Matters, in Part I, Item 1, Business, of IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and
Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K.



Employees



PLP has no employees. See
OTHER MATTERS - Relationship Between PLP and IMC. Substantially all individuals who perform services for IMC Phosphates are employed by MP Co. This includes former employees of PLP and IMC who were transferred to MP Co.
when IMC Phosphates was formed. As of December 31, 2003, MP Co. had 2,972 employees. The work force consisted of 733 salaried employees, 2,239 hourly employees and no temporary or part-time employees.



Labor Relations



MP Co. has two collective bargaining agreements with affiliated local
chapters of the same international union. As of December 31, 2003, approximately 90 percent of the hourly work force was covered under collective bargaining agreements. One agreement was re-negotiated during 2003. One agreement will expire in 2004.
MP Co. has not experienced a significant work stoppage in recent years and considers its employee relations to be good.



Relationship Between PLP and IMC



Management and Ownership



PRP serves as Administrative Managing General Partner of PLP and the management and officers of PRP perform all PLP management functions and carry out the
activities of PLP. The management, officers and employees of IMC and its subsidiaries (including PRP) provide certain services for PLP, including financial, management, treasury, tax, information systems, environmental, insurance, legal and
accounting.



As of December 31, 2003, PRP held partnership
units that represented an approximate 51.58 percent interest in PLP. As a result of PRPs position as Administrative Managing General Partner and of its ownership interest, PRP has the ability to control all matters relating to the management
of PLP, including any determination with respect to the acquisition or disposition of PLP assets, future issuance of additional debt or other securities of PLP and any distributions payable in respect of PLPs partnership interests. In addition
to such other obligations it may assume, PRP has a general duty to act in good faith in handling the assets and affairs of PLP.



During 2003, PLP made no distributions to the public unitholders. On February 5, 2004, PLP announced that it would not make a cash distribution for the
quarter ended December 31, 2003. Total unpaid cash distributions due to PRP of $431.3 million existed as of December 31, 2003. PLPs distributable cash is shared ratably by PLPs public unitholders and PRP, except that PRP is entitled to
recover its unpaid cash distributions on a quarterly basis from one half of any excess of future quarterly distributable cash over $0.60 cents per unit to all unitholders.



Intercompany Charges



Affiliated Loans to PLP. In addition to distributions from IMC Phosphates, PLP has historically relied on borrowings from IMC as a principal source
of liquidity. As of December 31, 2003, the aggregate principal amount of such loans was $418.3 million, and the weighted average annual interest rate for such loans was 4.54 percent. Reference is made to the information set forth in Note 3 of
PLPs Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this 2003 10-K.

##### Table of Contents

IMC does not allocate any of IMCs interest expense to PLP. Rather, PLP pays IMC interest on the
outstanding borrowings by PLP from IMC referred to above pursuant to two outstanding promissory notes payable upon demand of IMC. As set forth in Note 3 of PLPs Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data of this 2003 10-K, PLP paid interest to IMC on these notes of $19.1 million, $19.8 million and $23.1 million for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As further described therein, one of such notes (the variable rate
note) bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus one percent and the other (the fixed rate note) bears interest at a fixed rate equal to 8.75 percent. The rate on the variable rate note reflected the applicable rate to
IMC at the time of issuance of the note under IMCs then-existing bank credit agreement. The proceeds of the fixed rate note were used primarily to fund PLPs tender offer pursuant to which PLP repurchased $144.3 million of PLPs 8.75
percent notes due 2004. The rate on the fixed rate note was set at the same rate as PLPs 8.75 percent notes due 2004 that the fixed rate note replaced.



Loans from a general partner to PLP are explicitly permitted under PLPs partnership agreement, as follows:



A General Partner or any Affiliate of a General Partner may lend to
the Partnership funds needed by the Partnership for such periods of time as the Administrative Managing General Partner may determine...



Any [ such ] loans... shall bear interest at the rate (including points or other financing charges or fees) that would be charged the borrower
thereunder (without reference to the financial abilities or guarantees of Affiliates of such borrower) by unrelated lenders on comparable loans.



At the time of the advances, IMC believed that the terms of the loans were appropriate in view of the perceived financial strengths of PLP. During the
period from the time the loans were first extended, the credit standing of PLP and of IMC Phosphates deteriorated, which, in the view of IMC management, was largely for reasons related to operating in a cyclically depressed phosphates market.
However, the interest rates charged by IMC failed to reflect the eroded credit standing. As a consequence, some of those rates are, in the view of IMC management, below, and in some cases significantly below, rates that PLP would incur if it were to
seek comparable loans from unrelated lenders. See Review of Intercompany Charges below.



General and Administrative Allocations. As noted above, the management and officers of PRP perform all of PLPs management functions and carry
out the activities of PLP. Employees of IMC and its subsidiaries provide certain services for PLP, including financial, management, treasury, tax, information systems, environmental, insurance, legal and accounting services. IMC is reimbursed for
its direct and indirect costs in providing these services, based on an allocation by IMC.



PLPs partnership agreement provides that each general partner of PLP:



shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis for all direct expenses it incurs or makes on behalf of the Partnership (including amounts paid to any Person
to perform services for the Partnership) and for that portion... of its legal, accounting, geological, engineering, telephone, secretarial, aircraft, travel and entertainment fees and expenses, office rent and other office expenses,
salaries and other compensation of employees, officers and directors, other administrative expenses and other expenses necessary or appropriate to the conduct of the Partnerships business... which are reasonably allocable to the
Partnership.



In addition, the general partner is
directed to determine such fees and expenses which are allocated to the Partnership in any reasonable manner.



Since the IMC merger with FTX, IMC has charged PLP an annual administrative fee of $6.0 million, to cover overhead and other items not otherwise charged
to PLP. For 2003, 2002 and 2001, PLP paid IMC $6.2 million, $6.2 million and $6.3 million, respectively, in respect of selling, general and administrative expenses. These amounts were comprised of the annual allocation to the Partnership of $6.0
million of IMCs selling, general and administrative expenses plus reimbursement by PLP of certain other expenses incurred by IMC on behalf of PLP. See also, Review of Intercompany Charges below.

Review of Intercompany Charges. Starting in 2002, IMCs management began a comprehensive
review to inquire whether the terms and rates that IMC charged PLP on intercompany borrowings were appropriate. In this review, IMC engaged the services of inside and outside legal counsel and financial advisors, and in-house treasury staff. As a
consequence of its review, management concluded that it would further consider the terms of the loans to PLP and IMC Phosphates, perhaps with the assistance of directors independent of IMC.



Also starting in 2002, IMCs management began a comprehensive review to
inquire whether IMC was allocating the proper charge to cover the otherwise unreimbursed costs to IMC of providing services to PLP in light of changes in PLP and its business, including among other things, the transition from the prior management
of, and other relationships with, FTX and its former affiliated companies, as well as PLPs exit from the oil and gas business. In this review, IMC engaged the services of inside and outside legal counsel and in-house accounting, treasury and
tax staff. As part of the effort, management identified IMC expenses that had been incurred on behalf of PLP for the years 2000 through 2002, and concluded that the overhead allocations during that three-year period exceeded, on average, $6 million
annually. As a consequence of its review, management concluded that the overhead allocations to date were appropriate, but that the allocations going forward should be reviewed regularly and perhaps by directors independent of IMC.



As a result of these reviews, IMC management has been of the view that the
intercompany charges assessed to PLP, taking into account the rate of interest on affiliate loans and overhead allocations, has been substantially less than what IMC would have been permitted to charge under PLPs partnership agreement, and in
the aggregate effectively subsidized PLP. In that light, the historical financial performance of PLP in recent years, if anything, reflected a greater value for PLP than would have been the case if, for example, IMC had charged a market rate for
loans to PLP.



Accordingly, IMC initiated a review with PLP of
the interest rates on the outstanding borrowings by PLP from IMC. Such review was initiated with the independent audit committee of the board of directors of PRP. Because action as a consequence of this review is unlikely in view of the imminence of
the PLP merger, and completion of the review will be unnecessary if the PLP merger is consummated, the review remains in a preliminary stage and no final determinations concerning changes in interest rates have been made. However, in initiating its
review with the independent audit committee of PRP, IMC management expressed its view that the interest rates currently charged by IMC to PLP are substantially below the rates that would be charged to PLP by unrelated lenders on comparable loans as
required to be established by PLPs partnership agreement. In this regard, IMC notes that outstanding borrowings under IMCs current bank credit agreement currently bear interest at LIBOR plus (in the case of revolving borrowings) 325
basis points and (in the case of term loans) 400 basis points and that, in the view of IMCs management, PLPs creditworthiness would not permit it to obtain interest rates from unrelated lenders on comparable loans as favorable as the
rates under IMCs current bank credit agreement. IMC management further anticipates that such an increase in interest expense would to an immaterial extent be offset by a much smaller reduction in the level of future selling, general and
administrative expense allocations on the assumption that the IMC administrative resources supporting PLP could decline in the future. Accordingly, if such review were to be completed, in the opinion of IMC management, the result would be a
substantial increase in interest expense charges to PLP, which in turn would have an adverse impact on PLPs operating results, liquidity and capital resources.



IMC does not have an estimate of what PLPs expenses would have been on a stand-alone basis if PLP had operated as an
independent entity; however, IMC believes that such expenses would inevitably be higher than those charged by IMC, particularly in light of the historical support from IMC and the inefficiencies that would be associated with stand-alone board, audit
committee, liability and litigation management, finance, human resources, tax, accounting, investor relations, legal, risk management and other services currently provided as needed by IMC.



In the opinion of IMC management, the total selling, administrative and
general expense allocations and interest charges from IMC and its affiliates to the Partnership are reasonable to the Partnership.

IMC Phosphates and IMC - Intercompany Charges in the IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K.

Conflicts of Interest



The nature of the respective businesses of PLP and IMC and its affiliates may give rise to conflicts of interest between PLP
and IMC. Conflicts could arise, for example, with respect to transactions involving potential acquisitions of businesses or mineral properties, the issuance of additional partnership interests, the determination of distributions to be made, the
allocation of general and administrative expenses between PLP and IMC and other business dealings between PLP and IMC and its affiliates. Except in cases where a different standard may have been provided for, PRP, as a General Partner of PLP, is
accountable to PLP as a fiduciary and consequently, must exercise good faith in handling the assets and affairs of PLP. However, unlike the strict duty of a fiduciary who must act solely in the best interests of the beneficiary in resolving
conflicts of interest, the PLP Agreement permits IMC to consider the relative interest of each party to a potential conflict situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests which, under certain circumstances, could include the
interest of PRP and its other affiliates. Further, the PLP Agreement provides that any loans from a general partner or any affiliate of a general partner (such as IMC) to PLP shall bear interest at the rate that would be charged to PLP by unrelated
lenders on comparable loans. IMC has entered into discussions with PLP contemplating a revision to the terms of the loans from IMC, including the interest rate, if warranted. IMC has also entered into discussions with PLP contemplating a revision to
the selling, general and administrative expense allocation from IMC, if warranted.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



INTRODUCTION



Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with PLPs financial
statements and accompanying notes included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, and IMC Phosphates financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data, of IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K. PLPs continuing business operations consist of its 41.5
percent joint venture ownership interest in IMC Phosphates.



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



PLP



2003 Compared to 2002



PLP incurred a loss in 2003 of $70.5 million, or $0.68 per unit. This
compares to a loss of $22.6 million, or $0.22 per unit for 2002. The increased loss in 2003 resulted from: (i) a decrease in the equity in earnings of IMC Phosphates due to higher raw material, operating and shut down costs, partially offset by
higher sales prices as well as PLPs share of a gain of $5.8 million on the sale of IMC Phosphates Port Sutton main terminal in East Tampa, Florida; (ii) the adoption of SFAS No.143 by IMC Phosphates, effective January 1, 2003, which
resulted in a decrease to PLPs investment in IMC Phosphates and a charge for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of $13.6 million; (iii) the recording of a $2.5 million accrual for estimated environmental litigation
related to a non-operating site recorded in Other expense, net; partially offset by (iv) a reduction in Selling, general and administrative expense of $4.0 million primarily resulting from a $1.7 million favorable impact from post retirement benefit
plan amendment changes and a reversal of a $1.4 million accrual that was recorded as part of the purchase accounting related to the merger between IMC and FTX and was no longer necessary based on most recent assessments.



See also Part I, Item 1, Business - Other Matters - Relationship
Between PLP and IMC - Review of Intercompany Charges of this 2003 10-K with respect to the potential adverse impact of prospective changes in intercompany charges from IMC.



2002 Compared to 2001



PLP incurred a loss in 2002 of $22.6 million, or $0.22 per unit. 2001 results were a loss of $71.3 million, or $0.69 per unit including special charges of
$12.4 million, or $0.12 per unit, for environmental, severance and related costs. The reduced loss in 2002 primarily resulted from: (i) an increase in equity in earnings of IMC Phosphates caused by higher concentrated phosphate sales prices, lower
idle plant costs and the favorable impact of a $6.5 million IMC Phosphates price adjustment related to prior periods, partially offset by higher phosphate operating costs; (ii) reduced interest expense from lower variable interest rates; and
(iii) the absence of the 2001 special charges.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES



PLP and IMC Phosphates record accrued liabilities for various environmental matters, reclamation activities and the
demolition of former operating facilities. As of December 31, 2003, PLP had $3.0 million accrued for environmental matters and IMC Phosphates had $143.9 million accrued for asset retirement obligations and $18.8 million for the demolition of former
operating facilities. The estimation processes used to determine the amounts of these accrued liabilities are very complex and use information obtained from PLP and IMC Phosphates-specific and industry data, as well as general economic information.



Accruals for environmental matters are based on third party
estimates for the cost of remediation at previously operated sites and estimates of legal costs for ongoing litigation. PLP is required to assess the likelihood of material adverse judgments or outcomes as well as potential ranges or probability of
losses. PLP determines the amount of accruals required, if any, for contingencies after carefully analyzing each individual issue. The required accruals may change due to new developments in each matter, or changes in approach, such as a change in
settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. Actual costs to be incurred at identified sites in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures. Using reasonably possible
alternative assumptions of the exposure could result in an increase or decrease to the environmental reserve. Due to the inherent uncertainties related to environmental exposures, a significant increase to the reasonably possible exposure level
could occur if the scope of the remediation was increased, a significant increase in PLPs proportionate share occurred or a new site was identified to need environmental remediation. In the past, some of the established accruals have been
found to be either under or over accrued once the final settlement of a legal case or completion of an environmental project has occurred. For more detail, see Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements
and Supplementary Data, of this 2003 10-K.



On January
1, 2003, IMC Phosphates began accounting for its asset retirement obligations under SFAS No. 143. Based upon the guidance of SFAS No. 143, IMC Phosphates obtained third party estimates for the costs of retiring the assets. The costs are inflated
based on an inflation factor and discounted based on a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Fluctuations in the estimated costs, inflation rates and interest rates can have a significant impact on the amounts recorded. A one-percentage point decrease in
the discount rate would increase the liability by approximately $20.0 million. For more detail, see Note 1 of PLPs Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this 2003 10-K.
The demolition of former operating facilities is based on third party estimates of the costs to be incurred. For further information, see Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary
Data, of IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K.



These estimation processes require PLP and IMC Phosphates to continuously monitor and evaluate the reasonableness of the
judgments made and adjust for changes in assumptions as they occur. Actual payments for the above matters could differ from those estimated.



Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits



The measurement of PLPs pension and other postretirement obligations and costs is dependent on a variety of assumptions used by PLPs actuaries
in their models which calculate the costs and obligations. These assumptions include, among other things, estimating the present value of projected future benefit payments to all plan participants while taking into account the likelihood of
potential future events such as salary increases and certain demographic factors including mortality and employee turnover. Key assumptions determined by PLP as of the plans measurement date each year and utilized by the actuary in the
calculation of pension and other postretirement obligations are:



| |  | Discount rate  The discount rate is based on the change in investment yields available on corporate long-term bonds rated AA.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Expected return on plan assets  The expected return on plan assets is based on PLPs consideration of the current level of expected returns on risk free investments
(primarily government bonds), the historical level of risk associated with the other assets in which the portfolio is invested and expectation of future returns in each asset class, based on historical returns of those asset classes over an extended
period of time. The expected return of each asset class was then weighted based on the target asset allocation. PLP also considered historical plan returns and future expectations.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Rate of compensation increase  The rate of compensation increase is a factor of PLPs long-term actual experience, near-term outlook and assumed inflation.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Healthcare cost trend  The healthcare cost trend is based on assumptions on future increases in medical costs which is a factor of PLPs actual experience combined with
third party long-term medical cost trends.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Sensitivity Analyses. The impact of the indicated decrease in the two more critical assumptions is shown below for the 2004 costs. While a one percent decrease in the assumed return
on assets would not have an impact on pension expense. Any impact would be amortized over a three year period.

Future changes in
plan asset returns, assumed discount rates and various other factors related to the participants in PLPs pension plans will impact PLPs future pension expense and liabilities. Additionally, changes in healthcare cost trends will impact
the other benefits expenses and liabilities. PLP cannot predict with certainty what these factors will be in the future and, therefore, cannot assess the impact of such changes.



The amount of the current unrecognized losses on pension assets and the estimated effect of such losses on future pension
expense are as follows:

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY



Historically, PLP has satisfied its borrowing needs through IMC. PLP has borrowed $418.3 million from IMC as of December 31,
2003. PLP has two separate credit agreements with IMC (IMC Agreements). One agreement is a demand note for up to $300.0 million and bears interest at a variable rate, based on LIBOR plus one percent, which was 2.1875 percent as of December 31, 2003,
while the other agreement is an 8.75 percent demand note for up to $150.0 million. Interest under the IMC Agreements is payable quarterly. PLP had borrowed $268.3 million and $150.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2003 under the IMC
Agreements. IMC has advised PLP that it does not intend to demand payment on the IMC Agreements prior to January 1, 2005; however, IMC has entered into discussions with PLP contemplating a revision to the terms of the loans from IMC, including the
interest rate, if warranted. If such review were to be completed, in the opinion of IMC management, the result would be a substantial increase in interest expense charges to PLP, which in turn would have an adverse impact on PLPs operating
results, liquidity and capital resources. See Part I, Item 1, Business - Other Matters - Relationship Between PLP and IMC - Review of Intercompany Charges of this 2003 10-K. The IMC Agreements evidencing the obligations to IMC have been
classified as long-term.



IMCs ability to make payments
on and to refinance its indebtedness and to fund planned capital expenditures and expansion efforts in the future, if any, will depend on IMCs ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic,
financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond IMCs control. IMC believes that its cash, other liquid assets and operating cash flow, together with available borrowings and potential access to credit and capital markets, will be
sufficient to meet IMCs operating expenses and capital expenditures and to service its debt requirements and other contractual obligations as they become due.



IMCs credit facilities require it to maintain certain financial ratios, including a leverage ratio test and an
interest coverage test. In addition, the credit facilities contain certain covenants and events of default. Most of IMCs various material debt instruments have cross default provisions. In general, pursuant to these provisions, the instruments
governing such debt arrangements each provide that a failure to pay principal or interest under other indebtedness in excess of a specified threshold amount will result in a cross-default. Of IMCs material debt instruments, the senior credit
facility entered into on May 17, 2001 (Credit Facility) has the lowest specified threshold amount, $20.0 million. IMCs access to funds is dependent upon its product prices, input costs and market conditions. During periods in which product
prices or volumes; raw material prices or availability; or other conditions reflect the adverse impact of cyclical market trends or other factors, there can be no assurance that IMC would be able to comply with applicable financial covenants or meet
its liquidity needs. IMC cannot assure that its business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future; that its currently anticipated growth in net sales and cash flow will be realized; or that future borrowings will be available
when needed or in an amount sufficient to enable IMC to repay indebtedness or to fund other liquidity needs.



IMC is seeking to obtain certain amendments to the Credit Facility, primarily to amend a requirement that IMC refinance the remaining approximately $37.0
million of senior notes scheduled to mature in 2005 (2005 Senior Notes) prior to October 15, 2004, and also, among other things, modifying financial ratio covenant levels for 2004. In 2003, IMC refinanced approximately $413.0 million of the $450.0
million 2005 Senior Notes then outstanding. Absent an amendment, should the remainder of the 2005 Senior Notes not be refinanced in full prior to October 15, 2004, the Credit Facility would mature on October 15, 2004. IMC is seeking the ability to
repay approximately $10.0 million of the 2005 Senior Notes at maturity in January 2005 and to extend the date by which it must refinance the remaining balance of the 2005 Senior Notes to March 2005. In order to obtain the amendment pertaining
specifically to the extension of the maturity date, IMC must obtain unanimous consent from the participants in the Credit Facility. The other amendments, including the modifying of covenant levels, require only a majority vote of the participants in
the Credit Facility.

There can be no assurance that IMC will be able to obtain any necessary waivers or amendments from the
requisite lenders. Any failure to comply with the restrictions of the credit facilities or any agreement governing its indebtedness may result in an event of default under those agreements. Such default may allow the creditors to accelerate the
related debt, which may trigger cross-acceleration or cross-default provisions in other debt. In addition, lenders may be able to terminate any commitments they had made to supply IMC with further funds (including periodic rollovers of existing
borrowings). IMC has been in compliance with all of its debt and other covenants during all periods presented. No waivers have been necessary.



PLPs ability to generate cash is dependent on distributions from its joint venture investment in IMC Phosphates. Operating activities used $30.7
million and $34.9 million in cash in 2003 and 2002, respectively. IMC currently has loans aggregating $314.5 million outstanding to IMC Phosphates as of December 31, 2003. IMC is considering entering into discussions with IMC Phosphates
contemplating a revision to the terms of the loans from IMC to IMC Phosphates, including the interest rate, if warranted.



Net cash provided by financing activities in 2003 was $30.7 million, which decreased by $4.2 million from $34.9 million in 2002. Cash provided by
financing activities in both periods was the result of additional borrowing from IMC used to fund operating activities. PLP anticipates that for the foreseeable future any available cash will be used to reduce outstanding debt with IMC. As a result,
no cash distributions to unitholders are planned in the foreseeable future.



