Explanation of Responses: (1) E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company ("DuPont"), a Delaware corporation, is party to a shareholder agreement with Purple Acquisition Corporation, a Mississippi corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of DuPont, and certain shareholders of ChemFirst Inc. (collectively, the "Shareholder") dated as of July 23, 2002 (the "Shareholder Agreement"). Pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement, DuPont has shared voting power with respect to 1,198,664 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of ChemFirst Inc. (which shares constitute approximately 8.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ChemFirst Inc.). In addition, DuPont will have shared voting power with respect to any additional shares of capital stock of ChemFirst Inc. acquired by the Shareholder after the date of the Shareholder Agreement and during the term of the Shareholder Agreement. As of the date of the Shareholder Agreement, the Shareholder owned options to acquire 452,900 shares of common stock of ChemFirst, Inc. (which options, if fully exercised, would increase the Shareholder's ownership interest in ChemFirst Inc. to 11.3%, assuming that no other additional shares of ChemFirst Inc. common stock are issued). DuPont may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of common stock of ChemFirst Inc. that are subject to the Shareholder Agreement (the "Subject Shares") pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); however, DuPont does not have a "pecuniary interest" (as such term is defined in Section 16a-1(a)(2) of the Exchange Act) in the Subject Shares. Accordingly, the amount of securities of ChemFirst Inc. reported as beneficially owned by DuPont in Item 2 of Table I in this Form 3 is zero. Neither the filing of this Form 3 nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by DuPont that it is the beneficial owner of any of the common stock of ChemFirst Inc. referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed. DuPont also disclaims any interest in any shares of common stock of ChemFirst Inc. held by any of its affiliated employee benefit plans, including pension funds and medical and dental funds, and by certain affiliated entities which may hold such shares for charitable purposes. ** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a). Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure. Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB Number. E. I.
