All statements in this communication, other than those relating to historical facts, are “forward-looking statements.”

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to a number of

assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause actual results to differ

materially from such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our

expectations include, among others: the volatility of natural gas prices in North America; the cyclical nature of our

business and the agricultural sector; the global commodity nature of our fertilizer products, the impact of global supply

and demand on our selling prices, and the intense global competition from other fertilizer producers; conditions in the

U.S. agricultural industry; reliance on third party providers of transportation services and equipment; difficulties in the

implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system and risks associated with cyber security; weather

conditions; our ability to complete our recently announced production capacity expansion projects on schedule as

planned and on budget or at all; risks associated with other expansions of our business, including unanticipated

adverse consequences and the significant resources that could be required; potential liabilities and expenditures

related to environmental and health and safety laws and regulations; our potential inability to obtain or maintain

required permits and governmental approvals or to meet financial assurance requirements from governmental

authorities; future regulatory restrictions and requirements related to greenhouse gas emissions; the seasonality of the

fertilizer business; the impact of changing market conditions on our forward sales programs; risks involving derivatives

and the effectiveness of our risk measurement and hedging activities; the significant risks and hazards involved in

producing and handling our products against which we may not be fully insured; our reliance on a limited number of

key facilities; risks associated with joint ventures; acts of terrorism and regulations to combat terrorism; difficulties in

securing the supply and delivery of raw materials, increases in their costs and or delays or interruptions in their

delivery; risks associated with international operations; losses on our investments in securities; deterioration of global

market and economic conditions; our ability to manage our indebtedness; and loss of key members of management

and professional staff. More detailed information about factors that may affect our performance may be found in our

filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent periodic reports filed on Form 10-K

and Form 10-Q, which are available in the Investor Relations section of the CF Industries Web site. Forward-looking

statements are given only as of the date of this communication and we disclaim any obligation to update or revise the

A tightly focused strategy…

Page 22: CF Industries Investor Day 11 Jun 2013

22

Agricultural and

Nitrogen Themes

Corn prices around $5 per bushel is a “sweet spot” for fertilizer industry

− Farm income remains high

− Crop returns continue to favor corn and plantings are projected to continue at 92+

million acres

− Corn demand should recover in 2013, especially for feed and exports, and show

growth through 2016

− U.S. fertilizer demand is forecast to decline slightly next year, but remain at historically

high levels through 2016

World nitrogen demand shows consistent 2% growth

− Global nitrogen demand growth is equivalent to over 6 million product tons of urea or

about 4-5 new plants each year (net of closures)

− Global 2013 urea cost curve suggests strong support at $320-$340/st at U.S. Gulf

− Although numerous projects have been announced for the next three years, historically

only about 50% to 60% come onstream

− These nitrogen capacity additions are not expected to have a material impact on the

hypothetical margin available to North American producers

♦ North America currently imports about 38% of its total nitrogen use from offshore

– For planning purposes, CF Industries assumes that 6 million tons of new ammonia

capacity will be added in North America, mostly in 2016 to 2018

– This new capacity should displace offshore nitrogen imports, which would decline by

about 40%

Page 23: CF Industries Investor Day 11 Jun 2013

23

The Season Average Corn Price has

risen over the last decade due to:

− Increasing feed, food and export

demand

− Adoption of Renewable Fuels Standard

(RFS)

− Reduced production due to drought

conditions

U.S. corn price is projected to decline

to around $5 per bushel in 2013 as

production recovers due to high

planted acreage and higher yields

− Farmers and ethanol producers are

highly profitable at this level

− Demand is projected to recover with

lower prices, especially for feed and

exports

The 2013 estimated average corn

budget shows that corn returns over

variable costs are $163 per acre higher

than soybean returns, based on an

average of March-April new crop

futures for 2013

Farmer economics favor corn planting

over soybeans in 2014

Based on current new crop 2014

futures, returns over variable costs

are $194 per acre higher for corn than

soybeans

Assumptions include: − Trend yields

− March/April average for new crop prices and

for 2014 calculation using corn price of $5.60

per bushel and soybean price of $12.80

− USDA costs of production and CF Industries’

forecast of costs for 2014

expected to increase, but is highly

dependent on the actual yield

2013 plantings and emergence have

been delayed substantially and are

expected to result in lower planted corn

acres compared with USDA’s

Prospective Plantings report

Production forecast: − CF Industries forecasts a 155 bu/acre corn yield

and a $5.00 season average corn price

− If corn yields decline to 150 bu/acre, the stocks-

increased while fertilizer costs as a

percentage of farm revenue have

decreased

As a percent of corn revenue, U.S.

fertilizer costs are projected to stay

below the 10-year average of 20%,

indicating fertilizer offers a good return

on investment

Assumptions for 2014 include:

− Average annual corn price of $5.00 per

Global nitrogen demand growth is

projected to slow from the prior decade

to a rate of about 2.0% per year, or

about 3 million nutrient tons a year

The annual nitrogen demand growth is

equivalent to over 6 million product tons

of urea or about 4-5 new plants each

year (net of closures)

Industrial use is projected to grow at

3.4% per year, largely due to increasing

demand for emissions control

CF Industries examines global urea

capacity ex-China to reflect the

world trade situation more

accurately

China’s export policy is more

important than its actual capacity

Based on announced projects, urea

production capacity would be

expected to increase by

approximately 22 million tonnes,

ex-China, by 2016

Lists of future projects typically

overestimate actual capacity

brought online by as much as 50%

Forecast Actual

CF Industries compared FERTECON’s

list of future urea projects at the

beginning of each year to the actual

capacity that came onstream

− On average, 50% of the total forecast

capacity came onstream by the end of the

year

IFA recently noted a similar situation with

their nitrogen capacity list

− Comparing the 2012 list with the current

list, IFA stated:

“At least 25 urea projects were delayed,

accounting for 60% of the announced

capacity by 2016. These delays have

removed up to 18 Mt of planned urea

capacity that had been foreseen for 2016

in the forecast of May 2012.”