In addition to distributions from IMC Phosphates, PLP has historically relied on borrowings from IMC as a principal source of liquidity. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, IMC and certain of its domestic subsidiaries,
including PLP and IMC Phosphates, may borrow up to approximately $470.0 million. The Credit Facility consisted of a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) of up to $210.0 million available for revolving credit loans and letters of
credit as well as a term loan facility (Term Loan Facility) of $258.3 million.



The Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of IMCs direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, as well as by certain direct and indirect foreign subsidiaries. The
Credit Facility is secured by: (i) a pledge of certain equity interests and intercompany debt held by IMC and the subsidiary guarantors in their subsidiaries; (ii) a security interest in accounts receivable and inventory; and (iii) mortgages on
certain of IMCs potash mining and production facilities, with a net book value of $290.2 million as of December 31, 2003. The guarantees by PLP and IMC Phosphates are limited by the amount of existing intercompany debt owed by such entities to
IMC and its other subsidiaries. Any payment under such guarantees would constitute a corresponding repayment of such intercompany debt.



The Credit Facility requires IMC to meet certain financial tests, including, but not limited to, a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum secured
leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum ratio of the sum of certain secured obligations as of any date to the collateral coverage amount (as defined in the Credit Facility). In addition, the Credit Facility contains certain
covenants, including limitations on the payment of dividends, and events of default.



As of December 31, 2003, IMC had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, outstanding letters of credit totaling $82.4 million, $1.5 million of which do not reduce availability under the
Revolving Credit Facility, and $258.3 million outstanding under the Term Loan Facility. The net available additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2003, were approximately $129.1 million.

Most of IMCs sales of potash into and from the U.S. are made through a subsidiary, IMC USA Inc. LLC
(IMC USA). In May 2003, IMC USA entered into a five year $55.0 million revolving credit facility (Potash Facility) where it may borrow up to a maximum of $52.5 million subject to a borrowing base calculation based on eligible inventory and accounts
receivable. Borrowings under the Potash Facility bear an interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread (initially 275 basis points), and are secured by IMC USAs accounts receivable and inventory. The Potash Facility is available for the general
corporate purposes of IMC USA. Borrowings under the Potash Facility are guaranteed on an unsecured basis by IMC USA Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of IMC and the parent of IMC USA. Neither IMC, nor any other subsidiary is a guarantor for the borrowings
under the Potash Facility. As of December 31, 2003, the Potash Facility had a borrowing base that could support borrowings up to $31.3 million, of which IMC USA had full availability.



In June 2003, IMC sold 2.75 million shares of 7.5 percent Mandatory Convertible Preferred Shares (liquidation preference $50
per share) (Preferred Shares) for net proceeds of $133.1 million. The Preferred Shares have a dividend yield of 7.5 percent, a 22 percent conversion premium (for an equivalent conversion price of $7.76 per common share) and will mandatorily convert
into shares of IMCs common stock on July 1, 2006. The net proceeds of the offering were used for general corporate purposes, which included funding working capital and debt reduction. The number of common shares that could be issued upon
conversion of the 2.75 million Preferred Shares ranges from approximately 17.7 million shares to 21.6 million shares, based upon the average market price of IMCs common stock.



On August 1, 2003 IMC issued $400.0 million principal amount of 10.875 percent Notes due 2013 with net proceeds before fees
and expenses of $391.1 million (August Note Offering). The proceeds of the August Note Offering, together with $59.4 million of proceeds from the Preferred Shares, were used to: (i) repurchase $140.4 million of the 6.55 percent notes due 2005 and
$273.1 million of the 7.625 percent notes due 2005 pursuant to tender offers (Tender Offers) completed on August 1, 2003; (ii) pay $23.3 million of tender premiums related to the Tender Offers; (iii) pay $5.6 million of accrued interest related to
the repurchased bonds; and (iv) pay related fees and expenses. The 10.875 percent notes due 2013 contain covenants similar to and rank pari pasu with IMCs 10.875 percent notes due 2008 and the 11.25 percent notes due 2011 (collectively the
Notes) and are guaranteed by the same subsidiaries of IMC, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, that guarantee the 10.875 percent notes due 2008 and the 11.25 percent notes due 2011. The guarantees by PLP and IMC Phosphates are limited by the amount of
intercompany debt owed by such entities to IMC and its other subsidiaries. The Notes contain certain covenants that limit matters including the making of restricted payments, as defined. Under the most restrictive of the covenants limiting
restricted payments, as of December 31, 2003, IMC had $22.2 million available for the payment of cash dividends with respect to its common and preferred stock. In addition, the merger agreement with Cargill limits dividends on IMCs common and
preferred stock to regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.02 per share and $0.9375 per share, respectively.

IMC Phosphates has $119.8 million of non-current liabilities for reclamation activities, phosphogypsum stack (Gypstack) closure and water treatment in its
Florida and Louisiana operations, where to obtain necessary permits, it must either pass a test of financial strength or provide credit support, typically surety bonds or financial guarantees. As of December 31, 2003 IMC Phosphates had $84.4 million
in surety bonds outstanding which mature over the course of 2004, and met the financial strength test for the remaining portion of such additional liabilities. In connection with the outstanding surety bonds, IMC Phosphates, through IMC, has posted
$40.0 million of collateral in the form of letters of credit. There can be no assurance that IMC Phosphates can continue to pass such tests of financial strength or to purchase surety bonds on the same terms and conditions. However, IMC Phosphates
anticipates that it will be able to satisfy applicable credit support requirements without disrupting normal business operations.



In addition, IMC Phosphates has granted a mortgage on approximately 22,000 previously mined acres of land in Florida with a net book value of
approximately $14.0 million as security for certain reclamation costs in the event that an option granted to a third party to purchase the mortgaged land is not exercised.



The State of Florida has begun formulating new financial assurance rules for closure and long-term care of Gypstacks. Such
rules likely will become effective in 2004 and are expected to include more stringent financial tests than the current rules, along with requirements that closure cost estimates include the cost of treating Gypstack water. Until definitive
regulations or interpretations have been finalized, IMC Phosphates is unable to determine the nature of the new financial assurance obligations or to predict with certainty the financial impact of these requirements on IMC Phosphates; however, these
impacts could be significant. IMC Phosphates currently recognizes both Gypstack closure costs and Gypstack water treatment costs as liabilities in accordance with SFAS No.143.



Most of IMC Phosphates export sales of phosphate crop nutrients are marketed through Phosphates Chemicals Export
Association (PhosChem). As a member, IMC Phosphates is, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, contractually obligated to reimburse PhosChem for its pro rata share of any operating expenses or other liabilities incurred. The reimbursements
are made through reductions to members cash receipts from PhosChem.

Reference is made to
OTHER MATTERS - Environmental, Health and Safety Matters, in Part I, Item 1, Business, of this 2003 10-K.



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



All statements, other than statements of historical fact contained within this Form 10-K, constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, forward-looking statements may include words such as expect, anticipate, believe, may, should,
could or estimate. These statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations as of the date of this Form 10-K.



Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: general business and economic conditions and governmental policies affecting the agricultural industry in localities where PLP, IMC Phosphates or
its customers operate; weather conditions; the terms and interest rates on debt of PLP and of IMC Phosphates; the willingness of IMC to continue to loan funds to PLP and IMC Phosphates; changes in the Selling, general and administrative expense
allocation charged by IMC to PLP; the impact of competitive products; pressure on prices realized by PLP and IMC Phosphates for its products; constraints on supplies of raw materials used in manufacturing certain of PLPs and IMC
Phosphates products; capacity constraints limiting the production of certain products; difficulties or delays in the development, production, testing and marketing of products; difficulties or delays in receiving, or increased costs of
obtaining or satisfying conditions of, required governmental and regulatory approvals; market acceptance issues, including the failure of products to generate anticipated sales levels; the effects of and change in trade, monetary, environmental and
fiscal policies, laws and regulations; foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates; the costs and effects of legal proceedings, including environmental and administrative proceedings involving PLP and IMC Phosphates; success in
implementing PLPs and IMC Phosphates various initiatives; the uncertain effects upon the global and domestic economies and financial markets of the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001 and their
aftermaths; and other risk factors reported from time to time in PLPs and IMC Phosphates SEC reports. These factors are based upon IMCs strategic plans and direction under its current Board of Directors and management. As described
in Part I, Item 1, Business, of this 2003 10-K, IMC has entered into a business combination agreement with Cargill. If the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated, IMCs business would be operated by a newly-formed public
company going forward. The Board of Directors and management of the new public company may not be the same as exists on the date hereof for IMC, and they may operate the business of IMC in a manner that differs from IMCs current operations.
The factors listed above do not account for any such possible change in IMCs operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Partners
of Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership:



We have audited the
accompanying balance sheets of Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership (Partnership), a Delaware Limited Partnership, as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related statements of operations, cash flows and partners deficit for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the General Partners management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.



In 2003, as discussed in Note 1, the Partnership changed its method of accounting for asset retirement obligations to conform to Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Statement No. 143. In 2001, as discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Partnership changed its method of accounting for derivative financial instruments to conform with FASB No. 133.

Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership

Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, except per unit amounts)



|1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | ------------------------------------------



Basis of Presentation and Ownership



In October 2003, IMC Global Inc. (IMC) transferred its partnership interest in Phosphate Resources Partners Limited Partnership (PLP) to a new wholly
owned subsidiary of IMC, PRP-GP LLC (PRP), a Delaware limited liability company. This transfer established PRP as the administrative managing general partner of PLP and owner of the 51.58 percent direct interest in PLP formerly held by IMC since
December 1997.



The financial statements of PLP, a Delaware
limited partnership, include its investment in IMC Phosphates Company (IMC Phosphates), which is accounted for using the equity method. The activities of IMC Phosphates, 41.5 percent owned by PLP, include: (i) the mining and sale of phosphate rock;
and (ii) the production, distribution and sale of concentrated phosphates, animal feed ingredients and related products. PLP operates in one business segment. Under the equity method, PLPs investment in IMC Phosphates is displayed as a single
amount in PLPs Balance Sheet and PLPs share of IMC Phosphates earnings or losses is displayed as a single amount in PLPs Statement of Operations. PLPs Investment in IMC Phosphates as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 is
lower than its 41.5 percent ownership percentage in IMC Phosphates net assets by $87.5 million and $99.0 million, respectively. This amount is being amortized over 7.5 years. See IMC Phosphates Consolidated Financial Statements included
in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and Reports on Form 8-K, of this 2003 10-K.



On a quarterly basis, IMC Phosphates calculates cash distributable to IMC and PLP based on formulas and sharing ratios as defined in the IMC Phosphates
Partnership Agreement (Partnership Agreement). Sharing ratios for all IMC Phosphates operations are fixed at 58.5 percent to IMC and 41.5 percent to PLP. The distributable cash from IMC Phosphates (as defined in the Partnership Agreement)
calculated was $22.8 million, $10.0 million and zero for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



Use of Estimates



Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.



Cash and Cash
Equivalents



IMC Phosphates cash and cash
equivalents are not available to PLP until a distribution is paid by IMC Phosphates.



Accrued Environmental Costs



IMC Phosphates produces and distributes crop and animal nutrients. These activities subject IMC Phosphates to an evolving myriad of international, federal, state, provincial and local environmental, health and safety laws, which regulate,
or propose to regulate: (i) conduct of mining and production operations, including employee safety procedures; (ii) condition of IMC Phosphates facilities; (iii) management and handling of raw materials; (iv) product content; (v) use of
products by both IMC Phosphates and its customers; (vi) management and/or remediation of potential impacts to air, water quality and soil from IMC Phosphates operations; (vii) disposal of waste materials; and (viii) reclamation of lands after
mining. PLP and IMC Phosphates have contingent environmental liabilities that arise principally from three sources: (i) facilities currently or formerly owned by PLP, IMC Phosphates or its predecessors; (ii) facilities adjacent to currently or
formerly owned facilities; and (iii) third-party Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) and state equivalent sites. The historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal nutrients
and additives as well as by-product or process tailings have resulted in soil and groundwater contamination, requiring PLP or IMC Phosphates to undertake or fund cleanup efforts.

##### Table of Contents

The environmental costs discussed above include: fines, penalties and certain corrective actions to
address violations of the law; remediation of properties that are currently or were formerly owned or operated by PLP or IMC Phosphates, or its predecessors; remediation costs of facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities or for
third-party Superfund sites; and legal fees and expenses associated with resolution of administrative processes or litigation concerning these environmental costs. Environmental accruals are recorded on an undiscounted basis for environmental
investigatory and non-capital remediation costs and for costs associated with litigation at identified sites when litigation has commenced or a claim or assessment has been asserted or is imminent, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is
probable and the financial impact of such outcome is reasonably estimable. These accruals are adjusted as necessary for any changes in PLPs or IMC Phosphates estimates of the future costs associated with these matters. PLP and IMC
Phosphates cannot determine the cost of any remedial action that ultimately may be required at unknown sites, sites for which investigations have not been performed or have begun but have not been completed or sites at which unanticipated conditions
are discovered.



Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities



IMC Phosphates and PLP are exposed to
the impact of interest rate changes on borrowings and the impact of fluctuations in the purchase price of natural gas, ammonia and sulphur consumed in operations, as well as changes in the market value of its financial instruments. IMC Phosphates
periodically enters into derivatives in order to minimize the effects of changing natural gas prices, but not for trading purposes.



On January 1, 2001, PLP and IMC Phosphates adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities, as amended. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 133, IMC Phosphates recorded a transition adjustment upon adoption of SFAS No. 133 to record its derivative instruments at fair value. The effect of this
transition adjustment resulted in a gain of $1.6 million recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is included in IMC Phosphates Partners capital, of which PLPs share was $0.7 million. IMC Phosphates
recognized all of the unrealized gains associated with this transition adjustment during the first quarter of 2001.



IMC Phosphates uses financial instruments, including forward exchange, option, futures and swap contracts, to manage its exposure to movements in
commodity prices. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intent to reduce the risk and variability to IMC Phosphates. Initially, upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, and prospectively, on the date a derivative
contract is entered into, IMC Phosphates designates the derivative as either: (i) a hedge of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (fair value hedge); (ii) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of
cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge); or (iii) as a natural hedging instrument whose change in fair value is recognized to act as an economic hedge against changes in the values of the hedged
item (natural hedge). IMC Phosphates formally documents its hedge relationships, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge
transaction. IMC Phosphates also formally assesses both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are effective in offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the
hedged item. When it is determined that a derivative ceases to be an effective hedge, IMC Phosphates discontinues hedge accounting.



IMC Phosphates had $47.6 million and $13.7 million notional amounts of natural gas forward purchase contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2003 and
2002, respectively, with the contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2003 maturing in various months through March 2005. These derivative financial instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and are being used to hedge volatility in
natural gas prices. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of IMC Phosphates cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). As of December 31, 2003, IMC Phosphates had unrealized gains totaling $3.6
million (PLPs share is $1.5 million) related to its cash flow hedges all of which are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

##### Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2002, IMC Phosphates had unrealized gains totaling $4.4 million (PLPs share is
$1.9 million) related to its cash flow hedges. Unrealized gains or losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are recognized in earnings in the same period that the underlying hedged item is realized. The ineffective portion of
changes in the fair value of IMC Phosphates cash flow hedges is reported in Other expense, net and amounted to income of $3.6 million in 2003, zero in 2002 and a charge of $3.1 million in 2001.



Income Taxes



PLP is not a taxable entity; therefore, no income taxes are reported in its
financial statements.



Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations



On January 1, 2003 PLP and IMC Phosphates
adopted SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets to be recognized at their fair value at the time that the obligations are incurred.
Application of the new rules by IMC Phosphates resulted in an increase in its net property, plant and equipment of $17.9 million, recognition by IMC Phosphates of an additional asset retirement obligation liability of $50.6 million, and a charge by
IMC Phosphates for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of $32.7 million in the first quarter of 2003. Application by PLP of equity accounting for its share of IMC Phosphates impact of adoption of SFAS No. 143 resulted in
a decrease in PLPs Investment in IMC Phosphates and a charge for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle that increased PLPs Loss and Partners deficit by $13.6 million in the first quarter of 2003. For further
information, see Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of IMC Phosphates Form 10-K included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules and

Due to IMC
Global Inc.



IMC charges an administrative fee of $6.0
million per year to PLP. In addition, IMC also charges to PLP the cost of all retiree medical costs that IMC pays on behalf of PLP. Although payment of these charges is due immediately, IMC has not demanded payment.

PLP has two separate
credit agreements with IMC (IMC Agreements). One agreement is a demand note for up to $300.0 million and bears interest at a variable rate, based on LIBOR plus one percent, which was 2.1875 percent as of December 31, 2003, while the other agreement
is an 8.75 percent demand note for up to $150.0 million. Interest under the IMC Agreements is payable quarterly. PLP had borrowed $268.3 million and $150.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2003 and $237.6 million and $150.0 million,
respectively, as of December 31, 2002 under the IMC Agreements. IMC has advised PLP that it does not intend to demand payment on the IMC Agreements prior to January 1, 2005. The IMC Agreements evidencing the obligations to IMC have been classified
as long-term.



Non-affiliate long-term debt has provisions
that would allow PLP to redeem this debt. On December 31, 2003, the estimated fair value of non-affiliate long-term debt described above was approximately $9.6 million less than the carrying amount of such debt. The fair value was estimated based on
each debt instruments market price as of December 31, 2003.



IMC entered into a senior secured credit facility (Credit Facility) on May 17, 2001. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, as amended and restated, IMC and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, may borrow up to
approximately $470.0 million. The Credit Facility consisted of a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) of up to $210.0 million available for revolving credit loans and letters of credit as well as a term loan facility (Term Loan
Facility) of $258.3 million. Concurrent with the closing of the Credit Facility, IMC issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10.875 percent senior notes due 2008 (Seven Year Notes) and $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.25
percent senior notes due 2011 (Ten Year Notes). On November 2, 2001, IMC issued an additional $100.0 million of the Ten Year Notes (November Note Offering). On December 10, 2002, IMC issued an additional $117.5 million of the Ten Year Notes
(December Note Offering and together with the Seven Year Notes, Ten Year Notes and the November Note Offering, Notes). Proceeds of the December Note Offering were $124.9 million, net of underwriting discount and excluding accrued interest, and were
used: (i) to redeem all of IMCs remaining $98.3 million of the 6.50 percent senior notes due August 1, 2003 in January 2003; (ii) pay related fees and expenses; and (iii) for general corporate purposes. The indentures under which the Notes
were issued contain covenants that limit certain matters. In addition, prior to the time that the Notes receive an investment grade rating from both Standard & Poors Ratings Group as well as Moodys Investors Services Inc. and
the fall-away event is satisfied, covenants contained in the indentures limit IMCs ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, pay dividends on, redeem or repurchase IMCs capital stock. If IMC
experiences specific kinds of changes of control prior to the fall-away event, holders of the Notes will have the right to require IMC to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 101 percent of the principal amount thereon,
together with any accrued or unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

##### Table of Contents

The Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on May 17, 2006 while the Term Loan Facility is
scheduled to mature on November 17, 2006. If IMC does not refinance and repay in full all of the 7.625 percent Senior Notes due 2005 and 6.55 percent Senior Notes due 2005 (2005 Senior Notes) with proceeds from the issuance of permitted debt
securities prior to October 15, 2004, then the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facilities will mature on October 15, 2004. Permitted Debt Securities are defined in IMCs Credit Facility to mean unsecured debt securities issued by IMC that (i)
mature later than, and do not require any amortization or similar scheduled principal payments prior to, May 31, 2007, and (ii) have terms and conditions (other than with respect to interest rates and redemption premiums) no less favorable to IMC
and the lenders than those of the Notes. In 2003 IMC refinanced $413.5 million of the 2005 Senior Notes. As of December 31, 2003 a total of $36.5 million of the 2005 Senior Notes remained outstanding ($9.6 million of the 6.55 percent and $26.9
million of the 7.625 percent). There can be no assurance that IMC will be able to either refinance the 2005 Senior Notes or obtain an amendment to its Credit Facility removing requirement to refinance. IMC is seeking to obtain certain amendments to
the Credit Facility, primarily to amend the requirement to refinance the remaining 2005 Senior Notes prior to October 15, 2004, and also, among other things, modifying financial ratio covenant levels for 2004. IMC is seeking the ability to repay
approximately $10.0 million of the 2005 Senior Notes at maturity in January 2005 and to extend the date by which it must refinance the remaining balance of the 2005 Senior Notes to March 2005. In order to obtain the amendment pertaining specifically
to the extension of the maturity date, IMC must obtain unanimous consent from the participants in the Credit Facility. The other amendments, including the modifying of covenant levels, require only a majority vote of the participants in the Credit
Facility.



Prior to the maturity date of the Revolving Credit
Facility, funds may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility without premium or penalty. Amounts repaid in respect of the Term Loan Facility may not be reborrowed.



As of December 31, 2003, IMC had no outstanding borrowings under the
Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2003 totaled $82.4 million, $1.5 million of which do not reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2003, the net available additional
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $129.1 million. In 2003, repayments of $2.8 million of borrowings resulted in an outstanding balance of $258.3 million under the Term Loan Facility as of December 31, 2003.



The Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of IMCs direct
and indirect domestic subsidiaries, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, as well as by certain direct and indirect foreign subsidiaries. The Credit Facility is secured by: (i) a pledge of certain equity interests and intercompany debt held by IMC and
the subsidiary guarantors in their subsidiaries; (ii) a security interest in accounts receivable and inventory; and (iii) mortgages on certain of IMCs potash mining and production facilities, with a net book value of $290.2 million as of
December 31, 2003. The guarantees by PLP and IMC Phosphates are limited by the amount of existing intercompany debt owed by such entities to IMC and its other subsidiaries. Any payments under such guarantees would constitute a corresponding
repayment of such intercompany debt.



