The Offering is expected to settle on June 16, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including listing of the Notes for trading on the institutional investor trading platform operated by the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. (known as "TASE UP").


ICL intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including the repayment, in part or in full, of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility which matures in April 2030 (the "Revolving Credit Facility") (following such repayment, the Revolving Credit Facility will remain available to ICL in accordance with its terms), the repayment of other debt, capital expenditures, investments and acquisitions, supporting our strategy.


The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Unless they are registered under the Securities Act or the securities law of any applicable state, Israel or any other jurisdiction, the Notes may not be offered or sold within the United States, Israel or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act), or to any Israeli residents, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, the Israeli Securities Law, 1968 (the "Israeli Securities Law") and applicable laws of other jurisdictions.


Accordingly, ICL is offering and selling the Notes only (a) in the United States to persons reasonably believed to be "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A) ("QIBs"), in compliance with Rule 144A; and (b) in offshore transactions complying with Regulation S to persons reasonably believed to be Qualifying Investors. "Qualifying Investor" means a non-U.S. person (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) that is also: (i) a QIB, (ii) an institutional investor as set forth in Section 15A(b)(1) of the Israeli Securities Law and that has provided the requisite certification under the First Addendum to the Israeli Securities Law or complies with the criteria of the Israel Securities Authority for investors incorporated outside Israel as set forth in Section 15A(b)(2) of the Israeli Securities Law (a "Qualified Israeli Investor") or (iii) a person described in sub-paragraph (1) of Section I of Annex II to Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II") who is authorized or regulated by a member state ("Member State") of the European Economic Area or a person described in sub-paragraph (3) of Section I of Annex II to MiFID II (a "Qualified European Investor") or a person described in sub-paragraph 3(a) of Schedule 1 to Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("UK MiFIR") who is authorized or regulated in the United Kingdom or a person described in sub-paragraph 3(c) of Schedule 1 to UK MiFIR (a "Qualified UK Investor"); provided that in relation to offers of Notes in any Member State or the United Kingdom, "Qualifying Investor" shall only include Qualified European Investors or Qualified UK Investors, as applicable; in the case of the European Economic Area, such offers will be subject to Article 2(e) of the Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 and, in the case of the United Kingdom, paragraph 15 of Schedule 1 to the Public Offers and Admissions to Trading Regulations 2024 (the "POATRs").


In addition, in the United Kingdom, the offering memorandum has not been approved for the purposes of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended (the "FSMA") by an authorized person under FSMA.


In the United Kingdom, the offering memorandum and any other material in relation to the securities described therein are being distributed only to, and are directed only at, persons who are "qualified investors" (as defined in paragraph 15 of Schedule 1 to the POATRs) who are (i) persons having professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the "Financial Promotion Order"), (ii) high net worth entities falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Financial Promotion Order, or (iii) any other person to whom it may otherwise lawfully be distributed (all such persons together being referred to as "Relevant Persons"). The securities are only available to, and any invitation, offer or agreement to subscribe, purchase or otherwise acquire such securities will be made only with, Relevant Persons. The offering memorandum and its contents are confidential and should not be distributed, published or reproduced (in whole or in part) or disclosed by any recipients to any other person in the United Kingdom. Any person in the United Kingdom that is not a Relevant Person should not act or rely on the offering memorandum or its contents.


Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors - The Notes described in this announcement are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.


MiFID II Product Governance / Professional Investors and ECPs Only Target Market - Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the securities has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the securities is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the securities to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the securities (a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturer's target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the securities (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.


Prohibition of Sales to UK Retail Investors - The Notes described in this announcement are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is either one (or both) of the following: (i) not a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of UK MiFIR; or (ii) not a qualified investor as defined in paragraph 15 of Schedule 1 to the POATRs. Consequently, no disclosure document required by the FCA Product Disclosure Sourcebook ("DISC") for offering, selling or distributing the securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the United Kingdom has been prepared and therefore offering, selling or distributing the securities or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom may be unlawful under DISC and the Consumer Composite Investments (Designated Activities) Regulations 2024.


UK MIFIR Product Governance / Professional Investors and ECPs Only Target Market - Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the securities has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the securities is only eligible counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook ("COBS"), and professional clients, as defined in UK MiFIR; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the securities to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. A distributor, being a person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the securities, should take into consideration the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules") is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the securities (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
