NYSE ANNUAL CEO CERTIFICATION  FCX BENEFICIAL OWNERS TAX WITHHOLDING – NONRESIDENT ALIEN STOCKHOLDERS In February 2005, the Board of Directors authorized a supplemental common stock dividend of $0.50 per share to be paid on March 31, 2005,  to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2005. The supplemental divi- dend to be paid in March represents an addition to FCX’s regular quarterly  common stock dividend of $0.25 per share and the supplemental dividend  of $0.25 per share paid in December 2004. Nonresident aliens who own stock in a U.S. corporation are generally sub- ject to a federal withholding tax on 100 percent of the dividends paid on  that stock. However, when 80 percent or more of a corporation’s income  is generated outside the U.S., the withholding percentage is not calcu- lated on 100 percent of the dividend but rather on that portion of the  dividend attributable to income generated in the U.S. FCX has determined  that, for quarterly dividends and supplemental dividends paid in 2004  to nonresident alien stockholders, none of the total dividend amount is  subject to federal withholding tax because none of our income is from  U.S. sources. For quarterly dividends paid in 2005, FCX estimates that none of the total  dividend amount is subject to federal withholding tax. For additional information, please contact the Investor Relations  Department. As reflected in our 2005 proxy statement, the beneficial owners of  more than five percent of our outstanding Class B common stock as of  December 31, 2004, are Capital Research and Management Company (12.1 percent), FMR Corp. (10.8 percent) and Pioneer Global Asset  Management S.p.A. (6.2 percent).