The Credit Facility
requires IMC to meet certain financial tests, including, but not limited to, a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum ratio of the sum of certain secured obligations as of any
date to the collateral coverage amount (as defined in the Credit Facility). Certain of such tests were amended on February 21, 2003 (February Amendment). Among other things, the February Amendment reduced the maximum permitted aggregate annual
amount of capital expenditures, joint venture investments and certain monetary acquisitions that IMC and its subsidiaries may make to $160.0 million for 2003 and $250.0 million thereafter. In addition, the maximum aggregate monetary acquisition
consideration for certain types of future business acquisitions was limited to $10.0 million. The February Amendment also modified the existing limitations on indebtedness to allow for a new secured financing up to $55.0 million, which was completed
in May 2003. IMC was in compliance with the provisions of the Credit Facility as amended by the February Amendment throughout 2003. Interest rates associated with the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility vary depending upon
IMCs leverage ratio. With respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, interest on

this loan is calculated at either prime plus 150.0 to 225.0 basis points or LIBOR plus 250.0 to 325.0
basis points (depending on IMCs leverage ratio). Interest on loans under the Term Loan Facility is calculated at either prime plus 275.0 to 300.0 basis points or LIBOR plus 375.0 to 400.0 basis points. Based on the amended pricing, the
Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 325.0 basis points and LIBOR plus 400.0 basis points, respectively, as of December 31, 2003, which reflects a 25.0 basis point increase as a result of the February
Amendment.



The Notes are guaranteed by the same subsidiaries
of IMC that guaranteed the New Credit Facility, except MP Co. which has been designated as an unrestricted subsidiary and is, therefore, not a guarantor of the Notes. MP Co. has immaterial assets and income and is the managing general partner of IMC
Phosphates.



|4. | PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
|-- | ------------------------------------------



PLP has certain non-contributory pension plans for former employees. Benefits are based on a combination of years of service and compensation levels,
depending on the plan. Generally, contributions to the plans are made to meet minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.



PLP also provides certain health care benefit plans for certain retired employees. The plans may be either contributory or
non-contributory and contain other cost-sharing features, such as deductibles and coinsurance. The plans are ÿnfounded. Employees are not vested and such benefits are subject to change. Certain changes were made to the Freeport McMoRan Inc.
(FTX) retiree medical program during 2003 as approved by IMCs Board of Directors. The retiree medical program for certain FTX retirees age 65 and over was terminated effective January 1, 2004. The retiree medical program for certain FTX
retirees under age 65 will end at age 65.



Any amendments,
modifications, or termination of the plans in the future will require the approval of the Board of Directors of PRP.



The pension plans assets consist mainly of domestic corporate equity securities, United States (U.S.) government securities, corporate debt
securities, international equity securities, real estate investment funds and units of participation in a collective short-term investment fund and private equity funds. The weighted-average asset allocation of the pension plans assets as of
December 31 were:

|                  |  |      |   |  |      |  



The approach used to
develop the long-term rate of return combines an analysis of historical performance, the drivers of investment performance by asset class, and current economic fundamentals. For returns, PLP utilized a building block approach starting with inflation
expectations and added an expected real return to arrive at a long-term nominal expected return for each asset class. Long-term expected real returns are derived in the context of future expectations of the U.S. Treasury real yield curve.

In measuring the
postretirement benefit obligations, a 9.0 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered pre-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.0 percent in 2007 and thereafter; and a 9.5 percent annual rate of
increase in the per capita cost of covered post-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.5 percent in 2007 and thereafter.



In measuring the postretirement net benefit costs, a 10.0 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered pre-65 health care benefits
was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.0 percent in 2008 and thereafter; and a 10.5 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered post-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.5 percent in
2008 and thereafter.



PLP estimates that contributions to the
pension plan will be $1.4 million in 2004. Contributions made for other benefits are not expected to exceed $7.6 million for 2004.

|6. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
|-- | -----------------------------



Environmental Matters



PLP and IMC Phosphates have contingent environmental liabilities that arise principally from three sources: (i) facilities currently or formerly owned by
PLP, IMC Phosphates or their predecessors; (ii) facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities; and (iii) third-party Superfund and state equivalent sites.



31



---

##### Table of Contents

At facilities currently or formerly owned by PLP, IMC Phosphates or their corporate predecessors,
including FTX, the historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal nutrients and additives as well as by-product or process tailings have resulted in soil, surface water and groundwater contamination. Spills or other
releases of regulated substances have occurred previously at these facilities, and potentially could occur in the future, possibly requiring PLP or IMC Phosphates to undertake or fund cleanup. In some instances, PLP or IMC Phosphates have agreed,
pursuant to consent orders or agreements with the appropriate governmental agencies, to undertake certain investigations, which currently are in progress, to determine whether remedial action may be required to address contamination. At other
locations, PLP or IMC Phosphates have entered into consent orders or agreements with appropriate governmental agencies to perform required remedial activities that will address identified site conditions. Taking into consideration established
accruals, expenditures for these known conditions currently are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on PLPs or IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. However, material expenditures
by PLP or IMC Phosphates could be required in the future to remediate the contamination at these or at other current or former sites.



On March 28, 2001, and again on April 25, 2001, plaintiffs from Pensacola, Florida filed class-action lawsuits against Agrico Chemical Company (Agrico), a
subsidiary of PLP and a number of unrelated defendants (First action- Samples et al. vs. Conoco Inc. et al., Second Action- Williams et al. vs. Conoco Inc., both in the Circuit Court of the First Judicial Circuit, Escambia
County Florida). Although IMC was initially a defendant in the Williams case, on July 31, 2003 plaintiffs filed a voluntary dismissal of IMC without prejudice. The complainants in these cases seek damages in an unspecified amount purportedly arising
from releases to groundwater occurring at the Agrico Superfund site in Pensacola, Florida. As a division of Conoco Inc. (Conoco) and then as a subsidiary of The Williams Companies, Agrico owned and operated this facility for a number of years to
produce crop nutrients and crop nutrient-related materials. The Samples case primarily seeks unspecified compensation for alleged diminution in property value, loss of use of groundwater, restoration costs, unjust enrichment and other
damages. On February 19, 2003, plaintiffs filed a motion to amend their complaint in Samples to seek punitive damages. That motion is still pending with the court. The Williams action asserts a state law claim seeking medical
monitoring as a result of the releases to groundwater. Pre-trial proceedings have occurred in both cases. A trial date of July 2004 has been set in the Samples matter, but no trial date has been set in the Williams case. PLP intends to
vigorously contest these actions and to seek any indemnification to which PLP may be entitled. Under Superfund consent decrees, Conoco and The Williams Companies have completed soil stabilization and capping at this site and are continuing to
conduct groundwater monitoring. Pursuant to an indemnification agreement with PLP, The Williams Companies has assumed responsibility for any on-site remedial costs that Agrico might incur. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of either
case and it is possible that an adverse outcome could be material, PLP believes that it has substantial defenses and management is of the opinion that the ultimate disposition of these cases should not have a material adverse impact on PLPs
business or financial condition.



Conoco has filed two
separate actions against Agrico seeking a declaratory judgment under the 1972 agreement whereby Conoco divested its interests in Agrico. The first claim, filed on June 13, 2002 against Agrico, PLP, IMC and IMC Global Operations Inc. (IMC Parties)
and other unrelated defendants, concerns a former fertilizer manufacturing facility in Charleston, South Carolina (Ashepoo Site). (Conoco vs. Agrico Chemical Company et al., District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma). Conoco
alleged breach of contract for indemnification and seeks declaratory judgment and unspecified reimbursement for costs expended by Conoco to investigate and remediate alleged contamination at the Ashepoo Site. On October 22, 2002, the court issued an
order dismissing the IMC Parties because the court lacked jurisdiction to hear these claims. The court denied Conocos motion for reconsideration on June 6, 2003. Conoco has taken an appeal of right to the Court of Appeals. IMC intends to
vigorously oppose this appeal and, if necessary, the underlying action and to seek any indemnification or other counterremedies to which it may be entitled.

The second claim, filed solely against Agrico on January 24, 2003, alleges breach of contract for
indemnification and seeks declaratory judgment and unspecified damages for costs expended to investigate and remediate alleged contamination at the Fogg-West property in Cleveland, Ohio (Fogg-West Site) (Conoco vs. Agrico Chemical Company et
al., Circuit Court of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit, Lake County, Illinois). Conoco (or a corporate predecessor or affiliate) owned and operated the Fogg-West Site for an unknown period of time to produce fertilizer and fertilizer-related
materials. After deconstructing improvements on the Fogg-West Site, Conoco sold the Fogg-West Site to Agrico, then a subsidiary of The Williams Companies, in 1972. Agrico sold the property to Fogg-West in 1973. On April 23, 2003, Agrico filed a
motion for summary judgment arguing that, under the sales agreement for purchase of the Fogg-West Site, Agrico did not assume all responsibility for Fogg-West Site remediation, nor did Agrico indemnify Conoco for such remedial costs. The court
agreed, granting summary judgment in favor of Agrico on October 15, 2003. Conoco has appealed this ruling. PLP continues to believe that it has substantial defenses to this claim and intends to vigorously contest the appeal in this action and to
seek any indemnification or other counterremedies to which it may be entitled.



Superfund and equivalent state statutes impose liability without regard to fault or to the legality of a partys conduct on certain categories of persons who are considered to have contributed to the release of
hazardous substances into the environment. Under Superfund, or its various state analogues, one party may, under certain circumstances, be required to bear more than its proportionate share of cleanup costs at a site where it has
liability if payments cannot be obtained from other responsible parties. Currently, PLP or IMC Phosphates are involved or concluding involvement at less than seven Superfund or equivalent state sites. PLPs and IMC Phosphates remedial
liability from these sites, either alone or in the aggregate, currently is not expected to have a material adverse effect on PLPs or IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. As more information is obtained regarding these sites
and the potentially responsible parties involved, this expectation could change.



PLP and IMC Phosphates believe that, pursuant to several indemnification agreements, they are entitled to at least partial, and in many instances complete, indemnification for the costs that may be expended by PLP or
IMC Phosphates to remedy environmental issues at certain facilities. These agreements address issues that resulted from activities occurring prior to PLPs or IMC Phosphates acquisition of facilities or businesses from parties including
ARCO (BP); Conoco; Conserv; Kerr-McGee Inc.; PPG Industries, Inc.; The Williams Companies and certain other private parties. PLP and IMC Phosphates have already received and anticipate receiving amounts pursuant to the indemnification agreements for
certain of their expenses incurred to date as well as future anticipated expenditures.



Other



Most of IMC
Phosphates export sales of phosphate crop nutrients are marketed through Phosphate Chemicals Export Association (PhosChem). As a member, IMC Phosphates is, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, contractually obligated to reimburse
PhosChem for its pro rata share of any operating expenses or other liabilities incurred. The reimbursements are made through reductions to members cash receipts from PhosChem.



IMC Phosphates has $119.8 million of non-current liabilities for reclamation activities, phosphogypsum stack (Gypstack)
closure and water treatment in its Florida and Louisiana operations, where to obtain necessary permits, it must either pass a test of financial strength or provide credit support, typically surety bonds or financial guarantees. As of December 31,
2003 IMC Phosphates had $84.4 million in surety bonds outstanding which mature over the course of 2004, and met the financial strength test for the remaining portion of such additional liabilities. In connection with the outstanding surety bonds,
IMC Phosphates, through IMC, has posted $40.0 million of collateral in the form of letters of credit. There can be no assurance that IMC Phosphates can continue to pass such tests of financial strength or to purchase surety bonds on the same terms
and conditions. However, IMC Phosphates anticipates that it will be able to satisfy applicable credit support requirements without disrupting normal business operations.



The State of Florida has begun formulating new financial assurance responsibility rules for closure and long-term care of
Gypstacks. Such rules likely will become effective in 2004 and are expected to include more stringent financial tests than the current rules, along with requirements that closure cost estimates include the cost of treating Gypstack water. IMC
Phosphates currently recognizes both Gypstack closure costs and Gypstack water treatment costs as liabilities in accordance with SFAS No.143.

In addition, IMC Phosphates has granted a mortgage on approximately 22,000 previously mined acres of land
in Florida with a net book value of approximately $14.0 million as security for certain reclamation costs in the event that an option granted to a third party to purchase the mortgaged land is not exercised.



In 2003 and 2001, PLP increased accruals for estimated environmental
litigation related to non-operating facilities by $2.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The charges were included in Other expense, net.



Actions challenging the PLP Unit Exchange



On December 23, 2003, IMC announced that it was considering making the PLP unit exchange described below in Note 7. On December 30, 2003, Martin Weber
v. J. Reid Porter, et. al., a purported class action lawsuit was filed in Delaware Chancery Court claiming that IMC, PRP, the directors of PRP and PLP breached their fiduciary duties to PLPs public limited partners as a consequence of the
announcement on December 23, 2003 that [IMC] had offered to acquire all of the Partnership units not held by [IMC] and its affiliates. The lawsuit also asserted that The proposed acquisition is an attempt by [IMC] to unfairly
aggrandize itself at the expense of [PLPs] public limited partners and that The proposed acquisition will, for inadequate consideration, deny plaintiff and the other members of the class their right to share proportionately in the
future success of [PLP] and its valuable assets, while permitting [IMC] to benefit wrongly from the transaction. The plaintiff, on behalf of the class of all unitholders of PLP (except for the defendants and their affiliates) is seeking, among
other things, to enjoin the transaction or, to the extent that the transaction is consummated, to rescind the transaction, and monetary damages in an unspecified amount.



On January 16, 2004, M. A. Metropole v. J. Reid Porter, et. al., a purported class action lawsuit was filed in
Delaware Chancery Court against IMC, PRP and the directors of PRP, each individually as a conspirator and aider and abettor and, in the case of the directors, in their capacity as directors and/or officers of PRP. The complaint asserted that the
defendants breached their fiduciary duties to PLPs public limited partners as a consequence of the announcement on January 15, 2004 by IMCs Board of Directors that it had authorized IMC management to communicate a proposal to PLP to
acquire all PLPs publicly held units at a price that, according to the plaintiff, is materially inadequate giving due consideration to PLPs growth and anticipated operating results, net asset value and future profitability. The lawsuit
further asserts that (a) the intrinsic value of the units of [PLP] is materially in excess of the $2.15 per unit being proposed, giving due consideration to the possibilities of growth and profitability of [PLP in] light of its business,
earnings and earnings power, present and future; (b) the $2.15 per unit price is inadequate and is a discount to the present market value of [PLPs] units; and (c) the $2.15 per unit price is not the result of arms-length negotiations,
but was fixed arbitrarily by [PRP] to cap the market price of [PLPs] units, as part of a plan for the defendants to obtain complete ownership of [PLPs] assets and business at the lowest possible price. The plaintiff, on
behalf of the class of all unitholders in PLP (except for the defendants and their affiliates) is seeking, among other things, to enjoin the transaction or, to the extent that the transaction is consummated, to rescind the transaction, and monetary
damages in an unspecified amount.



On January 22, 2004,
Sidney Resnick v. Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership, et. al., a purported class action lawsuit was filed in Delaware Chancery Court claiming that IMC, PRP, the directors of PRP and PLP breached their fiduciary duties to
PLPs public limited unitholders as a consequence of the announcement on January 15, 2004 that IMC had made a proposal to acquire all of the outstanding units of PLP that IMC did not already own. The lawsuit also asserted that The
Transaction will benefit defendants at the expense and to the detriment of PLPs unitholders, who will be deprived of their equity investment and benefits including, among other things, the expected growth of PLP, that [PRPs]
directors have clear and material conflicts of interest and are acting to better the interests of IMC at the expense of PLPs unitholders and that The Transactionrepresents an effort by defendants to aggrandize their financial
position and interests at the expense, and to the detriment, of the members of the Class. The plaintiff, on behalf of the class of all unitholders of PLP (except for the defendants and their affiliates) is seeking, among other things, to
enjoin the transaction or, to the extent that the transaction is consummated, to rescind the transaction, and monetary damages in an unspecified amount.



On February 9, 2004 the Delaware Chancery Court for the County of Newcastle approved an Order of Consolidation consolidating the Weber, M.A. Metropole
and Resnick actions into a single action, In Re Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership Litigation (C.A. No. 145-N) and ordering that the plaintiffs in all three actions file a single consolidated amended complaint.

On February 9, 2004, Magnus E. Olsen and Jean E. Olsen v. J. Reid Porter, et.al., a purported
class action lawsuit was filed in Delaware Chancery Court claiming that IMC, PRP and PLP breached their fiduciary duties to PLPs public limited unitholders as a consequence of the announcement on January 15, 2004 that IMC had made a proposal
to acquire all of the outstanding units of PLP that IMC did not already own. The lawsuit also asserted that Under IMCs proposal, public unit holders would be forced out at a significant discount by their disloyal fiduciaries[at a
price] without arms-length negotiation and that since Four of the seven members of the PRP board of directors are employed in high-ranking positions at IMCthe PRP-GP board suffers from debilitating conflict in fairly considering
the proposed Transaction. The plaintiff, on behalf of the class of all unitholders of PLP is seeking, among other things, to enjoin the transaction or, to the extent that the transaction is consummated, to rescind the transaction, and monetary
damages in an unspecified amount.



It is anticipated that the
Olsen action will be consolidated into the In Re Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership Litigation discussed above.



IMC, PRP and PLP believe these unitholder claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against these lawsuits.



|7. | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
|-- | -----------------



In December 2003, IMC and PLP jointly announced that IMC was considering making a proposal to merge an affiliate of IMC with PLP, with each publicly held
partnership unit in PLP being converted into the right to receive 0.2 shares of IMC common stock (PLP unit exchange). In addition, IMC and PLP announced that Alpine Capital, L.P., Keystone, Inc. and The Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Foundation
(collectively, the largest public holders of PLP units) had agreed to support such a transaction. In January 2004, IMC presented the PLP unit exchange to the Board of Directors of PRP. On March 1, 2004, IMC and PLP announced that the Board of
Directors of PRP had unanimously approved the PLP unit exchange, and recommended that unitholders vote to approve the PLP unit exchange. The merger agreement relating to the PLP unit exchange is expected to be signed shortly, following the final
approval by the Board of Directors of IMC. Such approval is expected in the near future. The PLP unit exchange will be subject to certain conditions, including among other things, necessary regulatory approvals, action by the unitholders of PLP, and
other conditions which are customary for transactions of this nature involving publicly traded companies. The PLP unit exchange is not conditioned on the consummation of IMCs combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition referred to below. If the
combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition is consummated, and IMCs common stock is converted into the right to receive common stock of the newly formed company, then each former publicly held PLP unit will be converted into the right to receive
0.2 shares of common stock of the newly created company.



In
January 2004, IMC signed a definitive agreement with Cargill, Incorporated (Cargill) to combine IMCs and Cargills Crop Nutrition businesses to create a new, publicly traded company (Newco). The combination will be effected by the
contribution by Cargill to Newco of equity interests in entities owning all or substantially all of the assets, liabilities and obligations of the Cargill Crop Nutrition businesses, in exchange for the issuance by Newco of shares of common stock and
Class B common stock to Cargill. In addition, as part of the combination, a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into IMC, with IMC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. In the merger, each outstanding share of
IMCs common stock and preferred stock will be converted into one share of Newco common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. Cargill will own approximately 66.5 percent of Newcos common stock and IMCs common stockholders will
own approximately 33.5 percent of Newcos common stock. The combination is subject to regulatory approval in the U.S., Brazil, Canada, China and several other countries; the approval of IMCs stockholders; the completion of the PLP unit
exchange; and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Subject to completion of the closing conditions contained in the definitive agreement, IMC anticipates the transaction will close in the summer of 2004.



The terms of the preferred stock of Newco into which shares of IMCs
preferred stock will be converted in the merger will be substantially identical to the terms of IMCs preferred stock, but the Newco preferred stock will also have the right to vote on all matters submitted to the vote of Newcos common
stockholders. The Newco preferred stock will carry one vote per share and will vote together as a single class with the common stock of Newco.

The agreement with Cargill restricts IMC from taking certain actions without Cargills consent until
the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, as follows: (i) IMC and its subsidiaries are prohibited from incurring or assuming any long-term or short-term debt or issuing any debt securities (except as
permitted by the terms of the Credit Facility and the indentures governing IMCs notes); (ii) cash dividends on IMCs common stock are limited to regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.02 per share per quarter; (iii) dividends on
IMCs preferred stock are limited to $0.9375 per share per quarter; (iv) IMC and its subsidiaries may not issue or sell capital stock except in limited circumstances that include, among others, the issuance of stock in connection with the
conversion of PLP units into common stock of IMC as described above and sales pursuant to existing benefit plans; and (v) IMC and its subsidiaries may not repurchase IMCs capital stock except in limited circumstances. IMCs stockholder
rights plan was amended on January 26, 2004 so that the preferred stock purchase rights will not become exercisable as a result of the acquisition of IMCs common stock pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the definitive agreement
for the combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition.

earnings (loss) or partners capital.



The 2003 10-K,
including information that is being added or amended by the Amendment, does not reflect any events or developments occurring subsequent to March 12, 2004, the date on which the 2003 10-K was filed. For a discussion of events and developments
occurring subsequent to March 12, 2004, see IMC Phosphates Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, each as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto on Form 10-Q/A.



Part I.



Item 1. Business hereby is amended to
read in its entirety as follows:



Item 1. Business.



IMC Phosphates, is one of the worlds largest and lowest cost producers, marketers and distributors of phosphate crop
nutrients and animal feed ingredients, with operations in central Florida and on the Mississippi River in Louisiana. IMC Phosphates business includes the mining and sale of phosphate rock and the production, marketing and distribution of
phosphate crop nutrients and animal feed ingredients. IMC Phosphates was formed as a joint venture partnership in July 1993 when PLP and IMC contributed their respective phosphate crop nutrients businesses to IMC Phosphates. IMC Phosphates is 43.5
percent owned by PLP and 56.5 percent by IMC. PRP-GP LLC (PRP) and FMRP Inc., which are wholly owned subsidiaries of IMC, own 51.58 percent and .02 percent, respectively, of the outstanding PLP limited partnership units. As a result, IMCs
total interest in IMC Phosphates is approximately 78.9 percent.



