Stockholder Return Performance Presentation<br />
The graph that follows shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing made by <strong>FMC</strong><br />
under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.<br />
The following Stockholder Performance Graph compares the five-year cumulative total return on <strong>FMC</strong>’s<br />
Common Stock for the period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2009 with the S&P 500 Index and the S&P<br />
500 Chemicals Index. The comparison assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2004 in <strong>FMC</strong>’s Common<br />
Stock and in both of the indices, and the reinvestment of all dividends.<br />
In August 2009, <strong>FMC</strong>’s Common Stock was added to the S&P 500 Index and the S&P 500 Chemicals Index<br />
and is no longer included in the S&P Midcap 400 Index or the S&P 400 Chemicals Index. For the five year<br />
period shown in the Stockholder Performance Graph, there was no material difference in the performance of our<br />
former broad market index and industry group index, on the one hand, and our new broad market index and<br />
industry group index, on the other hand.<br />
