Item 1

Establishment of a Search Committee for a New Chairman

After serving about 10 years on ICL’s Board of Directors from which about 9 years as its Chairman, Mr. Nir Gilad will retire from the Company’s Board at September 1, 2016. Under his leadership ICL has significantly broadened its businesses globally, balanced its product portfolio and has become more resilient against individual commodity market downturns. The Board expressed its appreciation and respect for the contributions made by Mr. Gilad.

The Board has formed a Search Committee comprised of two board members: Mr. Yaacov Dior, director of the Company's Board, and Mr. Ron Moskovitz. The Committee will determine its order of work and will identify suitable candidates and propose the nomination to the full Board for election, no later than by May 1, 2016. The Company intends to invite a special shareholders meeting in August 2016 to approve appointment of the newly elected candidate as well as his terms of tenure, and by this allow an orderly overlap between Mr. Gilad and the new elected Chairman.

At the same time, the Board wishes to express its full appreciation for the current CEO Stefan Borgas and his management team. In close alignment with the Board, the management under Mr. Borgas’ leadership will continue to execute ICL’s Next Step Forward strategy which builds ICL’s global integrated business by balancing growth, cost reduction and strong shareholder return based on a solid, investment grade rated balance sheet.