IMC Phosphates Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement (Partnership Agreement) provides that the partnership will remain in existence until June 30, 2076. The partnership could be terminated earlier than June 30, 2076 in accordance
with provisions of the Partnership Agreement that provide for termination in connection with matters such as bankruptcy of any partner; dissolution at the election of the partners; occurrence of any event that makes it unlawful to carry on the
business of the partnership or to carry it on in the partnership; a determination by IMC Phosphates MP Co. (MP Co.), which is the managing general partner of IMC Phosphates and a wholly owned subsidiary of IMC and PLP, that the partnership cannot be
operated in a manner consistent with achieving the partnerships business other than in a manner inconsistent with preserving the partnership status of PLP for federal income tax purposes; and judicial or other dissolution in accordance with
Delaware law. The partnership could also be continued beyond December 31, 2076 by vote of a majority interest of the partners in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement, or if IMC and PLP both elect to exercise their option to
purchase the interest of the other in the partnership. See OTHER MATTERS - Relationship between IMC Phosphates and IMC; Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations; Notes 1 and 8 of the Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Part III, Item 10, Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant; and Part
III, Item 11, Executive Compensation of the 2003 10-K for additional important information concerning the Partnership Agreement, the relationship between IMC Phosphates and IMC, distributions to partners and other matters.



IMC Phosphates is a leading United States (U.S.) miner of phosphate rock,
one of the primary raw materials used in the production of concentrated phosphates, with approximately 18 million tons of capacity, as well as a leading U.S. producer of concentrated phosphates. IMC Phosphates is one of the worlds three
largest producers and

marketers of phosphate and potash based animal feed ingredients with a total annual capacity approaching
one million tons. IMC Phosphates mines and related operations are located in central Florida, while the facilities that produce concentrated phosphates and animal feed ingredients are located in central Florida and Louisiana. Such mines,
concentrates plants and related facilities are owned or leased principally by IMC Phosphates. MP Co. manages the operations of IMC Phosphates. MP Co. is a wholly owned subsidiary of IMC and PLP. Sales, marketing, customer service, distribution,
administrative and other functions are in some cases furnished to IMC Phosphates and MP Co. by IMC and its subsidiaries that include IMC USA Holdings Inc., IMC USA Inc. LLC and IMC Global Operations Inc.



Although IMC Phosphates sells phosphate rock to other crop nutrient and
animal feed ingredient manufacturers, it primarily uses phosphate rock internally. Domestically, IMC Phosphates sells its concentrated phosphates to crop nutrient manufacturers, distributors and retailers. Virtually all of IMC Phosphates
export sales are marketed through the Phosphates Chemicals Export Association (PhosChem), a Webb-Pomerene Act organization. IMC Phosphates also uses concentrated phosphates and potash internally for the production of animal feed ingredients, which
are supplied to poultry and livestock markets in North America, Latin America and Asia. IMC Phosphates operates in a highly competitive global market.



In December 2003, IMC and PLP jointly announced that IMC was considering making a proposal to merge an affiliate of IMC with PLP, with each publicly held
partnership unit in PLP being converted into the right to receive 0.2 shares of IMC common stock (PLP unit exchange). In addition, IMC and PLP announced that Alpine Capital, L.P., Keystone, Inc. and The Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Foundation
(collectively, the largest public holders of PLP units) had agreed to support such a transaction. In January 2004, IMC presented the PLP unit exchange to the Board of Directors of PRP. In March 2004, IMC and PLP announced that the Board of Directors
of PRP had unanimously approved the PLP unit exchange, and recommended that unitholders vote to approve the PLP unit exchange. The merger agreement relating to the PLP unit exchange is expected to be signed shortly, following the final approval by
the Board of Directors of IMC. Such approval is expected in the near future. The PLP unit exchange will be subject to certain conditions, including among other things, necessary regulatory approvals, action by the unitholders of PLP, and other
conditions which are customary for transactions of this nature involving publicly traded companies. The PLP unit exchange is not conditioned on the consummation of IMCs combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition referred to below. If the
combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition is consummated, and IMCs common stock is converted into the right to receive common stock of the newly formed company, then each former publicly held PLP unit will be converted into the right to receive
0.2 shares of common stock of the newly created company.



In
January 2004, IMC signed a definitive agreement with Cargill, Incorporated (Cargill) to combine IMCs and Cargills Crop Nutrition businesses to create a new, publicly traded company (Newco). The combination will be effected by the
contribution by Cargill to Newco of equity interests in entities owning all or substantially all of the assets, liabilities and obligations of the Cargill Crop Nutrition businesses, in exchange for the issuance by Newco of shares of common stock and
Class B common stock to Cargill. In addition, as part of the combination, a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into IMC, with IMC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. In the merger, each outstanding share of
IMCs common stock and preferred stock will be converted into one share of Newco common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. Cargill will own approximately 66.5 percent of Newcos common stock and IMCs common stockholders will
own approximately 33.5 percent of Newcos common stock. The combination is subject to regulatory approval in the U.S., Brazil, Canada, China and several other countries; the approval of IMCs stockholders; the completion of the PLP unit
exchange; and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Subject to completion of the closing conditions contained in the definitive agreement, IMC anticipates the transaction will close in the summer of 2004.



BUSINESS OPERATIONS INFORMATION



The following discussion of business operations should be read in conjunction with the information contained in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K. For information on IMC Phosphates operations by geographic area, see Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

MP Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of IMC and PLP, manages the operations of IMC Phosphates. Subject to
the terms of the Partnership Agreement, (see OTHER MATTERS - Relationship Between IMC Phosphates and IMC for a discussion of the material terms) IMC, through MP Co., has the sole authority to make certain decisions
affecting IMC Phosphates, including authorizing certain capital expenditures for expansion; incurring certain indebtedness; approving significant acquisitions and dispositions; and determining certain other matters. IMC Phosphates operations
consist of its phosphate crop nutrients business and its animal feed ingredients business.



Net sales for IMC Phosphates were $1,335.7 million, $1,257.3 million and $1,171.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. IMC Phosphates is a leading U.S. producer of concentrated
phosphates with an annual capacity of approximately four million tons of phosphoric acid (P2O5)1. IMC Phosphates concentrated phosphate products are marketed worldwide to crop nutrient manufacturers, distributors and retailers.



IMC Phosphates facilities, which produce concentrated phosphates and animal feed phosphates, are located in central Florida and Louisiana. Its
annual capacity represents approximately 30 percent of total U.S. concentrated phosphate production capacity and approximately nine percent of world capacity. The Florida concentrated phosphate facilities consist of two plants: New Wales and South
Pierce. The New Wales complex is the second largest concentrated phosphate plant in the world with an estimated annual capacity of nearly two million tons of phosphoric acid (P2O5equivalent). New Wales
primarily produces two forms of concentrated phosphates and four forms of animal feed phosphates. Diammonium phosphate (DAP) and monoammonium phosphate (MAP, both granular and powdered) are the fertilizer derivatives, while Biofos®, Dynafos®, Monofos® and Multifos® are the animal feed derivatives. The South Pierce plant produces phosphoric acid, merchant grade phosphoric acid and granular triple superphosphate
(GTSP). Additionally, IMC Phosphates sources potassium raw materials from IMCs respective production facilities and markets Dyna-K®, Dyna-K White® and Dynamate® as potassium-based feed ingredients.



The Louisiana concentrated phosphate facilities consist of three plants: Uncle Sam, Faustina and Taft. The Uncle Sam plant produces phosphoric acid. The phosphoric acid is then shipped to the Faustina and Taft plants where it is used to
produce DAP and granular monoammonium phosphate (GMAP). The Faustina plant manufactures phosphoric acid, DAP, GMAP and ammonia. The Taft facility manufactures DAP and GMAP. Concentrated phosphate operations are managed to balance IMC
Phosphates output with customer needs. In response to then-current reduced market demand, IMC Phosphates suspended production at its Taft facility in July 1999 and suspended phosphoric acid production at its Faustina facility in November 1999.
From January 2001 until early August 2001, IMC Phosphates temporarily suspended its Uncle Sam phosphoric acid production as well as its Faustina DAP and GMAP production. In addition, from January 2001 until June 2001, IMC Phosphates temporarily
suspended its Faustina ammonia production. From June 2003 until early August 2003, IMC Phosphates temporarily suspended its Uncle Sam phosphoric acid production as well as its Faustina DAP, GMAP and ammonia production. The Taft facility and
Faustinas phosphoric acid production facilities remain temporarily idled.



Summarized below are descriptions of the principal raw materials used in the production of concentrated phosphates: phosphate rock, sulphur and ammonia.



Phosphate Rock



All of IMC Phosphates phosphate mines and related mining operations are located in central Florida. IMC Phosphates has four active mines, Kingsford,
Four Corners, Hopewell and Fort Green, and two planned future mines, Ona and Pine Level.

The phosphate deposits of Florida are of sedimentary origin and are part of a phosphate-bearing province
that extends from southern Florida north along the Atlantic coast into southern Virginia. IMC Phosphates active mines are primarily in what is known as the Bone Valley Member of the Peace River Formation in the Central Florida Phosphate
District, having their origin from reworking of the host Hawthorn Group of middle Miocene age. The southern portions of the Four Corners and Fort Green mines are in what is referred to as the Undifferentiated Peace River Formation, in which the Ona
and Pine Level mines would be located. Phosphate mining has been conducted in the Central Florida Phosphate District since the late 1800s. The potentially mineable portion of the Central Florida Phosphate District encompasses an area approximately
80 miles in length in a north-south direction and approximately 40 miles in width.



The map below shows the location of each of IMC Phosphates mines.

IMC Phosphates extracts phosphate ore
using large surface mining machines that it owns called draglines. Prior to extracting the ore, the draglines must first remove a ten to fifty foot layer of sandy overburden. IMC Phosphates then processes the ore at beneficiation plants
that it owns at each active mine where the ore goes through washing, screening, sizing and flotation processes designed to separate the phosphate rock from sands, clays and other foreign materials. Prior to commencing operations at either of
the planned future mines, IMC Phosphates would need to acquire new draglines or move existing draglines to the mines and, unless the beneficiation plant at an existing mine were used, construct a beneficiation plant.

In order to manage
its inventories, IMC Phosphates temporarily idled its mining operations in 2001 during the months of July and December. From late January 2003 through April 2003, IMC Phosphates temporarily idled its Fort Green mining operation in order to manage
its inventories. Although IMC Phosphates sells phosphate rock to other crop nutrient and animal feed ingredient manufacturers, it primarily uses phosphate rock internally in the production of concentrated phosphates. Tons used internally totaled
approximately 12 million, 12 million and 11 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, representing 73 percent, 70 percent and 69 percent, respectively, of total rock tons shipped. Rock shipments to customers totaled
approximately four million, five million and five million tons for each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



Reserves



IMC Phosphates estimates its reserves based upon exploration core drilling as well as technical and economic analyses to determine that reserves so
classified can be economically mined. Proven (measured) reserves are those resources of sufficient concentration to meet minimum physical, chemical and economic criteria related to IMC Phosphates current product standards and mining and
production practices. IMC Phosphates estimates of probable (indicated) reserves are based on information similar to that used for proven reserves, but sites for drilling are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced than for proven
reserves, although the degree of assurance is high enough to assume continuity between such sites. Proven reserves are determined using a minimum drill hole spacing of two sites per forty acre block. Probable reserves have less than two drill holes
per forty acre block, but geological data provides a high degree of assurance that continuity exists between sites.

##### Table of Contents

IMC Phosphates generally owns the reserves shown in the table above, with the only significant exceptions
being the Pine Level reserves, approximately 12.3 million of the tons shown for the Fort Green mine and the reserves referred to in note (d) to the above table. IMC Phosphates rights to approximately 109.2 million tons of the estimated
reserves shown for Pine Level are held pursuant to an option agreement that is described under Pine Level Property Reserves in Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data of this Form 10-K. The 12.3 million tons referred to above for the Fort Green mine are leased under a lease that IMC Phosphates has the right to extend through 2014 and for which IMC Phosphates has prepaid substantially all
royalties. IMC Phosphates rights to the reserves referred to in note (d) to the above table are held pursuant to mineral rights that expire in 2012, except for a portion that expire in 2017. In light of the long-term nature of its rights to
its reserves, IMC Phosphates expects to be able to mine all reported reserves that are not currently owned prior to termination or expiration of IMC Phosphates rights.



IMC Phosphates also owns or controls non-reserve phosphate materials at its mines. These non-reserve phosphate materials
have been delineated by appropriately spaced drilling and/or underground sampling to support a sufficient tonnage and average grade of product. Such non-reserve phosphate materials are mineralized deposits that may become economically recoverable.
However, additional geostatistical analyses, including further exploration, permitting and mining feasibility studies, changes in current market conditions, and/or changes in the mining technology currently used by IMC Phosphates, are required
before such deposits may be classified as reserves. The following table sets forth information concerning such non-reserve phosphate materials:

IMC Phosphates
preliminary analyses of these non-reserve phosphate materials indicate that they differ in physical and chemical characteristics from those historically mined by IMC Phosphates and are uneconomic under current market conditions using the mining
technology currently used by IMC Phosphates.



Sulphur



Sulphur is used at the New Wales, South Pierce, Uncle Sam and
(when producing phosphoric acid) Faustina plants to produce sulphuric acid primarily for use in IMC Phosphates production of phosphoric acid. Until June 2002, a significant portion of IMC Phosphates sulphur requirements was provided by
Freeport-McMoRan Sulphur LLC (FMS) under a supply agreement with IMC, while IMC Phosphates remaining sulphur requirements were provided by market contracts. In June 2002, IMC Phosphates completed the acquisition of the sulphur transportation
and terminaling assets of FMS through Gulf Sulphur Services Ltd., LLLP (Gulf Services), a 50-50 joint venture with Savage Industries Inc. Concurrently with this acquisition, and instead of purchasing a majority of its annual sulphur tonnage through
FMS, IMC Phosphates negotiated new supply agreements to

##### Table of Contents

purchase sulphur directly from recovered sulphur producers. Additionally, IMC, CF Industries, Inc. and
Cargill Fertilizer, Inc. have formed a separate joint venture to construct a facility for remelting sulphur for use at their respective Florida phosphate fertilizer operations. The remelt facility was expected to be operational in 2005, however the
three companies have slowed the development process until further discussions are held during 2004. The remelt facility would provide IMC Phosphates additional flexibility by allowing it to diversify and procure a portion of its sulphur from the
much larger and previously inaccessible offshore solid sulphur market.



Ammonia



IMC Phosphates ammonia needs
are supplied by its Faustina ammonia production facility and by world suppliers, primarily under annual and multi-year contracts. Production from the Faustina plant, which has an estimated annual capacity of 560,000 tons of anhydrous ammonia, is
principally used internally to produce certain concentrated phosphates. Ammonia for the New Wales plant and third party ammonia customers of IMC Phosphates is terminaled through an ammonia facility at Port Sutton, Florida that is leased by IMC
Phosphates for a term expiring in 2013 which IMC Phosphates may extend for up to five additional years. In connection with the sale of IMC Phosphates Port Sutton fertilizer and feed warehouse and marine export facility (Port Sutton) in
December 2003 that is adjacent to the Port Sutton ammonia facility, IMC Phosphates entered into an agreement with the buyer for the buyer to also operate the Port Sutton ammonia facility. The agreement expires in 2013 but may be extended by IMC
Phosphates for an unlimited number of additional five year terms, as long as the parties are entitled to operate the ammonia facility.



Sales and Marketing



Domestically, IMC Phosphates sells its concentrated phosphates to crop nutrient manufacturers, distributors and retailers. IMC Phosphates also uses
concentrated phosphates internally for the production of animal feed ingredients. Virtually all of IMC Phosphates export sales of phosphate crop nutrients are marketed through PhosChem, a Webb-Pomerene Act organization, which IMC administers
on behalf of itself and two other member companies. PhosChem believes that its sales represent approximately 41 percent of total U.S. exports of concentrated phosphates. The countries that account for the largest amount of PhosChems sales of
concentrated phosphates include China, Brazil, Australia and Japan. During 2003, IMC Phosphates concentrated phosphates exports to Asia were 34 percent of total shipments by volume, with China representing 35 percent of export shipments. IMC
Phosphates, with a strong brand position in a $1.0 billion feed ingredients global market, also supplies phosphate and potassium-based feed ingredients for poultry and livestock to markets in North America, Latin America and Asia.



The table below shows IMC Phosphates shipments of concentrated
phosphates in thousands of dry product tons, primarily DAP:

As of December 31,
2003, IMC Phosphates had contractual commitments for 2004 from non-affiliated customers for the shipment of approximately three million tons of concentrated phosphates and approximately five million tons of phosphate rock. IMC Phosphates also had
contractual commitments from non-affiliated customers for the shipment of phosphate feed and feed grade potassium products amounting to approximately 500,000 tons in 2004.



In connection with the Port Sutton sale, IMC Phosphates entered into an agreement with the buyer pursuant to which at least
70 percent (75 percent if the buyer meets certain customer requirements) of the bulk marine export requirements for DAP and MAP and 100 percent of the bulk marine export requirements for animal feed ingredients from New Wales will be shipped through
the Port Sutton facility and the buyers Port Manatee, Florida, warehouse and marine export facility. The agreement expires in 2013 but may be extended by IMC Phosphates for an unlimited number of additional five year terms.

Competition



IMC Phosphates operates in a highly competitive global market. Among the competitors in the global phosphate crop nutrient
market are domestic and foreign companies, as well as foreign government-supported producers. Phosphate crop nutrient producers compete primarily based on price and, to a lesser extent, product quality and innovation. Major integrated producers of
feed phosphates and feed grade potassium are located in the U.S., Europe and China. Many smaller producers are located in emerging markets around the world. Many of these smaller producers are not manufacturers of phosphoric acid and are required to
purchase this raw material on the open market. Competition in this global market is also driven by price, quality and service.



As one of the largest miners of phosphate rock in the U.S., and one of the worlds largest producers of concentrated phosphates, IMC Phosphates
enjoys an advantage over competitors as the scale of operations effectively reduces production costs per unit. IMC Phosphates is also vertically integrated to captively supply one of its key raw materials, phosphate rock, to its concentrated
phosphate production facilities. It also produces another raw material, ammonia, to captively supply its Faustina concentrates facility. As a 50 percent owner of Gulf Services, IMC Phosphates is well-positioned to ensure an adequate, flexible and
cost-effective supply of its third key raw material, sulphur.



With production facilities in both Central Florida near the Port of Tampa and in Louisiana on the Mississippi River, IMC Phosphates is logistically positioned to supply both domestic and international customers. In addition, those multiple
production points afford IMC Phosphates the flexibility to optimally balance supply and demand.



With no captive ammonia production in Florida, IMC Phosphates is subject to significant volatility in its purchase price of ammonia from world markets. In
addition, IMC Phosphates is subject to many environmental laws and regulations in the state of Florida that are often more stringent than those with which producers in other states or foreign countries must comply.



FACTORS AFFECTING DEMAND



IMC Phosphates results of operations historically have reflected the effects of several external factors, which are beyond its control and have in the past produced significant downward and upward swings in operating results. Revenues
are highly dependent upon conditions in the North American agriculture industry and can be affected by crop failure, changes in agricultural production practices, government policies and weather. Furthermore, IMC Phosphates business is
seasonal to the extent North American farmers and agricultural enterprises purchase more crop nutrient products during the spring and fall.



IMC Phosphates sells products throughout the world. Unfavorable changes in trade protection laws, policies and measures, and other regulatory
requirements affecting trade; unexpected changes in tax and trade treaties; strengthening or weakening of foreign economics as well as political relations with the U.S. may cause sales trends to customers in one or more foreign countries to differ
from sales trends in the U.S.



OTHER MATTERS



Environmental Health and Safety Matters



IMC Phosphates Program



IMC
Phosphates has adopted the following Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Policy (Policy):



As a key to IMC Phosphates success, IMC Phosphates is committed to the pursuit of excellence in health and safety and environmental stewardship. Every employee will strive to continuously improve IMC
Phosphates performance and to minimize adverse environmental, health and safety impacts. IMC Phosphates will proactively comply with all environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.



P-9

##### Table of Contents

This Policy is the cornerstone of IMC Phosphates comprehensive EHS management program (EHS
Program), which seeks to achieve sustainable, predictable and verifiable EHS performance. Key elements of the EHS Program include: (i) identifying and managing EHS risk; (ii) complying with legal requirements; (iii) improving IMC Phosphates
EHS procedures and protocols; (iv) educating employees regarding EHS obligations; (v) retaining and developing qualified professional EHS staff; (vi) evaluating facility conditions; (vii) evaluating and enhancing safe workplace behaviors; (viii)
performing audits; (ix) formulating EHS action plans; and (x) assuring management accountability. IMC conducts audits to verify that each facility has identified risks, achieved regulatory compliance, implemented continuous EHS improvement, and
incorporated EHS management systems into day-to-day business functions.



A critical focus of IMC Phosphates EHS Program is achieving compliance with the evolving myriad of international, federal, state, provincial and local EHS laws that govern IMC Phosphates production and
distribution of crop and animal nutrients. These EHS laws regulate or propose to regulate: (i) conduct of mining and production operations, including employee safety procedures; (ii) condition of IMC Phosphates facilities; (iii) management and
handling of raw materials; (iv) product content; (v) use of products by both IMC Phosphates and its customers; (vi) management and/or remediation of potential impacts to air, water quality and soil from IMC Phosphates operations; (vii)
disposal of waste materials; and (viii) reclamation of lands after mining. For any new regulatory programs that might be proposed, it is difficult to ascertain future compliance obligations or to estimate future costs until implementing regulations
have been finalized and definitive regulatory interpretations have been adopted. IMC Phosphates typically responds to such regulatory requirements at the appropriate time by implementing necessary modifications to facilities or to operating
procedures.



IMC Phosphates has expended, and anticipates that
it will continue to expend, substantial financial and managerial resources to comply with EHS standards. In 2004, environmental capital expenditures are expected to total approximately $33.5 million, primarily related to: (i) modification or
construction of wastewater treatment areas in Florida; (ii) construction, modification and closure projects associated with phosphogypsum stacks at the IMC Phosphates concentrates plants; (iii) upgrading of air pollution control equipment at
the concentrates plants; and (iv) capital projects associated with remediation of contamination at current or former operations. Additional expenditures for land reclamation activities will total approximately $26.0 million in 2004. In 2005, IMC
Phosphates expects environmental capital expenditures will be approximately $22.2 million and expenditures for land reclamation activities will be approximately $25.0 million. No assurance can be given that greater-than-anticipated EHS capital
expenditures or land reclamation expenditures will not be required in 2004 or in the future.