Domestic shipments are expected to

continues to drive stable phosphate

demand

However, greater competition in

international market continues to weigh

on the export market

This is due to both higher supplies from

Morocco and Saudi Arabia and recently

lower demand in India due to decreasing

subsidies

− For ethanol producers, feedlot operators and corn exporters

− For the fertilizer industry

♦ The global 2013 urea cost curve suggests strong support at $320-$340/st

for US Gulf

♦ Nitrogen capacity additions are not expected to have a material impact on

CF Industries Has Significant

Cost and Logistical Advantages

CF Industries has a significant and enduring cost advantage from North

American natural gas

− The company’s natural gas consumption to increase from 700 MCF / day to 1 BCF /

day with capacity expansion projects

− Exploration, development and production companies have realized greater

efficiencies, lowering the cost of gas

− Unique attributes of the North American natural gas environment help provide a

sustainable cost advantage

CF Industries’ production, storage and distribution assets are competitive

differentiators

− Manufacturing flexibility and locations throughout North America

− Supply chain from raw material and natural gas procurement to transportation to

distribution

Flexibility and nimbleness enable optimization of assets

Key Value Drivers

96

Enduring feedstock cost advantage

− Lower, less volatile natural gas prices

− Significant cost advantage to Chinese coal-based nitrogen production, Eastern European

gas-based nitrogen production

− U.S. shale gas evolution difficult to replicate at scale elsewhere

Ammonia storage advantage

− Storage terminals provide opportunity to realize both seasonal and regional price differences

− Allows CF Industries to maximize higher-margin agricultural sales and provides flexibility to

negotiate better industrial sales

Transportation cost advantage

− Facilities located near or in world’s most productive corn growing region

− Significant landed-cost differential versus imports and low-cost inland transportation options

− Transportation advantage exists for potential exports from Donaldsonville to Central and

South American locations

Production efficiency advantage

− High capacity utilization rates

− Attractive investments in debottlenecking

Integrated phosphate advantage versus non-integrated producers

Source: CF

Note: Based on 2012 actual nitrogen segment gross margins plus DD&A.

Assumes that a $25 per ton change in urea price is equivalent to a $17.39 per

ton change in UAN price and a $44.57 per ton change in ammonia price.

The fundamentals of global nitrogen

product pricing and North American

natural gas costs give CF Industries

an attractive earnings profile

The company’s existing nitrogen

business profile can be highly

profitable across a broad range of

industry conditions

This analysis provides confidence for

the new investments in nitrogen

Reconciliation of non-GAAP

Measures – CF Industries

110

We have presented EBITDA, EBITDA as a % of sales,

Enterprise Value to EBITDA, total debt to EBITDA, Dividends

& Share Repurchases as a % of EBITDA and Dividends &

Share Repurchases as a % of Equity Market Value because

management uses these measures to track the company’s

performance in comparison to its peers and believes that

these are frequently used by securities analysts, investors

and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in

our industry.

Notes:

(1) EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to

common stockholders plus interest expense

(income)-net, income taxes, and depreciation,

depletion and amortization. Other adjustments

include the elimination of loan fee amortization that is

included in both interest and amortization, and the

portion of depreciation that is included in non-

controlling interest.

(2) Share price as of the end of the applicable period.

(3) Enterprise value to EBITDA is defined as enterprise

value divided by EBITDA. Enterprise value is defined

as equity market value as of the period ending date

plus debt minus cash. Equity market value is defined

as shares outstanding multiplied by share price.

(4) Adjusted Debt includes the $1.5 billion of senior notes

issued May 20, 2013.

(5) Dividends & Share Repurchases as a percent of

EBITDA is defined as average dividends paid and

share repurchases for the specified time period

divided by average EBITDA for the specified period.

(6) Dividends & Share Repurchases as a percent of

Equity Market Value defined as average dividends

paid plus share repurchases for the specified time

period divided by the daily average equity market

value for the specified time period.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP

Measures – CF Industries

111

We have presented Total Debt to Equity Market Value, Free

Cash Flow to Total Debt, Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)

and Return on Equity (ROE) because management uses

these measures to track the company’s performance in

comparison to its peers and believes that these are frequently

used by securities analysts, investors and other interested

parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

Invested capital, stockholders equity and each of their

components are period-end amounts and not average

amounts.

Notes:

(1) Adjusted Debt includes the $1.5 billion of senior notes

issued May 20, 2013.

(2) Total Debt to Equity Market Value is defined as total

debt divided by Equity Market Value. Total debt is

defined as all debt for the specified time period.

Equity Market Value is defined as shares outstanding

multiplied by the share price.

(3) Free Cash Flow to Total Debt is defined as operating

cash flow minus capital expenditures, dividends paid

and minority interest divided by all debt.

(4) ROIC is defined as after tax operating income divided

by invested capital. After tax operating income is

defined as operating income times the net of 1 minus

a standard tax rate of 35% (operating income x (1- tax

rate of 35%)). Invested capital is defined as net debt

plus stockholders equity. Net debt is defined as all

debt plus minority interests (Non-controlling Interest)

minus cash.

(5) ROE is defined as net earnings divided by

stockholders equity.

(6) Share price as of the end of the applicable period.

(7) Enterprise value to EBITDA is defined as enterprise

value divided by EBITDA. Enterprise value is defined

as equity value plus debt minus cash. Equity value is

defined as shares outstanding multiplied by share

price.
