Cautionary Statement
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements in which FCX discusses its potential
future performance. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than
statements of historical facts, such as those statements regarding projected ore grades and milling rates, projected
production and sales volumes, projected unit net cash costs, projected operating cash flows,
projected capital expenditures, exploration efforts and results, mine production and
development plans, the impact of deferred intercompany profits on earnings, liquidity, other financial
commitments and tax rates, the impact of copper, gold, molybdenum and cobalt price changes,
reserve estimates, future dividend payments and potential share purchases, and
estimated EBITDA for 2013 assuming completion of the pending acquisitions. The words “anticipates,” “may,”
“can,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,”
“expects,” “projects,” “intends,” “likely,” “will,” “should,” “to be,” and any similar expressions are
intended to identify those assertions as forward-looking statements. The declaration of
dividends is at the discretion of FCX's Board and will depend on FCX's financial
results, cash requirements, future prospects, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.
This presentation also includes forward-looking statements regarding mineralized material
not included in reserves. The mineralized material described in this presentation will
not qualify as reserves until comprehensive engineering studies establish their economic feasibility. Accordingly
no assurance can be given that the estimated mineralized material not included in reserves
will become proven and probable reserves. FCX cautions readers that
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and its actual results may differ materially from
those anticipated, projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements. Important
factors that can cause FCX's actual results to differ materially from those anticipated
in the forward-looking statements include commodity prices, mine sequencing, production rates, industry risks,
regulatory changes, political risks, the outcome of ongoing discussions with the Indonesian
government, the potential effects of violence in Indonesia, the resolution of
administrative disputes in the Democratic Republic of Congo, weather-and climate-related risks, labor relations,
environmental risks, litigation results, currency translation risks, risks associated with
completion of the pending acquisitions and other factors described in more detail under
the heading “Risk Factors” in FCX's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as updated by our subsequent filings with
the SEC. Investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions on which FCX's
forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after its
forward-looking statements are made, including for example commodity prices, which FCX
cannot control, and production volumes and costs, some aspects of which FCX may or may
not be able to control. Further, FCX may make changes to its business plans that could or will affect its
results. FCX cautions investors that it does not intend to update forward-looking
statements more frequently than quarterly notwithstanding any changes in FCX's
assumptions, changes in business plans, actual experience or other changes, and FCX undertakes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statements.
This presentation also contains certain financial measures such as unit net cash costs per
pound of copper and per pound of molybdenum. As required by SEC Regulation G,
reconciliations of these measures to amounts reported in FCX's consolidated financial statements are in the
supplemental schedule, “Product Revenues and Production Costs,” beginning on page
VII, which is also available on FCX's website, “www.fcx.com.”

Preliminary estimate of consolidated contained copper resources using a long-term copper price of $2.20/lb. Mineralized Material is not included in reserves and
will not qualify as reserves until comprehensive engineering studies establish their economic
feasibility. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the estimated mineralized
material will become proven and probable reserves. See Cautionary Statement. at $2.00 Cu

Estimates assume average prices of $3.25/lb for copper, $1,400/oz for gold, $11/lb for
molybdenum and $12/lb for cobalt for the remainder of 2013. Quarterly unit costs will
vary significantly with quarterly metal sales volumes. Unit net cash costs would change
by ~$0.015/lb for each $50/oz change in gold and $0.01/lb for each $2/lb change in
molybdenum.
(2)
Production costs include profit sharing in South America and severance taxes in North
America.
(3)
Higher 2014e Grasberg volumes would have an approximate $0.15/lb favorable impact on 2013e
consolidated cash unit costs

Includes molybdenum produced in South America