IMC Phosphates has recorded accounting accruals for certain contingent environmental liabilities and believes such accruals are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. IMC Phosphates records
accruals for environmental investigatory and non-capital remediation costs and for expenses associated with litigation when litigation has commenced or a claim or assessment has been asserted or is imminent, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome
is probable and the financial impact of such outcome is reasonably estimable. These accruals are adjusted quarterly for any changes in IMC Phosphates estimates of the future costs associated with these matters.



Product Requirements and Impacts



International, federal, state and provincial standards require IMC
Phosphates to register many of its products before these products can be sold. The standards also impose labeling requirements on these products and require IMC Phosphates to manufacture the products to formulations set forth on the labels. Various
environmental, natural resource and public health agencies continue to evaluate alleged health and environmental impacts that could arise from the handling and use of products such as those manufactured by IMC Phosphates. The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, the state of California, and The Fertilizer Institute in conjunction with the European Fertilizer Manufacturers Association have completed independent assessments of potential risks posed by crop nutrient materials. These
assessments concluded that when handled and used as intended,



P-10

##### Table of Contents

based on the available data, crop nutrient materials do not pose harm to human health or the environment.
Nevertheless, agencies could impose additional standards or regulatory requirements on the producing industries, including IMC Phosphates or its customers. It is the current opinion of management that the potential impact of any such standards on
the market for IMC Phosphates products, and the expenditures that might be necessary to meet any such standards, will not have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition.



Operating Requirements and Impacts



Permitting. IMC Phosphates holds numerous environmental, mining and
other permits or approvals authorizing operation at each of its facilities. IMC Phosphates ability to continue operations at a facility could be materially affected by a government agency decision to deny or delay issuing a new or renewed
permit or approval, to revoke or substantially modify an existing permit or approval, or to substantially change conditions applicable to a permit modification. In addition, expansion of IMC Phosphates operations or extension of operations into new
areas is predicated upon securing the necessary environmental or other permits or approvals, for instance, over the next several years, IMC Phosphates will be continuing its efforts to obtain permits in support of its anticipated Florida mining
operations at certain of IMC Phosphates properties, including Ona and Pine Level. These properties contain in excess of 100.0 million tons of phosphate rock reserves. For years, IMC Phosphates has successfully permitted mining properties and
anticipates that it will be able to permit these properties as well. In Florida, local community participation has become an important factor in the permitting process for mining companies. A denial of these permits or the issuance of permits with
cost-prohibitive conditions would prevent IMC Phosphates from mining at these properties and thereby have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition.



Reclamation Obligations.During its mining operations, IMC Phosphates
removes overburden and sand tailings in order to retrieve phosphate rock reserves. Once IMC Phosphates has finished mining in an area, it returns overburden and sand tailings and reclaims the area in accordance with approved reclamation plans and
applicable laws. IMC Phosphates has incurred and will continue to incur significant costs to fulfill its reclamation obligations. In the past, IMC Phosphates has established accruals to account for these reclamation expenses. On January 1, 2003, IMC
Phosphates adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143 Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. IMC Phosphates has since accounted for mandatory reclamation of phosphate mining land in accordance with this
accounting guidance. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2003 10-K for the impact of this accounting treatment.



Management of Residual Materials and Closure of Management Areas.Mining and processing of phosphate generates residual materials that must be managed both during the operation of the facility and upon facility closure. Phosphate clay residuals are deposited in clay settling ponds. Processing of phosphate rock
with sulphuric acid generates phosphogypsum that is stored in Phosphogypsum Stack Systems (Gypstacks).



During the life of the clay settling ponds and Gypstacks, IMC Phosphates has incurred and will continue to incur significant costs to manage its phosphate
residual materials in accordance with environmental laws and regulations and with permit requirements. Additional legal and permit requirements will take effect when these facilities are closed.



In the past, IMC Phosphates has established accruals to account for these
closure costs. As of January 1, 2003, the following closure costs are accounted for under SFAS No. 143: (i) costs for closure of Gypstacks in Florida and Louisiana at the end of their useful lives; and (ii) costs for treatment of acidic Gypstack
water to facilitate discharge of such waters pursuant to permits and to promote Gypstack closure. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2003 10-K
for the impact of this accounting treatment.



On February 23,
2004, during a routine inspection, IMC Phosphates detected a loss of process water in a section of its New Wales Facility Phase I lined Gypstack. IMC Phosphates review of the reasons for the loss is ongoing and IMC Phosphates has not yet
determined the actions or expenditures that may be required.

Financial Assurance.Separate from IMC Phosphates accounting treatment for reclamation and
closure liabilities, some jurisdictions in which IMC Phosphates operates have required it either to pass a test of financial strength or provide credit support, typically surety bonds or financial guarantees, to address phosphate mining reclamation
liabilities and closure liabilities for clay settling areas and Gypstacks. See Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, of the 2003 10-Kfor the amounts of such assurance maintained by IMC Phosphates and the impacts of such assurance.



The State of Florida has begun formulating new financial assurance rules for closure and long-term care of Gypstacks. Such rules likely will become
effective in 2004 and are expected to include more stringent financial tests than the current rules, along with requirements that closure cost estimates include the cost of treating Gypstack water. See Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and
Contractual Obligations in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the 2003 10-Kfor more detail.



Remedial Activities



The Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) imposes liability, without regard to fault or to the legality of a
partys conduct, on certain categories of persons who are considered to have contributed to the release of hazardous substances into the environment. Various states have enacted legislation that is analogous to the federal Superfund
program. Under Superfund, or its various state analogues, one party may, under certain circumstances, be required to bear more than its proportionate share of cleanup costs at a site where it has liability if payments cannot be obtained from other
responsible parties. Superfund or state analogues may impact IMC Phosphates at its current or former operations.



Remediation at IMC Phosphates Facilities. Many of IMC Phosphates formerly owned or current facilities have been in operation for a
number of years. The historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal nutrients and additives as well as by-product or process tailings at these facilities by IMC Phosphates and predecessor operators have resulted in
soil, surface water and groundwater impacts.



At many of these
facilities, spills or other releases of regulated substances have occurred previously and potentially could occur in the future, possibly requiring IMC Phosphates to undertake or fund cleanup efforts under Superfund or otherwise. In some instances,
IMC Phosphates has agreed, pursuant to consent orders or agreements with the appropriate governmental agencies, to undertake certain investigations, which currently are in progress, to determine whether remedial action may be required to address
site impacts. At other locations, IMC Phosphates has entered into consent orders or agreements with appropriate governmental agencies to perform required remedial activities that will address identified site conditions. Taking into account
established accruals, future expenditures for these known conditions currently are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. However, material
expenditures by IMC Phosphates could be required in the future to remediate the environmental impacts at these or at other current or former sites.



Remediation at Third-Party Facilities. Various third parties have alleged that IMC Phosphates historic operations have impacted neighboring
off-site areas or nearby third-party facilities. In some instances, IMC Phosphates has agreed, pursuant to orders from or agreements with appropriate governmental agencies or agreements with private parties, to undertake or fund investigations, some
of which currently are in progress, to determine whether remedial action, under Superfund or otherwise, may be required to address off-site impacts. IMC Phosphates remedial liability at these sites, either alone or in the aggregate, currently
is not expected to have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. As more information is obtained regarding these sites, this expectation could change.



Liability for Off-Site Disposal Locations. Currently, IMC Phosphates
is involved or concluding involvement for off-site disposal at less than five Superfund or equivalent state sites. Moreover, IMC Phosphates previously has entered into settlements to resolve its liability with regard to Superfund or equivalent state
sites. In some cases, such settlements have included reopeners, which could result in additional liability at such sites in the event of

newly discovered contamination or other circumstances. IMC Phosphates remedial liability at such
disposal sites, either alone or in the aggregate, currently is not expected to have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. As more information is obtained regarding these sites and the potentially
responsible parties involved, this expectation could change.



For further discussion of off-site remedial activities, see Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Employees



The individuals who perform services for IMC Phosphates are employed primarily by MP Co. This includes former employees of
PLP and IMC who were transferred to MP Co. when IMC Phosphates was formed. As of December 31, 2003, MP Co. had 2,972 employees. The work force consisted of 733 salaried employees, 2,239 hourly employees and no temporary or part-time employees. See
Relationship Between IMC Phosphates and IMC - Management and Ownership, for further detail.



Labor Relations



MP Co. has two collective bargaining agreements with affiliated local chapters of the same international union. As of December 31, 2003, approximately 90
percent of the hourly work force was covered under collective bargaining agreements. One agreement was re-negotiated during 2003. One agreement will expire in 2004. IMC Phosphates has not experienced a significant work stoppage in recent years and
considers its employee relations to be good.



Relationship Between IMC Phosphates and IMC



Management and Ownership



As a result of
IMCs ownership interest, IMC has the ability to control all matters relating to the management of IMC Phosphates, including any determination with respect to the acquisition or disposition of IMC Phosphates assets, future issuance of
additional debt and the payment of any distributions. See Part III, Item 10, Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant, and Item 11, Executive Compensation, of the 2003 10-K for further information. During 2003, IMC
Phosphates calculated $22.8 million in distributions to its partners based on the fourth quarter 2003 distributable cash calculation. IMC Phosphates distributable cash is neither recorded nor payable until 40 days after the quarter end in
accordance with the Partnership Agreement.



Intercompany
Charges



Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses. The IMC Phosphates partnership agreement generally requires that MP Co., as the managing general partner of IMC Phosphates, manage the business of IMC Phosphates, for which MP Co. receives a fee for selling and administrative expenses
initially established in the partnership agreement at $34.3 million per year and subject to subsequent adjustments based on (i) the GNP deflator index and (ii) as determined by MP Co. if it determines that the fee no longer accurately reflects
selling and administrative practices. For 2003, 2002 and 2001, such fee amounted to $28.1 million, $27.7 million and $27.1 million, respectively. The reduction from the initial $34.3 million amount set forth in the IMC Phosphates partnership
agreement reflects downward adjustments by MP Co. in accordance with the provisions of the IMC Phosphates partnership agreement referred to in (ii) above. In addition, the IMC Phosphates partnership agreement provides that MP Co. is responsible for
furnishing the work force of IMC Phosphates, for which IMC Phosphates is obligated to reimburse MP Co. for its cash costs and any other expenditures incurred by MP Co. in connection with the business and affairs of IMC Phosphates. Finally, the IMC
Phosphates partnership agreement provides that IMC Phosphates is responsible for all third party payments, reimbursement of partners expenses and amounts included in cost of goods sold. The aggregate amount paid by IMC Phosphates to IMC in
respect of selling, general and administrative expenses, including amounts paid for the administrative fee discussed above, amounted to $29.8 million, $30.8 million and $30.4 million for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Financing Arrangements. IMC Phosphates has historically relied on borrowings from IMC as a
principal source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2003, the aggregate principal amount of such loans was $314.5 million, and the weighted average annual interest rate for such loans was 5.19 percent. Reference is made to the information set forth in
Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



IMC does not allocate any of IMCs interest expense to IMC Phosphates. Rather, IMC Phosphates pays IMC interest on
outstanding borrowings by IMC Phosphates from IMC pursuant to two outstanding promissory notes payable upon demand of IMC. As set forth in Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, IMC Phosphates paid interest to IMC of $18.5 million, $15.2 million and $16.5 million for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As further described therein, both of such notes bear interest
at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus the applicable margin as defined in IMCs senior secured credit facility, which was 5.1875 percent as of December 31, 2003. IMC Phosphates partnership agreement includes no special provision
applicable solely to loans from a general partner or an affiliate of a general partner, including IMC, to IMC Phosphates; as a result, such loans are governed by a general fairness provision to the effect that transactions between IMC and its
affiliates and IMC Phosphates must be on terms no less favorable to IMC Phosphates than could be obtained from an independent third party providing similar goods or services of like quality.



Review of Intercompany Charges. Starting in 2002, IMCs
management began a comprehensive review to inquire whether the terms and rates that IMC charged PLP on intercompany borrowings were appropriate. In this review, IMC engaged the services of inside and outside legal counsel and financial advisors, and
in-house treasury staff. As a consequence of its review, management concluded that it would consider further the terms of the loans to PLP and IMC Phosphates, perhaps with the assistance of directors independent of IMC.



As a result of these reviews, IMC management has been of the view that the
intercompany charges assessed to IMC Phosphates, taking into account the rate of interest on affiliate loans and overhead allocations, has been less than what IMC would have been permitted to charge under IMC Phosphates partnership agreement,
and in the aggregate effectively subsidized IMC Phosphates.



Accordingly, IMC has initiated a review with PLP of the interest rates on the outstanding borrowings by IMC Phosphates from IMC. Such review was initiated with the independent audit committee of the board of directors of PRP. Because action
as a consequence of this review is unlikely in view of the imminence of the PLP merger, and completion of the review will be unnecessary if the PLP merger is consummated, the review remains in a preliminary stage and no final determinations
concerning changes in interest rates have been made. However, in initiating its review with the independent audit committee of PRP, IMC management expressed its view that the interest rates currently charged by IMC to IMC Phosphates are below the
rates that IMC Phosphates could obtain if it were to seek comparable loans from an unrelated third party consistent with IMC Phosphates partnership agreement. In this regard, IMC notes that, in the view of IMCs management, IMC
Phosphates creditworthiness would not permit it to obtain interest rates from unrelated lenders on comparable loans as favorable as the rates under IMCs current bank credit agreement. Accordingly, if such review were to be completed, in
the opinion of IMC management, the result would be an increase in interest expense charges to IMC Phosphates, which in turn would have an adverse impact on IMC Phosphates operating results, liquidity and capital resources.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.



INTRODUCTION



Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with financial statements and
accompanying notes included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations highlights the primary factors affecting changes in the
operating results of IMC Phosphates during the three year period ended December 31, 2003. In 2003, IMC Phosphates sold Port Sutton, which resulted in a gain of $13.9 million. In connection with this transaction, IMC Phosphates incurred a
restructuring charge of $0.3 million related to severance costs. In addition, in order to meet current business challenges and as part of IMCs drive to be the industrys low-cost producer, IMC announced an organization restructuring
program (Program) in January 2003.



As a result, IMC
Phosphates incurred charges of $2.4 million associated with severance and related costs for the Program. IMC Phosphates also recorded a charge of $4.8 million as a result of revised engineering estimates for the cost of the phosphogypsum stack
(Gypstack) closure and water treatment at a permanently closed facility. An additional $1.5 million charge was recorded for costs associated with the shutdown of an ammonia barge originally reserved for in 1998. In conjunction with the ammonia barge
shutdown, IMC Phosphates, in 1998, recorded the net present value of future lease payments which resulted in a $0.5 million charge for accretion expense in 2003. Offsetting these charges was a $1.4 million reversal of excess severance accruals no
longer deemed necessary. In 2002 IMC Phosphates incurred $2.0 million of accretion expense related to the ammonia barge discussed above. In 2001, IMC Phosphates incurred special charges, which increased the loss by $13.1 million. The special charges
were comprised of: (i) a $6.4 million charge for the repurchase, closure and planned demolition of a urea plant previously sold to a third party; (ii) a $2.8 million charge for severance related to a new organizational structure (Reorganization
Plan); (iii) a $2.4 million charge for the write-off of certain deferred costs; and (iv) a $1.5 million charge for accretion expense related to the ammonia barge discussed above.



Product prices in the worldwide crop nutrient market are highly cyclical. In addition, IMC Phosphates purchases many of its
raw materials, including ammonia, natural gas and sulphur, from third parties for use in production. Fluctuations in product and raw material prices as well as the availability of raw materials can have a material impact on the IMC Phosphates
liquidity and results from operations.



While ammonia costs
and DAP selling prices both increased substantially in the fourth quarter of 2003, the rate of DAP price improvements was greater than the increase in ammonia costs in the latter part of the fourth quarter with DAP prices continuing to strengthen
into 2004. However, IMC Phosphates did not fully benefit from the impact of the DAP price increases in the fourth quarter. This resulted because the domestic market price increases occurred primarily in December and most sales orders for the month
were taken in advance of the price increases. Therefore IMC Phosphates was not able to realize the higher prices in the fourth quarter.



At the end of 2003, Tampa DAP export spot prices of $220 metric ton were at their highest level in about five years. Much tighter grain markets, higher
crop prices, lower producer inventories and improved farm income point toward increased domestic and offshore phosphate demand. Higher raw material costs, especially ammonia and natural gas, and increased manufacturing costs remain a challenge for
2004.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



2003 Compared to 2002



IMC Phosphates Net sales of $1,335.7 million in 2003 increased six percent from $1,257.3 million in 2002. Higher average sales realizations of
concentrated phosphates, particularly DAP, favorably impacted Net sales by $104.3 million. Average DAP prices for 2003 increased 12 percent to $154 per short ton as compared to an average price of $137 per short ton for the twelve months of 2002.
Decreased shipments of concentrated phosphates unfavorably impacted Net sales by $19.9 million. The majority of the volume decrease resulted from lower shipments of DAP and GTSP of $43.4 million and $10.4 million, respectively, partially offset by
higher shipments of GMAP of $35.9 million. The decrease in DAP volumes resulted principally from decreased demand from China and lower shipments to domestic customers. An increase in plant shutdown time in 2003 resulted in lower production volumes
and therefore limited the amount of product available to the domestic market. The lower GTSP volumes were primarily the result of production problems which limited the amount of product available to service the domestic market as well as lower
export sales to Chile. The higher GMAP volumes occurred because of increased export sales to Brazil and Mexico and higher domestic sales as a result of increased sales efforts for this product line in 2003. GMAP contains lower amounts of ammonia
compared to DAP and the high cost of ammonia during 2003 led to an increased effort to sell GMAP.



Gross margins in 2003 of a negative $19.5 million decreased from a positive $79.1 million in 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of higher raw
material costs, higher phosphate operating costs, and higher idle plant costs, partially offset by higher concentrated phosphate sales prices discussed above. The higher raw material, phosphate operating and idle plant costs negatively impacted
margins by $126.2 million, $59.2 million and $17.6 million, respectively. The higher raw material costs were primarily the result of higher prices for ammonia, sulphur and natural gas. The increase in phosphate operating costs resulted principally
from lower production volumes, higher sulphuric acid usage and higher deferred turnaround amortization costs. The higher idle plant costs were the result of the Louisiana operations being idle for a portion of the month of March and the entire
months of June and July of the current year compared to producing all year in 2002 as well as a rock mine being idle for three months in the current year compared to operating during all of 2002.



In the fourth quarter of 2003, IMC Phosphates completed the sale of Port
Sutton. As a result of this transaction, IMC Phosphates received net proceeds of $20.9 million and recognized a gain of $13.9 million recorded in Operating losses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2003 10-K for further detail on this transaction.



Interest expense for 2003 increased $3.5 million to $21.8 million from $18.3 million in 2002 as a result of increased working capital borrowings from IMC.
See also Part I, Item 1, Business - Other Matters - Relationship Between IMC Phosphates and IMC - Review of Intercompany Charges of the 2003 10-K with respect to the potential adverse impact of prospective changes in intercompany charges
from IMC.



Other (income) expense, net changed $5.3 million
from $0.6 million of income in 2002 to $5.9 million of income in 2003 mainly because of a $1.6 million favorable variance from income received from IMC Phosphates investment in Gulf Services and a $3.6 million gain on natural gas forward
purchase contracts related to facilities temporarily idled during the second and third quarters of 2003 as discussed below. Per SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, the underlying contracts
did not qualify as hedges because the facilities designated to take delivery of the natural gas were idled.



Certain natural gas forward purchase contracts were entered into at various dates beginning January 9, 2002 through March 14, 2003, relating to the
periods of March, June and July 2003. As a result of a decision to idle operations in Louisiana, forecasted natural gas purchase requirements for March, June and July 2003, to which the natural gas forward purchase contracts specifically related
were no longer probable. As a result, these contracts no longer qualified as cash flow hedges under SFAS No. 133. Because the contracts no longer qualified for hedge accounting, IMC Phosphates was required to transfer the accumulated gain that
existed on the contracts at that point from Accumulated other comprehensive income to the Consolidated Statement of Operations along with the subsequent gains or losses from settlement of the contracts.

On January 1, 2003 IMC Phosphates adopted SFAS No. 143.Under the new rules, legal obligations
associated with the retirement of long-lived assets are required to be recognized at their fair value at the time that the obligations are incurred. In the first quarter, IMC Phosphates recorded a charge of $32.7 million representing the difference
between IMC Phosphates recording its obligations pursuant to the new requirements and amounts previously recorded.



2002 Compared to 2001



IMC Phosphates Net sales of $1,257.3 million in 2002 increased seven percent from $1,171.4 million in 2001. Higher average sales realizations of
concentrated phosphates, particularly DAP, favorably impacted Net sales by $46.7 million. Average DAP prices for 2002 increased seven percent to $137 per short ton as compared to an average price of $128 per short ton for the twelve months of 2001.
Increased shipments of concentrated phosphates favorably impacted Net sales by an additional $21.8 million. The majority of the volume increase resulted from higher shipments of DAP, partially offset by lower shipments of GMAP. This increase in DAP
volumes resulted principally from increased demand from China and domestic customers. The favorable DAP shipments were partially offset by lower GMAP sales to Brazil. Higher phosphate rock sales also impacted Net sales by $13.1 million which was
primarily created by increased prices. Net sales were also favorably impacted by a $6.5 million price adjustment related to prior periods.



Gross margins in 2002 of $79.1 million increased from $8.6 million in 2001, which included special charges of $2.4 million. This increase was primarily a
result of: (i) lower idle plant costs of $48.0 million; (ii) higher concentrated phosphate sales prices of $46.7 million; (iii) higher phosphate rock sales of $13.1 million; (iv) the favorable impact of the price adjustment related to prior periods
of $6.5 million; (v) improved pricing for ammonia of $21.0 million and natural gas of $4.1 million; partially offset by (vi) higher phosphate operating costs of $55.7 million; and (vii) higher sulphur costs of $24.8 million. The lower idle plant
costs were the result of the Louisiana operations producing all year in 2002 compared to being idle for seven months in 2001 as well as the phosphate rock operations being idle for eight weeks in 2001 compared with no idle weeks in 2002. The higher
sales prices were discussed above. The higher operating costs were primarily the result of higher maintenance, electricity and insurance costs.



Interest expense in 2002 of $18.3 million declined eight percent from $19.9 million in 2001 as a result of lower variable interest rates, partially offset
by increased working capital borrowings.



