Executive Summary Smithfield Foods has valuable assets. This potential will not be realized without an overhaul in strategic direction, significant operational improvements and balance sheet maximization • As a long term investor and currently the Company’s 2nd largest shareholder (~6.2% stake(1) vs. combined Management and Board’s ~2%), Continental Grain Company is compelled to respond to the recent SFD Investor Presentation, which was disappointing and failed to address the issues raised in our recent memo to the Board • The Smithfield April 2013 investor presentation presents a distorted picture of the Company Dismisses value that can be unlocked through structuring and managing the business in a more efficient manner • outright the • Seeks to justify a “business as usual approach” despite destroying shareholder value since Larry Pope and the current management team took over in Sept. 2006 (SFD stock price return of -15% underperformed S&P500 and peers(2) by 34% and 106% underperformance, respectively) • Demonstrates an unwillingness to address the issues that hamper SFD’s valuation and total shareholder returns, which are in the lowest quartile vs. peers since Sept. 2006 (. vs. Peer(2) median and top peer of 127% and 171%, respectively) • Drawing from our long history in agribusiness, Continental Grain Company has developed an action plan designed to create substantial value • Consider splitting the Company into three independent companies by divesting underperforming / highly volatile Hog assets Production and select European segment • Reinvest proceeds in additional share repurchases • Institute an annual dividend with a payout ratio in line with peers • Restructure to achieve profitability levels in line with peers • corporate governance directors and managers with relevant experience and tying management 3 Improve by adding new compensation to shareholder returns We believe our plan, if executed appropriately, will achieve a stock price for SFD of $40 per share in 3 years (1) Includes affiliates.

2 Strategic Considerations Regarding Hog Production & International Divisions • Source verification and quality control are critical, but why does Smithfield feel that they need to own all of this business? Hog Production profitability has been steadily decreasing Hog Production is a highly volatile business Management has described the business as a drag on profitability and not its focus Hog g gp y No other major public pork processor or packaged meats company owns significant hog production assets • Peers do not have issues with either pork quality or quantity • Smithfield already slaughters nearly twice as many hogs as it produces, requiring Production y g y y g p , q g purchases from the outside • We recognize that the International business has been profitable as of late, but is this business, as currently configured, best positioned to create value for SFD shareholders? Disparate concentrated in Eastern Europe but also including assets in assortment of assets the U.K. and Mexico Limited overlap and no obvious synergies with U.S. pork businesses Sub-scale and low productivity to earnings given both impact International 17 Highly volatile the business mix and the FX Campofrio has consistently destroyed shareholder value over the past 5 years Current Intl. strategy significantly undervalues China, the world’s largest pork market

2 Hog Production Profitability has been Steadily Decreasing • SFD states that average hog production industry returns are $6.88/head since 1975 • Average industry profitability has been negative in the last five years and only marginally profitable over last 20 years Hog Production Industry, Average P&L per Head $6.88 $2.19 $1.94 $3.97 $4.00 $8.00 ($5.66) ($8.00) ($4.00) $0.00 L L L L L Last 37 Years Last 20 Years Last 15 Years Last 10 Years Last 5 Years 18 Source: Estimated returns farrow to finish hog production in Iowa; Iowa State University (per Smithfield April 2013 Investor Presentation).

2 Hog Production – In Management’s Own Words “ What we're doing is taking out volatility. We are not trying to maximize the profitability of the hog farm It seems hard to have that discussion But we're not We're trying to measured more farm. discussion. we re not. We re have a and predictable hog production segment because we're trying to use the hog production to be part and advance the meat business. Our business is the meat business, not the live production business. So we're using live production to feed that and what we're trying to do is take the volatility, yes.” - Larry Pope, Q2 FY 2013 Earnings Call Management has stated that Hog Production is a major drag on “ I think while as we have said again and again and again we believe that side of the business is going to be more volatile. Given the impact of the ethanol policy of this country on corn pricing that that's going to be much more volatile than it has in the past and that's one of the reasons we have cut back our exposure to the live production side of the business, because we don't think it's going to be as as it was in the past and volatility surrounding j g profitability and not the Company’s focus profitable we think there is going to be a lot more that.” - Larry Pope, Q1 FY 2011 Earnings Call “ The big issue is that I think that the losses in Hog Production are coming to an end, and coming to an end pretty quickly right now. And so that has been a severe drain on this P&L and has dragged the stock down and I understand that. People don't know when this is going to turn around.” - Larry Pope, Q1 FY 2011 Earnings Call “ F d i I' ll b i i i b h b i W ' hi 21 From my standpoint, I've actually never been more optimistic about the business. We've got one thing that‘s impacting this business. That's live hog production.” - Larry Pope, Q1 FY 2010 Earnings Call

