MSCI and FTSE Announce Index Changes for OCI N.V. to Reflect Tender
Offer Results


OCI N.V. announced today that it has been classified in MSCI and FTSE
indices to reflect the buyout of Orascom Construction Industries S.A.E.
(OCI S.A.E.).

MSCI announced that OCI S.A.E. will now be deleted from the MSCI Egypt
Index as of the close of business on August 13 and OCI N.V. will be
added to the mid-cap segment of the MSCI Netherlands Index. MSCI will
likely issue a notice 10 days prior to the index implementation. OCI
N.V. will be admitted to the MSCI Netherlands Index with 201,616,948
shares. During the next six months, this figure is expected to change
as OCI N.V. continues to buyout the remaining shares on the Egyptian
Stock Exchange (EGX) for EGP 255 per share. The Company will issue
intermittent updates with the regards to any changes in share count.

Similarly, FTSE announced that OCI S.A.E. will now be deleted from the
FTSE All World Index and the FTSE All-Emerging Index and OCI N.V. will
be added to the FTSE All World Index, the FTSE World Index
Ex-Multinationals and the FTSE Global Style Index. The implementation
took place on 31 July 2013 and effective trading will begin on 1 August
2013.

In addition to these index changes, OCI N.V. is taking the necessary
steps to convert the Company's primary trading line currency on the
NYSE Euronext in Amsterdam from US Dollars to Euros. Further details on
the mechanics of the change will be announced in due course.