Other (income)
expense, net changed $8.3 million as a result of the following: (i) the absence of fees related to an accounts receivable securitization which was terminated by IMC in the first quarter of 2001, (ii) the absence of a prior year loss from natural gas
forward purchased contracts, and (iii) income received from IMC Phosphates investment in Gulf Services.



Certain natural gas forward purchase contracts were entered into at various dates beginning February 26, 2001 through April 2, 2001, relating to the
periods of June and July 2001. As a result of a decision to idle operations in Louisiana, the forecasted natural gas purchase requirements for June and July 2001, to which the natural gas forward purchase contracts specifically related, were no
longer probable. As a result, these contracts no longer qualified as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133. Because the contracts no longer qualified for hedge accounting, IMC Phosphates was required to transfer the accumulated loss that existed on the
contracts at that point from Accumulated other comprehensive income to the Consolidated Statement of Operations along with the subsequent gains or losses from settlement of the contracts. The loss from these contracts recorded in Other (income)
expense, net was $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2001.



Restructuring Activity



To meet current
business challenges and as part of IMCs drive to be the industrys low-cost producer, IMC announced the Program in January 2003. This Program eliminated 53 positions in IMC Phosphates, all of which had left IMC Phosphates by March 31,
2003, and will focus on reducing additional costs through efficiency improvements. IMC Phosphates incurred charges of $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2003 associated with severance and related costs for the Program and $0.5 million of
accretion costs related to the lease payments associated with the ammonia barge shutdown which were originally recorded at net present value in 1998. During the fourth quarter of 2003, IMC Phosphates recognized an additional $0.3 million of charges
for

severance and related expenses as a result of the sale of Port Sutton. This activity resulted in the
elimination of 29 positions. All of the employees had left IMC Phosphates by December 31, 2003. Additionally, in the fourth quarter, IMC Phosphates recorded a charge of $4.8 million as a result of revised engineering estimates for the cost of the
phosphogypsum stack (Gypstack) closure and water treatment at a permanently closed facility and $1.5 million for additional shutdown costs related to the ammonia barge. Offsetting these charges was a $1.4 million reversal of excess severance
accruals no longer deemed necessary.



In early 2003, IMC
announced a new multi-year program called Business Process Improvement. This broad-based re-engineering initiative was intended to increase efficiency, reduce costs and enhance revenues through redesign and optimization of core business processes.
The focus of Business Process Improvement has been three primary areas: (i) Operational Excellence; (ii) Strategic Procurement; and (iii) Supply/Demand Optimization. These three areas have included productivity improvement and efficiencies in
manufacturing; cost reduction and cost avoidance in procurement; optimization of profitability in sales and marketing; and efficiency improvements and cost reduction in freight and warehousing. Implementation of this major initiative is being
completed through teams and other full-time resources that are dedicated to process redesign throughout IMC. Examples of specific projects associated with this initiative are: (i) the design and implementation of a new preventive and predictive
maintenance program to reduce unnecessary costs associated with emergency repairs in the operations; and (ii) an inventory optimization program designed to reduce the working capital necessary to support customer service. In 2003, IMC Phosphates
estimated benefits of $3.2 million from the Business Process Improvement initiative.



In 2002, IMC Phosphates incurred $2.0 million of accretion expense related to the ammonia barge discussed above.



In the first quarter of 2001, IMC announced the Reorganization Plan designed to fully maximize IMCs global leadership position in phosphate crop
nutrients as well as animal feed ingredients while reducing costs, streamlining the organization and improving productivity. The Reorganization Plan was primarily comprised of a shift to a more functional organization structure, which resulted in
business unit and corporate headcount reductions. As a result, in the first quarter of 2001 IMC Phosphates recorded a restructuring charge of $2.8 million. A total of 62 employees were terminated and left IMC Phosphates prior to December 31, 2001.
Substantially all of the severance payments had been disbursed as of December 31, 2002.



As part of IMCs 1998 plan to improve profitability (Project Profit), IMC Phosphates had sold its urea plant to a third party (Buyer). The effective
operation of this plant was dependent upon receiving services from IMC Phosphates remaining Louisiana operations. The Louisiana operations were idled for the first half of 2001, which impacted the ability of the urea plant to operate. In the
third quarter of 2001, IMC Phosphates repurchased the plant from the Buyer and shut the plant down permanently. Total costs to repurchase the plant and accrue for demolition costs were $6.4 million, which resulted in a 2001 restructuring charge.
This activity was recorded in the third quarter of 2001 as an increase to the restructuring charge previously recorded for Project Profit. Additionally during 2001 IMC Phosphates recorded a $1.5 million charge for accretion expense related to the
ammonia barge discussed above.



Pension and Other
Postretirement Benefits



Based on market data, MP Co.
believes that an average expected long-term return of 8.5 percent for measuring benefit obligations is consistent with the weighted average historical returns of each asset class in MP Co.s targeted asset allocation. Based on the latest
actuarial valuation report, MP Co. will need to make a cash contribution of $24.9 million to the pension plans in 2004 compared to $0.2 million in 2003. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES



IMC Phosphates records accrued liabilities for various asset retirement obligations and the demolition of former operating facilities. As of December 31, 2003, the balances of these accrued liabilities were $143.9 million and $18.8 million,
respectively. The estimation processes used to determine the amounts of these accrued liabilities

##### Table of Contents

are very complex and use information obtained from IMC Phosphates-specific and industry data, as well as
general economic information. On January 1, 2003, IMC Phosphates began accounting for its asset retirement obligations under SFAS No. 143. Based upon the guidance of SFAS No. 143, IMC Phosphates obtained third party estimates for the costs of
retiring the assets. The costs are inflated based on an inflation factor and discounted based on a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Fluctuations in the estimated costs, inflation rates and interest rates can have a significant impact on the amounts
recorded. A one-percentage point decrease in the discount rate would increase the liability by approximately $20.0 million. For more detail, see Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary
Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The demolition of former operating facilities is based on third party estimates of the costs to be incurred. For further information, see Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8,
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimation processes require IMC Phosphates to continuously monitor and evaluate the reasonableness of the judgments made and adjust for changes in
assumptions as they occur. Actual payments for the above matters could differ from those estimated.



Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits



The measurement of IMC Phosphates pension and other postretirement obligations and costs is dependent on a variety of assumptions used by IMC
Phosphates actuaries in their models which calculate the costs and obligations. These assumptions include, among other things, estimating the present value of projected future benefit payments to all plan participants while taking into account
the likelihood of potential future events such as salary increases and certain demographic factors including mortality and employee turnover. Key assumptions determined by IMC Phosphates as of the plans measurement date each year and utilized
by the actuary in the calculation of pension and other postretirement obligations are:



| |  | Discount rate  The discount rate is based on the change in investment yields available on corporate long-term bonds rated AA.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Expected return on plan assets  The expected return on plan assets is based on IMC Phosphates consideration of the current level of expected returns on risk free
investments (primarily government bonds), the historical level of risk associated with the other assets in which the portfolio is invested and expectation of future returns in each asset class, based on historical returns of those asset classes over
an extended period of time. The expected return of each asset class was then weighted based on the target asset allocation. IMC Phosphates also considered historical plan returns and future expectations.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Rate of compensation increase  The rate of compensation increase is a factor of IMC Phosphates long-term actual experience, near-term outlook and assumed inflation.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Healthcare cost trend  The healthcare cost trend is based on assumptions on future increases in medical costs which is a factor of IMC Phosphates actual experience
combined with third party long-term medical cost trends.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Sensitivity Analyses. The impact of the indicated decrease in the two more critical assumptions is shown below for the 2004 costs. While a one percent decrease in the assumed return
on assets would result in an increase in pension expense of $0.8 million, this amount would be amortized over a three year period.

Future changes in
plan asset returns, assumed discount rates and various other factors related to the participants in IMC Phosphates pension plans will impact our future pension expense and liabilities. Additionally, changes in healthcare cost trends will
impact the other benefits expenses and liabilities. IMC Phosphates cannot predict with certainty what these factors will be in the future and, therefore, cannot assess the impact of such changes.



The amount of the current unrecognized losses on pension assets and the
estimated effect of such losses on future pension expense are as follows:

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY



Historically,
IMC Phosphates has satisfied its borrowing needs through IMC. IMC Phosphates has two promissory notes (Promissory Notes) payable to IMC for borrowings up to $400.0 million and $65.0 million. The $400.0 million and $65.0 million demand notes have
variable rates, based on LIBOR plus the applicable margin as defined in the senior secured facilities entered into by IMC on May 17, 2001 (Credit Facility), which was 5.1875 percent as of December 31, 2003. IMC Phosphates also had a promissory note
payable to IMC at September 30, 2003 with a principal amount of $4.8 million. This note was paid in full at December 31, 2003. In order to meet the ongoing liquidity needs of IMC Phosphates, on September 1, 2003 the $400.0 million promissory note
was amended to increase the maximum amount available from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. All other terms remained unchanged. IMC Phosphates had borrowed $249.5 million and $65.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2003. IMC has advised IMC
Phosphates that it does not intend to demand payment on the Promissory Notes prior to January 1, 2005; however, IMC has entered into discussions with IMC Phosphates contemplating a revision to the terms of the loans from IMC to IMC Phosphates,
including the interest rate, if warranted. If such discussions were to be completed, in the opinion of IMC management, the result would be an increase in interest expense charges to IMC Phosphates, which in turn would have an adverse impact on IMC
Phosphates operating results, liquidity and capital resources. See Part I, Item 1, Business - Other Matters - Relationship Between IMC Phosphates and IMC - Review of Intercompany Charges of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
Promissory Notes evidencing the obligations to IMC have been classified as long-term.

##### Table of Contents

IMCs ability to make payments on and to refinance its indebtedness and to fund planned capital
expenditures and expansion efforts in the future, if any, will depend on IMCs ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond
IMCs control. IMC believes that its cash, other liquid assets and operating cash flow, together with available borrowings and potential access to credit and capital markets, will be sufficient to meet IMCs operating expenses and capital
expenditures and to service its debt requirements and other contractual obligations as they become due.



IMCs credit facilities require it to maintain certain financial ratios, including a leverage ratio test and an interest coverage test. In addition,
the credit facilities contain certain covenants and events of default. Most of IMCs various material debt instruments have cross-default provisions. In general, pursuant to these provisions, the instruments governing such debt arrangements
each provide that a failure to pay principal or interest under other indebtedness in excess of a specified threshold amount will result in a cross-default. Of IMCs material debt instruments, the Credit Facility has the lowest specified
threshold amount, $20.0 million. IMCs access to funds is dependent upon its product prices, input costs and market conditions. During periods in which product prices or volumes; raw material prices or availability; or other conditions reflect
the adverse impact of cyclical market trends or other factors; there can be no assurance that IMC would be able to comply with applicable financial covenants or meet its liquidity needs. IMC cannot assure that its business will generate sufficient
cash flow from operations in the future; that its currently anticipated growth in net sales and cash flow will be realized; or that future borrowings will be available when needed or in an amount sufficient to enable IMC to repay indebtedness or to
fund other liquidity needs.



IMC is seeking to obtain certain
amendments to the Credit Facility, primarily to amend a requirement that IMC refinance the remaining approximately $37.0 million of senior notes scheduled to mature in 2005 (2005 Senior Notes) prior to October 15, 2004, and also, among other things,
to modify financial ratios covenant levels for 2004. In 2003, IMC refinanced approximately $413.0 million of the $450.0 million 2005 Senior Notes then outstanding. Absent an amendment, should the remainder of the 2005 Senior Notes not be refinanced
in full prior to October 15, 2004, the Credit Facility would mature on October 15, 2004. IMC is seeking the ability to repay approximately $10.0 million of the 2005 Senior Notes at maturity in January 2005 and to extend the date by which it must
refinance the remaining balance of the 2005 Senior Notes to March 2005. In order to obtain the amendment pertaining specifically to the extension of the maturity date, IMC must obtain unanimous consent from the participants in the Credit Facility.
The other amendments, including the modifying of covenant levels, require only a majority vote of the participants in the Credit Facility.



There can be no assurance that IMC will be able to obtain any necessary waivers or amendments from the requisite lenders. Any failure to comply with the
restrictions of the credit facilities or any agreement governing its indebtedness may result in an event of default under those agreements. Such default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt, which may trigger cross-acceleration or
cross-default provisions in other debt. In addition, lenders may be able to terminate any commitments they had made to supply IMC with further funds (including periodic rollovers of existing borrowings). IMC has been in compliance with all of its
debt and other covenants during all periods presented. No waivers have been necessary.



IMC Phosphates ability to generate cash is dependent on its operations and borrowings from IMC. Operating activities provided $24.0 million of cash in 2003 compared with $85.2 million of cash provided by
operating activities in 2002. The decrease of $61.2 million was primarily due to a decrease in operating earnings.



Net cash used by investing activities decreased $56.5 million from $110.6 million in 2002 to $54.1 million in 2003. This decrease was primarily a result
of: (i) decreased capital expenditures; (ii) the absence of a $10.0 million investment in Gulf Services in 2002; and (iii) $20.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of Port Sutton. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part
II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2003 10-Kfor a discussion of the sale of Port Sutton.

##### Table of Contents

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2003 was $30.6 million, which increased by $6.0 million from
$24.6 million in 2002. This change was primarily the result of higher incremental working capital borrowings from IMC, partially offset by repayments of long-term debt.



IMC Phosphates has historically relied on borrowings from IMC as a principal source of liquidity. Pursuant to the Credit
Facility, IMC and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including IMC Phosphates, may borrow up to approximately $470.0 million. The Credit Facility consists of a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) of up to $210.0 million
available for revolving credit loans and letters of credit as well as a term loan facility (Term Loan Facility) of $258.3 million.



The Credit Facility requires IMC to meet certain financial tests, including but not limited to, a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage
ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum ratio of the sum of certain secured obligations as of any date to the collateral coverage amount (as defined in the Credit Facility). In addition, the Credit Facility contains certain covenants,
including limitations on the payment of dividends, and events of default.



The Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of IMCs direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, as well as by certain direct and indirect foreign subsidiaries. The
Credit Facility is secured by: (i) a pledge of certain equity interests and intercompany debt held by IMC and the subsidiary guarantors in their subsidiaries; (ii) a security interest in accounts receivable and inventory; and (iii) mortgages on
certain of IMCs potash mining and production facilities, with a net book value of $290.2 million as of December 31, 2003. The guarantees by PLP and IMC Phosphates are limited by the amount of existing intercompany debt owed by such entities to
IMC and its other subsidiaries. Any payment under such guarantees would constitute a corresponding repayment of such intercompany debt.



As of December 31, 2003, IMC had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, outstanding letters of credit totaling $82.4 million, $1.5
million of which do not reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, and $258.3 million outstanding under the Term Loan Facility. The net available additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2003, were
approximately $129.1 million.



Most of IMCs sales of
potash into and from the U.S. are made through a subsidiary, IMC USA Inc. LLC (IMC USA). In May 2003, IMC USA entered into a five year $55.0 million revolving credit facility (Potash Facility) where it may borrow up to a maximum of $52.5 million
subject to a borrowing base calculation based on eligible inventory and accounts receivable. Borrowings under the Potash Facility bear an interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread (initially 275 basis points), and are secured by IMC USAs accounts
receivable and inventory. The Potash Facility is available for the general corporate purposes of IMC USA. Borrowings under the Potash Facility are guaranteed on an unsecured basis by IMC USA Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of IMC and the parent of IMC
USA. Neither IMC, nor any other subsidiary is a guarantor for the borrowings under the Potash Facility. As of December 31, 2003, the Potash Facility had a borrowing base that could support borrowings up to $31.3 million, of which IMC USA had full
availability.



In June 2003, IMC sold 2.75 million shares of
7.5 percent Mandatory Convertible Preferred Shares (liquidation preference $50 per share) (Preferred Shares) for net proceeds of $133.1 million. The Preferred Shares have a dividend yield of 7.5 percent, a 22 percent conversion premium (for an
equivalent conversion price of $7.76 per common share) and will mandatorily convert into shares of IMCs common stock on July 1, 2006. The net proceeds of the offering were used for general corporate purposes, which included funding working
capital and debt reduction. The number of common shares that could be issued upon conversion of the 2.75 million Preferred Shares ranges from approximately 17.7 million shares to 21.6 million shares, based upon the average market price of IMCs
common stock.



IMCs Board of Directors did not declare a
dividend on IMCs common stock for the quarter ended December 31, 2003. This action was the result of IMCs commitment to cash flow enhancement and balance sheet improvement.

On August 1, 2003 IMC issued $400.0 million principal amount of new 10.875 percent Notes due 2013 with
net proceeds before fees and expenses of $391.1 million (August Note Offering). The proceeds of the August Note Offering, together with $59.4 million of proceeds from the Preferred Shares, were used to: (i) repurchase $140.4 million of the 6.55
percent notes due 2005 and $273.1 million of the 7.625 percent notes due 2005 pursuant to tender offers (Tender Offers) completed on August 1, 2003; (ii) pay $23.3 million of tender premiums related to the Tender Offers; (iii) pay $5.6 million of
accrued interest related to the repurchased bonds; and (iv) pay related fees and expenses. The 10.875 percent notes due 2013 contain covenants similar to and rank pari pasu with IMCs 10.875 percent notes due 2008 and the 11.25 percent notes
due 2011 (collectively the Notes) and are guaranteed by the same subsidiaries of IMC, including PLP and IMC Phosphates, that guarantee the 10.875 percent notes due 2008 and 11.25 percent notes due 2011. The guarantees by PLP and IMC Phosphates are
limited by the amount of intercompany debt owed by IMC Phosphates and PLP to IMC and its other subsidiaries. The Notes contain certain covenants that limit matters including the making of restricted payments, as defined. Under the most restrictive
of the covenants limiting restricted payments, as of December 31, 2003, IMC had $22.2 million available for the payment of cash dividends with respect to its common and preferred stock. In addition, the merger agreement with Cargill limits dividends
on IMCs common and preferred stock to regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.02 per share and $0.9375 per share, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

IMC Phosphates has $119.8 million of non-current liabilities for reclamation activities, Gypstack closure
and water treatment in its Florida and Louisiana operations, where to obtain necessary permits, it must either pass a test of financial strength or provide credit support, typically surety bonds or financial guarantees. As of December 31, 2003 IMC
Phosphates had $84.4 million in surety bonds outstanding which mature over the course of 2004, and met the financial strength test for the remaining portion of such additional liabilities. In connection with the outstanding surety bonds, IMC
Phosphates, through IMC, has posted $40.0 million of collateral in the form of letters of credit. There can be no assurance that IMC Phosphates can continue to pass such tests of financial strength or to purchase surety bonds on the same terms and
conditions. However, IMC Phosphates anticipates that it will be able to satisfy applicable credit support requirements without disrupting normal business operations.



In addition, IMC Phosphates has granted a mortgage on approximately 22,000 previously mined acres of land in Florida with a
net book value of approximately $14.0 million as security for certain reclamation costs in the event that an option granted to a third party to purchase the mortgaged land is not exercised.



The State of Florida has begun formulating new financial assurance rules for
closure and long-term care of Gypstacks. Such rules likely will become effective in 2004 and are expected to include more stringent financial tests than the current rules, along with requirements that closure cost estimates include the cost of
treating Gypstack water. Until definitive regulations or interpretations have been finalized, IMC Phosphates is unable to determine the nature of the new financial assurance obligations or to predict with certainty the financial impact of these
requirements on IMC Phosphates; however, these impacts could be significant. IMC Phosphates currently recognizes both Gypstack closure costs and Gypstack water treatment costs as liabilities in accordance with SFAS No. 143.



Most of IMC Phosphates export sales of phosphate crop nutrients are
marketed through PhosChem. As a member, IMC Phosphates is, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, contractually obligated to reimburse PhosChem for its pro rata share of any operating expenses or other liabilities incurred. The reimbursements
are made through reductions to members cash receipts from PhosChem.

customers operate; weather conditions; the terms and interest rates on debt of IMC Phosphates; the willingness of IMC to continue to loan funds to IMC Phosphates; the impact of competitive products; pressure on prices realized by IMC Phosphates for
its products; constraints on supplies of raw materials used in manufacturing certain of IMC Phosphates products; capacity constraints limiting the production of certain products; difficulties or delays in the development, production, testing

of obtaining or satisfying conditions of, required governmental and regulatory approvals; market
acceptance issues, including the failure of products to generate anticipated sales levels; the effects of and change in trade, monetary, environmental and fiscal policies, laws and regulations; foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates;
the costs and effects of legal proceedings, including environmental and administrative proceedings involving IMC Phosphates; success in implementing IMC Phosphates various initiatives; the uncertain effects upon the global and domestic
economies and financial markets of the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001 and their aftermaths; and other risk factors reported from time to time in IMC Phosphates Securities and Exchange Commission
reports. These factors are based upon IMCs strategic plans and direction under its current Board of Directors and management. As described previously, IMC has entered into a business combination agreement with Cargill. If the transactions
contemplated thereby are consummated, IMCs business would be operated by a newly-formed public company going forward. The Board of Directors and management of the new public company may not be the same as exists on the date hereof for IMC, and
they may operate the business of IMC in a manner that differs from IMCs current operations. The factors listed above do not account for any such possible change in IMCs operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Partners of IMC Phosphates Company:



We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IMC Phosphates Company (a Partnership) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners capital and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of IMC Phosphates Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of IMC Phosphates Company as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.



In 2003, as discussed in Note 4, IMC Phosphates changed its method of
accounting for asset retirement obligations to conform to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 143. In 2001, as discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, IMC Phosphates changed its method of accounting for derivative
financial instruments to conform with FASB No. 133.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, except as otherwise indicated)



|1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|-- | ---------------------



On July 1, 1993, IMC Global Inc. (IMC) entered into a joint venture partnership with Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership (PLP), pursuant to
which IMC and PLP contributed their respective phosphate businesses at net book value to create IMC Phosphates Company (IMC Phosphates), a Delaware general partnership. PRP-GP LLC (PRP), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of IMC, is the managing
general partner and 51.58 percent owner of PLP. FMRP Inc., which is also a wholly owned subsidiary of IMC, owns 0.02 percent of PLP. The activities of IMC Phosphates include the mining and sale of phosphate rock, as well as the production,
distribution and sale of concentrated phosphates, animal feed ingredients and related products. IMC Phosphates operates in one business segment.