2 China – In Need of a More Thoughtful Strategy • Current China strategy consists of exporting low value products (offal) and relying on sporadic & volatile carcass exports to China • We believe this significantly undervalues the world’s largest pork market • COFCO (former 5% shareholder) provided an opportunity to work with a leading Chinese agriculture operator • Smithfield chose to not pursue a true collaborative and working relationship with COFCO, resulting in COFCO’s resigning its board seat and ultimately selling its stock back to SFD • Smithfield needs to formulate a leverages the Company’s strength and and articulate China strategy that Company s seeks to enhance its position in the world’s largest pork market • Potential strategic initiatives include: • Sell U.S. pork in the form of carcasses and higher value parts • Market Smithfield brands to Chinese consumers, as Hormel has done very successfully , y y • Hormel branded products are found in almost all major Chinese supermarkets and sell at twice the value of local brands • Selective investments in China’s pork industry with best-in-class local partners World Pork Production(1) h World Pork Consumption(1) h 49% 22% 10% 3% 15% China EU Other U.S. Brazil 50% 21% 8% 3% 19% China Other U.S. Russia 24 Current strategy undervalues importance of Chinese Market EU Source: U.S. Census Bureau, Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2012.

1 Hog Production Divestiture Considerations Plan and Rationale Illustrative Valuation of Hog Production • For sake of conservatism, valuing off 20 Year Historical average, vs. 37- f Last 20 Year Avg. P&L Avg. P&L per Hog $2.19 • SFD sells majority stake (51%) in order to de-consolidate from financials • Allows SFD shareholders to share Business’s year average of $6.88 highlighted by SFD in April 2013 Investor Presentation Annual Hogs Sold (mm) 15.8 FY'12 D&A 72 Illustrative ~$100 in the improvement and creates optionality for full sale • Universe of potential partners would include large hog producers who have EBITDA Illustrative Multiple 4.0x $400 5.0x $500 g gp production expertise and/or Asian based investors with an interest in a guaranteed pork supply • Ensure supply post transaction via i f l Gross Proceeds to SFD: $200 - $250 mm Based on historical industry margins and Smithfield’s historical production, Wall Street analysts value Hog Production value at 4.0x – 5.0x(1) execution of a supply agreement 30 y g p we believe Hog Production could be worth between $400 and $500 million, and generate immediate proceeds of +$200 million to Smithfield assuming 51% sale Source: Bank of America, Credit Suisse, and JPMorgan research.

1 International Segment Divestiture Considerations Smithfield European Assets (Poland, Romania, U.K.) International Peer Multiples (EV / LTM EBITDA) • Romania/Poland assets contribute 94% of segment revenue; estimated ~$150mm in EBITDA • Based on International segment LTM EBITDA of ~$160 million 6.0x Bell AG • Given obvious linkages between Mexican JVs and core business, it would be retained 5.9x Campofrio Plan for Campofrio A i i l d hi db d ih 5.4x HKScan Oyj • Appoint executive leadership and board with relevant European CPG experience • Board membership is a distraction to Smithfield executives; should resign in favor of handpicked representatives with experience Wall Street analysts value International Segment at 4.5x – 7.0x(1) turnaround • Smithfield to work with Oaktree (24% owner) to restructure Campofrio and position for a potential sale to a European strategic bidder 31 We believe the European assets could be worth up to $1 billion and divesting would remove a distraction and allow Smithfield to reinvest the proceeds in its core business Source: FactSet as of 4/19/2013.