The managing partner of IMC Phosphates is IMC Phosphates MP Inc. (MP Co.), which is jointly owned by IMC and PLP and, through a management agreement,
operates the business and affairs of IMC Phosphates. IMC Phosphates pays to MP Co. an annual fee (Administrative Fee) intended to compensate MP Co. for selling and administrative services provided by IMC and its affiliates and charged through MP Co.
to IMC Phosphates. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, the Administrative Fee totaled $28.1 million, $27.7 million and $27.1 million, respectively, all of which was paid to MP Co. and subsequently remitted to IMC.



On a quarterly basis, IMC Phosphates calculates cash distributable to IMC
and PLP based on formulas and sharing ratios as defined in the IMC Phosphates Partnership Agreement (Partnership Agreement). Sharing ratios for all IMC Phosphates operations are fixed at 58.5 percent to IMC and 41.5 percent to PLP. The
distributable cash (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) calculated was $22.8 million, $10.0 million, and zero for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



|2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | -------------------



Basis of Consolidation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IMC Phosphates and all subsidiaries which are more than 50 percent owned and controlled. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.



Use of Estimates



Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



Revenue Recognition



IMC Phosphates recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and
earned. Revenue is generally realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (iii) the sellers price to
the buyer is fixed and determinable; and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. This occurs upon transfer of title to the customer, which is generally at the time the product is shipped. For certain export shipments, transfer of title occurs
outside the United States (U.S.). Net sales includes adjustments for returns and allowances, rebates and quality adjustments.



Shipping and Handling Costs



IMC Phosphates records all shipping and handling costs in Cost of goods sold.



Cost of Goods Sold



Cost of goods sold reflects the production costs of IMC Phosphates products. These costs include hourly labor, production materials, facilities
costs (depreciation and amortization), depletion of mineral properties, utilities, salary supervision, maintenance expenses and distribution costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses



Selling, general and administrative expenses are costs associated with the
marketing and selling of IMC Phosphates products as well as general and administrative expenses. These costs include employee salaries and benefits, advertising costs as well as other selling expenses, and are primarily included as part of the
Administrative Fee.



Advertising Costs



IMC Phosphates expenses advertising costs as incurred.



Cash Equivalents



IMC Phosphates considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.



Concentration of Credit Risk



Domestically,
IMC Phosphates sells its products to crop nutrient manufacturers, distributors and retailers primarily in the midwestern and southeastern U.S. Internationally, IMC Phosphates products are sold primarily through Phosphate Chemicals Export
Association (PhosChem). No single customer or group of affiliated customers accounted for more than ten percent of IMC Phosphates net sales in either year during the two-year period ended December 31, 2002. In the year ended December 31, 2003,
sales to the China National Agricultural Means of Production Group Corporation (CNAMPGC), through PhosChem, represented approximately 12 percent of IMC Phosphates total sales.



Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts



Accounts receivable are recorded at face amount less an allowance for
doubtful accounts. On a regular basis, IMC Phosphates evaluates its accounts receivable as well as establishes the allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of specific customer circumstances and credit conditions and a history of
write-offs and collections. A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within agreed upon invoice terms.



Inventories



Inventories are valued at the lower-of-cost-or-market (net realizable value). Cost for substantially all inventories is determined on a cumulative annual
average cost basis.



Property, Plant and Equipment



Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost.
Expenditures for replacements and improvements are capitalized; maintenance and repair expenditures, except for repair and maintenance overhauls (Turnarounds), are charged to operations when incurred. Expenditures for Turnarounds are deferred when
incurred and amortized into Cost of goods sold on a straight-line basis, generally over an 18-month period. Turnarounds are large-scale maintenance projects that are performed regularly, usually every 18 to 24 months. Turnarounds are necessary to
maintain the operating capacity and efficiency rates of the production plants. The deferred portion of the Turnaround expenditures is classified in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The types of turnaround costs capitalized primarily
include third party costs for maintenance materials, contract maintenance labor and catalyst. IMC Phosphates capitalized $27.6 million, $26.7 million and $19.1 million of costs for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and
amortized into Cost of goods sold $27.7 million, $25.7 million and $18.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has issued a Statement of Position exposure draft (SOP) on cost capitalization that is expected to
require companies to expense the non-capital portion of major maintenance costs as incurred. The SOP is expected to require that any existing unamortized deferred non-capital major maintenance costs be expensed immediately. The SOP indicated that
this change will be required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004, and that the effect of expensing existing unamortized deferred non-capital major maintenance costs will be reported as a cumulative effect of an
accounting change in the consolidated statement of operations. IMC Phosphates had $24.2 million and $24.3 million of turnaround costs deferred and included in Other assets as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. IMC Phosphates has not
determined the amount, if any, of these costs that could be capitalized under the provisions of the SOP.

There are two basic ways to acquire mineral rights, either through purchase or lease. Under a lease
situation, IMC Phosphates pays the lessor a fee as the ore is mined. The lease costs are expensed when the ore is mined. If and when IMC Phosphates acquires mineral reserves, via fee simple land purchases or mining rights, the acquisition price of
the transaction is capitalized and recorded as a mineral asset. The original purchase price remains as an asset until such time that IMC Phosphates starts mining the reserves, at which time, the mineral asset is depleted over the life of the mineral
reserves as it is mined. IMC Phosphates expenses exploration and development costs in the period incurred.



Depreciation and depletion expenses for mining operations, including mineral deposits, are determined using the units-of-production method based on
estimates of proven and probable reserves. Other asset classes or groups are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows: buildings, 17 to 32 years; machinery and equipment, three to 25 years.



Using the methodology prescribed in Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, IMC Phosphates reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amounts of such assets may not
be recoverable. Once an indication of a potential impairment exists, recoverability of the respective assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate, to the carrying amount of
such operation. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then long-lived assets of the operation are written down to fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised
values, depending upon the nature of the assets.



Accrued
Environmental Costs



IMC Phosphates produces and
distributes crop and animal nutrients. These activities subject IMC Phosphates to an evolving myriad of international, federal, state, provincial and local environmental, health and safety laws, which regulate, or propose to regulate: (i) conduct of
mining and production operations, including employee safety procedures; (ii) condition of IMC Phosphates facilities; (iii) management and handling of raw materials; (iv) product content; (v) use of products by both IMC Phosphates and its
customers; (vi) management and/or remediation of potential impacts to air, water quality and soil from IMC Phosphates operations; (vii) disposal of waste materials; and (viii) reclamation of lands after mining. IMC Phosphates has contingent
environmental liabilities that arise principally from three sources: (i) facilities currently or formerly owned by IMC Phosphates or its predecessors; (ii) facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities; and (iii) third-party
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) or state equivalent sites. The historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal nutrients and additives as well as by-product or process
tailings have resulted in soil and groundwater contamination, requiring IMC Phosphates to undertake or fund cleanup efforts.



The environmental costs discussed above include: fines, penalties and certain corrective actions to address violations of the law; remediation of
properties that are currently or were formerly owned or operated by IMC Phosphates, or its predecessors; remediation costs of facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities or for third-party Superfund sites; and legal fees and
expenses associated with resolution of administrative processes or litigation concerning these environmental costs. Environmental accruals are recorded on an undiscounted basis for environmental investigatory and non-capital remediation costs and
for costs associated with litigation at identified sites when litigation has commenced or a claim or assessment has been asserted or is imminent, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the financial impact of such outcome is
reasonably estimable. These accruals are adjusted as necessary for any changes in IMC Phosphates estimates of the future costs associated with these matters. IMC Phosphates cannot determine the cost of any remedial action that ultimately may
be required at unknown sites, sites for which investigations have not been performed or have begun but have not been completed or sites at which unanticipated conditions are discovered.



Income Taxes



IMC Phosphates operating results are included in the income tax returns of IMC and the unitholders of PLP. Accordingly, no provision for income
taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities



IMC Phosphates is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes on
borrowings and the impact of fluctuations in the purchase price of natural gas, ammonia and sulphur consumed in operations, as well as changes in the market value of its financial instruments. IMC Phosphates periodically enters into derivatives in
order to minimize the effects of changing natural gas prices, but not for trading purposes.



On January 1, 2001, IMC Phosphates adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 133, IMC Phosphates recorded a
transition adjustment upon adoption of SFAS No. 133 to record its derivative instruments at fair value. The effect of this transition adjustment resulted in a gain of $1.6 million recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is included
in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Partners Capital. IMC Phosphates recognized all of the unrealized gains associated with this transition adjustment during the first quarter of 2001.



IMC Phosphates uses financial instruments, including forward exchange,
option, futures and swap contracts, to manage its exposure to movements in commodity prices. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intent to reduce the risk and variability to IMC Phosphates. Initially,
upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, and prospectively, on the date a derivative contract is entered into, IMC Phosphates designates the derivative as either: (i) a hedge of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (fair value
hedge); (ii) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge); or (iii) as a natural hedging instrument whose change in fair value is
recognized to act as an economic hedge against changes in the values of the hedged item (natural hedge). IMC Phosphates formally documents its hedge relationships, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as
its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. IMC Phosphates also formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are
effective in offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item. When it is determined that a derivative ceases to be an effective hedge, IMC Phosphates discontinues hedge accounting.



IMC Phosphates had $47.6 million and $13.7 million notional amounts of
natural gas forward purchase contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, with the contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2003 maturing in various months through March 2005. These derivative financial instruments have been
designated as cash flow hedges and are being used to hedge volatility in natural gas prices. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of IMC Phosphates cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income. As of
December 31, 2003, IMC Phosphates had unrealized gains totaling $3.6 million related to its cash flow hedges all of which are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. As of December 31, 2002, IMC Phosphates had unrealized
gains totaling $4.4 million related to its cash flow hedges. Unrealized gains or losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive income are recognized in earnings in the same period that the underlying hedged item is realized. The ineffective
portion of changes in the fair value of IMC Phosphates cash flow hedges is reported in Other (income) expense, net and amounted to income of $3.6 million in 2003, zero in 2002 and a charge of $3.1 million in 2001.



|3. | SALE OF ASSETS
|-- | --------------



In the fourth quarter of 2003, IMC Phosphates sold its Port Sutton fertilizer and feed warehouse and marine export terminal in East Tampa, Florida (Port
Sutton). IMC Phosphates received gross proceeds of $22.4 million with $20.9 million of cash received and $1.5 million of cash held in an escrow account, which was recorded at net present value. IMC Phosphates will receive the escrowed amount in
equal installments over a four year period if certain conditions as specified in the agreement are met. IMC Phosphates recorded a gain of $13.9 million.

|4. | ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
|-- | -------------------------------------------



On January 1, 2003 IMC Phosphates adopted SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. Under the new rules, legal obligations
associated with the retirement of long-lived assets are required to be recognized at their fair value at the time that the obligations are incurred. Upon initial recognition of a liability, that cost is capitalized as part of the related long-lived
asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the remaining estimated useful life of the related asset. Accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability is also recognized over the remaining useful life of the related asset. Upon
adoption, IMC Phosphates had the following legal obligations: (i) as a condition to receive permits for the mining of phosphate rock reserves, IMC Phosphates must reclaim lands disturbed by mining; (ii) acidic water in the Phosphogypsum stack
(Gypstacks) ponds and pores must be treated to neutralize the acidity; and (iii) Gypstacks at IMC Phosphates Florida and Louisiana facilities must be closed at the end of their useful lives. The estimated liability for these legal obligations
is based on the estimated cost to satisfy the above obligations and then discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate.



The adoption of SFAS No. 143, resulted in an increase in net property, plant and equipment of $17.9 million, recognition of an additional asset retirement
obligation liability of $50.6 million, and a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle that increased the net loss and reduced Partners capital by $32.7 million in the first quarter of 2003.



The following is a reconciliation of prior year earnings (loss) between the
amounts previously reported by IMC Phosphates and the adjusted amounts that would have been reported if SFAS No. 143 had been applied in prior years.

Phosphates was unable to determine the impact of adoption on the Consolidated Statement of Operations for 2003.

|5. | RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITY
|-- | ----------------------



2003 Restructuring Charges



To meet current business challenges and as part of IMCs drive to be the industrys low cost producer, IMC announced an organizational
restructuring program (Program) in January 2003. This Program eliminated 53 positions in IMC Phosphates, all of which had left IMC Phosphates by March 31, 2003, and is focusing on reducing additional costs through efficiency improvements. IMC
Phosphates incurred charges of $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2003 associated with severance and related costs for the Program. In addition, $0.3 million was recorded for severance benefits related to the Port Sutton sale (Note 3). This
activity resulted in the elimination of 29 positions. All of the employees had left IMC Phosphates by December 31, 2003. IMC Phosphates recorded a charge of $4.8 million as a result of revised engineering estimates for the cost of the Gypstack
closure and water treatment at a permanently closed facility. An additional $1.5 million charge was recorded for costs associated with the shutdown of an ammonia barge originally reserved for in 1998. Future lease payments associated with the
ammonia barge were originally recorded in 1998 at net present value resulting in $0.5 million charge for accretion expense. Offsetting these charges was a $1.4 million reversal of excess severance accruals no longer deemed necessary.



2002 Restructuring Charges



In 2002, IMC Phosphates incurred $2.0 million, $0.5 million per quarter, of
accretion expense related to the ammonia barge discussed above.



2001 Restructuring Charges



In the first
quarter of 2001, IMC announced a new organizational structure (Reorganization Plan), primarily comprised of a shift to a more functional organization structure, which resulted in business unit and corporate headcount reductions. As a result, in the
first quarter of 2001 IMC Phosphates recorded a restructuring charge of $2.8 million. A total of 62 employees were terminated and left IMC Phosphates prior to December 31, 2001. Substantially all of the severance payments had been disbursed as of
December 31, 2002.



As part of IMCs 1998 plan to improve
profitability (Project Profit), IMC Phosphates had sold its urea plant to a third party buyer (Buyer). The effective operation of this plant was dependent upon receiving services from IMC Phosphates remaining Louisiana operations. The
Louisiana operations were idled for the first half of 2001, which impacted the ability of the urea plant to operate. In the third quarter of 2001, IMC Phosphates repurchased the plant from the Buyer and shut the plant down permanently. Total costs
to repurchase the plant and accrue for demolition costs were $6.4 million, which resulted in a 2001 restructuring charge. This activity was recorded in the third quarter of 2001 as an increase to the restructuring charge previously recorded for
Project Profit. Additionally, IMC Phosphates recorded a $1.5 million charge ($0.5 million each in the second, third and fourth quarters) for accretion expense related to the ammonia barge discussed above.



1999 Restructuring Charge



During the fourth quarter of 1999, IMC Phosphates announced and began
implementing a rightsizing program (Rightsizing Program), which was designed to simplify and focus its operations. The key components of the Rightsizing Program were: (i) the shutdown and permanent closure of the Nichols and Payne Creek facilities
resulting from an optimization program to reduce rock and concentrate production costs through higher utilization rates at the lowest-cost facilities; and (ii) headcount reductions. A liability of $17.9 million remains primarily related to the
closure of the Nichols and Payne Creek facilities.

Non-Employee Exit
Costs



As a result of the decision to permanently close
certain facilities and production operations described above, IMC Phosphates recorded closure costs for demolition activities and incremental environmental land reclamation of the surrounding mined-out areas. All facilities were closed and IMC
Phosphates expects all demolition, closure and reclamation activities to be completed by the end of 2014.



Employee Headcount Reductions



As part of the Reorganization Plan, Rightsizing Program and Project Profit, headcount reductions were implemented throughout IMC Phosphates. The majority
of these reductions were a result of the closing and/or exiting of production operations, as discussed above. A total of 1,159 employees were terminated.



The activity related to accruals for IMC Phosphates restructuring programs during 2002 consisted of a beginning balance of $34.4 million reduced by
cash payments of $12.8 million and increased by restructuring charges of $2.0 million. The activity related to accruals for IMC Phosphates restructuring programs during 2001 consisted of a beginning balance of $49.3 million reduced by cash
payments of $25.6 million and increased by $9.2 million from the Reorganization Plan, urea plant repurchase and $1.5 million of accretion expenses for future minimum lease payments related to the ammonia barge shutdown that was originally accrued
for in 1998.



All restructuring charges were recorded as a
separate line item on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

IMC Phosphates had
depreciation and depletion expense of $96.6 million, $93.2 million and $78.1 million for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



As of December 31, 2003, idle facilities of IMC Phosphates included one concentrated phosphate granulation plant, the acid production facilities at
another concentrated phosphate plant and a phosphoric acid storage tank at a port facility, all of which will remain closed until market conditions improve. The net book value of these facilities

totaled $66.2 million. In the opinion of management, the net book value of IMC Phosphates idle
facilities is not in excess of their net realizable values. IMC Phosphates policy has been, to depreciate the property, plant and equipment of idle facilities at 10 percent of normal straight-line depreciation. IMC Phosphates believes that,
except for a small portion of the equipment, the useful life of the idle facilities is not reduced during the period they are idle.

IMC Phosphates has
two promissory notes (Promissory Notes) payable to IMC for borrowings up to $400.0 million and $65.0 million, respectively. In order to meet the ongoing liquidity needs of IMC Phosphates, on September 1, 2003 the $400.0 million promissory note was
amended to increase the maximum amount available from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. All other terms remained unchanged. The $400.0 million and $65.0 million demand notes have variable rates, based on LIBOR plus the applicable margin as defined
in IMCs senior secured credit facility, which was 5.1875 percent as of December 31, 2003. IMC Phosphates had borrowed $249.5 million and $65.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2003 and $204.8 million and $65.0 million, respectively as
of December 31, 2002, under the Promissory Notes. IMC Phosphates also had a promissory note with a principal balance of $4.8 million payable to IMC. This note was paid in full at December 31, 2003. The principal on this promissory note owed to IMC
at December 31, 2002 was $9.5 million. IMC has advised IMC Phosphates that it does not intend to demand payment on the Promissory Notes prior to January 1, 2005; however, IMC has entered into discussions with IMC Phosphates contemplating a revision
to the terms of the loans from IMC to IMC Phosphates, including the interest rate, if warranted. The Promissory Notes evidencing the obligations to IMC have been classified as long-term.



On December 31, 2003, the estimated fair value of non-affiliate long-term debt described above was approximately $3.4
million less than the carrying amount of such debt. The fair value was estimated by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently available to IMC Phosphates for debt instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.



IMC entered into a senior secured credit facility on May 17, 2001 (Credit
Facility). Pursuant to the Credit Facility, IMC and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including IMC Phosphates, may borrow up to approximately $470.0 million. The Credit Facility consisted of a revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit
Facility) of up to $210.0 million available for revolving credit loans and letters of credit as well as a term loan facility (Term Loan Facility) of $258.3 million. Concurrent with the closing of the Credit Facility, IMC issued $400.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 10.875 percent senior notes due 2008 (Seven Year Notes) and $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.25 percent senior notes due 2011 (Ten Year Notes). On November 2, 2001, IMC issued an additional $100.0 million
of the Ten Year Notes (November Note Offering). On December 10, 2002, IMC issued an additional $117.5 million of the Ten Year Notes (December Note Offering and together with the Seven Year Notes, the Ten Year Notes and the November Note Offering,
Notes). The proceeds of the December Note Offering were used: (i) to redeem all of IMCs remaining $98.3 million of the 6.50 percent senior notes due August 1, 2003 in January 2003; (ii) pay related fees and expenses; and (iii) for general
corporate purposes. The indentures under which the Notes were issued contain covenants that limit certain matters. In addition, prior to the time that the Notes receive an investment grade rating from both Standard & Poors Ratings Group as
well as Moodys Investors Services Inc. and the fall-away event is satisfied, covenants contained in the indentures limit IMCs ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, pay dividends on, redeem
or repurchase IMCs capital stock. If IMC experiences specific kinds of changes of control prior to the fall-away event, holders of the Notes will have the right to require IMC to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to
101 percent of the principal amount thereon, together with any accrued or unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

##### Table of Contents

The Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facilities were classified as long-term as of December 31, 2003. The
Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on May 17, 2006 while the Term Loan Facility is scheduled to mature on November 17, 2006. If IMC does not refinance and repay in full all of the 7.625 percent Senior Notes due 2005 and 6.55 percent
Senior Notes due 2005 (2005 Senior Notes) with proceeds from the issuance of permitted debt securities prior to October 15, 2004, then the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facilities will mature on October 15, 2004. Permitted Debt Securities are
defined in IMCs Credit Facility to mean unsecured debt securities issued by IMC that (i) mature later than, and do not require any amortization or similar scheduled principal payments prior to, May 31, 2007, and (ii) have terms and conditions
(other than with respect to interest rates and redemption premiums) no less favorable to IMC and the lenders than those of the Notes. In 2003 IMC refinanced $413.5 million of the 2005 Senior Notes. As of December 31, 2003 a total of $36.5 million of
the 2005 Senior Notes remained outstanding ($9.6 million of the 6.55 percent and $26.9 million of the 7.625 percent). There can be no assurance that IMC will be able to either refinance the 2005 Senior Notes or obtain an amendment to its Credit
Facility removing the requirement to refinance. IMC is seeking to obtain certain amendments to the Credit Facility, primarily to amend the requirement to refinance the remaining 2005 Senior Notes prior to October 15, 2004, and also, among other
things, modifying financial ratio covenant levels for 2004. IMC is seeking the ability to repay approximately $10.0 million of the 2005 Senior Notes at maturity in January 2005 and to extend the date by which it must refinance the remaining balance
of the 2005 Senior Notes to March 2005. In order to obtain the amendment pertaining specifically to the extension of the maturity date, IMC must obtain unanimous consent from the participants in the Credit Facility. The other amendments, including
the modifying of covenant levels, require only a majority vote of the participants in the Credit Facility.



Prior to the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility, funds may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility without
premium or penalty. Amounts repaid in respect of the Term Loan Facility may not be reborrowed.



As of December 31, 2003, IMC had nothing drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2003 totaled $82.4
million, $1.5 million of which does not reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2003, the net available additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $129.1 million. In 2003, repayments of $2.8
million of borrowings resulted in an outstanding balance of $258.3 million under the Term Loan Facility as of December 31, 2003.



The Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of IMCs direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, including IMC Phosphates, as well as by
certain direct and indirect foreign subsidiaries. The Credit Facility is secured by: (i) a pledge of certain equity interests and intercompany debt held by IMC and the subsidiary guarantors in their subsidiaries; (ii) a security interest in accounts
receivable and inventory; and (iii) mortgages on certain of IMCs potash mining and production facilities, with a net book value of $290.2 million as of December 31, 2003. The guarantee by IMC Phosphates is limited by the amount of existing
intercompany debt owed by PLP and IMC Phosphates to IMC and its other subsidiaries. Any payments under such guarantee would constitute a corresponding repayment of such intercompany debt.



The Credit Facility requires IMC to meet certain financial tests, including,
but not limited to, a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum ratio of the sum of certain secured obligations as of any date to the collateral coverage amount (as defined in the
Credit Facility). Certain of such tests were amended on February 21, 2003 (February Amendment). Among other things, the February Amendment reduced the maximum permitted aggregate annual amount of capital expenditures, joint venture investments and
certain monetary acquisitions that IMC and its subsidiaries may make to $160.0 million for 2003 and $250.0 million thereafter. In addition, the maximum aggregate monetary acquisition consideration for certain types of future business acquisitions
was limited to $10.0 million. The February Amendment also modified the existing limitations on indebtedness to allow for a new secured financing up to $55.0 million, which financing was completed in May 2003. IMC was in compliance with the
provisions of the Credit Facility as amended by the February Amendment throughout 2003. Interest rates associated with the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility vary depending upon IMCs leverage ratio. With respect to the
Revolving Credit Facility, interest on this loan is calculated at either prime plus 150.0 to 225.0 basis points or LIBOR plus 250.0 to 325.0 basis points (depending on IMCs leverage ratio). Interest on the loans under the Term Loan Facility is
calculated at either prime

plus 275.0 to 300.0 basis points or LIBOR plus 375.0 to 400.0 basis points. Based on the amended pricing,
the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 325.0 basis points and LIBOR plus 400.0 basis points, respectively, as of December 31, 2003, which reflects a 25.0 basis point increase as a result of the February
Amendment.



The Notes are guaranteed by the same subsidiaries
of IMC that guaranteed the Credit Facility, except that MP Co. was designated as an unrestricted subsidiary in the fourth quarter of 2001 and is, therefore, no longer a guarantor of the Notes. MP Co. has immaterial assets and income and is the
managing general partner of IMC Phosphates.



Scheduled
maturities of long-term debt, excluding the Promissory Notes, for the next five years are as follows:

|9. | PENSION PLANS AND OTHER BENEFITS
|-- | --------------------------------



The individuals who perform services for IMC Phosphates are employed primarily by MP Co. MP Co. sponsors several qualified and nonqualified pension plans
(Pension Plans) and postretirement health care benefit plans that cover substantially all of its employees who perform services for IMC Phosphates. The U.S. salaried and non-union hourly pension plans were amended in 2003 to provide that no
participant will accrue any further benefits under such plan after March 31, 2003. The U.S. union pension plan was amended in 2003 to allow participants covered by a certain collective bargaining agreement to freeze benefit accruals under such plan
and begin participating in the defined contribution retirement plan feature of the U.S. union savings plan effective January 1, 2004. Additionally, represented employees with certain unions hired on or after June 1, 2003 are not eligible to
participate in the U.S. union pension plan. Postretirement health care benefit plans are either contributory or non-contributory and contain certain other cost sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. Employees are not vested in the
postretirement health care benefit plans and benefits are subject to changes. The expense related to all of the above plans is charged by MP Co. to IMC Phosphates.



The Pension Plans assets consist mainly of domestic corporate equity securities, U.S. government securities, corporate
debt securities, international equity securities, real estate investment funds, units of participation in a collective short-term investment fund and private equity funds. The weighted-average asset allocation of the Pension Plans assets as of
December 31 were:

|                  |  |      |   |  |      |  



The investment
objectives for the Pension Plans assets are as follows: (i) achieve a nominal annualized rate of return equal to or greater than the actuarially assumed investment return over ten to twenty-year periods; (ii) achieve an annualized rate of
return of the Consumer Price Index plus 5 percent over ten to twenty-year periods; (iii) realize annual, three and five-year annualized rates of returns consistent with or in excess of specific respective market

benchmarks at the individual asset class level; and (iv) achieve an overall return of the Pension
Plans assets consistent with or in excess of the total fund benchmark, which is a hybrid benchmark customized to reflect the trusts asset allocation and performance objectives. This benchmark is currently comprised of the following
indices and their respective weightings: 36 percent S&P 500, 9 percent Russell 2500, 5 percent equally weighted blend of Cambridge Venture and Private Equity indices, 15 percent Morgan Stanley Capital International World ex-U.S., 5 percent
Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets, 20 percent Lehmann Bond Aggregate, 5 percent Salomon Brothers Inflation Linked and 5 percent National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries Property.



The investment structure has an overall commitment to equity securities of
approximately 70 percent that is intended to provide the desired risk/return trade-off and, over the long-term, the level of returns sufficient to achieve IMCs investment goals and objectives for the Pension Plans assets while covering
near term cash flow obligations with fixed income in order to protect the Pension Plans from a forced liquidation of equities at the bottom of a cycle.



The approach used to develop the long-term rate of return combines an analysis of historical performance, the drivers of investment performance by asset
class, and current economic fundamentals. For returns, IMC utilized a building block approach starting with inflation expectations and added an expected real return to arrive at a long-term nominal expected return for each asset class. Long-term
expected real returns are derived in the context of future expectations of the U.S. Treasury real yield curve.



The retiree medical program for certain salaried and non-union retirees age 65 and over was terminated effective January 1, 2004. The retiree medical
program for salaried and non-union hourly retirees under age 65 will end at age 65. The retiree medical program for certain active salaried and non-union hourly employees was terminated effective April 1, 2003. Coverage changes and termination of
certain post-65 retiree medical benefits were effective April 1, 2003.



Certain changes were also made to the retiree medical program for U.S. union hourly employees of MP Co. effective June 1, 2003.Pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement, certain union represented employees hired on or after June
1, 2003, are not eligible to participate in the retiree medical program for U.S. union hourly employees of MP Co.



IMC reserves the right to amend, modify, or terminate the plans at any time at its sole discretion. Amendments, modifications, or termination of the plans
that have a financial impact of $0.5 million or more to IMC in any single year require the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Amendments, modifications, or termination of the plans that have a financial impact of less
than $0.5 million to IMC in any single year must be reviewed and approved by the Employee Benefits Committee. The expense related to all of the above plans is charged by MP Co. to IMC Phosphates.



In addition, MP Co. provides benefits such as workers compensation and
disability to certain former or inactive employees after employment but before retirement.

As of the September
30 measurement date, the total accumulated benefit obligation on the Pension Plans was $157.7 million and $145.6 million for 2003 and 2002, respectively.



MP Co. estimates that contributions to the Pension Plans will be $24.9 million in 2004. Contributions made to the other benefit plans are not expected to
exceed $1.5 million for 2004.



Certain MP Co. pension plans
had an accumulated benefit obligation and a projected benefit obligation in excess of plan assets. The aggregate accumulated benefit obligation of these underfunded plans was $157.7 million and $145.6 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. The aggregate projected benefit obligation of these underfunded plans was $157.7 million and $179.6 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The aggregate fair value of plan assets of these underfunded plans was $74.2
million and $76.9 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

In measuring the
Other Benefits benefit obligations, a 9.0 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered pre-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.0 percent in 2007 and thereafter; and a 9.5 percent annual
rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered post-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.5 percent in 2007 and thereafter.



The components of pension and other benefits costs for the year ended December 31 were as follows:

MP Co.s
actuarial assumptions used to determine net benefit costs were as follows:



|                               |  |               |   |  |                |   |  |      |   |  |      |

|                               |  | 2003          |   |  | 2002           |   |  | 2003 |   |  | 2002 |  
|Discount rate                  |  | 7.00          | % |  | 7.50           | % |  | 7.00 | % |  | 7.50 | %
|Expected return on plan assets |  | 9.00          | % |  | 9.50           | % |  |     |   |  |     |  
|Rate of compensation increase  |  | 4.75          | % |  | 4.75           | % |  |     |   |  |     |  



In measuring the
Other Benefits net benefit cost, a 10.0 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered pre-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.0 percent in 2008 and thereafter; and a 10.5 percent annual
rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered post-65 health care benefits was assumed for 2003 decreasing gradually to 5.5 percent in 2008 and thereafter.



If the health care trend rate assumptions were increased by 1.0 percent, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
would increase by 1.7 percent, or $0.5 million, as of December 31, 2003. This would have the effect of a 5.4 percent, or $0.2 million, increase on the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement health care benefit cost in
2003. If the health care trend rate assumptions were decreased by 1.0 percent, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation would decrease by 1.7 percent, or $0.5 million, as of December 31, 2003. This would have the effect of a 5.1 percent, or
$0.2 million, decrease on the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement health care benefit cost in 2003.

MP Co. also has defined contribution and pre-tax savings plans (Savings Plans) for certain employees.
Under each of the Savings Plans, participants are permitted to defer a portion of their compensation. MP Co. contributions to the Savings Plans are based on a percentage of employee contributions. The Savings Plans for salaried and non-union hourly
employees have a profit sharing feature. The MP Co. contribution to the profit sharing feature is based on the employees age and eligible pay as well as IMCs financial performance. Effective April 1, 2003, certain MP Co. participants in
the U.S. salaried and non-union hourly pension plan commenced participation in the profit sharing feature of the U.S. savings plan for salaried and non-union hourly employees. Effective June 1, 2003, pursuant to a certain collective bargaining
agreement, a defined contribution retirement plan feature was added to the union savings plan. MP Co. contributions to the defined contribution retirement plan feature is based on a percentage of employees eligible base pay. The union savings
plan became the primary retirement vehicle for certain MP Co. employees covered by a certain collective bargaining agreement who were hired on or after June 1, 2003. Additionally, represented employees with a certain union who were participants in
the union pension plan as of December 31, 2003, were given the option of remaining in such plan, or of becoming a participant in the union savings plan effective January 1, 2004. IMC Phosphates expense for the Savings Plans totaled $7.2
million, $5.1 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. In addition, MP Co. provides benefits such as workers compensation and disability to certain former or inactive employees after
employment but before retirement.

|--- | -----------------------------



IMC Phosphates purchases sulphur, natural gas and ammonia from third parties under contracts extending in some cases from one to four years. Purchases
under these contracts are generally based on prevailing market prices. IMC Phosphates is also in the third year of a seven year transportation contract for rock and in the second year of a ten year transportation and terminaling contract for
sulphur.



IMC Phosphates leases various types of properties,
including buildings and structures, railcars and various types of equipment through operating leases with terms generally ranging from one to ten years.



Summarized below is a schedule of future minimum long-term purchase commitments, based on December 31, 2003 market prices, and minimum lease payments
under non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2003:

Rental expense for 2003, 2002 and 2001 amounted to $17.9 million, $19.4 million and $16.1 million,
respectively. Spending on purchase commitments for 2003, 2002 and 2001 amounted to $379.7 million, $135.1 million and $178.4 million, respectively.



IMC Phosphates also sells phosphate rock and concentrated phosphates to customers and IMC under contracts extending in some cases for multiple years.
Sales under these contracts, except for certain phosphate rock sales, which are at prices based on IMC Phosphates cost of production, are generally at prevailing market prices.



In late 2003, PhosChem, of which IMC Phosphates is a member, reached an agreement through the year 2005 to supply diammonium
phosphate to CNAMPGC. Under the contracts terms, CNAMPGC will receive monthly shipments at prices reflecting the market price at the time of shipment. CNAMPGC is a state company with government authority for the import of fertilizers into
China.



Pine Level Property Reserves



In October 1996, IMC Phosphates signed an agreement with Consolidated
Minerals, Inc. (CMI) for the purchase of real property, Pine Level, containing 109.2 million tons of phosphate rock reserves. The Pine Level reserves are un-permitted phosphate proved and probable reserves in Manatee and Desoto counties with an
average grade of 65 percent BPL. In connection with the purchase, IMC Phosphates agreed to obtain all environmental, regulatory and related permits necessary to commence mining on the property.



When the permits necessary to commence mining the property have been
obtained, IMC Phosphates is obligated to pay CMI an initial royalty payment of $28.9 million (Initial Royalty). In January 2002, IMC Phosphates exercised its option to extend the permitting period until October 3, 2004, at a cost of $7.2 million,
plus interest charges, which will be applied toward the Initial Royalty. In addition to the Initial Royalty, IMC Phosphates is required to pay CMI a mining royalty on phosphate rock mined from the property to the extent the permits are obtained.



On the earlier of (a) ten days after the necessary mining
permits have been obtained, or (b) October 3, 2004, IMC Phosphates is required to either: (i) pay CMI the remainder of the Initial Royalty amount (Remainder Payment) of $21.7 million; or (ii) give notice to CMI of IMC Phosphates intent to not
make the Remainder Payment, and CMI will have an option to repurchase the property.



USAC Contract



In March
1994, IMC Phosphates signed an agreement with U.S. Agri-Chemicals (USAC) to supply phosphate rock until 2004. In November 1999, IMC Phosphates and USAC signed an agreement to extend the term until September 2014, with an option for a second
extension through September 2024 (New Extended Term). As part of the new agreement, USAC paid $57.0 million (Near Term Payment), plus interest charges, to IMC Phosphates during the year 2000. In the event IMC Phosphates and USAC fail to reach
agreement on the New Extended Term pricing, either party may elect to terminate the agreement with regard to the New Extended Term. In such event, IMC Phosphates may be required to refund a prorated share of the Near Term Payment. In addition, since
IMC Phosphates did not obtain permits for new mines at Ona or Pine Level by September 1, 2001, it can elect to terminate the agreement effective no later than October 1, 2007 upon three years advance written notice. If IMC so elected, IMC
Phosphates would be required to repay the amount of the Near Term payment plus interest charges and less a portion of the costs incurred by IMC in its efforts to obtain permitting. The Near Term Payment was recorded as deferred revenue and is being
amortized over the life of the original contract.



Environmental Matters



IMC Phosphates has
contingent environmental liabilities that arise principally from three sources: (i) facilities currently or formerly owned by IMC Phosphates or its predecessors; (ii) facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities; and (iii)
third-party Superfund or state equivalent sites.



At
facilities currently or formerly owned by IMC Phosphates or its corporate predecessors, including Freeport McMoRan Inc., PLP and their corporate predecessors, the historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal
nutrients and additives as well as by-product or process tailings have resulted in soil, surface water and groundwater contamination. Spills or other releases of regulated substances have occurred previously at these facilities, and potentially
could occur in the future, possibly requiring IMC Phosphates to

##### Table of Contents

undertake or fund cleanup. In some instances, IMC Phosphates has agreed, pursuant to consent orders or
agreements with the appropriate governmental agencies, to undertake certain investigations, which currently are in progress, to determine whether remedial action may be required to address contamination. At other locations, IMC Phosphates has
entered into consent orders or agreements with appropriate governmental agencies to perform required remedial activities that will address identified site conditions. Taking into consideration established accruals, expenditures for these known
conditions currently are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. However, material expenditures by IMC Phosphates could be required in the future to
remediate the contamination at these or at other current or former sites.



Superfund and equivalent state statutes impose liability without regard to fault or to the legality of a partys conduct on certain categories of persons who are considered to have contributed to the release of
hazardous substances into the environment. Under Superfund, or its various state analogues, one party may, under certain circumstances, be required to bear more than its proportionate share of cleanup costs at a site where it has
liability if payments cannot be obtained from other responsible parties. Currently, IMC Phosphates is involved or concluding involvement at less than five Superfund or equivalent state sites. IMC Phosphates remedial liability from these sites,
either alone or in the aggregate, currently is not expected to have a material adverse effect on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition. As more information is obtained regarding these sites and the potentially responsible parties
involved, this expectation could change.



IMC Phosphates
believes that, pursuant to several indemnification agreements, it is entitled to at least partial, and in many instances complete, indemnification for the costs that may be expended by IMC Phosphates to remedy environmental issues at certain
facilities. These agreements address issues that resulted from activities occurring prior to IMC Phosphates acquisition of facilities or businesses from private parties. IMC Phosphates has already received and anticipates receiving amounts
pursuant to the indemnification agreements for certain of its expenses incurred to date as well as future anticipated expenditures.



Other



Most of IMC Phosphates export sales of phosphate crop nutrients are marketed through PhosChem. As a member, IMC Phosphates is, subject to certain
conditions and exceptions, contractually obligated to reimburse PhosChem for its pro rata share of any operating expenses or other liabilities incurred. The reimbursements are made through reductions to members cash receipts from PhosChem.
During the second quarter of 2002, PhosChem entered into a new $65.0 million receivables purchase facility with a bank that replaced prior funding facilities. This facility supports PhosChems funding of its purchases of crop nutrients from IMC
Phosphates and other PhosChem members and is nonrecourse to IMC Phosphates.



IMC Phosphates has $119.8 million of non-current liabilities for reclamation activities, Gypstack closure and water treatment in its Florida and Louisiana operations, where to obtain necessary permits, it must either
pass a test of financial strength or provide credit support, typically surety bonds or financial guarantees. As of December 31, 2003 IMC Phosphates had $84.4 million in surety bonds outstanding which mature over the course of 2004, and met the
financial strength test for the remaining portion of such additional liabilities. In connection with the outstanding surety bonds, IMC Phosphates, through IMC, has posted $40.0 million of collateral in the form of letters of credit. There can be no
assurance that IMC Phosphates can continue to pass such tests of financial strength or to purchase surety bonds on the same terms and conditions. However, IMC Phosphates anticipates that it will be able to satisfy applicable credit support
requirements without disrupting normal business operations.



The State of Florida has begun formulating new financial assurance responsibility rules for closure and long-term care of Gypstacks. Such rules likely will become effective in 2004 and are expected to include more stringent financial tests
than the current rules, along with requirements that closure cost estimates include the cost of treating Gypstack water. IMC Phosphates currently recognizes both Gypstack closure costs and Gypstack water treatment costs as liabilities in accordance
with SFAS No.143.



In addition, IMC Phosphates has granted a
mortgage on approximately 22,000 previously mined acres of land in Florida with a net book value of approximately $14.0 million as security for certain reclamation costs in the event that an option granted to a third party to purchase the mortgaged
land is not exercised.

IMC Phosphates also has certain other contingent liabilities with respect to litigation and claims to
third parties arising in the ordinary course of business. IMC Phosphates does not believe that any of these contingent liabilities will have a material adverse impact on IMC Phosphates business or financial condition.

|13. | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
|--- | -----------------



In December 2003, IMC and PLP jointly announced that IMC was considering making a proposal to merge an affiliate of IMC with PLP, with each publicly held
partnership unit in PLP being converted into the right to receive 0.2 shares of IMC common stock (PLP unit exchange). In addition, IMC and PLP announced that Alpine Capital, L.P., Keystone, Inc. and The Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Foundation
(collectively, the largest public holders of PLP units) had agreed to support such a transaction. In January 2004, IMC presented the PLP unit exchange to the Board of Directors of PRP. On March 1, 2004, IMC and PLP announced that the Board of
Directors of PRP had unanimously approved the PLP unit exchange, and recommended that unitholders vote to approve the PLP unit exchange. The merger agreement relating to the PLP unit exchange is expected to be signed shortly, following the final
approval by the Board of Directors of IMC. Such approval is expected in the near future. The PLP unit exchange will be subject to certain conditions, including among other things, necessary regulatory approvals, action by the unitholders of PLP, and
other conditions which are customary for transactions of this nature involving publicly traded companies. The PLP unit exchange is not conditioned on the consummation of IMCs combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition referred to below. If the
combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition is consummated, and IMCs common stock is converted into the right to receive common stock of the newly formed company, then each former publicly held PLP unit will be converted into the right to receive
0.2 shares of common stock of the newly created company.



In
January 2004, IMC signed a definitive agreement with Cargill, Incorporated (Cargill) to combine IMCs and Cargills Crop Nutrition businesses to create a new, publicly traded company (Newco). The combination will be effected by the
contribution by Cargill to Newco of equity interests in entities owning all or substantially all of the assets, liabilities and obligations of the Cargill Crop Nutrition businesses, in exchange for the issuance by Newco of shares of common stock and
Class B common stock to Cargill. In addition, as part of the combination, a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco will be merged with and into IMC, with IMC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Newco. In the merger, each outstanding share of
IMCs common stock and preferred stock will be converted into one share of Newco common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. Cargill will own approximately 66.5 percent of Newcos common stock and IMCs common stockholders will
own approximately 33.5 percent of Newcos common stock. The combination is subject to regulatory approval in the U.S., Brazil, Canada, China and several other countries; the approval of IMCs stockholders; the completion of the PLP unit
exchange; and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Subject to completion of the closing conditions contained in the definitive agreement, IMC anticipates the transaction will close in the summer of 2004.



The terms of the preferred stock of Newco into which shares of IMCs
preferred stock will be converted in the merger will be substantially identical to the terms of IMCs preferred stock, but the Newco preferred stock will also have the right to vote on all matters submitted to the vote of Newcos common
stockholders. The Newco preferred stock will carry one vote per share and will vote together as a single class with the common stock of Newco.

##### Table of Contents

The agreement with Cargill restricts IMC from taking certain actions without Cargills consent until
the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, as follows: (i) IMC and its subsidiaries are prohibited from incurring or assuming any long-term or short-term debt or issuing any debt securities (except as
permitted by the terms of the Credit Facility and the indentures governing IMCs notes); (ii) cash dividends on IMCs common stock are limited to regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.02 per share per quarter; (iii) dividends on
IMCs preferred stock are limited to $0.9375 per share per quarter; (iv) IMC and its subsidiaries may not issue or sell capital stock except in limited circumstances that include, among others, the issuance of stock in connection with the
conversion of PLP units into common stock of IMC as described above and sales pursuant to existing benefit plans; and (v) IMC and its subsidiaries may not repurchase IMCs capital stock except in limited circumstances. IMCs stockholder
rights plan was amended on January 26, 2004 so that the preferred stock purchase rights will not become exercisable as a result of the acquisition of IMCs common stock pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the definitive agreement
for the combination with Cargill Crop Nutrition.
